FORE At the first meeting of the annual staff, the editors talked about the many happy hours they had spent in school, the outstanding events that had taken place, and their desire to remember, in the future, their high school life in general. The managing editor suddenly had an idea. Why not incorporate within the covers of the 1937 annual the very life, spirit, and memories that they had just been discussing? Everyone was enthusiastic! The idea was taken up, and so you see in the following pages an attempt to concentrate within a limited space all the atmosphere that exists and all the experiences that occur in the life of a North High School student. WORD Day by day the staff worked out this theme, giving it an informal treatment which, they felt, would recall special incidents most readily. They employed the simple narrative style recounting the adventures of student reporters to lend a touch of reality to the ictivities described, and gathered as wide a variety of pictures as possible to lend color the stories.

Elinor Fclsenberg, Connie Norman and Mary |ane Swanvon to kc« final direction before they Hart upon their icarch for new . Among the many things which the newly-assembled staff discussed was the innovation of a new section in the Polaris Yearbook called the Home Room section. Violet Person, an A senior, was named editor of this division and she was given a committee of four girls to assist her with the work. The staff decided that the work on this section should be outlined and begun immediately, because of the many details and the amount of time it would take to photograph, sort, paste, and gather and proof rosters. Violet decided to meet with her committee at once, so, in the second week of October, five girls assembled in the Polaris office. Violet, addressing the members of the committee, Mary Jane Swanson, Elinor Fclscn-herg, Connie Norman, and Helen Larson, said, The purpose of this new section in the annual is to bring more faces and more names into it. Thus we interest the underclassmen, for their own pictures and their names appear on the pages. The same principle which is used in publishing a newspaper, namely, the more names, the larger the circulation, can be applied to our section. I'm going to assign different home rooms to each of you, and you in turn will be responsible for informal write-ups and the rosters of each one. Bring in the atmosphere of each room you visit, and find out the outstanding members of the group by interviewing the teacher. Waldo Bretson, the Annual photographer, will take pictures of each room, and you’re to take them to the corresponding room for identification of each pupil. Let’s get to work and see if we can’t get our section to press before spring vacation. The girls hurried to the board to copy their assignments, and thus began the advisory section. ,V; Assignment ISKSM - ' - - 7 ■;■■■; ' ■� -.•••• • 1 —t;— .u?3k--7A ; ™ i -r - ■ yr f. .-'y sh- sX 7 s ‘ I C ? - ? ym, ,yy7 sr .J Jts r i Ysy rf' yzys-m' xdc Tltf-yu Classy .y -yyn. l' ( f i L y Vk,y . - yy. r.As y' t sr c' j yw i £ ■ y y:;- X 'f7i -■ %L V Ifr- I? ■ j f ■ ■ ? ■ t ,_ r — 4 ( § Ti s A • v tr { %■ “ £ ,,• .- ,:... • : - ■ y £| Wf-— W ■. jl 0- 7 ■ - f i 1 i r “ m 1 |f ill ■ - f f?

Bank reflected on the new milestone that has just been passed in the life of North High School. To the seniors, who arc leaving North’s corridors for the halls of later life, he It3d this message: As you go on through life, may your memories of North High school serve to inspire you to do things worthwhile, to give unselfish service to the community of which you may be a member, and to seek ever for that which will in all ways make you a worthy American citizen. Good luck, and Godspeed to you in your new life to come. F. W. GATES Assistant Principal In the flower-filled room, where for several weeks he had been taking a much-needed rest, Frederick W. Gates looked up with a smile. Glancing across the street toward the school that he holds so dear. North’s assistant principal spoke his message to the graduating class: With commencement you will leave your high school days behind as you begin a new era in your young lives. We hope that your journey thus far has been a pleasant one, and that it may serve as an inspiration to you as you conquer those untried paths yet along the way. To you, the classes of 1937, I wish a happy future hoping that a strong band will connect your days at North with those that arc to follow.” This is the message carried out of that warm, friendly room to the pages of the 1937 annual, from Mr. Gates to those students who are leaving North, the school to which he has given so much energy. n n 1—jette R.

Promptly at 3:10, 12A seniors from the January class met in room 214 to discuss the new method of doing the senior personals. “This year,’ said Dorothy, “instead of having a little verse about each senior and a list of their activities, let’s have a little informal paragraph in which we will try to include their activities.” Dorothy then gave each member questionnaires which they were to distribute to the members of their home rooms. Each senior was to fill out this questionnaire, and with this information the committee went to work to write up each pupil. While this work was going on, Myrna Albright and Jeanette Olson were assembling the senior pictures. They sent out the proofs to the pupils and checked in the glossies. Dorris Peterson took care of cutting the pictures, mounting them, and planning the pages. With these groups taking care of their respective tasks, it was a simple matter to assemble the roster section. In January, the same procedure was followed for the June class, with the same editors in charge.

MANN January Class Adviser Miss Mann, the January class adviser, smiled happily as she recalled her work with the three hundred and twenty-five mid-year graduates. “The class was outstanding because everyone worked together so harmpniously, she said, reminiscently. She went on to say that the graduates had chosen capable 6fficcrs and committee chairmen. “The members of the class all seemed to have a keen sense of the right and fine ' she continued. “I shall always remember the happy times I had with them; I certainly want to give all of them my warmest and most cordial wishes for success.” Countless friends, former graduates of North, have counted Miss Burgess as their friend. For forty years she taught here; for fifteen years she acted as “A” Senior adviser for the June graduating classes. For that many years she smiled at the happy students, mounting the rostrum to receive their diplomas. We feel sure that she is still smiling gently this June as she secs this class, her last advisory, pass across the platform. Nobility of character was the touchstone by which all her life was measured. In opposition, she manifested honesty and integrity; in cooperation she offered sympathy and eager help. To her, life was a radiant experience; and every student, a living personality. She was happy in her work. With Tagore she might have said, When death comes and whispers to me, ‘Thy days are ended,’ let me say to him, ‘I have lived in love and not in mere time.’ He will ask, ‘Will thy songs remain?’ and I shall say, ‘I know not, but this I know; that often, when I sang, I found eternity.’ i MISS PAULINE FARSETH June Class Adviser In a retrospective mood, Miss Pauline Farseth, who became adviser of the June graduates upon the death of Miss Burgess, sat at her desk recalling her experiences with the class. “An outstanding quality that the class as a whole possesses is that of being mentally alert and wide awake to realities, was Miss Farscth's tribute to the students. Realizing the complications and difficulties that young people have to overcome, the class adviser sends them this message: “Remember that honesty in facing facts is the Erst requisite of a decent life. We know that you will make the world more beautiful and happy than when you found it. Your intelligence, cooperation, courage, and integrity could build up the greatest generation the world has ever seen. [66] RULES GOVERNING NORTH AMERICAN BANK PRIZE 1.

SPORTS The Polaris office was a hubbub of activity. Over in the corner at the sports desk, the editors of the boys’ sports section of the annual, Meyer Schoen-berger, Norman Edberg, and Ted Nordquist, were going over the plans for their section. “We’ve surely got some splendid action pictures this year! exclaimed Meyer. “Yes,” answered Ted, “but we can’t handle the section as it has been handled in previous years. All the writing has to lx- done in conversational style.” “All the more reason,” Norm chimed in, “for us to get started.” “Don’t forget the interviews with the coaches or the picture of the Mercury Medal winner,” Ted said. With this, the boys went into a huddle to make out the assignment sheet. A short time later, Maury Diamond, Joe Katz, Ray Lehrman, and Sid Cohen walked into the Polaris office and halted at the bulletin board, on which was posted the assignment sheet. “I’m to write up the baseball season,” yelled Joe. “Boy, have I got an idea!” and with this he rushed over to a nearby table and started scribbling furi-ouslv. “I see where I do track, said Ray, and then after scanning the sheet further, he turned and called to Joe, “Hey, Katz, you're supposed to write the apparatus.” “Well,” added Maury, “Sid and I share basketball. In the meantime, Wilma Schiff went into a huddle with herself on the girls’ sports. Pulling out the little stool that helped her reach the typewriter keys, she industriously began work.

