We have tried to make you sense the joys, struggles, and triumphs which we experience every day at Parker High School. You Will, no doubt, notice our increased social, ath- letic, and scholastic program. Inspired by our principal, Miss Nellie Marie Quinn, we have launched into greater fields of activity, determined to develop our talents to capa- city. This story of endeavor and achievement is one worth telling. We hope you will find it of interest. 'I ' X 55 f 5 ' 4 ' w.. I 'v A LS . , 2535, . 4 :,e,,- f H2 ., 7?

The purpose of the program is to vitalize the work of the high school in the following seven major fields: RESEARCH Under the superintendent's guidance, each high school solves problems confronting it, not by guess Work or opinion, but by conducting investigations to find the facts. SOCIALIZATION So that students will become alert, articulate, responsible citizens, a student government is set up in our schools. Pupil leadership is evoked in classrooms, clubs, assemblies, and social activities. REMEDIAL READING Reading inability is the immediate cause of many failures. Therefore, remedial reading classes have been organized in our high schools in order that reading difficulties may be 'diagnosed and overcome. ADI USTMENT SERVICE This service assists pupils to use their abilities advantageous- ly, helping the able pupil and the less able one alike to realize their possibilities, whether for further education in school or out in the world, in adjusting themselves adequately. Cumulative records furnish helpful information on each student's educa- tional achievements, family history, health and Work records. PUBLIC RELATIONS Outside factors have a tremendous influence on the student's progress. The effectiveness of the school is being greatly in- creased by utilizing the assistance of civic, business, and philan- thropic organizations, particularly the Parker High Parent- Teacher Association. CHARACTER TRAINING To develop social consciousness and personal responsibility, and to combat juvenile delinquency, a vigorous program of character education is in operation. We strive to utilize every resource of the school and community to instill high ideals and right attitudes. THE PREVENTION OF PUPIL FAILURES Failures are almost unheard of in the Parker High School be- cause of provisions which have been made to prevent failures. The adjustment teacher diagnoses cases of failures and pre- scribes remedies. Every teacher has a conference period in which to tutor failing pupils. 11 9:-. eww l mssg,...,-.ny ' 21 ' ' J , '1 - ' ' wwe ,...,....., . , , ,W .. W ,, tr ' ws-rm-141 1-Mr... .

' Balanced living is fertile ground for character development: one's humor, carriage, rhythm, independence, humility: one's sensitiveness to order, harmony, color, design, and general sense of fitness. Character and personality come from inside. ' The teachers in the Parker High School have attempted to set up a school environment which is permissive, one that en- courages the students to speak up, take hold, and carry forward to success. Comfort and luxury are poor character builders. We believe that intense effort alone educates. Students put in- tense effort onlyinto those things which are vital to their inter- ests: wheels, engines, knives, money, candy, romance, movies, airplanes, sports, clothes, heroes, hamburgers, machines, and credit. ' We have tried to use these known interests as wedges by which we could open the flood gates of history, literature, the natural and exact sciences, music and the arts. Our struggle to get away from textbooks and curriculums set in narrow, academic compartments is still raging. In presenting the story of man's search for his primary necessities we have tried to show that human wants bear a close family resemblance over the face of the earth: that civilization is a pattern of interrela- tionships of natural resources, psychological fears and hatreds, nationalisms, telephones, armies, navies, credit, finance, and war. The story, when competently put, is easy for high school students to understand: that ancient conflict between human rights and property rights, between the might makes right theory and the golden rule. ' We are trying to break down compartment subject learning by substituting fundamental understandings of health, geo- graphy, politics, economics, and government. We believe we have struck a happy medium between regimentation and creativeness, between art and science, between intellect and emotion. Our goal is to develop to the maximum all that is in the student. I I 4 13 'gl i i s , ..

Between the thirteen periods of the school day, they tramp the lengthy corridors, fill the four floors and stairways, clang the innumerable steel lockers encased in the school walls. Like the clamor of a busy thorough- fare, Parker's halls resound with laughter, greetings of welcome, and the buzz of conversation. ' Parker's thirty four hundred students love their school. They are rabid advocates of learning, of reasonable social life, and fair play in ath- letics. To represent the Green and White in these fields against competing high schools is the cherished ambition of every student. Some realize their hope. Proudly they exhibit the emerald P, indicative of prowess in some com- petitive field. 14 i ' 7'1 W-A sw A , ' if ---- VwVwMg,,,,, V VV , VV V, ,. ,., V ,.,., , N ew-VV fffMV,,, -has ezrs- ' mnfmmmw ,f..m..s3 fP A' sri: A - L, VV 'V W, V --1' W -N f' WD,-ff,,V,q ,M.,,,, wr, ..,.,,,, , 1 V MW.

As youth of the most democratic republic in the World, students enjoy these privileges. Coercion and regimentation have no place in Parker. Students have their own opinions, likes, and dislikes --they work hard, play hard, live vigorously. Their symbol is not of the rifle or the machine gun: it is rather that oi the baseball bat, the volley ball, the tennis racquet, or the football. ' Parker, as a school, has done much in the last two years. In 1933, eighteen hundred pupils of a secondary school named Parker, moved from their old school building to the present Parker Senior High School. Today, thirty-four hundred occupy this modern building, With this increase in numbers has come the emerging of Parker as an outstanding school in Chicago. Respect for its high scholastic rating and its mighty teams is universal. And who is respon- sible for this change?-Typical young Americans-Parkerites. 15 ' i ' Officialdom in Parker is mostly concentrated in the school office. Students come in voluntarily or otherwise. ' When a Parkerite comes Xtardy, he goes to the attendance section off the middle stairway. Here he is given an admittance slip to class, plus a penalty. 17 ' ln the book room are stored away the texts which give Parkerites forehead- wrinkling problems. During the summer, the volumes repose on long shelves, but with the school year, each student receives his quota for his nightly vigils. ' Very few Parkerites ever see the furnaces that warm them for four years. Yet, here, in the bowels of the school building, begrimed men busily do their part to keep Parker in a healthful condition. o character 1 scholarship 0 leadership v service ' CHARACTER . . . Character is not given to us. Every individual must take of the influence about him and copy that which he desires. By contact and experience the boy and girl gather materials which form the characters of the man and woman. Pupils are very impressionable during their high school years. Therefore, it is of utmost importance that they be under an influ- ence which will leave the right impressions upon them. The activities and experiences of high school should contribute greatly to the formation of desirable character. ' LEADERSHIP . . . Within some there is born the desire to lead while others must continually fight against a natural tendency to remain in the background. In order to become a valuable member of society, an individual must overcome these latter inclinations. Encouraging students to assume responsibility and leadership is one of the main functions of the school. Students must also be taught to use their powers of influence in the right direction. Par- ticipation in various school activities offers excellent opportunity for de- veloping qualities of leadership. SCHOLARSHIP . . . A high scholastic standing is always commended at Parker High School. However, we believe that the true scholar not only seeks for personal ad- vancement, but endeavors to raise the standard of the entire school by sharing his knowledge with others. Frequently he tutors classmates who are having difficulty. According to the present grading system at Parker, the excellent and superior student must make some extra contribution to the classroom recitation. Often these students do creative projects which give the entire class a better understanding of the problem. ' SERVICE . . . No matter where one travels in the world today there is the call for serv- ice to your fellow men and to your country. In fact, throughout every civil- ization and in every age there has always been an unlimited demand for service from which there is no compensation except one's own satis- faction. School life offers countless opportunities for such service. Divi- sion room, clubs, and athletic teams, are but a few of the organizations which require service. In other words, Parkerites have become ac- quainted with the joy of unselfish service. 18 J F a g K w i if ii IN X i W XX QQ XXX x - ' A 4' -I1-V141 ' vflf 'f1,4,i1i.1,1' :af ffegsf 4 F '5W5iPYi2s1fswiss'-fff4f5'Vf25Pi'2YWmWLffmzfwiffilm4fvi1?ig41S1i t:3 azLL'1ff:Y1,1qi.g'x4 wfzggifgii.:A'?wsiPi5:?:lQf5l,'3:5 f : QL if Fifi 1 il Li'-U 1: A if ' yh:iVf'i:qf: -' 7' I ' Ml 3 if-7,5 W Q , . ,,,b . an gxWM..1W,M,Ws,wggsfsiwkwgi ,wily W4 14,9 i ,wmwm i,,,.-,M,M,,g,,,,N h i .

The problem of programing over thirty-three hundred students is one of her many tasks. Miss O'Connell has won the respect and admiration of the student body through her interest in their activities. I-Ier cheerfulness and sound ad- vice have helped many pupils surmount seemingly impos- sible difficulties encountered during their high school careers. 22 ADIUSTMENT TEACHERS ' Since the adjustment department began functioning three semesters ago, the theory that a certain percentage of every class will fail in at least one subject has been aban- doned. The purpose of the adjustment teach- er service, instituted by Superintendent Iohn- son, is to help the student make as much progress as is possible with his individual abilities. Educators no longer assume that all students have the same capacities for achievement and should be judged by the same standards. As every child is different in personality, so is he different in capability and should be given work accordingly. This process of adjusting the work to fit the stu- dent is the task of the adjustment teacher. ' One of the principal duties of Parker's adjustment teachers, Miss Louise Eddy and Mrs. Alicia Doran, is to give grammar school graduates objective and intelligence tests. These tests are returned to the adjustmnt teachers who grade them and select students for remedial classes. This department also offers suggestions to teachers and assists in the preparation of material for individual in- struction. Miss Eddy and Mrs. Doran also as- sist the class teachers in making special pro- visions for exceptionally bright pupils. These teachers work in cooperation with the Bureau of Child Study and supervise the care and arrangement of health sheets. The testing of pupils' vision and hearing comes under the work of this department. ' The investigation of failures is another important duty of these teachers. After de- termining the reasons for the failures, they endeavor to correct the difficulties. Often these students are assigned to some faculty member for coaching. These teachers inter- est themselves in the student who finds it difficult to complete the required work. They are also concerned about the child of ability who is not working to his full capacity. If they see a pupil capable of earning a supe- rior grade receiving fair or good, they inves- tigate his case. ' One of the most important points in the progressive program of the Chicago public schools is the use of cumulative records. Each student has a complete record which follows him from kindergarten through junior college, concerning his physical, emotional, mental, social, and educational develop- ment. These records are of great value to the adjustment teacher in handling success- fully and constructively cases of problem children: for example, retarded children recommended for remedial instruction, fast learning children, and absentees who have missed their work. This infonnation also aids the adjustment teacher in determining the causes of failures and other difficulties as the record of the child's aptitudes and ten- dencies over a period of years is available. 23 Miss Eddy Miss Doran Aww-f tmmw-M.m -f,..,....,........N..... , . ..., , 'mm mg 'ifiifw 1 2555Z'5?F sfkgfgglfsssfaf :X , Sil ky Mi' W , X 1 L K gf. 1 as .

