Lucille Bartlett Lather Camphell Hight THESE CHORS Nine 5 | —— —. Four years ago last August over one hundred untrained Freshmen enter- ed Santa Rosa High School to be molded into shaped into one of the ereat- est Senior Classes ever graduated from this school. Much of this molding was due to our faculty and to the other Senior Classes that have held sway since we have been here. But if it had not heen for that which came forth within ourselves we should have been nothing more than just a Senior Class. Our four years over we look back at the many victories and honors of our class and know that these four years have been happy and successful ones and. as graduation looms ahead of us we realize that our efforts concerning which at first may we have been somewhat skeptical have brought us satis- fying reward which will be ours forever an education. As Sophomores we were not quite so successful in track but just the same wave the seniors a mighty hard fight for first place. In the girl’s track meet in which we found that we had some fast runners, we won the honors. At the Candy sale given during this year we carried out our part well and had a good share in bringing about the suecess of the day. We shall never forget our Sophomore year, for by this time we were getting well used to the school and its customs and traditions. Durine our Junior year members of our class were taking active parts in every activity in the school and were doing well. The girls of the class again took a leading part in the eirl’s track meet which was considered one of the best ever held in the school. The boys of our class were victorious in she interclass track meet and also in the interclass baseball game. Frank Weliz and Melvin Snodgrass commanded us during this year. Among the important athletes of our class are Cliff Mor ‘ill, Tom Grace, and Staey Lee, three of the white sweater winners. Other Block ‘ S’’ men are John and Alfred Lucas, Vinton Deter, Bernard Holmes, Vernon Thomp- son, Perey Alexanderson, Carl Stroven, Frank Feliz. Others who have done much for our school are Melvin Snodgrass, ex- student Body President, Adelaide Drummond, leading lady in the operetta and Herbert Brandon hero of the Senior play. Now that we are coming to the end of our career as a class in our old Wich we look out on a new phase of our life and only hope that it will be as happy and successful as our last four years have been.

Those three short years have been crowded with much joy and some sorrow; much play and lots of study; much carefree pleasure and some serious thinking. Joyous we have been because we, as a class, have always looked on the bright side of things, sorrowful at times when we realize how rapidly our High school days are passing; playful when it was time to play and studious when the study hour came—this motto has proved its worth to us; and our earefree, pleasure at school parties or entertainments together with the moments of serious thinking when we realized that next year the responsibilities of a Senior would be ours. All these things have given us the school spirit and ““pep’’ which you always find in us. Our greatest lasting impression of our first year at High, was the bie reception held in our honor in the Annex Gymnasium. How well we ean re- inemper how frightened we were when they made us march around the room with partners, who were at least as embarrassed as we were. We had been told of many things which were to happen to us that evening, but our offi- cial welcome consisted of a large stick of striped candy which we enjoyed im- mensely. In our Sophomore year we began to make a good showing in school sports. Our boys made the basket ball, baseball, and track teams. Our girls proved their worth by winning interclass volley ball, baseball and track, Now we are ending our Junior year which has meant more to us than either of our first two years. We have been the ‘‘pepiest’’ and hardest working class at school for the last year and have excelled in the classroom and in the different sports. Our boys who have served us so well in athletics and those who will be the mainstay of the basketball, baseball, football and track teams next year are: Joe Dearing, who besides winning his block S and sweater in three different sports, is an excellent cartoonist; Bill Cowan, one of the best yell leaders the school has ever had: R. Hootman, H. Work, E. Pedersen. R. Hudson, W. Gutcher, V. Thompson and 8. MeTigue. The girls won the volley ball interclass again but lost the baseball to the Freshman All-Stars. There was no track meet this term as we have been learning to play soccer. I do not think that any more need to be said about the class of ’22. We are just a jolly big class and hope to be remembered lone after we leave in June, 722. HELEN MALLORY, ”22 Twenty-one THE ECHO opus “Well, Howard, I see you’re back from S. R. Were there many things of interest there?’ ‘It was an exceedingly interesting community, Cedric, old Chappie. Es- pecially the H. S. Very promising bunch, Cedic, old dear, especially the sec- ond year men, ’23 men, they called themselves, but I’m decidedly mistaken, Cedric, if any of them were over 18.”’ “You know, Cedric, they had a game there they called basketball. I couldn’t see any basket tho. Loop ball, I should have called it. Five boys vet out on a floor in gay-colored union suits and throw a ball the size of Augustus Caessassa’s head at a loop suspended about ten feet above the floor. S. R. had a horribly fine team. Four of the five boys were Sophmores. There was one of them, the chieftan I think they called him—no, Captain, that’s the word—who was exceedingly good. He would cast the spheroid into the air at any angle and no matter how he threw it it would always go through the loop. And there were three more of them that did horribly well.’’ ‘And there was a sport there they called track, Cedric. They had an eliptical track which the boys jolly well flew about. There was an implement there which resembled an enlarged macaroon with an iron ring around it. One Sophmore could throw it so far that it took seven bie men to throw it back.’’ “T was talking to one of the prominent members of the Sophmore class aud he told me that, remembering Germany’s late attempt to become promi- nent,, the Sophomore class was not trying to become conspicious, but, my word, Cedric, what if Germany had not tried to conquer the world? That would have been a wonderful elass. ‘You should run over to Santa Rosa next year, Cedric, and look up the class of ’23. It would be well worth your while. Well, Cheero, old Chappie.’”’ ELLSWORTH BARNET, ’23. Twenty-three fe) ap O zal aa L ke Twenty-four rr i SSS THE ECHO — eran: The class of ’24 has not had much experience, but it has showed that it | will stand as high as any. We had a hard time selecting a president, as no- body had the nerve to give a speech at the Freshmen Reception, but at last Loran Johnson aeceped the office. The reception was late, but it was all the better when it came. There was plenty of punch, and everyone enjoyed himself immensely. A cabbage dance by Nazimova (alias Ernest Baer) was received with a great deal of applause by the crowd. In athletics the girls’ class of ’24 is on the map. The upperclass girls expected the Freshman girls’ baseball team would be easy, but the latter won from the Sophmores and then played the Juniors for the Interclass championship. To say that the Juniors were surprised when the Freshmen won is putting it mildly. The girls demonstrated to the school what hard work can do. In the cross-country run the Freshman boys took second placé, beating the Sophomores and Seniors. In the Interclass track |} meet we came in last, but they showed well. We are very proud of our girls as that is very unusual for a Freshmen team to win an interclass championship. On the whole we feel that we have had a highly successful year. Being the youngest class in the school, we have made it a practice to be seen and not heard. But after this year watch our smoke!

Tt was certainly a wet world that I beheld. The rain was beating down pell-mell and the eutter’s and ear tracks were miniature Mississippis at the flood season. The dull street lamps sent out their sickly gleams through the mist of the downpour, but added no light to the dripping world. No living mortal was in sieht. Gad! What a beastly night! How I would hate to be out there! But a woman—alone and in trouble. I turned and looked at the bed. The eover’s were thrown back where I had left them in a hurry, the pillows were piled in an anviting heap, and moreover, the chills were running up and down my spine. Well, taken altogether, the bed was the most enticing thine I could see. so I jumped into it, pulled the cover’s over my head and tried to resume my slumbers, but my conscience troubled me, trying to tell me it was a gentleman’s place to help a lady in distress. The clock, chiming twelve, added the last drop in the bucket and I arose, dressed, and hurried to the station. cursing the rain, vet with my innate adventurous spirit at its highest.

