For Roose- velt junior High School, these have truly been years of progress. It is the purpose of the 1934 Yearbook stall' to trace, in part. this cle- velopment by reviewing the yea1 s activities of home rooms, special-interest clubs and service organizations, and by outlining the program of organized play and CXtl'Zl.-Cl1l'1'lClllIl.1' pursuits. five ROOSEVELT in To learn how to adapt one's self to changing conditions in this fast-moving age is to learn how to live. In the realization of this larger ideal, the student body of Roosevelt has had the friendly guidance and the civic example of Mr. Arthur G. Larson. To him, therefore, in sincere appreciation of this inspiration, the staff of the 1934 Yearbook dedicates this volume. six 1934 cOl1'lEl1'S Foreword Dedication A Greeting A Theme Faculty Home Rooms - Activities Athletics Humor Roosevelt Review Snapshots ROOSEVELT The publishing of the 1934 l'r'urlm0k for the Theodore Roosevelt Junior High School is an opportunity for the editors to picture and describe the activities of the school over at period of three years with special emphasis on the activities of the class going to the Rockford Senior High School in September, 1934. It is to be hoped that the readers of this Ymrlmolc will discover the real objectives of the junior high school organization, and realize it is not like the elementary school because the seventh and eight grades are included, or like high school because the ninth grade is included. A casual reading of this book indicates that this is a new type of school organ- ization attempting to furnish experiences for the early adolescent youth where he can bc expected to discover, explore, train, and apply his abilities, capacities, and aptitudes. The contents of this l em'Imuk indicate very clearly that it is the function of this junior high school to offer opportunities for training pupils rather than teaching traditional sub- ject niatter to children.

Mufh, Prilzcijml 'N 1 HHIC' R o o s E V E L T A Decade of DEVGIODIDGITI This school year, 1933-34, is the tenth since Roosevelt junior High School tirst opened its doors to students. On September 2, 1934, 1,023 students re- ported to the auditorium, were distributed to home rooms, and the First junior high school in Rockford had begun its school history. Thirty-five teachers, one clerk and a principal were on the staff. Now we find a student enrollment of 1,523 supervised by fifty-one teachers, two clerks, an assistant principal, and a principal. During this time 7,640 different students have been enrolled, and of this number 4,250 have graduated. Students who are enrolled now will be more interested in changes in the school day, length of periods, and subjects oiiered. For example, our school day formerly began at 8:30 and lasted until 3:30 with forty-five minutes for lunch. Periods were fifty-live minutes in length. Home-room periods were first held from 10:30-11:00 a. m., and then later from 2:00-2:30 p. m. Some students who now report to Room 202 at 3130 may be interested in the fact that such students formerly reported to the Cafeteria at 3 :30 -but not to eat. Changes have also occurred in the course of study, particularly in elective subjects. Formerly 7A's were permitted to choose between penmanship and spelling, and dramatics and public speaking. Latin and French were offered in SB, but this was later changed to our present course in general language. At one time typewriting was offered in the eighth grade, and students in this grade were also required to take either music or drawing. Ninth-grade stu- dents will be interested in the fact that students in this grade we1'e required to carry six subjects instead of five. There were no study hall or library periods and, incidentally, no outside assignments. Of course, the changes in subject matter and methods and teaching have been numerous but are too detailed to present here. Change doesn't always mean progress. However, those of us who have been associated with the junior high school movement since its beginning in Rockford believe that these adjustments have contributed to the acceptance of the junior high school as a regular part of a mondern school program.

The FBCCIHY So far as the junior high school is concerned, the fitness of a teacher involves thorough scholarship, a large and generous and inspiring personality. adequate professional training. understanding of, and love for, boys and girls in their early adolescence, qualities of real leadership. and a broad social out- look which will result in positive service in the school and which will connect the school and its pupils with the social environment outside. -fGosling, State Department of Education for Vtfisconsinj.

On the staff of Trddylv News, Jeane Olson served as literary editor and ,lack Heath as circula- tion manager. During the last semester Roseann Cox was chosen as editor of the paper, making Jack Heath her assistant. During the three-year period the members of the group secured a number of coveted records and prizes. Dick Michaelson had the distinction ot being the only pupil in the room to be neither absent nor tardy for the three years. In eighth grade Roseann Cox was awarded a tive-dollar bill for her prize-winning essay in the American Legion contest. Harry VVortman, one of the most popular boys in the class, was chosen 9A president. Jean Miller and Marjorie Ruppert were winners in the animal Book Week contest, sponsored by the English department. Charlotte Riche captured typing and spelling honors. In the Honors assembly, held the last week of the semester, athletic certificates were presented to Marion Ryan, Leona Shakotus, Bob Jepsen. and Harry VVortman. Swimming letters were won by Marjorie Ruppert, Marion Ryan, Dorothy johns, and Janet Stevenson. Accomplishments for the members of this class were many. Only a modest be- ginning, they insisted, as they went to the senior high School.

During the first year Mr. Ivan Nicholas was the home-room teacher. NVhen he was chosen for promotion and made assistant principal of Barbour School, an elementary school from which many junior high school boys and girls come, the members of the group were assigned to room 309. Mr. John WVise was then made the adviser-it happened to be Mr. VVise's first home room. Officers for the class during the last semester included the following: president, Janice Minett, secretary, ClitTord Jackson, student council member, Shirley Buschg girl sanitary officer, June Tosteng reporter for Tcddylr News, Janice Minett. This group included a number who were outstanding as scholars and athletesg pe- culiarly enough, these were all girls. June Tosten, Lois Halton, Virginia Torgerson, and Laura Hoover were in the first group. Members of the volley ball team which won the championship for home rooms were Helen Skopinski, captaing Marian Marks, Bar- bara Holmesg Evelyn Perryg Jennie Saudargas, and Geraldine Simonds. Throughout the three years the class had a number of jolly times together ou picnics and parties, but the one which they remen1bered most happily was the Christmas party during the first year, when childish games and fun made up the most of the entertainment. eighteen 1934 Top row: Lawrence Bowden, Bayford Saunders, Leo Riggins, Bernard Hill, XYilfred Cooling, Claude Smith.

Catherine Mathews and Mary Lou VVarner served capably as home-room officers during the last semester. Members of the group who took active part in the various service clubs of the school included Rhoda Jane Knowlton, Elizabeth Beechuni, Lee Smith, and Helen Contarino. The members of 304A were not very successful in capturing scholastic honors. They had outstanding members, nevertheless. Jeanne Lundgren and Leona Erickson were ardent talkers: Marian Rockwell and Rosemary VVacle were the gum-chewing champions of the school, Lawrence Bowden had the disturbing habit of losing things without being able to find themg Sheldon Knights motto became Silence is golden , Junior Nelson and VVilliam Hoppe appeared as the happy twins, speedy but not perfect, and other fast workers of the group were Olin Marshall, Bernard Hill, Leo Riggins, and NVilfred Cooling. In Honors assembly, however, this group had its representatives. Certificates and emblems in athletics were awarded Betty VVarne and Blanche Sertoftg in service, to Rhoda Jane Knowlton for her work on the student council committee, in scholarship, to Catherine Mathews. Miss Anna Hyland had charge of this group during its three-year stay at Roosevelt. 1zi11ete0n l ROOSEVELT Top row: Ernest Nelson, Jack Boetteher, Donald Simonrls, Raymond Keegan, Tossie Tremulis, Roland Larson, james Burt, Layton Hoel.