Betty lane Nelson, Vice-Pres ' October, 1936, dates a memorable event in the history of Parker High School. lt was at this time that students, foreseeing possibilities, inaugurated a plan of student government. For the first time, the entire student body was consulted and allowed to vote upon m e a s u r e s which vitally interested everyone. As a result of this venture, there immediately appeared an en- riched program of social and extra- curricular activities. ' The Student Participation in School Control Organization has proved to be an effective means of character train- ing. By encouraging the cooperation and participation of every student in all school activities, this organization has given the student body practice and training in citizenship. The numer- ous elective and appointive positions in the S. P. S. C. O. develop the poten- tial qualities of leadership which might otherwise lie dormant. Upon the or- ganization of the Parker Chapter of the National Honor Society, this demo- cratic body added the advancement of scholarship to its many splendid ob- jectives. ' The legislative and judiciary powers of the S. P. S. C. O. are vested in a Gen- eral Assembly and a High Council. Members of the General Assembly are elected by their respective divisions, while members of the High Council are elected by the division room delegates. The duties of the High Council, consist- ing of two delegates from each grade semester, are supervising the election of S. P. S. C. O. officers and acting as an advisory board in matters of consti- tutionality. During the September se- mester, Herbert Leavitt served as the Speaker of the House. Frank Gustine was elected Vice-Speaker. lean White fulfilled the duties of secretary, while Genevieve Snapp served as parlia- mentarian. The second semester, the General Assembly elected Ray Wal- lace Speaker of the House with Her- bert Leavitt as Vice-Speaker. Evelyn Hoffman was chosen secretary and Bob Lavidge was selected as the authority on parliamentary procedure according to Bobert's Rules and Or- der. ' ' The executive department consists of a president and a vice-president elected by the entire student body, and a cabinet of nine members appointed by the president. The duty of a cabinet member is to carry out any work dele- gated to him by his faculty sponsor, by the president and by the General As- sembly. ' In September, 1937, Angelo Geocaris and Betty Skinner took over the duties of administration during the third se- mester of student government. Because of the efforts of this administration and their remarkably well chosen cabinet, the S. P. S. C. O. accomplished much.

The publicity department, headed by Arnold Kohn, Secretary of Publicity, put over a suc- cessful drive for more Parker news in the daily and local newspapers. In order to keep students informed of the activities of the General Assembly and Cabinet, Arnold edited the S. P. S. C. O. bulletin, Let's Talk, and a column in the Press. ' Under the supervision of Charles Wagenberg, Secretary of Boys' Ath- letics, intra-mural basketball tourna- ments were staged. Eloise Procter, Secretary of Girls' Athletics, aided in the captain-ball and volley-ball tour- naments held in the girls' gymnasium. The big Fenger Pep Rally was also sponsored by this department. The great flurry of social activities during the fall semester was directed by Bev- erly White, Secretary of Social Affairs. The numerous dances which caused such a sensation should bring back a very pleasant recollection of gay times. ' Elmer Melnick took over the position of Secretary of Scholarship. During this semester the foundation for the National Honor Society was laid. Iackie Hart and Alfred Wyatt served this organization by filling the posi- tions of Secretary of Rules and Order and Secretary of Health, Safety, and Sanitation, respectively. Iackie intro- duced the idea of pins by which all hall-guards are now identified, while Alfred began work on the Clean-Up Committee. Dan Ewers, Secretary of Sound, rendered invaluable service in the staging of all events. ' Dorothy Laskey, Secretary of Clubs, arranged club schedules and helped to increase interest in the various groups. The Secretary of Art Interpre- tation, Barbara Houts, aided all de- partments by making favors and pro- grams and taking charge of the bulle- tin boards. Mildred Drake served as Secretary to the Cabinet. ' With the first nominating conven- tions for president and vice-president, the fourth semester of student govern- ment began. Following an amazing publicity campaign, Arthur Hoover and Betty lane Nelson were elected and took office amid the customary in- augural festivities. The Good Will Tours started by Betty Skinner were carried on by Betty lane Nelson. Five representatives from Parker attended a conference at New Trier High School, April first and second. Betty lane, as Secretary of Civic Affairs, acted as of- ficial hostess on Open House Day which was one of the most successful ever held at Parker. ' This administration also selected a cabinet. Ardis Molitor became Secre- tary of Scholarship upon her election to the presidency of the National Hon- or Society. Under her supervision, this society was organized and began to function. Iunellen Leggot, Secretary of Clubs and Class Organization, con- ducted the election for class officers and issued charters to the various clubs. The where and when of money for the Soap and Towel collection was the concern of Hyman Pitt, Secretary of Health, Safety, and Sanitation. Hyman also headed the fire marshals. William Oglesby, Secretary of Sound, took charge of all school equipment. ' Keeping Parker in the news has been the task of Harry Potter, Secre- tary of Publicity. Harry worked in co- operation with the Press in their drive for a better informed citizenry at Par- ker. Students owe their memories of gay times to Mary Lu Price who plan- ned the social affairs of the past semes- ter. Robert Page, Secretary of Ath- letics, aided the athletic department in the selling of tickets for school meets. Ingrid Nelson was appointed Secre- tary to the Cabinet. ' Before this chapter in the history of the S. P. S. C. O. is closed, a word of recognition is due Mr. Robert White, who left Parker at the end of the autumn semester, Miss Hazel Rudoy, and Mr. Iohn McMahon. These faculty members gave invaluable advice as sponsors of the S. P. S. C. O. and de- serve much of the credit for the achievements of this organization. MN,-f' mf 5 s 5' lv!

N orman Pinkert W ' As the February semester of 1938 be- piece of work. These creative projects gan, the students and teachers of Par- ker decided that the school needed an honor organization. Miss Nellie Marie Quinn promoted the establishment of the Parker Chapter No. 1988 of the Na- tional Honor Society. The purpose of this organization is to develop, encour- age, guide, and reward those students who meet the high requirements of character, leadership, scholarship, and service. ' Membership in this organization is r e c o g n i z e d throughout the United States. It is composed of local chapters, each of which is governed by a coun- cil consisting of officers and a faculty advisor. Mr. Daniel O'Conne1l was se- lected by the principal to sponsor the Parker Chapter of the National Honor Society. ' This organization discourages the proverbial bookworm type of educa- tion and emphasizes creative and pro- ductive learning. It is not enough for the student to complete the required assignments: he must also be ready to add something enlightening to the problem on hand. In order to earn an E grade, the student must, under the present marking system, contribute in some special way to the classroom recitation: the mark of superior is re- served for those who do a creative may be Working models of some ma- chine, or an individual research into the problem being studied. Superior students are encouraged to tutor those having difficulty With their academic work. ' Although scholarship is still the basic requirement for membership in this group, doing is stressed as much as learning. To be eligible for mem- bership in Parker's Honor Society, stu- dents must have an E average in their major studies. Other requirements for membership are computed on a point chart. This chart is based upon parti- cipation in extra curricular activities. To retain membership, students must earn the required number of points each semester. At the beginning of the semester, five class secretaries, secured the names and programs of Honor stu- dents in their third and fourth years. These secretaries were Ursula Smith, chairman, Mildred Feldshreiber, Rose- mary Barnes, Betty Tate, and Marion Seidler. ' Bette Iones was elected chairman of the social committee at a later meet- ing. Charles Kill, Bob Lavidge, Mary Reay, and Eleanor Hoffman were chosen as Bette's assistants. The main problem of this committee was making 51 S M vp f Hai . fkigf A . , X ,. x ,fsww f 4 ,Maia 4 F?W' . A at , WPC?

' One of the vital issues confronting a school is the publication of its yearbook, which contains pictures and articles con- cerning every activity of the student body and faculty. ' Without the combined efforts of the Parker Pine staff Working under the di- rection of their advisors, Miss Mary Duckett, editorial, Mr. Robert French, art, and Mr. Daniel O'Connell, business: the Pine would never have been a suc- cess. During the February semester When plans Were first being formulated, Bettie Kleinke was appointed literary editor. June Lindholm became literary editor in February, and under her guid- ance the editorial staff brought their work to a successful completion. ' The responsibility for the extensive art Work, page layouts and typography in this book was laid upon Arnold Kohn, the capable designer of the annual. The many candid camera shots were taken by Robert Shipley and Sandford Hedrick, staff photographers. ' Members of the February editorial staff were Margie Lees, Ruth Allen, Pris- cilla Price, Seymour Plotkin, Mary Louise 1938 Scanlon, Betty Skinner, Florence Dresser, Roberta Hakanson, Eloise Proctor, Effie Hrones, and Robert Neuhaus. ' The Iune editorial staff included Nor- man Pinkert, Charles Wagenberg, Ruth Lidster, Claude Bakas, Norman Graff, Barbara Price, Marvin Himmel, May Lu Price, Grace Anderson, Marion Seidler, Harriette Stokes, Dorothy Schick, Betty Lou Furry, and Arthur Lavidge. Ruth Bacon and Iosephine Wallin Were the typists. ' Doris Daniels was business manager during the first semester. In February, Elmer Melnick and Angelo Geocaris as- sumed these duties. Under their man- agement, a startling publicity campaign was put over which made the entire school Pine conscious . Helen Penhal- legon filled the position of circulation manager Which was vacated by George Burton in February. ' A new idea-that of Big Ten salesmen Was introduced by the Iune Business staff. These ten students Who supervised the division room sales were Charles Wagenberg, Melvin Mayzells, Alfred Stein, Norman Pinkert, Gene Hoover, Marvin Himmel, Donald Manning, Ken- neth Strom, Russell Olson, and Arthur Lavidge. , 1 g ffx K f 4' 9 V V 1 ' ffl' Y VVVX ,, Vf V V 5 -Y fV,'.fV,f,f .

E CLASS OF FEB ' Leadership and service, which are closely related, seem to have been the outstanding characteristics of the class of February, 1938. During the first two years of their high school life, the Student Forum was still functioning. Donald Duffy, Virginia Burrell, Robert Lilien, Bettie Kleinke, and Mary Louise Scanlon represented their class in this organization. When the S. P. S. C. O. replaced the Student Forum, it im- mediately found a staunch supporter in this enthusiastic class. One of the members of the class, Doris Daniels, be- came the first vice-president of the student government. ' Club activities were a part of the leadership program. Mary Louise Scanlon, George Burton, and Roberta Hakan- son served as officers of Le Cercle Francais. The A Capella Choir claimed Lucille Feldin, Frank Reay, Luella Schoen- beck, Edveta Severson, Alice Zemke, Ruth Brooks, and Marion Olson. Marion was also chosen as the Parker Pine Girl of 1937. Robert Lilien and Jackie Dresser took their places as officers of the Social Science club. Daniel How- anitz and Bruce Mitchell put forth their efforts to further the Botkemzo club. The band and orchestra had among its mem- bership Dorothy Olson, Marjorie Lees, Chesley Brile, Walter Ingledew, Russell Kemp, and Edwin French, all from the February '38 class. ' Scholastically, this class rated high during the entire four years. Many of the students were Owls in their first three years and when the National Honor Society was instituted at Parker, they took an active part in the- founding of the Parker chapter. Some of the outstanding scholars of this class were Doris Daniels, Eloise Proctor, Evelyn Hoffman, Mary Louise Scanlon, Priscilla Rice, Roberta Hakanson, and Edward Loucious. ' After three years of earnest work the class of February 1938 prepared for their final year at Parker. Betty Skinner was elected vice-president of the S. P. S. C. O. Eloise Proc- tor, Mildred Drake, Iackie Hart, and Bob Stegner served on the cabinet. ' Many positions were held by these students on the Press staff. Iackie Dresser was editor-in-chief during her 4A semes- ter, while Eloise Proctor, Bettie Kleinke and George Burton all lent their talents to Parker's publication by writing and editing fourth, second, and third pages, respectively. Dan Mullally and Phillip Therrio were staff photographers, while Seymore Plotkin served as exchange editor. Doris Daniels was business manager of the paper. Robert Lilien and Ro- berta Hakanson served as president and vice-president of the Gavel Club. It was also in this semester that Bob Stegner tgvlpn the Safety Poster Contest sponsored by the Automobile ow. , Bill Fleming Mary Louise Scanlon 1.9-sf fzsvf' f' W ' ff' n - ' -. --. -,- M---1--1 -fs - ..,- -. 5 -,Hgh 5,533-g-,,g:'g3,',,-,ig 'f f ,-4 ..Q.Gnrf1q:.3g,vwv-gfywnrwgnxsg-1235 Lasagna -1' W. 1 Mx sr..- aff F R 4 '33 41 M 3 'N' 1 ,E::'3'-+ 3 3'i',',if5..'f?'f'sl.LjJ'i f .'l.2.1274.3-T f ..f'f'3?l -fH'Sie-G1'I'fL'i.m,r:ifi9'ff '9if:2Q3-5'.gislf-Zrljiif.