OF Rhudden Manor Long years ago, in 1794, to be exact, Alee Rhudden came to America from nowhere in particular, and had a beautiful manor house built in Kentucky. He brought with him a great deal of silver plate. For this plate he had a special vault built. The plate was carefully kept and some costly additions were added to it. Now, in 1913 Jonathan Rhudden, grandson of Alee, who with some aged negro servants lived at the manor, was in danger of losing the plate. In Alec’s will it was said that Jonathan should not leave the manor for more than one month, or the entire fortune would go to an unknown relative. This threatened loss was starting in this way. Jonathan Rhudden guard- ed the silver himself, and each day he would set a small portion of it on an enormous sideboard. This sideboard was evidently hollow. One day, as Jonathan was putting away the silver, he suddenly noted that a favorite piece was gone. The’servants and Jonathan hunted everywhere, but the piece could not be found. This itself would have been of no consequence if two more pieces hadu’t disappeared the next day. At about the same time a dissatisfac- tion was manifested by the negroes. This arose from the fact that a negro had seen a ghost. Jonathan called him in. ‘‘Rastus,’’ he said, ‘‘what is the thing that you saw? ‘‘Golly! mastah, it was about fawty feet high, and t’ was white.”’ “‘Now, listen,’’ said Jonathan, ‘‘I want you to keep still about this thing, something is wrong here.’ But all that Jonathan could do did not still the fear of the ghost. Be- cause of the fear of the negroes and his natural superstition, something that resembled fear was instilled in Jonathan. Things went along allright for two days. On the night following the sec- ond day, Jonathan awoke, and to his immense surprise and consternation he discovered near his bed a white thing resembling a human being, only much taller and larger. Jonathan, never very brave, fainted, and never awoke till morning. He was so shaken the next day that when he discovered more silver gone, he paid very little attention to it. His fear of the ghost was so great in the evening that he finally decided to send for a detective. Thirty-one ee ee des EI His name was John Sharpe. His Two days later the detective arrived. reputation proclaimed him to be a man of no fear. to see him, and quickly acquainted him with the facts of the case. He took a careful inventory of the silver and took care Jonathan was overjoyed He immedi- ately set to work. of it himself, Although he earefully watched the sideboard, the silver dis- appeared. Whatever conclusions he came to about this he kept to himself. The third day after his visit John Sharpe was awakened by a scream. coming from Jonathan’s room. He quickly crossed to that room to find Jonathan half dead with fright. ‘(What is the matter?’’ quickely exclaimed John Sharpe. “The Ghost,’’ gasped Jonathan aghast, “on that wall just now— and it changed from white to blood red in just a second.” This of course gave John Sharpe food for much thought. He was rudely awakened from his reflections by hearing Jonathan, never very courageous, say, ‘Hereafter you must sleep in my room, Bring in your bed right new. ’’? And despite all John Sharpe could do, Jonathan stood firm. The bed must be brought into his room. As Jonathan had lived among the negroes all his life, he was very super- stitious, and he said to John Sharpe the next morning, “‘If that ghost comes much more, and things go on as they are, I think I will move into town.”’ That day John Sharpe devoted to preparing Jonathan’s room so that he could receive the ghost in proper fashion. Jonathan always locked his door at night, so Sharpe knew he would not have to be concerned with this. So Cords were attached to them elose. That night nothing happened, and the aext morning Sharpe wondered if the ghost he devoted his attention to the windows. in such a way that when they were pulled they would knew of his trap. He decided to go to town that day, and accordingly set out at about half past ten. After going about a half mile Sharpe became conscious of a feel- ing that he was being followed. He doubled and turned till he was satisfied that a man was following him. This put the subject in something of a different light. All that day Sharpe thought of dfferent theories, only to discard them all in the end. The night that Sharpe had changed his bed seemed to be the last night the ghost would appear, and Sharpe began to think that Jonathan’s natural snperstitiousness had worked his imagination up to a high point because of the negro’s story. But still the silver had steadily disappeared and was steadi- ly disappearing until now only two-thirds of the original amount was left. Now Sharpe had noticed in the neighborhood several men, to be exact, three, and when Jonathan’s attention had been called to them, it was evident that he had never seen them before. He said so himself. ‘‘No,’’ he had said one evening, “‘I don’t think I ever saw those three men before; probably drummers or tourists. But I do admit that they aren’t very well dressed.”’ ““Well,’’ said Sharpe. ‘I’m going to look at those men well. so that I’l] know them if I should meet them.’’ This he did. Although new faces were seen frequently in the town, Thirty-two G Se = ) THE SEGHO very few were seen as far out as the Rhudden Manor unless they were rich men, looking for a place to buy, but these men did not look as if they could buy much of anything. For a space of about a week Sharpe was engaged in the work of trying tu find some secret panel in the great mahogany sideboard. As the sideboard was very elaborately carved, it took a very long time to try to find some secret spring that would be the key to the panel. He felt sure that somewhere an entrance led to the interior of the sideboard. So solidly built was the side- board, and maybe the builder had put some deadener in the wood, that when it was heavily hit it gave out no hollow sound. But all of Sharpe’s efforts availed him nothing. No spring or panel could he find. Somewhat discouraged at his failure to find the panel, and_ to stop the thefts of the silver, he approached Jonathan one evening, and after the usual current talk of the day said this, ‘‘Jonathan. I think we ought to send for a truck of guards, and have the silver taken to town and deposited in the safety vault.’’ “Anything that you think should be done will be done,’’ replied Jona- than who was glad to have the responsibility in other hands. So it was moved. ‘wo nights later the last of the silver had been transferred. The next night about midnight John Sharpe became conscious of a queerness in the room even though he was asleep. Suddenly he sat bolt up- right in bed with an empty feeling in his stomach and prickly feelings caper- ing up and down his backbone. On the side of the room opposite the window John Sharpe saw a huge white thing. Jonathan could stand and he fell back, white as the Ghost. Despite Sharpe’s courage it was with a voice far from steady that he delivered the following words, ‘‘Stand Still! Don’t move! You c-eant escape, if you move I will shoot!’’ He had drawn a Colt from under his pillow when he had first awakened. Then the peculiar thine moved. Sharpe’s trained eye saw that it moved only from side to side, never towards him. Fearful of its escape, he pulled the cord that shut the windows. Immediately the ghost turned from white to red and then to blue, the color of the air of the room changing with it. Then it slowly began to diminish in size. This was too much for Sharpe’s strained nerves, and, firing all eleven shots through the ghost, he fell back in a dead taint. In the morning, somewhat ashamed of his fainting, he examined the room very carefully. On one white wall he found eleven shots in a space not much Jarger than a dollar. Jonathan left that very same day, and Sharpe, deter- mined to end it now or never, sent to New York for two other detectives. Then he examined the room carefully, for he felt sure the ghost had some way to vet in. Nothing could be found, however, so he devoted his time to the 2rounds outside. Suddenly he saw something but then apparently it was only an illusion. The rest of the day he spent in searching for that elusive secret panel. The next day the two plain clothes men arrived. Sharpe told them a lit- tle about the mystery and then gave them their orders. He had a hard time Thirty-three ———— TEE ECHO i | throwine the man who was following him off his trail, so he instructed the men to be very careful, as he didn’t want his trailer to know who they were. After they left, Sharpe made a few purchases and returned to the Manor. Leaving his purchases with the negro eook, who with her husband, was the only negro servant who had not left, Sharpe began to press, twist, and pull all the knobs and hollows on the sideboard. Evening came. Sharpe, still at work, had nearly given up, and stood running his fingers gloomily over the surface, when suddenly his hand pushed a little piece of scroll work off. Afraid that he had damaged the scroll, Sharpe turned quickly to get the broken piece when suddenly before his eyes the sideboard turned around until the opposite side faced him. This side matched the wall perfectly, so per- feetly in fact that Sharpe would have sworn, had he not known differently that the wall was one piece. In the center of the wall that formed the part that. swung around, was a small door. Upon trying this door Sharpe found it unloeked, so he entered. He’ found himself in a good sized tunnel formed by the mahogany sideboard. At one end a stairease was leading downward, for there was no floor in the sideboard. Following the staircase with the the aid of a pocket flash Sharpe came abruptly to the end. ‘That’s funny,’’ mused Sharpe, ‘‘All that work to conceal the entrance, and then it doesn’t lead anywhere.’’ So he returned and had supper. That night he didn’t sleep but lay awaiting the ghost. At about midnight his vigil was rewarded, but almost immediately there was a commo- tion outside the window. Sharpe, who had not fully undressed, quickly diress- ed and went outside to where the plain clothes men held two other mcn and a picture machine. ‘‘Good work,’’ briefly stated Sharpe Then he took the {wo men into the house. Sure enough, they wre the two men he had seen out- side the gate. ‘You had better explain fully now, if you know what is best for you.”’ The men looked at each other. Then one said, “You tell him, I guess the game is up.”’ ‘AlLvieht,’’ said the other, then, turning to Sharpe he said, “‘You will let us off easier if we tell?’ Probably,’’ said Sharpe. __‘ Well! then, downstairs there is a mahogany sideboard. It is hallow and is part of a secret tunnel. There is also an outside entrance to this ry . tunnel. The tunnel apparently runs nowhere, but at the end, high up on one wall, is a large nail. If this nail is pressed a heavy door about two feet square swings outward. This door is in the back of the vault where the silver is kept. “Oh, then Jonathan was too,used to taking ont and putting back the silver that he didn‘t notice the pieces were gone until he collected them ready for returning them to the vault. My investigations showed something was wrong,’’ said Sharp musingly. . ‘How did you know of the secret tunnel?’’ The men exchanged glances. ‘‘The head of our gang is M. Rhudden’s nephew, he is the man who trailed you. Long ago, when he and Jonathan Thirty-four Rhudden forgot it, while the nephew used to steal away and play in there,’’ said the first man. ‘Go on,’’ said Sharpe. ‘“Well,’’ said the other, ‘“‘It was our greed that caught us. We could have taken about half of the plate at once and made a getaway. But we want- ed it all. We decided that the best way would be to frighten Jonathan and take the plate slowly. This we did, but when we found that he had hired a detective, we speeded up in removing the plate, and cut out our ghost. Then you had the plate taken away. So we brought our motion picture machine in play and used a color slide to make the ghost change colors.’’ “That is why the ghost moved only from side to side, never towards me,’’ said Sharpe. ““Yes,’’ said the other, ‘‘The nephew said the walls were white and would make a fine screen. The only trouble we had was in getting up high enough, so we built an extension platform on the top of a small wagon.’’ ‘“‘T saw the tracks outside the window; that is why my men were out there,’’ replied Sharpe. ‘‘But why try to scare Mr. Rhudden?’’ ““Didn’t you know of the will that left every thing to the nephew if Mr, Rudden should leave for one month?’’ asked the spokesman. Oh yes, I did hear something about that,”’ replied the detective. ‘‘We’ll just lock you in this room until morning.’’ The next morning they went to town and the plate was recovered. They never caught the nephew, so the other two men were released on parole. Jon- athan quickly employed new servants and lived happily until his death. He left his fortune to John Sharpe, who has gone forth to other dangers and adventures. KENNETH SCHAFFER, ’21 Thirty-five EY. JACK,,’”’ shouted Bill as he burst into Jack’s room, ‘ Sis gave me this envelope. It has your name on it, so I suppose it belongs to you. Goodby, I have to go to the library.”’ Bill threw a letter at Jack and dashed madly out of the room and down the stairs. Jack looked thoughtfully at the envelope and inspected the neat, girlish handwriting of the address. So Elsie had written to him. The fact sent a thrill winding up and down his spine. He wondered what she had to say to iim. He hastily tore open the letter and read: Dear Jack: Won’t you please come to the party I am giving at my house next Friday evening? I want you to come for two reasons; first, because I want you for my partner, and second because that extra quart of ice-cream will go begging if you don’t come. ELSIE. Jack danced a little jig around the room and then wondered why he did it. Would he go? Oh boy, nothing could stop him; this was Elsie’s party. All that day Jack was excited and elated. His folks did not under- stand the reason for his strange behavior, and Jack did not enlighten them in any way other than that he was going to a party. That night after he had crawled in bed he lay thinking of the letter Elsie had written him. He remembered when he had first met Elsie, two weeks before in the algebra classroom. She was new to the town and the people. She had asked him where Fifth Street was and it seemed to Jack the sweetest voice he had ever heard. He had told her as best he knew how and she had thanked him with a look of her pretty eyes. He remembered how it thrilled him every time she spoke to him, and how he had grown to admire her more and more every day, until one day he had spruced up enough courage to walk home with her after school. After that his boy friends had poked fun at him every chance they got. Hadn’t he told them time and time again that he was a woman hater; wouldn’t have anything to do with silly girls and all that? They considered they had a Thirty-six Weld VAGl so, perfect right to tease him; for hadn’t he deliberately blackmailed them? He most certainly had, for he had even walked home with Elsie—and he claimed 1¢ be a woman hater! ! ! They knowingly informed him that he was ‘‘stuek on Elsie.’”’ He defiant- ly flung back that he was not ‘‘stuck on Elsie,’’ but down deep in his heart he knew that he was. He told himself he wasn’t ‘‘stuck on her;’’ no, that was too coarse an expression for his effeetions—he just liked her more than the other girls. As he lay there, reviewing all these and many more incidents of the past days, he finally fell asleep still dreaming dreams of Elsie and wishing Friday would come. Friday morning came along at last after two of the slowest days Jack had ever lived through. All day he fussed and fidgeted about every little thing that came up. His mother wondered why he was so keen on going to this spe- cial party, but did not ask any questions. In the evening he hastily swallowed his supper, taking care that none of it slipped by him unawares and lodged on his brand new suit. His mother had not intended to let him buy that suit for a couple of weeks; but, he ex- ‘absolutely had to have it because this was a special occasion.’’ To Jack’s immense delight, his mother, after a little easy persuasion, allowed him to go to the clothing store and pick out a new suit of “Sunday clothes.’’ to be initiated on Friday. ‘ plained, he After supper, Jack slyly slipped into the bathroom and ran about an inch of water into the tub. His mother not knowing he was there, walked un- suspectingly in with an armful of clean towels. She started, and with a lit- tle ery of surprise, dropped the clean towels on the floor; for there was Jack standing in water in the middle of the bathroom with his newly shined best shoes on and his striped silk socks. “Why Jack, what under heaven are you doing that for,’’ she burst out. Jack stood staring at his mother, spell-bound and speechless, his mouth agape and his face turning to a deep red. ““W-W-Why,’’ he finally managed to stammer, ‘‘One—one of my shoes has a little squeak in it and I thought I might be able to soak it out. You know you told me that sometimes a little water would stop a squeak in shoes.’”’ Mrs. Hastings backed out of the room as suddenly as she had entered it so her son wouldn’t see the surpressed grin that gradually spread over her face. Why had her son, who was usually so slipshod and careless about the appearance of his dress, suddenly becoming so finicky and why was he doing so much primping? She didn’t know for sure, but she had a pretty strone sus- picion. Her mind flew back to the time when she had met that boy, before she had met “‘Father.’’ She smiled at the almost forgotten memory of long ago and murmured to herself, ‘‘I guess young people are just the same now as they used to be.’’ Jack, rather embarrassed at the recent turn of events, grabbed his hat Thirty-seven DHE ECHO with a muttered good-by to no one in particular and hurried to the side- walk. . ' Once on the street he completely forgot his embarrassment ot the moment before and looked about him to see if anyone had noticed his new at- tire. Apparently no one had. Jack wondered why. Here he was dressed as nis kid brother expressed it, ‘‘fit to kill,’ in a new suit with prominent creases down the trouser legs, best hat, new tie, striped silk socks, and newly shined shoes that still squeaked despite the pains he had taken to prevent it. Well, it didn’t make any difference if nobody wanted to look at him anyway. But he thought to himself, ‘‘I bet they would think a lot, if the) knew where | was going.” With his head held high, humming a little tune of his own composure, building air castles in which he and Elsie were the predominating characters, snd seemingly walking on the air itself instead of the hard sidewalk, Jack trode alone looking as important and dignified as his seventeen years would permit. Almost before he knew it, he had reached Elsie’s home. A group of boys who stood talking in front of the house hailed him as he walked up the drive- vay. Jack almost feared they would begin to taunt him, but his fears did not come true. In her invitation Elsie had told each boy to bring his own partner; so, as every boy had brought a girl, they saw no occasion to tease Jack at this particular time. Bill poked his head out of the front door and told the boys to enter. Jacks hopes rose high as he heard this and he began to imagine all sorts of lovely things. He could just see himself leading Elsie around the fioor looking as uncon- cerned and as important as the President of the United States would look on such an oceasion. But alas, his hopes did net turn out at all as he expected. He entered expecting to be greeted by Elsie and then to take her by the arm and lead her off. But not so; for there was Elsie sitting with a strange young man, talking earnestly to him. She merely smiled at him as he entered, but made no move to leave the stranger and greet him. Jack was dumfounded and his face turned red with jealousy. Who was this impudent young man anyway that had the nerve to take his girl away from him after she had asked him to be her partner? He would find out who this stranger was if he had to commit murder, He was afraid to,ask anyone fear- ing the reason of his asking might be guessed. He didn’t suspect Elsie in the least. No Elsie was too good to play such a raw trick on him as that. It was entirely the fault of that stranger; the rascal, he was probably her form- er beau who had dropped in to see her tonight. Jack would see to it that that fellow would get all that was coming to him and a little extra the first time they met on a lonely road away from all habitation. Dark plots, that boded no good to the stranger were roaming around in Jack’s mind as he sat think- ing of this recent turn of affairs. Just then a light touch on his shoulder aroused him. Turning quickly he stood face to face with Elsie. That con- Thirty-eight ee eT ECHO) founded stranger was still at her side; he smiled pleasantly but Jack com- pletely ignored the smile and kept his eyes on Elsie. “Why Jack, what’s the matter? Don’t you feel well tonight?’’ exclaimed Elsie anxiously. ‘ No,’’ muttered Jack flushing, ‘‘I never felt better in my life.’’ ‘Well then,’’ retorted Elsie tilting her head, ‘‘Why don’t you wake up and have some fun? The dance is going to begin in a few moments and I don’t believe you have spoken a word to a single girl this evening. Something must be the matter.’’ “No there isn’t,’’ asserted Jack doggedly. “Well then let’s get started. Do you see this boy,’’ pointing to the strang- er, “I want to introduce you.’’ Jack turned suddenly but Elsie went on. “Tom, this is a friend of mine, Jack Hastings; Jack this is my cousin Tom Sheldon.”’ “Your who?’’ rudely broke in Jack. “Why my cousin,’’ apologized Elsie, ‘‘didn’t you know I had a cou- D7? ‘No,’ said Jack beginning to feel very sheepish, ‘‘I never thought much about it.”’ “Glad to know you, Jack,’’ said Tom warmly grasping Jack’s hand. Jack smiled at his late imaginary enemy and realized he had gained an- other friend; first, because Tom looked like a good scout and second because he was a cousin of Elsie. ““Come on, Jack,’’ said Elsie tugging at his arm. ‘‘They are beginning to danece.’’ Jack came willingly enough, but not without a rather sheepish suspi- cion that he had played the fool’s part. He quickly overcame this suspicion through the friendliness of Tom and by an alibi he made up and repeated time and time again to himself, ‘‘I knew he wasn’t her beau all the time. but I just thought he might be.’’ ROBERT HARDIN. Thirty-nine ANSI EXC) S(O) Che Aduentiure Conyrany CC IZ’’ JONES viciously kicked a stray cur which had wandered before him, and then laughed. Things were getting desperate. Two months ago, after finishing our high school education, we had embarked on what we thought would be a successful business career, And it took just two weeks to disillusion us. A diploma is not the key to success. And when Biz’’ started to kick stray dogs, things were getting desperate! Possibly a little explanation is needed. Jerome Aramis Jones, alias “Biz’’, and myself, were two common, ordinary boys, American garden variety. Jones had a great head for business and things practical, hence the nickname. But I was just an idle dreamer. If I had been able to write verse, I would have been a poet. As it-was, | was just an idle dreamer, who had succeeded in getting through high school through the assistance of one ‘‘Biz’’ Jones. It was Jones who had always helped me out, it was with Jones that I roomed. Jones was the only friend I had, and the only person I had ever eared for. Both pf us were without relations and had few friends to whom we could turn for financial aid. Thus it was, two months after graduation, that we were walking in the park, trying to think of some means by which we could inveigle a meal into our possession. “Some adventure, we’re having,’’ I remarked, apropos of nothing. “Uh! Yeh!’ monosyllabled ‘‘Biz,’’ for the moment forgetting his usual good English. “Remember how we used to plan out our eareers?’’ I asked reminiscent- ly. “‘Strictly business for five years or ten years and then we’d have enough cash to take us to the Orient and Europe and we’d look for adventure?’’ The things we intended to buy and do? Oh, Yes! I guess we weren’t cut out to be Rockefellers. Let’s get a job as street sweepers!”’ But ‘Biz’’ had a startled look on his face; his mouth was open and his eyes were staring. As usual, when he was in deep thought, his cap was oft and he was rumpling his hair with the right hand. Suddenly he turned to me, and gurgled happily. “Old pal, you’ve gimme an idea! Listen! We’ll get some cash some- where (never mind how, we’ll get it!) and start a little company, dealing in adventures exclusively. There must be lots of people who would pay almost any sum for a real man-size adventure. And it’s up to us to supply the de- mand. We'll start the company, do a little quiet advertising, get some rich fellows who want adventure, have them sign on the dotted line. and then shanghai ’em! What say..’’ I confess I was dubious, but we were getting so short of money, and work was so hard to get, that I was ready for anything; besides, I liked the idea of an adventure company. So it was that, I agreed, and we embarked on our vareer of adventure-dealers. ““And you say that for five hundred dollars you will give me a good adventure ?”’ ‘““That’s just exactly what I’ve been endeavoring to convey to you. Cash down, the adventure to begin right away. We can’t promise that it will be a pink tea affair; there’ll be plenty of hard knocks, some fights, and maybe strenuous work. Adventure, you want, adventure we supply. Just sign on the dotted line of this contract.’’ This was the dialog between President ‘Biz’? of the Adventure Company, and ‘‘Dandy”’ Jimmieboy, the young mil- lionaire of the city, who had become tired of the ‘‘high life’? and wanted adventure, served raw and without any dressing. And ‘‘Biz’’ was getting him, too. “All right, here’s a check, and please start the adventure right off. To- day !’’ The last eagerly from the blase millionaire. “Righto, my hearty,’’ crows ‘‘ Biz,’’ ‘‘ Don’t worry, your adventure will be- gin anytime. You may be kidnapped as you leave this office, or smuggled trom your mansion, or whisked away from your club. Im any ease you'll get adventure, good and plenty. Good-bye!”’ And the door closed after the youngster, as I entered the room from the one adjoining. ““Congrats, ‘Biz’, I yodeled; ‘‘ And now let’s turn adventure loose in this old town and feed it to that hungry young banknote. Quick! To work!’’ The boisterous theater party was just leaving the portals of the opera house, when a small gray car, with the blinds pulled down, drew up to the’ curb. At the same instant three shadows broke away from the doorways bordering the opera house, and quickly approached the party from behind. Suddenly the shadows started running, dashed through the theater party and into the gray car, and were whirled away before anyone could so much as scream. And when the dishevelled members of the party were again united they were lacking in one. ‘‘Dandy’’ Jimmieboy was gone! The meaning of the rushing figures and the gray car suddenly burst upon them, and in a few minutes the entire police force of the city was scouring the haunts of the criminals for the prominent Jimmieboy, millionaire and adventure lover. But emmieboy was gone, he had completely disappeared, and not even the special detectives could find a clue. Thus it was that we supplied our first customer, for it was ‘‘Biz’’ and I who had hired the flivver, which was not a “gray; car,’’ had employed the three ‘‘sprinters’’ who were in need of money, and had otherwise planned to go into the adventure business wholesale. As to Jimmieboy; after being kiknapped, he had been taken to China- town. There we had given him a strong sleeping powder; and “Biz’’ knew a captain of a three-master who had an unscrupulous method of getting sailors for his ship. Need I say more? Forty-one Things went smoothly along. Adventure seekers were all supplied. In all eases. those whom we undertook to satisfy were shanghaied to foreign parts. Not one of them did we leave to roam in the U.S. If, when they arrived ina foreign jort, with little money, and with thousands of miles between them and their homes, they did not fee! that they had heir ‘‘adventure’’ they should certainly never have left the protection of their friends. In the meantime things had happened. ‘‘Biz’’ and I were prosperous. We had automobiles and servants and friends Occasionally, while riding, we would see people who we had cured of adventure. Jimmieboy, three years af- ter having been shanghaied, turned up in the old city, but refused to explain nis absence. He never came to us again. When he did see us, he scowled dark- ly, but we did not think that he ‘‘had it in’’ for us. One ‘night, feeling the heat more than usual, we had left the city and had gone out in the country. It was sometime past seven. All during the trip we had heard the hum of a motor car behind us, but it had stopped at the same time we did. ‘‘Biz’’? and I were lying on a little hummock looking at the moon when we were set upon by six men. Although we resisted we were overpowered, and bundled into a car. Then we were tied, blindfolded and taken back to the city. The blindfolds must have contained ether, for we were fast asleep before we reached the business section. I awoke with evil presentments and a sickening sensation in the pit of my stomach. Glancing about me I saw that I was ina rough bunk. ‘‘Biz’’ was op- posite me, still asleep. A lantern dangled from the low ceiling and the room seemed to roll from side to side. My intuition quickly proved by the en- trance of a sailor. When ‘‘Biz’’ had sufficiently recovered from the shock, some three days iater, I explained to him what had happened. Jimmieboy, blue blood, had been peeved over that adventure we had handed him. He had merely watched his epportunity and had shanghaid us as we had him. ‘‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’’ He hadn’t been able to take his medicine. ‘‘Biz’’ was all cast down but I cheered him up. True, we had to shovel coal all day, and it was hard work. ‘‘But,’’ as I said to ‘‘Biz’’, ‘‘We’re on our way to China, and with the money we’ll get paid for stoking, we’ll be able to cable for more money from our bankers, and then we’ll have an adventure of our own. Just you and I. Like we planned to have, when we were going to high school.’ ““Yep,’’ echoed ‘‘Biz’’ fondly, ‘‘Just you and I.’ FRANCIS PIAZZI, ’22 Che Boy Who Made Good Jack McDonald was the best pal a fellow ever had. It seemed that he and I were just born to be pals. Jack was an orphan, and when I fir st knew him he was selling newspapers to support his thin, long-legged, kid sister, and himself. Jack hadn’t the opportunities that I, Daniel Warfield Pemberton, Jr., the son of the great oil magnate, had, but he was the type who always makes good in spite of any opposition on the part of the gods. His great- est ambition was to give his wistful-eyed little sister a cozy home and a good education and somehow, I knew he would do it. I had not seen the folks for a long time, but now. having completed my four years at Harvard, I was at last on my way back to good old San Fran- cisco. Of course, | should have gone to U. C., but Dad had gone to Harvard, and his father had gone to Harvard, so even before I was out of kilties it was decided that I, too, should go to Harvard. To be sure, the semester had ended a good two months before, but my room-mate, Nelson, had asked me to go down South, and visit his folks before going home. To this proposition I readily agreed. Those two months were corking! Such a round of gay swimming parties, house-parties, hikes, dances, and picnics I have never before seen. And there were girls—blondes, bur- uettes, and mediums, all happy and carefree, and striving to please. Oh, it was jolly, all right. And yet, when I had bade farewell to my host and his intersting colleagues, and was on a swift, west-bound train, my thoughts kept running ahead of the flying cars by leaps and bounds to the moment when I would again see Mother and the Governor, and Jack. Somehow, I more than wanted to see my pal—I ached to see him. For Jack it was who had kept me supplied with the news of the old home town; Jack it was who had raised my depressed spirits when a little yellow slip had told me of a serious flunk mark, and Jack it was who filled my thoughts all through that weary train ride home. Do you know, as I dreamed of home and the folks, that ride seemed endless. And when I finally did reach good old S. F., and saw Mother there waiting for me I wouldn’t have given that one moment of greeting for a million years of Southern parties. Together we walked to the car, there to be weleomed by George Wash- ington White, our old chauffeur. His white teeth were gleaming from ear to ear, and his black face was shining as though it had been polished for the occasion. “ Tt’s Ma rse Dan’l come back,’’ he chuckled. ‘‘Howdy, Marse Dan’ how- dy We sho’ is glad to see yo’ all. Hop in suh, hop in. Ah done dust de eah mahse’f, suh.”’ The old darky’s joy at my return touched me strangely, and I gulped, although I don’t know why I did it. However, I shook hands with him, and said, ‘‘Howdy, George,’’ helped Mother into the sedan, and shut the door —— Forty-three THESE CHO - after us with a slight bang. Rapidly we rolled homeward through the fami- liar streets, and turned into our big, sweeping driveway. The old place was just as I had left it—the hedges still well-trimmed, and the garden just as old-fashioned and rambling as ever. The house, usually so stately and im- posing, stood with open doors to welcome me, and the shades, (which Moth- er raised only on very special occasions), were even with the tops of the windows. After luncheon, Dad laid down his paper, rose and coming towards me placed his hands down upon my shoulders. Dad is a big man, tall and proud of bearing, but I stand even with him now. ‘My son,”’ he said, ‘‘I think you’ve played around long enough. Don’t you?”’ ““Yes, sir,’’ I replied, as meekly as though I were a boy of six, rather than a man Dad’s equal in size and strength. Evidently gaining further courage, he went on: “It’s about time you were beginning to amount to something isn’t it?’’ “Yes sir,’’ I repeated, meeker than before. “ So,’’ he continued, ‘‘so I’ve decided you’d better get to work. How would you like to be my partner, Dan?”’ Dad’s partner! Would I! If the governor had suddenly hit me with a brick, I could not have been more surprised. I stood there like an idiot, my mouth so wide open that my chin nearly rested on my chest. “Thanks, Dad,’’ I mumbled, ‘‘Thanks, You’re—you’re just corking.’ Somehow I managed to shake hands with my—my—partner,—and then I turned and stumbled out into the hall. My legs were strangely wobbly, and my tho’ts were all mixed up. One purpose was uppermost in my mind, how- ever, I must tell Jack. Mechanically I reached for my hat, and mechanically I pulled out my watch. It was a quarter of five. He must be bome now, I ran lightly down the steps—or rather, I suppose it was lightly—and hurried ou into the street. Jack had moved, and the address scrawled on a rumpled envelope pointed toward a semi-fashionable part of the city. But I could not make the order out of chaos. Dad’s partner—Jack would be glad, too—there were new people in Nielson’s house—just think, Dad’s partner—My, but the air felt good—-Dad’s partner— I walked on and on. The fog was rolling in from the bay—ereat blan- kets of drizzly, gray fog that hid the higher sandhills from view and made the taller buildings seem floating in the vapor. A strong wind was coming in from the sea, throwing a fine refreshing mist into my face. Suddenly an unexpected gust politely removed my hat from my head, and sent it rolling merrily along the sidewalk. I am really considered quite a sprinter, and I (note my swelling chest) won the races at the big athletic meet at Harvard, but somehow, that hat was just about my match. Not only that, but the impudent thing even took time to fox-trot and two-step in a most maddening ynanner while it waited for me to get within four feet of it—then off it would go again. I raced after it at break-neck speed. To add to the amusing spee- Forty-four Aloe HC) SCO) tacle offered, a poor, skinny, homeless dog joined the procession. That hat twirled on, yours truly close behind it, and a stray doe after me. I was gaining on that hat. The dog was so close behind me now, that I could hear his cheerful panting. . ; As we approached a corner, a young lady, seemingly in a hurry also, stepped into view. Perhaps all might have gone well, but the pup had not counted on a sudden stop, so—well we all went down in a heap. When I came to—a space of two and a half seconds—I was sitting gazing at the girl opposite me. She had big brown eyes and curly hair, a mouth that was just meant to be—I mean, a pretty red mouth, and she wore a soft pink tamo!- shanter, tilted coquettishly. Of course, I’m a woman hater, but she was cer- tainly some girl. She laughed blithely, and sprang lightly to her feet, deftly arranging her disordered hair. “ Oh,’’ she gasped, ‘‘How Funny.”’ As aforesaid, I am considered quite an athlete, but somehow, I just could not get up off that sidewalk. It seemed as though I were suddenly stiff and old from rheumatism, and that the spot on which I reposed was coated with elue. As I made no move to rise, a worried look came into the girl’s smiling eyes. ‘‘Are you hurt?’’ she queried anxiously. ‘‘Oh, it was all my fault. I’m sO sorry.’’ ‘Oh, no,’’ I returned hastily, jumping to my feet as gracefully as a cow. ‘‘Not at all. I should have watched where I was going. Where is my hat?’’ There was the origin of all the trouble, leaning against a lamp post, seem- ingly holding its sides in laughter at my predicament, (if a hat has sides to hold), and let me pick it up without further outbreak. The pup had dis- appeared. The young lady and I bade adieus, and each went on their way. Now my thoughts were more confused than ever. I was to be Dad’s partner—Jack lived in an apartment—good for Jack—that was some girl, Jack would be glad—didn’t she have the brownest eyes?—about Dad’s part- ner, | mean—of course, I’m a woman hater, but— ““Come to, old man,’’ I grunted, disgustedly. ‘‘Here’s your destina- iON” Up the carpeted stairs I wound my way. Jack’s ambition was certainly at last realized, for he couldn’t have found a better location in the whole of San Francisco. How happy he and his scrawny little sister must be! I rapped sharply on the door of their apartment, and my old pal himself an- swered the knock. Picture for yourself a meeting between two fellows who have been as chummy all their lives as Jack and I have been. It seemed so good to be together again. The room was comfortably and tastefully furnished, with great armchairs, and downy cushions, and stacks of books. We drew up chairs to the cozy, old-fashioned fireplace, and Jack smoked his faithful pipe while I talked on and on. I talked of Dad’s wonderful proposition, of college; of my new Forty-five THE - ECHO motor-car L had just ordered, of the South, of my recent humilating collision, and of forty-’leven other things two people, long separated, find to talk about. And Jack sympathized or laughed heartily with me. He had not changed a pit. Then he began to talk. I gazed on my pal’s face as he communicated his tho’ts to me—a clean face, and an honest one. ‘‘Features finely chiselled, eyes bluer than the skies of June,’’ a feminie novelist might deseribe him. But I’m not the least bit poetic, so we’ll let it go at that. Jack’s yes were fastened tho’tfully on the fire as he poured out his heart to me. While I had been away having a good time, Jack had been strug- cling bravely thru’ thick and thin. I had never dared offer him pecuniary aid, for Jack was born with a pride much too easily offended. Gradually the whole story came out—his steady climb, beginning with a newsboy as the lowest rung of the ladder. He told of his job as office-boy, next cub-reporter, and finally, his present position as assistant manager of one of the largest newspapers in San Francisco. We must have been talking for about an hour, when it suddenly dawned on me that something was missing. Something—what was it? Then in a flash, it came to me. ‘‘Where’s your kid-sister, Jack?’’ I demanded. ‘‘I rather miss her usual prattle.’’ “Oh, Mary?’ he replied. ‘She’s out shopping, I guess. She went out just a few minutes before you came in. Do you know, Dan, if it hadn’t been for Mary, I don’t believe I could have amounted to anything.’’ ‘She is a companionable little tike,’’ I suggested. ‘“No,”? said Jack, ‘‘she’s more than that. When I had the flu, she stayed up night after night with me, watching me like a mother. Dan, it nearly hroke her down, but she stuck to it.’’ His fine voice choked a little, then he went. ‘‘She’s nearly tru’ business college now. Thank goodness, I’ve given her a fairly good education, at least.’’ Further discourse was broken by the sound of voices outside the door. One of these, a feminine tone, was strangely familiar. It was in vain that I attempted to place the voice, when Jack, interrupting my train of tho’t, said: ‘‘Here’s Mary now.”’ The door burst open, and in came a girl in a pink tam-o’-shanter, a girl with soft brown eyes, and a merry smile. It was the girl of my ridiculous ex- perience of the afternoon. I stood there like an idiot, my eyes glued on her lovely face. Jack’s scrawny, long-legged, wistful-eyed kid sister this grace- ful girl? Jack stood and looked from one to the other of us. ““Dan, are you crazy?’’ he demanded. ‘‘Mary, for the love of Mike, drop those bundles, and let me introduce you to your old friend, Dan Pem- berton. He doesn’t seem to know you.”’ “Daniel Warfield Pemberton, Jr.,’’ repeated the girl, slowly. ‘‘Oh, yes, J remember him now.’’ ee ok Forty-six JHE ECHO ————— The spell was broken, and we all piled in to help get supper. It was the funniest supper I ever attempted to eat—salad and cake, chocolate and pie- kles, sou pand tarts—but gee, it was corking! After our ‘light repast,’’ we all dug into the dishpan. Personally, I think it’s a wonder we were not told to clear out, we made a hullabaloo, but—well, I guess the other oceupants decided to give us another trial. At 9:30 I tore myself away from the place, and made my way home thru’ the cold, desolate, drizzily fog. I am going up there again sometime mighty soon—and it isn’t exactly to see Jack that I’m going. Of course, I’m a woman hater—but by George, Mary’s some girl! ELLEN HOLM, ’21. wwe La Guerra Siempre ha de ser la misma. Nace en no saber los proprios derechos o en despreciar los derechos ajenos.

