FELICIA HEMANS ,Q--,fm V ,, H W kt it Wlifax j EDITURI THE SEA I-IE sea!-it thrills and fascinates us. Since the beginning of the world, the mysterious sea, restlessly tossing and rolling, has inspired the awe and admiration of man. The ancient Greeks and Romans feared and worshipped the wide expanses of water. The early Egyptians used the Mediterranean for commerce but did not venture far in their rude galleys. ln the Middle Ages, super- stitions in regard to horrible sea-monsters still prevailed, and the sailors dared not leave their home shores too far behind lest they encounter some fiery dragon, or, perhaps, sail off the edge of the earth, which was then believed to be Hat. The Phoenicians were the leading sea-farers at this time. With the invention of the compass and the astrolabe, sailing became less dangerous, and the wonderful voyages of discovery followed. The sea was the medium through which the New World was discovered in the fifteenth century. ln fact, the mighty ocean has played a very important part in the history of every nation. Seas have been immeasurably valuable to the world: in commerce, in exploration, in transportation and communication, in furnishing foods, and frequently in serving as an inspiration for beautiful poetry, music, literature, and art. Also, the majestic sea holds a great fascination for us all because of the atmosphere of mystery which has always surrounded it. What better subject could have been chosen for the I933 Bwana? ARLEEN THYSON ROOSEVELT CLUBS Of the many activities from which we at Roosevelt may choose, the most interesting and educational fexcluding, of course, our daily lessonsj are the clubs. Without extra-curricular activities, high school might easily become a monotonous routine. It is only in the clubs that one can follow a particular line of endeavor under the guidance of an adult interested in that work. ln our clubs we develop the future leaders of our school. Through those clubs, talents, long latent, are brought to light. ln our organizations we are brought into contact with many who may become our life-long friends. Follow the advice of Theodore Roosevelt when he said, Carry a big stick, and join a club.

Chal- lenging, fascinating, mysterious, the vast expanse of water will forever inspire the world with awe. How tranquil are its calm, peaceful billows, and how terrible are its roaring, relentless waves! 'What sinister secrets seethe under its silent ripples, what deep mysteries lie beneath its unfathomable depths! The ancient Greeks and Romans had myths and legends explaining the mysterious sea, just as they had legends explaining all other natural wonders. According to Homer, River Ocean, an immense body of water which encircled land and sea, was the source of all things. The Scandinavian belief was that the world was created by Odin, Vili, and Ve, who killed Ymir, the giant, and made the earth from his body and the seas from his blood. Mythology tells that there were two dynasties of the sea. Oceanus and Tethys, the Titans, were the founders of the Older Dynasty. On the floor of the ocean, Oceanus had a magnificent palace, more wonderful than anything on earth. Pontus, an inhabitant of the sea kingdom, became the father of Nereus, who grew to be a famous old seer. Nereus married the nymph, Doris, a daughter of Oceanus. and had fifty beautiful daughters, who were called the Nereids. One of the Nereids, Amphitrite, wedded Neptune, and these two founded the Younger Dynasty of the sea. Thus, through Amphitrite the two dynasties were united. Neptune fcreek, Poseidonj was the god of the sea. His palace was at the bottom of the ocean near Aegae, but he spent part of his time on Olympus. Neptune was very powerful. He could shake the whole earth, destroy huge rocks and arouse or still violent storms. The trident, three-pronged spear, was his symbol of power. Neptune had an uncontrollable temper, and often quarreled with the other gods. At times he shook the earth so turbulently that even Pluto, the powerful god of the underworld, was frightened. As the god of streams and fountains, however, Neptune had a much gentler nature. The god of the sea was the creator of horses and the patron of horse races. Neptune's own horses were Ubrazen-hoofed and golden-manedf' He drove his beautiful chariot over the surface of the seas with many grotesque monsters following him. The sea grew calm before the advancing chariot. Under Neptune were many Hlesser divinities of the waters. There was Triton, Neptune's son, who was the trumpeter of Oceanus. He could incite or calm the waves by blowing upon a sea-shell. Proteus, a wise old man, was another prophet of the deep. He was able to change his form at will. Then there were the Harpies, horrible sea creatures with maidens' heads and birds' bodies, claws, and wings, the Graeae, three ugly, Qld witches who shared one eye: and the awful Gorgons, the sight of whom meant death. The Sirens were sea muses who lured sailors to their doom with beautiful Eighleen L i , g A his-213 ZSHNT H571 singing. Scylla, the six-headed monster, the lower part of whose body consisted of barking dogs and serpents, was another terror to the ancient seafarers. Scylla was eventually changed into a treacherous reef and was thus still a menace to the mariners. Today the indomitable sea-as it has been since the beginning of the world-is still a magnificent representative of power--power now harmful, now helpful. Modern sailors know the dangers of Scyllas, and all fear the lashing of Neptune's uncontrollable wrath. His challenge is yet unanswered, and so till the end of time, Old lnclefatigablen will exert his potent influence over mankind. ARLEEN THYSON INVINCIBLE SEA Oh sea, indomitable sea, Wz'll' thou ever mock at our Attempts at thy mastery?

The great seas as we know them today were utterly unknown in the earliest times and were feared greatly by man. Boys loitering about the wharves of Sidon and Tyre caught snatches of song and story from the seamen of old Phoenicia. How brave these men were, we, today, can hardly realize. They were the first true sons of Neptune, traders who spread colonization and the alphabet. The Phoenicians, however, were extremely jealous of their knowledge of the sea and of navigation. If a strange sail hove in sight, the captain of a ship would try to outsail her, or failing in this, would await the night and silently change course. These first seafaring people were proud of their rather unseaworthy ships with their practically useless mast and square sail. Rather than surrender a ship, they would run it aground and burn it. The Greeks, in their mythology and in the writings of Homer, have left us vivid pictures of the sea. The realm of myth with the voyages of jason and Ulysses is better known than is the progress made by the Greek sailors. A Greek vessel was a handsome crafty a projecting prow, armoured with brass, taking the outlines of a beak, was used in rammingg half decks and a high poop sheltered the warriorsg while a huge rudder, or steering oar, guided the ship. It was about 260 B. C. that Rome became a great sea power. The Romans had kept to the inland sea and plied the blue waters of Mediterranean for centuries. It was at this time that the first great lighthouse was built, the Pharos of Alexandria, six hundred feet above the sea, lit by a bonfire kept burning on its top. I ln the meantime the Carthaginians flourished, and in the voyage of l-lanno made one of the great expeditions of the fifth century before our era. Venice, Queen of the Adriatic, and Genoa, were founded by these people. The cold, blue waters of the northern shore of Europe, of the Baltic and the North Sea, had their seamen. The Norsemen inhabited these bleak, craggy shores. They were a turbulent and piratical people who spent their lives in their long ships. These Norsemen spread out, settled in England and France, while others of their number, Lief Ericson and his crew, pushed across the sea to a new world. It was these hardy Vikings who led the way to the discovery of America. A few centuries later navigation began to grow and flourish still more. Marco Polo told his tales of the East and paved the way for the compass, which was first used by the Chinese. The astrolabe, an instrument for studying the stars, was invented: and studious geographers, piecing together the knowledge which came to them, made charts and maps of the known seas. Twenty-one r. V -.s-.-.r-..-1,,,.7--- One hundred years later, I435, a boy was born in Genoa, Cristaforo Columbo, who was to start the rush of explorations across the sea. Columbus, as early as I474, made known to a learned cosmographer, Paul Toscanelli, his determination to seek a western route to lndia. It was not, however, until August 3, I492, that Columbus enlisted the aid of Spain and started on the greatest voyage in the history of commerce. It was on the night of October I2, I492, that Columbus with his staunch ships, Santa llflllflld. Plinfa, and Nl'na, sighted the shores of a new land. Now came the great age of the discoverers of lands across sea. The voyages of Vespucci along the coast of South America, and of Cabot along the mainland of North America took place. De Gama sailed around Africa to the east, while Ponce de Leon, heroic figure of romance, sailed in search of the Fountain of Youth. Balboa, a swashbuckling gallant, was the first to look upon the great Pacific Ocean. That prince of navigators, Magellan, sailed from Spain, and three years and twenty-seven days later his remaining ship, Victoria, docked at San Lucar. It landed without its great commander, who had been killed while at the Philippine lslands. Sir Francis Drake, the gentleman pirate, plundered the Spanish galleons. The Spanish Armada sent to humiliate England was defeated by Drake and his co-workers, Hawkins and Frobisher, thus giving England supremacy of the seas for their commerce. A decade after the landing of the Pilgrims from the Mayllower, America launched a ship at Salem and began its great career on the sea. ln the seventeenth century the seas were overrun with pirates, the flag of the Jolly Rogers flew boldly over the ships of such great pirates as Morgan and Kidd. Gradually larger and stouter sailing vessels were built and America struggled along on the seas as Europe was threshing out of the web of Napoleon. The war of commerce between the United States and England was fought in I8I2. The victories of Old Ifonslides and the United States gave the young land a feeling of confidence in its men on the seas. Packet ships started, whalemen and merchants sent their ships around the world, and passenger and fast freight ships began service across the Atlantic. The last of the great sailing ships, the clipper, with its tremendous spread of sail, flourished for a space. Steamboats were invented. ln ISI 7 Fulton's steam- boat, the Clermont, had paddled on the Hudson, and in ISI9 the S. S. Savannah sailed across the Atlantic. The Civil War brought ironclacl fighting ships in the Confederate AJGFFIIVTYGC, and the Union MOnz'tOr. The motive power at sea has been increased by the steam turbine, and now the oil burning Diesel engine is superseding steam in ships of average tonnage. Ships like the Leviathan have reached the limit of navigable size, the harbor depths limiting further increase in dimensions. The dimensions of the monster ship are: length, 907.6 feet: breadth, I00.3 feet: depth, 58.3 feet. The gross tonnage is over 55,000 tons. Ships have been perfected and studied until today we have ships of the most advanced type to carry on our commerce' EDWARD A. FISCHER Twenty-two 'ici-213 ZSilNIs45vfJ COLUMBIA GLACIER-ALASKA COAST GLACIER AND SNOW-CAPPED MOUNTAINS-INNER PASSAGE- ALASKA Twen iq-Ihre-e my-.f is VSCKN e SENTINELS OF THE SEA BOARD our Vessel all is confusion. The captain, the mate, all of the crew are running wildly from deck to deck, no one knowing just what to do. Upon inquiry we find that we are nearing the dreaded Shinnecock Shoals. The second mate knows the approxi- mate position of the ship, but an error of even one degree is sufficient to send us to destruction on those rocks, and now, to top it all, this fog has settled down on us. Life-preservers are distributed. Anxious fathers and half-crazed mothers dash to and fro gathering their family. Little children and babies, frightened by this unnatural bustle, cry-they know not just why they should, but they do. Suddenly there is a grating, scraping noise, a terrific bolt-the ship has gone aground. ln the sudden, momentary silence that hangs like a pall over the boat, we can hear the crash of waves as they break on the rocks, and we begin to wonder if life-boats can be of any use on such a sea: the answer is: they can't. Tomorrow on the second page we will at last make the headlines: St. Louisans Lost as Ship Grounds on Shoal. That might well be a true picture but for one thing-it wouldn't happen. lnstead, as we neared the shoals, we should see a light seemingly floating in space, blink, blink, blinking assuredly as we calmly and safely sailed on. The lighthouse would prevent any such catastrophe. Lighthouses have prevented such occurrences for thousands of years, until now we take them as a mere matter of course. Guiding lights for ships at sea have been known ever since the discovery of ships, it is even possible that Noah saw a lighthouse or two on his noted voyage. The ancestor of all modern lighthouses, however, is the Egyptian lighthouse at Pharos. This was a 460 foot pyramid constructed about 250 B. C. its illumination was furnished by an oak-log bonfire at the peak, and its light is reported to have been visible forty miles at sea. Because of this first great beacon, the science of lighthouses is today known as pharology, and a light is known as a pharos. Another old lighthouse was the world- famed Colossus of Rhodes, a huge, IO5-foot high representation of Apollo holding aloft a brazier in which the light for the beacon was kept burning. Colossus is reported to have stood with one foot on one side of the harbor and the other on the opposite side, and, although many doubt the story, it is known that this was a huge and unique lighthouse. Down through the ages man has constructed lighthouses, always on the tower motif, but it was not until the construction of the Eddystone light that modern lighthouses came into existence. Perhaps it would be well to recount the building of this house, for the construction demonstrates the perseverance necessary to construct a tower. ln I695 the first lighthouse was built of stone on Edclystone point off the coast of England, but this was destroyed by a gale. ln 1706 a second tower of oak timbers was constructed, and, just to show Twenty-four kt is 2 'Feed Plane.

The next attempt was made in cast iron, but a gale completely ruined the work just before the lantern was installed. Undaunted, in 1806 the English raised another entirely new and distinctive tower of granite 1 10 feet highg it endured. ln 1858 the beacon was raised 146 feet above the sea, and there it stands today, a monument to man's ingenuity, and pure stubbornness. The first light in America was raised in ISI 7 and was placed just outside Boston. This light had its troubles toog it was burned in 1775, blown up in 1776, reconstructed in 1783, and extinguished in I8I2g but today it is still guiding ships into Boston. This Boston light was one of the first to use oil, a primitive method, but vastly superior to the tallow candles then in use. imagine a lighthouse with a candle as its only beacon! Since then gas has displaced oil, acetylene has displaced gas, and electricity has displaced acety- lene, oil, gas, and candles. We certainly have made advances in lighting. So much for the history of the lighthouses, now for their mechanics and some interesting facts about them. As you can see in the accompanying illustration, a lighthouse is built of dovetailed stones, a principle developed on the Ecldystone light by Mr. Stevenson, father of Robert Louis Stevenson. It is this dovetailing that makes a lighthouse so durable. Lighthouses are beautifully shaped and extremely symmetrical for a practical reason. The sides are curved to reduce wind pressure, the towers are stately to keep the light above the spray, the markings are distinctive to make the lighthouse a landmark by day as well as by night, in fact, every portion is utilitarian Hrst, beautiful later. Even the light has a Ucharacterf' Each light is distinctive, different from its fellows, and the experienced navigator recognizes each. Suppose he is cruising along on an inky black night, he is-heaven knows where. Then he sees a light in the distance. A white Hash, thirty secondsg a white Hash, thirty secondsg a third Hashg immediately he knows that this is the Boston light. Perhaps a little later he again begins to wonder about his location. Another light-a white Hash, ten secondsg a white Hash, ten seconds, a white Hash, ten secondsg a red Hash-lVlartha's Vineyard. You could set a sea captain down in an ocean ftry it some timeb, forget to tell him what ocean it is, let him see one light, and he'll tell you his approximate position, let him see two, and he'll tell you his exact position. All of these Hashes are accom- plished by a complicated arrangement of lenses that allow not a ray to escape uselessly or be wasted. Another interesting automatic device is found in unattended lighthouses, some of which are visited about once in two years. This is an acetylene burner using a gas which is a product of the reaction of water and calcium carbide. Once in a great while, someone visits the house with some of the compound, adds water, and leaves it alone. The gas regulates its own How by its pressure, and turns itself up and down at appropriate times. Twenty -six 'Ks-'EB JKINTHSQJ It is also interesting to note that all lights are not exactly alike. There is a making light which warns the mariner when he is nearing landg a warning light which points out dangerous spots: a leading light which does just that, leads the ship to landg a coasting light which marks out a coast: and port light which indicates the final port. Each light is different. The making light is a blinking one, the coast light is a steady one, and the others differ just as much. Now let us see just what lighthouses mean to man at the present time. Suppose we are coming to New York. Two hundred miles out we see the Nantucket Lighthouse encouragingly beckoning us onwardg then we see the Block lsland light. As we leave its protecting beam, we see the old and picturesque house on Montauk Point. We safely round the point to intercept the rays of Shinnecock light. Our next protector is the famous Fire lsland light-ship and we barely leave it when we enter the glare of the shore-lights which overlap for miles along the coast. Our next guide is the Navesink, and we then enter Ambrose Channel brilliantly illuminated by two lights. Our port lights now come in pairs, the West Bank and the Staten lsland lights, and the North Hook and Sandy Hook lights. Craven Shoals is marked by yet another light, and now as we swing into view of Manhattan, we see the greatest lighthouse of them all-the STATUE OF LIBERTY. We have come in to the city on a brilliantly lighted waterway, the White Way of the Atlantic. We have been guided and protected by the guiding lights of the sea at every step, or should l say knot? We have profited by the work of ages, the most beneficient of all maritime inventions-the SENTINELS OF THE SEA. ARTHUR KUHL THE LIGHTHOUSE The lighthouse Stands so far away: It seems so strong, so dark, so cold: But, without the friendly, guiding ray, The ships would not be quite so hold. The lighthouse Sends forth such a beam It covers all the dark, blue sea. The ships search anxiously for the gleam That seems to warn or makes cz plea.

