The efforts of these people have combined to make our book a success. The art work has always had a very high standard and this year it has not only lived up to it but has set a higher standard for the years to come. To Miss Rhoda Selleck, art censor, too much credit can not be given. Our contributors are to be congratulated on the exceptional brand of literary material published in the book this year. The literary section is of such high calibre that we are proud of it. The articles have been carefully chosen and they represent the literary talent of the school. Miss Zella O'Hair, literary censor, is greatly responsible for such an excellent selection of material. Mr. Otto and Mr. Weinberger, along with the two efiicient business managers, Joseph Cash and Gaylord Stewart, have ably assisted in han- dling the business of the class year book. Mr. McKee, of the Echo Press, has been more than just printer of the Annual: his experience in publish- ing Shortridge Annuals has been of great value in putting this one before the school. To the members of the staff we owe very special gratitudeg for their pep, ability and willingness to work have been a wonderful help in times of need. At no time was their spirit of cooperation lacking. We also thank any others who have, even in a small way, made the task a little easier, and who have assisted in putting the 1921 Annual Macross. .

Con- tinue your education until you are definitely a n d unquestionably qualified for some spe- cific line of endeavor. Add to your general education a training that will 'make you a ' top-notcher in your chosen line. If' you expect to follow a commercial career, your first step should be to attend an active business college. That would enable you to pre- pare specifically for an office position. You could then start as stenographer, bookkceper, accountant, or secretary. For you to serve a business firm in this capacity, unlimited opportunity for promotion and advancement would unfold to you. You would be called upon daily to assist in handling the more vital affairs of the business. Your respon- sibility would gradually increase, which would be attended by a corresponding increase in salary. It is probable that a larger percentage of the business managers, executives, and proprietors of today made their start in this way than by any other route. It is just a natural result. This school specializes in the training' of young men and women for office positions and conducts a FREE EMPLOYMENT DEPARTMENT for its gradu- ates. It is one of the thirteen schools comprising the INDIANA BUSINESS COLLEGE. The others are at Marion, Muncie, Logansport, Anderson, Kokomo, Lafayette, Columbus, Richmond, Newcastle, Vincennes, Crawfordsville and Peru. To appreciate this school. you should see it.

EIGL? 052.13 4 f-X T is important to remember that this is the tercentenary of the landing of the Pilgrimsg for it is a significant fact QW A What a contrast is there between the mad, nerve-destroy- Er Ju. ing pace at which We are moving today and the simple, ' -, wholesome lives of our ancestors of three centuries ago. ' - Now our Whole day is nothing but one struggle for supremacy, and a rushing from one thing to another until the end of the day comes and we hurry home to snatch a few hours of rest in order to prepare for the same sched- Q L ule the next day. Although there are some who still have the old Puritan ideals, the average person, even the student in high school, has forgotten these. Lessons and school activities are sandwiched between a thousand other activities. It is true that these outside things make us more versatile: but does versatility give us the power to handle the problems of future life? Is not concentration and the command of one's self the great accomplishment? A return, even in a small degree, to the days of our Puritan ancestors would help us in many Ways. We have carried out in our art work and in some of our literature, the Tercentenary idea, and we hope that this book will give you a clearer conception and a better realization of the ideals of our forefathers. The articles are the best that could be obtained from the school, and we feel that they reflect the high standards of our class and of Shortridge. We have tried to make our Animal worthy of merit, and if you can derive benefit and enjoyment from it, we shall have been repaid many times. -EDITOR.

'1Q.5.3,. 4? ' - , E She celebrates with this issue the Tercentenary period f of American history. Her future will be onward as her 'ir :-- Q past has been progress. The Annual boasts that her pages will ever be the pride of all hearts that beat for the best that can belong to this our Short- ridge High School. She is proud of her heroes, who are exploring in foreign landsg such as George Reisnerg who are making discoveries for the food products of the world, such as Tom Moore at the head of St. Louis Uni- versityg who are making designs for great architectural structures, as Robert Daggett of our cityg classic poetry of today, as Hildegarde Flannerg head illustrator as Fred Yohng politicians of the true type as Claude Bowersg noted artists as Alexis Mannyg authority on Museum collection: as Durr Friedley and many others of whom we are wonderfully proud. Today we greet you with a Tercentenary Annual. An Annual that has upon its cover a hand made wood block by George Cole, showing the progress of the High Seas from the Mayflower of 1620, the warship of 1820 to the ship of the present commerce of 1920. ' The wood block upon the page introducing this article has the block- house on the hill, which shows the bull-dog grit of the American people, how they ventured out into flwrkrizcss, into the wilds of savage America in search of the promised land and to the establishment of the constitution of human liberty. The figure below is later America who has haltered and humiliated the beast or the obstacle that has arisen during the course of her progress and now stands facing the unknown future with the assurance of an innocent child. We speak to you in our iPlustrations, initial letters, tail pieces, wood blocks as a voice from this great period and ask you all as we enter the new, the unknown, to encourage a far greater outlook for this your Annual. -THE ART DEPARTMENT.

But they knew that she was not singing from a happy heart, in that little southern town they knew each Oth61 S business too well to excuse the slightest ignorance of the smallest sigh or profound- est secret. They knew that her song was one in which she sought courage, much as the ten year old boy does when he starts through a wood, whistling. Mammy was fighting a hard battle with her religiong her faith was under- going a severe test. About a year ago her husband, the right reverend Mistah fa rare distinctionl Simon Peter Townsend, ouah colahed Baptist ministahf' had died, leaving her to provide for the two recently adopted children, Jonah and Many Magdalene. As a means of livelihood she had filled her late husband's pulpit, recompensed from time to time by thank offerings, for iso expounded an old deaconl The salary in this heah church must be inspiahed by de Lord hisselff' Finally she had had to take in washin' an' ionin'. And lately even that had failed to provide the growing youngsters with necessary food, clothes, and edif1cation. As a last exipedient, she had appealed to her congregation for help. But they too, had acquired more little hungry mouths than they could fill, and so sug- gested that she send the elder, the little girl, back to the orphanage. It would almost break Mammy's heart to part with either of them, they DDTHUT- Dil-UTETHUSE HH knew, but it had to be done. So now, last week, Mammy had notified the inspector at Louisville to come for the little girl, but she was praying earnestly all the while that something would happen to prevent the separation. As she stood over her ironing board this warm afternoon, she chanted to the accompaniment of her busy iron: Oh, Lohd! I'se a-back slidin' from de faith. Show me de golden slippahs, Lohd, dat I'se gwine to weah when my trials am ovah, an' I'll know you is still wid dis ole niggah in heh tribulations. Lohd, I'se a been askin' you to let me hab my lil' chile for a long timeg ain't you gwine foah to heah me? Then, as if she had received an answer to her question, her face lighted up and she shouted, Hallelujah! I recollect what you said, Lohd. 'Whatsoever you-all asks ob me, in faith believin', dat shall you-all receivef I sho' am glad dat you has done gone an' settled dat question. Hallelujah! Slowly she raised her hands to her hips, and, swaying gently to an fro, she sang lustily: ' I's goin' to Heabeng I'se goin' to shout, Nobody up theah's goin' to put me out. I'se goin' to Heaben, and I'se goin' to stand- I'se goin' to move like lightnin' at de Lohd's command. A sudden ripping noise out under the magnolia tree brought her to the side door. Jonah! Mary Magdalene! What foah you done gone and picked my magnolia flowah? What's dat happened to youah waist, Jonah? she asked, peering suspiciously at the rent which Jonah was endeavoring to cover over with his hand. ' Nothin', answered the culprit, ain't nothin' happened: Mary Magdalene's done gone and pinned it all up. And he uncovered the torn sleeve decorated with a row of safety pins. All right, honey chile, come on in heah, an' Mammy'll sew you up. But why foah dast you-all pluck dem magnolias? Ain't Mammy. tol' you-all heaps ob times- Yes'm, but Mammy, interrupted Mary Magdalene, We weah comin' along, and comin' along on the pike, and theah came Mistah Pruitt with the Methodist white pahson in his auto.

