Q 5, lc-it 'mi ? ? r -tilt Miss XVray Dr. Turner Care of Health Health, which is thc first and one of the most important ohjectives of education, is greatly stressed in Rockford High School. Tlirongli our Physical Education Depart- ment, each student in the school receives some attention concerning health, :Xt the beginning of each semester every new student coming' into the high school receives a physical examination on entering the Physical Education department. In the girls' department each student is given the examination and a record of the health of each is kept on tile in the department. VVhen cases in which corrective work is needed, arise, the pupils are put into corrective classes under the direction of Miss Mildred Currier, girls' physical training instructor. Similar work in corrective-ness is carried on in the boys' department ,under Mr. Beyer for special cases. Dr. F. A. Turner, school physician, per- forms practically all of the examinations aided by Miss Helen Wray, school nurse. The school Dispensary which is kept by the school nurse, Miss VVray, handles an ap- proximate average of 40 cases of sickness each day. This department does much for the improving of health by advising parents about their children for glasses and other defects.

Laude, attempts to get a start on the regular basketball season by forming two tournaments of light and heavyweight basketball players. These leagues are high- ly important as they tend to familiarize and develop players who later have a good chance to make the regular Rab squads. The lightweights were divided into six teams with Donald Cooper, Dick Horrall, Ray Hamlin, Clarence McCue, Stanley Carl- son, and Cassius Zuck as captains. Their players weighed 125 pounds or under. Each team played seven games, meeting all of the opposing teams once, and two of the teams twice. Cooper's team, composed of Bailey and Cooper, forwards, Kreker and Phillips, guards, Krivan, center, Ralston and Jensen, substitutes, won the lightweight tournament, this team having won all of its games. Hamlin's and McCue's teams tied for sec- ond place. The good that the intramural tournaments have accomplished must be apparent to all, as Krivan is now a guard on the Rah light- weight team, Philipps is a forward on the second team, while Kreker and Carlson are playing on the third team.

Girls' Life Saving Corps The girls who are members of this organiza- tion have each taken, and satisfactorily passed the Red Cross Lite Saving Test, To the girl who is always well enough to come lo school, but is always just dead tired by the cnd of the fourth or fifth hour, the course in life- saving is invaluable. She may be tired after her hour in the pool, but it is a healthy tiredness and she soon acquires the habit of swimming and exer- i cising often. To the girl who is always in good health and peppy this course is also invaluable. She goes in swimming and practices rescuing' drowning people. A junior Life-Saver must he able to swim a lxduljh quarter of a mile, and a Senior Life-Saver must ' 1 be able to swim a half mile, Often times a girl must do better than her best on some things when she takes her test. A-Xny girl who has passed her test has, necessarily, acquired these qualities: pliysical strenglli, cooperation of body and mind, quick thinking, and perseverance.

Ferns Amazons The Amazons is an organization of girls of Rockford High School who are interested in Ath- letics. They encourage good sportsmanship not only among themselves but among all the students of the school. Their school year is divided into seasons, the nrst being indoor baseball. This is supplemented in the winter months by basketball, and in the spring outdoor baseball takes the place of basket- ball. To till in the season the club takes hikes. and eneoiirages golf, tennis, and other sports. During the football season last year they fur- nished caps for the R section of the stadium. The girls have certain training seasons the same as football and basketball players, and reeeive let- ters for work in athletics. A new system, instituted during the past year, has been the Little Sister Movement. The Sjohlt nn upperclass members take as their little sisters the freshmen and sophomore girls. -It is their duty to see that they play the game right, and that they develop a hood Sportsmanship manner.

Ideals of good sportsmanship carry over into business and professional work in ad- dition the work itself leads to physical di- rectors, community workers and public health affairs. The rules of the games taught in the gymnasium lead to loyalty, cooperation, de- pendability and leadership. Sports of the Department of Physical Education such as tennis, swimming, danc- ing, hiking, baseball and basketball all may be a worthy use of leisure time. The aims and purposes of Physical Train- ing and Athletics at Rockford High School are to build strong, healthy bodies and clean minds, thereby stimulating clean living and building character and good citizenship. Such qualities as sacrifice, self-conhdence, alertness, resourcefulness, courage, aggres- siveness, initiative, self-control, friendliness, loyalty, a spirit of fair play and mental and moral poise are developed.

