C. V. COURTER Superintendent of School� Mr. C. V. Courter, as superintendent of Michigan’s second largest school system, has consistently maintained the highest possible educational standards, and has effi- ciently met the demands imposed by the city’s rapid growth in the way of fine teach- ing personnel, effective equipment, and modern buildings. He has given each elementary, junior, and senior high school the untiring personal attention which makes each feel and appreciate his friendly guidance. The community’s whole-hearted cooperation testifies to its respect for the administrator of its educational welfare. flPtnrnrT nooo 11111111 ■Illlllllll Page 12 O. F. NORWALK Principal E. R.

It saw a girl and thought, “A home ' She shoved the thought away For boys engrossed her little mind. The thought then saw a boy And joyfully and gladly went To enter. So short its joy— The boy was lazy—sent it off. And so it traveled long— From one to next and could not find A home, its every guess seemed wrong. It warily approached a man Who recognized its worth. That poet made a song of it That gladdened all the earth. —Gracia A. Ogden. The Path There is a little path which I should like to follow There is a tiny path, a lovely path, and small, Which goes thru the center of a fern filled hollow, Adjacent to the ramblings of an old stone wall. The moss and the wood grass which fringe its quiet borders, The Jacks-in-the-pulpit, and gypsy columbine, And the tall trees which act as stalwart warders, All help to hide the traces of the elves’ gold mine. Sometimes, too late for you to be a’ stirring, Sometimes, too late at night for you to be about, I hear in the hollow an owlet’s wings a' whirring And know the fairies take their yellow treasure out. —Jack Pierson.

Senior Class Poem Listen to my tale, Oh! classmates, Listen friends and worthy teachers, While I tell you of the trials, Of the toil and tribulations, Of the joy and of the sorrows, Of this class of noble seniors. In the fall of five and twenty, Wended we to junior high schools. Climbed the steps of Mt. Parnassus, Classified as little Freshmen, All intent to grow in stature, Dignity and understanding. Vet again another venture, Six and twenty, Central high school, Through the sophomore year we struggled. Taking part in all the projects, Of our school life, seeking always For a better, brighter morrow. Then September twenty-seven, Found us safe in Central’s haven. Destined soon for Northern journey, To a new and unknown school home. There we loved and laughed and labored, Under guidance sane and vigorous. riiiiiiiiiiiii KBwoi 1111111111111 Page 37 For the officers were chosen, Frederick Schrah, as able leader, Close at hand, our famous Connie, Marie Long, as secretary; And this trio, staunch did guide us, On to victory in the class sing. With the dignity of Seniors, ’Gain we started back in autumn, Straightway to the polls we hurried, Made young “Al” our fiery chieftain. Named Sid Scofield for assistant, Margaret Smith as record keeper. Of the football heroes stalwart, Five were seniors: Wedding, Davis, Lovegrove, Scofield, and McKenna. As for speedy basket shooting, Look to Rukamp and to Wedding, Also Harvey who won honors. Christmas came and all the Clansmen, Danced in mirth about the Yule log, To the time of Clifford’s gypsies. “Whimsy” was our first production, Brady, Neale, its leading ladies, Harvey and Al their Don Juans. Matchett, Chisholm, Watkins, Lovegrove, Howard Braden in the foreground. Were the pace-makers of Northern. Al’s activities were numerous, In debating he was ace-high, Senior play and North Wind claimed him. Able manager was Herb Smith, And this Noroscope you’re reading. Is a tribute to his effort. And the North Wind, school newspaper, Supervised by fellow class-mate, Wesley Day, a sincere worker. Now the time has come for parting, Parting from these halls of learning. Parting from our fellow class-mates. Oh! those carefree days were wonders, Days of joy and love and friendship, Days for aye, of pleasant memories. —Genevieve Hampton. Page 38 £D I 111 I I I Father Field Michael Evan off May SwunMon Class of ’30 MICHAEL EVANOFF ESTHER FIELD MAY SWANSON President Vice-President Secretary Our life as juniors has been one grand race to keep ahead of the sophomores and not fade away in the dust of the seniors in our common struggle to bring scholastic fame and achievement to our school. That we have borne our responsibility worthily is shown by the fact that our school has progressed rapidly and exceptionally in the fields of scholarship, athletics, and character, but only when we enable our school as a whole to progress may we say that we ourselves have progressed. Although we have kept steady pace with the seniors, we admit that they have established records which have shown them fit leaders of our student body. Therefore, we juniors who will in a short time be seniors give our word of honor to our predeces- sors that, taking inspiration from their achievements, we will do our level best not only to maintain, but also to increase, the fame, glory, and renown of our school.