Forty-eight THE ECHO —— ea Che Owl's Triumph ‘he door of Number 23 flew open with a bang and ‘‘Slim”’ Perkins ia: excitedly into the room. ‘Listen to this, fellows!’’ he exclaimed to the boys that gathered around him. ‘“‘Bridgepont Academy is going to have a big Winter Carnival and they ve invited us to take part in it. There’ll be a lot of races and contests, and a silver cup will be presented to the school winning the most points. Gee, it’s going to be some affair!’’ “When’s this Carnival coming off?’’ demanded a fat boy, known to his comrades as Tubby.”’ “They haven’t decided on the days yet, but it will be in about three weeks,’’ rephed Shm as he turned to leave. ‘‘I’ll be back in a few minutes, I’m going to tell the other fellows.”’ At the door he paused and addressed a handsome youth standing by the window. ‘‘Say, Jim, the girls from the school up the river will be at the Car- nival; good chance for you to see your Miss Wentworth.”’ A shout of laughter greeted this remark, for everyone knew of Jim’s in- terest in that popular young lady and never missed an opportunity of remind- ing him of the fact that he did. After he had taken his departure, the boys began to discuss the coming Carnival and the events they planned to enter. Only one boy remained silent, a solemn-looking lad wearing large shell-rimmed glasses. He listened attent- ively to the conversation but said nothing until Tubby, wth a grn, asked hm if he expected to get, a place for some event. ‘Guess so; I’ll try anyhow,’’ was the answer. The boys laughed at this and one added, ‘‘ We’ve heard you say that be- fore, Owl.’’ The Owl only smiled good-naturedly, but said nothing. His ambition to win athletic distinction was the joke of the school. He went out for every sport but had never yet ‘‘made’’ a team. The conversation was interrupted by the supper bell, and the room was speedily emptied. The next three weeks were busily spent in preparing for the Carnival. The Owl did not seem to take part in any of these activities, and his lack of partiicpation caused his friends to wonder. A Freshman claimed to have seen him, one night, skiing on the hill, but no one believed him and Slim had said sarcastically: ‘‘ Why! The Owl ski? Why he eouldn’t keep his feet on a pair to save his life.’’ Another declared that he had seen him skating on the river, but he wasn’t believed, either. The questions put to the Owl received only evasive answers, or none at all. At last the first day of the long-expected Winter Carnival arrived. Slim, the Owl, Tubby, and their friends, together with the rest of the boys from Rox- ten, went over at nine o’clock in the morning. A few minutes after they Forty-nine WANE. INC AlO reached Bridgeport Academy the girls from Fairdale School drove up in sleights. Jim immediately started for the sleigh which held Miss Wentworth, and the two were much in evidence together during the two days of the Carnival. The morning was merrily spent in skating, skiing and tobogganing. The river and shore presented a gay appearance, covered with laughing boys and girls attired in bright Winter costumes. It was a beaut iful scene indeed. After lunch, came the toboggan and snowshoe races, and the ski-jumping contests. Slim Perkens won the latter with a tremendous jump, for a boy of his age and size. The toboggan races were captured by a team of Bridgeport boys that took the turns with a skill that showed much practice. The next morning exhibitions of fancy and figure skating were held on the river. Jim easily excelled the others at this, for he was naturally graceful and quick. In the afternoon everyone went again to the river to see the skat- ing races, the last of the events. At the end of the fifth race Roxton and Bridgeport were tied in the num- ber of points for the cup and only one race remained—the quarter mile. There- fore, everything depended on this race. The skaters were to race up the river, make the turn, which was marked by a barrel set on the ice, and then back to the starting line. As the contestants waited on the line for the start, a Roxton boy exclaimed to his neighbor, “‘Say, isn’t that the Owl on the right, there ?’’ “Well, what do you know about that! The Owl, of all people!’’ gasped the other. ‘‘Why, the race will be over before he even gets star ted.’’ Sure enough, the Owl was entered in the quarter-mile, for there he was on the line, resplendent in a striped jersey, black tights and a flaming red hockey cap. He smiled at the astonishment written on the faces of his friends, and waved his hand to them. At the starter’s “‘get set,’’ he set his blades firmly, put one hand on the ice and waited. At the crack of the gun he sprang forward, but his start was bad, and he fell behind the rest. He regained what he had lost, however, before the turn was reached. He swung around it without lessening his speed, his sharp skates grinding on the ice and sending a shower of silvery flakes into the sun- lit air. One fellow, attempting to take the turn too sharply, fell, and when he regained his feet he was hopelessly behind. Once around the turn, the Owl, bending low, increased his speed, if that were possible, till he seemed to literally fly across the ice. He held that speed with almost unbelievable endurance, and then he finally crossed the finish, amid the wild and delighted yells of his schoolmates. He was yards ahead of his nearest rival. That race was the talk of the school for many days, and the boys never entirely recovered from their amazement, for no one had dreamed that the Owl could even skate. That nigh ,the Catnival over, the happiest boy in the school was the Owl, for hadn’t he at last shown his friends that he could do something in athletics? Sleeping Endyminn Endymion, a shepherd boy, Lay slumb’ring near his sheep When Artemis came driving by, And saw the boy asleep. His beauty so entranced her, She came to him each night, And kissed him while he slumbered, there Beneath her radiant light. But soon the story of her love The mighty Zenus did hear: ““The moon has been quite pale of late This is the cause I fear.’’ Then to Endymion Zenus went Under a raging storm: Perpetual youth—perpetual sleep; Or death in any form!’’ Perpetual youth Endymion chose, With everlasting sleep, And in a eave on Latmos Mount Endymion slumbers deep. In sadness there, comes Artemis, And softly kisses him. She drives his flocks to pastures green. The moon, then, Dawn makes dim.

Fifty -six THE ECHO Fifty-seven =o) DHE ECHO Frank Feliz Adelaide Drummond Bernard Noonan Melvin Snodgrass Malcolm Weeks Clifton Morrill William Cowan Fifty-eight EE eECHO MALCOLM WEEKS MELVIN SNODGRASS President Second Semester President I irst Semester Associated Student Body It has been the practice for the President of the Student Body to out- line the achievements and plans of the Associated Student Body for the school annual; and so once again it becomes necessary to register the reg- tar controversy in the chronicle of the school’s yearly events. This year the Students’ Association has sent into the field of competition clever ath- letie teams, which have made very ereditable showings in behalf of the school. The teams have been furnished with equipment by the Student Body. Our school is considered one of the best high schools in the state. In the eyes of the University of California, the scholarship standard has been raised twenty-one percent since 1919. These few facts alone show that our stu- dent body is a progressive one. But since achievements of the school have been carefully presented in other sections of this publieation, this article will deal directly with the government of the Associaed Student Body. At the beginning of the second semester, the government of the Association underwent a change. It is a re- cognized fact that the government of any student body is of greatest import- ance to the individual as well as its school. It is the system under which; the student lives for four important years of his life. Under this system Fifty-nine TEESE CHO learns to be either patriotic or disloyal in his views. Hence one read- sees the importance of a well-developed system. The Associated Student Body of our school is slowly but surely develop- e a government similar to that of our national government. We have al- ways professed to have a republican form of government, with its three de- partments. But until this last semester the departments have been greatly confused. The president was the presiding officer of the legislative branch (Governing Board), and of the judicial department (Student Couneil), and he was, unaided, the entire department. This confusion was regarded by the in- coming President as impractical and destructive to school spirit; non-demo- eratic and demoralizing to the welfare of progressive student body. The executive therefore withdrew from the Student Couneil and appointed a Judge of the Council. Almost simultaneously the office of Attorney in the Council was created. The President thus completely severed his relations with the Couneil, which body has as its function the handling of the dis- ciplinary affairs of the students. The Governing Board has not been affect- ed by the changed system except that the Student Council has been dropped from the roll. The President has a plan whereby the Board may be further reduced to the point where it contains only the Class of Representatives, with the Vice-President as the presiding officer. The executive branch has been completely changed. A cabinet has been created which advises the President of student affairs. The cabinet con- sists of the following members: the Secretary of Athletics, under whose directions the managers of the teams work, as in the system at the Stanford University; the Secretary of Interior, who has charge of social affairs and is held responsible for their success; the Secretary of the Treasury, one of the most important offices of the cabinet; the Secretary of Scholarship, whose duties are to promote the scholarship of the school. In connection with this last office, a new scholarship society is being formed. The Judge and Attorney of the Council are the remainine officers of the Presi- dent’s cabinet. Much might be said regarding the high aims of the Student Body. How- ever, suffice it to say, that the Associated Student Body for the Santa Rosa Tigh School will be able in the near future to manage successfully all stu- dent activities. We hope to be able to ineculeate personal responsibility and promote the welfare of the whole association to the greatest possible degree. Malcolm C. Weeks .....

Sixty-one MSIE JKC) ak) - The Booster’s Club The Booster’s Club has finished itts second vear at Santa Rosa High with an enviable record of accomplishments. Many of the biggest rallies and as- semblies of the year were promoted and planned by the Boosters. A record of the many things made possible by the activity of the club would not do full justice to the actual work and purposes. The decoration of the gymnasium during basketball season, and the feeds, and entertainment viven the visiting teams were some of the club’s good deeds, which gave our high school a good name in other towns. The busy Boosters were foremost in promotion and the successful ear- rying out of the dances during the school year. In decorating, selling the tie- kets and putting over the school parties, the club strived its utmost- The many Weenie Sales were another feature of the Booster’s Club progressive plans. The funds netted by these enterprises were donated as the nucleus of the Scholarship Fund. Among the lesser accomplishments of the school year have been the effort made by a committee to have the sehool water supply im- proved. The big social event of the year for the Booster’s Club was the banquet and dance accompanied by a jolly initiation of new members: The new officers elected by the elub are Bernard Noonan, President ; Doro- thy Seawell, vice-president; Thyra Morrill, secretary, and Bernice Morrow, treasurer- Under the leadership of these energetic officers the Booster’s Club will undoubtedly have a wonderfully successful year, Sixty-two SE ECHO Block “‘S” Society The Block ‘ S”’ Society, formed with the object of makine the Block ‘‘S”’ more valuable to its wearers, has distinguished itself by enthusiastically boost- ing every good project that has come alone. The success of the last school circus was largely due to the efforts of the members of the society, who man- aged entirely the financial part of the circus. The Block ‘‘S’’ dance held in the gymnasium was one of the greatest attractions of the day, and netted quite a large sum for the circus funds. The boys who form the society have all won their letter for their achieve- ments in the different athletic activities in the school. The requirements for an athlete to win his letter in this school are very high and tend to make the members of the society very distinguished in school life. At a recent election of the society, Thomas Grace, one of the all-star men, was re-elected president of the organization. Tom is one of the most popu- lar athletes and students in the school, and his re-election to lead the Block “S”? is the reward for his faithful work. Stacy Lee, another all-star man, was elected vice-president. Ralph Devoto was elected secretary. Ralph be- came a member of the Block S’’ by winning his letter on the football team. Sixty-three THE ECHO. eff The Boys Glee Club, which was organized at the beginning of the Fall semester, has proven a great success in the school, not only in voeal instrue- tion, but also in the advancement of school affairs. The Glee Club has been under the supervision of Miss Helen Cochrane, to whom, for interest and co-operation, much credit is due. The Club participated ‘ the operetta “The Bo’sn’s Bride,’’ which was the big event of the year; it also rendered entertainment at one of the Cham- ber of Commerce Meetings and a number of times in the assemblies. The boys, with Miss Cochrane, are pleased with the manner in which their first efforts have been received. In the coming year the club intends to make more numerous appearances in public, as the sentiment seems to be strong in favor of the work they are accomplishing. The officers are: President. Bil] Cowan; Vice-President, Prank Grace, Secretary, Gerald Wade. 1 as ee tF Sixty-four THE ECHO At the beginning of this school year, a Girls’ Chorus was organized by Miss Helen Cochrane. It meets as a regular class, five times a week. ‘These girls have accomplished considerable work, and have sung at games and in assemblies. They are a talented group of young ladies, and have gained great recognition. Their remarkable ability to act as well as sing, was shown when the Boys’ Glee Club and Girls’ Chorus combined, featured ‘‘The Bo’sn’s Bride,’’ at the Cline Theatre. Their devotion for, and co-operation with Miss Cochrane, their capable instructor, has led them to their 2oal—suceess. Sixty-five Tels, CS, Public Speaking Class The public speaking class, under the direction of Mr. Borst, featured several interesting plays in the school gymnasium. The first of these was ealled ‘‘liuck.’’ It was an entertaining little romance, in which Clifton Mor- rill and Cleon Hedges took leading parts. The second, ‘‘Cupid in Khaki,’’ was a great success. It was on a Friday evening, February 14, in the annex aduitorium. Although it rained, many went to see it. The spectators pronounced it a great success. Joel Mallory and Bella Fisk were leading man and lady who delighted the audience with their clever acting. The third play put on by the public speaking class, was ‘‘The Locked Chest.’’ Maleolm Weeks and Dorothy Moore played the leading roles. Both of these young people showed unusual dramatic abilities. The members of the public speaking class who took part, and helped to make these plays a success were: Gladys Loew, Bella Fisk, Cleon Hedges, Hazel Kelly, Aili Sarinen, Dorothy Moore, Ellen Hahn, Velma Bucknum, Malcolm Weeks, Clifton Morrill, Joel Mallory, Jack Donovan, Ted Coon, Herbert Brandon. Ding-A-Liny Meryle Bish, a member of the local Junior College, presented the one-act eomedy Ding-a-Ling to the student body, this past May. It was a clever little affair, which introduced some real comedians. The general mix-up that fol- lowed, a certain employees clerk hiring out one boy to about a half-a-dozen dif- ferent applicants, was most amusing. The boys who helped to make this thing the success that it was, were: Hamlin Biglow Morgan Shipter Meryl Bish Fretz Katzendoodle John Lueas -_. George Bones Joe Dearing Heine Grauerholtz Joe Bussman . Reuben Corntassel Arsene Cheauvet Pietro Vonucei Sixty-six THE ECHO Che Bu'sn’s Bride The ‘‘Bo’sn’s Bride,’’ the great operetta which put Santa Rosa High School on the map, was given in the Cline Theatre. May Fourth. To say that it was a success would be putting it mildly. Everyone of the twelve-hundred seats in the Cline was taken, and it is thought that the proceeds will reach the five- hundred and fifty dollar mark. Miss Helen Cochrane, the musical director of Santa Rosa heh School, with the assistance of her Girl’s Chorus and Boys’ Glee Club, featured this operetta. To her, whose patience and kindly direction euided her pupils through the strenuous weeks of practice, much credit is due. One cannot over estimate her value to the school this past year. Her ““pep’’, and stick-to-itive- ness has made the musical department what it is. She eets behind everything, and boosts it along. That is why the operetta was a success, and that is why all her pupils love and admire her. It was because of her untiring efforts and co-operation given her by the students, that everyone in Santa Rosa agreed that the Bo’sn’s Bride was the best amateur performance seen in Santa Rosa for vears.

Eight 0’clock the same evening We cannot speak of the Bo’sn’s Bride, without mentioning the special inerits of those who took leading parts . Al Lucas proved to be a most ad- mirable lover, and certainly the girls in the audience envied the fortunately young Kitty who so captivated him. His clear tenor voice delighted both young and old, and his stage presence was perfect. Maleolm Weeks, Al’s mate, completely captivated the audience with his natural humor and ability to make serious situations comical. His interest in Dorothy, Kitty’s friend was es- pecially obvious. Meryl Bish, as usual, appeared as the natural comedian. His voice and manner were typical of an old salt, and his ability to admire the Sixty-seven THE ECHO chaperon, an old sweetheart of his was especially obvious. Clifton Morrill cer- tainly did some clever acting, and his attentiveness to Barbara, was perfectly wonderful. His interest in this young lady, increased as the evening progress- ed. As they did their ball-room waltz, they completely carried the audience with them and when it was finished, every one seemed sorry to think they could not continue. Critics have declared this the most attractive scene in the operetta. Bill Cowan, with his ‘“‘pep’’ and vim, added plenty of life to the scene. His deep bass voice poured forth in all its excellence that evening, and ha sounded like a professional rather than a High School boy. Our high school has rarely seen a more attractive, charming and pretty leading lady than Adelaide Drummond. Her great success lay in her natural- ness, her ease, graceful poise and pleasing personality. Her resonant voice rang in clear and bell like tones and produced a stillness upon the audience that was in itself a high compliment. The most noticeable points in her splen- did vocal work were her high tones taken with perfect freedom. Her acting was magnificient and with her undeniable charms, Dick Erne might well regret the thought of loosing her. Bella Fisk, who played the role of Dorothy, Kitty’s best friend, was re- markable. Her pleasing manner, her stage presence, and clear lyric voice carried her audience with her throughout the evening. Her friendly little smiles which she cast quite frequently at Tom Tupper, made that gentleman swell with pride. Lucile Krack, an admirable chaperon acted so cleverly, that folks thought she was a professional. ‘Her soprano voice and excellent tone quality was not surpassed. Her original costume and clever acting brought forth a burst of applause, when she appeared. Virginia Pomeroy as usual, delighted the audience with her perfect poises and gracefulness. Her dancing was superb, especially her solo dance, the Dance of the Sea Sprite when she made one feel so near the sea. One could fairly see her peacefully gliding on the foam of the deep blue ocean. Kathryn Marten’s rich, mellow, tone were especially praised. She has an unusually fine quality for her age, and her’s is a brilliant future in the musi- eal world. Hawdeville Stom On Friday, June 11th, during the regular assembly period the Boosters Olub presented a most entertaining four-act vaudeville show. Its suecess was dne to the clever direction of Johnny Lucas and Joe Dearing. The proceeds of this show were turned over to the scholarship fund. The program read as follows: Act 1—Jerry Havner and his ‘‘Synocopated Jazz Babies.’’ Act 11.—Merle Bish, assisted by a quartet. ‘‘Popular Songs.”’ Act 111.—Johnny Lueas and Joe Dearing in ‘‘A Little Bit of Everything.”’ Act IV—Leonard Richardson and Letha Fulton in ‘‘A Comedy Skit.’’ Sixty-eight THE ECHO Seninr Play On Friday evening, May 27, 1921, the Senior Class Play was given. ‘‘Seven Keys to Baldpate,’’ Geo. M. Cohan’s two act comedy, certaimly furnished ex- cellent entertainment for the crowd which filled the annex that evening. fhe persons who took part, showed unusual talent, and it is expected that some of these young people will be stars of world-wide fame. It is due to the kind direction of Mr. Borst, head of the English De- partment, that the play was such a success. For weeks he practiced with the students and guided them over the rough ways.

