The merit of successfully maintaining the ideals of character and fine service, as well as high scholarship is rewarded by election to The Honor Society. A charter was granted to Norfolk High School in June, 1922, by the National Honor Society. Since that time sixty-six persons have been elected to membership from the upper twenty-five per cent of the graduating classes. The purpose of its members is the fostering of high character and scholarship. No pictures have been taken of those persons elected during the past two years, but the 1928 Milestone Staff are making arrangements for those elected for the year 1927-1928 to have their pictures taken so that the 1928 Milestone may have a photo of this honor group. Members for the last two years are: 1925-1926 Earl Adamson Alice Rasmussen Clarence Bauermiester Frances Robinson Margaret Eckles Dorothy Ruess Betty Hinson Leola Uecker Eva Jacobs Lyle Weatherholt Mildred Lulow 1926-1927 Marvin Barritt Evelyn Malm William Butterfield Helen Malm Wilhelmine Haley Bernard Ptak Helen Harrison Dick Scott Mona Humphrey Kathryn Stitt Ida Kruech Hillard Strange Kathleen Kulp Dorothy Verges +•--------- sJ'Ailestonzj : 1928 —-----— • —+ Seniors • • • • IiOriSK AUSTADT flfnrral CouiKf, CSkrl BaMrrM (1-2 3).

Once in a Blue Moon’ , “hast of the Mohicans.’ The Senior Class History On September 7, 1924, a group of “green”, proud, and freshly-laundered Freshmen, walked hopefully and solemnly into N. H. S. peering with anxious eyes at everything and everybody, and smiling pathetically at their “elders”. Things went pretty badly “them days”. John Doe was no teacher at all—301 seemed to be on first floor—sometimes tears, naughty, salty tears ran down all sorts of cheeks—and fingers caught in lockers. Then—“There will be a Freshman class meeting in the Auditorium”. Ahem—aren’t we important! Our illustrious brother, Harry Salter, became president; our jolly, fat classmate, Jack Maylard, became our vice president; with “Judge” Donner as our money and minute keeper. As Sophomores we had “lotsa fun”. That spring we had a picnic out in the canyons. This was the day Henrietta rolled down a cliff and found herself in a waterless and muddy place below; Marvin Best played the hero. Stanley Donner was president, “Lindy” Ockerman, vice president, and Kathryn Stitt was our secretary and treasurer. When we were admitted to the Junior Ciass—that was a distinction, and we had distinctive times. The Junior-Senior Hare and Hound Race was ideal, although a rather stiffening and callousing process. Of course, the Seniors won, but we enjoyed ourselves immensely—the refreshments, too! We had a skating party at King’s park, at which Mr. Drummond’s teaching principles failed to make Miss Durland learn how to roller skate. We gave a play called “Babs”, in which Geraldine Gillis was star actress. The personnel of the class officers was as follows: Warren Montgomery, president; Robert Tiuex, vice president; Roma Steinmeyer, secretary and treasurer. The climax of that year of festivities was the Junior-Senior Banquet held in Hotel Norfolk. We were all dressed up, and had a wonderful time dancing, eating, and listening to Mr. Drummond and Miss Sanders sing. And now! Seniors! In the fall, Bus Scott was elected president; Paul Elsasser, vice president; Roma Steinmeyer, secretary; and Delorea Fleming, treasurer. Later in the year, at the first of the new semester, “Judge” Donner became our leader, Bruce McGrane our second ditto, Eunice Hansen our dues collector, and Marjorie Bisbee our bookkeeper. Then came the Hare and Hound contest again, and we won. We will admit it was rather uncomfortable hiding in those concrete things. If it hadn’t been for brother Harry S. encouraging the rear, we wouldn’t have won! We had a party, too! We went to Pierce and witnessed the basket-ball game, and then came back to the gym for treats. On March 28th we were mixed a little in the Junior-Senior Mixer. Everything was mixed—clothes, especially. We wore the clothes of fools! On another day the underclassmen greeted each other with, “the Seniors are missing” and thus announced our Sneak day. Slouch Day beamed brightly upon us in our gay paraphernalia, which, although slightly out-of-date and reasoning, added to the merriment of the occasion. We will admit we felt different—even the Freshies had to laugh—but it was a matter of “diplomacy” and not of action. The Junior-Senior banquet put us back into our natural clothes, and we went to enjoy the delicious food, and clever wit. The pinnacle of our high school careers was reached upon graduation. But we remember to remind ourselves that we only go out of school life to take up other responsibilities in life’s school. We leave N. H. S. with most fond memories and we will always think of her as the pleasant source of our many hopes and ambitions. ♦c ®[ c_yM ilestomu : 1928 HJH + Senior Class Will In May, when flowers bloom, and skies are blue, the monster, Grad Uation descends upon N. H. S. to capture the Seniors of 1928, and place them in different paits of the world, therefore, making it necessary to make our last will and testament, while we are sound in mind and body. So we will bequeath our most cherished treasurers to those we love, and deem it necessary to leave the following gifts, abilities, and other properties to our fellow classmates. Stanley Donner, our begoggled leader, begs that his “specs” and wit go to Reuben Margolis. To Jimmie Orr goes the athletic managership which our vice president, Paul El-sasser, leaves.

Lois and Lenore Wetzel will their sisterly love to Henry and Renata Rowaldt, respectively. Lucille Wood and Opal Tonner gladly leave. Donald Barkhuff leaves his accomplishment of walking out of school any one period of the day to Mr. Shook. Oh, don’t mention it! Melva Dixon will have to start looking around, as Elmer leaves. Sorry, Melva. Henry Deines lovingly bestows that first period vacation, everyday, to Mr. Sahl-strom. Elizabeth Peters leaves her graceful carriage to Jack Watson. Elizabeth Maurer and Mary Roberts transmit their problems grades to any of Mr. Smith’s victims, who wish them. Bradford Crane leaves his horse laugh to Helen McKinnon. Elton Recroft takes his jitney with him. Lorene Fleming begs that Marion Ploehn have her lady-like manners. Jean Watson earnestly leaves her coquettishness, and eye-rolling talent to anyone who can do it as well as she. We have a secret to tell. Irene Wagner leaves for Pennsylvania, soon. Ask her why. Leon Vilmur says she wants Marion Strom to have her tresses. Willard Braasch would like to leave his car, but his Papa won’t let him. George Grim says that his place in the Ice Cream Factory' might have gone to “Tiny”, but he wants it himself. Wayne Johnson confers his “girl” to Thurl Ravenscroft. Dick Wright says he won’t leave a thing—he has worked for all he has accomplished. Caroline Udey,' Leora Banta, Frieda Bossard, and Una Banta leave N. H. S. to teach unruly youngsters such as John Shafer, and Maynard Manske. +—•• ---------------------------We o VI ilestone : 1928 Marjorie Bisbee leaves her driving lessons to her understudy, Willa Kriz.