In the beginning. Central High School was created. 2. And it came to pass in the year of our Lord, 1927, that a right righteous class oi scholars entered the spacious cloisters of Central as sophomores in a strange land. 3. And there were in that region, both Centralites and Northernites mingling together. So vast was the multitude of pupils that there was confusion in that time. 4. And there they abided and did expose themselves to knowledge until the month of Janus, 1928. EXODUS 1. And it came to pass that the Northernites, being hard-pressed for room, did betake themselves unto Northern High School, the promised land. I. KINGS 1. And at that season, the multitude of followers of learning took unto them- selves leaders who were: Earl Smith, president; Esther Field, vice-president; and Robert Hutchinson, scribe and treasurer. 2. And, as the custom was, two goodly sponsors were appointed unto them, being Kenney Turk and Miss Marion Carey. 3. And it came to pass, in that same year, that the whole Northern tribe took unto themselves a queen who was fair and goodly to look upon. And she was of the group ’30 and called Marjorie Cuson. PSALMS 1. And it so happened in that day, there was a great “sing.” 2. And the 1930’s did make a great noise and rejoicing. 3. Now it came to pass that the hands of the judges bestowed upon them the second prizes as regarded both the songs and yell. 4. And in that time, there were assembled in Mt. Pleasant many who contested for scholarship honors. It happened that many 1930’s assembled and one of their number, Elsie Ormrod, headed the honorary list by winning first prize among all those of all the tribes contesting in Latin. JUDGES 1. Now when the fifth month was come, there was darkness over the whole land until exams were over. 2. And some grades were low, and some lowlier, but some passing fair, and others goodly. 3. And there was rejoicing and lamenting for the time of the passover had come. II. KINGS 1. Now after many months, the multitudes again gathered and did select their leaders. 2. And it happened that Miss Carey, being heavy burdened with forensic duties, did yield up her position to the Misses Marguerite Farmer and Helen Murray. THE ACTS 1. And in that day, there were also held debates. And lo! three of the four leading arguers were juniors. 2. It happened that the class of ’30 gave forth a great light and did shine ex- ceedingly in all forms of athletics, music speech, and dramatics. REVELATION .1 And it came to pass that in the same manner as had the sophomore year ended, so closed the junior year and the class of ’30 did look into the future with great expectation to the miracles to be accomplished in the following year.

Grim, relentless, forbidding, it pursued him. No matter where he went, it would find him. He thought desperately of the Arctic, the South Seas, China. It was no use. He couldn’t shake that Nemesis from his trail. He sought solace in the fact that he couldn’t do more than hang him. But even in the warm sunlight he shivered. He had heard such terrible stories concerning the man who ruled his domain with an iron hand. This was his first misstep. If he would only give him another chance! Turning, he met the cold stare of the attendance of- ficer. The freshman’s first break for freedom had ended in disaster. WOODROW JARVIS.

A masterpiece I wot, Which to the world I’ll soon submit. Sometimes I dream. And though the cruel teachers seek Vengeance upon my head to wreak, I hear nor heed them not! Sometimes I dream. With truth my parents must admit That as a student, I’m no hit. They have a single thought. My school-life is a blot. But they don’t know the cause of it, Sometimes I dream. DEOBOLD VAN DALEN.

Representatives are elected by a ma- jority vote of their group, and while in office must hold an activity ticket and remain in the upper half of the scholastic scale. This organization has complete control of all student activities and projects. The president, vice-president, recording secretary, corresponding secretary, and treasurer have the usual official duties, and in addition the vice-president is chairman of the miscellaneous commission, and the corresponding secretary has charge of the statute book in which all laws are recorded. Thre are five standing commissions whose duty is to investigate and report to the council on such measures as pertain to them. The social commission has charge of all parties and other social events. The activity commission has direct control of school clubs and similar activities; the athletic com- mission has charge of athletics; the finance commission handles student union finance; and the miscellaneous commission takes those things which do not directly pertain to any other commission. The Student Council's decisions are carried out by an executive board, made up of the officers and the chairmen of the five standing commissions. This board also as- sists the president in formulating the policies of the school. Through the efforts of this body, the organization and operation of school clubs were regulated and made more efficient, resulting in a better club spiiit and much greater activity. The student council was largely responsible for the improved park- ing provisions which were made for students driving cars. During the national presi- dential election in November, the Council conducted a mock election with sample ballots from the city hall. This election was carried on through precincts as nearly as possible like the ones throughout the city. The Council sponsored a Parent-Teacher- Student party. April 11. Various other beneficial projects instituted during the year can be traced either directly or indirectly to the student council and the efforts of its members.