The object of this department is principally vocational, al- though non-vocational courses are given in several subjects. For example, the one semester double-period course in typewriting is offered to all the students, and is of par- ticular value to those who plan to enter college. ln addition, a short course in ac- count-keeping is open to all upper class- men. The Commercial group of subjects has as its principal aim the training of pupils to enter some vocation in the business world. bookkeepers, salesmen, or any sort of of- Hce worker or business executive, receive preparation and instruction in this depart- ment. Most of the commercial subjects are taught through actual performance of the work by the pupil. A complete understand- ing of, and familiarity with, the project is brought about by the practical application of its fundamentalsg that is, etliciency and skill in the processes are acquired by prac- tice, rather than by studying the principles. IOHNSON BAILEY MALCOLM Scholarship Department Head Service 44 yd Botany Physics Cheinistry Science Department The scope of science is so great that its branches cover nearly every phase of life. Science is justly well represented in our high school by the courses in General Science, Botany, Zoology, Physiology, Phy- sics, Psychology, and Chemistry. Une important work which this depart- ment accomplishes is to make the pupil a useful member of his family and home. He learns how to help make his home efficient and comfortable, by being able to apply scientific principles in repairing or adjusting various domestic appliances. In the mat- ter of maintaining his health, the student learns the essentials of guarding against, and of curing sickness.

Radio Club The purposes of the Radio Club are to further the interest of the members in the radio, and for the study of theories of transmission, reception, and their practical applications. Lately the organization has been having code classes, which meet every Thursday night to prac- tice code tranmission and reception. The most interesting topic taken up this year was that of the low waves. The Radio Club is one of the oldest organiza- tions in Rockford High School, being organized in 1907 when radio transmission, as we know it today, was unheard of. For many years the club has been an active member of the American Radio Relay League. The elub's latest achievement has been the construction of a 100 watt broadcasting station. As soon as a license is granted the Radio Club aims to serve the coniminiity by broadcasting programs of student talent, and reports of athletic events. Many former members of the club are now licensed radio operators Heiliger OFFICERS FIRST SEMESTER OFFICERS SECOND SEMESTER President .,............,...........,,,,...,....

Chemistry Club To further and better the students' conception of the chemical world, has been the decisive aim ' of the club this past year. The meetings are alternately social and scien- tific. The social meetings have included a break- fast which was served in the log cabin at lilaek liawk Park, and a very entertaining Christmas party which was held in room 342. This year the club purchased several feet of tilm and took motion pictures, not only of experi- ments but of the Chemistry Club as at whole and its individual members. An Alumni Association was organized this year as another project of the organization. This asso- ciation holds its meetings during vacations while , - its members are home from college. This plan has never been worked out by other clubs, but it Alden is thought that it will be successful as the stn- dents are all in favor of it. The members have adopted a new constitution :ind :ts :1 resnlt there is a larger enrollment in the Chemistry Club than ever before.

Biology Club The Biology Club is an organization of the ' Science department which pertains to the study of both plant and annual life, their purpose is to further interest in zoology as well as botany. The club has, in addition to its indoor meetings, several . held trips a year. This year the members have taken trips to Blackhawk and Ingersoll parks, gathering leaves and flowers and noticing birds and insects. .Xt the indoor meetings the people are entertained by talks on botany and zoology and sometimes by a musical program. The Biology Club forms a fellowship for those who are interested in such phases of science. It aids its members to attain specimens very neces- - . sary for class use and to discover and gather many things of nature which would probably otherwise be overlooked. ln this way students learn to ap- preciate and enjoy nature more. The club has improved the appearance of the school grounds hy planting and caring for the tulip beds in trout. . i K Q J Thompson OEFlL'ERS FIRST SEMESTER OFFICERS SECOND SEMESTER President ..,.............,,.....,........

