4. THE ANNUAL PUBLICATION OF THE SENIOR CLASSES OF NORTH HIGH SCHOOL IN MINNEAPOLIS MINNESOTA VOL. 21 1930 IDA V. MANN Suggested to Eleanor Carling by a photograph of a teacher of the 1889 class DEDICATION T O IDA V. MANN We, the senior classes of 1930, dedicate this Polaris of Memories to Ida V. Mann, adviser of the January class, because of her untiring perseverance, her kindly guidance, and her memories of the early days at North which enrich her understanding of our daily problems. Suggested to Anne Hughes by a class room picture in the 1902 annual PREFACE This Annual of 1930, the Polaris of Memories, records the progress of North since its beginning in eighteen eighty-nine. It is presented, not only as a summary of the school s accomplishments during the past year, but also as a review of our present organizations and their relation to school life. Suggested to Doris Keonstedt by a kodak picture in the 1915 annual CONTENTS i. Administration II. Roster III. Clubs IV. Athletics V. Activities and Awards The sun sheds its soft splendor on the woodbine covered walls and garden of North High. Completed in 1896, this structure, on the present site of North high school, served until the fire in 191 3 destroyed all but the north wing and the still uncompleted auditorium. I The present North high building, completed in September, 1914, still serves an ever increasing senior high school student body. The new wing, added in January 1924, provides necessary facilities for study and recitation. lid Suggested to Edith Clausen by a 1930 Faculty member A D M I NISTRATION HISTORY OF NORTH HIGH THE early prospects of North arc best described by its first principal. John H. Greer, after his inspection in '88. “It seemed to me that a high school could never be developed where there was nothing in sight but woods, squirrels, and a number of cows leisurely drinking from the quiet waters of Todd's pond.” Prior to 1889, Old Central” was the only high school in the city. The first North classes were organized in 1887 in the old Franklin building. Later, they were held in the Lowell school, until the first North high was completed on the site of the present Logan school. On January 2. 1889. Mr. Greer, three teachers, thirty-five high school students, and seven hundred sixty-five first to eighth graders” filed into this building. The first class of sixteen members was graduated in 1891 from the old” Logan, shown above. In 1892. Mr. Greer left to assume the principalship of Central high, and Waldo W. Hobbs came to North high. In 1896. a second North high school was erected on the present site. This new school had thirteen class rooms, eight recitation rooms, an assembly seating 900. and a library, laboratories. shops, and drawing rooms. In 1902 the growth of the school necessitated the removal of the grade department. The first addition was the south wing for manual training and commercial work in 1907. The last, the northwest wing, housing music, industrial art classes, and class rooms, was built in 1924. The year 1913 brought a temporary set back, when a fire demolished much of the building. A new North was erected, offering opportunities not afforded before. In 1920. student registration which had had an increase of only 23 pupils in five years, soared to 2.297: and in June. 1930. the student body numbers 2.690 with a graduation class of 419. The administrative department has grown from 60 in 1915 to 104 in 1930. A force of twelve janitors, nine lunchroom workers, and five office clerks, replace the two helpers that formerly sufficed. Each successive administration has been the realization of earlier prophecies. Out of its small material beginnings. North has grown to be the institution that we know. 1892—w. W.

Could, Ktllg ENGLISH AND FOREIGN LANGUAGES IN 1889. when North high was founded, the English department began with four teachers: iMiss Sterret. Miss Porter. Miss Adams, and Miss Baker. The Polaris, issued as a monthly by Miss Leet. became a weekly in 1920. and is now issued by the news classes. Debating began in the '90 s under the title Argumentation. In 1920 it was dropped from the course, and later public speaking was introduced by Miss Laura Henry. In 1927 the first “A” English class was started in the S5 classes. The German course was installed in North's original program by Miss Aroline Arnett. In 1914 there were eight hundred ten of the one thousand eight hundred students taking the subject. German was dropped out of all the schools in Minneapolis, except North high, during the war. The Latin department began in 1889 with Miss Ida V. Mann as the first teacher. Miss Mann also taught Greek, which was dropped from the course in 1898. The French department of North began with Miss Aroline Arnett as the first French teacher. The French department of North high was the largest in the city. Spanish was first introduced in 1917 by Mrs. J. C. Jensen. She left in 1919 and Miss Juanita Day took her place. Mrs. Esther C. Hall came to North in January. 1921. and has taught Spanish here since then. Swedish was first taught at North in 1913 by Miss Ida P. Lindquist: Miss Ebba M. Norman taught from 1914 to 1921: Miss Tekla Alexis taught until 1928. Norse was introduced into the language department under the guidance of Miss Dikka Reque in 1910. She taught this subject until 1919. when Miss Pauline Farseth became her successor. . I Sixtttn THIRD Row—Santee. Street. Ohm. Davit. Jmtm. Hrom. Hutton. Lttlit. Attain SECOND ROW—A'agel. Korhtel.

MATHEMATICS THE North Science department began in 1888 with only physics, chemistry, and botany. Physics and chemistry were taught by one teacher in rooms 312 and 313. General science was taught here until after the school became a senior high. Physical geography was also taught for a while but that was also discontinued. About 1912 astronomy was introduced. This was a club where would-be astronomers gazed with telescopes. About 1910 the chemistry and physical department was moved to the basement. Here the rooms were fitted with new apparatus and furniture. In 1914 the greenhouse was added to the botany room. Biology was introduced in 1915. General History was first included in North s course of study in 1891. Commercial I.aw was next introduced in 1905. In 1910 the department was divided into the Civics. Ancient History, and General History sections, instructed by five teachers. Later. Sociology and Economics were offered. In 1924. World History, replacing the former two-year European course, was introduced for Sophomores: and United States History made compulsory for Juniors. North's first Mathematics department offered a three-year course comprised of two years of elementary algebra and plane geometry, one term of higher algebra, and one term of solid geometry. What is known as unified math, that is. one term of algebra and another of plane geometry, was introduced about ten years ago. Since then, trigonometry and a second term of advanced algebra have been introduced. Technical mathematics, a course for boys that gives preparation for more advanced work in civil, mechanical, and electrical engineering, is also a new feature of the department.

COMMERCIAL AND SPECIAL COURSES IN 1906 there was a course in manual training composed of pattern making, woodwork, and advanced architectural and elementary drawing, taught by Mr. Ringwalt. Mr. Breckheimcr. and Miss Trufant. All these subjects were taught in the present chemistry rooms: later they were moved into the south addition, built in 1907. After the fire, the shops were all refitted with new. up-to-date machinery, and the auto shop was added in 1919. when all the shops were co-ordinated more closely. Technical English and mathematics were added, and the course was then called the technical course. R. A. Crawford started the Commercial department in 1905. and taught all commercial subjects until 1911. when a bookkeeping teacher was added. The Caton Scientific Shorthand system superseded the Gregg method at North in 1917. The sewing and cooking departments were started in September. 1912, with Miss Helen Grant as the cooking instructor, and Miss Mildred Carney as the sewing instructor. These departments were first situated in the basement. in rooms 1 and 2. The Art department had its beginning in the drawing classes organized shortly after the founding of North. Freehand drawing, water color, and charcoal work were the first projects taken up. Later commercial art was included: and in 1928. art appreciation classes were introduced into the curriculum. In September. 1914. gymnasium classes were started. In the world war period, an army drill officer served as an assistant. Before 1892. there were no organized chorus classes. AH vocal training was handled by a music club. Since that time, classes have been organized and two years of chorus is now necessary in senior high schools.

She was honorable, clean in thought, word, and deed, and a sister to everyone. In addition to her prominence in Scout work, she was captain of the Girls' First Aid Squad for two terms. About the Polaris office, she was well known. Having worked on the fourth page, she was promoted to the position of an associate, and continued in that capacity until her graduation when she was awarded a silver pin in recognition of her earnest effort in behalf of the welfare of the Polaris Weekly. Her cheerful good humor, her willingness always to be of service, and her kindly manner endeared her to her fellow studnts to whom she will always be a living memory.

Net ton, Roll, Goldstein STUDENT COUNCIL THE Student Council, an organization composed of the presidents of all the school clubs, was introduced at North in April. 1925. It is purely a representative body, whose sole purpose for existence is to bind the various groups together so that they m'ay efficiently aid in developing the cultural growth in the school. T he council seems to have “matured at birth. for it immediately took upon itself the responsibility of carrying out a particular function—in the form of a “Greater North campaign. The following year, the group enacted the campaign of “Clean Life,” in conjunction with the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. The 1928 “councillors sponsored a series of auditorium periods to assist the faculty to inculcate honesty, and to discuss the Three R“ system. The latest attempt to aid in developing a basic trait of character, was the recent “True Blue campaign, which presented character in its highest form based on the already established P. D. I. R. system (punctuality, deportment, industry. and reliability). The idea was furthered by the conducting of a True Blue essay contest. In its effort to acquaint itself with the community and the parents, the council took charge of a Parent-Teachers’ meeting, this past fall. Each president of the groups gave a brief sketch of the accomplishments and aims of his organization. The council meetings are not held at any specific interval. When it is imperative that a matter be discussed concerning the student body. Mr. Hobbs, the adviser, calls the group together. The fall officers of the council were Rahland Zinn. president of the “A Senior class, president: Edith D. Cohen. Editor-in-Chief of the Polaris Weekly.” secretary.

The board votes on the names submitted. As a student organization, it serves as an advisory group to the Faculty Board of Control, only passing final judgment on letter, bar. cup. or candidates whose names are recommended by the gymnastic instructors. It was the Athletic Board of Control that brought about the reinstatement of hockey as an interscholastic sport in 1924. It was also the board who recommended the abolishment of hockey in 1927 because of the lack of student interest. A notable piece of legislation effected by the board in 1924 was the amending of the constitution to award the championship letter to any one thousand percent team although it did not win the title. T hroughout its existence, the board has included in its membership Mr. Hobbs, principal, as ex-officio president: Mr. Mandeville. faculty business manager: and Mr. Pollard, school treasurer: a boy and girl representative from each of the six different classes, from whom the vice-president and secretary-treasurer is chosen. T he president is elected by the board, not from its members, but from an outside source. The board does not have regular meeting dates, but convenes when matters come up on which they must judge.

Its members act as B Sophomore sponsors, pages in the office, monitors in the study halls, lunchroom aides, rest room clerks, hall guides, and Junior instructors at the Phyllis Wheatley Settlement House. All Junior and Senior girls whose averages are C or above are elegible to membership of this club. This year a new credit system was introduced, whereby the girls receive points as awards of their work. Mrs. H. T. Zittleman acts as the adviser of this club. Major offices of president, vice-president, and secretary are filled by Norine Mattison. Ruth Gasink, and Margaret Ritten. respectively. At the beginning of the fall term, a welcome party was given for the new Sophomores, and also at the commencement of the January term. The club sponsored, too. the annual Christmas party for the Phyllis Wheatley. This club, first organized and supervised by Miss Mary C. Harris, in 1915. was known as the Girls' League. Later Miss Susan Leet took over the advisorship but resigned it to Miss Anne Lane in 1925: she. in turn, passed it on to Mrs. Zittleman in 1927. Every girl was automatically a member of this organization when she entered North. In 1919 the club was divided into three groups known as the Sophomore-Freshman, and the Junior-Senior league with the purpose of developing individual leadership in the girls. This plan was not altogether satisfactory. so it resulted in another change the following year. The club was then divided into four groups: athletics, dramatics, social service, and philanthropic. In 1923. still known as the Girls’ League, a service club was formed. This plan was followed until 1927 when the club was again reorganized into what is now known as the Girls' Service Club.

KambtiJgr BANK CASHIERS THE Bank Cashiers' Club, a comparatively new organization at North High, was formed by Miss Goff in 1926. The cashiers were selected in each room by the adviser, and with the aid of Miss Goff endeavored to promote the banking spirit throughout the school. The cashiers are chosen upon the three qualities of punctuality, energy, and personality. Through the earnest efforts of the Bank Cashiers and the able assistance of Miss Goff, who had set a goal of 50% for the depositors. North has maintained a 63% average throughout the school year. At club meetings the members discuss plans for increasing percentage, and talk of their room averages. Recently they devised the plan of visiting the new Sophomores in their rooms, and informing them of North's efforts to keep the banking average, and also to remind them that each Tuesday is bank day. They also provide for these rooms experienced cashiers to help with the banking until the adviser knows her pupils well enough to appoint one. In 1926 the Farmers’ and Mechanics' Bank, at which North s bank day money is deposited, gave a party for the cashiers at the bank and took them for a tour of the building. This year a banquet was held during the first semester, and when the winter arrived, a sleigh ride. The club devotes its first semester meetings almost entirely to business, while during the second semester programs constitute at least part of the meetings. The officers for both the spring and fall terms are Warren Gill, president: Audrey Olson, vice-president: and Earl Cameron, secretary-treasurer. Anyone who is a bank cashier is automatically a member of this club. THIRD Row—-Silverman. Hill, Sehomberg. Kaufman. Godfrey. Gaunk SECOND ROW—Meihbether. Metier. Niedermairr. HinilZ. Bartel.

