BARNETT Editor-in-Chizf It has been our earnest endeavor to produce a Viking suitable to this graduating class of January, nineteen hundred and thirtyfsix. We hope that this book will serve as a medium of pleasure and satisfaction to all of Northern High School. This year the senior class has endeavored to put out a Viking, new, both in originality and form. To this end I sincerely believe We have succeeded. I wish to extend my sincere thanks to all who participated in the completion of our year book. Page Twenty-one ROY SHAFFER Class President mx. 4-W I i'i'V' 'iw 'V in il W 'rev JANUARY 1 9 3 6 VIKING Presidents Message Three years have been scratched from our record by Father Time. These are years that we shall be proud to look back upon, a length of time that we feel was not only well spent, but that can never be replaced. When we receive our diplomas, we know that our brief but enjoyable stay here at Northern has been completed. In a short time we shall have to say good-bye to our friends and memories of Northern. The friendships we have cultivated we hope to keep:-the memories we know we shall keep. It seems but a short while ago we entered Northern as young and eager freshmen. Now we leave here, three years older and better prepared to face the future. Our stay has broadened our minds and sharpened our intellects. We have been taught the basic principles of fair play and clean sportsman- ship which are so very vital to our success in life, the fundamentals for success in both the industrial and the commercial fields have been so instilled in us, we shall never forget them. Even to attempt to enumerate all the precious gifts which we have received in the past three years would be but a futile effort on our partg so we shall have to be content with the very few which I shall endeavor to point out. We, the graduating class, wish to extend our sincere thanks and deep appreciation to the teachers of Northern. We shall never be able to really appreciate the invaluable counsel and aid which has been given us. The kindness and genuine co-operation shown us in our problems and troubles, will undoubtedly never be equalled. On leaving Northern, our thoughts will turn to the future and our careers. No matter what we decide, we may rest assured that the road has been made smoother and the outlook brighter by the contacts we have made during our brief stay here. After graduation we may never meet as a class again, but as we go our different ways, may we each have an ultimate ambition, some goal to reach, and may success crown our efforts.

LUCICK The Alumni Association To you who are graduating, let me extend the heartiest congratulations upon your success. ln the course of your various scholastic pursuits, you have gained and enjoyed the companionship of many friendsg but have you considered what is to become of them when you leave school? To those who do not enter fields of higher learning, may l say that the Northern Alumni Association is an excellent means of retaining a closer contact with those with whom you have become acquainted at Northern. This is also a means whereby you can further secure your bonds of friendship and keep fresh the memories of yesteryear while still being ac- quainted with the various activities to come. If at any time after graduation you wish to contact a former classmate, the Association will be happy to assist where and whenever possible. Become an active member and preserve your companionships and retain the spirit of Northern High days you love so well. May I again extend my congratulations and wish you good luck 'in the years to come! I hope to see you at the Alumni dance. I am sure you will enjoy it. Alumnally yours.

GUBOW L. FISHER Benjamin Franklin House Named after that prominent figure of early American history, Benjamin Franklin, House 308 has established a reputation which well befits its name. Inscribed on the boys' beautiful house scholarship shield is the phrase, In permanent possession of 308. On the shield are listed the boys' grade- rooms which have won the shield from term to term. 308 boasts a run of six semesters of highest scholarship honors, beginning with january, l925, and ending with June, l927. It held the shield again for the three succes- sive terms of june, l929, January, l930, and June, l930. The house won also in January, I932, May, I934 and january, I935. Not satisfied with having placed its name on the shield twelve times and having won it permanently, 308 was the first boys' house to appear on the new shield. They now hang side by side on the front wall of the grade room. The senior officers of the Benjamin Franklin house for the fall term, working under Mr. McGrath, house principal, were as follows: Charles Fox, president: Arnold Kadish, vice-president: Lawrence Cubow, secretary: Louis Fisher, treasurer. These boys were selected to direct the house activities be- cause of their scholarship standings, citizenship, leadership, and popularity. In the field of sports, the graderoom has taken an active part. Three teams entered the tennis tournament held last September. These were Rubin lden and Aaron Goodman, Harvey Hughes and Theodore Fox, and Robert Hanna and Felix Hanaissian. The team of Hughes and Fox got over the first hur- dles, but were defeated by Bickel and Bieglow of House 322. The latter team was then, in the semi-finals, victorious over Hanna and Hanaissian, in whom lay the last hopes of 308. Page Forty four .4 M rv .f -ia... W if 5 JANUARY 1 9 3 6 VIKING .3 1? Q . MRS.

That is a fitting title bestowed upon Mrs. Jessie Ward for her skillful guidance of the girls of the Mary Gamble House. Through her influence the girls have attained the feeling of true school spirit and the urge for successful endeavors. House 207 has always complied to requests for helping the needy by preparing baskets of food, conducting dinners, dressing dolls, and presenting gifts to orphans. House 207 may be proud of the glittering scholarship shield on which their name is the first to be inscribed. This term they have again been awarded the five dollar LIGHT prize. In the activities of the school, House 207 was well represented. Betty DeFrance and Madeline Benjamin were in the IZA play cast. The VIKING staff was composed of Charlotte Campbell, Rose Bernstein, Rose Brown and Mar- garet Borison, who in addition to Mildred Bobrin and the IZB officers: Grace Edelman, Hilda Bacher, Sarah Blechman, and Betty Bean, comprised the House Council. In the Student Council, Rose Bernstein represents our House. The graduates of 207 extend their appreciation to Mrs. Ward and the other Mary Gambleites for their cooperation in making the term at Northem an enjoyable one.

BISHOP Woodrow Wilson House The Woodrow Wilson House has again carried through a successful se- mester under the guidance of Mr. W. N. Isbell and the House Council. The officers chosen for the council this semester were as follows: Henry Barnett, presidentg Lyle Alexander, vice-president, Clinton Clark, secretaryg and William Bishop, treasurer. The scholarship standing of the House has been fair, and, in order to bring it up to excellence, Mr. Isbell has again continued his method of aiding failing students by compelling each boy to remain in the House for study an extra period a day. Without a doubt, Henry Barnett is the most outstanding graduate from Woodrow Wilson House. Besides being president of the House, Henry is edi- tor-in-chief of the VIKING, president of the Student Council, and he held one of the leading roles in the Senior play. The vice-president of the Senior class, Lyle Alexander, is from Woodrow Wilson House. House 322 also has two of the school's leading club presidents in its fold, Dave Clark, president of the Senate, and Clint Clark, president of the Hi-Y club. House 322 has made an excellent showing in Fall athletics. Among those who represented 322 on the foot ball team were: Booker Dozier, Wal- ter Chevernohy, Chester Clapp, Herman Casari, james Anderson, Bob Bush, Harry Bernstein, Art Becker, Geoffrey Coombes, Max Cicurel, Morris Cohen, and Robert Bell. Herbert Bilton and Maynard Cohen excelled in tennis, while Henry Barnes, Warren Anderson, and William Bishop won their laurels on the varsity cross-country team. Milton Bates was manager of house ath- letics again this semester. The House again raised money for Thanksgiving baskets. Six needy families were well taken care of. The graduating class wishes tolhank Mr. Isbell for the interest he has shown in each individual member. Pug F rty 1.ae.r,,, ' ANUARY 1 9 3 VIKING MISS KNIGHT GOERNER A. GAMBURD NLFELDMAN S.