Economics aims to develop competent cit- students to be intelli- comprehension of the and the services that izenship by training 'ent workers. The aws of Iiconomics, capital and labor each perform, leads to bet- ter co-operation between employer and worker. American Government and Civics develop izen in the working and services of govern- ment, and by showing him his rights and duties toward government. Social Sciences help to discipline the memory, and to organize material. These subjects also provide a background for the study of literature and art, for travel, con- versation, and general reading, as well as furnishing a profitable use for leisure time through collateral reading, and by providing students with a taste for good literature. ln the Daughters of the American Revo- lution essay contest on the subject, Where- in Lies the Greatness of the Constitution of district prize was the United States, the won by Edward Haight, and the local prize by Franz Bodfors. 1, , is 'um competent citizens by training the future cit- ., Ki. ,L W, , ,, Rx if , if., . , .. ,t . ,U at - . iii.-fi i X FLANDERS BROVYN IIAIGIIT Scholarship Department Head XYinncr District D.

French Club The purpose of the French Club is the pro- motion of the study of the French language among students of Rockford High School. The club meets on Mondays alternating with the XValter Hampden Club. Each meeting is opened with the singing of the Marseillaise. As much of the business as possible is carried on in French and afterwards come the program and games. To promote interesting programs for the year the club has divided itself into four sections. Each section gives a program representing some province of France with customs, games, and di- versions of that sort. The provinces used were Alsace-Lorraine, Normandy, Brittany, and Picar- die. A one-act play presented by the members of a French class proved very interesting and at an- Patrick other meeting an interesting talk was given on the schools of France. The club has had a very line and benefitting year. The variety in programs drew a good membership considering the number of French students. This year the club raised enough money to buy another stadium seat. This has been a very patriotic practice of the club, and a mark of success.

Fasces Club Fasces is the name of the Latin department club, which was organized in November and has an interesting signihcance. The Fasces was a bundle of rods in the midst of which was an axe. This was borne by the lectors who preceded the high- est magistrates at Rome, as a symbol of the Fa- cisti party, as it signified a group of people work- ing together. This club is open to all students in Latin classes who have already completed one year of Latin. Its purpose is by its programs and activities to foster an interest in all things which have to do with the life and customs of ancient Rome. As the organization is still young, nothing elaborate in the way of programs has yet been at- tempted. At the Christmas meeting the Roman Fulton Saturnalia furnished the nucleus for the program and at a February meeting, St. Valentines day was commemorated by Valentines written in Latin. The Ides of March were celebrated properly by a program that deals with Julius Caesar. OFFICERS-SEM ESTER President ,,,,l,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,.,.., ,,....,,....,, ..,,,,.....,..

I llottery Painting Pen and lnk Art Department The Art Department. while it is training' every available pupil who takes an Art course, has one of its chief objectives, worthy home membership. In developing a love for the beautiful and aesthetic side of life as opposed to the sordid. ugly side it creates high ideals in general living' and thus makes the home member more worthy. A person who is worthy and co-operative in his home, the foundation of a nation, will automatically be a citizen of his coun- try. Any leisure time will be spent in try- ing' to make his surroundings, whether his own or his neighbor's or that of the com- munity as a whole. more attractive. Such use of leisure time contributes not only to l 1' mmm ,:..f'f'ff t we his happiness and contentment, but also to his character. The study of art develops accuracy and neatness which are closely related to clean- liness and therefore an adjunct to health. Accuracy and neatness are great aids to any kind of vocational work, although Art is in itself a vocatfon. It ranks very high among the Rockford High School subjects in con- tributing to the student's ability to earn his living. . Art fosters observation in its demand for representation of objects seen and composi- tions created. The faculty of observation is a great asset to correct speech and intelli- gent conversation.

Through- out the course one is taught economy in food purchase and preparation, beauty and skill in preparation, and the promotion of leisure time in the home. Clothing, perhaps a minor part of house- hold arts, also appeals strongly to the high school girl. Emphasis here, is placed upon economy, skill, beauty, health, leisure time activity, and the development of vocational and avocational attitudes. The study of millincry is taken up by the more advanced pupils of clothing.

