In each case it has tackled all obstacles, and produced gratifying results. Our first problem was that of the janitor shortage, a result of manpower loss. Every class was given the responsibility of cleaning up its rooms, and the remainder of Dun- lap was taken care of by paid high school boys. Our solution to the problem proved a success. Our next innovation was the student proctor system in study halls. In order to insure desirable studying conditions, the Council devised several degrees of penalties, the last of which was a review of the student ' s case if he had received two disciplinary slips. The system has worked very satisfactory. Another improvement was the establishment ofall student activity funds in a separate student government account. By this plan we prevented the usual confusion in the school account books. This year ' s Vaudeville success insured a substantial fund for the year ' s activities. We also accumulated enough reserve to buy $200 in bonds, as our contribution to the war effort. In summary, this year ' s Student Government proved itsel ably all tasks that confronted it. worthy of handling cap- 12 THE PURP Through close cooperation among business, advertising and editorial staffs, this year ' s Purp was able to produce a paper that will be a worthy addition to the school ar- chives. The editorial staff has presented to the school a more complete, concise and ac- curate account of school activities than has been given in former years. They surpassed former achievements in presenting diversified features. Several innovations were made which improved the quality of the Purp. The alumni column proved very popular as it kept the school in closer contact with our men in the Armed Forces. The Editorial column, noted for its crusading, was widely read for its timely and pertinent content. Bat ' n Banter kept the school ' s jivehounds up with the latest musical gossip. The Purp rounded out its edition with humorous articles of high caliber. Next year ' s staff will have the difficult task of living up to the quality of this year ' s publication, produced by co-editors Betsy Shanklin and Carolyn Kuehnle. However the task is not at all an impossible one, if the underclassmen use their available talent. 13 THE VAUDEVILLE The Vaudeville, this year, set a new precedent for these annual Talent shows . The reversion to a typical Gay-Nineties ' type of production was overwhelmingly re- ceived by an enthusiastic audience. In former years our so-called vaudevilles were made up of various skits and acts put on by the different class groups. This year the var- iety element was still present, but the whole thing was tied together by an old-time vaudeville theme. The curtain rose on a bevy of beautiful girls and handsome gents, made up of senior classmen, who immediately put everyone in the proper spirit with their rendition of In Old New York . Three Senior couples brought down the house with an original ar- rangement of the old favorite, Mary . Another old time hit, By the Sea , was pre- sented by the Freshmen girls who daringly appeared in 1890 bathing suits. A breath- taking chorus-line was presented by the Junior boys, in their riotous Can-Can dance, and three black faced hoofers went to town on Dark Town Strutter ' s Ball . Mr. Duff, as a typical vaudeville M. C, not only held the skits together, but also added to the hilarity of the whole show with his continuous stream of humorous remarks. The highlight of the comedy acts was the Junior boys ' burlesque of Abdul the bulbul Ameer , which literally rolled em in the aisles . There were many other acts that added equally to the spontaneous gaiety and laughter of the evening, and those, with a number of amusing between act skits, made up the rest of the program. The curtain rang down on the entire cast in a Grande Finale Musicale of Give My Regards to Broadway . We hope that such a successful Vaudeville this year wi for an even bigger and better production next year. prove to be an incentive 14 Patience , the opera chosen to be our 1944 production, is Gilbert and Sullivan at their satirical best. A take-off on the aesthetic trend of the Gilbertian period, the oper- etta is not as widely known as some, but the music, particularly, is unsurpassed. It has no tenor lead but an abundance of good major roles, points which were taken into consideration when making the choice. Opera-time, and the spirit that goes with it, is a North Shore tradition, the value of which cannot be overrated. That spirit ran high this year among all those industrious members of the stage crew, art department, costume committee, and make-up crew, not to mention the entire cast. Even had the production not been the triumphant success it was, the experience and pure fun derived from such complete cooperation would have been well worth the effort. A unique thing occurred this year — no epidemic broke out the week before March seventeenth. It ' s the first time in history! Both Friday and Saturday nights ' casts