Well, give huh a chanct, Jonah! Mammy said severely. Yes'm, continued Mary Magdalene, Wide-eyed, an' he axed me de grades on ma repoht cahd, an' he nodded an' smiled at Mistah Pruitt an' said, You sho Wah right, Brothah Pruittg I'se mightly glad We-all have done itl' Done what '? demanded Mammy taking the child by the shoulders.

But he said he'd Written to Louisville, and he axed us to tell you it was all settledg he sayd you'd undahstandf' An' he said dey hadihad a boahd meetin' up yondah at theah church, an' dey'd 'lowed dey could pay live dollahs a week out of Whut dey called theah home missionehy fund, an'- It am de Lohd's doin's! shouted Mammy, starting up from her chair. It am de Lohd as plain as day! Come ovah heah, you brassed lil' lambs, and kiss youah ole Mammy. I is favohed by de Lohd Almightyg de Lohd has pufoahmed a 'mi'acle foah me, righ' befoah ma eyes. But I ain't got nothin' on Methuselah, an' Sampson, an' Danielg dey am favorites ob de Lord, too. Now we-all am in de same class! Hallelujah! I'se called as a witness befoah de Lord ! Then swaying, she started around the little kitchen singing that melodious old song, Methuselah was a Witness. Outside under the magnolia tree, Jonah and Mary Magdalene were in a frenzied orgy of gathering fragrant blossoms before Mammy should arouse from her pious trance. But alas! Mammy came back to earth and.- What foah you-all pluckin' dem flowahs, Jonah '? Mary Magdalene? Gwine to take 'em to Massa Pruitt? Naw, replied Jonah sheepishly. We is goin' fetch 'em to Massa Pruitt's lil' gal. She am ouah-alls sweetheart, ain't she, Mary Magdalene? Mary Magdalene assented by a forward movement of her plaited kinks. And We-all been carryin' magnolia ovah theah foah a week-we ben prejudicin' huh in ouah favohf' Mammy nodded. A sudden light came into her eyes: she spoke into the April sky: Oh, Lohd, I recollect what else you said, 'De Lohd he'ps them Who he'ps themselves' ' -VIOLET MUSE, '21.

'Twas on the same ideal that thou didst build The bulwarks ol' the nation yet to be.

I pledge allegiance to my Hag and to the yili republic for which it stands: one nation, , indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. G Sir Roger De Coverley and I were taking an enjoyable walk on the Circle, when we approached one of its huge waterfalls, which was supplying all the air around us with a cool, delightful moisture that penetrated the very depths of our lungs. We stopped there to get a drink, but we did not tarry: for our imbibing from a little stream of water was soon interrupted by some music which we heard in the distance. Sir Roger being very fond of music, listened with an attentive ear until the strain came near enough for us to tell that it was being played by the shining instruments of the Shortridge High School band, which was leading a battalion of cadets. In front we could clearly see a blue and white banner, accompanied by an American flag. Sir Roger immediately came to attention, and removed his hat from his head, placing it next to his left shoulder with his right hand. The procession halted as the band was playing our national anthem. My companion held his position until the last note of that wonderful old hymn had been sounded. After the parade, Sir Roger and I continued our walk toward North Meridian street. He began discussing the lack of patriotism that was shown when the colors passed by. He was surprised at the number of observers around him, who deliberately Ukept covered even while the Star Spangled Banner was being played. I believe that if he had not been such a dignified gentleman, he would have knocked several of the unpatriotic hats off, -THOMAS SMITH, '2l.

They are born without sense, and most of them never out grow it: hence, they are said to resemble their parents. Children have no teeth at hrst, which is one of the wise provision oi' sapient nature, otherwise they would bite the fool relatives and friends who insist upon kissing them. I shouldn't blame them, should you? Baby girls, especially, do not like to be kissed, but they outgrow that later. - Children are not allowed to choose their parents. which is rank injustice: but parents'haven't any choice ' either, so that makes it fifty-fifty. , 5 Some small children have no eye-brows, but strangely enough they do not seem to miss them. Usually they are shy on hair, too, which cuts down thc cost ol' their upkeep, since their parents do not havevto have their hair cut every other day. Ain't Nature Grand! Every child must have a name you know, so that, when he grows up, bills can be sent to him: otherwise the bills would be delivered to the wrong person or would never arrive at all, which would be very distressing. Very! But naming a child is after all, very easy, for several reasons. In the iirst place, no matter what name is finally chosen, the baby can be backed into it and he can't object. Secondly, there are so many more names to choose from now than when our forefathers battled with the job. Look at all the Pullman Car names we have, which they never sus- pected, and the apartment house names, and all the cute little trade names such as Troco, Nabisco, Cuticura, Aspirin, and Bevo. Take young baby lloggs l'or instance: what could be more darling than Bevo Boggsg or the Cobbles baby, Miss Cuticura Cobbles, and so forth. You can see the possibilities can you not '? A , Fathers and Mothers are the first to suspect their children of intelli- LFOITCO, but yo u know parents are naturally suspicious. In closing there is this to be said about children, With all their faults we love them still. A The stiller the better!

Mollie, the cook, had been setting bread, and was, as usual, the last to go to bed. As she walked down the hall to the stairs, a fat waddling poodle followed her. Lawsie me, Toodles, ain't you never goin' to learn to sleep in de kitchen? No suh! Yo'all needn't come around me. I ain't gona be packin' no ole fat dawgs up I draws de line at dawgs! At this, Toodles frisked about her and pulled at her skirts, looking up with eager eyes. Don't try to ensnarw me wif dem gleamin' eyes! I is sholy goin' to make you stay heah to-night. No ole dawg needn't think that jes' cause he's got the gout, I'se a goin' to carry him up de stahs ech night. No suh! Exuhsize some of de fat often yuh! Luhn how to walk up dem steps, yo'sef! After this brisk tirade, Mollie swept up the stairs as though the matter were settled. Toodles was not convinced. He pawed frantically at the lower step, and then tried to climb up. But his avoirdupois was unequal to a feat like this, and, struggle as he might, he could make no headway. So he gave up trying, and settled himself at the foot of the stairs, and raised his voice towards heaven in piteous appeal. In a few minutes Mollie reappeared in the upper hall, clad in a gaily flowered kimono over a pink striped night-dress. She leaned over the banister, and spoke through the darkness to the whining Toodles below, in caressing tones. Now, honey, don't you go to carrying on like dat. Mollie nevah meant nothin'. Besides you'all don't want to rouse up de rest ob de fambly, does you '? Toodles, with fine discernment, again whined pitifully. Well, then, if yo' ain't a goin' to be satisfied down deah, I reckon Mollie'll hev to come and tote yo'all up aftah all. And, lighting a lamp, she shufllled down the steps and picked the fluffy, white dog up in her arms. Bress yo' old sweet heaht! she said, as she carried him up the stairs. Molly didn't have no intentions of lettin' yo' stay away down in de dahk, far off from evuhbody, noway. No suh! you's goin' to have yo' pillow in Mollie's room, ies' like yo'all wants it. Iittle lovin' dawg! And she carried him away to her room, bestowing lavish caresses the while. Toodles only smiled as dogs sometimes do. r 1 - -DAISY SCHITLZ, '21, S sf 1- de stahs at night.