SENIOR PLAY CAST Sixty-nine IAI JOO) Y ) Every wide-awake school has an orchestra. In the fall term of 1920 Mr. MeCarthy set out to organize an orchestra for Santa Rosa High School. Ile took what material the school offered and organized it. There were several difficulties to be overcome. On account of the short- age of teachers, some of the members of the orchest ra were forced to take regular subjects the ninth period which handicapped the orchestra. This difficulty was surmounted by giving those pupils the necessary instruction in spare periods and during the noon hour. There were other obstacles but this was the most important. Two programs have been given in assembly, by the orchestra. The first consisted of Manrico Overture, Gavotte, Little Marie, a seranade, One Sweet Nod, by Bennet, and a march, One Flag For All by Rollinson. The second program consisted of Minuet No. 2 by Beethoven, a march, The Boys in Khaki, by Bennett, Barcarole, Tales of Hoffman. by Offenbach, excepts from ‘‘Mari- tana’”’ and ‘‘Martha’’, by Von Suppe Kowtow, and ‘‘Liberty March”? by Ben- ACL. A dance was given by the orchestra. to raise funds for instruments. With the money from this affair, a Buffet low pitched clarinet in A, an extra mouth- piece, and a B flat clarinet were purchased. There are eighteen members of the orchestra at the present time. Those playing the violin are: Erwin Bosworth, Ellsworth Barnett, Harold Baker. Gladys Covell, Orvil Cousineau, Ruth Feliz, Louis Saare, and Judson Steele: the chello; Miss Talbot: the clarinet; Lee Kurlander, and Marion Ratcliffe, Cornet; Eugene Allvenn. and Earl Ol trombone; Billey Schaafsma: and the sen; the saxophone; Cecil Mitchie: the piano, Edith MeGuire, and Lois Covell. The orchestra is not perfect. It has some faults, but considering the dif- ficulties it has labored under. the orchestra can be said to be doing very good. By next year, we should have a perfect orchestra, if the present pro- gress continues. No one has shown more interest in the work, and has given more time to the task of perfecting the orchestra than Mr. McCarthy. Cer- tainly he deserves a lot of credit for giving Santa Rosa High School the one thing it lacked an orchestra. Seventy Wels IOs) ss Governing Board The Governine Board has been suecessful in the numerous undertakings «t the fall and spring terms of 1920 and 1921. This may be accounted for by the fact that there has always been a fair amount of money in the treasury— sufficient to meet any needs which might arise. Student Body cards were sold both terms without difficulty despite the fact that, in the fall term, the dues were raised from seventy-five cents to one collar. This change caused a lively debate in the Governing Board but was finally carried. The Boosters’ Club sold the majority of the tickets with suc- cess. The new constitution was printed, and copies of it were issued to the members of the Student Body. ‘The demand of the athletes of the school caused two amendments to be passed by the Board and be voted through by the students. One amendment was to grant an S. R. to girls winning in in- ter-class contests. The other was to grant an S sweater to those students winning block S’s in three different sports, whether the student should win his S’s in one year or in four. Permission was given to Coach Hodge by the Board, to buy additional football and basketball equipment. He was also allowed the necessary fin- ances to give the football team a dinner on Thanksgiving Day, and to let them sleep at the school for the two days before the football game with Berkeley. The High School decided to give a circus, so the Governing Board grant- ed the permission for a circus to be given by the High School under the aus- pices of the Block S Society, the money resulting from this to be turned over to the treasury of the Student Body. When the time for the annual Student Body Presidents’ Convention to take place, the President of the Student Body was given permission to attend this convention at Santa Ana and have his travelling expenses paid from the High School Student Association treasury. Mr. Steele was granted the permission to bring Senor De Grassi, an ac. complished violinist, to the school with a guarantee of $75.00. Consent was given to the staff of the ‘‘Poreupine’’ to change the paper trom a monthly to a weekly edition. Seventy-one THE ECHO Cadets Any progressive High School has a cadet corps. This is the third year Lf Santa Rosa High School’s cadets, and this year finds them advancing in drill and general military knowledge. The cadets are not yet perfect, they do not drill like ‘‘vets,’’ but in comparison with other high school cadets, they are very good. They have thirty-calibre Springfield rifles for drilling and for long range shooting. On the small range, (fifty foot), in the handball court, the cadets are using twenty-two calibre rifles. There are three swords, one for the cap- tain and one for each leutenant. This term we have four companies, an improvement over last year. They meet twice a week—every Tusday and Thursday.The first company meets during the second period, under Captain Lee, assisted by Samuel Lehrberger, and Lieutenants A. Lucas and B. McCormick. The second company meets during the third period under Captain Snodgrass, with Lieutenants F. Grace and J. Donovan as assistants. The third company meets during the sixth period under Captain T. Grace, with Lieutenants Herbert and Morrill as as- sistants. The fourth company meets during the seventh period under Cap- tain Wade, assisted by Lieutenants Everett, Cowan and Kidd. Major Hodge, whose knowledge of drill and military tacties is complete, has been drilling the companies part of the time. Owing to the fact that he has fad a class in calisthenics during the drill periods, he has not always been able to oversee the drill; consequently, the cadets have been handi- capped. They were unable to go out in the hills and take any extended order work, and were limited to the stacking of arms, inspections, and general close order drill. The company of Captain Lee, the farthest advanced, can stack arms in twelve seconds. They have had several rigid inspections by S. Lehrberger, an ex-soldier who understands the art of giving the company the close “once over,’’? and have passed successfully. Captain Lee deserves credit for this, and his Lieutenants Lucas and MeCormick must not be for- gotten. This company was fortunate in having an ex-soldier who, by the courtesy of Captain Lee, was able to assist them. The officers of the other companies, which are not far behind the first, have been constantly on the alert, detecting and correcting the smallest mistake made. At the end of May, a camp will-be held for the state cadets, each com- pany furnishing five men. Santa Rosa will be able to send four teams con- sisting of five men each. As we have some very good material in the school, if they are able to practice on some large range with the Springfields, Santa Rosa should win a place in the shoot. Our cadets have been somewhat hampered by adverse conditions this vear. Tf the conditions be favorable next year, with the drill already given to the cadets as a foundation upon which to build, we should have the best cadet corps in the state. If so, the officers who whipped the men into shape, studied Seventy-two THE EGHO the drill manual for hours for the knowledge which they imparted to the cadets, should receive the credit due them. And if the high school should turn out the best corps in the state, we must not forget our commandant, who has given us the necessary time to teach us the fundamental prinei- ples of drill upon which to build—Major Hodge. Assemblies There is one thing that is always important in school life—assemblies. This term, the assemblies have been full of the enthusiasm that keeps up the “school spirit.’? Under the leadership of Miss H. Cochrane, the singine, which is essential to a good assembly, has always been successful. The yells, with bill Cowan as leader, have been satisfactory. There have been several speakers from the outside to talk to the stu- dents, among whom was the Rev. Mr. Short, who with Mr. Rosenberg in con- nection with the Jewish Relief Drive, spoke upon conditions in Poland. We have had several musical programs this term. The most im- portant was rendered by the Senor De Grassi, in the Annex. De Grassi is an accomplished violinist and has played for the nobility of Europe. Later in the term, Mr. and Mrs. Stover, evangelists, entertained the students at one of the 4th period meetings. Mr. MeCarthy’s orchestra has performed several times. A patriotic film, the plot of which was ‘‘A Man Without A Country,”’ was flashed on the sereen in the Annex. It took two full periods to be shown. On November 10, Congressman Lea visited our school and spuke to the students about the recent war and what Armistice Day means to us, At the time of the European Relief Drive, four of Miss O’Meara’s pupils spoke upon the conditions in Europe. Clarke Davis, Adelaide Drummond, Helen Bridinger, and Robin Lehrberger were the pupils who spoke. Mr. Weeks, our President-elect also said a few words upon the subject. Among the faculty members who appealed for the suffering Europeans were Mr. Steele, Miss Fisher, Mr. and Mrs. McCarthy and Mr. Hodge. A week later, Joe Dearing spoke upon this subject in connection with the ““pie sale,’’ and Miss Clarke added a few words to that which Dearing said. On the day before Lincoln’s Birthday, Mr. Weeks, our president-elect, read the Second Inaugural Address; Mrs. MeCa rthy read some suitable poems; T. Coon, Ellen Holm read the Original, the Presidential. and the Governor’s Proclamations respectively. Mr. Montgomery, our former principal, was here one day, and he gave a short talk to the students. When the Student Body officers were nominated, Santa Rosa saw one of the best assemblies it ever had. In several of the 4th period sessions, the public speaking class has pre- sented plays to the students. Seventy-three — THE ECHO Rallies One thing which should precede every high school contest is a rally. Rallies are essential in raising the spirit which is often a dominant factor in a game or meet. Coach Hodge has realized the importance of this and before every game or meet of importance for these two terms, we have had a good snappy rally. Undoubtedly the best rally was held before the practice game in football with Berkeley High School. Several teachers spoke to the students and sev- eral of the members of the Student Body gave short talks. Another good, tally was held before our first league game in football, which was to be played against Napa High School on the same day. The basketball rallies were all good ‘‘peppy’’ demonstrations of spirit. Those preceding the Analy games and the San Mateo game were the best during the Basketball season. The members of both teams spoke about the games to be played against Analy in the rallies preceding the games. The rallies which preceded our baseball games were all bubbling over with the enthusiasm which puts life into a team. During track season, we had some lively demonstrations of “‘pep.’’ The day before the C. I. F. meet, a rally was held which filled the track team with life. The students, following Bill Cowan who lead the yells, made noise enough to convince the men that they not only had confidence in them, but that they would also be out to cheer them on during the meet. Considering all in all, the students deserve credit for the vocal support which they gave the teams when they were unable to help the teams by play- ing in the games. School spirit was especially exemplified by the students, at the C. I. F. meet, where over ten schools competed, and Santa Rosa made an exceptionally fine showing in comparisons to the others. Hh : GCIRLS ATHLETICS Seventy-four THE ECHO The Freshman Reception On Saturday, October second, soon after the beginning of the Fall term, the upper classmen welcumed a large class of Freshmen into the school with a reception given in the gymnasium. Of course, dancing was the main feature of the party, and good music was provided, but there were also oth- er attractions. The Grand March was the main feature of the evening. The green ones paraded around the gym, so that everyone could admire them, and at the end jof the march, they were rewarded with sticks of green and white colored candy. Melvin Snodgrass, the student body president, weleomed the new class with a short address, which was answered with enthusiasm by Lorin Johnson, Freshman class president. Then there was a program too. Madame Nazimova (Ernest Baer) de- lighted the audience with her dancing numbers. Joe Dearing, with the as- sistance of John Parmeter, told the fortune of several students to the great discomfort of some of the students present. The Boys’ Glee Club gave sev- eral numbers, under the direction of Miss Cochrane. After the program, the dancing was resumed. Punch was served by members of the cooking class. Spring Freshman Reception The Freshman Reception for the spring term turned out to be a tre- mendous success. Between sixty and seventy Freshmen made their initial bow to the social life of the school. The Freshman class turned out in a body to attend their first school party, and, as the upper classmen were as eager to come as the Freshies were, the result was a huge success. The address of Welcome to the entering class was given by the Student Body President, Maleolm Weeks, together with some good fatherly advice. This was ably answered by Robert Cockburn, the Freshman class president. Though the reception was somewhat delayed by conflicting parties, every- one present was very much pleased with the evenings’ entertainment. Seventy-five THEVECHO Orchestra Benefit Dance Early in February, a benefit dance, under the supervision of Mr. McCar- thy, was held in the gymnasium, as a means of raising funds with which to provide the school orchestra with new musical instruments. The affair was ‘in the nature of a barn dance, and the gymnasium was decorated in keeping with the spirit of the occasion. Joe Dearing and John Lucas provided amusement with a little comedy skit, and their efforts were greatly aided by one of the guests, an old setting hen, who seemed to think that she could be the center of attraction. Afer this feature, the dancing was resumed until late in the evening. As a whole, the party was a great success, both financially and socially. Junior-Senior Dance Soon before the beginning of the second semester, the Junior class of the high school was entertained by the Senior Class with a dance given in thé annex. The evening was enjoyably spent in dancing. The hall was very artis- tically decorated and fine music was supplied. A very pleasant time was en- joyed by all who attended the affair. Those who assisted the Secretary of the Interior in promoting the party were: Miss Letha Fulton, Alfred Lucas and Jack Donovan. The Girls High Jinx The Girls High Jinx, an affair which is given annually for the girls of the school, is the one affair at which the girls lose all dignity and have a grand old frolic. This years ’ Jinx was an unusual success, and the gym was crowded with weird looking people of all descriptions. Little Girls, gypsy maidens, clowns, and even a few Indians were to be found in the midst of the frolic. ‘‘Boys’’ there were a-plenty, altho it is the strict rule that no male creature shall be admitted to the High Jinx. The dancing and fun was interrupted only long enough to witness a short playlet, “‘Pyramus and Thisbe,’’ which was acted by Elizabeth Thomp- son, Sara Jacobsen, and Bella Haynie, and some faney dances given by sev- eral other girls. The feature of the program was the ‘‘New Cotati Speed- way. ’’ Several fast and furious velocipedes were entered in the speedway races. After this the fun started again, and the girls went home satisfied aud ready to be dignified once more. Prizes awarded during the evening were as follows: best couple,, Belma Wheeler and Mary Thorogod, as an Irish cuple; best gentlemans costume, Bella Haynie as Charlie Chaplain; best ladies costume, Mildred Taylor as Sis Hopkins. Junior College Reception The Junior College entertained the Seniors of the high schools on Satur- day evening, May 14th, with a big dancing party. The Seniors of our school attended the affair and were greatly pleased with the hospitality of the Junior. College students. Seventy -six THESEGHO The hall was decorated in a very unique manner. A large Japanese lan- tern was in the center of the floor with all the decorations leading from it to the sides of the hall. The musie was furnished by Hewitts Jazz orchestra, which made an extra effort to delight the dancers. A good number of stu- dents attended, making the party a happy one to be remembered by all. The panch served, was another feature of the party. Ruth Comstock com- pled with the aims of the decoration committee to give the party a Japanese aspect. Four little girls, dressed like Japanese maidens served the punch. They were a decided feature of the party and made a hit with everyone. Zelda Pitkin prepared the decorations and is to be congratulated for the tremendous success of her work. School Party On Saturday, May twenty-first, the high school students held one of the last school parties of the year. The gymnasium was decorated in the Orange and Black, the school col- ors, giving the hall a good appearance. The whole hall was decorated fully and showed up to a great advantage. Along with the artistic decorations, ood musi¢ was on the program. Saare’s orchestra was on the scene, deliver- ing some real live music, and as a consequence the dancing, which was the main feature of the evening, was only enjoyed the more. A large crowd was in attendance and at the close of the evening, the party was acclaimed by all to be a tremendous success. One of the biggest crowds of the season attended the party. The affair was under the usual management of Clifton Morrill, who made an extra effort to put the party over in great style. The floor committee con- sisted of Melvin Snodgrass, Wm. F. Cowan, Jr., and Maleolm C. Weeks. To Morrill, must be given much credit for the success of the party as well as the other parties of the year. With the new administration, which began with the second semester of the year, Clifton Morrill, Secretary of the Interior of the Student Body President’s cabinet, became manager of the social events of the school. To him must be given much eredit for the success of the school parties held dur- ing the semester. Booster’s Club Banquet At one of the cleverest affairs of the year, the Booster’s Club entertain- ed their new members with a handsomely prepared banquet, which will be lone g remembered, along with the other activities of the Booster’s, as being a big success. Miss Connell prepared the evening’s repast, much to the delight of those who were there to enjoy it. During the evening several of the members were called upon to address the club. Miss Daisy Graham, who was a charter member of the club, was one of the welcome visitors and speakers. Among the other speakers were the president of the club, Alfred Lucas, Bernard Noonan, Roland Herbert and Malcolm Weeks. Seventy-seven TRO = Following the banquet, the new members were initiated, thus providing much entertainment for the older members, who conducted the initiation. The Cast Party On the Saturday evening following the operetta, the cast was given a party and dance. It was a wonderful affair. The music was elegant and the refreshments most appetizing. The music room was artistically decor ated with flowers. Shaded lights cast a mellow glow over gay young cou- ples as they drank punch and partook of the dainty refreshments. Wicker- furniture was tastefully scattered about among the flowers, and tired couples found quiet repose in this bower. Finally this party, as all others, came to an end, but still it s memory 1s pleasing, because it was given as a reward for the unt.ring efforts rendered by the students in the operetta, in behalf of th2 schoo!. “THE ECHO” STAFF Seventy-eight THE ECHO) CARL STROVEN STANLEY EVERETT ADELAIDE DRUMMOND JOE BUSSMAN TELS TN EEG] 53] 8B sige 08 oy oon ne eee Sg re ei gee eee Athletic Editor CATHERINE PRESSLEY Literary Editor JEAN MAILER Society Editor HELEN TRUITT Girl’s Athleties ROBIN LEHRBERGER JOE DEARING WDITH MeGUIRE Snapshot Editor ESPN OMI IP BVA lec Se ae eet a eee : - Exchange Editor FRANK GRACE _..

An honorary scholarship society has been formed, and students of excellent standing have been enrolled. Now we want the people of Santa Rosa to cooperate with us, in making this project a suecess- A scholarship fund his been started, but it needs the backing of publi-spirted citizens. Therefore, in behalf of the scholarship fund, we appeal to those interested in higher education. Give freely, and assist in sending some boy or girl to college, A. D. One of the subjects of greatest interest to Santa Rosa High School stu- dents, at the present time, is the immediate need of a new school building. We of the Senior Class, should derive no direct benefit from it, but we have enough interest in the old High, to be a bit concerned as to its future well-fare. When the High School was built, it was considered a very fine building, suitable for accommodating about two-hundred and fifty students. Then it was adequate. But that was twenty-six years ago. Now our enrollment is far over two-hundred and fifty; it is over five-hundred- | When the present building was erected, it was never dreamed that high school education would undergo such development. Now, in order to have rooms for all the classes, many of the class rooms have been divided into smaller rooms which are in- sufficiently heated, lighted and ventilated. Subjects which other High Schools consider essential, we must do without because there are no rooms in which to conduct the classes. We, as students, feel certain that the people in the district do not fully understand the situation, or they would take more interest in removing the disadvantages which confront us.

In the backfield he was one of the best players we had. At running interference and in his terrific tackling he was a men- ace to any opposing team. A. bad injury kept Joe out of several of the games, but he came back with the hard-fighting deter- mination that makes him a feared opponent by every team. In basketball Joe played sticking guard and he was good at it, with- out a doubt. Although he was not a regular member of the team, with experience and training he will develop into a guard of the first rank. Joe is one of the catchers on the baseball team. He was on the receiv- ing end of the battery when Deter pitched anc eh proved throughout the season to be a cool-headed and plucky catcher. Track is Joe’s favorite sport and the events he takes part in are numerous. He generally enters the 120 H. H., mile, half-mile, javelin, and broad jump. [In the N. S. meet Joe won the javelin coming within four inches of breaking the record and he took second in the high hurdles, losing by a few inches to the man who broke the $. N. S. record Joe is another wearer of the all-star block ‘“S” sweater having won in football, baseball and track. He returns to school next fall anc so we expect to hear even biger and better things from him, if that is ble. possi- DONALD KIDD Track, Football, Baseball and Basketball Don Kidd is one of the best all-round ath- letes Santa Rosa High has ever had. Don was the fastest man on the football team and al- though it was his first year at the game, he proved to be a hard fighting half-back with lots of ability. Another year of football and Don will be a wonder. Don is rather small of statue, but his hus- ky build and speed make him an ideal run- ning-guard. Don won his block ‘S’ in the season of 1918 in basketball. He was catch- er on the baseball team for two seasons, but his devotion to track work has lead him to drop baseball. In track Don is without an equal in speed. His events are the 100, 220, shot-put and discus. He won all the spring events at the North-West League meet in 1918 and in 1921 he repeated at the N. W. L. Meets. His time for the 100 is 10:1 and that is going some. Don is a three-letter man and one of the most popular students in school. Eighty-four TAELECHO TOM GRACE Football, Basketball and Baseball Tom was Captain of the 1920 Football Team, and at half-back or right end he ful- filled his duties with great ability. Tom Was injured several times during the sea- son but his gritty nature kept him on _ the team and he came out consistently in spite of them. Tom was a deadly tackler, and a game, hard-fighting backfield man. A record of the football season will show what Tom’s influence did for the team. In_ basketball Tom has held down the forward position for two years and his accuracy in passing and shooting and his knowledde of the game yave been big factors in our taking league 10nors. Tom can play any position on a_ baseball field but his regular position is first base, where he has played for two years. His steady errorless playing of the initial corner las steadied the team many a time when a blow-up seemed inevitable. Tom graduates this June and Santa Rosa High School will miss him, for he has been a splendid athlete and schola Tom is also a yossessor of the Triple “S” sweater—and Santa Rosa High wishes him good luck anid suceess in his college days. DAVID KYL Football Basketball, Baseball and Track Dave Kyle entered Santa Rosa High in the fall term. He came out for football just before the league games, and his 190 pounds of weight and his record of 10:2 in the hun- dred made him an ideal back. No small part of the football’s teams success is due to Kyle’s ability to smash through the line and make long runs around the end, In basketball Dave played “center and _ here again his weight and speed made him one of the main sta) of the team. His team work and shooting in the game with Analy will be remembered as one of the features of that game. When baseball season came Kyle was on _ the _ pitcher's mound and he proved to be a worthy member of the nine. His fast curves and speedy straight ball deceived many an opposing bat- ter. Dave didn’t come out for track until late in the season because he had _ hitherto never taken part in Track events. In the N. W. L. Meet Kyle took first in the discus with a heave of. 111 ft. 5 in.; second in the 220 yard dash and third in the shot put. In the S N. S. Meet Kyle broke the discus record with a throw of 111 ft. 1 in. besides taking and winning the shot put. Bighty -five HEV ECHO JOHN LUCAS Baesball, Basketball and Track John Luca ; one of the few all-star men of Santa Rosa High. He has held down his position on the baseball team for three consecutive seasons. His playing at second base, and his base-running and _ safe-hitting ability have always made him one of the leading members of the team. He won his letter in basketball on the 130-lb. team in 1919-20 when the team came very close to vrinning the league championship. In track innie won his block ‘S’ in the C. I. F. Meet. proved to be one of the most valuable ymbers of the 120-lb. Track Team and was gely responsible for the successful season. in graduates this June and the school 1 lose a splendid athlete and popular STACY LEE Footbail, Baseball and Basketball Stacy’s speedy work on the field and his gameness made him one of the leading men on the football squad. He could always be counted upon to fill a half-back or end’s position with great ability. In_ basketball Stacy was at his best. He was captain of the 1919-20—13¢C-lb. Team that placed second in league honors and he filled the position of forward as very few could have done it. Stacy was also a forward on this year’s team and his remarkable speed and accurate shoot- ing proved him to be a wonder on the court. Baseball was another sport in which Stacy excelled. He won his block S’ when the 1920 baseball team placed second in the sectional title for the league championship. His field- ing and hitting made him one of the _ best men on the team. Stacy leaves us at gradua- 5 tion and Santa Rosa High will miss a fine athlete and a jolly, good fellow. VINTON DETER Football and Baseball “Vint” was our lengthy right guard and he surely has the makings of a good lines- man. This year was his. second football and he held down the guard posi- specialty tion with great ability. Deter’s was opening holes for the backs through. He was right there when to stopping a line buck and his good nature and willingness influenced the rest line to not a little extent. In baseball Deter occupied the mound as one of our hurlers. Although this his second year of pitching he has that he has the goods and with the proper training and experience he will make good. “Vint” pitched his best game of ball the Sonoma High Nine. Deter has won his block ‘ in football and basebs graduates this June. Good luck “Vint” in whatever you undertake, shall always remember you as an athlete and a scholar. ERNEST NEVERS Footbail and Basketball Ernie Nevers came from Superior, Wis- consin at the beginning of the fall term. He soon proved to be one of the best athletes this school has ever had, and in addition he was a popular student. As full-back Er- nie was the mainstay of the team. His abil- ity at punting, forward-passing and every phase of the American game was a wonder- ful asset to our team. Ernie also gave sig- nals and his encouragement in the hard games was greatly responsible for our suc- cessful football season. In the game _ with Berkeley we can never forget how Ernie tried his hardest,hemade our only _ score in the first game and our only try in the second game for the semi-finals of the state championship. In basketball Ernie proved to be one of the best forwards that ever played on a_ court in this league. He was a wonderful shot from any position on the floor, and true passer; and as Captain of the team his ex- hortations and encouraging word and smile helped the team to many a victory. In the Petaluma game Ernie made 32 out of 42 points. When Ernie left for Superior after the Petaluma game, the school lost a super- athlete and a splendid fellow. With him the team could have made a close bid for the state championship which we came very close to getting. Ernie will long be remembered and the school will always join in wishing him every possible success in athletes and scholarship in his university career. year of to tear it came of the was but proved against ull.