gave their best, unhandicapped by measles or mumps. Incidentally, both casts were superb, playing to houses packed with responsive audiences. The chorus also deserves praise, the boys for their well-drilled marching and the girls for their unaccustomed aestheticism. Many thanks to Miss Bacon for her effective coloring and scenery, to Mrs. Duff, Mrs. Graham, and Mr. Smith for their patient coaching, to Mrs. Brueggeman and her com- mittee of mothers for costuming us so beautifully, and to the business, stage and make- up crews. As for Mr. Duff himself, our director cannot help but know how grateful we are. 15 LEICESTER HALL In the summer of 1941 a boarding department was set up at North Shore. Thus parents who were planning to leave the North Shore for an extended period of time, or parents from other states who had heard of North Shore ' s educational facilities, could enroll their children at Leicester Hall and consider their progenic problems over. Mr. French, head of the Middle School, was put in charge of the House as it is familiarly termed by its inmates. He and Mrs. French were charged with the duty of recreating as best they could the atmosphere of congeniality that pervades the home. In this way they have succeeded admirably to the point where they have become second parents to us, advising us socially and financially, reprimanding us when the need arises, and perform- ing ali those offices which have always been identified with parents and have endeared them to their offspring. The daily program of the House has been modeled as closely as possible on that of a private home. On school days breakfast is served at 7:30. After school we have tea around six and dinner at 6:30. Then the inmates journey upward to their rooms for their main study period which lasts from 7:30 to 9:00. Every other Sunday, we have visited a different church along the North Shore, so that we might get a basic understanding of the varied religions practiced in America. 16 CHRISTMAS The Christmas Season at North Shore is always memorable, and this year certainly was no exception. Here at North Shore we try to strike a happy medium by having a bit of gaiety plus some seriousness. The Christmas Party starts out the program and furnishes the gaiety. It is full of good humor and dancing, and is climaxed by the entrance of Santa himself. Usually this creator of good cheer enters by the medium of the conventional chimney. This year, however, his better judgment getting the better of him, he decided not chancing the chimney as he had gained a little extra weight. Instead he decided to sneak in through one of the gym windows. As it turned out he found himself locked into the balcony of the gym and had to be rescued by a group of the Lower School children. As soon as he had ascended his throne, all else was forgotten while he and Mr. Smith, a good friend of Santa ' s, launched themselves into a warm conversation. After this, followed a long and serious conference with the Lower School in which Santa received numerous, de- tailed suggestions as to properly enhance each family ' s hearth Christmas Eve. These requests usually accomapnied by eager affidavits of good intentions, and contracts for future behavior. After this, with occasional interruptions by various tots who wished to further impress Santa the exact nature or feasibilities of their suggestions, he was amused by the whole-hearted, if not expert prosecutions of dances by the members of the whole School. Completely filled with good intentions for the school, Santa then departed. To complete and add the necessary serious note, a number of tableaux were given representing famous paintings about the life of Christ. Then the Freshman class, under the able direction of Miss Radcliff, produced a simple but expressive pageant depicting the quest for and finding of the Christ Child. 17 A CAPPELLA CHOIR The idea of forming a small group of girls who were interested in a cappella singing sprouted from a few Sophomores in the fall of 1941. The objectofsuch a group was to give the girls experience in reading and singing unaccompanied music for their own enjoyment. Enthusiasm was soon aroused throughout the school and although there was a waiting list of prospective members, the size of the group was limited to twelve, to make possible the singing of three, four, five, and even six-part songs. By the be- ginning of the next year, with the well known Ramsay Duff as their director, the chan- teuses were already organized and on their way to fame. During this school year the choir has held its rehearsals during the lunch period, four days a week. This schedule is rather uncomfortable for the members, who are forced to bolt their meagre repast in order to get in a full half hour of rehearsing. Conflicts also arise with various other student meetings called during the lunch hour, but, as yet, no satisfactory alternative has been found. The A Cappella Singers have sung, during the past year, for the Evanston and Win- netka