KENNEDY Our greatest need in athletics at North, asserted Tom Kennedy, for many years in charge of the sports program at the school, is more adequate playground and field space. We have the least room and the fewest facilities of any senior high school in the city, and even less than some of the junior high schools. With the first steps now taken toward enlarging the athletic field and constructing a cinder track, naturally everyone identified with the physical education and athletic work at North feels optimistic. We are hopeful that the handicaps in this respect under which all of us have been working will now be removed, and that our young people will have the same opportunities that are afforded those of other high schools. JOHN J. JACOBI This has been one of the most exciting basketball seasons in history, John J. Jacobi, basketball coach, remarked. “There were many moments that nearly caused me heart failure. The play of the Polars in the West game, the way A1 Quiring fitted into the team when l u Chanen was lost through ineligibility, the play of Leo Knoblauch in the Central and West games have helped ease our disappointment over the Central and Edison defeats. North set a new single game record of sixty points in the West melee, and Bill Lind won the year's individual scoring championship with sixty-nine points by throwing in eighteen points in the final tilt, also a single game record. LEWIS BURNETT Lewis Burnett, track and apparatus coach, when asked about his Northwest championship apparatus team, said, It was without a doubt the best and hardest working team I've ever worked with. Of course, the sophomore basketball team, which I also had the pleasure to coach was no slacker either, winning eight of their games this year. When asked how many games they played, Louie smilingly and modestly answered, eight, and continued to tell about his experiences with the football team, of which he is assistant coach. Yes, I have had a very successful and happy year in this, my first at North, and hope the rest will be as good, the friendly coach concluded after expressing high hopes for his track squad, and walked jovially on his way. CARL W. LARSON Carl W. Larson, the assistant coach of the basketball team and hackficld mentor on the gridiron, when requested for a statement, commented, This season has been an unusually fine one in North High school athletics. On every occasion, both foothall and basketball teams have displayed those admirable qualities of determination, teamwork, modesty in victory, and good sportsmanship in defeat. We view the next year with regret and anticipation— regret, because of many seniors who will lie missing; anticipation, because of the possibilities in the ones who will replace them. I have been greatly pleased and impressed by the fine spirit of cooperation and loyalty shown by all the boys on the squads at all times, said Mr. I arson in all sincerity.

North 7—Roosevelt 0. led was assigned to cover the Roosevelt-North tilt, so he drove out to the game with his pals, Norman and Meyer. The school had evidently changed its location, for they did not reach the field until the spectators were streaming out. Ted cornered a classmate and asked for the final score: “North won 74). Tell us about the game. pleaded Ted. Our attack started to click near the close of the second quarter. Claire took the ball over on the last play of the half. We used a deceptive running play for the extra point. The fans went wild when we scored. “Mow was Roosevelt’s attack? questioned Meyer. They threatened only once during the game, reaching our 35-yard line, but they were stopped there. The entire team played well, but it was our fight and determination which won for us. West 27—North 0. Ted had a long face Monday morning, when he came in to write up the North-West game. An inquisitive SI News student peeked over his shoulder and read: West’s title-contending team over-powered a game Polar eleven 27-0 on the Cowboy gridiron. North students showed their school loyalty by bringing out a larger crowd than West had. The Cowboys registered a touchdown against the Polars in the first two minutes of play, with Cummings taking the ball across. 'ITtcy scored aj-ain in the first period and added two more in the second and third quarters. Bob Krieger of West starred on the offense. Bob Kmcs was the star for the Blue and White as he pulled down the fleet West lucks time after time. The North attack was stopped throughout the game and the defense looked weak; but the Polar fans took consolation in the fact that West had a powerful team and the North eleven went down fighting before a superior foe. North 0—Central 27. Three o'clock! and out of North High dashed Ted, Meyer, and Norman, hurrying to get to Hobbs Field on time. Central was furnishing the opposition in the first home game of the year. Two hours later, the boys trudged slowly from Hobbs Field. Behind them lay the story of the Pioneers 27-0 win over the Polars. Those Central backs were too tough. moaned Meyer. They had a good passing attack, chimed in Norman. “They made their first touchdown on a North fumble, but they scored their second on a long pass. Their final two scores came as results of passes, too. Well, we reached their 15-yard line once on that long pass, Schwartz to O’Neill, consoled Ted, “and Fisher, Wolcott, O’Neil, and Giles played well for us. Edison 27—North 7. Ted was kept at home with a lud cold, so Meyer covered the Edison-North game for his pal. Friday night, Meyer went to Ted’s home with the “dope. Here's looking at you, say the expression of the Polar ball-toting quartet. From left to right. the pigskin-ner arc: Red Clair. Mcrril Slcp-pica, Don Coles, and Bob Kniet.

The charge of the Polar brigade—Bob Knics (33) sweeps the West flank behind the interference of Bobrow (6) and Giles (23). “The first thing I want to know about is the scoring,” said Ted. “Well, I wrote it this way: the Inventors scored in the first quarter when they marched 63 yards with Mcrnick scoring. In the second quarter Carlson scored after a 38 yard march. The third Tommy score came as a result of a Polar fumble on the North 6 and an intercepted pass led to the fourth. North scored after a Tommy punt was partially blocked on the 30 and Knics finally went over from the 8.” “How was our play? “Our attack was better, but our defense still showed weaknesses. Mather, Lind, Knies, and Giles played well. North 7—Washburn 0. Norman gazed with awe at the members of the 1907 championship eleven who were honored guests at the homecoming pepfest. The presence of the old grads must have inspired the 1936 Polars, because they defeated a stubborn Washburn team 7-0 before a huge homecoming crowd. When the fourth quarter started, the boys were about to reconcile themselves to a scoreless tic, when the Blue and White attack, suddenly came to life, 'faking the ball on their own 30, the Polars marched over for a touchdown, with Chalfin scoring. Chalfin also added the extra point. After the game the boys ran down to the gym with the chart of the game. North O—Marshall 14. Where were you after the Marshall game yesterday? asked Ted. I was questioning the spectators about it, replied Meyer, “The fans arc agreed that the 14-0 score did not really represent the true difference between the two teams. However, they always ‘pay off’ on the final score. Let’s see, how did they score?” “The first score came in the second quarter when Mosi-man's pass to Hanson was good. Moore intercepted a pass in the final period and dashed 30 yards for the second touchdown. Otherwise the play between the two teams was fairly even. North 0—South 46. South’s powerhouse was just too much for the Polars to cope with, said Ted, in discussing the South-North game with Meyer. “We lost 46-0 but we went down before a championship eleven and that’s some consolation. “What an attack the Tigers had!” said Meyer. “South had not only tremendous power on the ground but also a great passing attack, 'fhc Ben gals used both methods against us, but made most of their scores through the air. Thompson, their great end, scored four times as both Irgens and Newton passed and ran for long gains.” Schwartz and Gepner played well in the backfield and Fisher played a steady game in the line for North, added Norman. WILLIAM LIND—MERCURY MEDAL WINNER “Kootch has participated in athletics for the past three years on squads of the three major sports: football, basketball, and baseball. He was an All-City selection last spring for the mythical nine at third base, center for the All-City five last winter, and was placed on the second team of the All-City eleven of 1936. He was captain of the Polar quintet and cocaptain of the Blue and White gridders of the 1936 squad. William Lind is the twelfth recipient of the Mercury medal awarded annually to an athlete possessing a high standard of scholastic and athletic achievement throughout his high school career. The award is made by the Mercury Club of Minneapolis which is composed largely of North High school graduates. Those selecting the winner of the coveted award are M. T.

If they can only keep up the pec, they've a good chance to win the game.” Later Ted was not so happy as Edison came back with a second half rally that pulled away from a tired North quint. The Edison quint showed championship form in the second half, scoring 23 points while holding North to 6. North 34—Roosevelt 17. “You won’t be able to go then, Ted? I’ll call you up as soon as I get back and tell you all about it Hello, Ted, this is Norm. We swamped Roosevelt 34-17. Chanen started North on the way to victory with a basket from far out. The Polars went on to lead ll-fi at the half. Leo Knoblauch did a fine job of guarding, holding Mateyko, Teddy ace scorer, to four points until he was removed on fouls late in the game. Ernie Rivers, blond forward, was high pint man for North, with 11 pints. Capt. Bill Lind made 9 to bring his season total to 19 and he is tied for the league scoring leadership. Well, that’s about all. Ted. Hop you get over the ‘snilHcs’ in a hurry. Sec you in school Monday.

