NINIETEEN TNVENTY-FOUR MIRROR To the Students of Roosevelt High School N the center of the City of London, almost on the 'banks of the river Thames, is situated the famous St. Paul's Cathedralg famous not only because of its marvelous architecture, but also because it contains all that is mortal of such men as Lord Nelson and the Duke of XVellington. ln the center of that church, directly under the magnificent dome, which contains the whispering galleries, is the grave of its builder. Over his grave is a marble slab, bearing this inscription: Here lies Christopher VVren, the builder of this church. If you Wish to see his monument,- look around. How true this is of all the great men and women of the world, the men and women, Whose names will live in history, because of the services they rendered as they journeyed through life. If you wish to see the monuments of Maria Sanford, or Cyrus North- rop, or Vvilliam Folwell, you need but look around. Look around the State of Nlinnesota-America-the world, and you will find men and women, who are better citizens today, because of their C0ntaCtS with these great characters. If you Wish to see the monument of Dr. Charles M. jordan, to whom this annual is dedicated, you need. but look around. Look around the City of hflinneapolis, and observe the great system of public schools that has been built up under his wise guidance and educational leadership.. Look around this great country of ours, and make your comparisons of school systems, and you will be convinced that the boys and girls of Nlinneapolis are today blessed with one of the very best educational sys- tems of the entire country. . The Charles bl. Jordan Junior High School is only a part of the monument erected as a memorial to our esteemed Superintendent Emer- itus. Our whole city system of public schools stands as a silent, but eternal monument to his sane leadership over a quarter of a century. Bien and women in every walk of life, in every climate of the earth, are rejoicing today over the fact that for twenty-five years Dr. Charles M. Jordan was the Superintendent of the Minneapolis Public Schools. Boys and girls of the Roosevelt High School! Let us take advantage of the wonderful educational opportunities afforded us today, so that we may be thoroughly prepared for the great Work of tomorrow. And when the tomorrow comes, let us render such valuable services to our community that when the shadows fall, it may be said of us: lf you wish to see our monument, look around. -PI-IILIP E.

Due to the uncertainty of life, however, we have decided to make this our last will and testament. VVe bequeath certain precious heirlooms to our fellow students, with the request that they treat them with respect and courtesy. To the B Seniors, and to the Juniors we leave Room 104 as a home room, the auditorium seats in the center section known as rows C, D. E, and F, the privilege of having our advisors, ten tons of worries, several law suits, all our old pencils and pens, our drawing material, and lastly, all our dear enemies, acquired. To the Sophomores we give the liberties we had as such. To the Freshmen we leave nothing but luck. As special bequests we leave to hlarjorie Becker, Vera's studiousness, to Gordon, Bill's chance of adding a few inches to his height, to Caston Calerstrom, Hazel's quick wit, to June Peterson, Dagmar's talkativeness, to Richard McMahon, Ed,mund's dramatic ability, to Birdsey, Clarence's place on the annual staff, to Lawrence VValsh, Elmer's ability to argue, to Florence Elker, Ida's quietness. hfloreover, we will to anybody who wishes them, our gum wads, if they can be found, to the discoverer, our physics marks. To lVIr. Greenwood, we leave for liquidation, all our bankruptcy pro- ceedings, our Hnancial embarrassments, and our stocks in the sand banks of Lake Nokomis, for how could we as a class hope to succeed financially, when our advisors-Hayes, Crogan, and Lundgren-stood for H. C. L. fHigh Cost of Livingj? To hfliss Hayes, we leave our best wishes for great success in her dramatic club work in the years to' come. To Miss Crogan, we leave the task of guiding the unstable Juniors in the path that they-should tread.. YVe leave behind us our best wishes to this friend and pal in her stupendous task. To Mr. Lundgren, we leave the responsibility of being as kind and understanding a daddy as he has been to us. To lVIr. Carlson, We bequeath our love and respect, and we trust that the students of Roosevelt High School may for many years be so fortunate as to have him for their guide and counsellor. Lastly, we do bequeath to all other heirs of the student body and to the faculty not herein mentioned, our best interest in their success, re- taining of our store of worldly possessions, merely pleasant memories of happy days spent at Roosevelt. We appoint Mr. T. Bear sole executor of this our last will and testa- ment, and we swear? CDon't let Mr. von Levern hear itj that all pre- vious wills made by us, are dull and void.

It is twenty-nine years tonight since our class graduated from Roosevelt High School. VVe were the first class to graduate and we were a mighty fine group of youngsters too. Since then some of us have traveled all over the world, but here I sit alone in a little cottage with Tabby and Poll, translating Edgar Guest into Greek. Clarence Reamer has made and lost two fortunes since that night. The first he made by managing the Ford plant, and lost by speculating in Wall Street. Concerning the second, nobody knows the details, but it is known that he gave a large sum to an orphan asylum for dogs. Poor Clarence! I saw him yesterday, sweeping Nicollet Avenue, but he has a faithful wife who stays by him through thick and thin so he is happy. Esther takes in washing to support her husband and I forget how many children she has. Little Gordon used to play in our street, but he is grown up now. lNIadame Dagmar Larson is one of our group of whom we are very proud. She has her own music studio and has become quite famous. She has written music that even Paderewski could not play. I hear that the poet Edmund Loughran calls there quite often. In all these years he has never married. It is wonderful to be so devoted to one's art. And they say his neckties are a symphony in color. The evening paper was fairly ablaze tonight with the name of Moria Desmonde. She used to call herself Hazel Nelson, but now she is Mona, the brightest star in America. She is a woman over forty, but she doesn't look a day over sixteen. I wonder how she does it. ' Billy, too, has become quite famous, but in a far more creditable man- ner. VVhen he was young, he was a baseball star, but he gave up every- thing to become a missionary in dark Africa. They say he even teaches the heathen pickaninies a bit of Shakespeare. The last heard of him was that he had made an excellent stew for some of the Cannibals. His work has been an inspiration to us all. A socialist handbill left on my doorstep today had printed on it: Vote for Ida Ferg for governor! I will clean up the state. I wonder which way she means that. They say she is a good housekeeper, so I guess I'll vote for her. Maybe Ida-will be president soon. Yvelll VVelll It's eight o'clock, bed time. Come, Polly. Come, Tabby. We must bank the fire and lock the door. Goodnight, everybody! -VERA DALY June 1924.