Music Clubs, the Highland Park U.S.O., servicemen at the Farwell ' s home in Lake Forest, the Evanston First Methodist Church, the Vaudeville, and a return engagement at the National College of Education. The honoraria earned at several of these ap- pearances has been divided between increasing the A Cappella library and furnishing records for servicemen overseas through the Armed Forces Master Record Committee. This Christmas the group made its first recording, which was presented ceremoniously to Mr. Duff. This is the beginning of what they hope will be an ever growing record library, illustrating the development of the organization. The repertoire of the choir consists of contrapuntal music, madrigals, motets, Russian Church music and part songs. Members of the group are: Lee Wilcox, Carol Yeomans, Ginger Bensinger, Lindsay Harper, Ellen Selfridge, Alice Barnes, Posie Welsh, Hester Davis, Judy Campbell, Joan Fitzgerald, Martha Bacon, and Nancy Northrup. 18 THE ORCHESTRA The North Shore orchestra is an organization composed of members of the school plus one or two professionals and headed by Mr. Duff. The group gets together in the Lower School building every Thursday for practice. It is a small group and thus is limited in its possibilities. Even so it manages to whip into shape some fine pieces for its various public performances during the year. •The orchestra made its first appearance for this year in the Thanksgiving Day Morn- ing Exercise. Its main function was to accompany the chorus on the stage. Later in the year the orchestra gave a Morning Ex. of its own. If you arrived a little early you were probably not very surprised to hear the writhing tones of Dixie Land struggling for supremacy which issued forth from the trumpet and clarinet section, or may be you couldn ' t hear them for the noise of a certain trumpeter trying to hit high C with his characteristic gusto. The main performance of the year is, of course, the opera on which the orchestra spends most of its time. It then closes its season with the Commencement music. 19 DANCES North Shore ' s social life this year was fairly eventful, although the present Juniors abolished the Coke Dances initiated by the class of ' 44. Our twenty-fifth season was launched by the Frosh-Senior Hop, which welcomed the newcomers in a particularly gala- fashion. Instead of gilding the lily by giving a dance following the Vaudeville, the Sophomores changed the date until April. Everyone had more fun than a circus. As we go to press, the Juniors re- port that their elaborate plans for the Prom are under way. This event promises to surpass the best efforts of the past. 20 SENIOR PLAY This year the Senior Class produced The Admirable Crichton by H. M. Barrie. Although the play is in no way concerned with war, it is most appropriate for it is con- cerned with whether or not there can be complete equality among all people in the world. Mr. Barrie comes to the conclusion that there can not be complete equality: that there will always be an aristocracy since there will always be some people more able than others, who will climb to the top and gain power. Given only this aspect of the play, one might think that it would be long winded and boring, but it is not. The idea is presented in an amazing and natural way. An aristocratic English family is shipwrecked on an island where circumstances put every- one on the same level. The resourceful butler, Crichton, finally gains complete con- trol over the whole family. The play contains some delightful humor as well as high- ly dramatic scenes. The characters of the play are very interesting and give the actors who portray them a good chance to show their ability. Much of the business is left to the actor and the definite change in the personalities of the characters in the third act calls for versatility. All in all, The Admiral Crichton is excellently suited o student production. 21 JUNIOR PLAYS On the evening of Friday, May 5th, the Junior class entertained members or the school and their friends, with an evening of one act plays. The first, Star Struck , revealed what an absolute crazy star leads. fe the family of a movie As a contrast a grotesque fantasy The Cloak of Evil was next. The audience was on the edge of their seats as they witnessed the mental torture a petty criminal went through in an attempt to steal jewels from a buried woman. His mind finally cracked, when he imagined the dead woman coming to take back her jewels. Holbein in Blackfriars , a historical comedy completed the evening. It portrayed an incident in Henry Vlll ' s life. Holbein aided Thomas Cromwell, Henry ' s chancellor, in trying to trick the king into marriage with the plain Anne of Cleves, by substituting for her portrait that of his pretty model, dressed in the princess ' clothing. A dramatic climax was reached in the scene between Holbien, Cromwell, and Henry VIII, when Holbein showed Henry the true picture of Anne of Cleves. 22 23 RICHARD ELLSWORTH BATTEN R.Q.

