Kwik' lsumqv M bmgnaof, fx Eighteen High school science is taught primarily to create student interest in a line of work that is the cornerstone of modern civilization. It enables him to grasp some fundamental laws and their appli- cation to daily life and teaches him that it is impossible to avoid science. Be- cause of this. the student is anxious to study thoroughly a subject, which he will constantly meet up with in life. A work bench, cluttered with tools, rising from a two-foot pile of shavings is the carpenter's paradise. Every man, no matter what line of work he is in, would like to get into that room to finish piling tools on the bench and to increase the depth of the shavings heap. Virginia gives every boy the chance to determine in which line of work his vocational interest lies. Educators believe that students should learn to do better the Worthwhile things. Home Economics changes from a sub- ject of foods and clothing for girls to a study of all basic activities for both boys and girls. Child care, home fur- nishings, marketing, budgets, food se- lection, clothing and textiles, all are taught in order to prepare students for worthy home membership. Academic offerings at Roosevelt are many. They range from geometry to geology, from A.merican government to English Literature. Their purposes are to teach the student how to write and speak correctly and effectivelyg to ac- quaint him with the best that has been thought and expressedg to lead him to discover the relative values of all human goods, and to teach that things do not happen by chance, but according to the dictates of an invariable sanity. Art is defined by some as an expression of an inner truth that the artist conveys to his fellowmen. A knowledge of the basic principles of art gives the layman an understanding or mastery of one more language by which communication be- tween layman and artist may be perfect- cd. An attempt is made in our Art de- partment to master a knowledge of basic principles hand in hand with creative work. 'Mid clicking typewriters and tinkling bells, the steady march toward business perfection continues through the years. Enterprising crusaders, in ever-increas- ing numbers, adopt the business world's motto-speed and accuracy always-in order to join the endless caravan that moves toward its coveted goal, a success- ful career in the modern world of business. In the printing department, pre-vocation- al students are taught the fundamentals of printing, which include its history and minor operations in the mechanical end. Vocational pupils are given instruction and training of a practical and related nature: han d composition, linotype, presswork, and bindery. School publica- tions as well as many commercial forms for the school system are printed in this department. The wealth of a nation may be measured in terms of gold or silver, but its true wealth lies within the four' walls of a library. Books, the written record of other men's thoughts and deeds, enable both reader and author to travel down the glamorous paths of the past togeth- er to live-not merely exist-in the glorious present, and to explore the puz- zling mysteries of the future.

There was smoke in that pit-the smoke of toil for the sake of progress. There was dust in that pit-dust of the earth and its elements. There was ore in that pit-ore of iron, upon Whose Wheels the chariot of civilization moves forward. And when he came from the pit, he brought with him Dusty overalls- And a clean mindg Dusty overalls- And a clean soulg Dusty overalls-- And the thought of a day's work well done.

I see your men walking down the street With dinnerpails in their hands and iron dust in their noses. I see your streets in the spring, Streets with slushy snow, Dirty, slushy, sandy snow in the spring. I see your children playing in the streets, Dodging cars and playing baseball. On Mondays, they splash in a tiled pool in the school buildingg On Sundays six of them go to Sunday school And two of your children go to church. Saturday they shoot skunks and robins with their twenty-twos. Children of Swedes, Finns, and Italians, Children of many lands. I see your women washing clothes and scrubbing floors. I see them rushing to sales and crowding counters. They pass each other in fur coats and thread-bare serge coats. They sit long hours painting their cheeks, And a woman washes her face in laundry soap. Virginia, I see your people turning up overcoat collars to keep out the cold. Your children stamp their feet so they won't freeze their toes. Virginia, I see your people sweating in a blazing sun. They look for some shade to get out of the burning heat. Virginia, I see your people hiding behind umbrellas. They run into buildings so they won't get wet. City of many weathers. City of many nations, Queen City of the Iron Range. il . x 2 1? I 'X ' l, .

No truer representative could be chosen, who more fully stands for the best that is in the class. Bernard Hughes Vice President He has ideas and ideals and the courage of his convictions. His clear thinking and sincerity make him a valuable ad- dition to any class coun- c'l and a fine vice presi- dent for the January class ot' 1931. Marjorie Dewar Secretary A lovely little lady whose scholarship ranks first in her class is Marjorie Dewar. A true artist, she has a fine record of achievement, both in and out of school. The class is indeed proud to claim her as its secretary. George Vanderpoel Treasurer A studious youth with a slow smile is the watch- ful guardian of the class funds. Because of the large amount of money which the treasurer han- dles, the class has chosen George- the dependable -for its class treasurer. Twenty Three JUNE CLASS OFFICERS Clarke Trudeau President Artist. athlete, journalist, scholar - gentlemen - that is Clarke Trudeau. His versatility is his out- sanding characteristic. Clarke does everything and does it well. He is a real representative, as a president should be. Jack Bankman Vice President linthusiasm and reliabil- ity stand out among all of .lack's traits of good character. Because of them, he has bet-onie one of the school's outstand- ing citizens. He has established himself so prominently in outside activities that none seems complete without him. Grace Darin Secretary Scholarship is Gra.ce's greatest accomplishment, hut it is by no means her only one. A long list of extra-curricular activi- ties ranks her with the most prominent members of her class. Arthur Emmons Treasurer A mathematical mind is one of the chief requisites of a class treasurer. Arthur's intelligence, his unquestionable character, :Ind his ability to handle figures make him the logical choice of the June 1-lass of 1931. , Class Motto: We leave the runway, rising.

Chimes Why The Chimes Rang is a classic of the Christmas season. It was from an old legend of the Medieval Ages. The story tells how a little boy of Tralsund wishes to offer up his pennies to the Christ child on the altar of the cathedral, but is prevented from going by the appearance of an old beggar. He is rewarded by being sent the beautiful vision of the cathedral altar and the pageant of offering, and by hearing the chimes ring out as his own pennies are offered up. adapted the gift , F I iz x J, - Q 4 K lr ii,f. mMl H .W V WWF-if ' ' 9' X VH? , N -- , 1' , , wr!

January National Honor Society Character, Scholarship, Leadership, and Service are the basic requirements of the National Honor Society. Character, measured not only by words and deeds, but by unspoken thoughts, is the first requisite. Next comes scholarship, not only high scholastic rating, but the willingness to study and to develop a keen and useful brain, the desire to enter into the thoughts of others, to be taught by themg the ability to keep an open mind on every question, the habit of accuracy, of looking intently at facts and assuring oneself of their meaning, item by item. Leadership, to be an able, fair leader of people, with an active mind planning for the Well being of those Who are the followers, and service, the unselfish devotion to the school, giving unstintedly of time and labor-these are the bases of the election into the society. Character, Scholarship, Leadership, and Service-almost sacred Words they have become. Through three years the seniors have heard them, but with each repetition they have taken on a deeper significance. Character, Scholarship, Leadership, and Service4this motto is the cornerstone of all Roosevelt High School activitiesgspiritual, moral, athletic, literary, patriotic, vocational-all phases of school life. The award, a small bronze emblem bearing a torch and the initials of the society, is a symbol of personal development and untiring service to the school. After finishing his high school career with success, having found and filled his place admirably in the social community, his school, and having become an intelligent co-worker, a student elected to the society is capable of holding a prominent position in the world of affairs, a social and business community of which his high school was only a miniature.

