X' III spite of our youth we have formed a habit of the activity which brings us the most benefit and pleasure, that of attending Roosevelt High School. So as the date of departure draws near, it is with greatest reluctance that we prepare for the wholly undesirable procedure of breaking that habit.

Brown took over the post of Chairman of the Military Committee, as well as being our Military Instructor, while Miss White, who had held the position of Chairman of the Military Committee, was put in charge of all social events of the Cadets. We are extremely fortunate in having a man so well liked and respected by all as Lt. Brown as our Chair- man of the Military Committee, and wish him the success in future years that he has enjoyed this year. On March 26, the Second Battalion, Major Morton Rose commanding, won second place in the Annual Battalion Drill. On the same day, the Roosevelt Band, with Captain Udell Savage in command and Lewis Hightman as Drum Major, won second place in the Annual Band Competition. Three years ago, a hand of 18 pieces was organized. ln this short time this hand under the able direction of Mr. Jackson, has risen from 18 to 72 pieces, the largest band in the history of the Washington High School Cadet Corps, and the first band from Roosevelt to win a place in the Band Compe- tition. On April 23, the Fighting Fifthu won its third major triumph of the year. With Lt. Colonel ,loseph Mahoney in command and Captain William Heatwole as Regimental Adjutant, the Fifth Regiment won first place in the annual Regimental Competition. Credit should he given to Ex-Major Basso for his invaluable aid and assistance in preparing for the Battalion and Regimental Drills. As we turn our aspirations toward the Company Competitive Drill in an endeavor to either win or place in all of the t'Big Four, we can only say that we are proud to be in the Fifth Regiment. PHILIP WHARTON EVANS Lieutenant Company G ATHLETICS 1 Coaches Donald M. Brown Pass in review - and the Fifth Regiment of Roosevelt High School brought home both glory and honor to Donald M. Brown who is now celebrating his first season as Military Science and Tactics Professor. Already at his new post he has placed two feathers in his cap--the second place won by the Second Battalion, and the first place Won by the entire Regiment. Every cadet in the Corps is working hard for his instructor and it won't be long before Mr. Brown is the proud possessor of a complete headband and a bespangled chest. Mr. Lynn Woodworth Mr. Vlfoodworth has for many years carried the burden of the entire Athletic Department. Every day from nine oiclock until dark, he is coaching and supervising classes and teams, giving what it takes to make fighting men-always being a panacea for all ills whether mental or physical. This year he has two assistants, one devoting all of his time to athletics, the other only part time, and all these still have their hands full in spite of the division of work. As Mr. Woodworth follows the precedent which he alone can claim as his very own, may he have more time to enjoy the accomplishments of his proteges and may there be many proteges to enjoy Mr. Yvoodworth. A Mr. Herman Littman This year witnessed the arrival of a new coach whom we all know well in spite of our short acquaintance-Mr. Herman Littman. For his first season as assistant athletic supervisor, a second place basketball team and a capable but not yet tried baseball team are his reward. More will be heard about him in the future. EDDIE LYMAN ATHLETICS Football Team Football Team ATHLETICS Basketball Team Baseball Team ATHLETICS Track Team Tumbling Team ATHLETICS Mat Club Tennis Team ATHLETICS Football Looking back over the history of football teams representing Roosevelt, a marked improvement can be noticed in the progress made by each succeed- ing eleven. This year the third team in that history the same number of years in length, led by Co-Captains Francis Beamer and Spcro Kolins, placed itself far above the level of being a 'igood-loserw and a hard fighter. A wealth of players leave this June to return 110 more, hut a wealth of material remains to bring to a glorious culmination the ambitions of all Rooseveltians for leadership in interhigh competition. Basketball A second place team no more, no less, but we could hardly ask for more. After going through the season with so enviable a record, the Rough Riding Roosevelt team, under the guidance of Herman Littman, may feel honored for bringing so much glory to a new school. Probably a happier boy than Harry Silverman, Captain of the basket- ball team, could not be found when it was discovered that Roosevelt had only one better in the competition. Basketball also loses and leaves a host of players, and may those that are left for the next year carry on the good work. Track Seventy-eight--twenty-two-and so goes the first dual track meet of the season, and Roosevelt leads with flying colors. In previous years the annual summary of achievements of Roosevelt athletics did not include the successes of the track team, but a new era is at hand. Never before have the prospects for a gala season been so prom- ising, and worthy mention will be allotted to them in our history. Headed by Captain Truman Lancaster, a five point half-miler, may a competent team go forward and may they have all the luck in the world. Baseball That the exploits of a team so prominent in predictions of success cannot be described in this article is a great disappointment. This team is also under the management of Mr. Littman and even under close observation fails to lose any of the abundant ability which it is said to possess. The Election of Co-Captains George Coakley and Frank Bailey to office showed that the boys were selecting on merit as well as friendship. Under the combined efforts of Captains Coakley and Bailey and Coach Littman, a continuation of last yearis second place precedent can be assured. Gym Show A most successful Gym Show. 'lThe best ever. And on April first and second, a production through the courtesy of talent, gathered, rehearsed and exhibited by the instructors of athletics, was staged. Tumbling teams of both boys and girls filled the audience with awe and the auditorium with applause. Singing, dancing and impersonations all were the substance of that entertainment. Vlfith all the ingredients whipped up fine and mixed, the Master of Ceremonies, Mr. Wioodworth, an expert actor and critic, turned on the heat and served a crisp, brown, delectable dish to a hungry patronage.

