Life is Progressive g Progress is the keynote of the modern world. Never before in the history has man- kind been so progressive. New inventions, development of mental alertness, and the achievement of higher standards all tend to send the world forward to a goal never be- fore accomplished. just as the field of science, with its marvelous inventions has pro- gressedg just as the field of business has gone forward with amazing results, so has the field of education advanced with astonishing rapidity. Rockford high school has long justly prided itself on its ability to keep up with the times. VVhenever a new and more efficient method of accomplishing this aim has been introduced, Rockford high school has always been among the first to adopt it. A recent introduction of this sort is the Home Room System, which has two distinct advantages: namely, personal and administrative. The small group in each room enables each student to come in close contact and form friendships with several students whom he ordinarily would not meet. Where the administration of routine is concerned, details such as notices, banking, and making out of electives are efficiently and quickly taken care of with little confusion. Another feature has beene introduced recently in the sixty-minute period of study. Daily proving its reliability and efficiency the advantage of supervised study is proving priceless to the student, and is enabling the more brilliant student to progress in accord- ance with his own ability, while the slower student has the opportunity to study with his instructor. The teacher of today realizes that as the pupil progresses, he must also. As a result of this understanding, revision of the courses of study has occupied the attention of the teachers who study and report their work in a method of practical application. The world will continually progress and Rockford high school with itg but always the school will hold fast to the fundamental truths, beautiful ideals, and traditions that have so long represented it. 1.

The speed with which civilization is advancing demands workers who are trained and who know their work so that they can carry it through in a depend- able, sure manner. There is no time for mistakes and inefficiencyg there is not time to stop and retrace steps, everything must be up-to-the-minute so that the machinery of life may move without a single cog slipping. Realizing the importance and necessity of these things, the school of today is continually seeking to improve its curriculum so that the students will be better trained and ready for their work in the world. Rockford Senior high school is always striving to give its students better training themselves for their work. It is con- subjects and enabling the students to and more advantageous opportunities to prepare tinually planning new courses, introducing new participate in training for any work in which they may be interested. Whether the future school offers preparation for it. Under lies in an office or in a workshop, Rockford high the College Preparatory Curricula there is the General, Engineering, and Teachers' train- ing courses, all taking in every subject necessary to this training. Courses are given that will enable the student to enter any college in the United States. The world has need not only of college meng but also of the men and women who can enter work in the business world doing routine work and turning out the products of the shops, Realizing this, Rockford high school has prepared a Practical Arts Curricula under which Commercial, Home Economics, and Industrial Arts courses are found, each including every phase of that special work. One of the recent additions to this course is the Half-Time Cooperative Industrial Trade which is proving most efficient and prac- tical. Under this plan, any boy who has finished his Sophomore year of high school work has the opportunity to work half time for pay as an apprentice in industrial plants while completing his last two years' of high school work. He works twelve months with two weeks of vacation alternating his apprentice work and academic course every two weeks. Thus at the end of two calendar years he is entitled to a high school diploma and has a year of apprentice work in the trade he has chosen. For the students who are interested in music and art, the Fine Arts Course is pro- vided, enabling them to study extensively in these lines. Students of Rockford high school are preparing themselves for work in the future world by studying the subjects enumerated above. The school is endeaving to turn out students who are not only good, but good for something, and to provide the world with sound, safe thinkers and workers making it a better and more beautiful place in which to live. -H 'li MM Ca 4:24 Aff!

Reasons for the turnover listed in the order of greatest fre- quency are inefficiency, found to'be lacking suf- hcient experience, lack of personal interest in the welfare of the business, dishonesty, marriage, and salary increase elsewhere. Rockford high school Commercial department received a great honor when Mr. Chester Bailey was elected vice-president of the public school commercial teachers at the convention of the Na- tional Commercial Teachersl Federation held in Chicago. Mr. Bailey acted as chairman of several meetlngs at the convention held in Des Moines, Iowa, in December holidays, 1930. Mr. Harrison Trautmann, instructor of account- ing, also received honor when part of his book- keeping forms, and book in making, was copy- righted, and used in Rockford Senior and East Aurora high schools. Mr. l-lenry Richert and Mr. Trautmann as- sumed entire responsibility for the Commercial department assembly. They selected a cast, and put on a play to show the value in a commercial education.

In the clothing courses the aim is to teach the planning of a becoming wardrobe as well as the actual construction of garments. All girls want clothes which are as pretty and be- coming as possible, but they frequently choose wrongly because they do not know how to choose. liven though a girl may purchase all her clothing instead of doing her own sewing, the clothing courses are worth while for her in enabling her to know how to choose more wisely. The change of the class period from an hour and half to sixty minutes has necessitated the elimination of many construction problems leaving increased time for planning and selecting appropriate clothing and accessories. In the foods courses, while the aim is to teach the students to cook, encouraging the desire to l91l eat the right kinds of food and to learn to like new foods are stressed. This knowledge is needed by the student going to college as well as the one going directly into the husinessg perhaps more so, since the college student is forced to choose all his own meals while the young worker is still eating his breakfast and dinners at home. The most striking change in the course of study is the addition of the course in Foods for boys which has proved extremely popular. Many have asked how the boys get along in a foods labora- tory and the answer is that they do just as well as girls. They are quick and energetic and they secure good resultsg they do not burn any more food than the girls nor do they have a greater proportion of failures. They make more no-iseg and when the windows are open, they are a greater source of amusement to the hard-working students across the courtyard in room 222. The Seco club, a club sponsored by this de- partment, won second place in the Annual assembly this year with a little skit entitled Just Looking. :Xt Thanksgiving and Christmas the members pre- pared baskets of food for needy families. warn .. . .L ... - - W. , I Q ,L ' , 1 rg , - v iv , , . , .. 4 1 . ..a-1,1 1 K V . .uf - - ,- e..sf':f,-f,-itz' t. ,- as ll , -5'. , A yi A ' ' ' V, W 4 .. - QS Tia,-if . s '. . kv Qi- .. s .gf Q Q - A ' A ' svaywa ,J sl If ' I . 3'- F- it DEPARTMENTS 'A study of the prin- ciples of the gasoline Cll- gine, the function, care, and repair of various parts of the car, battery, ignition, and motor re- pair work is ollered to boys enrolled in Auto Mechanics.

ROBERT SHUMWAY Head Industrial Department The aim of the courses offered in the Industrial department is to prepare for college entrance or for definite vocations and for efficient industrial citizenshipg thus extending to them the oppor- tunity for specialization during the period of sec- ondary education. Vocational and educational guidance is carried on within the departmentg class- room instruction includes talks on shop require- ments, labor problems, and industrial trends. Col- lege entrance requirements and courses are also discussed. A complete set of general catalogue and bulletins is available at the Industrial office. Courses in machine trade and pattern making offer preparation for industrial efficiency to young people who never find an opportunity to fit them- selves for a specific occupation beyond the high school. The enrollment for the second semester totaled seven hundred and twenty boys, and in addition to this number a few girls enrolled in the drafting courses. An outstanding increase of enrollment in the printing courses necessitated the organization of three classes and indications point to a full day program in printing. One of the largest tasks the department has undertaken this year was the reorganization and putting the courses of study in printed form. Pre- paration is being made for an exhibit of shop work to be displayed in the city and later to be exhibited at the state fair in Springfield. 'U' l 921 Two school clubs are sponsored by this depart- ment: the junior Engineering Society organized for the cooperative class, and the Aviation club open to any student interested in areonautics. The department was represented at the Chicago meeting of the State Vocational Society, and the American Vocational Association holding its yearly meeting in Milwaukee. Some of the outstanding projects undertaken in the class rooms this year were: the printing of the Rockford Senior high school handbook in cooperation with the school printer, Mr. Clarence Sullivan. Members of the Architectural Drawing class designed and built a house scale. A produc- tion problem for the department was a block printing press. A gasoline motor designed by a student was made in the department. The electric classes installed a spraying apparatus in the wood shop as one of their special projects. Desirable results which have grown out of work in this department include: a general industrial education to a large number of students, prepara- tion for vocational entrance, provision for many more to enter further vocational training through apprenticeship and cooperative training, and pre- paration for entrance into technical schools and en- gineering departments of universities. 4p5,s-t X ,,,V if I if, ffyf - yf if f ,fy ff ,I yf 1 f f Kf A K 4 W ,l '- , m. 0 ' -'..-,,i -- so a5 if Ml 1, 71.1 l-U 'Ti il 55 M will 4 . ., 3 ' '1 I N ' 1 Q K L 'Nix if r .

Each year students completing the work of the department have found remunerative occupation where their art training has been a real asset. These students have thus continued training through practical experience. Others have gone to art schools or to colleges for further specializa- tion. Some of the fields that require an art intel- ligence today are architectural designing, furniture designing, interior decoration, civic planning, show card writing, advertising, outdoor advertising, illustration painting, as a profession or a leisurc time pleasure. so that he may recognize and enjoy the beautiful things about him and gain an The department frequently exhibits the work of its pupils at the National Arts organization meetings. Rockford is represented at these na- tional and sectional conferences regularly at least by the head of the department and as often as possible by instructors in the department. An exhibit from the National school exhibit held in Minneapolis last May and the many splen- did exhibitions in the fields of painting, photo- l94l through the courtesy of the Rockford Art Asso- ciation have been sources of inspiration to art students. All of these contacts keep the depart- ment in touch with the trend of art education. Students with others of high school level en- tered in the competition sponsored by the Com- munity Fund for a campaign poster to advertise the work of that organization. The Senior high school has won high awards for several years. The Commercial Art classes have designed and ar- ranged store windows to emphasize the work of the Day Nursery. General Art HI has assisted with the development of the Rockford high school Annual under Miss Marion Newberry's direction, while the advanced General Art classes have de- signed and painted the scenery for the annual filee club operetta under Miss Floy Dentler's guidance. Two unusual screens showing creative ability were designed and painted by students in Room 405. ln so far as the instructional program will permit, requests for posters for school activi- ties are made. Frequently business men call for the services of an art student. Art Appreciation course is planned to engender a love of beauty, to develop good taste and to enrich the lives of students who never will be workers in the arts. 1 51 DEPARTMENTS 5 5.2 The study of the Bible enables the student to understand the thought, feel the beauty and spir- itual inspiration of the masterpieces that appeal to his interests and needs.

Four objectives, namely, training all pupils in such use of effective English, in oral and written expression as shall prepare him for the actual contacts of business college, and social life of the adult world: giving him a knowledge of the great masters and their literary worksg developing a sense of judg- ment of literary values so that pupils may be able to discriminate between the worth while and the worthless in literature, and inculcating the desire to read good books are the predominating aims of the department. One great achievement of the year past was the introduction of drill books, compiled by the teach- ers into 10B, l1B, and IZA English courses. Along with the reorganization of the composition courses, was the development of journalism courses to give two semesters of News VVriting.

Many local au- thorities on books addressed the various English classes during the week and an extensive reading followed the suggestions of worthwhile books. A worthy exhibit of the creative work of the Rock- ford high school was made at the National Coun- cil of English Teachers at Cleveland, Ohio, which Miss john attended. My Singing Soul, pub- lished by they Rab Authors club, and containing the most outstanding creative work of students in verse, has won the National Honor Rating twice with very favorable commendation in Na- tional reviews. The A. B. L. Literary society presented a bust of Emily Dickinson to the school. Several honors have been won by students en- rolled in the English department, among them being Richard Congleton's verse which has been printed in the National high school verse maga- zine, The Gleamf' and prizes won by two stu- dents who memorized over one thousand lines of poetry: Vera Gravitt, for fifteen hundred lines, and Donovan Pratt for twelve hundred lines. Co- operation with community chest officials, VVinne- bago County bankers, and the Plant and Shrub society has resulted in the writing of essays on practical subjects. 1 7 ..