She has blue eyes and long, black hair and is tall. She is neat and stylish. She is nice, most of the time but she has a little temper at times. She has a light complexion, is quite well behaved and is quite fond of sports. She interrupts but is always the first to get her work done. This boy has light, blond hair. His hair stands up on his head like a cowlick. He has blue eyes, and a light complexion. He has a very funny disposition. When he ' s with other boys and girls he ' s terrible, but when he ' s alone with them he ' s nice, by that I mean not always doing something to the girls. There ' s a girl in this room, who has good manners and is very dependable, and cooperative. She likes to be with other people. She is popular because she has a kind disposition, and never says anything unkind about anyone. She has a rather dark complexion, brown eyes and brown hair. She wears her hair in short braids that are cute. She is very pretty. She is an accurate worker and never lazy. She is the best artist in this room. She is kind to others, but she is very silly at times, and always grins at people. I think she is the nicest girl in the room. She has short, brown hair. Her eyes are brown and always twinkling. Her fore- head is very high. She has a pug nose and a smiling face. She has a sort of a double chin. She is very neat and tidy. 45 Left to Right — P. Moulding, E. Hull, J. Cunningham, R. Wehr, N.

FOURTH GRADE This is the story of two cave-boys and an adventure. Long ago, in the days of cave- men, there was a boy named Tiro. He lived with his father, Grana, and his mother, Meeshna. One day, Tiro, who was nine years old, said, I ' m going hunting. His father laughed at him. Bah , he said, Don ' t you know it is dangerous? ' I can take care of myself. said Tiro. No boy can go out alone until he knows how to protect himself from wild beasts, said Grana. Now eat your dinner. Nothing more was said during dinner, but in his mind, Tiro was secretly making plans for a hunt. When they had finished eating, the family went to bed. Everyone was sound asleep when Tiro awoke. He crept out of his bison skin bed and when he got to the mouth of the cave, he was surprised to see a figure of a boy silhouetted against the gray dawn. Come on , whispered the boy to Tiro. Tiro looked at him. Kiko, he said. What are you doing here? When I was on my way down to the river, I overheard the conversation between you and your father. I thought you might get up early so I came here to wait for you. I want to go hunting with you. All right, then, answered Tiro. Let ' s be on our way. They hadn ' t gone far when they heard a faint whispering. Cautiously they crept through the grass, their clubs ready for an attack. Very soon they came upon an injured dog. Shall we kill him? asked Kiko. No! said Tiro, sharply. I know where there ' s a cave safe from danger, carry him there. Kiko agreed. Carefully, the two boys put a thong noose around the dog ' s They lifted him gently and carried him to the cave. There, they made a bed of leaves for him, and every morning Kiko and Tiro went to the cawe to care for their new pet. One morning when they went to the cave, they were surprised to find that their pet was not there. A few days later as they were going down the river below their home, Tiro and Kiko glanced up and saw, on a rocky ledge a pack of dogs, and who should be their leader but the dog they had saved. Now they knew he was happy and safe. 46 Let ' : jaws. Front Row, Left to Right — R. Howard, N. Dennehy, G. Pritchard, C. Sippy, J. Taylor, R. Vandercook, D. Patrick, R. Lowrey. 2nd Row — T. Pabst, T.

He had been with the Second grade for several years. She had laid several eggs so we were anxious to get a mate for her. Mr. Paulman brought us two white King pigeons. They were beautiful and much bigger than Otty. We named them King and Queen. We made a big cage in the shop. It was big enough for all three pigeons. But when we put them together, King and Queen were so mean to Otty. They pricked her and fought her until we had to put her back in her old cage. On the 10th of January, Queen laid one egg. On the 28th, it hatched. The baby was much bigger than we thought it would be. It had no feathers. It was yellow. Its bill looked huge. We thought it looked more like a duck than a pigeon. It grew very fast. It was fun to watch the mother and father feed it and teach it to fly. We named it Prince. On March 19th Queen laid another egg. On March 20th she laid another. So we put Prince in the cage with Otty. They got along fine. We were so happy about that. These eggs will hatch about April 6th. We hope when we come back from vaca- tion we will have two baby pigeons. 47 Front Row, Left to Right — D. Cain, J. Atwood, L. Hirsh, L. Clore, J. Blunt. 2nd Row — R. Ziebarth, B. Cunningham, E.