As 7B's they were lost among the long tables, the chairs, and the sewing machines of this big room 317 for a short time. Miss Maxine Smith, their home-room teacher, very soon saw to it that they were organized, busy, and happy. For the three years she did much to illuminate life for them. Perhaps no class changed its personnel more often than did this one, but when one dropped out, another soon took his place. Home-room officers for the group during its last semester included the following: president, Roland Larsong vice president, jack Boettchcrg secretary and treasurer, Kath- erine Vinccnt: student council member, Esther Zalmg reporter for Tvn'dy's News, Eva VVhiteg boys' sanitary officer, Layton Hoelg traltic officers, Roland Larson, Raymond Keegan, and james Contarino. Not many of the group were on the honor roll, but this did not keep the members of the group from laying a firm foundation for future advancement in the higher steps of education. They did boast of a long list of athletes. On this line-up for the girls were the following: Anita Branca, Katherine De Cori, Carolyn Peterson, Yvonne Runyan, Eva lVhite, and Esther Zahn, for the boys were Raymond Keegan, Roland Larson, James Novak, Alex Scalise, and Donald Sinionds. In Honors assembly the following boys and girls were awarded emblems and certificates as outstanding athletes: Ruth Tay- lor, jack Boettcher, Layton Hoel, and Tossie Tremulis. twenty 1934 Top row: Arthur Jones, Eugene Homemtna, jack NVantz.

The officers of this home room for the First semester were VVard Thompson, who served as prcsidentjjack VVantz, vice president, and Adella Luhman, secretary. During the last year two very worth-while assemblies were presented. The first of these was a one-act comedy, entitled The New Teacher. The outstanding characters of this play were Marjory Macrae and Margery Ackemann. Margery Ackemann, the new teacher, appeared to be quite sophisticated, while in contrast to her, Marjorie Macrae was extremely clever as well as entertaining in the role of Polly, the mischievous pupil. The second assembly was a mock trial. This proved to be enlightening as well as en- tertaining, for it was given in the usual court procedure. The judge was Arthur Jones, the defendant, Marvin Graf, the two attorneys, Marjorie Macrae and Richard Philipson, and the clerk, Frederick Holly. The assembly was very well done and the attorneys were quite eloquent. The 1nembers of this room have also enjoyed several delightful Thanksgiving, Hal- loween, and Christmas parties. One of the outstanding Halloween parties was given at the home of Pat johns on North Main Road. Everyone was highly entertained. It proved to be a riot of fun. Some fine philanthropic work has been carried on, for generous Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets have been presented yearly. twenty-one ROOSEVELT Top row: Iunoir Brace, Roger Porter, Bert MeCleneghan, NVilliam Douglas, Paul Nolte, Ronald St-:l'fa, Robert Kline, Tom Dowd, Stuart Lindsay.

Class officers for the group are as follows: president for first semester, Bob Shanhouseg second semester, Barbara Cooling, vice president for First semester, Roger Porterg second semester, Dorothy Ferguson: secretary and treasurer for first semester, Barbara Coolingg second semester, Scott Shnmway. Paul Nolte served as traffic officer forboth terms. Joseph Anderson as boys' sanitary officer, Eleanor Alberts as girls' sanitary officer, Leon Harris as student council representative, and Roger Porter as re- porter served for the two semesters. The assemblies staged by the members of this group were interesting and entertain- ing. Once they presented the famous quarrel scene from Julius Caesar, in which Mr. J. Francis Herzog took the part of Brutus and Alfred Pilling the part of Cassius. The last assembly was a radio broadcast, one of the cleverest assemblies of the year. Henry Coretz distinguished himself as Rubinoffg Roger Porter, as Joe Pennerg and Jeff Craw- ford, as Eddie Cantor. ln the Book Wleek contest during the first semester, John NVhitcomb took first prize with his poster on Lindbergh. Henry Coretz is concert master of the orchestra: and Roger Porter has the important job of being editor of the school paper, Tvddy's News. The Christmas party last year was enlivened by Zl7's own German band, Herr Von Schmidt Cjefterson Crawfordj and his maniacs. Their specialty and theme song hap- pened to be Ach du lieber Augustinfl Miss Joyce. the assistant principal, was among the concert enthusiasts at this first appearance. twenty-two 1934 Top row: Carl Leach, john Eyrle, Harold Crane, Gerald Crane, Philip DuPlain, Lawrence Morrow, Clifford NVise, Clifton Edwards, Donald Bender.

An operetta, The Gypsies Bold, a theatrical, a one-act comedy entitled Sail Right In. and a fine travelogue by Leslie Young Correthers of the Keith School faculty were 2l5's assembly contributions during the year. 'All of these were greatly enjoyed. The class as a whole held a fine scholastic record: no one had to repeat work and many were on the honor roll. Many members gave time on school projects. Louise Gardner, for example, was literary editor for the school paper, and Lucille Gardner and Betty Delehanty were president and secretary of the Dramatics Club. Harwood Catlin took second prize on his poster in the Book Xveek contest. In addition these boys and girls have their home-room football, basket ball, and baseball teams. Harwood Catlin was captain each time. One of the school's leading swimmers, Bob Harvey, is a member of this room. Many social meetings and parties were enjoyed. There was one at Christmas, another at Halloween, and still another St. Valentine's Day. At Christmas they were not too busy to remember those less fortunate. and gave three large baskets of provisions to deserving families. twenty-tlzrce ROOSEVELT Top row: Fred Heinzeroth, Raymond Bowden, John Kizevic, Gerson Amdur, Carl Hanson, Arthur Ander- son, Harry Unger, Douglas Fmley, George Doerr, Robert Johnson.

Several of the forty-two were recently added to the group. These included Arthur Anderson, Donald Beck, Velma Lynch, Robert Johnson. and Douglas Fraley. For the past semester the group had the following members for home-room olificers: president, Gerson Amdurg vice-presidents, Harry Unger and Vincent Smithg secretary and treasurer, Douglas Fraley. Service officers of the group for the same period were Harry Unger for student council representative: Vera Friberg for reporter: Virginia Koch for girls' sanitary officer, Howard Polombi and Fred Heingeroth for boys' sanitary officersg and Donald King and NVallace Breon for traffic officers. A number of boys in the group were musically inclined, for Harry Unger was a mem- ber of the band, and Howard Polombi, Fred Heingeroth, and Rodney Anderson were members of the orchestra. Perhaps they were influenced by Miss Naime Eckberg, the well-liked home-room teacher, who is a member of Rockford's musical groups and a musician of note. Parties and good times were also a part of the group's activities. The Hal- loween party this year was held at Georgia Haseman's home, and the Christmas party was given at school. At Thanksgiving time, instead of having a party, the group made up a basket of provisions with which they made a poor family happy. fwz'm'y-four 1934 Top row: Virgil Orr, Herbert McGee, Raymond Douglass, Howard .VVick, Harry Kruse, Raymond' Nel- son, Harry Stockwell, Ralph Wolfe, William Howick, Franklin Regan, Laurence Lupo, William Knott.

Mason Sattcrthwaite had a perfect record on the honor roll until the past year. Daniel and Raymond Gutzwiller brought honors to Roosevelt through their swimming performances. The girls of the room were more successful athletes than the boys, for they came in second on the volley ball championship the first semester and captured first place in basket ball the second.

At Halloween time they had a party at Camp Rotary mess hall, where everyone wore costumes and received prizes. The Christmas party was held in the home room. Both parties were enjoyed immensely.