Munching the three for two cent treasures, I walked into my home, and informed my rice-needy mother that she had tailed to provide sutlicient funds for the rice. -THEODORE MEDIAS, '21.

N., If there is any change, you may buy some candy, she said. ' Hurrying to the store, I approached the candy counter and amused myself by wondering what I would buy with the penny's change.

I next held out my dime and told the clerk I wanted a pound of rice. But child, he said, you have not enough money. Rice is ten cents a pound. Little did it occur to me to return the candy and get the rice. Well, said I, after a long pause, I'll keep these, pointing to the candy, which I held tightly in my hand. . The man gave me the change, and I started home. As I entered the house, I gave the money to my much astonished mother, telling her that I had bought the candy, but that she had not given me enough money for the rice. -GOLDIE BERNSTEIN, '21.

The realization came upon the family quite suddenly, after Mother had men- tioned the number of candles his next birthday cake would flaunt. They hadn't noticed it before, but Father was getting to the place where he needed to take care of him- 'self. A family as modern as the Warrens couldn't allow Father to reach advanced age in that comfortable rotun- dity which used to be considered quite proper. And he was increasing alarmingly in weight. After exertion of any length he even showed signs of exhaustion. - The breakfast table was a convenient place for dis- cussion. Many weighty matters had been debated and finally settled over the cereal and grape fruit. Never before had the spirit of reform, which causes turmoil in so many households, been so rampant as now. Bob was the chief propounder of miraculous and high-sounding reforms, the nature of which depended solely upon the last book devoured. fLiving up to his guiding proverb, in which he exchanged the one knock of oppor- tunity to many and added a startling phrase concerning the seizing of all of them, he pounced eagerly upon this experimentj Yes, Father, I'll bring home that book on 'Keeping Fit at Sixtyf Bob aired his wisdom, By using the things nature has given you, you can be the picture of health. Here Father made a mental note of the fact, that not for years had he felt other than the picture of health. It'l1 take grit, because it means sacrifices. You'll feel like twenty in a month, Bob asserted firmly. You bet! You'll feel like twenty in a month. From behind the morning paper, Father was silent. Except on the occasions when the fervor of the debaters became too intense, he seemingly was a deaf audience. The fact that it was his fate being decided, did not disturb his serenity. He was experienced in the art of graceful submission, for he valued a peaceful atmosphere above any mere triumph of words. JLIST 'P'F'PL-4539. He hnished the meal, folded the paper with much undue rustling and brought out his pipe with a long practiced flourish. After a few reflective puffs he left the room, with the same cheery Good-bye, everybody, that he had used for years. Bob shook his head dismally. Until that day, he had noticed nothing dangerous in these firmly rooted habits. Father's in a rut, and we'll have to pull him out. Yes, they say it's perfectly wonderful what a difference the proper exercise makes in a person. Lois was youthfully enthusiastic. The days are past when a man could settle down.and watch himself grow old. I think it's a great idea, don't you, mother? - Mother wasn't sure. She had old-fashioned ideas about many things, but relinquished them good-naturedly to the children. Even that evening, when Bob insisted that she substitute milk and eggs for Father's beloved coffee and steak, her protest was mild. But she watched anxiously as Father settled himself at the table. What's this? He feigned surprise at the meager repast. Oh, just a part of the course in keeping fit, Bob explained casually. Keeping fit? Keeping fit ? Father repeated in a diaphanous attempt at good humor. Yes, you know you can't eat pie or d1'ink coffee if you want good health. Suddenly Father's tone changed sharply. No more of this foolishness, son. I'll do it once, but never again. As usual, at the end of the meal he produced his pipe. Take away anything but his pipe, and he could endure life. He was about to launch into a eulogistic declamation on the after-dinner pipe, when Bob jumped up in alarm. Stop! Why that's the worst thing you can do. Smoking's on the ban, too, if you want to keep fit. Bob's warmth aroused Father, who pointed out with equal intensity the danger in taking away suddenly anything so much a part of his daily life. Not since Bob and Lois were at the headstrong age, had a Warren meal been so stormy. For a while, the squall dangerously rocked the domestic boat. By bed time, however, the strained relations had eased a bit. Father was restored to a semblance of good-nature, and Bob's pride was healing from the bruises it had suffered. Condescending an amiable good night, Father went up stairs whistling The Old Oaken Bucket. The quaint A l' Q54 . I -.JQST 'EFIWTL-WIS? strain lasted until the bedroom door creaked, then stopped in the middle of a warble. Bob sensed the reason and hurried to explain. Father was standing outside the door, the picture of outraged fatherhood. His room was unrecognizable. The bed had been torn from the corner where it had snuggled for years, and now stood blandly before the open window. The rocker, in which he smoked his last pipe each night, was gone. The room was devoid of furnitureg every beloved treasure had been rudely moved. This was enough to snap the most elastic disposition. I say, Father -Bob affected geniality- you know the book says you must have plenty of fresh air while you are sleeping. And you have to have the room for the exercises you are going to take every night and morning. Let's start right away. Start'? Start what? Father gasped in indignation. Why, the exercises. Don't be an old fogy, Father. Now just try it. It'll make you feel like twenty. Come on, be a good sport, I knew you would. Only once, I said. Father was rolling up his sleeves firmly. Only once! For an hour he strided and lowered and jumped until perspiration bedewed his flushed brow. Bob was an earnest teacher and Father retired, utterly exhausted, to awaken the next morning with every muscle creaking. How do you feel ? Bob asked in a conciliatory tone at the breakfast table. Not like twenty! Father snorted from behind his paper. The meal was begun with a state of war threatening, but Father's balmy nature could'nt long remain stormy. At least Bob attributed his sudden good humor to his sunny disposition. His change in spirit seemed to have happened in a moment. Through a word diplomatically inserted here and there, son had him on friendly relations again. Bob thought he detected a peculiarly bright twinkle in his eye, for one so recently angered. But then, he reflected, Father was wise enough to know that this keep fit course was a good thing. That night Father didn't appear until long after the evening meal. Except for a little fluttering, Mother appeared not to notice his absence, a fact which surprised Bob. When he finally sauntered in, he was whistling. He carefully evaded any question concerning his absence and affably engaged in conversation with Mother. Bob was suspicious, and before Father removed his spectacles preparatory to retiring, he slipped upstairs. Everything was as prescribed in the room. Queer, but there was a slip somewhere. A slight rustling in the adjoining closet caught his attention. He opened the door cautiously. In the middle of the large airy place stood a little red table, a childhood toy, bearing the remains of a regal supper. Underneath, playfully toying with the evening paper sat Tabby, Father's especial pet. Quite a cozy little retreat No wonder he didn't come to a supper of milk and eggs. The joke was on Bob. As he went down the hall, from below, the strain of The Old Oaken Bucket, picked out on the piano with one finger, floated upstairs borne on a faint aroma of tobacco smoke. Lois put her head out as he passed. Who is that '? Bob smiled. Oh, just Father. -MARGARET JENKINS, '21, M A X ' ' wc, . v4,CC',S'f6 LCSA fittq-L JB?-3qSi'f,Q4mUfbxMdXaa fM-LWMAWMTMWMJ 5 MQWZ, 7vZ w - MMM mm Q 5, L Ll Q.lQ,1,faz0AQfT,?J5L,2 M Us Z- A 72 MfaLmff7 jg f3y4i,f'v11-ff' f 41, I KV, I, . gk '! 1-FM2fl 'eQ'N ' 09 A -,f X K ,X ww 712' WZM 22. fgfv AKfg::t.Qk4ff66',xX!2 fda -22' A,.