The trio opened the season by defeating Owosso high school. Then Bob Wood- hams was substituted for Van Benschoten, and the new combination crushed the hopes of Saginaw Eastern. The Viking arguers next won a silver pitcher emblematic of the city championship when they eliminated Flint Central from further competition. By defeating the strong Lansing Central debaters, Northern qualified for entrance into the state elimination series of debates with a total of 15 out of a possible 16 points. A walnut wall plaque with a bronze inscription was presented to the school by the Detroit Free Press in recognition of this excellent debating. The fighting Viking trio began the elimination series with a drive which brought them victories over Saginaw Arthur Hill, Oxford, and Detroit Central. Northern’s aspirations were crushed, however, by the greater experience of the Royal Oak debaters, 1928 state champions. Top Row: Earl Smith. Robert WoodhamH, Michael Evanoff, George Olvitt.

The year 1928, Edgar Harrison, North- ern’s representative in the city oratorical contest on the Constitution placed second. In declamation Michael Evanoff gave Northern the championship of Eastern Michigan. The first semester of this year saw Northern’s debate team become one of the state’s eight best high school teams. In oratory, Birney Van Benschoten placed second in the sub-district contest, and in declamation Stella Lande, victor in two school con- tests, placed third in the sub-district.

It has been given p. thorough understanding of technique, and has received instruction as to effective in- terpretation. Five members of the organization representing Northern in the All State Or- chestra were: Walter Mikelson, violin; Wayne Farber, viola; Norma Rowe, flute; Evert Dahlstrom, clarinet; and Wilbur Mosier, French horn. Walter Mikelson and Wilbur Mosier are also members of the Flint Symphony. The orchestra played at assemblies, debates, and the Senior play. It entered the State Contest at Lansing, May 2. The crowning event of the season was the accom- paniment of Northern’s first annual opera. “H. M. S.

No other organization is in a position to render as much service to the develop- ment of fine school spirit as a band; Northern’s band has supported each and every worthwhile activity of the school in a credible manner. From a rather inauspicious beginning, the band has increased from the 26 mem- bers of February 1928, to fifty-three enthusiastic musicians. At the annual Thanksgiving Day Central-Northern football conflict, the band attired in its then uninitiated scarlet and grey uniforms graced a winning field. Throughout 1928-29, the loyal music-makers have appeared at the debates, the ath- ltic functions, and all major programs. jtiii iii liiiii n(i929)Ti i nmn mui® Page 65 £llilllllllll mss Top Row: Hal Suydam.

Pinafore “H. M. S. Pinafore,” the first opera to be given by the vocal groups of Northern, was presented May 16 and 17. There were two casts of characters. The theme of the opera is an eternal triangle which centers around Josephine, daughter of Captain Corcoran, commander of “Her Majesty’s Ship Pinafore,” and hei two suitors, Sir Joseph Porter and Ralph Rachstraw, a humble sailor. Captain Corcoran opposes the marriage of Josephine to Ralph until an old woman on board ship, called “Little Buttercup,” tells a story which places Ralph on an equal basis with Josephine. The couple are happily married and Ralph is given command of the ship.

The topics discussed at the club meetings give an op- portunity for wider research than can be gained in class discussions. Experiments and other projects are carried out to illustrate further the different lines of chemistry. Two weeks after its organization, ten new members were admitted and given a thorough chemical inititation. Subsequent meetings were devoted to experiments and discussions which developed scientific appreciation. In order to gain a more complete understanding of chemistry and its relations to everyday life, various trips were taken to commercial establishments which employed different branches of chemistry. Through the efforts of this club much has been done to make chemistry as a subject function more effectively in the way of direct service to the school. am Page 70 immi Top Row: Elywn Yax.