They came in first when the subscription list for 7'vda'y'5 News, the school paper, was submitted to them. This happened both semesters. ,lack Porter, the home-room reporter, was advertising manager the second semester. On the honor roll they showed that there were ambitious students to be found among them. 7A's though they were, Doris VVilIiams, Marian NVitt, Lowen Shearer, and Jack Porter made records. In music, again, they showed definitely that they had much talent. Perhaps this was due to the lively interest their home-room teacher, Miss Fredricksen. had in things musical. At any rate, they had five boys and two girls in the orchestra, and nine boys in the beginners' band. Always be trustworthy and willing to work was the class motto. They took it seriously.

They began by calling themselves the 4l1V's, which means Willing workers will win. Under the expert guidance of the home-room teacher, Mr. Arthur Annis, this seemed to be easy for them. Home-room otticers for the past year included the following: Dale Bookman, presi- dentg Thomas Layng, vice presidentg Jack Layng, secretary, and Dicer O'Connor, treas- urer. Service otficers for the first semester included Burtress Kellogg, girls' sanitary olTicerg Harry Green, boys' sanitary officerg Margaret Fulton, reporterg Richard Cleary, tratific officer, and Florence Kuhlmeier, student council representative. The second- semester otficers were the same except one. Earl Hoover became the new reporter for the room. The group enjoyed a memorable Christmas party in which all exchanged gifts and had a gay time. They made Christmas al happier day for an unfortunate family by pre- senting them with a big basket of provisions. During the past year many members of the room made enviable records for them- selves. Dale Bookman made the seho0l's honor roll a number of times. Twenty of the boys and girls were neither absent nor tardy since September. They were among the eleven rooms at Roosevelt who went over 100 per cent in Tvddy's News subscription drive. Donald Coomber became a junior reporter on the stat? of the Rockford Morning Star. Along with a program of athletics which they carried forward throughout the year, all this made a full program of work and fun.

Home-room officers for 204 this past year have been the following: Donald Lob- dell, president, Suzzanne Olson, vice president, Vivian Othmer, secretaryg and Hubert WVilliams, treasurer. The room did not have many service club representatives this past year, however, jack Sydow represented the room as reporter for '1'vddy's Nr-w.v and Eleanor VValsh served as a member of the student council. Nancy Ross, perhaps the smallest girl at Roosevelt. was the only member of the room to earn a coveted place on the school's honor roll, This she did both semesters. Two delightful parties were a part of the year's program. At Christmas time the class held a party in the home room, when everyone exchanged a funny present with some one elsep on St. Valentines Day another party was given with a valentine box and refreshments.

Miss Otto, one of the commercial teachers. was the home-room adviser. She agreed that the name chosen was apt. Members of the group had the delightful and entertaining habit of staging home-room shows and entertainments which added to the pleasure of all. A recent one included the following: vocal selections by Margaret Branca, Helen Evanson, Marion Hall, Glen Gunther, and Eleanor Erickson: a song Qin French, if you pleasej by Edward Harrison: a poem by Lucille Coleman: a saxophone solo by Raymond Barton. For assembly pro- grams in the near future they planned to present Marguerite Hill, Betty Jane Gallaher, and Martha Barton, pianists, and Lois Collins and Alvin Gunther, violinists.

Miss Claire Scone, home-room teacher, was in no small way responsible for all the fine things they accomplished. Among the forty-two members were talented musicians, a graceful dancer, and a clever little acrobat. The musicians included Frances Sagona, Paul VVinquist, Charles Martin, and Mary Paganog the dancer was Rosemary Pagano. The boys were enthusiastic basket ball fans. They formed a team and made a fine showing, tying for the championship. This team included the following boys: Charles Martin, Stanton Kreger, Donald Liomin, John XVendell, Dale Thorpe, Allen Oldcnburger, VVilbur Neiber, and Paul Wiilqiiist.

Books on every side, long tables at which to work, and lovely pictures to enjoy were theirs each day for the last half hour. Miss Lydia VVilliams, a general science teacher who came to Roosevelt from Highland School last fall, was the home-room adviser. Social affairs were not many in number, but these pupils enjoyed very much the party they had in their home room on St. Patrick's Day. Home-room officers for the first semester included the following: president, Richard Morgang vice president, Frances Shugartg secretary, Marcia Norton. They felt that they would not need the services of a treasurer this past year, so none was elected. The members ot' the group established an enviable record when it came to scholarship. Their first qnarter's grades at Roosevelt placed nine of them on the honor roll. As they go on, they plan to keep up this good work and add to it as well. fifty-Jive ROOSEVELT Toprow: Frank LaRosa, Richard Greene, Robert Fall, Norman Anderson, Vt'illmer Brewster, Gnstaf Forsman, Eugene Balcom, Peter Ginmbriuno, Robert Glenny, James Ellis.

There were forty in the group that came from XV:-ilker, Garrison, Church, Ellis, Barbour, and Franklin schools to be counselled by Miss Anna Hyland, home-room teacher. Soon after they came, they organized a home-room club. They called themselves the Forty Chums. The officers were the following: president, Patricia Heathg vice president. Norman Anderson: secretary-treasurer. Frank Bennett. The service officers for the same time were Elizabeth Brearly, student council representative, and Velma Jean Crockett, reporter. A number of the boys and girls in this group showed an interest in the musical oppor- tunities offered them at Roosevelt. Bob Fall, Earl Durham, Eugene Balcom, Richmond Bertrand, XVilliam Kelsey. Vliilliam Brewster, and Robert Glenny joined the band. Mary Cosgrove, Patricia Heath, Richard Greene, and Velma Jean Crockett were members of the orchestra. In auditorium lately some of the group entertained the seventh-grade classes with their presentation of a delightful little skit, The Seven Kings of Attheryf' XVith this kind of a start they have every opportunity to accomplish many interesting things while at Roosevelt. iffy-Sir 1934 Top row: Charles Moline, Russell Newkirk, Richard Nelson, Thomas VVhite, Luigi Mariani, Sam Turi- ciao.

' 7B 114 Another incoming 7B group was the Jolly Forty. These boys and girls were assigned to Miss Evelyn Lundvall in room 114. There among the pots and kettles of one of Roosevelt's well-equipped domestic science rooms they worked or planned together from three to three-thirty every day. In their organization meeting held early in the semester, they chose the following officers: president, Danny Mrozg secretary, Kathleen Sassalig student council member, Lucille Olson, girls' sanitary officer. LaVonne Shores: boys' sanitary officer, Vtfilliam Rcumg and reporter, Keith Mulford. In scholarship, athletics, and social aflairs, of course, tl1e group was unable to accom- plish very much in such a short time. Mavis Carley secured a place on the honor roll which made the class proud of her. They enjoyed their first party, one on St. Valentine's Day, very much. At other times during home-room periods they entertained each other with character songs and dances. fifty-.ret 'cn ROOSEVELT Top row: Robert Divan, Ferdinand Joseph, Clyde Bassett, Robert Krug, Charles Firinan, Ralph Carlson, Jack Hall, Howard Green.

The members of the group came from many schools including Montague, Barbour, Franklin, VVelsh, Ellis, and Church. Part of the first month's activity was to select home-room officers, who had charge of the meetings usually held on Mondays. Felipa Carrillo was the presidentg Betty Ann Foster, the vice president, Ruth Lindeberg, the secretary-treasurer. There were no service officers from this group the first semester, but Charles Fearn acted as reporter for the school paper, Tcddgfs News. Class members showed school spirit by the way in which they supported the school projects of the second semester, for example, Friday afternoon plays in the auditorium, candy sales, and Big Boy sales. Felipa Carrillo was the lucky member of the group when it came to grades. She got on the honor roll her first quarter. Many others hope to win this distinction for them- selves before they are graduates of Roosevelt. fifty-eight 1934 Top row: Paul Spera, Richard Skelton, Clark Harry XVheadon, Luke Matranga, Mario Ziinma, Russell Oellig, Robert Sleeter.

