School is a golden gate of opportunity and hope to the great world of tomorrow. Here boys and girls find and build ideals, discover and develop abilities, catch new enthusiasms and interests, learn how to conserve and use strength and energy, and become independent co- operative members of a democratic society. Because they have learned how to use the tools of today, they will contribute much to zestful, vital living in the world of tomorrow.

BERG M.A., University of Minnesota Superintendent ESSENTIALS IN EDUCATION The mastery of subject matter and the development of funda- mental skills and abilities in reading, writing, and arithmetic are necessary tools for intelligent citizenship. Equally im- portant, however, is the development of the physical, mental, social and moral qualities of a well balanced personality. Strong bodies, disciplined minds, and understanding hearts are essential in successful living. The development of these abilities and qualities may be assured through the whole hearted participation in the various activities of your daily program. Busy days make happy days, and che days that make us happy, make us wivse. SELMER H. BERG HZt Mr. Adolph H. Seise, Mr. Hugh D. Tolmie, Mr. Peter Perricone, Mr. Charles Davis, Miss Vera E.

BOARD OF EDUCATION, ROCKFORD PUBLIC SCHOOLS Members of the Board of Education of Rockford, appointed by the Mayor and certified by the City Council, have important work caring for the interests of the schools of today and building for the schools of tomorrow. These appointees are chosen to represent the city at large and serve for a term of two years. This year Mr. Carlton Welsh is president and Mrs. Marie Sheehe is secretary. Much of the work of the Board is done in committee; each commit- tee's work is important in its special way. For example, the educa- tional committee, made up of Mr. Archie Richards, chairman, and Mrs. Frank Johnson and Mr. William Engberg, has charge of educational affairs and personnel. The business and finance committee, made up of Mr. Adolph Seise, chairman and Mr. Carson Porter and Mr. Peter Perricone. has to see that necessary funds are available and are made to stretch out over the years needs. The buildings and grounds com- mittee, made up of Mr. William Schmeling, chairman, and Mrs. Marie Sheehe and Mr. Tauge Lindquist, has the responsibility of repair and building projects. All purchases of supplies and materials have to be approved by the purchasing committee, with Mr. Carson Porter, chair- man, and Mrs. David Hoffman and Mr. Adolph Seise. The Board has regular meetings held the second and fourth Monday evenings each month in the Board of Education room in the Admin- istration Building. Miss Dorothy Vaughn, Miss Angela Joyce, Assistant Principal; Mr. J. W. Welsh, Principal; Miss Frances Gustafson, Miss Eleanor Berg. THE OFFICE AT ROOSEVELT The school office at Roosevelt is the scene of activity throughout the day. In the morning before school, children flock here to get admits, permits, and the like. After school there is the inevitable checking up of the days work to be looked after. Mr. J. W. Welsh, the principal, has charge of the general plan of the work of the building. He is assisted by the supervisors of art and music, by the department heads, and by all the teachers. Miss Angela Joycet the assistant principal, has charge of disciplinary cases and of absence. Miss Hanstrom, the nurse, and Mrs. Atkinson, the truant officer, assist Miss Joyce. She also sponsors the Student Council and has supervision of the zero hour in 203 each night. In this work she is assisted by every teacher in the school. Miss Eleanor Berg, who is secretary to the principal, has charge of all the clerical work, Miss Frances Custafson, who is bookkeeper, has supervision of all mimeographing done in the school. Since last Sep- tember, Miss Berg and Miss Gustafson have had the assistance of Miss Dorothy Vaughn, who was graduated from Rockford Senior High School last June. Miss Vaughn has complete charge of telephone calls and does many of the extra tasks that fall to the lot of the office workers. H4l MR. JAMES W. WELSH M.A., University of Michigan Principal June 5, 1939 To Pupils of Roosevelt Junior High School: San Francisco's Golden Gate International Exposition and New Yorkis World Fair are displaying this year in unique and spectacular ways mankind's progress and achieve- ment in working and living together. This YEARBOOK brings to you through story and picture an accurate account of how you as pupils have worked, played. and lived togetherphere in junior high school. May this record of school life become one of your most treasured possessions. J. W. WELSH, Principal AMI, . Miss Elizabeth McGuire, B.