Following an age-old rule, House 208 has been active in autumn var- sity sports. Captain Shtyk, Colin Weymouth, Art Schultz, and Kenneth Stone- street participated in football. On the swimming team were Somrnerville, Woodson and Louis Schwartz. Elmer Swetina and Hamilton Wilson were the city champions in tennis doubles. A high spot in the career of time House was reached with the winning of the Clemens Memorial Trophy by our crack swimming team. This repre- sents a signal honor, as our name will be the first to be inscribed on the plaque. As is their custom, the Edisonitcs were ably represented in IZA activi- ties. Roy Shaeffer, president of the House Council, was elected president of the graduating class and also took part in the senior play. On the senior committees were Allen Zeltzer, Alex Samuels, and Harry Stem. The VIKING staff numbered Spear and Tenenbaurn among its writers. Filling the capacity of sports editor of the Light was Graeme Tengel. Through the cooperation of the boys of 208 and the Council, several poor families were made happy at Christmas time. To the graduates, upon their leaving, we extend our sincere congratu- lations and bid them Goodbye and the best of luck. Page Forty-eight M., , ,N f6.::'f?

MARTIN Jane Addams House So let us then be up and doing. These lines from Longfellow's famous poem appropriately describe the activities of the Jane Addams House during the last semester. Besides those who were individually brilliant, such as Margaret Oker- wall, and Kathryn Patterson in scholarship, Shirley Lefkowitz in dramatics, and Barbara Richards, Virginia MacKinnon, and Barbara Longbotham in ath- letics, the House as a whole contributed much to the progress of our school. We were also fortunate enough to have the distinguished member, Adele Rosenberg, who is the secretary of the graduating class. The girls this semester have responded nobly to the support of our school athletics. The success of our House was due in part to the work of our officers, who were as follows: MARGARET OKERWALL .... .......... P rzsidznt SYLVIA PASMANTER ........ ..... 7 in-President GERTRUDE MITCHNICK . . . ........ Secretary ROBERTA MARTIN .......................................... Treasurer We wish to extend our heartfelt thanks to Miss Bertha Pulford for her earnest efforts in making this semester a success. As is the usual custom, the House donated at Christmas time baskets to some deserving families. As all good things must end, so close our years at Northern High School and we leave with the hope that subsequent graduating classes will receive as much profit and enjoyment from their stay as we have.

Lewis for presentation by this year's senior class, is a hilarious family comedy in humorous demonstra- tion of the profits in the judicious use of flattery. The audience was enthusi- astic in its reaction to both performances. Maw Uane Goerner and Nladelyn Benjaminl and Paw Robinson fLyle Alexander and Roy Shaffer, are the domestic couple attempting to marry off their beautiful daughter, Hazel fBetty Saloshin and Betty Delirancel to the supercillious, egotistical villain, Rollo Jenkins QDouglas Cordon and Harry l..illey.J Shortly after the engagement was announced, in breezes the happy- go-lucky Bill McAllister fDouglas Morgan and Sidney Markowitzl, that easy- going chap who gains everything through diplomatic use of the verbal slap on the back, and who has come to propose on his own hook. Learning to his great disappointment, that Rollo, the dastard, has already won the woman, Bill explains to his erstwhile rival a few of the more practical details concern- ing expense, and the inevitable miseries involved in matrimony. Of course, Rollo is gently wheedled out of his engagement, and Bill takes up where he left off. Passing the happy banter, Bill manages to get for himself a home, and a job from his determined Uncle Matt fReuben lden and Henry Barnettl, and marital happiness, counter to the mournful predictions of that sad, sad neighbor, Jennie fShirley Lefkowitz and Elizabeth Hawmanl. Beginning with Hazel happily engaged to Rollo, and ending with Hazel happily married to his rival, Applesauce provided a storm of laughter from first curtain to last, and was certainly a successful senior production.

Northern Light With over 1,935 subscriptions for the NORTHERN LIGHT in the Fall term of 1935, an all-time record has been established. It is by far the great- est circulation enjoyed by the bi-weekly publication in the fourteen and one- half years of its existence. To stimulate a greater interest in the LIGHT, a subscription campaign was launched at the beginning of the semester. The grade room principals did a great deal to make it a success, urging their respective groups to sub- scribe, not only in their ow'n interest and the interest of their house, but also for the good of the school. Among the girls' grade rooms. 207 won the five dollar award for com- piling the largest number of subscriptions, 312. The two dollar prize for the girls' house boasting the greatest number of paid subscriptions went to 307. House 322. with 247 subscriptions, won the five dollar award in the boys' division, the two dollar prize went to house 224. Charles Fox was appointed Editor-in-Chief of the LIGHT for the Fall term. Under him were Albert Feigenson, feature editor, Jane Goerner, news editorg Andrea Burr, editorial editorg Graeme Tengel and Alfred Tivy, boys' sport editorsg Rosalyn Maskin, girls' sport editorg Seymour Kapetanslcy and Dana Fox, personal editorsg Charlotte Campbell, club and poetry editor: Charles Acker, art editor: Lillian Shrodeclc, exchange editor, Arleen Kilroy and Thais Buell, special interviewers. The business staff included Seymour Kapetansky, Albert Feigenson and Freda Zegman, advertising managers, and Barbara and Dorothy Witt, circu- lation managers. Typing was done by Faye Baker, Lillian Block, Jeanette Tietel, Mar- garet Tompos, Beatrice Shear, Rose Bernstein and Arthur Becker. Mr. A. V.

But wait, this frown grows as he vainly searches through the history shelves. Finally he walks to the desk and one of the assistants finds the needed books for him. Within ten minutes the peaceful atmosphere has quieted his frazzled nerves. and while he is completing his history assignment, he has regained his com- posure. Our library is a refuge from the cares of the class rooms and the noises of the halls. ln this haven are also interesting plants and aquaria. Miss Lyon, our librarian, is there to help anyone, and the staff also aids students. The members of the present staff include: Mildred Borak, Theresa Boxer, Nettie Franzblau, Edna Goldberg, Lillian Loewenberg, jessica Schwartz, Mary Vassalo, Mildred Bobrin, Beatrice Brovage, Seymour Edell, Sarah Markle, Jeanette Nikoloff, Kay Pollock, Faye Portner, Sylvia Scholnek, Esther Shkolnick and Betty Ann Warriner. The pages are: Harry Gertz, Louis Gertz, Vincent Kibildis, Alphonse Kranciunas, Leo Wasserman and Thomas Wasserman. The library contains many references dealing with biology, English, history, etc. The magazine collection is extremely helpful in current events, as are the newspapers. A clipping file also is maintained for the students' use. However, the library is not used wholly for reference work. The fic- tion shelves house a splendid collection for recreational reading.

With the helpful advice and patience of the conductor, Mr. Orvis Lawrence, each member is now taking his playing and acquiring of musicianship more seriously. The special orchestra, a selected group of the best players, has been organized to play for various engagements throughout the term. A group of ten students recently played for the Detroit Community Fund at the Hotel Statler. Northem is well represented in both the A and B All-City High School Orchestras. Following is the list: Flora Meyers, Shirlie Honeyman, Freda Lang, Dorothy Schwartz, Harold Berick, Samuel Cemer, Arnold Mich- lin, Clifford Feldman, Victor Forte, Curtis Cray, Sidney Jacobson, Fred Sea- bloom. Ray Sheffield, Samuel Slaughter, Tommy Thomplcins, Manuel Wartell, Max Weiner and Jerome Wigler. As always, the complete Senior Orchestra will play for the Senior pro- duction, Applesauce , and also for the graduation exercises.

Playing for football games, participating in the Armistice Day parade, and taking in several other engagements, they have been busy throughout the whole term. The marches are the militaristic and well-known ones. Several are: Hosts of Freedom, National Emblem, Garde du Corps, Our Director and Officer of the Day. Many of the former Junior Band students have progressed to the point where they are now playing in the Senior group. Mr. Lawrence has developed his band into a better class of musicians in every way. Any persons desiring to learn how to play an instrument should speak to Mr. Lawrence in the auditorium. Page Sixty-one JANUARY 1 9 3 6 VIKING Boys' Glee Club Gaining steadily in popularity with the boys is the male glee club of Northern. This organization offers splendid opportunity for high school boys to develop their voices, and provides training in the reading and appreciation of music. Mrs. Searle and Mr. Orvis Lawrence direct the two classes which com- pose this organization. Both classical numbers and songs in a lighter vein were studied and enjoyed by the boys. Occasionally, a selected group sang four- part songs with the girls' glee club. Several members took part in programs presented from time to time by the combined organizations. Early in November, certain outstanding members were chosen to sing in a concert in March, with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, in the All-City High School Chorus.