The game see-sawed back and forth in the final minutes. First the Millers were ahead 30-29, then it was 31-30 for North as the Polar fans went wild. A basket by Reed King with 30 seconds to go drove the fans into a frenzy. It looked as though it was all over but Lind's basket as the gun went off gave Nonh the nod.” North 28—Marshall 20. Ted picked up Norm at the auditorium where he was on duty for the Polaris, covering the North-Marshall game. Norm was in rather a jovial mood as he prepared to “spill the dop.” Marshall really seared the Polars in today’s game, at least during the first half. North’s offense wasn’t clicking as usual and they let the Cards get away with a Finest Rivers is the recipient of the annual school award for having the best free throw average for the year. His average for the Polar five in the nine important games was .714. The medal is given by Coach John J. Jacobi. Eight victories out of eight conflicts is the distinctive record held by this formidable sophomore squad. Piloted by Coach Burnett, the boys kept their loss column clean in the interschool cage compcution. Back row: Gray, Zieve, Resnick, Callan, Scarlc Middle row: Cameron, Nyberg, Ribnick, Neuberger, Ouiring Front row: Anderson, Lundeen, Abromowitz, Reilly, Schultz 11-10 lead at the half. The Polars certainly put on the heat in the second half as they raced ahead of the plucky Cards with Rivers and Knoblauch in top form.” North 28—Central 37. That sure was a tough one to lose, said Ted looking at the account in the Polaris of the North-Central match. “Those Central scorers knew their night to win. With Peterson popping most of the shots, the Pioneers held a lead through the whole first half. The Polar got their share of baskets in the final half, but Central seemed to do them one better for each bucket. How many points did Lind collect? queried Norm. Lind Lagged 9 points to maintain his average and share honors with Rivers who also stacked up 9 points. North 28—South 27. Norm, sporting a red nose and a sore larnyx, listened to Ted’s crispy comments on the North-South game over the phone. In one of the closest-played games of the year, North just squeezed out South with a last-second frcc-throw and wrecked South’s hope for a basketball title. “The last half was really hectic. Both teams took advantage of their free throws and tied the count at 27 all with but 10 seconds left to play. Ernie Rivers then trotted up to the free throw line and amid a roar from the crowd he sank the shot. Al Quiring played a fine game and shared the scoring honors with Ernie Rivers. North 60—West 33. North really showed everything in that game, Norm remarked to Ted, who covered the wild game between North and West. Everything? exclaimed Ted, why they showed more than that! The game wasn’t long enough, the boys were just getting tuned up! “To tell you the truth though. I really thought the team was in for a licking when West piled up their early lead. Before the Polars got going. West had a 13-4 edge on them. Then North shots rained through almost one a minute as the team grabbed the lead and ran away at the half. “In the last half it was all North. Practically every Polar chalked up points. When Lind found himself, the North score machine treated West miserably. 1 hear a couple of records were made in that game, Norm broke in. “Well, Bill Lind picked off 18 points to gain the city scoring honors, and North’s 60 points is a new team record for points in a single game so North truly played basketball. North 35—Harding 22. In the post-season inter-city jousts. North beat a scrappy Harding High crew, 35-22. Lind and Knoblauch fairly signed, sealed, and delivered a victory to North when they combined to rake up an early Polar advantage. In the first half. North gained a 17-7 lead over Harding High School of St. Paul. For the opponents, Beyer and Wolfe played heroically while Lind maintained his sterling average by pacing the Blue and White w’ith 15 points. These boy� are member of the All-Nation Championship quint. This is the first time the Negro five ha won the title.

Larruping Leo Knoblauch wnashes the cowhide out into the orchard, contributing toward another victory which wan a stepping stone to the diamond championship. Don Norton, signal caller for West, is thoroughly disappointed. BASEBALL 1936 Standing on the comer waiting for the “special to the Marshall tilt, the opening game of the 1936 baseball schedule, Norm and Ted discussed North’s possibilities for the season. “What do you think of the new coach, Arthur Lindman? asked Ted. “Well, answered Norm, “he’s got quite a job on his hands if you ask me, considering how North fared last season, and that he has lost such veterans as Roger Moore, Babe Klauseman, Benny Lyman, Chuck l andis, .O’Neil, Huber, and Berglund. But with the help of Frankie Fust, I’ve a hunch that he’ll turn out a good team. North 6—Marshall 2. At the beginning of the fourth inning, the boys were in a sad mood as the Polars were trailing the Cardinals by the score of 2-0. Did you see that,hit? shouted Ted, as Leo Knoblauch stood up on first base. “Yep, returned Norm, watch those Polars go now. Say, Ted, it’s hard to write and watch .the game from where we’re sitting, you dictate and I’ll write. “Bjorklund is up now—whoops, he got hit by a pitched ball, dictated Ted, “that, brings up Boylan who's playing centcrficld—it’s a single, loading the bases. I hope George Hickey comes through now—a double, a double, Norm, it's a double cleaning the bases! That, isn’t all yet, though, look, Walt Searlc's hit is going through Warner, the Card left-fielder, and it looks like Hickey will score, because Teeter is dropping the throw-in,” returned Norm. “And look, shouted Ted, “Walt is scoring on Arnic Ploof's single. But I guess that’s all the scoring this inning, for Larry Langer just flied out to center field, and there, Cos Egan is grounding.out. “The rest of the game was pretty dull, said Norm after the contest was finished, except for that score in the seventh. Didn't Walt Searlc pitch good hall? He gave them only four hits.” “Well, we take the first game, returned Ted, that’s a good start. After receiving a calling down from the editor for writing up such a big story for the first week, the boys were hurt and the results for the next four games were found under the door one morning, although the boys were nowhere to be found. Their accounts read something like this: The battery mate , Walter Searlc ami George Mickey, hold parley. The brew cooked up in such conference proved poisonous to every other prep nine. [ U8| mm Nipped in the bud i Bob May. Just one of the many svho found it impossible to beat All-City Mickey to the plate. The expression on the Central bench in the background prose this statement. North 14—South 13. North won their second game of .the season against South by the score of 14-13 after being behind most of the game. The Polars were seven runs behind in the last of the seventh and put on a great rally to tic the score at 11 up. Going into, extra innings the Blue and White scored three to their opponents two runs to gain victory. Each team got nine hits and South used three pitchers to North’s four. North 2—Central 1. “In a close battle, the Polars remained undefeated by downing the Ked and Blue from Central, to become the leading contenders for the city title. It was a pitching duel between Scarlc of North and Schneider of Central, both boys displaying exceptional form. North 6—Edison 1. “Behind Walt Searle again, .the North nine gained another victory when they defeated the team from Edison High. After getting to Bcrnic La Fond for all their runs in the first inning, the Polars were held by Joe Mcrnick, Edison relief chuckcr, for the rest of the game. North 8—West 2. “The fifth victory and championship hopes were obtained at the expense of West as North emerged victorious 8 to 2. Timely hitting by Bill Lind, Hank Schwartz, and George Hickey combined with.Searlc's effective pitching assured victory almost from the start. North 9—Washburn 6. A notice on the bulletin board assured the boys that all was.forgiven, and they grabbed the first streetcar they could, intending to arrive at the Washburn-North baseball game. But as they were unaccustomed to using the street railway, they were soon lost and after transferring several times, were surprised to find several of their schoolmates on one of the many strange cars. “Going to the game? asked.Ted, of one whom he knew. Going, heck, returned the acquaintance, we’re coming from it already. Who won? asked Norm. The Polars, of course. answered this newly found information source, by a score of 9 to 6, in a game made hard by the strong wind. North got eleven hits to Washburn’s seven to make victory possible. Co Egan bid adieu lo Molher Earth for awhile a he pcar a Mz .lini drive ticketed for a cinch ba e hit. Happy landing . Cm! [119] North 3—Roosevelt 2. Disappointed over missing the last game, Ted and Norm hustled down to North Commons to see the championship game between North and Roosevelt. Sitting.down determined to hand in the best account of the year, the boys were soon so involved in the thrilling contest, that they forgot all about taking down notes and had to get together after the tilt to collaborate on.a successful account. What a game, said Ted with a sigh of relief, “for a while I thought the home team was going to lose; when those .Teddies scored in the first and again in the second frame, things looked black. Guess the boys came back though, scoring in the second, again in the third on Knoblauch's double, hringing in Lind, $ r Hank Schwartz watches the flight of ing pill after taking a healthy cut. watcher the cowhi«lc on iu merry journey. Refl Hickey hit a clean double to ccnterflehl to clear the base in the Central-North game. and then that ever precious last run when Leo doubled again, sending Eddie Ebel scooting home, ’ returned Norm in one long breath. “That was certainly a good pitching duel, too, between Searlc, who earner through as usual, and John Mateyko of Roosevelt, each boy giving only five hits. Doesn’t it feel grand to go to a school that wins championships? Come on, let's go find out who makes All-City. . The boys found that five boys from the North team had gained first team rating in all mythical teams run by the daily papers. They were Walter “Iron Man Searlc, pitcher; “Larruping Leo Knoblauch, rightfield; Costney Egan, first base; George Hickey, catcher; and Bill “One-man gang Lind, third base.