I li f 5 THE ROOSEVELT HIGH SCHOOL Senior Class, History HE history of the class of June 1924, the first class to graduate from the Roosevelt High School, is in this wise: The freshman and part of the sophomore year of the mem- bers of our class were spent either at South High or at some high school out of the city. Dagmar Larson, Esther lVIartinson, and Hazel Nelson came from South High. Edmund Loughran came from the Ames High School in Ames, Iowa, Vera Daly, from the high school in Baudette, Nlinnesotag Ida Ferg, from the high school in VVoodville, VVisconsing Clarence Reamer, from the State Normal Industrial School in Ellendale, North Dakotag and William Blomgren from the high school in Rock- ford, Illinois. VVe did not accomplish much during our Junior year. VVe had a Junior Day, but that did not help our class much as it was for all the juniors. Our history really started, therefore, in our Senior year. It was then that We woke up and organized as a class. YVe elected our class advisors, who are lVIiss Crogan, lVIiss Hayes, and lN'lr. Lundgren. These three advisors have done much for us. IVithout them and their interest, I know we would not have succeeded so well. VVe can never repay them for what they have done. ' The officers of our class are as follows: A VERA DALY ------- President CLARENCE REAMER - Vife-Piegidmf HAZEL NELSON ------ Secretary and Treasurer Our class flower, the daisy, signifies simplicityiand an unafiected air. Our class colors are green and gold, symbolical of youth and pure worth. Fortiter et recte' or Honorably and courageously is our class THONG. VVe seem to have accomplished a great deal during the past year. VVe ordered our class rings in December and got them just before New Year's Day. Wie had our pictures taken in lVIarch at the Hubner Studio and all of us were well pleased with them. IVe have had a few social times together. Just before Christmas we had a party at lNIr. Lundgren's home. I feel free to say that there was no one in the crowd who did not enjoy himself. On January 19, We had 'a sleigh-ride party. After two hours of fun in the sleigh, we went to the home of Dagmar Larson and had oyster stew, coffee, and cake. Each member had the privilege of bringing a guest, so at both parties we had a crowd of about thirty. There were thirteen in our class at that time, but later four of our members dropped out, leaving us only nine.

Page Twenty-Om' THE ROOSEVELT HIGH SCHOOL ,What Do They Mean? SENIOR is a name frequently used to describe the self styled aristocracy of a high school. In truth, A Seniors are the partly civilized portion of the student body. At Roosevelt, there are few specimens of this tribe, but these few are very dangerous. The males of this tribe are sometimes called shieks or ucakeeatersf' These may easily be recognized by their well greased hair and their smooth manners. Also, if one dares observe them closely, he will see dark circles around their eyes. This is probably due to the strange cus- tom of sleeping all day and staying out all night. The males are usually very large in stature. Because of this, they are very vain. ' The females are, perhaps, more dangerous than the males as they sometimes drive men to ruin and destruction. The favorite occupation of this tribe is-doing nothing. This they do very well. i Also they are very talented in the gentle art of chewing gum. The teachers do not seem to appreciate art, for, this is one reason why teach- ers leave school. ..

In our freshman year little happened beyond humiliations and most embarrassing moments suffered at the hands of certain Seniors, sundry marks in the same condition as the Ger- man mark, and such like-trivial matters at best, though they loomed overwhelmingly important at the time. Then, too, signs began to dawn of the great intelligence that we have since developed. Yet many were the occasions when we fooled so feelish that we acknowledged ourselves to be the dumb-bells we used to was. Ah, them days is gone forever l That's all ancient history now! Through some kind miracle of Fate, we managed to enter the dignity of being sophomores with few losses from our number. In that eventful second year, we entered our new quarters. -VVe left South High with some regrets, to be sure, yet in a short time we unconditionally surrendered our allegiance to Roosevelt High School. Such young hearts as ours were are easily mended. Now indeed did we begin to prove our mettle. We took our rightful places at the head of school activities and, gave of our best to our school. Even at that early date, our class supplied Roosevelt High with much of its ability and talent in athletics, dramatics, music, and the regular sub- jects of the school curriculum. After our 1923 summer's vacation, we returned to greater triumphs and endeavors. During this, our Junior year, the class has organized and has elected its officers. The honor of being president of the class we have given to Palmer Nelson, that of vice-president to Edward Gervais, that of secretary to Agnes Rasmussen, and that of treasurer to Dorothy Logan. This organization of the class has made possible a Junior sup- per, a costume party, a Junior-Senior prom, and other social events, as Well as increased, endeavors in other lines. In looking over our achievements, we find that the Juniors contributed much to the successful production of such entertainments as Come Out of the Kitchen and The Bo's'n's Bride , that many of our leading athletes are Juniorsg that members of our class are leading many of the the various school activities, that the Zenith Standard staff is made up of Juniors, that, with one exception, the lVlirror staff is also made up of members of our classy that-well, so on indefinitely. At any rate, seek and ye shall find that the Juniors are the real leaders of the school. Our hopes for the future are of as great significance to our school as are our past achievements. We hope to build for this school such tradi- tions and ideals as will make honor, courage, honesty, courtesy, and no- bility in every way the foundation for the future greatness of Roosevelt High School.

This enrollment was increased to 1,519 the second term, 1,662 the third termg 1,816 the fourth term, and 1,951 'the fifth term. The attendance department has furnished the calculations for September of 1924, and according to the predictions of this department, we are advised to be prepared to accommodate 2,287 pupils at that time. These calculations do not take into consideration the natural increase in population as a result of the fact that our school is located in the Ford district. Wlien this fact is considered, we have reason to believe that our enrollment will reach 2,400 in September of 1924, and this enroll- ment will completely fill the present building. Under these circumstances it must be perfectly plain to the most cas- ual observer that a new Junior High School must be built in this commun- ity in the near future. The exact location of this school must be deter- mined by the Board of Education. It may not be out of place for indi- vidual citizens, however, to suggest locations which seem feasible. The above picture represents a day dream which the writer has had regarding the location of this new school. It would not be diilicult to point out an actual saving of at least S150,000.00 to the taxpayers if this day dream were made a reality. -PHILIP E.