The reason lay in the menu, which, ever since their coming, had read something like this: Rabbit Stew Fried Rabbit Broiled Rabbit ' Rabbit a la England, etc., etc. The ranking lieutenant of the company looked at the rows of untouched plates containing rabbit in some form or other. He realized that an underfed, discontented division would be none to his credit, and that something must be done. Nothing more than rabbit was available, and he was no magician. A long conference with the cook failed to bring any results. The lieutenant paced the Hoor and then began inspecting the shelves. Among other things he found some prunes, pickles, and a variety ol' spices. He looked thoughtful for a while, and then grinned as he called the cook to his side. Do you think we can work it? he asked. The cook nodded. Chicken Fricassee glared the doughboys in the face, the next morn- ing. The proverbial thunderbolt out of a clear sky could not have surprised them any more than this sign did. They could not believe the witness of their eyes. lt was too good to be true. On this day there were no men straggling into the mess hall: in their stead, a yelling, pushing, jubilant crowd formed when dinner time was yet an hour off. When the doors of the eat house were at last thrown open, the men rushed in like so many starving maniacs: and when the mess was placed on the table, there was a general shout of, Oh, man: and then not another sound but that of grinding teeth was heard. ' In the kitchen, the pickles and prunes were gone, the spice in the cans had diminished greatly, and the pot where the day-before-leavings were usually kept, was empty. The lieutenant heaved a sigh of relief, watched a while longer, and then winked at the cook, who was rubbing his beefy hands together. As he made his exit, he muttered, You don't always have to hypnotize a man to make him think he's eating sugar when you're feeding him strychnine. -THEODORE MEDIAS, '21. blmitw-ale uled to come off three days later, and Coach Lane had e 'rf 1 rm ' 4-1 QL .f. T D Y-'l l l. , - 1 l.i,l LITQ5 1 fill. 1 fn ' ff v U q X9 -. s J A 1 i , H ' ' HE gridiron shook with a chorus of cheers as the home eleven trotted upon the field. Every Marathon rooter was on his feet. calling vociferously on the various s . . members of the team to sock it to 'em, eat 'em upf' Q and, in other various ways, to disintegrate the oppos- N , r ing players. Even Fatty Burgess, acknowledged as ml . the heaviest-weight of Marathon High, was busily R x f engaged in preserving his balance, and in admonish- N 'f ing the tackles not to leave a grease spot of 'emf' XJ It was the semi-final game of the season, for many A I Q years played with Oakland High School of Freemont. Q, it The last contest between the'two opposing teams A iimlm. had resulted in a victory for Oakland, and this year, Marathon was eagerly hoping for adequate retaliation. f The final game with Wales High of Freemont, the fs crowning feature of the football season, was sched- predicted that if Marathon defeated Oakland by a reasonable margin, their chances would be above par in the closing contest. In the mind of every loyal rooter, these chances had their foundation in Ransdall, star quarter- back of the team. Meanwhile, Ransdall and his team-mates were forming their line for the kick-off. The whistle sounded, and the fray began. The ball sailed far back to Oakland's forty-yard line before it was finally captured by the huge center, and he was forced to the ground, almost immediately, by the quarter-back of the home team. A The bleachers shrilled their exultation. Never had there been a lie-eter quarter! So it seemedg for Ransdall and his fellows, working like a power- ful battering ram, literally overran the opposing team. An over-whelming victory for Marathon was apparent. The first half ended with a score of 24-0, Marathon. While the exuberant students paraded up and down the field to the HRH-ZR-Bldlllt-HllD -lIl'lEmlST tune of Cheer, Boys, Cheer! Ransdall andihis comrades were having a refreshing rub-down and a bowl of soup in the dressing quarters. I don't see how we can possibly beat them, jokingly remarked Ransdall, as he swallowed the hot soup which the Chinese cook, hired for such occasions, had just handed him. They've run up too much of a score! -We haven't got a chance! YH Nope, acquiesced Nelson, the center. Hlmpossible. 'tCall off the funeral, and let's go! urged Patrel, the full-back. We want iifty points this game! Again they swept upon the field. After the preliminary practice, the whistle sent the ball sailing towards the Marathon goal forthe beginning of the second half. Suddenly, the watchers on the side lines noticed that there was something wrong with Ransdall. He was perceptibly slower, alarmingly so, indeed! He missed an easy forward pass, and the home rooters groaned in unison for the Hrst time during the contest. Oakland scored their first touchdown. Things grew worse! The score was tied, and only five minutes remained in which to play. Ransdall was experienc- ing one of the queerest battles of his life. He had never felt so tired and weak. He seemed to be dragging heavy chains wherever he went. Even his mentality was numbed. He stumbled along as if in a dream. Someone on the bleachers uttered the terrible condemnation, :'He's yellow! and the malediction immediately spread. There was no other explanation but that Ransdall was really a quitter. Some of the most loyal ones kept silent, but that did not remedy the situation. Things went on from bad to worse, for ltlarathon, until, by the final touchdown of the day, Nelson saved the day. The following afternoon, Fatty Burgess came to visit Ransdall at his home. He was the first school mate to seek the quarter-back since the game which had ruined the player's reputation. Ransdall had not ventured out. He was busily engaged at his pet hobby. His chum found him in his room, surrounded by chemical paraphernelia of all kinds. He tactfully refrained from mentioning Ransdall's disgrace of yesterday. Well, old top, he exclaimed, I see you're at it again! Oh yes. rejoined the former star thoughtfully. You gonna give me another lesson? laughingly queried Tubby, refeiriiig to the Iact that Ransdall was in the habit of explaining all of his ideas to his svmpathizing chum. Take a seat, please, mocked Rannyg I will proceed to demonstrate. Here we have a white mouse, genus rum-rumious, guaranteed to be a mouse, and here are samples of chloral acetamide, aldol, cyanhydrin, and HUHRTEH-BFIEKK-HUD -EH-EmlST hydrate. I will now dip a grain of corn into this chloral hydrate, and feed it to the rum-rumious. You percieve ! The mouse actually began to show symptoms of its dose. Whereas formerly it had run lightly about, it now could hardly move. Its features stiffened, and it died in exactly three minutes. Looks sompin' like you did yesterday, remarked Tubby thought- lessly. - Hum, so it does, agreed Ransdallg and he grew thoughtful. I-finally he pulled himself together and grabbed his hat and coat. Whatcha gonna do? queried Burgess. ':Come on, was all that Ranny would say. The quarter-back led his companion at a running gait to the football field. Long before he got there, Tubby was puffing along behind. Ranny's actions were a complete puzzle to the mystified fat boy. The quarter entered the dressing room with a skeleton key, seized an innocent looking bottle which he found on the cooking table, and the fished out a little cold soup in the bottom of a bowl near by. It was the bowl from which he had obtained nourishment the day before. He poured the soup into another bottle which he had in his pocket. Say! Are you hungry? scornfully asked Tubby. It's lucky the cook wasn't cleanly enough to wash up, answered Ranny. 'fHuh, uttered his thoroughly disgusted companiong you'd better go see the cook about it, and reward him! That's just exactly what I'm going to do, rejoined the quarter, smiling. Sure enough, he set out towards the little shanty in which lived the Chinese representative in question. Tubby5' saw him knock at the door and go inside. Through the little window he watched, while Ranny conversed earnestly with the owner of the pig-tail. Finally he saw Ranny give the Chinese a half-dollar. Loony! sorrowfully thought Tubby as he followed the youthful exploiter back to his home. Ranny hurried straight to his room, and began to experiment with the contents of the two bottles he had brought. He gave a second mouse a dose from the first bottle, and it died almost immediately. He dropped a powder into the soup: a jelly-like precipitate formed, and he killed a third mouse with it. Oh, exclaimed Tubby. He had begun to see light. By the next evening, thanks to the efforts of Fatty, the whole school was prepared to hear the principal give a startling account of a rare bit of treachery. The fact that a player on the Oakland team had given the Chinese cook a new seasoning, which he said Ranny had told him to have placed in his soup, was the big detail which had been missing up to that time. The following afternoon, a rejuvenated quarter-back and star player led his team to victory against Wales. -BROOKS BLOSSOM, '22. 1 - NJ NE morning, at about 8 :40 o'clock, a brave Shortridge lad was strolling about the extensive ground of our beloved I Z A school, when a faint odor of smoke was borne to him on the breeze. Startled by this unusual scent, for Mr. Buck had been waging a victorious war on those addicted to the ter- rible pleasures oi' tobacco, our hero set off like a blood- group of law-breakers, an ominous column of smoke issu- 5 ing from a basement window. With truly noble spirit he y . dashed madly into the oflice, where he found the usual N, rrf ' I ? f i df . . . hound. But what was his surprise to find, instead of a small r Q A ,ily ' ff , Q 1 if K All ne awaiting Mr. Dirks' jurisdiction. He meekly took his place in the line and waited his turn. In the meantime, others had noticed the smoke, and Mr. Wade valiantly took a fire extinguisher and dashed amid the llames. He quickly emerged with some singed hair and the tiny extinguisher, which secnied to have added vigor to the Haines. By this time our hero, now coming to his turn, politely wished Mr. Di1'ks a good morning, and then carelessly added that the old building was ablaze. The alarm was immediately rung, and everyone gleefully turned out. As soon as the cause oi' this pleasant recess from the honors of Latin, Geometry, Physics, etc., was made known, several youths, realizing the danger, decided school was no place for them, and so hastened ,ioyfully to the nearest movie. Many others hastened to follow this cautious example. A large crowd gathered about the main point of interest, and watched with dying hopes, as the red flames turned to harmless smoke. As soon as the nre began to fade away, Mr. Buck threw a cordon around the school to prevent further departure on the part of the students, to whom he gave orders to gather in the auditorium. Hither all the unfor- tunates went like lambs to the slaughter. The sad announcement was then made that all classes would continue. By this time rumors had reached Tech and Manual. At Tech it was known that Mr. Buck had perished in the flames in an effort to save a poor little Freshman girl. At Manual it was authentically reported that eight hundred students had been pinned beneath a falling wall. However, despite these rumors, aside from our respected chemistry teacher's crisply curled locks, no catastrophe was evident. Thus ended the terrible fire, and it is my earnest hope that never again will a fire-at least such an uninteresting one-break out at Shortridge unless I am there to see it. -JACK STREET, '21, is mu. nan :oo Mu.