By the looks of these records, I guess that Werner Schreiber had been North's most consistent point getter.” Will you turn to the next page? asked Norm. I want to see the results of that quadrangular meet. . Well, staled Ted, South won the meet with 45 j points. Marshall was second with 40 4 points, while Roosevelt and North finished in.that order with 33Vi and 25 4 points respectively. As far as I can find, Werner Schreiber captured the Polars' only first place in the 440 yard dash. Who else placed for North? .queried Norman. Kclman took second place in the shot put and the javelin throw; Patterson took third in the high jump; Anderson garnered fourth place in the high .hurdles, and second place in the low hurdles; and Phil Fisher took second place in both the 100 and 220 yard dashes.” As Norm and Ted sat in the Polaris office looking for something to do. they ran across the previous season's track records. It looks as though our . 1936 Blue and White cindermen didn't have such a good year, began Norman. Well, interrupted Ted, these results were due to the lack of material and few returning veterans.. The records show that they failed to capture a meet. Norman’s eye was soon caught by the results of the Polars' first meet.. “Take a look at this, will you? said Norman, as he began reading the article. ‘Having little time to develop, the trackstcrs were able to qualify but two.men for the finals in their first competitive meet, the Metropolitan High School Track Trials. Bob Bjorklund and Leroy Kclman both qualified in the shot put event, though neither one failed to garner a point when the finals were run off.’ Going further on through the records the boys found out that North’s.next meet was with Marshall, but the Polars were on the short end of the score.

SKIING 1937 Hey, Norm,’’.yelled Ted as he ran up to meet his friend after watching North High’s skiers complete a successful campaign in the second annual ski tournament in which all eight prep schools competed, did North ever go to town in that, ski tournament out at Glen wood. Why, did they win the tournament? asked Norman. And how!” replied Ted. They won first and second place in the ski jump, and also won places in the crosscountry .race. How long was the cross-country race? queried Norm. Well, it was four miles long, and the ski jump was sixty feet high, answered Ted. Who coached the team? asked Norm. There wasn’t any coach. The team was taken care of by Paul Gray and Denny Nyberg, who arc the co-captains. How many boys from North competed in the meet? interrupted Norman. “Out of thirty boys, twelve represented North, answered Ted as the boys continued on their way home. GOLF 1936 Our golf team didn't do so well in 1936 did it? .asked Ted of his friend Norm as they walked off the course after watching North lose the annual state golf .tournament. No, I guess not, stated Norman. But you can’t expect us to win the championship every year. Do you know that the team has had the golf title for eleven out of the fifteen years that North has been in competition? Who made up Coach Street’s foursome, asked Ted. There was Dean Keller, Eli Budd, Harold Kurzeka, and Carl Larson. What was the order in which the team ended the season?” asked Ted. Roosevelt’s foursome of Swanson, Carlson, Majerski. and Carrol finished , in first place; West held second, while Edison and Marshall finished in third and fourth places respectively, replied Norman. Do you happen to know who the medalist was? questioned Ted. It was Gene Anderson of West, answered Norm. He had a score of 315 for the four rounds of competition. By the way. Norm, queried Ted, what happened to the Polars on the final day of play? I understand that they had to play the final game with only three men.” “Yes, answered Norm, last minute illness struck Kurzeka, which unfortunately was too late to enable any of the team or Coach Street to be notified. Consequently, North was forced to play with only three men. Although eliminated because of this, the Northmen finished out the final round of play with Keller and Larson carding sparkling 83’s, and Eli Budd coming in with an 87. Below par in score but above par in personality are these linkmen: Keller, Johnson. Kuszeka. Front: Rose. Budd, and I irson. f 122 I Here's one gang of fellows that doesn't mind being called all wet.

SWIMMING 1936 Entering the Y. M. C. A. one day in February, Norm was stopped by a strange moaning coming from one of the dressing rooms. “Somebody drown?” asked Norm. Yep, replied one of the fellows, “the whole North swimming team. First time you’ve lost?” asked the reporter. No, this is the sixth we’ve lost, but the others were by decisive scores, this was by only one point! Think of it, 38-37, to Edison. But be here next week and watch us take it out on Marshall.” Keeping his appointment, Norm came down the next week. After the meet was over, he wrote in his notebook, North defeated Marshall by a 45-29 score, capturing all first places except in the 220 and 100 yard freestyle events. Cornering Coach Lindman, he received the following statement: Though we finished in a tie for sixth place with one win and six losses, I am entirely satisfied with the boys. I have high hopes for next season, although we lose five good men this June, for most of the fellows are sophomores and juniors. TENNIS 1936 “Well, that sure was a drought season for Polar tennis, remarked Norm as he drew up his tennis summary. How’d they come out anyhow? queried Ted, looking up from his work. “The boys gained only two victories, Edison and South, while they dropped five encounters, Central, Roosevelt, West, Washburn, and Marshall. Despite unfortunate losses, Coach Schultz’ first three, Eugene Berlatsky, Jack Bienapfl, and Don Lundeen, who played with the 1935 champ squad, displayed fine showmanship. “How’d this squad compare with previous North tennis crews?” Ted broke in. “To be frank Ted, this was the first time North finished so far down in many years, Norm added as he scribbled 30 at the bottom of his copy. According to Arthur Lindman, who succeeds Coach Schultz at the helm, the prospects for the 1937 squad appear bright. North’s own racquetecrs with their weapons in hand ready for action.

In fact this is the biggest tournament of its kind in the country, and we won first place in class C' and also the all-around championship. “That’s pretty good,” admitted Ted, his attitude slowly changing, “but who were your stars, anyway? We have no exceptional stars on our team, as every one finished very close to the top in a field of over 200, but if you mean the fellows who won medals, 'Mat’ Schaefer, Carl Nelson, Lenard Oveskey, and Leonard Bassis received them in the 'C' class, and Ben SafTrin in the ‘B,’ the rest just missing out, but the whole team got medals for team championship. Well, Coach Burnett deserves plenty of credit for his work, for as I understand it the boys were rated low at the start of the season, commented the reporter. Yep, the boys sure worked hard for ‘Louie,’ and still do for that matter. We’ve improved so much since that Northwest meet, that I'm pretty sure if another meet came along we'd all win medals, and sail away with the championship, enthusiastically agreed the gymnast. “What arc the prospects for next year? asked the news hunter. Do you expect to repeat this year's accomplishments? On paper, it would appear that we would have a weak outfit next year, since we're losing almost all the medal winners at graduation this June; in fact, Ovesky is the only medal winner returning. There were many boys; however, that were almost as good as these fellows who have developed greatly since then, and then there arc boys from the Junior Highs who came at the mid-year and needed a little work to put thjjm in place for first team positions. If the boys work as hard next year, as they did this, you can expect big things of them in all their meets, prophesied the mat-man. “That's something to think about, said Ted, and I’m glad to hear the fellows were rewarded with new uniforms this year.” Yes. that's true, responded the apparatus man, and it gives the fellows on the squad something to live up to. With this picture of modern birdmen flying through the air on this apparatus equipment, Ted went on his way thinking nice things about the apparatus team, their able coach, and the golden placard adorning the North High trophy case. 124 The musclemen unit their stuff” in an assembly period. They can be seen with their equipment which includes nuts, parallel hars, horses, and horizontal bars. Warning! Not res| on%iblc for damage resulting from these boys lefts and rights, for they arc the kings of North High boxing in their respective weight-classes. Left to right: Frank Hynes, welterweight: Red” Claire, middleweight; Vincent Rooney, featherweight: Dick Rice, lightweight, and Frank 'Wolinski, bantamweight. BOXING 1936 It was a beautiful spring day when Ted entered the gym locker-room, as was his daily custom, and saw to his amazement, lying on a bench, a battered individual. “Did you get hurt?” asked the inquiring reporter. “Trying to rub it in? answered the apparent victim and he led with a left that sent Ted sailing through the swinging doors into a neatly constructed boxing ring. Then Ted realized, as he dizzily heard the announcement of the finals to be held the following evening, that this was the annual North High boxing tournament and he had confronted one of the many victims of the elimination matches. Rushing through his supper and hurriedly bandaging his injured jaw, Ted rushed to school the next night to cover the finals of this event. Finding all sitting and even standing space taken, he had to lie content with an uncomfortable scat 'on the rail of the balcony and copy his very valuable notes on his knee. After the last fray, Ted sat down to decipher what he had written and this was what resulted from his efforts: James “Red Clair took charge in the heaviest or middleweight division, defeating Francis Gates who throughout the tournament displayed spirit although he started poorly. Frank Hynes using skillful boxing, conquered Fred Brown, the favorite in the welterweight class; Dick Rice proved the best in the lightweight group when he knocked out Lincoln Gaskcll. Vincent Rooney won the championship in the featherweight class, knocking out Lawrence Wright. Frank Wolinski outpointed Phil Cogswell for the bantamweight throne, and Sam JafTcc was acclaimed victor in the lightest division—the flyweight. In the corner of his paper, Ted had jotted down, See who wins the Edclston Trophy. Verifying his choice two weeks later, he found that Dick Rice was declared the recipient of the trophy, chosen because of his undisputed victories, in gaining the lightweight title. Other qualifications by which this winner was measured included: popularity in the boxing class, good scholastic standing, and great improvement in boxing work. Dick Rice sport the Etlel-ston award of which he was the proud recipient. I 125 ) The sky's the limit at All-City play day!