Most of the members of this class came from Church School: a few of them from Ellis: and Robert Holt, from Sheffield Junior School, Sheffield, Alabama. For the home-room adviser they had Mr. David Schoonmakcr, who did much to help them to adjust them- selves to Roosevelt and its organization. No home-room otticers were chosen as Mr. Schoomnaker felt that the class was too busy to hold business meetings during home room time. Many suggestions he gave to them during these periods, they worked hard to carry out in school life. For example, he suggested that it is wise to load up with more work than they could do: to compete with others or with their own record: to do more than is expected of themg to use their spare time for self-improvement, to learn the habit of persistenceg and ncvcr to be afraid of overwork. t During this semester Helen Poluyanskis acted as student council representative and Evelyn Smith as reporter for Tcddylr Nr zt'.v. Vtiith such a Hne start, the class hopes sincerely to make records in scholarship, athletics, and citizenship. fifty-nine R O O S E VE L T The Camera Caught Them fy ' TB WMV?

To fulfill its purpose,'members issue admits to those who wished to attend morn- ing opportunity classes and directed students in the auditorium before school and during assembly performances. For various entertainments throughout the year, the club proved an aid by selling tickets. On February 15, the council sponsored a program pref- sented by Mardoni, a prominent magician, who entertained with feats of magic and a baffling escape from a strong box. The most important business of the year was the Yearbook drive which ended with an aggregate of nine hundred subscriptions. Florence Hall headed the campaign with thirty-seven sales, and Atta Snow, Betty Newkirk, Grace Wfalker, and Angeline Spainhower were the other leaders. Rooms 210 and 215 exhibited fine school spirit by leading all home rooms in the total number of subscribers. During club period on April 6, an initiation for new members was staged in which seven- teen boys and girls were introduced Ronald Lewis was the head man of the council for both semestersg Harry Vllortman, first semester, and Leon Harris, second semester, were the vice presidents, Robert Braddy and Charles Tucker shared the secretarial position, and 'lack Altekruse and Mary McDonald served in the capacity of treasurer. Miss Joyce has sponsored this club for the past five years. Much of its fine spirit of co-operation and service is due to her capable and efficient guidance. WXOR Hlcfr 'OOLICQ' Traffic Club The Theodore Roosevelt Junior High School Traffic Officers' Club was organized when the school opened ten years ago. The club aimed to protect the life and property of each student in school. This 'was done by keeping order in the halls, on the streets before and after school, and by taking care of the bicycle room. There has never been any serious accident near or on the school grounds. Part of the credit must go to the traffic otficers. VVarren W'olfe and Donald King served as chiefs during the past year. Mr. Larson, who was the head of the Social Science Department and popular in the political field, has served as sponsor for almost five years. Court was held every Friday during club period when offenders were tried and given sentences, if found guilty. The success of this club was made possible by the co-operation of the pupils, the enthusiastic efforts of the traffic officers, and the generosity of Mr. Larson in giving his assistance and time. sixty-tlzrce ROOSEVELT Girls' Sanitary Officer Club Of all clubs, the Girls' Sanitary Officer Club is one that the school must have in order to insure a good school appearance. The Girls' Sanitary Officer Club consists of twenty-nine members who are elected by their home rooms and supervised by Miss Evelyn Mundhenke. These girls, on their enrollment, are awarded pins on which the name of the club is engraved. The officers of the club are Lena Buratti, presidentg Evelyn Allen, vice presidentg and Vir- ginia Koch, secretary. The meetings are held every Friday aftrnoon during the customary club period. Each member has certain duties, such as keeping the girls' room sanitary and seeing that papers and waste are thrown into the containers. Each member is also assigned the care of a definite place at a specified time. In- spectors, appointed each week. check to see that each member carries on her work satisfactorily. In order to provide entertaimnent during the club period, a baseball team was formed of which Evelyn Allen has been elected captain. L, . Boys' Sanitary Oilicer Club A very important service is rendered to the school by the members of the Boys' Sanitary Officer Club, who meet in room 308, under the supervision of Mr. Harold Huxham. The aim of this club is to keep the interior of the school in a sanitary and healthful condition. This club is composed of one or more members from each home room, with the exception of First-semester seventh graders. These members, like the members of other clubs, hold regular business meetings during the Hrst part of their club periods. These meetings are conducted by their officers who include Lewis Mueller, president, and Alex Pranis, vice president this year. They discuss unusual situations and other business affairs, as they present themselves, during this part of the meeting. But after settling these matters, they spend the remainder of their time in recreation. The boys of the Boys' Sanitary Officer Club can be identihed by the band of blue and orange which they wear. .vi.rIy-four 1934 Reporters' Club One of Roosevelt's most interesting clubs is the Reporters' Club, whose purpose it is to create an interest for and give practice in news writing and journalism. The staif consisted of editor in chief, Roger Porterg assistant editors, Vera Friberg and Louise Gardnerg managing editor, Pat johns, boys' sports editor, Harold Listong girls, sports editor, Barbara MacDonald, literary editor, jack Priceg advertising manager, ,lack Porterg humor editor, Gordon Gerber, exchange editor, Frances Xkfhiteheadg club editor, Gladys Chockleyg and adviser, Miss Elizabeth McGuire. The officers of this enterprising publi- cation were Vera Friberg. president, Louise Gardner, secretary, Roger Por- ter, treasurer, and Dorothy Rodwell, program chairman. A play entitled Haifa You Seen Red was presented by this club during the last semester. This play was related to a play formerly presented, and the relation tended to make the latter play even more interesting. Roger Porter was starred as Red, a typical boy full of mischief and boyish desires, while Pat Johns enacted the part of Red's charming little sweetheart, and Kathryn Liddell was excellent as Red's youngest sister, Letty. The roles of Mr. and Mrs. Simms, Red's parents, enacted by Jack Price and Audrey Jane VVagner, were very well done. Louise Gardner in the role of Ione, Red's older sister, was quite alluring. The outstanding members of this club were Roger Porter, Audrey jane XVagner, Vera Friberg, Gladys Chockley, jack Porter, Louise Gardner, and Pat johns. Some of last semester's outstanding club members were Roseann Cox, .lack Heath, and Tom Carrico. The members of this club, by adding their contributions to the school paper, Teddy.: N mm, served as well as entertained the students of the school by their help in the publication of the paper. Camera Club The Camera Club under the supervision of Mr. Annis met in room 312. The personnel of the club included John Mackey, Robert Malone, Eugene Severson, Roger Atkinson, Elaine Crow, Paul VVantz, Dale Skelreed, Sydney Little, Robert Burns, Frank Firella, Robert Spooner, Brownie Adamitis. Margaret Veroni, and Dick Nelson. Their aim was to make and take pictures more successfully. The so called dark room was the room in which all of the films were developed. In this room there was one light which burned continually. This light glowed into a dark box. XVhen developing films, a red light was fre- quently used in place of the white. One or the other of these lights, however, was all that could be used during the process. The special activity of the club during the last semester was to gather and mount snapshots for the Yearbook, a service which has been faithfully rendered by this club for several years. sixty-five R O O S E V-E L T Writers' Club john Early, Bert McClenegh:in, Adella Lnhman, Marian VVhite, Cecilia XVeis, Miss Clark CAdvisei'J, Marguerite Reese, Phoebe Gustafson, Thedn Jordon, Charles Smith, Herbert Beckington. Ruth Ditto, Henrietta Zamhrowski, Mary Jane Anderson, Alice Vllillsey, Florence Hall, Geraldine Mar- quardt, Marvis Ann Raverty. Barbara Eder, Paul Gibson, Arthur Dnree, Jean Delong. The Yearbook Clubs VVhen it was assured last semester that there would be a Yearbook this year, three new clubs were created to become directly responsible for the venture. These were to be called the Art Club, the Humor Club, and the VVriters' Club. The first one was made up of pupils with unusual ability in design and artistic skill. They were super- vised by Mrs, Bessie Dougherty who, with Miss Eva Giffen, has charge of art work at Roosevelt. The second one, under the advisership of Miss Dorothy Blackburn, in- cluded pupils who were clever with words or ideas. They were recommended by English teachers. The last group, the Xdlriters' Club, were chosen by Miss Esther Clark, the sponsor and general chairman of the Yearbook committee, upon recommendation by Eng- lish teachers. These clubs were assisted by the Camera Club, which each year has con- tributed some interesting pages of snapshots. To the Art Club must go the credit for the attractive designs and division pagesg to the Humor Club, for the four pages of fun and laughterg and to the VVriters' Club, for the stories about the home rooms and clubs. which they collected and prepared for publication. sixty-six 1 9 3 4 Humor Club james Scverson, Elma Fransen, Elwyn Bailey, Barbara Szilishury, XYarrl 'I'l1ompson, Betty XVils0n, Cynthia Schofield, John Sin-wenie.