Sthhamj POETS' CLUB ITH the purpose of studying and encouraging the production of original W verse among North High students, the Poets' Club was organized in December. 1920. Thriving under the inspiration of Miss Anna Carson, the organization grew rapidly. In addition to the writing of verse, the club, through Miss Carson's influence. presented a number of public programs. As a crowning feature in these programs, a playlet in verse. Love in a Garden. written by Margaret Wharton, then a student of North, was presented with the co-operation of North's music department. Meantime. Miss Edith Jones had taken over the guardianship of the club. Inspiring as the learning of both old and modern poets have proved to be. interest has always centered about the production, reading, and criticism of original verse. However, since genius is not lavishly distributed, there have inevitably been rhymes of a character not so interesting. It has been during these lean years that devices to stimulate productions have been the most necessary. Musical programs of varied character have been given, and the members have afterwards sought to interpret the music in melodious words. Recently again the demand has been for a study of form. The students asked Miss Jones to teach them the structure of the ballad, the sonnet, and Spenserian stanza. Their hope is that through this process some worthwhile poems may eventually emerge, so that if the members of the present group seldom mount the winged horse, they may at least learn to bridle a swifter one than that of the common steed. The fall officers were Golde Rapaport. president: Douglas Day. vice-president: Helen Bartel, secretary. At present the club consists of about twenty-five members. The president of the club is Francis Sorley. Georgia Schomberg is vice-president, and Viola Pakonen is secretary. Eighty-Three FOURTH ROW—Groil. Peterton. Oetnberg. Mollner. Dahl.

The next year, some of the members having become especially interested in radio, there was formed a separate branch of the club which later became the present radio club. Most of the members having joined that unit, the original club lost interest and disbanded. For three years there was no scientific organization at North high school. But in 1926. fifty students met to make plans for the formation of a new club. The first year saw an unusual increase in membership. The original membership increased from thirty to fifty members in one term alone. The club has sponsored a number of programs in the school auditorium. At one of these periods, a musical program was transmitted from a nearby short wave station by members of this club to the school auditorium. At another program a moving picture showing the advancement of the radio was given. The success of this organization is due entirely to the faithful, untiring, and willing help of Mr. Santee, who has been faculty adviser since 1926. The purpose of this group is to create a deeper interest in natural science among students of North high school, to acquaint them with the doings of various scientific institutions, to develop a more critical attitude toward new in ventions and investigations, and to emphasize the progress and value of science to the civilized world. Membership is open to anyone who is interested in science, and has a “C average in any science class. Officers of the fall term were Terrance Hanold. president: Edmund Scheibe. vice-president: Dorothea Cheslock, secretary: and Leonard Saliterman. sergeant-at-arms.

Hitman RADIO CLUB THE Radio Club was founded in 1920 when the old radio set. which was dismantled at the beginning of the war. was reinstated in the engine room after the ban on radio apparatus was removed. The founder was Lynne C. Smcby. now well known as a radio operator at WRHM. The club was originally organized to help boys build broadcast radio sets. As this hobby soon died out. the club was reorganized: and room 320. now known as the Radio Room, was acquired. A high-power spark transmitter and a receiver were installed. The dub’s object was to enable the students to become radio operators who could handle the radio equipment and thus communicate with other amateur radio stations through the medium of code. When the government banned spark transmitters in 1923. a ten watt tube transmitter was installed, which was able to transmit both code and voice. The station is always kept up-to-date, and at present the club owns a complete amateur station which operates on a wave length of twenty meters under the call of W9BVW. a broadcast receiving set. and other equipment. The Radio Club has given two programs before the student body in the auditorium. In 1922 the entertainment consisted of a concert by ' wireless.'' a talk by a radio engineer, and a motion picture. Via Wireless. In 1924 the club re-broadcasted the inaugural ceremonies of President Coolidge for the benefit of the students. Boys who desire to become radio operators are required to pass the government examination. This club helps partially to train the boys who aspire to this vocation. The club had only two operators last year. Burton Waldron and Sam Teresi. who also operate transmitters at their homes. The club is under the advisership of Mr. Huston. Mr. Santee and Mr. Hurd helped to organize the first Radio Club. l-ightV-Fict THIRD Row -Goiink. Grib, GotJftey. Grtrull. Litocthy SECOND ROW- -ZieOe. SI. I. anon. I Han ton. Higgler, Mtihbeiher. L.

Mann. Miss Georgia Burgess, and Miss Lydia 'T hompson. In 1925 the club pin. a bundle of fasces such as the lictors. the official escort of the Roman consuls, carried, was chosen as the club emblem. A style show depicting people of the various walks of early Italian life, a party, and an illustrated talk on Europe by Donald Colp. a club member who had traveled in Europe the previous summer, were the outstanding events of that year. Latin crossword puzzles furnished novel entertainment at one of the meetings and at the same time gave the members an opportunity to demonstrate their knowledge of the language. In 1926. a constitution was adopted stating that it was necessary for those seeking membership to have a C average or better in Latin. The laurel was chosen as the club flower, and purple and white were chosen as the club colors. During 1927, the fourth year of the club's existence. Miss Thompson’s classes presented a play. In Urbe Magna (In a great city). In this same year the Latin club contributed toward the annual Phyllis Wheatley party and helped support a basketball team composed of language club members. In 1928 the club participated in a joint language club banquet, which was given to establish a stronger spirit of co-operation between the language organizations. A Latin banquet, a program including slides on Roman life and customs, and a Latin exhibit were the high spots of the 1929 activities of the club. Posters, soap-carvings, and scrapbooks were included in this novel exhibit. The officers for the year were Lloyd Seeger. president: Virginia Fahr. vice-president: Verna Wilson, secretary-treasurer: and Charles Grenell. sergeant-at-arms. Eighty-Six THIRD Row—-Ridhin.

Robtetton JEANNE d’ARC IN November of 1921 the Jeanne d'Arc Club was organized by Mrs. Whitted to increase the interest of pupils in the language, customs, and literature of France. At the same time Le Cerde Intime, composed only of girls having an “A average in French and a “B” average in all other subjects, was begun under Mrs. Whitted. Meetings of the club were held every Tuesday after school. Both social and business affairs were carried on exclusively in French. The members of Le Cerde Intime were given an extra class credit by attending twelve of the meetings and by writing in the French language five papers on any French subject. During the next two years, the Jeanne d'Arc conducted meetings every month. At Christmas and at Thanksgiving the members gave baskets to several of the needy families on the North Side. During 1924 Miss Holtz aided Mrs. Whitted as faculty adviser. That year a constitution was adopted and written in French: the club decided to meet on the second and fourth Thursday of each month: and Le Cerde Intime joined with the Jeanne d'Arc. Mrs. Whitted left North and was replaced by Miss Louise Amundson. In 1927. a new constitution was formulated and translated into French by which students having a “C average in French may become members of the organization. At this time the club had about fifty members, where in 1921 it had had only four. During the spring term of 1929. Thule Knight presided over the Jeanne d'Arc. Miss Amundson, after being faculty adviser for three years, left for Chicago. Miss Wattles replaced her as adviser. The officers for the fall term were Gertrude Seigel. president: Nell Silver-man. vice-president: Margaret Robertson, secretary.

Ball LA TERTULIA THE Spanish Club dates back to 1921 when the club was named “La Tertulia.” Spanish for “Spanish Club. and was organized under the supervision of Miss Day and Mrs. Hall. The purpose of the club is to promote the interest of its members in the study of the Spanish language. The meetings are conducted in Spanish. Anyone taking Spanish is eligible for membership provided he has an average of “C or above. The present membership of the club is forty. At every meeting, a talk has been given on a famous Spanish writer or explorer: thus, the lives of such men as Cervantes. Lope De Vega. Columbus. Alarcon. Galdos. Benavente. the Quintero brothers, and Ibanez were discussed. There have also been many discussions on the study of different regions in Spanish countries. One of these talks was given by Miss Apel. faculty adviser, who spoke of her travels in northern South America, and displayed her souvenirs. Two other outstanding features of the year were the presentation of two short Spanish plays called “La Lavendera de Napoleon. (Napoleon's Washwoman), and “El Joven Medico Unfortunado. (The Unfortunate Doctor). The closing feature this year was the annual Christmas party held in the gymnasium. Each year the Spanish club has been represented in the all-city meetings. In 1926 this meeting was held at North. Mrs. Hall has been one of the faculty advisers of the club ever since it was organized. Miss Apel is also an adviser this year. The officers for the fall term were Harvey Goldstein, president: Jane Acker, vice-president: Cerna Martin, secretary: and Raymond Hass, sergeant-at-arms. For the spring term Harvey Goldstein served again as president: Bennie Spewak. vice-president: Cerna Martin, secretary: and John Young, sergeant-at-arms.

Miss Konig. German instructor at North, organized a club for the purpose of informing those pupils interested in German about German customs and ceremonies. The club took the name of Deutsche Verein and no pupil could join unless his average was C” or above. T here were forty members when the club organized, and the membership increased until the club disbanded at the beginning of the World War. In 1908 the club had its first Christmas party which was held at the home of Miss Konig. T hen in 1909-10 the number of students in German classes increased: this caused a rapid increase in the membership of the organization. The Deutsche Verein was the first club to have a Christmas tree at North. They were also the originators of the idea of singing Christmas carols in the halls before Christmas. In 1911. the club gave its first May festival which was such a success that it was substituted for the annual declamatory contest which had formerly been held. In 1913 the Deutsche Verein held a bazaar at North, the first of its kind in the school’s history. Before the World War in 1914. the club held its big gest May party in which almost nine hundred German students took part. During the war the interest died out because German was not taught in the city schools. The German club did not reorganize until 1920. and then with only a few members. T he club adopted the same name and has been gradually increasing until now the Deutsche Verein has a membership of fifty students of the German language. During the fall term Esther Davis served as president: Moses Stock, vice-president: Gertrude Koschig. secretary-treasurer.

It was organized with the intention of studying phases of Norse and its country that are not given time for in the class room, including the literature, drama, and sciences of Norway. 1'hrough the efforts of the adviser. Miss Farseth. the club has heard several prominent men in the past year. Among them are Johan Egilsrud, a Norwegian poet and musician, and Ralph Magellson. a very talented singer and piano player. The club sponsors the annual Sigvald Quale Norse Declamatory Contest and sends a representative to the National Declam each year. 'This is an interscholastic contest started by Mrs. Quale of Eau Claire, Wisconsin, in memory of her son. Sigvald. It was begun in 1909 and has been conducted annually since. The prizes are a gold medal for national honors and a silver medal for local championship. The gold medal has been won twice by a North high student, once before the Viking club was started, and again in 1927. when Anna Wold, was adjudged the winner. Another activity of the Viking club is the folk dance. 'The members of this group are girls of the club who have revived some of the old folk dances of Norway, and present them at many different occasions throughout the year. They are coached by Miss Ellen Hammer. Once a year, at the All-City Scandinavian Banquet, the Viking club of North helps entertain other Norse and Swedish clubs of the high schools of the city. The officers of the fall semester were Clara Waagene, president; Gudrun Andersen, vice-president: Mary Louise Arnsten. secretary; Margot Aas. treasurer.

The club is an outgrowth of a former Scandinavian club, which was called the Viking club. In the fall of 1920 the Swedish and Norse students decided to separate. The Norse faction retained the name Viking, while the Swedish group chose the name Iduna after the goddess of wisdom in Scandinavian mythology. The purpose of this club is to promote the interest in the study of the Swedish language, art. and literature, and in this way to promote those ties of understanding and friendship of Swedish social life. Any one interested in the welfare of the organization is eligible for membership. and those members can obtain pins who have been present at meetings five times. Mrs. Meidt was the first adviser of this organization, and Luverne Scagrcn its first president. Usually the programs consisted of talks, readings, and musical selections by members of the school. Occasionally outside speakers are called upon. The social part of the programs consists of Swedish games. The outstanding annual event of the year is the Scandinavian high school banquet which is an all-city affair. The Dr. Arvidson awards of ten dollars and five dollars respectively which were given the two students who had progressed the most in the study of the Swedish language during the year was discontinued in 1929. In the fall of 1927. Miss Lundeen came to North and is now the present adviser of the club. Members of the club last year took up the study of “Sweden’s motive in participating in European wars. In the fall term Alta Nelson served as president; Marjorie Peterson, vice-president; Helena Norman, secretary: and Florence Axelson. treasurer. In the spring term Alta Nelson served again as president; Abner Carlson, vice-president: Marion Patten, secretary; and Florence Axelson. treasurer. Ninety-One FOURTH ROW—Shtndan. I'hornton, Dixon.

