Proviso high stands as an architectural achieve- ment, a dream become real- ily. Directing the policies of the school through her twen- ty-ninc years of service and aehiexcinents has been the l'roviso Board of lfducation. consisting of five men elected by popular vote in the vari- ous towns. lflection is held the second Saturday in April.

Newcomer, of May- wood. secretary, Emery A. Pariehy, of Forest Park, president in 1933-1939, B. Leslie Allen. of Melrose Park, secretary in 1938-1939g Irvin C. Hendrickson, of Bell- wood. Each oilicer serves for one year, or until his successor is elected and qualified. The view you see now is the first edition of Proviso high school, erected in 1911, with an enrollment of 241. ln 1915, to the surprise of all, this new building was out- grown by an enrollment of 523 students. An addition was demanded which added to the original a library, a gymnasium. and a cafeteria, as well as more classrooms. In 1924. came yet another addition, complete with a swimming pool, a girls, gymnasium. and an enlarged auditorium. Shortly after this, the school bought more land, extend- ing north to W3ShlHg1llI1 boulevard, and east toward the Desplaines river. ln 1929, Classes were being held in the gymnasiums, library, and cafeteria, be- cause of the overflowing enrollment. A greatly increased plant was inevitable. The result was the edifice pictured here, joined gsrzlphed. the building, g:.'Ie:llnin,2.' in its newness. uns still surrounded with the debris ol' its construction lnuterinl. The tuo llllgil' IIDIPI4' trees which lent Il sturdy friendliness to the new :und Nlllll011'lllll lonely lmildinfg, were ol' necessity removed as they gradually de- euyell.

The growth of Proviso has been as spec- tacular as the meteoric rise of a radio star from comparatively nothing into decidedly something. Today, its enrollment is 4024 pupils, 1932 girls and 2092 boys, and the end is not yet. Eight towns and forty-four diverse nationalities are represented. The classrooms number 120, and the faculty, 132. And now let me point with justifiable pride to Provisois crowning achievement, her fieldhouse. Of brick, with stone orna- mentation. and of steel construction, the edifice, costing 3450,000, came to the re- t lief of the badly crowded boys' physical education department, and, indirectly, to E i E that of the girls', also. It was constructed during summer and fall, 1937, and, in at spectacular dedication pageant, presented to the public January 27, 1938. ln the next scene we behold the huge concrete pride of Proviso, her stadium, located at the west end of the athletic field. This structure, completed in 1934, has a seating capacity of 2000. On the under f ll:15 and all's well! tieks the eloek. as we get this slant-eye- view of Provisifs tower.

Here a veritable treasure-house of knowl- edge and beauty is lighted by amber win- dows imported from England. Specially' designed furniture. gleaming oak panels with built-in bookshelres. wrought-iron chandeliers. and a spacious cary ed balcony running the length of the room add the finishing touches to its Old linglish archi- tccture. With an air of peace and quiet dignity cycr enyeloping her. the library remains the most pleasant sanctuary in the building. where the student yisits with the innnortals of literature to his mindis con- tent. brary cooperates in close harmony with all departments of the school. During school periods, English classes spend interesting and beneficial hours studying books, cur' rent exhibits, or periodicals. National Book week. celebrated annu- ally throughout literary America. is a popular one in proviso. The climax of the National Book holiday is reached when winners of various book contests arc announced. Here we see two interested students, probably participants. Co-librarians through the hrst semester of this year were Miss Louise Meyers and lVliss Laura Holliday.

Here we meet an invaluable element of the school. the janitorial-engineering force. consisting of three groups. which I intro- duce respectively: the maintenance men, who are responsible for the general condi- tion of the school: the janitorsfsome of them-and matrons. whose main task in life is to keep the huilding clean and orderly: and the boiler-room licensed engineers. who regulate the temperature of the class- rooms by controlling the supply of heat. Withcwut this staff. Proviso would soon lose one of her chief assets. her neat. well- groomed appearance. Head of this force is A. J.

Miss Mary Carroll. as registrar. and Miss Martha Smith. secretary to the superintendent. attend to the multitudes of clerical duties ineyitable in a large institution. They have a corps of aides. The counselor group plays an increasingly' important part in the life of Proviso. You see here Miss Elizabeth B. Oakes. counselor for junior and senior girls. and john W. Hinds. counselor for boys of the same classes. They' are engaged in helping students who want to go to college arrange their pro' grams to that end. This is only one of their many functions, which include an endless variety' of social, educational., per- sonal. and clerical responsibilities. Individual interviews with many pupils is an integral part of their routine. Miss Ruth Beck and Otto llillner look after the well-being of the sophomores. Croup counseling is an important feature of their work. ln each session. one half hour is given to study' or to committee work: the other half. to group discussion. Participation by' as many students as possible under the leadership of the group president or an especially' chosen chairman is emphasized in all actiyities. The aims of the freshman counseling groups. with Miss Virginia Hayward and H. IC. Carr in charge. are to adjust freshmen to their new enyironment and to offer them oppor- tunities for individual development. This year. for the first time since the counseling system was established in Proviso. a freshman advisory board was organized composed of the chairmen from the yarious groups. lts purpose is to proyide leadership for group discussions. its a special project.

Of foremost importance in the art of communicatitnn todayf is the science of radio. A study of the art of writing radio script has found a place in several classes. Radio speech. in- troduced this year. not only offers training in appearance before the microphone. and in the preparation of scripts. but also cultivates a discriminating taste in the use of the radio. The addition of a radio to the equipment of the lfnglish de- partment has made possible the use of educational programs such as the American School of the Air and the development of radio appreciation in all English classes. ln the study of present-day literature. the magazines render valuable aid. The Scholastic is used regularly' by senior classes: the Atlantic Monthly. llarper's. and the l'leader's Di- gest have all served. Magazine study forms a regular part of all English courses: circulating libraries of magazines arc ayail- able for two days each month in each class. Most students feel that the use of magazines makes literature more vital and significant than exclusive study of the classics. Writing is stressed in all EllgllSl'l courses. themes of more or less length being required throughout the four years ol high school. Letter writing. book reviews. and the writing of reports are taught. ln the senior year. the 'tvocational essay hecomes a source of benefit in many ways. Special writing courses include secretarial writing. required of all taking the commercial course: news writing. for those interested in pub- lication work: and creative writing. for those who like to learn to express their own personality' through the medium of written language. Heading. possibly the most fundamental aid to success in all lines of study. receives emphasis in all regular courses. Sometimes pupils have failed to attain the degree of proficiency Eileen X!'hite. .L ll. t'hairni:In. Grace 'l'rig'::. .L YI . Assistant t'lI:Iirman Wlanley lnnuel. l'h. ll..

To correct this deficiency, courses in remedial reading now form a regular part of Proviso's English curriculum. lndividual attention is stressedg reading matter of interesting content and suitable difficulty is provided, and teachers especially trained for this work strive to help those who are handicapped by lack of ability or opportunity. Gratifying results are obtained. Public speaking has long been offered as an elective in the third year. Now, under the direction of Manley XV. lmmel. the scope of the work has been broadened to include speech training as a part of many of the courses. A recording ma- chine has added greatly to the interest and the effectiveness of the course in public speakingg the opportunity to hear one's own words, with all their faults or merits. has greatly stimulated improvement in speech habits. Dramatics, which find some expression in various clubs in the school, form the content of a course elective to juniors who have shown ability in earlier classes. Stage settings. costuming, the intelligent reading of parts, study of charac- terizations and pantomimeg all the elements which enter into dramatic productions are surveyed and studied to the extent made possible in a semester's course. The presentation of short plays or of scenes from longer ones becomes a vital part of the work. Occasionally the students migrate to the social room where they may have the benefit of stage and lights, and put on creditable productions. Occasionally the English teachers indulge in social relaxa- tion. At the end of the first semester, Miss Mozelle Honey re- signed to be married. ln her honor, a tea was given, attended by most of the department. Miss Eileen White presided at the tea tableg Mrs. Roney was an honored guest. We show you here a glimpse of the occasion. For the past two years, a committee consisting of the Misses Anna Harman, Violet Hogan, Mary Emge, Ruth Neal. Grace Trigg, and Eileen Vllhite has been at work revising the curriculum to make it contribute more effectively to the present and future needs of Provisois boys and girls. Their work is beginning to bear fruit. and points the way' to still greater achievements in the future. 2 ifrmn-es Killian. A. Jl. lf. 1 Irlllellelore ldlllllltllll. A. WI. l-Ilezlllor Aliee L0ll0k.