DEPARTMENTS OF FOREIGN LANGUAGE AND ENGLISH General language, Latin and French are included in the foreign language schedule. All classes include in the work the memorization of poems, songs and outstanding and interesting facts concerning the country and its people, grammar, translations, completion and vocabu- lary work, and oral and written assignments also are included in the daily work. English derivatives are studied and correspondence with children in foreign lands motivates many units and serves as a tie-up with the social needs of pupils. Reading, literature. oral and written composition, grammatical usage. and spelling are included throughout the weele work in each of the three required years of work in English courses. The new unit in newswriting has proved very popular and is becoming an elective with more pupils each semester. The 78 reading tests have become invalu- able aids in classifying pupils for placement and as a basis for select- ing new texts and aids for remedial work. Remedial procedures in all phases of the work are an integral part of the course, so that backward pupils make a maximum of progress in a minimum amount of time. The department co-operates closely with all other departments in the school. ll6l ll7l Miss Anna Hyland, Mr. George Fridly, M.

DEPARTMENTS OF MATHEMATICS AND COMMERCE uMathematics is the earliest of all the sciences and to this day is the most indispensable one. The new books, adopted this year, bring to each pupil the proof of this statement. They point out how the most primitive people became interested in counting and measuring and how nature and the practical arts caused the early people to develop a simple, practical knowledge of elementary mathematics. They show how it has expanded through all the ages, stress the social application of arithmetic, the importance of indirect measurement and introduce the first use sot algebraic symbols. Many facts in everyday life are expressed in magazines and daily papers by means of graphs and tables. Since the ability to interpret these demands a thorough under- standing of mathematics, the committee is now working on a program that will make mathematics a three-year required course. The commercial department offers two 'elective courses for eighth and ninth grades. Business practice gives pupils a picture of business life and the many activities that are a part of modern business. It gives pupils an opportunity to learn what openings there are in the junior commercial occupation fields and the prospects for advance- ment and development. In typing pupils are taught the use of the keyboard and parts of the machine, correct typing habits and posture. and are expected to achieve a certain degree of facility in writing as demonstrated in class projects. In typing the second semester pupils are taught to increase their ability in this skill and to apply the same for personal and practical use in all sorts of projects. Mr. Arthur C. Larson, B.

DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SCIENCE iiThat government of the people by the people and for the people shall not perish from this earth. These were the words of th immortal Lincoln at Gettysburg over three-quarters of a century ago. This also has been the aim of the social science department during the fifteen years of its existence. Now as teachers see these principles attacked on so many fronts, they again restate their doctrine of democracy and their firm belief in these principles. The success with which they have indoctrinated the boys and girls of yesterday who are now the men and women of today in believing and trusting in this form of government will be shown in their deeds and actions today. Democ- racy is on trial and is suffering defeat in many countries. For America and the fate of world democracy, it must not and shall not fail here. The school endeavors to do its share in teaching children how to live in a democracy. The American home has a grave responsibility in this matter. too. The home can teach best many lessons that the school at most can only do but second best. The old motto. l'United we stand; divided, we fall, is just as true in this important work as in every- thing else. ll8l Miss Alice Shrader, B. 5., Mr. Arthur Annis, B. 5., Head of Industrial Arts; Mr. Thomas Bjorge, B. 5., Mr. Marion Balsley :1: :3 :1: Miss Lucille Culotti, B. 5., Mr. Fred Villemure, B.