I began swimming when I was about eight years old, learning first under water. It was much easier that way, for I had only to learn the stroke and not worry about keeping my head above. Later on, after I had learned to swim fairly well, both on the surface and under, I was attracted more and more to the deeper strata. I turned my attention seriously to contrivances for lengthen- ing my time from two minutes to fifteen or more. Various and sundry were the inventions I made, most of them dismal failures and others only partially successful. I tremble now, thinking about some of the contraptions to which I entrusted my life. One of these was mainly a rubber tube which I held in my mouthg the other end was connected to a floating tin can with a perforated top, thru which air was to be drawn into the tube, and thru it into my mouth. I made ready for the trial. Finding a large stone to make me sink, I jumped off the dock into about ten feet of water. I sank down and stood on the bottom. Then for the trial! I closed my mouth tightly around the tube and tried to draw in a mouthful of air. It was impossible! I realized to my horror that the pressure was too great. I-lere I Was, on the bottom with a large rock for company, and my lungs bursting for air. Thank God, I didn't lost my head! I started for shore. I-low far away it seemed! ln reality, it was only about fifteen feet. Slowly and painfully I came up. I saw the surface near and, with one final stagger, reached it. I lay half on the bank and half in the water, gulping clown delicious quantities of fresh, pure air. Needless to say, this made me more careful in mv vcnfurcs. At last, about a year ago, I made my first really successful contrivance. lt is -- the one with which I have made many A enjoyable dives. It has an oval shape F and is built to fit snugly over the head, ' . law '- chest, and back. It has a small oblong mmf - window in front which is set off from the ' 5 helmet proper. The air is pumped down 7 ,iff by an over-size automobile pump. The f ,.ff, f' air leaves the pump and is forced down a regular garden hose which is connected to the top of the helmet. By the way, I built the helmet out of an old gasoline tank. The plate glass window was originally part of an automobile windshield. Fastened around the helmet are ingots of lead to overcome its buoyancy. The exhaled air escapes thru a vent in the back. The whole helmet weighs fifty-odd pounds. Twenty-nine 7-f -ff'-f ' f ki-Qil3 ,MNH Perhaps the most interesting descent I made was in an abandoned gravel quarry not far from St. Louis. I remember this dive especially because it was one of the first ones. Two friends of mine and I were going on a camping trip during the summer of 1932, I took my helmet along. Next morning, after a hike, we reached the quarry. But what hike! Walking with over fifty pounds across one's shoulders is no fun! This place was ideal-a huge, jagged hole in the middle of a meadow. Round about stood heaps of old, rusted, mining machinery. There wasn't a soul for miles around. The side I picked out was a fairly steep slope running down into the water. I changed to my swimming suit and swam out, making a few preparatory dives to ascertain the character of the ground underneath the water. It was excellent, just a sloping bank going deep into the water as far as I could go without my helmet. I swam back and regained my breath. Now for the dive! I coated the inside of the window with glycerine to prevent my breath from condensing on it. I inspected the air-line and strapped my bayonet around me. I carried the bayonet to cut myself free should I run into any difficulty. I also put large rubber boots on so I wouldn't cut my feet on the jagged bottom. Everything was in readiness! I slipped on my helmet and started down the slippery, gravel slope toward the water. My feet were already in, the water was filling my boots-lower-lower. I was in to my chest: I raised my hand as a signal for my companions to start pumping, and started forward. The water passed rapidly up over the window and I was completely under. I felt the heavy weight of the helmet suddenly lightened. The pounding of the air in my helmet was terrific. I was too much occupied watching the slope ahead as I descended to notice much else. I had no need for my lamp for the water was quite clear. I went down-ten, twenty, twenty-five, or thirty feet as far as I could judge, then the ground leveled out. I was on the bottom! Only thirty feet down, and yet I wish I could describe the sensations that passed thru me. Perhaps it sounds fanciful, but I felt as if I were in a world of my own. All about me was an opaque, green color: green, green, even my hands, strangely bloated and magnified, were green. I had a curious detached feeling, as if I were cut off from the rest of the world. I heard only the pounding of the air entering my helmet. I had no trouble breathing, how queer that seemed here on the bottom! I glanced backward. There was the slope I had just descended. It looked terribly steep. I glanced up, there was my air line, trailing upward, till hazy and dim, it passed out of sight in the greenness. I seemed to have entirely different thoughts there in that world of green than in this prosaic, upper world. As I looked at that pulsing, throb- bing thing thru which my companions were sending me life, I was filled with a strange feeling of contentment. I glanced around me. Stretching off to the right and left, and in front, the land merged with the shadows of the distance, perhaps forty feet away. Thirt y .. kms-15613 riiflwqgf Dimly, far ahead of me, I saw a smudge in the distance. Deciding to investi- gate, I started forward. Losing for a while, the thought of my objective, I took an interest in my mode of progress thru that dense medium, leaning far forward against the water, I pushed myself, rather than walked thru the water. I was breathing hard already. I had taken about a dozen lunges when I glanced up, remembering the dimly-seen smudge. A shock ran thru me! Lying on the bottom, perhaps twenty feet away, was a long,low, black object. l drew my bayonet from its sheath. A fine protection it would make to such as this! I stood still, clutching the bayonet tightly. The thing was slowly moving back and forth. I hoped the hideous din in my helmet was not so noticeable outside. I stood there while the monster moved spasmodically from side to side. I summoned as much courage as possible and advanced a few, slow steps. The monster was an old, sunken boat swaying gently in the current. Ashamed of my stupidity, I thrust my bayonet back into its sheath and turned slowly away, calling myself names not found in Webster's. Soon forgetting this, however, in delight at my surroundings, I started slowly forward. Having seventy-five feet of hose with me, I could go for quite a distance. I hadn't gone far, though, when I saw another black shape. l approached this one hurriedly to try to atone for my previous misadventure. It proved to be a stump and, as I was tired from my unusual exertions, both mental and physical, I sat down. As I sat there, I lost myself in admiration of this unique world of green only thirty feet from the surface. Suddenly I saw a little fish hovering in front of my porthole, his feathery fins waving slowly back and forth. I pondered over the queerness of this little fellow as he floated outside looking me straight in the eyes. I wondered what he could be thinking about, as he tarried there, his goggle eyes protruding from the sides of his queerly-shaped head. Suddenly with a little flirt of his tail he turned and scurried off. I was answered. He had been thinking the same thoughts I had- What a freakish monstrosity this is! I remained sitting there on that old water-logged stump under the water for a long time, gazing about me. I looked at my hands, and saw they were covered with washerwoman's wrinkles. Realizing that I had been down over half an hour, I turned and slowly, following the hose, picked my way back to the start of the incline. Up this I had to go practically on all fours, being extremely careful not to tilt my helmet, because the water would immediately rush in. I had had a nearly disastrous occurrence like that before. I made my way successfully toward the surface and finally broke water. I called a cheery welcome to my companions, waded out, and lay down at full length on the bank. We stayed there in the warm afternoon sun for a long time, talking about my enjoyable sojourn live fathoms down. ROBERT DOSE Thirty-one gl-tg? iz 1 4 BIRDS OF THE SEASHORE IEWING the sea for the first time, one gazes at a never-to-be- forgotten scene. Yet how much is added to the charming picture by flashes of black or white, the sea-coast birds, giving life and beauty to the scene as they dart here and there or mix with the foaming water! ln many ways the sea birds are some of the most wonderful of living creatures. They can swim lightly and easily in the deepest seas and severest storms: they get their food where the most powerful of land animals could not live for more than a few minutes: and the ease, grace, and strength with which they Hy cannot be matched. For its perfection of flight, for its stately and graceful appearance while sailing through the air, and for its untiring strength, the albatross holds first place and may rightly be called the king of the sea birds. There are seven species of the bird, many of which are white. One, however, is so dull in color that it is often called the sooty albatross. The one most generally known is called the wanderer. It is about four feet long, and its outspread wings from tip to tip measure about ten to seventeen feet. With such a spread of wings, it cannot easily get a start from the ground but seeks a rocky place. It is in the air that the albatross appears at its best. A few flaps of its mighty wings send it high into the air where it sails like a feathered ship and floats and glides swiftly and easily for hours with scarcely a tremor of its wings. The albatross has not been much studied by scientists, but is a good friend of the sailor, and it has become famous in literature and legend, especially through Coleridge's Ancient Mariner. The albatross likes live fish, jelly fish, and various other sea creatures. It is not a dainty eater, however, and will eat the flesh of a dead whale or fly above a ship greedily waiting to swoop down and catch the food thrown overboard from it. And a good south wind sprung up behind The albatross did follow, And every day, for food or play, Came to the mariner's hollof' Next to the stately albatross are the gulls and petrels. When it was thought that a certain breed existed only in one section, the beautiful petrel fooled science by appearing in several others. Most of the small petrels nest in barrows or on rocky cliffs. This little bird seems to walk upon the watery even in the roughest seas it may be seen skipping over the waves. It flutters its wings only enough to give its feet the support needed to maintain its balance and keep the little body afloat. Thus swiftly and lightly it skims the waves, waiting to snatch the creatures which the storm waves bring to the surface. The giant petrel of the Antarctic fnext largest to the albatross, is especially fond of penguin eggs and young penguins. Thirty-two Ev, . . ktiiflfi i JZSKNTHEJ The skua is a variety of gull measuring twenty- 1 V i ' four inches or more. It is a family of several species, some of which make their nests in the frozen regions, while others are scattered over the warmer seas. They will eat the flesh of whales, birds, and ani- mals although their proper food is fish. They obtain them by fiercely attacking the smaller birds that have just caught a fish. The smaller birds, thoroughly frightened, drop their prey and dart away, while the skua swoops down and catches the fish before it reaches the water. Many of the sea birds are not seen by people who do not make voyages across the ocean. This is not so with the gulls. Near the sea or some great lake, the gulls may be seen far inland, for they like the grub-worms and insects found in the soil. It is common to see a crowd of graceful gulls following the plow, eager to pick up the living things which it brings to the surface. The small gulls are content with worms, but the large ones, such as the black-backed, measuring twenty-eight inches from back to tail, blind and kill lambs and baby deer. Another family of gulls is the tern or sea-swallow. It has a longer, straighter beak than the ordinary gull and the tail is long and forked. Terns are even more numerous than gulls and are found near the sea in all climates. They fly as skillfully and speedily as a land swallow and live mainly on fish which they obtain by keeping their bills under water as they fly. Out from the coast of Maine many herring gulls live on Great Duck lsland where man, an unwelcome visitor, is greeted with the screams and attack of a mass of these birds. A bird which would add beauty to any background is the handsome tropic bird, one of the loveliest of sea birds. It has ivory feathers tinged with pink except at the tip of the wings and around the eyes where the feathers are black. It has two streaming feathers in its tail. The puffins are funny little birds with large colored beaks and are called sea-parrots. In spite of their appearance they have a gay time, and fly, swim, and dive beautifully. The most famous of all diving birds, however, is the loon, a very handsome creature about a yard in length, that can remain under water for eight minutes and pop down again as soon as it has taken a breath. JEANNETTE MATHAE Thirty-three J..- W1 I H THE FRIGATE CONSTITUTION Ay, tear her tattered ensign down! Long has it waved on high, And many an eye has danced to see That banner in the skyg Beneath it rung the battle shout, And burst the cannons roar:- The meteor of the ocean air Shall sweep the clouds no more. Old lronsiilesw by O. XV. Holmes l-lROUCul-l his famous and much beloved poem, Old Ironsides. Oliver Wendell Holmes, in the year I830, saved the life of the frigate Constitution which had been condemned by the Navy Department to be destroyed. During the century that followed, this old frigate was used largely for exhibition purposes. A few years ago, through the pennies of America's school-children, she was restored to her present condition. Now the Constitution is ready once again to sail the high seas. After having been in Atlantic ports for more than a year, she is on her way to visit the West Coast. Let us review the events which have made this ship immortal. The U. S. ship Constitution was constructed under the act of Congress of March 27, I794, and was successfully launched on October Zl, at Boston. ln I799, shortly after her construction, while under Captain Talbot, she was challenged to engage in a trial of speed with the frigate of an English captain. The prize, a cask of wine, was won by the Constitution sailed by Lieutenant l-lull-Executive Officer. At Tripoli, she did brave Work under Commodore Preble. She entered the harbor under hostile guns and silenced them, in defiance of their terrible fire. For two hours she endured the merci- less storm of the batteries, with but slight injury, although she received twelve shots in her hull. ln i806 Lieutenant l-lull was made captain of the Constitution. ln I8I2, when he was in Portsmouth, England, in command, he resolved not to be caught unprepared through the sly movements of the British. By April he had his men ready and waiting for trouble. About the middle of the month, the Constitution left port and proceeded to sea, followed by several men-of- war. She was able to outsail all but one of the British ships, which she led. Hull waited to see if the enemy wanted to fight but, when she did not offer to attack, he moved on. The event known as the Chase of the Constitution made her very popular at home, and she began to be spoken of in out-of-the-way places. This incident took place shortly after the war had begun. Captain l-lull Thirty-four .-ff' ,,,, '. Courtvvy of St. Louis Post-Disp I THE RECONDITIONED FRIGATE CONSTITUTION OLD IRONSIDESU Thirty-Hue R213 Hive' had just returned from Annapolis, where he had received a new crew, many of whom had never been on an armed ship. On the seventh of July, having left harbor five days before, they saw four ships to the northwest. These ships, afterwards discovered to be the British Squadron under Captain Broke, joined by the Guerriere, sought to capture the Constitution but, due to Captain l-lull's admirable management of the difficult retreat, the ship was able to escape. One particular stratagem that Captain l-lull used to gain time is worthy of notice. When a sudden squall came up, the ship heeled over, and the sails were hauled up by brails and clew-lines, causing, apparently, utmost confusion. The ever-watchful enemy hastened to make everything snug before the storm, but no sooner had they furled their sails than the Constitution darted ahead. There was no doubt about the bravery and skill of these American seamen. ln any encounter with trained British squadrons, of about equal numbers, the Americans were sure to give a good account of themselves. The good ship made her way to Boston, knowing that the British squadron was blockading off Sandy l-look. At Boston, Hull heard nothing from the Navy Department, so he left port, fearing that, if he remained, the British might shut him up in the bay. Two weeks later, he received a message from an American vessel bound for New York that Commodore Daires of the British frigate, Guerriere, would be glad to meet the U. S. frigate President, or any other ship of equal strength, off the coast of Sandy l-look. The same day Hull remarked that, if he could keep from action a few days longer, he could meet any frigate. When ten days had passed, l-lull learned that an English frigate had been seen sailing south, so he changed his course, hoping to come up with her. The desire to meet an English frigate was uppermost in the minds of the officers and crew of the Constitution, At two o'clock, Wednesday, August I9, when they were off Halifax, the lookout from the masthead sang out, 'Sail l-lol' 'Where away?' shouted the officer of the deck. 'Two points off the larboard, sirl' was the reply. This proved to be his Britannic lVlajesty's ship, the Guerriere, under Daires. It was to the COnStitution'S good fortune to meet this ship which was called the terror of the world. During the battle between these two ships, which represented the strength of England and America, the Constitution received the name of Old lronsidesf' a name which has remained and which has given her a world-wide reputation. She was given this name by the English on the Gtlerriere, because a few large shots struck the side of the Constitution, and fell out. So hard was the Georgia live-oak that she seemed to have sides of iron. After this battle, great rejoicing went on in America, and l-lull was honored in many ways. ln Great Britain the people were Hlled with incredulity and Thirty-six Wt I H5 wonder that an American frigate could destroy one of the stoutest ships of the British Navy, leaving it only a name. When the war was over, this proud ship was assigned to serve as the flagship of the Pacific Heet, and ninety-three years ago made her voyage of assignment. She reached the West Coast by sailing around the Horn, fit in timber and crew for any dangers she might meet. Now, although only fifteen per cent of the original frigate remains, the spirit of Old Ironsidesu will always remain undimmed in our memories, and live forever.