'I' H E ll IC I' A ll 'I' WI IG X 'I' S I Y A I' 'I' I 0 N I LATI X It is logical that following the lfnglish department we should present the Latin department. devoted to the study of the language from which. directly and indirectly. sixty per cent of our language is derived. The head of this work is Miss Julia Evans, whom we here picture with several of her pupils, who are studying some of the many views of ancient Roman life which are part of the equipment of the department. With the trend of modern education away from the cul- tural and toward the vocational subjects, the number of stu- dents in Latin classes has dwindled: this year only two courses have been offered. But many of those who take their education seriously still seek a foundation for later work in science. in law, in medicine. by studying Latin. ln both courses. the chief objectives are that the student acquire a more intelligent and discriminating knowledge and use of the English language through the study of Latin sen- tence structure and vocabulary. and that he become acquainted with some of the features of ancient life by means of readings. both in Latin and in English. These readings afford many opportunities to point out parallels between modern and an- cient life, and thus to show American boys and girls that Roman civilization is still of importance to them. The freshman has not been in the department long before he discovers an interesting connection between Latin and his everyday life. He finds that his friends, Vincent. Martin, Leo. Norma, Vivian, Stella. and many others, have names which come directly from Latin. Those who are interested in music discover the meaning of the terms used in that art. Because school is an interesting topic. freshmen are eager to read stories concerning the education of Roman boys. Wax tablets resembling those used as slates in ancient days: models of the catapults, which were the heavy artillery of the Romans, and other objects of historical value still hold interest. Since the second-year student has acquired a somewhat extensive vocabulary. he gains increasing satisfaction in trac- ing the relationship between Latin and English. Lists of words which have come into our language without changing their original form include alumni. campus, circus, consensus, focus, rostrum, and countless others. While such words as nepolism and plebiscile might send the average sophomore to the dic- tionary, the second-year Latin student associates them with his Latin vocabulary. and uses them easily. By thus correlating with geography, history. music, and English, Latin takes its place among the social as well as the cultural studies. Called by some a Hdeadu language. it finds its immortality in modern Spanish. French. and Italian languages, as well as in lringlish. It is inconceivable that it should ever altogether die.

Miss Florence Vffilliams. with the assistance of six instructors, supervises the work of 713 students. Miss Viola Scala has been added to the faculty of Proviso as a member of both the italian and the English departments. To know a language, one must study the pronunciation of its words. Correct enunciation and accent also play an impor- tant part in this study. If one wishes to speak correctly. imita- tion is not sufhcientg one must learn how the sounds are pro- duced scientifically. ln the interest of this cause. the students study the position of the lips and tongue while speaking. Phonograph records of speech drills are played. and radio pro- grams coming from foreign countries are heard during class hours. The study of the language of a country includes the study of its customs and literature. There is an increasing trend in all classes toward the greater appreciation of foreign culture and civilizations. Plays are dramatized. and poetry written in the language studied by the student is memorized. An exhibit having among its features a miniature of the Eiffel tower. a Mexican serape, a dress from Germany made of wood pulp, and a Florentine leather purse. was sponsored by this depart- ment. lnterest in travel and international affairs is stimulated by this course. The study of the language itself makes visible a new world of ideas in that it constantly correlates with history, art, science, and music. He who knows only one lan- guage looks at the world with only one eye. A language course is related to nearly every other subject in Proviso. Through studying a foreign language. at times the students discover that they do not know the fundamentals of finglish. It is to correct this fault that daily drills are given in transla- tion, vocabulary building, and conjugation. This work not only enriches the vocabulary but also provides a keener perception of English, the mother tongue. All languages are instruments for training in precision. accuracy, definiteness. and orderly thinking. This stimulation of oneis linguistic faculties is in itself an intellectual exploration fully as thrilling as any other adventure in the field of learning. A knowledge of languages does much toward the broadening of one's outlook upon the lives of people other than those of the United States. It provides an opportunity for students to extend their line of thinking by widening their horizons so that they may be less provincial. To accomplish this end, students study maps and pictures. Travel talks are given. and students get information about foreign countries from the newspapers, magazines, and radio. To get the most out of the language of a country, one must study its geography. First-hand information is given to students by the instructors who have traveled and studied in the foreign countries. Florence ll. xxvillillllli, A. VI.. filliliflllllll Humhert Genttlin. A. NI.

Station PTHS introduces the social science department as seen in Proviso. The sciences taught here may he divided into two main courses. one emhodying history, and the other. civics and political science. Governor of the social studies department is lf. XV. Stuhhs, who is assisted hy' a lower governing hody' of eight lieutenants of the pedagogical order. This course. concerned with human relationships in the world of history and politics. proposes to explain the present hy delving into the past. The history' group is further divided into studies and general courses in specific fields. There are two general courses: world history. which treats the evolution of man as the evolution of world cultureg and survey, which tends to define man according to his geographic heginning. Students who have developed a larger appetite for history or politics may choose courses in special fields. such as Central and South American history. dealing with the prohlems and aspirations of the trade and travel views of the Americas. Their other choice may he civics. emhracing citizenship and politics. Other courses are linited States history. which is compulsory in the senior year. and deals with the states and their people in national lifeg and, lastly. political science. helpful to those conlinuants of law. history. or puhlic service. Different programs of classroom activity have heen intro- duced this year. The department is developing courses to help students understand the hasic foundations of social progress. All classes of lsnited States and world history are following the same course of study' so that the students transferring from one class to another will find no gap in the perusal of the suhject. The teaching staff hopes that its work is sufliciently vitalized to instill in students a desire to continue to study society and its agencies. whether they enroll in college or com- plete their formal education with high school graduation. Emphasis is placed on activity teaching. ln class, the history students have the opportunity' to take a great part in conducting the course. The students work at their own speed and initiative. lfvery' history course. hy demanding an extensive study of events in the world of today. points out the historical factors which have prompted the present political actions. Une day a week is devoted to this study. and. in some classes, students work on special projects which deal with persons. countries, and organizations of national and international prominence. These projects require individual study' and weekly' classroom reports. The social studies. when undertaken with enthusiasm, fur- nish hackground for many' other courses: the arts. the sciences, and the languages. History' in Proviso. as throughout the world. is of the past. in the present. and for the future. E. WY. Stubbs. A. ll.. t'hairman t'larelu-e XY. Failor. Ph. ll. WI. Nl. lfinstacl. A.

Catlin is the chair- man ofthe scientific section: with him are fourteen regular teachers and one substitute, all of whom are busily engaged in instructing more than 2.000 science students. One of the oldest in Proviso. this department aims to serve all peoplegthose who n1ay desire to continue their work in scientific study, and those who simply wish to satisfy their curiosity and generally broaden their knowledge. The courses of study are so constructed as to teach the embryonic scientists, as well as the general students, the truth about the life around them. Formulas, laws, and theories are stressed, as well as the practical sides of the work. Freshmen begin their study with general scienceg sophomores may select botany or Zoology, juniors and seniors have geology, physics, or chemistry from which to choose. Microscope studies are an important phase of the laboratory work in botany. A large new microscope has been added to the equipment with the intention of using it primarily for research. thus doing much in the way of making a more com- plete, detailed course. Field work and trips to the surrounding forest preserves are taken in the spring and fall. ln addition to these, experiments with plants growing in the propagation house give the botany students a chance to have direct contact with the plant world. ln the study of practical Zoology. animal models play a large part. The tanks of fish. the crocodile, and the frogs in the conservatory offer a chance for student observation of actual Zoological life. ln this course, too, trips hold a prominent place on the year's calendar. ln the south end ofthe building are the rooms where students may tinker with test tubes and manipulate motors. The chem- istry and physics courses lay a foundation for advanced work in the chemical and physical sciences, at the same time arming the student with all-important practical knowledge. Field trips to scientific exhibitions and through large industrial plants add interest to textbook study. A course in general health is offered freshmen during the year in connection with their general science work. This is the second year such a subject is being taught on an experimental basis, and as outlined, its purpose is the consideration of the health problems of students. Two new elements have added to the efliciency with which the science curriculum is being conducted: an additional room. which has complete laboratory equipmentg and the visual education program. which this year marks its second cycle at Proviso, and which gives a keener insight into subjects that can merely be touched by textbooks.

Provisols department of mathematics has grown so that this year it was necessary to add two new teachers. Miss Lillian Arends and Miss Mabel Swanson, to the staff, making a total of ten. No record of science is complete which fails to consider mathematics, the Hqueen of the sciencesf' Mathematics is a universal language which enables man to express his logical thought in concise and compact form. lt also affords new methods of discovery, in some instances excelling the resources of the laboratory and forcing one to face basic considerations. These facts impress themselves on students of trigonometry and college algebra as they set up their problems, analyze their hypotheses, develop relationships, eliminate superfluous and irrelevant facts, and finally, through proof, attain powerful formulas and economy in thinking and expression. Algebra, knowledge of which man is finding increasingly necessary in doing the work of the world, developed as civiliza- tion became complicated and man found it necessary to control his environment. This need forced him to find methods more general and techniques more powerful and universal than the ones arithmetic offered. As the student becomes familiar with these, his adeptness in using such devices as the slide rule increases, since thorough mastery of it depends upon a knowl- edge of the fundamental principles of algebra. The next scene shows some geometry students at work. For them, mathematics is a mode of thinking. To mathematize a subject does not mean merely to introduce equations and formulas, but to mold and fuse facts into a coherent whole. with postulates and assumptions clearly recognized, definitions faultlessly understood, and conclusions scrupulously drawn. So mathematics has developed an ideal or pattern, not necessarily attainable in all things, but worth striving for. We now flash before you a picture of those in Proviso who wish a more general treatment of the work of this department. They attack the subject from a social point of view. They soon discover that the beginning of mathematics is dehnitely pre- historic. Throughout the centuries, all races have contributed to its growth, so that today mathematics throughout the civi- lized world is regarded as indispensable to the further progress of mankind. Under the relentless stimulus of hunger, cold. and desire, man inevitably asked the questions, Ml-low much?l' allow many? i'How longfw The answers to these led to the development of our number system, an epic achievement. ln everyday living, it is necessary to be capable of quantitative thinking. to gather and organize data, to present and evaluate it properly.