It is a real recreation to leave one's studies for a while and come to the Glee classes. There are four of these classes, graded from the earliest vocal training through the senior Clee, which is the culmination of one's ef-- forts. Our director, Mrs. Searle, and Miss Lee, the accompanist, select splen- did songs which will appeal to the varied tastes. During the last semester, we have sung among others: My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice, by Saint-Saensg Londonderry Air, arranged by Harrisg Pixies, by Coleridge-Taylor: Persian Serenade, by Matthews: and Calm as the Night, by Bohm. From time to time programs are held for the purpose of discovering individual talent and training the class in the art of listening. We have a fine girls' trio, composed of jacala Guenther, Betty Mc- Cauley and Lorraine Elliot, chosen from the members of these classes. These girls have made an excellent reputation for themselves in all their public ap- pearances. Thus, remembering the road we have travelled, and looking eagerly to our coming experiences, we hope to go forward With a Song in Our Hearts.

He stated that the teams representing the various Detroit High Schools had one of the best years of any in which they fired previously. The firing that is to be done on the range for the rest of the semester will be devoted to developing members for the team next year. There are many promising shots firing now. The War Department has furnished an abundance of ammunition for practice and the school range is kept in daily use by those trying out for places on the team. From the amount of interest shown and the good results obtained by the Cadets, it is expected that Nor- thern will have a good team to fire for her next year.

Upon this topic, the I935 Northern varsity debate team argued a ser- ies of four interscholastic debates against MacKenzie and Pershing at home, and Cass and Northwestern away. The personnel this year included two vet- erans from the team which last year entered the state elimination competition, Miss Evelyn Yates and Mr. Douglas Morgan. who is back for his third year of varsity competition. Also from last year's squad are Miss Creenblatt and Messrs. l-laffner and Rodman Myers, the younger brother of Julian Meyers, the first speaker on the team of l934. Other members of the squad, Misses Welner and Grace, and Messrs. Sobel, Panush, Reilly, Schwartz and Schulman. Mr. Lewis, who has headed the speech department for many years, again coached the team. The resoution debated in 1935 is a particularly timely topic, in view of Senator Nye's current investigation to expose the alleged evils of the pri- vate manufacture of munitions. In its consideration, many practice discus- sions have been held with our friends from River Rouge High School, Per- shing, Northwestem and other nearby schools, for common benefit. The Northern debating team realizes the genuine, permanent effect of the educational advantages derived from this friendly sport, and trusts that the season of I935 will turn out to be a success.

How proud our faculty and students are of Northern graduates who have ac- complished something of note. Their fame is surely worthy of mention in our radio broadcast, and their success may be an inspiration to all. Lloyd Knechtal, whose name you have doubtless noticed on the screen many times, was an eminent photographer for the movies. His brother, Alvin, invented a trick lens which brought about the double feature camera, and he went to Hollywood and became noted. After his death, Lloyd continued his work, and at present he is photographing pictures in England Very few Americans have had the honor of winning a Rhodes scholar- ship, but one of our alumni did. He is Edgar Ayles. He studied at Oxford and is at present a Detroit lawyer. Judith Sidorsky was a piano soloist with the Detroit Symphony Or- chestra at a Tuesday evening concert, last February. While still at Northern, she won a Steinway grand piano in a music memory contest. Several have distinguished themselves as teachers. An assistant pro- fessor of English at Michigan State College and co-author of a book on freshman English is our Myron Golden. Duncan Perie is head of the Mathe- matics Department at a Cleveland intermediate. He was chairman of the intermediate Mathematics program at the Michigan Education Association meeting several weeks ago. George Babcock, former football star at Northern and Michigan, is principal of the Madison School in Hazel Park, Michigan. Bertha Bates is a missionary teacher in Judson College, Rangoon, Burma. Mr. Kolbe and Miss Grant, members of Northern's faculty, were once pupils here. Miss Grant, who was married in October, is now studying with her husband at Cornell University. Others are making names for themselves in the business world. Russell Varney has charge of the advertising for General Foods. Among the several radio programs which he supervises is the Fleischman's Yeast Hour. Grant Dawson is vice-president in charge of sales for the Mohawk Rug Company. George Hester is manager of the purchasing department for the southern branch of the Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company. Lucille Finsterwald supervises the nursery schools for the welfare fam- ilies in the District of Columbia. She is the wife of Modacai Ezekial, a pro- minent brain-truster and associate of Dr. Rex G. Tugwell. She accompanied him on a year's travel-scholarship in Europe to study economics. They have two adopted sons. l.ucille's sister, Maxine, one of our former students, won first place in the David Belasco amateur play contest, was mentioned in the magazine Time, and wrote a three-act play which ran for two weeks in -ninr , .W i iw vf Ii,,.,..J1- -v ff JANUARY 1 9 3 6 VIKING Detroit. She is the author of Raspberry Down the Cellar, in the October, I935, edition of the ATLANTIC MONTHLY. Turning to sports, we find Bill Bronthen, a famous miler, now retired. Bill Bronthen went to Princeton, where he excelled as a track man, and afterwards traveled to many foreign countries to participate in races. He beat Glynn Cunningham, most famous of all milers. He is now married and living in New York. Harry Newman, Benny Fishman and Nomian Cable made the Michigan Varsity eleven. Norman Gabel received his Ph. D. de- gree in Archaelogy at Harvard. Newman Ertell is the basketball coach at Wayne University. Don Leonard, who was on the Northern debating team, is captain of the state police. He attended Wayne University and later did a great deal of work for their alumni. He is now president of that organization. Most renowned of Northern's debaters is David A. Goldman, winner of one na- tional and several state awards, who on November 4 was one of the two Wayne men to meet England's best debaters. Among our other famous ex-Northernites, we have John Entenza, who wrote a play for Pauline Frederickg Alice Hirshman, participant in all sorts of aeronautics and a pilot of great renown: Lt. William Hatcher, an experi- mental parachute-jumper, and up-and-coming young movie star, Susan Flem- ing: Winniett Wright, director of the Detroit News Players on station WWI: Robert Hartwich, who received a Ph. D. degree from Harvard, Fred Mala- mud, a leader of the Zionist movement in Palestineg and our mayor, Frank Couzens. Another famous member of our alumni is Ned Smith, now judge of the Recorder's Court. While still at Northern, he lost his eyesight. After he was graduated, he went to the University of Michigan and studied law. Fel- low students read his lessons to him. Only fifty per cent of the law students passed, but Ned Smith was one of them. At present he is married to the nurse who attended him after he lost his eyesight. This is station F. E.