The club was organized January 1929, with 25 charter members. A candidate for membership is required to submit a model aeroplane capable of making a sustained flight of at least ten seconds under its own power, or his applica- tion will not be accepted. Many interesting exhibits of the members' work have been displayed in the school trophy cases during the year. miiiiiiii! nrifl?9wm¥rmTTinB Page 71 Mlllllll im r F Joseph Vercoe.

With the foregoing in mind, Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets were donated to the city’s needy, and at the close of last year a box was sent to a New Mexico Mission school. The club has discussed International and Inter-regional problems; delegates were sent to the state and county conferences. A rummage sale and various other projects were undertaken, the proceeds of which were turned toward high school benefit projects.

The National Honor Society has more than four hundred chapters ranging from Maine to Honolula with an aggregate membership of over four thousand. Membership to the society is gained by the unanimous election of the candidate by the entire faculty. Applicants must be in the upper fourth of their class and qualify for the character, leadership, and service requirements. Fifteen per cent of the graduating class are eligible for membership. Ten per cent of the 12B class, and not more than five per cent of the second half juniors may become members. At the first meeting of the organization, Al Smith was elected president, Leo Johnson, vice-president, and Pearl Sullivan, secretary-treasurer. Faculty sponsors of the Northern chapter are Mrs. Tiffany and Mr. Herman Steele. 1111111 ilii mu Page 81 Top Row: Charles Huhler. Harold Baier. Roland DesJardins. Albert Proctor. Fred Kitchen.

Experiments in many branches of radio were carried on; several sets of various kinds were constructed by members of the club. Among other accomplishments a transmitter was completed for code broadcasting. The most advanced field, television, was intensively studied. Harold Baier and Roland DesJardins spent several weeks on the construction of a set of this kind. A four tube amplifier, several types of receiving sets, and other radio equipment was completed and experimented on during the past year. In the field of general electricity the club has not attempted so much. However, a giant telsa coil for obtaining high voltages, and several related projects were under- taken. To complete their study of radio, and to aid the newer members, the club has established a course of study which begins with the fundamentals and ends with the graduation of the member into electrical experimentation for himself.

Alubowicz, instructor of instrumental music. Any student enrolled in one or more of the various musical organizations is eli- gible, and membership insures a furtherance of knowledge in the field of music ap- preciation and history. This knowledge has come to be considered as a necessary part of the cultured person’s education. If the schools of today are to accomplish their purpose, it is expedient that they train youth how to employ leisure. Where better than through the medium of this well organized club can this necessary training be acquired? 1 In mW 1 It Page 83 £1111111181 I indflCln Top Row: Thomas Matchett. Mjtx MacKenzie.

Page 84 l Spring Fever (Apologies to George Howland) Just down from the house are two sweet little brooks, Where I’d love—oh, so often—to throw in my books. Not because I don’t care for my studies, but gee— It would give such a thrill if I knew I were free— From English and History were free! I might throw them farther, perhaps up the stream, And let them float down where they couldn’t be seen. Not an instant too soon; not an instant too late, But just at the moment, the twinkling of fate; The right moment is all that makes fate! Down there in the grass, just think how I might Joyfully watch my books sink out of sight. But I doubt if to rise and find myself free Would afford me much joy—when my teachers I’d see, When my teachers and parents I’d see! —GRACE ANNIS. Page 85 To An Alarm Clock Alarm clock, chanticleer Of dawn, Greeting rose-hued Aurora With thy song; Thou bidst the curtain of the night Begone, And on light wings the morning Comes anon. Yet thou art still a pestilence Indeed, Depriving me of precious sleep I need. I breathe anathemas upon Thy seed, And for a few more golden hours Plead. My neighbor’s cat is bothersome ’Tis right, And thou art fit companions In my sight; The cat doth hold his revel Through the night, And thou destroyeth sleep In morning bright. Yet how exist without thee, Clock of mine? For with thy help to school I go on time; And were it not for thy Discordant chime, Rise I could not, though the will Be mine. —MAURENE HAYNER.