' HEN we hear or read of the finding of a sunken ship or treasure, we may not think of the one who is instrumental in the dis- covery of it. Kipling, in his poetry and prose, has immor- talized the man-of-warsmen, the builders of bridges, and V Robert Louis Stevenson has made famous the plucky deeds of lighthousemenf' yet the lonely, dangerous work of those who descend into the depths of the sea is much more romantic and less well- known than that of these men. The art of deep-sea diving is perhaps as old as the human race. A mention of diving occurs in Homer's Iliad. Some references to diving are made in the writings of Thucydides and Aristotle, the latter telling of mechanical apparatus used by the divers. It was not until I8I9 that a really practical dress was invented by Augustus Siebe, founder of a now well-known business firm. l shall describe the modern deep-sea diver's costume as it is now made and worn, although l shall not attempt to discuss the various stages of its development. The dress consists of three parts, exclusive of such accessories as the pump, the air pipe, the telephone, and the life-line. First, the dress itself is made of sheet lndia-rubber, faced both inside and out with specially tanned twill, and is of great strength and durability. It covers the diver's body from feet to neck, but leaves his hands free, the sleeves ending in water- tight cuffs at the wrist. Secondly, the breastplate, like the helmet, is of tin-plated copper, and is held to the rubber collar of the dress by screws and nuts, which are adjusted so as to press the rubber collar between an outer metal uflangen and the breastplate itself, thus forming a water-tight joint. Thirdly, the helmet, also made of tinned copper, is fastened to the neck of the suit and breastplate. ln this headpiece there are three windows of half-inch glass, secured in brass frames. There is a valve attached to a pipe, through which comes the air pumped from above. This valve is called a non-return and is very important, for, if the air-pipe is broken, the valve closes and allows but a short time for the diver to realize his danger and to act for safety. A second valve in the helmet lets out the air which has been breathed. The helmet is also fitted with conductors by means of which the air supply is conveyed over the three glass windows before being deflected to the diver's face for breathing, thus preventing the glasses from becoming obscured by the condensation of the diver's breath. The weights carried by the diver to overcome the natural buoyancy of the water, and thus to enable him to sink, are two heart-shaped slabs of lead weighing forty pounds each. They rest on the back and front of the breast- Thirr y-eight 'Thirty -nzne -1: Q Q :, 'D Q. 's O .-J ., V7 ... : O U yof ER IV D THE SEA V Y Y, . .. k Wt It Hiffj plate, while the stout leather boots, which are laced over the foot-piece of the water-tight dress, have leaden soles weighing sixteen pounds each. Electric lamps and telephones are provided the diver so that not only has he the means of seeing around him, but he can also communicate with those above him. Sometimes one wonders how the diver's outfit is made to withstand the great pressure of the water, and how it protects him from bodily harm, for we know that the body of the diver at a depth of thirty-three feet under water is subjected to a total pressure of about 64,800 pounds. The dress, with the exception of the helmet and the breastplate, which is made principally of rubber and canvas, protects him but little from this pressure, which, however, is so equable that no bodily harm is caused by it. If similar pressure were exerted on only one portion of the body of the diver, he would be crushed like an egg-shell, but the pressure on one part tends to counteract the pressure on another, so that no dislocation or injury is caused. Then, too, the air, which is forced clown the pipe supplying the diver when under water, is at a pressure equal to, or slightly in excess of, that of the outside water. The result is that he inhales air at a high pressure, and this air, after being taken into the blood, is forced by the pressure into froth and bubbles, and some of the tissues of the body give off this air slowly, so that if a man comes up suddenly, many of these bubbles remain in his blood, thus causing paralysis or even death. To guard against this and at the same time to permit the bubbles to disappear, a man must take a long time in coming up out of the Water, the approximate rate of speed in ascending being about two feet per second. A recent newspaper article announced that a robot river for deep-sea work has been invented by a German engineer, Hans Phillip. Here is a quotation from this article: Shaped much like a polywog, the diver is said to be capable of resisting the tremendous oceanic pressure some l0,000 feet down, and attaining that level by self-propulsion. Special types, the inventor says, will be able to reach the remotest depths. The apparatus weighs two and a half tons and, upon sinking, the inner pressure is automatically adjusted to the water pressure by means of graduated evaporation of liquid air. The 'brains' of the robot are provided by the human pilot, who sits in an inner cell especially constructed to withstand the enormous pressure of the air released in the outer cell. l-le manipulates the craft by a series of rudder controls. A hollow sphere, mounted on a rod and attached to the exterior roofs, acts like a buoy and keeps the craft upright. Electricity, reaching the craft from the escort vessel by means of a cable, provides motive power, drives the tools, and heats the liquid air. A curfous feature is an iron snout which projects from the front. Regulated from within, it is designed to saw, cut, or fasten its hold on objects. The inner cell contains a telephone, com- pass, and controls for the motor and mechanism. A small window provides a viewg a powerful searchlight above it lights the way. The body has a Forty to Wtf H571 stream-line form. It has a maximum diameter of only five and a quarter feet. The diver can navigate at a speed of two and a half miles an hour with a one-and-a-half kilowatt direct current motor. The diver may open a new field for scientific research and may prove invaluable in finding wrecks because it can stay under water for hours at a time. If this new invention is a great success, it will revolutionize deep-sea diving in regard to the recovery of ships and treasures, and, above all, will lessen the danger to the divers engaged in the work. There are few professions or trades more exciting or hazardous than that of the deep-sea diver, and many are the tales of peril and adventure which can be told by these veterans of the deep.

All these things existed in times long past, for piracy started with the beginning of the seafaring activities of man. Homer, in the Odyssey, speaks of pirates and we know that piracy was extensively practiced in Chinese waters when China was at the height of her old civilization. Even to-day one reads occasionally of Chinese pirates. At first pirates were respected and considered gentlemen of high rank, but as civilization progressed, piracy was condemned by international law. ln order to end these high-handed raids on the sea, the extreme penalty was invoked, punishment was usually meted out by hanging the culprits from the yard-arm of a ship. Many of these raiders were noted for, and greatly feared because of, their extreme cruelty to prisoners and their torture of them. We read of buccaneers who tore their victims limb from limb upon the wheel or broke them upon the 'irackf' iiwalking the plank was quite a common form of torture, and the unfortunate victims were forced to walk on beds of red hot coals. Such well known pirates as Captain William Kidd, Captain Avery, and Bartholomew Roberts became famous through their acts of wrong-doing, but they did not indulge in such cruel methods as did their predecessors. These men were also called 'ifreebootersf' and were literally umen without a country. They plundered any ship they were able to capture, regardless of the flag she flew, and they used the spoils as they saw fit. Despite the severe penalty for this form of robbery, piracy continued to flourish as long as a market could be found for the ill-gotten gains. The last stronghold of piracy existed along the Barbary coast of northern Africa. These Barbary corsairs, as they were called, had long been protected by the native rulers of northern Africa, but in 1815, Stephen Decatur, in com- mand of a United States fleet, crushed their activities forever. To-day piracy has been wiped out completely except, perhaps, along the Chinese coasts where bands of pirates occasionally loot small ships when the opportunity presents itself. The plunder secured by these outlaw bands, however, is relatively small, and little or nothing has been done to stop their depredations. We find that instead of fierce brutal fiends there were also pirates who were gentlemen of refinement and of high standing in the sight of their countrymen. This was not the only difference, but these so-called gentlemen carried on their trade with a different feeling in their heartsg one of patriotism to their country. This field of endeavor was termed uprivateeringf' but the fundamental idea was closely related to piracy: namely, to capture or plunder treasure in the form of gold, silver, Silks, or spices, from other ships. Forty-two 'IBVVZYNQ-41571 To understand this action, we must consider conditions in Europe during the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries. All the seafaring countries were competing for the control of the ocean even though peace prevailed on land. The sea-powers of the various nations were continually at blows to secure the superiority they coveted. ln these conflicts the services rendered by the rogue Ufreebootersu were not to be overlooked, and in many instances sea captains turned from patriotic fighting to buccaneering. The governments concerned often encouraged privateering but usually did so secretly. Perhaps the most noted privateer of all times was the famous Sir Francis Drake, an English gentleman, courtier, and explorer of repute. Drake was the commander of E.ngland's famous Sea Dogs, a group of privateers that proved to be very detrimental to Spain in the numerous wars fought against that country. The Sea Dogs repeatedly captured Spanish ships carrying bars of silver and gold from Spain's colonies in the New World. One cannot help but admire the courage displayed by bands of men like the Sea Dogs, who often risked their lives while carrying on their raids. Nor was America without her privateers. During the war of I8IZ, the United States had no navy to speak of, but the hordes of American privateers who roamed the seas at the time, did their part of the fighting by looting and sinking countless English merchant vessels loaded with supplies for the British troops in this country. Privateering was abandoned soon after the war of I8I2. To be sure, though some of us may justify the acts of the privateer, none of us will justify the activities of piratesg but whatever our opinion may be, it goes Without saying that the history of the sea would not be so colorful had it not been for the pirates and privateers. Perhaps, some day when Davy Jones' locker is opened, many secrets of ships that were scuttledn by those romantic figures in history will be disclosed. Who knows?

K Wlf H571 A ROOSEVELTIAN ON THE BOARDVVALK H TLANTIC CITY, we are here, chorused some seventy-odd lusty voices as thelr owners tumbled pell-mell from the motor caravans which had brought them a thousand hot, dusty miles from good old St. Louis to the Riviera of the United States, where the hotel lists read like a social register of the East and where thousands go to have a good time and drown their troubles. We had arrived at last, after a two week's jaunt from the metropolis of the Show Me State. Patiently we had awaited this dayg as we passed through Indianapolis, Dayton, Columbus, Gettysburg, yes, and even during our four-day sojourn at Washington, D. C., the urge to press on to this popular New Jersey watering-place was strong and now, presto, it was revealed in all its beauty before our eyes. We camped that day on the flying field about half a mile from the beach, and our tents really went up in a hurry, 'cause every boy in the crowd wanted to be the first into his swimming suit and then into the buses again, ready for a lift to the very edge of the continent and a cool, invigorating, and salty plunge into the mighty Atlantic. Forty-Hue kg W4 H L l might explain that we were a group of seventy-five St. Louis Boy Scouts on the First Roving Tour sponsored by the St. Louis Council, making a thirty-day tour of the East. Thirty-two of us, from four troops, had been awarded the trip as the result of our endeavors in a city-wide Scout contest, so we were getting something for nothing in a big way. As we neared the boardwalk, we could hear the roar of the mighty breakers as they came rushing in on the beach. After a thirty-second traffic halt which seemed interminably long, we were out of the buses and streaking it under the Boardwalk and out across the shade into the briny deep. Brrr! Cold? Very! But we were too exhilarated to let that bother us and soon were enjoying the waves to our hearts' content. There is a technique which a person must acquire if he is to enjoy ocean bathing to the utmost. It consists of wading out until he is almost beyond his depth, then picking out a big usweepern and diving in toward shore just when it hits him. Oftentimes, if he gets a good start, the waves will carry him one hundred feet or more in toward the beach. lt's really great sport! l had to learn to keep my mouth tightly closed at all times when in the ocean, however, because salt, without food, isn't palatable. l'll never forget one time when l forgot to obey the advice and relieved the ocean of about ten gallons of salt, water, seaweed, and such. l came out and stayed out!- for a while anyway. , Our first evening on the Boardwalk was an eventful one, as was, in fact, every moment of our all-too-brief stop at this dream city. Five of us set out, determined to do the Boardwalk, first on one side, next on the other, and then try a strong-armed sally down the very middle. We learned upon inquiry, however, that the Walk is only eight miles long, so, deciding to post- pone our more lengthy ambulations till the morrow, we strolled up and down the more thickly populated area, sampled freely fbut not inexpensively, a delicious confection at that time unheard of in St. Louis, namely, frozen custard, did a lot of window shopping, then decided to call it a day and head for camp and our waiting sleeping bags. Next morning we saw a glorious sight-the sun rising out of the ocean. A feeling of awe pervaded the camp, to be dispelled abruptly by our genial colored cook's Come and get it. After another morning of water-sports in the realm of Neptune, we put on our uflneryn and went a-visiting. The objects of our attention were the Heinz C57 Varietiesj and Steel Piers, both of which extend a long distance out into the Atlantic. On these piers we were entertained by a radio studio program and a troupe of vaudeville actors, we also had the privilege of sampling a few of the Heinz products. Finally we were dragged away! Another swim, and we were all set for a big night, the eve of July Fourth. We were to leave early the next morning for New York, so we wanted to get as much seen and done as we could. I-'orty-six XVZXN af-1511 As we promenaded midst the joyous shouts of holiday visitors, we could see giant skyrockets sail out over the ocean, burst into multi-colored stars and fade away. Romance was in the air. A smile was on every face. That is one salient feature of Atlantic City, its gayetyp the spirit of joy is catching. l don't remember when l have spent a happier, gayer, and more enjoyable evening than that last one at Atlantic City. Hour after hour we walked up and down, imprinting indelibly on our minds a memory which time will not erase, a memory of bright lights, happy faces, soft music, magnificent firework displays, and, above all, the ceaseless roar of the tide as it kept rushing against the beach. As we slowly wandered back to our canvas dwellings in the wee sma' hours, in the heart of each of us was a tinge of regret at having to leave such a scene of tumultuous enjoyment. Arising with the sun again, we hastily struck camp, consumed a hurried breakfast and were all ready to continue our pilgrimage to New York, Niagara Falls, and intermediate points. A last, hasty clip in the salt water and we formed for a march through town to meet the buses at the outskirts. Past the City Hall, the City's Official Buildings, and tall eclihces emphasizing the presence of business as well as of pleasure, we marched. Out on the Board- walk for the last time, we surveyed the scene of the previous night's revelry, the scene of tonight's even greater celebration and sighed, deploring the circumstances which made further tarrying impossible. Regretfully we turned and started on our northward journey with a feeling that for a short while, at least, we had enjoyed the playground of the East, Atlantic City. IRWIN JOHNSON Forty-seven kf1 Vl I sq ' FAMOUS SEA RESCUES HERE. is no need of war as a medium of producing heroes. During peacetime the sea makes heroes out of thousands. So unassuming are these men, that when they are congratulated, they merely shrug their shoulders and say, as Captain George Fried said, lt's only one of those little things that happen at sea. Captain Fried has had the pleasure of cheating Davy Jones more than once. On January 24, l926, after receiving distress signals from an English freighter, the Antoine, and using the radio compass as a guide, he steamed one hundred miles to the disabled ship. After standing by twelve hours, fighting a seventy-five-mile-per-hour gale and thirty-eight foot waves, during which time rescue work was impossible, Captain Fried pumped oil into the sea to quiet the waves and then launched a life-boat. The boat, with its crew of eight volunteers, was caught in a sudden squall and capsized, dumping the unfortunate men into a mixture of fuel oil and salt water. Six of them were rescued, but the other two were never seen again. Eight times an attempt was made to shoot a line to the Antoine, by means of a Lyle gun but, on account of the high wind, this also failed. Three other life-boats were lowered into the water, but before the crews could board them, they were smashed against the side of the ship with terrific violence. For the time, rescue work was abandoned. ln the evening, however, with the aid of powerful searchlights, a life-boat crew managed to reach the rapidly sinking Antoine and rescue the entire crew of twenty-five men, thus bringing to a conclusion one of the most determined fights between man and the elements. Captain Fried's second victory is even more noteworthy. Commanding the liner An'1'e'rl'Ca. Captain Fried received a radio message from an Italian freighter, the Florida, whose rudder chain had broken. The Anflerlca immediately abandoned its course and, steaming toward the freighter, sighted her on January 23, l929. After waiting for the storm to abate, a life-boat was launched and successfully made the trip. But what a sight met the rescuers' eyes! The entire crew was ill, besides, three men suffered from broken ribs and one from a fractured leg. Imagine the groans and cries from those seriously injured men when they were so unceremoniously dumped into the life-boats. There were, however, no fatalities and the whole crew of thirty-two men were brought safely aboard the America. Another example of courage and perseverance at sea was the rescue of the crew of a fishing schooner, the Northern Light, by the White Star liner, Baltic. The Northern Light was adrift, helpless, for five days, leaking badly. The men had no drinking water for two days or any heat for five days before rescue. Despite the adverse weather conditions, the Baltic launched a life- boat which successfully made the trip to the side of the schooner. The crew of the Northern Light were forced to jump from the deck of their ship into Forty-eight VIEWS OF FOREIGN COASTS Forty-nine Wlf e the life-boat. The captain of the Northern Light had brought his two sons, seventeen and twenty, aboard. The twenty-year-old boy contracted pneumonia before the rescue ship arrived and was drowned when the life-line was jerked from his hands. The rest of the crew was saved. All accidents do not happen far out at sea. Many occur Very near shore. ln l9l3, seven hundred vessels, carrying 26,000 people, were wrecked, but only eighty lives were lost, thanks chiefly to the Coast Guard, which is made up of 6,000 men manning 237 stations and seventy-five cutters along the l0,000 miles of the coast-line of the United States. Many valiant rescues are made by these men. For example, in l9l2, a tug, Margaret. struck a submerged wreck off the coast of New Jersey. Immediately, a motor life-boat was sent out from the nearest life-saving station, but so wild was the sea that eight oars had to be used to help the boat reach the wreck. The boat was repeatedly swept away from the Margaret and was finally capsized. Luckily, the men were rescued by a neighboring Coast Guard station. Another attempt to save the men aboard the tug was successful: they were taken off just as a huge breaker smashed the ship to bits. The life-savers, however, are not always so successful. When an Italian bark, the Nuova Olfavia, was grounded off the coast of North Carolina, the crew was frantic with fear lest the ship be smashed by the waves. When the life-saving boat drew alongside, the entire Italian crew attempted to jump into it. This action caused the boat to capsize and they and their would-be rescuers drowned. Such cases are, fortunately, exceptional. On the whole, America should be proud of her Merchant Marine and Coast Guard. It is to such men that we can look with pride and say, You are carrying out the real traditions of the sea. Carry on. THOMAS CONNELLY KK Fifty CALIFORNIA COAST VIEWS Fifty-one HUNTING THE MARINE MAMMAL H UNTED from pole to pole, pursued relentlessly and persistently by Northmen, Basques, Americans, and Asiatics, the whale has been driven in turn from the Mediterranean and the Red Seas in the dawn of civilization, from the Bay of Biscay and the Western Atlantic in the thirteenth century, from the Behring and the Greenland Seas in the nineteenth century, from the Indian and the Pacific Oceans in the twentieth century, until today the ice- fringed Antartic remains its final refuge. flVlartin O'Callaghen, Whaling: A Modern lndustry in Current History for November, 1931.5 The whale industry today is in a pathetic condition. The mammal which is the largest ever known is being slowly exterminated and soon there will be no such thing as whaling. The result of the unrestricted hunting of the mammoth fish is characteristic of the fate of any game the hunting of which is not governed by any law. The dinosaurs- of the sea are fair sport for all nations. There are no bars regarding the time or season when the Whale may be caught, the number killed, or the methods and implements to be used. The average Whaling expedition consists usually of one big, steel, tramp steamer and five small ships. The big ship is the oil-factory, and the little steamers are the Whale chasers. At the present day the floating stations can keep at sea for a year or more, working as a factory and acting as a parent to the smaller Whalers, which are about seventy tons each. The large ship usually has three or four decks. The main deck consists of powerful steam Winches and dredges, the purpose of which is to convey the parts of the whale from one place to another and to numerous boilers, in which the meat is cooked. There are many separators and cooling tanks in the 'tween- decks, and the hold is made up of vats in which the oil is stored. These mother-ships usually carry about two hundred deckhands who are experienced in the task of changing the monstrous mammal from a living animal to a substance which can be used to clean one's face and hands. The small steamers are slim, seaworthy craft, capable of attaining a speed of fourteen knots. The crew of each Whaler consists of a master or skipper, usually the gunner, a mate, a chief engineer, two firemen, three deckhands, and a steward. A Walkway connects the gunner's platform, which is in the bow of the boat, with the navigating bridge. Below, the crew has barely enough space for their comfort, and the hold is divided into space for the engines and the valuable manilla line. On a conquest to obtain the profits of the whale, the mother-ship and the Whale catchers all meet at some point in the Whaling district of the Antarctic. After a site for the anchorage of the oil factory has been chosen, the Whalers lose no time in departing for the chase of the doomed deep-sea inhabitant. The small ship sneaks slowly upon the haunts of the mammoth Fifty-:wo W fish, low in the aft to keep the propellor deep in an effort to muffle the churning sound, and high in the foreward, to keep the gunner's platform out of reach of the green water, going this way and that in an effort to find its quarry. At last a school of whales goes by. But these are not large enough to waste valuable time upon and they are allowed to pass. Hours go by and the chaser plows aimlessly about in the water: and still the vigilant watch is kept up. The gunner sits immovable, except for the gestures made by hand to the helmsman, directing the course of the ship. The lookout, stationed on the mainmast, scans the horizon intently, bent upon discerning any sign of whale life. At last a blow is seen. The crew goes quickly about their work. No orders have to be given as all know their respective duties. Every- thing is still aboard the Whaler while it nears the to-be-pursued animal. Unless the crew has exceptional luck, the dinosaur of the sea usually suspects the presence of the craft and sounds fprepares to dive, before the whaler can draw near enough to discharge a harpoon. But that does not matter. A whale was once a land animal and therefore it cannot breathe in the water, it must come to the surface every fifteen minutes, more or less, to inhale a new supply of oxygen. Skillful eyes judge where the whale will break, or come to the surface, and the little vessel is guided to that spot, its wake hardly perceptible. Often the gunner miscalculates the place and the whale rises at some distant point. But no one is disappointed. The chase is begun when the mammal dives into the depths below. The waiting for a sight of the whale seems hours although it takes only a short time. Will the whale never rise? is foremost in the minds of every member of the crew. Finally it does. His head shows firstg he blows. Slowly his body appears to push right out of the water. The crew is tense. The gunner waits-waits-waits. As the whale finishes blowing, he prepares to dive. Still the gunner waits. His finger on the trigger, he bides his time. The most effective spot to plant the harpoon is behind the ribs of the whale. At last the fatal spot appears and the trigger quivers ever so little. But the damage is clone. The harpoon is sent fiying through the air to lodge deep in the body of the victim. But while the harpoon is traveling through the air, let us be more definitely informed as to the construction of the gun and its missile. The gun is a short cannon, fifty-one and a half inches long with a three-inch bore. It turns easily on a swivel up and down or from side to side. At the butt-end there is an iron lever, the trigger, which when pressed upward explodes the gun. The charge is about 300 drams of very coarse gunpowder rammed into the muzzle, followed by wads of hard rubber or cork and wool, after which the harpoon is placed in and hammered tightly. The harpoon is about five feet long and has a shaft at the end which are four barbs that spread widely upon entering the whale's body and prevent the iron from drawing out. The harpoon is tipped with a hollow point, called the bomb, which is filled with fire and ignited by a time fuse. Three or four seconds after the gun is fired the bomb bursts, frequently killing the whale instantly. Fifty-three asf A few instants after the explosion of the gun. a dull thud is heard arising from the depths below. This is the bomb bursting. But the animal is not dead yet. It pulls the Whaler from one part of the sea to another with its crazed power. When possible, another harpoon is shot into the Whale to lessen the possibility of the Wounded animal's escape. But the slashing of the hunted can not go on forever. The strain on the rope finally slackens and the whale dies. The line is then wound in by a powerful Winch and the mangled carcass soon appears on the surface. Next, it is inflated so that it Will float, a Hag is placed on it to show other Whalers it has been killed, and it is cast off, to be picked up later and towed in to the mother ship with the rest of the day's catch. When it is brought alongside the oil-factory, the body is drawn aboard the flensing, or carving, board by means- of the Winches. Then a number of men, supplied with six foot blubber knives, attack it. Blubber and meat are cut into lengths and boiled in steam pressure boilers. Other parts of the Whale are then dissected and made into some article of commercial value. Every part of the dinosaur is utilized. The above procedure is repeated every day in the year until the supplies run out or the factory is filled. Then the expedition departs, to sell its oil and other products to the world, to return at a later date for more spoils.