THE llEPAR'I'DllCX'l'S IX At l'ION I COMMERCE Coming from a department that is one of Proyisois largest is this broadcast of the activities in the commercial division. Ten teachers, banded together under the chairmanship of Ellsworth Brooks, handle the classwork dealing with actual vocational problems and subjects. This years commercial enrollment shows an increase over last year's of more than one hundred eighty students. These pupils will receive a general commercial diploma at gradua- tion. evidence that they will have obtained an education in general business. Such specific. vocational training given on a junior-senior level will enable many to secure positions upon leaving school. Four television photos accompany this discourse as illus- trative material for the contents. The first shows a demonstra- tion of the calculating machine. the main instrument in 'thc study' of comptometry. C0llljJl0lIlClTy teaches the touch system of manipulation, along with the fundamentals of addition. subtraction. multiplication. and division on the machine. This type of work regularly demands new employees. since the supply is seldom adequate, which makes this particular branch of commercial training profitable. Every day people read newspapers and hear radio programs, so naturally the study of advertising. which is vital to both. proves profitable and interesting to students. Here at Proviso, classes learn the bases of advertising, such as make-up. value of ads. and other elements required by business men in that field. The commercial geography course aids students in reading and understanding articles regarding trade. commerce. and world affairs. It helps one to visualize the location of world events and their significance. Geography study broadens the studentis knowledge. and also helps prepare him for a host of other fields in which to find jobs. You have heard and seen three representative features of the departmentg here is the fourth. bookkeeping. All the basic points connected with corporation work and the keeping of books enter into the classroom sessions of bookkeeping. liven if not used yocationally. this study can help people be more intelligent in personal matters involving the subject. As in geography. bookkeeping prepares the student for numerous positions. Among other subjects offered is economics. which closely interweaves with the study of accounting. law, business. history. and finance. It affords an understanding of national and inter- national affairs, government economic activities, and the devel- opment ofa richer background for social and business contacts. The study of general business provides a background for more advanced and specialized subjects. It also gives a general picture of business at work. Many pupils wish to determine their vocationg this course offers them a chance to explore the field of business. IG. WY. llrooks. .L ll.. l'Iuairman Arthur Krause. A. Nl. John R. Fouleur. WI. S. J.

O. R. Wessels is the chairman of a staff of nine teachers. Shorthand, typing, and OHICC practice are offered to enable the students to meet more efiiciently the increasing demands of modern business. This year has shown an increase in enrollment. The course in office practice, which is offered only to seniors, attempts to develop self-direction, quickness of comprehension of the task, and efliciency in performing it with the highest standards of accuracy. Development of a better understanding of business from the standpoint of the consumer as well as of the employee is encouraged. The students are taught to operate mimeograph, calculating, comptometer, dictaphone, ditto, and mimeoscope machines. These provide an opportunity to become more widely trained in oflice work. Practice in filing, typing legal documents and business forms, and operating a switchboard is afforded. Training for the work of billing and invoice clerks is offered. The entire course pro- vides work and sufficient preparation for almost any beginning business position, and offers promotional opportunities for many positions in business organizations. The stenographic department, which stresses speed, accur- acy, and efficiency, has been enlarged with the addition of two new typewriting classes. Besides the correct method of operating a typewriter, the use of carbon paper, the correct forms of business letters and financial statements, and many other details of typewriting are practiced. A new typewriting text was adopted this year for the use of beginners, making it possible for them to learn the keyboard in eight lessons, and then proceed to drill on sentence and paragraph material. The student is enabled to keep a record of his progress by taking timed tests. This course calls for a high degree of concen- tration. Stenography provides for an improvement in spelling, a larger vocabulary, and an adequate knowledge of punctuation. The use of a new shorthand textbook, which mainly emphasizes greater transcription progress, has been introduced this year. One-half the time allowed for instruction is utilized in tran- scription practice. The department has been granted a new room which is being used for transcription purposes. The room has been fitted with the newest equipment, including desks with folding tops. These new desks were chosen especially for transcribing pur- poses, since they do much toward an increase in speed. 0. Il. VYessels. A. Nl.. t'h:tirm:ln Harvey XXI-Ish. A. NI.. t'o-t'hnirm:tn D. D.

Tl-IE DEPAR'l'MEX'l'S IX ACTION I HOME ECONOMICS The home economics department, supervised by Miss Fae Duvall, now makes its debut on the television screen. Six teachers present this course in rooms specially designed to accommodate their needs. Striving to have the students become home-makers, if they so desire, this work provides practice in the arts which are included in home-making. Courses in clothing, foods, home decoration, home management, and home crafts for boys are offered. Beginning with learning to run a straight seam and advanc- ing by degrees. girls in the clothing classes are taught to make simple garments for themselves. In advanced classes they learn to make dresses, formal and informal, and suits. A study of colors and styles adapted to the individual is an important feature of the work. A style show exhibiting the work which the pupils have done has come to be an annual feature of the department. The course in foods provides for learning the function and nutritive value of food. Emphasis is placed upon the selec- tion and purchase, and the planning, preparation, and serving of edibles. The advanced foods course embodies the study of nutritive values in foods, economics of purchasing, history of foods, and table etiquette. The consideration of etiquette and social customs develops poise and a cultural background. ln the foods classes, the study of consumer goods is carried into grades of meats, milk, eggs, and canned goods. Learning to judge the freshness of fruit and vegetables is another important part of the course, Home crafts for boys is a one-year composite course which the department offers to boys because of the interest shown by them in home economics. This is the first time in the history of Proviso that a home economics class in which only boys may participate has been conducted. Miss Louise Porch and Miss Pearle Betts have instructed the class of twenty-five boys. Family relations, home planning, clothing needs, health, and standards of courtesy are some of the units of work. Interest in the study of consumer education is rapidly growing in all classes of this department. This involves the problems dealing with intelligent buying and consumption. The sewing courses stimulate the ability to judge the quality of fabrics and ready-to-wear garments. The advanced clothing course provides supervision in discerning the value of heavier materials used in outer garments. Current styles are anticipated as well as analyzed. The study of historic and national costumes adds a cultural value to the work in clothing. Fae Duvall. B. Chairman Pearle Betts, M. S. Charlotte Jackson. WI. Genevieve Krebs. ll. S. Marie Oliver. Ph.

We watch, fascinated, as the searchlight plays on the gigantic broadcast of the industrial arts department. Throwing a pencil light, first on bench work, then on printing, then on electricity, and finally on architectural drawing, the beams exhibit the achievements of the boys who are learning to 'iwork with their hands as well as with their heads. Carl Bergstrom is the chairman of this division. which has twelve instructors, each a specialist in his own particular phase of industrial arts. Proviso's various shops are now adequately equipped to enable these teachers to give the students the fundamentals of work in which both are primarily interested. Notice the tele-photo of the fellow demonstrating the use of the new sanding machine, under the guidance of the instructor. Tools such as these help members of the department to give modern, up-to-the-minute information on every subject in the field. As our gaze moves d0WI1 the television screen, the art of printing, depicted in the second flash, captures our attention. Here, supervised by an experienced printer, the boys compose, take proofs. and print the ofhcial stationery of Proviso high school, and many registration forms and permanent records, as well as attendance blanks, out-of-the-room permits. library and interview slips, and advertising, tickets. and programs for the school's multitudinous activities. Costly, intricate, technical equipment was purchased this year to create a new course, electricity, the activity shown in the third view. Under the tutelage of a master electrician, the boys have been able to study bells, alarms, conduits. and b-X tubing, as well as to learn the basic principles involved in actual work on such problems of construction. Architectural drawing, shown last, enables us to broadcast the minute details of this pre-vocational course. Plans for homes, visualized within the classroom, are drawn and then realized by the use of models. Thus, under the guidance of an expert draftsman, the fruit of the pupils, creative ability becomes visible reality. Perhaps most popular in the department is the auto-driving course, offered to boys and girls who have no previous knowl- edge of mastering the science of driving, and who want prac- tical, correct instruction. A dual-control car is used. equipped with an extra brake and clutch pedal for the teacher. Rules of road courtesy are taught. At the end of the semester. citizens of Proviso take a driver's examination, having had eight hours of actual driving experience. The industrial arts department does not attempt to make its students master craftsmen in the various arts, but seeks only to build a good foundation for those who have exhibited an interest in this type of work, and who have expressed a desire to learn how to work f'H:1Cl6Ill.ly with their hands as well as their headsf' ll. lt.