Gforge voiced the sentiments of the family: Gee whiz, I won't feel natural spending a nickel for a Saturday Evening Posl. For almost a year the Snarker family, nine according to the census, had been practicing the strictest econfmy in order to acquire a further adornment to their fire room flat: to wit, dervenport. None of your cheap apologies, which, when unfolded, rcqulrezl the combined efforts of the janitor and the people across the hall to get it put back together, but a real honest-to-goodness, tliirty-itiiie dollars and fifty cent one with a guaranteed mattress, such as one sees in plciuris, with a bull-dog gamely tugging at its indestructible stuiingj. From the blond, sophisticated Estelle, who worked in one of the big oillceu in th: city, to the also blonde but not so sophisticated Marie, aged Dye. who, though rather hazy as to the general aim of all this penury, was doing her utmost to the extent of a penny-a-week allowance, thcy had all had their linger in the pie. After George had unbosfmccl himself, the paternal fountain-head of wisdom was struck by an idia which he speedily communicated to the rest. I'll tell you whit! lfll tr-lie the money down in the morning and get four ten-dollar gold pierce fc? itf' This by virtue of a bookkeepership in the the Farmers' Savings and Trust Company. It'll be fine for your mother to go in and slap down four gold pieces like that. None of this cheap installment sluf fcr me! We pay cash. Already Mrs. E'1131'kcr had made full preparation for the momentous occasion. Her dearest enemy, Mrs. Henrietta Smee, who was reputed to have henpeclicel licgsglf into a substantial life insurance setileiirnt, and THEDDUBTFUL' DHlJEll?URT who, as a result, was putting on unbecoming airs, was to accompany her. Mrs. Smee was silenced for once by the reported magnitude of the purchase. Gee Y rhapsodized Estelle internally, this'll come in handy with that new fellow I met today. Carefully depositing her chewing gum on the bed post, she made ready to retire. The next afternoon, in all her glory, Mrs. Snarker set about the busi- ness of buying the davenport. Talking busily about the rumored break in the O'Farrell family, due to Mr. O'Farrell's propensity for violence when influenced by the current quality of hooch, they at length arrived down town. They arrived at the scene of battle and a gentlemanly salesman took them in charge. Mrs. Snarker knew already what kind of a davenport she wanted, but she was not sure what kind of upholstering should adorn it. The salesman mentally reviewed the possibilities and girded himselfg as it were, to sell her the onlyone in the house. Mrs. Smee was of the opinion that it wouldn't 'gon well with the wall paper, but in her over- awed condition she offered a more feeble resistance than usual. However, the salesman had a line that Mrs. Snarker fell for. and after the detail of choosing the davenport, she fumbled for her purse. My Lord, Henrietta! I've lost my purse! A hurry-up call to the Farmers' Saving and Trust brought home Mr. Snarker, literally on the gallop. Mrs. Snarker had evidently sensed that Mrs. Snice had not been so enthusiastic in her condolences as she might have been, but the look in her eye warned Wellington not to bandy words wi E21 her. After having ascertained the circumstances as nearly as possibley he telephoned the street car company, and was politely informed that seldom did such an article get past the conductor, let alone the reclaim oflice. Of course the police would be useless, but it would be a comfort to tell them about it, so he telephoned them. He was assured that the niatter would be given immediate tatention and that all patrolmen would be instructed to watch the spenders of en-dollar gold pieces. The hopeful desk-sergean advised the placing of a want-ad in the paper. By this time the family was assembling in numbers. I knew it, groaned George, it didn't seem right to be blowing in eight cents for a 'cokef Here's where I hand this guy a line for another nine months.

THEDUUBTFUL' DHVEUPURT To cap Mrs. Snarker's climax, Mrs. Smee acquired a tip top table, which she fiendishly told Mr. Snarker was the only thing to have because of the way its top tilted out of the way when the bed was out. Despairing of the efficacy of the want-ad, they allowed it to lapse. Finally, one evening, Mr. Snarker appeared in a terrible turmoil. He could hardly wait to get inside the door before he pulled from his pocket an envelope. Before the astonished faces of his off-spring he read the fol- lowing epistle: deer sir i am a barber which lives in amarillo tex the other day a customer left one of your newspapers. i seen youre advertizement in it. i found the perse when i was riding on the trolly to the station to take the trane to come back hear and i didn't have no time to do nothing about it but will send same if you send back reward. yours afectionately, William P.