Robert Peterson is going, but he said he wanted everyone to keep away from Lucille. Beware!

Dale Snyder leaves his place and his toots to someone else. Jesse Beaton is too engrossed. But Wilma is leaving, too. Myron Christofferson leaves his decorative sweater in his locker. First come, first served! William Crane and Gerhardt Nordwig leave their matched wits to Gerald Schula and Frances Denny. Dolores Hedrick leaves her dress-making art to Inna Baker.

Elaine Mouritsen and Jack Lowry leave their special corner by 211, to Dan Ireland and Dorothea Yenney. Walter Brennan asks that Walter Ebsen, his namesake, be the recipient of his new “bike”. Ralph Cochran leaves Neva to the next unfortunate, how plucky he may be. Helen Reinhold implores that June Alice have her freckles. (You get the cream at Sheeler’s, June.) Jack Maylard “ain’t leavin’ anything, ’cause he is just sneakin’ out, and Margaret Howley is goin’ along.” Roma Steinmeyer releases her clutch on Warren long enough to grab her diploma. Elma Tatge goes to Madison—oh, well. Robert Truex leaves his good looks to “Red” Tannehill. Don Turk and Clifford Ransom are leaving together—we think so, anyway. Marcella Mason leaves her pull with the office, her place in 211, and her art of roaming halls to Charlotte Crane. Mildred Fischer proclaims that Catherine Ebsen should have her sweet smile. Clyde Fitch wills his athletic honors to his “steady”. Find out who she is! Floyd Fye is admired by Miss Kauffman, but Lester Manthe wishes she would like him, too. He’s being overworked. Dorothy Goodell takes her fiddle with her. Catherine Granfield and Mabel Mueller will their perfect teeth to anyone who uses tooth-paste. Lenora Gummus gives Marion Lack her green blazer. Change of color! Ruth King leases her place in the Epworth League play to Muriel Clarke, as leading lady. Two good friends, Frieda Schroeder and Irene Kirschmeier, leave N. H.

Lysle Marotz leaves his wonderful clothes to anyone who can afford them. Dick Matzke’s motto, “Say it with flowers”, goes to Guy Slaughter, being that Earl is leaving, and Helen is all alone. Martin Mayer, the boy wonder, is leaving so Neil can have a chance to rest from recitations that have been so exhaustive, recently. Harold Michaelson wills his errors in grammar to Miss Koch. They’re a lot easier to say!! Victor Northouse wants all he has accomplished. He needs it, too. Lula Pufahl wills her Hadar residence to Leo Skalowsky, so that he may practice installing furnaces. All prescriptions for hair tonics, etc., are Arnold Schurr’s gifts to Mr. Sahlstrom. Mr. Shook can have the rest. Mildred Shull thinks her secretarial duties ought to be Marjorie Blakeman’s joy. Nellie Cowles, Malinda Ehricks, Ruth Eppler, and Marie Gadekin leave their distinctive abilities to anyone who can attain them. But Esther Jacobs, Lillian Kell, and Ceciiia Kent and Julia Marr take their “sedatenesses” with them. Vernon Linn, Frances Numberg, Orville Powell, and Walter Iiosacker grant their hopes and ambitions to those who can’t think. To the faculty goes Rueben Uecker’s athletic honors, Harold Uecker’s official duties, Irma Small’s talents, Leona Schwanebeck’s fountain pen, and Louise Alstadt’s smile. Louis Roscoe says he’s coming back. And last, but not least, our prominent orator, Joe Stowe, says he is leaving with his best teacher; however, he w'ants his skill in raising side-burns to be Allan Burk-hardt’s life work, whether it be in Congress or Stanton. We will, hereby to the Bowenites, anything they work for, or find lying around in the office that isn’t theirs. To the green ones of the flock, we heartily request that they invent their own schemes and parties; of course, if there is a new alibi that one of them has used to a good advantage, please hand it in to—oh, where will we put it? And now, to the middle tribe—you will have to work for yourselves, unless you think you can qualify to inherit the Seniors’ excellent ideas, yells, and Sneak Day. You must not take these for granted—but you would! (Signed) SENIOR CLASS OF ’28. (Witnessed) Kaiser Bill and Pussyfoot Johnson. O. M. L. ’28 E.

(A Junior) 4---- ——♦« ©[ ($c cTW ilestone-j : 1928 + Junior Class History In the fall of 1925 the annual movement from Junior High was begun, and for several weeks upperclassmen were bothered by typically “Freshman” inquiries. They soon showed, however, that there were peppy people among them, electing as officers, Jean Pasewalk, president; James Simpson, vice president; and Geraldine Shelley, secretary and treasurer. In 1926, they had become Sophomores, and as such proceeded to elect Dick Carrico, president; Connie Rice, vice president; Dan Ireland, secretary: and Irma Baker, treasurer. One successful party was held each semester, which was fully enjoyed by all present. Then, after the pleasures of vacation, in the fall of 1927, they returned, older and wiser, to take up the heavy cares and responsibilities of being Juniors. Their officers for the first semester were Dan Ireland, president; Tom Young, vice president; Leona Le Ray, secretary; and Margaret Walling, treasurer; while the next semester they elected Dean Bowen, president; John Shafer, vice president; June Alice McNabb, secretary; and Irma Baker, treasurer. As usual, they lost the Hare and Hound Race to the Seniors, but the excellent meal served afterwards, and the hopes for next year, helped make the disappointment less painful. On December 9, the class presented the annual Junior Class Play, “Mother Carey’s Chickens”, under the direction of Miss Koch. The Junior-Senior Mixer, held on March 28, proved a great success for all concerned. Those present were to be garbed as “fools”, and the idea was well carried out in the costumes seen. The Junior-Senior Banquet, another pleasing interclass social affair, was held on May 23. Many other activities were also indulged in by Juniors. A staff elected by the class put out a unique issue of the No-Hi-So, printed in the class colors, purple ink on white paper. In the interclass track meet, held April 5 and 6, the Juniors were second. The Norfolk Debate Team included a Junior, Leo Skalowsky. Nine Juniors took part in the District Academic contest at Wayne, April 14. About five of them won places, according to the report received when this article went to press. Margaret Ellen Walling and Thomas Young, both Juniors, are two of the group of singers chosen to represent Norfolk in the State Music Contest, held at Lincoln on May 4 and 5.