THE DEPAlt'I'llEN'I'S IX ACTION I PHYSICAL EDUCATION One of the more important broadcasts emanating from Sta- tion PTHS is that from the physical education department, whose aims stress the necessity to have and to keep a healthy body. Those who whole-heartedly participate here endeavor to excel in specific sports and in physical prowess. Proviso's gymnasium courses are compulsory, every student must enroll in one of the six phases of physical education: regular gymnasiuln, swimming, dancing, sports, restricted work, or health. Miss Mary R. Wheeler is the chairman of the girls' physical education departmentg L. W. Remley, of the hoys'. Miss Josephine Foster has been added to the leaching staff this yearg her chief responsibility lies in the swimming courses. There are nine instructors in this department, each specializing in some different phase of physical education. After-school co-educational recreation and social activities have been undertaken by the department to promote a feeling of sociability among the students and to advance good will and fair play in all their activities. Moreover, an extensive program of intramural volleyball, badminton, basketball, and table- tennis for both boys and girls has been promoted. This has been made possible because of newly increased space afforded by the new fieldhouse and girls, gymnasium. Co-educational classes in social dancing have been added to the regular program. This practice has proved to be bene- ficial for social aliairs staged by other departments and clubs. Creative dancing in junior and senior girls, classes and the advanced dance group have also proved to he an interesting method of acquiring a working knowledge and appreciation of the intricate art. With the new swimming pool in the lieldhouse. the girls have full-time possession of the pool in the main building. making possible the opportunity of two or three semesters of supervised swimming. The inclusion of life saving in the regular physical education program manifests itself in a special life-saving guard composed of junior and senior students. ln charge of the medical department of the school, which is of inestimable value, is Dr. C. M. Weinberg, assisted by Miss Helen Robinson, registered nurse. Each student is examined annually at the start of the semester to determine his physical status. If his condition is found to be questionable, he is enrolled in one of the two courses offered for physically hampered students, restrictive gymnasium or general health. Now that the lack of space is no longer a problem to evade or to overcome, the physical education department of this school is in the position greatly to advance and uphold the physical morale of the Proviso students, and, judging from annual reports, such results are already being achieved.

It was the opening event of May- woodis seyentieth birthday festival. This, together with the attraction of the highly- , BROADl'AS'I' No. III publicized Duluth powerhouse, probably accounted for the crowd that swarmed the Proviso grounds. E. R.

Duluth scored its touchdown early in the third quarter after a hard-fought deadlock in the first half. Milleris spectacular punt- returning, passing, and kicking kept Duluth in hot water during most of the game. Proviso made her most serious scoring threat of the game in the middle of the last quarter. Miller made a 22 yard pass to Blaha that put the ball on Denfeldis 20- yard stripe.

Opening their season against York, the Ponies triumphed 19-7. Following the initial victory, they repeated with victories over Glenbard, East Aurora, and the Fen- wick Reserves. The defeats were handed out by the Fenwick Reserves and Oak Park. The lone tie was with Oak Park in mid- season. In one of the toughest battles of the season, Proviso Ponies defeated the Fen- wick reserves liy a T-6 score. Coach Hagen started his second-stringers against the heavy Friar boys. He shortly replaced these with the regulars and no advantage was gained by either team until late in the second quarter when Fenwick scored its touchdown. The Ponies failed to capitalize on a Fenwick fumble, and the play was even the rest of the third quarter. Late in the fourth quarter, a pass to Surico scored for the locals. and '4BilJs Rusch tallied the winning point. Mainstays on the lightweight eleven were Al Scharf and Gabriel -Orvino in the back- field. Paul Andermann at guard, Bill Raus at tackle. and Henry Rust-h and Earl Brown at the ends, formed the nucleus of a power- ful line. Proviso's cheerleaders dressed in their natty blue-and-White uniforms were another treat the Proviso followers came to expect.

The Junior Council gets oil to an early start in the fall. Miss Scott and Mr. Creen meet with the delegates to acquaint them with their new duties. A sketch of the year-s activities and the authorization of the necessary committees are effected. One of the principal sources that the junior class has for earning money is the concession that it is annually granted of selling refreshments at the football games. Vitally important in this work are the following teachers: li. A. liullington. chair- man, C. XV. Bills. J. R. Couleur. and the Misses Genevieve Krebs and Mary lvest.

The four otlicers for the soph- omore class are as follows: Glenn Johnson. presidentg Mary Kay. tice - president: Jeanne Rissert. secretaryg and Robert Sanders. treasurer. Helping the oflicers in their work of di' recting the affairs of the class are the fol- lowing sponsors: Miss ldllendore Lampton. chairman. the Misses Marie Baldridge. Ruth Beck, Cleora Fancher. and Violet Hogan. and O. A. Bolt. V. R. Kent. C. lf. A. Moore. and Otto Dillner. lVhen the year opened. the sophomores displayed their willingness to begin work as the homeroom representatives gathered September 3. Together. they discussed the speeches which were to be presented to freshman homerooms. The purpose of the drive was to promote freshman cooperation in the homerooms and also in the school. The whole scheme was part of the big brother and the big sister movement being fostered in the sophomore ranks. lVork does not constitute the whole of the active sophomore plan. December 1 and 2 are set aside as the dates for the double party of the class. One night is devoted mainly to the playing of games. while the seeond features dancing as the center attrac- tion. Class members are offered their choice of parties, but may not attend both. Later in the year. March l-lf. an assembly is held for the sophomore class. Medals are given to students of all classes. and speakers offer brief statements of advice concerning scholarship. p Evidently Miss Ilillllllltlll was seart-hilIi.:' :I tiny. featllered friend when this pieture was snapped.

The freshman oflicers this year are Byron Hawkins. president: ,lean Morgan. vice-presidentg Shirley Skallerup. secretaryg and Stuart Finlayson, treasurer. Those sponsors who have been largely responsible for the training of the fresh- men and the administration of their pro- jects are the following: R. H. Kuster, chair- man. R. A. Bullington, H. lf. Carr, M. H. Goodwin, Wfallace Nelson, and the 'Misses Frances Gospill, Virginia A. Hayward. Ruth Neal, and Louise Porch. Picture-taking for the freshman identi- fication files was one of the first rituals the newcomers had to perform. Our tele- vision set flashes you listeners an illus- trative picture. As a diversion from the science course, freshmen were offered at the beginning of school, a new course in the study of experi- mental health. The study was outlined to center around problems of personal hy- giene and student health. October ll. awards and speeches were featured at the scholarship assembly held before the freshman class. Closely associ- ated in theme with this project, although not directly connected. were the addresses given by Superintendent E. R. Sifert and faculty members before the freshmen. The topics eoncerned adjustment to academic and social conditions. and the school as a source of citizenship training. The boys and girls had an opportunity to gain social experience when the coun- seling groups under Mr. Carr and Miss Hayward organized counseling parties for the week of November 13-13.

The cluh has access to the extensive literature catalogued in the schoolis vocational library with which to carry on its study' of the various occupations. Aptitude tests are given to the memlmers as a means of enabling the participants to discover their particular ahilities for certain types of jobs.

The Commercial cluh contains the fu' ture higwigs of business. Questions and problems which confront the student start- ing out in the business world are discussed in detail. Talks on personnel and the cor- rect way to apply for a position. demon- strations of the latest office equipment. and the genial good times of their social meet- ings all contrihute toward making this one of the outstanding clubs in proviso. The members gaze fondly at the ma- chines shown in the last tele-photo.

This organization is divided into two groups. the E11 Avant for French l students. and Les Xlmis flu Francais for N those in the second or third year language classes. The programs are arranged Ivy the latter group in the interest of furthering a knowledge of the French language. As most of the discussions are conducted in this tongue. the meetings consist largely of singing French songs and playing French games, as here illustrated. Activities are planned to acquaint the members of the Cluh with French customs and to foster an interest in the arts developed in that Country. One of the more dramatic and impres- sive of the French cluh meetings is the formal initiation held on November 16. The members to he inducted are divided into four groups, each representing some city of France. liar-h group then presented a pantomine. One group gave an exhibition of a French zoog another modeled the latest Parisian creations made out of news- papers: the third portrayed a typical French classroomg and the last gave a play.