Joint suppers and meetings were held at the central Y” at which all clubs in the city of Minneapolis attended. A bean feed was held twice a month at which beans, cocoa, rolls, and pie were served. The cover charge of twenty cents gave the right to an unlimited amount of beans. In 1919 when the North side branch of the Y. M. C. A. was established with Mr. Glenn Jackson as executive secretary, the Bean Club changed to the Hi-Y club. This club grew so rapidly that in 1924 it expanded into seven chapters of a Character Club—(Primus Hi-Y. K. O. T. C.. Be Square. Alpha Hi-Y. Menorah. Siwam. and Torch Club). The meetings were held in The Million Dollar Room.’’ the wide open spaces of the old home economics room of North high school. It was during this period that the Hi-Y bookroom was established which at present does a gross business of several hundred dollars. This Hi-Y bookroom renders a service to the students by selling all their second hand books. In the fall of 1928. the plans were altered to include affiliation with the comrade clubs which were made up of high school boys in the north side churches. At the present time these comrade groups have a House of Representatives'’ which meets once a month to plan their monthly get-together meetings, known as Jamborees. The present Hi Y Club meets each Tuesday night. Its membership is open to any upper classmen not affiliated with a comrade club. The Sophomore club, known as the Torch club, meets at the same time. The upperclass organization is headed by Wilber Anderson, president: John Me Glone. vice-president: Irwin Dahl, secretary: Paul Niles, treasurer: and Marshall Sawyer, sergeant-at-arms. The Torch club officers are Robert Raustadt. president: Douglas Johnson, vice-president: Harold O'Neil, secretary: and Walter Hanson, treasurer. Sintty-T u'o FOURTH Row—l-andtbttg.

Pollard as faculty adviser. This group was the nucleus of the present organization. By September. 1925. the membership had increased so greatly that it necessitated the forming of two separate groups: Sophomore and Senior. The Senior Menorah won the silver shield in 1926 for having the highest scholastic standing of any chapter of the Character club. In September. 1928. the two chapters of the Menorah united and severed relations with the Character club. To give due recognition to the outstanding graduating Jewish boy of each class, the Menorah honor shield was established in the spring of 1928. Four points were chosen as the code of the shield: scholarship equal to or above that of the class, a high standard of character, ability to get along with fellow classmates, and leadership in his class. Sidney Schcrling. June. 28. was the first one to be awarded this shield Irving Dachis was selected as the outstanding Jewish boy of the January. '29 class: Sidney Daniels of the June. '29 class, and Ben Marcus of the January. '30 class. Although the code of this shield does not require the winner to be member of the Menorah. all four winners have been prominent in Menorah activities. In 1929 the Menorah inaugurated an annual debate with the Kadimah.

Johnton SILVER TRIANGLE BECAUSE of the success of Blue Triangle, the faculty of North high decided in 1923 to organize a club for Sophomore girls. Silver Triangle is a Junior branch of the Y. W. C. A. which carries out the four fold program: body. mind, spirit, and Christian fellowship, using the Girl Reserve code as a basis for their work. The code is: “I will try to face life squarely and to find and give the best. As a Girl Reserve I will be gracious in manner, impartial in judgment, ready for service, loyal to friends, reaching toward the best, earnest in purpose, seeing the beautiful, eager for knowledge, reverent to God. victorious over self, ever dependable, sincere at all times.” The first president. Adeline Bunnell, was chosen in 1923. Miss Yeats was the first outside adviser and Mrs. Ze Tur acted as faculty adviser for the club. Some of the various activities that have been carried out in past meetings are skits and programs by various members of the club, outside speakers, such as Mrs. Trafford Jayne. Mrs. Harry Jepson. and Miss Anne Faites. Other social features were the annual banquets held for all the Girl Reserves of the city and the Annual week end parties” at Lyman Lodge on Lake Minnetonka. Since the organization of the club, the membership has grown from twenty-five to one hundred. Every girl in the Sophomore class is eligible for membership. The girls must maintain a C” average in their scholastic standings, however. During the fall term the club progressed very well under the leadership of Doris Merzweiler. president: Curdith Windsor, vice-president: Mildred Davies, secretary: and Dorothy Maberry. treasurer. Anna Gill heads the spring term as president and has assisting her Maxine Hutchins, vice-president: Miriam Almquist, secretary: and Bernice Nafstead. treasurer. Miss Braden is the outside club adviser. The faculty advisers are Miss Lawrence. Miss Glasoe. and Miss Thorpe. Kintt i-Fout HURD Row—Olton, Hanun. I.awieme. Gatink. Koetti, Stoner.

Acker BLUE TRIANGLE ON May 19, 1921. thirty girls desiring to establish a girls' club similar to the boys’ Hi-Y. met at the old north side Y. W. C. A. club room, which was situated at Bryant and Broadway, and elected Helen Acker. Norma Hunt. Catherine Martin. Viola Oilman, and Helen Wahl the officers of the first Blue Triangle club that ever existed at North High. Miss Alice L. Berry served as the Y secretary. The faculty, membership, and program advisers were Miss Susan Leet, Miss Helen Walker, and Miss Mary Moses. In the fall of 1921. Miss Elizabeth Braden, the present Y adviser, undertook the responsibility of guiding the club in its projects, and Miss McClure took the place of Miss Leet. In 1927 Mrs. Zittleman replaced Miss McClure, but resigned upon becoming general adviser of the North high girls. For the past two years Miss Whittier and Miss Felt have served as assistant advisers to Miss Moses, who has been very active in aiding Blue Triangle activities. In order to establish a desirable reputation during the club's infancy, the membership was first limited to thirty. Gradually the restriction was lessened, and the membership increased to ninety in 1926. After the 1926 term, there were no membership limits, but any girl who was willing to uphold the Girl Reserve code and Christian purpose was eligible. The aim of this club is to develop the girls spiritually, physically, and morally, and to maintain the North high ideals of being true blue . For three years the club also has required its members to maintain a scholarship average of C”. Every year the club has sent two or three delegates to the Okoboji Conference at Lake Okoboji. Iowa. High School Girl Reserve Camp of the middle west. The officers for the fall term were Margaret Ball, president: June Hutchins, vice-president: Dorothy Middlemist. secretary: Jane Haier. treasurer: and Genevieve Billings, program chairman.

Sebnridtr KADIMAH THE Kadimah club, an organization for Jewish girls of North high school. was formed late in the spring of 1925 with the main purposes of furthering the ideals of Judaism, strengthening the bonds of friendship between the Jewish girls, and serving the school. The wide scope of work that Kadimah has participated in this year includes donating to the Minneapolis Community Fund, the Phyllis Wheatley Settlement House, and to the Jewish Sheltering Home; presenting an award of a five dollar gold piece to the person with the highest scholastic average in the graduating class of the Talmud Torah: donating an annual scholarship to the Talmud Torah: and giving money to the Palestine Penny Lunch Fund. Kadimah social affairs included two teas given during the Purim and Chanukah holidays. and an inter-dub debate with the Menorah. Every term an honor pin is awarded to a Senior girl who has proved most worthy of earning it. and who possesses the following qualities to a marked degree: Influence in the right direction: service: initiative: dependability: courtesy: social adjustment: and class average. The custom of awarding this pin. a gold K’ imbedded with pearls, was first started in 1927, and has since been awarded to seven girls: Blanche Kaplan. January. '27: Evelyn Goldberg. January. '28: Mary Besser. June. '28: Libby Sagel, January. ’29; Deborah Miller. June. '29. and Marion Berman. January. TO. Officers of the Kadimah organization from September. 1929, to December. 1929. were Marion Berman, president: Junice Patterson, vice-president: Rivia Rosenberg, secretary: Gertrude Seigl. treasurer.

Battel PARK BOARD TIJOR fifteen years the Park Board, the oldest service club at North, has faith-fully supplied the rooms with plants, and decorated the auditorium and other parts of the school for various occasions. Its annual projects are the Park Board Banquet and an Arbor Day program with the planting of the tree by the Seniors. In 1914. the club received the Northrop rubber plant which was returned in 1929 to the U . It is now housed in the Pharmacy College Greenhouse. In 1918, sufficient funds were collected to plant two cedar trees at the cast entrance to commemorate two firemen who lost their lives in the North high fire. The Pine Tree pin was chosen in 1921 as an award for those who have completed various services for the club. In 1924 the club originated the Park Protection Pledge’ for the purpose of saving animal and plant life. A play entitled. Christmas in Other Lands.” was given by the Park Board with the aid of the language clubs in 1926 and 1929. The play was written in 1926 by Leone Kehoe then the president of the Park Board. All language clubs at North were asked to help in this presentation by portraying how the Christmas holiday is celebrated in the particular country they were studying, thus French. English. German. American. Swedish. Norwegian, and Roman Christmas days were described. The members of the Park Board participating in the program last year were Nathan Mandel. Ruth Gasink. Gertrude Koschig. I.innea Pearson, and Arthur Olson. The club also sponsored the Nation Flower vote for North in 1929. The officers are Margaret Ritchie, president: Howard England, vice-president: Ethel Bingham, secretary: Edmund Scheibe. business manager. Sinrtu-Siven SECOND ROW—Kopnian, Wollowilch, Godfrey. Jurat).

North alumna and a former scout of troop number 37. was the first and only scout so far in the troop to be awarded the Gold Eagle. Leah Lisovsky and Golde Rapaport have received their letters of commendation. the necessary requirement before becoming the Gold Eagle Scouts. The North troop was started eleven years ago by Miss Evelyn Peters. Eour years later, when the troop was divided. Miss Jean Drum headed the Jewish girls, and Miss Lydia Thompson captained the gentile Girl scouts. Later Miss T hompson's troop was disbanded. The result was the combination of the two in the present troop, number 3 7. The troop s membership is rapidly growing, and it now consists of thirty girls, three of whom are first class scouts, ten second class, and fifteen tenderfoot. The first class scouts are Leah Lisovsky. Henrietta Lisovsky. and Golde Rapaport. In 1929 the troop received a gold ribbon in acknowledgement of its ten year activity. For two consecutive years, the troop entered winning floats at the Annual Scout Gymkhana. Two years ago a Cannibal Isle float won second place as the most original entrant in the contest. Last year the girls built and furnished a model house as a term project. Besides working in the Scout office and other community agencies, the girls co-operated with five other service clubs of North in making the Christmas celebration a joyful one for the Phyllis Wheatley children. This spring Miss Drum is giving courses in nature study which both the Girl Scouts and the Boy Scouts will take to pass their nature merit badges. Serving on the executive body of the club are Lieutenant. Henrietta Lisovsky. and Junior Lieutenant. Golde Rapaport. Sinety-Eipht IH1R0 Row (iatJutr. Ctitling. Stoeh Schlichiing, Notion. Wfagen.

WelJ YELLOW SMOCKS THE artists' colony of North high was first introduced into the school’s group of extra-curricular activities in 1924. through the efforts of Miss Ethelyn Dustin, who made possible the organization of the then known Art Club.” In 1925 the club assumed the name Yellow Smocks . and during the next two years under the capable supervision of Miss Ethelyn V. Johnson and Miss Dustin, the club served in school life by making posters for operas, class plays, and school presentations. Art work in sections of the Polaris annuals have been largely due to members of Yellow Smocks , who devote much time and energy in working out original and well-designed compositions. Club members also showed their spirit by preparing announcements and cards for different sunlights, club meetings, dinners, and parties of the school. Projects were undertaken such as art exhibitions, short trips and a series of short out of-door hikes, on which out-of-door nature sketchings were made. Attractive objects were entered at the art exhibits, sponsored by the club. Mrs. Bros and Miss Thickens assumed the leadership of the club assisted by Miss Dustin, who returned for the spring semester. This year, because of increased interest in the art department and limited membership of the Yellow Smocks”, a junior branch of the club was organized. This outgrowth of the older club was known as Green Smocks. Mrs. Bros. Miss Thickens, and Miss Erf alternate in the position of faculty advisers of the clubs. Since 1928. the club has adopted the policy of offering the club a type of work of its own choice. Officers for the fall semester were Esther Shapiro, president: Lura Irwin, vice-president: Janet Wagner, secretary: Dorothy Turner, treasurer. The spring officers are Esther Shapiro, president.