Operettas, contest, and such, kept the melodies floating from the auditorium during the entire year. February 16, “Pickles”, a musical comedy, was presented in conjunction with the Girls’ Glee Club, which proved to he as good as it sounds. Christmas season brought the beautiful Cantata, “The Christ Child”. “Freshies”, entirely by boys, helped make the Orpheum a success. Not only this, but certain members have entertained Woman’s Clubs, P. T. A. meetings, and have sung at various other organized meetings. Last, but not least, they go to Lincoln for the State Music Contest, and for a barrel of fun. £ ©[. JKilestoruu : 1928 T P Row: Marjorie Koerher. Jemi Wataon. I lelorm Hedrick. Mrlra Dixon.

Under his able coaching, both last year and this, the debaters surmounted a hitherto impossible obstacle and conquered the extemporaneous style of speaking. Because of his vast ability as a coach, our team now ranks among the foremost of the state. With only one member of last year’s team back, Coach Sinclair constructed a forensic trio which decisively defeated such teams as South Omaha and Omaha Tech. It is agreed by all that the loss of Mr. Sinclair next year will be almost irreparable. + 57 + w° lesions : 1928 ---- +• CAPTAIN JOE STOWE Joe Stowe, for the last three years, has been captain of the Norfolk Debate Teams. As the only experienced man on the squad this year, much credit for the earlier victories of the season is due to his successful leadership. As a logical and accurate thinker, he can be surpassed by few high school debaters. To a large measure, the success of the 1927-28 Debate season, can be attributed to his untiring effort, and accurate strategy as leader of N. H. S.’s Debate Team. This is the last year of Joe’s participation in N. H. S. Forensic activities. Be STANLEY DONNER While this is the first year that Stanley has won a letter in Debate, he was an active member on last year’s squad. Not only his friends of Norfolk High School, but also coaches and judges from other schools are agreed that his personality and quick wit, along with superior ability, as a debater, made of him one of the most effective speakers ever to appear with a Norfolk Debate Team. To fill this place that “Stan” leaves vacant by graduation, will indeed be difficult. ---c7Vl Hestons : 1928 • ■+ +— LEO SKALOWSKY Leo was on the squad last year, but it was only during this season that he debated with the first team. His development has been rapid, and upon him will rest the main burden of next year’s debate work. ee HARRY SALTER Like Stanley Donner, this was Harry’s first year of inter-scholastic debating. However, the effectiveness which he attained is remarkable, when considered in the light of the fact that this was also his first year on the squad. Along with Stowe and Donner, he will graduate this spring. —“3 e cTVI Hestons : 1928 —•+ Debate Squad The 1921 -28 Debate Season of Norfolk High School lias been very successful this year. The season opened with a victory over the alumni. The spirit of victory, which opened the season, continued throughout until the end, the team triumphing over those of Wavne, Columbus, Hartington, Oakland, Omaha Tech, South Omaha, Bristow, Bloomfield and Meadow drove. For the first time, since Debate has been a regular activity in N. H. S. the school spirit has been a decidedly boosting factor, a thing which is greatly appreciated by anyone taking part in any activity. This school spirit has proven itself to be valuable in other activities as well as in debate. It is hoped and expected that this greater school spirit will prevail again next year. 60 +— sJWilestontLj : 1928 Debate Review The Debate Season of Norfolk High School opened with a victory over the alumni on January 3. The Norfolk team was composed of Captain Joe Stowe, Stanley Donner and Harry Saiter, while the alumni team consisted of Ralph Grim, Bernard Ptak, and Cyril Weishaple. The debate was the first regular-alumni event to be held in Norfolk. The next debate was with Columbus, in which the affirmative team, composed of Leo Skalowsky, Stanley Donner and Captain Joe Stowe, triumphed over Columbus. Not a bit too much was anticipated in expecting Columbus to be a strong team. The negative team, composed of Harry Salter, Stanley Donner and Captain Joe Stowe, shortly afterward, triumphed over them by a unanimous decision. The next debate of the season was a no decision debate with Hartington, the affirmative team representing Norfolk. Oakland was the next opposing team for Norfolk. Oakland is recognized as one of the foremost debate teams in Nebraska. In a double header debate, our affirmative and negative teams both defeated Oakland by unanimous decisions, boosting up the Norfolk Debate Stock. The next debates of the season were at the Midland Debate Tournament, sponsored by Midland College, Fremont, at which our team triumphed over Omaha Tech and South Omaha. At this tournament, Norfolk was defeated by the Lincoln team, which was eliminated in the final debate of the regular tournament by Blair. In the consolation tournament, Norfolk was eliminated by Fremont in the final debate. The decision in each instance was 2-1. The District Debate Season opened on Wednesday, February 29, the Norfolk Affirmative Team defeating the Bristow Negative Team by a 3-0 decision. The second district debate was with Wayne in which the Norfolkans annexed another victory to their credit, the decision being 3-0. It was the decision of Professor Gilkinson, Debate Coach of Yankton College, which permitted N. H. S. to claim a victory over Bloomfield. The final debate of the season was with Meadow Grove, in which Norfolk not only triumphed again but won the District Debate Title, making them District Champions for the second time in three years. Every district debate was won by a unanimous dei ision. 80 Interclass Debates Forensic activities of N. H. S. in the last two years have been extended to a division new to the school—interclass debating. Under the direction of Coach Sinclair, the various Public Speaking classes have been divided into teams. These teams debated within their respective classes for the class championship. The class champions debated foi the interclass championship. As a result of this form of debating, interest in debate was increased greatly, many students acquiring a hitherto unknown knowledge of the subject. The interclass debates for the first semester were held on the question, Resolved: That a Junior College be established in Norfolk; the question for the second semester was, Resolved: The city manager foim of government should be adopted in Norfolk. ♦c= @[ c7W Hestons : 1928 ---- ■+ Declamatory Contest The Declamatory activities in N. H. S. started on March 1-2, when the local contests were held. Due to the influenza epidemic, the number of contestants was con-■ iderably smaller than anticipated, and postponement of the contest was necessary twice. In three contests the following people won places, the first place winner, earning the right to represent the high school at the Elimination Contests. Humorous—Helen McKinnon, first, with “The Pullman Dressing Room”; Winavee Justice, second, with “Jimmie Jones Studies Geography.” Dramatic—Bessie McGill, first, reading “The Soul of the Violin”; and Doreen Bland, second, with “God Remembers”. Oratorical—Joe Stowe, first, with “America, a World Power”; and Dean Bowen, second, with “English Treatment of Ireland”. Extemporaneous—Harry Salter, first; and Stanley Donner, second. The Elimination Contests were held at Newman Grove on March 23, but Norfolk’s contestants failed to place. 00 National and International Oratorical Contests The third Congressional District Contest was held in Norfolk on April 18, and all schools of this district were permitted to send contestants. Norfolk’s entry, Joe Stowe, won first place, and will enter the state contest at Omaha on April 27th, which is sponsored by the Omaha Bee News. The winner of the State Contest will go to Oklahoma City for the Divisional Contest, the winners of this contest will compete in the National Contest and also get a trip to Europe. cJVl lestoncj : 1928 — Top Row: Muriel (’lark.