EXTRA-t'I'llRll'l'LAR t'Ll'HS I The German club endeavors to foster an interest in the German language and the history of that nation. This it accomplishes by round-table discussions, reports, and lectures, based on German newspaper and magazine articles. ln this way the members learn to appreciate the views of the press in foreign countries. and are able to form their own opinions on European situations As you glimpse the first picture, you wit- ness the most impressive ceremony of this organization-installation. The room is lighted only by candles, each representing one of the four ideals to which the pros- pective members pledge themselves: clean speech, clean sports, clean scholarship, and clean living. lVlembers of proviso Hi-Yls attended many conferences held under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. of lllinois. Early in the fall. three members attended the Chic-ago area Hi-Y council meeting at Camp Dun- can. These included Earl Brown. Don Thistlethwaite. and Vllarren Wliedeman. by collecting data from both sides of the question. The members of the German club elected as oflicers. Le Roy Gohrs, Gerda Behrend, June Koschman. and John Her- old. Miss Schlueter and Mr. Kuster are sponsors. The dials are now turned to the Hi-Y's. one of the most active club groups in Pro- viso. The congeniality and good times at their meetings, their service to the school, and the ideals for which they stand. all contribute to their value.

But the daily newspapers are not the only sources in which the Historians seek information. Lectures. discussions, f'What,s My Namefw contests. and the solving of jigsaw puzzles concerning historical sites also constitute a major part of the data. This semester, two young men who fought on the Spanish Loyalist front told the members of their experiences in the war, and brought back many interesting souve- nirs to illustrate their talk. This year a Hi-Y Council was organized in which two boys from each of the five sections were elected to plan the activities of the club and to aid in drawing up the laws regulating the Hi-Y. 1 Highlights of the Hi-Y's events were the Breakfast on May T in Thatcher's woods. and the annual Spring Formal in the social room May 19. A joint Hi-Y-Senior Guard tea on March 30 climaxed joint discussions on boy-and-girl relationships. The Historians prefer to learn their geog- raphy and history via armchair travel. Through a wide variety of both educational and entertaining programs, the members are able to study the perplexing trend of affairs at home and abroad. At the first meeting of the club. the executives are elected. The officers for this year are: Betty Thompson. presidentg Evelyn Holer, vice-presidentg Frances Clarkin, secretary, and Lois Nlarston, treasurer. Our attention is shifted to the first pic- ture, snapped while the members pored over the headline news and collected infor- mation on the current state of affairs in Europe.

Provisol lt's the chant of proviso enthusiasts giving their team support under the peppy direction of the cheerleaders. This year the Pep club and the Student Council united forces and formed the Ath- letic Loyalty association. Proyiso loyalists sponsored a pep assembly for the season- ticket holders, and sold pins and llowers to pay for the cheerleaders' new costumes. One of the grave problems facing the new organization was the lack of olbcers. To remedy this. members chose the follow- ing: James 0'Rourke, Charles jolinson, Shirley Nielson. and Robert Allen. Mr. Krueger has charge of affairs. The Loyalty association supports all the athletic activities not only by verbal pep talks but also by clever posters and slogans which literally Hood the halls and class- rooms. One of the added attractions to the season's games was the loyalty favors. Pirate hats, Hawaiian leis, and pompoms, in addition to the- peppy gymnastics of the cheerleaders. added colorful tone to the games. The Maestri is composed of musically inclined students who have held the lime- light long enough to have conquered shaky knees and trembling fingers while waiting for the Hdown-beat,', and who willingly perform before their fellow musicians. The club was formed to foster musical interest 1 and to afford information for its members l on composers and musical expressions.

YI The Mathematics cluli adopted a new plan this year when it decided to carry on its husiness in four separate sections. each dealing with a different aspect of mathematical enterprise. The MHlht'lllilg'it'lt1IlS is the main clulm with which the other three dixisions meet once a month at a general meeting. The officers are Louis Greco, Donald Taggart. Betty Saule, and Dorothy Pike. Our attention now focuses on the Xlge- matricians. pulilishers of the clulv paper. The lVlathemagician. Miss Swanson. sponsor. together with the oflicers of the organization. Rolrert Riley. Louise Nlolezzi, Wlilliam Pace. and Axeril King. lends a helping hand to ths project. The first copies of The Malllemagi- cianv are issued. as the accompanying pic- ture of the staff members shows. after the material has lveen carefully edited. The paper is divided into four sections: litera- ture, humor. puzzles. and news. The suln- ject material in each section is connected with mathematics. The literary page contains articles on the history of mathematics and gives bio- graphical sketches on the lives of great mathematicians: the news section consists of material from the department and from the math cluhs in general. The staff of this paper includes Herna- dette Holuh. editor-in-chief: Walter La Berge, assistant editorg Yvonne Steffen- hagen and Jo Ann Perring, news editorsg Helen Talerieh and Elizabeth Loi'-ke. litera- ture editorsg Frank Sander and ,lohn Murphy, puzzle editors: Bob Wliley and Minnie Westerhoff. humor editors. and Ruth Polanco and Bill Pace. art editors.

DIOR!-T Al 'l'l-Ill-Nt'll0OL l'l,l'llS I We leave the Algematricians to become acquainted with another branch of the Matlielilagicians. the Construction group. headed bv Miss Terhune. At their first meeting of the year, the group elected Rachel Murray, Carolyn Wynne. Dolores Lee, and lean Clark to lead them. Those interested in the camera angle of this group took photographs illustrating various geometrical figures, such as tele- phone poles for parallel lines. the roof of a house for angles. At an April meeting a calculating ma- chine was secured for a demonstration. At a preceding gathering, Rachel Murray exhibited the abacus, a rectangular board using beads as a means of counting. These math-sharks take time out to play games as shown in the upper right tele- photo. The members also show an interest in the dramatic side of life. Plays with such novel titles as uAlice in Dozenlandf' Wfhe Eternal Trianglefi and 4'More Than One Mystery are among the productions. Another section, the dramatic group. adopts the name Tri-X. Miss Arends is sponsor. Officers for the year are Charlotte Williaiiis. Richard Person, Charlotte Ben- ner. and Kenneth Benjamin. The last picture is that of the Review group. expertly guided by Miss Hilde- brandt. lts purpose is to arouse a greater interest in mathematics and to analyze and solve advanced math problems. The sec- tion also offers a review of mathematics in an attempt to stimulate interest in schol- arship competition. Officers of the Review group are four boys. Larry Sarahan, Marvin Karr, How- ard Karl, and Donald Taggart. I Vl'ho said figures don't lie? Whoever saw them standing up here, probably.

Our scanning scope picks up the thread of our story in a series of pic- tures snapped of the Girls' Riding club. This organization makes the Cumberland stables the mecca for all the would-be equestriennes. and spends most of its time trotting down a bridle path. No matter how skillful the rider or how simple the garb, the customary Saturday morning rides are a congenial get-together in good compan- ionship. Muddy bridle paths and horse-ankle- deep snowdrifts eouldnit freeze the enthusi- asm of these bronco-busters of the femi- nine gender. Despite numb toes. and a powderless nose, these girls insist the brisker the weather, the better they like it. Membership in the club is open to all junior and senior girls who feel the urge to 'Agallop away to the wide open spacesw A 'fand who pay their dues. Instruction is given at the academy for those who are not skillful with the reins and other acvou- trements. Each girl must ride at least twice a month, and must bring a written state- ment from her parents giving their Con- sent. ln their social meeting of this semester. they make plans for a breakfast ride. After an invigorating canter in the freshness of 11 spring morning, the riders hold a picnic to satisfy their ravenous ap- petites.

Mlllllfl A l 'l'lCll-SFHOOI. l'Ll'llS The Senior Science club members are among the many who show an ever- increasing interest in the field of science. and among the few who take advantage of the opportunity to learn first-hand infor- mation on some of the practical everyday applications of physical law. A major part of the yearis activities are the trips taken by the members to sur- rounding factories, museums. and exhibi- tions. Some of the places the club visits are the Sears-Roebuck laboratories. the Lady Esther cosmetics plant. and the liquid air plant in La Grange. A current project has been the publishing of The Science Philosopherf' a news magazine supervised by Mr. Kochenderfer. sponsor of the or- ganization. Assisting him in this task are the officers. Vernon Strobl. Mae Bartsch. Joyce Goodfellow. and Robert Boughton. A new club now Hashes on the screen. The Scribblers. the cream of the literati. come forth this year with renewed en- thusiasm. This group tends to develop its members in the skill of writing by having them try their hand at penning their ideas on paper. and by teaching them to appre- ciate the work of others. ln the interest of promoting creative ability. the Scribblers produce sonnets. short stories. essays, and free verse. At the head of the activities are Norma Phillips. Paul Staehnke, Yvonne Steffenhagen, and Beatrice Marcus. lVliss Baldridge is the sponsor.

Back to the stage once more. The Sopho- more Dramatics club offers experience in dramatic production and initiative for those second-year classmen who esteem membership in that famed organization for juniors and seniors, the Proviso Players. as the height of their ambitions. This club is divided into two groups, the L' Harle- quills. sponsored by Miss Fancher. and the Filodrammatici, headed by Miss Har- ris, in which the members learn the art of acting. of producing, and of putting on plays. The officers of the former group are Robert Bruggemeyer, Mary Loudon, Elsie Martino. and Florence Bingham. Heading the Filodramniatici are Barbara Hart. Helen Toopes, ,lean Renk, Kathleen Mc- Cleave, and Richard Davis. These dramatically inclined students have conquered stage fright to such an extent that they willingly perform before their fellow members in such scenes as the one shown in the second picture.