Reading from right to left: john Holm- quist, Everett llendrick- son, and james Han- cock, JULIA SHAFER Head Foreign Language Department Four. foreign languages are taught at the Rock- ford high school, namely, Latin, German, French, and Spanish. All languages are offered for a period of two years, and Latin and French may be studied for three or four years as the student desires. There are four objectives of the language de- partment: first, to teach the student to read the foreign language, second, to teach the student to speak the language to a certain degreeg third, to give the student an insight into the history, character, and custo-ins of the people Whose lan- guage he is studying: fourth, to promote interna- tional understanding by becoming familiar with other nationalities. The outstanding project of the students and teachers in the department is the foreign corre- spondence with students in Germany, France, and Spain. Each student who desires to write to a foreign friend, is given the name of a foreigner who is studying English. Then the local students write letters in English to those across the sea. The students in Germany, France, and Spain write their letters in their native tongue. This gives the students much practice in translation of the foreign language which he is learning. The department cooperates with the community in several ways. Several Firms and individuals l96l receive letters from foreign business houses, and are unable to translate the messages. The letters are sent to the language department at the Rock- ford high school where students and faculty mem- bers translate the material. Holiday time the lan- guage clubs sent baskets to the needy families of the city, and much was done to entertain the unfortunate children. There have been a few changes in the course of study. The so called commercial Spanish has been taken out of the curriculum, and more read- ing of Spanish literature has been substituted. A third year course of Spanish is in the process of construction. A new first year French book has been introduced into the French courses, and this has necessitated a change in first year French. In French III and IV Le Chevalier de Maison Rouge by Dumas, Colomba,', and Labiche's t'Le Voyage de M. Perichonu are read by the students. L'Anglais Tel Qu'on le Parle, Mlle. De la Seiglieref' La Perle None, and Le Secret de l'Ftang Noir are studied in French VL Among the German books read are: UDas Peterlel von Nurnhe-rg, L'Arrabbiata, Germelshausen, and Pole Poppenspalerf' The following classics are read in the Spanish classes: 'Fl Pajaro Verde, Dona Clarine-s, and MFI Capitan Venenof' i 1951 i .

Before the in- troduction of the new curriculum, students were required to study Geometry I and ll before they Algebra lll is recommended to all stu- l97 FF! ,H could graduate: at present these courses are purely an elective subject. Solid Geometry is taken by those students who intend to follow engineering as a profession. Almost all good students who like mathematics and those who intend to attend college and take up engineering, study Trigo- nometry and College Algebra. Many interesting projects and experiments have been performed by teachers and their students in the department. Students in the trig classes have measured the height of the school Hag pole: and they have also computed the width of the Rock river by using 'l'rig'onometry. Home made instru- ments of mathematics have been made by studentsg and in Solid Geometry classes, geometric designs found in snowflakes, crystals, and linoleum have been drawn. Much scale drawing, which helps the student to become accurate in measurements and computation, has been done. Une of the greatest changes in the course of study has been to eliminate the deadvvood in mathematics. Klemorized definitions, non-essen- tial terms, non-csscntial concepts, and non-essential computations have been dropped by the changes which have been made. The metric system and its advantages have been introduced into the cur- riculum. 1 T Advanced classes in baseball and basketball ar- it .Q ilk - ,I . ' Y .:,l I 'fi i' if , t tl , A T I -z 74 .

MILDRED CURRIER Girls Physical Education Physical education is for the sake of mental and moral culture as well as for physical train- ing. It is to make the intellect, feelings, and will more vigorous, sane, and resourceful, to instruct American citizens in the fundamental forms of play activity so that each may have an active part in Americas play spirit' and to make healthful living a habit without over attention to self. llue to the new sixty minute period, this depart- ment has found more time to develop programs for leadership, stressing, in addition to responsi- bility such characteristics as mental alertness, at- tention to instruction, the importance of well groomed appearance, and the misfortune attending the prevalent use of alibis. Girls' Physical Education has cooperated with the Wiiiliebago County Anti-Tuberculosis Society in the spread of information and instruction re- garding the safety measures necessary in guarding against the spread of tuberculosis. It also con- ducted a campaign to increase protection against smallpox recording credit for all those who brought vaccinations up to date. Two new swimming classes were added to the department schedule this year to accommodate the electives. June graduates the largest Red Cross Life Saving class in the past ive years. 98 ranged and conducted tournaments in both sports, playing their final games after school each season, Students in Home Hygiene course made field trips to places of interest such as the City Health llepartment laboratory, Visiting Nurses' Associa- tion clinic, and other public health agencies, Last fall the class visited the exhibition held here in connection with the Mississippi Valley Conference on Tuberculosis and the Stite, Nurses' Convention. Some of the students wrote and pre- sented a play, f'Open Sesame, at a District Nurses' Meeting. This dealt with the desirability of enrollment as a Red Cross nurse.

A good citizen is trained in school to participate in activities which will in later life aid him in taking his proper place as a member of a group. All experts agree that a good citizen should feel responsibility to- ward the various groups of which he is a member, varying from the immediate home circle to inter- national relations. A good citizen should under- stand the contributions of the past to present social, political, and economic conditions, and in know- ing how these conditions came to be, he can better grapple with modern problems. ln understanding that peoples of other races have made contribu- tions to us, he is more tolerant toward their ap- parent different view points and as a result he postpones comment until he at least knows their side of debatable questions. VVho is there who would maintain that a good citizen should be igno- rant of past events of his own country? A fair question may arise on the practicality of such a course. True enough, such courses with few exceptions apparently do not produce tangible gains that can be measured in dollars and cents. Un the other hand, what is the value of such gain in a republic if the owners of such cannot exer- 09 cise intelligently the privileges granted them or perform the duties required of them in the various group contacts? NYhat is the value of being an outcast? Moreover, is it practical to acquire a set of habits and attitudes which will make one a de- sirable tneinber of any social, economic or political group to which he must belong? Un the other cal in the days of reasonably priced transportation to be able to enjoy travel to a fuller extent because one understands the significance of places visited? ls it practical in the days of superfiuity of per- iodicals to read intelligent current events in daily papers and magazines? ls it practical in the day of radio to understand and judge what one hears? The department sponsored the Lincoln Day As- sembly program in which the two Seniors who have had the highest scholarship in Social Science sub- jects presented talks on the life of Lincoln. An unusual feature of the program was the guest of honor, the commander of the G, A. R., Mr. Henry MacFarland, who has shaken hands with Mr. Lincoln. 55' - gt . . qw ' -: 4 0 25' vo .

Students who work in any part of this department have broadened in- terest and increased knowledge in the particular field studied. Botany and Zoology students be- come acquainted with many animals and plants, become familiar with their habits of life, and see how they benefit or harm mankind, They also have a better understanding and regard for all life. A knowledge of the fundamental principles of phy- sics and chemistry is obtained by those students enrolled in the physics or chemistry courses. The courses also aim to show the application to many industrial processes and the relation to everyday life. Carl Aagaard and llarold Xelson were each awarded nine books in assembly for their out- standing work in making commercial products. For the same kind of work, Lorraine Lofdahl was presented a junior Academy of Science pin. 'Various projects in the subject of electricity have been carried on by students in the physics classes. The winter feeding of birds was an important project performed by students in zoology. Feed- ing stations were erected and the members in charge of the project gave systematic attention to provision of proper food for winter birds, both 11001 the permanent and occasional visitors. Botany classes chose a forest survey of Vlfinnebago Coun- ty as their special project for the past year, The chemistry department and some of the botany and zoology students are affiliated with the lllinois State Academy of Science. Several of the chemistry workers contributed articles for the tfhristmas number of the magazine published by the Academy. At the meeting of the entire state Academy of Science. at Bloomington in May, Rockford was awarded a silver loving cup as first prize for the best projects exhibited at the meet. The biology department has given advice re- garding the extermination of insect pests in home and garden, the extermination of weeds. sources of information for care of trees and shrubs, and identification of plants. Material from the de- partment was loaned to Boy Scouts for their an- nual exhibition. The physics department has made tests for specific gravity, purity of metals, and insulation tests this last year. Many visits to industrial concerns have been made by the pupils in the chemistry department. ln the laboratory various commercial projects have been made. The work included almost everything from tanning of skins to varnishes and silvering of mirrors. Life is Dqnamic H 'M Ckvo G 5 Life is Dqnamic Education today'must be fvital, alive, and active. No longer does it follow the old time worn grooves of conservative academic training. No longer is education concerned only with the fundamentals of the three R's. A change has been made in the old discipline. Today we find education holding interest and becoming deeply concerned with social and industrial problems of our era. Today the student does not only learn from his text, but also from outside contact with his fellow students. Rockford high school has provided a wonderful opportunity for students to reap the benefits of social contact through its numerous clubs and organizations which relate to every phase of work undertaken in the classes. These clubs are showing value in the results of their work and accomplishments. They closely adhere to the course of work to which they are related, yet they give a freer aand wider scope of action. Realizing the necessity of keeping an even balance between work and play, most of the clubs have made certain requirements for admittance and for retaining membership. These require- ments are perfectly fair, and of high standard, resulting in a happy medium of scholastic and social work. Such clubs as 8-5-3, Amazons, Walter Hampden, French, Spanish, and Biology, and all the others listed in this division of the book deal with the fundamental school courses as English, social science, physical education, languages, science, fine arts, industrial, commercial, and home economics. They hold special benefits for any student interested in any of the courses. For those who are interested in the fascinating work of publications, Rockford high school offers an opportunity for the student to work on the school paper and yearbook staffs. Those who work with the publications learn the necessity of getting work in on time, and develop the trait of self-reliance along with a happy, interesting course of study. Clubs are both practical and interesting, putting a new stimulus into life, making it worth while and happier, taking away the ordinary routine of daily work, making one realize that knowledge applied develops interest in a study which might be disliked on its mere merits. - 's 11 i ,pt ':A. - .,, .,, hwy' -, , 1.-.

The purpose of this organization is to interest the members in drama as a form of literature and the present day theater. Forty-tive members are allowed active membership. In order to become a member of this club, one must try out by giving a short reading or taking part in a play. A committee of ten members judges the applicants, and those who pass the requirements are initiated in a novel and traditional manner. This year the programs of the club have been arranged for the entire semester, and printed forms have been given to the members. In the first semester a group of members pre- sented Worsel Flummeryf' a one-act play by A. A. Milne. The cast and a director took charge of the production of the play with the assistance of Miss Edna Youngquist, adviser. During the second semester, Miss Doris Morgan, assistant adviser, directed a play, Spreading the News,'l by Lady Gregory, for one of the meetings. Members of the cast were selected by tryouts. Those who took part were: Mrs. Fallan, Sarah Jane Jensen, Mrs. Tarpy, Jean Birdg Mrs. Tully, Ruth Eastwood, Magistrate, Douglas Morrison, Bartley Fallan, Milo Pulling Jack Smith, Harold Ackerg Tim Casey, Robert Richards, Shauen Early, Paul Pirrellog james Ryan, john Colverg and Policeman, Kenneth Lofgren. The tradition of making pom-poms for the outstanding football game of the season was continued this year. The colors were sold at the Rockford-Elgin night game. The rally of the Walter Hampden club also worked up en- thusiasm for the football games. On the stage, the members portrayed part of the stadium at a game. At Christmas time they played Santa Claus to a needy family, by presenting them with a dinner and some staple foods. 'ARiders to the Sea, by Synge, was presented at the Knox College dramatic contest in Galesburg, Illinois, last May.