EVENING STAR Evening Star, a Pueblo girl, Getting water at the spring, Filled her olla to the brim And then began to sing. She sang a song about the corn And all its many colors — Red and yellow, blue and brown And lots and lots of others. And then she went to the mesa top, With her olla on her head. She gave the jar to her mother. Thank you, dear, Mother said. 48 Front Row, Left to Right — G. Packard, R. Garard, D. Simmons, D. Wham. 2nd Row — J. Vandercook, E. Kolbe, J. Biggert, M. McKnight, J.

When I grew up, he grew up. When I came to this school, Brownie followed me. They didn ' t pull him around here. He plays with us. He doesn ' t come into school when he is wet or has gone in a mud puddle. This is a tale about a bunny whose name is Grasshopper and the bunny was hopping along the way when he met a whole lot of other bunnies. Hippity-hop! H ippity-hop! They all carried eggs along the way, having lots of fun with each other. They hopped into rabbit holes, taking eggs to houses underground, which was lots of fun. The hens had lots of fun laying eggs for the bunnies. Grasshoppers carried eggs to boys all by himself and Grasshopper had a cousin named Peter A. Peter A carried eggs to girls.

JUNIOR KINDERGARTEN I live on Church Road. I walk to school all by my- self alone every day. We play on the hill top when the weather is nice. We see the trains go by, steam trains and electric trains. Today we saw the Hiawatha. We play train indoors. Jay is the driver, English is the ticket man, Fenton shovels coal. We load the train with baggage. All the passengers get on the train. We play house. We build the house with big blocks. 51 52 y i ' M M x if ' 5r ' x 1 53 FOOTBALL Practice for the 1943 football season began one warm day before school last fall. A determined but small group of boys reported for the gruelling process of getting in shape. These early drills stressed, of course, the fundamentals of the game and it was some time before actual scrimmage was held. Scrimmage with the New Trier J. V. combined with hard work brought the team up for its opening game in good physical condition. It was an ideal football day, when the Aardvark eleven took the field against Todd out in Woodstock. But it was soon apparent that for North Shore the day was to be ideal only in respect to the weather. During the first half the team played like a badly bewildered, grammar school eleven. Todd scored two touchdowns on their traditional end runs from punt formation, and converted twice to make the score, 14-0 at half time. North Shore managed to muster some offensive drive in the second half, but always fell short of pay-dirt. Todd was not able to score again and the game ended with the score, 14-0 in their favor. In that game the tackling was poor and the blocking non-existent. The team didn ' t seem to possess the drive required for a winning ball club and it was not a very auspicious inaugural. 54 ! J The next Saturday rewarded the Purple team with a 6-0 victory over a mediocre Wheaton eleven. The field was muddy but North Shore scored the first time they had the ball, with Russ Stern cutting over left tackle for the score. The attempted conversion fell short. After this score the Aardvarks seemed to let down and for the remainder of the game battled to hold on to their slim lead. Wheaton drove deep into North Shore territory but the Purple warriors stood firm and the game ended with North Shore having racked up its first victory, 6-0. Our traditional rivals, Milwaukee came down here for the next game. After the first half ended, it looked as though this Milwaukee game was of the same pattern as 55 its predecessors. Milwaukee, featuring a strong running attack from their usual single wingback, had piled up a two touchdown halftime lead. North Shore had played very poorly, with no sharp blocking or tackling, and no real spirit. But the second half was a brighter story. The Aardvarks came back fighting and matched a Milwaukee score on a long pass from Derry Boyd to Adams. The Purple aerial offense put a real scare into the boys from the North, but was unable to make up the deficit of the first half. The final score was 19-6, Milwaukee ' s favor. The following weekend saw North Shore put on its poorest exhibition of the season, in going down in defeat to Harvard, 6-0. The team showed no blocking and committed innumerable errors of judgment. The game was scoreless until the fourth period when the Harvard fullback plunged for what proved to be the