DEPARTMENTS OF HOUSEHOLD AND INDUSTRIAL ARTS The course in household arts at Roosevelt includes cooking. sewing, home arts, and elective courses in sewing and foods. The 78 classes sew holders, bags, head bands, and aprons, which they use in their 7A cooking classes. They also learn the use and preparation of foodstuffs. These cooking classes Iearn how to prepare and serve breakfasts. AH 88 girls study the home, body care, personal hygiene, first aid, leisure time activities ,and budgeting. The 8A girls make aprons, smocks, and blouses. In foods they learn to prepare small Iuncheons. The foods one and two classes learn the fundamentals of cooking and preparing meals. Girls in clothing one learn the kinds of stitches, styles, fash- ions, and patterns and they make slips, pajamas, dresses. and house- coats. In clothing two they study textiles and fibers. They make wooI skirts and silk blouses. The course in industrial arts at Roosevelt includes woodworking, auto shop, home mechanics, machine. printing, and mechanical drawing. . Woodworking deals in the making of game boards, necktie holders, and book racks. In auto shop a knowledge of the functions and the parts of a car are learned, and traffic laws and regulations are taught. Boys learn how to repair many articles at home in home mechanics. Screw drivers, hammers, and clamps are made in machine shop. The case and setting of simple forms are learned in printing. In mechani- cal drawing boys learn to write the universal language, orthographic projections, simple developments, and simple architectural problems. II9I Mr. Raymond James, M.

DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SCIENCE The question that is most often repeated by the student with an inquisitive mind is one that is accepted by the general science de- partment as a challenge. As the life of a student grows increasingly complex. he deserves to know the reasons for the numerous phe- nomena that are taking place around him. Two and one-half years of general science is offered to each pupil. During this time the pupil studies the beginning of science and scientific thought. With experience through experiment impressed upon the pupil's mind, he continues with the study of water. heat, air. weather, rocks, stars, chemistry, machines, sound, light. and electricity. The study of plants and animals and the conservation of this life is emphasized in ninth grade. The functioning of his own body as a foundation for personal and community health and the effects of alcohol and narcotics are also studied. By studying the science of everyday life. a student becomes more capable of understanding his environment and directing his own activities so as to receive the fullest benefits of life.

DEPARTMENTS OF ART AND MUSIC The work of the art department continues to enrich the experiences of boys and girls. More craft work which requires planning of form as well as the design is possible, because of many new and interesting materials available today. Art links the present with the past, be- cause from the art of early people we have been able to know much of their manner of living and their love of beauty. Besides the use of art in daily living, some painters and sculptors create beauty just for enjoyment; sometimes their works prove to be of great value to the person or nation who owns them. in junior high school pupils are particularly concerned with the enjoyment of art, the fun one may have creating it. The talented pupil may have the gift to do beauti- ful things easiiy, but it also is true that everyone has a certain talent which he may develop by use. Many boys and girls are working in Rockford today, because of their art study in junior and senior high school. The music department serves the students of the school by providing opportunities to create and listed to good music. The public has helped by responding so well to the invitations to hear the Christmas Sing .the band, and the orchestra concerts throughout the year. A few parents, teachers, and friends have joined the groups in some of the class programs. The boys and girls who are doing the actual playing and singing are the ones whose lives gain more of that which music can do for all, directly or indirectly, the expression of beauty through tone, entering lives through hearing rather than by seeing. Music opens one great avenue of enrichment in living. Mr. Harold Huxham, M. 5., Miss Helen Healey, B A., Mr. Sam W. Tracy, B. 5., Head of Department of Physical Education :3 :1: :5: Miss Kathryn Sheridan, Miss Nellie Hanstrom, R. N. DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND HEALTH uA game for everyone. and everyone in a game, is the aim of the physical education department. In order to carry out such an aim, the program is established with a wide range of activities. The activi- ties forming the program are built around the interests, needs, and capacities of the students in the seventh, eights, and ninth grades. The program of physical education is carried out in three forms, namely, swimming classes, gymnasium classes, and outdoor worke when the weather permits. The class period is spent in learning the skills, techniques, and rules of the various activities forming the program. Actual playing time is supplied by an intramural program carried on after school. The pool, gymnasium, recreation room, and outdoor facilities are in constant demand throughout the school year. Every student is engaged in some phase of the intramural program. The objectives of the physical education department are to instill an ap- preciation of good health, to encourage leadership, and to develop a good co-ordination between mind and body. There are many opportunities for leadership in the wide range of activities. The daily routine of class work requires squad leaders. responsible managers for equipment, and capable assistants to the instructor in class and intramural activities. Through actual participation, the student gradually learns to act and think simultaneously The value of a strong, healthy body and mind to the boys and girls of today cannot be overestimated. They are essential in meeting the demands of the fast-moving age in which pupils find themselves. i22i l23l Dr. E. H.

DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND HEALTH THE DISPENSARY The school nurse and doctor constantly co-operate with the physical' education department in checking each childls physical condition. Health instruction is offered by instructors in the physical education department. In addition to her work with the physical education department. teaching one class in general science, and supervising the first aid club, Miss Hanstrom is more than busy checking on pupils who come to her for aid and assistance from eight-thirty in the morning until after school. Excuses, admits, check-ups, first aid are all a part of Miss Hanstromls daily routine. During the first semester, our nurse gave 529 dressings, checked up 3,948 pupils in her office, and gave ninety-nine talks to classes. Dr. Edwin Morris, the school dentist, also makes scheduled visits to Miss Hanstromls office. Then dental check-ups on all pupils are made and reports sent home. Dr. Morris addresses classes in general science throughout the year on the need and value of oral hygiene. THE LIBRARY AT ROOSEVELT An interesting and busy place is the school library, centrally lo- cated on the third floor, where Mrs. Esther Rogers has charge as school librarian. Almost every period throughout. the. day .it serves as a ninth-grade study hall where pupils have access to refer- ence materials with which to sup- lement and enliven their work on outside assignments in many sub- jects. During these periods the librarian has the assistance of some of the classroom teachers of Roosevelt. Books of all kinds fill the spaces that line the large room. This year. through a serv- ice made possible by a W. P. A. project, many of these books have been reconditioned and appear very attractive and usable in their new covers. All materials in the library are designed and chosen to supplement classroom materials in all subjects. Work in the library gives pupils an opportunity to practice their instruction in learning to use books and libraries, which they have gained in their English classrooms. To be able to feel at home in a library and to use its facilities easily, efficiently, and intelligently go far toward making boys and girls better students and happier beings. liHalf of one's education consists in knowing where and how to get the other half. THE CAFETERIA AT ROOSEVELT Another busy and popular place at noon is the cafeteria, where more pupils come to eat lunch amid its attractive surroundings. The two lunch counters on the west and southwest corners of the room enable cafeteria attendants to serve teachers and pupils quickly and easily. Miss Lucy Normile, cafeteria director, plans all menus. These are published one week in advance and posted in each classroom, so that pupils and teachers can further expedite time and energy by making choices before they go to the lunchroom. Miss Katherine Brown is building director and checks supplies, supervises cooking and serving, and does the daily buying. Rockford housewives, who are not profes- sional cooks, serve the food daily. In this they are assisted by some thirty deserving pupils from Roosevelt, who are chosen each semester from the list of applicants. Food in the cafeteria is always attractive and nourishing. On Monday, Wednesday, and Friday pupils may buy a twenty-five cent lunch at the bargain price of fifteen cents. On other days there is always a ten-cent special, which attracts boys and girls who live on a budget and Who desire the most and best for their money. l,24i II. ABILITIES Education is not a panacea. It is not a pow- der, which, when taken by the rising generae tion, miraculously heals the ills of the body politic. We must rely on education because it is the only hope we have; but we must recog- nize its limitations, too. If education brings about change. it can do so gradually at best. Politics and not education is the architectonic social science. Politics determines the aims of the State. The aims of the State determine the aims of education. ROBERT M.

Work in the band promotes an understanding and an appreciation of music that can be gained only through long hours of individual study and group practice. The band gave willingly of its time and talent at many of the school affairs during the past year. It was an essential part of every pep meeting, held in assembly or gymnasium. It helped lead Roosevelt to victory in basket- ball, and on Thursday, April 27, 1939, gave a splendid program to a large audience of friends and parents.

ROOSEVELT'S ORCHESTRA The Roosevelt Orchestra, led by Mr. June Bornor, who has charge of the high school orchestra groups as well, ranks with the band as an outstanding musical organization not only in Roosevelt, but in Rockford Public Schools. The group has a membership at present of sixty-eight. The group studies the work of famous composers, Beethoven, Schubert, Hayden, and Tschaikowsky, as well as those of less well-known composers who have written fine marches and waltzes. The Orchestra gives gladly of its talents for the enjoyment of others. At Thanksgiving time it appeared in a program at Ellis School; in December, before the Roosevelt assemblies. As usual it will take part in the Annual Play Day to be given in May and will give a concert in late May after this book has gone to press. The money from the proceeds of the concert will be used to purchase a harp for the school. lSOJ IV.