Cohen CIVIC FORUM THE Civic Forum came into existence shortly after the World War through the efforts of Miss Anne Lane and Mr. Shephard. Organized with a view of encouraging, arousing interest in the improvement of the community, and giving service, the club had played a vital part in the curriculum of the school. The purpose of Forum, as the preamble of its constitution states, is. To prepare for citizenship both while in school and after graduation. With this ideal before them, the members of the club have striven to aid North and give its members a much better civic training and community spirit, by discussing and handling various problems within the school. The organization flourished under the auspices of the two advisers of the faculty. In 1924 the club passed into the hands of Mr. Jensen, adviser from that date until the fall semester of 1928. when Miss Harriet Austin. U. S. History and sociology instructor assumed her present position of adviser to the club. Prominent speakers have been obtained from time to time to address the student body, and delightful pantomimes and readings have been given in assemblies. Excursions to civic and public buildings, and industrial plants have been sponsored by the club, giving social science students an opportunity to acquaint themselves with a practical knowledge of the different civic and industrial institutions. Membership is open only to Juniors and Seniors who have or are studying some social science. The Sophomores are allowed delegates from their World History classes who report the actions of the Forum but who enjoy no right of debate or vote. The fall officers were William Crotty. president; Leonard Willis, vice-president: and Mildred Vouk. secretary-treasurer. The officers for the spring term are Leonard Willis, president: Nathan Mandel. vice-president: Mary I.ipkin. secretary. One Hundred FOURTH Row -Don Carlot, Carr. Slurphy, Goldbtrp.

A. meeting was held on October 25. 1923, when Hallie Brickner was unanimously elected president, and l.orene Lynde and Florence Murphy were elected to the offices of vice-president and secretary. The various sports the club participated in were volleyball, baseball, track, hiking, tennis, swimming, skating, and dancing. Previous to this time, there had been no definite organization for the girls who were earning points in athletics. Miss Berthold and Miss Fellows realized this lack of unity and remedied the situation by aiding the girls to establish the G. A. A. The club's aims are expressed in the pledge, which was adopted on March 12. 1924: “I hereby promise to honor and uphold all the regulations and high ideals of the North G. A. A. as embodied in its constitution and by-laws. I agree to endeavor always to maintain a high standard in sports, athletics, and competitions wherein I may be partaking. To live, to the very best of my ability, according to all principles underlying the ideal of good sportsmanship. The Girls' Athletic Association is now open to any North high girl, but in order to be an active member she must earn fifty points a term. When the club was first organized, however, the active membership requirement was a hundred points won at any time. Several changes have taken place in the club sports. Hiking, dancing, and track have been discontinued, and basketball has been added to the club activities. The volleyball tournaments take place during the fall, and skating, swimming, and basketball are the sports that occur during the winter months. Tennis and baseball are the spring sports. Under the present system, a G. A. A. button is awarded for two hundred points, a letter N for four hundred additional points, and an all-city emblem is awarded to the girl winning a thousand points. In order to receive these awards, a girl must be a “Good All-Around athlete. Ont Hundrtd Onr THIRD Row—Sthon. Hidmold. Botiad. Burck. Acker. Kaulh. Seeion SECOND Row—Goldman. Gold item. Stock.

This club was very active, but at that time a movement was on foot to abolish all school clubs that could conveniently be taken in by outside organizations. A survey showed numerous other stamp clubs which members of North’s club could join if they desired, so the club was disbanded.

One Hundred Tuso Suggested to Dorothy Turner bu the picture of the 1895 football captain ATHLETICS MEMORIES V 7HEN the earlier graduates of North vv look back 15 or 20 years in sports and recall how step by step all lines of athletic activities have expanded, they feel that they are dreaming. It seems like only yesterday when this writer was moving from one class room to another in old North High School (the days before the fire of 1914) with no gymnasium for either boys or girls, and no school athletic field to handle the competition of those days. Yet as I look back. I see very little difference in conditions at North High today and then. North was as it is now. one of c o Johnson the outstanding sport schools in the city. state, and even the middle west. North always was a top-notcher in football, baseball, track, and even hockey, which seemed to carry more interest then than now. Some of the greatest athletes the Blue and White school ever had date back to 1910. There were Fred Chicken. Bill Kirke, Mose Hacrtel. Emil Granning. the Ekbcrgs. Gus. Bert and the rest of them. Bill Mason. Landy. Leavitch, and scores of others who brought one important victory after another to the school in baseball. Those were the days when Harley Carrier was a track team in himself and almost unbeatable, under the direction of Earl Jackson. Hensler. Bert Ekberg. and others were consistent winners on the cinder track. In baseball. Hollis McLaughlin was an outstanding figure. His pitching duel with “Lefty” Henry at North Commons is still vivid to the students of other days. The athletes of those days didn't begin to have the equipment, facilities, or coaching staffs that the boys of today enjoy: yet they turned out just as good teams, probably better than the teams of today. We can still picture Mr. Leslie cutting loose with one of his fiery talks between halves at the football game—or Mr. Ringwalt. athletic cashier, standing at the cash box wondering where the money was coming from to pay the bills. The same Principal Hobbs was on the job as now, enjoying a victory to the limit, but accepting defeats in the close ones just as he does in 1930. Yes. those were the good old days: but when you compare them with the present, those we are enjoying aren’t so bad.” Charles O. Johnson. ’16 (Sports editor.

Hobbs, principal at North, has viewed every team in action. The game of football was inaugurated at North in 1896 when games between classes were organized. This type of competition continued until 1898 when the North eleven encountered a team known as Camden Place. The Polars won this tilt, but the following week East high defeated them in their first inter-high competition. Of the first games played. Anoka furnished much competition. The team usually had to take a horse and wagon to reach its destination and was more apt to be subject to boos and jeers than cheers as it entered the town. On the field the team presented a colorful contrast. One of the halfbacks wore a red bandanna, the center had a pair of blue jumpers made of teamster s breeches, while the fullback had a red and blue stocking cap. Another of the boys was fortunate enough to have a pair of shin guards made of fire hose. Sucking lemons was quite a fad in those days, and it was nothing unusual to sec a player go through a play with part of a lemon in his mouth. The Polars did their early practising at the old Washington Rink on Tenth Avenue. The indoor facilities which North had was responsible for the postponement of more than one game. Many a team would send a scout to the rink and then postpone its game on the basis of the superiority that the Polars had by practicing inside. One Hundred Four B SQUAD FOURTH ROW—Mr. Olton. Johnton.

North lacked two things: funds to hire a full time coach, and a second team. Those who could not make the first team dropped out. and it was all the team could do to line up eleven men for practice. In order to increase the waning enthusiasm that was characterizing the sport, the North Side high school athletic association was started. A steady improvement in the game was noted after this organization took charge. An other aid was the engaging of John Bernhagen. whose methods made a steady improvement in the team, as coach. There were a few highlights in the seasons up to 1901. One of these was the game played against Hutchinson in 1898. The opponents had a 205 pound center by the name of Tifft. who later played with the University of Minnesota. This Tifft was really a phenomenon. He would pass the ball to the quarterback and then run back for the ball, going through the opposing line in the wedge fashion later made famous at the university. The year 1901 was the start of fundamental football at North, and the result was a title team. That year the Polars defeated Central. South, and East to take top honors. Having defeated both East and Central, the 1902 edition of the North football team encountered the South team. The game was played in slush and snow, and it proved the downfall of the Polars. who lost this game and the opportunity for a second consecutive championship. The South team also proved the downfall of the team in 1903. North made the surprising record of scoring 169 points to their opponents’ 16. However, the final result of the South game found them at the short end Ont Hundrtd Five of a 5-0 count. The highlight of the 1904 season was the playing of Fred Burgan. who was the first Polar to make the U. of M. team. 1905 and 1906 were fair years, but the banner year in the history of football at this school, came in 1907. when the Blue and White team won the United States high school football championship. North clinched this honor by defeating the Oak Park high school. Chicago. 56-0. Most of the 1907 team are still living and were here for homecoming in 1927. It wasn't until 1910. that North again received the football trophy, symbolic of the city football title. In this season s play the team managed to tie with the Tiger eleven. Dr. Burgan managed the team: and after gaining the city title, he went out and procured the state championship. The only thing of importance in 1911 was the advent of Earl R. Jackson as coach. The final standings found the team in third place. 1912 and 1913 were mediocre years with the Polar squad winning about half of its games, but these two backward years were soon forgotten by the performance of the 1914 team which went through the season undefeated to gain the city championship. Coach Jackson molded this title team with seven lettermen. After the title team of 1914, North fans were in hopes of again gaining city top honors. Instead of repeating, the team entered the also ran class, and continued in this state until 1918 when they again emerged with a championship aggregation. The Blue and White team that season virtually ran away with all of their opponents. The 1917 team was expected to gain the trophy, but the pre-season prophets apparently made a mistake. The final standing found North next to the bottom, with only one game won. After eight years of coaching at the Polar school. Coach Jackson left in favor of Tom Kennedy, the present mentor. Kennedy was determined to continue the good reputation that the school had attained. At the end of his first season, he had only one loss chalked up against his team. 1921 was a bad season, but another banner year was 1922 when the Polar gridders went through the entire schedule with a 1000 per cent team. Despite this fact, they did not win the championship. One tie marred their record and they were obliged to watch the title presented to West. The final standing of the 1923 season ended with the North squad having three victories and a like number of losses against them: but the following season the Blue and White eleven was again in the thick of the fight for title honors, ending up with second place because of a loss to the Central team. HENRY J. KOST 1895 On Hundred Six Central again proved a Nemesis to the North team in 1925 for in the game that meant the championship to the winning team. Central won. 20-19. For the third consecutive year the Polars seemed headed for the title, but again Central stepped in and prevented the Blue and White from taking top honors. It was again a hard fought battle and much credit should be given to the players. The first championship in nine years came in 1927. However, the only obstacle to the title of sole ownership of the trophy was Central, who managed to hold the North team to a 0-0 tie. The contest was one of the closest fought games in the history of the school, with the Polars in a scoring position four times, only to be held by the fighting Red and Blue team. An intercepted pass in the first game of the season was the only thing that prevented the 1928 team from gaining the Meyers trophy. That game which was with South, ended with the Orange and Black team winning. 7-6. North had to be satisfied with second place. The biggest disappointment in recent football years was the 1929 session. Classed as one of the best aggregations at the beginning of the term. North was in high hopes of turning out a strong squad: but the final standings found the Blue and White entry in sixth position, winning only two tilts, losing four, and tying one. However, the 1929 season was not so ordinary as one might think. The big event of the year was the victory over the Central team which had been raising havoc with the Polars for seven years. North clearly outplayed them in the traditional contest at Nicollet Park. South again won the title and the Central eleven, which had been high in the standings, also fell below their level, finishing fifth. After losing the first game to Roosevelt. 12-0: and tying the second contest with West. 20-20: North defeated the Central aggregation. 15-7. after Eddy Dunham snared a pass in the last quarter from Pom Egan. The following week found the Polars defeating Edison. 13-6. but they were met on equal terms in the next encounter and the result was a Washburn victory. 13-0. ruining North's homecoming. Marshall and South were victorious over the Polar eleven in the last two games. 13-12. and 12-0.