Robert Wilson, Ray Carpenter, Tom Ellison, Harry Burke, and Robert Broberg starred on the basketball team. Robert Newhaus, Tom Ellison, and Gerald O'Conner brought laurels to Parker from the football field. Gerald O'Connor and Robert Lilien, regulars on the swimming team, and Daral White and Bill Fleming, cheerleaders, complete the list of athletically minded February grads. ' In October the graduates elected as their class officers, Bill Fleming, president 1 Mary Louise Scanlon, vice-president: Margaret Campbell, secretary: and Jack Hatfield, treasurer. These officers, after determining the wishes of the student body, helped to bring the story of the February class of 1938 to a successful but reluctant close.

The Student Forum drew Elmer Melnick, Betty-lane Nelson, Arnold Kohn, Ruth Ienkins, Dorothy Schick, Dorothy Laskey, Harold Stein- hauser, Marion Seidler, and Gizella Szidak. ' In the fall of 1935, a new and extensive form of student government developed. After emerging victoriously from the preliminaries, Elmer Melnick lost to Arnold Hinkens in the final ballot for the presidency. Elmer served on the first cabinet. It was also in this year that Ernest Wilkens, who enrolled with this class, graduated at the age of thirteen. Tom Green, Iune Denton, Eleanor Nickerson, Betty lean Grimes, and Beatrice McMillan were among the musicians who played in the band. ' One of the greatest achievements of this class during their 3A semester was the organization of the Iunior class. Bill Nugent was chosen class president, while Hyman Pitt was selected as treasurer. ' With the election of Angelo Geocaris to the presidency, the Iune class of 1938 took over the main offices in the S. P. S. C. O. during their 4B semester. Serving on Angelo's cab- inet were Dorothy Laskey, Arnold Kohn, Alfred Wyatt, Dan Ewers, Elmer Melnick, Charles Wagenberg, and Barbara Houts. The High Council had as its chairman and vice- chairman two 4Bs, Norman Pinkert and Carl Dahlquist. Genevieve Snapp served as parliamentarian in the General Assembly. During the 4A semester, Ardis Molitor, Hyman Pitt, and Mary Lu Price served on the cabinet. ' Members of this class who served as editors on the Parker Press staff are Iune Lindholm, Grace Anderson, Bernard Casey, Catherine Swisher, Bill Nugent, Harriette Stokes, Iean Bauman, Gene Munin, Clarine Coons, Kathleen Toner, and Aron Kaplan. The business staff of the publication was headed by Helen Penhallegon. The newly organized Na- tional Honor Society elected Ardis Molitor as its first presi- dent with Elmer Melnick, Virginia Johnson, and Norman Pinkert as vice-president, secretary, and treasurer respec- tively. ' This outstanding class naturally had its athletes. During the sophomore and junior years, Bob Weeden and Claude Bakas were members of the junior swimming team. During the last two years, Art Lavidge, Warren Anderson, Alfred Iones, Charles Wagenberg, Dick lohnson, Owen Gill, Don Conroy, Harold Flanzer, lack Sullivan, Robert Knox, and Eugene Peterson dominated the roster of the football and basketball teams. Members of the senior swimming team ward Koch othy Laskey Doris Iean DeWells UN 11, 1938 who splashed for Parker High are Fred Parker, Iohn Bed- ford, Albert Hume, George Dewey, Edward Koch, and Harry .Iohnson. Paxton McMurray, enthusiastic foilsman, served as manager for the fencing team. To Bob Till and Frank Ehrig spring fever means the beginning of the baseball practice. Milo Morrill, George Lutz, and Patrick Collins were the backbone of the wrestling team. The G. A. A. found among its active members Virginia Dow, Marijane Faulkner, and Nora Kellog. ' The graduating class selected Ed Koch, president: Doro- thy Laskey, vice4president: Catherine Swisher, secretary: and Marjorie Suridge, treasurer. ' The class of Iune, 1938, will go down in Parker's history not only as a record breaking class in number, but also as a leader in the fields of scholarship and service. 101 Class Officers Edward Koch, President Dorothy Laskey, Vice-Pres.

Roy's sunny nature and irresistable smile gained him a host of friends during his three years at Parker. In the Press room where he was second page editor he amused the entire staff with his droll caricatures and humorous schemes for stimulating editorials. To the memory of one we will never forget, we dedicate this page. 107 Mary Adler commercial William Aiken general science Billye Allland commercial Lida Lee Allon commercial Doroihy Amundsen commercial Edith Anderson arl JUNE - 38 - JUNE - 38 - JUNE - 38 v JUNE 0 38 - JUNE - 38 - JUNE'38 WA, L .,- , , ,, ,X ,mg e 108 Grace Anderson general science Warren Anderson general science Rudolph Ardelean . general science Clair Arsenauli commercial Josephine Arlingslall - o general science Rulh Bacon commercial JUNE - 38 - JUNE v 38 - JUNE - 38 v JUNE ' 38 - JUNE ' 38 - JUNE 38 Claude Bakas , general s i anew Jfwcflffiw Jane Baker dawg! social science Edward Barauskas general science Waller Barlow general science Rosemary Barnes commercial Myron Baskind general science JUNE - 38 - JUNE - 38 - JUNE - 38 0 JUNE ' 38 - JUNE v 38 - JUNE 38 110 Elaine Bauer ' general language Jean Bauman general language 'John Bedford general science Gwendolyn Bell commercial Eugene Benson general science A ' Lillian Berry commercial JUNE - 38 - JUNE - 38 - JUNE - 38 - JUNE ' 38 ' JUNE - 38 - JUNE 38 L. .

' Under the management.of the fall and spring class officers. the sophomores have made the past year a very outstanding one. The fall ad- ministration included Bill Moore, president: Lu- cille Donovan, vice-president: Mariorie Ann Har- per and Iohn McCauley, co-secretaries of social activities: Mariorie Clinton, secretary of publicity: Iohn Iorgenson and Morris Eppley, co-secretaries of athletics: and Shervin Freed, secretary of schol- arship. The co-secretaries of social affairs planned a very successful dance which they cleverly named The Sophomore Flag Dance in honor of Armistice Day. Miniature American flags designed by Freda Lewis were given as favors. Mid-winter fashion tips were given to Parker students by the fall fashion show. This parade of latest styles set feminine hearts fluttering. ' The Spring semester brought with it the election of Elmer Carlson as president and Geraldine Wember as vice-president of this class. Assisting them was their cabinet composed of Helen Kipes. chairman of social affairs, and Evelyn Grossman, chairman of publicity. The activities of this ad- ministration consisted of an Amateur Contest and an aftemoon dance. ' There are sure to be several in the sophomore class that have a weather eye on the coveted office of President of the S. P. S. C. O.-Iohn Mc- Namara is one of the sophomore boys with politi- cal ambitions. He is now sergeant-at-arms of the General Assembly, and represents his class on SOPHOMORE CLASS OFFICERS the High Council along with Fern Iohnson. Mary Smith, and Mariorie Clinton. ' The orchestra has many devotees from the sophomore class, among whom are Paul Watts, Norman Martain, Carl Lindage, Lois Tentish, Charles Hall, Andrew McVeigh, and Robert Vie- weg. A few of the enthusiastic members of the band are Peter Week, Al Vemon, Iohn Kary, Roy Adlerz, Thomas Maroney, Donald Clark, and Anna Chiappetti. ' Members of this class that have helped to make the Parker Press the popular bi-monthly that it is today are Mariorie Houseman, Lois Lindblad, Barbara Price, Anna Chiappetti. and Harold Him- mel, assistant circulation manager. ' The following girls are hopefully looking forward to being proud possessors of a shiny new GAA letter: Mary Grey Hufft, Marilyn Hutton, lane Mitchell, Minnie Brillis, Geraldine Wember. Irma Ludwig, Bemice Ready, and Evelyn Grossman. ' In the boys' athletic field one finds many sopho- more victories to uncover. Over the waves go the sophomore swimmers. Those students who have made the swimming team are Alex MacKenzie. Robert Stuckey, Myron Snapp, Charles Tidholm. Walter Fasbinder, and the iunior swimming team captain, Morris Eppley, who has completely smashed the city Iunior Backstroke record in the remarkable time of 22:08 seconds. ' Several sophomore lads who will undoubtedly earn their letters on Parker's basketball team are Eugene Withrow, Frank Anostos, Robert Stuckey, and Raymond Schultz who is a reserve this sea- son on the light weight team. One iump ahead of these fellows is Iohnny Iorgenson who was made the regular center on the heavy weight team. iw ' vKMw.25G2E?6-sfssvWlffwWSi re,Lf . 1 f 9, Q ,, I Q1 95 vs 'W .

DALY DARGAN DOERFER FRESHMAN CLASS 'In September, 1937, six hundred freshmen en- tered Parker High School. This was the first group to enroll under the new educational system. These students took advantage of the opportunities offered them and have completed a very success- ful year. ' The freshmen chose as their president a very reliable student, Grace Williams, and as her as- sistant Florence Daniels, vice-president. The sec- ond semester Iohn Denton and Iean Michel, who has been outstanding in her school work as well as in her dancing, were chosen to lead this class. ' Many freshmen have already begun to learn the ins and outs of student government. In this group of young politicians are Iack Groshans, Iames Springer, Nancy Unthank, Mary Ann Dyke, and Iohn Minteer. ' Last semester these students sponsored the Freshman Variety Show. It proved to be one of the fastest moving programs ever presented by a freshman group in Parker. The program featured the mosta of the besta in 1B talent. The fresh- men who participated in the Variety Show were Ruth Rosen, Margarie Severance, Minnie Brillis, Herbert Sullivan, Vicki Tadavick, Roma Miller, Iean Michel, and Marvin Himmel. ' Already the freshmen have distinguished them- FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS selves scholastically. Some of the future candi- dates for membership in the National Honor So- ciety are Ioan McDonald, Claire Brinkerhoff, El- mer Nelson, Betty Fallon, and Iessie Louise Opal. ' The lA class is proud of Darlene White, Ethel Roger, and Mary Ann Tubbs, who are members of Parker's well-known A Capella Choir. The statement. Did you ever see Pete go tweet-tweet- tweet on his piccollo? should be changed to, Did you ever see Frances Stastney play the oboe, or Ruth Mitchell beat the drum, or Wingfield Emlet toot the comet? Others who play in the band or orchestra are William Hughes, Iames Warnes, Iohn Karry, and Dear Tuluse. 1 ' Quite a few of the freshman boys have shown athletic tendencies. Robert Green. Robert Ander- son, Harry Luttrell, Iohn Kellogg, Glenn Roberts, and Bruce Alton will soon become regulars on the fencing team. Robert Fierke, Iames Springer, Den- nis McConnell. lack Toner, Marvin Himmel. and Thorpe Covington have represented the freshman class on the iunior track team all year, while Ro- bert Fierke won his maior letter by placing second in the high iump in the city meet. From the nurn- ber of boys who reported for football and base- ball try-outs at the beginning of the semester, it looks as if many freshmen will be representing Parker on the athletic field in a few semesters.