A NORTHERN WORLD WAR GLORY By Florencf Climxtfin During the World War. when our men and boys were called in to tight for liberty, the schools of the United States held a contest to see who could sell the most Liberty Bonds to finance the war. Naturally, Northern High School tried hard to win that honor. . Boys. girls. and teachers of Northem spent all of their spare time in selling bonds, and brought in so much money that, at first, Northern was Pagz Srumty . Q. -A., 1. gf.-' , ia 'ev V' JANUARY ' - 1 9 3 6 VIKING Page Sew leading all other schools. Later a high school in California had sold more bonds than Northern. The pupils of that school had the advantage of being near the movie studios, and the stars, being wealthy, bought many Liberty Bonds of large denominations. Northern seemed to lose hope, for it ap- peared to be impossible to obtain such vast amounts of money in Detroit. Northern High had no movie stars as customers, but they did have, among their pupils, two expert and ingenious salesmen. They were William Wild and Ray Hammond. These boys hated the thought of being beaten by the school in Califomiag so they took Mr. Hayes, who had charge of the incoming money, into their confidence and told him that they would go to Dearborn and ask Mr. Henry Ford, the automobile magnate, to buy some Liberty Bonds of them. Mr. Hayes admired their spunk, but warned them that this would be of no use, since they would never obtain permission to enter Mr. Ford's estate. The boys did not think that this would be impos- sible. The next day they did not attend school, and Mr. Hayes knew where they had gone. When they reached their destination, they found every entrance of the Ford home guarded, and, much to their dispair, the caretaker would not permit them to see lVlr. Ford. They decided to climb the tall fence that inclosed the estate, but found that the wires were charged with electricity. The reason for this was that at the time of the World War, Henry Ford had many enemies that might have harmed him had he not been protected At last the boys spied in the garden a tree overhanging the fence. Doing a few acrobatic stunts, they managed to jump from the tree into the garden, and, after straightening their clothes, they proceeded to the door of the Ford home. Mrs. Ford, seeing two well-dressed young men, admitted them. They conversed for a while, and Mrs. Ford played the organ for them. Soon Mr. Ford entered, and the boys were thrilled to see this great man. They talked about the bonds, and Mr. Ford told them that he had been buying many lately. How much do you think I ought to pay? asked Mr. Ford. We think that a man should pay according to his income, the boys answered. Mr. Ford laughed and began writing out two checks, while he told the boys that he wasn't able to give very much because he had already bought so many bonds and because he, too, was feeling the depression caused by the war. He then handed each a check for 550,000.00 Later, Mr. Hayes, counting the money that came in from other sales, almost fell off his chair when the boys laid two 550,000 checks before his eyes. Now, when one goes to Washington and has the privilege of visiting the United States Treasury, he sees, among other interesting things, a pen- nant which is a reminder of the victory of Northem High School. nty-one 'J' M T.. .W ...rw -rf .. JANUARY 1 9 s 6 VIKING TORTURE By H. Trnenbaum lVly host, a tall man with broad shoulders sagging beneath some invis- ible weight, occupied a rickety, uncomfortable stool, one of the three pieces of furniture in the vast room. Several candles, flickering weakly on the table at his side. only succeeded in raising dancing shadows which added to the eerie atmosphere. While he sat in one of his frequent brooding moods, I wandered about. candle in my hand, inspecting this weird room. lt resembled the dungeon of some baronial castle from medieval times. The walls were built with massive rough blocks of stone and the floor was paved with llag-stones. One great bolt-studded oaken door, hanging on huge, wrought-iron hinges, provided the only means of access to the room, which was so realistically designed that, even though situated in the heart of a modern American city, I expected at any moment to see spectres in bright armor materialize in the murky gloom. Stranger still were the collections of grim torture implements and carving sets scattered about on the walls and lloor. ln one dim corner stood that favorite of the art of torture, the rack. As I stood there contemplating its efficiency. ghastly picures of excruciating agony appalled me. Who knew what purpose the rack had served? Had it been a tool of the Spanish Inqui- sition? I shuddered involuntarily, and yet some kind of morbid fascination made me continue the inspection. Evil scourges, thumb-screws, and Chinese boots, deadly iron hooks and pincers, a scavenger's daughter-this collection was complete. too complete. Then as l approached my host, I studied his enigmatic face. Bushy eyebrows overhung a pair of deep-set, brooding eyes, and gave him an ap- pearance of intense concentration. When I sat down, he aroused himself from his lethargy. You think these instruments are terrible? he asked, apparently guessing my thoughts. Perhaps they are, he continued, but it doesn't take such machines as you see here for the purpose of torture. Mental tor- ture can be quite as effective. I disputed this point with my host, as I had not yet forgotten those pictures of physical agony conjured by the rack. Finally my host exclaimed impatiently, All right! Listen to me. In a small village of Ukraine lived two jewish youths. They had been friends ever since they were children, so that a mutual bond existed between them that was stronger than brotherhood. Though practically the same age. they were as different as night and day. David, dark skinned and slender, was a serious person, more settled and more mature. Sam, on the other hand, was a bit flighty and frivolous. David had undertaken to watch over Sam to see that he avoided trouble. Life went on quietly and uneventfully in this dull, peaceful village. Then, one beautiful summer day in 1903, a rumor disnipted the sluggish Page Srumty-two ' 559,-f --...f V sl' I- 1.

In a short time the rumor became a certainty, and the Jews of the village grew fearful of a similar occurrence. Their fears were not unfounded. The Russians became excited and ugly. With the passing of each day, the tension mounted like a sullen storm cloud in a dark sky. One day about two weeks later, an unfortunate incident occurred which precipitated a veritable butchery of the jewish inhabitants. A Jewish shoe-maker entered into an argument with a Russian Cossack. This aroused the Russians. and they began gathering on the main street. Their whisperings boded no good. All afternoon this group persisted, growing larger and an- grier. Finally, in the evening, one of the Cossacks, growing quite bold, urged the rest on to action. That was all the spark needed. With wild shouts, the enraged mob. waving torches aloft, ran through the town to the Jewish sec- tion. The Russians gave their victims no chance. Breaking into the houses they befell the Jews, whose senses were still dulled by sleep. Brutally the Cossacks kicked and beat men, women, and children alike. Houses, with their occupants trapped within, were set afiire. Screams, heart-rending screams, echoed and re-echoed in the night. On, the battle raged with un- abated fury. David and Sam had been bound and taken to a field near the sham- bles. There, several Cossacks vigorously dug until they had a hole six feet by six. David, still bound, was placed on his back in the bottom of this grave. Cuessing the intention of the Russians, he began screaming and sob- bing. Then. Sam was taken. struggling and crying, and held by two peasants in an unright position in the hole until several other peasants filled it with the dirt up to his forehead. With this work finished, the Russians left. Yes, it was quite a diabolic scheme. Imagine the thousand deaths Sam died as he felt the life slowly being choked out of David. Morning came bright and clear with a great sun shining down on the village. The frenzy and rioting had died down, and the Russians had gone home to sleep off the nervous reaction. The scene of the massacre was a gory sight. Smoke rose in thin wisps from charred piles of wood that once were houses. All about lay corpses. To the ruins that morning stole scared, silent groups to salvage what they could. They came upon Sam, now a raving lunatic. His screams and sobs were all that broke the stillness of the morning. Drops of perspiration streaked has face, and dripped on the hot sand below his chin. It was quite a task to dig Sam out. Having no shovels, the jews set to work with sticks, boards, and their own hands. To make matters worse, Sam, who did not recognize them as rescue assistants, spat at them, and con- tinued his screaming. He quieted down when liberated, and was taken in by some kind family who cared for him. As the years passed, Sam gradually regained his sanity, but the inci- dent left its mark forever. For several moments my host sat staring before him. Then shrugging his shoulders he arose, and with a hesitating, halting step that I had not noticed before, he led the way from the room.

The probability of using old and tried methods of delivering code messages such as the mail, cable or wireless have been abandoned because of easy intervention and interference of the government, and because such communications are too slow. Of course, we do not believe that any broadcasting station would knowingly or willingly accept any such messages to be delivered to spies through the medium of radio, but it would be a simple matter for a group of spies to buy time on a radio broadcasting station, to back some com- mercial product. Suppose we figure out just how they could deliver their messages without the knowledge of the public, who may be listening to a favorite story or dance music program over the air. After amusing you with the strains of the theme melody, an enthusi- astic announcer will deliver his coded advertising. Are you purchasing that delicious, carefully packed 'Readyright Beef' used by thousands of hungry men? Even now as you are listening to this program, at least ten thousand men are awaiting this product, which costs only twenty-five cents--just two dimes and a nickel, exactly.

Protect your well-being -They are in dire need of food, and can not exist much longer without it.