Pleasant High School. The score was 44 to 0. However after an idleness that did them no good they submitted to Bay City. The Wolves aerial attack was not long in getting started, and the Vikings were on the short end of a 12 to 0 score at the end of the first quarter. The game ended with Bay City in the lead 18 to 6. The Vikings partly avenged their Bay City defeat by out-fighting and out-scoring a championship contending team from Fordson High School. The Detroiters were out-played in every department of the game. Inspired by defeat at the hands of Bay City the Vikings, for the first three quarters, several times advanced the ball to within a few yards of the opponents’ goal only to be repulsed by a desperate team. However, Northern was not to be denied and in the last quarter twice marched the ball from midfield across the enemy goal for two touchdowns and a 12 to 0 victory. After defeating Fordson, Northern traveled to Lansing, where Eastern held the COACH HOUSTON Page 96 «20 llllllllllI I Vikings to a 12 to 12 tie. The following: Saturday at Ann Arbor Northern delayed the season’s poorest brand of football, losing 7 to 0. The Purple and White of fh University City inspired by the possibility of defeating: a better team used every triCK an the bag:; all failed until the last of the fourth quarter when a pass, Wagner to Walz, was completed for the lone score of the day. ♦ Northern next overwhelmingly defeated Cooley High. The Vikings ran up the largest score of the season while shutting out the Detroit school, the final tally being 51 to 0. With but two games left to play the Vikings went to Owosso. There handicapped by a muddy field, Northern won by a 6 to 0 victory on a 20-yard run by Sid Scofield, half-back. ♦ The climax of a successful season came on Thanksgiving Day in the first annual Central-Northern grid tilt. Central with her three thousand ardent admirers advanced upon the field of battle with the odds in its favor. The fighting spirit of the Vikings had not entered into the thoughts of the Central fans. The great thrill came when McKell went to punt on the 5-yard line, on hurrying off the kick for fear of the Viking line blocking it. as they had three previous times, fumbled and the old pig skin felt itself strongly clasped in the arms of Northern’s powerful left end. The ball was pushed over for the lone count of the day, and the gold football, emblematic of the city championship, was taken to the Viking stronghold.

Al Washington First Row: Don Smith. Roscoe Burgess, Harvey McKenna. Homer Barker. Russ Reynolds, Claude Tyler. William Shaheen Basketball Coach Barclay turned out a fast, diversified, passing, fighting basketball team. Parker, with his defensive work and hard playing, and Reynolds, with fast floorwork and short shots, were the mainstays of the squad. Rukamp and Holm, the tallest men were good point getters and handled the ball well. Swann, who was lost by graduation in February, was short but fast, a good offensive man and a ball hawk. Nine varsity letters, ten reserve letters, and three numerals were given this year. The men receiving letters were Captain Parker, Swann, Wedding, Reynolds, Holm, Rukamp, Tyler, McKenna, and Washington. The three most important games of the season were with Central. The first game, played at Central, was won by the enemy’s fast, rangy team by a score of 23-13. The next game, played at Emerson, was a different story. After a hard fight all the way, the Vikings won 19-14. The final game, played at Whittier, was a win all or lose all, with a score at the half standing 10-5 in favor of Central. Northern, however, came back in the second half with its old fight and spirit and won the game 21-19. This game was played before the largest high school basketball crowd in the history of Flint. The Vikings lost the opening game of the Saginaw Valley Tournament which was played against Central by a 19-10 score.

Melvin Sexton Track Squad The thin-clads led by Captain Oldfield, Paul Lovegrove, and Tom Matchett cap- tured every triangular and dual meet in which they participated. The first meet of the season proved the toughest of the lot. The Viking relay team composed of Matchett, Chisholm, Oldfield, and Lovegrove turned in a first for the last event to defeat Redford of Detroit 42 1-3 to 41 1-3. Central of Flint was last with 15 1-3 points. In the next three meets with Central, Rochester, and Saginaw Eastern, the Vik- ings easily overwhelmed the opposition, gathering 55, 62, and 50 points respectively. Tom Matchett and Paul Lovegrove dominated these meets. At the state track meet the Northern tracksters did not fare so well due partly to the loss of Matchett who “pulled a tendon” in his leg the previous week. Northern gained its only points when Braden took second place in the mile run. CAPTAIN BRADEN Page 101 Top Row: Edmund Love. Melvin Chisholm. Ralph Baker. Howard tira 3en. Virgil Coolman.