FOOTBALL The football season was officially opened on the first day of school. A meeting of all ninthegrade boys interested in football was held at that time. Information regarding practice sessions, football fundamentals and rules, and equipment'were given to the new boys. Cards for the parents' signature and the doctor's examination were also issued. N0 actual practice was held until the cards were returned. Practice sessions were held daily after school at Garfield Park, but the practice games were played in the high school stadium. These games were usually scheduled on Thursday afternoon or on Saturday morning. The schedule included Lincoln Junior High School and the reserve teams of the Rockford Senior High School. At Roosevelt football is considered to be a preparation for the competitioh found at high school, and in this way, much of the strain and overemphaSIs caused by intense competition at this age is removed.

BASKETBALL The basketball schedule for the season 1938-39 called for ten games. The opponents of Roosevelt were Winnebago Reserves. Rockford High School light and heavy-weight reserve teams, and Lincoln Junior High School. The interest in the season was centered around the games with Lincoln for the city championship. The outlook for a championship was quite gloomy at the beginning of the series as the opponents won the first two games. Roosevelt, however, rallied to win the next three games and the championship. The fifth and deciding game was played at Roosevelt on February 17 before a capacity crowd; Roosevelt won the game by a score of 28-15. The championship was the outcome of hard work and good co-operation by the squad members. Roosevelt has been very proud of its basketball team, which never knew the meaning of the word T'quit.

The Roosevelt team was balanced and strong in all events and won first place in all events with the exception of the 40 yard free style event, won by Lehman of Lincoln. The outstanding swimmer on the Roosevelt team was Keith Wells, who took first place in both the 40 yard breast stroke and diving. The championship this year gave Roosevelt the title for the fourth consecutive year, a grand record for the school. SUMMARY 160 yard relay nfgcgsgvelte-Chriswell, lnhoff, Clark, Bassett.

The unique resulting tie score of Roosevelt with 43 points and Lincoln with 43 may never be repeated. A sum- mary shows that Roosevelt won all the field events while Lincoln won all run- ning events. Winning of the final event, the relay, provided Lincoln with suffi- cient points to tie the final score. For Roosevelt the following boys were outstanding: Bob Willis, who won the high jump and shot put; Paul Bog- donas, who won the discus throw and placed third in the hurdles; Nick De Angelo, second in the shot put and discus throw; John Fissinger, second in the 880 and third in the 440, and Gaylord Chew, second in both the iOO and 220. Of the 1938 letter winners Gaylord Chew alone remains to show up for Mr. Harold Huxham, Coach Roosevelt this season. FOLK DANCING AND TUMBLINC In folk dancing the girls learned to do folk dances of various countries. These dances express the spirit and character of the people and country which they represent. The value of folk dancing lies in its possibilities as a wholesome form of popular recreation as well as training in rhythmic move- ment. In combining folk dancing with fundamental rhythms, the depart- ment strove to develop in each girl a sense of rhythm which she will use in later life; the aim of all this work was to develop movement which is well co-ordinated, well extended, and natural. Tumbling is an exercise which appealed to every active girl. It developed courage, initiative, and perseverance; it made for an alI-ar0und develop- ment of the body; it brought out suppleness rather than strength. VOLLEY BALL, SOFT BALL, BADMINTON AND DECK TENNIS Voliey balli offered for five weeks to seventh-grade gErls and as an intra- mural sport to girls in eighth and ninth grades, took care of a large group and, when well played, it offered a great deal of enjoyment and an opportunity for team work and co-operat'on. it is a sport which giris will be able to use in later life, as volley ball is very popular in adult groups. Soft ball is another sport that is popular with both old and young. It is a game which may be played indoors as well as out; it offers opportunity for individual achievement as well as team play. It is a practical sport for large groups or small and is especially popular on outings and picnics. Badminton and deck tennis are two very popular recreational games among the girls. Like the others, they give pupils a knowledge of sports which may be used outside of school and gymnasium. i881 V.