Each girl who wishes to be- come a member, must have completed at least one semester of work in the home economics department in ninth grade at Junior high with an average of C or above. The name of the club is derived from the first two letters of sewing and cooking. Miss Helen Peterson, head of the Home Economics depart- ment, gave a talk on her trip to Europe at one of the meet- nigs. A musical skit, just Looking, community singing, and Christmas carols, at the meeting before Christmas, were some of the programs enjoyed by the club the past year. At the initiations held i11 Septen1ber, 1930, and February, 1931, potluck suppers were held. Seco club took part in the Annual staff assembly on De- cember 15, 1930. A style display entitled, just Looking for a Dress, was presented by the group. The club was awarded second prize of five dollars for the best skit presented on the program. At Thanksgiving and Christmas the club gave two baskets of food to poor families. A Christmas grab bag party was enjoyed by all members at the holiday meeting. On March Z, the club sponsored a sale of candy which had been made by girls in the club. The Seco girls assisted at the R club football banquet held in December, by serving. Each year since the first Owl- Annual Dinner-Dance in 1926, members of the Seco club have served the banquet. Those who served this year included: Muriel Franklin, Helen Mincemoyer, Georgia johnson, Lor- raine Larson, Elaine Musialek, Alda Ridnour, Phyllis St. Clair, Phyllis Newcomer, Dorothy Samuelson, Eva Burgess, Dorothy Ray, Sarah Ruberg, Mildred Ruberg, and Dorothy Ruberg. Miss Dorothy VViegert, a new teacher in the Home Eco- nomics department, was appointed adviser of the club for this year.

The name Amazon was chosen from an ancient Greek tradition which represented a race of women. These women were noted for their bravery, strength, and perform- ance in athletics. This club encouraging better sportsmanship and fair play, aims to promote good health and to train the girls for leadership in all phases of school life. Any girl in Rockford high school is eligible for member- ship, provided she pays her dues and promises to obey the laws of the constitution, A point system is used, and points are scored through attendance, hiking, basket-ball, baseball, volley ball, hockey, ice and roller skating, skiing, and junior and Senior life saving. Any member after attaining two hun- dred fifty points in these different phases of athletics is re- warded with a letter UA . Volley ball was played last fall, following this the girls played basket-ball with several out of school teams, such as the one from Montague House. Baseball was enjoyed out of doors in the field adjoining the high school. A splash party held in the swimming pool was an added feature in the club this year. ln the spring, hiking to some place near Rockford for a picnic lunch and a tennis tournament were greatly en- joyed by all the girls. The club was asked to take charge of the program for the football rally preceding the game with John Marshall high of Chicago on October third. Howard Dutch Diebert, one of the team, gave a short talk, and as an unusual stunt five girls led the cheers in place of the boy leaders. This club also participated in the Annual staff assembly on December fifteenth. More interest has been shown in the club this year with the membership increasing greatly.

The purpose of the club is to promote in- terest in history, economics, civics, and develop higher ideals of citizenship. The club derives its name from the numerical order of the first letters of history, economics, and civics in the alphabet. Any student who is enrolled in the social science depart- ment may become a member of the club. Besides enrollment in the department, members must also show a special interest in economics, civics, or the entire social science field. To be a worthy member of the club members must attend the meetings regularly. In order to retain membership, stu- dents must pay their dues and take an active part in the club's activities. The club heightens its standard of leadership by placing members on one or more committees. In this way club work- ers have a chance to prove themselves reliable and efficient. The club's aim is to foster a higher standard of citizenship and to further interest in social science. Outstanding programs have been held the past year. Among them were movies of the important high school football games which were taken hy lnez Anderson. The East Aurora-Roclo ford game of 1931 and the Freeport-Rockford game of 1929 were shown. Miss Sarena Dunton, a member of the faculty, gave an interesting talk on her trip abroad last summer. Dur- ! s ..,. NM it fs I H 4 'fe sw- .at Sf T 9, iff!

The purpose of the club is to promote a greater interest in old Rome. The name of the organization is taken from the fasces of the Romans which was a bundle of rods in the midst of which was an axe. This was bor11e by lectors who preceded the high magistrate at Rome, signifying groups of people work- ing together. . The first afternoon party of the school year was sponsored by the group on October thirteenth. Margaret Olson was general chairman of the event. She was assisted by Robert Lawson and Geraldine Black who invited the chaperonesg and Barbara Morgan and Betty Sparks who were in charge of the ticket sale. Roy's Orchestra furnished the music for dancing. O11 November third the Fasces club held one of the out- standing programs of the year. Miss Sarena Dunton, a mem- ber of the laculty, spoke on the Passion Play, which was heh' in Oberammergau, Germany, last summer. This was pre- ceded by a piano solo by Betty Sparks. The Christmas party was another of the club's successful programs. A reading, The Angel and the Shelpherdsf' was given by VVinnifred Huber, and Christmas carols were sung in Latin by the mein- bers of the club. They were accompanied by the club orchestra which is composed of jack McCarthy and Lucy White, violins, Dorothy Shull, fluteg Geraldine Black, pianog and Pierry De- Saix, trombone. At one of the meetings scrolls on which were written a menu for a Roman meal were made. A motion picture of Roman people and their customs was shown before members of the organization in the meeting of October twentieth. Some of the club members made posters commemorating the two thousandth anniversary of Virgil's birth, during the first se- mester.

After if absence from three meetings of the club, a member is auto- ! matically dropped from the organization. The initiation of . new members into the club was held September twenty-ninth ' 'if . ,'.. ' at Beatty Park.

The first official meeting was held on April 29, 1930. Students are eligible for membership if they are studying or have studied the German language. The study of the language has recently been started again, having been dropped immediately after the Great VVar: there has never been, however, a club of this kind in the high school before. For several reasons, the membership is limited to thirty people. The meetings are usually conducted informally with as much singing and speaking in the studied language as possible: also all of the business procedure is carried on in the language. All of the programs are planned not only to develop knowledge and interest, but to give social entertainment. From time to time various members have given talks on the literature, music, and festivities of the land, or often reviews on biographies as Hein- rich Heine are given. Sometimes topics concerning com- merce and customs are discussed. Several members have learned passages from Goethe, Lessing, Schuler, Mann, and Hauptmann, famous German literary characters. VVhenever it is opportune, guest speakers who are born in or have visited Germany, are invited to speak. The Christmas story taken from the Gospel of Luke was read, and Christmas songs were sung at the December meeting. Several very interesting tales of German Christmas were also related. A great interest in the lives and works of the German com- posers has been shown, especially those of Mozart, VVagner, and Beethoven. During the last semester plans were made and carried out concerning the organization of a German chorus. The chorus has a membership of about twenty, which are divided into three groups: sopranos, contraltos, and tenors. VVith Eva Bargren as accompanist, the chorus sings both popu- lar and German folk songs, having as its aim to sing lustily rather than beautifully. I 1 'ga 4 - , 1 r Q.

The club helps the new members to prepare for taking the govern- ment examination for amateur operator's licenses, and gives an opportunity to the members for meeting and discussing radio in general. The members of the club now study both code and telephone transmission. A code class directed by Mr. George Kirby, of the faculty, was sponsored by the Radio club this year as a special feature. The code class enabled the boys who formed it to become able to send and receive code at a speed of at least ten words a minute. The class proved to be very helpful to aspirants for amateur operators licenses. Three of the Radio club's programs consisted of trips to places of interest in Rockford. The First trip was a visit to the Rialto Theater to learn from the operators there how talk- ing pictures are made and projected. This trip was made dur- ing the first semester. The second expedition was made last semester through the power house of the Rockford Electric Company. Here a guide explained the purpose and operation of each unit. The third trip was a journey to the transmitter of radio station KFLV. This trip was especially interesting to the members of the club for it gave them an opportunity to see the transmitting apparatus of a large broadcasting station. Five members of the Radio club who have amateur operator's licenses, are members of the Rock River Radio League. One of them, Paul Johnson, who is one of the outstanding meni- bers of the club, is treasurer of that organization. On Feb- ruary sixteenth, six members of the club took the examination for amateur operator's licenses which is given in the county court house by a government examiner. An applicant for membership in the Radio club must be interested in radio. In order to retain membership in the club, every member must have a satisfactory record of attendance at meetings.

The purpose of the society is to promote literary work and oratory among the boys of the school. As a special feature this year the Philo society sponsored the debate team. The Philo members did this by sellin-g tickets for the debates, and by giving a party. The Hrst annual Philo- mathean-Debate informal party for the benefit of the debate team was held in the Boys' Gym the evening of December fifth. Carlton Page. the first semester president of the Philo so- ciety, was an outstanding member of the debate team. Bruce Paget, Lloyd Easton, and VVilliam Evans, also members of the society were on the debate team and did very creditable work in debating. A new system of ritual for the initiation of new members into the society was put into use this year. It proved to bc not only very interesting to the new members, but very enter- taining to the old members. The Philo society established better leadership in the school this year by stressing oratory and impromptu speaking. An acquaintance with literature, such as the society makes pos- sible for its members, also helps to inspire good leadership. The qualihcations for membership in the l'hilomathean Lit- erary society are met by any boy who has a satisfactory stand- ing in all his scholastic work, who has an upright and clean character. and who can pass the test in parliamentary law which is'-given at the beginning of each semester to all the applicants. The requirements for the retaining of membership in the society make necessary the presence of each member at all meetings unless excused by the president, and the giving of at least one impromptu speech before the society on any assigned subject during the semester.

Social enjoyment is also found on field trips and indoor meetings. Any student in Rockford high school, that is at present or has been in the past enrolled in botany or zoology may become a member of the Biology club. Work on committees and par- ticipation in the programs given throughout the year are very essential in retaining of inembership in this club. Field trips to the Kilbuck forest preserve and many other nearby woods were taken throughout the year. These trips enabled the students to get required specimens for their classes. Miss Jennie Waldo, a former member of the faculty, accompanied the club with the other advisers to places where plants and animals were studied in their natural habitats, Bruce Paget, a member of the zoology department, was given the highest recognition in the credit contest for his work of preparing the skeleton of a turtle for the zoology laboratory. The Biology club consulted Mr. Frank Alberstett, head janitor, as to plans for the school garden, and this as each preceding year, contributed generously in fall and spring to the funds for beautifying the school grounds with colorful flowers. The club gave money to the piano fund also, when a call was made by the Student Council last fall. The Biology club has in the past year become affiliated with the Illinois Junior Academy of Science. This organization hopes to give a better understanding of all lines of science to the high school students of the state affiliation. It offers state wide recognition to pupils who do exceptional project work. A credit system has been devised so that pupils doing special work in aiding the biology department of the school may receive recognition for such service. Baker, Bnrritt, Davis.