The Debate Team It has been truthfully said that whether you sell your services or whether you sell a commodity when you go into business you must first sell yourself. Cosmetics, life-buoy soap, and listerine are only by-products in the process. In your relative ability to speak lies the real determiner of your success. VVhen you sell your services or a commodity, you are going to meet objections, and these objections will be logical arguments. Your success will lie in your ability to meet the argument. This training in logical thinking on the spur of the moment and in general good speech is secured through work in debate. In the Virginia High School, debate is being recognized more and more as an important extra-curricular activity. The greater interest was evidenced by the fact that approximately fifteen students 'tried out for the team last fall. Of that number six were selected for the team and one for student manager. The first debate of the season was held at International Falls on January ninth with the Virginia negative team debating. This debate was lost to the Falls by an unanimous decision, In the next debate, held in our own auditorium on January fifteenth, the Virginia affirmative team won from the Eveleth negative team by a two-to-one decision. Virginia was represented by Genevieve Hillman, .lack Bankman. and Grace Darin. This encounter was followed by another victory when the Virginia affirmative team Won a two-to-one decision against Ely's negative team at Ely. The last debate of Virginia's season was held in our home auditorium against Gilbert's affirmative team. Gilbert Won two to one and was, therefore, awarded the district championship. Inte1'national Falls held a close second with a total of nine points to Gilbert's ten. Duluth Central defeated Gilbert for regional honors and won the right to compete in the State contest.

So spake Tennyson, and so speaks the journalist 0. today. In high schools, the vocational aim of news work is steadily passing into oblivion, while the cultural objective, with appreciation of the American newspaper as its keynote, strides forward with incredible speed. Sta- tistics show that over fifty per cent of the country's adults read newspapers only. How infinitely valuable, then, that in the secondary schools there be courses tending to ,make more intelligent and discriminating readers of that popular type of literature forming the bulk of the reading matter of the great masses. More and more, there- fore, the modern journalism course stresses newspaper types and policies, the history of the beginnings and development of the American newspaper, outstanding news- paper personalities, press associations and syndicates, newspaper consolidations, and the demoralizing yellow press whose stock in trade is malicious coloring, faking, cruel and pitiless publicity, and crime. Metropolitan and small community papers of today are sometimes criticized. Let us notice one fact of prime importance. The one and only way we can have better newspapers is to have more intelligent readers. The press does not create tastesg it reflects them. The only way to bring papers to a higher plane is to bring the readers to a plane of discrimination where they will demand the better type of journalism. If our educational system can stand this movement and start it effectively enough that it will carry over into practical life, then and then only the newspapers which we now criticize will be the kind we want them to be. In addition to the study of the American newspaper, the high school course offers experience in the writing of editorial, feature, and news articlesea practical method of teaching effective composition. Impetus is given for better Work when from time to time editorial copy is entered in state and national contests.

AnnualgStaff The annual is a factor of vital importance in nearly all educational centers. Its yearly appearance is looked forward to as eagerly as any event on the school calen- dar. Not only is the annual kept and cherished by the students, but it is placed in the files of the office where it serves as practically the only official record of the school year in which it was published-a veritable autobiography which accounts for every day of school life as long as the institution lives. This panorama illustrates the transition that takes place in educational procedure and the methods by which it comes about. Through its pages the entire school marches, in the slow tread of years, past the reviewing stand of today into a mellowing yesterday but never into oblivion . Of no less importance is the fact that the high school annual fur- nishes a ,means for preserving creative work in both writing and art. But an annual may do even more. It may serve the community: typify its people, express its ideals, and recall its achievements. The annual staff is selected in September. It begins work immediately and the pressroom, serving as the staff's headquarters, becomes the typical news office-the Mecca of high school life. All steps lead to it: to examine, to write, to criticize, to encourage. The room is constantly sizzling with enthusiasm. A theme is selected, and the general planning for the layout of the book commences. Articles are written, pictures taken, art copy is prepared. The year passes and out of the hustle and bustle, masses of papers, and jumble of ink bottles, paste, and pictures, emerges the completed annual. This year's staff had for its aim the creation of a volume that is truly repre- sentative of Virginia, a book to be looked upon as an illuminating, trustworthy, and permanent history of this school year. f 5 -.-'Q--' Q .. 5' ':'ff H ' gk V.

Senior A Council Experience has taught us that the united action of a small group of representa- tives will eventually produce the best results in government. Using this theory, the June class has done its many tasks through a selected group of seniors. The Senior Council served as a ways and means committee, acting for the class in every matter which demanded the united effort of the group. The class executive committee picked a group- of representative seniors after careful consideration to act as members of the council, Once each week during the year, the council met in the social room to discuss the affairs of interest to the class and to the school. The council carefully considered all ideas and plans before taking definite action. During the year, it managed the senior social hour, class night, class day, and the organization of a senior class orchestra. It also appointed numerous committees for other activities. Perhaps their most important contribution from the viewpoint of the school as a whole was the formulation of a code of ethics for Roosevelt High School students to follow. The code was signed by all twelve A .members who pledged their support to its principles. It was then presented to the school. The Expression of School Ethics follows: We, the Seniors, aim to promote: 1 An attitude of respect and appreciation for all assemblies and public performances. 2. Respectful conduct in the halls. 3 The preservation of this, our new building and its unmarred equipment, which it is our privilege to use. -1 A spirit that is a contributing factor in the class room and in all other phases of school life. 5. An appreciative regard for our present privileged freedom in the library. 6. A spirit of fellowship as we mingle with each other in and about school. When I was a child I spake as a child. I understood as a child, I thought as a childg but when I became a man I put away childish things. I Cor. 13-ll. The Seniors were justified in their belief that no one could pledge his support to anything so noble as the code and forget it a moment afterwards. Better be- havior in the corridors and greater school cooperation resulted. 1 ' 5 , it 1..-'fwf i 0 ii .Nh ,. mt wiviwaisrw LB at M3 , ,vl Fifty Seven Staimliliggltlariv Devic-li, lfistlier Kziiigzis.

High School Dramatic Club , Each of us has, at some time or other, felt a natural desire to be somebody else. This is a physical impossibility, yet it is possible in some measure to gratify our desire through interpretation of different charactels in dramatic work. One can at will become for a time a prince or princess in a medieval castle, a knight at King Arthur's court, a Viking bold, faring unafraid upon the vast uncharted ocean in search of adventure, a second Robin Hood, secure in his forest fastnessesg or :1 wandering redskin, monarch of all he surveys. One can be all these and any other character of his imagination. Virginia High School students have been given an opportunity to impersonate through the organization of a high school dramatic club. The High School Dramatic Club, composed of members of the dramatics class, has as its aim the furthering of an appreciation of spoken drama not only by studying some of our best plays and giving class interpretations of characters in these productions, but by the study and presentation of one-acts in assembly, con- vocations, before small audiences, and in the classroom. Into the development of a keener enjoyment in drama, which is fostered in the study of high school dramatics, goes the study of people, their actions, their thoughts, their personal characteristics, and the portrayal of these through pantomime, spoken, original playlets, and silent plays. The fundamentals of stage technique and acting are taught, together with the essentials of play production. Each student is given some practical experience in both acting and producing so that he will be able to take his part in acting or directing in community, club, or church plays. The list of dramas prepared for public presentation by the club during the second semester includes Mrs, Pat and the Law , The Boy Who Discovered Easter , Three Pills in a Bottle , Moonshine , The Twelve Pound Look , and a group of one-act plays directed by members of the class. . Marjorie Dewar acted as chairman of the club during the first semester. Miriam Raihala was club secretary, Dolly Schibel was costume managerg and Gladys Christian, stage manager. The aim of the club, to further interest in the Drama, was well accomplished during the year by the activities of the organization. i 1 -Fi i ,551 2 F 5, F , Q. -K . ,fi 'v.,N 'f L, ,, , --4,6 ',jw-'ff ' , 4 ' f, p -. - , 5 , ' if 4... 1, . i , +E Q ,,...'ng,,,Six,' 44' Q 5: wr A , 11 : - e .