Johncon BASEBALL DESPITE periods of little interest, lack of financial support. several seasons of hard luck, and a few of no representation at all. baseball at North since 1897 has enjoyed a steadily rising position until it has attained a prominent place among the major sports of the school, reaching a place never held before by any sport when the 1929 team took the fifth consecutive title. During the three years of 1906. 1907. 1908. great difficulty was encountered by teams which organized only to be disbanded before the season was over: lack of funds and the low ebb of fan support all tended to disorganize efforts for successful teams. It wasn't until 1909 that sufficient interest was aroused to place a team in the field which came near winning the title: but due to the fact that the boys grew too confident, they dropped the final game to South in a heart breaking tilt that lasted the full run of seventeen innings and ended in the close score of 2-0. The memorable year of 1897 marked the advent of baseball at North. A team of new material had little chance to shine, and they lost all the games but the last one with Mechanic Arts. From 1898 to 1900 little ad- SNYDh'R 1929 One Hundred Nine ■ vancement was made, but a noticeable improvement was evident as the veterans returned with more enthusiasm and experience. In 1901, North showed strength, being de-Jk fcated by only Central and Stillwater. Falling short of the title by one game, the North nine was again defeated by the Stillwater nine in a hard fought game that brought the 1902 year to a close. The 1903 period also brought much disappointment to the enthusiastic followers of the North high nine for the Polars ended up with two losses, falling before the teams of Mechanic Arts and Central. In early North history, the year 1904 marks the first time a Polar team really brought the ■‘bacon home. However, its record did not go unmarred, for it was defeated twice, by St. Thomas, and by the Lake Crystal teams; but both of these teams were outside of the regular schedule. George Norris was the mainstay of the team, running up a record on the mound that was not duplicated by any other pitcher in this section of the country at that time. In 1905. the boys started the ball rolling with a vigor that gave hope of another championship cup coming to rest in the portals of North: but again they dropped their final game, this time to South. 4-1. However, the boys still had a chance when South was downed by Central, but Central refused to play off the tie. During the years 1906. 1907. 1908. and 1909, little was accomplished by the striving Polars; in 1909, they took heart and almost won the trophy, but again the Jungle Inmates came out on top. 2-0. During 1910 and 1911. the teams made little or no show, disbanding before the season was over. In 1912. the bad period of failure continued, and in 1913. no effort was made to organize a team. The 1914 season swung around, and still the outlook was dark and dreary : but suddenly the veil of gloom was lifted when Coaches Myron Leslie and H. T. Zittle-man took up the task of improving North s prospects on the diamond. The Polars ended up in third place. Eddy Bruhn pitched good ball and was the mainstay of the mound. The fielding was barely average, but the batting per cent was fairly high. The next year there was another lapse, and the only bright spot was the work of Matt Bugenstein in the box. The following year proved only a repetition of 1915. and again the only comforting spot was the work of the pitcher. Lind. The years 1917, 1918. and 1919 were marked by lack of interest and little gain. In 1920 Tom Kennedy, who was later to put North at the head of the procession in high school baseball circles, took over the diamond duties. South had an outstanding team and won the title by a margin of three full games, but North turned out a team that awakened considerable interest at the school. The pitching of Wesley Strouts and the all-around hitting of the club brought North to a second place position. Ont HunJrtJ T n The 1921 team looked well throughout the practice season; but the outcome of the regular schedule was a big disappointment, as only one contest was won. It proved to be the only one of Kennedy's teams to finish below third place. In ten years he placed three teams in runner-up positions close behind the leaders and won five titles. The 1922 team started the season with a 1-0 defeat at the hands of East, which had virtually all of its championship nine of the preceding year in the line-up. The game ended like a story book contest. East scoring on a bad throw to first with two out in the last of the ninth. Don Houck pitched a splendid game and lost through no fault of his own. The Blue and White went on a winning streak following this set-back and continued to be victorious until the closing games of the year. The second encounter with East was played at Nicollet Park. Another sensational game took place between these two good nines; rain and darkness ended the battle after eleven innings, with the score tied. 1 -1. With hopes of a victory in the playoff of this tic. North fell by the wayside in an eleven inning game with West. 8-7. This gave the title to East. North ending up in second place. The team finished third in 1923. The following year. North placed a good-looking team in the field. South, a second division club, proved a stumbling block, the first game. 6-2, on North Commons. When the teams met in the return game late in the season. North needed a victory to tic Edison for the leadership. South overcame a two run lead to win in the last of the tenth. Kennedy had a greater part of his hard luck 1924 crew to open the 1925 season. Although losing a game to Central in the first round, the Polars won the title which was to start them on their way to five consecutive championships. Using Person. Mileti. and Juneau, all right handers, on the mound during the entire first round, he was all the while quietly developing a sterling left hander in Clifford “Lefty'' Borgan. In the second round with Central and Marshall, notoriously weak against portside pitching, ready for North's right handers. Borgan was sent in and the results vindicated Kennedy's judgment. The 1926 season was more or less a repetition of the strategy used in 1925. Paul Schaefer, a promising young right-handed hurler. was brought along slowly and kept in the background. Schaefer had bullet-like speed and a wicked breaking curve: and when turned loose at the proper time, he helped North to stow away a second title. Three strong nines. Edison. Roosevelt, and South, were turned back in the space of ten days to wind up the schedule. The 1927 team was probably the best baseball outfit ever to represent North. Welton, Ditzler. Bach, and Langford were all infield veterans. Schaefer and Dougherty composed a wonderful high school battery and St. Germaine in center field covered acres of ground. Schaefer ST. GERMAINE 1928 The Tigers won Onr Hundred Eleven had plenty of relief in Synder and Curtis, and Dougherty was spelled off by Alpert and Kell. South, with A1 Broberg pitching a truly wonderful game for the Tigers, gave the Polars their only defeat. North had thirteen men left on bases that day. failing to score a single run. while South counted four times. North evened things up by winning the second game. 4-3. In the meantime. West had come to North s rescue by defeating both South and Edison, and the schedule ended with the two teams deadlocked in first place. In the playoff at Nicollet Park, North was victorious. 2-0. and broke the record for consecutive baseball championships. North opened the 1928 season with few veterans, and little hope was held out for another title. The team proved a pleasant surprise. With Snyder and Curtis pitching nice ball and Egan showing unexpected good form behind the bat. seven straight victories were tucked away. In their eighth start, the Polars lost to Edison, but went on to trounce West and Marshall to win the fourth consecutive pennant by a margin of two games. North broke its own record for a second time in 1929 when it won the fifth straight baseball flag. Snyder, captain of the team, worked again with Egan and these two formed a battery not far behind the famous Schaefer-Dougherty combination. In the first round. North barely nosed out Central and Roosevelt and lost to Washburn in a ten inning game. However, the team improved rapidly and won during the latter part of the schedule, finishing two full games in front of South who was in second place. The development of this team showed, as did the progress of no other team he had. the ability of Kennedy to get the most out of high school baseball talent. FINAL STANDINGS W. L. Pet.

Ronmg, Couth Jacobi, l.indior . Blankmhorn, Adnn BASKETBALL BASKETBALL has met with varied success at North since its innovation as an inter-scholastic sport in 1919. Only once has a Blue and White floor machine been able to win the city championship, that feat being accomplished by the great aggregation of 1925. Before the high school cage league was formed, basketball was restricted to intra-mural games: but in 1919. the managers O. K.’d the cage sport for interscholastic competition. The first season under Coach Jackson was a success, as far as North sport followers were concerned. Dunwoody was the first foe to face a cage squad representing the Blue and White. As the season progressed, a powerful team was developed that lost the deciding game by a close score to the South champions. In Allen and Hiller. North had two stellar performers. The second season of basketball opened with 'Lorn Kennedy in charge of the North squad. One regular. Worrell, remained from the preceding year. The team looked only fair when Central defeated it in the initial tilt of the regular schedule, but came rapidly to place just behind Central and South in a tight finish. Central barely nosed out the Polars. 15-15. in the return game on the former s floor. Playing at home. South won the first game from North 20-16: but North took the second round contest in a 11-10 thriller. As South and Central had divided games, this victory for North settled the title in favor of the Red and Blue. The 1921 team lost three games to finish in a tie for second place. Central with practically the same team which had competed in the national tournament at Chicago the year before, again won the title. The third defeat came at the hands of West, and victory over North earned them a second place tie with the Polars. Ont Hundred Thietttn B SQUAD SECOND ROW—Diktr. Kau man. Shapiro. Rabutmk. Heeg. find. Conn re, Gallo FIRST ROW—Coach Kennedy. Sklor. Alperi. Siegel. Sleckman, Rapa par Goldttein, Eiienttadt, Manager Little can be said about the 1922 season. T he quint started the season auspiciously by drubbing the always strong Central five. The Polars did not enter the win column again that year. At the close of the first round. Kennedy re-organized the team to include only underclassmen. A much improved brand of basketball in the second round was shown when in the last game the splendid championship South five was held to a tie score in the first half and won only after a stiff battle in the second half. The longest schedule ever adopted by the high schools was played in 1923. a double round robin with every school—twelve games. Central and South stood out over the other teams, the former winning first honors. The big scramble was for third place with North coming through by virtue of a 24-22 victory over West in the closing game of the year. The long schedule did not prove satisfactory, and the faculty managers adopted a district plan in 1924. North tied with West for district honors, winning a playoff at the Central Y. M. C. A. Central won first honors in the other district. South finishing second. A tournament was held in Kenwood Armory with the winner and runnerup in each district competing. South won. North being eliminated in the semi-finals. In 1925. North finally broke up the Central-South monopoly on championships. T wo men from the really good team of 1924 held over. Fust and Gordon, the former having been elected captain. Three factors determined North's success in a hot race which did not contain a single weak team: Fust's leadership and consistently good play: the acquisition of Mileti who came to rank with the best players developed in the history of Minneapolis high school One Hundred Focrrietn MEYER 1927 basketball; the sudden flash to the front toward the close of the season on the part of Dave Alpcrt to fill up a weak spot at forward. Saliterman and Gordon formed the backbone of a splendid defense. It had been decided that the Minneapolis high schools would not be represented in the state tournament, so North lost an opportunity to compete for the state title. In 1926, three of the title winning quint were back, and the new material rated good. However, it was not a consistent team. Edison won the title, defeating North twice. Central and South won one point victories over North on successive Fridays in the first round. These four defeats were sufficient to send North into third place, despite six victories. The faculty managers reverted to the district plan again in 1927. This time, however, the division was not the same as it had been in 1924. and all eight teams competed in the city tournament. Mileti left school. Lindfors filled his place, but in the semi-finals he went out with a broken ankle. North gave South a stubborn fight in the finals, but with no experienced center was doomed to defeat. Where North finished officially in 1928. no one knows. The season ended with North and Central tied for first place, each team having lost three games in a race filled with strong clubs; and North was looked upon as an almost certain winner in a playoff. It then developed that the name of a North player, a Senior playing his third year, had been inadvertently left off the eligibility list sent out at the opening of the second term. Also it was brought out that South and West had violated some regulation with regard to length of residence of players in a school before competing. Games were thrown out and forfeited with such abandon by the faculty managers that while Edison was made champion, no one really knows how the other teams stood officially in the percentage column. The arrival of J. J. Jacobi in January. 1929. meant an assistant for Coach Kennedy who was experiencing one of the most disappointing seasons the court game has offered the North followers. The season closed with one victory over Marshall. In 1930 Coach Jacobi issued a general call for candidates. Six class teams were chosen for a tournament which was won by the Juniors. Coach Jacobi chose twenty of the best performers in the tournament which was later cut to fifteen. The last cut found only one letterman (Charles Karch) on the squad, which won its first two conference games from Washburn and Roosevelt. A week later North was beaten by the more experienced Central team on the Polar floor. The 1000 per cent championship South team won from North 14-15. North split games with Marshall and Roosevelt and won both encounters from Washburn, finishing in a tie for fourth place with Marshall. Ont HunJitJ Fihttn TRACK TEAM SECOND Row—SabeiuHtz. Altagrn.

Ceotty, Sot ton TRACK THE first effort in track was made in 1893. when A1 Pratt, a student, was chosen to represent the school in an association consisting of high schools from Minneapolis, St. Paul. Duluth, and Stillwater, known as the Inter-scholastic athletic association. Pratt endeavored to organize a track team at North, but as there was no interest in the sport here, he represented the school himself. He was given pointers on running by Charles Craigie. a fireman, who had been a famous track athlete in Scotland. Pratt proved to be one of the best sprinters in the Northwest, winning many races. To encourage track athletics in 1903. Coach Galloway asked all shop and storekeepers on Plymouth and Twentieth Avenues to donate prizes to winners of events in an interclass track meet. The merchants came to the rescue, giving clothing, groceries, perfume, cakes, and cookies. With such stakes. North boys took a great interest in track: and the Blue and White was represented by a strong team in the interscholastic meet. The Polars won the meet. Rollin Dutton was the high point man for the meet with a second in the discus throw, and third places in the broad jump, the 100 yard dash, and the 220 yard dash. The 1909 team, composed of only four athletes, was considered at that time the strongest aggregation since 1904. Levi M. Hall was the outstanding man on the team, and the leading dash man in the state. He ran the hundred yard dash consistently in the vicinity of ten seconds. The other members of the team were Elmer Carrier in the half mile. Emmons Sawyer in the weight events, nd Jerome Fritche in the broad and high jumps. With three new men. the Polar tracksters of 1910 took second place. x r ) One Hundred Sixteen TRACK SQUAD TOP ROW—-Sabetvitz. Manager Rieti. Wertheint, lieugen, Steinmetr.

The other members of the team who made good showings were Wally Hamilton in the high hurdles. Lester Brennan in the low hurdles, and Jerome Fritche in the dash events. The 1911 team was again strong, placing second to West by the margin of one-fourth of a point. In this meet. Wally Hamilton broke the state records in the high hurdles. The next two years were especially productive in track honors: with the great Carrier in the weights and hurdles, and McLoughlin. Stone, and Richman in the cinder events, the Blue and White outfit was the strongest group in the city. They gathered enough points in all the meets to stamp them as one of the outstanding track teams in the Northwest. In 1913, Carrier, after a brilliant season, was sent to the National Prep meet at Chicago, and placed fourth in the high jump. Carrier, who captained the 1914 aggregation, was at the time, the outstanding shot putter, discus thrower, and high jumper. In every meet he averaged 16 points. Other stars on that powerful team were Bert Ekberg. later to be an all-around luminary at West Virginia University: Horace Taylor. Bert Hansel. Walter Haertel. Oliver Skellet. Ray Spurzem. iMax Sacks, and Max Meshbesher. In 1916. the Polars again were strong, and took a large share of the points in all of the meets. Saens was the individual star of the season, winning four firsts and two seconds in the three meets. In 1917. Ekberg. Gilkey. Jensen. Naused. and Richards were the boys who helped the Polars place second to Central. One Hundred Seventeen TRACK TEAM. 1901 REAR—Dexter. Freedman (Third in One-Milt). Chandler.