The purpose of the club is to raise the standards of art and to induce a greater interest in art among the students by providing them with a way to learn the fundamentals. To become a member of the club, one must have an interest in art, but not necessarily be associated with the department. In order to maintain membership, one must attend meetings regularly, and cooperate in putting across the club projects. The programs of this year have been chiefly centered on figure work. One member would be selected to pose before the group, and the others would sketch the model. At one meeting Professor M. A. Rietzel of the Rockford College faculty, talked on Art and the Student. Musical numbers and games varied the programs. Lenora Inman, an active member of the club, has been recognized for her especially fine work in the school. She made the illustrations and stencils for the Chemistry maga- zine, Nips of News, which was published twice by the Chem- istry classes. Students in Miss Marion Newberry's General Art classes have assisted the yearbook by taking complete charge of all art work found in the book. Astrid Bakkelund and Harlan Ihrlce made the sketches of the school which are found on the opening pages. All club emblems and the borders were drawn and designed by Astrid who was elected as art editor of the Annual. Several other students are directly responsible for designing panels and art work on opening pages. Brad- ford Cary laid out all club panels, and Adolph Jenelunias sub- mitted the art work found on the First nine pages of the book. Miss Newberry and her classes are to be congratulated for their fine work. ' t it si 'A ef' a Q. W: N. , 4, w. di' A 6 sr s e C- f . 4 , Q..

Olson Junior Engineering Society The Junior Engineering Society of Rockford high school was organized i11 the fall of 1928 for the promotion of a stronger interest in engineering among the high school stu- dents enrolled in the half-time cooperative course. The society hopes to accomplish this by bringing information from the engineering field before the members. The creation of a spirit of fellowship among the students in the cooperative course also is an aim of the society. One of the features of the society is an annual banquet which all members and the instructors of the cooperative course attend. At the banquet held this year, several former appren- tices and shop executives were guests. The visiting of fac- tories anfl thc viewing of objects of interest to engineers were features of the society's program this year. An outstanding program which the Junior lfngineering So- ciety held in September featured an address by Mr. Clarence Olson of the Sundstrand Adding Machine Company of Rock- ford. Mr. Olson gave an interesting talk on Tool Designingf' At the December meeting of the society Mr. Roswell C. Ras- mussen, who is a designing engineer for a Rockford manufac- turer, was the principal speaker. In his address he told of the work that is done in the tool working and drafting depart- ments of a factory. He also gave a very interesting account of his experiences as an army engineer in Paris. For the meet- ing of March second the society had as speaker Mr. C. E. Olmstead. Motion pictures of Burma and a talk on Burmese people and their customs and occupations was given by Mr. Olmstead, who was formerly a resident of Rangoon, Burma. The Junior Engineering Society cooperated with the Biology club in donating money to the fund for beautifying the school lawn. The organization also contributed to charity this year. Any student who is enrolled in the half-time cooperative course is eligible for membership in the club. Many of the present and former members of the group continue the study of engineering at colleges and universities. Carlson.

All meetings of El Cir- culo Espanol are carried on in Spanish as far as possible. Several outstanding programs were held by El Circulo Es- panol during both the first and second semesters. The pro- gram of October thirteenth featured two moving pictures, California Missions and Strange Appetitesfl This was the first time that moving pictures have been shown before the Spanish club. A review of the book, HFour Months Afoot in Spain, was given on the program of October twenty-seventh. At the December eighth meeting, several reports on the Pan American Union and its work were given before the club. The committee which wrote to VVashington, D. C. for this informa- tion and presented it consisted of the following members: Evelyn Nelson, chairman: Bernice Braun, Kenneth Lewis, and Avolyn Knott. A very interesting moving picture of a Mexi- can bull Fight was shown by Paul Prather, popular athlete, on March ninth. This program was held in the girls' lunch room. The initiation of new members was held at a picnic at Sin- nissippi Park on September twenty-ninth. At a joint meeting of El Circulo Espanol with the French club, the play Cinder- ella or Cenicienta, the Spanish name, was presented, first in French and then in Spanish. The cast of characters for the Spanish version was as follows: La Cenicienta, Helen Larsong lllagdalena, Gunhild Soderstromg Florencia, Norma Swanson, the llage, Robert Caldwell: the Prince, Vernie Anderson. A Valentine party was held by E1 Circulo Espanol in room 245 where Five new members who entered the club during the second semester were initiated at a meeting held on February twenty-third in the girls' lunch room.

':.':,' Second Semester Curtis Bailey Henry Van Duyne Robert VVilson Ruth Holby Mr. Roy Smith The Aviation club was organized in the latter part of the second semester of the year 1929-1930, by a group of boys who were interested in studying aeronautics and the construction and flying of model planes. The originator of the club was Ralph Hallen who wrote a successful news article on model building. This article aroused interest which ultimately rc- sulted in the organization of the Aviation club. On the roster of the club are two boys, Robert Shipley and Robert VVilson. who have won first and second prizes re- spectively for outdoor flying models in the city model plane contest last year. The Aviation club had as its secretary the first semester Miss Ruth Holby, a girl who has started very early in practical aviation. She has made several successful parachute jumps from planes over the Rockford airport. Miss Holby is probably the youngest parachute jumper in this part of the state. First-hand knowledge of aviation was gained by the club in two outstanding programs this year. Mr. Fred Spalding, who built a glider in the night school last year, and Mr. Fred Ma- chesney, who is manager of the Rockford municipal airport, spoke on the general subject of aeronautics. Special reports on wing construction, stream-timing, gliders, and sail-planes have been given on the club programs. This year Robert Shipley has been supervising the construc- tion of model planes after the club meetings. The club held a contest for flying models for the members besides entering into city competition. The qualifications for entrance into the Aviation club are inet by anyone who has an interest in aviation and who is received by a majority vote of the members present at any regular meeting. In order to meet the requirements for retain- ing membership in the club, each member besides paying his dues must build at least two flying or scale model planes each . f, semester.

Annual All American-National Scholastic Press Association-1930 An ambitious and progressive body of stu- dents and a teacher in 1892 wished that in some way the graduating class could take with them some of the fond school inemories in the form of a booklet so as to be able to recall at any time the various school activities in which they took a part. To be in better unison with the spirit of the high school was another reason why they wished to publish the Book. In the thirty-nine years of consecutive annuals, staffs have been able to produce an almost complete book every year except one. The purpose this year of publishing the annual is to produce an educational book to show exactly what the school is trying to accomplish. The editor of the 1931 edition, Elmer Ander- son. has been recognized for his hard work and patience by being elected secretary of the Illi- Rohlen, Peterson, Grimes. Armstrong Maguire. Collins.

The club carries out many interesting features in its yearly program which include a poetry contest for the club membersg the publication of the book, My Singing Soul g the weekly literary section of the Owl: and the backing of a football rally. An evening party is held by the club each year. Many interesting brief programs are included at the meet- ing. Some of the numbers of the past year were a Lincoln- shire play, which was under the direction of Miss Marjorie Goembelg a tale of Italy by Miss Helen Lovelessg and a skit by Everett Hendrickson illustrating a scene at a broadcasting station. The programs were very enjoyable and furnished the members with a varied type of entertainment. The money gained from a worth while program for charity was given toward aiding the poor and unemployed families of Rockford. Many literary honors have been bestowed upon members of the club, and especially upon Richard Congleton and Dono- van Pratt, whose work has been published in the best student magazine of poetry in the United States, The Gleamf' The greatest work of the Rab Authors club is My Singing Soul, which is a booklet of poetry contributed by the mem- bers. The club has received many favorable comments for this book from many sources, among them being The English Journal of teachers of English. Miss Nethercub of the Evan- der-Childs school of New York is planning to publish some of the club's work in her new book of creative writing. Mr. Bertram Enos, editor of The G1eam, the magazine which publishes some of the best student poetry in the country, has made many interesting comments on the book. To become a member of Rab Authors Club one must hand in two articles which arc worthy of publication' he also must h'ue made above average grades in English and he must be recommended by his English instructor.

H221 Life is Recreatiue ,. .J 75 Life is Recreative Education today recognizes the need for relaxation and change from the classrooms and books. Life is made fuller and more complete by a mixture of both work and play. Because of modern inventions and increased efficiency in all lines of work, there is more time for recreation, and this time is being taken up in every type of recreation. Rockford high school offers a wide and diversified field for recreation. For every student there is an opportunity to enter into the sort of recreation in which he is most interested. Trained instructors guide along the paths of the student's choice, enabling him to take advantage of supervised recreation. VVhether he wishes to sing, play an instru- ment, debate, or enter athletics, Rockford high school gives him a wonderful opportunity to do so. Mr. June Borner and Mr. John T. Haight, leaders of the orchestra and band respec- tively, have organized and built up organizations of unusual merit and accomplishment. Such events as the National Orchestra and Band contests have given the student musi- cians both beneficial instruction and good wholesome fun. The Glee club is always active in all school activities, participating in the assemblies especially. The students find great joy and much fun in their singing, and find life that much richer from their experience in this work. Each year the organization presents an operetta before the public. These consecutive championship debate squads show how much effort the debaters put in their work and also how much interest. They Find it a pleasant sort of recreation from which they reap both rhetorical benefits and fun. School life is not complete without athletics. Little can be added to what has been said already by many in regard to the comradeships and fun derived from participating in athletics. The teams that Rockford high school has produced in her history speak for themselves, in merit, character, and spirit of recreation. Every field of sport is provided for, giving an opportunity to those who deserve to participate in football, basketball, track, swimming, tennis, and golf. For the girls the gym course provides baseball, volley ball, basketball, and other types of games. Thus Rockford high school exhibits its ability to offer to every type of student some form of recreation in which he may be interested. Opportunity to realize that high school days mean a happy, worth while, pleasant period of his life is the aim of the high school's program of recreation for the student. -Q-:sau i -gs- ,gf 5 i 'i1'J A-Qfff 11 A I YTWQQ i f .. .A ,i,?Y Behr was voted the outstanding ACTIVITIES worker by the senior class.

The annual presentation of the band this year was given in the forni of a vaudeville show, presented on the twenty-nfth of February. The six acts were presented to give the impression of a circus. A Cappella choir offered an in- teresting interpretation of an old-fash- ioned singing school and four members of the faculty comprised a quartette. All in all, the circus was a great success.

From the members of the two clubs, Louis Westenberg, lone Hohenstein, Richard Harvey, and Everett Hend- rickson were chosen to represent Rock- ford in the National Chorus. This chorus sang several times at thc Na- tional Education Association winter meeting in February. Each club has a quartet, made up of members of the organization. These small groups have entertained a great many times clubs of the city and also Roosevelt and Lincoln Junior high schools. Both quartets participated in the A Cappella choir. Many congratulations are due the Boys Glee club for winning the first prize of ten dollars in the Annual Staff as Poo- PRENTICE President assembly. The stunt presented by this organ- iaation was an impersonation of the Floradora Sextet. . Laughter lilled the auditorium, while the strains of VValking Through the Park One Day were sung. The Girls Glee club also entered the contest, but were not successful in winning one of the three prizes, although it had taken Hrst place the preceding year. The Glee clubs, with the aid of the A Cappella choir, presented a very in- teresting musical program at an early assembly last semester. This was par- ticularly enjoyed by the student body, because of the hrst appearance of the A Cappella choir. To become a mem- ber of these organizations one must have a singing voice and the ability to read music. No boy or girl is eligible to try out for membership unless he or she has had at least one semester of chorus work in the high school.