Girls' Forensic Club The Girls' Forensic Club was organized last year by a group of girls for the purpose of improving the speaking ability of its members, of developing interest in creative writing, and of promoting social life among the girls of the school. In order to be eligible for admission to the Girls' Forensic Club, the following qualifications are necessary, an applicant must be a student of the Virginia High School, she must have been attending this school for at least one semester preceding her admissiong and she must have an average of D in all her subjects. Membership in this club is limited to thirty members. A member is automatically dropped from the club on her graduation. Any girl who wishes to join the club may submit her application to the dean of students, to the club director, or to the president of the organization. New members are selected from the list of applicants by an executive committee composed of the dean of students and the club adviser, together with the president, vice president, and secretary of the club. On February twenty-eighth the club gave a Forensic tea to which the members of all the other girls' organizations in the school were invited. Miss Arlander poured. The charter members of the club are Jeanice Patten, Mary Hall, Florence Vipoulou, Grace Darin, Anstice Butler, Katherine Bergeson, Margaret Scharr, Margaret Lillico, Rita Swain, Lucille Prasky, Irene Mattson, Genevieve Hillman, Louise Hejda, Miriam Raihala, Maxine Shapiro, Vera Makiverta, Eleanor Poirer, Marjorie Dewar. The club has lost thirteen of its charter members through graduation. Five will graduate this Juneg two left at mid-year, while six graduated previously. Officers of the club include: Grace Darin, presidentg Margaret Scharr, vice presi- dentg Louise Hejda, secretaryg and Maxine Shapiro, treasurer. Miss Le.mstrom acted as the adviser up to the beginning of the second semester when she left the senior high to teach in the junior college. She was succeeded by Miss Ambrose. The club has made much progress during its short existence. A V '1 .. ..x'-.Q 2 A . 'Mr' M I ,- , q..-iv:-in .. N K .

Entre Nous Organized in the fall of 1930, the Entre Nous, despite its youth, has already established its claim to permanency. This society is the only one of its kind in the Virginia High School. It has as its aim a study that will be helpful both in high school life and thereafterg namely, vocations and professions for women, noting the training required, opportunities in the field, and the nature of the work itself. Regular meetings are held every third Monday evening in the Roosevelt Social Room. Programs are planned for every meeting. During each of these meetings a new profession or a new vocation is taken up. At several of the club hours, outside speakers were received. After the business discussion, programs consisting of musical selections, dramatic readings, and dancing are presented. Refreshments are some- times served. Officers are elected by the members at the beginning of each new semes- ter. The present officers are: Lorayne McLeod, president, Martina Panion, vice president, Marguerite Hill, secretary, Joy Lenont, treasurerg Frances Hoey, sergeant- at-aiqmsg and Miss Arlander, faculty adviser. Membership qualifications including a scholarship rating of D in all classes, a two thirds' vote of acceptance by the members, and the approval of Miss Macfarlane are necessary to enter the Entre Nous. Only a lim- ited number is allowed meniebrship in the organization. Besides the study of vocations and professions, the society has had a number of social affairs, thereby promoting fur- ther acquaintance among the girls and the formation of stronger bonds of friendship. This organization, in which interest is rapidly increasing, should prove to be one of the most active and beneficial clubs in the Virginia High School. Much of its success thus far has been due to the able and sympathetic help of Miss Arlande1', faculty adviser. We feel that the knowlege gained from such a society will help each girl to choose the particular life's work for which she is suited. We look forward to a continuation and growth of the club's past activities.

In this field, it has been ably represented by David Dahl, district winner in the oratorical division, who was awarded first with his selection, t'Aaron Burr g and by Ramsey Wieland, who after placing fiist in six hard-fought bouts, competed in the state contest held in St. Paul, where he was awarded the state championship. He kept his various audiences in high gales of laughter with his selection, The School Program . At the National Forensic League contests held at Ripon, Wisconsin, Ramsey received the singular honor of being named the national champion of humorous speech. The club, one of the most active of the school organizations, was organized to promote an interest in Forensics, to enlarge speaking ability, to encourage development along mental lines, to unite students, and to prepare for successful coping' with some of life's problems. The boys' extemporaneous speaking contest was sponsored by the club, and prizes were purchased with the money in the treasury. First prize in the contest was won by one of its members, Conrad Stampahor. The St. Patrick's Day social hour was also put on veiy successfully by the club. During the past year, a new method of roll call has been instituted, which has proved satisfactory. The members answer to their names with some form of entertainment. The ,membership is limited to twenty members, however, if ten boys seek admission to the club, the membership will be increased to five more. The membership can at no time exceed thirty boys. To be eligible for admission to the club, an applicant must be a boy and a student of the Virginia High School. His scholastic standing must be passing. New members are selected by a committee composed of three faculty members, one of whom is the public speaking teacher, the remaining two faculty members to be elected by a majority vote of the society, and the president. and the secretary of the club. Oflicers of the club are: David Dahl, president, Howard Sigel, vice presidentg Robert Bushnell, sccretaryg Frederick Ilse, treasurer, and Anthony Miltich, sergeant- at-arms. ,- 'V K T' l U . . -5A ' .5 y F if 1.-,L i . , . c .M .fam . 4 Sirly Om' liucli IiowfXXcsln-y .lzllxiicsolp NVilli:1m ll,c'l1al'dS, liaiyinuml Myrm- lloln-rl .lolili::ol1.

Applicants must have made a D average the previous semester in order to be eligible for election into the club. Candidates must file an application, along with an initiation fee of one dollar and fifty cents which covers the dues for the year.

Officers for the past year included VVilliam Richards, presidentg John Pepelnjak, vice president, Raymond Myre, secretary, Roger Reed, treasurer. Mr. Olson and Mr. Buntrock were advisers. A group of Virginia Hi-Y members attended the annual Hi-Y Training Conference held in Chisholm on April the twenty-fourth and twenty-fifth.

Picture the same group of girls enjoying themselves at their social gatherings, and at the meetings held every other Monday in the Junior High School cafeteria being entertained by members of the group, and you have a picture of the Hae-W Club. The club was organized in November, nineteen hundred and twenty-eight, primarily as a social organization, although the club undertakes at least one worthwhile project each year. The club has sponsored the girls' extemporaneous speaking contest every year since it was organized. The extemporaneous contest this year was held on March eleventh for the girls and on March twelfth for the boys. Grace Darin won first place in the girls' contest and received a pen and pencil set from the sponsoring society in recognition of her ability. Angeline Znameroski won second place and a tive-year diary. Clara Paciotti as third place winner received a framed etching. The club also puts on social hours and food sales as a ,means of financing the organization. Membership in the organization is limited to eighteen members. To qualify for membership, a gill should have an average of at least D in four subjects of the previous semester. She must be a student in the Virginia Senior High School. Anyone who wishes to join should register with Miss Macfarlane. The list of names is given to the president of the club and members are selected from it by majority vote. Girls who are interested in extra-curricular activities will be considered first. Elections take place twice a year, two weeks before the end of the term in order that the outpgoing members may help elect new members. Officers of the club for the last semester included: Margaret Bentley, presidentg Carol Gish, vice presidentg Anne Spehar, secretaryg Marie Devich, treasurer. yy t ' L,,....l:?...-'liir , ' wie? u- e ....,, 3 g' ,-fvfw, 'Pl.-,fi'??4,,-,pi.f:t-- ..-Lie, .Pi UZ' ' f -'V' L..-y lk- 5611!