Joe Was Captain of the swift 130 pouna Team of 1921 that won the first honors of two leagues and placed third in the State Championship. He was running forward and a better player has never had a place on a 130 pound team in the school. Joe could start from anywhere on the court and the ball would invariably go through the basket for two points. In shooting free goals, Joe was unsurpassed by any player during the season. The ball semed always to go straight through the basket. In the Analy game Joe made 9 out of 10 free baskets, an enviable record for any basketball player. In track Joe runs the 440-yard dash, 880-yard, the mile and the relay, alternating events in the different meets. His best race is the 440, and in the N. W. L. Meet on our High School Oval Joe won the 440 after a sensational fin- ish, in which he passed Meyer, of Analy, who was conceded first place, at the start of the race. Joe has won his block “S” in Basketball and Track and he has two more years of school. FRANK GRACE Football and Baseball Frank Grace has been one of the mainstays of Santa Rosa High baseball teams ever since he entered high school. His fielding ability and his knack of clouting the ball has al- Ways made him one of the most valuable men on the team. Frank also won his block letter in football in the season of ’20. Al- though he had never played the game before, he came out and worked hard, showing great ability on the line. Frank was best at the tackle position where his hard-fighting, and fast work made him a valuable unit of the team. Frank will be back at high next year, anda splendid report is expected from him. Eighty-eight RALPH DEVOTO Football, Basketball, Baseball Ralph was our husky quarterback on the 1920 football team. On offense he played half-back and his line plunges led up to many of the touchdowns scored during the season. As a defensive quarterback Ralph could not be excelled. Ralph was the individual star of the Tamalpais Union High game for the League Championsship with three touch-downs to his credit out of the four scored. The last was made on a 75-yard run down a muddy field after in- tercepting a forward pass. In _ basketball Ralph could not be beaten for the position of standing guard. In the Analy game he showed his ability at sticking to his man, and throughout the season his impenetrable defense was one of the reasons for the small scores of the oposing teams. Ralph played right field most of the time during the baseball season and he was always good for any ball hit in his direction. Besides being handy with the stick, Ralph has won his “S” in Football and Basketball, and as he will be back next fall the School will ex- pect big things from such an all-around athlete and good fellow as Ralph has proved himself to be. CLIFTON MORRILL Football, Basketball Baseball Clif was our speedy left end on the football team and his hard-tackling and spiking tactics have taken the pep out of many a team. He was also one of the best men on the teams at catch- ing forward passes, and his playing in the Berkeley game featured his sea- son’s efforts on the football team. Bas- ketball has been Clif’s game for three years, and at the guard position he can’t be beaten. His sticking ability along with his shooting and passing has given him that passion each year. His speedy piaying was responsible for a great many of the wins during the basketball season. In baseball Clif also excels, as he does in all other sports. He has been a member of the baseball team for three years and third base- man for the last two years. His con- sistent fielding and handling of hot grounders made him one of the best fielders on the team. And with the bat Clif was the best man on the team. In the Sonoma game he made five hits out of five times at bat. Clif is an- other one of the select few who have a All-Star sweater. Clif leaves us this graduation and he is another one of the big athletes that will be mised by the school. Everybody wishes Clif all success at Stanford and feels con- fident he will make good. Kighty-nine WVAL TIVELOO O a8 S) a zal - i = Wale Ago BAT pestis ts Pes hare CY alee THE SEASON The fall of 1919 saw football reintroduced into the Santa Rosa High School after a lapse of many years. Fellows who had never seen a foot- ball game turned out for practice and were developed into a creditable team. Owing to the inexperience we were beaten throughout the season, but our defeats were certainly to our advantage, for we learned football on the small end of the score. The fall of 1920 saw different results. We won the northwest section ot the state losing only to Berkeley who won the northern state champ ton- ship. Since experience is the most important factor in developing any foot- ball team, the renown of the ORANGE AND BLACK spreads throughout the west with the 1921 football team. Preliminary Season. Enthusiasm reigned supreme when Coach Hodge issued the first call for football men. At the first meeting, held September 18, there were fifty fellows present. Practice began on the following day and made the prospects for the 1920 football season look bright. Coach Hodge assisted by Mr. Ditman, a former University of Michigan center, did wonders along the line of breaking in inexperience player. Tackling practice, falling on the ball, interference, line- bucking tactics, and signals were taught and gone through the first week. Most of last year’s men were out in their moleskins. They were Morrill (end), “Sowan (tackle), Alexanderson (guard), Karnes (center), Deter (guard), ‘Feliz (tackle), Penry (tackle), Stocker (center), T. Grace (backfield), Al. Lueas (backfield), and Joe Dearing (backfield). A new man, Ernie Nev- ers, formerly of Superior High School, Wisconsin, soon proved to us that he had everything a fullback should have. He had an educated toe and was accurate in forward passing, a good plunging line bucker and in addition he was a brilliant open field man. Ninety-one WHESE ClO sae a A serimmage contest was held the first day of practice owing to the fact that a game was scheduled for the following Saturday. Our field was hard and brought many fast games to Santa Rosa. Santa Rosa 7; Richmond 0. Our first game was played at Richmond. Despite the fact that we had nad but three scrimmage practices, the game was close and hard fought, Santa Rosa triumphing by the score of 7 to 0. Although hampered by the absence of Devoto, last year’s fullback, Santa Rosa more than held her own. The game started with Richmond kicking off. The ball was received by Nevers who ran for twenty-five yards, bringing the ball near the center of {he field. Line bucking as well as end runs, and forward passes were tried consistently by both sides, but neither side received any success. The teams were evenly matched in the first half. Our backfield was superior but our inexperienced line weakened against the strong and well trained Richmond High line. In the second half Santa Rosa’s line stiffened and tore wide gaps in the Richmond line. And the backfield with the aid of good interference march- ed down the field gaping five and ten yards at a time, through repeated line bucks. One yard from Richmond’s goal Richmond held Santa Rosa at a stand- still for three downs, but Santa Rosa was not to be denied. Nevers carrying the ball plunged over the center for the only touchdown of the game. The ball was converted by Nevers. The following week Ralph Devoto returned to school and was promptly placed on the first team. Santa Rosa lined up as follows in this game: Morrill, 1. e.; Feliz, 1. t Alexanderson, |. g.; Karnes, ¢; R. G. Penry, r. t.; Lee, r. e.; Lucas, q. b.; Tom Grace, 1. h.; L tH. Dearing, r. h.; Nevers, f. b. Substitutes: Johnson, Griffin and Stocker and F. Grace. “9 Santa Rosa 25, San Rafael 0. Consistent playing won the football game with San Rafael High for Santa Rosa. Santa Rosa started off by Nevers circling around the San Rafael end for his first touchdown of the game. Line bueks followed, bringing Nevers over the line for the second touchdown. During the second half Morrill, left end, caught a forward pass and carried it for fifty yards before being brought down. Touchdowns were scored as follows: Lueas, one; Dearing. one: and Nevers, three. Nevers converted all of these. As for the individual work in the game, Nevers played the most sensa- tional game ever witnessed at San Rafael. The Santa Rosa line-up was as follows: Morrill, 1. e.; Cowan, 1. t.; Feliz. 1. g.; Stocker, C.; Deter, r. g.; Penry, r. t.; Johnson, r.. e..; Lucas, q.. b..; Dearing, 1.. h..; Devoto, r. h.: Nevers. f. b. Substitutes—Alexanderson for Feliz and F. Grace. Ninety-two LAESECHO: Santa Rosa 3, Berkeley 47. Santa Rosa played her first game against the Berkeley High School ag- gregation on her home field. When the final smoke of battle had cleared away Berkeley had won with the score of 47-3. Although the score was large, the game was the hardest fought one ever put by Santa Rosa. In the first quarter Santa Rosa succeeded in bringing the ball up to the 35 yard line where Acting Capt. Nevers made a drop-kick, making the only score of the game for Santa Rosa High. The second quarter was Santa Rosa’s. The ball was brought down to Berkeley’s five-yard line by the repeated line bucks of Devoto, through the left side of Santa Rosa’s line, but was brought back to the twenty yard line by a penalty. In the second half, Berkeley with a new team sueceeded in swamping Santa Rosa with their brilliant open field work and with their good inter- ference. But during the second half the ball was again advanced with the aid of wide gaps torn through the Berkeley line by both the left and right sides of the Santa Rosa line. But was lost by a penalty. Penry, our right tackle, was badly injured during the battle, breaking three ribs. Morrill played a wonderful game with many effective tackles, Cowan was responsible for many of the large holes made through the Berkeley line and deserves unlimited credit. The line-up was as follows: Morrill, l.e.; Cowan, lt.; Alexander. icra Stocker, ¢.; Deter, r.g.; Penry, r.t.; Johnson, r.e.; T. Grace, q.; Lucas, Lh.: Dearing, r.h.; Nevers, f.g. Substitutions :—Devoto for T. Grace, Feliz for Alexanderson, Alexander- son for Cowan, Karnes for Stocker, Kidd for Dearing. Santa Rosa 0, University High 14. In a sea of mud Santa Rosa played its fourth game of football opposing University High School of Oakland. The morning was rainy and the Santa Ge ea Ninety-three Rosa players were stiff and cold from a sixty mile drive. The game was scheduled for 10 o’elock. Santa Rosa kicked off. McClain the quarter-back and captain succeeded in making two touchdowns during the first half. In the second half Santa Rosa staged a comeback. Karnes center of Santa Rosa, made man? sensational and effective tackles besides tearing holes in University’s line. Nevers, Lucas, Grace and Devoto made many gains tak- ing the play down the field, breaking through the University’s defense. At the ten yard line University’s line stiffened and repulsed Santa Rosa. Santa Rosa’s greatest ground gainer, the forward pass, could not be- come effective because of the mud-covered ball. Although we did not keep University High from crossing the line, the game was a credit to us. Univer- sity High last year was 41-0 in favor of University High while this year they defeated us 14-0. The following week our team was strengthened by the addition of Kyle a 197-pound man and a former student of Hitchcock Military Academy. He was to be responsible for many long end runs which netted us many yards. The line-up was: Morrill, l.e.; Cowan, 1.t.; Alexanderson, l.g.; Karnes, ¢; Deter, r.g.; Feliz, r.t.; Johnson, r.e.; Devoto, q..; Lucas, Lh.; T. Grace, r-h.; Nevers, f.b. Substitutes—Lee, Ward and Stocker, Grace. Santa Rosa 14, Mt. Tamalpais Military Academy 7. This game proved to be the turning point of the season and despite the fact that M. T. M. A. had previously defeated University High, and that Morill, luueas, Alexanderson and Penry were unable to play, because of injuries. Santa Rosa put up the greatest game of the season. Straight football brought the ball down the field to the ten yard line where Santa Rosa was re- pulsed by the consistent playing of the Academy players. Santa Rosa was bothered in the first half by many brilliant end runs, and the excellent inter- ference given by the backs of the Tamalpais team, which netted the Academy seven points. In the second half Kyle played in great form, making repeated end runs, one sixty yards, and twenty and thirty yards at other effective attempts and giving our team their first touchdown. Nevers our stellar fullback made a sensational catch, intercepting a forward pass thrown by Tamalpais, and run- ning forty yards for our second touchdown. Karnes and Johnson did superior work on the line. The line-up was: Lee, l.e.; Karnes, l.t.; Ward, Le.: Stocker, ¢; Deter, r.g.; ¥. Grace, r.t.; Johnson, r.e.; Devoto, q.b.; T. Grace, Lh. : Kyle, r.h-; Nevers, f-b- Substitutions: Cowan for Karnes; Feliz for F. Grace: Karnes for Ward. The following week practice was delayed because of a week of school vacation. 2 eae : Santa Rosa 20, Hitchcock Military Academy 0, : After a weeks’ idleness Santa Rosa put on the moleskins, and trounced Hitchcock to the tune of 20 to 0. The game was played on a hot day, and the Ninety-four Meld, INKGalo team lacked the pep of former games. During the first half, the ball was kept in Hitchcock territory, Santa Rosa making one touchdown when Nevers completed a forward pass. During the second half our team snapped out of its dream, and made two touchdowns, Kyle carrying the ball over the line by repeated plunges, and Nevers running around the end, for forty yard, placing the ball between Hitchcocks’ coveted goal posts. The first and last touchdowns were converted by Nevers, but his attempt at the conversion of the second failed. The line-up was as follows: Morrill, l.e.; Cowan, 1.; Alexanderson, 1g. ; Stocker, ¢.: Deter, r.¢.; Feliz, r.t.; T. Grace, a.e.; Devoto, q.; Dearing, 1.h.; Kyle, r.h.; Nevers, f-b.. Substitutions: Ward for Deter, Penry for Alexanderson Santa Rosa 23; Richmond 0. Santa Rosa started the game by Nevers making a thirty-five yard drop kick in the first quarter. Richmond’s line was heavy and strong, and gains were not frequent through their line. But yards were made consistantly by the greatest aerial and open field attack of the season. Nevers made the first touchdown in the second quarter by a brilliant end run. In the second half accurate passing and brilliant catches gained Santa Rosa two touchdowns. Morrill, left end, completed a forward pass by run. ning sixty yards to a touchdown. Kidd, a substitute, proved his ability byl breaking through Richmond’s defense, and running fifty yards, completing the second forward pass of the game. The game ended with Santa Rosa about to make its fourth touchdown, the ball being carried down the field by re- peated line bucks. Nevers failed to convert one touchdown, but the other two attempts proved successful. The line-up was as ee Morrill, l.e.; Cowan, 1. t.; Alexanderson, l.g.; Stocker, ¢.; Deter, r.g.; Feliz, r Tom Grace, YT. 3 Devoto, q.b.; Kyle, l.h.; Kidd, r.h.; Nevers, f-b. Substitutions: Penry for Feliz; Feliz for Deter; F. Grace for Cowan; Ward for Kidd. THU sei SK Ninety-five Santa Rosa 42, Napa 2. This was our first league game and Napa brought over several hundred rooters and was fully confident of bringing home the baéon. But to their utter disappointment the game ended with Santa Rosa on the long end of the score. Napa kicked off, Devoto receiving the ball. He tore down the field for thizty yards and Santa Rosa immediately started its scoring machine. Dear- ing,with the aid of good interference and a strong line plunged down the field for the first touchdown. In the second quarter, Kyle left-halfback finding his weight and speed a great advantage to him annexed another six points by varied line bucks. Nevers converted. At the close of the first half, Napa attempted a drop kick which fell short. Santa Rosa placed the ball back of her goal line by rules of the game a touchback, and the ball was to go to the twenty-yard line. But the umpire observine a technical break in the rules, claimed the play was a safety, giving Napa her only two points of the game. In the third quarter aerial tactics were used, and seven points were gained by Kidd completing a forward pass and running forty yards to a touchdown. Repeated line-bucks took the play down to Napa’s territory and the superiority of Santa Rosa’s line brought Grace over the line once and Nevers twice. Ney- ers converted all of his tries. The team lined up as follows: Morrill, left end; Cowan. Lt.: Alexander- son, l.g.; Stocker, ¢.; Deter, r.g.; Feliz, r.t.: T. Grace. r.e.: Devoto, q.b.; Kyle, l. h. b.; Dearing, r.h; Nevers. f. b. Substitutions—Penry for Feliz; Feliz for Deter: Kidd for Kyle: T. Grace for Dearing; Johnson for T. Grace: F. Grace for Cowan; Ward for Alexand- erson; Lee for Johnson. Santa Rosa High 25, Tamalpais Union High 3. When Coach Hodge’s proteges and Tamalpais lined up against one an- other for the most important game of the season, they stood ankle deep in mud, waiting for the shrill blast from the umpire. Hampered by the absence of Dearing, left half-back, who was out of the game because of injuries, Santa Rosa more than held their own with Kidd, a capable substitute, doing excellent work. Because of the mud, an aerial at- tack could not become so effective as the straight football which w Our scoring machine was started when. afte as used. ra series of line bucks, Nevers went ver the line for the first touch-down. Tamalpais, by recovering a fumble, managed to bring a play down the field to our thirty yard line, where an attempt for a field goal from a difficult angle was tried and proved successful. This gave Tamalpais her only points for the game. During the second half Santa Rosa Hich out-fought, out-smashed and out- generaled the Tamalpais aggregation. All of the line-bucking tacties known were used in bringing Santa Rosa over the line for three more touchdowns. Santa Rosa’s line was decidedly superior to that of Tamalpais. Holes large enough for the back field to gain ten and fifteen yards were repeatedly Ninety-six made. In dealing with individual glory for the game the work of Devoto, ieft half-back. who made a sensational run of seventy-five yards, straight-arm ing Tamalpais’ 190 pound full-back, for a goal, should be mentioned The mud making the ball heavy, kept Nevers from converting more than one out of four tries: The game ended twenty-five to three, with Santa Rosa, High School Foot Bail champions of the Northwest Section of the California In- terscholastic Federation. For the following week Santa Rosa High School installed a training table for the team which was to meet Berkeley High for the Championship of the North Coast Section. The team lined up as follows: Morrill, l.e.; Cowan, 1.t.; Alexanderson, .; Stocker, ¢.; Feliz, r.g.; o.; Penry, r.t.; Johnson, r.e.; T. Grace, q.; Devoto} b. Substitutes: Karnes for Alexanderson; Grace for Cowan; Stroven for .; Kyle, r.h.; Nevers, { ‘ohnson; A. Lueas for T. Grace; Petray for Devoto; Lee for Morrill. Santa Rosa High 0; Berkeley High 61. On the wet and soggy field of the University of California, Santa Rosa was decisively beaten by the Berkeley High Team. During the first half, Berkeley High went over the line for six touch-downs. Berkeley’s well-trained and heavy line tore wide holes through our first defense, through which the secondary defense of Berkeley plunged for repeated gains. The interference viven to their back-field was excellent, and proved a stumbling stone for Santa Rosa. During the second-half, Santa Rosa staged a come-back, Berkeley go.. ing over our lne three times. The ball was kept continuously in Berkeley’s territory, and touchdowns should have been made by Santa Rosa. Nevers tried a field goal from the forty-five yard line, but was unsuccessful because of the difficult angle from which he kicked the ball. Morrill and Nevers played a sensational game. Morrill, left-end, caught several long and accurate passes thrown by Nevers, annexing thirty and forty yards at different periods for Santa Rosa. The game ended Santa Rosa’s chance for the State Champion- ship. The line-up was: Morrill, Le.; Feliz, 1.t.; Alexanderson, l.g.; Stocker, ¢.; Deter, r. g.; Penry, r.t.; T. Grace, r..e..; Devoto, q.; Kyle, 1-h.; Dearing, r.h.; Nevers, f.b. Substitutes: F. Grace for Feliz, Lucas for Dearing, Johnson for T. Grace, Ward for Stocker.