winning marker. The Aardvarks next ventured down to Latin to face a highly touted Latin team. It was a black, rainy day but the weather didn ' t keep either team from playing hard foot- ball. For three periods, the battle raged with North Shore perhaps having the upper- hand, and keeping Latin ' s powerful offense in check. In the fourth period, the Purple, showing a flashy and driving offense, smashed deep into Latin territory when a heart breaking fumble inside Latin ' s 5 yard line turned the tide. Latin aided by two offside penalties against North Shore, fought out of that hole and running continually through the center of the Aardvark forward wall, went the length of the field for a touchdown. North Shore never quite recovered from their bad breaks and were unable to get rolling again. The game ended with Latin leading ,6-0. The season ended the next weekend against Francis Parker. It was a very thrilling ball game with the outcome not being decided until the last minutes. Parker pushed over two touchdowns to lead 12-0 at the half and it looked as though it was going to be another sad afternoon. But this time it was different. North Shore came back strong and fast and pushed over one touchdown, the score coming on a pass from Derry Boyd to Burlingham. The conversion was good and the score stood 12-7. In the fourth period the Aardvarks commenced a march towards that last white line, mixing beautifully their plays from the T formation and the single wing-back, and climaxing their drive with Derry Boyd crashing over right tackle for the winning score. The Purple warriors then gained possession of the ball and froze it till the time ran out, winning a fine game, 13- 12. It was a grand way to end the season and this game proved that underneath the ' 43 football team had plenty of offensive punch in tight pinches. The season when considered from the Won and Lost column was not successful, with the team losing 4 games while winning 2. However, any football season may be con- sidered successful if the valuable experienced gained by a boy playing on a North Shore team is taken into account. This was the first North Shore team under Mr. Harritt as Head Coach. Very few coaches have ever had to face such a combination of lack of weight, inexperience and injuries, but due to his fine spirit and the great respect his players had for him, a fighting if not winning team went on the field each Saturday. 56 HEAVY WEIGHTS LIGHTWEIGHTS :-.-. M- ' . i. J.V Captain Frank Burnham in his great spirit and fine all-around play set a high example for the captains of the future to follow. Tim Wallace, the next year ' s captain has the best wishes of everyone connected with North Shore football this year and we all hope that he will pilot his team to the league championship and restore North Shore to her rightful position in the local gridiron circles. 57 1st TEAM HOCKEY North Shore ' s 1943 Glamazons charged through the season unconquered, to add another to their former record of six consecutive undefeated years. There were three scheduled games,- Roycemore, Milwaukee Downer and Kemper Hall. Just to deflate the Varsity ' s ego a little, we had better add here that, in an impromptu contest, the North Shore Woman ' s Hockey Association scored two goals to our one,- however, no one could feel too badly about losing to these veterans. It was hoped that we might add a few new rivals to our list of opponents this year, but the prospects backed down. Obviously they feared out amazonish tactics. The seasons success was due, in a large part, to Mrs. Graham ' s effective, though terribly monotonous drilling in stick work and technique in the early fall, She imparted much of her skill and knowledge of hockey to the squad members, which helped im- measurably against well trained opponents. The hockey test, taken by every girl in the high school, proved that the drills on rules and regulations had really sunk in. The greatest obstacle arising at the outset of the year was the violation of train- ing rules employed this fall for the first time. The difficulty, however, was quickly settled, 58 2nd TEAM and from that time on things progressed smoothly. Everyone agreed that she had bene- fitted a great deal by observing the few strict regulations. Our first battle was on October fifteenth, when the Glamazons met Roycemore on the home field. The ground was wet and slippery, making the game rather slow. Stewie Galloway was high scorer, driving three goals, half the