Cleo Club Sweet voices harmonize in tuneful songs as the Girls' Glee Club entertains us at assemblies and other affairs. Their music has added a fitting! part to Commencement and Baccalaureate services, to programs outside our school life. The major activity of the first semester of this year was the prcsentation of the comic opera, The Chimes of Normandy , by Robert Planquette. The scene of the opera is laid in a small village, and as the curtain rises, it discloses a group of village maidens talking about Gaspard's intention to marry his niece, Germaine, to the Bailli. This intention does not meet the approval of either Germaine or Grenicheau, and to escape the power of Gaspard, Germaine becomes a servant oi the Marquis, Henri. In the second act, a visit is paid to the castle of the Marquis, which is haunted by supernatural visitors. The dread of the supernatural drives Gaspard crazy. In the last act, Serpolette, a village maiden, arrives as a Marchioness. Gaspard, however, after regaining his senses, discloses that Germaine is really the lost heiress, and the opera ends with the reconciliation and happiness of all concerned. The parts were ably taken by Mona Callister, as Germaincg Clara Pladsen, as Serpoletteg Fay Johnson, Alberta Scholtus, Mary Turino, and Mildred La Fond, as village maidensg Lawrence Hunsinger, as Henrig Donald McFadden, as Grcnicheauag Sanford Magill, as Caspardg Urho Freeman, as the Baillig Clarence Sammann, as the Registrarg Raymond LaFond, as the Assessorg and Clarence Peterson, as the Notary. The cast was assisted by a chorus of peasants from the girls' and boys' glee clubs. The social life of the club also has a part in its activities. Altogether. the club is an enjoyable organization and a neccessary part of our school lifc. :Ja......- . .. I F- -- M 'Q MH t- ' .

Boys' Glce Club If one chooses .music as a life work, an excellent opportunity to acquire skill in one's chosen profession is given in the Virginia High School through the Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs. The Boys' Glee Club, although always outnumbered by the girls' organi- zation, is a popular school club and one whose services have been in demand. During the first semester, the two glee clubs united to put on the comic opera, The Chimes of Normandy . The work of the second semester included preparations for the Fifth Annual Vocal Festival of the Mesaba Range students, held at the Ely High School on May ninth. The numbers of the festival centered around a concertized presentation of the opera Carmen by Bizet. Other numbers on the program were a violin solo by Frank Berilli of Buhlg selections by the Ely orchestra, The Chambered Nautilus and three A-Capella numbers, Old Folks At Home , Now The Day Is Over , and 'fliet My People Go , given by the chorus. Mr. Archie Jones of the University of Minnesota acted as guest conductor of the ensemble. Schools taking part in the festival included Ely, Buhl, Chishol.m, Mt. Iron, and Virginia. The annual May Instrumental Festival was put on four days earlier in Virginia. The club also appeared at the baccalaureate services and at assemblies. A mixed octette was organized from the two glee clubs, the members of which were: Mona Callister, Clara Pladsen, Lucille Greenwood, Marjorie Connors, Donald McFadden, Urho Freeman, Lawrence Hunsinger, and Sanford Magill. In February, the octette sang at an assembly in the Eveleth High School, and a return program was put on by the Evclcth students at our assembly in May. The officers of the first semester Were: Donald McFadden, president, Wesley Jamieson, vice president, Lawrence Hunsinger, secretary-treasurer, and Clarence Peterson, sergeant-at-arms. In t h e second semester, the offices were held by Donald McFadden, president, VVesley Jamieson, vice president, Clarke Trudeau, secretary-treasurerg and Woodrow Carlson, sergeant-at-arms. The activities of the club make it one of the most outstanding' organizations in our school. , 'ffm x I... 1 is -rw le. . I U :g.1is...l..' ' .i..u.'

Fou r-Year Honor Roll A thing wo1'th doing at all is worth doing well. One's high school career is an elementary preparation, a foundation for the future life. Habits of work formed in high school have much influence on one's character and his progress in the world of affairs. Is not, then, one's work in high school worth doingg and since it is worth doing, is it not worth doing well? One's aim in high school should not be primarily to obtain good marks. If each task is cheerfully and conscientiously performed to the best of the individual's ability, marks will take care of themselves. The value of good marks should not be under- estimated, however. When honestly earned, they are a symbol of work well done, of earnest effort, and application to one's work. In applying himself to his lessons, one also learns to concentrate on the task in hand, he learns to be dependable, and he learns to make use of his time to the best advantage. One develops a trained mind, a valuable asset in these days of rushing industrialism. The students who are in the upper one-fourth of their class are for the most part those who have been active in many extra-curricular activities, who have always been ready at all times to be of service to their school, their classmates, and their teachers, who have cheerfully done all and more than was asked of them. They have never shirked their duty and have taken any responsibility that may have been placed on them. In learning to take responsibility, they have learned one of the most valuable lessons in life and one which will be of great assistance to them when they, too, launch into the sea of life. All of these qualities of the typical honor stu- dents constitute what is meant by real scholarship. Those receiving Summa Cum Laude and Cum Laude honors in January numbered eleven, in June, thirty-nine, the largest four year honor roster on record, comprising nearly one-third of the class.

Tri -Hi Try High -these two words, simple but full of meaning, express no other two words can, the aim of the Tri-Hi club. To a member of the club, Try High means trying high mentally, morally, and physically, and doing her best in all that sho may undertake. The club was organized in the fall of 15128 as a luncheon club for the girls of the school. Since then it has conducted many successful enterprises. Each semester a social hour has been sponsored by the girls. Last December the club held a Christmas dance at the Masonic Temple, which was well attended. The proceeds of the dance were used to give a benefit party for needy children of the city. The party, held just before Christmas, furnished an afternoon's enjoyment for about twenty small children. In April a letterwoman's banquet was given by the Tri-Hi for the members of the Girls' Swimming Team who had earned their letters this year. An interesting speech and a short musical program followed the banquet. The membership of the club is limited to eighteen. Members automatically lose their membership when they graduate. An election of new members is held each mid-year and June to fill the vacancies. Any Senior High girl is eligible to membership if she has an average oi' D in her subjects and is not a member of another school club. An unanimous vote of the members is necessary for admission to the club. Meetings are held on alternate Monday noons, in the dining room of the school cafeteria, at which all business of the club is transacted. The ofiicers who served during the first semester included Dolly Schibel, presidentg Eileen Watson, vice president, Ardys Johnson, secretary, and Shirley Morris, treasurer. Second semester officers were Shirley Morris, president, Ellen Pelto, vice president, Maxine Shapiro, secretary, and Ann Richards, treasurer.

Odin Toness On the evening of May first, the June graduating class presented the play, The Passing of the Third Floor Back by Jerome K. Jerome, under the direction of Ralph C. Leyden, to an appreciative audience. The drama is one of the classics of the American stage, and its presentation has set a new standard for Senior Class plays. Odin Toness played the part of the Stranger with a finished air and a depth of understanding seldom equalled by a high school student. The character work of the entire supporting cast made possible the audience's enjoyment of such a production. The local newspaper, in a very complimentary article, stated that the play was done with the polish and finish of professionals. The play itself centers around a hard, cheating group of characters living together in the atmosphere of a mid-Victorian boarding house into which the Stranger enters and rents a room on the third floor back. He unconsciously changes the lives of the paying guests, by refusing to recognize anything but their better selves. ' gg? i. . -33. v x .N X V l 515, xx.

L. G. HURST Athletic Director Mr. Hurst, school athletic director, has during the past few years made his department an important factor in Virginia school life. As a result of his ability, Virginians have witnessed state championship swimming meets and district and regional basketball tournaments. They have also had the privilege of seeing nationally-known athletes perform. Under Mr. Hurst's capable leadership, the athletic department of Virginia has maintained the highest standards of good sportsmanship.