Place: Spicers Ford, a small mountain town in Kentucky. Characters: Lieutenant Jesse Hollmang John Hollman, his father, Sally Hollman, his mother: Joe Dalton, a neighborg Jimmy Dalton, his song George Larison, a vaudeville managerg Carter Mills, Sally Hollman's father. fThe scene is laid in the Hollman cabin. A large open fire throws fantastic shadows on the white-washed walls and simple furnishings. The only other light in the room is from an oil lamp set on a small table at one end of the room. All are grouped around the tire: Jesse Hollman, in the uniform of a lieutenant, is seated in the center of the group. It is his nrst night at home from France where he has per- formed an unparalleled act of bravery.J ACT 1 ' John Hollman: fproudlyl Well Jess, we're mighty proud of ye. Land, I reckon ye just about busted all the records over thar in France. Why, guess what come todayi Sally Hollman: A letter from South Americy, Jess! And- ' John Hollman: Now hush up Sally! And what d'ye think it said? Said they'd be highly honored if Lieutenant Hollman would tower Argentine in the near future. And of course ye'll go. Land, I wouldn't be more stuck up if ye was 'lected president. I'm just about to bust now. Carter Mills: Now look-ahere Jesse, ye don't want to sail around with your nose in the clouds jest because ye've did yer duty. I reckon- Sally Holhnan: What air ye sayin' pa! .less has got better cause'n any one I know to feel proud. If you'd captured thirty machine guns and a hundred and ninety Germans all alone, ye wouldn't be talkin' that way. Carter Mills: Well, but it don't look right to me, somehow to blow so. 'Taint been the custom of the Mills ner the Hollmans neither. Sally Hollman: Blowin'? IVho's blowin'? Not Jess! Joe Dalton: Jess, ye han't said a word about it yet. Ain't ye glad? Speak up, son! Jimmy Dalton: Where's all yer medals, Jess? How many hev ye got?-Twelve! Joe Dalton: Twenty,more likely! Jesse Hollman: Slow up, Joe. I'm not the whole American Army! I don't know how many I have got. Seven, I guess. But let's talk about something else, for tonight anyway. Then I'll make ye a speech out thar on the stile if necessary. But what's the news around here? How's Purvey and his smithy? And where's Annie? I haven't got a glimpse of her yet. Will she be over tonight? .lohn Hollman: fSlowlyp Now see here, Jess, Annie was all very well three year ago, but seein' how things has come out, we all understands, and she does too, thet ye ain't bounrlen to her no more. Ye're a great man now-what was it thet letter said, Sally?-Oh, yes! A international hero! And I guess international heroes kin about hev their pick of wives. And what do ye mean- Purvey's smithy ? Ye don't mean ye're goin' back thar fer seventy-nine cents a day! I guess not! Ye could git two hundred a week in Argentine! No, I reckon ye'd better give up the idee of Annie and Purvey's slnithy. Why, I wouldn't be a bit surprised an'- THE-Ul .BSU LE-DF-H-HERE Jesse Hollman: Hold on, dad! I reckon I'm jest about the same inside as when I left. An' as for Annie-Why for the yast tive years I've never planned the future without her. I guess, grandad, you know what the right woman means to a man? No. dad, Annie's my pick of wives ! What's got into ye all'? I think like grandad here- fKnocking is heard at door. Sally opens it.l George Larison: fOutsidel Is this the Hollman place? Sally Hollman: tin excited voicel Yes, mister, it is. Step right in. Larison: Thank you, madam, fhands her his hath Larison is my name. I would like to speak to Lieutenant Hollman, if you please. Jesse Hollman: tcoming forwardl That's my name, Mr. Larison. Won't you sit down? Larison: tshaking Jesse's hand and seating himselfb I feel greatly honored to meet you, Lieutenant, and I'll not take any more of your time than is necessary. I am assistant manager of the Orpheum Vaudeville Circuit, and am here to sfe about obtaining some of your time. I have the contract here. It only lacks your signature. I can offer you a thousand a week. Needless to say, we would feel ourselves fortunate if you would consider the proposition. tSilence for a few moments, Larison politely waiting for Jesse's answer, Jesse looking uncomfortable, and the others staring incredulously. Then Jesse breaks the silence.J Jesse: I thank ye a mighty lot, Mr. Larison, and I hate to disappoint ye, and fturning to his fatherj a thousand dollars is sure some increase in wages, eh Dad? But I can't take money from American citizens fer just braggin' to 'em about what I did in France. Mebbe you never looked at it that way, and I ain't blamin' ye any, but it seems to me thet thet's about the low-downist thing I could do, now. Like Jacob sellin' his birth-right fer a mess 0' pottage. If I've done half as much as you all say I have, I can't spoil it by turnin' it into gain fer myself. I reckon thet heroism, if it is heroism, means sacriiice, an' so-well I can't seem to say what I want to, but I can't accept your offer, Mr. Larison. tHe pauses. Every one gasps except Jesse's grandfather, whose eyes are shining. Jesse continues.l Jesse: I haven't said anything about it to the folks, but I've just about got my job planned out. Many's the time I've thought it all over, lyin' rolled up in my blanket and lookin' up at the stars. I thought thet, since everyone was makin' such a fuss over me takin' a few Germans and guns, thet mebbe they'd listen to me if I went all over the country and asked them to give good schools to little mountain children like Jimmy here, so they can grow up to be good citizens. I thought thet I'd helped to do away with soldiers and war, I thought thet what we need now is educated men and women, who can carry on the work us soldiers have begun. What I did over thar means nothing. The war would have been won without me. But what I'm goin' to do, means everything to the little mountain folks and to the country. Larison: I see, Lieutenant, that your mind is made up, and you're not the kind that will be urged. Of course as manager of the Orpheum Vaudeville I regret your decision, but as a man I admire and respect it, and I wish you success in your chosen work, Good night, sir. tHe shakes Jesse's hand again, picks up his hat, and leaVes.J John Hollman: Jesse Hollman!

CODE 'iilIllllE -ST'R.EliT- C IRS OR the beneht of those fortunate individuals who have never travelled on a street car and whose idea of a street car, therefore, is not associated with that of a sardine can, I shall proceed to throw some light on this subject. A street car is a portable, condensing device, having corrugated iioors and octagonal wheels. It is very well warmed in the summer, and in the winter its ventilation is unsurpassed. The chief purpose of the street car is to transport P people from one part of a city to another party but it also makes an excellent excuse for the doctors whenever no other cause for an epidemic can be found. In such cases, street car sani- tation is spread all over the front of the daily newspapers, with the result that two ventilators are kept open on each ca1'. M Q Theoretically, st1'eet cars run at stated intervals and pass a given point at a given time, but I have long been of the opinion that the person who arranged that schedule was a member of the Optimists' Club. This idealist would have cars running with clock-like regularity, but he appar- ently doesn't know street carsg for street cars are inclined to be sociable and prefer to group themselves as close together as they can. This leaves between groups a long stretch through which imaginary cars are flitting back and forth. Now this is all very well, but people do not ride on their imaginations. The only people who do not class the service as the worst ever are the people who don't ride on the street cars. Occasionally a real estate agent, when talking to a prospective victim, desc1'ibes the service in glow- ing terms. About every so often an old relic of the ante bellum days makes a public appearance-one of the old obsolete pay if you want tog get on at both ends variety. To be more specific, a car which the passenger boards, and who, when the conductor comes around, lets his conscience be his guide. It is easy to understand how economical it is to develop an offended, What's th' matter with yuh, I paid yuh look. This expres- sion is very effective, as is the far-away stare or yesterday's transfer resting daintily in the coat pocket. Another species, known as summer cars, is migratory, appearing only in the summer, and is easily distinguished from other cars by the coloring, which is a somewhat less brilliant hue, and by the fact that it is open to dust. A properly constructed summer car will convert a summer shower into a splendid shower bath without extra charge, whatsoever. But the reader may receive the impression that the life of a street car passenger is one of continual tormentg and so it is, to a certain degree, EUUl1Elillllll2-YTRFFT CHRS 1. 4 Q and yet, along with its disadvantages there are certain enjoyments. For instance, the passing of a fire department is quite an attraction when viewed by the contents of a street carg two or three are simply sensa- tional. Then too, the street car library, pasted just above the windows, is very interesting upon the first reading, and leaves no vestige of a doubt as to what is the best in any particular line mentioned. A harmless little game which is indulged in by persons reading the daily papers, is that of trying to fold the newspaper so that the owner can see the greatest possible amount of news, and so that, at the same time, the people around can see practically none of the reading matter. The game has been practiced so long that both the reader and the person trying to read have become expert along this line. But after all, street cars, crowded or not, disagreeable or otherwise, at least answer the purpose for which they were intended, that is, of conveying as great a number of people at as low a rate as possible. Let him who complains either suggest some way of improving conditions, or let him forever hold his peace. As for myself, and I trust that I may speak for my companions in misery, I shall continue to ride on the street cars, and I am confident that they will be running long after I shall have become so old that my daughter-in-law will breathe a sigh of relief when I leave the house, and even when I shall be helping to push up the grass in Crown Hill. And if you consider the matter carefully, I believe that you will agree with me. - -ROBERT PARKER, '21.