The four courses oliered by the Industrial Department of Rockford High School are Engineering preparatory course, Technical course, Full-Time Trade course, and Print- ing course. The Engineering course offers extensive shop work along with Mechanical Drawing, Mathematfcs, Exact Science, SocialScience. lfnglish and Modern languages which make a college preparatory course. In the Tech- nical conrse, intensive training in one of the shops is given along with regular course subjects. Machine, Pattern, VVood, Elec- trical, and Automotive shop courses are of- fered. Preparation for machine shop work is made in the Full-Time Trade course. Two years of intense machine shop training are given along with all regular trade subjects. Two years of Printing are offered in the Printing course along with the regular course subjects which make a college pre- paratory course: this is also very valuable in preparing boys to enter the printing trade which can be done soon after completing the course. In the above four mentioned courses, the lndustrial Department has a good ontlfne of work which gives excellent preparation for entrance into business, trades or college.

Judging Horses Judging Hogs Pruning Trees Agriculture Department The study of agriculture in addition to training for improving home conditions is a training in occupation: however, non-voca- tional as well as vocational courses are of- fered i11 our high school. Although recita- tion and study are necessary in this subject to learn the principles of farming, the im- portant purpose of the course is the learning how to do certain things ethciently and to improve standards of farm life. Therefore, a considerable amount of time is spent in laboratory work and held trips, testing soil, pruning trees, judging live-stock, and doing other phases of farm-work. To be successful in agriculture, the farmer must realize the values and impor- tance of his chosen vocation. He should appreciate the fact that his occupation has advantages that cannot be found elsewhere, and that home life on the farm can be as pleasant and up-to-date as in the city. In the study of farm organizations and rural problems, the agriculture student is shown the importance of and opportunity for rural leadership and co-operation in solving problems such as over-production and mar- keting of products. While the less informed farmer of today is hesitant about approving any plan which calls for combined effort, the farmer of the near future realizes that by organization alone can the difficulties of the present be remedied, and he will assume his place as a leader in the community and a factor for general improvement of conditions, Wi-'EEF' if , E75 s F1 E, MQW 1 1 .

All present were unanimous in voting it the best ever in par- ties. The High School cafeteria was the scene for a banquet given by the lligh School liand for its members llecember 23, 10211. john Sabin, drum major, acted as toastmas- ter.

The editor, Robert O'Neal, is glancing over some sketches by Paul Cas- sidy. A group of reporters rush in with the news of the election of Margaret Barb- er, first woman senator of Illinois. The scene that appears before me is the last. It is a very artistic monument bear- ing the inscription: 'Here lies Martin Lund- berg who died of painter's colic.' The Seance is ended, said Benali with a smile and a bow, I believe you now know what positions some of your classmates of most lawyer. '27 are filling.

When about half way over, she swallowed a small sardine which Class Dear Folks : After much labor and waste of paper and ink we have been able to secure the opinion of the Senior Class in general upon questions that have troubled us all year. We find that Shakespeare is the favorite author Cat least most students said soj. However, we are inclined to believe that they are marking for a pull with the teach- ers. We find Ed. Haight unanimously chosen the best bluffer of '27, The question what is your first impres- sion in looking in a mirror P was answered in many ways but we found many students professing faith in the theory of evolution. ,liggs and Harold Teen are the favorite heroes of the funny paper. Jiggs is one because he's so much like people we know and Harold because he is romance personi- fied. Most of the class stated that they would rather be radio stars than film stars be- cause people can at least imagine that a radio star is handsome. Mr. Phelps is the favorite j-anitor be- cause he's so good natured and kind. The favorite indoor sport of our dear seniors varied from ping-pong to button button. We found much to our main ambition of most of to graduate. How relieved be when they read this! delight that the the Seniors was the faculty will very fewj said study, but most of them were honest and confessed that they went there for a good time and to inspire the librarian. Some of the seniors Ca they went to the library to was gasping for air. Otherwise she ate nothing. No one before has attempted to swim this channel and great honor goes to Miss O'Reagan. She is now going to tour Aus- tralia, selling knot shoe laces to help pay for the expenses of the trip. After her travels, she will attempt to swim the Eng- lish Channel. Statistics VV e find Bob Anderson elected the shieki- est Senior by a large majority, while Franz Bodfers and james McPherson are ladies' men and most dignified Senior respectively. The motto of the Senior class in general seems to be Keep Smiling and we feel sure that you'll all agree they live up to it. It was hard to decide which political party was most popular but the I. W. W. and the Democratic lead the others. The favorite way of overcoming surplus time in the Aud is catching up on lost sleep. We have at last been able to discover what students think runways are for-to slide on. Ray Bois is the favorite cadet officer be- cause he is a gentleman. We are pleased to state that the Seniors do not find exams annoying. We asked what the favorite plan for skipping was, but didn't get much response because they all declared they didn't skip. Pep is the favorite breakfast food among our upper classmen and they sure have plenty of it. Most of the Seniors prefer blondes at least all the gentlemen do. Pete Meshkoff was declared best dancer by both ladies and gents. The favorite song of our class of '27 seems to be Oh, How I Hate to Get Up In the Morning. Show Me the Way to Go Home is also very popular. Yours honestly, ROWENA JENKINS.