Er Rafael University High School Tamalpais Military Academy Hitchcock Military Academy Richmond High School Napa High Sehool Tamalpais High Sehool Berkeley High School NEVERS Ninety-eight THEECHO Forecast For 1921. In American football, experience, as all followers of the game know, is the most important to the team. The 1921 team will be fortunate, having on it men with two years’ experience on the same team. Devoto and Dear- ing will be Santa Rosa’s oldest and heaviest backfield men. Both have had two years’ experience as regulars on the first team. Noonan and Petray, backfield men of last years’ second team, should easily be picked for a back- field position. The line will be easily as powerful as the 1920 line. Cowan, for two years a regular left tackle on the first team, will still be with the school. Ward, substitute left guard, Stocker, regular center, F. Grace, sub- . ‘ . . . stitute right tackle, and Johnson, regular right end with a year‘s experience, will also be with the team. These men with the aid of a few new recruits will be made into the strongest team of this section and should again win the laurels for football. Santa Rosa High School Second Team. Our second team played two games during the season, losing one and winning one. Both were played against the second team of Hitchcock Mili- tary Academy. These players deserve unlimited credit as they held our first team to more than one scoreless practice game. These players will not find it hard to hold the positions of the eight first team men graduating and should be able to keep the league championship inside Santa Rosa. Santa Rosa High Second Team, 6; Hitchcock Second Team, 0. Aerial tactics were used by Santa Rosa and resulted in bringing Santa Rosa six points; Petray catching a forward pass thrown by Noonan and going over the line for the only touchdown of the game. The field betmg soft and extremely dusty, the ball was kept from being converted. Santa Rosa High Second Team, 2; Hitchcock Second Team, 6, Three weeks later the Santa Rosa High second team again played Hitch- cock. The game was slow and many arguments during the game were caused by the raw deal handed to us by the Hitchcock umpire. On three different occasions the ball was brought over the line only to be brought back and given to Hitchcock. The game ended six to two in Hitcheock’s favor, and ended the season for the second team. Ninety-nine AVOL TIVELAMSVEA CGALINIINA o S) ea) ea) ab = Hundred One Wish IOs) The Basketball Season of 1921 is over, but the records made by the teams have become a proud part of the athletic history of the Santa Rosa High School. The Unlimited Basketball Team under the training of Coach Hodge had a wonderful season with a long string of victories, until they lost the North-West League Championship by one point in the final game with Mt. Tamalpais Union High School. The 130-Pound Basketball Team in rising from an obscure position to the League Championship of the North-West Sec- tion and the Championship of Alameda County set the most sensational record of any team in the C. I. F. San Mateo High won the final game for the North-Coast Section first place honors by a narrow margin after our team had traveled over a hundred miles to play them on their own court. The record set by the Lightweight Team should long stand as an inspiration to all ath- letic teams wearing the colors of Santa Rosa High. A review of the Basketball games of the season show that out of twenty eames played by both teams only three games were lost, and those by the very closest of scores. Santa Rosa High vs. Tomales High The first game of the season for Santa Rosa was with Tomales High. The game was a walk-away from the start to finish, and although the team was not yet in real form, they won easily from the Tomales five. The team fought hard, however, from start to finish for every player was trying to make sure of his position on the team. The final score of the game was 52 to 10 in favor of Santa Rosa. Santa Rosa High vs. Healdsburg High The Santa Rosa team was now rounding into form and in their second vame, one with the Healdsburg quintet, a fast, close contest was expected. Healdsburg had proved to be one of the hardest opponents during the previous season and so the Santa Rosa team looked for a hard game. The game was closely contested throughout and the small court and the lack of technical knowledge of the game, caused many fouls to be called. Healdsburg made most of her points by free-goals. The playing of Ernie Nevers was the feature of the game. Strong defense put up by the Santa Rosa One Hundred One guards prevented the Healdsburg forwards from scoring. The game was un- certain until the end of the last half when the Santa Rosa five began to roll up the score until there was no doubt as to the better team. The game ended with Santa Rosa on the leading end of a large score of 32 to 14. Santa Rosa High vs. Mt. Tamalpais Academy. Santa Rosa met her old football rival at San Rafael in what proved to be one of the closest and hardest-fouzght games of the season. The eame was played on an irregular court and this was very much of a handicap. How- ever, Santa Rosa gave the Academy team a hard contest and it was anybody’s game up to the last quarter when the Academy placed themselves in the lead with a field goal. The contest closed with The Tamalpais Academy five a winner by one point. The score was 20 to 19. NORTH-WEST LEAGUE SERIES. Santa Rosa High vs. Healdsburg High. The first league game was to be played with Healdsburg High on our court. The Healdsburg five came down determined to defeat their opponents, Dut it was all to no avail. This game was not as closely fought as the previous game with the same team and the score kept going higher and higher with Santa Rosa always on the long end of th epoints. Kyle, our big, husky center, deserves mention in this game, as his shooting from under the basket was responsible for a great many of our points. The guards played an all- round good game and Nevers and Grace at forwards made a wonderful scor- ing machine. The final score of our first league game resulted in a score of 38 to 20. Santa Rosa High vs. Sonoma High, Sonoma High was our next opponent for league honors. The streneth of Sonoma’s quintet was unknown but the game proved an easy victory for the team wearing the Orange and Black. Sonoma Hieh fought hard and de- serves a great deal of credit for the game they played but the superior team- work of the Santa Rosa five was too strong for them. The final score gave Sonoma 12 points and the Orange and Black 36 points, Santa Rosa High vs. Petaluma High. The third game of the series was keenly contested from beginning to end. The Petaluma Five had a combination of heavy players who knew basketball well, and they could have made a good showine on any court. At the start of the game Santa Rosa five knew they would have to play a hard, fast game to come out winners. The first half was indecisive and the Petaluma team did their best to gain a lead that would give them the confidence to win. The Petaluma forwards could not break through the defense of Morrill and Devoto at guard posi- tions, both of whom were playing air-tight ball. At the beginning of the second half the score stood to in favor of Santa Rosa. It was then that Capt. Ernie Nevers began the most sensational scor- One Hundred Two ing ever seen on any court in the country. Ernie had been scoring steadily in the first part of the game but it wasn’t until the last half that he began a scoring rampage which gave us the strong victory. The score when the final whistle blew was 42 to 30 in favor of Santa Rosa. Santa Rosa High vs. Analy High. In the semi-final contest for the Championship of the N. W. L. Santa Rosa met her ancient athletic rival, Analy, on the Analy court. The game proved to be one of the closest and hardest-fought contests ever waged be- iween the two schools, and it wasn’t until the final quarter that the Santa Rosa quintet proved their superiority over the Blue and White. When the whistle blew at the start of the game, the Analy team immediately began to score. The court was strange and it wasn’t until the second quarter that the Santa Rosa five began to play in their regular form. Ernie Nevers, who had returned to Wisconsin, was missed in this game but Rol Herbert and Tom Grace at forward positions, played in great style when they became used to the court. The second half was full of thrills from start to finish. Both teams were so evenly matched that the winner could not be picked until the very end of the game. During the third quarter the Santa Rosa five began to cut down the Analy lead, and the score was tied, the confidence that means victory re- turned to the team and was evident in their playing. The score kept going back and forth with first one team ahead and then the other. At the end of the game the Analy defense broke down and Santa Rosa on a wonderful ral- ly of team-work and basketshooting won the game from the Analy five by the score of 39 to 29. Santa Rosa High vs. Tamalpais Union High. The last game of the series for the Championship of the North-West Section of the C. I. F. was played on our court with The Tamalpais High quin- tet. The game was undoubtedly the fastest, and hardest of the season. Santa Rosa did not play in the same form they had displayed in the game with Ana- ly, and the breaks were against us. Both teams were as evenly matched as any two fives that ever played on our court, and at no time was either team far enough in the lead to relieve the tension of the game. The playing of Tom Grace at forward was one of the features of the vame, as Was that of Morrill, our fast, running guard, who made several long shots during the game and held the opposing forward helpless in scoring points. The second half lead up to one of the closest finishes ever made in a basket-ball game. With a tie score and but one minute to play a technical foul was called on Santa Rosa. The ball went through the hoop as the whistle blew, Tamalpais winning by one point the Championship of the North-West Section. One Hundred Three Wale, JRC ALO) = TEAM BASKETBALL 130 LB. THE ECHO REVIEW OF 130 POUND GAMES. Preliminary Season Santa Rosa 130s vs. Tomales 130s. Santa Rosa High had one of the best light-weight teams in the history: of the school and the first victim was the Tomales five. The Santa Rosa team played rings around their opponents in shooting and team-work. The game ended 48 to 12. Santa Rosa 130s vs. Healdsburg 130s. This was another victory for the Santa Rosa 130 pound team and the ‘game was never in doubt from start to finish. The playing of Kerrigan at forward and Lyttaker at guard was a feature of this game. Santa Rosa 130s vs. Mt. Tamalpais Military Academy The third game of the season for the 130s resulted in an additional vic- tory. The lhight-weights were now going in their regular form under the coaching of Mr. Hodge, and although the Academy boys played hard they were obliged to bow before the superior playing of the Santa Rosa Midgets. N. W. L. SERIES Santa Rosa High 130s vs. Healdsburg High 130s The first league game of the season for the 130 pound team was an easy win. The light-weight team played together in a way that could only result in a well-earned victory. The play of Kerrigan at forward and Lyttaker at guard were two of the attractions of the game. The final score was 36 to 18 in favor of the Santa Rosa 130s. Santa Rosa High 130s vs. Sonoma High 130s. The second game of the schedule was with Sonoma High who had given the dight-weight team a hard contest the season before. This game, however, J t urned out to be a decisive victory featured by work of the Santa Rosa agegre- gation. The score at the end of the game stood 46 to 19 in favor of Santa Rosa. Santa Rosa High 130s vs. Petaluma High 130s, ; The Santa Rosa 130 pound team had a hard contest with the Petaluma light-weights but the consistent shooting of the Santa Rosa forwards was too much for the Petaluma scoring combination, which was held down by the un- breakable defense of Lyttaker and Thompson. The playing of Buckett, the little Petaluma forward deserves mention but the team lacked the team-work necessary to put over a victory on the Santa Rosa 130s. The score stood 35 to 19 with Santa Rosa on the long end when the whistle blew. Santa Rosa High 130s vs. Analy High 130s. In the contest with Analy the Santa Rosa Light-weights had an easier victory than had been expected. This was one of t he best games the 130s played during the season. Their team-work was wonderful to watch and the One Hundred Five —— THE ECHO - Analy 130 pound quintet was unable to keep the score from rolling up. Lyt- taker was the star of the game with Capt. Kerrigan at the forward position a close second. lLyttaker held his opposing forward scoreless and played a sen- sational game. The free-goal shooting of Joe Kerrigan was a feature of the contest. The score at the end of the game was 29 to 11 with the Santa Rosa 130 pound team at the top. Santa Rosa High vs. Tamalpais Union High, The Santa Rosa 130s took the floor determined to win the League Cham- pionship from the school that had defeated them the season before. It was a hard-fought and closely contested vame from beginning to end with both teams playing their hardest. The first place in the North-West Section went to Capt. Kerrigan’s ‘‘Gang.’’? The score was 28-20, Santa Rosa High 130s vs. Berkeley High 130s The big game of the basketball season was with the Berkeley High 130s winner of the Alameda County league. The game was played on our court and the outcome of the game seemed very uncertain as Berkeley High has a reputation for turning out wonderful athletic teams. The game promised to be a fast one and Santa Rosa Lightweights knew they would have to play their hardest to win. The game started with a rush and Berkeley immediately started to score. The lead in points kept veering from one side to the other with Berkeley seem- ing to be in the lead the most of the time. The Santa Rosa team were not.playing their best at the start of the game, In the third quarter Capt. Kerrigan was knocked out, unconscious for several minutes, but he insisted on staying in the game. From that point on Santa Rosa scored time after time. Berkeley used many substitutes but could not hold the Santa Rosa team, which was playing the best game it had played on the local court. The last quarter saw our team walking away from the Berk- elites who were unable to stem the advancing score by any means known to them. The final whistle ending the game resulted in the score of 27 to 16; with the Santa Rosa High 130s team Champions of two leagues. Santa Rosa High 130s vs. San Mateo High 130s. The final game of the season for the Championship of the North Coast Section of the C. I. F. was played with San Mateo High at San Mateo. The hundred-mile trip by machine, with every player on edge, was very trying to the team, and the large court, which was over regulation size, afforded the second substantial reason for the team losing by the narrow margin that they did. The game was very close, and at no time was victory certain for either team. San Mateo had a good team and they had the initial advantage of playing on their own court. The free throw line was not regulation length and consequently Capt. Kerrigan was unable to shoot the free goals which might otherwise have won the game. The final score was 26 to 14, in favor of San Ma- One Hundred Six MakvECH®© ‘eo. A protest was entered by Coach Hodge on several warranted complaints, and a request filed to have the game replayed but the protest was denied. The season ended with the 130 pound team second in the Northern-California Championship or ranking third in the State. REVIEW OF SEASON, The basket-ball season has been wonderfully successful and unlimited eredit is due Coach V. N. Hodge for his efforts in putting forth two teams oi Championship honors. The Santa Rosa High School can well be proud of the way in which it supported the basket ball teams. Every game on the local eourt brought out a wonderful crowd of rooters and all expenses were made and additional money cleared. The spirit shown during the season was great- ly responsible for the success of the teams. Not enough praise can be given the members of the basket ball squad who came out every night for practice and played gamely and worked hard to put Santa Rosa High School on the inap as the winner of League honors. Capt. Nevers, Tom Grace, D. Kyle, R. Herbert, C. Morrill, R. Devoto, were regular members of the Unlimited Basketball team for the Season of 721. Ernie Nevers was a whirlwind at the forward position, and his shooting from any angle on the floor, and overhand shots were enough to make him the mainstay of any team. Ernie was probably one of the best basketball players ever seen in the county. Tom Grace, acting captain after the departure of Nevers, was a worthy fe partner of Ernie. ‘Tom is light, but he is fast and accurate in his shooting and passing and he has proved to be a wonderful forward during his time on the team, this being his second and last year. D. Kyle at center, was a sure-shot and a good man for team-work on the open floor. Tle always had the jump on his man and his playing on the latter part of the Analy game will long be remembered here. R. Herbert took Ernie’s place as forward and held it down with great abil- ity. Rol is a good shot and an accurate passer, the kind of fellow who talks it up and encourages the teams to buck up and play the game. Chff Morril l was running guard and his hard, fast playing gave him that position throughout the season. Cliff always kept an unbreakable defense and his opponent very seldom scored. Cliff was also good at making long shots at any angle on the floor. R. Devoto was the husky standing guard and it took a mighty good for- ward to get by him. In the Analy game it was his ability to stick with the man with the ball that prevented many a score. Ellie Barnett, Joe Dearing, R. Hootman and D. Hootman were the other members of the team who played consistently and are deserving of much credit for their work throughout the season. Ellie was a forward, and promises to be ‘‘going good’’ next year. D. Hootman is a guard, center or forward of no mean ability and he will undoubtedly be in good form next season. R. Hoot- man is a first-rate guard and he will make a fine addition to next year’s team. One Hundred Seven Captain Joe Kerrigan was the mainstay of the 130 pound team. His leadership coupled with his wonderful all around ability in shooting and with his team-work make him a great asset to the team. 5 Stacy Lee, last season’s captain, was at the other forward position where he was fast and accurate in his playing. He too was greatly responsible for the team’s success. Al Lyttaker is undoubtedly one of the best running euards a Santa Rosa 130 pound team has ever had. His ability to shoot, pass, guard and dribble, has easily made him a member of the regular team. Bernard Noonan was at center most of the season and although he had a hard time making the weight he was the best possible player for that position as he is a remarkable player in every point of the game. Vernon Thompson at standing guard played hard an:l steadily throughout the season and Bernard Holm also was a guard of no meaa ability George Bath although considerably lacking in weight, showed remarkable ability to shoot baskets from any position of the floor, and his hard fighting tactics, from the beginning to end of any game he was in were, admirable. iothing more need be sail of our sueceess in basketball. Those fellows winning their Block ‘‘S”’ in basketball are well deservine of them. The {ol- lowing are recipients of the ‘‘S’’: Manager of teams Joe Bussman. Unlimited. 130 Pound Team. Capt.