Only three members of last year's championship squad returned to school, and they were from the sec- ond team. However, knowing they were handicapped by inexperience, they worked that much harder: and a very creditable non-decision debate was given on January eleventh. The affirm- ative team. composed of Jane Knight, Lloyd Easton, and Rose Kasinkus inet J. Sterling Morton high school of Cicero in the first night debate. The negative team, Mabel Richards, Carl- ton Page, and Margaret Madden trav- eled to Cicero.

VVest Aurora Caught napping Heavyweight Football Night football was inaugurated at Rockford Senior high school with the first game of the sea- son with Bowen high school of Chicago. Dur- ing the summer of 1930, the lighting equipment had been installed at the high school stadium. Mr. Leo Lyons, former supervisor of physical education in Rockford schools, and Mr. Guy VVilliams, member of the Board of Education, were directly responsible for the introduction of the new feature to Rockford football fans. When the gun sounded, ending the game with Bowen, Rockford's first foe, many fans groaned. They expected a repetition of the 1929 season. The Rab majors had worked the ball over the goal only to lose on a fumble, the game ending 6-0. Then Beloit sent an untried team to Rockford. The Rabs had improved fifty per cent, over the Hrst game, through the ardent efforts of Coach Arthur Lundahl. Alex Yankus and Clarence Steve Polaski led the improved Rockford line in the Z8-6 victory. The Rah line did not let the Beloit backs even start and the line opened many holes for the Red and Black backfield men to run through. Karl f'Cully Rohlen was the outstanding offensive man, with Ronald Prentice, Jack Beynon, Evald Nyquist, and La- Verne Pete Allen each doing his part. The next week John Marshall high of Chi- cago sent their team to Rockford only to return defeated by the score of 32-0.

The game was hard played, but Rockford had the edge on their opponents in weight and ability so had little difficulty in re- pulsing the Chicagoans. The first real test of Rockford's great team came in the game with Elgin, defending cham- pions. The Elgin team outweighed the Rabs, but the underdogs kept Fighting until the final gun was fired. Captain Barton Cummings, All- State end, and Russell Erh led the Rahs on defense, but it must he mentioned that all the Rockford players did more than their share or Rockford would not have won 26-6. Ronald Prentice, halfback, repeatedly ran through El- gin's big line for substantial gains. A team that tights is hard to beat, may well character- ize this Rockford team. Joliet visited Rockford for the last night game of the season. Rockford, again improved, ran through, over, and around the Black and Gold team. The Rab first team ran up forty points, and the second team completed the 59-0 score, the largest in the Big Six conference of the 1930 season. In a game of this sort it would he hard to discriminate as to who was outstanding.

Tackled for loss, Rockford Heavyweight Football doing their best. The Rockford performers excelled their opponents in every department of the game. The critics classed Rockford and East Aurora as the choice of the conference. XYith 2,400 Rab fans cheering at East Aurora, Rockford's 1930 championship team, turned back the strong East High, Z1-0. Both teams showed power on of- fense and defense. The game went without a score the first half, Rockford's line stopping an East lligh drive on their 15-yard line. Rock- ford's first score came on a pass from Beynon to Cummings, who passed laterally to Rohlen, who went over from the 15-yard line. A seventy yard run by jack Beynon, All-State quarterback, resulted in the second score. The last Rab counter came when the Aurora quarterback fumbled a punt, Bob Scott, end, falling on the ball for the score. The entire Rockford team played exceptionally well, but Bob Scott was outstanding in the line. Evald Nyquist knocked down several passes which might have resulted in Aurora scores. Jack Beynon was the big factor in Rab offense. The game was close from beginning to end even if the final score read 21-0. The Rockford team next traveled to Moline to meet the champions of the Little Nine Con- ference. The game at times, was very bitterly fought, both teams cashing in on substantial gains. jack Beynon leading the Rabs on de- fense as well as offense, stopped what might . rw- f' 'fee' SCOTT NYQUIST LINDHE H341 . 1951 .Ng .

Good interference Lightweight Football XVit1i the e11d of the 1929 season the light- weights finished one of the best in history, tying with Elgin for the Big Six Conference light- weight football championship. With only one veteran, Robert Trobbie Truesdell, Coach james Laude was forced to build a winning combination for the 1930 lightweight season. Against Marengo, which came with a team out- weighing the locals more than ten pounds per man, Rockford showed real fight, but was de- feated by a score of 13-7. The Beloit eleven came to Rockford for the second game of the season, and with their su- perior weight almost triumphedg but spectacular playing by f'Trobbie Truesdell and Williaiii Gates tied the score 6-6. Rockford began to bear down as Elgin was the next opponent. Elgin players came and con- quered to the tune of 20-O, but not without their hardest fight of the season, played before the largest crowd of the year in the stadium. In this game Rockford saw its captain fighting, and his work proved the only balm of the evening. The next week the lights, playing the Prison City lights, were determined to obtain their first victory. Fumbling from cold fingers was very frequent with both teams because of the sudden change of the weather. As the game pro- gressed, it became evident that Rockford lights were playing their best game up to date. A break, a stray pass, spelled defeat for Rockford, I-'RATHER TRUESDELL NELSON 11381 - 1931 ' . ' jT'1A'g: f , I A ,'.'liii'1',fBsy.'f.', .. if ,4 . 5 .43 Lu.

Real Hght Lightweight Season with even tl1e wonderful playing of Truesdell Gates, John NVeld, and Kenneth King swarmed and Gates proving of no avail. Rockford, going to East Aurora in the next game, hoped to gain the first victory of the sea- son. At first it seemed as if the lights might achieve their goal, for a march from the kick- off brought the ball to the Aurora twenty-yard line, only to be lost on downs. From then on there was a duel between Truesdell of Rock- ford and XVhite and Patterson, the Aurora stars. Finally another pass was let loose and Aurora had its first touchdown. Others soon followed and finally Rockford was subdued 20-0. The Laudemen, aware that following the precedent made by used all their energy at Molix ,ff xg they were not the 1929 team, ie. Truesdell, all over the Moline's stadium and tasted victory to the tune of 26-0. VVith this as a turning point the minors showed their power and beat W'est Aurora 46-0. When Trobbie left the game, Rockford had four touchdowns, and the playing was continued under the direction of Billy Gates. The traditional game of the season with Free- port being next, the lights bent all their efforts toward this tilt. At the start of the game, there seemed to be a real battle, Both teams were pitched to their highest degree and both wanted to close their season with a victory.

Rockford and Aurora fighting for ball Lightweight Season cost for the installation of the lights was 53,794.00 a large amount of which was paid with the gate receipts of the first two night games. On Friday evening, September 19, l930, the lights were used for the first time when Rockford met Bowen high school of Chicago on the gridiron. At the meeting of the lighting committee, it was decided that the lights would be used not only for football: but also for music festivals. physical education exhibitions, and that pos- sibly an open air comniencenient could lge held under the lights. One evening last fall an open air concert was presented at the stadium by the leading singing societies of the city. The musi- cal festival met with a great success, and many people were unable to End seats because of the large crowds. Playing conditions in night football are the same as in the day time. The light illuminates the field so thoroughly that if the ball is kicked high into the air it does not leave the lighted area. Instead of using a brown pigskin as in the day games. a white one is used. The light color makes it easier for the players to follow the movements of the oval. The Rab stadium has assumed an entirely new appearance since the equipment has been in- stalled. Tall poles have been erected around the field, and on top of each rests the powerful floodlights. The poles, which stand sixty feet above the ground, are the highest tried for night football in northern Illinois.

From these Coach Lundahl formed one of the best lightweight teams in the history of the school. ' Starting the season with a 21-16 defeat at the hands of the experienced Alumni, the Rablets made a start like that of the heavyweight foot- ball team. The lightweights came back the fol- lowing week with new fight and a better brand of defencc to turn back FIlburn's lightweights 26-5. The entire Rockford team did remarkably with Gates and lfllison sharing thc scoring honors. Led by Captain Scott the lightweight team repulsed Belvidere 23-12 at Belvidere. 'tBob, as the team calls him, deserves much credit for the success of this team. His determination has inspired many of his teammates to get that extra drive to carry them through. His election as co-captain and center on the All-Conference team at the close of the year bears out this state- ment. Opening the conference with 17-10 win over the NYest Aurora, the Rablets showed power on defense and around the basket. Lead on de- fense by Robert Truesdell the Red and Black team issued a warning for all opposing basket tossers. The first conference upset came at Joliet. The Joliet team displayed a good brand of basket- ball, but the Rockford team could not get started. The game ended 20-14 in the favor of Joliet. Those who traveled to Elgin will not forget how much Fight the team had there: how the lilgin team scored fourteen points before Rock- ford counted: and the half ended with Elgin in a lead which it was believed no team could overcome. The Rockford team fought and played exceptional basketball to overcome that lead with one-half minute to play. A foul by one of the Rabs gave Elgin the needed points to forge ahead when the gun sounded, and the Rockford team lost 25-24, but had proved it had plenty of determination.

Rockford showed its power over Freeport by running over them 28-6. Bob Truesdell and Ellison leading the team on both defense and offense, played their last game with the victory. VVith the start of the second semester and the second round of the Big Six campaign Rock- ford rested third with two defeats. At East Aurora the Rockford boys took one step closer to the Championship by a smashing 26-19 vic- tory. Edwin Friel, who took Ellison's place at one forward, led the scoring column with four baskets. The same week. the Rockford lightweights won a thrilling game from Beloit lights 20-22. A good pass, from Friel to Scott, made the basket that broke the tie in the last minute of play. The strong Joliet team came to Rockford to duplicate its earlier victory, but the Rablets completely outplayed the Prison city in a 34-16 victory. George Nelson, guard, played his best game at this time. lflgin came the next Friday with the same intentions as the Joliet team. They, too, were sent home with a 33-18 defeat. The Rockford team scored twenty-two points in the first half to l-Ilgin's two. VVest Aurora's zone defense again gave the Rablets a scare, but at the end of the game the score showed Rockford 17, West Aurora 14. XYith Gates and Friel the scoring aces, Scott was the mainstay of the Red and Black defense. To close a successful season Rockford again handed a beating to l7reeport's Orange and Black lightweights. Robert Anger, who had played a consistent game all the season, played very well on offense and better on defense. The final score, 33-ll in favor of Rockford, gave Rockford an undisputed championship. Scott and Gates were named on the honorary Big Six All-Conference lightweight team se- lected by the coaches of the contending schools, Anger was placed on the second All-Confer- ence team. -- ' .im A 5 ,ik A is.. swf- ,,jg-Q i ii V i I n y E 1 X 5 A LL AA. . , J Scott Truesdell Anger Anderson 11451 s . . , '..,,, M! ,X 13,5 I uri, ,V ,1,...j.:g -- . . h V ,V ., ' ..,.t.i.3,,. t .., .,..

Everett Rals- ton. Richard Ray, and Karl Rohlen were the three former lightweights reporting to Coach J. A. Laude late in November. The Alumni furnished opposition for the heavies in a game where the new rules of bas- ketball were demonstrated. The grads were defeated l9-l6, The next week found a powerful Elburn team, massing twenty points before Rockford knew what had happened. The Rabs came back strong in the second half, but failed to get enough tallies to overtake their opponents, the Final score being 33-28. East Aurora traveled to Rockford only to return burdened with a 21-16 defeat. Good of- fense and defense were displayed by the Red and Black, and Pyle, a guard, counted most for the losers. The Alumni again were defeated on Decem- ber 28 in the annual scheduled game. Frank Polaski Rohlen johnson led the losers, but Rohlen and Beynon led the Rockford scoring. Belvidere was next in line and won 27-l2. The Belvidere team showed real power while holding the Rockford team to twelve points. The following Friday saw the Rockford team at Vloliet. Rockford started well, getting six points in less than a minute. W'ith a steady game. ,loliet merged ahead in the last half, to defeat Rockford 28-23. XN'l1en the Rabs returned from Elgin, they were wondering what had hit them. Led in the scoring by Bart Cummings, who was the only one to make baskets for Rockford, the Red and Black was defeated 35-l6. The entire Elgin team seemed to have no end in their ability to make baskets. VVest Aurora was the next foe to fall be- neath the Rabs. Aurora's defense weakened early and the entire Rockford team went on a scoring spree to mass 35 to West Highls l8.