SENIOR COUNSELORS President ----- Norman Graff Vice-President - - Beverly White Secretary - - ' Every semester, from the beginning of Parker's history, new students have entered our institution of learning eager to make a place for themselves in this compact or- ganization. But, sad to say, these freshmen have found themselves lost in at maze of students, each trying to outdo the other. These same freshmen wandered about the school looking for their classrooms and classmates, and each secretly hoping that the school day would soon be over. ' Never again will the incoming freshmen at Parker be so neglected. Parker hash a ., Y. f M r i 'S .5 y . A . r 2 r ' nf -f . r i, . X xf- Q- A s 'J T2 v YJ w . Y . . ,tv 1. . Q 1 1, -2 T l. ,, , rr. - Margaret Martin new organization named the Senior Coun- selors which sees that a position is made in the society of Parker for every new student. The Senior Counselors assume responsi- bility for the freshmen long before the semester begins. A certain number of in- coming students are assigned to each Senior Counselor. This student then takes it upon himself to write a note of welcome to his freshman charges. When the fresh- men arrive at school a few days before the beginning of the semester they are intro- duced to their Big Brother or Big Sister. Senior Coun ers WW UW After this introduction, the Senior Coun- selor shows them the intricate system of numbering the classrooms and then points out places of importance in Parker, such as the gym, swimming pool, lunchroom, As- sembly Hall, and the Community Room. The freshman has at last found someone who is interested in seeing that his prob- lems are solved and that he gets off to a good start in his academic work. After the first introductions, the Senior Counselor does not forget his responsibility. He con- tinues to keep in contact with the freshmen and arranges meetings so that they can have a friendly chat and straighten out any difficulties. ' Each succeeding year will make tt? Senior Counselors an organizatiorivgiore , Wlhff 1- ' V Y noteworthy in Parker. lt is an organization that will be beneficial to both the seniors and the freshmen. The seniors will value membership because of its significance in the fields of character, leadership, scholar- ship, and service, whereas the freshman will find there is one person in the school who is interested primarily in seeing him succeed. The first impression of the new student is a lasting one, and if the impres- sion is one of a friendly relationship with other students, he is likely to lead a well- rounded, interesting school life. ' To Mrs. Eileen Godfrey, the sponsor of this ogjdnization, goes the sincere appreci- atio f'ti of both the freshmen and seniors. untiring efforts have made lasting lfgends of the upper and lower classmen. , , J September to February Chairman - - Mary Ruth Humphrey Vice-Chairman ---- F rank Heay Secretaries -.-- Mary Wakefield Margaret Martin February to Iune Chairman ----- Ardis Molitar Vice-Chairman' - Mary Ruth Humphrey Secretaries - - Fred CQX Margaret M art1n ' The green robed figures file out onto the stage . . . the conductor stands before them . . . he gives the pitch . . . the hushed silence is then broken . . . voices blend in sweet harmony . . . a rolicking gay tune . . . a weird minor melody . . . then drift into a soothing lullaby. Delightful music fills the hall, Weaving a spell around the enchanted audience. When the last perfect tone has died out, the choristers file out amid en- A CAPPELLA CHCIR thusiastic applause. Another performance of Parker's A Capella Choir has been a great success! ' The A Capella Choir is an ensemble of girls' and boys' voices, first and second so- prano, alto, tenor and bass, which sings Without instrumental accompaniment. The A Capella Choir has been the dream of their skillful and devoted director, Mr. Clyde Matson, for the past few years. Mr. Matson finally organized this highly suc- cessful choir in February, 1938. This group became so popular that he introduced the preparatory choir. Before being admitted to the advanced choir, students must enroll' in the preparatory group. Vacancies in the advanced chorus group are filled by mem- bers of the preparatory. At the present time the advanced A Capella Choir in- cludes sixty voices. ' The services of Mr. Matson's singers are always gratefully accepted. These stu- dents have sung at P.-T. A. meetings and at i l A Capella Officers both the Iune and February graduations. The choir always has a large part on the program of the Spring Musical Festival. ' This year Mr. Matson entered choral groups in the south section A Capella con- test. The choir Was given a superior voting in both the preliminaries and finals. Parker is justly proud of this achievement, as Mr. Matson's choir was the only school in the south section to receive a mark of superior. ' The group sings a variety of music. In the same program there will appear a negro spiritual, fa rather ambitious classical selec- lfttV if J . ' ft A Tv- 1 l',,,f-'-'if 'C . tion, and a Kentucky mountain song. One can read the mood of the song by the pitch of the singers' voices and the expressions on their faces. However, the choir never loses its superior tone quality and distinct enunciation. In the all-city choir which is made up of the outstanding students in the various high school choruses, Parker has eight members. These fortunate students are Margaret Kleinke, Raymond Knighton, Evelyn Hoff, Marie Rheinschmidt, Norma Taylor, Eileen Berkely, Mary Ruth Hum- phrey, Francis Connely, and Helvie Benson. EAWUP QEMMITTEE ' Clean-up, Paint-up, cmd Light-up! That's the motto of the Clean-up Committee this year. With Peggy O'Neil as the efficient chairman and Doris Ieanne De Wells as secretary, the committee of ten members has successfully put over an effective cam- paign. ' The different committee positions were filled by the following students: Carl Dahl- quist, social affairs: William Nugent, audi- torium cleanliness: Claude Bakas, publi- city: Margaret Kleinke, clean-up signs: Elaine Kern, scrapbook: Margaret Schopke, photography: Ruth Hooker, elementary schools: Ken Strom, campus projects and the contacting of outsiders. Notices Were put in classrooms assigning every room the responsibility of keeping a certain section of the hall clean for one week. ' The committee is under the sponsorship of the Health, Safety and Sanitation de- partment of the S. P. S. C. O. and Miss Ruth Strahan, faculty advisor. ' The committee sponsored a clean-up pep rally boosting the spirit of clean-up among the schools on the the campus. To raise money for more photographs, the group put on a Talent Show. A ' The assembly proved to be one of the most outstanding of the semester. Featured on the program were Snow White, one dwarf and two rabbits, Shirley Temple. Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy, Iohn Charles Thomas, Charlie Chaplin, lane Withers, Ieanette McDonald, and Eleanor Powell. These famous persons were imper- sonated, of course. Carl Dahlquist an- nounced, as the program was in the form of a radio broadcast, while Allen Nedry acted as master of ceremonies. The ap- propriate Whistle While You Work was the theme song of the broadcast. ' Each year Parker enters a scrapbook contest which is promoted by the Associa- tion of Commerce. The compiling of this book was supervised by the art department and Miss Edna Hippchen. This book is a march of events in the clean-up campaign Committee Heads with pictures and write-ups of the various projects. ' Each member of the Clean-up Committee has a small squad under his jurisdiction. The lunchroom squadron cleaned up the cafeteria and posted signs to remind the students to keep it clean, while the gram- mar school squad went to the different schools and helped them conduct their clean-up programs. These students also gave a tea for the grammar school spon- sors. ' Increased tidiness on the part of the stu- dents and an improvement in the appear- ance of the school was the result achieved by the combined efforts of the committee with the support and cooperation of all the school departments, the P.-T. A., and the Englewood Business Men's Association. G D CLUB President - - - Angelo Geocaris Vice-President - - Norman Pinkert Secretary - - - Iudy Kerman ' Oh, for a candid camera, when the de- bating club goes into action! The club meets Tuesdays and Thursdays in 214, the ninth period, under the sponsorship of Mr. Edward Punke. This year the debating club was divided into two teams, one, the affirmative, and the other the negative. The affirmative was composed of Arnold Kohn and Angelo Geocaris, while Norman Graff and Arthur Hoover made up the negative team. ' The two teams were enrolled as one of the Big Twelve members. Various high schools that have entered teams belong to the Big Twelve unit. The topic for debate this year was: Resolved, That the several states should adopt the unicameral system of legislation. ' Fenger's debating team came to Parker and was defeated by our affirmative team. Parker's negative team then Went to Fen- ger only to be defeated by their affirmative team. The next clash came when Parker's affirmative team emerged victorious from' a debate at Lane. George Rogers Clarke High School team then defeated Angelo and Arnold in a spirited contest. At Mor- gan Park our negative team suffered their second defeat, but the affirmative team avenged this loss by Winning. After the heat of those debates, Morton High came to Parker Where they smashed our affirm- ative's argument. ' The activities of the club itself,through- out the semester, include many debates and discussions on international, national, local, and school topics. ' The first debate of the new school year dealt with the boycotting of Iapanese goods in American markets. With William DEBATING CLUB Minnella and Melvin Mayzels leading the opposing forces, a very closely contested debate resulted with the negative, led by William, emerging victorious. The second debate topic suggested by the co-chair- men of the 'program committee, Marilyn Milbourne and Iosephine May, pertained to the short ballot as an advantageous means of political reform. Sheldon Dray and Mildred Felschreiber, arguing against the adoption, received a close decision over the affirmative team. The adoption of the city manager type of municipal gov- ernment for Chicago was the third topic of discussion. ' The most heated debate of the entire semester dealt with certain bills before the S. P. S. C. O. in Parker. Those defending the government were Ieanette Plotkin and Felix Lubin. Their opponents were Mary Reay and Norman Pinkert. After a closely contested debate, Ieanette and Felix were declared the victors. BQTKEMZC CLUB September to February President ----- Dan Howanitz Vice-President - - - lVlirium Schooley Secretary ---- Shirley Sterling February to Iune President ---- William Sewell Vice-President ---- Harriet Kahn Secretary ---- Shirley Sterling ' Scientific minded students have formed an organization of which Parker may Well be proud. The activities of the Botkemzo Club include the preparation ot exhibits for the Illinois Iunior Academy of Science competition which is held some time in May, the maintenance of the Botkemzo Museum, and the publication of the club magazine. ' Each year the club sends representatives to the Illinois Iunior Academy of Science Where the Botkemzo Club competes with t other high schools of Illinois for the best exhibits. The other science clubs also con- tribute exhibits for the contest. The Bot- kemzo Club won the all around loving cup, and three first prizes! Mirium Schooley was chairman of the exhibits. This year Par- ker's display included a diarama of an al- chemy laboratory. In the laboratory were small experimental tables, an old coke heater, and glass experiment equipment. Students who worked on this project are Harriet Kahn, William Sewell, and Homer Rickey. The Astronomy Club contributed a hand made spectroscope, and a revolving model of the solar system which was made by Phyllis Chiapetti, Shirley Wilkenson, and Ruth Ienkins. A miniature model of a blast furnace has been contributed by the Daltonian Club. A collection of the different chemical oxides was made by Dorothy johnson, and a beautiful botany notebook was donated by Mirium Schooley. A col- lection of different specimens of marble was exhibited by Dorothy Bell, While a dis- BOTKEMZO CLUB play of marzipons, which are cookies in the shape of colored fruits and vegetables, was made by Harriet Kahn. ' The Botkemzo Museum, containing excel- lent exhibits on astronomy, botany, zoolo- gy, physics, chemistry, and geology, is un- der the direction of Dorothy Iohnson. Among other interesting specimens is a long tank in which crayfish, snails, and turtles do a little swimming, and occasion- ally rest upon rocks for your inspection. If you feel something crawling beneath your feet, it is probably a lizard which has es- caped from captivity. ' During the regular meetings of the Bot- kemzo Club, which gathers Weekly under the sponsorship of Miss Iessie Potter, stu- dents talk on subjects pertaining to sci- ence. For instance, one entire meeting was devoted to the discussion of marijuana. This year the club has published the sec- ond issue of the Botkemzo Courier which is edited by Elizabeth Dyer. the pan american club September to Iune President ---- Betty Whinnery Vice-President - - Iosephine Wallin Secretary - - - - - Iohn Pine Treasurer - - Albert Helstern ' Midway in the fall semester a group of Spanish students, under the direction of Miss Anna Grill, joined the Pan-American League which draws its membership from twenty-five schools in the Chicago area. The purpose of this organization is to en- courage the friendly relations existing be- tween the United States and the countries of North and Central America. Its inten- tions are to ally more intimately the inter- ests of the men, women, and children of the Americas. ' The club at Parker is one of twenty-five in the city league, of which a student from Austin High School is now the head. Phyl- lis Chiappetti was Parker's delegate. ' The social program of this club, as well as the educational program, has been un- der the direction of Peggy O'Neil, chair- man. The programs of the regular meet- ings included student speakers and Span- ish games. These would-be Senoritas and Senors also lustily sang many Span- ish songs at their meetings. ' The main social function of the year was the Pan-American League Prom which was held at the Great Northern Hotel. The event was planned and sponsored by the United Leagues of Chicago. The bids for the affair were sold at Parker by Leonard Abrams. ' This club's plans for the Gpen House Day craft sale were quite unique. They featured a Mexican market. Some of the wares they sold were baskets, pocketbooks, knitting bags, head-bands, and napkins embroid- ered with a Spanish design. ' The advantages of the organization of Spanish clubs in the Pan-American league are the distinction of being affiliated with a movement which is as wide as the west- ern hemisphere, and the privilege of wear- ing the official pin. The pin shows the maps of North America and South Amer- ica, surrounded by a chain of twenty-one links symbolizing the twenty-one countries in the western hemisphere. 228 as...--..5,..