The power of the team was quite vague, as there were very few veterans back, and the ability of the new men had not yet been measured to any extent. Eligibility cut a heavy swath in the ranks of Coach Michel's squad, but mid-September found a hearty appearing bus load of eager gridsters setting out to clash with International Falls. The 25-0 victory for Virginia aroused an immediate interest in the team. The following Saturday, a large crowd turned out only to see Chisholm turn the tables and hand the Blue and White a staggering 25-0 defeat. Grand Rapids was next on the schedule and Captain Pepelnjak, along with the rest of the Queen City team, proved to be one touchdown better as they returned with a 6-0 score in their favor. Matters were evened up again in the following game. Virginia battled the Ely boys on even terms for three quarters and then permitted the Vermilion Rangers to slip over a touch- down to win, 6-0. A game played at Hibbing after school was the next thrill offered to Virginians. Roosevelt High seemed quite empty that Tuesday afternoon as students poured into Hibbing to receive the thrill of their lives. Virginia battered tl'11 Pune-l -I.. I..

Hibbing with a 7 to 0 score and ruined any claim of the Ore Capital for the Range title. Eveleth, co-holders of the Championship with Ely and Mountain Iron, dampened the local spirit in the following melee, however. Seven points against the Hilltoppers was the best Virginia could do while the opponents registered thirteen. The final game appeared to be a toss-up on the success of the season. Virginia had taken three victories and had dropped three games, so the Gilbert clash was to be a decider. The closing minutes of that battle-royal saw Virginia leading 13-7, when out of a clear sky Gilbert pushed over the tying touchdown and missed the kick for an extra point. The season ended with a tie, three wins and three losses. With most of the line and backfield remain- ing practically the same, Virginia looks forward to a successful schedule next season. Experience counts. Football Graduates: George Pepelnjak earned for himself the reputation of being one of the best backs that Virginia has ever p1'oduced. He was an exceptionally clever open-field runner, an accurate passer, and above all, a scrappy, little fighter. Bebz won a coveted honor when he was named captain of the All-Range football team last fall. Reino Palmi, a representative Virginia athlete, held down the center position all year, and as a result he received All-Range recognition. Another one of Virginia's gridiron graduates is Roger Brude. Although not playing in all games, he made a creditable showing whenever he was given the oppor- tunity to play. Arvo Laukka, who played at the end position in most of Virginia's games, gave a good account of himself in every way. In football, Kenneth Staff's reputation came as a result of his excellent field generalship. 1 , ll., lln the Panel--Roger Brude, Arvo Laukka, Kenneth Staff.J - l ' 'rl-tm' Q- X. V 5 'P .

Hockey Team Coach Eide's proteges brought to a close one of the most successful seasons in Virginia's hockey history. Winning all high school games but one, which was a tie, they gained undisputed possession of the Northeastern Minnesota Hockey Championship. When the call for candidates was issued, thirty-eight men tuined out, among them many of last year's veterans. Coach Eide immediately began to whip them into a formidable aggrega- tion for the first game with Hibbing Junior College. He suc- ceeded remarkably well, as is shown by the score, 11-1 in favor of Virginia. The following week, our boys were nosed out by the Eveleth High School tea,m, 3-1. The game was declared a forfeit because of the ineligibility of Eveleth's star player. During the same week the local pucksters redeemed themselves at the expense of Chisholm High School, 10-1. The next week-end, the Virginia team traveled to the Zenith City to take Duluth Central's scalp to the tune of 7-1. After this, came the second Eveleth High School game. Played on poor ice, it developed into one of the most hotly-contested games ever seen on the Range. After two overtime periods, both teams had to be content with a 2-2 tie. Then fol- lowed a string of three victories: Hibbing 1-Virginia 35 Duluth 1-Virginia 55 Chisholm 0-Virginia 4. Eveleth Junior College defeated Virginia 6-2 in the last game, but as it was a college game it did not affect the standing of the Eidemen. lin the l':illelfU, J.

Virginia's big guns on the forward wall were Captain Kenneth Staff, Bob lVlyre, Ilon Roemer, Russ Miller, Roger Brude, Rudolph Spreitzer, Douglas fludmore, and Dominic Nocerini. The defense posts were very ably handled all season by Wilbert LaBeau and Bob Johnson. Jack Johnson, Bill Wisdom, and many others showed much promise. Lawrence Christiansen, city team star, acted as assistant coach. Virginia's hopes for another championship team next year are good, as only three are graduating. They are Captain Kenneth Staff, Rudolph Spreit- zer, and Emmet Toman. Fans showed much interest in the sport this year as was attested by the big crowds at all games. Hockey Graduates: Kenneth Staff, by becoming high-score man for this season and because of his all-around ability, fully justified the faith in him that prompted the hockey team to elect him their captain. During his high school career, he saw four years of service as a member of the puck squad. Rudolph Spreitzer has been a most consistent right-Wing man the past season, and although it was his first year on the team, he played like a veteran. The team has, for the past three years, been bolstered up by the services of Roger Brude. His hockey career did not end with graduation, however, for he played the remainder of the season on the city team. Another of our city team hoc- keyists is Russell Miller. Before entering on this new phase of his hockey career, Russell played for three years on the high school team and proved to be a dependable .man at all times. Emmet Toman, another one of the June class hockey representa- Lr- tives, has been out for hockey for two years. He played in several 1, , . .... . X games this season, and at all times flllcd his position ably.

Under the capable tutelage of Coach Jean Healy, these mermaids took glorious victory during a season which looked dark at the outset. The first meet with Chisholm was won by the local girls by a narrow margin, a fact which indicated that hard work would be necessary in order to retain the coveted state laurels. The rest of the meets were taken by comfortable margins. An unusual number of promising junior high school swimmers supported the Senior veterans. The Virginia team won the state meet with 38 points to 22 for Gilbert, second high. Jessa Pazzelli, state champion diver, was awarded second place in the national A. A. U. junior diving event held in Omaha in April. The Virginia diver closely pressed the champion and was defeated by the narrow margin of one-half point.

The next season holds forth bright prospects to the girl swim- ' mers. Virginia High School can, with good reason, hope that 1932 will add another state championship to the six that have been , gained through eight years competition. .Virginia is proud of these girls as swimmers and as sportswomen. Swimming Graduates: Virginia's comely leader, Lorraine Coleman, lived up to her title of captain of the state champs, by the fine work she accomplished in the free-style dash events. Ellen Pelto, last year's captain, was another one of the big factors in Virginia's splendid success in the w0men's aquatic world. Ellen performed in the breast-stroke event like the veteran she is. June graduation will also take Maxine Shapiro, a depend- able free-styler, from the ranks of the mermaids. Her loss will doubtlessly be greatly felt by Coach Jean Healy next year. Shirley Morris, backstroker, has been one of the team's mainstays during the past few years. Her supremacy in her line was clearly shown at the state meet when she captured first place in both the hundred yard and fifty yard dashes. Margaret Bentley, our diminutive free-styler, also leaves us this June. To look at her, one would believe that she couldn't make much speed, but she paddles right along, as her opponents will readily testify. fln the I':Lm'lw-Maxine Shapiro, Shirley Morris.

With decisive victories over all Range Schools, Virginia made a name for herself in the cinder sport. Early spring saw a relay team entered in the annual Minnesota relays at Minne- apolis. A little inexperience forced them to drop behind Eveleth and take a close second. Eveleth next was host to Range track teams. Here it was shown that Aurora and Virginia were to be the strongest contenders for the district title as the two tied for first place in this contest. Virginia's first home meet drew Ely and Eveleth for triangular competition, which Virginia easily won. The Blue and White took every first with the exception of the 440 and 880 yard runs. Aurora gave Virginia a terrific battle for the district title a week later at the Athletic Field, but the Blue and White rallied to win. The Regional was held at Buhl and drew the strongest field of contenders of the year. Hibbing proved dangerous, but Coach Michels and his squad won by a decided margin. Minneapolis was the scene of the final classic to decide the Minnesota State Championship. Here the Virginia team showed their well-balanced strength. Finishing the season as runners-up to the state title, they set two new state records. Track Graduates: Robert Hall, one of the best hurdlers that Virginia has had in years, made known his track caliber during his last year in high school. Probably his greatest track accom- plishment was that of breaking the state record in the hurdling event at Minneapolis last spring. Bob was also an excellent high jumper. Duane Bryers crowned himself state champ last year when he set a new record in the pole-vaulting event at the state meet. lln the l'zlnL-l-li. ll.