He had been a brave and honorable merchant shipmaster in the days when pirates were a menace to No every sea voyage. He lived in New York as early as 1689 and had a comfortable, even prosperous, home on Liberty Street. He was married to a widow of good family, and Dutch and English merchants of the town thought highly of him. He was a shrewd trader and a fighting Seaman, but at the same time official documents in New York showed his excellent reputation and character. ln I69I Captain Kidd was asked by the Colony of Massachusetts to punish the pirates who were interfering with the shipping of Boston and Salem. Men such as he laid the foundations for the great commerce of the New World and they stand out as the finest race of seamen. At this time the Earl of Bellamont was appointed royal governor of the colonies of New York and Massachusetts, and he was particularly anxious to suppress the swarm of pirates who crowded the American coast and became rich on the English commerce of the lndian Ocean. King William Ill would not give him a man-of-war because England had always been jealous of the colonies' sea trade. The Earl then decided to arm a ship privately without any expense to the government, and a number of his friends, illustrious Englishmen, gave 6,000 pounds sterling to the cause. They were to share in the booty captured from pirates as dividends on their investments. These men are to be praised for their genuine public spirit, even though they were to be receivers of stolen goods. When Captain Kidd was asked to serve as master of this ship, he was not very anxious to accept. He had a home and family in New York, his circumstances were prosperous, and he did not like the idea of roving after pirates who were almost certain to put up a good fight to save themselves. He finally consented when he was promised a share in the profits. He had a great deal of difficulty in assembling a crew for his ship, The Aduerzfure Galley, and most of the I55 men were the riff-raff of the water-front, some of them former pirates, whose pay ,was to be in shares of the booty taken. It was a desperate venture. After nine months' sailing without encountering one pirate ship, The AdUer1fure Galley reached Madagascar, the most notorious haunt of pirates in the world. Kidd hoped to win both favor and fortune by getting rid of these menaces to every honest skipper. By this time the crew was mutinousg the Captain was short of provisions and had no money. The pirates of Madagascar, having heard that Captain Kidd was near, were able to escape him. Finally, in order to quiet his grumbling crew, he unlawfully captured Fifty-Hue kt'-Q13 asf a small vessel, took some supplies and a few gold pieces, and let the victim proceed on its way. A few other small ships were made to deliver provisions to The Adventure Galley, but their crews were never harmed. Because of these acts he was accused of being a pirate and authorities began looking for him. Story-tellers are constantly referring to Captain Kidd's buried treasure, but all of his wealth was found and taken by England more than 200 years ago. When he reached the Isle of Wight he sent a chest, a box of gold, and a great deal of cloth to a man living on the island and asked that it be kept for him. The man consented, not knowing that Captain Kidd had taken the goods unlawfullyg but he returned it to the authorities after a short time. Captain Kidd was relying on the Earl of Bellamont and his influential friends to get him out of his predicament, but the Earl turned against him and refused to help him, calling him a pirate and a liar. One by one, Kidd's plans for clearing himself were ruined. Finally he was brought to court and tried, not for piracy, but for the murder of William Moore, his gunner, who had been insolent and mutinous. Captain Kidd had thrown a bucket at him, and a short time later he died. A violent death was by no means an uncom- mon occurrence because many shipmasters beat members of their crew so brutally that they never recovered. Kidd, however, was tried unfairly and was not allowed to defend himself or have Witness for his side. He was convicted of the murder and sentenced to be hanged. l-lis body, covered with tar, was hung on the shore of the Thames River as a warning to passing Steamers. Whatever may have been his faults, Captain Kidd was unjustly dealt with by the people for whom he worked, misused by his rascally crew, and slandered by people centuries later who hold him responsible for terrible crimes which he did not commit.

She was fanning charcoal into red heat with the corner of her apron. The silence of the small room was unbroken save for the peaceful and rhythmic chirp of the insects beside the door, and the low, brooding murmur of the sea outside, across the stretch of white sand that carpeted a smoothly rolling beach. Presently the girl slid open the paper-covered door and daylight Hooded the room, bringing into relief its bareness and simplicity. A hunched figure in the corner stirred into life. Open Sea, the gentle voice of old Mutsu trembled across the tiny room, 'il feel as though something were going to happen today, and I fear for you. Why, my father? questioned Open Sea, wonderingly. The cool air from outside fanned her face, flushed from the heat of the charcoal brazier. 'il know not why, the soft voice continued, but, since your mother was killed by the mob many years ago because of the Jesus-believing faith, I have known that our presence in the village was barely tolerated. Now that you have come home from the missionary school--H I-le moved restless hands, picking bits of straw from the floor where he sat. He turned to her in further explanation. Throwing aside the customs of our ancestors in really no light matter, my little daughter, he said, Hand to our neighbors who know not the unseen Friend above, it is no less than a community crime. He brushed a trembling hand across his clouded eyes. These past few days, a curious uneasiness has been upon meg and now the blindness has grown worse so that I can hardly see at all to make the straw sandals. The old man sighed as he picked up the straw and resumed his weaving, fingers moving deftly in and out as the footwear took shape in his expert hands. The almond eyes of the girl filled with unshed tears as she picked up a handful of chestnuts, and, with slender, gold-tinted fingers, dropped them one by one into the boiling water. She was wondering what they would eat, she and her half-blind father, when the chestnuts were all gone. The father had not been able to tend the little garden, and thieving village boys had stolen the meagre crop of fruit. Even the tray of silk worms she had counted upon for a small batch of cocoons had all died. Perhaps if she had not gone away to school, things would have been better. But the traveling teacher's persuasion had been too great for lVlutsu's ambition for his only child. He had urged her to go, and she had gone. Of course, the school had been wonderful! To learn to read the mysteries in the books of her country and to know of other countries beyond the sea had been grander than her wildest dreams! Yet now, a sharp pang of regret gripped her heart One Hundred Twenty-nine frsvf as she thought of her father. She looked at him pityingly. Age had crept upon him like winter weather. Yet trouble had not soured his soul. Yes, that was it, loving Jesus kept people sweet. As she padded about the room in the drab, gray kimona brightened by an obi, a blue sash, blue as the sea for which she had been named, she pon- dered, troubled, upon the complexities of life. UlVly father, she at length questioned him, Hwhy should we be persecuted for serving Jesus? These villagers might love l-lim too if they only knew l-lim, argued the girl, seeming to ignore the old oneis presentiment, yet was herself overshadowed by a vague depression. That is true, the old man agreed, but they find it hard to see how one God can be more powerful than the forty thousand gods of gold and silver and brass they now serve. ln time, perhaps, he mused, Utheir hearts may understand the truth. ln their hearts, l sometimes believe they are hungry for the One that satisfies. The wrinkled perplexity in lVlutsu's kind, old face grew calm and peaceful as he mused on their unseen Friend. The girl's heart, by nature gay and radiant with the beautiful glamor of youth, was saddened now as a rhythmic stream of throbbing memories flitted through her consciousness. The tide of the years surged back and forth carrying the little treasured thoughts of the past like lacy and delicate bits of seaweed, green, and purple and gold, on the swells of the tide. The sea, her playmate, the beautiful, abiding joy of her childhood! She remembered, as if it were yesterday, the races with the tide, the sand castles built in the eternal hope of childhood fancies, now all washed away, the old-time thrill as she crept out at dawn and down to the beach to watch big-eyed as the half-naked fishermen drew in their nets Hopping with a shining, wiggling mass of silver fishg the long drowsy afternoons when she sat, quiet as a turtle, and watched the quaint, little, fishing sampans riding in on a foaming tide, or the mornings when the white sails of the boats far out at sea seemed like a flock of sunny butterflies at rest on the water. Oh, to some the sea might be a symbol of a drear immensityg to some it might mean only matchless strength, tremendous power that forever wore away rocky shores to rebuild other continents: but to her, the sea was life, home, mother, playmate, friend-almost, God. Thinking of the sea drowned out all her melancholy doubts and misgivings, and her face lighted up like a sudden burst of sunshine on a cloudy day. Her fatl'1er's voice brought her back. Look out, child, and tell me, do you see anyone coming? Open Sea went to the door. The sun, dazzlingly brilliant and unclouded, shone down on waves that glittered like millions of dancing diamonds. Someone had cast out a paper prayer: crinkly Waves came lapping and licking the paper and bore it away from the shore with little swirls and eddies. On the other side of the village Fujiyama, pure white cone of dazzling snow, stood out like an inverted fan against the sky lineg that sublime, sacred One Hundred Thirlif ktilfb ZS1lNTfIe mountain that inspires men to holy worship! Dazzled by the light upon the water, on the one side, and the intense whiteness of the snow-clad summit upon the other, she shaded her eyes to see the path from the village. A nearby wistaria had dropped its heavy head and given way to grief, it seemed a voice of low crying and a sound of soft weeping. Silence hung heavy and dark like a passing cloud in spite of the brightness of the day. She strained her eyes up the path. There seemed to be no one. Open Sea was on the point of turning and saying, No, father, l do not see anyone, when suddenly she caught the harsh clanking jangle of the candy vendor's scissors. Turning sharply, she saw a slender youth swing from the path behind a clump of maples, glance furtively in all directions, and round the corner of lVlutsu's thatched cottage. She stepped quickly back before he had time to reach the door. Custom forbade that she, a maiden, appear to harbor glad- ness at his visit. He entered the room through the open door, face imper- turbable as fate. Glancing at him from the shadow, a sudden sense of fear ran through Open Sea's nerves like a chill of icy wind. Old lVlutsu's face beamed at the sound of his footsteps. The visit of a friend had no need to alarm him. Rather, he seemed to have been expecting this visitor, and, face calm and serene, he arose and bowed ceremoniously to the guest. Are you in peace, Fuwa, my child? queried Mutsu gravely. For to the old man, the younger ones were all his children. Yes, honorable Sir, peace be also upon your worthy house! Fuwa acknowledged the greeting and bowed low in humble genuflection. And are you in peace, Miss Open Sea? he asked in gentle voice without looking at the girl. 'iYes, thank you, Open Sea murmured. She was still frightened by she knew not what, yet, somehow, was reassured by the commonplace greeting between the two men, her father and her childhood friend. I had heard of your return from the missionary school, Fuwa remarked hesitatingly, and l wondered how you and your honorable father were, l see you are alone, he continued, glancing around the bare, little room. We are very well, lVlutsu answered for Open Sea. Have you any news from the village? Oh, nothing to speak off' Fuwa replied hastily, seeming to fear lest they had read his thoughts. The day without is beautiful, is it not? Our friend the sea missed you, l think, little Miss Open Sea, he observed, glancing again in her general direction. She will always be the same mighty, uncon- querable ocean, yet l seem to have heard a deeper note in that wild, eternal bass. Somehow, the music had a melancholy sound while you were away. But now that you have returned, the very air seems glad. The birds sing more sweetly, and the sea, l know, is happy. l-lis voice was tender as he spoke to Open Sea. ' One Hundred Thirly-om kbs-3613 JNINB-41571 See how the waves dance! And is not life pleasanter for you, honorable Sir, since her return? he addressed Mutsu. 'ilt is, indeed, my son, Mutsu agreed, 'ibut what have you heard in the village? U 'Tis trifling, Sirf, the young man said uneasily. ul-lave you heard how Kagoshima has been rumbling these past few days? l-le pointed to a hazy mountain peak in the distance. Perhaps the villagers have angered the gods, Sir, in their silly and trifling talk, and Kagoshima rumbles her threatening displeasure. l read somewhere in the book you gave me that the heart of man is desperately wicked, and l fear the gods are angered and have punish- ment in store. But what of the village talk, my lad? insisted lVlutsu impatiently, sensing the boy's hesitation to give his news. Well, Sir, it is not likely that there is any truth in it, at all, Fuwa tried to reassure him anxiously shifting from one foot to the other. As you know, l am quite often in and out of the tea-house- Yes, yes-go on, Mutsu agreed. Well, it's just that-U Fuwa said self-consciously, then frowned, uwell, l heard the chief of police say, the villain! that he was going to hire a bunch of ruflians to chase you out of the village, and k-kill you, his voice lowered its pitch and trembled into a whisper, just as they did away with Open Sea's mother. I-lis face was blanched and frightened. mlqhere! l've told you, he blurted, and, oh, l'm sorry! If I can help you, let me know, he finished, torn between shame and embarrassment. With the last Words he hurried out of the room and was gone. For a moment the room seemed to have caught a solemn quiet. The chestnuts bursting sputtered, demanded attention, but were unheeded. Then the girl gave a little cry. She sank to the floor at her father's feet and buried her shining head in the folds of her skirt. Oh, my honorable father, what shall we do? she cried out. What shall we do? What shall we do? We must flee, my child, at once, the old man said firmly. There is nothing else to do. They may not find us in the forests in the mountains. l am old, it would not matter, he had a far-away look upon his face, and a soft smile, 'ibut not for you, no, his voice grew forceful, uit must not be for you. But, father, your strength, you cannot climb the mountain! Open Sea argued tearfully. Besides there are wild terrors in the mountain, l have heard tales of what they do at night timeg l am afraid. True, I am not strong and the forests are infested with untamed animals. But better to be devoured by beasts of the forest, than to be slain by the fangs of human dogs, the old man proudly replied. Come, bring me my cane. One Hundred Thirty-Iwo - K WCKNH Oh, l cannot let you go because of me, Open Sea wailed, at the same time ashamed of her lack of courage. 'il cannot leave the sea, my friend, my mother! She turned to the door and held out pleading arms to the sea as its restless bosom heaved and tossed beyond their cottage. UO Sea, she cried, uif you love us, shelter us now, my father and me, and hide us somewhere in thy waves. Would you could avenge our wrongs! Do not let these wicked people go unpunished! Oh, my friend, thou who hast been my life, my joy, save us now from the wrath of the villagers! The sea seemed to hear the cry, for it murmured an understanding response. Come, daughter, my cane! the old man urged. We must not delay. The breezes rustled and whispered to the streams, and a wind from the sea buffeted the faces of two weary travelers toiling slowly up the mountain side hours later as the clay sang itself into evening. Father, sit clown and restg you are very tired, Open Sea tenderly advised, guiding the feeble old man to a large, flat rock. Yes, we must rest. A little rest is good, Mutsu agreed wearily, lowering himself slowly to the rock. Perhaps we can reach the monastery before dark. The secret and subduing charm of the towering cryptomeria trees fell upon them, and the whispered rumble of the ocean spoke to them of peace. Resting thus, they had no presentiment of the disaster. Resting close to the comforting earth, they drank in the wild fragrance of the forest trees, gazed upon the tossing sea below and the beauty of the sunset as it was rushing to its height through every phase of glory and splendor. Then suddenly, unheralded, like some tornado loosed out of the brood- ing mountain peaks, the thing came to pass. The mountain trembled and quaked. The ground beneath them seemed gripped by a giant hand and was shaken back and forth so that one could not have stood upright. Below them Open Sea could see strips of land suddenly crumpled together like a bit of crushed, dried leaf, or rolled up like a deeply plowed furrow and then pulled back in a great, gaping crevice. The stunning crash of the ocean answered them. Look, father! look at the village! Open Sea cried wildly. Flames sprang up far below them. A terrible earthquake! Mutsu half rose up in excitement, then was shaken back to earth as a fresh quake shook the mountain. Another flame shot up in the village, then another, and another. The fire-pots are scattered and broken! The houses all will be destroyed, he groaned, mindful even of his enemies in their time of tragedy. Even as he spoke the sea gave a loud, angry roar. The sucking backward of the waters was followed by a great surging forward as a tidal wave flowed over the land and swallowed the village. One Hundred Thzrlye three NQBJMNT ' The steady thunder of the surf was the only sound heardg the wild winds flew round and round sobbing in dismay. Open Sea sobbed too. Wonder and fright filled her at the awful consequence of her petition to the sea. Now that the village was gone, it was terribly dear to her. A choking sob arose in her throat as she remembered Fuwa who had been so faithful with the warning. Poor Fuwa! He had perished. Through her tears, far down the mountain she seemed to see a moving speck of black. It grew larger, took shape. It couldn't be-it was-Fuwal Then the burden grew lighter: the past slowly drifted out of the horizon. Thrilled with a sense of strange, new adventure, she stretched her arms again to the sea. Thank you, eternal Sea, she breathed. Like organ music came the deep reply. Open Sea understood. As for man, his days are as grass, old Mutsu quoted, Has a flower of the field, so he flourisheth. For the wind passeth over it and it is gone, and the place thereof shall know it no more. The grandeur of sea and sky mingled with the words in a symphony of sound and color as the flames and the sins of the village below were wiped away and the waters receded, leaving an unsullied beach.