Le Cercle Francais has just completed another suc- cessful year. The purpose of this organiza- tion is to give the students a better under- standing of the French language and give them the necessary practice required to speak French fluently. ' Only French is spoken during the meet- ings of Le Cercle Francais. This club has had the privilege of entertaining several interesting speakers. One program that the members especially enjoyed was a talk by Mr. Arvid Anderson on his experiences in France during the World War. At one of the meetings Miss Edna Dunlap, sponsor, showed slides of some of the scenery of France. A play, Secour des Collines, was written and presented by Dorothy Laskey, Catherine Swisher, and Doris Walgren. Another play, L'Illustre Dupinchel, was enacted by Dorothy Bowen, Dorothea Vau- pel, and Iean Baldwin. ' As one of its outside activities, the club visited the International House at the Uni- versity of Chicago and saw there the French film Les Miserables . , l.-l -1 , l UNIOR FRENCH CLUB September to February President ------ Bette Iones Vice-President ---- Lucie Empie Secretary ---- Georgette Adras February to Iune President ----- Betty Carlsten Vice-President ---- Fern I ohnson Secretary ---- Howard Reynolds ' The roll call, minutes of the meetings, and other business of the Iunior French Club is conducted in as much French as the members can understand. This group , 229 of beginning French students is sponsored by Mrs. Lucille Lloyd, for the purpose of furthering interest in the customs and lan- guage of the French peoples. ' Activities similar to the senior group are carried on by the juniors in addition to work on a progress book for the purpose of learning a practical vocabulary to provide variety for the weekly program. These French enthusiasts even made their own games such as a French version of Lotto and Crossword Lexicon . The members often go in groups to see French movies and plays. gand white squadron f ,MWQ lx .xii fl.fwS,.MW41L3'q I f 'C'-9 M President - - - - William Loftus if v xlf Vice-President - - - Lorraine K eipes Secretary - - - Mildred Feldschreiber ' Tickets, please! Keep your stubs! Move quickly! Have you ever thought of the stu- dents Who have helped to make your en- tertainment more enjoyable? They are none other than the ever dependable Green and White Squadron, under the sponsorship of Mr. Earl Leeney. ' If you happen to come in late for a movie you will be courteously guided to a seat by an usher dressed in the traditional green and White blazing the Way with a flashlight. While you are secretly admir- ing the dramatic ability of Walter Huston, the beautiful voice of Ieanette McDonald, or the comical antics of Charlie McCarthy, the Green and White are guarding the doors of the assembly so that no'person Will interrupt the performance. ' Those members of the squadron who have rendered such service have been awarded a large P on Which, is printed Green and White Squadron. In order for a student to secure membership in the squadron, he must have an average of and be recognized as a responsible student. ' Some of the movies at which this group has ushered are the history movie, Drink- Water's celebrated biography of Abraham Lincoln : the English movie, Quality Street by Sir Iames Barrie: and the com- mercial movie, Annapolis Salute . They also offered their services at the gala In- augural Ba1l , held in honor of the new offi- cers. One of the main factors in the suc- cess of The Tip Off and the P.-T. A. Dance was the one hundred per cent cooperation of the Green and White. 230 ' Three semesters ago, a young man walk- ed into the Parker High School building, intent on teaching the students of Parker the fundamentals of amateur radio oper- ating. After several weeks, the man dis- covered there would be no salary for his services. He hurriedly departed leaving the radio bug imbedded in each of his pu- pils. The boys were very enthusiastic and very hard to discourage. They were deter- mined to get amateur operator licenses, but had 'no spare time or place during school hours in which to work. So, a Vacant flat was rented. These industrious lads awoke at six o'clock every morning to work in their empty room. With a spirit like this, they could not help succeeding. ' The idea for the organization of the Radio Club was conceived by Walter Se- love, one of the spirited fellows who worked in the empty flat. They interested Mr. George Robinson who became sponsor. Since the club was first organized, several 231 radio club amateurs have been successful in passing the government tests and in securing call letters. These students are Carl lohnson- WQTYH, Erling Rrederickson-UIB, Bill Shaw-UIG, and Howard Ienson-WXE. As members of the club grew more profes- sional, they built both a transmitter and a receiving set and earned an amateur radio license to operate Station WSYXE. By broadcasting over this station, club members can contact fellow amateurs throughout the United States. The boys feel that they are getting practical ex- perience in a growing field. Members of this club also operate the amplifying sys- tem in the auditorium. ' Walter Selove has served as president for the past year. He is the only member having a license of his own. Parker should be proud of this club as there are only two other high schools in the city that can boast such an organization in which radio minded students can exercise their ideas. The only requirement for membership in the club is an interest in the radio field. g1rl s glee club President - - - - Mary Gunn Vice-President - - Mary Gray Hoft Secretary ---- Evelyn Grossman Assistant Secretary ' One of the organizations which draws its membership from among the music lovers of the school is the Girls' Glee Club. From the rapidity with which this group has grown it would seem that there is still a great number of students who appreciate the lighter classics. This group, organized by Mrs. Agnes Hawkinson just two semes- ters ago, now includes sixty very enthusi- astic members. ' Luigi Arditi's famous Il Bacio is one of the beautiful numbers sung by the chorus. Old English folk songs also appeal to these youthful singers. Practically all of the music for the chorus is written in three parts as this arrangement seems best suited to their voices. The chorus is not composed of soloists, but merely of students who love to sing and are willing to be taught the cor- rect methods. ' Through the daily rehearsals, these girls receive vocal training from their talented director, Mrs. Hawkinson. Nuance in tone Mary lean Powers is one of the objectives especially stressed by their leader. ' Because it has been so recently organ- ized, the Glee Club has not as yet entered any contests. However, these singers have proved themselves indispensable at Par- ker. They furnished all of the carols for the Christmas play, Hue and Cry . They also sang for the Senior Counselors and fresh- men on the day that the latter first entered Parker. On this program they featured a double sextet. After their beautiful per- formance at the Spring Music Festivals we feel that these programs would not be com- plete without numbers by the Girls' Glee Club. Various department assemblies also included these singers on their programs. ' Every glee club needs an efficient pian- ist. This position was filled by Doris Jones, and Minnie Brillis, assistant pianist. Care of music was intrusted to Marie Sink, Iean Kite, Gladys Markland, and Esther Sonn, librarians. . 232 September to February President ----- Marion Seidler Vice-President - - - Dorothy Iohnson Secretary ------ Hyman Pitt February to Iune President ---- Meyer Rothstein Vice-President - - - Iosephine May Secretary - - I - Robert Shipley ' Acid, base, or salt? This is one of the many problems that faces the beginning chemist. However, the mysteries gradually unfold as his knowledge of chemistry ad- vances. Those who desire to further their understanding of this science would be interested in the Daltonian Club. Named after Dalton, the famous chemist, the re- cently organized club has grown into an active organization because of the efforts of Mr. Iohn Coulson. 'For the advantage of the would-be chemists, the club holds informal meetings in the chemistry laboratory where ques- tions arising in every-day life are answered through experiments. The chemistry club has made it possible for students who are deficient in their work to be helped by a student tutor. ' During the regular meetings which are 233 daltonian club held' bi-monthly, movies, demonstrations, and talks pertaining the the field of chem- istry, are given. Two of Parker's alumni, Harry Bigelow and Irving Iohnson, spoke to the club concerning chemistry in college. ' The Program committee of the Daltonian Club, headed by Betty Tate and including Iosephine Dominici, lack Hoffencamp, and Kathleen Toner, arranged the programs for the various meetings. The Project com- mittee under the direction of Norman Pin- kert consisted of Iay Hundley, Charles Kill, Dorothy Schick, and Hyman Pitt. Working on the chemistry exhibits for the Iunior Academy of Science contest kept these students busy. ' The Open House committee was divided into two groups. The group that worked on articles for the sale were Betty lane Liszt, Iosephine Artingstall, Iune Denton, Marion Seidler, Ruth Jenkins, and Miriam Simon, with Josephine May and Ruth Stammer- john as co-chairmen. Another group, di- rected by Harriet Kahn and composed of Mary Lu Price and Iune Lindholm, made candy for the sale. ' Walter Selove, as chairman of the Demonstration committee, had as his assist- ants Marion Seidler, Fred Parker, Hyman Pitt, and Frank Iavor. Aron Kaplan was publicity chairman for the club. german club President - - - - Gloria Knecht Vice-President - - Charles Wagenberg Secretary - - - Marybeth Gosswein ' Kannst Du Deutsch sprechen? If so, you would feel right at home among the group of German students who attend the meet- ings of Der Deutsche Verein , or in other words, the German Club. Under the spon- sorship of Miss Millicent Stebbins, the club affords its members an opportunity to speak the German language informally among themselves. This is an advantage which is not always present in the routine of the classroom. Since the aim of the club is to make German a part of the student's everyday life, only German must be spoken during the meetings, and thus the members apply what they have learned in a more practical Way. . ' The second aim of this organization is to provide a period of relaxation and whole- some fun for the members. This is accom- plished by singing German songs and by playing such games as unscrambling Ger- man Words, sentences, and authors. Play- ing the ever popular game of lotto is an- other favorite pastime of the German Club. The members in this Way also acquire some of the culture of the people Whose language they are endeavoring to master. ' The president of the German Club, Gloria Knecht, took movies While on her trip to Germany. The members of the club received much enjoyment from them and were eager to see these movies a second time. Some very interesting talks have been given by the club members and by faculty members who have visited Ger- many. Burton Holmes' lecture on Germany, which was given at Orchestra Hall, proved to be a source of real enjoyment to the stu- dents. The club has also received much pleasure from German movies which have been shown at various places. The most recent one seen by the club was Emil und die Detektive , Which was given crt the ln- ternational House at the University of Chi- cago. A real German picnic was planned for the main event of the semester. The lunch included rye bread, pretzels, and potato salad. 234 September to February President ------ Bob Lilen Vice-President - - Dean Stanley Secretary ---- Florence Dresser February to Iune President ----- Erwin Stamp Vice-President - - Iune Lindholm Secretary ---- Eleanor Nickerson ' This swiftly moving period in which we live has developed many new political and social theories. The Social Science Club, therefore, has endeavored to turn the eyes of Parker students toward national and in- ternational affairs. Guest speakers were invited to address the club on present day happenings. When no speakers were available Beatrice Mac Millan and lean- ette Sharelis arranged open forums on cur- rent topics. Upon the request of the club members, Beatrice secured a speaker, Dr. Charles Verity from the Young Men's Christian Association, to talk about the co- operative system now used in the Scandi- navian countries. Members of the Social Science club are also interested in the problems of their own country. Mr. Edward Punke, one of the faculty members, ad- dressed the club on the causes and effects of erosion. Following Mr. Punke's talk there 235 Hr,-f. 1 f ---1 X- social science club was an informal discussion on preventive measures. The thoughts of these progres- sive students have also turned toward our own government's problems. An entire meeting was devoted to a discussion of the points in favor and those against the city manager plan. The group also considered the possibilities of such a government in Chicago. ' One of the main events of the semester was the sponsoring of an assembly mod- eled after the conference of the Interna- tional Labor Organization held at Geneva, Switzerland. The assembly included four delegates, two representing government, one labor, and one capital, fromeach of the 62 member nations. One of the prob- lems discussed at Geneva, namely the forty-hour a week plan, was taken up in the assembly. The international relations classes furnished speakers for the occa- sion. Grace Anderson, one of the delegates from France, seconded, in French, Russell Waybright's nomination to the presidency of the convention. Iunellen Leggot ad- dressed the group in Spanish, while Bea- trice MacMillan spoke in German. ' This organization was sponsored by Miss Ruth McNally the first semester, and by Miss Eleanor Bisbee during the past semes- ter. euclidean club President - - Vice-President - Secretary - - ' Named in honor of Euclid, the famed Greek mathematician, the Euclidean Club was organized for the purpose of inter- esting students in mathematics. Mr. Iohn Hibler has been the sponsor of this club since it started to function in November, l936. Almost every object that is used for everyday purposes is based on some math- ematical principle, and without mathema- tics the world could not progress. The club endeavors to show its members the prac- tical applications of this science in respect to ordinary occurrences. ' Various prominent speakers have been obtained by the club to give addresses and illustrated talks at both regular meetings and special assemblies. Although a defin- ite meeting time has been scheduled, the club has found it more convenient to hold meetings during periods when the speak- ers are available. Some of these guest speakers were Max Holt, principal of the Fiske School: Professors Penn, Spensor, - William Vollmer Harold Steinhauser - Marion Seidler Lease, and Krathwohl from the Armour Institute of Technology: and Dr. Georges of the Wilson Iunior College. These men stressed the fact that mathematics, while it is helpful to many students in their later life, is beneficial for developing an acute sense of reasoning. The club members were very interested in the fact that there are short cuts in solving problems, even in the ones that seem most difficult. These speakers also showed that there is magic in mathematics which, When understood, makes the subject increasingly interesting. ' The main achievements of the Euclidean Club is the establishment of the mathema- tical laboratory where students taking be- ginning or advanced algebra, plane or solid geometry, and trigonometry may go during their study periods either to tutor students who are behind in their work or to be tutored themselves. The laboratory con- tains charts, diagrams, drawings, and working models of subjects relative to mathematics. 236 . ,,m?22,figYiw3vrfQ'2?w S fefgfw if?