The stops it made for the larger towns and cities seemed mere hesitations. It was almost as if something tantalizing were held in front of it, drawing it eagerly forward. Among those in the day coach sat a wlell-built middle-aged man, whose thoughts, as the train clicked off the miles, teased and tormented him as though Satin himself were in personal attendance. After twenty-five years the man was going home. He chuckled grimly to himself, going home - famous enough to be welcomed by the mayor and a brass band, yet he was riding in an uncomfortable day coach, because he wanted obscurity. Be- cause memory tortured him, he desired, above everything else, his return to be as inconspicuous as possible. He had left home under a cloud, and memory dogged him. He was returning because recollections of his childhood home were calling him back. Nervously he his face as the thoughts of that last night beat upon his brain. D-n, couldn't memory leave him alone? But memory, unmindful of feelings, increased the pressure of attack, and projected the scenes on his mind more clearly. As vividly as if it were only yesterday, he saw the body of the man lying on the floor, a bruised, beaten body, and across the forehead a small gash trickling blood.. To the man standing over it, the gash seemed huge, and the slowly clotting blood terrorized him. Bending down fearfully, he felt of the body, and it seemed cold and stiff. Straightening, he tiptoed to the door. and pausing only for a last glimpse at the man on the floor, he fled to his own room. Two hours later he was aboard a cross country bus, his destination un- decided. His conscience continually urged him to go back, but some inner cowardice prevailed and forced him on. Remorse gripped him. The fault had been his alone. He should have known better than to have brought liquor into the rooms. He had defied the college rules and infuriated the authorities. After the second bottle, when everything was getting rather hazy, he and Charley had started to quarrel, the point in debate having slipped his mind. Drunken men are prone to argue over trivial things, and soon a fight had started. After having tusselled and wrecked the fumiture, Charley had picked up a bottle and charged at him. He, Eddie, had also grabbed Page Seventy-nina was Wfww we-ws fm WNW one and the two descending weapons crashed in mid air Charley s had shattered to pieces but Eddie s had struck the fatal blow Charley had crumpled to the floor a tmy gash on his forehead And then like a craven he Eddie had run away The man in the day coach, now an older and quieter Eddie, shuddered as the scenes of the twenty five years unfolded in his mind. He had toured California, and then he had sailed to the Orient. I-le had taken part in one of China's many revolutions, and because of his natural recklessness, he had become known as the greatest of all soldiers of fortune. l-le hadn't changed his name: he had respected his conscience that much. Yet through all the reckless thrilling years, he could not quite efface the picture of that bruised body with the telltale mark on its forehead.

Tense with excitement, he walked unsteadily to the door to be met by loud shouts of Hurrah for Eddie Arnoldsf' Tumult reigned, and dimly he could see banners bearing his name. Besieged by the reporters, who had been busy arranging headlines- Eddie Arnolds, Brilliant Soldier of Fortune Chooses Modest Day Coach, and hemmed in by the crowds, he managed to reach the speaker's platform. Confusedly he grabbed the hand someone extended to him, and immediately he was blinded by the photographer's flashes. When the mist cleared from his eyes, he saw a large man before him. welcoming him home and calling him Eddie-and-why-this was Charley! Leaning close he gasped, Are you Charley?

Thus the seven sins are put in their places by this haloed pair, and twenty million dial turners grow grey. The real trouble with these programs is that they are not, in any par- ticular, true to life. I'm certainly not a dyed-in-the-wool realist, but I do resent impossibilities masquerading as realities. It's not only absurdg it is childish. You may say that these programs are created for children and not adults, but I know many families who do not permit Nancy and Bert to listen to Oriental mysticism, meaningless murders-even though solved, oh. so neatly by Upright Youth.

I fail to see how they benefit Annie May or can possibly entertain little Willie Smith, sitting glued to the microphone miles away. I could go on and on, but unlike the Ancient Mariner, I won't. The above specific cases are enough, I hope. I think that this situation is not one that has to be borne as if it were a plague visited upon us for our sins.

It was a warm summer evening. She was sitting in her comfortable home on Shady Boulevard, her lights out, waiting for her husband's late return from the office. Her neigh- bors' houses were also dark, for on that lovely evening their occupants were motoring in the country or through the parks. Idly watching the moving panorama of the street in front, she noticed a man strolling along the side- walk, intently eyeing the darkened houses. Mrs. jones' heart missed several beats as the man, after carefully looking about him, walked up the side drive to the house next door and stopped at the side entrance. Was he- Could it be possible?-Yes, he was trying keys to the side door, which he opened within a surprisingly short time and entered. Mrs. Jones rushed to the telephone. e There is a burglar in the house next door to 250 Shady Boulevard, she told the police operator. There will be someone there in a minute, came the assuring response Mrs. Jones put down the telephone, and scarcely did she have time tc walk back to her front window when the bright headlights of a car drew up to the curb of the adjoining house. Uniformed figures darted from the car and placed themselves at the front and side entrances. A second car slid up behind the first, and other figures rushed towards the rear of the house. At that moment the dark form of a man burst from the back door and fled towards the alley. There came the sharp crack of police pistols. A police ambulance appeared. A stretcher-borne figure was placed in it, and the am- bulance sped away, the mournful wail of its siren playing a melancholy dirge to the wounded man gasping for life inside. Mr. Smith is also receiving congratulations on his promptness and per- spicacity. Leaving his neighborhood grocery late one Saturday night with the week-end groceries under his arm, he noticed three men in a car at the opposite curb. Mr. Smith did not like the appearance of these men, but he thought it better to proceed about his own business. When he reached the front of his home at the end of the block, he turned and looked back. He saw two of the men entering the store. Something about their furtive actions and sinister appearance alarm-ed Mr. Smith, and he hastily entered his home and seized the telephone. I think there is a holdup in the grocery store on B Avenue, between A and D streets, he said to the police operator. Pagv E ight y-two . . . ggniik an til as A .M iv JANUARY 1 9 s 6 VIKING There was a moment's pause during which plugs clicked, and then Mr. Smith heard a voice chanting: l3-3, I3-4 scout cars, and I3 cruiser, hold- up in grocery store, B Avenue between A and D Streets. Thank you, said the police operator, coming back to Mr. Smith, there will be someone there directly. Mr. Smith returned to the front of his house. As he did so, he saw the two men dash from the store and enter their car which immediately started away. Almost simultaneously came the blast of a' police siren as a scout car whirl-ed past Mr. Smith's house. The criminals also heard and stepped on the gas. Too late. From the opposite direction came an answering shriek. and the bright headlights of the cruiser came rushing down the street, while in the distance could be heard the scream of the siren of the second scout car pleading for the right of way in order to reach the scene as quickly as pos- sible. Cornered. the criminals drove their car over the curb and leaped out. The cruiser was already upon them. Two of them surrendered rather than take a chance on the shot guns, but the third managed to escape. Well, the downtown dicks would take care of him, and they would have no trouble finding him with two of his pals in custody to work on. These incidents, multiplied over many times, tell the story of this new helper in the war on crime. To fire and riot, holdup and murder, accident or domestic tragedy, speedy police patrol cars, guided by commands picked out of the -ether, are darting here and there throughout our city, carrying the protection and assistance of the law. So efficient have they become that the average time for responding to an emergency call has been reduced to min- utes, and in many cases, to seconds. When, after the World War, a wave of crime threatened to engulf our great cities, police officials began calling on every possible aid to help them to stem the tide of thuggery. The automobile was already an important fac- tor. Every department had its minute cars, flyers, and patrol autos. But to keep these cars under control, they had to be stationed at ,certain fixed points until dispatched on emergency calls, and had to be returned to these points as soon as the emergency had passed. The advent of the radio seemed to offer a means whereby all of these cars might join the 'patrolling force and be dispatched to the scene of crimes by radio commands. But there were difficulties. The first radios used were standard sets, and the police broad- casting stations had to send out their calls on wave lengths already in use by commercial stations. Protests followed from both the stations and the pub- lic. Radio patrol cars were withdrawn from the streets, and the department used its radio only to send out one or two general broadcasts a day, giving not only the ntunbers of stolen cars but descriptions of missing persons and criminals wanted: But radio was of no help in emergency situations. To the police department of the city of Detroit goes the honor of first working out an efficient system of radio patrol. The men who accomplished this feat are Sergt. Cox, Patrolman Vogler and Patrolman Fitzgerald, mem- bers of the Signal Bureau. working under the direction of their chief, ln- Page Eighty-three 4.3. H 1- v .',. --Nm , We 3 M mmmm wx i,,,,,l ,I wx wp is 1 JANUARY 1 9 s 6 VIKING spector William Potts. For three years, these men toiled incessantly, experi- menting, trying, and changing. Finally they reduced the obstacles to two. The first was weak signals, the second, ignition noise. The first was solved by the radio manufacturers, who brought out an improved vacuum tube which would give any desired strength of signal. But this only increased and made more intolerable the noise from the ignition system of the automobile. Then one day one of the officers was riding home in a jitney in which was a radio. It was tuned in on a local broadcasting station and was re- ceiving the program distinctly without any ignition noise. The officer made inquiries, and the driver showed him how he had inserted carbon-resistance plates in his spark plugs, which cut off the radio w'ave given out by the spark jumping the gap in the plugs. So far as is known, this jitney driver, whose name is unkown. was the only person who had discovered that carbon- resistance plates in the spark plugs would kill ignition noise. Today manu- facturers of spark plugs build these resistance plates into the plugs, and that is the reason one may enjoy distinct radio reception in his car. With this last obstacle removed, the success of radio patrol cars was assured, and soon Detroit was enjoying the benefit of this new ally against crime. The success obtained by the Detroit Department made it the center of interest for the whole world. When the news spread of the accomplishment. emmissaries from all over the country and the world began to arrive to study the new system. The chief of police of Paris, France, of Berlin, Germany, and the chief of Scotland Yard, London, England, came in person to study its operation and obtain plans. Buenos Aires sent an attachee from the legation at Washington. Representatives from as far away as New Zealand and Aus- tralia arrived. and practically every city of size in the United States or Canada either sent a representative or wrote asking for information and plans. fhe next step will be to perfect two-way radio transmission so that officers in the patrol cars can talk directly to the dispatcher. As it is now, officers in patrol cars cannot get help, except by going to a telephone and losing valuable time. Recently, a scout car chased an automobile containing safe crackers all the way down Twelfth Street and past the very door of a station without being able to get help, and the thugs got away. If the offi- cers had been able to call the dispatcher from their car, telling him the direc- tion of the chase, other scout cars and cruisers could have been converged to that locality, forming a net about the fugitives. Two-way transmission is used successfully in smaller cities. Highland Park and Bay City are using it with satisfactory results. In Detroit, to overcome distance, the interference of high buildings, and the high-tension, electrical apparatus, a radio set is required that is too complicated for the ordinary person to operate. Having already set a mark in radio achievement, the Detroit Department is anxious to continue its leadership by being the first to accomplish successfully dir-ect communication between all patrol cars and the dispatcher. Patrolmen Vogler and Fitzgerald are now striving to produce a simple, easily operated set: and if perseverance, zeal, and energy can accomplish this, these men will be successful.