P rinciples of Ocean Transportation THERESA MICHAELS AWAY The ship went out to sea today And carried my hopes of romance away I had planned for months my escape, and then. The ship slipped her hawser and left again. As I watched the wind billow out her sails I thought of the stories, the romantic tales I had heard of the sea, the ships, and the men That sail them, but she had left port and me again. The splash of the waves, the smell of the sea, Those are the things in life for me: To feel the spray, the roll of the ship. To see the wake in the distance slip. To stand 'neath her canvas, her masts on high -But they're dreams, all dreams, that are passing by. And I'ue settled down to the humdrum life Of the earth, to the toil and strife That is with that earth. For just today My ship slipped anchor and sailed away. -Arthur Kuhl Term 8 One Hundred Thirty-six K I I if-213 I AIWn5tJ TYPHOON TIME When the shriek of the typhoon rips the sky On the swinging Malay sea, And the rocking crash of the rollers cry In thundering, savage gleeg YVhen the moaning roar of the jungle night Is rent by the rushing gale, And the lashing rain of the tropics flies, With the force of driven hail: When the vessel wallows to certain wreck On the wave-swept sporting bar, And the combers hammer the reeling deck And strip the seams of tar: When the sea is green and the sky is b And they glow when day is done, Then it's typhoon time on the Malay sea In the land of the rising sun.

Lora Stanway, curled at her grandfather's feet, looked up at him sadly. He hadn't been listening again. He never listened when she read the Book to him each evening. Then she realized the import of his words. But, Pappyf' she cried, rising in excitement, if you would only listen to me! Poor Jerry! lt's all he has. And with all these rains ruining his oat crop. Please wait till fall when he harvests the cor-H E.nough! Old Jed Stanway's jaw was set, his gray eyes were hard and cold. Then his face softened, and he drew Lora down onto the arm of his chair. I'd do anything in the world for you, Lora, darlin', he said gently, stroking her hair. I allus have. 'Ceptin' this! That look of stolid determi- nation, of fierce hate had come into his face again. Lora gazed at him searchingly. He was immovable. He seemed like a terrible barrier of cold steel, unsurmountable. He looked almost cruel. She shivered slightly. lt's raining again, she said as she slowly bent to kiss his iron-gray head. Jn ac bs vs at Dull, dismal dawn greeted l..ora's eyes when she reluctantly roused herself the next morning. Another foggy, cloudy, dreary day, she thought as she dressed hurriedly. She heard her grandfather in the kitchen, grumbling about his rheumatism. She hastened to him. This damp weather's gettin' the best of my limbs, Lora, mumbled Jed as she helped him to a chair. Guess l won't be able to go to Jerry's. l..ora's heart gave a glad, little bound of relief. 'Tm sorry you aren't feeling well, Pappyf' she said, but l'm really glad that you can't go to Jerry's! You'll have to go for me. The dishes Lora was carrying almost fell from her hands. She looked at her grandfather imploringly. Oh, I couldn't, Pappy! l couldn't tell him! You've got to, Lora. I won't change my mind, and he's got to know. These rains might last a coupla more weeks, and l won't be able to go. The girl said nothing. Breakfast was a silent meal. Several times Lora gazed appealingly at old Jed, but his set face did not relax. Lora washed the dishes, made the beds, and prepared the carrots for lunch as slowly as she could without Jed's noticing that she was deliberately wasting time. The old man followed her around, continually asking how One Hundred Forty k'gf5e13W2 I Hiffj soon she would be ready to leave. Having postponed her departure as long as possible, she finally donned slicker and galoshes, and kissed her grandfather goodbye. All right, Pappy. I'll tell him. At the door she paused and looked back. lt's still raining, she said. When she had gone, Jed fell to nervous rocking in his old chair. The battered clock on the shelf ticked away the minutes, bringing ever closer the moment for which he had waited for years. lt wouldn't even the score with Jerry Lawson, but it would raise the balance a good bit. As the rain pattered incessantly on the roof overhead, Jed's mind reverted to a stormy night fifteen years back when his son, Joe-laughing, carefree Joe-had told him that he was going down to the power-house to take Jerry Lawson's place for the evening. Jerry had gone to a dance, and good-natured Joe had readily agreed to work in his stead. The storm had grown worseg the river, swollen by the spring rains, had cracked the dam, and power-house, dam, and Joe, his only son, had been swept away. Jed had never forgiven Jerry Lawson. For a few hours' pleasure he had shirked his duty, a dangerous duty, and sacrificed the life of a friend. Lora, then aged three, had been left an orphang and he, Jed, had reared her. When he lost Joe, Jed had turned sour. Dallville called him a hard man, a mean man: but on little Lora he had lavished all his affection, all his love. He worshipped her. It had been hard, sending her to the power-house this morning, but he never would forgive Jerry Lawson. For years, Jed had opposed and frustrated Jerry at every turn-had undersold jerry's crops, had refused Jerry water when his Well had gone dry, had permitted his stock to trample Jerry's crops-and now he was executing his master stroke. Lawson had mortgaged his house and farm, and the payment was due the next week. That Jerry could not meet it, Jed knew well. Easy- going Tom Watson, who had held the mortgage, had offered Lawson an extension. But Jed had awaited his opportunity: and when Watson needed money, he had bought the mortgage from him. And Jed meant to foreclose. Jerry could not raise any moneyg the heavy spring rains had ruined his crops. Foreclosure would mean the loss of his home, his farm, his son's college education! Was Lora telling him now? With the aid of his binoculars he would be able to see from the edge of the bluff whether she had reached the power- house. He seized his glasses and hobbled out of the cabin, not noticing that it had stopped raining. When he reached the edge of the cliff, he observed with surprise that the river below was very high, higher than it had been since that night fifteen years ago. Well, then Lora must have gone up the river to cross the bridge at Dallville and to walk back along the other side. It was two miles longer, but surely she would not risk crossing the dam with the river so swollen, and rising rapidly, too. With shaking fingers he adjusted the binoculars and gazed at the One Hundred Forty-one If W clam a half mile down-stream. There was Lora's red slicker! She was on ihis side of the river, opposite the power-house! She was starting across the dam! Jed's heart was beating so rapidly he felt as if he were suffocating. Lora, dOr1'l'. ' he shouted hoarsely, his voice completely drowned by the roar of the rushing water. He was trembling so violently that he could scarcely hold the glasses. He began to totter down the steep side of the hill, crying weakly, and pausing with each step to peer through the binoculars. She was half-way across now! If she would only hurry- Suddenly every drop of blood in his body froze! There was a large crack in one end of the dam! He screamed! Lora had begun to run! Jed prayed incoherently. The mad waters were pounding relentlessly at the widening breach, and before his horrified eyes the wall gave Way, and Lora was hurtled headlong into the whirling, watery chaos! He rushed blindly on, his senses reeling. He had sent her, he had sent her, his beloved Lora, she hadn't wanted to go! He had sent her, on an errand of vengeance, because of a fierce hate, he had sent her to her death! To a horrible death, a death like her father's! Everything was growing darkl He had sent her, to her death, to her death! Darkness- A4 56 as an vs When Jed opened his eyes, he was lying on the couch in his room, and a woman was bending over him. Lora, Lora, he called. There, Mr. Stanway, you'll be all right. Jed turned his head miserably. His scattered senses recognized Sarah Lawson, Jerry's wife. Uwe found you lyin' out at the bottom of the bluff, Mr. Stanway. You must've struck your head on a rock when you fell 'cause you was plumb out when we found you. You're a pretty old man to be tumblin' down hills. But Jed heard not a word. His eyes were glued on the doorway, where a vision of his darling Lora stood smiling at him. She was walking across the roomg she was on her knees beside himg her dear arms were around his neck, her soft cheek was pressed against his withered oneg her sweet lips were kissing his hair. UlVly Lora! he sobbed. lt's all right, Pappy, said her voice. Everything's all right. l'm here. He struggled to sit up. It was Lora! His own Lora! He wasn't dream- ing! He held her closer. How-? he gasped, the tears streaming down his cheeks. Don't talk, Pappy dear, she said, pushing him gently back upon his pillow. But she could not loosen those clinging arms. 'ijerry saved me. Luckily he wasn't in the power-house. He saw me from the bank and jumped in, risked his life just for me. It was a miracle that he made it. Thank God! breathed Jed. One Hundred Forty-Iwo -L- X-iam U fI j Presently he slept, holding Lora in his arms. lt was two hours later when he awoke to find her sitting beside him, holding his hand.

She went to' the shelf and lovingly took down the Bible. Opening to a marked place, she read in a low voice, For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. Jed's grey eyes were soft and beautiful as he looked at her. Lora, do you reckon Jerry Lawson believes that? Lora looked out of the window. The sun had come out now, flooding all the world with its glorious radiance. 'Tm sure he does, she said softly.

A mingled mixture of noises suddenly fell upon the ears of the ownerg screams of hysterical women and children, shouted orders of circus help, bellowings of fear and pain from the animals, and above all the outcry, Fire! The trained men put the fire out shortly but not without some damage. An attendant rounded a corner of the tent and rapidly came toward the owner. What's your report? This from the anxious owner. Not much damage done. Fire started in the straw near the monkey cage. Several monkeys burned but not seriously. Influenza escaped. Hlnfluenzaln Yes, he pretended that he was burnedg and when Doc brought him out to treat him, he jumped from Doc's hands and ran like the deucef, A mile from the circus a solitary figure was going toward a barn about a hundred feet behind a newly-painted farmhouse. It was lnfluenza. Two years ago Influenza had first opened his eyes to the world. He had grown rapidly, mentally as well as physically. He was cleverg in fact, in his two years of life he had acquired all of the tricks of the circus and had invented many more himself. He had a reputation, not one that l would care to possess, but he was evidently very proud of it. On Sundays he was the main attraction, for he put the other monkeys to shame with the quality and the number of his tricks. Influenza was aware of this, and he always made it a point to cut a few extra capers before his act was ended. That night, Influenza, lying in the hayloft, quietly reviewed the events of the day before he sank into blissful slumber. He awoke bright and early the next morning and foraged around in search of food. He found a great pile of dried apples. Trying one and finding that it didn't taste bad, he ate another and another until he had eaten a half dozen. This made his thirsty. Going to the rain-barrel he stooped over and took in great gulps of water. Within fifteen minutes he began to notice the effects of the water on the apples, and at the end of an hour he was in pain. influenza spent the remainder of the day tossing and groaning in the hayloft. By morning he was better. He searched for food in other directions than the apple pile, however. Looking around the yard he found nothing. He looked in some of the out-houses and found no food. Then he jumped to the window of the chicken-house and looked inside. He saw a great number of white balls lying in boxes along the walls. Quietly dropping to the Hoor he crept along to the nearest box. A rooster crowed. Influenza jumped. Hurriedly grabbing three or four eggs he leaped through the window and ran with all his might to the hayloft. One Hundred Forty-four K WU There he meditated on what to do with the stolen white spheres. They looked like nuts. l-le cracked one. A soft, sticky, clear and yellow fluid ran out. These, indeed, must be some new kinds of nuts. He licked the substance from the straw. It didn't have much of a taste, but it wasnit bad to eat. l-le carefully broke the tops off the rest and drank the contents. He robbed the chicken-house for several mornings thereafter, but he soon grew tired of eggs. One day he decided to go to the house for food. l-le waited until the farmer had gone to the fields, then he went to the house and peeked into the kitchen window. The housewife was making a cake. This interested him greatly and he watched every move she made. When she had put the cake into the oven and gone into another room, he crept in and Went to the stove. I-le reached for the oven door, and, since the stove was already hot, he was burned. With a yell of pain he leaped backwards, upsetting the table, with all of the cake ingredients, upon himself. The wife, coming in to see what was the matter, beheld a white, distorted thing leaping about the room. She screamed with fright and fled from the house towards the field where her husband was working. That night, the farmer awoke from a light sleep to hear sounds emerging from the kitchen. He took up his gun, crept softly downstairs, and across the hall to the kitchen. Looking inside, he beheld a sight to astonish any farmer. There was lnfluenzal He had an apron wrapped around him and was carefully mixing flour, milk, eggs, sugar, spices, and a good deal of other things acquired from the pantry. ln all of the excitement of the day he had found nothing to eat, and he had apparently come back to make himself a cake. The farmer shouted and made a grab for lnlluenza. The poor monkey was so startled that he fell from the chair on which he was standing. When he saw who it was, he began to roll around on the floor, endeavoring to get disentangled from the apron. Under the table he rolled, under the cupboard. Finally he was freeg he jumped through the doorway and ran with all his speed across the yard and into the barn. The farmer searched for some time but did not find him. just before he fell asleep that night, lnfluenza must have gone carefully over the advantages and disadvantages of liberty and circus life, for the next morning, the circus attendants were astonished to find a disconsolate lnfluenza seated in front of the cage. He had decided that the circus and food without trouble were safer than the free life.