As we've sat here in the Aud. studying or idling as our wont, every statue, every picture, every decoration, has been made an uneraseable memory. The flag, the stage, the bulletin-if we can only remember them always. VVe have visioned our graduation-that cap and gown-over and over again. We have wondered where these people sitting around us here will be a few years from now. VVe have had some mighty good times. Parties, clubs, assemblies-all have had, in their time, our unlimited enthusiasm. For all our wisdom we still carry our troubles and questions to our advisor, We have been spurred on to the desire for a higher education. VVe have pursued college cata- logues and studied, with a beginners en- thusiasm, the details of college life. XVe have checked up our credits for the last time, and have breathed a sigh of relief or remorse at the total. Four years ago when we entered Room 104, our arms piled high with books and our hearts pounding, the Aud. was a mystic place where the school lived. We thought but vaguely of the time when we would be a part of it. Now that we have actually arrived here we have learned to conduct ourselves as our station behooves us. The resulting close associations have developed in us a finer sense of co-operation, dependa- bility, and leadership that will help us live the life that is to come.-A Dignified Senior.

Hurst Koch CAdvisorJ Fulton Auditorium juniors At last we're here! And what a happy band we were when our credits checked our right-so that we could be here in the And. All Juniors are as interested in everybody and everything as they are in life. They feel the yearning to lead instead of follow, to fill leisure hours with clubs and class activities-especially that great and absorb- ing event-the junior Prom. All the plan- ning and plotting for it is a joy they have long contemplated. They, the Junior Class, are responsible for its success or failure! be that as it may. They begin to feel their individuality, for they have had an alluring taste of leadership and power. This is the third lap of their Q ,A career and it must be covered in proper style. All the qualities of their personality are employed in the developing of their careers. The spots in this old And. are already familiar, and they tread its floor with a feeling of belonging here. So much hap- pens every day-they have the Seniors to watch, and perhaps take some of them for examples. They are a minor element this year, but wait until next! They still have innumerable ambitions. and it's the atmosphere of this study hall that has helped, and will help them to ma- terialize. -Thoughts of a Fresh Junior. - P11 V4 Y . , 1 Kintzel Swanson Davey H381 -..-.fy -.., , 1 A 1 K. .x Honor Students X 'lv ,J .. l f' t ksgkl, . ,, , A E iw, we? it at WS.

We're a sort of mixture in here. lt seems as if we almost get enough credits -but not quite. Part of us are Sophomores who haven't enough credits to be Juniors, while the rest of us are juniors with not enough credit to be in the Auditorium. XVe have a pretty good time though, and learn a few things-we aren't dormant all the tfme. NVe are more independent this year, for as time has rolled on we have found ourselves miraculously more efficient and more able to think for ourselves, although our advisor is still directing and marshalling us. VVe have been forming our character sitting' right here in this study hall, for the various activities have unwittingly made themselves indelible on our minds. Those school leaders and those positions which we have long admired are within our reach and we may work and win them. We have joined clubs and have put into their life all the peut-up ambitions we have known pre- viously. VVe have learned not only the meaning of scholarship, but the meaning of life, which we have gathered from our contact with our classmates.-Mr. Slll. tsl' .