The eighth-grade members of the club under the supervision of Miss Blanche Scone met in room 223, while the ninth-grade members under the supervision of Miss Bertha Morse met in room 217. The membership of each division was approximately twenty-five or thirty, but enrollment was not permanent as members were transferred to special interest clubs when they had shown improvement in English. The procedure of the club was as follows: The first part of the period was given over to practice in grammar and punctuation exercisesg during the latter part of the period pupils were allowed to do special work for the English teacher, such as copying themes, making up work in which they were behind or had failed, or studying a special phase assigned by the English teacher. Pupils who had not made the required number of book reports were given permission to use the entire period for this work. Perhaps the greatest value of the club was its uupopularity, although it served its original purpose well. Penmanship-Spelling Club The Penmanship-Spelling Club under the direction of Miss Sullivan met in room 215. Pupils were sent to this club to improve their penmanship and spelling, or both. As soon as their work showed an improvement, they were returned to their selected club. The original club numbered thirty-two. During the first half of the period, the Palmer Method of penmanship was practiced. Then a one-hundred word spelling list was mastered, and everyone wrote the words in his best form. The muscular and arm movements were those taught by the Palmer Method. Mind-muscle co-ordination was a high point of stress. Pupils learned the proper position of the fingers and hands when writing. Emphasis was placed on the uniformity of slant, height, and spacing. Short stories pertaining to these lessons were read to the class to make their work more interesting. This is the first time that this combination has been attempted at Roose- velt, but it appears to have been a complete success. sixty-eiglzt 1934. Mathematics Opportunity Club The purpose of the Mathematics Opportunity Club was to enable the pupils who, through absence, had fallen behind in their class work to make up their work and to care for pupils naturally slow in mathematics. Miss Alice Nolan was the sponsor of this club which was composed of twenty-one members who met in room 304B during the regular club periods. The club period was entirely a work period, the pupils spending their time on the lessons assigned by the regular teacher and receiving help only when necessary. Nine pupils were able to attain a grade of C the first quarter and were transferred to the clubs of their choice. A quarterly grade of C was the first necessity for leaving the club. iumrrv 2 2 Social Science Opportunity Club One of the outstanding advantages of the Social Science Opportunity Club was the opportunity it provided for handling individual differences as they appeared. Pupils learned to use different types of history books and developed habits of study. The club had an average enrollment of thirty members. It had a three-fold purpose: To help pupils who had been absent make up work, to enable pupils who had special topics prepare the work in an atmosphere of study, and to give special attention to boys and girls who were unable to keep up with their regular class work. Catch up and keep up was the slogan of this club. If the regular classroom teacher felt that the pupil's work in social science had improved, the pupil was dismissed and allowed to join a special- interest club. The aim at all times was to teach the pupils how to study. Miss Ryan was the sponsor of this club. sixty-fiirze ROOSEVELT Woodworking Club Old boxes, pieces ot wood, odds and ends, cigar boxes, orange crates, and the like we1'e collected by members of the XVoodworking Club this past semester, as each fellow had to furnish his own material. Wfhat those boys did with it under the capable leadership of Mr. Marion Balsley was almost unbelievable. In one instance. a table and four tiny chairs were made for five cents. The depression problem. as far as furniture production is concerned. seemed to be solved. Mr. Balsley explained that this was a club and not a class in any sense of the term, for each member had to choose an individual project and work it out independently, according to his own ideas. The mem- bers, who were skilled in the use of shop tools, found club periods too few in number and too brief. ln some cases they started such ambitious projects that Mr. Balsley had to help out so that they could finish in the required time. The club had officers who took charge of any business that came before the group. The president was Hfilliam Kelley of room 313g the vice president was Paul Lindsay of room 202g and the secretary was Roger Larson of room 220. The Wfood XVorkers Wie had an interesting time this past semester. Any boy, who likes to use his hands as well as his head, should join this interesting group sometime. E Stamp Club Miss Edith Stewart sponsored a group of boys and girls this past semester who were interesting because they all had a hobby. People who have hob- bies are always more interesting than those who do not. In this case the hobby was stamps. Club members learned much about all kinds of stamps: they became familiar with stamp termsg they acquired, at cost, cachets which were special cancellations. commemorating such events as the laying of the corner stone of the post office and first flights instead of issuing special stamps for the occasion and first-day covers. The club elected officers who conducted the business meetings which occupied the first part of each club period. Howard Xafilke was the president this last semesterg Bob McGill. the secretaryg and Douglas Fraley, the treasurer. Many members of the club now have in their own possession stamps which would make any stamp collector envious. For example, john Blake owns a Persian gold rimmed stamp valued at tive dollarsg Jeanne Burehell has two 1855 British stamps. one valued at four dollars and the other one at two and a half dollarsg Howard Xafilke has an 1895 Guam overprint in his collec- tiong George Crawford possesses a complete set of Trans-Mississippi issue, valued at about forty-two dollars when unused and at about thirty-five dollars when used. NVhen the townspeople held their Stamp Exhibit, the club journeyed down to the old llloruzng Sim' building to feast their eyes upon the excellent speci- mens there. sefven-ty 1934 'Sewing Clubs There were two sewing clubs at Roosevelt this year. The ninth-grade group met with Miss Millie Knott in room 3163 the eighth-grade with Miss lrlolmberg in room 317. The ninth-grade girls spent most of the club periods sewing. A few were spent on the playground. Irene Rockwell was captain of the baseball team. In sewing Miss Knott wanted each girl to make an article, which she would enjoy making and find useful when she finished it. Club oliicers for this group were the following: president, Kathryn Rose: vice president, Marjorie Monahang and treasurer and secretary, Irma Pontius. The eighth-grade club went in for athletics on a grander scale, for they organized two baseball teams. The captain of one was Margaret Perrone and of the other, Marcia Bogardus. During periods spent inside, they made handwork of the crocheted and embroidered variety. Club oliicers for this group during the past year included Mavis Sutton. president: Edith Hoffman. vice president, and Ruth Carman, secretary. .iTx,f..flQis.,c-wifi -1-'24 Art Handcraft Club Many students in art, who have little or no time to give to it as a subject, found the Art Handcrait Club an interesting, delightful Friday afternoon club. This past semester Miss Eva Gitlfen sponsored the group, while Mrs. Bessie Dougherty had charge the first semester. Thirty-eight eight and ninth-grade pupils joined the club and organized themselves into many work- ing groups. There was one group that worked on leather, making pocket- books, belts, and the like: another did sketching, using group members for study: and a third group spent its time making designs for card table covers. All of it was very interesting and resulted in a fine display. First-semester oiiicers were Elaine Crowe, president, Marjorie Farn- ham, vice presidentg and Beulah Hall, secretary. Second-semester officers for the Art Handcraft Club were the following: president, Nancy Hobson, vice president, Patty Porter: treasurer, Ted Tremulisg first secretary, Alys Ruebyg second secretary, Morris Guirlg and reporter, Patty Kelly. .rc'vc1zfy-one ROOSEVELT Assemblies-1933134 The assembly in the junior high school grew very directly from a similar activity in the college. There are many definite objectives underlying the assembly, the most important ones being, however, the development of self- expression, the Widening and deepening of the pupils' interests, and the intel- ligent promotion of patriotism. This year brought many delightful assemblies, rich in entertainment as well as in original objectives. September 20, 1933 ....