But sweeping leaves is no pleasant job on a hot September after- noon. Perhaps it had been made doubly unpleasant by the irritating fly whose unforgivable cannibalistic habits consisted of persistently biting my leg. It might have been the fault of little Gerald who had ridden on his bicycle through the leaves each time l had swept them neatly into stacks, or l could have blamed Nebuchadnezzar, the puppy who was following the pernicious example of Gerald in a slightly more primitive fashion. At any rate, driven to desperation, l had abandoned my exasperatingly proper method of sweeping, and had attacked the unwelcome job wildly, with all the ferocity of a small cyclone. Then l had heard Reverend Schnitz say in his mildly protesting voice, Tsk, tsk, my child, that is all wrong. I had exploded. l did not relish a paternal my childng l was nineteen! Well, l may be doing this all wrong, l had raged, but l'm hanged if I'll be told so by a meddling old person! fsuch a remark was decidedly inap- propriate to make to a ministerlnj Now l stood aghast, rather awe-struck, staring at his mildly shocked ezipression. Everything he did was mild, l reflected disgustedly. Not a bit of back-bone! ul was not referring to your-ah-rather original method of sweeping, Carol. Today is Sunday. I boiled. Yes, Reverend Schmitz, I know. We're not too poor to afford a calendar! He went on protesting, But the Ten Commandments: 'Six days shalt thou labor and do all thy work, but-' ls it any affair of yours? l flashed. Have you any right to tell me when l should sweep leaves? That's the trouble with this horrid town- everyone meddling in things that don't concern him! I hate meddlersg l loathe mid-Victorian conventions, I detest Apple Creek, and l will sweep leaves on Sunday! If he had shown any anger-real red-blooded, American anger-l could have borne it, but l couldn't make the man angry and that infuriated me. You always were a little rebel, Carol, he said with mild, ineffectual disapproval. ul suppose you and the rest of the old people in Apple Creek are going to reform me, I sighed wearily. No, my dear child, he lamented, ul fear it would be a hopeless task. Good-day, Carol. Nebuchadnezzar and I looked at each other understandingly. The man's not human, I told him, and he winked at me. One Hundred Forty-eight ts-'sf-Q13 U H511 Later, in my room, l stormed. l searched for a word, appropriate for Sunday, to express my feelings. Finding none, and disregarding Sunday and the Ten Commandments, I began to call everyone in Apple Creek names. l began with the Society for Caring for Unfortunatesf' and ended with Reverend Schnitz. The list included, among others, Gerald, the imp next doorg Ezekiel Tewkesberry, the man who wakes us up each morning yelling, Nice, fresh blackberrieslng Gardenia, our mule that had kicked me last month, and my great-aunt Agatha. Then l saw the evening paper with a picture of Reverend Schnitz. l pounced upon it gleefully and tore it to shreds, with a fiendish enjoyment. Feeling much better, l burst into tears-strange l hadn't thought of crying before. Suddenly l wondered how Cuod must see me. A pathetically tiny figure in a surging multitude, raging and shaking her fists-at what? Space? It was absurd, ridiculous, hopeless. It was like shaking your fists at the wind when it blows your hat away, or at the sky when it rains and ruins a picnic, or like sticking out your tongue at teachers behind their backs. l said solemnly, I'll never make such a fool of myself again. Then l saw my reflection in the mirror and burst out laughing because l looked so much like Miss Bessie Leatz fpresident of the Society for Uplifting the Downcastl when she had said at her last lecture, And when, my friends, you have found peace, you shall never hunger again! No one quite under- stood what the society was for. Of course, Miss Leatz gave lectures fwhich everyone attended because everyone else didl, but no one quite understood what the lectures had to do with uplifting the downcastf' Miss Leatz rambled from one thing to another, but Apple Creek tolerated her because her father had been mayor thirty years ago. The last lecture, under the doubtful caption of Peace, was really the worst. l had hoped that in its extensive ramblings it might deal with candy recipes, but had been bitterly disappointed, for it included only the evils of liquor, Russia, the disgraceful conduct of youth, child labor, woman's place in politics, and the dance to be given for charity next Saturday. l repeated aloud, UYou shall never hunger again. But Rosemary and Bob Would, l reflected, and Went down to cook supper. l had never paid much attention to what Reverend Schnitz said. But while l was peeling potatoes, one phrase rang in my ears: You always were a little rebel, Carol. l admitted, grudgingly, it is true, that he was right. l had always rebelled against something, as far back as l could remember! Against going to bed at nine o'clock when Lizzie Jenkins stayed up till nine- thirty, against wearing high shoes in winter, against eating spinach, against wearing a hat, against being polite to people l didn't like, and-most violent rebellion of all-against Apple Creek. l still rebelled against Apple Creek. My one passion in an otherwise comparatively unemotional life was painting. By scraping and saving on the part of the whole family, l had Omf Hum1'rez1'Forty -rzim' X223 JNNT A571 obtained two precious years at an art school in Chicago. After that, l had resolved to get away from the dull life in Apple Creek. A little one-horse town that had gone to sleep back in I890 and that was still sleeping! What a place for an artist! What opportunities would l have in a stupid, unap- preciative lllinois town! l had thought of Chicago-vivid, gay, challenging- harbor of my youthful dreams I-and had resolved to go there to live. Martha johnson, owner of the Apple Creek lnn, had told me that her sister, Mabel, who lived in Chicago, wanted a companion and that l could live with her. A friend of one of my art teachers had promised me a job selling pictures in an art shop. My plans had been made, l had worked all last summer in lVlat Potter's hardware store for the railway-fare.

Bob, twelve, and Rosemary, seven, and l were orphans. Mother had died when Rosemary was three. Then there had been the Ladies' Aid Societies. I had put Bob and Rosemary behind me and had defied every well-meaning Uaidern who had attempted to take them away from me. Orphan homes had been out of the question. But surely there are relatives, one of the more courageous visitors had protested. l had smiled grimly. Great-aunt Agatha in Minnesota, who had nerves and asthma, and who owned seven cats. So l had firmly stood my ground. l could keep on working at the hardware store. l had resolved that Bob and Rosemary were going to finish school and graduate from high! But since Dad's death l had been more discontented than ever. Every day my hatred of Apple Creek was increasing. l finished preparing supper and called the children. Outside a cricket was chirping, Rebel, rebel, rebel! URebel,,' l repeated dully. What's the matter, Carol? questioned Rosemary. l glanced at her troubled, wide eyes. Nothing, dear, l laughed, kissing her swiftly. l didn't care. Rosemary loved me even though l was a rebel. It was a wonderfully satisfying dream. The Reverend Schnitz was attempting to sweep leaves and l was a bumble-bee that kept buzzing around his left ear. Then a soft voice said, Oh, how lovely! and l awoke sheepishly to stare rather blankly at the young woman standing on our garden walk. l had fallen asleep on the bench in the rose arbor and had awakened to find the stranger gazing raptly around our garden as if she had never before seen a Hower.

Your name is Carol Ryder-I asked the man at the post oHice-isn't it wonderful I met you so soon? Bats, I commented mentally. Then, aloud: I paint, if that's what you mean. Yes, yes, she went on eagerly, 'Tm Jessie Allan from Chicago. I came to Apple Creek last night and fell in love with the place. Isnit it precious? I'm staying at the hotel and Il Did you sleep there last night? I asked, horrified. Why, yes, she answered, I love it. Aren't those old-fashioned beds too quaint for words? M 'Quaint' describes them perfectly, I exclaimed. They cave in if you sneeze at them ! She laughed. Well, luckily I didn't sneeze. But please tell me more about Apple Creek. I think it's the dearest place! The very name is so romantic! I can just picture a gurgling, little stream lined with apple trees. Is there--H The creek went dry thirty years ago, I interrupted. And there aren't any apple trees, only poison ivy. I hate to disillusion you, but there's nothing romantic or artistic about this town. It's dead! Miss A!lan's eyes opened wide. Don't you like it here? Like it? It's horrid! What chance has a would-be artist in a dull dump like Apple Creek? It's so simple! But, Carol, my new friend said, it's the simpleness that makes it beautiful, those cozy cottages, that absurd little post office, those ancient hitching posts, these beautiful gardens! Why, Apple Creek is a little world in itself. She paused a moment and then asked, Have you ever tried to interest anyone in your paintings? I entered one in a state contest sponsored by an art club of Springfield. It was a picture of Anne Fields, a little girl who lives near here, taking a nap One Hundred Fifty-one WMWH with her head on Tam, our big collie. Nebuchadnezzar, one of Tam's pups, was nestled under Anne's arm, and Ophelia, a kitten, was playing with her shoe-string. It was a mess getting them all to pose for me! I laughed at the remembrance. lt sounds lovely,', she encouraged. You must let me know if you Win. I'll be back in the morning if you donit mind. l'm dying to see this garden by daylight. Please come, l urged. 'Tm not needed at the store till noonf' After my new acquaintance had departed, l remained in the garden for a while, reluctant to leave its comforting stillness. Nebuchadnezzar, my fellow rebel, came out and we smiled at each other. She's very queer, l began slowly. ul can't imagine anyone being enthusiastic over Apple Creek. Poor old town! l suppose l am fond of it, deep down in my heart. Then, vehemently: But it is simple! Nebuchadnezzar gazed thoughtfully and silently at the nodding dahlias. Monday was a busy day. ln the morning, at Miss Allan's request, we went Usight-seeing. I took it as a great joke-sight-seeing in Apple Creek! But Miss Allan's enthusiasm was infectious. The magic way in which she looked at everything made it all seem glamorous, exciting. l found myself viewing the remodeled auditorium, the small but well-kept park, the neat little bungalows, and our high school with a strange feeling of pride. We met Mabel Lynch, who told us that her church intended to give a I-lallowe'en party, and l listened eagerly to her vivid description of the gay plans for the frolic. l was happy as l worked at the store that afternoon. When Mrs. Potters complained to me as usual of her rheumatism, when Amanda Thompkins told me of the argument with her unreasonable mother-in-law, when Mrs. Thompkins told me of the tiff with her unbearable daughter-in-law, when Mrs. Graydon explained that Junior 'ijust refused to eat his carrots or kiss Aunt Harriet, instead of listening to these plaintive complaints with my habitual scorn and contempt, I received the troubles of the downcast sympa- thetically. That night when I went home, l felt that l had seen Apple Creek for the first time. Miss Allan came for supper. No mail for me, she lamented. Half- way through the meal, For heaven's sake, she said, if you don't open that envelope addressed so conspicuously to 'Miss Carol A. Ryder,' I'll open it for you! l hadn't even noticed the letter that Rosemary had helpfully stuck behind the toaster on top of the oven. It was important-looking, too. l opened it and read aloud: 'Alt is with great pleasure that the Palette Club of Springfield award you the first prize of twenty-five dollars for your painting, 'Play's Endf The attention of the judges was arrested by the charming simplicity of your One Hundred Fifty-two if-if13vViKlNIser5fj Work. Simplicity, you know, is the soul of art. We wish you every success in the futuref, Miss Allan raved. She kissed me joyously and babbled on with her characteristic rapidity and enthusiasm. But I wasn't listening. l couldn't take my eyes from the one sentence: Simplicity is the soul of art. It was a sermon, a promise, a prayer. Its words were burned indelilsly in my heart. After supper, Miss Allan was reading to Rosemary and Bob was laboring with his history. l slipped out into the garden, followed by the faithful Nebuchadnezzar. A cool breeze stirred the leaves gently. The stars were playing hide-and-seek with misty veils of clouds. From the church, the voices of the choir drifted out to me in a soft, sweet hymn. Everything seemed filled with peace, contentment, simplicity. I whispered softly, reproachfully, You see, Nebuchadnezzar, you and I were wrong-terribly wrong. Apple Creek is really the sweetest, clearest place in the world! And as the sagest member of all puppyhood snuggled at my feet, I thought l saw a twinkle in his eye.

Roosevelt teams always make a fine showing, and as the coaches are mainly responsible for the team's showing, so it is only fitting that we give credit to these men. The dean of Roosevelt coaches is Mr. Castleman, whose track teams are always of championship caliber. His record at McKinley and Roosevelt is widely known, for he has developed a number of World champions. To Mr. Carlson we owe thanks, for his splendid coaching of the football teams. His splendid work with the baseball team also deserves much credit. Mr. Lorenzen has good basketball teams and his tennis teams are always to be feared. l-le is also athletic equipment manager. Mr. Gerber is assistant football coach and is responsible for the team's physical condition. Mr. Riley deserves a vote of thanks for his able assistance to Mr. Castleman. Mr. Neeb is our new athletic director. ln his first term in this capacity, he paid the school athletic debt by successfully carrying on a season football- ticket campaign, surpassing that of former years. MONTY JOHNSON One Hundred Fifty-l'uur EQ. ' ' T Sr D- 'E Nl k1fiBW BASEBALL 1 932 Roosevelt won the 1932 baseball championship of the lnterscholastic League. This was its second consecutive championship in baseball as the team won the title in l93l. By winning, Roosevelt gained its fourth leg on the Harvard Cup, and, if it wins again next year, will secure permanent possession of the cup. ROOSEVELT 23-BEAUMONT 8 Roosevelt opened its i932 baseball campaign by smothering Beaumont 23 to 8. The game was featured by heavy hitting and loose fielding. The Rough Riders plastered three Beaumont pitchers all over the lot, gathering twenty-five hits which were good for thirty-eight bases. This wholesale attack included two doubles, four triples, and a home run. Kleier and lezzi led the attack with four hits each, while the former tallied six runs. Steiner and Schick pitched well. ROOSEVELT 9-CLEVELAND l Roosevelt went into undisputed possession of first place by trouncing Cleveland 9 to l. The Crimson team garnered twelve safeties off three Cleve- land hurlers and showed much improvement in fielding. Leroy Suchanek was easily the star of the game. This strong-armed right-hander pitched a beautiful game, allowing the Carondeleters only seven hits and fanning nine. Root and Shy led the batters with three hits apiece, each collecting a triple and two singles. ROOSEVELT 22-MCKINLEY 0 Behind the excellent pitching of Lester Schick, Roosevelt crushed Mc- Kinley 22 to 0. The Rough Riders collected twenty-one hits off two McKinley twirlers and tallied eleven times in the big first inning. Bill Kerchanske paced the batters with four hits in as many attempts including a mighty home-run over the left field fence. Schick pitched a masterpiece permitting only three hits while fanning eight. He was rewarded with fine support in the field- ROOSEVELT 7-CENTRAL 0 Roosevelt scored its fourth straight victory and second straight shutout of the season by whitewashing Central 7 to 0. Suchanek starred on the mound, permitting but six scattered hits and striking out ten. The first ten batters to face Suchanek went down in order, the last five via the strike-out route. His control was perfect, not many reaching first on a walk. Root, Kerchanske, and Kleier each cracked out two hits apiece. ROOSEVELT l5-SOLDAN 3 After trailing l to 0 for six innings, the Rough Riders drove l-lector Brown, Soldan star southpaw, from the parapet in the seventh frame when they coupled nine hits, two bases on balls, and two errors to manufacture eleven runs. ln the eight they added four more tallies and finished ahead of the West Enders I5 to 3. Kloepper paced the batsmen with four hits in four tries. Steiner pitched a fine game permitting only five scattered hits and whiffing six batters. One Hundred Fifty-six Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Roosevelt! One Hundred Fifty-seven -uf 'rim ZYNH W7 ROOSEVELT I7-BEAUIVIONT I4 Although the Rough Riders trailed I3 to 8 for eight innings, the fighting Roosevelt ,spirit was not to be denied and in the ninth frame the Crimson tide rushed nine runs across the plate to vanquish Beaumont I7 to I4. In this delirious ninth the Rough Riders had their rooters wild with enthusiasm as they hammered across the winning runs. Bill Kerchanske atoned for his faulty fielding by driving in the tying and winning runs after two were out. The South Siders displayed real championship caliber in this game as it was probably their hardest of the season. It took four pitchers, Steiner, Suchanek, Boeding and Schick, to stop the North Siders, but the latter two were particularly successful, Boeding being credited with the Victory, his first of the season. ROOSEVELT 9--CLEVELAND ll Although Roosevelt bowed to Cleveland 9 to II, the Crimsonites re- mained in first place, a full game ahead of Cleveland and Beaumont. The feature of this game was a triple play executed by the Rough Riders in the eight inning with the bases loaded. Murphy, CIeveland's shortstop, lined to Shy, who stepped on second and then shot the ball to Putnam to complete the triple winning- Putnam led the Carlsonmen at bat, collecting a double and two singles. Suchanek, Steiner, and Schick pitched, Steiner being charged with the defeat, his first in two seasons. ROOSEVELT 28-IVICKINLEY 5 Roosevelt resumed its winning ways by routing McKinley 28 to 5. The Cowboys exploded twenty-one safeties to all corners of the North Kingshigh- way ball-yard. Putnam led the attack with four hits in five tries. This boosted his average to .5 I 4 to give him second place in the league batting race. Paul Shy, stellar short-stop, twisted his ankle while sliding into second base in the second inning and his services to the team were lost temporarily. Schick and Boeding twirled for the Carlsonmen with the former receiving credit for the victory, his second of the season. The twenty-eight runs scored by the Rough Riders established a season's record for runs scored in a single game. ROOSEVELT 8-CENTRAL 6 ln a thrilling ten-inning game Roosevelt nosed out Central 8 to 6. The game, one of the best played all season, was a thriller from the start. Suchanek and Steiner pitching for the Crimsonites allowed but nine hits while the Cowboys could gather only eight safeties off Straith, the Central moundsman. Krause singled with one away in the tenth and after Rich popped out, Steiner walked, Kerchanske got a life when Schnurman, the Central short- stop booted his grounder, Krause scoring. Then I-lausman singled Steiner cantering in with the eight run for the Rough Riders. Steiner then stopped Central without any hits in their half of the inning and Roosevelt moved a notch closer to bagging its second consecutive pennant. One Hundred Fifty-eight Yea! Roosevelt! Yea! High! Yea! Yea! Roosevelt High! One Hundred Fifty-nine ,Www :MWF ROOSEVELT I2-SOLDAN 9 Roosevelt won its second consecutive baseball championship by walloping Soldan I2 to 9. The Crimson hammered Brown, Solclan's star pitcher, for fifteen safeties and while Steiner permitted the West Siclers fourteen hits, he was tight in the pinches, sending eight batters back to the bench via the strike-out route. lezzi was the batting star for the Cowboys, collecting four hits in four trips to the rubber. The fielding gem of the day was Haus- man's long running catch of Pirrone's terrific drive to deep right-center. The victory closed a very successful season for Coach Carlson and his boys. They won 9 and lost I in league competition and in non-league engage- ments captured four victories, gained a tie in one game, and lost two. Congratulations to Mr. Carlson and the 1932 team! May next year's nine be equally successful. WILLIAM BRINKMAN Player Position G AB R H D T HR SH SB BB RBI BA TB Sgl.Pct. PO A E Pct.