Central was defeated at the Thanksgiving meet. Braden, coming in first broke the course record in 10 minutes, 6 seconds. The final score was 27-28, with the run- ners from Northern placing as follows: Braden, first; Baker, third; Coolman, fifth; Boomhower, eighth; Watkins, tenth.

Struck, Sump, and Voelker returned, as well as Buck Burgess, runner up to the champion in the city tennis tournament. The Vikings dropped the first match in 1928 by a shutout score of nine to nothing to the Yellow and Black team in Owosso. The Saginaw Eastern team was the next to defeat the Northerners, coming out on the long end of a seven to two score. In the return game with Owosso, the Vikings fared a little better than before but remained on the short end of the final count. The last meeting of the season was with Central. The Northern team had little better luck in this encounter, winning only three matches while the Red-Blacks gath- ered the other six, the match, and the city title. The first turnout for the 1929 team according to Coach Nichols, was very good, with eleven candidates including the city champions. Meets were to be scheduled with all the Saginaw Valley schools and possibly with others. The spring prospects were Herman Struck, Roscoe Burgess, Sidney Sump, Milton Kaplan, Ben Goldberg, Joe Boling, Edward Quill, Don Piper, Earl Voelker, Virgil Coolman, and Birney Van Benschoten.

Northern never lacked “the ol’ spirit” with these five Vikings ready to stir up a little fight whenever the spectators lost their edge. Mr. Herman Steele, coach of our famous Northern pep gang, gained his knowledge at Indiana University. Before coming to Northern, Coach Steele was at Miama, Florida. He has done much to arouse the spirit of the Vikings for he is always right there with his cheer leaders. He has surely done his share in putting the fight into the Northern rooters. mm mim Page 104 Ill Id n A COLLIGI iow? to' V lft 14 COMMOTIOR ?’ ‘m VHiXGi PICIUPI Slow jusi cwmo pen 'iou dotit siro MAH' m iracr ’■TOD COLLEGE 5IDDUII9- •DID 1AY PIFUID 1 MCHYf •WntJH 'M HUWDPED GOf THE� MOMLY BO.'

All the bitter and the sweet Thru’ a poet’s pen may meet. THE HARPIST So still she sits; her gaze enrapt, On some sweet distant thing. A whisper seems a crushing blow On each clear sounding string. So still she sits, her fingers stray Across her golden harp. A trill of elfin music comes And then, a silence sharp. So still she sits, her gaze enrapt On “death” so near her now. Each whisper seems a crushing blow Upon her cold, white brow. IMMORTALITY I will not die, who know the stars, And talk with them at night. I who have kissed the crescent moon And tasted love’s delight. I know that I shall never die, For I am Beauty’s slave. For those who know her mystery There cannot be a grave. WHITE LILACS If you have forgotten the fragrance, The white beauty of lilacs; If you have forgotten their sweetness, Borne on the wings of morning; If you have forgotten white lilacs, You have forgotten your soul. —Jack Pierson ’31. = I ! : 'yillllHHIMIIMHIIIimiMMimiMHMIMMIMIIII...IIIIIMmMII«IMmM iMMMI� M «MIMIMI� IIIMmMIIMMM� IMMII� limMII.....MMIIMMtlMIMIIIMMMMI...IMIMIIIV : : That Game Turkey Day, a gridiron mighty, crowds were watching, singing, cheering; Air was peppy, snappy, tingling, sending out the sounds of war. It was Northern that was winning, and the half was well-nigh o'er, As the haughty Central losing, struggled for a winning score. But the Vikings fought a battle, that would hold that winning score. They were fighting, would fight more. Just behind the field of battle crouched the thin clads, anxious, straining For the starter gun, and the country which they must needs travel o'er. Then the boom, and they were running, as they never ran before. Restlessly the crowd was waiting, spirits sink and spirits soar. But the bend the sprinters circled, Northern leading as before. Northern made the winning score. Crowd and players, now were waiting, for the finish of the battle, And the tenseness of the playing made the watcher's heart to soar. Central struggled vainly, fiercely, just to even up the score, But the Vikings fought like bulldogs, grit their teeth as ne'er before. And the Centralites defeated, left the field to boast no more. Northern, victory encore. CHARLES BALDWIN '29. PRINTED «V CURTIS PRINTING COMPANY : j l%.........................................................................................................