Tl'lElR'D N4 PlT1D'DLlF!S, INCE November 21, 1620, the memory of the Pilgrim 41 fathers has been engraved in ineifaceable characters on AX the scroll of history. The story of these our heroic prede- Y cessors has never been dim in the minds of succeeding generations. John Endicott, Governor Bradstreet, Gover- ,. nor Winthrop, and Miles Standish are among those added 6' ,, I to the everlasting roster of world heroes. These men laid .7 the cornerstone of our nation. Their strength has been extolled, their courage, lauded, and their honor, praised throughout seven generations. That they were hardy, self- sacrificing, fearless, conscientious men, We have learned from countless panegyrics by innumerable authors. ' With this true reverence for our forefathers, has come a lower regard for our present day. There is a general impression that our country's best days lie behind us, that we no longer find outstanding figures possess- ing the gallant traits of our progenitors, and that the characteristics of the Pilgrims are never to impel the modern man to action. In short, there is a widespread disposition to croak. In bemoaning our degraded state of affairs, we fail to observe that the gods have again been good, and have given to the present era, one possessing the commanding traits of the Pilgrims, reproduced in all their original glory. Theodore Roosevelt, the scion of a family of Wealth, possessing from birth a body slighted by nature, facing low moral standards and insidious corrupting influences, emerged like a Puritan, triumphant from the testing fires. Never did he succumb to the pernicious opportunities afforded by wealth, never did he falter in his path of rightg even the barriers of nature he surmounted, and builded for himself a physical strength to be envied. Roosevelt exemplified all the rugged strength, the upright honesty, the dauntless courage, and the admirable simplicity of character so eulogized in our forefathers. And he made one step in advance, always he was cheerful, hopeful, happy in spirit-they Were not. Roosevelt was our man, of our day, and is eternal proof that We are not deteriorating. The magic of Time lends a glamour to the past, hiding the dark spots and permitting only the pure gold to shine through. We need not fear for our place on history's record, for we, too, will ever be remembered for the noble deeds of the great men of our epoch. -DOUGLAS COOK. fChosen to represent the Shortridge Alumni of 1920.1 ,FWD-DF-DREFUTS HEN the glowing haze of night Hangs from east to West, And the gentle breeze of ev'n, Wafts sweet tho'ts of restg Then the dross of earthly life, Shines and glows and gleamsg Then every man 'mong high and low, ' Is King, in Land of Dreams. s When the orb of golden splendor, ' Dips yon rugged hills, Bathing all in fiery wonder, Gilding faults and ills, Then from out the human heart Goodness nobly beamsg Then every man of every shore, Rules King, in Land of Dreams.

But, intent upon that one ve object, namely, to obtain knowledge, we a1'e too preoccu- ,N5 pied to note them. For this reason, dear reader, I shall ' rehearse to you a most tragic incident which happened I not long ago in one of the classes of an excellent teacher -- whom I am about to mention. 1-..r fbi' u , In this class there are two eminent Caesar stars- E cousins-a boy and a girl, who have so enjoyed their as A1125 research in this ancient tongue, that they have at times repeated a part of the course solely for the love of it. One evening when said cousins were most prodigiously preparing a lesson in Latin composition, our heroine failed to understand the con- struction of a particular sentence. Our hero rescued our heroine from further exasperation by a most logical explanation. We know not whether it was the appealing appearance of the fair lady or merely the fact that our hero is subject to frequent fits of jocularity, that impelled him to exclaim, Woman, thou art most dense. Rememb'rest thou not that when the verb 'throw' is preceded by a subject and followed by an object and a prepositional phrase, the adjective 'poor' is placed before the object of the preposition when it is translated into the original tongue? Alas again! For with untold rapture she mistook the villain's words for the truth, We shall pass now to the class room where the teacher presides as monarchess over the select and brilliant assembly of subjects. She points out and designates with her eyes, as friend Cicero would say, our fair lady as the destined one. Our heroine reads, The men throw stones at the poor Romans. Horrified, the pedagogue proceeds to inquire whence comes the unwel- comed adjective. Our heroine, likewise horrified at the displeasing effect that said adjective has upon the instructor, without delay recites for her the villain's axiom. With a flashing of her beautiful eyes the preceptor turns upon the hero, demanding an immediate explanation. And I tell you truly, dear 1'eader, that worse perturbation than then ensued, never before existed within the walls of our dear Alma Mater. Here words fail me: for it requires more skill than I posseses to portray to you in living colors the conclusion of this dire tragedy. -KATHRYN BOWLBY, '23.

No alibi need be offeredg it was just a plain case of lack of experienced or prospective athletes. It was through no fault of the coaches or student body that the past 1920-21 seasons have not brought to light a consistent winner among the Shortridge teams. It might be said that the football and track teams showed the most stuff although neither one set the sporting world agog. Basket ball and base- ball brought forth the poorest material in years. Tennis. golf, and bowling came in for their share of interest and glory. With the exception of one or two men, the football team was made up of mediocre material that was trained down to the minute. Head Coach Julius got the maximum amount of scientific play out of his men, a fact which accounts for the success that came to the gridders. Brain and not brawn advanced the oval many yards for the Blue and White. Two won and four dropped was the final count. With nine games won and eighteen lost, the basket season of 1920-21 can not be called a success so far as per cent. is concerned. However, if the insurmountable ditiiculties, surrounding the last season's five are taken into consideration, the result of the twenty-seven games is not so disappointing. Inexperienced material and the best teams in the state as opponents are the major causes for the slim average. The seniors won the school basket honors by defeating class '22, 27-26, in a bang up battle. Ronald Garrett, hailing from Broad Ripple, was the whole works for the winners while Litz was the junior mainstay. Harvey led the seniors while Kilgore was the losers' captain. It was a 1'eal game of basket ball as one would judge by the score. Mr. Watson and Mr. Kuebler of the faculty are credited with putting across the largest tennis tourney that was ever held at any high school in the state. Over a hundred men signed up, and of these Dixon and Sagalowsky, showed wonderful form, while Edson Wood and Val McLeay were not far behind. Dixon, city junior champ with a slashing stroke and dazzling net game was the class of the tourney. The matches were held at Fairview and Brookside parks. Out oi' an entry list of seventeen men, Cooke Coen again won the golf tourney. Coen was right when it came to driving, and his approaches and green work were excellent for a youngster. The juvenile players of the city were entered, their game being pulled off at South Grove. peare Club to make a thorough study of the works of Shakespeare. This semester, the plays studied by the club were Othello and the Merchant of Yenice. The plays were read, and whenever possible the scenes were acted out. On one occa- sion a theater party was given by the club to see Othello. After the resignation of Miss Brayton as censor, Mrs. Thomas was elected to that office. The othcers are: Brooks Blossom, president: Jeannette Nunamaker, vice-president, Thelma Smith, secre- tary. This is one of the younger clubs, but it has L made a good start. mi l k?