The Romans fully enjoy their monthly meetings and especially the beautiful Christmas party at which every one received a gift. As customary, the fatted pig was the feature of the purple and white decorated banquet tables on the Ides of March when offerings were made to the gods and goddesses that they might carry these Romans happily and successfully through another year. Sresciat Scientia—“May knowledge increase”, being their motto, they are all up and coming students.

Most people would recognize these terms as analogous to the “Minutemen”, the organization which has in so fine a way fostered school spirit and pep. They have given their hearty support to the various teams and activities of Norfolk High School and through their efforts each has contributed his share to the successful year that has just elapsed. Among their various activities, this organization helped to make Jean Gros’ Marionettes a success, their motto being “A Ticket a Minute”. Let us hope that this organization may continue in its purpose during the next year. 05 ■+ + § ©[ c£Xe cyVlilestont: 1928 }§! —— Tor llow: Klixalicth Maurer. Inna Baker.

Girl Resei ves One of the first things on the school calendar this year was the Girl Reserve mem-bership party, to which every girl in High School was invited. Many of them decided io become a part of this organization which has come to be such a vital element in .he lives of girls in all parts of the world—girls whose purpose is “To find and give .he best”. The first semestei discussion theme was “Pioneer Trails”, and among che red letter events were Dad-Daughter Banquet, Christmas Pageant, and Christmas Party for poor kiddies. The second semester was called “Hobby Trails” and many clever ideas have been worked out successfully. Everyone remembers Heart Sister week and the nice luncheon at its close. Other important events on Girl Reserves Calendar are Mother-Daughter Banquet, Initiation, election of officers, installation, and Senior farewell. Girl Reserves are primarily an organization for the purpose of building ideals, but who can say that we have not had pep and enthusiasm and plenty of good times? And— Are we going to Camp Sheldon? Yes, w e are! +■ M©[ y .ilestoti«Lj : 1928 }' $?=§ ------------------ —•+ Top Row: Braest Yenney. F.ihvmd Rarn«ke. Mr. Smitli. Sponsor: Bradford Crane. Wayne Johnson. William Kdliolm. !� an Ireland.

Hi-Y At the beginning of the school year the Hi-Y was organized under the direction and leadership of Mr. ,J. G. Moore, general secretary of the Y. M. C. A. To begin with the membership was limited to twelve members, then, in order to make it more representative of the school, the membership was doubled and Mr. Smith was chosen High School sponsor. Early in the year the Hi-Y sponsored the annual “Father and Son” banquet. On November 25, 26, 27, the Hi-Y sent a representative delegation to the State-Wide Older Boys’ Conference at York, Nebraska. A feature of one of the meetings was a four-reel motion picture “The Testing-Ground”. The Hi-Y was most successful in sponsoring a “Find Yourself Week” in which the upper-classmen of N. H. S. were given the opportunity to learn the advantages of various businesses and professions from those men who practice them and know them best. +•— W? oMilestones : 1928 ]© £ + Top K« w: Kail Sl� u KoImti McCracken.

Boys’ Cooking Class The boys' cooking class is one of the most “different” classes ever conducted in the Norfolk High School. It is also one of, if not the first class of its kind, ever conducted in the state of Nebraska. The history of the class is short, the idea entering the minds of a group of boys at the beginning of the first semester. A petition was circulated among the boys the first week of school, and it was signed by twenty boys who began their study of the culinary arts two weeks later. The first few class periods were filled by comparatively simple lessons in the making of white sauce, cocoa and other ordinaries especially necessary in the preparing of vegetables and other common everyday foods. As the class progressed, the boys learned how to cook meats in several different ways, learned the location and names of different cuts of meats and received considerable practice in the preparing of miscellaneous desserts. A complete meal was served to the school board the last week of the first semester, and from all reports it was a decided success. Two short camping trips were taken during the semester, one to the thirteenth street bridge, and the other to Ray's Park. A fine meal, complete in every detail was prepared at Ray's Park. Miss Hyde, the instructor, proved to be a very good “boy”, on both trips. In fact, the splendid cooperation between the teacher and the boys was directly responsible for the great success of the class. The more difficult and exacting tasks of baking pies, cakes and bread, and making candy, was not undertaken until the last six weeks. + 69 + +----- @t We cTAilestone : 1928 ]g£ To.'

Since that time it has been a rapidly growing organization and today it has a membership of seventy-five. The purpose of this organization is to promote all types of sports for girls and to make possible wider participation in suitable athletic activities. The early fall sport is Soccor, followed by Punch Ball, Basketball, Baseball and Track. Thus affording a continuous round of athletics. Point system is used with the tnembership requirement of 100 points, 500 points for the “N” pin and 800 points for the Letter. For every addition 400 points, a chevron is awarded. 70 •+ —W? cTW ilestonaj : 1928 ! ?♦ + Typewriting Champion At the State Commercial Contest held in Hastings, Nebraska in April, 1927, Stella Reisbig won first place in the Novice Class, writing 69.9 words per minute. For the past three years the Underwood Typewriting Company has given the winner in this class a free trip to New York City to compete in the International Typewriting Contest—paying all expenses. In order to win this trip it is necessary that the contestant use an Underwood machine and must win first place in the State Contest with a speed rate of 50 or more words per minute. The International Typewriting Contest was held in New York City on October 17, and Stella was given the trip with all expenses paid. She, accompanied by Jean Zook, head of the Commercial Department of the Norfolk High School, left Norfolk on October 12. Stops were made in Omaha, Chicago and Buffalo, New York. In Chicago the contestants (from all states) were entertained by the Underwood Company. While in Buffalo a trip was made to Niagara Falls. The party arrived in New York on October 15 and remained there until the evening of October 19. In the International Contest, Stella won thirteenth place, writing 73 words per minute. There were fifty-six other contestants enrolled in this class. From New' York City the party w'ent to Washington, D. C. While there they were received at the White House by President Coolidge. From Washington the party went to Chicago, where they broke up—all going to their homes from there. + 71 + c($e c7VI ilestoncj : 1928 No-Hi-So Vol. X JUNIOR COLLEGE DREAM REALIZE! FOR 19.