The membership the first semester averaged eighty- fiveg the second semester, seventy-five. This is not an organized clubg no officers a1'e chosen and no business transacted by the group at large. Miss Lucille Payne and Miss Maxine Smith are the sponsors and do everything physically possible to make everything pleasant, quiet, and conducive to study. Many excellent source books and references are available to pupils who use the library. Among the outstanding ones are the following: lffforld Book, Compton's E-ixryvlopcdia, Hook of K n.0'zt'Ic'dgr, Lincoln Library, and l-l l10's H7110 -in Alrlerira. Many new books were added to the library shelves this year, eighty of which were books of fiction. Outstanding on this list were Digging in the South- west by Ann Axtell Morris, S011 of flu' Sword by Mirza, and l'Vind from Sfmin by Aspinwall. These were all books selected by the committee that makes the choices for the junior Literary Guild, of which Roosevelt is a member. For worthy use of leisure time, reading is perhaps the most valuableg that is, if it is reading of worth-while books. If outside assignments are too long to be finished in study hall, the Study Hour Club is a wise choice for boys and girls. I 5 llll i- Auditorium Classes The auditorium classes were made up of 7B pupils. Each class had an enrollment of approximately one hundred twenty pupils. Miss Long, Miss McGuire, and Miss VVhiting supervised the music and dramatics which were presented in an informal manner in these classes. Health and good citizenship, in their various phases pertaining to school life, were studied and discussed. An occasional talk by a professional man or woman made these programs most interesting and vital. Unusual pupil talent was often discovered in the auditorium class. Numer- ous musical programs offered an opportunity to those who were musically inclined to develop individual ability. The work in creative dramatics not only allowed self expression. but encouraged initiative and originality. The standard of discipline for the auditorium was that of any courteous assembly. The same freedom was allowed and the same attention was de- manded as was expected in any cultured audience. The groups were governed by parliamentary lawg and the officers, a chairman and a secretary who had been elected by the students, had complete charge. As the keynote of auditorium work was pupil activity, the programs were varied but not indefinite. All activity was planned for the attainment of in- telligent group behavior and effort, self expression, school spirit, and general discipline, se'Ucnfy-four 1934 V ,, Yi , Leading characters in Tin' Prinrc of Przidlezzr were Judith Carlson, Jean Carson, Harwood Catlin, Betty Delehanty, George Rubin, Vera Friberg, Jefferson Crawford, Wfilliam Murray. Russell Anderson, and Mildred Spainhower. The Operetta-Dramatics Club The Dramatics Club of the hrst semester became the Operetta Club the second se- mester. They were under the supervision of Miss Fredriksen and Miss Wliitiitg. The project of the first semester included two plays entitled Thr Stvfrn Prince hy Totheroh, and At the liomitnin. During the second semester a delightful operetta in two acts, entitled The Prince of I'cn'dIer,t and written by Sarah Grames Clark and Boyceson Treharne was presented by seventy of the club members. This was a story of a charming Princess of Bellaire who, caring little about birthdays, celebrated hers as a royal duty. Because she disliked par- ties and social gatherings, she sought adventure and excitement. The great Major Boobo's arrival. to announce the coming of his Prince, broke some of the monotony. The Prince came to seek the Princess's hand in marriage. A jolly peddler further helped to bring happiness to the solemn kingdom. All except the Prince and Dame Doodles were won by his smile. Confusion ensued as the plot thickened. Finally. the Peddler and the Princess straightened things out to the satisfaction of all. ' The officers of the club the past semester were Russell Anderson, presidentg Lu- cille Gardner, vice president: Betty Delehanty, secretary, and Shirley Edgar. treasurer. Proceeds from the plays and the operetta were placed in the cyclorama and Yearbook funds. sr vcnIy-five R O O S E V E LT Boys' Glee Club In the Boys, Glee Club this past semester boys interested in group sing- ing were offered an opportunity to discover and develop their musical talent. They learned to appreciate harmony, and those, whose work warranted it, were encouraged to continue their musical education. As soon as the boys enrolled, they were placed on probation. W'hen their voices were not satisfactory, they were given permission to choose another club. Although sight reading was not stressed, a true pitch and a good quality were of great importance. Club periods were spent in practice. The Glee Club made a number of public appearances the past year. On April 19 they delighted the eight-grade assembly with their program, which included the selections, A Grcciing, Tlzafs H-'lzvrc My Maury Gors, and a Comjicld Mr'dIr'y. First-semester olficers were the following: Frederick Scully, president! Chester Gayman, vice presidentg Paul Gibson, secretary. Second-semester officers were the following: joe Lozdoski, president, john Borno1', secretary. joe Lozdoski served as pianist for the club rehearsals and programs most efficiently, Billy Gould, Raymond Fuca, and John Bornor were the outstand- ing soloists of the group. Mr. Edgar VanBarriger was club sponsor. He has had supervision of the club since its beginning. Much of the interest and line spirit of co-operation shown by the club is due to his leadership. Girls' Chorus The Girls' Chorus served much the same purpose for the girls of Roose- velt who are interested in music as the Boys' Glee Club did for the boys. The club met in room 220 with Miss Margaret Long, the sponsor. The group was organized and used the First portion of club period for business affairs. Margaret Titus was presidentg Barbara Richie, vice presi- dentg and Marian Schmelzer, secretary-treasurer. The business meeting was followed by vocal or instrumental solos, two, three, or four, which gave each girl a chance to show her ability. During the rest of the period, group singing was carried on. Once each semester club members and the sponsor enjoyed a social time together. At such times games were played and stunts given so that a gen- eral good time was the outcome. The theme song of this joyful group was none other than The lfV0rld Is ffyflffill-g f0l'fl1l' S1m1'i.rc. XVith such they sang themselves through a delightful semester together. If any girl wishes to enjoy the club period on Friday, this club should interest her greatly. .rrvvcnfy-si.r 1934 Top row: John Burch, Robert Ferguson, Lowen Shearer, Ralph Groves, 'Philip DelVecchio, Clarence O'Donnell, VVilliam Murray, Bob lVallin, jack Martin, Roger Atkinson, Robert Harvey, Fred Janssen, Raymond Douglas, Bill Puls, Paul Nolte, Stanley Young, Robert Pickering, Geoffrey Dreibusch, Dorian Parker, Lester Janssen, Tom Mazzola, Kenneth Morris, Roy Stoner, Robert Skeels, Mr. Elmquist CDirectorJ.