Certainly not,” replied Wilma. They arc the directing body of girl’s athletics who make rules, arrange the sport program, and head the various sports. By purchasing some new equipment for the gym they aroused much interest. A hike, Christmas party, Valentine party, and a tea at Central were a few outstanding activities. What honors do girl athletes achieve?” “Each sport finds Ci. A. A. girls eager to begin earning points. After obtaining 300 team points and 200 individual points, a girl is ready to receive her N.’ An All-City Emblem is the award ahead. Participating in all sports, and serving on the Board helps the ambitious athlete to win 700 team points and 300 individual points. To be an all-around girl and an All-City Emblem winner is the hope of every G. A. A. girl. Beaming proudly. Shirley Bergh. Bernice Abram- ,n.

SPEEDBALL SWIMMING After attending eight spccdball practises, and passing skill and rule tests, the girls were ready for the real fun. A tournament followed with four teams represented: the Trojans, Incas, Gophers, and Golden Bears. At the end of two weeks the Golden Bears and the Incas were due to fight it out for the championship. Wilma was also due to cover the game and to report to three teachers. “Of all nights to have to be kept after school,” she exclaimed. You'll have to take over the game until 1 conic out. “That's all right with me,” said Charlotte assuringly. “I was going to watch it anyway. Meet me in the gym at five and I’ll tell you about it from pass to pass. Wilma came running into the gym, late as usual, but still in a rush. Who gets the congratulations this time? she called. “The Incas are spccdball champs and won by a 7-5 score, announced Charlotte proudly. The girls met in the gym and went out to the field for their game. Miss Haveson anti Miss Eckdahl helped referee and supervise. It was a close and hard fought game. All the girls played well, and you should have seen the thirty yard kick Orpha McCarthy made which scored a field goal. Was it very cold playing outside? asked Wilma. “Yes, said Charlotte, but the girls dressed warmly and kept moving. ‘Havic’ was all rigged out in a real outfit. She couldn't have caught a cold if she tried—we actually had to count her by layers! I bet it was funny to sec them play bundled’up so,” said Wilma laughing. Of all the games to miss, it would be that one, but I’ll surely make it next year. ' Armed with water-wings, inner tube, inflated duck, and her pencil and pad, Wilma entered the Lincoln swimming pool in time to witness another swimming meet. After watching the girls practise their strokes and dives in the “briny deep. Wilma was inspired to join them in their antics. Tag, baseball, and novelty 'swimming and diving contests helped to pass part of the period and then came time for each girl and her partner to practice their lifesaving skills. Eight practices entitle a girl to 50 individual points and she can earn 150 extra points for Senior Lifesaving tests. Mrs. Moc, Lincoln junior gym instructor, helped the group of aspiring mermaids. With her aid Shirley Locketz, Anna Ik-1 lc Lindstrom, Zora Levine, and Lorraine Peterson successfully passed their senior life saving and as a reward were entitled to pins, badges, and cards. Swimming, held on Wedneday nights, is one sport which continues throughout the whole year. Some girls go out for points and others to pass swimming tests. Block that pass! is the cry a Ruth Chubbic, with the spccdball in her hands, attempts to throw it successfully to her teammates. These Rirls, poised by the free throw lane, arc ready for action if Elizabeth Kozak should miss the hoop. BASKETBALL BICYCLING Betting Wilma that she would secure the most information for their basketball story, Charlotte entered the gym in hopes of winning a soda at her friend’s expense. Sophomore practises on Tuesday and Thursday were well attended this year,” began Helen Ross, who had charge those nights. Charlotte Cutts headed the juniors and seniors, and a lively group played its games on Monday and Wednesday. Now tell me about your round robin tournament and tests,” said Charlotte. The six teams were the Flashes, Aces, Hi-Lites, Speeders, stars, and Pointers,” continued Helen. Fifteen games were played and the Aces came through with the highest score of thirty-eight points. They won all of the five games which they played. As for the test, it consisted of basketball rules and plays. Evelyn Olson was the only girl who made a perfect score in the test and she also holds the record for making the most baskets during a single game.” “Help! Stop me!” was the cry Charlotte heard. Glancing around, she saw an unlucky bicycling enthusiast wrap herself around a tree. I’m out to earn fifty points in this sport and such a time as I am having! said the unfortunate one as Charlotte helped her to arise. Some girls arc riding for their own pleasure, others are trying to take off a few pounds, but I want to learn how to sit on a bike without falling off.” How do you earn your points?” asked Charlotte. The girls ride after school and later report to Dorothy Erpenhack as to the number of riding hours. Fifteen girls have already received points. Margaret Christiansen, Helen Ross, Dorothy Erpen-ck, Shirley Locketz, and Sophie Leader just returning from another bicycling practice after piloting themselves safely over many bumps. H29] Charlotte Bracken and Audrey Bjorklund give final instructions before the start of another volleyball game. The large group at the right awaits its turn on the floor. VOLLEYBALL “The gym has turned into a menagerie with tigers, wildcats, and gophers turned loose! shouted Charlotte. “What are you talking about?” questioned Wilma. The volleyball tournament, of course,” was the answer. “Those are the names of the teams, and I watched some of the games in the tournament tonight. Each team plays its first half and completes the game after all have had their turn on the floor. Audrey Bjorklund and Charlotte Bracken head the sport this year.” BADMINTON “Badminton is more popular this year than ever before, said Ruth Golden, sport head, to Polaris’ inquiring reporter. “Harriet Holmes and I have registered more than fifty girls who have to play in shifts. It is an individual sport and any girl fulfilling requirements is awarded 50 points towards her N’ or Emblem.” Miss Denning, in charge, demonstrated the game and helped the girls with their positions and strokes. Completing practises, tournaments were held on Tuesday and Friday and the scores handed in. The next week, winners played winners for closer competition.

Is my stroke improving though? Miss Denning had lined the beginners up and was teaching them their elementary strokes. Swinging their Indian clubs energetically, aspiring beginners practised their serve, forehand, and backhand strokes. Advanced players continuing from last term, learned the American Twist serve and spent their time perfecting their rudimentary strokes. Doris Speiser and Adeila Prozck, heads of tennis, not only checked practises but also assisted Miss Denning in coaching the players on the North Commons tennis courts. A ladder tournament was started, but because of unfavorable weather conditions it never reached completion. Practises, skill tests, and tennis games were the point system set-up with twenty-three girls achieving points. Charlotte entered the library after school and discovered Wilma scanning the depths of a dictionary. “Golf starts after school, explained Wilma, “and we girls have to bring the craziest things! Here’s the list: a driver, hrassie, No. 2 midiron, mashic and putter. You’re a pretty fair driver so I can bring you. I presume mashic is the slang expression for potato masher and putter, a gadget to make a motor boat ‘putt. The one word I can’t find is No. 2 midiron. Half the words arc missing from this dictionary! The girls were delighted with the sport and turned out every Monday and Wednesday for lessons. This general study gave them a fair knowledge of everything. Miss Have-son not only taught them all the strokes, but also corrected their positions, lectured on golf courses, golf etiquette, and rules. Audrey Duggan was outstanding in her progress and was the only girl to earn her total of 100 points. Out of the group of thirty-three girls, sixteen received points. ( OLF CLUB SWINGSTERS!