Roy Hayward SS Meeneg = +4” —O F ° A GOOD BEATING —� Hundred THEFECHO One Hundred EEE CHO One Hundred Ten % HE TRACK TEAM of 1921 will go down as one of the greatest in the athletic annals of Santa Rosa High. The track squad was splendidly balanced, with several men in every event, to get those second and third places that roll up the points. A review of the dual and league contests of the season will show that out of three dual meets with Analy Union High, Petaluma High, University High of Oakland, the North-West League and Sonoma-Napa-Solano Tri-County League Meets, our Track Team lost but one, to the University High tracksters, by a very uarrow margin of points. In the S. N. S. Meet at St. Helena the team took second place honors, losing hy only one point to Vallejo. This meet was not exactly on the level, and a protest is being made on the poor management of the contest. The 120 pound Track Team had a wonderful season. They took first place in all their dual and league meets, with the one ex¢eption of the Petaluma meet. The light-weights lost this meet by losing the relay. Preliminary Season Inter-Class Meet. The rivalry between the classes in the inter-class meet served as an in- spiration for the track season, and the contest showed up a lot of new material. The Senior Class of ’21 gave the Juniors a hard run for first place honors, but the third-year team would not be denied the victory, and the meet ended with the Class of ’22 a winner. Scoring honors were divided between Don Kidd of the Seniors, with three first places, and Joe Dearing of the Juniors, with an equal number of firsts. The 120-pound inter-class wasa decisive victory for the Sophomores, with a class team composed of Lyttaker, Morin and Silvershield. Cross-Country Run The cross-county run is one of the big events of the track season. There were over twenty entries in the 1921 marathon over the three and one-half mile course. The Juniors won the race by a safe margin, with J. Dearing and R. Hudson of the ’22. class finishing in a hard fight for first place. The Walt- One Hundred Eleven er Nagle Cross-County Cup has now engraved on it the Class of ’22 as the winning team, and Joe Dearing, ’22, first runner to finish. Santa Rosa High, 76; Analy High, 46. The first dual meet of the season was with Analy High on our high school oval. The Santa Rosa team had a decided edge on the Analyans throughout the meet. Analy was at her best in the field events, and although they tried their utmost, the superiority of the Orange and Black tracksters was undis- puted. Don Kidd was the individual star of the day, carrying off the 100-yard dash and the 220-yard dash with ease, and placing second in the shot-put scoring 13 points for Santa Rosa. Collins and Proctor, with ten points each. were the best point-winners of the Analy combination. Santa Rosa High 120-pound, 45; Analy High, 120-pound, 4. The Analy 120-pound team was almost completely shut out by the Santa Rosa light-weight team. The meet was Santa Rosa’s from start to fin- ish, and was evidence of the nifty track team we had. Morin starred for the Santa Rosa squad, with three first places and a third. He is a reeular wonder on the track and field, winnine both jumps, the 220-yard dash, placing third in the 50-yard dash and runnine the last 220-yard in the winning re- jay race. Santa Rosa High, 87; Petaluma High, 35. A big victory was scored over the Petaluma High team in our next dual contest. Their team was built around Schwobeda. a truly remarkable middle- distance man, who tied with Kidd and Dearine as high point winners of the imeet, with 15 points each. The 440-yard dash, 880-yard run, and one-mile run were all taken by Schwobeda of Petaluma. Kidd of Santa Rosa won both the 100 and 220 with no competition from the Petalumans. Don also took irst place in the 12 pound shot-put. Dearing carried off three firsts: in the 120 yard high hurdles, broad jump and javelin for the Santa Rosa team. The 100 yard dash and the 220-yard dash were clean sweeps for Santa Rosa, with Kidd, Adams and Grayman placing first, second and third in both races. The Petalumans were also shut out in the high jump by Stuart, Wade and Leppo. Santa Rosa High 120-pound, 22; Petaluma High 120-pound, 28 In one of the cleverest meets of the season the Santa Rosa 120-pound team was defeated by the Petaluma lightweiehts. The absence of J. Morin and J. Lucas, two of the leading point-winners, was the only reason for the Peta- luma victory. As it was, the meet was hotly contested. and the relay turned out to be the deciding event as to which team would win the meet. Santa Rosa lost the race by a few feet, and the Petaluma 120 pound team was vic- torious. Lyttaker of Santa Rosa was the outstanding star of the meet, tak- ing two first places in the 50 yard dash and broad jump, and second in the 220-vard dash. Santa Rosa High 51, University High 71. The biggest dual track and field meet of the year was with University High of Oakland. Last year’s track team lost out to the University athletes One Hundred Twelve THE ECHO by only a few points, and Santa Rosa hoped to put over a victory. The tal- lying was very close at the beginning of the meet, but the University track team proved to be a wonderful combination, with a strong entry list in the field events which won the meet for them by a very close score. Becker of Uni- versity High was high-point man with 16 points, winning both hurdle races and the high-jump, and taking third in the broad-jump, which was won by Phillips of the University team, with a jump of 21 feet 3-4 inches. Joe Dear- ing was the star of the Santa Rosa track team, with a total of 13 points, earry- ing away first-honors in the mile-run and javelin throw, and placing second m the 880-yard run. Mallory made a jump of 20 feet 11 inches, taking second in that event, and second in the high hurdles in the fast time of 16: flat. Joel also placed second in the shot-put, which was taken by Smith of University High with a heave of 42 feet. Don Kidd ran two great races in the sprints, winning the 100 yard dash, and taking second in the 220 yard race, losing to Miller of Oakland by inches in the dash at the tape. Don also took third place in the shot-put, and in running last lap of the relay he gained several yards on bis opponent’s lead, but the handicap was too great to win. The relay would not have won the meet for us, but it proved to be a great race, with the Santa Rosa relay team forcing the University relay runners to the utmost. The relay was run in 1:38 1-2 which was remarkable time for the early part of the season. The final score announced was University High 71, Santa Rosa High, BL. NORTH-WEST LEAGUE MEET The big track and field meet of the season was held on the Santa Rosa High School Oval. There were two meets between the unlimited and 120. lb- teams. Nearly two hundred athletes were on the field, surrounded by multi- colored rooting sections on the bleachers around the edge of the field. It was a great day for a track meet and it turned out to be a greater day for Santa Rosa High. With ten schools entered from five counties in the unlimited class, and five teams entered in the 120 lb. section, it was conceded that the winning combination would be a wonderful team: Throughout the meet each event was hotly contested, and every school fought hard for that fraction of a point that might mean a victory. But as the meet drew to a close, the splendidly bal- anced track team wearing the Orange and Black took the lead and deliberate- ly walked away with first place honors and the North-West League Pennant. Throughout the meet there were many features and sensational races, the first of which was the 100-yd- dash. Don Kidd, one of the fastest sprinters Santa Rosa High has ever had, and Collins of Analy, a real speedy man, avere announced as having run a dead heat in the final race, although Don actually won out in the dash at the tape. The two speed-burners agreed to run the race over to decide the fastest man. It was a wonderful race and Don would not be denied first place. Steadily gaming on the Analy man, Don broke the tape six feet ahead of Collins in the fast time of 10:2. The 440-yd. dash was another great race with a thrilling finish. Kerrigan if Santa Rosa was running far in the rear at the beginning of the race. Then One Hundred Thirteen — Wala IKE Ge in the last 220 yards Joe began to gain on the leaders, and with a wonderful finish that brought the crowds to their feet, he crossed the line a winner by six feet from the fast Analy quarter-miler, Meyer. The time announced as 56 1-2 seconds, was one of the fastest of the year. Kyle took first place in the dicus, with a heave of 111 feet, 5 inches, second in the 220-yd- dash in a close tace won by Schoenigh of Petaluma, and third in the shot-put. This gave Kyle a place as one of the individual stars of the meet in point-winnine. Dav- idson of Ukiah and Schwobeda of Petaluma shared honors with Kyle, each athlete winning 10 points for his team. Pedersen was not sure of first place but with a vault of 10 ft-, 4 inches, the Santa Rosa athlete carried off first place honors in that event. Hudson was another point-winner. In the 880-yd- and one mile runs Roland took second place, and he also placed fourth in the pole-vault. The relay was hard-fought and fast, with every team trying its hardest. But Adams, Kyle, Kerrigan and Kidd were too speedy for the other schools, and Santa Rosa High took first honors in the last event of the meet. THE S. N. 8S. LEAGUE MEET. The Sonoma-Napa-Solano Tri-county League meet was held on the St. Helena High School track, it was the last big meet of the year- Coach Hodge entered a twelve-man team composed of Kidd, Kyle, Adams, Dear- ing, Pedersen Hudson, Grayman, R- Hootman, Kerrigan, Morrill D. Hootman, and Gutcher. The meet was very «losely contested and every event was hard- yought. It was due, however, to the lack of capable management of the meet that events were not run in strict conformance to the rules. This slackening of the supervision of the contests caused many delays which was the only fault of the meet. Vallejo High had entered a very strong team, which was built around a suner-athlete, Boyden, who is a great middle-distance runner and all-around trackster. The scores of the Santa Rosa and Vallejo teams kept see-sawing back and forth with the announcement of each event. Kyle was Santa Rosa’s star point-winner, and he was also one of the leading point-winners of the ‘lay. Kyle won first in the shot-put with ease, and in the discus throw he broke the S: N. S. record, which has stood for many years, with a heave of 112 feet, five inches. Dearing came close +o winnine the 120-yd. high hur- dles, and it was only in the rush at the taye that a St. Helena man beat him out by inches and incidentally broke the league record in doing it. Dear- ing carried off first honors in the javelin throw, and came within six inches of breaking the record in that event. Don Kidd took second }:lace in the 459 yd. dash, and another second place in the 220-vd dash. Morrill and R. Hootmau took third and fourth places in the 220-vé. low hurdles. and D. Hootman placed third in the discuss. Santa Rosa High was ieading in points scored when the relay started. The Vallejo relay team proved to be too fast for the Orange and Black. and Vallejo took first with Santa Rosa running a One Hundred Fourteen THe ECHO close second. The final score of the meet as announced gave Vallejo High the first place pennant by a half-point over the Santa Rosa team. The true outcome of the meet is still in doubt, however, as Vallejo made a violation of the rules in entering a man in more events than he is entitled to participate in: S. N. S. 120-LB. LEAGUE MEET The first track meet in the S. N. S. league between 120 lb. teams was held on the St. Helena oval on the same day as the big S. N. S. meet. The outcome of the meet was at no time uncertain, with the Santa Rosa team copping off places in every event. Al Lyttaker was the individual star of the Santa Rosa team, scoring about ten points. Johnnie Morin came a close second to Lyttaker in scoring points. Steve McTigue placed second in the 220-yd dash and ran a great heat in the relay. Johnnie Lucas was also a consistent winner in every event he entered. It was a ereat day for the 120 lb. team and they literally ran away with the meet. The relay composed of Lyttaker, Morin, Lucas and McTigue took first place, and the Santa Rosa 120 lb. team proudly bore the first-place pennant home to be displaved with the other trophies of Santa Rosa High. A review of the 1921 Track Team would read as follows: Don Kidd is our star srinter, and he is one of the fastest men Santa Rosa High had ever had. Don has lost but one race in the 100-yd. dash on our high school oval, in the three seasons that he has been a member of the track team. He also can take the low hurdles in fast time, and, in the field events Don is always good for a place with the shot and discuss. This was his last track season and in losing him, Santa Rosa High will miss one of the great- est track athletes she has ever had. Dave Kyle is a wonderful performer in the field events and he can also run a fast 220-yard dash if it is necessary. Dave was a consistent win- ner in the discus and shot throughout his time on the team. Kyle might have helped the team win from the University tracksters if he had only real- ized his ability on the track a little sooner. Kyle holds the 8. N. 8. record in the discus throw, and is going to be greatly missed by the time next track season rolls around. Joe Kerrigan is one of our best middle-distance men, his best race be- ing the 440-yd. dash. Joe won the 440 in the big C. I. F. Meet in one of the aost thrilling races of the season. He was also a good half-miler, and next season we hope to see him carrying off honors in every event he enters. Joe Dearing is one of the best all-around track men on the team. He made eight points in the S, N. S. m eet and came very close to breaking two records. Joe throws the javelin, runs the mile, half-mile, and 120-yd. high hurdles, he can also broad jump and put the shot when the points are need- ed. He will be here next year, and a great many records are going to be broken if he improves, as he surely will. Roland Hudson was one of the best distance men on the team. Rol is One Hundred Fifteen 5 SHE EGO rather short of stature, but he is well-built and he has a wonderful stride that makes him a sure point-winner in any meet. He just took up pole-vault- ing this season, and as evidence of his ability he placed in several meets, in- cluding the C. I. F. Meet. Val Adams is one of the fastest men on the team, and his consistent winning made him one of the most valuable men on the team. It was his first season in track and he will be the mainstay of the team in the sprints next year. Pedersen is our star pole-vaulter, and he was one of the steady first- place men of the team. He has nearly perfected his form in this event and his long string of victories throughout the meets of the season show his ability in that line. Revan Hootman is our best man in the 220-yd. low hurdles, and he showed himself to be a good performer in that event. He placed steadily during the season, and with the proper experience he will be a hurdler of the first rank. Dwight Hootman is always sure of a place in the discuss throw. Dwight took second in the ©. I. F. meet and third in the S. N. S. meet and with energetic training he will develop into a splendid performer in that event. Grayman was one of the best on our sprinting staff. It was his nat- ural speed that gave him many places in the first meets of the season, and with further training, he will be a valuable addition to next season’s team. Bill Gutcher is one of our best middle-distance men. Bill runs his best race in the quarter-mile. He has a wonderful stride, and with the exper- ience the last season has given him, he will be one of the leading members of the °22 track team. _ o— HISFIRST ‘REPORT CARD—O WHENAFELLOW NEEDS AFRIEMD One Hundred Sixteen THEVECH® Tae eetets] eoasS Sicextacieg ions eT, ee Sass my yr The baseball season started out with great promise, with a team that had played together for two years. Practice began early in March and the squad put in as much preparation as possible. Coach Hodge was unable to devote all of his attention to baseball, on account of the extended schedule of our 130 pound basketball team. Although the material was of the best, and most of the squad were veter- ans, the team seemed to play in streaks. At times the work of the team was in- fallible. while at other times the whole squad seemed to go up in the air. PRELIMINARY GAMES Santa Rosa High, 7; Petaluma High, 1. The first game of the season was played on our home diamond with the Petaluma High nine. There was never any doubt as to the result of the game. The Santa Rosa team played air-tight ball and hit everything the two Peta- One Hundred Seventeen fuma twirlers offered. The game featured only steady playing and there were none of those sensational rallies which featured the later season. The Peta- luma team managed to bring one man across the plate during the game, while Santa Rosa High scored seven times resulting in a final tally of 7 to 1.. Santa Rosa High, 6; Analy High, 5. Analy High proved to be our next victim in a hard-fought game on their school diamond. The score kept changing in each successive inning, with first one team on top and then the other. The score was tied in the seventh inning, when the Santa Rosa team staged a hitting rally and secured the lead by one run. There was no more tallying on either side, and the game ended 6 to 5 in our favor. The team displayed more genuine spirit in this game than in any other contest of the season, as evidenced by their strong come-back which won for them. NORTH-WEST LEAGUE GAMES Santa Rosa High, 7; Sonoma High, 5. The first league game of the season was with Sonoma High on our diamond. The Santa Rosa nine held the lead easily throughout the game. For the first eight innings the team gave Deter on the mound the best kind of support, and the score when Sonoma came to bat in the ninth inning was 7 to 1, in favor of the Orange and Black. With this big lead the first blow-up of the season hit the team, and the Sonoma batters began to rap the ball all over the field, with Santa Rosa mak- ing a buneh of errors. Sonoma had tallied four times before the Santa Rosa team settled down and clapped the defeat sign on the rallying Sonoma nine, The final score was 7—5, with the Santa Rosa nine a winner. Santa Rosa High, 9; Analy Union High, 11. 4 Santa Rosa met Analy High as the next contender for league honors. The game was played on our diamond—the former victory over the Analyans gave Santa Rosa a little over-confidence as to the outcome of the game. The Santa Rosa team held the lead for the first three innings, when the Analy nine start- ed a batting rally. Santa Rosa had her second slump of the season at a critical time, when the Analy hitters were rolling up the score. Before our team had tightened up, their opponents had chalked up six runs, most of which were made on_field-errors. Santa Rosa rallied in the eighth, and their fighting spirit came to the ‘ront, but it was too late to win the game. Analy held the lead until the end of the game, the final score being 11 to 9 in their favor. This game was prac- tically for the county championship. as both teams were considered the best in this section of the league. Santa Rosa High, 2; Petaluma High, 4. The third league game of the season was with the Petaluma team on their diamond. This could hardly be termed a real game of baseball, as Santa Rosa went all to pieces when the Petaluma team began to score. The team tried aard to pull together and gain a victory over the team they had defeated so badly in the first game of the season, but they were forced to concede the vic- One Hundred Eighteen tory to the Petaluma nine. Parmeter was the star fielder of the game in left field. The score would have been much larger if Johnny had not grabbed those eight long drives that came out to him during the game. There wasn’t a man on the team who could connect with ball in that game, and breaks seemed to be against us from beginning to end. The final score of the game was 4 to 2, with the Santa Rosa team on the short end of the tal- iv. Santa Rosa High, 3; Healdsburgh High, 0. The last league game of the season was with Healdsburg High. The game was never in doubt, as the Santa Rosa nine had the better teamwork, and were hitting the ball in every direction. Deter pitched good ball, and his team-mates supported him well throughout the game. In the ninth inning Healdsburg protested a decision by the umpire. The umpire was about to change his decision, but Coach Hodge wouldn’t stand for a breaking of the rules in that manner, so Santa Rosa withdrew from the game. The score was 3 to 0 in our favor at the close of the game, with Healdsburg having no chance whatever to score a victory. A review of the season does no t appear as successful as it really was. There were six games played during the season, with four victories, and two defeats by the closest of scores. Analy High won the N. W. L. and also defeated Alameda High for the North-Coast Section, but the latter game is being protested by the Alamedans. This shows just how close we came to having a championship team. The baseball season closed with Santa Rosa placing third in the Sonoma County section, and third in the North-West League. There follows an account of the regular members of the baseball squad who bave made a fine record for the ’21 season. LUCAS KNOCKS A “FOWL” One Hundred Nineteen TEE sECHO Al Lueas, Captain and short-stop, played a consistent game throughout the season. His fast playing in the field and his ability at base-running made him one of the best men on the team. ‘““Vint’’ Deter, one of our regular pitchers, proved to be a reliable man with the stick as well as a twirler of the first rank. Deter pitched a great game of ball in the Sonoma game, and with proper support he could have shut out the Sonoma nine. Joe Dearing, was catcher when Deter was on the mound. Joe’s all around ability behind the plate made a reliable member of the team. Joe will be with us next baseball season, and his knack at the game will do much to put ent a winning team. Dave Kyle, our other regular hurler, was a heavy hitter. Kyle had a fast ball and several hooks that helped to win many a game. ““Grogey’’ Noonan was one of our first-string catchers, and he proved to be a cool-headed man behind the bat. Bernard received for Kyle, and besides having a good peg to the bases, his eagle eye for foul tips was noted in every game he played. Clif Morrill, had held down the third base position for two years, and has always been one of the mainstays of the infield. Clif has been the star hitter of the team throughout the season. Tom Grace was first baseman and outfielder, with a splendid record at ihe bat. His steady playing of the first-sack made him one of the best men on the field. Tom’s ability to make a sacrifice-hit in a pinch gave him a posi- tion as one of the most important members of the team. John Parmeter, out in left-field, was one of the most reliable outfield- ers on the squad. In the Petaluma game Johnny showed his ability as a fielder by making five outs in two innings by catching five lone flies from the Peta- luma batsmen, thus saving our team from a greater defeat. Frank Grace in center-field was one of the best players and most consist- ent hitters on the team. A long drive to center was a sure-out with Frank on the team in his regular position. His ability to smash the ball eave him a reputation as one of the leading batters in the line-up. John Lueas, played a snappy game of ball at second-base. Johnnie was also a good wielder of the stick, and his ability to run the bases made him one of the best men on the team. Bill Cowan could always be relied upon at first or second base. Bill is a good fielder and a good hitter when in his regular form. He will be back at school next year and we ean expect a good account from him. Ralph Devoto was a reliable outfielder and a good heavy hitter and as he will be back again next term a lot is expected of him. Stacy Lee was one of the best all-around men on the team, althoueh the long basket-ball season prevented him from practicing baseball enough to make a regular berth on the team. The prospects of a successful season and a championship team for 1922 are not so bright as they might be, but there is lots of good material in the One Hundred Twenty TAEFEGHO school and a great record is hoped for. The members of the 1921 Baseball Squad who will form the nucleus of the next baseball team are: John Par- meter, Frank Grace, Bill Cowan, Bernard Noonan, Joe Dearing, Ralph De- yoto and Herbert Work. A good account is expected of each of these fel- lows, and the season ought to be a very successful one. Girls Athletics The gymnasium classes this year are under the supervision of Miss Mildred Turner and Miss Edith Connell. This year the girls have taken up volley ball, baseball, tennis and track, besides their formal gymnasium work and folk dancing. The first inter-class volley ball game was played between the Freshmen and Sophomores, the Sophomores carrying off the honors. The Freshman Sophomore game was followed by the game between the Juniors and Seniors in which the Juniors were the victors. Next came the championship game be- tween the Juniors and Sophomores. The Juniors won with a score of 21-9. 21—12, The coming of the baseball season brought a great deal of enthusiasm. The first game was played between the Freshmen and the Sophomores, with the Freshmen winning the victory. The next game was between the Juniors and the Seniors. In this game the honors went to the Juniors. The final game was played between the Juniors and the Freshmen; and, to the surprise of all and the delight of many, the Freshmen won with a score of 18—21. Tennis has received much attention this year. The Tennis Club has been organized and the courts have been repaired so that they are now in a very vood condition. Many of the girls have recently joined the Club. The fol- iowing girls are active members of the organization: Mary Bonar, Margaret Hahmann, Madeline Alexanderson, Bernice Morrow, Eleanor Cockburn, Portia Hopper, Luella Sibbald, Marda Leppo, Henrietta Hahmann, and Virginia Pom- eroy. The girls are given an ‘‘S. R.”’ if they play on a winning class team or if they hold first place in tennis or in a track event. The following girls re- ceived their S. R.s last year: Mildred Russell, Helen Mallory, Vida Dog- gett, Josephine Oliver, Edith Anderson, Pauline Haines, Helen Truitt, Mail- dred Wells, Thyra Morrill, Edith McGuire, Mary Tate, Ma deline Alexander- son, Jeanette Bline, Velma Bucknum, Sylvia Tullett, Isabel Stroven, Lucy Strelezki, Thelma Rowe, Alma Henningsen, Bernice Rogers, and Margaret Hah- mann, It is expected that a number of the other girls will be awarded their “S. R.’7’s this year. One Hundred Twenty-one UATE, IEC] O)s= ae ; Mss John Samuel. Lyoas: % rg ™ Three ofakind Yea We.

I, JOSEPHINE SPEER, will my original line of talk to Ruth Covell. real- izing that she needs something to help her in her chosen career of Village- vamp. My never-ending supply of cars I leave to the Coon brothers so that they may have one whenever they chance in an embarrassing situation. I, JOHN LUCAS, the fickle little home-wrecker of the brilliant class do hereby leave my ability of bluffing the fairer sex to that villain Malcolm Weeks; my graceful leaning toward the camel walk | will retain for future use. I, CLIFTON MORRILL, upon looking over all my assets—in the nature of good looks and ability to get there, have decided to take all with me into that which lies below the crust of the earth. I, GERALD WADE, being on the verge of collapse, do leave my gentle voice and timid, unassuming manner to Earl Kuykendall, for he has dif- ficulty in making himself seen and heard. All my surplus avoirdupois I leave to him also, for he has been gradually wasting away since the Barnes sisters left last year. I, FRANK FELIZ, the unfeeling Adonis of the class of 21, do leave my good appearance and beauty to Armand Saare, for I know he will have more use for them than I have had—in my permanent role of woman-hater. Unwillingly, leaving my sneaks to Mr. Johnson, I, ROY MIRANDA, make my departure. My xemarkable ability as champion prune picker I leave to Margaret Hahmann. My numerous ties I donate to the Red Cross society. Being violently near death, I, HELEN PALMER. leave my exquisite ex- pression to the little Freshman girlies. Let my plaid skirt be draped about one of the chilly statues in the study hall. I, VERNA KING, feeling the scythe of time, ask that my hair be placed in the wardrobe of Fred Feliz. All my many possessions, may be placed in a vault in the Santa Rosa National Bank.

Let Specs Johnson inherit my form- er standing. I, CLEONE HEDGES, uncomfortably near death, have not decided what to do.

STANLEY EVERETT, having demonstrated that I am the only Privil- eged senior having sense, hereby adbicate as business manager of the Eche in favor of Myron Langley, for he has already shown remarkable ability along these lines. Therefore, I am leaving for him all my receipt books, orders, blanks, ete., in my locker in the Echo office. Since the only thing for me to do is to leave, I, the demure VIRGINIA’ HARDENBROOK, hereby execute my last and only will. To Mary Bonar I leave my coy glances; to Bella Haney I bequeath my undying love for daneing. My original conception of what a sorority girl should be I take with me, as I might set a new standard at college. Sinee word has been received from the Mad House in Berlin where so many of our students reside, Edward Lindsay has been discovered a resident thereof, and he has sent word that Miss O’Meara has accepted with pleasure his delightfully easy riding bicycle, and that she will make many pilgrim- ages on it in the coming year. She also obtained his perfect form which, registers surprise. At last, I, ZALA NOBLE, have stepped off the throne and surrendered my position to that heart-breaker, Ida Sprenger. To Clarice Collister, I have willed my blond hair so she may disguise herself when desired.

I, MELVIN SNODGRASS, The Stern, hereby leave my undying adoration for the business college and my former position as dictator of the Situdent Body, to Josephus Anthony Dearing. To him also I leave my glasses, so someone will be sure to clean them in the future as I have done in the past. Being finally forced to give up ‘‘the ghost,’’ I, ROBIN LEHRBERGER. nbdicate from my position as Mayor of Sinn Feinners in favor of Albert Shea. Having given up hope, I, EDWARD ALBERS, dedicate my fluent knowl- edge of other people’s business to Fritz Baer. My poorly developed knowledge of everything I give to Alan Campbell. [, MELVIN HOLM, knowing that the end has been reached. hereby surrender all claim of knowledge in science to The Junior College: all my handballs I will to Kenneth Whithed.

Mr. Bailey has kept my brillianey in Thee CHO Physies 12B, and therefore I am unable to take it with me. Feeling that my senses are leaving me, I, the only giant of the class, RICHARD CAREY, have sent my poetie appearance and manly dignity to the Royal Academy in London, where all may see them. Miss Cochrane is at presentin charge of my ‘‘tremelo’’ voice, and it can there be heard at any time. I, CARROL MeGOUGH—alias Magoof—knowing I am the most humorous wit in existence, have considerately pasted myself on the enduring pages of the famous Whizz Bang, where all may laugh with me. 3eing worthy of praise, I, ELMA DAKIN, write the brains of all the seniors, boys and girls included; to win favor in the hereafter. I, BERNARD HOLM, have consented to place my likeness in the inter- esting art gallery in the public library, have placed my Block ‘‘S”’ in the White Rose candy store as a premium for him who buys the most candy next term. We, the two LIEFRINCK BROTHERS, have given our 1902 model Ford to Mrs. Yost so that she will not have to walk to school any more. We have also placed our brown dog at the desk of Miss Luce, for we think she needs protection from the hundreds of attacks on library books during the dreary days. I, ADELAIDE DRUMMOND, hereby blow out the last spark of life—and my sweet manner, my appearance and various assets I bequeth to Henrietta Hahmann.

It is thought that the property is that of Vernon Thomp- son and in this event they will be handed down to his younger brother, How- ard. Feeling the inevitable has arrived, I, the very reserved and humorous BELLA FISK, hereby distribute my effects as follows: To Maurine Boone, I bequeath my craving for harmonious laughter; and to ten very good girls of the Sophomore class I leave my s pit curls to be distributed equally ; my inter- est in Robin Lehrberger I take with me to be used in later life. Miss Gray and Miss Talbot I leave my splendid assortment of exclusive summer dresses. I, JULIAN WELLS, in the presence of many witnesses, hereby bequeath to Joe Kerrigan my trusty motoreycle, so that he may keep elusive Katherine Martin amused by his antics.

Milan, Italy—Grace Bline has become famous here as the only lescendant of Mona Lisa. Through her popularity she became the star of a light opera and some delighted individual in the audience threw a batch of Irish con- fetti at her during a solo and Miss Bline’s glasses were broken, much to her delight. Florence, Italy —The largest building in this city is the residence of Rose Babbino, now the honored wife of a Maori chief. She has invented a non-fugi- tive spaghetti, and as a consequence her people are now much fatter.

She has five different kinds of soot in her collection. Cario, Egypt—This city has suddenly become internationally famous be- cause of the discovery of the greatest double fraud in history, William Ol- sen.

Jerusalem, Palestine —Here Vida Doggett has charge of the deaf and dumb school on ‘‘Harmonious Philosophy.’’ Her school is composed of feeble minded Bolsheviki, who show great talent under their absent minded instrue- jor.

Bokhara, Central Asia.—Terminus of the famous desert mountain line of two wheel taxis: owned and driven by Grace Hodkinson.

Nippon, Japan.—Here at the city hall, Leonard Richardson has been in- stituted as Mayor. He is held in creat favor by the Emperor’s cross-eyed daughter-in-law, and a romance has been hinted at. Tis subjects hold fee in ereat esteem, and his impressive presence eraces the fair city daily at the head of a gorgeous procession. foceeeee One Huné@red Thirty-four Virginia Pomeroy, his favorite slave, waves a white ostrich fan over the exalted brow, and her position is the envy of all the beauties of the court. Dawson City, Alaska—The beautiful home of the prosperous Catherine Pressley is located here. Miss Pressley amassed a tremendous fortune by con- vineine the Eskimos in that country that fans are absolutely necessary, and that ice-cream and soda water are also necessary as part of the daily food and refreshment. She also sold more ice cream there than was sold in any other part of the arctic circle. Her greatest feat was the invention of hot sundaes, which are now in exclusive vogue as far south as Dawson City. Here also occurred the sad tragedy of the well known Lawrence Hart. He was mistaken for a highly dee� rated totem-pole while gazing at a glacier, and was almost totally mutilated by thoughtless tourists who cut pieces of him for souveniers. Nome, Alaska.—At present Erwin Bosworth is living here, pursuing his specialty in butterflies, and hereabouts he is the best known figure, and at zlmost any time he may be seen climbing the cold icebergs in pursuit of a fleeting specimen. His book upon the subject is the only one in the world. Honolulu, Hawaii—Edith Burtchaell, because of her delightful beauty, has been chosen as the only American woman to be present at the court of the Hawaiian Kine. The King will reward her with the only cross-eyed per- forming jelly-fish in existence, for her undying attention and devotion. She will, of course, graciously accept it. Mexico City, Mexico.—Helen Bridinger founded here a school called “The Home of New Thoughts.’’ One of the most crowded courses eiven in this school is the course in training caddies for African Golf. Panama, Panama.—Neveral important persons reside here- Richard Carey, after defeating David Kyle single handed at the greatest boxing tournament in the States, is now running an exclusive shop of ladies’ and gents’ hair eoods. Elsie Davis, who acted as referee at the memorable fight, was in- stantly killed the night of the fight, when Mr. Careys’ leaden glove flew off during a swing of the brawny arm, and struck the lady between the ears. he society of Prevention of Cruelty to Ladies therefore built her a magnifi- cent tomb inside the harbor, and it is one of the most inspiring works of humar hands: Bagdad-—Here is located a tomb containing the ashes of the two fastest track men in the world.They ran so fast around a wooden race track that they generated enough electricity to set fire to the track. These wo great men Edward Albers and Edward Lindsay, were consumed in the flames they caused. Consequently all race tracks are at present built of dirt or of con: crete: Peking, China.—Center of the greatest gang of crooked grafters in all Asia, headed by that desperate drug fiend of the United States, Percy Alex: anderson. He cornered all the opium, heroin, morphine, etc., and so boosted the price that only he and a very few millionaires are at present able to pur- One Hundred Thirty-five chase any: He also owns the most beautiful opium den in the world which rivals those of ancient Babylonians. Shanghai, China.—The most famous Oriental city, over which Charlie Aikin and Zala Noble are the reigning powers. This pair have finally sue- ceeded in revolutionizing the famous Chnese dances.