Commercial Law will be added next semesterg this, with Community Life Problems, Commer- cial Geography, and History, will give to our school a nearly complete program of social sci- ence studies as provided for Minneapolis High Schools. Economics will probably be offered in the second semester of the coming school year. The increasing attention given in our schools to the social sciences is due to the fact that reasonable people see that only by the develop- ment of well-informed, fair-minded, straight- thinking citizens, can this country escape dis- aster. The problems arising from the rapid changes in our complex and highly specialized industrial society must be met by equally progressive changes in our social and political institutions, made by an intelligent majority of our people. Americans generally have faith in the essen- tial soundness of the decision of a majority of our citizens, but that decision cannot be pro- gressively sound unless it is based upon accurate information rather than one-sided propaganda. There is no guarantee of future success for this Lang WEDISH, Spanish and Latin are now taught in Roosevelt. Next year, we expect to be able to add French to the list. Although at present we have only one class in Swedish, we are planning on having two classes next year. The course is intended pri- marily for students who can speak the language falthough others may take itj and who wish to know something of the literature of their own people. This term we have a splendid Spanish I class. Registration for next term shows that there will he another class also. Aside from the fact that the knowledge of any language has a cul- tural value, Spanish and French have a practi- cal value as well. Both are living languages spoken today by thousands of people. Both also have an important place in the commercial world. Besides these things, the literature of these two languages ranks well with our own.- We are now offering four semesters of Latin. The Latin classes are larger this year than last. republic, unless we can substitute sober judg- ment for blind, unreasoning impulse as the basis for deciding our social and political issues. Through work in the social sciences we must subject our youth to a daily regime of deliber- ation and critical thought, for only those who have been trained in the analysis of facts, the weighing of evidence, the making of decisions, the drawing of inferences and conclusions will resort to intelligence instead of prejudice as their guide for conduct. Above all, Americans must face forward with consummate courage, for, as Lowell said: New times zlemand new measures and new men.