The Hartford Street boys kept up the good work, administering a 28-l9 drubbing to the Cadets at Alton, and then opening their lnterscholastic League competition by soundly whipping Central, 21-8. It was in this game that Lee Ping Patton discovered himself. Substituting for l-loke in the second half, he ran rings around his opponents, and proved himself worthy. Paying a visit to Page Avenue, the Roosevelt quint annexed another interleague verdict, this time from Principia, 26-l l, and was to stay undefeated and run its string of victories to four straight. But, all good things must end, and the Landry twins from Cleveland ended this streak, each playing a big part in his team's 30-I 6 victory over the Rough Riders. The next game was with C. B. C. and what a game that was! Late in the last half, with the lead changing hands almost every thirty seconds, and the time slipping steadily along, the spectators were in an uproar. Finally, with less than a minute to play, Bartman arched in a perfect toss from midcourt to give Roosevelt a one point lead, then, after about thirty seconds of desperate stall- ing and guarding, the game was ours. Back into league competition, the Lorenzen men fell before the sharp- shooters from Beaumont, 23-9. Our forwards just couldn't find the hoop, Krause and Hoffman scoring Roosevelts' only field goals. Drawing the bye for a week, the Crimsonites split even in two practice tilts, Principia getting revenge by a close 2l-l 8 decision, and the Western Military Academy boys once again succumbing, this time to the tune of 29-26. The soldiers boys presented a vastly improved battlefront as compared with the one earlier in the season, and the game was hotly contested throughout. ROOSEVELT FIGHTSV' This slogan was never lived up to better than when the Rough Riders played the Soldan basketeers to a standstill in the second half of a league encounter, after trailing at the halfway mark. Krause's long, underhand heaves kept us in the running right down to the very last. Then, with seventeen seconds to go, the score tied, 21 all, Paul Brandrick, Soldan's ace forward, slipped into the clear, received a spot pass., and flipped the sphere into the net, to end one of the best games of the year, with the score of 23-2l in favor of Soldan. The strain of so many games began to tell on the Roosevelt men, with the result that they dropped three league games in a row. Central eked out One Hundred Sixty-two 1 One Hundred Sixfyflhrcc BASKETBALL SQUAD 1 I H a I4-I2 triumph, Cleveland repeated with a 23-16 victory, and Beaumont finally won a hard battle, I6-I l. ln their last league game, the Hartford Street quint ran rough-shod over the Soldanites, 24-10, getting ample revenge for the previous defeat suffered at the hands of the Gold and Brown. Entering the District Tournament pretty well worn out from a hard fifteen game schedule, the old do or die spirit prevailed, and our cagers eliminated University City in a thrilling, overtime conflict which was settled only when Eagle Eye pulled a Frank Merriwell and dumped in a setup from under the basket just as the final gun popped, giving Roosevelt a 2'-I9 conquest. ln the second round, another tough tilt was encountered, but this time the Southsiders were nosed out, I8-I 7, by St. Louis U. High, thus winding up a season which was not particularly successful, but which showed the ability of the Rough Riders to play the game like true sportsmen. Prospects for next year are very encouraging with seven or eight of this year's squad back to carry on. lnterleague games gave Coach Lorenzen's charges most of this year's victories, seven of them as against two defeats being registered, while league competition proved more hazardous, our winning percentage therein being only two victories out of eight games played.

TRACK MAPLEWOOD RELAYS Due to injuries, Roosevelt was unable to enter a full team in the Third Annual Maplewood Relays. Dick Waters, crack Crimson jumper, succeeded, however, in capturing first place in the broad jump with a leap of 20 feet, 6M inches. The Junior Medley Relay team consisting of Hellmich, Lee, Johnson, and Schumann took second place in their event. WESTERN MEET The Crimson trackmen were defeated by Western Military Academy April 23, by a score of 67M to 54M. Western gained all three places in the javelin and discus, which are not included in the list of events in the activities of St. Louis track teams, thereby scoring I8 points and enabling them to win the meet. The Crimson sprinters made an almost clean sweep in the l00 yard dash. Whittall captured first place, Sturm took second, and Roberts tied Opizzi, of Western, for third. Whittall also took first place in the 220. Buch, Senior Captain, was high point man with I6M, points, by virtue of his victories in the I20 yard high hurdles, the 220 yard low hurdles, the broad jump, and his running on the winning relay team. Fries took third in both the 440 and 880. Steiglitz took third in the mile run, and O Connor took second in the shotput. East took third in the high sticks and Krause took first in the high jump and third in the low hurdles. Londe took second in the pole vault, and Resetaritz tied for second in the high jump. Waters took second in the broad jump, and Sturm tied for third in the same event. .john- son took third in the 220. The relay quartet of Roberts, Johnson, Whittall, and Buch won the 880 relay. DISTRICT MEET The Roosevelt tracksters succeeded in taking third place in the District Meet held April 30, at the Maplewood Stadium. University City swept through all opposition to take first place with a total of IOS points. Webster Groves was second with 36, Roosevelt third with 30, and Soldan fourth with ZSM. ln the Senior division Buch starred by capturing first place in the 220 yard low hurdles. Bill probably would have won the I20 yard high hurdles also, had he not tripped over one. He wound up his performance by taking third in the broad jump and running anchor on the relay team. Whittall, Crimson sprinter, did well by taking fourth place in the l00 yard dash amid much competition. Waters annexed second place in the broad jump, which One HUHITFULI Sl'.'.'f'l- fiuv Asif POINT WINNERS was won by Martin of University City with a record leap of 22 feet My inches. The relay quartet of Roberts, Dey, Whittall, and Buch finished second to the crack University City quartet in the 880 yard relay. ln the junior division, Captain Lee captured first place with a splendid jump of 20 feet l My inches. Coughlin finished a close second in the 440 yard dash. Antrim tied the record for the 50 in the prelims and took third in the final, and Johnson took third in the 220. Wellhausen did well by scoring in a tie for second in the pole vault and a tie for third in the high jump. The Junior relay team took fourth in their event. BUCH STARS IN STATE MEET Bill Buch, captain and ace hurdler of the Crimson track team, became state champion in both the I20 yard high hurdles and 220 yard low hurdles by virtue of his victories in these events in the State interscholastic Meet held at Columbia, May 7. Bill turned in exceptionally fast times in both races, covering the high sticks in l6.2 and the lows in 25.6. Due to financial difficulties, Roosevelt was unable to send a full team to the meet. IN TERSCHOLASTIC MEET Cassie's boys furnished a thrilling climax to the years of hard work done by previous Roosevelt teams by triumphing in the lnterscholastic Track One Hundred Sixly- V K W.KlYs4s5.ff and Field Meet for the fifth consecutive year. This is the first time in the history of athletics of any sort in St. Louis that any school has won the championship for five successive years. As a result of the victory, the Crimson tracksters brought the much-prized Cornell Cup to a permanent resting place at Roosevelt, with its surface unmarked by the name of any other school. The Crimson machine rolled up a total of I49 points, only two fewer than their record breaking point total of last year- Beaumont was second with 59 points. The Rough Riders swept through to victory in each division: Senior, Junior, and Midget. Harold Whittall, crack Crimson sprinter, was the individual star of the day, scoring I l My points by capturing firsts in the l00 and 220 and running on the winning relay team. Buch starred by winning the 220 low hurdles, taking third in the 120 high hurdles, third in the broad jump, and running as anchor man on the relay. Krause performed splendidly by taking first place honors in the high jump. Londe surprised all by Winning the pole vault, and Coughlin took third place in the 440. Roosevelt scored heavily in the shotput, Kloepper capturing second place, Arbini third, and O'Connor fourth. Waters, unable to compete advantageously in the finals because of an infected foot, tied for first in the broad jump with Clucas, of Beaumont, by virtue of his leap of 21 feet 4 inches in the preliminaries, Asher tied for third in the pole Vault. The sweeping victory was capped by a thrilling climax when the crack Senior quartet of Roberts, Dey, Whittall, and Buch raced to victory in the 880 yard relay in the record breaking time of l :33.2, shaving .4 of a second from the record set by Soldan in I920. It is an odd coincidence that three members of this quartet, Roberts, Whittall, and Buch, were members of last year's record breaking Junior relay team. Johnson was the high point man of the Crimson junior tracksters. His victory in the l00, his tie for first in the 220, and his running on the relay team gave him 9M markers. joe Lee, Junior Captain, captured first place in the broad jump, took third in the l00, and ran on the relay. Hellmich starred by winning the 440 and taking second in the I20 low hurdles. Wellhausen did nobly by taking first place in the pole vault, and third in the high jump. Lederer took first in the shotput and tied for fourth in the pole vault. Schwartz performed creditably by taking third in the 220 and fourth in the 50. Schumann starred by winning the 880 yard dash. Wallace took third in the l20 yard low hurdles. Graul took second in the shotput, and Hancock captured second in the 440. The relay quartet of Hellmich, Lee, Antrim, and Johnson took second in their event. The Midgets, for the second successive year, scored more points in their division than the Midgets of all the other schools combined. Abbott, Midget Captain, hampered by a strained back, took third in the 75 yard dash, third in the broad jump and fourth in the shotput. Hallett was high point man in the Midget division, taking firsts in the 50 and 75 yard dashes, and running One Hundred Sixlyaseuen fe? BWI ' sf-Isif-JJ on the Winning relay team. Watsek took third in the 50 and second in the 75. Donzelot captured first place in the broad jump. Muehlbauer did well by winning the shotput. Stanton took second in the shotput and Bickel took second in the broad jump. Cartwright and Elkins tied for second in the high jump. The Midget relay quartet of Hallett, Donzelot, Tuggle, and Watsek took first place in the 440 yard relay. The meet closed a successful season for Cassie and his boys. The 1932 cindermen made a welcome addition of five trophies to the large track collection. May the future Crimson squads be as successful and continue the high standard set by previous Roosevelt teams! PAUL ROBERTS FOOTBALL NOTES Roosevelt finished in third place in the i932 football race. The Rough Riders gained three victories and suffered two defeats for a percentage of .600. The Crimson defeated Beaumont, Central, and McKinley and bowed to Cleveland and Soldan. ln two practice games Roosevelt defeated East St. Louis High, I3-0, and Mattoon, Illinois, High, 25-6. The game with East St. Louis was a costly one as We lost the services of our big quarterback, Jack Connors, for the entire season. This injury handicapped the Crimson greatly and was a principal reason why Roosevelt lost their two games. ROOSEVELT 6-BEAUMONT 0 Roosevelt opened the i932 season by defeating Beaumont in an inter- esting game, 6-0. The Cowboys were not able to penetrate a powerful Beaumont defense until late in the final quarter when a pass, Jovaag to D. Watts, placed the ball on Beaumont's 20-yard line. On the next play Londe skirted right end for a touchdown and the only score of the game. Rafalowskfs place kick for the extra point was wide. During the first three periods the Rough Riders were held in check by the Beaumont line. Twice during the first period the Crimson had the oval within Beaumont's 5-yard line, but on both occasions the North Siders held for downs. Kloepper and Londe made several long runs during the game but the Rough Riders were always halted within shadow of the Beaumont goal except when Londe ran for a touchdown. ROOSEVELT 0-CLEVELAND 7 The Crimson suffered its first defeat in three seasons by dropping a thriller to Cleveland, 7-0. Kracke, Cleveland's All-Star halfback, decided the contest in the first quarter when he raced around left end for four yards and a touchdown. Kracke also added the extra point with a drop-kick. One Hundred Sixty-eight M TEA TRACK 9 R' E 1: 5 Q. 2 T-. ff R. 5 'Q . E 3. fb Mis-213 JZYNTH e7 The Cowboys fought back with all they had and in the third period carried the ball to the one-yard line where they failed to score, due to a poor snap-back by a substitute center. The Rough Riders were handicapped by an injury to their regular center, Ray Mueller, who was removed from the game early in the first quarter. ROOSEVELT 55-MCKINLEY 0 Roosevelt came into its own with a crushing 55-0 victory over McKinley. The Crimson led by Monty Johnson, who scored twenty points, ran McKinley into the ground with a terrific onslaught of power. ln the first period Londe pounded across for two touchdowns and jovaag tallied one. Extra points were recorded by Johnson and Weingart. Johnson scored two touchdowns in the second quarter and also an extra point. Another point after touchdown was added on a pass, Rafalowski to Eigleberger. In the last half the Cowboys ran the score to 55 with Johnson, Roberts, and Woods carrying the ball over the double line. On each occasion the extra point was made. ROOSEVELT 70-CENTRAL 0 The Roosevelt powerhouse overthrew Central by completely breaking down their defense and establishing a league-scoring record of 70-0. Paul Roberts, speedy Crimson back, was easily the star of the day, racing through the Mid-Cityans for four touchdowns. Kloepper scored two and Johnson, lezzi, Harley, and Hancock, one apiece. Four extra points were added, Johnson made two, and Roberts and Weingart one each. The Crimson Tide scored nineteen points in the first quarter, nineteen in the second, six in the third, and twenty-six in the fourth, The game was a parade of touchdowns with Roberts heading the pro- cession. ROOSEVELT 6-SOLDAN I 3 ln a game that was played on a snow-covered Held, Roosevelt lost to Soldan I3-6. Following a 70-yard punt by Marlowe Swede Jovaag, Roosevelt recovered a Soldan fumble on the West Enders' 20-yard line. On the second play Raines, Soldan half-back, intercepted a pass and ran eighty-five yards to a touchdown. Soldan failed to convert the extra point. Toward the close of the fourth quarter, Roosevelt received the ball on its own 20-yard stripe and marched eighty yards to a touchdown. The six- pointer was tallied by Roberts. But a determined Solclan team was not to be denied, and shortly after- wards Minkey passed to Raines, who ran twenty-five yards to a touchdown. Ahearn plunged the extra point and the game ended Soldan I3, Roosevelt 6.

On the line Captain Joe Arbini, Ray Mueller, Stanley Rafalowski, and Al lezzi did great work. Londe, Kloepper, Roberts, and Johnson stood out in the backfield. As a reward for their fine playing, Captain Arbini and Al Londe were selected on the league All-Star team. Arbini was placed at left tackle and Londe at quarter-back. R. Mueller, Kloepper, and lezzi were placed upon the second team while Roberts and Rafalowski received honorable mention. Roberts was the league's leading scorer with 31 points. The following were awarded letters: Captain Arbini, Rafalowski, R. Mueller, E. Mueller, Forsman, Puttman, Eigleberger, Weingart, D. Watts, B. Watts, Wildfong, Londe, lezzi, Kloepper, Woods, Roberts, Johnson, Jovaag, Guarino, and Conners. Student managers Dovin and Shustle also received the coveted Roosevelt As a result of all-round supremacy in athletics, Roosevelt was awarded the I-lellmich Trophy. This award is given to the school having the best record in athletics during the year. Roosevelt gained it by virtue of first places in baseball and track, second places in tennis and golf, third place in football, and a tie for fourth in basketball. The school winning it three times gets permanent possession of it. Soldan has won it twice and Roosevelt once. WILLIAM BRINKMAN One Hundred Sem-nty-lLL'o H TEN N IS- 1 93 2 ROOSEVELT PLACES SECOND This year's tennis team, consisting of players inexperienced in inter- scholastic tournament play, made a notable showing and is deserving of much credit. Their coach, Mr. Lorenzen, is to be congratulated upon the selection of such a splendid team. The weakness of last year's team lay mainly in the double combination which failed to click. This year a pair of players, Sidney Ladin and Norman Richardson, were grouped together, forming a fine doubles team. Winning three matches and losing two, they finally attained second place. Next year's team, with Markwort, Richardson, and Hanneke, who are already experienced in tournament play, should be of good caliber. The following is a brief summary of this year's tournament: Beaumont 2-Roosevelt 2 Markwort easily won his match, and the doubles team, after starting slowly, won 8-6, 6-2. Central I-Roosevelt 3 The three single players won their matches, while the doubles team lost to what was possibly the best doubles combination in the tournament. One of the best played matches of the entire tournament was played by Ed Waters, Roosevelt's third man. Waters started out by losing the first set I-6, then he settled down, and took the next two sets by score of l I-9, 7-5. McKinley 0-Roosevelt 4 This was lVlcKinley's first year in interscholastic tennis, and it was not too much for Roosevelt to make a clean sweep of the matches. Hanneke substi- tuted for Waters as third man and, after a weak start, won 6-I, 6-0. Soldan 4-Roosevelt 0 Roosevelt's championship aspirations were ruined by a decidedly more experienced and superior Soldan team. But our boys were not easily downed as they hotly contested every point. Cleveland 0-Roosevelt 4 ln the game between Cleveland and Roosevelt, our team won, thereby gaining second place by one match. Reinholdt was the only one forced to extend himself, but finally came out on top by a 6-2, 9-7 score. ln the final standing, Soldan was first, Roosevelt, second: Beaumont, third. The individual ratings are as follows: Won Lost Herbert Markwort, first man . . ,. . 4 I Wm. Reinholdt, second man , . . 3 2 Edward Waters, third man .. . , 2 2 S. Ladin, N.