Good Fellowship at Roosevelt Any day at Roosevelt one may see the many different phases of school life, other than those that pertain to studies, that help toward the develop- ment of lasting friendships and perfect school days. In our publication offices one finds an atmosphere above that of busi- ness cooperation. An atmosphere prevalent with friendship, fellowship, and jovial good humor. Our Roosevelt Reporter edited under such conditions far exceeds the publications of any other high school and our year book the Orange and Blue composed ,mid the eating of apples and good humored wise-crackingl' is steadily surpassing itself year by year. Two high spots of every school day are the fourth and fifth lunch periods at which time the students can be found indulging in their favorite pas- times other than eating. One finds a group of young fellows congregated on the gym steps and along the stadium railing throwing the bull or play- fully picking on one another. At this time of year many couples may be seen taking lap after lap around the school and wholly wrapped in one another's company oblivious of all surroundings and merely bearing out in reality the lines from a famous poet: 'cln the spring a young n1an7s fancy, etc. After three olclock in the locker room may be found the boys of the different teams joyfully getting into uniforms ,mid a feeling of comrade- ship hard to be equalled in other circles. Each boy,s goal is the develop- ment of finer coordination for teamwork and to perfect his individual ability for the aid of his teammates. With such moral standing our teams can not go down in defeat even though the score stands against them. In our Cadet Regiment is found a truly disciplined military organiza- tion beneficial to its members both scholastically and socially and sup- ported by the strong ties of friendship for the Girls, Auxiliary through whose efforts the cadet corps has enjoyed privileges denied the cadet corps of the other schools. Truly in Roosevelt one finds everything desirable for an enjoyable school life and those of us who leave in June leave with the deepest regrets that we are not just entering. ToM COLEMAN Hurricane Warning BY HAROLD TAYLOR Lt. Roderick Bucky Benton, U. S. N., sat bolt upright in bed and pushed his hair out of his eyes. Again there sounded the knocking which had awakened him. Buck rolled to the deck, then answered drowsily. Oka fn. '2Relieve the watch Mr. Bentonn, came the voice of Lt. O,Neill, officer of the deck. Buck, still befogged with sleep, glanced at the chronometer on the bulkhead. It stood at 23 145, or a quarter to 12. Buck straightened his uniform, rumpled in consequence of his having slept in it, combed his hair, wiped his eyes and stepped out of his quarters. He had lately been transferred from his pet battlewagon to this confounded Mean , and he wasn't entirely used to it yet. He stretched his cramped muscles and looked around. Overhead, the battle-light bathed the wardroom with its soft blue glow. The snores of some of his brother officers came to him faintly thru the wardroom door, and he envied them. Eight bells struck suddenly, and throwing off his lethargy, he dashed topside. The cool night wind blowing from the Cooper River revived his depressed spirits and he hurried to the bridge. O'Neill glanced up impatiently as he entered. Little late, Mr. Benton. Must have been something I ietfn commented Buck dryly, then as 0'Neill turned to go, Pleasant dreamsli' He turned to the quartermaster and inquired for the morning orders. N24-00 , recited the quartermaster, Relieve the watch , 5'013O , Make preparations for getting under way . H0300, Get under wayf' '4Very well yawned Buck. He wondered if the old man was going to allow him to take complete charge in getting under way, or would he have slept off his night's carousal and be on the bridge at six bells. Relieve the anchor watchl' he commanded. Leaving the bridge he made his rounds of the deck, checking up on the watch and conditions generally. At five bells he set a wheel watch. At 02445, he summoned the deck petty officer. 'GStand by the hawsers in preparation for getting under way. Then he added. Relieve the anchor watch . At six bells, the captain was still below. Accordingly, Buck, assuming command, bellowed down to the deck, Stand by to cast off . Starboard engine, one third ahead, port engine one third astern. The answering clang of the engine room telegraph came, and the ship trembled slightly as the propellers began to revolve. Cast offg all engines one-third ahead. Quartermaster set your course 3 for that flashing white light,' pointing to the light that marked the entrance to Charleston Harbor. The boatswain struck three bells. Call all handsn. The lights of Charleston and the Navy Yard faded in the distance, as they steamed past the site of old Fort Sumter and out into the open sea. Make your course 14-8, Quartermaster. The shrill piping of the boatswain's whistle came to them as they summoned the sleepy men from their hunks. The men piled out of their hunks, muttering vain protests and directing curses at the merciless boatswains for breaking a man's rest at such an ungodly hour. The rising sun was a glorious shimmering orange on the tranquil summer sea. The balmy breezes generated by the Gulf Stream would have filled anyone but