The first year's work is a formal study of Latin grammar. lt is in this year that we lay the foundation for all future Latin study. ln the first semester of the second year, grammar is finished and several short stories are trans- lated. The last semester is spent in translating two books of Caesar's Gallic War and in prose composition work. Latin is the only foreign language offered in the ninth grade. It is not required for admis- sion to the University but is required before a student can enter certain colleges. -GLADYS TRAN'IS. Page Forly-l ifc'1' THIS RoosRvEL'r HIGH SCHOOL History HE state of world affairs at any particu- lar date is the test of the quality of the teaching, particularly of history, done in the years preceding. It follows that the con- dition of world affairs in the future will be determined largely by the quality of the teach- ing in the schools of the world today. Teachers of the social sciences are trying to prepare the world for peace, and have been ex- horted to work for this end. The exhortation is timely, but the efforts of those teachers are in constant danger of being defeated by other agencies that mould the public opinions of na- tions to serve their competing selhsh interests. It is not strange that the signs of the times indicate a breakdown of moral standards. Truth must be honored by the rulers and leaders of mankind. When this has been accomplished, we may reasonably expect a general rising of the standards of moral conduct. Political, social. and economic problems cannot be solved by dis- honesty: the truth will eventually triumph. This triumph is only a question of time and of the amount of strife and hatred that must first defile and afliict the earth. Teachers of the social sciences, including his- tory, can help to reduce these evils to a mini- mum. Theirs is the sacred privilege of helping to bring about a better understanding of the progress is imperative. The true teacher's most problems that cry for solution. In this work sincere ambition is to have an ever-increasing number of former pupils who look back upon the hours spent in the classroom with the feel- ing that there a true teacher made a faithful effort to help them see the world as it is in order that they might help more intelligently to make it better. -R. J. Scuuurz. Mathematics N ninth grade mathematics, we try to give a preliminary, general view of the subject, not elementary algebra alone, as in the past, but with that, a beginning in geometry and trigo- nometry. We try to awaken some sense of the power of mathematics as a science. We try to discover the pupil whose ability fits him for further work in this line and to encourage him to plan advanced work. At the same time, we endeavor to stress the work that will be most useful to the student who drops out of school to go into industry. ' -M. EDWARDS. In the second year of mathematics some time is given to practical application of the subject, in which students with simple measuring instru- ments do field work, such as finding distance across fields, determining the height of build- ings, or drawing to scale the floor plan of a building. Then, there is the relation of the work in geometry to that in mechanical drawing as well as in the construction of all types of artistic geometric designs, which plays so great a part in the industrial and architectural design of the world. Geometry is a great game-the playing of which can always be won, but not won too easily. ' -VERA CURTIS. For those who are interested in mathematics or who plan to take engineering or technical courses, two courses in Higher Iliathematics are offered. Last semester Higher Algebra and this semester Solid Geometry have caused the juniors and Seniors more or less worry. The rainbow spectrum seen through a glass prism seems more interesting to some th an the geo- metric properties of the same prism. -Mas. NAGEL. Art HE two foremost aims of the art depart- ment are to develop creative art in the students themselves and to further the appreciation of art in both the school and the community. PHJI' Everything in the world either posses art or has a need for art. In giving a pupil the basic principles of all art as expressed in color, form, and line, we are fitting him to better take his place in life as an educated and cultured orlj'-Six NlNETEEN TXVEN TY-FOUR MIRROR citizen. The appreciation of beauty can be and is taught definitely as the appreciation of literature and music. The satisfaction of hav- ing created any beautiful and worthwhile thing makes life fuller and richer than it might other- wise have been. . The courses offered to the pupils in the school endeavor to bring out all the native talent in- herent in the individual. By co-operating with other departments and activities in the school, the art department is able to fill a most im- Industrial HE Industrial Department at the Roose- velt High School has much in store for the boy who is desirous of obtaining knowledge in the industrial field. The purpose of the department is to form a foundation for general industrial work. In or- der to receive the greatest benefits, the student should build on this foundation his specialized knowledge either through higher education or through association in practice. He will there- by fit himself as a leader and advisor of indus- trial work. A student in the industrial course receives a splendid course in English, llflathematics, and Community Life Problems. This fits him to compete with graduates of other courses in both written and oral work. It is not the purpose of this course to give the student only one industrial subject or to cause him to specialize before having acquired a gen- Idome E HE fundamental objectives of Home Eco- nomics work in the Junior and Senior High School are similar to those which apply to general education. ' The chief aim of the Home Economics De- partment is to ht the girl for her position in the social and business world, as well as for her place in the home. These results are obtained thru teaching the construction and hygiene of clothing and the buying and prepara- tion of foods, which tend to develop the body to the highest physical 'and mental degree. ln the seventh grade, the girls develop skill in the basic processes of sewing. In the eighth grade they develop greater skill, accuracy and speed. They- begin the study of textiles and thus learn which materials are appropriate for simple garment making. portant place in the extra curricular work. For instance, the art department can and does pre- pare drawings for the annual, make posters for school events, and arrange settings for plays and entertainments. The practical value of art as well as its in- spiring beauty are sufficient evidence of the im- portance of art in the school curriculum and in every day life and occurences., -Miss DUSTIN. Department eral knowledge of all possible industrial pro- cesses, but rather to acquire this general knowl- edge which not only forms a basis for any en- gineering college entrance but also gives a fair understanding of all processes. This helps to both amplify and expedite the work when a subject is chosen for speciali'ation. Our goal in this department is leadership, which is based upon broad and general knowledge. The order in which the various subjects are taken is arranged in a natural sequence as far as possible. This, however, in some special cases is left to the choice of the student. It is not our purpose to train artisans for the dif- ferent trades, although those who so desire can be accommodated by special courses. We en- deavor to discourage early specializing, as it detracts from the general knowledge required in order to become a master or overseer of in- dustrial work. -ROY H. SPRAGUE. conomics The work in Cooking helps to fit the girl for her place as a helper in the home, by teaching her how to buy foods and how to prepare sim- ple dishes, thus leading up to the preparation of well planned and nutritious meals for the fam- ily. - The Domestic Art Course in the Senior High School includes Sewing, Millinery, Related Art and Textiles. The work in Sewing and Mill- inery aims-to give the girl ability to make all her own clothing and hats. Related Art teaches good taste in the selection of clothing and household furnishings. The study of Textiles teaches how to judge the quality of materials and how to buy clothing economically. The Foods Course has been arranged to give the girls who take only one year more work in the planning and preparation of meals, than was Paw Foru'-Sefven THE ROOSEVELT HIGH SCHOOL formerly offered. As a wise expenditure of one's income is recognized as being very essen- tial, the girls are required to keep personal ac- counts, thus forming habits, which if continued will be beneficial when the girls become wage- earners. j In the Senior High, the Home Economics work forms a major portion of the Industrial Arts Course for girls. Domestic Art or Do- mestic Science may be taken as one of the elec- tive subjects in the Academic Course. They are also offered as electives in the Commercial Course after the Freshman year. -FLORENCE A. KEELER. Commercial RACTICAL courses in education have been introduced into our high schools during the last twenty years. A pupil acquires knowl- edge in these courses which directly serves him in his every day life. Commercial and indus- trial courses have had something to do with the wonderful growth of our high schools. Recent surveys show that about 35 per cent of the pupils enrolled in high schools in the United States are in the commercial classes. There is a great demand for properly trained commercial graduates. The training received in the high school may be used as a stepping stone to higher positions in secretarial work or in accounting. A commercial course need not be considered strictly vocational. There is no vocation which does not require'some knowledge of' business. Should not subjects like bookkeeping, shorthand, and typewriting be taught to all pupils? Commercial subjects carry cultural values and training values other than vocational. A knowledge of bookeeping is necessary to one en- gaged in any business. All investment literature is .filled with balance sheets and profit and loss statements. How'can anyone invest intelligently without a knowledge of financial statements? English D HE key-note of the year, Encourage read- ing and direct reading, sounded at the first meeting of the department in Septem- ber pointed to the need of an early adjustment. Since the library was new and limited in its material, and the hour period gave but little time to the student for reading outside of class, the plan was devised whereby the school library was thrown open to entire classes for project work and the reading done under supervision of the teacher. lklaterial which the school library