total. North Shore bettered Roycemore 6-0, giving the season a good start. The next contest was with Milwaukee Downer on October thirtieth, also a home game. The frigid weather should have pepped things up, but it was generally agreed that neither team was up to par. There was a little too much individual playing. How- ever, Jumbo Wilson ' s two markers made the score 2-1, Country Day ' s favor. The final game was against Kemper Hall of Kenosha, Wisconsin. The Glamazon teamwork had improved and the 2-0 victory was well earned. Although the 1943 Varsity was made up almost entirely of Seniors, prospects for next year look extremely good. The second team scores were as follows: N.S. 5, Royce- more 0; N.S. 4, Milwaukee Downer ■ l N.S. 4, Kemper Hall 2. This record is an im- provement over that of second teams in previous years, showing that there is plenty of valuable material coming up. 1944 hockey will undoubtedly continue its former tradi- tions. 59 MIDDLE SCHOOL TEAM Those devoted few who turned out every Sunday, come rain, snow, sleet or nine o ' clock to practice and play with the North Shore Women ' s Hockey Association certainly deserve mention. It was to their own advantage, however, for they all profited greatly and acquired valuable experience. When eight N.S.C.D.S. representatives made the All North Shore Schoolgirl ' s Teams (the rule was that only seven players from one school could gain positions), they broke a record and a rule. The first team members were Eleanor Wilson, Nancy Dick, Lina Kimball, Stewie Galloway, Charlotte Hannaford and Betsy Shanklin, while those mak- ing the second team were Isabel Lindsay and Sally Burnett. The flu epidemic in December forced the Juniors to abandon their plans for the an- nual hockey banquet at the season ' s end, but the names of 1944 ' s captain and manager were informally announced. Best of luck Captain Farwell and Manager Barnes. The task of living up to the precedents set by Eleanor Wilson and Nancy Dick, captain and manager respectively, will not be an easy one. 1st team 2nd team Roycemore 6-0 5-0 Milwauke 2-1 4-1 K emper 2-0 4-2 60 61 VARSITY BOYS ' BASKETBALL The 1943-44 basketball team was built around two returning lettermen and several individual artists from the orevious frosh-soph quintet. This year ' s campaign produced much erratic basketball. The boys displayed much individual talent, as well as team co-ordination at times, and at other moments played poor basketball. On the basis of their important victories, they distinguished themselves as one of the better quintets produced at North Shore. The season opened December 12th against Harvard. The Purple, outclassed for three periods, rolled up 16 points in the final period, but lost the game, 32-25. The following game at Concordia was a poor exhibition of basketball. Concordia was able to overcome the Aardvark ' s lead, to win in the final 45 seconds, 21-20. North Shore next entertained Luther. Led by Russ Stern, who compiled 25 points, the Aardvarks played heads up ball, and won handily, 48-34. The Purple cagers next met University High. The teams were evenly matched for three periods. U. High then found their eyes and got hot, while holding North Shore offenseless. U. High won 47-35. The Aardvark ' s next game was with North Park, here. Led by Dan Ward ' s 20 points, the Aardvarks won the well played contest, 48-38. The local quintet next treked to Woodstock to meet a highly rated Todd five. The game was sloppy for three periods. In the final quarter the Aardvarks made a succession FROSH-SOPH of baskets to lead 27-21 into the final three minutes. The game, however, went to Todd in the last 18 seconds, as a result of faulty ball handling on North Shore ' s part, 30-28. The Aardvarks next encoungered previously undefeated Latin. Playing top-notch ball, the Aardvarks jept pace with the Latin aggregation. The sco re was deadlocked eleven times during the contest, and the victory wasn ' t clinched until Russ Stern ' s field goal in the final 10 seconds. Capt. Derry Boyd led Aardvark scorers with 15 points. The following week the Aardvarks met Christian in their cracker-box gym, only to be handed a 30-26 defeat in the final minute. The Aardvarks finished up their Private School League with victories over Francis Parker, 32-31, and Wheaton, 30-24. Both games were poor exhibitions. Dick Batten clinched the former contest with 3 straight free throws. North Shore next engaged Milwaukee in a 2 game series. On the Latter ' s court they were dealt a decisive defeat, 51-33. On their home court, the Aardvarks fared more successfully. The game was an even contest throughout. Going into the final 45 seconds, the Aardvarks trailed by three points. In quick order, Dick Batten sunk a field goal from mid-floor. Several seconds later Capt. Derry Boyd connected on a hook shot from far out, to put the Aardvarks in front 35-34. The gun sounded shortly. This game completed the season with 6 wins as opposed to 6 losses. The frosh-soph team finished with a 4-8 record which doesn ' t appear very strong. They did, however, show great signs of improvement throughout the season as is shown by their 4 wins in the final 5 games. They displayed promising talent for the North Shore quintets in the future. Russ Stern was elected captain of next year ' s squad. He will be without the services of graduating lettermen, Derry Boyd, Denny Boyd and Dick Batten, but plenty of talent is still available. We wish Russ much luck. 63 64 GIRLS ' BASKETBALL The results of the 1944 season of basketball do not show the handwork and con- stant practice that went into the preparation of the teams. The girls started practicing right after Christmas vacation, thus having a little time to work up for the interscholastic games. The turnout for the teams was especially gratifying and the spirit very high under the leadership of Captain Isabel Lindsay. This year we were fortunate, for besides having games with Girl ' s Latin and Royce- more, we were able to procure a game with Ferry Hall, a team which we had not played for a number of years. The first game was with Girl ' s Latin. The first team game was very evenly matched, which is shown by the finai score of 44-44. The second team did not fare as well, the final score being North Shore 17, Girl ' s Latin 30. The next game at Ferry Hall proved less successful, the first team losing 23-32, the second team losing 9-22. We hope that this game will lead to competition between the schools for next year. The last interscholastic game was played at Roycemore. The first team looked very close at the half, the score being 18-17 North Shore ' s favor. In the second half the team buckled down and defeated Roycemore 45-24. The second team was not as success- ful, the final score being North Shore 18, Roycemore 42. In between the outside games, a series of intramural games were played! in which the Juniors came out on top. To end the season, a rousing game was played with the faculty, in which the varsity won 31-9, despite the fast and furious playing of the faculty. In spite of a season that was not highly successful, the players of both teams enjoyed the experience, especially because they were under tne able leadership of Mrs. Graham. 65 BASEBALL As this article goes to press, the 1944 North Shore baseball team is enjoying a very successful season, having won their first four games. This sort of start for a North Shore team this year is indeed unusual, and it would seem as if the team had a fine chance of retaining the league title, which they shared last year. The small number of boys out, 17, enabled Coach Harritt during the early practices to pay a greater amount of attention to the individual player than usual, especially dur- ing the practices held in spring vacation. As the team took the field against University High for their first game, it was a fairly veteran unit built around a nucleus of five returning lettermen. Hopping off to a two run lead in the first inning, North Shore was never headed, due to Stern ' s fine pitching and a fairly reliable defense, The final score was North Shore 5, U. High 1. The following weekend the Aardvarks coasted to a 10-0 victory over a weak and inexperienced Parker nine. The next game, with Luther, was, as was expected, a tough one. In the first inning Luther built up a lead, due mainly to a shaky North Shore defense. Finally pulling them- selves together, the Aardvarks scored six runs in the last two innings to wipe out a Luther lead of 6-1, and triumph in a real thriller, 7-6. The next day, North Shore met a weak Milwaukee team and overwhelmed them by the footballish score of 26-2. Derry Boyd ' s pitching was excellent, striking out 17. the In these 4 games, the team showed great possibilities, especially in hitting, and a fine spirit, and we believe that Captain Denny Boyd and his teammates can turn in a truly fine record. 66 67 68 Advertisers ' Index Page Aimee 76 Anderson ' s Indian Arts . 81 Mary C.