sailors with the joy of living. The men soon completed the light task of 'fturning to on a destroyer and then came the welcome call of the boatswains' Pipe down for chown. After breakfast, the crew turned ton again for the more serious things of painting, scraping, tarring or veneering new rigging, and winding the lately used hawsers on their drums. At the officers mess, Lt. Commander Redign, the captain of the 126, finally showed himself. His face was red and beefy, with heavy pouches under his eyes. His entire aspect was the exemplification of the previous nights, dissipation. He glanced around as he entered and greeted his juniors with the familiar Good morning, Gentleinenn. Lt. O,Neill sighed, and longed for the good old days, several years agone before Commander Redign had taken to drink. The low tone of morale aboard the ship which Buck had sensed when he first came aboard was due to this one bad fault of their captain. ' lid hate to see him in a real emergencyv whispered Buck to Ensign Leamans. ulid give a month's wages if he would only snap out of it , was the answer. Later when Buck returned to the bridge, Redign was bending over the chart table and the men on watch were lolling at their ease. fliiedign, noting suddenly, the disapproval and annoyance expressed on Buck's face straightened up suddenly and violently cleared his throat. The action incurred was remarkablej The receiving signalman was bending over the lifeline watching the antics of a school of porpoisesg the sending signalman, his flags tucked under his arm, was absorbed in 'his fingernails, and the man 011 the speed flags was busily engaged in scratching his initials in the case. The signalman's flags generated quite a fair breeze with the latest message, and the receiver began scribbling something on his pad though no message was forthcoming from their sister ship. The flag denoting the latest speed shot up on the halyard suddenly and the old one dropped. The startled expressions and the ludicrous burst of activity was not without its humor, and Buck burst out laughing, to be rewarded with a reproachful glance from Redign. When he returned to the bridge several hours later, the heretofore silent aerial began to crackle with the familiar signature of the weather bureau. Then the message followed, repeated often. The messenger dashed to the bridge and handed it to Commander Redign. Emergency call, Hurricane Warning, Low pressure area 27 degrees 9 minutes south, 77 degrees six minutes west. Direction, due north, speed approx. 95 M. P. HY, t'Very well , nodded Redign. Buck had read the message over the captain's shoulder. For the first time since Buck had been aboard, Redign looked perturbed. His was the responsibility of bringing thru the threatening storm the two-hundred twenty-odd men and officers, and the vessel with which he was entrusted. According to our location and the location and speed of the hurricane we should meet in aboutahalf an hour , Commented 0'Neill to no one in particular. P A look at the sky made the approaching storm seem paradoxical. Barometer falling rapidly, sir , reported Ensign Leaman. Very well , muttered Redign. He was experiencing the first weight of the great responsibility that had suddenly been thrust upon him and he already looked a changed man. He leaned over the rail and shouted, Bos'n, sound all hands on deck , not waiting to relay the com- mand via a junior which is usually and formally the case, and which showed that he had lost some of his self control. Secure all small boats, and do a double with every weak looking object. Tighten the awnings, close all watertight doors and hatches, put an extra coat of grease on the guns and torpedo tubes, and lash the gun covers and torpedo tubes to the deck. The officers were obeying his orders mechanically, with puzzled expres- sions on their faces, lglancing at him now and thenj so unused were they to Redign's present state. A sudden ominous dead calm had struck the sea. The skies were leaden. This was the calm that precedes the storm. A low moaning whine was now heard! lt grew inside of a minute to a terrific shriek. All hands below , bellowed Redign, his hat gone, his hair and uni- form disheveled by the first terrific blast. The ship had been making standard speed, Q20 knotsj when the hurricane struck them but now they were practically at a standstill. The uncomfortable rolling, pitching and tossing was having its effect on everyone. The expressions on their wry faces, caused by their efforts to hold down the contents of their distressed stomachs would have been comical in a situation other than this. Buck ordered one of the seamen to go below and fetch several buckets as they would soon be sorely needed. The ship was now leaping spasmodically through the water, her bow and stern alternately rising and falling, exposing her propellers, which, with a full head of steam on raced alarmingly. Then with the racing still on, the stern would plunge beneath the sea and impart a violent kick to the vessel. Her speed threw the spray to her mast-tops, and water was constantly crashing against the windshield of the bridge. The unlucky men in the engine room, closed in airtight amidst the screaming turbines, and clashing gears were having the worst time of anyone on the ship. On the bridge, Redign's orders came like the cracking of a whip. He paused only to make a two or three second observation. Since the rudder alone was incapable of keeping the bow head-on into the wind, he was forced to use the propellers. Therefore, the man at the engine room tele- graph bore the brunt of his commands. Port engine, full speed astern, starboard engine full ahead. Star- board engine two-thirds astern, Port engine full aheadf, Then noting a sudden shifting in the direction of the wind, Quartermaster, make your course 195 , then as the quartermaster spun the wheel viciously, Meet ierl Both engines full ahead! 