did not possess was supplemented by the Public Library. But even this did not prove entirely satisfac- tory. The need was felt of taking the reading matter to the class room where the students Bookkeeping teaches pupils to be systematic and accurate. No high school subject gives better mental discipline and training in reasoning. Shorthand is an excellent instrument for training in English. It aids in teaching clear enunciation and is a great help in building up a vocabulary. Typewriting develops mental alert- ness as well as absolute concentration. Short- hand and typewriting are very essential to pupils who expect to take a college course. The ability to take lectures in shorthand and to write theses, themes, etc., on the typewriter is a de- cided advantage to any student. Penmanship, Commercial Law, and Commer- cial Arithmetic are very valuable in every day life. XVhat subjects are used more? Two of the last group belong to the original three R's. Contrary to popular opinion, they are taught better today than at any other period. There is a great demand for boys and girls who can handle figures accurately and rapidly and write a good business hand. The Commercial Department of the Roose- velt High School hopes to be of service to the boys and girls of this district. We can train you for business or you can use the training in every day life. -P. L. GREENWOOD. epartment might ask questions and criticize freely. The purchase of sets of books for English classes made this possible. Here under the stimulus of class discussion, the interest of the students, even those most loath to- read, was aroused. They learned that good English may be' lively and meaningful. A keener sense of observation, a freer expression, and a sense of discrimina- tion slowly developed. Thus it is that students are already seeking for better magazines and for better books, for more thoughtful ideas and worthy interests, and it is to be hoped that school English may some- time become Home English and the language of the class-room become the language of the play-ground. -A. HENRY'. Page Forty-Eight NINIQTISEN TWENTY-FOUR MIRROR Science EGINNING the study of a science is sim- ilar to beginning the study of a foreign language. We cannot expect to know much the first year, but it is possible for every student to grasp some of the fundamental laws and their applications in every life. Accordingly, General Science, which is an introduction to all science is offered first. The aim of this course is to afford to the student an explanation of the more familiar happenings in Nature, both nat- ural and physical, which hitherto have been un- known or but partly understood. Botany and Biology follow because they are susceptible to a logical arrangement, and are easily linked with facts of knowledge to the student. They deal with organic life, and mark the first at- tempt at specializing. Physics is offered in the Junior year and Chemistry in the Senior. These are classed as physical sciences and with inanimate matter. Just as dawn follows darkness, so these four years of science will gradually unfold themselves to the student. He will realize that he cannot avoid science, even if he tries, that his own body, and in fact all matter yields to scientific laws. He will begin to see light, and find that science has not only a vast but also a most fascinating field. Chemistry was added to the list of sciences this year. The laboratory arrangement of this department is one of the latest in the North- west. lt consists of fifteen laboratory desks, which accommodate thirty. students at one time. These have sufficient shelf and drawer space to enable each student to do individual work. Each desk is connected to a fan, so that all the fumes and gases, are collected. This minimizes the odors and materially improves the conditions under which the student works. Music HE lVIusic Department has endeavored to keep pace with the general rapid progress of the school. The glee clubs and the or- chestra have reached a considerably higher standard than they did last year. They have occasionally furnished music for auditorium programs, but their main efforts have been di- rected toward the cantatas and the opera. The cantatas, which were given late in the fall, were Eric the Red, sung by a large chorus picked from the chorus classes, and Building of the Ship sung by the glee clubs and accompanied by the orchestra. The opera has an article of its own elsewhere in this book. Late in the year, a second orchestra was or- ganized under the direction of Miss Melba Gar- wick. This orchestra is composed mostly of seventh and eighth grade students. One notable advance this year is in the or- ganization and growth of the band. Last year the school bought a set of band instruments and loaned them to students about the middle of the year. The director organized a large beginners' class, which was continued until the close of school. Last September a band was organized, which has furnished music for bas- ketball and baseball games, played at occasional auditorium programs, entertained the Parents and Teachers' Associations, and performed at the dedication of the bungalow fire barn on Cedar Avenue and at the Health Exposition at the Kenwood Armory. Another noteworthy feature of the Music Department is the splendid work done by the harmony class under lVIr. Bergquist. In March an original composition contest was held in the auditorium. Evelyn Lind won first place with her Gypsy Life g Carl Gonnella took second with his Fantasie for the violin, and Bernice Peterson received honorable mention for her de- scriptive piece, By the lilillf' The first two were chosen to represent Roosevelt at the final contest between all the high schools of lVIin- neapolis. The Junior High School music department has been busy also. The Boys' Glee Club has sung twice at the Simmons School and once at the Jackson School for the Americanization classes. The Girls' Glee Club sang the contata, The Legend of Bregenzf' at the Roosevelt liflay Festival, and for the Business Women's Club of Southeast liflinneapolis. We are planning for still larger growth and accomplishment next year. -L. G. GRANT. Patil' Faris'-Niue THE ROOSEVELT HIGH SCHOOL Physical HYSICAL training means the exercise and training of the motor powers of the body, carried on primarily' for the sake of health, discipline, or pleasure. The term implies some- thing systematic and regular, done intelligently according to hygienic principles. The various forms of physical training have been practiced for centuries and have developed in numerous ways. Physical training methods have developed in the last century into a scientific state, which is known as physical education. This term in- cludes a great many more branches than does the term physical training. Today every mod- ern system maintains a Department of Physical Education, which in turn aims to promote and maintain the health of every student coming under its supervision. Our Department of Physical Education is small as compared with others of this city, yet we have developed methods much different from those of any other school. Our aim is to have every pupil take part in some form of physical exercise. The regular physical training classes do not include every one who should be taking part in some form of physical activity. The orthopedic gymnastics class is maintained for those who are not physically fit to take part in Auditorium HE school has grown so rapidly that it was found impractical to have the Junior high school and the Senior high school together in Auditorium periods this year. Arrangements were made to have the Junior high school Auditorium periods one week and the Senior high school, the next week. It also seemed advisable to have separate periods from the standpoint of providing programs which would be better suited to the students of dif- ferent ages. The aims, as last year, have been: to unify the whole group and to create school spiritg to set standards which will develop a polite, appreciative, and discriminating audience, to bring to the student himself an ease in appear- ance and freedom in expression by appearing before the student bodyg to form a consciousness of responsibility and good citizenship. In addi- tion to this we have made an effort this year to bind the home and the school together by observing Parents' Day. We attempted to bring ideas to the young people which would make them more thoughtful and sympathetic, and meet Page Training the regular physical education program, and for all of those taking part in any branch of athletics. Since it is our aim to get every pupil into some form of physical work, we hope that competitive sports will attract the major- ity. The inter-school competition furnished by this city makes it possible for every red-blooded boy or girl to take part in some sport. Some feel that they do not possess physical strength to qualify them for a place on one of the teams of the major sports, and for those competition in Golf, and Tennis is supported so that individuals may attain some degree of skill that they can use in after life. A great many are induced to learn some sport by taking part in the Intra-mural games of our school. It is now possible for every one wishing to take an active part in athletics to do so without leaving our school grounds. Our athletic facilities have been ham- pered by lack of space, equipment, and funds. However, our teams have been outfited and made a satisfactory showing in every sport this year. The athletic field has been improved to a large extent, and we can only say Give us time and we will prove that we too can do great things. -WM. L. JOHNSON. ,Programs which would lead them to appreciate the sig- nificance and sweetness of home relationships, and of parents. ' It was planned this year to have more of the programs taken over by different groups and different societies of the school instead of hav- ing all outside talent. The Hi-Y Club, the Zenith Society, the Junior Class, the Dramatic Club, and the Public Speaking classes of the High School, the Harmony Classes, and boys from the Physical Education department gave programs to the school. These have been of a very high standard throughout. Much credit is due the students and the advisors of all these clubs and societies, for the very excellent programs which they have given. The Girl Reserves, and the Junior High Boys and Girls Glee Club, furnished programs for the Junior high school. The Glee Clubs sang the beautiful cantata, Legend of Bregenz, for one of the Nlay Festival Week programs. The lvlay Day program, given to both sec- tions of the school, by the girls from both the junior and the Senior high school gymnasium Fifty NINETEEN TXVENTY-FOUR MIRROR classes, was one of the most artistic and impres- sive programs ever presented at the school.