Elma Dakin, after having received lessons from Cleopatra and Sappho, cia the ouija board, set up a seance parlor here. She discovered from the communications with the dead just why people died, and one of the chief rea- sons she found to be the cessation of living. Mexico City, Mexico.—Here Adelaide Drummond succeeded in accom- plishing an undreamed of feat of holding the office of presidency two entire years) The explanation of this remarkable feat is due to the fact that the Mexican populace are unaware of her exalted position. She built a sound- proof hut, and after proclaiming herself president, she dashed into the hut where she has remained in seclusion to the present date. Maleom weeks, her faithful upholder, brings her food through anu underground passage way and tells her how the Mexican people are at last convinced that they have found a wise ruler. Rio de Janiero, Brazil—Home of the only coffee merchant in the world. When Stanley Everett saw that Dagne Tollefson was so successful in spread- ing the use of Postum throughout the savage world, he immediately resolved that he would gain conrol of the only remaining coffee plantation: Conse- quently Miss Tollefson failed in her attempt to rid the whole world of the ereatest of all evils: Coffee. Mr. Everett received a platinum eoffe mill from Santa Rosa Coffee Club as a reward for his brilliant services. Para, Brazil—tLareest factory of absolutely pure Chewine Gum is lo- cated here.

Both young virtuosos contemplate re- tirement, Miss Graham, to take up fortune telling and Miss Hardenbrook oyster-farming. Madagascar.—Bernard Holm is here devoting himself to seclusion. He is the raiser and owner of an immense herd of goats and sheep. _His flocks are the admiration of all the eagles and buzzards for miles around, which prey upon Jus charges with relentiess fury and zeal. Dutch East Indies—Home and laboratory of the greatest manufacturing chemist in this territory. Carroll McGough, after having been driven from home, came here and set up a laboratory where he startled the civilized world with several discoveries and inventions. A few of his executions are: his white lamp-black, which is now universally used as face and taleum pow- der; his striped paint, which slops paint on any surface in most symmetrical ttripes; hs tatooed microbes (which he discovered in his food): and his won- derful colorless tints.

Then he leaned his arms on the Wells’ Hot Springs hotel register and puffed at his corn cob pipe. He watched Eddy walk into the pool room, saw through the doorway the ivory balls roll across the green felt, heard them knock together and a happy ah, when two tumbled into the pockets. Eddy, cue in hand, stood on the other side of the table, pulled his soft block felt hat a little more over one eye, tightened the hold of his suspenders on his blue serge trousers and rolled up his shirt sleeves allowing his pink underwear to show his good taste in selecting fitting colors. He ‘wet his lips, stroked hs red tinted nose and brushed a fly from his flat ear before deciding on the best shot. From Eddy, Dad’s gaze wandered to Mrs. Dugan, or Gyp, who sat on the porch at a small card table with three men. Her broad tan hat shaded her black eyes and hair, but the light fell on her yellow skin against the kahki of her shirt and dark brown of her overalls. She nervously tapped the floor with the toe of her heavy hiking boot and clinked the chips at her side to the time of ‘Dardenella.” THE PORCUPINE Your ante Chris; Two? All right, and thus the game went on. Of the four, Gyp seemed to take in most of the pots, but when she lost, it was generally to Chris. He sat opposite, so small and insignificant looking with his thin body, less than five feet in height, his pinched white face, gray hair with the panama on the back of his head, and big cigar in one side of his thin-lipped mouth. Dad looked at him and chuckled, then strolled out to talk to Mr. George who sat on the porch railing with his feet on the worn crosspieces. Laughter and “That Naughty Waltz” floated up from the dance platform hidden in the trees below, and the swaying lanterns looked like winkink fairy lights. Two girls came up on the porch, arm in arm and induced some of the guests to descend to the’center of hilarity. One of Gyp’s group joined them and she muttered something about those d——n girls taking away her only means of amusement—gambling. Why in h—— couldn’t they leave her alone, and her eyes flashed angrily as he watched them pass under the giant fig tree. The chips clinked and the cards fell. Chris puffed at his oversized cigar and Gyp’s face was expressionless. The bets grew larger. By eleven-thirty the other guests had retired but the small group at the table sat bunched over in their bar room chairs, carefully guarding their cards from neighboring eyes. Dad came up and sat in his especially reinforced chair. He filled his cob pipe and the chair groaned as he leaned over to strike a match. He smoked for a half hour and watched the impassive faces of the players through the blue gray haze. At twelve he knocked the ashes from his pipe on the arm of his chair and rose heavily. Well folks, “I reckon I’ll have to turn out the lights or there won’t be enough water left in the reservoir for to-morrow night.” Got some candles in the office if you want to finish the game. He walked into the office in a way which resembled a tug rolling in a heavy sea. After rummaging under the shelves behind the counter where anything from candy to bathing suits were kept, he brought out four candles. These he placed on the corners of the leatherette covered table. THE PORCUPINE Slowly the lights dimmed, then went out, and the gently fanned flames threw weirdly moving shadows on the wall. On the faces of the players they cast a sickly yellow light. Gyp lost fifty dollars to Chris before the candles were half burned. Her eyes darkened and grew more calculating. When she lost ten with the next pot she swore long and fluently. From the road to the bath house a lantern swayed, and with it came Eddy Dugan. They invited him to take a hand and he did. He lost twenty-five dollars and Gyp called him every vile name under the sun. How fortunate it was for him that she sat on the side that he was deaf. He believed in the old saying that, “Ignorance is bliss.” The candles burned more than half way down and the white grease collected at the bases. “Let’s make this a jack pot.” am I to come out ahead if the pots are so small? Gyp felt sure that she would win. How in H “Can’t any one open it? © Deal again.” “T open it for twenty-five.” “Raise you twenty,” and Gyp’s fingers shook shightly. “How many cards? Two? None? Three? All right.” Eddy and the other player threw down their hands. “Bet one hundred.” “Raise you fifty.” “Raise you a hundred.” “Raise you a hundred and fifty.” “T call you, Chris. A full house! She spread her cards out with a confident air and reached for the pile. Chris tapped her fingers and made her drop the bills while he put down his hand. “What! Four queens? Take the money you—rascal.” Gyp kicked back her chair with a scrape rose and stood defiant, her eyes glowing. She tore the cards into little bits and flung them fiercely at Chris. They fluttered: around him like snow flakes. Then she pulled her coat about her thin choulders and walked swiftly away, coughing hollowly. Chris 6 THE PORCUPINE put the money in a neat pile, placed it in his black seal wallet and blew aut the low flickering candles. The next morning when Henri went to strike the swinging rusty saw blade for breakfast he heard a weird, gentle, low, monotonous chant, and saw Gyp doing a strange graceful Indian knife dance before Chris’ door. Creeping up like a slender brown panther she scratched and cut mystic symbols upon the faded green panels. Then she drew b ack, stood poised on her toes with the knife held high above her head, the astonished Henri heard her say: “May the death curse of the great sun god of the Yaquis’ bring justice!” She turned quickly and ran into her cottage where Nina, her saucy little white poodle barked impertinent- ly, and received a pillow thrown forcefully for his trouble. Henri returned to the kitchen to think it over. When Mac drove up at two, Gyp was ready to go, trunk and all. She sat in the front seat of the speedy truck which had been diverted into a hard riding stage. Mac took in the mail bags and started as soon as the ice had been unloaded. The last that Dad saw of Gyp was the back of her head held high amid a cloud of summer dust. He sighed and smiled beatifically. Turning to Chris he gave him a cigar and said: “You’re a true friend, Chris. I thought I never would get rid of those impossible people, but you did the work. Shake, old man.” “Pshaw, that wasn’t anything, Just letting a gambler beat gamblers. I sure thought I was going to lose and had to resort to a few new tricks. She’s up on the old ones and if she hadn’t been so set on winning she’d have seen me, You're troubles are over for a while anyway. Eddy will leave to- morrow when the other masseur comes. Think I’ll go down and have him give me a last treatment; see you at dinner.” THE PORCUPINE 7 SCHOOL NOTES sy ROBIN LEHRBERGER November 30, 1920. Mr. McCarthy’s orchestra made its debut to-day in the assembly. It received four encores. The entertainment was a success and the students hope that the orchestra will perform again some time. Copies of the new constitution were issued to the members of the Student Body at 12:45 in the “Echo Office.” December 3, 1920. Mr. and Mrs. Stover amused us in the assembly by singing and playing cornets. Mrs. Kistler was the accompanist. Mr. Stover told a great many jokes which kept the audience roaring with laughter. The singing was very good and the cornet playing was even better. They re- ceived many encores. December 7, 1920. In the assembly to-day Coach Hodge announced a basket-ball game on Friday after the circus, with the Tomales High School Teams, 130-lb. and Unlimited. December 10, 1920. The Student Body decided to postpone the circus, which was to take place this day; owing to some happening which would have made it impossible for the stu- dents to enjoy themselves. In the basket-ball game against TOMALES HIGH SCHOOL the 130-lb. and the Unlimited team of ‘Santa Rosa Hi won this game by a large score. December 17, 1920. The circus took place and was a suc- cess. A large crowd attended the Block “S” dance in the gymnasium. The same night the 120’s, 130’s and Unlimited basket-ball teams went to Healdsburg and brought home the bacon. January 4, 1921. In the assembly to-day Professor Steele read section of the state laws dealing with the carrying and smoking tobacco, and about hazing. At the governing board meeting, it was announced that the junior-senior dance would take place on the 15th of this month. It was also announced that the election to decide the size of the block “S” would take place on the 6th. The governing board gave permission to Mr. McCarthy to give any kind of musical show he desired so that he may raise the necessary funds to buy instruments for the High School orchestra. 8 THE PORCUPINE A Student Body Publication Issued Every School Month in the Interest of the Santa ‘Rosa High School SINGLE COPIES 2 3 z 3 TWENTY CENTS Editorial Staff PUGIC OLIN OC Le ae recs Pe ea erent tee ery, Carl Stroven Assaciate rl diton crzeiancel cca - coal, ee we eee Malcolm Weeks ipitenany. ee diter, nts Sed lea s2 Rl Aen Catherine Pressley Gerald Wade Athletic et ditors mae nee eee eee |} Frank Feliz SOCLOLY GE Cito ute Ame sree oc Stas cea eee eee Jean Mailer AGT I SWPP ROL G Ul Gre saceste tert meee ee ee i ee Helen Truitt EX CHAN Te PEN CILO hae emcees eerste ee Ure SS Robin Lehrberger DCHOOMICePOLLen vines tre te aceon?

The main purpose of these conventions is to discuss the various troubles in the govern- ing bodies of high schools and to create ideas that will solve the problems or make them less difficult. The idea of the conventions was originated by John J. Lynch of the San Jose High School, and put into execution in 1916- 1917. In the convention last year there were present some 76 high | school student body presidents, representing ap- proximately 25,000 high school students of the state. Here an effort was made to promote the movement of student self government. Our school has had a. representative in the convention for the last two or three years and has spent some $150.00 , in transportation. expenses. We have, not. as yet, however, formulated an adequate method of student govern- ment. The president of the Student Body, in going to the con- vention is embarking on a quest of new ideas concerning student government. He has found out, by one term as the chief executive of this association, that the present system— that of having the president of the Student Body perform the duties of President, Chief Justice of the Student Council and Chairman of the legislative body, is unsatisfactory, to say the least. It is the most ineffectual idea of a government for a school of this size, that could be used. It is despotic in nature and does not promote co-operation between all parts of the association. If the executive head lacks initiative ability, the whole administration is one of laxity on the part of all con- cerned. The school has increased in size in the last ten years, but still retains a mock form of representative government, which would be practical for a student body of one-fourth the size of this. It is not only from the convention that ideas are wanted, but from the students of the school. After all a change of any system is not a success if it is not acted upon by those that it effects. MALCOLM C. WEEKS, Associate Editor. THE PORCUPINE Basket Ball Frank E. Feliz ’ar Basketball started with a rush when Coach Hodge an- nounced the opening of the season. There was unusual promise for two pennant winning teams with the number of experienced players on hand. The first night’s practice brought out over sixty fellows trying out for the Unlimited and 130 Ib. teams. Grace, Morrill, Kidd, Cowan and Dearing of last year’s basket ball squad, and Nevers, Kyle and R. Hoot- man who have become well-known as athletes since entering Santa Rosa High, will probably form the unlimited squad to represent the school. Healdsburg, Petaluma, Sonoma and Analy had started basket-ball early in the fall, having no other sport to fill their athletic schedules. This gives them a big start in developing a team, and securing that ability known as teamwork. The S. N. S. League Championship has already been played and won by St. Helena. Santa Rosa did not enter that series because it is a small league and it would have interferred with our football schedule. After our su ccessful football season the fellows were en- thusiastic over the prospects of as great a season in basket- ball. After only three practices, a meeting was scheduled with the teams of Tomales High School of Marin County. It was to be a double-header with both the Unlimited and 130-Ib. team on the schedule. Santa Rosa High—44; Tomales High—16. --.-Santa Rosa High’s first game proved to be an easy victory, The game was very much one-sided but proved to THE PCRCUPINE ii be exciting, because the players were trying hard to cinch their positions on the regular team. Kyle, at center, never allows his opponent get the jump on him, and he is a true passer and accurate shot. The center position could not be filled by a better man, for when Kyle is going good he cannot be stopped. The forward positions are filled by Grace and Nevers, Tom Grace is standing for- ward and the best man for the position. Tom is fast and ac- curate in shooting, and his team-work is good to watch. Ernie Nevers is a whirlwind at the other forward position. He is a wonder at making shots from any angle of the court, and his elusive sidestep and pivot make him one of the best for- wards Santa Rosa High has ever had. Morrill and Cowan at guards make up a splendid defense. Morrill is a hard fighter and the opposing forward hasn't a chance with our speedy guard. Cowan at the other guard position is a good sticker and he has a knack of making long shots that never miss. Kidd is the same flashy player who can always be relied upon. Hootman is a new mian and he is a good player in all points of the game. All this was shown the night of the game with Tomales High, who fought hard throughout the game, but were simply outclassed. When the final whistle blew the score was 44 to 16. Santa Rosa High School 130-lb, Team—5o; Tomales High School 130-lb. Team—ro. The teamwork of the Santa Rosa High Lightweights was too much for the Tomales High 130’s. The Santa Rosa 130’s look good for championship honors judging from the showing they made in that game. The forward positions are held by Stacy Lee and Joe Ker- rigan. Stacy Lee is quick and accurate in shooting and his speed makes him a hard man to guard. Joe Kerrigan jumped at center in the first game. Joe is fast and he can shoot baskets at either long or short distances. Lyttaker and Thompson at the guard positions make up a fast, well-balanced team. Thompson at standing guard plays a great game. A long pass never gets by him and he is a stire shot when given the chance. Other members of the 130-Ib. squad that are 12 THE PORCUPINE coming along in great style are, B. Noonan, regular center, Heyward and Holm, guards: The Tomales team had no chance against the better passing and shooting of the Santa Rosa 130’s and so the score stood 50 to 10. when the final whistle blew. The Tomales game proved that our teams were now round- ing into form. The team+work was strengthened and little defects remedied. It was necessary to organize a 120-lb. team picked from the large number of players trying out for the 130-lb. team. There was to be a triple-header with the Santa Rosa High Unlimited, 130’s and 120’s on the program with the same teams from Healdsburg High on their own court. Those who played:were Kerrigan and Lee, forwards; Noo- nan, center, and’ Lyttaker and Thompson, guards... Holm and Heyward played a snappy game in the last half at the guard positions. When the whistle blew the score-book read ??-to in favor of the Santa Rosa High Lightweights. Santa Rosa High—36; Healdsburg High—24. The Unlimited scored their second: win of the season over the Healdsburg team in one of the fastest games ever played on, the Healdsburg court. Healdsburg gave our basket-ball team a hard tussle last year, but our team was due to win again. The first half was the most exciting as the score was very close throughout that time. Kyle, at center played a great game on both offense and defense, and his shooting was. one of the features of the game. Captain Nevers and Grace were going strong. Nevers spectacular shots were greatly respon- sible for the big score. Morrill, Cowan and Dearing played a fine game at the guard positions. The small court caused many fouls for our team has not yet mastered the little technical errors that are easily made. In this way Healdsburg scored about fourteen points on free goals, this made the game appear closer than it would have been otherwise. In the last half Santa Rosa High came to the fore, and with a whirlwind finish THE TEAM piled up the score until the final whistle blew. When the game was over the score-board read 36 to 24. Santa Rosa High had proven her ability to put forth win- THE PORCUPINE 13 ning basket-ball fives by sending three teams to another school, playing them on their own court and 'then winning each game by a decisive score. The results of these games show that basketball season has a great string of victories in store for Santa Rosa High School. Exchanges By ROBIN LEHRBERGER.

The financial end was handled entirely by the Society. The Block “S” Dance in the Gym was the biggest attraction of the day, and netted a big sum of money. ( After piloting the Circus to success the Block “S” members have formed other plans for the interests of the school. Basketball is now the prevailing activity and the Block “S” Society is endeavoring to arouse the enthusiasm and support of the school for the 1921 Teams, who are sure pennant-win- ners, judging from the brand of games they have already played. BOYS (GLEE E€LUB The Boy’s Glee Club has become one of the most popular organizations in the school. Its many programs have always been enjoyed and encored by the Student Body at assemblies and entertainments. Many plans are being miade for the future success of the Club. The hearty support of the Student Body and the number of names on the waiting list insure the popularity and success of the Glee Club during the coming year. BOOSTER’S CLUB The Booster’s Club, now one of the foremost societies in the school has been very busy of late. The great success of the Circus, was largely due to the energetic way in which the loyal_Booster’s promoted and aided all the attractions of the day. Plans are being made for a big initiation and party to be held in the near future. Many new members are soon to be regular Boosters, and they will form the more progressive ment of the school. Senior High Assemblies and eats, and good times to visiting basketball teams are just a few of the important projects that the Booster’s Club is trying to introduce into the school. ele- THE PORCUPINE 15 Circus The Circus was held on December 14th, the day school closed for the Christmas Holidays. The show was held under the auspices of the “Block S Society.” The real motive for having the circus, aside from the pleasure it afforded, was to raise money to promote student body activities. Approximately $350.00 was realized from the adventure. December 14th turned out to be a bad day for the circus. About the timle the parade started, the rain commenced to drizzle and continued the entire afternoon, much to the dis- appointment of those interested in the circus. The bad weather had no bad effect on the spirits of the students. Some of the concessions were very good, some otherwise. But, did you ever go to a circus and not get stung. Getting stung is half the sport one has at a circus. The dance given by the “S” society were certainly well attended, perhaps be- cause of the ten piece orchestra, that was engaged for the oc- casion. The teachers and students, who assited the block “S’”’ So- ciety in making this affair one of pleasure, as well asa financial success,, should be thanked very much for their efforts. The show was promoted under very trying circumstances, which was all the more reason for their assistance being highly ap- preciated by the ones in charges of the affair.

But—if the Association is to accomplish the work it has set itself we must have all the parents as members. You boys and girls, you young men and women, are asked to bring in the membership of your parents.

Two plays have been staged this term, and met with success on each instance. “The Locked Chest” play that was given recently by the class was the result of much hard work on the part of Dean Borst and the members of the cast. Every who witnessed the play, gave the cast a good hand in the applause, for their efforts to afford entertainmient. This was highly appreciated by those people and a thing that they will not forget. The next play will be given Saturday the 209th, at the High School Annex, in the evening. “Cupid in Khaki,” is the name of the production and is thought to be about the best one of the season, the class will produce. It is a comedy and promises to be just what the students of the school like to see. Girls’ Athletic Letters What is the matter with the election methods of this school? An ammendment to the constitution, to the effect that the girls be granted the privilege of wearing a school letter has passed the Governing Board. This has been subject to vote for the last month or more. If the reverend Governing Board decided on the matter, why wasn’t it voted on? It looks as though steam roller methods have been used on this matier and nothing else. When an organization gets in this condi- tion some one should take it out and bury it. The girls of this school are not privileged to compete with outside schools to gain their letters, but show a decided spirit to back the boys’ teams. A recognition of this kind will be no more than a suitable reward for their efforts.

In the last issue of the “PORCUPINE,” a quill which gave the “razzberry” to the boys was published. As its victims were boys, we must deduce from this fact that it was written by a girl. So we are safe in assuming, that ‘although it was signed C. Sharp, a girl wrote it. Some boys may not dress exactly as. girls would like them to, but then some girls do not dress as boys would like to see them. Those red middy-blouses, that can be seen at least five-miles distance, are not such wonderful things. The party dress (or lack of dress) which has so been made fun of by cartoonists beats all that boys can show in the clothing line. And as for the shoes that girls wear,—well when a girl tries to crowd a size 5b foot into a 4a shoe, and then makes an attempt to look comfortable, she has no business to tell a boy what kind of a shoe he should wear. Some boys may let the hair grow on their faces, (which for some reason some times makes girls angry), but they have nothing on their feminine friends. The average girl dresses her hair in such a way as to give her head a triangular shape, with the apex right where the brain OUGHT to be. It leaves rather a small space for that organ, doesn’t it? Girls some times have such a hard time combing their hair. Well, anyway girls you surely have nice kinks in your hair, even if they are made at a hair-dressers. (Signed) Co SHARP: THE.

Volumes could be written on the various assertions and thoughts of the students on the candidacy of a‘ girl for the office of president of the Student Body. This is a touchy problem for any:safe and sane person to write or assert oneself on in this school. Especially when the school is in a vicinity where the hemp rope problem is one that the public is familiar. The members of the fair sex have the right of vote in this Student Body everyone will agree, but this-is the «;uestion— Is it advisable to turn the leadership of this Student Body into the hands of a girl? It is really a peculiar situation for the girls to be in, but nevertheless the girls of this school are good sports ande-are sure to be congraulated on their spirit. It makes the election a snappy one, and by reason of consider- ing some of our school elections, this is -what the school needs. The athletes of the school reaily want a boy in the office. This is one of the main activities of the school, and is truly a representation of the schooi to the outside communities. The girls of this school are capable of picking a good president for the Student Body, and will surely do the situation justice by making the proper choice. i : i 3 is ‘ i R ! i ‘ ‘ i Advertisers in “The ‘Porcupine’ For December Santa Rosa Furniture Co.