In order to secure first-hand information concerning methods of procedure, this group made several trips to Iudge Rooney's District Court. Iudge lVlcGeary of the South Chicago Dis- trict Court spoke at one of the meetings. ' The officers of this organization for the past semester were Anson Longaker, presi- dent: Betty Lou Furry, vice-president, Helen Harsh, secretary: and Raymond O'Connell, treasurer. COMMERCIAL CLUB ' About two semesters ago, students who were interested in becoming future typists, and salesmen, and accountants banded to- gether and formed the Commercial Club. The purpose of this organization is to stim- ulate interest in the methods of the modern business World. This is accomplished through speakers, demonstrations, assem- blies, tours, movies, and plays.

Will someone please write a lead for me? Who took my page plan? May I have the paste? ' These phrases and many others are heard in 320, the Parker Press room, where dead-line day incites terror into the minds of the page editors and reporters alike. Members of the Press staff toil daily to issue in their own inimitable style a bi- weekly whose chief aim is to inform the student body about school activities. All writers on the editorial staff must have completed at least one semester of iournalism. The Parker Press received a grade of excellent in the 1937 spring iudging of the National Press Association. ' During the fall semester. editorship of the paper was entrusted to Florence Dresser and Iune Lind- holm, while Grace Anderson and Bernard Casey were co-editors-in-chief during the spring semester. ' All news on the first page was under the super- vision of Grace Anderson and Aron Kaplan from September to February, while Clarine Coons and Gene Munin took charge of this page from Febru- ary to Iune. ' Page two, which contains features, iokes. edi- torials, and articles written by 'members of the faculty. was edited by Betty Klienke and Roy Smith in the first months of the fall term. However, Betty resigned in favor of the appointment of Feb- ruary editor-in-chief of the Pine. In that same month, October. came the sudden death of Roy 242 Smith, leaving another vacancy on the second page. Harriette Stokes and Gene Munin filled these places. For the spring term Harriette retained her position and William Nugent was selected as her co-worker. ' Clarine Coons and George Burton edited page three, containing club news, student interviews. and feature material, the first semester. while Mar- garet Iohnson and Claude Bakas were the editors during the second semester. ' All news concerning athletics was edited by Catherine Swisher and Bemard Casey the first half of the school year. and by lean Bauman and Andy McCarnbridge the last half. ' Miss Amy Mackie, who was the capable spon- sor of the editorial staff for seven semesters, served until February when her duties were assumed by Mrs. Helen Brown. ' Without an efficient business staff there would be no publication. Helen Penhallegon headed this department until she was succeeded by Robert Kopp. Advertising soliciting was done by Robert until February when Fay Mezilson took up his work. The circulation of the paper has been super- vised by Barbara Houts. Mary Reay, Mariorie Lauritzen, and Harold l'limmel. ' These serious students of iournalism also have their gayer moments when their minds turn toward things social. A party in honor of Miss Mackie and a picnic during spring vacation were the main events on their social calendar.

A football game wouldn't be complete without our band to lend color and enthusiasm to the occasion. ' However, that is not all that this organization, numbering two hundred and consisting of begin- ners, intermediate, and advanced players, ac- complishes. The advanced band played at as- semblies and P.-T. A. programs, while the concert band sponsored a dance in honor of the basket- ball players, March 16. This gala event, called the Tip-Off, was given on P.-T. A. night to raise more money for instruments. Another outstanding affair presented by the band was the Music Festi- val which was held on April 21. Gladys Mosier, an expert piano-accordionist, was one of the solo attractions. ' On April 13, the band entered the Chicago pub- lic high school band contest. Last year, Parker's band came home with a shield signifying that the Green and White had won second place in the citywide contest. This year, in the ensemble con- test, Parker entered a clarinet quartet. These four members were Thomas Green, Iosephine Arting- stall, Ruth Beiser, and Harold Steinhauser. Iohn Cress received a superior rating in the trombone solo contest on March 12, making himself eligible for the national contest in Elkhart, Indiana in O CONCERT ORCHESTRA President ------- Gail Fowler Vice-President ----- Rudy Ardelean Secretary - - - George Hoehne Treasurer ------- Ethel Wood ' The Concert Orchestra includes thirt three mu Y- . sicians. This group has played at assemblies, P.- T. A. programs, and graduations. The orchestra also participated in the Music Festival, April 21, and in several concerts at Hamilton Park. ' Several members of the orchestra compose the assembly orchestra. This group provides music for assemblies and dances or any occasion that requires a small concert or, popular organization. Gail Fowler is the student conductor in charge of the concert unit and Jeanette Rombach is in charge of the dance phase of the work. A string ensemble from this group often provides im- promptu music for P.-T. A. meetings. Before the Christmas holidays, groups of the assembly or- chestra who were filled with yuletide spirit, wan- May. Last year, Iohn won third prize in the na- tional contest held at Columbus, Ohio. Iohn Kel- log received a mark of excellent in the flute solo contest held at Tilden High School.

Parker is represented by nine people in this organization. They are Arthur Specker, Iohn Cress, Margaret Cress, Clarence Ellingham, lean- ette Romback, Charles Peterson, Gilbert Wetzel, Kannetka Opel, and Eugene Titterington. ' The dance band, which plays at the various dances and some assemblies, consists of ten mem- bers of the concert band. This group should re- ceive much credit for making our night dances and afternoon hops possible. ' The band was started and sponsored by Mr. lack Rapier until his departure in March, and is now directed by Mrs. Mae Murphy. dered through the halls playing Christmas carols to entertain students in their classes.

' Let us reminisce. Beverly White was appointed Secretary of Social Activities by Angelo Geocaris in the fall of 1937. Under her direction the Inaugur- al Dance took place on an October afternoon with programs made of rectangular slips of green paper. The Freshman Colonial Dance was fol- lowed quickly by the Sophomore Flag Dance on Armistice Day. Small American flags were the favors. Then suddenly came the P.-T. A. night, and as a result of Beverly's idea, Parker students danced while their parents had a meeting in the auditorium. Needless to say, the idea of a night O dance met with such popularity that Bev was asked to plan another. ' The Huddle was held in honor of our football team which had won the right to play for the sec- tion championship. School spirit ran high. A movie was shown, followed by a pep session at which the team was introduced. A dance corn- pleted the round of entertainment. The Iam-Boree, celebrating the old American custom of Thanks- giving, featured the movie, Top Hat and a dance afterwards. The Iam-Boree program was in the fonn of a turkey leg. ' One Iunior Prom bid was the admission fee to the Iunior Iigg, which proved to be another suc- cessful event. Quickly following came the Iunior Prom which was the last evening dance of the semester. As a grand finale to the year's social events, Bev introduced the Senior Swing, which was cz double feature program, a basketball game between the football and basketball teams, fol- lowed by a dance. Upon entering, Seniors were given green and white graduate's caps as favors, which were worn with pleasure by-the graduates. The Senior Prom, which was as usual an exclus- ively senior affair, was held in the Crystal Ball- room of the Del Prado Hotel. Thus ended the fall semester with a school-wide interest in all things social. ' The spring semester made its appearance with an evening dance, the Inaugural Ball. As St. Val- entine's Day was swiftly approaching, the newly appointed Secretary of Social Activities, Mary Lu Price, selected for dance programs, Barbara Mills' design of a charm bracelet made of red paper hearts. The next red letter day in Parker's social calendar was the P.-T. A. night, which combined a lecture by Iudge Braude in the auditorium, and a dance in the gym, given in honor of the basketball teams. The teams were presented their letters by Coach Edward O'Farrel1, mak- ing the accompanying dance a true celebra- tion. The name of the event was the Tip-Off, and the dance programs were green paper minia- ture basketballs. The Spring Festival took place nearly a month after the Tip-Off and received the admiration of an appreciative audience. ' The Iunior Prom made its first annual appear- ance with its customary applause. The day on which Parker played host to her many friends and patrons, Open House Day, was filled with numer- ous attractions. By this time the semester was drawing to a close and in the quickly passing days many special events took place. The G. A. A. May Dance and the Freshman, Sophomore, Iunior, and Senior dances faded swiftly into indis- tinct memories. The Senior Prom of the Iune class '38, intriguing everyone with its perfection, ended a truly and thoroughly enioyable year of social activities.

For many years Mr. Wasserman coached all of Parker's teams. He received his biggest thrill as a coach when Par- ker's football team of 1935 beat Schurz in the semi-finals. Coach Wasserman spends the sum- mer at his boys' camp in northern Wisconsin. COACH ANDREW HOLMES ' Mr. Andrew Holmes was born in Chicago at the turn of the century. While attending Parker Ele- mentary and Senior High Schools, he won ten let- ters, competing in baseball, football, and track. After graduation he enrolled at the University of Illinois in the College of Physical Education. Com- ing to Parker in 1930 as baseball and swimming coach, he has established an outstanding record in the past eight years. COACH EDWARD O'FARRELL ' Although Mr. Edward O'Farrell never realized his ambition of becoming a second Babe Ruth, he has coached many outstanding basketball teams since he began to teach at Parker in November, 1935. Notable among these teams was the 1938 cage squad which captured the Stagg Tourna- ment Championship. Coach O'Farrell spent his high school days at De La Salle, where he was All-City Forward on the basketball team. After- wards he attended De Paul University and Nor- mal College. COACH PAUL SPADE ' Since coming to Parker in October, 1937, Mr. Paul Spade has won the respect and friendship of the entire faculty and student body. He has or- ganized the wrestling team and coached the track, fencing, boxing, and gymnastic teams. During his high school days, Mr. Spade partici- pated in many sports, especially in football, bas- ketball, fencing, and wrestling. Among the schools which he attended are the University of Chicago, The American College of Physical Edu- cation, and the Normal College. While in the army, Coach Spade won the Heavy Weight Wrestling Championship of the Seventh Division. 5 S 5 i sis 3 ig RZ Ee S rf 2 E ii 23 as 5 E 53? 3 E . .V , - . - - .