Representative W. I. Nolan, Congressman Newton, Dr. Dewey, pastor of Plymouth Con- gregational Church, and hir. Koehler of the Y. NI. C. A., are among the speakers to whom the school is greatly indebted. Mr. Goodwin, and members of the faculty from his School of Music, Mr. Tjonsland of our own district, and various faculty members of the lVIcPhail School of Music are some of the artists of the city who have so generously contributed to the suc- cess of the Auditorium periods.

Our aim therefore, is to dis- cover any physical defects in ourstudents and secure their correction as early as possible, thus giving the handicapped student an equal chance with his more fortunate companions. But efficient health supervision is reflected not in the number of defects corrected or the num- ber of physical examinations made. lf the health work of the student has been adequate previously and he comes to school in good phy- sical condition, our efforts must be directed toward seeing that neither the school nor the home life at this period interferes with his fu- ture development and that the conditions under which he lives, whether in school or at home discover Sight OOSEVELT High School has the only Junior High Sight-saving class in Min- neapolis.

Retardation and failure to pass examinations for physical reasons are an indictment of the health work so far performed, but the real objects is not to achieve this result.-It is to safeguard the stu- dent, to keep him in good health and to teach him to possess and practice those measures which will assure good health not only to the student but to the whole community in which he lives. The need of all health work lies then, in the prevention of disease during infancy and child- hood in the building up of a robust, well devel- oped, physically and mentally strong boy or girl, one who is capable not only of withstanding the hazards of disease during child life, but who understands the rules of health and so applies them that soundness of body and freedom from disease is assured during all of adult life. This is the goal and ultimate object to be at- tained for our children. -IRMA B. SMITH. Saving for the totally blind.