MODERN DANCE CLUB As Wilma peeked through the gym door, she was delighted by the sight she beheld. Girls everywhere were leaping, jumping, and laughing—a picture of gay youth. Come in, called Miss Haveson. This is the Modern Dance club having its meeting. Different isn’t it? We have no officers to conduct our gatherings, but if you wait you can sec for yourself what is done.” Wilma remained as the girls assembled, dressed in their cadet blue leotards. The meeting was opened with variations of runs and leaps, and old business followed in the form of exercises to develop body control. New business was not to be neglected, so the girls worked on a comical group composition. When adjournment came, everyone took showers, and the meeting was over. FACULTY COACHES Here arc the girls’ athletic guiding stars. Miss Esther Haveson and Miss Elcen Denning, as they pause from their respective sports to pose for a picture. They advise G. A. A. Board activities, teach physical education to the girls, and supervise all girls’ sports at North. While changing her tap shoes at the conclusion of another class, Miss Esther Haveson decided to become a “globe-trotti r,” and this summer vacation will see her motoring to New Mexico. After studying at Bennington College under the direction of Martha Graham, “Havie introduced Modern Dance to No-th girls. Golf, volleyball, and spccdball are her after-school sports At this time Miss Elcen Denning confided that even as a li:clc girl she dreamed of being a physical education instructor. 1 he summer months find her horseback riding or in the North wo Js where this outdoor woman’s interest centers about a girls’ camp. Miss Constance Eckdahl had charge of sport classes last fall in the absence of Miss Denning, who was in Massachusetts on a leave of absence. [ 132] STUDENT ACTIVITIES Leaving the meeting of the Annual Staff, Sara Lebedcff, Student Activities Editor, wandered about the corridors seeking a novel way for the candid cameraman and student reporters to photograph and write up the activities section of the yearbook. Musing along in this manner, she accidentally stumbled upon a club meeting held in the basement. As many of her friends were members of that organization, she was invited to attend the meeting. With curious eyes and eager ears she watched and listened, becoming more and more interested in the functions of this club. She left the room greatly pleased to have been able to participate in the enjoyable activities of others. How grand it would be, she thought, if all the other students of North were given that same opportunity. It was the birth of an idea. Greatly excited, she ran to find her assistants, Margaret Weiskopf and Ingrid Brostrom; and together they mapped out a plan whereby a reporter would attend one meeting of a club and write an account of what occurred on that particular day. The photographer would accompany the reporter and take a picture of the activities of the meeting. Sara added to her staff Connie Norman, Eleanor Felsenberg, Mary Jane Swanson, Helen Larson, Ethel Baron, and Wilma Schiff so that the various clubs of the school could be visited by people who did not belong and would, therefore, be able to bring to the readers an interesting account of a stranger’s reaction to the activities of an organization unknown to him. The alignment sheet is the ccn--er of interest for these annual 'ditors: Margaret Weiskopf.

An assembly of Student Council members such as this meets weekly under faculty adviser, Mr. Melvin Olson, for the purpose of discussing' student problems and planning student activity. STUDENT COUNCIL—Sara entered the meeting room of the Student Council with the secretary, Eunice Lindberg. Her manner was stately and dignified as befitted one who was to attend a session of North's governing body. She took her scat as the president, David Satz, called upon the various committee chairmen to make their reports. It was then that she learned of the courtesy committee, headed by Dean Mead, which is responsible for numerous activities which make the school neater, cleaner, and more attractive. The chairman of the traffic committee reported on the functions of stairway and corridor guards. A report on the noon movies which arc sponsored by the council was given by the finance committee. The council treasurer, Marion Forcstal, heads the committee. An “open house” P. T. A. meeting presents many scenes such as this one with head usher. Ingrid Brosirom, assisting somebody's mother and dad. The point system was brought up during the business meeting. Sara, listening attentively, learned that a specific number of points is allotted for membership in any school club. Club officers receive more points: no two like offices may be held by any student. The number of points which a pupil may carry is determined by the marks which he receives. The system was established for the purpose of permitting only those who keep up with their class work to participate very widely in extra-curricular activities. Also discovering at the meeting that the Student Council now is in charge of service work, Sara wandered about the halls afterwards in order to see how many of these workers she would find. Her first encountering of evidence was a corridor guard who politely asked to see the pass permitting her to walk through the halls during the class periods. Girls who taught classes at Phyllis Wheatley included: Row one—Goslin, Hubbard, Brands, Brostrom, Knaurt; row two—Anderson, Steinmetz, Hinote, Hamilton; row three—Johnson, Bailiff, Fox, Winslow. Anderson. Beaming faces . . . these arc the result of a successful sunlitc on which the committee has worked hard. This is the Student Council fall social committee headed by Connie Norman. The members are John Storm. Charlotte Bracken. Carl Benson. Connie Norman, Clifford Wellman, and Marjorie Johnson. Penny, please —this is the plea of the noon movie ushers as students rush into the auditorium. The head usher is Marion Forcstal on the extreme right and the other two are Louise Engstrom and Mary Peterson. She explained to Sara that girls from North who arc interested in service work go to the settlement house once each week. Different days arc set aside for such subjects as clay modeling, art, music, dancing, and others. The girls act as teachers to the small colored children. As Sara thanked Ingrid and turned to continue on her way, she met a friend who was doing an errand for the office clerks. The girl explained that she was called an office page and that she had other duties which include alphabetizing the cards for attendance and programs, filing, looking up records, counting records, and putting mail into the teachers’ boxes. Sara’s last stop before returning to the Polaris oflicc was the girls’ rest room where she found a young lady, working for service points, whose duty was to see that those coming to the room had admittance passes and that the rest room was kept in proper condition. The many sudents receive a definite number of points for each Approaching the auditorium, Sara stopped to inquire about the electricians, who make the lighting effects seen upon the stage, and about the stage force which is responsible for setting up scenery, moving stage properties, taking care of curtains, footlights, and any other details necessary in use of the auditorium. These members, she learned, also work under the service system. Walking by study hall 228, Sara spied, through the door, a monitor who was checking attendance in the room and informing, by means of absentee slips, the home room teachers of those who were absent without excuse. Sara entered the room and asked the service worker whether she might speak to Ingrid Brostroin, who heads Phyllis Wheatley service work. At the time, Ingrid was busily checking over the list of ushers for a P. T. A. meeting that evening. These ushers, diessed in white uniforms with blue scarfs, usher at all school functions where they are needed. Ingrid looked up from her work, however, and offered to tell Sara about Phyllis Wheat-ley work. Behind the stage, these members of the stage and electric force arc busy working every time North students arc privileged to enjoy any stage performance. The stage force is headed by James Colvin.

If they compile 100 points, they arc eligible for service pins which are presented at graduation. Sara talked to Dean Mead and learned that every term a Courtesy Week is sponsored by the Student Council. Many devices were used to stress courtesy throughout the building the week of April 10-16. Each morning a different quotation was published in the bulletin, and later written on the blackboard in each room. These quotations, which dealt with the wearing of hats in the halls, keeping the floors clean, whistling, running in the halls, and the conduct in the lunchroom and audi torium were read and commented on by the teacher and students every day during that week. Many clever posters illustrating rules of courtesy were placed about the building. Mr. Olsen, Student Council adviser, spoke to the teachers during a meeting, and Dave Werlick gave a short speech to the student body during a Council auditorium period. The courtesy committee consists of the following: Helen Ross, Cal Mooers, George Engstrom, Bernice Larson, Doris Schmidt, and Neal Brederson. A Student Council sunlight was held to climax the event of Courtesy Week. An entertaining floor show was given featuring Jerry Hcaly, Jean and Rita Pouliot, and Bernard Guidcr. Door prizes and a prize waltz were also a part of the dance. The Student Council social committee was in charge of the affair. The members arc Jane Peters, chairman; Fred Hass, Carol Pierson, Betty Schmidt, and Sheldon Gcnslcr.

GIRL SCOUTS—Every Tuesday, after school, finds the Girl Scouts busy in room 3. When Helen dropped in one day, she found them busily engaged with beadwork. Handicraft is a popular occupation at their meetings. They also continually strive to earn merit badges toward raising their scouting ranks. This Tuesday, Miss Jean Drum, the scout leader, and thi older girls were discussing the training of new members Their objective was to give the “tcndcrfcct a chance t« become full-fledged scouts.

HI-Y CHAPTERS—As the hands of the clock showed seven, Kenneth Latta, president of North's seven Hi-Y chapters, called for order. George, the inquiring reporter, seated himself in the back row and greeted several of his acquaintances among the one hundred and thirty boys gathered for the meeting. The meeting was opened by a brief session of song led by Don Petersen, a former president of North Hi-Y clubs, who called the roll of clubs: Veritas, Acmy, Royalc, Primus, Zenith, Forem, and Ipsilon. The boys joined in with enthusiasm as old and new songs were sung. During the business meeting which followed, various coming events were planned such as steak fries and parties. Roger Anderson, the chairman of the athletic committee, gave his report on how the basketball tournament was progressing. Other committee heads reported new developments in their work. After the closing of the business meeting, the speaker of the evening was introduced. He was Myron Leslie, instructor of mathematics at North. In his talk, Mr. l cslie pointed out the advantages of belonging to such a character club as the Hi-Y. He went on to state that the companions that arc made in high school will influence the rest of a student's life and that he knew of no better place to cultivate wholesome friendships than in an organization like the Y. M. C. A. George was deeply impressed by the serious regard with which the boys showed toward the remarks of the speaker. The meeting was closed by Kenneth Nelson who led the group in devotions. As George visited among the various groups of fellows that were gathered around the room, he came across Earl Johnson, the president of Royalc Chapter, who invited him to their chapter meeting which was going to be held the following Tuesday evening. He also received invitations to several other chapter meetings. On the following Tuesday George entered Patrick Henry Junior High where the Royalc chapter holds its meetings. As he entered the room, the boys were discussing the coming banquet with the girls from Blue Triangle which was to be held at the downtown Y. M. C. A. The chairmen of the Lenten Committee was called upon for his report of the weekly Lenten Service. These meetings arc held the six Wednesdays before the Easter vacation. The club was commended for the excellent attendance at the joint meeting of the two character clubs, Hi-Y and Mcnorah which was held the first Tuesday in March. At this meeting Ralph Piper of the University of Minnesota showed the pictures of the Minnesota football team of 1936. As George reviewed in his mind the various activities with which the Hi-Y is affiliated and the topics of the evening, he understood why Hi-Y is one of the largest organizations at North. Hosca Osterhus, Arihur landman. “Hank” Rutledge, Bushy Mooers, and Dan F.lmcr were in charge of directing the Hi-Y summer camp, Ihduhapi. Friends and fellow leaders were Kenny” Latta. all-school president, and Bill Seftinjea. There was friendly competition in this ;amc of badminton between camp leaders Art Lindinan and Hosea Osterhus.