'iWhat are you standing there looking so dumb about? This to 0'Neill, who was clinging to a stanchion, fascinated by the motions of the captain. '6Don't stand there gawking, find something to do! Watch your course helmsmanl', The inattention resulting from this tirade had swung the ship several points out of the wind. O'Neill glanced around helplessly searching for something that might require a good deal of noisy attention, then, as a qualm of nausea overcame him, he released his hold on the stanchion. The ship gave a sudden lurch, throwing him from his feet, and he fell under the windbreaker frame, strik- ing his head a painful blow on the '4Pelorus stand. He then slid into a corner where with a groan he gave up to the mal-de-mern. Buck, just back from the deck where he had been helping the men reach the hatch, and with his oilskins torn from his body by the force of the wind, staggered over and helped O'Neill to his feet. All right , bellowed O'Neill, Pm all right . Buck had just turned away when a sudden ear-splitting crack was heard above the roar of the hurricane followed by a rending crash, and the cry of a man in pain. The foremast had come down, and driven like a gigantic spear by the wind, split open the Starboard side of the lower bridge, and radio shack, crushing the messenger against the bulkhead, knocking the signalman senseless, and hopelessly smashing the sending equipment. Lt. Bentonli' bellowed Redign, Investigate the accidentln Aye, Aye, sir . The injured men had been removed to the sick bay, when Buck arrived on the scene. He hurriedly organized a wrecking party of the men on the scene and under the greatest difficulty and danger, seven seasick seamen finally heaved the last of the wreckage overboard and reported, All secured! All wreckage cleared, sir, radio damaged beyond repair, two casu- alties, water entering the seamen's quartersf' Dangerously so?', asked Redign. Very small quantity sir, the men have rigged a tarpaulin over it. Very well. By Jupiter, l believe it is slacking upf' Sure enough, the hurricane was passing as quickly as it had come. ln shrieking diminuendo, it blew itself out, leaving the seas in a turmoil. All through the night the waves ran high, and Redign stayed on the bridge. Then the rosy dawn seemed to quell the troubled spirit of the deep and in a few hours the sea was again calm. Hours later, while steaming through the tropical sea back toward Charleston, the officers gathered in the wardroom and each one congratu- lated Commander Redign on the way he had brought the 126 through the hurricane. The raised morale of the crew was conspicuous as the ship took orders issued by a competent oflicer as in the days gone by. 39 Assemblies October--Opening assembly of the school year.

Pinafore in December. This, one of the most famous of the Gilbert and Sullivan light operas, was given under the direction of Miss Thompson and Miss Galbraith. The part of the Admiral was taken by Charles Mc- Lendon, resplendent in his full dress and moustache grown specially for the occasion. The Sailor was portrayed and sung by Harry Nicter. Howard Bowers took the role of the Captain of the Pinafore. Josephine was sung by Betty Sando while the part of Buttercup was taken by Thelma Steele. Chapter the Second. The annual Christmas play was W hy the Chimes Rang. Miss Manning and Miss Galbraith directed this play. The part of Holga was taken by Frances Dewey, Stein was ably portrayed by Gertrude Levy, while Charles McLendon took the part of the Uncle, and Mimi Norton as the old woman. Another person who added much to the beauty of the play was Barbara Schmidt, who took the part of the angel. This play was undoubtedly one of the finest Christmas plays ever produced on the Roose- velt stage. Chapter the Third. The Spring Play that was chosen for this year was T ommy. After having done two highly successful costume plays in past years, the powers that be decided to follow up Trelawney of the Wells, and Twelfth Night with something of a lighter vein. Tommy was a modern farce in every sense of the word. The part of Mrs. Thurber was taken by Dorothy Beach, while Kalmon Marmer took the part of her husband. Philip Wharton Evans took the part of the Uncle, David Tuttle. Wayne Hill played the part of Tommy, the lover, with Frances Dewey as the girl he loved. Albert Cole- man took the part of Bernard, the boy who lost out in the love tangle. Under the capable guidance of Mrs. Jo Mace, the play was presented on April 30th and May lst. We must give due credit to Mrs. Outwater and the Bankg Mrs. Martinez as Business Manager, the Stage Crewg the Art Departmentg and the Print Shop, without whose valuable time and assistance these plays could not have possibly been given.