The classes have two purposes: first, to enable the child of defective vision to obtain the regular public school instruction with a minimum of eye strain, and second, to teach the individual how best to conserve his vision, tak- ing into account his own peculiar eye defect. An effort is made to avoid segregating these children and to keep the conditions surrounding them as normal as possible. A room with a teacher in charge is set aside for the use of the sight-saving class. lliembers of the class make this a sort of home-room where most of the written work and special preparations are done. All oral recitations are made in the regular classroom and promotions are made upon the recommendations of the reg- ular teachers. The special teacher acts as a private tutor. An effort is made to limit the enrollment in these classes to ten to enable the Scholarship T is difficult to say anything of the work of the Scholarship Committee and have it read by the students because with many of them the Committee is not popular. Few realize the scope of the work, which is practically un- limited, as any student whose work is below the standard set by the school may be questioned. Comparatively few pupils appear on the schol- arship lists. Of the 1,050 high school pupils, fifty-five appeared on the January list and of that number only eight reappeared on the list in lVIarch. One boy who failed in four subjects was a passing student by the time the next list was issued. His improvement was due to the co-operation of the home and the Committee and, of greater importance, the efforts of the boy himself. The students generally respond to the interest the Committee takes in them and make an attempt to better their work. ' The reason for the failure of many pupils is easily removed when proper understanding be- tween pupil and teacher is secured. This is the Libr EGINNINGS are always slow, and this is especially true in the building up of a book collection. A good general reference col- lection has been our first consideration. With the increase in appropriations made this year, we now have some thirty-five hundred books. Teachers and students have been generous in teacher to give the necessary individual work. Special consideration is given to the selection of the room and of adequate equipment. A room with a northeast exposure has been found most desirable. The walls and furnishings should have a dull finish. The essential equip- ment includes heavy soft pencils, unglazed paper, typewriters, large type books, maps with clearly defined outlines, movable desks, and materials for various kinds of handwork. Some vocational guidance is provided for these students. Courses such as Typewriting, Home Economics, and Agriculture are available for those who will not go beyond the high school. During the first semester, the class maintained a creditable average of scholarship with a record of no failures. This was made possible through the interest and co-operation of the entire fac- ulty. -HAZEL V. BIRKENMEYER. Committee largest and most interesting phase of the work as each is an individual case and must be treated accordingly. Some of the problems, we find, require medical treatment. For instance, the pupil may have defective hearing or eyesight and when this is corrected, he may find that he is able to pass and often to get better grades than formerly. Adverse home conditions also cause failures. This is a hard problem to face, how- ever, in most cases it can be remedied, and gen- erally there is a spirit of co-operation between the home and the Committee, for the parents are eager to have their children pass in all of their work. The ultimate aim in the work is to reduce the number of failures and to have the students look to the Committee for help in their special problems and, instead of regarding the Commit- tee with dread, to think of them as always ready to help and to work together for greater good with a larger spirit of co-operation. -R.

Dependability and willingness to serve have been characteristic of the boys and girls who have assisted in the library. Our plans for the future? We could picture Page Fifzy- Teva NINETEIEN TVVENT.Y-FOUR MIRROR as our chief hope pictures decorating our walls, a cork carpet softening the tread of many feet, consultation rooms where classes meet undis- turbed and undisturbing for supervised study, collections of clippings, slides and pictures, and stacks filled with the most desirable books. These are indeed a part of our vision. This vision bids fair to become an actuality very soon with the present splendid co-operation of our principal and superintendent. We have a broader vision-one which will bring to the boy and girl both the bread and the lilies of life. School gives only the begin- ning of educationg the library shows there is no Off HE personnel of the Roosevelt office in- cludes the principal, assistant principal, home visiting teacher, school nurse and three clerks. With the co-operation of pupils and teachers, these people are striving to make the work of Roosevelt High School a success. It may seem to some people that the office is an uninteresting place, but one only needs to observe the work for a short time to learn that it never lacks variety. One of the most impor- tant phases of the work of a school office is the keeping of records and the making of reports Lunch HE very rapid growth of our school is in- dicated in the lunch room by the large in- crease in the number being served. At the opening of school, less than two years ago, from five to seven hundred students and teachers passed through the lines, while at the present time from thirteen to fifteen hundred are served daily. While from eight to ten minutes were consumed in serving the smaller number, the present number are being taken care of in about the same length of time, showing how rapidly those not accustomed to lunch room buying have learned to do so. The tragedies of spilled trays and broken dishes have to a large extent disappeared. Even our younger students have learned to buy a well balanced luncheon at a small cost, the average being about nine cents. There are decided preferences in foods served. Mashed potatoes and gravy head the list of vegetables, though many have learned how good end. How necessary is it not then that the stu- dent should learn to use the library! When he has learned the value of an index, the use of the card catalog, the arrangement of the books on the shelves, the mysteries of Who's Who, 'fReaders Guide, Poole's Index, and other reference books, he has the one thing needful to make his own university. The day is not far distant when no student will graduate from high school who has not had a definite course in the so-called library tools. lklay that day for Roosevelt High School come soon! -AUGUSTA BJELDANES. 1 C C to the Attendance Department and to the State. Over sixty printed forms are necessary in order to keep these records, and in addition to this, almost fifty forms are mimeographed for use in our building alone. The people in the office are interrupted con- stantly, not only by telephone calls, but by pupils, teachers and visitors coming to the counter. These interruptions make it very difficult to accomplish the work of the office with as few delays and mistakes as possible. -Mas. G. W. Goooiucn. Room other vegetables really are. Hamburger leads in meat popularity, with veal and dressing a close second. Salads have gained rapidly in pop- ularity, fruit and bananas being general favor- ites. Of the desserts butter-scotch pie heads the list. Ice cream sandwiches, however, never lose their popularity with many. From four hundred to four hundred eighty bottles of milk are con- sumed daily besides the hot cocoa. The object of the lunch room is to serve well-balanced, wholesome, and nourishing food at the least cost in the shortest possible time. To accomplish this requires the services of eight full-time workers besides the eighteen students who assist during the lunch hour. It is our aim to have the Roosevelt High School lunch room rank first in the city. This can be accomplished by the co-operation of every student in the school. -LYDIA E. SCI-IAEFER.

Pagn' Si.w.'!,1'-SM.'rI1 THE ROOSEVELT HIGH SCHOOL Savings Society HE purpose of the Savings Society is to ,encourage every student and faculty member to form the habit of thrift, rather than to have a few deposit large amounts. A penny seems small when we deposit it, but we will be surprised to see the amount it will be after a few years of saving. p Our new school savings system, handled by the Educational Thrift Service, has proved to be a success. On November lst, 1923, our school was chosen as a model school in banking. The number of depositors at that time was 946. In March our school won the honor of being the only high school in Minneapolis having 100 per cent of its student body as depositors. A It is interesting to know that from September to January the school deposited s2,213.14. Other statistics would also show the encouraging state of banking in the school. We sincerely hope that the Roosevelt High School will retain its excellent record. UR Hops!! HE R Hops are under the control of a faculty committee con- sisting of lVIiss Crogan, chairman, Mrs. Nagel, Mr. Dennis, Miss Curtis, and Miss Nelson, and of a student committee consisting of Ruby Larson, Raymond Bergeson, and William Brennan. The purpose of the dances is to create a spirit of fellowship and to promote acquaintances among the students. Several R Hops have been given. The last two were made par- ticularly festive by programs, decorations, and special features. The committees feel well rewarded for the work expended because of the Sleasure which has been manifested by all those who have attended the ances.