Little time was left for practice, as the first game, scheduled with Aurora, was on December fifth. Coach Michels had but two seasoned men to work with from last year's squad. They were Captain Joe Strle and John Leamon, forward. Competition for all positions was keen. The team was facing a hard schedulehone of the hardest they have had. Thirteen top-notch teams of the Range constituted the schedule. Though losing the greater percentage of the battles, the Rooseveltians fought like veterans and lost by the margin of seldom more than a few points. The scores seemed to be kept low by poor shootingg but the floor work was exceptionally well done. gNext year's team will be conspicuous by the absence of Captain Joe Strle, John Leamon, and Reino Palmi. These men showed up well with the rest of the team in the district tourna- ment by nearly defeating the crack Biwabik squad. The team for the coming year will mostly be made up of seasoned men, which means a successful season. Seasoned Players: Joe Strle, at all times the cal,m and free- thinking captain, fought his hardest in all games whether glorious victory awaited the team or inevitable defeat stared them in the face. In John Leamon, the basketball team realized most of their shooting power. Leamon figured prominently in all Virginia's scoring, and his opponents found him a formidable obstacle to their scoring progress. Our basketball team developed a dependable guard in Reino Palmi this year. Reino did not play in all games, but the team profited by his services whenever he played. fln thx- Panel-Joseph Strlv, cnptaing John Learnml, licino Palmi.? I . . T ..lea.... . .

Boys' Swimming Team Honored this season with an excellent boys' swimming team, Virginia's reputation for having fine, strong tank-squads was upheld and boosted by victories in meets and new records. During the season, Roosevelt.'s men went tKfough their schedule with only one defeat. This was credited agailist them by Chisholm, who tied with Virginia for high honors in duel meets. At the State Swimming Meet, Virginia placed in six events, including third place in the 200-yard relay, fourth in the 220-free style, second and third in the 100-yard back stroke, third in the 100-yard free style, third in the dives, and fourth in the 300-yard medley relay. Hibbing and Virginia tied for third place in the meet, while Eveleth copped second, and Chisholm first. Mr. Boardman's mermen have set two new state relay records this year. They are the 400 yard back stroke wlth the time of five minutes and forty eight seconds and the one mile relay, ln which Vlfglllla clipped twenty seven seconds from Chisholms old record Two members will be lost to Roosevelt High by graduation They are Kirk Batzer and Harold Some Outstanding Performers William Richards has that thing called spunk He is one who can daunt any team with his determination to win Bolstered bv this spirit he was able to fight his way to second place in the state backstroke contest While only a sophomore he received one of his first svnmmlng honors when he was elected captain of the team Diver swimmer, breaststroker and now backstroker Edmond Haapanlemi IS a swimming team in himself He was VlI'glIlla,S high point man thls season and he also carried off several state honors fln the Panel Harry M Boardman coach William Rlnhards captain Ldmond Hacipamemib H-'19-Q?1..t ffl I..-..n:...

Girls, Soccer A ball flying over the turf-girls joyfully giving vent to all their enthusiasm for football in its feminine versionfsoccer. The spirit of good sportsmanship hovering about victory and defeat-the spirit of good fellowship characterized in the play of every girl on the squad-that is soccer. The soccer ball season embraced, within its folds, interclass battles and a color tourney. The interclass events, which took place early in the season, were won by the Seniors under the cap- tainship of Edna O'Donnell and managership of Evelyn Ahlstrand. The Juniors, who shared second honors with the Sophomores, were captained by Frances Anderson and had as their manager, June Morell. The Sophomores selected Ingred Waananen as cap- tain and Olga Papi as manager. Members of the Freshman Team chose Amelia Rosso as captain and Verna Kortes as man- ager. After a color tournament, which was held in addition to the intcrclass tourneys, the coaches, Miss Lomen and Miss Anderson, with the help of the captains and managers, chose an all-school team consisting of: center forward, June Morellg in- side forwards, Ern O'Donnell and Helen Mattillag wings, Evelyn Ahlstrand and Joy Lenont, center half-back, Jane Klabechekg left half-back, Ingrid Waananeng riht half-back, Mabel Ahlstrand, full-backs, Olga Papi and Marguerite Hill. fln the Panelill.

Field Hockey Hockey sticks and pucks came into prominence early in the school year among girl students. The game, naturally, was played without ice, but the general rules were much the same as those of the boys' game played later in the season. The one hundred candidates selected their own class captains and managers. Mem- bers of the Senior team chose Violet Koski as captain and Alice Moilan as team manager. Their undefeated team was awarded the school championship for this season. The sophomores, who rated second in the school, were captained by Catherine Salo and managed by Elsie Lindroos. The Junior team had as its captain Frances Anderson, and its manager Jennie Brunetti. The freshmen found a capable captain in Olga Kauppinen and a manager in Winifred Ring. A committee consisting of Miss Lomen, the coach, and the captains and managers of class teams selected all-school squads at the end of a most successful season. Alice Moilan of the Senior team was picked as the school's best center. The committee chose Violet Koski and Jennie Brunetti as the outstanding candidates for the position of inside-forward. Gilda Ricci and Vera Makiverta were named to hold down the impor- tant wing positions. Margaret Muhar became center half-backg Josephine Jaksha, left half-backg and Irene Salo, right half-back.

Following the few weeks of basketball drill, the interest was kept at a high pitch by a series of color tournaments. Eight color teams were organized. The Green Team, which was composed of mixed high school girls, rose victorious and challenged the Collegians, runners-up in the city league, but were defeated by a narrow margin. From the best players of the color teams, the class teams were selected and were placed under the guidance of the respective managers, namely Novia Peterson, senior, Ruby Carlson, junior A, Mabel McDonough, junior B, Ingrid Waananen, sophomore, and Beatrice Zupetz, freshman. The results of the class tournaments were: sophomores, champions, winning every game, 11A's runners-up, losing only one, and the seniors placing third. The members of the championship team were: Olga Papi, Ragnild Magnusson, Winifred Ring, forwards, Arline Stockey, Josephine Jaksha, Ingrid Waananen, guards, Olga Diuri, Bernice Benkusky, Florence Rajala, substitutes. An all-class team was picked placing the following players: first team: center, Carol Peterson, forward, Selina Carlson, forward, Olga Papi, center guard, Frances Anderson, guard, Jennie Brunetti, guard, Ingrid Waananen. Second team: center, t Novia Peterson, forward, Lillian Davidson, forward, Alice Moilan, center guard, j'j?ii Arline Stockey, guard, Ann Karakas, guard, Ruby Carlson.

It was stated in that issue that Armondo Pappone graduated from high school when he was twenty- one years old. Corrected, the statement should read, Ar- mond Pappone graduated from high school when he was eleven years old. A slight error on our part. OFFERED 850,000 The Museum of Funny Arts has offered Miss Mar- jorie Dewar S50,000 for her latest creation entitled The Lass and Her Beau . Miss Dewar expected a 875,000 bid and states that she will not consider any more offers. She add- ed that she intends to pre- sent the famed painting to Paul Tramz, contemporary artist, who has a collec- tion of masterpieces of such masters as Michael Angelo, Rembrandt, Da- Vinci, and Dewar. JAMIESON IS NAMED U. S. SUPREME JUDGE To Become Successor Of Judge I. Hangem It was learned from Wash- ington D. C. that President Brude has appointed Ross Jamieson to succeed Judge I. Hangem as Supreme Judge of the United States. There was much opposition in the Senate regarding the appointment. Senator Bern- ard Hughes expressed his dis- approval by pointing out that Mr. Jamieson has not had enough experience to hold such an office. Senator Russell Miller said that Mr. Jamieson was only competent enough to hold the position for a while, but if pressed he could even lose it. He also reminded the Senate of the excellent man- ner in which the newly ap- pointed judge played his role back in '31, Ross was judge for his graduating class and locked up Margaret Muhar and the rest of Ziegfield's Follies. nOt PLAYER ANNOUNCES PLANS FOR FUTURE After I retire from foot- ball, I am going into farming, because I get a kick out of handling pigskins and mules, said Bebz Pepelnjak, fullback of the Mythical All-American football squad, as he scrat- ched his back with a thorn- apple branch.