At the start of the second round Rockford was perched in third place. The team travelled to East Aurora to defeat them again 21-19. The next night Beloit turned the tables on the Rabs and won 26-19. The Rabs were led by Cummings and Volaski on defense and of- fense. The loss of Bart Cummings came to the Rabs the week before the Joliet game. Everett Ralston was on the sick list and two were lost by graduation. Coach Laude faced a big prob- lem, and finally overcame this with a 21-20 vic- tory over joliet. Dick Smith and Steve Po- laski led the Rabs in this unexpected, but well earned victory. The strong Elgin team came to Rockford expecting a victory. They met a fighting team and Rockford again did the unexpected in de- feating the conference champions 24-23. Rockford traveled to VVest Aurora only to lose to them 20-12. The Rabs could not find the baskets, but the XVest High team dropped the ball through the hoop at will. llard sledding was found by Rockford at Freeport in the last conference game. Leanny, Freeport forward, was high scorer, while Po- laski was the outstanding performer of the game. Polaski and Cummings were honored by being placed on the All-Conference team. The First game of the District Tournament played in Rockford, resulted in a win for the Red and Black.

LEATHERBY CUMMIXGS K - . x CRANDALL CAMPISI Track Season Early track prospects for 1930 were deceivingly good during the pre- season training period. Approximately forty prospective trackmen answered Coach Charles A. Beyer's call for candidates early in January. Four good distance men, headed by Captain Leo Campisi, Swen Berglund, sophomore sprint star, and Chet Youngman, a consistently good pole vaulter, remained from the 1929 team. Several newcomers, Fay Shaul, Bill Ethridge, and Robert Truesdell, sprinters, Barton Cummings, weight man, and Al Robinson, hurdles, greatly strengthened this group and filled the vacancies left by graduation. March 12 Rockford entertained Freeport at an indoor dual meet and defeated the visitors 38 to 30. The following Saturday, they journeyed to Oak Park to compete in a triangular meet between Oak Park, Lindblom, and Rockford. Oak Park won with seventy points, Lindblom won second with eleven and the local team was third with nine. Campisi, Ethridge, Crandall, and lierglund were Rockt'ord's only winners. :Xt the Northwestern National Indoor interscholastic, held one week later, Leo Campisi placed fourth in the mile run, giving his team its only point. April 20 Rockford dominated a quadrangular meet between Har- lem, Belvidere, Stillman Valley, and Rockford. Fay Shaul, sophomore sprinter, was high point man with llm points. At the Mid-West Relay Carnival held at the University of VVisco11sin, April 27, a distance medley relay team smashed the existing record by 15.2 seconds, completing the distance in 1l:02.2. ln this relay Bob Scott ran a quarter of a mile, Vincent Leatherby ran the half mile, Leland Crandall the three-quarters mile distance, and Leo Campisi finished up with the mile. Captain Campisi's time was estimated as being the fastest prep mile run in VV'isconsin during the year. The record established is thought to be a na- tional record for the distance. Youngman placed third in the pole vault, and Robert Truesdell finished second in the 100 yard dash, but due to an official's error he was not picked in that position. Freeport cindermen were again defeated when they came to Rockford April 30g the score was 69 to 53. At this time a jinx seemed to settle upon the Rab team: First, Sven Berglund, all around sprinter and jumper, became injured and dropped from school: then, Robert Truesdell was injured in an automobile accident. Two weeks later Fay Shaul wrenched his side and was forced to quit competition. Throughout the season Clyde Salaway suffered with strained leg muscles and at no time was he capable of performing 1 , , at his best. SCOTT JUNIOR-SENIOR TRACK MEET I 148 I 1951 Track Season One week later, a four-mile relay team ran to a new record of l9:3O.6 at the Marquette Relay Carnival and thereby annexed the national title for that distance. This team, composed of Crandall, Leatherby, Salaway, and Campisi, bettered the old record by 9.6 seconds. Youngman tied for third in the pole vault to give the Rabs some additional points. Rockford won the district meet at Dixon with 44 points. Freeport was second with 24M. This feat was accomplished by a well balanced team scoring in nearly every event and having no outstanding stars. In the mile run, the feature race of the day, Ilutton, of Savanna defeated Campisi in the record time of 41353. Seven days later. at the state meet held at Kihainpaigti, the diminutive Rockford captain fought his way to a brilliant victory and established him- self as the fastest mile runner in the state. His record of 4:34.l was within a few tenths of the All-Time state record. Due to the loss of sprinters and a general off-day, the Rab team failed to place better than fourth in the Big Six Conference meet. Joliet won with 52 pointsg NVest Aurora placed second, and East Aurora finished in third po- sition. Campisi wo11 both the mile and half-mile events, duplicating his per- formance of the year before. May 27 the team journeyed to Elgin and defeated their competitors in a closely contested dual meet, 76 to 55. Bart Cummings, weight man, scored fourteen points in the meet. Coach Beyer entered a two-mile relay team in the National Interscholastic held at Chicago May 31. This team, composed of Salaway, Crandall, Leatherby, and Campisi placed fifth in the event. The annual inter-class meet furnished the most thrilling home meet of the year. The Juniors defeated the Seniors 62 to 61. The Pentathlon, the final track event of the year, was won by Bart Cum- mings with 3,278 points. Etbridge was second with 2,627 points. Clyde Salaway, a member of the team for two years, was elected to captain the team during the next year by the lettermen at a banquet given by the retiring captain, Leo Campisi.

Among the returning tankers were Captain Fred Byergo, Alex Semenchuk, Bob Knight, George Bononis, NVinston Saaf, and Ex-Captain Anton Zukas, a star sprinter and diver. The first two meets of the season were with Oak Park, and Rockford won an easy victory in each. In the second Ray VValters, a sopho- more, set an all time record for the one hundred yard free style, 57.7 seconds. All went fine until the sixth meet, which was with Maine Township high school. The Rabs suffered their first defeat at the hands of this experienced team. The Maine swimmers have not been defeated in a dual contest in four years. Zukas was the star, winning the diving and second place in the fifty-yard free style. The LaSalle-Peru Valley conference champs were upset by the Rockford swimmers at a meet in the opponent's tank. Bob Knight was the leader in this meet, winning the diving ex- hibitions. On February twenty-eighth the Rabs jour- neyed to participate in the Waukegaii invita- tional meet. Ten schools entered, and Rock- ford tied for the second place with Evanston. Again the Maine Township high school was victor. Scores for the three leading teams were Maine 28, Rockford 22, and Evanston ZZ. The Red and Black swimmers went to Chi- cago on March fourth and fifth to take part in the Illinois Athletic club state meet. Here they placed second, being nosed out by Senn high school of Chicago, but overcame their jinx, Maine. Anton Zukas established himself as premier state diver. For the hrst time in the history of the local tankers, a dual meet was held with a college. The swimmers were successful in trouncing the Lawrence College, 47-16. 4, 5' '- f asa.

Tennis Season ln 1930, Rockford again joined the other northern lllinois schools in the fight for the tennis title. After having had such stars as Bill Medaris and Robert Taylor in 1927, the sport was dropped, due to lack of competition and interest. Having chosen his team in 1930, Coach Laude invaded Freeport to depart with a victory of 5-3. With the first victory tucked away, De- Kalb was invited to match talent. DeKalb left with a heavy heart, having been defeated 4-1. The Rabs met their first defeat with the ex- perienced Joliet Township high school team, one of the best in the Big Six. Rockford's team members groomed them- selves for their invasion of DeKalb. Their ef- forts were well rewarded by a 3-2 victory, i11 one of the hardest fought matches of the season. GILBERT GOODMAN NABER MASON ln the district tournament which was held in Rockford, two members of the Rab team gained a trip to the state finals at Champaign, but the Rockford representatives met with stiff compe- tition and were defeated early in the tourna- ment. In the Big Six meet the Rockford team was able to place third with a victory by Emory Mason and Cloy Naber in the doubtless com- petition. Guy Gilbert, number one, was the outstanding player of the season. ln Paul Goodman great ability was discovered as he turned out excellent playing. A great deal of credit must be given to both Louis Froelich, number three, and lVil1ian1 Gates, number four. ln the doubles Rockford had two very good teams. Jack lieynon and Robert Gibb were number one, this team won many matches, whose tallies contributed to victories for Rock- ford high school.

THORPE Ciolf After completing a successful Hrst season of golf in Rockford high school, Burt Kling, Rob- ert Holmin, Roy Thorpe and Roy Shipman were awarded golf letters late in June, 1930. The Hrst meet was staged at Beloit, XVis- consin, on May 13. The team came home with a tie scorego-6. The points gained were as follows: one point for the victor of the first nine holes, and one point, for the low score of eighteen. Robert Holmin won three points and Roy Shipman gave Rockford the other point. The sectional meet was held May 3 at Inger- soll Park. Any school in the Rockford district could send as many as it desired to this meet. The winners were rewarded by being able to compete at the state meet at Champaign., On May 17 and 18, 150 prep school golfers were entered in this tournament. Out of thirty-two in the finals, Rockford was represented by two, Burt Kling and Robert Holmin, Burt winning seventh place with a score of 166 for two rounds of golf. Robert Holmin, who qualified, did not finish among the point winners, but was in the upper half. Roy Thorpe, Rockford's third representative, missed the qualifying mark by one stroke. The first meeting after the state contest was with Elgin high school. Elgin defeated the Rab team 5-3 on Elgin's home course. Rockford then met the Beloit team again. Number four n1an of Beloit playing a good game of golf, breaking par, gave the invaders a 5-3 victory. The Rockford golfers played Lake Geneva at the Ingersoll Park course, in the closing meet of the 1930 season which resulted in an overwhelming victory over the Lake Geneva team. At the end of the season an open tournament between individual players, was staged with a cup to the victor, as a reward. VVell-played golf was displayed throughout the tournament, with Don Olson winning thc Class A division. H. JoHNsoN SHIPMAN HOLMIN E.