Ml M13 -ji Ili Athletics THLETICS are rather hard to build up in a new school to the same plane that older established schools have reached. This is due to the inexperience of those competing, the problem of buying equipment, and a suitable athletic field. The first disadvantage can be overcome in a season or two, and the second also by proper financ- ingg but the third is a very serious handicap. Through the untiring efforts of our Principal, Mr. Carlson, our athletic field is not one of future consideration, but is now ready for use, not only for practice games, but for regularly scheduled games. Never before in Minneapolis has a school been able, in two years, to finance an athletic field. Central High School, which has been in its pres- ent location twelve years, has an athletic field still in the making. West High School, after ten years' of work, is able only this spring' to use its athletic held for anything but practice. Last year at this time there were over three hundred trees covering the present field. All of these had to be removed, not cut down, but grubbed out. Mr. Carlson removed the first tree and supervised the additional work, including the grading, not to mention the difficulty he had to get the Street Commissioner to close 4-lst Street and 29th Avenue. Now for the field itself. We will have a football field, a baseball diamond, a one- fifth mile running track as well as jumping and vaulting pits. We also have an additional baseball diamond where our intra-mural teams had a game every day this spring, and did not interfere with the practicing of the school team. The only thing lacking is a wall surrounding the field, and our Principal has already laid plans for it. At a faculty meeting held in December, Mr. Carlson presented the idea of a subscription, to which the faculty responded one hundred per cent. Mr. Carl- son has also interested the Parent-Teachers Association in this idea, and we hope by the time this article is read, that enough subscriptions will have been received to erect this wall. This is not all, for the Senior Class, the first to graduate from our fine, new building, is giving as a memorial an entrance for our athletic field. This entrance, of which we are showing a picture on this page, will be placed on 28th Avenue and it will conform with the beautiful lines of the building in every way. This last is in the nature of a prediction: by the time the football season opens next fall, we will have a wall surrounding our field that as well as being servicable, will be of beautyg one for everyone in the vicinity to point to with pride. -J. C. HENDERSON. Page Se'vrnI.v-Seven A THE ROOSEVELT HIGH SCHOOL Revue of Athletic Season Football '2 3 N many respects the 1923 football season was a great success. Being our first year in the run for the City Championship, we could not be expected to make a very big showing against the other schools. From the showings of this year's team, we expect to have a fast and smooth running team that will be able to hold its own with all 'other contestants next year. At the first call for volunteers about thirty men appeared but these dwindled down to about twenty men before the season was over. The first two weeks were spent in teaching the raw recruits the principles of the game and how to handle the ball. A few days before the first game the team elected as captain, Gordon Gordy Stansberry. who played at a half-back position. We played our first game with East on their field. The game was not decided by any means until the end of the third quarter, when East scored their only touchdown. Through an in- jury to our sturdy captain, we were greatly handicapped, but held East to the final score of 6 to 0. A week later we met South on their field. The team was a good deal stronger and dis- played better teamwork than it did against East. Both teams played to their utmost and the game was undecided until the last minute. ,South carried the ball down and across by long passes and scored the only touchdown. Throughout the football season the team played hard and showed its fighting qualities. In the Central game Glen Nelson was in- jured severely and was a great loss to the team. By this year's showing, great things can be expected of the Teddies next year and they will not be entirely left out of the race. Baseball '23 ASEHALL started from the very beginning and early in the season the prospects for a team were very discouraging, but in spite of all the handicaps that had to be overcome. Coach Henderson developed a team that made a fine showing for the initial year. Fundamen- tals and practically every step of baseball had to be taught in the short season. Financial sit- uations was a very serious handicap, however, this was somewhat taken care of, and initial equipment was purchased. A place to practice was another one of the difficulties to be en- countered, and it was often necessary to travel some distance for an evening's practice on a diamond. Ondich and Nee were the hurlers for the Teddy's last year, and took charge of the mound in fine shape. Ondich captained the team and was ably supported by Kolesar, Tut- tle, Stansberry, and every other member of the team. It is impossible in this limited space to give due credit to every member of the team, or to every candidate that helped to make the first baseball team of the Roosevelt High School. However, we do Wish to express our apprecia- tion of the untiring efforts put forth to make baseball a success, and we know that it will more than suceed hereafter. Baseball ,24 LTHOUGH the baseball season is in the initial stages at the time of this writing, it is possible to make a report of the prog- ress of the team to date, with the possible pros- pects of their future. The entire season so far has been hampered by the unfavorable weather conditions. However, this has not stopped the Teddys from practicing every day. Coach Hen- derson has had the men out for practice every day, rain or shine. Early in the season they went thru the workouts in the gymnasium, and as soon as possible they donned their outdoor togs and took to the ground for hitting, fielding, and infield practice. At the first call for men, a very few prospects answered, but after they had been informed that baseball practice was really starting, the candi- dates came forth and answered the call in a very good way. Only a few Veteran men were back from last year, which will form the nucleus of the team this year. Tuttle, who is holding down the third sack in fine shape, was elected captain of the team, and with the able assistance of Kolesar on second, Sayther at short-stop, lvlc- Leod and Bredin on first, Nelson in the field, and the batteries including Ondich, Nee, Walsh, Saugstad for pitchers, and Reamer and Pear- son as catchers, the team is developing in fine shape. Many other men deserve a great deal of credit, but as the space is limited, it will be impossible to give them all honorable mention at this time. Look forward to the lldirror of next year for a full detailed report. Pagr' Sl'-'Lwnly-Eight Q A J I NINETEEN TYVEN TY-FOUR MIVRROR Uutdoor Track '24 T is impossible at this time to give an accur- ate report of the Track team for this spring, however, it is possible to sum up the pros- pects of the season. The number of men tak- ing part in track work this spring has been com- paratively small, although we are very thankful for the ambitious men that we have. At the beginning of the season Coach Johnson had a fine bunch of prospects to work with, but sev- eral menaces have crept in which have made conditions somewhat unfavorable at this time. A great many of the candidates were compelled to stop practice to take up work after school, and this of course, has been a very serious handi- cap to the whole team. With the number of events that are listed on the outdoor schedule a great many men are required to make a well balanced team. It is notadvisable, nor is it permissable to enter one man in too many track and field events. This ruling naturally calls for more men to make a successful track team possible. It was hoped that all men who showed up well in the indoor season would re- main on the team for the outdoor schedule, but conditions found it impossible to have them all stay out. . At this time, the Hamline Relay Race Car- nival is being looked forward to. Coach John- son is working very diligently with the Two- llflile Relay Team, whipping them into condition to take part in the events. L. Anderson, A. Anderson and S. Brackett, all of whom are men who have trained all season, and G. Brown that reported for track late in the Indoor sea- son compose the Two-lVIile Relay Team, and they are expected to win honors at the Hamline Relays. Edridge, Mcllflahon, and Sodd are working over the hurdles, while Meade, and Forslund are working on the dashes. Nielson is trying out for the weights and is showing up very well. There are several meets to be held this spring. One at Carleton College, which is to be a State meet, and Twin City meets at the University of lliinnesota. It is hoped that more men will take up track work next year. Let's go men! And put Roosevelt on the map in track athletics. Indoor Track '23 ' HE indoor track season was undoubtedly unknown to a great many of the students of the Roosevelt High School, however, to those that were interested in track work will find that some accomplishments came forth this season. Track athletics have never attracted the crowds that have other sports, such as foot- ball, basketball, and baseball. There are track meets during the spring season that attract the attention of a great many people, but the win- ter season is always more or less quiet. Training for Indoor Track began a short time after football was over. The boys con- tinued their work all through the winter in a very earnest way. All members of the squad need a great deal of credit, as they worked hard with what they had to work with. The lower front hall was used as a running track: this was very unsatisfactory in a way, as it pro- duced a few injuries and was very slippery. llflcllflahon was the only veteran left from last year, and during the season was elected as Cap- tain of the team. He placed in every meet that was held and made a total of 'ZOM points dur- ing the entire season. Snyder came thru the season with several first places in the High Jump, and totaled 19 points. The highest in- dividual point winner of the season was Galla- gher, who made a total of 22 points. Galla- gher's best meet was at South, where he took first place in both the high and low hurdles. Brackett ran the best race of the season, when in a very sensational battle, he defeated Fisher of South. Two other men earned points enough for a letter: namely, lVIcLeod and Doerschug. After basketball season was over, McLeod turned his attention toward track and found that his best race was the 220 yds. and high jump. F. Doerschug deserves a great deal of credit for his work and accomplishments this year. With the odds against him, he trained and worked hard enough to earn an award of the school. He topped off his points in the South meet when he placed first in the Broad Jump, and tied for second in the Low Hurdles. Three meets were held: namely, one with Edison, North and South. The team was de- feated by both Edison and North, but defeated South in the last meet of the season by a score of 55-40. Gymnastic Team ,23 HE gymnastic team is a sport that sprung into prominence this year in the Roosevelt High School. Coach Henderson took charge of the team and brought them thru the season in first class shape. Gymnastics is a very hard sport to accomplish, for there are so many fine technicalities connected with the judging, that oftentimes a team is defeated by a frac- tion of a point. ' Page Sr'-vrnly-Nirxr THE ROOSEVELT HIGH SCHOOL Early in the year the team put on several demonstrations before the public. They were asked to give an exhibition at the dedication services of a Fire Hall, and they appeared sev- eral times on the auditorium stage on various occasions. At first, a very few men were at- tracted by the call for gymnasts, but when the final call came for candidates to work into a team to represent the school at the Northwest Gymnastic fMeet a number of promising men turned out. Waldemar Nielson was the star of the season, as he placed high in every meet. He was among the high point winners in the all-city meet, the North meet, and was chosen as highest point winner in the Northwestern Gymnastic Meet, which was held at the Univer- sity of Minnesota, and he was also placed third highest in all of Class C., which included many college competitors. McMahon came to the front in the last of the season, and received awards for placing among the highest in the same meet with Nielson. Pufahl, Robillard, Shores, Hoppe, A. Rustad, Shaughnessy, Beck- ley, Sondrall, Dykeman, and Dvorack were the other members of the team, which helped in a very great way to bring it thru the season so successfully. Altho the team defeated North in a dual meet, this was counteracted when North nosed the Teddys out of first place in the all-city Meet. The climax of the season was reached when the team came home with second place from the Northwestern Gymnastic Meet which was held April Sth, 1924. Medals were awarded at South High School on the following Friday evening. Cross Country '23 HE Cross Country Race is just what it's name implies, a race up hill and down dale. For the Minneapolis meets, the course has been about two and one-fourth miles, over rath- er hilly ground in Glenwood Park. Despite a late start in training, our boys made a good showing at Glenwood, and also at the dual meets last fall at Rice Lake. Letters in Cross Country were awarded to Lowell An- derson, Stanley Brackett, Edmund Loughran, LeRoy Knutson and Carl Gonella. Prospects' for the Cross Country Team next semester are good. Several fellows have been doing good work in the longer runs of this spring's track season, and already a number have indicated their intention to enter the cross country races next fall. The city high school meets are a free-for-all, in which any eligible high school student may compete. Those who plan to enter these races should train during the summer, certainly for a few weeks before school opens in September. Walking a great deal, doing frequent short sprints, and timing yourself often on runs of two or three miles over rough and uneven ground, will do a great deal to put you into condition for this event. Tennis '2 3 ENNIS is a new sport which is growing in popularity at the Roosevelt High School. At the first call for candidates, Coach Ol- son had but very few respond. Later in the season more men turned out for the sport, and made a fine showing in the games played. Reamer and Schramek were the only two men to be awarded the R, however, Blomgren and Olson also played during the season, and Harold Olson qualified for the award, but left school too soon to be awarded the HR. The team de- feated East and Edison in the fall games, and made a fine showing against all other teams played. The spring season is only opening up, but it promises to he very successful as several men have signified their intentions of trying out for the team. In the rear of our school building there is adequate space for two or more standard sized tennis courts, which we hope to have completed in the very near future. When this has been accomplished it is certain that there will be a great number responding to the call for racket wielders. It is among our most popular sports and one of great enjoyment and physical benefits. Page Eighlr SCHEDULE OF THE SEASON NINETEIEN TVVENTY-FOUR MIRROR will lll . 'fzz me yn . ,. ? it A G.

Holy Smoke! the preacher shouted, ds he madly tore his hair, Now his dome resembles Heavferz, For there is no parting there.