The No-IIi-So is devoted to the interests of the Junior High School as well as the Senior High and is dedicated to the interests and the advancement of all school activities. It is the students’ newspaper, and has been published every other Monday during the school term. The staff members secure their positions by faculty appointment in the spring and work with the supervision of a faculty sponsor. The first semester of this year a Journalism class was oi’ganized from which No-Hi-So received several fine contributions. During the second semester all work was done in outside hours. Next year there will be two semesters of Journalism and staff members will be chosen from the Journalism class. This will give opportunity for better organized work. The financial success of the paper is made possible only through its subscribing and advertising membership. The staff believes that this year’s publication has succeeded financially largely through the liberal patronage of the business men of Norfolk. The A. L. Killian Company has given the No-Hi-So the highest number of inches of advertising, and the Junior class has given the highest number of subscriptions. The No-Hi-So staff has persistently tried to give N. H. S. a better paper. Some of the things they succeeded in doing were (1) reducing the cost of circulation by mailing; (2) making issues more attractive by such special features as Class issues, colored paper, colored ink, Mender of Questions, Student Opinion, pictures and cuts. The staff is grateful to The Norfolk Daily News, our printers, for their helpful suggestions and readiness at all times to help improve the appearance of the paper. To all who have contributed in any way towards making the No-Hi-So a better school paper the staff extends thanks.

Talich —We ( Milestone-; : 19 2d -+ The Milestone The strongest evidence which can be given 0f the work that the Milestone staff of 1928 has done is, of course, between the covers of this book; and this evidence the staff submits without apology. As to the method of doing that work, however, some explanation might be necessary or at least advisable. The staff consisted of ten students, chosen by the faculty, in the spring, for their ability in the specialized work necessary. They worked together with one faculty advisor. All of the work has been done in outside hours except that which was necessary to be done near the completion of the book. While the evidence of the amount of work done is within this book, it is quite probable that not a tenth of the readers realize how much work is actually represented. The long-continued planning of every page, the responsibilities in canvassing for subscriptions, the unpleasant task of making collections, the still more unpleasant job of running countless errands, the telephoning, letter-writing—none of this is evident, but it was all done. There are undoubtedly errors in the publication of the Milestone. If you are disappointed in the annual, if you are hurt and consider yourself wronged, if this annual doesn’t conform to your ideas of what an annual should be, if you find misspelled names, or overturned letters, or poor pictures, or any of the other one thousand and one things that may be wrong—believe that the staff is sorry. For the fine qualities that make the 1928 Milestone different from other Milestones, or better, the staff wants to thank all who have cheerfully, promptly, and liberally contributed their ideas and work toward making this a fine record of the year’s events. To the business men the staff extend appreciations for the large part they played in making the book a financial success.