Barnet North placed third in the city standings in the 1918 track season. The chief point-getter for Coach Earl Jackson’s team was Bill Smock, who led the team in scoring. Another strong team represented the Blue and White in the 1919 race for track supremacy. Perhaps the outstanding runner on the squad was Naused. who ran the middle distance events, and established a new record in the half and quarter mile run. John Middlemist brought in points in the weights, as did Louis Gross, who is now Freshman football coach at the University of Minnesota. Middlemist broke the city record in the discus throw with a heave of 117 feet. Johnson broke the javelin record at 1 54 feet. Prom 1920 until 1924. when George Conklin came to North. Polar cinder teams were merely “also rails . His first team did well, winning two out of four dual meets. The next two years were fairly successful, but in 1927. the Polars took second place in the Carlcton meet, and third in the city and state. The 1928 aggregation was the strongest under the Conklin regime, with one of the most brilliant stars in the history of Minnesota prep athletics in Clarence Munn. and a galaxy of other steady performers. In the state meet they lost the first place by three-fourths of a point. In the Hamline relays, they led the field, while at the Carleton and City meets, they won second places, being nosed out by a scant few points in both cases. During this four year period. Conklin developed several stars who are worthy of mention here: the Havstad brothers—Joe and Ron. Peterson. Seklund. and Clarence Munn. who is considered the greatest high school track man developed in this part of the country. Munn. who at present is starring on the Minnesota eleven, is the holder of the state and Carleton records in the shot put. and the city record holder in the shot, discus, and javelin, as well as being one of those speed kings who share in the city mark in the hundred yard dash. For two years he brought in an average of over twenty points per meet besides competing in his pet events, the weights and the hundred yard dash. He also brought points in the 220 and broad jump. With most of his strong 1928 team lost by grad uation. Coach George Conklin was forced to develop an almost entirely new squad for the 1929 season. The Polars were slow in developing, and they reached their peak in the Carleton meet, where they placed third. In the city meet, they did not win more than one place, and as a result. Bill Crotty was the only Polar to represent the Blue and White in the state tourney where he took second in the low hurdles. hari � v carru:r One Hundred F.ighteen APPARATUS TEAM SECOND ROW—Crib.

Lunattk GYMNASTICS ALTHOUGH North has had gymnasium work during most of its existence as a school, it wasn’t until 1924 that the first Blue and White apparatus team was organized. The Polar team has been able to take both first and second places in the city and Northwestern meets during the past three years. To get the material for the making of his first apparatus team in 1924. Coach Conklin picked the best men from the regular gym classes. They placed first in the city high meet and fourth in the Northwestern meet. The following season some of Conklin's most valuable men dropped out because of graduation. Although this was a setback to the team, the squad won second place in both the city and Northwestern meets. In 1926 the Polar gymnasts lost out of first place in the city event to the Central team, giving North second in the city and third in the Northwestern meet. In 1927 Coach Conklin turned out an excellent team with an outstanding all-star man. Richard Harris. Work on the parallel bars was almost perfect, his score being 97.3 points. That year the Polars took the city meet and placed third in the Northwestern event. The next season saw the gym team capture its second consecutive city title and also place first in the Northwestern meet. North’s total points were 3466.00. The 1929 team was outclassed by the Roosevelt team, placing second in both the city and Northwestern meets. The high point men were Ronald Blowers and Llewellyn Martin. The Polars captured second place in the city event and first in the Northwestern meet. The outstanding man in both events was Llewellyn Martin. On Hundrtd Sinttttn CARRIER. SCHAPIRO. COACH SAXBY. DALGOFF. WASSER TENNIS TENNIS brings pleasant memories to the Polar enthusiasts. The Blue and White has captured the title four times, second place nine times, third place twice, fourth place once, and has sunk to seventh place only once. North did not enter high school tennis circles until the fall of 1921 when the team won its first championship, going through the season undefeated. The spring and fall of 1922 found the Polars in third place at the end of both schedules. The team of 1923 started a string of second places that lasted until the fall of 1925 when the Northsiders won the championship. Twice the team was in special post-season playoffs. The spring 1926 team won North's third championship, which was the second consecutive crown. The fall squad put North at the pinnacle for the third consecutive time and also went through the season undefeated. In this season. Coach Winworth Williams, who is now coaching at West, handed the reins over to Chester L. Saxby. present Polar mentor. The fall team of 1927 sank to second place. Julius Katz and Fred Gray went through the season undefeated. After losing its first match to Central, the spring team of 1928 again captured second position. Sam Cell. Northside first man. was regarded as the best player in the city high schools after he defeated Degroff of Central. The team for the fall of 1928 won three matches and lost three, finishing in fourth place. The spring of 1929. when the racqucteers won only one match, was the most disappointing in Polar tennis history ; but the fall team was back knocking at the championship door. The team, with Schapiro. Dalgoff. Wasscr. and Carrier on its roster, won all its matches until it met Central in the season's final, when the Polars lost by the score of three-two. One HunJrrd Tu'tntv ANDRES BN, GROSS. MR STREET. HAVSTAD. CAPTAIN LARSON GOLF SINCE the advent of golf at North in 1923. the Polars have been close to the top every season. Under Coach Street's regime, the Blue and White Iinksmen have won four championships, three of them consecutively, have run up a string of twenty-one successive victories, and have set an unbeaten team record of 291. In their first season. 1923. the best North could do was end up in third place. During the following season. North was nosed out by three points in the finals by South. Captain Ted Parker (now man number two at West Point) led the team. With Leonard Pierson. Ted Parker. Don Burris, and John Me Andrews wearing the Blue and White, the 1925 team drove and putted their way to their first championship: and spurred on by their first success, they worked their way to another victory in the fall term. Running their victory string to seventeen. Coach Street's proteges garnered a third consecutive title in the spring of '26. In the latter half of the schedule • North won twenty-one matches, only to lose to Edison in the playoff. The 1927 team reached the playoff and again lost to Edison by a scanty margin. However, in the autumnal season. North defeated all comers for their fourth title. Although it lost its two stars. Earl Larson and Clarence Pierson, the 1928 North foursome battled its way to the runnerup position in both the spring and fall schedules. In 1929 North was overcome for the third successive season by their strongest opponent. West high. During this season Harvard Gross captured city low scoring honors.

'26 ATHLETIC AND SCHOLASTIC MEDAL THE Mercury Club each year presents a medal to the boy of either graduating class who has best combined a high scholastic standard and good athletic record. This is not a city wide award, but simply a North High honor. The Mercury Club is largely made up of young men residing on the north side of the city, most of them former North High students. This is the fifth year the medal has been presented. The previous awards have been made to Meyer Gordon in 1926. to Milton Bach in 1927. to Frank Battaglia in 1928. and to Eldor Beck in 1929. The choice this year fell to John Ronning. the winner of the N on five occasions: in football for the seasons 1928 and ’29; in track for the seasons 1929 and '30: in basketball during the 1930 season.

Ruth Hau’kint GIRLS' SPORTS CORA SUNDELL'S basketball team was organized in 1901. This date marks the first instance of girls'sports at North as well as the initial appearance of girls' basketball. Because of the lack of a girls' gymnasium, the team practised in the school basement or at the Y. W. C. A. building. They also practised at the Unity settlement house and on the second floor of the North side police station. After the discontinuance of basketball in 1901. there is no further mention of girls' athletics at North until 1915. when the Girls' League included an athletic club. This group participated in tennis, hiking, and horseback riding. Miss Herbert. North's first girls' gym teacher, came to the school in the fall of 1914. Part of the old North high building was destroyed in the spring of 1911 by fire, and when the school was rebuilt, the boys' and the girls' gyms were included in the building plans. The next mention of girls' athletics occurs in 1917 when baseball, track, tennis, swimming, volleyball, skating, dancing, and hiking were introduced at North as girls' sports. Mrs. Beckman and Miss Wiley were the girls' gym instructors at the time. This date marks the beginning of the point system that now exists at North. Since then, the system has undergone slight changes: and track, dancing, and hiking have been dropped from the list of girls' athletics. Under Miss Berthold and Miss Fellows, who came in '22 and '21 respectively, the G. A. A. came r. . into being. Miss Berthold. whose place was taken f AP by Miss Hein, in January. 1910. successfully served as girls' gym instructor for eight years. ALL CITY EMBLEM Ml ■ One Hundred Vwenty-Five G. A. A.

Mr. Hobbs presented the first girls' athletic awards ever given at North High. The various types of girls' sports were represented in a short play given in the auditorium program. According to the point system inaugurated at that time. 700 points were necessary to win a monogram. The three letters which composed the monogram were N. H. S.. representing North High School. In 1921. the monogram was awarded for 700 points, and a silver loving cup for 1000 points. The first cups were awarded to Gertrude Schuppel and Bernice Smeby. This system existed until 1926. when three honors were given instead of two. A numeral was given for 500 points, an N” for 600 points, and a cup for 1000 points. Florence Grashberger. who won her cup in '24. was the first commercial student to get an “N . The last cup was awarded to Virginia Pettigrew in 1928. An all-city emblem is now given to the girls winning 1000 points through basketball, volleyball, baseball, skating, tennis, and swimming. For 50 points, a G. A. A. button is awarded. Lucille Sleppica received the first all city emblem. Virginia Pettigrew, with 1800 points to her credit, has a greater number of points than any other North High girl has ever won. Marvel Howe, who received her cup in ’24, comes second with a total of 1500 points. She also held three city track records during her years at North. Helen Hardcnbergh held two city track records. She won her cup in 1925. In order to receive an “N. a student must pass in three subjects; and to qualify for a city emblem, the girl has to maintain a scholastic average of eighty or better for at least a year.

Wagrnhalt BASKETBALL BASKETBALL was introduced at North in 1901 by a group of girls led by Miss Johnson, a North high teacher who had played basketball on an eastern college team. Cora Sundell was the captain and manager, and Miss Douglas, who was associated with the Y. W. C. A., was the coach. Since there was no girls' gym in those days, the team practiced in the school basement or at the Y. W. C. A. building. At first each player was allowed to dress according to her own fancy, but this caused so much confusion that it was necessary to adopt a regular outfit. This outfit included a heavy sailor suit blouse, blue bloomers, and low black gym shoes; quite a contrast to the neat little outfits that the modern girl basketball players wear. In 1902. the girls changed their blouses for white jerseys with blue N's embroidered upon them. Helen Gregory, captain of the 1902 team. Bonnie McAllister, captain of the 1903 team. Laura Miller. Ottola Miller. Lora Gooding. Hanah Oren. Ruth Hawkins, and Lillian Peake, composed the team of 1901. Edna Leighton. Emma Kraft. Frankie Mayo. Marian McAllister. Leila Witchie. Francis Seaborn. Beatta Werdenoff, Elizabeth Rich, and Katherine Dwyer took the places of the graduating members of the 1901 team. Helen Webb. Helen Alexander. Laura Lindberg, May McEUigot. Helen Sundell. Mary Thomas. Lillian Schwartz. Margaret McDermott. Grace Saunders, and Bessie Webb were the members of the 1903 team. This 1903 team was the last girls' basketball team at North until the sport was revived in 1928 under the G. A. A. organization. Margaret Woolley was head of basketball in '28 and '29 and was succeeded in 1930 by Helen Bartel. As in the other sports, class teams are formed, which play each other for the basketball championship. I One Hundred Ttvtntu-Biohl SOPHOMORE TEAM (CHAMPIONS) TOP ROW—Goldblum. Ortn, Pakka. Soodltman, $(hu'art man BOTTOM Row—King. l.ytnt. King. Cuntxtl VOLLEYBALL OLLEYBALL has been a girls' sport at North since 1917. when the present system of girls' athletics started. Every fall a tournament is held to determine the class winners. Those interested report to the gym and form practice teams. The most outstanding players of the practice teams are chosen for the regular senior, junior, and sophomore teams, which play each other twice. The one winning the greatest number of games becomes the school champion. The next step in the tournament round is choosing the all-star team, which is composed of the best players of the three class teams. This system was initiated by the G. A. A., a club which developed volleyball into a more successful sport than it had ever been before. Florence Beck was the first G. A. A. head of volleyball. In 1924. the G. A. A. invited the West high school volleyball team over to North for a party and a game with the North all-star team. The North erners won the game from the Green and White team with a nice score. This party served as a precedent for following years and a party and a game with another school has featured the end of each volleyball tournament since that year. A rainbow tournament took place in 1926. There were ten captains chosen who selected their players and team colors. These teams played each other twice: and at the end of the tournament. Symie Macki's Yellow Team held the championship. Following this preliminary tournament, the class teams were formed, and the juniors won the class championship. The sophomores won the championship this year as a result of a closely contested game between the seniors and the sophomores. On Hundrrd T w'tnlu-Sint SOPHOMORE TEAM (CHAMPIONS) TOP ROW—E. Cam. R. Care. V. Sander t. E. Hartman BOTTOM ROW—s. E drill on, I. Slilltr, I. Brown. F. Johmon BASEBALL BASEBALL is one of the oldest girls' sports at North. The activity dates from 1917. but the most successful baseball years have occurred since the G. A. A. was organized in 1923. In this year, the sophomores won a decided victory over the juniors. This marks the first time a lower class team ever won a baseball championship. In 1924 the usual two rounds of inter-class play resulted in a tie between the juniors and the seniors, a situation which made it necessary to play an extra game. This game also threatened to be a tie. but the final score was fifteen to sixteen in favor of the seniors. The seniors retained their championship during the following year. Of the six games played in 1925. the seniors won three and lost three; the sophomores won two games and lost four: while the juniors won but one game and lost the remaining five. The tournament started on March 24 with the juniors playing the sophomores and ended with the junior-senior game in April. Because there was such a large number of sophomores that came out for baseball that year, two sophomore teams were formed. In 1926 the sophomore team emerged victorious, losing but one game, which was to the juniors. A sophomore team held the championship for two years in succession, until 1928. 1928 was not as successful a baseball year as previous years had been. Because of the lack of time, there was no preliminary tournament. The girls who had signed up practiced a few times: and. according to the ability shown during these practices, the class teams were chosen. The juniors won the class title. The sophomores won the school championship for 1929. On Hundred Thirty SKATING CONTESTANTS TOP ROW—G. Goldblum. M, Murphy. R. Carr. E. Ellingitn. C. Orrn MIDDLE Row—L. Olion. E. Lindholm. I..