Roosevelt Band Under the able direction of Mr. Allen Elmquist, the Roosevelt band ranked among the best of its kind in Illinois this past year. The band, which made no public appearances three years ago, took part in thirty or more such this year. There were concerts, broad- casts, assemblies, and the like. For organization purposes the band had three sections: the seventh-grade or begin- ners' band, the eighth-grade band, and the ninth-grade or advanced band. In April ninety boys selected from the Lincoln and Roosevelt bands went to Freeport, Illinois, to compete in the Northwest District Contest. These boys financed this project themselves. They won a first division rating in that section which was required to give Dream Ship by Delamater. The selected numbers they presented were The Hermit of KiIdare, an overture by Holmes, and Triumphant, a concert march by Olivadoti. Jack VanDuyn of room 216 won a first-divisional rating in the drum section with his solo, the Pie Eyed Piper. On May IS, the Roosevelt bands delighted a large audience in the school auditorium. The program was presented in four sections. The eighth-grade band played first, giving the following numbers: Forest Preserve, a march by Chcnette: Peaceful Valleys, a novelty number featuring the trombones: and The Grand Canyon, an overture. The advanced band followed them, playing On the Alert, a nirch by Goldmang and the fol- lowing selections from the Suite Espagno1e by Fulton: Bolero-Guadalajarau: a valse, f'Quesada g and a march, Palm:-ncia. The seventh-grade band then gave a march, Han- over g and an overture, La Petite, both by Kiefer. The climax came when the District Contest band appeared to play the winning selections. The increased size and interest promises a great future for Roosevelt's band and its leader. seventy-se'vcn v x l . X f exh- ,-1, X.k X x ROOSEVELT ' 1 1 ' 'Vi' 'I 'MX' , fi.

Theodore Roosevelt Junior High School Orchestra The orchestra since its organization a decade ago has shown constant improvement. Today it is ranked among the best of its kind. Under Mr. Bornor's direction, the group has learned to appreciate good music as well as play it. Favorites for the past semester included The Hungarian Dance, Melody in F, VVedtling March from .7l'Illf.Tll1I1'lllt'I' Niiglitlr Drram, and Barcarolle from Tolar of Hoffman. The combined orchestra of Roosevelt and Lincoln appeared before the Rotary Club one luncheon period last semester. The massed orchestras gave an excellent performance before members of the Mendelssohn Club recently. On February Z7 at the Lincoln gymnasium the orchestras of Roosevelt and Lincoln gave another delightful COIICCFL. Parents and friends of the boys and girls were enthusiastic about the entertainment. For the past year Henry Coretz of room 217 has served as concert master over the orchestra of seventy-nine members. Mr. Bornor, to whom much credit is due for his excellent leadership, is member of the committee for the selection of material for the all- state orchestra at the University of Illinois. svwxrry-eiglxt 1 9 3 4 Science Club ' . The Science Club was one of the peppiest clubs in the school. Every Friday the forty members met in room 309 where they held their meetings under the super- vision of Mr. NVise. On alternate Fridays they remained inside. At these meet- ings some club member gave an interesting account of a topic pertaining to science or Mr. XVise performed an experiment. This he explained as he went along in an interesting, helpful way. The outdoor meetings usually took the members on a jaunt to some factory or place of interest in Rockford. Club officers were the following : Jack Van Duyn, president, john-Crumb. vice presidentg Frederick Holly, secretary. Club members this past semester were Philip DelVecchio, Paul Scharfenberg, Virgil lVilson, leVilliam NVoodruFf, Her- be'rt Hough, Xvilfred Swinbank, -Tack VanDuyn, Elliott Mayfield, Marvin Graff, Frederick Holly, Arthur jones, Richard Philipson, Harold Fort.