H581 Life is Friendlq My f S M f,. ,, ,J ,f ,f -1 fo : CKFO Q F5 Life is Friendlq Days spent in high school are generally acknowledged to be among the happiest in any person's life. There are so many pleasant memories, so many pleasant incidents to recall, and above all, so many beautiful friendships formed to make life that much richer. High school friendships remain with one all through life whether in actual association or in memory. There is an unusual air of friendliness in Rockford high school. The spirit of com- radeship seems to predominate whatever the occasion may be. The corridors, the class room, and the social groups have an atmosphere of pleasantness and friendliness. We are fortunate in having a faculty at Rockford high school that does not place itself on a level so far above the student body that there is a wide and inaccessible gap between the two. On the contrary, the teachers of school have made themselves such reliable friends that they have made a happy pleasant connection between students and faculty. In the system usedi in Rockford high school, there is much opportunity for the stu- dent to become acquainted with the faculty. Miss Hazel Putnam as dean of girls and Mr. Paul Conklin as adviser of the boys, give good advice to those in their charge, and their interest develops a true spirit of friendliness. The class advisers work with the students, advise them, and share their difficulties and form friendly contact that is bene- ficial both to the studenft and the adviser. The home room plan has also developed good will between the home room teacher and the group he is working with to a greater ex- tent than has been accomplished before. And so the years of our high school life are spent in a wholesome atmosphere of pleasant associations and friendships. The faculty and students work with each other on a basis of friendliness that enables them to realize the value of the three F's of high school life, namely Facts, Fun, and Friends. 1,Ig12..'.-',A- ' ' ' .'.-.af L4 g 1 :, ,,l i , A. ,Q-Q.-f'j'ff.'fL'.A . ..... 1, n.jI' 1., .ft .

No person can go through life alone and utterly indepen- dent of others. The schools as training places for future citizens realize the value of stressing cooperation and the necessity of helping others. The community is always interested in the school and depends upon it as the place where good citizens are made. They turn to the students for help in various community projects and in return receive the wholehearted support of the student body. Rockford high school has opened its doors to any citizen who wishes to receive edu- cation. Its night school courses offer training in every line cooperating with those who must work through the day. The enrollment of fourteen hundred in the night school classes shows the interest and enthusiasm displayed by the schools and the community. Teachers and parents are interested in the welfare of the students and continually try to offer suggestions' and opportunities for new interests. Society has always put dehnite awards upon certain achievement and the young people have always striven for the best of these awards. The past year in Rockford high school has given opportunity to enter into several contests among which were the Rockford Community Fund Poster and Essay contests, the Banking Essay, the London Conference Essay, the Gorgas Memorial Essay, and the lluilding and Loan Oratorical and Essay contests. Those in- terested in literature have been able to participate in the National Scholastic Magazine contests. The spirit of cooperation has been stressed both within our school and without. The community has been deeply interested in our students and our business men more than generous with advice and help. The industries have cooperated with us giving the stu- dents a course both in method and actual contact. Commercial students through co- operation with business men know what is expected of them and train accordingly. Witliiii the school the students cooperate to obtain the success of their various un- dertakings. The Annual is the result of cooperation beetween connnercial and art departments, and the students of the staff. The beautiful grounds of the school are due to the efforts of the Student Council in collecting money for bulbs and plants. The smoothly running routine of the whole school system is largely due to the cooperation of students and faculty. Schools are but the reflections of the ideals and desires of the community. What better ideal could be refelected than that of perfect cooperation and the spirit of good will toward fellow men! . ag? . , 5, VX f l 1 xv W 4 ' WM w ie WK Af N A417 V If 7 J ffi gif X I my ,lf '4 VXA I Lip NS!

Rockford Public Evening School The offering of instruction to adults by the Iioard of Education is becoming more and more prevalent throughout the country.

The flaming torch of the National Honor Society is truly a fitting symbol to lead the students on to truth and beauty. Probably the most desired honor of every student is admission to the National Honor Society, the Phi Beta Kappa of the high school. The students given this honor are elected each year by the faculty in recognition of their accomplishments. This society is an ideal to be looked up to and to be worked for. A recently introduced organization is the National Athletic Scholarship society rec- ognizing those athletes whose scholastic work ranks high. The fine young men who enter this society have set forth certain ideals and have held to them. The Quill and Scroll for high school journalists, and the Honorary Music Society for high school mu- sicians are two more organizations that have encouraged students in their work. Girls who have done excellent work in English are invited to join the A. B. L., an organization which fosters the stgudy of ideals as taught in literature. The Hi-Y teaches boys in the club the value of the four Cls, Clean Living, Clean Scholarship, Clean Speech, and Clean Athletics. Recognizing the traits of leadership and trusting them to do what they feel is right, the student body elects representatives to the Student Council showing their faith and trust in their ability. V V, Rockford Senior high school has long held to the highest of ideals and tried to im- part them to every student. It sends forth to the community, citizens trained to be honest and reliable. Beauty and truth are the gifts it places in the hands of the gradu- ates and sends them forth upon their way with the plea to be courageous, truthful, trust worthy, happy, cooperative, and above all to be true to their ideals. ., ,V .ff Ugg j fjfifff Charles Jensen has earned the HONOR of having the third highest scholastic average in the senior class.

Any student elected to this society is given one of the greatest honors that the high school can bestow on him. So far as is known the first scholarship honor society for secondary schools, llhi Beta Sigma, was founded in 1900 by Doctor lNilliam B. Owen of the Chicago Normal College, when he was principal of the Old South Side Academy, Chicago. The purpose of the society is to create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote leadership in all school and outside activities, and develop the character of a student. The emblem is a keystone with a flam- ing torch indicating the strong foundation of education in re- gard to truth and life. They keystone bears at its base the letters S, L, C, and S, which stand for the four cardinal prin- ciples of its organization: Scholarship, Leadership, Character, and Service respectively. The following taken from the national constitution is the pledge of the initiates each year: I pledge myself to uphold the high purpose of this society to which I have been elected, striving in every way, by word and deed, to make its ideals the ideals of my school. A list of students eligible in scholarship is submitted and voted upon by all teachers in regard to service, leadership, and character. Then a council of senior English and history in- structors with the heads of instruction departments, and class advisers, vote again. Fifteen per cent of the second semester seniors, ten per cent of the first semester seniors, and five per cent of the second semester juniors are all that may be added each year. The most outstanding event which occurs in the society is the elaborate ceremony given for the reception of the new members before the entire student body in an asesmbly in june. Fitting addresses have been given at this time by presi- dents of colleges in the Rockford area, namely: James C. Brown, of Northern Illinois State Teachers: Irving Maurer, of Beloit, and VVilliam A.

They 1111.181 also pass the requirements set by a hoard of four high school teachers, who hear a musical selection from each person wish- ing to become a member. At this try-out, held each semester, the judges make their decision as to the worthiness of the musician, by his choice, poise, a11d interpretation of his selec- tion. In order to retain his 111e111bersl1ip, a member must 111ake at least live musical performances in public each semester. One of the most interesting programs this year, was held at the meeting o11 January 13, 1931. Mrs. Edna West G-rindon sang a group of songs, and Carroll Stanley, an alumnus of the high school a11d honorary member of the society, gave several violin solos. O11 May eleventh, the Honorary Musical Society pre- sented a11 assembly, each ll1CllllJCI' taking part i11 one of thc three programs. Several records are kept of the accomplishments of tl1e members of this group. Whexiever a member takes part i11 a program, anywhere, by giving a musical selectio11, he makes a note of it i11 a book, kept by the club for that purpose. A scrap book is also kept ill which any newspaper clippings or account of this kind, regarding the work of tl1e society or of 0116 of its members, is pasted. Thus a record of the activities of the society is kept from year to year. Because it is a11 l1o11or to belong to tl1e Honorary Musical Society, each member takes a deep and active interest i11 it, by helping to furnish musical selections, both for the gro11p's meetings, and other activities of the school. I11 this wav the purpose of the Clllll, which is to further tl1e interest of music, is accomplished.

The main reason for establishing the club was to en- courage higher scholarship among the athletesg to further a desire for more balanced trainingg to stimulate the ideas of sportsmanship, and to produce more outstanding leaders in the schools of the country. The following taken from the National Constitution of the organization explains what boys may be elected to this group: Eligibility to membership in this society shall be limited to those boys earning an athletic letter in one of the four major sports, or letters in two minor sports, whose average in their school work for three consecutive semesters is equal to or higher than the general average of the school, and who have exemplified the highest type of citizenship and sportsmanshipf' The National Athletic Scholarship Society does not par- ticipate in any school activities or hold any meetings through- out the year as it is merely an honorary organization. Eleven boys up to the present year have been given the distinction of being elected members of this society. There were twelve boys elected to the society this year. They are Russell Erb, Joseph Gustitus, Harry Karzewski, John Mc- Carthy, George Nelson, Evald Nyquist, Paul Prather, David Richwine, Robert Scott, John Weld, Earl Magnuson, and Jonas Johnson.

The Quill and Scroll Society is an international society for high school journalists, the pur- pose of which is to further interest in publication work and to give special recognition to the outstanding workers in jour- nalism. As a special feature this year, projects to be carried out during the second semester were assigned to each member. Some of these were encouragement of students to join the pub- lications staff, the purchase of books for the publication library, and the holding of joint meetings with the Junior high staffs. One of the most outstanding programs which the Quill and Scroll Society sponsored, was the Good Will Program which was held April twenty-seventh here and at Elgin. To local members of the Quill and Scroll Society were sectional winners in national journalistic contests conducted near the end of the first semester by the National Quill and Scroll Society. In the news writing contest, Frances Stites won fourth place for the West Central states. Herbert Cal- vert won fifth place for the West Central states in the news judgment contest. Emory Mason, sports editor of the Owl Staff, won honorable mention for his editorial in the Illinois division of the editorial writing contest. The club cooperated with the other school activities in encouraging high scholarship and all the qualities which make a good school citizen. The Quill and Scroll Society hopes to establish better leadership in the school by honoring its own leaders for certain qualities which all leaders possess. The qualihcations for membership in the society are met by any junior or senior who is in the upper third of his class in general scholastic standing at the time of his election, who has done superior work in some phase of journalistic or cre- ative endeavor, who is recommended by the supervisor, and is approved by the national secretary-treasurer. Initiates to the society were introduced at the Owl-Annual dinner-dance and were presented with their pins at that time. Each member must continue to demonstrate qualities of leadership during the year, evidence more than ordinary inter- est in the publications, and do something outstanding in order to retain membership in the society. +V' U 1 'fi Q if E s IA -.5 Q Anderson, Brunn, Calvert, House, Johnson, Larson, Mason, Scott, Stites, VVinget il I1891 '.

By cooperating with the Biology club, new shrubbery was planted around the building. The Student Council has also aided in the purchase of a new piano which was placed in the Boys' Gym to be used for school parties. 'An animal spring carnival is sponsored by the organiza- tion every year in the form of an evening party. This partv isinformal and does not require the students to date. It is an opportunity for those pupils who do not usually attend the school social functions to participate in the gaietv of school life. A new system was introduced this year for the circulation and distribution of the Gwl. Each student council representa- tive is responsible for the subscribers in his home room, and must see that they are furnished the copies of the school paper due them. The council teaches leadership to the students by placing them on special committees. A worthwhile accomplishment of the organization this year was the issuing of suggestions to all home rooms for conduct in corridors, assemblies, and studv halls.

The Hi-Y clubs are formed in towns where there is no local Y. M. C. A. The purpose of the club is to create, maintain, and extend through- out the high school and community, a higher standard of Christian living. That Z1 boy must have attended Rockford high school six quarters before he enters the club is the only necessary qualifi- cation required. In order to keep his membership, he must attend meetings regularly and pay his dues. The meetings are held in the evening once every two weeks. The Hi-Y club helps to promote a better type of character in the boys by having them live up to the purpose of the club, and thereby making better leaders out of them. The club in the past year has had two special features. The more outstanding was the Father and Son banquet. At this meeting the father learned what the organization meant and what it has done for his boy. President VVilliam Maddox of Rockford College was the principal speaker of the evening. Everett Hendrickson acted as toastrnasterg the president of the club, Herbert Calvert, gave the address of welcome: and Carl- ton Page gave a talk on the Hi-Y clubs. The other feature program was the Buddy banquet. The club has had some interesting and outstanding pro- grams alsog one of which was a conference held at Roscoe with Mr. J. E. Hauter, state-field secretary of the Y. M. C. A., as leader. A program was given on the meaning of the four C's, Clean Living, Clean Scholarship, Clean Speech, and Clean Athletics, or the club platform. The regular club and assembly programs are of themselves always outstanding entertainments. The club cooperated with the other organizations and school enterprises by giving money to the Student Council for piano fund.