There is no instruction given for this branch of athletics except explanations about the various types of skating by which one may win points. Ever since the G. A. A. was organized in 1923. a girl has been elected the head of skating. She appoints certain days upon which the girls who are interested report to North Commons for a skating test. The G. A. A. head awards points according to the ability the girls show during the test. Two hundred points is the greatest number that can be won by skating. The first 100 may be won by plain skating, and the second 100 through fancy skating. Ethyl Copeland became the first G. A. A. head of skating in 1923. She was succeeded by Fae Brechner the following year. Fae held this position until 1926, when Beatrice Davies took her place. Virginia Pettigrew. North’s most outstanding girl skater, became the head of that sport the next term. Virginia is the only girl who has ever attained the full two hundred points in skating. Florence Tenney was elected head of skating in 1928. and Dorothy Tenney served in the office during the following term. T his year the G. A. A. held three skating meets at North Commons. Seventeen girls won a hundred points or less and three girls earned over a hundred points. 1926 was a very successful skating year. Thirteen girls came out for the first skating meet and nine for the second, making a total of twenty-two girls. Inez Rusley. rolling up a score of one hundred forty-two points, gained the greatest number of skating points for that year. Ont Hundred Thirtu-Ont TENNIS THE first tennis playing group at North was organized in the Girls' League in 1915. After this year, however, tennis temporarily became a side issue of the club until 1920. In the meantime, girls' athletics had developed outside the Girls' League, and tournaments were being held between the various Minneapolis high schools. The year 1920 boasted a successful North team composed of Cora Carlson. Florence Berman, and Helen Hardenbergh. These girls won the school championship and stayed in until the semi-finals in the city tournament. Florence Berman held the North high championship during 1921 and 1922 and was succeeded by Helen Hardenbergh in 1923. Marjorie Annexstad. Myrna McGillis. and Helen Hardenbergh composed the North team of 1923. Myrna McGillis and Marjorie Annexstad were defeated in the semi-finals of the city tournament and Helen Hardenbergh in the finals by the West high representative, Bernice Davidson. Helen Hardenbergh is the most outstanding girl tennis player North has ever produced. She defeated her Central and West high opponents in 1924 and consequently became the city tennis champ. Miss Hardenbergh was the first North high girl to get a championship N. Each year a fall and spring tennis tournament is conducted under the direction of the G. A. A. The singles usually occur in the spring and the doubles are played in the fall. This year the club voted to have both the singles and the doubles take place in the spring. SWIMMING SWIMMING is a minor sport at North, and no instruction is given for this sport other than directions as to what is required in order to win points, which arc awarded to the girls who come out for swimming according to their individual ability. Two hundred points is the greatest number of points a girl can gain toward her letter or city emblem by swimming. One hundred points is given for plain swimming, including swimming sixty yards with one stroke, swimming twenty yards with another stroke, back or front floating for thirty seconds, treading water for one minute, plunging and bobbing in water ten times, and straight and running diving. One hundred additional points can be won by passing the regulation red cross life saving test, which is for advanced swimmers. A badge is also awarded to the girl who passes this test. The swimming meets arc held at Franklin during the late winter or early spring months. Those who come out for swimming are divided into teams. For each event that a girl enters, she receives a point for her team. If her performances are satisfactory, she is permitted to earn individual points for herself. Marion Custer. Inez Rusley. and Charlotte Mark captained the teams of 1926. 1927 was a very successful swimming year. Symie Macki’s team and Ruth Whitman's team turned in the highest scores. Mildred Anderson made the best individual record at the meet. Alice Fitzgerald was the head of swimming during the following term.

The editors, supposedly a group of alumni, did not choose to disclose their identities, with the exception of a notation on the title page which says 'A History of North High. By Its Friends. Several of the pictures used in this year's Annual were taken from the Walla-Ka-Zoo. For a period of four years no more records were written. The first regular Annual was published in 1910. Since then one Polaris has been compiled each year, with the exception of 1916. when the January and June classes issued separate books. During the last five years four Polarises have received All-American ratings. The Polaris of 1926 was rated first in the United States: that of 1929 rated fifth, in the N. S. P. A. contest. The theme of the 1930 annual is the history of the school. This theme is being carried out throughout the book, in that writeups of all the activities contain history primarily, and the book itself is called the Annual of Memories. Virginia Fahr heads the staff this year as managing editor. Leonard Willis is the business manager, and Meyer Blindman is in charge of the advertising. The January personals and activities are in the hands of Marion Stevens and Gertrude Koschig. respectively: Jane Oberg has charge of the June personals, and Ruth Gasink. the activities. Mildred Vouk.

Zattrow ORGANIZHD MUSIC CLASSES were introduced at North high in 1892 under the direction of Miss Cynthia E. Adams. The classes were organized for the purpose of entertaining at commencements, concerts, and auditorium programs. At present there are twenty-one hundred students enrolled in music classes. From these chorus classes glee clubs have developed. In 1903, the first boys' glee club and girls’ glee club were inaugurated under the supervision of Miss Adams. P. A. Davis, present teacher of chemistry at North, took charge of the boys' glee club from 1904 to 1912. when he resigned owing to stress of other duties. Winworth Williams, at present history teacher at West high, had charge of the glee clubs from 1912 to 1915. Raymond N. Carr directed the glee clubs from 1916 to 1918 during which time they took part in the comic operas Chimes of Normandy. Joan of Arc. the Cantata. On Shores and Sea. and the opera Pirates of Penzance. Mr. Williams again resumed charge of the clubs for about three months in 1919. The popular comic opera. Pinafore. was given under his direction. R. T. Tenney took charge in December. 1919. and he is still in charge of the glee clubs at North. The boys' glee club has participated in many concerts and operas. One of the greatest honors given to the boys materialized on February 4th of this year when they sang in a program given by the Apollo club and Florence MacBeth. celebrated coloratura soprano. The main project of this year’s music groups was the opera Prince of Pilscn. produced in April. One Hundred Forty BOYS’ GLEE CLUB FOURTH Row—Young. Singer. F.idivold. Ohon. Johmon, litrgman.

A Nautical Knot.” written by Rhys Herbert, a Minneapolis man. and directed by R. A. Crawford, was presented in 1908. Nine years lapsed before North sponsored its second opera. Chimes of Normandy.” given in 1917. From that date on. North has presented an opera every year. With a larger cast than before and a few new simple stage settings, the opera. King Hal. was given in 1918. The follow ing year. North presented The Pirates of Penzance. After the 1920 opera. Pinafore. directed by both Mr. Norton and Mr. Williams. R. T. Tenney, who is now the musical director, came to North. During the next four years delightful operas were presented but not until 1925 with the opera. Martha.” did North gain the recognition of music critics. The following operas. Robin Hood.” Lelawala, The Gondoliers. and Sweethearts were all successfully given. The 1930 comic opera. The Prince of Pilsen, by Gustav l.uder. was one of the most charming and entertaining stories ever told in song at North high school. The opera was staged in Nice. France, an international summer resort, where hundreds of people including a group of Vassar girls and Hans Wagner, a sausage maker from Cincinnati, enacted by Carl Pennig. are vacationing. Hans is taken for the Prince of Pilsen. portrayed by Lawrence Fish and Floyd Woodbury. Because of this mistaken identity, many humorous and exciting scenes occur. Mrs. Madison Crocker, enacted by Marian Miller and Marian Hanson, is a wealthy widow from New York who flirts outrageously with every noted person, especially Artie, a distinguished English lord, portrayed by Alfred Falk. The true Prince falls madly in love with Nellie, the daughter of Hans Wagner, and they live happily ever after. The opera was directed by R. T. Tenney and R. A. Crawford.

Sivanton THE NORTH HIGH ORCHESTRA was organized in 1900 by Clemens Rahn with only nine members. Although it was small at first, it grew rapidly until in 1917 there were forty-three enrolled. In 1920 a girls’ orchestra was organized also. In 1921. R. T. Tenney took over the orchestra work. Under his direction, the orchestra was divided into two separate organizations—the first and second orchestras. As the members of the first orchestra graduate, the vacancies are filled by the most competent from the second orchestra. In 1923 the orchestra obtained the height of success when it played under the direction of Philip Sousa. Members of the group have been sent to represent the school at the National High School Camp at Interlochen. Michigan. In 1928 Zelig, cellist, represented North at the camp. Last summer Ruth Bemis. also a cellist, represented the school. This February, she was chosen to play in the National high school orchestra which played in New York. Atlantic City. Philadelphia, and Washington. E. L. Gadbois came to North September. 1929, to take charge of all instrumental work. String as well as reed and brass classes were organized, and the orchestra began to take on new proportions. At the January 1930 graduation, the orchestra contained only three cellos and two string basses, in addition to the regular number of strings; but during the spring of 1930. the siring bass section was increased to seven, while the cellos now number eight. The orchestra, composed of sixty-eight members, includes in its working material overtures of the first rank. Hayden's Twelfth Symphony. Beethoven's T hird and Fifth Symphonies, and other works of equal merit. One Hundred Forty-Tu'o A CAPELLA CHOIR Filtan. Blindman, Hour. Fisher, CaJboit, M. Benson. Bolin, Btoomquisi.

It has proved to be such a success that this last term there were two choirs, and next term there will be in addition a Sophomore choir which will be organized every February thereafter. The choir does all its singing without any accompaniment, whereas the glee clubs and choruses are almost invariably accompanied by piano or orchestra. This enables the choir to attain a higher state of perfection in tone quality and pitch. There are not and should be no outstanding solo voices in the choir because they destroy the possibilities of perfect ensemble singing. The membership of the choir in its initial year was about one hundred. Under the leadership of Mr. Tenney, sacred concerts were given at several north side churches. The group sang in conjunction with the glee club at the National Education Association when it was held at Minneapolis. The next term the choir sang at churches: in a joint concert with our glee club and Central high A Capella Choir, they presented two concerts—one at Central and one at North. Mr. Tkach, former music teacher here, directed the choir for the next half year. During that time several concerts of sacred music were given over the radio. The choir also represented North in the contest for mixed choruses last spring. The choir has been active this last year. Concerts have been given at Robbinsdale high school. Jordan. Lincoln, and Nokomis Junior highs. Cal vary Methodist Church, and over WCCO. under the direction of Mr. Tenney. There is an A and B choir now. The B choir has a membership of about seventy, and is a preparation for the more advanced A choir consisting of one hundred Juniors and Seniors.