Santa Gets Prize For Hysteric Novel Stockholm 45:37 P. MJ AP. George Santa, poet and novel- ist. was awarded the Nobel prize in literature for the year 1961, it was announced this hour by the Nobel Prize Committee. Santa was awarded the prize on his historical novel, Back in 1931 , which deals with life in the olden days when people went riding in vehicles powered by gasoline motors and when aviation was in its infancy. Santa's novel won over his closest competitor's by only one vote, after much heated altercation on the parts of the committeemen. The novel that caused the dispute was Neck in 1931 by Odin To- ness. This book is of much the same nature as Back in 1931 , but goes into the so- cial life of the people. Unlike Sinclair Lewis, Mr. Santa intends to give the en- tire sum of forty-six thousand street car tokens to charity, presenting one half to the Worst Rational Bank of Buhl. MINNESOTA AVIATOR BEGINS LONG FLIGHT T h e GO-M forty-eight puff rocket left Roosevelt Field on its round-the-world flight fifteen minutes ago.

MEDITORIAL POLITICS- -Hatriotism first. -Creation of more friendship between cops and people. -Creation of more hatred between people and cops. CONSIDER THE POOR COPS- . The drivers of Virginia have been altogether too careless in the last few weeks. Since the first of the year, the number of traffic cops playfully run over by good-natured drivers is almost twice as large as the number for the same period of time last year. This light pleasure not only causes a great deal of inconvenience but adds up to be an exhorbitant expense to the city. Chief of police, Fay Johnson, made the following state- ment: I realize that there is a lot of pleasure to be derived from hitting traffic cops with your autos, but the police department would appreciate it very much if the drivers of this city would try to go a little easier on our cops. Let us try to keep the number of cops hit per day below fifty. AIRPLANES OR COWS? The roads of our city were originally constructed for the purpose of taking care of the airplane traffic here. Today, not 8. plane can make use of the roads because of the great number of cows that continually swarm the highways of our city. How much longer are we going to put up with this? Are we building roads for the submarines of our city or for the cows? Virginia police have put forth every effort to cut down the cow traffic of the towng they are arresting every cow that does not have this year's license plates. This plan, however, is not proving successful. All the prisoners in Virginia jails threaten to leave town if any more cows are arrested. VVe cannot afford to lose our most faithful inhabitants. With such a problem facing us, every person must fight for his rights or get his rites. To barns! To barns! The cows are coming! CANNED PERSEVERIXNCE- In The Waste Basket I have The Whole World Under My Feet is the title of a new song recently pub- lished by Willard Hansen. Announcement has been made of Richard Bailey's lat- est book. It is a volume of love sonnets written during his high school career. Nothing is the name of a new autobiography of Walter Gabrielson. The book has been dedicated to Walter Gabrielson. The most popular song-hit of the week tfor the weak, and by the weak! is Crim- son Marks Among The Blue by Robert McQuade. He also wrote When My Marks Have Turned to Crimson. Edwin Klatt has written a sequel to I Long For You , which he has entitled I'm Too Long For You. John Leamon has just pub- lished a modern novel called, Inferno , He got his inspir- ation from going to high school. Emmet Toman made pub- lic today his intention of ac- cepting an offer made to him by Rube Goldberg. Mr. To- man will be the successor of Boob McNutt, who died from the shock of seeing a picture of his successor face to face.

Our little city feels greatly honored in having such an extinguished character in its midst. The voice of Mr. McFadden is startling the world. It is loud and voluminous and is believed to be as beautiful as the voice of the great Lawrence Hunsinger, another Virginia artist. Mr. Hunsing- er, it will be remembered, held the limelight in the sing- ing world for several years, but while on an automobile trip, he had a blowout and so was forced to retire. Mc- Fadden has been in great de- mand for many years. Those who-are most interested in securing his singing services are the Anti-World-Peace- nites, headed by John Perry, great socialist from the so- cialist hall in his home town. Mr. Perry contends that if he could secure Mr. McFadden's consent to sing for him, he would win his cause in no time. VVorld peace would dis- appear instantly. Mr. McFad- den is considering seriously a contract for furnishing the weird noises in Vitaphone's M. S. Ton-Heim mystery plays. JEDDA GIVES ROUSING SPEECH ON TACK-TICS Virginia, Minn.-Victor Jedda, who is the most sensational orator since the days of Pat- rick Henry, Edmund Burke, and Lawrence Terch, return- ed to his old high school to speak to the students about graduation. A portion of Mr. Jedda's speech is printed here: In conclusion, I should like to say, if time, space, and Mr. Bosshardt will permit, that I think the school board has figured out a very novel way to get rid of seniors. I wish to congratulate them on their tact. Presenting us with di- plomas is such a diplomatic way to get rid of us. In discussing tact, I shall mention a few tact-ics 1' learned while attending this high school. The most pop-u- lar of student tact-ics was the placing of tacks on Mr. McIlvenna's chair. which a- roused a very pointed discus sion on income tax Our grad uating class left the school faculty in good condition and, with the exception of the male teachers the same age as they were when we enter ed kindergarten SOCIETY NOTES Mr. Urho Freeman started on a brief business trip to Owhataburg, Mars. He left on the 3:37:l9.46 o'clock inter- planetary space-hopper. Leroy Guss, scoutmaster of Troop 4897, accompanied sev- eral members of his troop on a hike last Saturday after- noon. Arvo Laukka, forty-eight, and lngred Carlson, forty-six, were issued a marriage lic- ense by the deputy clerk of district court on last Tuesday afternoon. The pair have been engaged for thirty-two years. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Till- man were week-end visitors of their daughter and son-in- law, Mr. and Mrs. John Sigel of Duluth. Mr. Emil Bjorkman has just completed a model airship that he started when he was in high school. Airship ex- perts state that it is a very well-made model considering the very short time in which lt was made. Mrs. Albert Furu, nee Mary Coffey, taking the affirmative side, won a debate against her husband in the court of domestic relations. The ques- tion for debate was: Resolv- ed: that Albert Furu is to beat the carpet on Wednesday April 3, 1961. STORES MERGE Merger of two local stores, Freeman's Grocery and Fal- koski's grocery, was announ- ced today by Urho Freeman and Marion Falkoski, co-pro- -prietors of the Daily Dozen Store Corporation. It was so named because the owners now expect to sell at least one dozen eggs per day. The reason we merged, stated Mr. Freeman to Kirk Batzer, cub reporter of the North , was to run the chain stores out of business. With the two stores working together, we expect an annual turnover of almost twenty dollarsg at that rate, the chain stores will be out of exist- ence within sixty or seventy years. FIRE SALE HUGE SALE Everything Goes At a i Sacrifice PRICES SLASHED COME AND SAVE Milavetz Clothing Store Dan Milavetz and Sons Virginia Minnesota .SIXTY-YEAR-OLD MAN MAKES RECORD SWIM Cape Prince of Wales-George 0. Anderson, a sixty-year old Virginian, surprised the world and himself by enduring the frigid waters of the Bering Strait long enough to swim the complete distance across it. Anderson. who was fishing off a dock on the Cape Prince of Wales, lost his balance and fell into the icy water. He afterwards said that, as long as he was already wet, he thought he might a well swim over to Asia to see how some of the revolutions were c o mi n g along. Bearing straight for the opposite shore, he struck out at a fur- ious pace. Spectators on shore thought that he would freeze to death in a short time, but they soon learned that Anderson had swum in the swimming pool of the Vir- ginia, Minnesota High School, All fear of his freezing promptly vanished from their minds. . Mr. Anderson was the first to succeed in swimming the Bering Strait. It is believed that his triumph will lead others to attempt the same thing. Virginia's swimming pool will probably be crowded to the limit with aspiring swimmers who wish to be- come immune to the freezing tendency of water. If they survive the Virginia water, they will be able to endure the water of the North Pole. MR. EMMONS AWARDED CONTRACT FOR SCHOOL Belgian Congo, Sweden-Ar- thur Emmons was awarded the contract for drawing up the plans of a model school building. Chairman Leo Kos- ki of the Virginia school board informed Mr. Emmons of the deal. The architect's plans for the new school were present- ed to the board and approved by all members. They pro- vide for plenty of class- rooms: one on each floor of the two story building: three large swimming pools, six gymnasiumsg t w 0 social rooms: a large assembly hall: and one room to be used ex- clusively for moving-pic- tures. The halls of the building will be wide enough to ac- commodate cars of all the students, according to a re- quest made by Mary Gelling, the secretary of the board. Miss Grace Darin. another board member objected to hawing so many classrooms in the school but her ob- Jectlon was over-ruled, due to the combined efforts of the three remaining board mem- bers Charles Bolf, Axel Hup- ponen and John Cudmore. .