There were thirty members in the group this year. Mem- bers used the first part of the club period for business meetings, at which time Olive Wfilliams of room 215 acted as president, Rose Liberatori of 202 as vice president, Bernice Domkoski of 223 as secretary, and Natalie Bordanaro of 223 as treasurer. Barbara Cooling of 217 was reporter of club news. Business and pleasure were intermingled in the affairs of the club. They have been extremely busy of late typing copy for the school paper. They found the five- minute accuracy tests which they had from time to time proved valuable practice for this more important part of their work. They found time to play a little lxiseball,-however, and organized a team for that purpose. St. Patrick's Day gave them an opportunity to stage a party which was something to talk about. One of the games called for designs which members ran up on their typewriters in a given period. f This club's work was interesting and valuable. sevwzfy-:zine R O O S E V E L T Airplane Club The members of the Airplane Club met with the sponsor, Mr. Lloyd Wfood, each Friday afternoon in room 99. A boy had to be a ninth grade pupil and be good at delicate handwork before he was eligible to this club. Again the membership was limited in number to twenty-five. Mr. VVood gave them instructions on the construction of model airplanes. It was the boys' work, then, to follow these instructions carefully and to do what they did well. The beginners started by making stick modelsg later, the scale modelsg and at last, solid models. The lasttwo kinds were fashioned after original planes. Mr. VVood reported that a number of boys, who had enjoyed the Airplane Club at Roosevelt in past years and who were now at senior high school, had organized a similar club there and had gone in for a detailed study of air- planes and aviation. -.. N. First Aid Club The past semester the twenty-four members of the First Aid Club met in room ll6. Miss Nellie Hanstrom, the school nurse, was the club sponsor. Pupils in the club were given training in how to act in a calm, cool manner in time of accident or illness. They were also taught to be helpful to those who need their assistance and to do all that they can to lessen accidents at school and home. Much time was spent in study, discussion, and practice of essen- tial rules. Last year the club members visited the Rockford and Swedish-American Hospitals, where they were taken through the important rooms such as the operating rooms, the anasthetic rooms, sterilizing, and x-ray rooms. Equip- ment, instruments, and supplies in these rooms were explained to them by the superintendent of nurses. The club thought the operating rooms and the laboratory were the most interesting. Several specimens that were being mounted were shown to them and explained. Club officers for the first semester were the following: president, Dan Ueverg vice president, Thelma Carrg secretary, Phyllis Huttong treasurer, Irene Rockwell: sergeant, at arms. June Dewey. Officers for the second semester included the following: Robert Mallon, president, Margaret Mikkle- son, vice presidentg Ellen Perry, secretaryg Phyllis Dever, treasurer, and Marie Cox, sergeant, at arms. ciglily 1934 Girls' Hiking Clubs At Roosevelt the past semester there were two hiking clubs. Mrs. Gladys VVarren had charge of the junior group, which held its meetings in room 218 on Fridays when inclement weather kept members from going out. Most club periods, however, they journeyed to some interesting factory or place of interest in or near Rockford. On their Friday jaunts they became ac- quainted with such places as the Bell Telephone company, the first station, the post office, and many interesting educational exhibits. They made trips to some of Rockford's dairies and factories, too. An occasional club period was given over to recreation at which time they played baseball at some neighboring park. VVhen it was impossible to go out, they held business meetings and played games or told stories. Club officers included Catherine Klinnick, president, Verna VVard, vice presidentg and Katherine Ryan, secre- tary. Officers for the second semester were Ardeth Engebretson, president, Lois Burd, vice president, and Frances Zambrouski, secretary. Over the senior group Miss Lillian Reitsch had charge. This group met in room 306B for any indoor meetings. A program very similar to that of junior hikers was followed. They played games and told storiesg now and then they joined the Swimming Club members in the poolg and once they engaged in a spelling contest with members of Student Council. The first- semester group had a splendid Christmas party with much interesting enter- tainment and plenty of refreshments. Officers for the senior group this past semester were Bruna Ciarpaglini, presidentg Lillian Molay, vice presidentg josephine Cascio, secretary: and Dorothy Garland, club reporter. Each club this semester had a membership of forty-one. Mrs. lNar1'en and Miss Reitsch have done much to popularize these clubs. Boys' Hiking Clubs There were two hiking clubs this past year for the boys as for the girls. These clubs were very popular with a large number. The eighth-grade club was sponsored by Mr. Raymond james and met in room 100 on Fridays. The ninth-grade group met with Mr. Thomas Bjorge in room 109. The eighth-grade group did not organize, but the ninth-grade did. Officers for the past term included jack XVerner, president, and Robert Bush, secretary. Membership in the eighth-grade division included ten SB boys and twenty- nine SA boys. The ninth-grade club had a membership of twenty-four, thir- teen who were in 9B and eleven in 9A. The purpose of both clubs was much the same. Members wanted to become better acquainted with one another, they wanted to spend club peri- ods together out-of-doors in games, hikes in and about Rockford, and they wished to visit places of interest in the city. Much general information about Rockford was gained by members on these jaunts. eiglzly-one R O O S E V E L T Girls' Swimming Club . The Girls' Swimming Club was organized a few years ago to accom- modate the girls who were qualified swimmers but needed more time for practice. To be eligible, a girl had to be recommended by her swimming or gymnasium instructor and had to pass certain specified tests as well. The club period was given over to playing water games, practicing life- saving methods. swimming contests of various kinds, and perfecting strokes in swimming and diving. Once in a while club members spent time in the gymnasium or on the playground, playing volley ball, basket ball, or baseball. Now and then thev had contests with other clubs or invited members of other groups to join them in the pool. One of the most interesting events in which they participated was the annual swimming class demonstrations. The swimmers' club and classes scheduled this to demonstrate many of the interesting things they learned. Parents and friends were invited and enjoyed it very much. lllrs. Helen Flood was the sponsor of the Girls' Swimming Club. First- semester officers for the group included the following: Helen Skopinski, presidentg Geraldine Simonds, secretary: and jennie Saudargas, treasurer. All the first-semester officers were from room 309. Second-semester officers were Maxine Gritzmacher, president: Irene Van Xkiie, vice president: .lean Foster, secretary: and Marjorie McCrae, treasurer. Betty McGill and Irene Van VVie were property girls for both semetsers. illlfl lllltilllllij llzluqur funn! Boys' Swimming Club About thirty boys were members of the Boys' Swimming Club this j'CEU'. Most of them were ninthegrade pupils, whose work in swimming was out- standing. The membership this year included Clifford Pederson. Torbeu Floor, Joe Newman, Albert and Richard Carlson, VVZIITCII Denney, Ray Frint. Burton Miller. Junior Muder, Xkfallace Moline, Gerald Crane, Robert Har- vey, Gerson Amdur, Darrell Downer, Wlilliam Holby, john Kizevic. Daniel and Raymond Gutzwiller, Ralph VVolfe, Robert Allen, John Goral, Morris Manalli, -loe Mroz, Vllayne julian, Bill Dettman. Eugene lVells, Don Xlfade, Adolph Heinroch, Ray VVilinski, jack Altekruse, and Don Spear. The club for the following year is generally chosen from eighth-grade classes. :Xfter the swimming meet with Lincoln, which Roosevelt lost this year by one point, the older boys spend their time helping the young boys improve their style and technique. Many of the boys in the Swimming Club have made enviable records for themselves when they went to high school. Mr. Harold Ryan, one of the teachers of physical education, was the club sponsor. eighty-two 7 ER WMV? WE DEWEEEWEW' I ' nooaevc LT .JUNIOR HIGH sc:-zoom.

To help build for each child a strong body, a clean mind, a happy attitude toward life, an understanding of good sportsmanship, and the value of good citizenship proved a happy and profitable task for each director in this department. Throughout the school year a vigorous program of varied activities was carried on in physical, health, and recreational activities. As much time as possible was spent out-of- doors on the playground. Here the program was mostly recreational, although careful supervision insured the development of an understanding of the fundamentals of all games and skills. In the gymnasium there was a full program of physical activity, involv- ing marching and marching tactics, posture work, tumbling, pyramids, stunts, folk dancing, rhythmical games, lower and higher organized games, motor ability, and achievement tests. Then the laws of health and sanitation, with health talks at opportune times, played a most important part in the program. An attempt was made to instill in each child an appreciation of intelligent care of the body. Swimming must not be overlooked. for it was a favored activity. All eight-and ninth-grade pupils received instruction in strokes, diving, stunts, water safety, and water games. The pool was open two afternoons a week after school for recreation, to make up time, to improve in ability, or to pass achievement tests. Intramural play time attracted hundreds of boys and girls this year. Seasonal sports were played under the supervision of an instructor and under the leadership of a captain, elected by the participating group. Speed ball, touch football, soccer. volley ball, basket ball, playground ball, swimming, horseshoes, track, long ball, kick ball, line soccer, and nine-court basket ball were used in intramural competition. Teams were entered in a particular sport as home-room teamsg this organization proved very satisfactory. In the fall the girls' volley ball championship was captured by the first semester 305 girls, with Helen Shopinski as captain. Basket ball, after forty-tive games had been played by competing teams, was won by room 224. Evelyn Allen was the capable leader for this group. Springtime brought the favorite of sports, playground ball. Here the battle seemed most keen. Thirty-nine teams played according to schedule. The spring swim- ming meet, with Betty Magill, Irene Van VVie, Maxine Gritzmacher, Jean Boyer, Kathryn Ross, Shirley Edgar, and Laoes Hemenway representing the 9A class, looked very much like a championship for the upper-lass girls. The track honors were the final event of the season in a huge playdayl Roosevelt won by a big margin. The boys carried on an intensive interscholastic program with the Abraham Lincoln junior High School. This season football competition was abolished. The swimming meet with Lincoln proved to be a close and hard-fought battle. Taking the last event by a close margin, Lincoln carried away the championship with a one-point lead. Daniel Gutzwiller, Robert Allen, Robert Harvey, Wayne Julian, Jack Boettcher, Robert Iepsen, and Gerson Amdur presented a fine brand of competition. Much could be said about the boys who came through the basket ball series with Lincoln and brought the 1933-34 championship to Roosevelt. Track and playground baseball teams trained hard. Many titles for Roosevelt were captured. Mr. Ryan, Mr. Schoonmaker, and Mr. Huxham coached in these respective activities and deserve our thanks and appreciation for their interest and their untiring efforts to develop fine teams. An intramural program for boys in swimming, basket ball, horseshoes, playground ball, and track was carried on. Last year twenty-two teams took part in the basket ball games. John Goral, Alex Pranis. Sam Ferruggia, joe Mroz, and Maurice Manalli of room 223 were winners. Swimming honors went to the 9A class. Playground ball, with twenty- four teams competing, was included as part of the program. Through this organized plan of play, it is hoped that every child has made this motto his: Keep the body in strength and vigor, so that it may be able to obey and execute the orders of the mind. eighty-fi'Ue I2CJCJSI31fEILfF The Calendar SEPTEMBER , 1-1-Girls' swim periods after school begin. 18-Boys swim Mondays and Wlednesdays. 25-Girls intramural volley ball begins--20 teams.