L, ' When the call for candidates for the football team was made the first week of school, about fifty boys signified their in- tention of trying for the team. By the second week the squad was in full swing and looking forward to their initial game against Hirsch. Five major letter winners of the 36 team, three minor winners, and three newcomers made up the first eleven. They were as follows: Co-Captain Bob Kircher - - L. E. Warren Anderson - - - L. T. Gerald O'Connor - - - L. G. Bob Neuhaus - - - C. Co-Captain Sid Gold - - R. G. Dave Sinclair - - - - B. T. Bob Page - - - - R. E. Frank Grabo - - Q. B. Art Lavidge - - L. H. Tom Ellison - - - - - R. H. Warren Morre ------ F. B. Other players who also won letters are lim Havern, end: Bill Zulke, tackle: Bill Galunis and Manuel Smironatis, guards: George Lutz, center: Art Moynihan, Q. B.: Tom Roche and Chuck Warren H. B.: and Bill Murphy, F. B. This wealth of material, under the efficient coaching of Coach Nathan Wasserman, was devel- oped into one of the most successful teams to represent Parker on the grid- iron. Parker 6 - Hirsch U ' Playing a much heavier team, our boys played a fast, smart game. The punting and defense play of Capt. Kircher was instrumental to the end. Not until the fourth period were we able to score. The lone tally came when Tommy Ellison plunged through guard, cut to his left and, behind some perfect blocking, ran 31 yards to Hirsch's goal line. By the stra- tegic use of plays and superb teamwork, our eleven was cited as one of the clever- est in the city by several newspapers. Parker 7 - Bowen U ' In the second contest of the year, Bow- en fell before the Green and White wave. However, our boys played more like machines than the inspired team of a week before. Parker's score was made in the second quarter on a forward pass to Kircher, who ran twenty yards for a touchdown. Moore kicked the extra point. Parker 7 - Calumet 0 ' Once again one touchdown proved to be the winning points. Shortly before the end of the first half Lavidge's passes to Grabo and Kircher put the ball on Calu- met's fifteen yard line. On the next play, Art turned left end for the score. ln the final period Calumet fought back and twice penetrated to our five yard line.

Parker I4 - Hammond Central 7 ' In a non-league game Parker traveled to Hammond and turned back the home boys 14 to 7. The Hammond eleven proved to be good competition and kept our team in practice. Parker 14 -- Morgan Park O ' One more win was chalked up for the Green and White when Morgan A ark came to our field. The game was c oser than the score might indicate. Morgan Park had a very fast backfield and sev- eral times threatened Parker's goal, mak- ing several fine end runs and forward passes. Touchdowns by Kircher and Warren, and extra points by Moore gave Parker 14 points. A spectacular game was played by Neuhaus, who had his nose broken in the contest. Parker 13 - Harper 12 ' With a team weakened by overconfi- dejnce, as the game proved, Parker nosed out la victory over Harper by the ability to kick an extra point.

A recovered fumble deep in Har- per's territory was soon converted into 7 points and later in the same quarter Lavidge intercepted a Harper pass and ran 50 yards for a touchdown. Harper came back with new power and led by Maclnnis, their fullback, scored two touchdowns before the game ended. O'Connor and Gold played exception- ally well. Parker 7 -- Fenger 20 ' In one of the hardest and most exciting games of the year, Parker encountered its first defeat in the tilt for the South Sec- tion Championship, the Fenger eleven winning 20 to 7. By sheer power Fenger managed to put over three touchdowns in the first half. ln the second half Parker came back and held the much stronger Fenger eleven scoreless while making a touchdown of their own. Ellison went over from the one yard line where suc- cessful passes had placed the ball. An outstanding defensive game was played by Frank Grabo who repeatedly came game was played at night before a crowd of 10,000 spectators. The Indian eleven scored twice in the first half on passes and once in the last half by rush- ing. Parker's tally was made by Lavidge in the last quarter. Despite the fact that Muskogee had a decidedly large weight advantage the play was close. An inter- esting feature of the game was the punt- ing duel between Kircher and Iacobs, Indian halfback. Parker 0 - Alumni 0 ' The first annual Thanksgiving Day Varsity vs. Alumni football game resulted in a tie, 0 to 0. The Alumni, led by such former Parker greats as Booie Sny- der, Stan Staluski, Bugs Mahoney, Ralph Hersey, and Bill Fowler, battled the Varsity on even terms. This was the final game of the year and climaxed a very successful season for our gridiron warriors. - up from safety to make a tackle. Parker 6 - Muskogee 19 ' For the first time in the history of Par- ker High School athletics, a football game was played with an Oklahoma team. As a result of brilliant play in pre- vious games, our Green and White elev- en traveled to Muskogee, Oklah ma, to play the champions of that s te.

Although our team was exceptionally well drilled on fundamentals by Coach Edward O'Farrell, its pre -tournament showing was not considered so good as that of many of the other thirty-two teams in the tourney. By a steady offense and almost impenetrable defense the team proved its merit by winning five very hard fought games and brought Parker its first city-Wide basketball champion- ship. ' The first game, which was against Kel- vyn Park, saw a steady playing Parker quintet take a lead of l4 to 8 at the half. This lead was increased by methodical teamwork which featured Conroy and Gill as the scorers. The final score was Parker 27, Kelvyn Park 18. The scoring effectiveness of Owen Gill and Don Con- roy proved to be the deciding factor once again, as the Green and White overcame a hard fighting Lindblom team's lead of 15 to ll, and finally emerged victorious in the second game 21 to l7.

' This second triumph set the stage for a bitter battle between two traditional south section rivals. Coach O'Farrell's boys changed Calumets title of defend- ing champions to ex-champs. The prin- cipal feature of this game was the marked success of the Parker team's man-to-man defense. It was this system of play that held a team which had won by a 44 to 16 score the previous day. At four different times during the contest the score was tied, but the determination of the Green and White lasted through the closing seconds of the game. With the score 16 to 16, and only one minute left to play, Captain Charles Wagenberg dropped in a hurried set shot to give Parker the lead. With only 45 seconds left, the teamwork of Gill and Conroy once again clicked as Conroy took Gi1l's long pass and placed the two final and deciding points through the basket. The final score was Parker 20, Calumet 16. 'New Year's Eve saw the fighting green clad boys, now a definite threat to the championship, playing a strong and fast team from Tilden.

Parker found the range in the second period and went into the lead as Conroy, Gill, Captain Ray Carpenter, and Bob Black all con- tributed to a rally which put Parker ahead 16 to 12 at the half. Tilden's de- fense held Parker to two points in the third period as the Techmen pulled up their score to 17. ln the final quarter the score went up to a 23 point tie on the sharp shooting of the Parker forwards, Gill and Conroy. With only one minute lef t to play, Captain Wagenberg made good on a free throw which put our team into its final lead. Gill's long basket proved to be the last points of the game, and Parker reached the finals by the score of 26 to 23. ' In the climatic game of the tourna- ment, Coach O'Farrell found his team facing a fast and high scoring Von Steu- ben five. However, O'Farrell's system of fast breaks and block plays which had been so successful on the large Univer- sity court once again proved its worth, and Parker reached its offensive height in the championship game to score a grand total of 37 points. ' Before a capacity crowd of over 2,000 spectators, Von Steuben took a first quar- ter lead of 12 to 8. Fast and steady shoot- ing by Conroy and Alfred Iones, who Black Wagenberg Conroy Melnick substituted for Gill, brought our boys to the half of the game with the score Von Steuben 20, Parker 19. In the third quar- ter our quintet rang up 11 points to take a lead of 31 to 25. The close guarding of Carpenter, Black, and Wagenberg was so effective that Von Steuben failed to score a single point in the fourth quarter. The final score was Parker 37, Von Steu- ben 25. ' The Senior five failed to live up to their championship title in the regular season. In the eight scheduled games against their south section rivals the team fin- ished in sixth place with a record of four victories and four defeats. The squad was defeated by Hyde Park 25 to 20, Bowen 33 to 22, Calumet 31 to 28, and Hirsch 33 to 23. The games which ended in victory for the heavies were Fenger 21 to 38, Morgan Park 32 to 33, Engle- wood 30 to 36, and Harper 22 to 42. ' Graduates who received letter awards were Co-Captain Ray Carpenter, Co- Captain Charles Wagenberg, Donald Conroy, Owen Gill, Elmer Melnick, Bob Wilson, George Dennison, Walter Plant, and Robert Broberg. Robert Black and Iohn Iorgenson are two returning regu- lars around whom Coach O'Farrell will build next year's team.

The Green and White cagers made a record of five victories against three defeats, finishing in a tie for fourth place. Alfred Iones and Jack Sullivan were co-captains of the team. ' Unable to keep pace with Hyde Park's rally after leading all but the last few minutes of game time, Parker's juniors dropped their opening contest to the Aitchpe Tribe by the score of 22 to 19. Sullivan and Iones led the scoring for Parker, making 7 and 6 points, respec- tively. ' An undaunted quintet went ahead, however, to whip Bowen 33 to 30. Bowen started a determined rally to overcome the lead, but the game ended with Par- ker still ahead. Iones accounted for l8 of the 33 points. ' The basketeers suffered their second section defeat of the season when they dropped a nip and tuck contest to Calu- met. The final score read 24 to 18 in favor of the Spartan five. This loss somewhat dampened Parker's future outlook. Sulli- van and Flanzer led the scoring with Eugene Petersen controlling the back- board effectively. ' A place in the city playoffs was shat- tered by losing to a powerful and accur- ate shooting Fenger team 32 to 23. A stubborn defense was upheld by Parker during the first half, but Fenger proved themselves section champs by gradually pulling away to a comfortable lead. ' The juniors completely outclassed a favored Hirsch team, winning their sec- ond league game, 30 to 20. Parker was off in great style, running a big lead with the game scarcely begun. The forward line of Sullivan, Flanzer, and Iones led the attack, with Petersen and McArdle shining on defensive play. ' Victory was again achieved at the ex- pense of Morgan Park by the overwhelm- ing score of 30 to 13. Parker immediately built up a huge lead and substitution was frequent. ' The next game was won against a fair Englewood team, by the score of 23 to 17. Englewood started a slight rally at the beginning of the fourth quarter, but it was immediately checked. Flanzer led Parker's scoring with 15 points. ' ln the final appearance of the season, Parker's junior quintet achieved their fourth straight victory by a win over Harper, the score being 46 to 30. Points were contributed by the entire regular squad who were all playing their last game for the Green and White. ' Letter awards were presented to Sulli- van, Iones, Flanzer, Petersen, McArdle, Schultze, Lavidge, Iohnson, and Len Abrams, the team's manager. ' THE IUNIORS IACK SULLIVAN . . .