Herding THE STAGE FORCE was formed, in the beginning, from various North high boys who volunteered to arrange the scenery for any auditorium play or program. After the play was over, the crew returned to their former status as members of North's male population. Miss Henry and Mr. Crawford, who had charge of that particular phase of work because they were then the directors of the class plays, soon foresaw that this method could not possibly continue. To solve this difficulty, the plan of training undergraduates for this task and then using A” Seniors as assistants when the class play season arrived, was made. The first methods of putting up the scenery were very crude. It was shoved upon the stage, and the lights were all turned on. brilliantly illuminating the stage, whether or not the scene required darkness. As time passed. Miss Crittenden, of the English department, who took Miss Henry's place, succeeded in securing some electrical equipment. Different boys were then assigned the responsibilities of taking care of the various pieces of stage apparatus. As a result, there was a gradual separation of the boys into two groups, the Stage Force and the Electrical Force. They were still under the same faculty advisers. Several years ago, it was decided that a student should be appointed as a Stage manager. He is really the director of the crew, and is responsible for getting everything ready for the entertainment given in the auditorium. It is only recently that the Stage Force has been organized into a definite, permanent body, possessing a constitution as any club at North does. A member of the Stage Force must have a C” average. Richard Breitncr was Stage Manager for the past school year. One Hundred Foriy-Eiahi a FALl- 1929 FACES Wilton, Gatin k. Mtddltmut, Fahr, Pranon. Jorgenton, Soon an.

The girls are members of the North troop 37. but the boys come from 53, 61. 66. and 86—all North side troops. THIS FIRST AID GROUP is an illustration from the 1918 annual.

There are two lunch periods, handling approximately one thousand students each. In February, 1930. a plan was adopted by which Mr. Hobbs selects one captain for each table to see that the students leave the lunch room in order. THE TEACHERS' LUNCH ROOM was opened in 1925 when the new wing of the building was added. Before that, the teachers had eaten in the student lunch room. At first they ate anywhere, then at certain tables, having students carry their lunches to them. TEACHERS LUNCH ROOM Ont Hundrtd FHti-Thrr LUNCH ROOM FORCE FOURTH Row—Hast, Amitrton. Thornton. Frick.

Mattison THE LUNCH ROOM at North didn't exist until 1901 when the Board of Education put the Misses Hermine Konig. Frances Burritt. and Raphealda Johnson on a committee to arrange for a lunch room. In March. 1901. room 105, including the space now occupied by the bookroom. was given over to Mr. and Mrs. Spenser, who were to make and sell cold lunches. The committee of teachers was in charge of the financial management and selection of food. Sandwiches, milk, cookies, and bananas comprised the menu. Milk was sold for one cent a glass, and sandwiches for two cents apiece. The first lunchroom equipment consisted of some tables for the cook to work on. and a counter in the doorway where the food was served. Gradually the business increased sufficiently so that a large movable counter, loaded with food, was put in the hall. The next addition was more counters, and with these came the need for student helpers. Each week Miss Konig selected different students to help serve. They received no pay. In 1904 hot lunches were introduced. and two ranges were added. Soup and hamburgers were served and in 1911 sweet chocolate was added. North burned in 1913. and the school was continued in old Central high. The lunchroom counters were carried on in the same way as at 1902. LUNCHES IN THE HALL North. One Hundred Fi ty-Four NORTHS MODERN KITCHEN A7TRS. LYDIA SMITH became chief cook in 1904. and Miss Konig retained her place as supervisor. All of Miss Konig's services were given without compensation. In 1918 she was replaced by Mrs. Mary Kellogg. Mrs. Kellogg kept her place until a few days before her death in December. 1929. With the advent of the new term in 1930. Mrs. F. B. Clausen took the position which Mrs. Kellogg had occupied. In the fall of 1929 there were twenty-eight student helpers in the lunch room, but in 1930 the number was reduced to twenty-five. Since 1914 there have been eight cooks and a janitor. The student lunch room committee of 1915 was the first to receive pay. The committee then consisted of thirty-three students, since there were no cash registers. With the increase in students in the school, the receipts of the lunch room have grown from six dollars per day in 1901. to two hundred dollars per day in 1930. The equipment in the kitchen is modern. There are two steam tables, a pastry oven, an electric dishwasher, and a cold storage plant. On the opening day of the first lunch room, three hundred students were served. This year approximately two thousand pupils arc served daily. The menu consists of two kinds of soup, three salads, three vegetables, two or three sandwiches, in addition to bread and butter, potatoes, two kinds of meat, ice cream, cake, cocoa. and milk. the first equipment ■ Oni HunJrtd Fi lu-Ficr THE NEW PUMPING ROOM THE HEATING PLAN !’ at North, before the disastrous fire of 1914, was very simple. The engineer had to open certain valves so that the building would be heated through the night. During the day. the teacher had to open the windows if it became too warm and run the risk of catching cold by coming in contact with the cold draft. If it were cold in the room, she had to manipulate the controls on the radiators. After the fire, a new type of heating system was installed. The old boiler room became the present engine room and a new boiler room was constructed. At the same period the first fan was installed. By means of this fan. air is taken in from the outside: preheated, washed, reheated, and forced into the rooms. Then the gyms and lunch room were built: at the same time, another fan and the automatic controls were put in. The heating was. from then on. regulated by the fluctuation of the thermometer and kept between 68 and 72 F. There are three 150 H. P. boilers to generate the steam, two ventilation fans run by engines, and one by electric motor. The washing of the air not only cleanses it but keeps the humidity at forty degrees. The air leaves the engine room at sixty-six degrees F. and reaches the room at sixty-eight degrees F. The required difference in heat is made up by the radiators. Joseph DeMarsh. the present head engineer, has been at North for five years. S. M. Kilmer, the fireman, has THE first pumping room worked at North for fifteen years. One Hundred Fiftu-Six BOTANY LABORATORY AND GREENHOUSE I HE GREENHOUSE and Botany department have developed steadily since their beginning. In 1904 the Botany workroom'' was on the second floor in the northeast corner of the building. When the east addition was built, a conservatory was made over the 17th Street entrance, where Mrs. Zit-tleman's office now is. There, a little plant museum was attempted by the students. When the present school was completed, after the fire, there was also a greenhouse attached to the new building. It contained nothing but fixtures. Plants were needed. The university donated twelve large plants, the Northrop rubber plant in the collection. Plants were immediately started from seed, and during the first year vegetables were grown. That fall neighbors about the school gave the greenhouse plants from their window boxes. In order to make a little money, tomato plants were grown and sold to the teachers, neighbors, and pupils. During the war. the students had over eight hundred backyard gardens as a patriotic project. The greenhouse inherited a herbarium filled with about eight hundred dried specimens. These were used by the teachers in class until the green ones were grown. Since the greenhouse has made a good start, plants have been given to settlement houses and to the Glen Lake Sanatorium. In 1929, the old garden where vegetables were grown during the war time was replaced by a tulip bed. Through this growing of flowers about the school, the students who live in apartments actually get a chance to work in the soil. The students also learn to arrange flowers in an artistic way at home. The Park Board arose as an organization when the War Garden project fell away. One Hundred Film-Seven BOTANY CLASSROOM. 1004 JANUARY SENIORS. 19JO THE FIRST SENIOR CLASS. June. 1891. composed of sixteen members, graduated from the old North high school on the site of the present Logan grade school. These students were under the guardianship of Miss Ada E. Talbot who is now Doctor Ada E. Talbot of Los Angeles. Miss Mary C. Deverast was the valedictorian. Former “A Senior classes claimed as “Home Room. the old room A. which has since been transformed into rooms 1 1 1 and 1 1 2. This year's June class had rooms 224. 225. 226. 227. 228. and a section of room 100 as Home Rooms. In fact, the classes have grown so much in the last few years that much difficulty has been encountered in seating all of the graduates on the stage at commencement. In January. 1930. two hundred seventy-three students graduated, and four hundred nineteen students bid farewell to North this June. Miss Ida V. Mann was the adviser of the January class: Miss Georgia A. Burgess of the June, 1930 class. North has changed a great deal since 1881. Various trophies, filling the trophy cases, pictures, and busts adorn the halls—memorials to those classes who have gone forth to make places for themselves in the world. At present these memorials include. aside from pictures and busts in the hall of fame, a radio, a “grandfather’’ clock, a portrait of Mr. Hobbs, and three statues. Students who leave here feel that they have spent their three years at North to good advantage. The same thing was true when that first class graduated. The classes have increased in size, and the school has grown, but the traditions and ideals are the same. 1902 SENIORS On Hundrrd Fifty Eight AT WORK IN TUB LIBRARY. I«J0 NO LIBRARY was in existence in the first North high school, not even a collection of reference books. Feeling the need of extra material for the students. Mr. Greer approached the library board and asked for a branch on the North side. After Mr. Putnam, the librarian, was taken up to the roof of the school to count the new homes in sight through a field glass, he finally consented to furnish the books if the school board would furnish heat, and light a room. Thus in February. 1890, the first branch library was established in the North high school basement. In 1894. it moved into its present home at 1832 Emerson Avenue North. Then North began to build its own library. There were about fifty reference books at first, in a little room in the north corner of the third floor. There were long tables in the halls where the pupils took the books to use them. The collection grew so fast that in January. 1912. Miss McClure, the present librarian, was put in charge of the library room. From a collection of four thousand books, which they had at that time, the library has grown to a collection of about fourteen thousand volumes. The library has suffered one setback that of the fire in June. 1913; most of the books were saved, however, as the first cry that went out was “Save the books.” Now an average of seven hundred students use the library daily. In order to meet the demands as quickly as possible. Miss McClure chooses a number of “A Senior girls who form a class and who assist her and Miss Stampe. assistant librarian.

The first four entertainments were all concerts given by men: but in 1915 the women teachers gave a two act comedy, in which there were no men characters, called Mrs. Oakley's Telephone. Since that time, the field of action has widened considerably. With each entertainment, more and more new acts have been added until the later entertainments have contained a variety of songs, plays, dances, stunts, and music. On the program of 1925 was a one act play called Land of Heart's Desire. This was the first serious play the faculty had ever given. A humorous one act play. Box and Cox. was also given in which C. L. Saxby. Win-worth Williams and Miss Mary Goff took part. It was at this entertainment that Mr. Fetzcr and Mr. Zittleman gave their memorable ballet. Wednesday.

Tenney, second tenor: Archie H. Hurd, first tenor: W. H. Shephard, first bass, later substituted by Winworth Williams: and Perley A. Davis, second bass. Mr. Shephard had the position of manager. By 1913 the quartet was known as the Polaris quartet. It had already been featured in several concerts. Among these were the faculty concert at North in November. 1912. a concert by invitation for the Minneapolis School of Music in December. 1912. and later on. at a recital given for the Ladies' Thursday Musical. In November. 1915. the quartet gave three concerts in Wisconsin under the auspices of the University of Wisconsin. The Polaris quartet was enlarged in 1 9 1 4 by faculty members to the Faculty Glee Club of sixteen male voices. The women's quartet, consisting of Mrs. Mace Huebner. Miss Taylor. Miss Norman, and Miss Sherman, was organized in 1919. A quartet of mixed voices, composed of Mr. Carr. Mr. Williams. Mrs. Huebner. and Miss Taylor was introduced at North about 1917. It was reorganized two years ago by Miss Quello. Mrs. Huebner. Mr. Tkach, and Mr. Tenney. The quartet of mixed voices which took part in the 1929 faculty program is shown at the side.

The Aurora.” predecessor of the Polaris Monthly, was organized under the auspices of Chres-tomathian.” the school s literary society at that time. Edited by five members of the literary society, the small paper headed by Miss Kate Bofferding had a brief existence. The next periodical publication undertaken by students of the school was the Polaris Monthly, started in 1915 under the leadership of Susan M. Leet. faculty adviser. During the ensuing five years from 1915 to 1920, the Polaris Monthly became an active institution of the school life and was the school’s official publication. On October 19. 1920. the publication changed from a monthly magazine to a six column weekly newspaper, and the first edition of the Polaris Weekly was issued. This was made at the request of the student body who felt that the growth of the school warranted a more frequent edition. The seven column issue started in 1922. Miss Anne Lane assumed the responsibilities of Miss Leet’s advisory position in 1925, and in 1927 Mrs. H. T. Zittleman (then Miss Margaret E. Borden) took over Miss Anne Lane’s work. She is at present adviser of the publication. The results of the past nine years have been most gratifying. In state and interstate contests the Polaris has received special recognition, and in 1924. the Weekly was rated highest of all All-American High School newspapers; it received All-American awards in 1926, 1927, 1928. 1929 and 1950. being pace-maker in two contests in 1928 and 1929.

Leonard Willis continued as business manager. After a few weeks, the masthead was changed and Nathan Guttman. because of ill health, took up the newly created student advisership. while Luella Kluck became managing editor, and took charge of both the make-up and the copy of the Polaris. With the graduation of the January class, the Polaris lost all but one of its four page editors, as well as Leonard Willis, who gave up the weekly business managership to take up the same position on the annual. Terrance Hanold. sports editor, became the managing editor. Milton Hoffman was advanced from sports writer to the second major position of the staff, editor-in-chief.