VIKING MEANDERINGS ON THE SUBJECT OF RADIO By Virginia Dyzr On the hug-e stage of the Metropolitan Opera House in New York, a famous diva is singing. She stands with her arms outstretched and her head thrown back, while from her throat wells the haunting melody of Toscelli's Serenade . She invests the air with a delicate lightness which alone can make the song truly effective. Tonight is her American debut, and the micro- phone in front of the stage will carry her glorious voice thousands of miles over land and water. The pugnacious prow of the U. S. S. ARIZONA plows through the Pa- cific, out of Manila, bound for Honolulu. Up on the signal bridge, Signalman O'Neill is taking a surreptitious smoke and wishing that his watch were over so that he might eat. As he takes off his white cap, the slight breeze of a late tropic afternoon pleasantly ruffles his hair, and he leans back against the signal tower and watches his cigarette describe a wide arc in the air as he flips it expertly away. Signalrnan O'Neill is quite fed up with long days at sea, and the alluring prospect of liberty in Honolulu tomorrow occupies his thoughts. He is dimly aware that a radio is playing scmewhere below, pro- bably in the officers' mess. As he half starts to re-enter the tower, a strain of Toscelli's Serenade, poignantly sweet, catches his ear, Unconsciously his body assumes its former attitude, and a thoughtful expression, rather foreign to him. takes possession of his homely, freckled countenance. The profun- diti-es of life do not bother Signalman O'Neill as a rule. Perhaps his mood is the epitome of loneliness. What is there in that exquisite music that sets him to soliloquizing? Are his thoughts of the future or of the past? What ef- fect will this unaccustomed introspection produce, if any? O'Neill! a voice suddenly barks. The object of this annoyed sum- mons awakes from his reverie with a perceptible start and vanishes into the tower with an abstracted Aye, aye, sir! The radio plays on. ll. At nine of a Saturday evening in November, the lighted windows on Chicago's Fourth Street are cheery patches in the dingy housefronts. Along the sidewalk trudge the tired feet of Joe Scapelli. joe runs one of those little fruit stands down on South State Street. He has closed up a bit early to- night, and perhaps we shall presently discover why. Now he is turning into the yard of a house. As he climbs the steps, the door is opened. Here's Pop! shouts little Vito, who is promptly picked up by Pop and carried into the small flat. The Scapellis congregate in the kitchen on cold evenings because the wood range there is their only heat. The light, after prescribed Fourth- Street fashion, is furnished by one shamelessly unadorned bulb suspended from the ceiling by a tired-looking wire. Joe seats himself at the table, and Pug: Eighty-five fi:-3, ff JANUARY 1 9 3 6 VIKING his eyes wander to the shiny new radio ensconced proudly in an alcove, ob- viousy intended for an icebox. Tuma on-a da radio, Giuseppe, an' be careful--no feengermarks. An' don' mak' her-a too loud. An announcer acquaints the listeners with the appearance of the bril- liant crowd assembled at the Metropolitan. Joe turns to his wife, Rosa. Da diva from Italia--she seeng tonight. l close up a leetle early to hear-a her. A short silence and then the music, soft at first but increasing in volume, fills the room. Ah! 'l'oscelli's 'Serenadef Quiet, Vittoria, Vito, listen! The dulcet tones of the diva's voice seem to satisfy ,loe's critically in- clined ear. His fork is laid down, and before his eyes pictures of far-off Tuscany take form, then they vanish to be replaced by new ones-a crooked olive tree etched against a flawless sky-a donkey cart filled with laughing children--a small stone shrine bathed in mellow sunlight. The music softly fades. ,loe is asleep with his head on his arms. The radio plays on. lll. High above the northeastern plains of Wyoming, a pale, cold moon emerges slowly from behind a dark cloud. Now its light is traveling swiftly over brittle wind-swept prairie grass. It passes over a bald rise in the ground, inquiringly penetrates a clump of cottonwoods, then shies jealously away from a bar of warm light emanating from the open door of a rambling wooden structure. Inside this structure is a group of men seated atatable, en- gaging in a leisurely game of blackjack. Suddenly big George gets to his feet to close the door. l had enough 0' that wind yesterday, fixin' fences. The glow of the mantle lamp picks out various decorations on the walls, mostly newspaper clippings and lurid calendars from the lumber com- pany at Newcastle, seventy-five miles away. Sitting with chair tipped back against the wall is a young man, tentatively known as The Kid. Nobody knows anything about him. He just arrived today. Can't we have some music, George? Several pairs of eyes turn with slightly veiled curiosity toward him. His voice is low and deep. Sure thing, Kid. See what you can get on that thing. Joe had the battery charged over at Horse Creek yesterday, so she oughtta perform. The old battery set is George's pride and joy. Suddenly a strain of di- vine music, slightly distorted by static, proceeds from its face. What's the name io' that piece? asks Joe, the foreman. Toscelli's 'Serenade', replies The Kid. Turn it off, and get some good guitar music. ffhis from Pete, the star horse wranglenl Page Eighty :rx 4 ,, . .J.g..1s Q ' ' . . . 3 .