Af I Honor Students 3 Allen Lrmgwill KAdvisorJ Schroeder Study Hall 322 All Sophomores look back on their Fresh- man year with a mixture of feelings. They are grateful that they are at last started on their career, and relieved that they are now ready to take their place among their class- mates. Room 322 belongs to them now-to study, to play, and to worry in. They ply Miss Langwill with questions, but they are more intelligent questions than they asked last year. Some of them have lived a year within the bounds of R. H. S. This year they have joined clubs-and what energetic members they are! They are not yet as if Y . H Q i blase as the upper-elassmen, but they are becoming more polished. They still study earnestly in their quest for good grades, and work faithfully to be on the Honor Roll. They are still afraid of their teachers, and still afraid of-that awful word4 flunking. They receive con- sultations with their advisor soberly and with a will to study and do better. lt is a relief to belong to the upper part of the under-classmen of the school, al- though they are not as sophisticated as their name seems to imply.-A Sophomore. ix. 1 .

Every morning during the first hour the band meets to practice. On formal occasions now, the red and white uniforms are laid aside for the new uniforms. These uniforms are dark trimmed in silver. The initial UR set in the school colors of red and black is on the breast. Crimson ties are worn as part of the uniform and white silk breast-cords. The whole unit in full dress is splendid and inspiring. The hand is a big factor in school life and also that of the community. It gives its time and music most willingly to football and basketball games, assemblies, R. O. T. Li., and concerts. The city uses the band on holidays for parades and programs. Luncheon clubs are often favored by their appearance and civic clubs take pride in sending them to their conventions out of town. Last july when they played at the Elks convention at Chicago they were highly commended. Mr. john T. Haight, director, not only trains the boys in music but also inculcates in them many fine traits of character and ideals of citizenship. H501 t . .wa - -M he , ,, 3 gf . ,, .-., 'g 'rw-.

Fredlmrg, Boys' Glee Club The Boys' Glee Club, as the name implies, is composed ot male voices which weave into song all the moods known to man. In this club all the members work closely together under the leadership of Miss Dorothy Reynolds, director of the club. The members, in order that the club may be 11 suc- cess, are urged to work with unity as their standzlrd. Another quality that the members have acquired during then' membership in the Club has been patience. They have aelneved their success only througxh patience. The operetta, 'Twas liver Thus, which was given by the Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs, as a delightful portrayal of modern college life, was presented at the Rockford Theater, April 22 and 23. Those in the cast were: The spoiled son of a rich man, Charles Kauffman: a serious and profound person, Allie Sharp: a happy-go-lucky, john Danforth, and a fat, good-natured being, john Sabin. Other parts were played by Edward Greenlee, Leonard Block and Miss Reynolds. Advisor Cheger Snyder. The club sang at the Teachers' Institute which was held at the junior Roosevelt Iligh School in October. On December 6, they furnished with the aid of the Girls' Glee Club a very pleasing assembly program.

Two representatives from each study - hall, and three Seniors make up each council. Each Friday during the eighth hour the councils meet. Besides making social regulations and dealing with problems of the students. they nominate the student mayors of the assemblies. This year the councils have worked more together. In previous years they met separately, but it has proved more successful to work as one. The advisors suggested this change in view of the fact that the problems of each council were more in common. The main work of the councils has been the hand-book. This was completed during the second semester, The pur- pose of the hand-book is to give pupils and teachers in- formation about the school. One editor and three sub-edi- tors directed the work on the book. It is divided into three sections: Administration, Curriculum, and Extra Curriculum. Mr. Conklin. Advisor The first department tells of the principal and his assistant, the dean of women, and the six advisors as the directing force of the school. Then the faculty is next listed. Following them is the general informa- tion about the courses of study attendance, regulations, lockers, and other important things of the school. The clubs and organizations are then explained.