H. S.’s chain of organizations. The aspiring Spaniards began by electing Ralph Cochran, president; Lela Reed, vice president; and Dale Snyder, secretary and treasurer. With some parties and many meetings held during the first semester, this was a pretty busy group. They found time, however, in January, to elect Bradford Crane, president; Catherine Granfield, vice president; and Victor Northouse, secretary and treasurer. This organization is constantly growing and has held two initiation ceremonies this year. The purpose of the club is to improve the speaking and writing vocabularies of its members. This is done by Spanish games, word plays, elementary conversation, and memorization of verses. The aim has been well maintained for two successive years, and Spanish students of next year should plan on improving themselves still more in their grasp of the language by becoming enthusiastic members of the Circulo Espanol. ©e Boys’ Leaders Club This club was organized in 1926. The purpose of this club is to promote a closer relationship between leaders of various classes, who all work for the common interest of the Department of Physical Education. Membership is limited to active leaders only. The club has held monthly meetings since its organization. A typical leaders club meeting includes an organized athletic contest, shower baths, a good meal and a business meeting. At the business meetings leaders are given an opportunity to report any service they have rendered for the Department of Physical Education, since the preceding meeting. Due recognition is given for this work. Officers of the club are, Marvin Best, president; Harold McDonald, vice president; and Harold Lau, secretary and treasurer. The leaders who attend the meetings regularly are: Harold Lau, Jacob Miller, James Orr, Paul Gardner, Harold McDonald, Richard Shook, Martin Mayer, Glenys Eberly, Raymond Truex, Isadore Margolis, Elmer Vanderman, Edward Schmiedeke, Marvin Best, Willard Harrison, William Skiff, Irvin Jones, Norris Dewes, Harry Kennerson, Charles Terrant, Raymond Cook, Dean Mitchell, Charles Hulac, Thurl Ravenscroft. cJVli estoHCj : 1928 }:• § ■+ Coach Harshbarger It was a great day two years ago when Don Harshbarger came to Norfolk High to take up the work of Coach. To him goes the honor of building up good teams out of green material. Coach not only knows every sport from A to Z, but he can demonstrate every point. Coach is a lover of sports and you could say that his motto is: “Clean Play”. Coach has a very pleasing personality and is obliging, always willing to give help to anyone, and it is because of his excellent character that he is liked by all and loved by many. N. H. S. appreciates the wonderful work Coach has done to build up good teams for Norfolk High. ------cTVI ile$tone : 1928 ---- l -fl to Right: Je� « Heaton. t'owh H a rxh banter. «'ob Staiislierry, A � t. t’oarli Halim. Bob Ilorrorka. Jess Beaton was elected Football Captain for 1927 and he filled the position excellently. He was liked by all, and he never knew when he was licked; all these traits helped him to fill the shoes of Captain. We will miss Jess next year. HARSHBARGER—COACH Cob Stansberry—Cob was captain of the Basketball Team and he made good at it. Like Jess, he never knew when he was licked. Cob was an ex cellent player and knew all points of the game, which helped him as Captain. Cob not only was able to fill the shoes of captain excellently, but he also made the All-State team. ASSISTANT COACH DAHM Coach Dahm came to N. H. S. this year and ably assisted Coach Harshbarger in all of the sports. He took charge of all the Second team work and assisted there in excellent manner. Coach Dahm has been liked by many because of his willingness to help with anything and also because of his readiness to have a good time. Bob Horrocks—Bob was Captain of that memorable track team of 1927. Although he was injured, Bob made an excellent Captain and was always working for the good of the team. Bob graduated and we miss him. 78 ----c($€ c7W ilestonej : 19'dH fjjN- •+ Coach started the season with three letter men and all of these men had to be shifted to new positions which resulted in making an entirely new team. He also tried, as much as possible, to use men who were returning for the 1928 season. Injuries cut the squad considerable during the season, Stansberry was out of two games, Manke out of three, Barneke out of one, Williams out of one, Ireland out of two; in the Neligh game three regulars were out and Yenney, Fitch and McGrane were injured. Considering the experienced material and the heavy schedule the boys did well, and we have nine letter men returning for next year. Sixty-seven men reported for football, which is the largest number to ever report, and we expect more next year. ♦K©[ We c7W i estoncj : 1928 •+ +—■ 0 First Team e 80 + -----“®e cTW ilestontj : 192H ----- DICK CARRICO, “Kiki”, Capt. Elect. 130 lbs. Little Dick was shifted to an end when the Coach needed ends and he filled the gap in a creditable manner. At Lincoln big Suter, 180 lb. fullback, while covering Dick, made this statement: “I got this peanut”. But he will have to admit that it was the liveliest peanut he ever saw. We expect much of our next year’s captain. JESS BEATON, “Jess”, Capt.—End 135 lbs. (2nd Mid-State League, Honorable-Mention State, All N. E. Nebr.) Good old Captain Jess! Never has Norfolk had a harder worker, all for Norfolk, that’s Jess. A clever tackier, a wonderful receiver, and a fair blocker, are his assets. Everyone liked Jess as a captain at the beginning and close of the season, which speaks well for him. Jess made several spectacular plays: 75 yard run for a touchdown at Tilden, snagged two long passes at Fremont which resulted in touchdowns, caught three passes in succession against the mighty Lincoln team. Just too bad that he graduates, but he has been an inspiration to under-graduates. ED. BARNEKE, “Lucky”—Half 155 lbs. Battling “Lucky”, always at the right spot on defense. Never was there a more conscientious worker, a good open field runner, good receiver, fierce, vigorous tackier. If everyone tried as hard as “Lucky”, Norfolk High would always shine. We admire you “Lucky” and will miss you next year. +■ 81 c7W ilestone : 1928 — ROBERT STANSBERRY, “Cob” Full—170 lbs. (2nd Team Mid-State League, Honorable Mention on State All N. E. Nebr.) Injuries also kept Cob out of several games; he was out of the Columbus game which we lost. He is a good kicker and passer, a fine tackier and a wonderful open field blocker. “Let men be known by their deeds” is his motto on the field. We will miss Cob next year as he has been a mainstay for two years. NED LULOW—Quarter 125 lbs. Midget in size but a regular tank in action. The boy who realized that science would win for him and made good. At Lincoln one could see Ned occasionally even though he was outweighed by 60 lbs. Ned is proof that size plays a minor part in athletics. Ned galloped 60 yards for a touchdown against Hartington. His first and last year for us, but take a lesson from Ned, Brains dominate. WAYNE JOHNSON, “Wayne”—Half 155 lbs. “Old reliable” should be his name. Injuries slowed up Wayne considerable but it would take a broken leg to stop him. A wonderful defensive man, a good kicker and a deadly blocker. He ran 80 yards for a touchdown in the Hartington game. We need more boys like Wayne, modest, moral, earnest, and courteous. We w ill miss this blonde lad next year. +■ 82 ♦e [ C($e cTW ilestone- : 19 2H ■+ DAN IRELAND, “Dan”—Half 138 lbs. Dan was used at half and made some good gains, and did some clever passing. Notre Dame has fighting football teams; Dan is Irish, and he doesn’t run down their reputation. Dan has a real brain and he uses it, cool all the time. He will be a real backfield man next year, and we expect much of him. PAUL OCKERMAN, “Lindy”—Half 130 lbs. Our speed demon! When we went to Lincoln, Coach didn’t want to take a chance with some of the regulars, so he used Paul, and big Suter didn’t scare him at all. Another example of a little boy making good. He graduates. BOB TRUEX, “Bob”—Half 138 lbs. Another boy who waited too long. He didn’t come out until his Senior year and one cannot learn football in that time. A real battler and too bad he graduates. +• —•+ 83 - ■-♦£ $!{ c7W Hestons : 1928 BRUCE McGRANE, “Bruce”—Center 155 lbs. His first year “on the varsity” but he filled the gap at center and did some good passing. He, too, is a battler, and is Irish, and woe be unto the opponent that riles him. His spirit and cool head aided the green line a great deal. He graduates. ART WILLIAMS, “Art”—Center 170 lbs. Art was injured in the Lincoln game and could not play against Ne-ligh, which didn’t help us any. Art uses his hands on defense, as a Keefe, which makes him feared by all. Next year he should knock ’em right and left. A very good passer, seldom makes a bad one. He has one more year to battle for the Maroon and White. ED MANKE, “Tornado”—Tackle 150 lbs. Injuries slowed up Ed and he was finally kept out of the Neligh game due to these. Ed gets fat on rough football and may we have more like him. Football isn’t any place for a sissy, especially if the Golden Tornado is opposing him. More power to you next year, Ed. +■ •I— -------«§ £:■( cTVl Hestons : 19ltd ERNEST YENNEY, “Ernie”, Tackier 175 lbs. (All N. E. Nebr. Team). The big, speedy, deadly tackier who generally made his opponent go the other way. Always one of the first men down under punts and kick off. A bad Charlie and an injured nose kept him out of several games. He played a real game against Neligh although handicapped by a nose guard. He should make going tough for all opponents next year. CLYDE FITCH, “Clyde”—Tackle 155 lbs. Clyde knew all the plays from any position, and was our general utility man. A battler isn’t enough to call him, he was more. Just too bad he didn’t weigh more. Clyde played his best game against Lincoln, they came his way a few times, then decided the other way was best. All credit to Clyde, who graduates. PAUL RESTING, “Paul”—Guard 157 lbs. A new man at the game, but a good one. Most of his work was done under a pile, but he was always covering his territory. Paul likes nothing better than to be smacking someone for keeps. He has two more years of football and All-State should be his goal. We know he will be the terror of N. E. Nebr. next year. —' ---------------- § Sj|j[ W cyWilestone : 1928 ]§3 +- --------------- •+ LYLE ROTTLER, “Tiny”—Guard 200 lbs. A battler when in, handicapped by age, but another year will make him a feared man. Tiny is a marker and work will accomplish much. He has two more years to play with Norfolk. LEO SMITH, “Leo”—Guard 150 lbs. A Freshie making his letter speaks loud enough. A very good offensive man, always opening nice holes. This boy has three more years and no one knows what he may do. A record for other Freshmen to shoot at. BERNARD LOGERWELL, “Bern.v” End—150 lbs. A new man at the game, but a comer. One of our best pass nabbers, a good tacker and a fair blocker. He will be with us next year and we expect much from him. —-•£ £'( We cJVUlestontL; : 1928 — •+ BRADFORD CRANE, “Brad”, Guard 180 lbs. Green at the game but a scrapper. Too bad he didn’t start when a Freshman and he would have made a real football player. He graduates. VICTOR NORTHOUSE, “Vic” Center—135 lbs. The most ferocious little fellow we ever saw. “Spirit” is his motto. He battled against the Lincolnites, as a veteran and it was his first “varsity” game. He graduates.” 87 c($e c7W ilestoutLj : 1928 Football Schedule First Team Norfolk............19 Tilden ....