Stor- by's varsity basket- eers begin their com- petitive season with a 23- 19 defeat at the hands of Elgin in the local lieldhouse. Har- ry Tannehill was the high scorer for Pro' viso, with five points. Five cagers from Evanston ganged up on a sturdy band of Pirates to start Pro- viso oil' on its Suburban league race with a 25-13 defeat. Following this came a 24--22 triumph over Highland Park, and a loss to Morton, 39-23. Playing two games in as many nights, the Blue-and Whites, a much better-looking squad than had appeared on the floor against the Redbirds, trounced cellar-bound New Trier, 32-25: then lost lo Oak Park, 39-27. Nothing Provisols varsity could do was good enough to stop Waukegan and its star, Otto Graham. Graham scored 19 points as Waukegan eked out a 41-39 vic- tory. Ed Mikuseh starred for the locals, marking up 13 points. Victory-starved New Trier next recuperated from its slump long enough to stop Proviso, 32-21. Evanston turned on enough heat to scorch the Pirates, 42-32, in their second clash. D BR.0ADl'AS'l' No. Yll Waukegan barely managed to win, 33-31, in the final seconds. Bob Blaha potted 11 points. ln a post-season game with Clenbard, the Pirates were vanquished, 30-18. Thus varsity basketball fades until another year. The proving-ground for future varsity teams, the junior varsity cagers, defeated Evanston, Waukegan, and Oak Park, but suffered defeats from Evanston, Morton, Waukegan, and Oak Park. The freshman squad downed Evanston, Oak Park, and Waukegan. Defeats were handed them by Evanston and Morton. Cordon Smith tired in four field goals for the Storbyites. The Blue-and-Whites made a gallant start against Highland Park, but the High- landers regained their poise to win, 30-25. Bernard Mack and Ed Mikusch tied for scoring honors with eight points apiece. Proviso was trounced by Morton, 48-32. The Pirates journeyed to Oak Park to meet the Parkers the second time, and lost, 45-31.

Bryan molded his fresh- soph quintet around Glenn Johnson, soph- omore star. ln the yearlings' first game, Elgin eked out a 19-13 victory. The Elgin team was made up of lightweights com- posed wholly of juniors and seniors. Proviso's squad opened the real race by journeying to Evanston on December 2, and winning by the tally of 33-28. The following Friday it repeated over Morton on the Cicero hardwood by the almost identical score of 33-27. After feasting gloriously on these two victories, it con- tinued to gorge itself by devouring High- land Park on tht- home court, 31-13. The fresh-sophs opened the new year by taking two one-point victories on success- ive nights. The first was over New Trier, 32-21. The following day. january 7, Oak Park succumbed to the final tally of 29-28. Waukegan was the next victim the follow- ing week by another narrow squeak, the score being 29-23. A two-week vacation seemed to be a jinx for the locals, as on January 27, New Trier avenged its one- point defeat by handing Proviso its first loss of the year by the score of 30-20. Proviso made up for this loss the following week by edging out a 42-40 decision over Waukegan, but again fell before the High- land Park attack on the Highlanders, band- box court, 33-26. Morton was next dethroned on the field- house floor by the score of 34-21. Oak Park was handed another defeat by a 23-26 margin. Then, climaxing a most successful season and clinching sole possession of the title, the fresh-sophs rolled over Waukegan by the score of 26-16. Conquering the All-Stars, 3-4, in the final game, the Hitch Hikers captured the freshman intramural basketball champion- ship. Sixteen teams entered the tourna- ment which was conducted through the counseling groups. Winner in the sophomore round was the Comets who vanquished the Panthers, 9-7. in the title contest. Top senior team was Homeroom 13411 which defeated the quintet from 23413, 19-18, in the decisive tilt. While the intramural contests were be- ing conducted through the homerooms and counseling groups, a series of intra- squad games between the reserves on the fresh-soph basketball team was being staged. A round-robin schedule of 15 games was played. At the close of the fourteenth round, the Navy Blue team led the Red squad by a mere game. The two leaders clashed in the final round and Red was the victor, 13-11, in a tight contest. ln the play-off battle, Lindblad spark- plugged the Navy Blues to a 29-21 vic- tory, giving his team the championship.

They were supported by Crenier, Stott, and Fi. Cleft. The influ- enza epidemic kept many of the Proviso mermen out of action at intervals through- out the season. The main cogs in the fresh-soph team were Partin, Miksto, McGrath, Seabrooke, Kunz. and R. Cleff. who are expected to bolster the varsity next year. The varsity opened against Wells and lost. 44-22, but it came back a week later by swamping Lindblom, 39-27. Tilden con- quered the Pirate swimmers, 44-21, and Highland Park did the same. 35-31. Oak Park submerged the locals in their own pool. 37153-281A3. l3'roviso's tanksters battled Crane Tech to a 31-31 tie before dropping a meet to New Trier, 42-24. and another to Champaign, 36-20. The local mermen dunked Waukegan a few days later, 41-25. to capture their first victory against a Sub- urban league school. Morton defeated Pro- viso. 43-23, and Evanston followed suit. 33-28. to end the dual meet season. Wfrestling Coach L. F. Slimmer, ably as- sisted by C. W. Bills, began his campaign for the third successive state championship about December 1. Early seasorfs activities showed the three Bishop brothers, Chuck, Tommy, and Fred, dominating the lighter weights. johnny De La Paz assumed his former po- sition in the 125-lb. class. Ed LeVert and Paul Andermaml. at 135 lbs., prepared to share the honors for the season. Al Scharf 'o took over the duties in the 145-lb. spot, while Humphreville was campaigning the 155-lb. class. Chuck Bryant, the first semester, took over the position, and Bud moved down to 14-5. Del Vesco took over the 165-lb. spot at the beginning of the season, but relin quished it to Bob Mustain at the ning of the second semester. Ed took charge of the 175-lb. position, Jim 1V1ustain wrestled at 135 lbs. D S1YilllDlillI1,' teams-'Pon row: lt. t'letf. Pariehy. Manager Meseke. E. t'letf. Grenler. Walker. Roeder.

Yll I now introduce to you Jeanette Feuer- stein, who will give you an account of the activities of the Girls' Athletic association, familiarly known as the G. A. A. Good evening, friends. As you turn the dial, on the screen Hashes a view of the G. A. A. oflicers pre- paring for a busy year. They are Betty Pritchard, president, Elsie Behrend. vice- presidentg Jeanette Feuerstein. secretary: Marjorie Brown, treasurer. Girls may lveconle G. A. A. members when they receive 32 points for eight prac- tices in a specific activity. Wherl a girl carns 600 points, she may receive an award. Higher awards are given to those having 1200, 1600, or 2000 points. Three members, Betty Lauth, Jeanette Feuer- stein, and Betty Pritchard, receive their 2000-point award this year. On September 21, girls' after-school sports began. The activities offered were soccer, hockey, archery, tap dancing, and junior life saving, in which you here see girls participating. The annual freshman play day spon- sored by the G. A. A. and supervised by Miss Eva Eddy, club sponsor, was held on September 24 for the purpose of acquaint- ing freshman girls with athletic activities. About one hundred fifty girls, some of whom are seen trying their luck with bow and arrows, turned out to participate in this all-sports day. After registering, in which they were assigned to one of four competitive teams, the girls joined in a grand march directed by Miss Mary Wheeler, head of the girls, physical education department. The va- , G. A. A. otlieers, Elsie liehrend. Betty Pritchard. Jeanette Feuer- stein. and Marjorie Broun discuss some plans for this active organi- zation.

Winter recreations take over the screeng the end of November sees intramural com- petition in table tennis, basketball, swim- ming, tap dancing, archery, junior life- saving. badminton, volleyball. and tum- bling. Trophies are awarded the winning teams, whose members receive individual awards. Approximately one thousand girls participate in intramural tournaments dur- ing the year. The G. A. A. board joined with girls of the Senior Guard in sponsoring a splash party and pot-luck dinner the first week in November. The swimmers indulged in water polo and other aquatic games under the supervision of Miss Eddy. Supper and dancing in the social room followed imme- diately afterwards. Committees were headed by Helen Smith and Betty Lauth. ,luanita Polanco and lVlarlyd Thompson assisted with preparing food. Jeanette An- dermann, Mary Alice Arnold, Florence Croll. and Grace Vetter composed the clean-up committee. On November 30, an array of freshmen is initiated into the sanctum of the organi- zation. having earned their 32 points in some activity. G. A. A. members frolic at their annual Christmas party December 16. A huge Christmas tree brilliantly lights the girls' gymnasium. The traditional Santa', is present and gives each girl a gift. Sports awards are given out, and a brief skit is put on by several members. Grace York plays a piano solo, Lorrayne Plagge sings. and Marion Stahl gives an accordion solo.