SILVER TRIANGLE—Lucille, as fall-term program chairman, thought it would be easy to write up her own club for sophomore and “B” junior girls. Canvassing the officers, she found that Jean Stevning, president, had been much impressed by the Work-shop Conference held at Lyman Lodge last September. Marjorie Johnson, vice-president, and Dorothy Mac Gab-bert, treasurer, stated that their favorite Silver programs had been the style show from Donaldson’s and the talk by Mr. Morris, a probation officer. Another big Silver Triangle event was the farewell banquet at which the spring officers, Mar-loric Johnson, president; Corrine Eastlund, vice-president; Helen Fabienke, secretary, and Martha Jayne, treasurer, were initiated. Miss Mobroten, North High librarian, and Miss McKinnon, “Y” secretary, arc club advisers. BLUE TRIANGLE—With a pencil back of her ear, notebook in her hand, Connie ran from her sixth period class to attend a Blue Triangle meeting. Connie, as a member, knew that the Blue Triangle is a Christian club, oper. to all girls in IIA or 12A or B with at least a “C” average. Pom-pom for talc!

Mary Peterson, the newly elected president, introduced the other cabinet members—Gladys Larson, vice-president; Mary Alice Campbell, secretary; and Audrey Bjorkland, treasurer. The faculty advisers arc Miss Jessie Abbott, Miss Mathilda Krefting, and Miss Mary Walkup, who were also introduced at the meeting. Miss Elva McKinnon, the “Y Counsellor told about the Girl Reserve’s properties. She also discussed the various activities. of the club which included sponsoring Lenten services with Hi-Y groups, a joint meeting with Kadi-mah, a world fellowship dinner party with the Hi-Y, a recognition service for new members, and several entertaining supper meetings. The next time Triangle met, Connie went to the “Y on Fremont and Broadway for a supper meeting. These suppers arc prepared by members of the supper committee assisted by the advisers. The girls gather 3round the piano, sometimes dance, or chat in an informal manner after a short business meeting. The supper, which usually consists of a hot dish and desert is then served. One of the favorites of the suppers is chow mein and cherry pie. Then comes the fun—the dishes arc done by the service committee. Camping Days arc here again. Back row: Speiaco, Pennington.

KADIMAH— Urn, that fudge was delicious!” exclaimed Ingrid to Margaret and Sara as they made their way from the candy stand set up by Kadimah. Sara and Margaret, members of the club, were not the complete strangers t iat Ingrid was, and they determined to tell her about its activities. “Kadimah, began Margaret, “is the Jewish Girls’ Character Club at North. To be a member, a girl must have the character requisites set up by the organization and must h vc at least a ‘C’ average in her school work marks. The initiation ceremony, whicl in the spring is held at the Beth El Synagogue accompanied by an elaborate sup r meeting, is looked forward to by every Kadimah girl for it is one of the n beautiful affairs of the club. “Kadimah girls take part in many events. They act as corridor guard- at school during the fourth period and do other work for various teachers in he building.” It is a custom for Kadimah to contribute to the Community Fund, as veil as to the Jewish Federation. The organization also presents a prize to one of the outstanding Hebrew school graduates.” Ingrid, learning that Kadimah docs so much service work, turned to Margate and asked, “But don’t you have any parties?” [H4] Margaret smilingly answered her by explaining that the girls hold holiday parties and have an annual joint party meeting with Mcnorah. They also hold a social gathering with Blue Triangle every spring. She went on to tell Ingrid that the girls also had a great deal of fun making blue and white novelties for football games and color day. The girls looked around. Barbara Kohn was presiding. Margaret continued, “We have already given two dozen new books to Beth El Synagogue. It seems to me that we ought to begin to raise some money. Soon after the business started, the members decided to hold a bridge party in order to raise the necessary sum. As they left the meeting, Ingrid confided to her companions, “That was really one of the most orderly gatherings I have ever attended. - '■ - The pensive expression on the faces of these Mcnorah board members is symbolic of the weighty problems that rest on their able shoulders. Back row is Satz, Klein man. Rosenbaum. Brown stein, Goodman, Laidcrman. From row: Katz, Barnett, Gutt-man, Litow, Garber. Litinsky. MENORAH—Sara suddenly developed a streak of shyness on the afternoon that she was to attend a meeting of Mcnorah, North's all-Jewish boys' club, so she took Margaret along to ward off any self-consciousness. They were ushered in by a great burst of applause, which, however, was not- for them, but for the entrance of the president. Max Litow. The girls found the main topic of discussion on that afternoon to be unusually interesting as it concerned a future Kadimah and Mcnorah joint meeting to be held some evening at the Beth El Synagogue. TTtcy planned to have a noted speaker during the first part of the program and finish it with talented entertainers. Refreshments and dancing were to conclude the evening’s festivities. Other business at the meeting concerned the qualifications for the recipient of the Mcnorah Shield which is mnually presented to the most outstanding )cwi$h boy it North by Mcnorah, the Jewish boys’ character club. The visitors almost lost their lady-like dignity as they vatchcd a group of boys present a very clever pantomine kit. Margaret suggested that they give the skit at a vadimah meeting. During the intermission between acts, Margaret turned o one of the members and inquired about the other ctivitics of the organization. Her neighbor explained to ter that Mcnorah usually received the concession for clling candy at the home football games. The club, she vas told, also has a regular Friday afternoon practice during the basketball season and has picked a team which plays other teams on the North Side. The visitors were also informed that very shortly the club would continue its work under new officers who had recently been elected. The president for the spring term was to be Norman Guttman, while the positions of secretary and treasurer were to be filled by Joe Katz and Thomas Barnett, respectively. The girls were left with the impression that the club has not only a good sense of humor, bu.t also capable officers, for the president and associates, Julius Stone, Thomas Barnett, and Donald Litinsky carried on the meeting in a smooth and interesting manner. A tense dramatic point in a Mcnorah production is here shown with Max Litow acting as the doctor in the house.

Room 214, the place in which each week a new Polaris Weekly is born, was a hive of activity.

LA TERTULIA—A very Spanish atmosphere prevailed this December afternoon as Elinor joined La Tertulia to celebrate a typical Spanish Yulctidc. The group centered around traditional pinata,” a clay jar filled with gifts for all present. BANK CASHIERS—Ingrid took the place of her home room Bank Cashier on Tuesday morning and discovered how the work was carried on. She learned that each floor had a captain who supervised the cashiers on that particular floor. The basement wai headed by Clare Arnoldy, the first floor by William Johnson, second floor b) Thomas Hanson, and third floor b Vivian Thomas. The entire banking system of the school was directed bi Betty Bergren and Harriet Hcchtc: who collected and recorded the mono and sent it to the bank. They were ad vised by Miss June McLaird. This term a banking poster contcs was held in the building. This fete was La Tertulia’s season’s highlight. The meetings arc conducted, as much as is possible, in the native language of Castile. The officers for the fall semester were Richard Hagen, Howard Dukclow, Betty Lou Ayers, and Patrick Hitchcock.