First Team Coach started the season with five letter men and a squad of promising Second Team men. He had the material for a winning team and he made the best of it. The team this year has only been surpassed by one other Basketball team which Norfolk has had and that year they didn’t have such a stiff schedule. This year one of our players, “Cob” Stansberry, was selected All-State Guard and only one other Basketball squad has had this particular honor. The team went through the season with only five defeats out of nineteen games. They went to the Wayne Tourney and lost in the final game. They then went o the State Tourney with the loss of one man, Ned Lulow, who had a broken shoulder bone, and one injured man, “Cob” Stansberry. This is what the Omaha World-Herald says of the team: “Norfolk was in only one game during the tourney, but the work of this team was a bright spot in the tourney play. It will be remembered that Norfolk gave the Champion, St. Paul, its warmest argument, forcing them to an extra period to win”. Toward the end of the season Coach organized a Freshman team and sent vhem to the Grand Island Tournament, and they certainly made good. Although they lost their first game, one of the players, Ralph Eldridge, was placed on the Freshman All-Tourney Team. Watch these boys work in future years. The Second team, made up of under-classmen, enjoyed a very successful season, winning five out of nine games played. From the Second team, Coach found some very good material for the team next year. 4 ©| cTVI ilestone- : 1928 COB STANSBERRY Our captain was one of Norfolk’s best, a great guard is putting it mild, a real leader, and a student are some of his accomplishments. Cob was placed at guard on the “All State Team”. The Lincoln Star has the following to say about him: “Stansberry of Norfolk was in one game during the tourney, but his work in this contest was a bright spot in the tourney play. The Norfolk guard almost single-handed, stopped the St. Paul offense, the Saints being forced to go an extra period to win. His defensive play held St. Paul to a pair of field goals during the first half, while he breezed up the court to score 5 points. He played the entire game with one arm taped.” He graduates but he has set an example for the Norfolk guards. ART WILLIAMS Our captain elect was not satisfied on the bench so he improved and played center part of the time. He will be a real inspiration to the team next year because spirit is 90% of a team and he has it. He will be carrying a big load next season as only two letter men return, but who could do it better? We will tell you more about Art next year if he plays as he did at State tournament against St. Paul. WAYNE JOHNSON For two years Wayne has been our old reliable. Not so flashy, but the machine would not function unless he was in. The cleanest player on the floor, he knows basketball from A to Z. And plays it that way. His work was very consistent which is something desired by all Coaches but found in few players. He, too, graduates, but we are proud to have had Wayne represent us on the court. +■ ffie cTVl Hestons : 1928 --- ----------h “LUCKY”BARNEKE He seems to like close games, because the hotter the game the faster he went. His only trouble was trying too hard. Lucky has no enemies, an all round basketball player would describe him. He played his best game at Albion, scoring nine points in three quarters. He enjoyed beating Pierce, his former home town—35-10. We want more boys like Lucky representing us. NED LULOW Midget Ned broke a shoulder at Wayne which probably cost us the tournament. Wayne was his hot shot, he made 13 points against Wayne High on the latter’s court and had the confidence which makes it possible to repeat. A very clever pivoter and a good shot. Ned was a big favorite with the crowd because of his cat like movements. Another boy who battled for Norfolk High is graduating. BRUCE McGRANE Bruce was never out jumped and was our high scorer. A good man to follow in shots and a dead eye from the foul line. He played his best games during the early part of season averaging eleven points for the first five games. Bruce entertained the basketball squad at his home on his 18th birthday. Another good man graduates. + +• “®e c VI ilestoncj : 1928 DAN IRELAND Dan might be called our live saver. When Ned was injured at Wayne he stepped in and made two baskets which won our first tournament game for us. Dan is a heady player, being a balancing cog in any machine. He played the entire game against St. Paul as a veteran. We know Dan will be a valuable man next year. Who could keep from admiring such a clean-cut athlete as Dan ? GEORGE GRIM Faithful George, some players are guards or forwards or maybe centers, but George was any or all of them. A heady, clean and clever player. In two different games, when our Captain left on account of too many fouls, George took his place and the machine went on as usual. It is a pleasure to see little George take the ball off the bankboard and leave the six-footers wondering where it went. A fine boy and one we are glad to see wearing the much coveted N. He, too, graduates. ERNEST YENNEY An honest worker but too much football to please the officials. “Erny” played a good game against Columbus, and at his former home, Fremont, he enjoyed that game very much. A hard worker at all times, and he has no enemies. He is a three sport letter man. + K@[ “®e c7Vl ilestontLj : 1928 ■+ Basketball Schedule First Team 1927-28 Norfolk 28 Norfolk 32 Norfolk .......................35 Norfolk .......................21 Norfolk .......................35 Norfolk .......................17 Norfolk .......................29 Norfolk .......................29 Norfolk ...................... 13 Norfolk .......................20 Norfolk .......................29 Norfolk 18 Norfolk 25 Norfolk ..................... 12 Madison..................... 10 Battle Creek ................. 17 Pierce .................„.....10 Alumni ..................... 15 Pilger .................,.....17 Neligh ....................... 3 West Point 17 Wayne ....................... 12 Havelock ................... 14 Fremont ......................17 Albion ....................... 8 Randolph .....................27 Columbus .................. 31 Beatrice ..................... 10 Wayne Tournament Norfolk . 2 Howells .

When the first call for Track Candidates was issued, in 1927, Coach was without the services of his “four horsemen”, and he had to build up practically a new team. The best track team that Norfolk has ever had was built and they made Norfolk known in every section wThere they visited. The 1927 squad won more cups and medals than any of its predecessors. We had some of the best star performers ever produced in this school. One of the men broke a state record and a school recoid. Here are a few press remarks concerning the team: Lincoln Paper: “To the flashy, Jerry Allen, 18 year old Norfolk High School athlete, goes the distinction of having shattered the Nebraska State record in the 440 yd. run, the midget sprinter traveling the distance in 51.8 sec. Allen clipped off 1-5 of a second from the record established by Ostegard of Gothenburg in 1923”. Robert Young, versatile Norfolk athlete, made the best time in 220 yd. Low-Hurdles in the preliminaries, bounding over the barriers in 28 seconds. Sioux Falls Paper: “Norfolk, Nebraska, High School more than did its share to uphold the honor of the Cornhusker State, winning first in the Mile and Half Mile relays, and third in the Medley”. + 95 + +- ‘8?e yVl lestomLj : 1928 •+ The following men fulfilled the requirements and were awarded the official track “X” in the 1927 Track Meet.