Gr I 6 .1 A it Ninety Two CHEMIST BLASTS ANCIENT BELIEF Berlin-Glen A. Shields, chief chemist of the U. S. Govern- mental Laboratories, and for- mer head of the Oman Chem- ical Institute of Virginia, Minnesota, today blasted all belief in an ancient and time- honored chemical theory. The old theory was under- stood by only six men in the world: Mr. Onnie Sippola, Mr. Richard Hanson, Mr. Conrad Raps, Mr. Albert Einstein, Mr. E. A. Oman, and Mr. Shields. The ancient belief was that a colloid could not be split. As Mr. Shields is the only one who can understand his theory, it will do no good to explain it here. He formu- lated the new belief after years of careful study. By observing that several things can be split such as wood tby observationj and infinitives Cby exp-erimentj, he came to the conclusion that colloids could also be split. Although no people can fathom the pro- blem, it is generally accepted that a knife for making rest- aurant sandwiches is used. On interviewing Mr. Oman, who was formerly chemistry instructor for the great scientist, it was disclosed that the creator of the new theory' was a prodigal when he was studying chemistry in high school. Mr. Oman stated that he had received several test papers from Shields that had chemical theories on them which no- one except the writer could understand. He also mention- ed the fact that this theory was not the first thing Mr. Shields has exploded. FORMER VIRGINIAN COMMITS SUICIDE Palm City, Little America: Floyd VVest, formerly of Vir- ginia, Minnesota, was found dead in his piano box, in which he had lived ever since the disappearance of a VVall Street fortune. The coroner thinks he died from commit- ting suicide, and the doctors do not think he will survive. Detectives discovered that he had shot himself with a double-barreled shot gun loaded with love notes from Florence Lee, Lillian Wess- man, Irja Tynnila, Ruth Tam- te, and others. He died from mush on the brain. He could not decide which girl he should give up, so he loaded his 410 gauge, double-barreled s h o tg u n, went up to his full length mirror, and standing a short distance from it he should- ered his huge gun and aiming directly at his magnificent reflection he pulled both trig- gers and fell dead at his feet. HALL OF SHAME We are publishing here the last edition to the Hall of Shame. This list has been compiled after a surprising amount of work, which in- cluded an extensive search for likely candidates in such places as the Rogues Gallery, Insane Asylum, and Sing Song. l't is a very great honor to be mentioned in this hall when one considers that such characters as Nero, Shylock, Benedict Arnold, Jesse James, Al Capone. and Ivan. the Ter- ible, are members. Those elected to the Hall are: Irene Salo, for the singular distinction of being punch girl for the Prom. Walter Carlson, for extreme bravery. He got married. Lillian Kinnunen, for saving Lorraine Coleman from drow- ning. John Perry, holder of the world championship record in getting excuses. Ruth Erickson, champion ham-stitcher in the sewing club. Douglas Noyes, big shot of the Rifle club. Matthew Miltich, man of affairs in the Committee of Affairs. Agnes Josephson, establish- er of the world's endurance record in talking. Violet Grund, first person to swim Silver Lake. Clara Paciotti, the only per- son who is able to typewrite as fast as she can type wrong. UNKNOWN RUNS OFF WITH RACE HONORS Date-on-a Beach, Florida- The International Auto Races came to a spectacular close here today when a hitherto unknown person, Woodrow Carlson of Virginia, Minne- sota, ran away with high hon- ors by beating out a field of noted competitors. Arriving at the track, twenty minutes late Kas us- ualj, Woodrow espied Novia Peterson at the far end of the race track. On seeing the several cars racing towards her, the speed devil stepped on the starter of his new 1924 model Overland, and set out at phenomenal speed, hoping to reach her fir t. Mr. Carlson established a new Inter-Planetary record of 523.783 miles an hour. Gar Wood, who came in second in his Platinum Bullet , made his run at a speed of 423.783 miles an hour. John Perry, who registered third at 323.783 miles an hour, claims that he would have won the race if he had not been forc- ed to stop for a blow out Cat 2-43. Mr. Carlson ran off with all honors and Miss Peterson. BROADWAY PLAY SENSATION HERE Russia. Moscow- The Family Stares Up, Broadway's latest p-lay sensation, will make its initial appearance in Moscow on June 7, where it will re- main for a run of six blocks. The play was delayed for some time because Eugene Anderson took the leading role--that of Mrs. Tellar- and forgot to return it. Jes- ter Chensen, whose breath is so strong that it can carry anything but a tune, plays one of the stellar role as Mr. Tellar, and Miss Migne Siller takes the part of his daughter Louise. Miss Helen Irwin takes a butter roll when she assumes the part of the dashing kid sister. Harold Johnson ably portrays Willie the willain, who is the Tellar's son that willn't work. Maymond Ratalot grants the audience a break when he consents to act the part of Charles Grant, the rashing Domeo. Helia Aho consumes the part of Mrs. Grant, Charles Grant's moth- er, while Edward Cron dashes off the noble part of his ig- noble brother, another Grant. The players are all ex- ceptionally good and have al- ways found a warm reception. Reino Laine, manager of the players, got such a warm reception that the tar was bubbling when they put on their play at Virginia. He escaped without feathers. The admission is fifty cents on the main floor, one dollar in the balcony, and five dol- lars in the county jail where one is assured protection from seeing or hearing any of the players. SALO WRITING METHOD TAUGHT IN SCHOOLS Chicago, Ill.--Upon finding the present Palmer Method of writing inferior to the I'r- ma Salo Method, the U, S. In- vestigation Committee, head- ed by Ellen Viita, voted un- animously to accept the new style. When Miss Salo was in- formed of the action of the committee, she very modest- ly stated that she owed it all to her superb writing ability. N0 doubt she was write there. She also told how she had be- come such a writer. She claims that she got her prac- tice when she had to rewrite words that she had misspelled. That was practice enough for me, she said. Miss Salo is now busy at work compiling a book en- titled Salo System of Scrib- bling Self Seized . This book is a system of codes devised to aid the beginner in deci- phering her original method of writing. r V, i Q ' J' mf J I ' 'f- , ' 1 A A iw X H' it s .fx '.