Flanzer Schulze Leslie 6 Peterson K K Mclhdle Sullivan L ' As Spring practice opened, the prospect looked very promising for the Parker base- ball team. The city league season opened with a brilliant 2 to 0 victory over Harper. Greg Schultze, Parker pitching ace, was complete master of the situation, holding Harper to three hits. In the fifth inning Les- lie doubled over third base to score Iohn- son and Schultze. These proved to be the winning runs of the ball game. ' The line-up for the initial contest in- cluded Les Doyle, SB: Hugh Leslie, ZB: Cap- tain Frank Grabo, lB: Ed Barrett, C: Bob Black, C.l:'.: Frank Ehrig, R.F.: Bob Tabbert, L.F.: Dick Johnson, S.S.: and Greg Schultze, P. Others who broke into the line-up as the season progressed were Art Lavidge, LF.: Harold Grothkoph, lB: Bill Iohnson, 2B: and Art Manning, RF. Other members of the team who saw action were Roy Curtis, C.F.: Sam O'Neil, P.: Bob Wist, P.: Bob Till, P.: Graham Reese, C.: and Harold Marsh, 3B. ' The second contest was played against Calumet with Schultze again on the mound. The final score was 5 to 4 in Calumet's fav- Play, however, was dominated by errors, both sides making a goodly number. All of Cal's runs came as a result of some misplay, the winning run scored when Iohnson let a ground ball go through his legs into left field. Barrett, Parker catcher. and Black, centerfielder, were the leading hitters of the game, each collecting two softies. , ' Against Hirsch, a few days later, the boys displayed the same type of ball for the first four inning, giving Hirsch a nine run lead. Wiot, who had started the game as Parker's pitcher, was replaced by Ehrig, who in turn gave way to Grabo. In four and one-third innings of twirling Grabo held Hirsch scoreless, giving one hit and striking out ten. Behind this stellar pitch- ing the team came to life and drove the Hirsch pitcher from the box with a bom- bardment of hits. At the end of the seventh inning the game was called because of darkness with the score tied 10 to 10. ' With new spirit and improved team play, the squad traveled to Fenger and played fine ball, winning the game 9 to 4.

Five runs in the last inning gave Parker the vic- tory. In this rally Tabbert hit a long double to left, scoring two runs and Grabo drove in another pair with a single to center. ' The first day after spring vacation the Parker nine was host to Bowen. Three runs in the first frame and the same number in the third gave Parker 6 runs to 3 scored by Bowen. Hits by Tabbert, Barrett, and Leslie provided the winning punch. Schultze went the route for Parker hurling three hit ball. ' In the final game of the first round Par- ker lost a very close ball game to Morgan Park by the score of 2 to 1. Captain Grabo hurled for the Green and White up to the last inning when Wiot came in. Parker scored first, when in the fourth frame Bar- rett doubled and later crossed the plate on Leslie's single. The last of the fifth, how- ever, saw Morgan Park come to life and bunch a pair of walks and hits to push across two runs. . ' The team had a poor start in the second round as Harper advertised their earlier defeat at the hands of Parker by beating them 9 to 2. Our team, however, was weak- Doyle Ehrig ened by injuries and except for a home run by Doyle showed little power. ' This game was followed by another loss at Calumet. Schultze, making his first start since being spiked in the Bowen game, was touched for 6 runs in the fourth inning and the ball game. ' Friday, the 13th, proved to be a very lucky omen in the lives of Captain Frank Grabo and the Parker players. On the 13th the team traveled to Hirsch and behind the no-hit, no-run pitching of Grabo, trounced Hirsch 18 to O. lt was truly a field day as Parker made sixteen hits and showed fine support behind Grabo's perfect twirling. ' The team's record at the end of this game left Parker tied for second place in the South Section and with three games to go appeared very likely to win a place in the play-offs. As this book was published be- fore the season ended, the last three games must be omitted from this write-up. How- ever, the fine improvement in the recent play of the team gives us hopes of an ex- ceedingly successful season. The schedule of the remaining games is as follows: May 16, Fenger at Parker: May 18, Parker at Bowen: and May 20, Morgan Park 'at Par- k . - i fi? an Wg, HALF Grubgiwavpi .

' Aquatic teams which were defeated in contests with Parker's junior splashers are Fenger, Morgan Park, St. Leo, Tilden, Bowen, Lindblom, Harper, Calumet, En- glewood, and Hirsch. The juniors lost their only meet to Tilden in the battle for the south section championship. ' Letter winners include Captains Morris Eppley and Lewis McDonald, back- strokers: Iim Young, Richard Burkman, Edward Kibler, William Laskey, and Robert Stuckey, freestylers: Alex Mac- Senzie, breaststrokerg and Thoren Tuttle, IVGI. ' The senior team has been slightly less 264 fortunate, winning seven meets and los- ing tive. The seniors were led by Gerald O'Conner and Al Hume, freestylers and divers. In the first meet the seniors whipped their section rivals, the former section champs, Calumet in a close bat- tle. Other schools which lost to Parker are St. Leo, Tilden, Bowen, and Harper. The Green and White mermen were de- feated bv Morgan Park, Lindblom, Engle- wood, Hirsch, St. Leo, Calumet, and Morgan Park. ' Swimmers who received letter awards are Robert Lillien and Charles Tidholm, breaststrokersp Fred Goodman and War- ren Fierke, backstrokersg Byron Moore, Harry Iohnson, George Dewey, Iohn Bedford, and Nick Kershaw, freestylersg and Iack Sluis, freestyler and diver. Robert Kopp filled the position of man- ager. ' Although its ranks were sadly de- pleted by graduation, this year's track team, led by Coach Paul Spade and Cap- tain Iim Freutel, enjoyed a fairly good season. Those members of the harriers competing in the high jump were Iirn Freutel, Paxton MacMurray, and Bob Fierke. Iohn MacNamara and Dave Smith were the team's choice for the half-mile distance, while George Peter- son, Coleman Geary, and Bill Iohnston raced over the quarter mile route. In the city meet, Iim Freutel placed second in the high jump in a field which totaled sixty hopeful high jumpers. ' In the field events Felix Lubin was put- ting the shot over forty feet. On April 22 the team opened their outdoor season against Leo High School at Hamilton Park, losing by a very close margin. This event was followed by other closely con- tested battles in the meets with Oak Park, Proviso, Morgan Park, Hirsch, and Bowen. ' In a triangular meet with Hirsch and Bowen on April 19, which was one of the highlights of the track team's competitive season, Parker came in second through the stellar performances of Joe Davidson, miler: Iim Freutel and Paxton MacMur- ray, high jumpers: Tom Roche, dash man: and Milo Morrill, shot-putter. ' Track events are on the up grade, and the future of the sport, at Parker, is very bright. With Dan Osborne, Ioe Davidson, Mort Michaels and Charles Warren of this year's team returning, next year's should prove to be one of the most suc- cessful seasons in Parker's history. 265 Tennis Team ' After a successful season last year in which they annexed the south section titlr, Parker's tennis team started this semester on their city campaign. ' Iohn Iorgensen has placed in the state Wrestling Team ' Under the direction of Coach Paul Spade, a wrestling team was organized for the first time in Parker High School. Ten meets were held against other schools, our team winning one, tieing one, and losing eight. Thornton, Calumet, Tilden, Crane, Engel- wood, Lindblom, Bowen, Morgan Park, and Amundsen were the opponents. ' Members of the squad were Thompson, 95 lbs.: Rust, 105 lbs.: Captains Shanahan tennis tournament at Champaign, Illinois. Also representing Parker at this meet are Edward Fredericks and Thomas Small- wood, who with Ross Beatty and Edward Netchie have gained berths in the double competition. and Fox, 115 lbs.: Shadrock, 135 lbs.: Mazu- rek and Potratz, 145 lbs.: Poulas and Elio- poulas, 155 lbs.: Warren and Gailunas, 165 lbs.: Morrell and Page, 175 lbs.: and Lutz, heavyweight. The managers were Itzko- witz and Sinironiotis. ' On April 10, the city meet was held and although our team failed to win any first places, they made a fine showing in spite of their inexperience. The Fencing Team ' The fencing team, a comparatively new organization in the athletic department, made great strides in the past season. Parker's foilsmen, coached by Mr. Paul Spade, came through the contests with Hyde Park, Lindblom, and Morgan Park Military Academy with a record of two wins and two losses. Members of the team, Gymnastic Team ' Parallel bars, horizontal bars, longhorse, and other such terms are foreign to most people, but to Meyer Rothstein, Frank Ia- vor, and Iohn Bergeron, who comprise Par- ker's gymnastic team, they are very fami- liar. ' Although they lacked a large turnout this year, the team placed in the city meet. This year, Meyer Rothstein took third place according to their standings, are lim Freu- tel, captain: Paxton MacMurray, manager: Dave Smith, and Burt Vreiland. Substitutes were Floyd Anderson and Iames Denning. In order to score a point, the fencer must touch his opponent in the area around the chest with the point of his foil. A bout is ended when one person makes five points. in the city meets in gymnastics. Practice was held at the Bartlett Gymnasium at the University of Chicago because of the lack of facilities at Parker High School. Captain Beyer of the University's team took Meyer under his wing and assisted him because of his interest in the sport. The result was Meyer's high score in the meet. Lois Iolmson.

Serv- ice, loyalty, and good sportsmanship at all times is the motto of this department which is sponsored by Miss Dorothy Bres- nahan. ' Officers of the G. A. A. are nominated by the Senior Letter Girls' Club and are elected by a vote of all the girls in the school. An executive council consisting of all present and past officers helps the activities of the G. A. A. run smoothly. ' All the clubs affiliated with the G. A. A. meet on Friday as there are no gym classes scheduled on this day. One of the clubs enthusiastically attended by femin- ine athletes is the Volley Ball Club. After the volley ball intramural tournament, which ended with the coming of spring, an equally popular organization, the Baseball Club, grew up in its stead. ' Hockey is another fall sport which fas- cinated the athletically inclined young women. Members of the Hockey Club were divided into two teams in order to provide competition. ' Barn dancing, introduced by Miss Sarah Dargan last February, rose rapid- ly to popularity. Both boys and girls have attended the meetings and practiced steps to the Rye Waltz , the Virginia Reel , and Iolly Miller. Still another club found followers among both sexes at Parker. The Social Dancing Club, with Miss Bresnahan as sponsor and Cole Tarr as student instructor, offered stu- dents the opportunity of learning how to dance. ' One of the largest clubs in the G. A. A. during the last two semesters has been the Tap Dancing Club. Those girls who were exceptionally good were selected to participate in various programs. Among those who have appeared in pub- lic are Ruth Rosin, Frances Stasnic, and Margie Feinberg. ' In preparation for the duties of the Senior Letter Girls, Miss Sarah Dargan, sponsors a Iunior Letter Girls' Club. ! 1 2 E QQ SS E 5 321 1 fe 943-C, i i iliz x '74 Q ' fb9VfcLL'of2, senior letter girls f'5,Mm Q ' .1 , M , .

' ,Y 'w'n ' Carrying on an old tradition of Parker High School, the president of the June, l938 class selected a committee to pur- chase a gift for the school. After secur- ing the approval of the graduates, the committee finally decided to purchase a speaker's rostrum. ' The problem of finding a platform be- fitting the occasions on which it is used and adequate to the requirements of a senior high school next confronted the gift committee, composed of Arthur Saunders, Richard Tobin, Betty Whin- nery, Myrtle Gardstrom, Shirley Iudge, Marion Morgan, Edward Carlson, Ray- mond Howe, Raymond Conway, Gerald Nevin, Ardis Molitor, and Ruth Jenkins. 279 ' Of all the stands looked at by chair- man Barbara Minteer and various mem- bers of the committee, the one at the Rosenvvald Museum designed by C. Hu- boi seemed best suited to Parker's needs. An exact replica was made in black Wal- nut. With the advice of the faculty spon- sors, Mr. Hersberger and Mr. Wigger, four chairs to match were selected. ' A unique presentation was conceived by the graduates. The stand Was brought to the stage of the Civic Opera House on the eve of graduation and was used for the first time. ' The class of lune,- l938, leaves behind it this rostrum in the hope that it may long be enjoyed by Parker Senior High School. ' Thus We come to the last page of the 1938 Parker Pine. We can all look for- ward to clivining many pleasant memor- ies from its pages. As the boy looks into the Water to see an image of himself, so in years to come, will We peruse the con- tents of this book to get a reflection of our memorable high school days. 280 Photographed by Sanford Hedrik 0 ENTER ANY MONDAY Day Or Night CHICAGO COLLEGE OF COMMERCE Announces Bright.