' ln March, Miss Jackson of the physical education staff resigns to take a position in the University high school in Chicago. Mrs. H. L. Rider acts as substitute for the remainder of the year. Spring activities include baseball. tennis, golf, and swimming. The March election of officers for 1939- 40 meets with the following results: Elsie Behrend, president, ,lulia Marrone, vice- presidentg Ann Mossner, secretary: Mar- jorie Brown, treasurer. They will assume their duties next September. Leaders, awards are presented to Doris Price, Julia Marrone, Dorothy Craumer, Eleanor Crotty, and Elsie Behrend. Six hundred point awards are received by Elsie Behrend, Ann Mossner, Julia Mar- rone, Vivian Rende, and Betty Slone, while Jeanette Feuerstein receives her 1600-point letter. Following the presentation of awards, the girls partake of ice cream and cake. P These four young ladies have ping'-pong: paddles right enough. but where's the table?

A., the installation of the new officers and man- agers takes place at a tea, held this year in the social room on April 26. Initiation of new members shared the spotlight at this time. For the first time in many years, Proviso girls participated in interscholastic compe- tition when they swam in the state tele- graphic swim meet on April 21. The mem- bers of the team were timed for various distances, and the best time was sent to the meet headquarters at Waukegan. There, the best times were compared and the school having the best record was rec- ognized as the state champion. The strokes used in the various events were the side- stroke, the crawl, the back-crawl, the breast-stroke, fancy diving, and formation swimming. Fifteen girls were selected for the team. And so the broadcast comes to a close, leaving in our minds a vivid pitture of the outstanding activities during the school year of the ever-active G. A. A.

T h i s is Pr o v i s o Township high school bringing to you the eighth in its series of broad- casts by means of the P T H S Radio and Television Corpora- tion. Your armoun- cer is Jeanette Feu- erstein. This broadcast is concerned particular- ly with certain activ- ities which have more or less cultural value as expressed in art, m u s i c , dramatics, publications, and de- bate. They lay emphasis on education for leisure-time pursuits, and seek to develop appreciation of literary and artistic merit. The outstanding achievement of Proviso this year in an artistic way was the pro- duction, Americans All, which put into play the artistic, musical, literary, dra- matic. and mechanical resources of the in- stitution. First presented as a feature of American Education week in November, it was repeated for the Teachers' Institute which convened in Proviso on March 22. Conceived by Miss Wilhelmina Marin, head of the art department, and given the bene- fit of her personal supervision in many of its countless details, it involved coopera- tion of many elements and persons to pro- duce what was unanimously declared to be an unqualified success. soloists: national dances followed each of the groups. Dramatics entered the pro- gram by presenting appropriate theatrical or operatic elementsg you see here the musical high-light of the occasion, Coetheis Marguerita singing the 'flewel Song from H Faust.

His work throughout the production exhibited a fine interpretation of the conscientious business man.

The Blue Book staff of 1930-l-tl is here- with presented: Frances Weisser, jane Pinkerton, Loraine Peterson, Jean Good- rich, and Catherine Heitmann, working under the guidance of Miss Grace Trigg. The purpose of thc Blue Book, issued yearly principally for the benefit of Pro- visois freshmen, is explained in the fore- word by Superintendent E. R. Sifert: It is a pleasure to place this book in the hands of Proviso students, with the sincere request that each of you use this handbook as the basis for planning the details of your school lifef' The duties of each new staff are to re- vise the Blue Book to correspond with new conditions in Proviso. The pamphlet con- tains approximately one hundred pages. including several full-page pictures of typi- cal high school activities. Miss Beatrice Bonine, of the art department. and H. F. Johnson, supervisor of the Camera club, are responsible for the pictures in next yearis book. Resolved: That Proviso shall uphold its debate reputation of other years by choos- ing subjects embracing all phases of good debate and training speakers to argue con- vincingly. And here is the team that made this un- official resolution at the beginning of the term and through hard work and polished skill carried out its intentions: Charles Sittig, John Cannon, Doris Olexa, Jane Pinkerton, Mary Kay, Jim U'Bourke, Bea- trice Marcus, and Norval Zimmerman, t Ta coached by Charles E.

PANOIRADIA Ol TYPICAL EYEXTS I And now the spotlight centers on spring sports, baseball, track, golf, and tennis. We will turn first to Coach D. B. Apple- tonls 1939 baseball squad which has at the present time won three games in as many starts. This season saw the return of sev- eral key men. Al Scharf is the nucleus of his pitching staff, from early season form. it appears he will have a successful year. Assisting Al on the mound will be Bernie Mack and Augie Rodenbostel. This is Mac-k's first season out for the squad, it looks as though he would be able to fill Surges' shoes. Augie Rodenbostel is a product of Coach C. XV. Bills' fresh-soph squad, and Coach Appleton is giving him plenty of work, for Augie will probably be the mainstay of the flingers next year. Fippinger, Marsh, and Bruce round out the staff. Bob Blaha, a triple letter-man, fills out the other half of the battery. He was a regular last year, beating out Frank Bubis for the position. Bob's understudy is Muns- terman, who also rose from the ranks of take over the backstop duties next spring. Norm Beyer, another three-sport man, resumes his duties around the initial sack. Beyer, the champion bat-breaker, will be back for another successful season. Schmidt relieves Normy and is a capable under- study. Kuechel is another hold-over from last this year's squad. Billy Fowlkes, a fresh- man, is expected to take up where Kuechel lets off. Bob DeAno and D'Anza are fighting it out for the shortstop position which was wide open at the beginning of the season. Al Miller, the most publicized player on the squad, takes over his duties at the the fresh-sophs. He is being groomed to season, and one of the bright lights of hot spot. I Coach Appleton's varsity nine poses. Top row: Coach Appleton. Froetscher, Mu selmun, Sinon, Manager Murphy, Holt. Manager Barrow, Mack, Trapp. Smlth. Second row: Fitzgerald. Fippingzer, Kelstrom, Marco. Derrico, Kuechel, Miller. Front row: D'Auza, Beyer, DeAno, Schmidt, Rodenbostel, Caution, Ewert. I The umpire, who is dellnitely not headless and who is Coach Wall, calls a close one at second hose. Lou Remkus doesn't seem to agree with the ump's decision. I Set it up, there, Marco if you expect to beat out that hit! First baseman Bob Caution won't he waiting all day for that throw. I Now here's the way to hunt, hoys, says Slugger Ewert. But if everything' goes okay, those active fellows standing: before the batter will be on deck quick enough to fleld the hunt that rolls their way. I Eagle-Eye Fitzgerald raps a clean hit into deep center, while his three happy mates watch the ball soar skywnrd. I-low about the catcher? Looks rather disappointed. 117 P PANORAMA 014' 'l'Yl'll'AI. EYEXTS D Brust, Fitzgerald, Remkus. Marco, Ewert, and Derrico patrol the outfield and supply the slugging power for the squad. Remkus and Derrico are the only ones who will be returning next season, and consequently are receiving much tutelage from Coach Appleton. ln two non-conference games with Aus- tin, the locals emerged victorious in the opener, 6-3, and the nightcap, 6-2. Al Scharf pitched for four innings and allowed the opponents but one hit. holding them scoreless. In the first league game of the year the Pirates clouted out a T-2 victory over ljvanston. Scharf was the most effective Proviso hurler, being practically untouch- able in the tight spots. ' Appletonls nine met with disaster in the form of lVlorton's Ken Polivka. who struck out i4 and won the game for the Cicero lads, 7-0, on April 27.

The District track meet and the Night relays will be the big events on the local oval. The Second Annual Night cinder relays will have even larger entry and at- tendance lists than last yearis successful competition. Lee Farmer is the star of this yearis team, running in the dashes and annexing a first place regularly in the broad jump. Herb Collins is taking up where Norb Essig left off in the mile run. Totten is another Pirate distance man who finishes well up in the fore. Dahlberg and Boehm handle the 880-yard run for the Pirate speedsters. Glenn Johnson, Buford, and Ulrich dom- inate the high jump for the Blue-and- White. Both Johnson and Buford will be back for competition the next two years. Homer King, a junior, is the locals' main threat in the hurdles. Art Regan is the squad's muscle man, he puts the shot and heaves the discus. Farmer, Stewart, Augustine, and Cor- bett compete in the 4-40-yard run, and also form the relay team. Cliff Augustine has been out part of the time with a strained tendon, and his place has been taken by Robinson who has shown up well. The weather during the middle of April is unspeakable, the weather man takes revenge on all helpless mortals who pre- viously have directed tongue-lashings at him. For nine consecutive days, H20 drips down on the wretched students, then sud- denly the sun makes a brisk apology by breaking out with a beaming smile-not to say a scorching one. The Proviso thinclads showed up well in the early season meets. At the Oak Park Relays, Lee Farmer, the Pirates, mainstay, captured seven points for the locals. He took a second in the 50-yd. dash, losing by a shade to Thomas of Evanston. In the broad jump, he finished a third, although he has frequently jumped more than 23 feet. The fresh-sophs turned up with plenty of power. On April 19, they crushed the Austin tracksters, 30-6, on the home oval. Outstanding performer of the squad was Charles Buford, who reached 20 ft. 9 in. in the broad jump. Robinson cap- tured a first in the 50-yd. dash, running that distance in 6 seconds flat.