We know that he was first a surveyor, later an officer in the Virginia militia, a member of the Virginia Assembly, and a delegate to the Colonial Convention at which he was given command of the Continental Army. All of us have read of his exploits in the Revolutionary War and know that he worked solely for the cause of freedom, not for personal glory. We know that he was president of the Constitutional Conven- tion and was later elected first President of the United States to uphold and administer the constitution which he had helped formulate. All this and more we have read, or have had told to us, until, finally we have come to regard Washington as a fabulous demi-god, or hero of some adventure book. Most of us have idealized him and find it difficult to think of Washington as a human being. It is only after we have had an opportunity to see the things he saw, to walk where he walked, and to feel the things he used that we realize that Washington was a man. It was our privilege to do just these things last summer when we visited Mount Vernon. Mount Vernon is at present, a privately owned but nationally venerated shrine. The estate is surrounded by a huge wall on which ivy grows profusely. The entrance is a large, grilled-iron doorway, where, incidentally, twenty-five cents admission is asked. As we walk up the graveled path we somehow begin to feel Washington, for he must have walked or ridden over this same route hundreds of times. On either side of the path are huge, grassy tracts, beautiful shrubbery, and stately trees. We have hardly sufficient time to see the scattered white brick houses, the spinning room, greenhouse, tool room, and slave quarters when Mount Vernon itself is directly before us. Even from the rear, for the building fronts on the Potomac, we can appreciate the colonial grandeur of the mansion. The close-clipped bowling green, the large brown stone sun-dial in the half-circle formed by the wings of the house, and the gleaming white of the house itself form a pleasant harmony of color. We begin at the right, intent on seeing the house thoroughly, and from the begin- ning are captivated by it. For example, a kitchen is usually a most prosaic room, but the simplicity of this one with its many shining copper utensils, its monstrous fireplace, and its atmosphere of practicability and orderliness leaves us astonished, half expecting to hear some southern mammy sternly order, Get outen ma' Way, Massa Washington done be mad effen Ah don git dis yere suppah ready right now. Half regretfully, half expectantly, we leave this room, but find regrets unnecessary and hopes justified: room after room, each distinctive, each beautiful in itself. filled with furniture, rugs, and articles One Hundred Eighty-two 22213 W1 I 54571 that would drive an antique-lover to distraction. There is a quilt made by Martha Washingtong there are Washington's spectacles. One wonders Where the family can be. The house seems to be ready for their return and one doubts that Martha is going to like all these people walking on her newly scrubbed floors. But that's silly! Martha died over a hundred years ago, still-Now out on to the porch, and what a porch it is! Surely a dance could be held and never inconvenience a crowd. ln front is the Potomac, really beautiful as seen here through that lacework of leaves. Many must have been the times that Washington, the soldier, or Washington, the presi- dent, longed to see the very scene. One Hundred Eighty-lhree WU But we must go on, on to a silent place in this huge estate to the tomb of Washington. It may seem sentimental to say that as we stand before the iron grill we feel a lump in our throats, but there before us are the earthly remains of the greatest of Americans. There in that stone tomb lies the man who owned this estate but who left the sight of such beauty to serve his country during the best years of his life. We think of that room in the house, there on the hill, in which this leader died, we think of him as he was, and he begins to live for us in memory. It is strange, but it takes that tomb to make us fully realize that Washington livedg and the lump in our throats and the mist before our eyes makes us realize that while it is true that Washington was 'ifirst in war and first in peace, it is just as true that he is ufirst in the hearts of his countrymen. ARTHUR KUHL Lf: 52 T' . 55 ROOSEVELT SCORES IN ORATORICAL CONTEST Roosevelt was successful in the annual Washington University Oratorical Contest, held in Graham Memorial Chapel, Friday, April 22. Roosevelt's girl representative was Elsie Yehling speaking on American Ideals, while the Rough Rider entry in the boys' division, Arthur Kuhl, spoke on the subject Makers of America. Arthur gained third place and scored a point toward the permanent possession of the Washington Trophy for Roosevelt. This point is credited toward the boys' new cup, as Roosevelt boy representatives brought the first cup to its permanent resting place, Roosevelt's Trophy case, last year. . Rosemary Thorpe, Soldan representative, paying tribute to Abraham Lincoln, was proclaimed winner in the girls' class, while Everett Storey, Cleveland's entry, expounding the New Philosophy transported the boys' cup to the Carondelet camp. The principals of the five high schools acted as judges. Both Elsie and Arthur made a showing of which Roosevelt may well be and is proud. ALBERT E. SCHOENBECK One Hundred Eighty-four One Hundred Eighty-five -- 1- vt-Ph YQ-123 H af-1971 DEBATING TEAM BOY'S INTERSCHOLASTIC DEBATES The Princeton Cup Debates held this year were on a timely subject: namely, Resolved, that legislation providing for Compulsory Unemployment Insurance be enacted in this country. At Central our team, consisting of Harold Clark, Carl Morisse, Arthur Kuhl, and Wright King, alternate, upheld the negative side of the question and gained a two-to-one decision over the Central debaters. At Roosevelt, our affirmative team of lrwin Johnson, Eli Pultman, Albert Schoenbeck, and Harry James, alternate, was less successful, losing to Cleveland's negative team by a unanimous decision. Cleveland had won the Princeton Cup, twice in previous years, and by defeating Roosevelt's affirmative team and Soldan's negative team, she gained permanent possession of the cup as it is necessary to win it only three times.

Then we skidded, and luckily no one was hurt, for we skidded right into our dear old Alma Mater just in time to see the curtain go up on one of the best plays ever given at Roosevelt. A superb cast, a wonderful coach, an excellent play-what could be better for one night's enjoyment? Let's go back to last April Z9 and peek in on a few scenes from Skiddirzg. The first shows Andy, the young brother flames Saylerl trying to work a cross word puzzle and succeeding only because of the knowledge of his school teacher, Aunt Millie fMildred Naertl. Soon in comes little Mrs. Hardy fMary Mizellf who, unfortunately, is one of those persons who can not get the difference between nomination and election straightened out. Her husband, the stern Judge Hardy fAl Schattgenl is going to run for a reelection, providing he gets the nomination. Everything looks bad for the Hardy family until the youngest daughter, Marian fAlethe Cammannj, comes home from college. She brightens things a little, but then she explodes a bomb by announcing that she has brought a friend, Wayne Trenton lll flames Rotheryj, with her. ln reality, Wayne is her fiance, but this fact is kept secret from the family. Estelle and Myra fVirginia Ebrecht and Ruth Crowderj, the two married sisters who have left their husbands and come home to mother, are very cynical and frown on the marriage of Marian to Wayne, although it is now sanctioned by the family. A little difficulty comes in that Wayne objects to Marian's continual desire for a political career, believing that a career and marriage do not blend successfully. Dear old Grandpa fAl Averyl made us laugh every time he entered the scene and talked in that funny little voice. After Estelle and Myra come home, Grandpa has to live in the woodshed and try to care for Junior, E.stelle's small son. Mrs. Hardy can't stand having all her daughters come home to mother, so she packs up and goes home to mother. Everything goes wrong then: the meals cause indigestiong the bills run higher than usual, Judge Hardy begins losing in the political race rapidlyg Marian has been asked to run for the legislature and when she accepts the honor, coolness comes between her and Wayne. Unknowingly Oscar Stubbins M. Eastl, Mr. l-lardy's political manager, almost completely destroys the romance by continually urging Marian on to higher honors in politics, but eventually every- thing comes out all right. Estelle and Myra return to their husbandsg Mama Hardy comes back home, Judge l-lardy wins the electiong Marian and Wayne are reconciledg Grandpa comes once more to live in the house: and Andy acquires a new friend. As for the characters: One Hundred Ninety-three N29-13 JKINIHQJJJ Alethe Camman's acting will never be forgotten. James Sayler and Al Avery certainly showed their ability in acting as comedians while Virginia Ebrecht and Ruth Crowder were splendid as the two know-it-all sisters- Mary Mizell and Al Schattgen were true to life as Mom and Pop, and last, but not least, we take our hats off to Mildred Naert who capably undertook and acted the part of Aunt Millie, and to M. East, who was an honest-to- goodness politician. The audience was small, but the applause was great as the curtain came down on the final scene of one of the most entertaining Senior Plays ever given--Skidding. All the praise that can be given goes to Miss Duffett who so excellently coached the play.

IRWIN jOHNSON AND FRANCES FULLER One Hundred Ninety-seven SENlOR PLAY-DECEMBER, 1932 Onxlfumlr, P-'z'17:'ly-c'igl7t t A e 1 SENIOR PLAY--DECEMBER, 1932 An old hacienda, roses, Spanish shawls, mantillas, castanets-Spain! This was the picturesque setting for the delightful two-act comedy, Money Talks, which was presented by the Senior Class of January, 1933, on the evening of December 2, l932. The play was directed by Miss Charity Grace. Carlos, who has come to visit his aunt, Dona Dolores, and his uncle, Don lndalecio, pretends to be very ill. He wants his loving relatives to give him four thousand pesetas, supposedly for an operation in Paris, but in reality for payment of some personal debts which he has contracted in Madrid. He confides in Maruja, his beautiful cousin with whom he has fallen in love, and she endeavors to help him out of his predicament. Much of the comedy is furnished by lndalecio, who is very fond of eating, and who believes that his nephew should have plenty of good food. Dolores, his wife, however, puts poor Carlos on a milk diet, although he has had nothing to eat for sixteen hours. Dona Blasa, a very talkative lady of the town, is anxious to marry her bashful son, Pio, to Maruja, but he has already decided to become a priest. Saturio, the village doctor, examines the patient and decides that he is suffering from nervousness. Alas for poor Carlos! The matter becomes more complicated when Zaragiieta, the money-lender to whom Carlos owes three thousand pesetas, comes to Don lndalecio to collect his money. The aunt and uncle believe that he is Carlos' doctor from Madrid: and Zaragiieta, who is very deaf, does not realize that they do not know who he is. Every- thing ends happily, however, for lndalecio pays what he thinks is a doctor's bill for three thousand pesetas, and Money Talksi' ends with the promise of marriage between Maruja and Carlos to be performed by Pio, the new priest. The parts of Maruja and Carlos, the charming lovers, were played splen- didly by Jane Garrett and Eli Pultman. And who would have guessed that Arthur Kuhl, excellent in the part of lndalecio, could have had such an enormous appetite! Janita Walters charmingly portrayed the sweet and sympathetic aunt, the shrewd, old money-lender with the silk hat, cane, and white spats was none other than that wonderful character actor, lrwin Johnson. William Cuthbertson ably took the part of Dr. Saturio, and William Brinkman was very fine as the stuttering son of Dona Blasa, cleverly portrayed by Stella Rosen. Sophie Roguski, as Gregoria, the servant girl, Joe Codemo, as the gardenerg and Perry Short, as the village carriage driver, also displayed unusual dramatic ability. The senior class owes a vote of thanks to Miss Charity Grace for her untiring work, and to Miss Gray, Miss Comfort, Miss Watt, Miss Elmore, and Mr. Reynolds for their help in making Money Talks a great success. A novel feature of the program was an attractive Spanish dance by Leona Lankau. The music for the occasion was furnished by the Roosevelt Band and the Triple Qllaftette.

It is painted white with green shud- ders and small paned windows. 3. The innkeeper looked at him be- grudgingly and came plundering to the window. 4. I-le watched the performance in- tensely for a few minutes. 5. The rug had a look of assurance from moths. 6. He could not sustain himself and let out a war whoop. 7. l-le wore an old gray cap with many spots on it and his hair was distorted. 8. Macbeth went to see the whiches. 9.

'ulliilsl xi 'Sergeant A1 Armsi SCHOOL DAZE Grades in school seem awful steep. A passing grade in college is uphill work. Some minds should not only be culti- vated but plowed under. A school belle usually gets many rings. Geometry professors must be plane teachers. Many pupils are spell bound. Most pupils wish that history would repeat itself. When the kid's vacation is over, moth- er's starts. A man of letters--the mailman. The three R's to a Roosevelt student are Recline, Relax, and Rest. Strange that commencement is the end of school. A spelling bee creates a lot of buzz. Arithmetic is sum study. 1 1 1 ls Jones opinionated? Say, he has fallen arches from taking stands on ques- tions. , , , The doctor looked at the man who had reported for examination. l'll examine you carefully, sir, for five dollars. All right, said the patient, Hand if you find it, I'll split fifty-fifty. Two Hundred Sixty-seven t, L i.

We will soon be in the subway on somebody else's. 1 1 1 A mother told her small son never to go into the homes of his little friends if a placard were displayed, as he might be exposed to a contagious disease. Sending him to a neighboring home on an errand, she was surprised when he returned almost immediately. Mother, l didn't go in that house, the folks there have 'Hemstitchingf H 1 1 1 just before Will Rogers first met President Coolidge, one of Will's friends said: I'l1 bet you can't make Cal laugh in two minutes. ul bet he'll laugh in twenty seconds, answered Will. Then came the introduction. Mr. Coolidge, l want to introduce Mr. Will Rogers. Will held out his hand, looked very confused, then said: Excuse me, l didn't quite get the name. 1 1 1 Mistress-Did you empty the water under the refrigerator? Green Girl-Yes'm, and put in some fresh. 1 1 1 We had a sensational case of kid- napping at our house last night. Sure enough? Yes, the baby slept all night.

Gracious! exclaimed Mrs. Bargin- hunt. And you got the remnant! 1 1 1 Mother: What did your father say when you told him you smashed the radiator on the new car? Son: Shall l leave out the swear words? Mother: Yes, of course. Son: 'il-le didn't say a word. 1 1 1 Yes, said the self-made man, ul was left an orphan at nine months, and ever since l've had to battle along for myself. ul-low did you support yourself at nine months? Ml crawled to a baby show and won first prize. 1 1 1 Teacher: Surely you know what the word mirror means, Tommy. After you've washed, what do you look at to see if your face is clean? Tommy: The towel, sir! 1 1 1 Bookkeeper: liwhat is the boss' col- lege son so swelled up about? Stenographer: UA life insurance doctor just examined him and found him O. K. Bookkeeper: What of it? Stenographer: It's the only examina- tion he ever passed. 1 1 1 Mary, inquired the mistress sus- piciously, udid you wash this fish care- fully before you baked it? Oh, ma'am, replied Mary, wot's the use of washin' a fish that lived all his life in the water? , Neem I I CTION, As l walked down the corridor the other day, l began to wonder what Roose- velt would be like-1 If there were no haughty Seniors. If there were no conceited New Seniors. If the New Jays kept out of one's way. lf the chairman of the Property Com- mittee locked his lockers and ceased 'iwisecrackingf' If the mayor lost his Disraeli-hand position. If G. W. fnot George Washington? hadn't written those caustic comments in his column Round School. If this column hadn't been written. fe, W' Mrs. Mosquito: Where is your daugh- ter, Mrs. Fly? Mrs. l-lorselly: She just went to the front door for a screen test. 1 1 1 A well known song writer found him- self beside a very nervous gentleman at dinner. The nervous one awkwardly attempted to compliment the author, who promptly changed the subject. Finding his neighbor to be dumb on all other sub- jects, he eventually said, to make conver- sation: ul-lave you heard my last? Taken by surprise, for he had not the remotest idea what the writer's latest song was, the other replied: Oh, yes, l hope so! Then, realizing his blunder, he floundered on: That is-er-l mean to say-l hope l never shall!

A trainman on top of a car was giving signals to the en- gineman, when he dropped and broke his lantern. Another man on the ground tossed his lighted lantern up to the man on top of the car. In a few minutes the fireman, who was a new employe, came back and called to the man on top: Let's see you do that again. Do what? asked the brakeman. Jump from the ground to the top of a box car, answered the fireman. 1 1 1 The absent-minded professor drove up to his garage door, looked inside, and blinked. Then he leaped back into the car and drove like fury to the police station. Sergeant, he gasped, my garage is empty. My car has been stolen. 1 1 1 What kind'a watch yo' got? Ah has a wonclah watch. Wondah watch, neber heard ob it. Well, it's dis way: Ever' time Ah looks at it, Ah Wondahs what time it is. 1 1 1 Lanclladyz You'lI have to pay your bill or leave. Lodger: Thanks, awfully. My last landlady made me do both! 1 1 1 AN INNOCENT DIG Little Anna asked her father why he didn't have any hair on top of his head. I-Ie answered, For the same reason that grass won't grow on a busy street. You know why now: don't you? Oh, yes, she replied, it can't get up through the concrete.

In that short space of time I have been able to advance from office girl and stenographer to secretary to a physician. Looking back on those months of concen- trated e5ort and mental discipline spent in your school. l can realize more readily the value of the principles and spirit your teachers put into the work. I think the school, its ideals, its teachers, are splendid, and I do not hesitate to recommend Rubicam warmly to any young per- son seeking a firm technical basis for the de- velopment of a business career. Helen 0. Kempster Private Secretary to Dr. H. L. Alexander, Barnes Hospital Roosevelt High School XVashington University Rubicam 1931-2 Rubicam- After my placement in my present position of stenographer eight months ago, I began to ap- preciate the real value of a Rubicam training. I realize that without this training I should be practically at a stand-still. It is apparent to me that in order to get a start in business, it is essential to have something definite to oEer a prospective employer. Rubicam Business School has given me a most thorough business training, and I can recommend without hesitancy your school to any person wishing a complete course of in- struction. I wish to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to your splendid staff of instructors for the interest shown me during my time at the Rubicam Business School.