In the 19' twenty-five schools, the dairy and judges had nearly perfect scores. The purpose of this team is to train the students in the selection of the best and most profitable types of livestock, and also to stimulate an interest and a desire within the student to possess a better grade of livestock. Considerable interest is also aroused in the department in the competi- tion for an opportunity to make the annual trip to the State College of Agriculture to compete in the State Live- stock Judging Contest. The three teams which are sent are the Fat-Stock Judging Team, Dairy judging Team and Poultry Team. Practice judgfng is secured in field trips to noted breed- ers, many of whom are fortunately within a short distance of Rockford, The Shallenberger Farms, near Argyle, and Mrs. Mcdill Mcl,'ormick's Rock River liarms are among those visited in the past year. These trips are of value to the student for the educa- tion he receives in becoming familiar with such fine live- stock and in talking to some of the leading breeders of live- stock not only of the community, but also the nation as well. Ill has not won high honors in recent years, yet their show- 26 State Contest, in competition with about one hundred and fat stock teams placed within the top third, while the sheep H601 fx MILITARY s 4-L ,f ., T T. iptain Dixon Top Rowifaptain Dixon, Sergeant Perry.

Office Staff Xyhen the Junior Unit of the Reserve Officers Training Corps was organized in Rockford High School, few had a vision of its future accomplishments and awards. ln its first year it was accredited with an Honor School Rating. which it has maintaned every year since, making it an Honor School for six consecutive years, an honor surpassed hy no school and equalled by only one other, in the entire United States. The unit is confined to infantry instruction, having as its instructors, Captain XYiley l.. Dixon, retired, Professor of Military Tactics and Science, United States Army, and Sergeant George D, Perry, IJ. E. M. l., United States .'Xrmy. The unit is composed of four companies, A, li, C and IJ, each consisting, on the average, of seventy men. Each company is made up of two platoons, forming a staff of three commissioned officers, one captain and two lieu- tenants. for each company. The battalion commander, or major, is chosen from the captains, being given a post of honor, as well as responsibility. As all the appointments n e made with the consent of the principal, those are chosen who are thought to be good examples ol citwcnship and character, and good models tor those lower in rank to follow. Xs a summary of each year's work, a lfield Meet is held at lfairgrounds Park. in which thc companies vie with other for honors in company, platoon. squad, and individual drill. lor help along the social lines. five girls are chosen as sponsors, one for each company and one as a sponsor of the battalion. They are very active and hard working, especially at thc timc of the Military Hop, being responsible in a large way. for the success of this party, which is considered one of the best parties of the year. 11621 i l l 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 11111 Row-Rt-i11y, N1tw1114uft', Huis. 111311111-s. 1fI'!ll11i, llytlv, N1c1'111-1's11i1, Fringrr 1 11111111111 Ruw- N111t1111s-r. 1'1111'1111111', .Xrfs1r11i11, Ififla. 1'11-i1i1g1'1'.

' 11671 Frank Dobson 191 1-1927 Cadet Sergeant Frank Dobson was one of the best cadets the corps has ever had. He was always properly uniformed, court- eous and cheerful. lf there was extra duty to be performed, he could always be counted upon to volunteer for it and to do the work in a manner reflecting credit upon the corps. His passing' is sincerely regretted by every member of the corps. VVILEY I.. DIXON, Captain, U. S. A., Retired, P. M. S, H T. Frank Dobson was a loyal member of the 8-5-3 Club. The club could always depend on him when he was given a task to do. He was always willing and ready to put fun and pep into the meetings. He was treas- urer of the club last year when the 8-5-3 put on the Visitors' Night Exhibit when keeping accounts meant a great deal of work. His ability to have a good time and still to accomplish what he undertook is greatly missed by the club. DOROTHY PETTI BONE, President, Frank Dobson, a loyal member of the Philomathean Literary Society. is sincerely missed by his fellow members. He was an honorable member who gave time and thought to the activities of the organization. We feel sure that he has reaped his reward. Let Thy will he done, on earth as it is in heaven.