PARK BOARD—At the end of the hall, grouped about the tablet on which names of North High World War dead arc inscribed, Elinor saw a reverent body of students. They were hearing members of Park Board pay tribute to North alumni who lost their lives for their country. The impressive scene left her in deep admiration for the Park Board, the club which, she later learned, is the oldest service club in the building. That fragrant bit of green seen in each room throughout the building is kept verdant through its efforts. The Park Board also plans the annual Arbor Day activities and supervises the planting of the trees. The organization is under the guidance of Miss Elizabeth Foss and was headed for the year by Margaret Winship. IDUNA—“Well, this won’t be a difficult write-up,” thought Ingrid as she visited the Iduna club of which she is the treasurer. The president, Carl Benson, called the meeting to order, and Miss Lundeen, the faculty adviser, asked permission to speak about a Christmas party she had in mind. “At South High,” she began, “the members of the Swedish club hold an annual ’julfcst'; Swedish refreshments are served, and names arc drawn for presents. What do you think of this idea? Everyone thought it a “grand idea. A motion was soon passed that there should be such a party before the Christmas vacation. The meeting ended with a reading from “Sweden, the Middle Way, by Marquis Childs. These Swedish students are gathered at a meeting of the Iduna Club. Row one: Larson. Hagelin, Olson. Row two: Uggla.

They entered the room just as the members were beginning to sing the “Marseillaise. When the business discussion began, Ingrid was delighted to hear the officers, Joe Katz, Dclpha Nelson, and Bernice Peterson speak in the French tongue. LATIN CLUB—A candleiighted table, bedecked with colorfully tempting delicacies, stood at the back of the room. In front of it was assembled the Latin club, whose December meeting took on Christmas garb. Litae feriae,” the Latin holiday greeting was on the tongues of all as they exchanged salutations. This meeting was the highlight of the year for the Latin club, whose members are students of classic Latin. The group was lead by Elinor Fclsenberg during the fall, and Dorothy Hanley presided over the spring meetings. The club strives to bring its members into a closer contact with Roman life and culture and bring about a stronger bond of fellowship among those studying Latin, under the advisership of Miss Ida V. Mann. She learned that the purpose of the club was to create wider interests of the customs, traditions, and language of France. During the latter part of the meeting, it was decided to have a chalk talk concerning the organization given at a future meeting. Plans were also made to have many novel social functions as part of the club’s spring program. The intelligentsia of the Latin club: First Row—Koontz, Wood, Bailiff.

Margaret had looked forward for days to this trip to an unknown region. The girls were shown to an advantageous place by Miss Pauline Farseth, adviser of the club. The program was quite short; it consisted of a piano solo, a dance, and a reading. This is the best part of all,” whispered Roy Boe. Its forfrisl ninger” The girls agreed with him when they tasted delicious Norwegian fatting man's og anne smabrod. This repast was followed by election of new officers: President, Gordon Dahle; secretary, Margaret Iverson, and program chairman, Audrey Draxten. Roy Boe was re-elected editor of the Norse Saga published by club members. COMMERCIAL CLUB—Margaret knew that there was no being late for a Commercial club meeting. She made a dash for a seat in the front row and asked her neighbor for information. The Merry Commercialists,” she began, “is open to all students taking the commercial course; its object is the promotion of the educational, commercial, and social advancement of the commercial students of North High school. All was quiet as Marian Guclkcr, president for the spring term, arose. The feature of that meeting was a style review, and Margaret was informed by her neighbor that all the meetings aimed to prepare the girls for the business world upon graduation. Other spring officers were vice-president, Anne Rovner; secretary-treasurer, Alice Halverson. For the fall term, they were, president, Helen Kozicky; vice-president, Kathryn Patterson; secretary-treasurer, Marian Olson. Miss Severena Holmbcrg is chairman of the advisers. Dancers . . .

CAMERA CLUB—With her camera in one hand, Mary Jane ran down the stairs and in to the chemistry room, where Miss Putnam, club adviser, stood with a group of club members, displaying snapshots. When John Walker, president, and Vivian Shonbcrg, secretary, had taken their places in front of the room, a short business meeting was held. The remainder of the meeting was turned over to the program committee, Reynold Flom and Aldor Carlson. Miss Johnson, art teacher, spoke briefly on Balance in Pictures. Mary Jane kept thinking what fun it would be to show perfect snapshots to her friends and say, “Of course, I took them. I printed them, too!” Silverman. Mapes, Carlson, Svcum, Quody. Officers: J. Walker, president: C. Cults, secretary. SCIENCE CLUB— Do you mean to say I have to write about science club meeting? inquired Margaret. “Why I don’t know a thing about science! How'cvcr, she soon found herself in Room 5 amid science club members. Wallace Bclin, the president of the group, called the meeting to order, and the secretary, Wilma Shiflf, read the minutes. Business was discussed, and the demonstrations followed in which Lewis Gasink tested water for hardness, and hydrochloric acid for calcium carbonate. An open forum followed, and Margaret left the meeting feeling that she had learned some facts she had not known before. RADIO CLUB—“W9TDE calling New York . . . calling New York . . . Hey, fellows I think I’ve got something here.” Someone closed the door of the radio room, and all was silent that no sound might disturb the connections. Such a tense and exciting atmosphere prevailed that even the reporter was stirred and excited. The boys have their own amateur broadcasting: booth whose call letters are W9TDE. Discussion, reports, and experiments develop their particular interests. Those who have amateur operators’ licenses may do transmitting on a small scale through a system of code. Jesse M.

CAMPFIRE GIRLS—Because Mary Jane always had been curious to know of the club activities of the Campfire Girls, she was right on the dot when they held a meeting in room 302 at three o’clock. All the girls arc working for honors, so of course, they use meetings to discuss ways of earning the coveted titles of Wood Gatherer, Fire Maker, and—greatest of all, Torch Bearer. Summers at Camp Tanadoona and Ceremonial meetings with the members dressed in Indian garments and wearing symbols make an interesting program for Campfire. Miss Seder is the adviser, and Denise Burmcistcr is club president. SETON HI—“What a quiet, peaceful scene!” exclaimed Sara to Ingrid as they tiptoed their way into the sanctuary of the North High knitters. Only the uneven click, click of the needles could be heard; so, hardly daring to breathe, they sank down in the back row and motioned to the president, Dorothy Bourbcau, to give them some information. “The Seton Guild is similar to the Y. W. C. A.,” she explained. “Our aim is to spread good cheer. We plan to hold several ‘get together’ parties. A spring frolic will take place sometimes in March or April.” CHESS CLUB—Of course, Connie didn’t know beans about chess, a very complicated game, so she was the audience at the club’s Wednesday afternoon game. Ordinarily the games arc played in the teachers’ lunch room, but sometimes the boys play at he Minneapolis Chess Club. The Chess club is made jp of twelve boys who play the chess teams of other ichools. Last term they were city champions. Allen Noodleman was custodian. THE ORCHESTRA—North’s Pride—Mr. Elmer Gadbois picked up his violin and played through the concert piece with the orchestra. The organization was beginning to practice for the annual state music contest which is held every spring at the University of Minnesota. Besides participating in this contest, the orchestra plays for many of the special programs presented throughout the school year. This year, they played at both class graduations, the two class plays, operetta, and oratorio. An auditorium featuring the orchestra is usually presented at some time during the school term. Orchestra members arc chosen by Mr. Gadbois from the beginners’ string class and from the incoming junior high pupils. In the fall term, Robert Hoban was chosen concert master and in the spring, Marian Offcrman. North High's Band, cheerleader , and Major Lee all take part in helping to arouse enthusiasm at a pre-football season pep-fc t. THE BAND—North’s Joy—Helen gazed with awe upon the band members as they filed into the auditorium for practice. Her neighbor seemed to know just what was taking place, so Helen questioned her as to the band's activities. Each morning,” replied her informant, the group arranges the stage and practices various selections for future programs. The band plays at auditorium periods, P. T. A. meetings, operettas, class plays, and nearly all other school functions. They also participate in contests with other bands of the city and state, she continued. At present, they arc practicing 'Finale', which they plan to present as their entry in this year’s competition.” The girl also told Helen that each spring a group is selected for playing and marching ability by Mr. E. L. Gadbois, band director, to play at football games. She later found out that during the North Central Music Educators’ Convention in Minneapolis held the week of April 5-10, the band played in a national hook-up over KSTP. The band was also scheduled to play at the high school performance to be given on Decoration Day at the auditorium. Musician supreme . . .

CHOIR AND ORATORIO—During the spring term, a chorus of two hundred members of the choir, oratorio class, and glee club dramatized the popular oratorio, Elijah,” by Felix Mendelssohn. The production was given on April seventh for delegates to the North Central Educators’ Conference which was held in Minneapolis this year. The work of the chorus was exhibited as typical vocal work in the senior high school. A group of sixteen choir members sang the parts ol the angel chorus, and the same number of glee club singers were chosen to play the parts of the priests and priestesses. The part of Elijah was sung by Walter Peterson, an alumnus of North. The soprano and alto soloists were Inez Davis Richter and Elsa Hartig McVeety. Paul Hazelnus. a student, sang the tenor solos. f 157) Choir members were chosen to sin in the Angel Chorus for “Elijah.'