It was established to offer the Young VVoman's Christian Association programs to high school girls. The pur- pose of the organization is to help the girls to live a truer and nobler life, to face life squarely, and to Find and give the best to the world. It also hopes to give the girls better training in cooperation and leadership. This club participates in many of the city and school ac- tivities. During the Christmas holidays, the girls gave baskets to the poor of the city. In social service work, the club is one of the most active in the city. The members have aided the city in selling poppies and for-get-me-nots, made by the dis- abled veterans, on tag days. During the last year they have given a Christmas Vesper Service which was held in December at the Court Street Methodist Episcopal church. The Trinity Lutheran church orchestra furnished the music for this pro- gram. Janice Ryan was the leader of the Candle Light Service and Miss Mellie John, head of the English Department at Rockford high school, gave a talk. The girls also gave an English Tea in November, at which meeting Miss Katherine Knight discussed teas in England. A stunt day was held on February twenty-eighth, in which all the Girl Reserve Clubs of Rockford participated. The winning club was awarded a silver loving cup. The Blue Triangle group also entertained the sick at the Municipal Sanatorium with a presentation of their Candle Light Service. Many of the meetings are held ill the Y. W. C. A., with the sister club of the high school, the Gratia Norton Girl Reserves. Any girl in Rockford high school who will live up to the code of the Girl Reserves is eligible for membership. The three sides of the triangle emblem for this club stands for Body, Mind and Spirit. Ruth C. Johnson, a very active mem- ber ot' this club, was honored by being elected as a delegate to Camp Gray last summer. Miss Marjorie Gates, the adviser of this club, is assisted by the Misses Mary Louise Irvine and Sally Parmelee.

These were the promotion of better spirit among the athletes in the school, the building of a prestige back of the UR that the men of the school would respect and fight for, and the furnishing of a contact with athletics at the high school for letter men who have been graduated in former years. As a special feature this year an organized cheering sec- tion was developed, this rooting section adding much spirit to the games. The R Club held its annual party on March twenty- eighth in the boys' gym. The affair was semi-formal and pre- sented many new and original features. A grand march of the one hundred and thirty couples was one of the features of the party in which all participated. This year the R Club sponsored several of the rallies held preceding the games. The R Club rallies always were full of pep and were much enjoyed by the students. In 1930-1931 the R Club has had the largest membership since the time of its organization. During the year the num- ber of members reached forty-five. The club has always cooperated with the other school or- ganizations in contributing to the various school funds. This year it contributed to the piano fund and also the schoolground flower fund. The organization hopes to establish better leadership in the school by training its members to the various duties of the athletics contests, such as meeting and taking care of visiting team members who come to compete in games at the high schoolg taking charge of various events in track meetsg and helping to usher at basketball games. In order to be eligible for membership in the UR Club, an athlete must have won an R in either football, basketball, track or swimming. Men who are managers and cheer leaders for these sports are also admitted to the club. Each member must fulfill the requirements contained in the constitution of the club.

The reason for the organization was to give high school girls a Girl Reserve program. The purpose of a Girl Reserve club is to train girls to become leaders by giving them definite responsibilities within the club. Several of the high school Girl Reserves are acting as assistant advisers for grade school Reserve clubs. Thus they carry the leadership ability over into their responsibilities in high school. Gratia Norton has had several outstanding Rockford persons talk to them during this year. Miss Gratia Norton, the sponsor of the club, has spoken on the Early History of the Y. W. C. A. g Miss Theresa Severin, general secretary, told of her five years' experience in Chinag Miss Elizabeth Blaisdell, Busi- ness and Industrial secretary, spoke on Etiquette at one of the meetings. On May fifth, Miss Sarena Dunton, a member of the Rockford high school faculty, gave a talk on the Pas- sion Play which she saw presented in Germany. Along with the social side of the meetings, Gratia Norton club has had skating parties, dueling contests, and supper meet- ings. The Dad and Daughter banquet was an event of the early spring, and Frances Johnson and Malvina Hanson were in charge of the event. The high school club has been attending one Girl Reserve ring discussion each month. Each girl who wishes to earn a Girl Reserve ring must keep a notebook, pass a physical ex- amination, and write a five hundred word theme on What the Girl Reserves Means to Me. If committee of Girl Re- serves believes that the student has passed all the requirements, she will receive a ring at the ceremonial held each year in the beautiful gardens of Mrs. L. Harold Clark. The Girl Reserve program terminates with the close of school, and in July most of the members attend the Y. W. C. A. camp for girls at Camp Rotary. Frances Johnson was sent as a delegate to Camp Gray, Sagautuck, Michigan, last spring, to attend a national Girl Reserve conference. When she returned, she gave several talks before the Y. VV. C. A. board of directors, and before the American Legion Auxiliary. Adam, De La Ronde, Dexter, Ekstrom, Hanson, H.

B. L. Literary Society Any junior or Senior girl who has been recommended by her linglish teacher as a. student having an average of A or B in all her English courses may become a member of the A. B.L. To remain in the club each member must be active on programs, committees, and in other school activities, and in this way obtain the fifteen points required each semester for service. The main purposes of the society are to further the ap- preciation for good literature and to promote friendly feelings between all girls in our high school. At the beginning of the first semester, the club enjoyed a delightful talk on Russian Literature given by Miss Edith Van Duzer. During the rest of the semester the program offered several other interesting speakers on literature. They were as follows: Negro, by Mrs. Lola Robinson, Irish, by Miss Lor- ena Church, German, by Miss Marion Herzogg Latin and Greek, by Dr. Charles Connollyg and Scandinavian, by Miss Mary Carlson. Another notable accomplishment showed the capability and activity of the club when it staged the success- ful and charming Christmas party which took place on De- cember twentieth. One of the outstanding contributions of the club last year was the presentation of a loving cup to the school. This cup is awarded to one Senior girl each year who has been chosen by a group of faculty members as the girl in the senior class who has done the most for her school both in and out of her daily classes. The group of teachers consider service and scholar- ship mainly in selecting the leader. The A.B.L. girls also added to the piano fund, one which was exceedingly helpful to the school. The annual assembly of the club always shows the members to be very capable of entertaining their fellow students. The club was formed in the year of 1921, an outstanding year of the schoolls progress in forming clubs. To be admitted to the organization is, as a whole, one of the great opportunities for a Rockford high school girl to make herself a leader in activities and scholarship.

In his senior year in the corps, he was captain and battalion executive officer. A , , .s . .,. . M. - F- -1 LINDLEY CALVERT HENDRICKSON Cadet Major Battalion Executive Battalion Adjutant Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps The primary purpose of the Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps is to lay the founda- tion of intelligent citizenship by instilling in the student habits of courtesy, precision, accur- acy, initiative, reliability, honesty, orderliness, leadership, correctness of posture and deport- ment, and respect to, and loyalty for, consti- tuted authority. Secondarily, the objective is to prepare him for a position of leadership in time of national emergency. The Rockford high school battalion was first organized in 1917, in response to a wartime movement to establish military training in sec- ondary schools throughout the nation. Hearty support by the student body encouraged the first connnandant, Sergeant George Cockriel, work with a total of nearly At that time, however, the a Hcadet corpsf' becoming a unit in 1921. and he began his two hundred boys. group was merely regular R.O.T.C. Since the Rockford high school unit became a part of the regulation national group, it has been inspected annually by an officer from the Sixth Corps Area headquarters. This review, termed Honor School Inspection, a spring- time event for which the corps prepares dili- gently and enthusiastically, is for the purpose of determining the rating of the various units in the area. The coveted honor rating signifies that the corps is one of ten best in the district. Early in june of each year thc corps stages at Fairgrounds Park the hnal event of the school term, Competitive Drill and Exhibition, a competition between members and units With- in the battalion. Climaxing a year of strenuous study, both theoretical and practical, the bat- talion last year undertook the exhibit with the utmost zeal. Following the numerous drills, the battalion, under the direction of Cadet Major Richard Paget, passed in review before the judges and sponsors. Lieutenant-Governor Fred E. Sterling presented the awards to the various winners of the day. Leland Crandall, who graduated with the Class of '30, carried off high honors, winning the American Legion saber for the commander of the high score com- pany, and the Daily Republic cup for the cadet with the best military and academic standing for the year. Following are the scores made by the units in company drill: A company, Carl Aagaard, captain .......,,....... 0 B company, Leland Crandall, captain .......... 15 C company, Thomas Lindley, captain ,......... 12 D company, Williani Clark, captain ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, 4 The progress of the corps during the past year has been largely due to the untiring eiforts of Colonel Herman Glade, retired army officer, who came to Rockford to take the post of com- mandant of the corps two years ago. v MCLAUGHLIN REMSEN 4 BRODINE GLADE Battalion Range Officer Battalion Supply Officer Sergeant Major Colonel U.

Student leaders of the battalion for the year 1930-1931 have been Cadet Major, Thomas Lindley, first semester commander, who was a successful chairman for the Military Bally and Carlton Page, second term Cadet Major, who led the battalion in the recent Honor School Inspection. Other officers worthy special men- tion are Captain Herbert Calvert, battalion ex- ecutive officer, Lieutenant Everett Hendrick- son, battalion adjutant, and Captains Jack Bey- non and Forest Johnson, Company A, Charles Hughes, Company B5 Wilfred Burdick and Richard Congleton, Company Cg and Donald Soper and Everett Ralston, Company D. Each year the corps elects a group of girls, usually seniors, to act as sponsors, or honorary officers of the battalion. The battalion sponsor, honorary battalion executive, headquarters com- pany sponsor, and four company sponsors com- prise the group of seven. It is largely through their efforts that the Military Ball has become one of the most outstanding social events of the year. They are awarded small silver R.O.T.C. pins, with the Rockford high school emblem en- graved upon them, for their services. 'FOUTCH CONGLETON Sergeant U. S. Army Captain Company C In 1922 the choice marksmen of the battalion were included in the first rifle team. They were awarded R's, with crossed rifles underneath, for their service. Since that time the gallery range has been in almost continual use for shooting practice and rifle matches. During the first few weeks of january of this year, fol- lowing the intramural rifle elimination,,company rifle teams fired in competition. Company A's squad finished victorious, with Company C close behind.

On the sa111e day the riflemen lost the first of a series of matches with the Rockford Gun Club, the score being 1,622 to l,564. As a special award for superior marksmanship throughout the year, pins, in addition to letters, were pre- sented to five members of the team. They are: Forrest Johnson, expert riflemang Robert Mc- Laughlin and Orville Shute, sharpshooters, and Gordon Smith and Harold Allen, marksmen. at RALSTON JOHNSON Captain Company D Captain Company A I2011 ........., an A 'I ffRH Company A Judging Corps Row 1: fziitttziiizi, lirwiu, llziniz-ls, VVL:tty, Pearson, Knorr, Allen, Vlatl- imer.