Candidates eligible to election must be the first fourth in their respective classes in scholarship and have spent at least one year in the local high school. Eligible names may be proposed to the electing council by members of the fac- ulty. Of the names proposed the electing council may elect not more than fifteen per cent of the IZA class. not more than ten per cent of the 12B class, nor more than five per cent of the second semester juniors. The electing council announces its decisions at an assembly in early June, at which the chosen candidates are called to the stage and formally notified of the honor accorded them. The Rockford chapter of the National Honor Society was established in 1925, when fifty-eight candidates were elected. ln 1926 fifty-three pupils were made members. The members of this society are representative of the highest qualities of high school stu- its and as such are recognized because ul the tour qualities: Service, Scholztrship, I.eadt-rslnp, md Cliaracter.

Thrift The purpose of the banking system in Rockford High School, improving each year to a satisfactory amount, has now reached its best altitude since its beginning. The pur- pose of the banking in the Rockford High School is to in- terest and teach more pupils the value of saving money by systematic banking. A plan has been in motion these five years of banking in Rockford High School, by which the students may bank each Tuesday in every first hour class. Cashiers are ap- pointed or elected by the class students and teacher. These cashiers enter the money, by recording in the student's bank book the amount deposited. Cashiers then make out reports as to how much is deposited and how many are present. Per cents of each room are determined,. many making one hun- dred per cent. Keen competition has been experienced to see which room or study hall can keep one hundred per cent for the longest period of time, and which room banks the most money. Study hall competition has been very keen. The advisors have offered prizes to their groups if they keep a record of one hundred per cent for a longer period of time than the other study halls. The banking' started in Rockford High School in 1922 and the results in five years have totaled to SS-11,137.40. In 1922 the school banked 33,937,713 in 1926, SFll,332.71, thereby making a large increase. Mr. Trautmzm, Advisor Students pictured above have made unusually good records as cashiers.

There is no longer any reason for being satisfied with a Machine which only adds. The SUNDSTRAND subtracts and multiplies as speedily as it adds. The Sundstrand has only 10 figure keys, which permits figure writing to be done with greater speed and accuracy. The simplicity, plus other important features, such as auto- matic shift multiplication, one hand control, automatic column selection, direct subtraction and full credit balance feature, have won it recognition in the office appliance field all over the world. It is the modern adding machine. The Sundstrand is low in price, it will pay for itself within a short time on the errors it will save you on your figure work. Let us demonstrate in your office, it will place you under no obligation. There is a model for every business, large or small.

In time he overtopped them all. The learner rises above his competitors in all life's activities. He masters conditions because he learns all about them. We sit at the feet of the public wherever we have Stores, learning and posting ourselves of the needs of home and person as best we can. Diligently applying ourselves to the responsible task of providing those needed when needed is the virtue to which may be traced much of the extraordinary develop- ment of this Company.

Main Street lZ4U1 'env An Appreciation -.+:w:++- Every year the advertisers of Rockford take a keen interest in helping the staffs of the R. H. S. Annual make a prize winning yearbook. This interest and patronage have been large factors in the success of the Annual in past years and are keenly appreciated by the editors and staff of this book. They feel that this gratitude can be ex- pressed only by patronage to the advertisers and by urging their friends to stand by the men of this city who have aided them so faithfully in making a book of memories. Others have helped make possible the organization of this book who are not on the staff. To those very valuable contributors the staff expresses its deepest gratitude: Rockford Illustrating Company, The Bliss Printing Com- pany, Pearson Studio, The United States Art Binder Com- pany, Miss Lenore Smith of the Art Department and the following students of her department: Hazel Anderson, Elizabeth Rasmussen, Frances Crossan, Margaret Ryder, Alta Duval, Raymond Bois, Lois Savage, Mary Frances Pahaly, Florine Hinckley, Edna May Sullivan, Evelyn Drake, Wesley Soderstrom, Marion Springer, Bernice Collier, Gladys Peterson, Vincent Sheldon, Wentworth Lobdell, Robert Beier, and Vanietta Knott.