Gym-Night is the largest event which the Physical Education department puts forth, there being more than 500 boys and girls participating. Gvm-Night is held to show the public just what the physical Education Classes are accomplishing, and to give a practical demonstration of the large variety of activities that the pupils take part in. Some of the feature numbers this year were the Tumbling, Apparatus Demonstrations and the Patriotic Marching drill. +— -•- « { ‘®e c7W ilestone-j : 1928 •+ Yell Leaders This year we had three real “peppy yell leaders’’: “Long- Tom”, “Chubby Patsy” and “Lightning Dean”. The pep a school has is determined by the yell leaders and Norfolk had it this year. These boys organized their work before going on the stage, and, therefore, put over their program in a snappy manner. The Coach says that he cannot say enough for these boys; a team plays as the spirit runs, and the yell leaders control the spirit. These boys not only pushed athletics but all school activities. They will be with us next year. PAUL ELSASSER Paul, Our Manager “Pauly! Pauly!” is the athletes’ cry; and Pauly’s answer is always, “Sure, come on up”, or “Yes, here it is”, or maybe “If you w'ould try putting them in your locker, you wouldn’t lose them”, or “You better let me fix that toe”. Pauly knows the athletic department from end to end, due to his willingness and three years’ of experience. The Coach says: “Pauly could coach a team better than many paid ones, not mentioning how he could take care of them”. Pauly is not only the true friend of every Norfolk athlete but of every student in the system. We know that Paul’s training will be of benefit to him in later life, because he has learned to never forget, and to sacrifice for others. All hats off to Pauly! Our Athletic Manager! ! +• 101 •+ +— ---o ■+ Scholarship Trophy Mr. Wenke of Stanton, in behalf of the Nebraska University “N” Club, presented the High School Scholarship Trophy to Norfolk High on December 2. Mr. Wenke said that the University of Nebraska was attempting to promote a higher class of athletes by encouraging clean sportsmanship and scholastic standing in the class room. In winning the trophy, Norfolk athletes ranked not only higher than the athletes of other schools but their average was higher than the average of the student body of Norfolk High School. Some people say that when a boy goes out for athletics he lets his studies drop below the average, but the winning of the trophy this year proves that Athletes not only keep their studies up to the average but they rank as high or higher than the school as a whole. Appreciation '1 he Athletic Teams of Norfolk High wish to extend their hearty thanks to the student body, faculty, pep band, cheer leaders, townspeople and pep clubs for the excellent support they have given the teams of Norfolk this year. Never in the history of the school has so much interest been shown by the members of Norfolk High and the teams. Whether it was in defeat or in victory the rooters stood to cheer and showed that they were with the team until the end. +-------------------------- N@[ ‘®e cTVI ilestonc-j : 1928 ] S ----------------------------+ Calendar • • • • • 4k _ NHS September 6.

It’s a sure sign of spring when a Scotchman throws his Christmas tree away. “—Yes, they have five children. Half of them are boys”. “Get out! That’s impossible”. “—and the other half are boys, too”. All was still in 301 and an air of subdued quiet hung over the entire assembly. It was one of Mr. Harsh-barger’s famous study hall periods and he had just finished giving his very decided opinions of students wTho left their seats and wandered around the assembly without permission. Not a sound was heard as the quaking students returned to their books. Satisfied that all would be well Mr. Harshbarger fastened his attention on the attendance list. He did not hear the door open nor did he see the small figure which slipped in and navigated in the direction of the dictionary. Looking up he was astonished to see someone leaning intently over the dictionary on the opposite side of the room. “Did you or did you not hear what I just said about people leaving their seats?” No answer. But the figure at the dictionary straightened up inquiringly. Mr. Harshbarger’s jaw dropped and an expression not exactly intelligent crept over his face for you see—he knows Miss Vickers when he sees her.

Shortly he appeared. “Was he your brother?” asked the caretaker. “Yes,” came the sorrowful answer. “But how did you identify him?” The man wiped away a tear as he chokingly replied, “He was deaf.” An engineer surveying the right of way for the proposed railroad, was talking to a fanner. “Yes,” he said, “the line will run right through your barnyard.” “Well,” answered the farmer, “Ye can do it if ye wan, but I’ll be jiggered if I’ll git up in the night just to open the gates every time a train comes through.” Soft Dater: “And now a kiss?” Hard Dater: “Help yourself; they’re around my mouth somewhere.” Billie: “Do you play on the piano ?” Willie: “Not when Mother’s around —she’d be afraid I’d fall off.” Gerald S.: “Jerome’s lost his hat again.” Dean B.: “How do you know?” Gerald: “I can’t find mine.” Ernest Yenney: “Is it true that exercise will kill germs?” Cob S.: “Yes, but it’s tough teaching the darn little things to exercise.” (His wife reading): “It says here that they have found a long-legged sheep in the Himalaya Mountains that can run 40 miles an hour.” Her Hubby: “Well, it would take a lama like that to follow Mary nowadays.” . •+ 0.

Carroll B.: “Someone told me your picture looked like me today and I kicked him”. Ed Brush: “Thank you”.

And so they went into the forest. The humorist told a joke near a hickory tree and immediately after the tree broke in two and fell. Another joke felled a maple tree. He stood near a stately tree and told a joke but the tree remained standing. He told another and still the tree remain- ed. Finally he became disgusted and the two left the forest. About 4 o'clock a great report came from the forest, and hurrying to the scene they found the tree broken in two and part of it lying on the ground. It was an English walnut tree.

Her cheeks were cooled by the dew; her legs were wet with it. Exuburant springs throbbed and pressed about her, soft breezes caressed her; odoriferous flowers sent up sweet smells to her nostrils; all was perfection—except—that she was deserted, alone. Stella sighed. Why had she been left there in the fields at midnight? The wretch! And already she was cold; nothing to shelter her, no one to care for her, deserted, alone. She had been led astray and forgotten. Then Stella got mad. She rose from her grass bed, shook herself, and began to bawl—and bawl and bawl. The rank injustice of it all, to l e left on such a night as this. And, furthermore, what kind of a cow did that farmer think Stella was? “N” Tune—“Idolizing” Fighting for our High school is all that seems worthwhile, We’ll win the game We’ll make some pep and rally with our smile, N for Norfolk, and N for energy, Together they will win that game, We put the “N” in energy, We’re the Nergettes.