Where's my war bag, George? Why, in the tool shed where l was lixin' it. Thanks, The Kid replies as he shrugs into an old sheepskin. He opens the door and disappears into the windy night with the echo of Toscelli's Serenade in his ears. The radio plays on. Back at the Metropolitan in New York, the usually discreet applause has overstepped its bounds and become almost deafening. The diva, with smiles and a pretty speech, signifies that this is her last call. Ushers carrying huge baskets of flowers follow her from the stage. The heavy curtain descends. 0 LITTLE KNOWN FACTS ABGUT RADIO By Patricia Bau mgartnn Little does anyone know what goes on beyond the receiving set, when he turns the dial How many of these facts did you know? Many famous stars suffer nausea when they make their first radio ap- pearance. It is a Radio City policy that formal evening dress is compulsory for all programs, producers, and announcers after 6 P. M. On most of the network entertainments, the programs are repeated several hours later for the West. The heavy studio doors at Radio City are equipped with handles, not knobs. -Knobs have a tendency to rattle. Nothing is more unwelcome in a radio station than a stray rattle, unless it's a lady with bangles or a taffeta dress. Strips of heavy carpeting are placed under the microphone to deaden the performers' footsteps and to prevent the sound of noises or instruments from bouncing off the floor. This is very important in balancing a band. Every time the President of the United States wishes to go on the air. the networks must be cleared, which means that broadcasting companies have to refund time charges to all commercial sponsors who happen to be on at that hour. During his lirst year in office, President Roosevelt spoke to the country twenty-nine times. Station WJAG once invited a champion hog-caller to demonstrate on l'agr lfiglzty-srwn my A iw JANUARY 1 9 3 6 VIKING its wave length. With the first fancy halloo the station went off the air, and the voluminous voice cost the establishment five hundred dollars to repair the equipment. ln radio, the finger on the nose is not a gesture of derision but merely means the program is on the nose, which means, on time. No actor in the excitement of a broadcast can follow a script typed single space. Will Rogers was the only radio performer faside from the president, who could consistently refuse to submit a copy of what he was going to say for censorship and get away with it. Every program must start at twenty seconds after the minute and end at ten seconds before the minute. Any deviation of more than ten seconds in either direction is a disgraceg and, if for any reason a sponsor loses as much as sixty seconds at the beginning of his program, he is entitled to a substantial refund on his time charges. To the sponsor, the commercials are the really fascinating part of his program, and the average sponsor will raise more rumpus if the company's name or product is mispronounced by a seventy-five-dollar-a-week announcer than he will if his four-thousand-dollar-a-week performance star drops dead in front of the microphone. 0 WHAT THE RADIO MEANS TO A BLIND MAN By flnthony Tamrr Of the many ways in which the radio is serving civilization, there is one we must note in particular-the way in which it is serving the blind. We see its importance to the business world, its part in intemational correspon- dence, its need for amusement in the home, even to the poorest of families, but to the blind person it is giving something which makes life sweeter and more complete. Before the invention of radio, almost everything had to be repeated to a blind person, making his dependence upon friends and family almost unbearable. Now. at the twist of a dial, the events of the day are narrated to him. at no expense of daily energy to his family. The reading of the news is merely one of the many advantages of the radio to the man without sight. Plays, concerts, speeches, and various other programs of spiritual or material value are at his disposal. The hiring of a guide to escort him to the crowded concert hall or to other places of amusement is now unnecessary. l-le can have a ringside seat and never be late for a football game. Football and baseball become his favorite sports. The lack of vision is less and less a handicap. His spirit is less broken: there is less time for gloom. He is as much associated with the outside world as any other individual: he has a world of his own with everything m lt. Pag: frghty eight V' f CQtf0'19 ' vw awww W.

As always, the billows were just out of reach and seemed to pull away from grasping fingers. Suddenly a soft breeze carrie out of nowlhere and stirred the motionless clouds. They took form as they passed before my dr-eamy eyes, taking me back to my nursery rhymes and school days. One of the first I fancied was little Pan- dora. Then a sight gladdened my heart, the great white steed of Sir Galahad, the one that he rode in his quest of the Holy Grail. Soon the sky changed to a bright gold. and there before my eyes came the most beautiful ladies, in creamy white. riding in a chariot of gold drawn by gleaming white steeds prancing along this floating carpet. Soon the sky deepened to a purplish hue, and darkness came with different beauties--darkness with its mysteries, its twinkling stars. the big moon, and quietness, but the thing most precious to me was gone--day and all its beautiful pictures. 0 HEARTS AND FLOWERS By Waltzr Klein I write a song of radios, A Sunday night with Major Bowes. Mary jane, with tresses brown, Sings a song of her home town. A few false notes, and well, oh well, All right Mary, there's the bell! Mary feels so sad and blue Thinks her chance has fallen through, Now, now, Mary, do not cry. Major says you still may try. We are sorry that you blundered.

I hear from the shaking loud-speaker The clatter of crowding feet, The sound of a door that is banging, Then the theme-song, tinkling and sweet. From my program I see, says the announcer, We'll first hear a trio affair: Petite Alice and giggling Allegra, And Edith of the red, red hair. A whisper, and then a silence, And I know by the numerous sighs The kids have forgotten their parts again,- Not at all to my surprise. But-- a sudden blare from the speaker, A sudden blast in my ears! The kids have started the piece again, And it's worse than my greatest fears! It shivers and shatters my timbers, It makes me clutch at my hair: If I try to escape, it surrounds meg It seems to be everywhere. Do you think, O radio children, Because you have entered my wall Such an old listener-in as I am Is not a match for you all? I have you fast in my powerg A twist of the hand, you depart Into the great silent ether.

The chairman of the activities committee then made the following report: The club had a head start because the officers were elected at our semi-annual banquet in May. Under capable administration, we have had one of the most successful years in the history of the club. The officers were: president, Richard Stegmang vice-president, David ,Iasseyg secretary, Stanford Sobel, and treasurer, Richard Gunsberg. We started the year off by publishing and distributing schedules of football games played by Northern. A stag party was next on our program for the term, and it turned out very successfully. We also aided in the sale of the N pins. Our next social venture was into the realm of mixed parties and this one was a Hallowe'en party. We also visited Mr. Caswell's estate. Bob Murphy, a Detroit Times sports writer, spoke to us at a meeting which proved to be educational and engrossing. The year closed with our semi-annual banquet. An excellent report, commented the president. Now we will hear from the Membership committee. Well, Mr. President, began the chairman of the committee, when the year opened. we had nine members, including the four officers and H. Cohen, S. Feinstein, O. Hertz, S. Luzkow, and R. Stein. Since then we have accepted four new members, including Carelick, A. Shilllcovslcy, B. Schu- maker and S. Wizer, making a total of thirteen members. Marks, sociability, co-operative ability, and all-around good fellowship entered into the accept- ance or discarding of all prospective members. All new members were given a formal and informal initiation. Are there any additions? If not, this meeting is adjourned, and the next will be January, l936.

H i storian Under the sponsorship of Miss Elliott, Miss Teninga and Miss Clawson, and with the aid of capable officers, Trideal has for another term loyally up- held the three ideals for which it stands: Friendship, Scholarship and Service. There have been several very enjoyable social meetings, and many business meetings this semester. We also have had the unique experience of visiting the Merrill-Palmer school. One of the big projects launched this year was the procuring of club pins. This was acomplished at the beginning of the semester. and now each member is probably wearing her small emblem of loyalty. The new' members initiated this term were Mary Wetstein, jacala Cun- Eizr, Calista Jayne, Eleanor Dise, Ruth Patterson, Alice Hoff and Lorraine iott. This year, Zelma Shoob received the Trideal gold medal for the best undergraduate scholar, and Julia Smith likewise received a medal for the best undergraduate athlete. Since one of Trideal's main activities is charity, members throughout the year have rendered service to others by reading to the blind and giving baskets of food to the unfortunate.