A special bulletin has just been brought to our desk announcing that the Proviso orchestra has once more been rated in the first division at the State con- test held at the LaSalle-Peru high school on Saturday, April 29. It was the only one of the four Class A high schools competing to have each of the three judges give it a first-class rating and a recommendation to the National contest to be held in lndianap- olis on Saturday, May 20. The other com- peting Class A orchestras were Morton, Joliet, and LaSalle-Peru. This is the fourth time that the Proviso orchestra, under the direction of Wallace Nelson, has won first-division rating in a State contest, the other times being in 1933, 1935, and 1937. Twice, in 1935 and in 1937, Proviso has received a second-class rating at the National contest, from now on till May 20, we're going to concentrate on a first-place rating this year. Naturally, as the spring weather gradu- ally makes its appearance, the juniors and seniors begin to think about the big social event of the year, the Prom. ltis hard to believe that another month, climaxed by this gala event, ends Proviso life for the seniors, but when the class assemblies are held, the belief becomes a certainty. At the girls, assembly, Dorothea Medal, ,40, introduces lVliss Oakes, girls, advisor, and in the boys, assembly, LeRoy Brown, line, which greets all arrivals warmly, will be composed of junior and senior class ofiicers and faculty members. Parents who are invited to the Prom find themselves having almost as good a time as their children. The dance really begins when the orchestra warms up and couples get into the swing of it. ln time begins the traditional Grand March, led this night by LeRoy Brown, president of the junior class, and Drucilla Schulein. As the last weeks of school roll around, the seniors discover that too soon their high school life has come to an end. The memories and past experiences are to be re- garded as all overfi The Sunday before graduation exercises is set aside for the special service, one of '40, introduces Mr. Hinds, boys' counselor. Both explain the fundamental rules of the Prom dress and procedure. A detailed dis- cussion follows regarding the date, indivi- dual dress, and social manners. May 12 will find hundreds of gaily dressed, excited Proviso-ites arriving for the Prom at Oak Park club.

All music organizations will combine to pre- sent a great Festival of Music in the field- house on May 14. Flash! Awards for excellence in many lines of endeavor will be made at the Honors assembly on May 22. Our announcers and actors relinquish their positions on Station PTHS, and take instead the offer of Station WORLD. They trust that they are prepared for it, capable of overcoming all obstacles. The Proviso station, however, has been the training school for these people, it has opened the way, pointing to happiness and success far in the distance. And now we, the broadcasters and script- writers representing the Class of 1939. must turn the microphone over to those who are to follow us on Station PTHS. We Wish to acknowledge our indebtedness to those directors, coaches, assistants, and engineers who have helped us to attain whatever degree of success may have been ours during this series of broadcasts. We say goodbye, not only to our radio audience, but also to Proviso high school. We shall endeavor in the years ahead to profit by the criticislns and the praise you have so generously given us. While it has been impossible for us to acknowledge all your courtesies personally, we ask you to accept this assurance of our appreciation. This is Station PTHS signing off. and wishing you one and all health, happiness. and prosperity. Your announcer has been Roy Johnson.

Your announcers tonight are Florence Croll and Norval Zimmerman. Dedicating this last program to the Class of 1939 of Proviso high school, we wish to tell you some of the interesting facts about the personnel and achievements of this class. Florence, will you give our audience some of the statistics regarding the class? Just how many graduates will there be? F. This is the largest class yet graduated from Proviso, exceeding last yearls by about seventy. There are 381 girls and 422 boys, a total of 303. While numbers have decreased since 1129 freshmen entered in the fall of 1935, 161 girls and 163 boys having withdrawn, three girls and five boys entered this year. Fifteen or sixteen families each have two children graduating, six sets of twins are included. Four students have a perfect attendance record for their high school course: Robert Brochocki, Mary Celli, Rita Driscoll, and Marvin Karr. N. ln such a large group, there must be many who have excelled in various ways. Some have centered their interest on scholarship, others have been devoted to clubs, publications, music, or athletics. What have the members of our class accom- plished academically? F. Well, there are 26 gold, 72 silver, and 104- bronze schol- arship medals distributed among the members, 60 more among the girls than among the boys. Reading from A to Z, the five who top the list in scholarship are Aline Amling, Joyce Good- fellow, Katherine Hanson, Alma Tognarelli, and Norval Zimmerman. That greatest of scholastic honors, membership in the National Honor Society of Secondary Schools, was voted to 33 members of the class in their junior year, and to 74- in their senior year. You, as president of that organization, have found Jean Cargill as vice-president, Grace Vetter as secretary, and Donald Thistlethwaite as treasurer, of great assistance in the work of the year, haven't you? N. 1 surely have. Don't forget the Harvard Club book award which last year went to Donald Hawkins as the highest rating boy in the junior class, no wonder he has made a good managing editor of our school paper! F. True. We must remember, too, the girls who have re- ceived the coveted P.E.0. awards for ranking highest in schol- arship: Aline Amling in 1936, Alma Tognarelli in 1937, and Ruth Murray in 1933. 4 126 I BROADl'AS'l' No. X N. The Class of 1939 has not neglected social and executive development. During the past four years, the entire pattern of the Student Council has been revolutionized, the organization has profited extensively by the enterprise this year of its presi- dent, Harry Lehnhardt. Yours truly, formerly vice-president, and Joyce Goodfellow, one-time secretary, have also thought Student Council work worthy of their best. The Loyalty organ- ization, headed by Juanita Polanco and Jim 0,Rourke, and the trafhc clinic, in charge of the monitor captains, have been new features this year. F. Participation in student government is afforded to girls by the Girls, League. Jeanette Andermann got a running start on her work as president this year by acting as second vice- president last year. Betty Jones, Mitzie Hesselbarth, and Phyllis Main have shared official responsibility. N. Here is a good time to call the roll of all those who have been class officers of 1939. The victors in the hard-fought polit- ical battle in 1935 were Earl Brown, Joyce Goodfellow, Eleanor Rush, and George Kaspar. Sophomore year, the reins were taken over by yours truly, Norval Zimmerman, as president, Ruth Grauman, yourself as secretary, and Fred Bishop as treasurer. Junior year saw the inauguration of Robert Dame, Mary Alice Arnold, you in a return engagement, and Warren Winskaitis. This year, Fred Bishop, Reno Testolin, Helen Lehnhardt, and Paul Krueger have borne up nobly under their duties. F. While we're calling the roll of honor, we should pay tribute to the service rendered by our publications. The weekly Pageant has been under the guidance of Don Hawkins, as we said, with Gladys Storch as editor-in-chief. The Provi has had Harry Lehnhardt as director, Shirlee Georges, art editor, Danny Weinberg, picture editor, and Howard Hill, business manager. A host of others have helped the good work along. Among the fields which Proviso excels in is music. Last year alone, we placed 26 solo and ensemble entries in the first division in the National band contest-more than any other school in the country has ever placed. The three most outstanding artists were Alfred Kilbey, Mark McDunn, and Julius Nordholm, each twice National winners. The orchestra contributes Evelyn Weidler, string bass, and Marion Stahl, pianist. The Voice department presents the melodious notes of Evelynne Gray, Lorrayne Plagge, and John Ziesemer. N. Now for the world of sports. Let's take a moment to consider which of all those involved would be rated as tops. We venture to name these as the popular favorites: Fred Bishop, wrestling, Lawrence McCarthy, swimming, Bob Blaha, basketball, Al Miller and Al Scharf, football, Truman Dahl- berg and Milton Corbett, track, Clarence Surges and Bill Kuechel, baseball, and Elmer Batterman, golf. F. Donlt assume that athletic activity is limited to the boys. The G. A. A. offers a varied program for girls. State awards have come to Marie Bergman, Ethel Radtke, Lillian Lekawitch, and Virginia Vertuno, for earning 1600 points, and to Jeanette Feuerstein, Lorain Belluomini, and Betty Lauth, for 2000 each. N. And now, before we start the processional of those about to be graduated, we offer you the Hall of Fame-the twelve members of the Class of 1939 who, by vote of their classmates, are worthy of this honor. That done, we shall present individ- ually the members of the graduating class. May we now wish you a pleasant summer vacation? And when you have finished listening to the broadcast of the Class of 1939, you,ll understand why we say to you Thanks for listeninglw 0!lNlEYI'l-INlEY'l' 0l-' THE l'L.lS5 OF 1939 D .I ti x A tj 'r 't' I-1 A N DICH- SIANN: heeause she has been a graeious and eflieient hostess as pres- ident of the Girls' League . . . she is love- ly and poised at all times . . . her ealm is seldom ruffled . . . she has a pleasing voiee and a subtle sense of humor . . . she does naturally what others End difheult.