Only Julia Smith and Sarah Graves had had any previous experience, most of the other candidates being tenth and eleventh graders. The team put up a hard fight in its opening contest with Highland Park only to have the Parker's captain push two goals past Northern's defense to take a 3-0 victory. l'lamtramck's powerful team, aided by the smallness of its field. took advantage of Northern's poor passing attack to snatch a 3-0 victory. Northern broke into the scoring column for the first time during the season against Redford, but it was not sufficient. Once more the team went clown to defeat. being on the lower end of a 3-l score. Miss Delaney, coach, inaugurated a new system this Fall, when, in- stead of choosing one captain for the entire season, the team elected a dif- ferent girl for that position in each game. Since only Florence Beaver, Sarah Graves, Barbara Richards and Julia Smith will be lost by graduation, prospects for the future are exceedingly bright. With a year's experience back of the others, next season's history may be an entirely different story. - Page One Hundred Eight warm .. rnf2 ?'.ff'Gft-4 ef.-f1'.s'f2'1L'iir-If-2 ,..,fv W' - , -fb JANUARY 1 9 3 6 vncnsro First Row-Miss Giddings, Maurer, Guenther, Siebert.

The team beat Northwestern and Highland Park, and tied with Central and Cooley. In the Northwestern match, the girls playing the last four positions came through to help the team win 5 to 3. The next meet, this time with Highland Park, turned out to be quite a surprise for all concerned. For the first time in many years, a Northern girls' golf team defeated a Highland Park team. And not to be satisfied merely with winning, they gave the knife a twist, taking it 7 to 0. The team's next opponent, Central, always a formidable adversary, lived up to its reputation and the best Northern could do was to tie, 4 to 4. The last match, with Cooley, was marked mainly by defaults, but the Cardinals managed to tie, 3 to 3. After being postponed twice because of rain, the All-City meet took place on Tuesday, October fifteenth. Fifty-four girls participated, their scores ranging from 49 to l I6 for nine holes. Central came out on top, two of their girls taking first and second places. joan Willis and Jean Frank were the win- ners, their scores being 49 and 5l, respectively. Dorothy Hanna led the list of Northern players with a 58, followed by Betty Bean with a 61 , and jacola Guenther with a 65. Miss Ciddings is the girls' golf coach, and the members of the team are Betty Bean, Dorothy Hanna, Jacola Guenther, Virginia MacKinnon, Alice Dougherty, Barbara Mauer, Maxine Siebert and Mary Elizabeth McClelland.

By the first of May, when the hrst match was scheduled, the positions on the team had be-en filled as follows: first singles, Adele Rosenberg: second singles, Barbara Longbothamg third singles, Una Gievers, first doubles, Marian Shryer and jane Wastellg second doubles, Jessica Schwartz and Fan- nie Schwartzg third doubles, Lorraine Elliot and Mary lVlellor. This choice proved effective, the team being victorious in three out of their four matches. Their opponents were Highland Park, MacKenzie, Pershing and Northeastem. Adele Rosenberg was chosen captain, while Clara Grossfeld, although prevented from playing by a shoulder injury, undertook the management of the team. Although only two veterans, Adele Rosenberg and Barbara Longbotham, had returned to practice, the rest of the girls fully made up for their lack of experience by their abundance of spirit and interest. The first match was with Highland Park, whom the Eskimos defeated for the first time in many years by a score of 4-2. The situation was re- versed in the next match when MacKenzie defeated our team by that same score. Barbara Longbotham and Una Cievers were the two winners in this contest. Northern won the two final matches with Pershing and Northeastern, 5-l and 4-2 respectively. Page On: Hundrrd Ten X 3 gb u at 3' 5 3 ,. . ' ' , ...wwf ' U 1-X - ,. , . ' T.

Northem has for the first time in several seasons emerged with an All-City contender. The team, made up of five runners, has had only two chances to show this season-the East Side meet and the All-City clash. The entire squad was entered in the semi-final grind, but only one man was successful, all of the others finishing, with the exception of one. Northern's contender for the final contest was Warren Anderson, who placed eighth in the East Side grind to win this honor. Last year, Warren. also the only man to finish in a place, could do no better than fourteenth in this run, which was also his finishing mark in this year's City race. Practice started early this season, and by the time of the first meet, every man felt himself in top snape. The big meet was held at the two and a half mile River Rouge Course, and was unfamiliar ground to the group after their weeks of practice under the guidance of Coach McRay. The members of this sport will now turn their attention to practicing for the regular indoor track meet, due to start after Thanksgiving.

The success of the team has depended largely on the outstanding per- formance given by Hamilton Wilson and Elmer Sweetina, who won the City Doubles title. These boys fought their wlay through many pairs from East Side schools to finally eliminate Highland Park and become victors in the East Side contest. They were then paired with the victors of the West Side race -the Central High School team. Being a little nervous, the Northern boys dropped the first set. They soon conquered their nervousness, however, and took the last two sets in smooth style to become the tennis champions of the city. There was no inter-school competition such as last year in which Nor- thern carne through with Hying colors, but was stopped in the final stand against Northwestem. However, under the able coaching of Mr. Lewis. 0'Hara, Cohen, Patton and Bilton, the other members of the team, played and won the Team Championship of the City. A loving cup held by Cooley High School for several seasons will be presented to Northern High School as a result of the season's successes.

Football Completing its I935 grid schedule without a single victory, Nor- thern's football team ended the most unsuccessful season in the history of the school. With only four lettermen returning, none from the starting team, Coach Powlers faced a rather disagreeable task in picking a squad up to the usual Northern standard. Roman Shtyk, quarterback, was chosen to captain the eleven. The Eskis opened the season against a highly touted Denby team. The Tars kicked. passed, and ran their way to four touchdowns in the first three periods. In the final quarter, Northern seemed to find itself, but it was just forty-hve minutes too late, for the whistle blew signifying a 28-0 Denby victory. Still wincing from the Denby slashing, the Eskis facesd a strong High- land Park team, and were defeated I4-0. The big Parker forward wall was too great an asset for the light Eskimos to overcome, and played a large part in the Polar Bear victory. Playing the role of a visitor for the first time this season, Northern Page One Hundred Thirteen ' P f'9'-:api .E JANUARY 1 9 s 6 vncnsrc was defeated by Pershing I3-O. After outplaying the Generals in the first half, Northern weakened in the third and fourth quarters to give Pershing their scores. The first came late in the third period as the result of a 30-yard pass, and the second early in the fourth on a blocked punt. Next Northern entangled with Hamtramck, and was sent tumbling 4l-7. The Cosmos ran circles around the Eskimos, scoring 'l3 points in the first and 7 in the second, I4 in the third, and 7 inthe fourth periods. Northern scored its first touchdown of the season when Incado recovered a Hamtramck fumble on the Cosmos five yard line late in the final quarter. After being held for two downs, Ben Clenner cut through guard for the score. Playing on the home lot again, Northern lost to Miller 7-6. Both teams played very sloppily until the last quarter, when the touchdowns were made. After Miller had scored on a series of line plays, the Eskis started a pros- perous passing attack which netted them their lone touchdown. Herman Casari got credit for the score, after taking Colin Weymouth's pass and scampering over the line. Another pass, Weymouth to Casari, failed to con- nect for the extra point as the gun sounded, ending the game. Perhaps a little down hearted by its lack of success, Northern lost its final game of the season to Cass, 25-6. The Technicians ran around the ends almost at will, and all their touchdowns were scored in this manner. The Eskimo touchdown was scored by Casari, who took a Weymouth pass in the end zone, late in the fourth period. To sum it all up, Northern scored I9 points all season as compared with 128 for opponents. The following boys were awarded Varsity letters: Anderson: H. Bemsteing R. Bushg H. Casarig W.