The hikes this spring have been well at- tended and quite worth while. Miss Washburn, - assisted by Miss Allerdice and Mr. Hadley, is ' B ii g sponsor of the club.

I I7 P 135' q 1 HE record made by the All-Stars Girls Basket ball team this season proves the suitability of their name. Out of fourteen games, the team succeeded in winning thirteen. The only game lost was that with the N. A. G. U. whom the girls had defeated earlier in the season. Miss Bowser's able coaching combined with excellent material was the secret of the success. In commendation of their good work the girls have been awarded S's, the highest athletic award for girls. The substitutes have been awarded S. H. S.'s. The members of the team are: D. Trout- man, M. Martin, R. Benton, L. Caldwell, W. Farr, E. Saxon, D. Poindexter and D. Stephenson. Sub- stitutes: N. Fike, M. Fay, J. Forbes, N. Miller. NOTHER phase in girls' athletics is hockey, which has had a good season. This is the third fall that it has been played by Shortridge girls. Inter- scholastic games and a few with the N. A. G. U. were played. Mrs. Steichman and Mrs. Rice fostered the games. The members of the monogram team: D. Troutman, M. Martin, R. Benton, L. Cald- well, W. Farr, F. Jones, H. Gwartney, D. Poindex- ter, E. Hahn and A. Pellett. P. Poe and N. Morgan deserve honorable mention. . They will likely form a good nucleus for the hockey teams next year. Mafalda Martin's team won the intra-mural basket ball tournament from Wanda Farr's team. HE only sport of the year in which Shortridge did win success was bowling, under Mr. Watson and Mr. Kuebler. The Blue and White pin smashers won the singles: first, second, and third place in the doubles, and placed first in the city five-man team championship. In fact, Watson's proteges cleaned up everything that came along, Tech and Manual having not even a look-in. Powers, with unerring accuracy, hit the ma- ples for a total of 561 in the game, which netted him the singles championship against the other two local schools. Powell, pairing with Powers, copped the doubles with the faculty duo, Watson- Kuebler being close seconds. T is only a kid army, but the boys of today are the men of tomorrow. The Reserve Officers Train- ing Corps of today will be the Army of Democracy of tomorrow. Though little, and seemingly unrela- tive, the Shortridge R. O. T. C. is a branch of the U. S. Army for peace, harmony, and justice toward all men. They are but high school boys, yet loyalty to America and her ideals bids them do the tasks that are irksome. Through the efforts of Command- ant, Sergeant Frazer, assistant instructors, and cadet officers, the training has been such that Short- ridge stands high among the schools of the Central West in R. O. T. C. work.

Mr. Julius, former Indiana University pigskin star, was obtained as coach. A light but speedy team was whipped into shape, the lid-lifter going to Bloomfield 20-0. In the wick- edest battle of local high school play, the Blue and White were loused out by Tech 7-3. Manual also dropped Shortridge to the tune of 21-0. We also lost to Wabash, state champs, 27-0. The two games won were over Richmond and Brazil by 69-O, and 47-6 scores, respectively. Stull, Lotick, Mitchell, Harvey, Dunbar, Churchman, Bash, Taylor, El- more, Kilgore, Ray, Riley, Dithmer, Clark, Lusby and T. Smith were the season's mainstays. HE great national pastime, sometimes known as baseball, was received with such little interest by the North Side school that it was difficult for Julius to round out one good nine. There was a dearth of battery material, a condition which accounts for the club's mediocre showing. During the early part of the season, the Boys' Prep School and the Deaf and Dumb school were smothered, but as the season progressed and strong teams were met, many games were dropped. The men who showed up well are as follows: Harris, ssg Dixon, lbg Vickery, cf, Ferris, 3b3 Litz, cg Sagalowsky, rf, Brown, lf, Riley, 2bg Browne, p. FEW stars are all that kept the oldest high school in Indianapolis from dropping altogether from the track and field calcium. Kilgore and Captain Lotick are a pair of stars who performed brilliantly all season in the dashes and field events. Lotick the only Blue and White cinder path artist to go to the state meet in the last two years, was a consistent winner in every meet. Mitchell in the hurdles, Young in the high jump, and Nichols in the high hurdles and pole vault, are other men who helped ,bring Shortridge track honor. If ever a coach de- served success, Gorton didg for he worked with his men early and late.

On the offense, Kinzer, Litz and Churchman Went big, while,Riley and Kilgore were a host on the defense. Harvey, Harris, Vick- ery, Mitchell, Moody, and Daily all deserve credit for their work during the season. The curtain for the basket season came with the 23-12 defeat by Manual in the local sectional p ay. WENTY-FIVE boys sang in the Boys' Glee Club, this year, making the largest one Shortridge has ever had. Under the direction of Mr. C. E. Palmer, they sang songs of the college glee club type, pre- senting them at auditorium exercises. They also sang at the music memory contest, when they were well received. Some of the songs the boys have used are: Until the Dawn, by Parks, Yachting Glee, by Culbertson: Stepping Together, by Maceyg Ken- tucky Babe, by Geibel. They introduced our Pep Song to the school, in one program.

At Christmas time they gave the school pleasure by serenading with old carols, and twice they sang in the audi- torium. Some of the girls have given pleasure to the school by assisting on the programs of the all- girls parties. Margaret Waters who won in the school song contest, is a member of the Girls Glee Club. This year the club has been under the able directorship of Miss Ruth Overbaugh. NDER the direction of Mr. C. E. Palmer, the Short- ridge Band has maintained a membership of forty- two players, and has done some excellent playing. The band has played in the auditorium for pep meetings, at football and basket ball games, and at battalion reviews. Our boys also did their in the massed band concerts given by the three school bands. Nelson Adams was drum major until it necessary for him to leave school. He was ceeded by Paul Beville, in the spring semester. In addition to the regular band, from twelve to fifteen boys have received free instruction. part high YVRS SHC- HE Orchestra, with Mr. B. P. Osbon as director, has maintained its usual standard of excellence. Arnold Davis has been concert-master during the entire school year. On one occasion the orchestra gave a delightful concert at New Bethel. Numer- ous programs have also been given in the audi- torium. These have always been of a very high standard of musical excellence, and have included such selections as Marche Militaire fSchubertJ, Light Cavalry Overture fSuppeJ, Selections from Floradora fStuartD, Hail America! QDrummJ, Processional from Aida fVerdiJ, Minuet in G major fPaderewskiJ, and others.

Instead of giving the customary maga- zine reports at their meetings this year, the mem- bers gave reviews of books, or short stories by William Dean Howells, in addition to the original stories submitted. Miss Shields is the club censor, and the ofiicers for the year were Alexander Dowl- ing, president, Margaret Jenkins, vice-presidentg Henry Lindstrom, master of program. 'if' ,LTHOUGH the meetings of the Press Club have been few in number they have been of great value to the Echo scribes who comprise its membership. At two of the meetings very interesting and in- structive talks were given by Florence Webster Long and Thomas Hendricks, both well-known newspaper writers. The addresses were made in order to give the young writers some knowledge of the practical side of journalistic work. The success of this year's Christmas Echo may be largely attributed to the members and to Mr. Otto. Dorothy McCullough was president, Joseph Furnas, vice-president, and Dorothy Hatfield, secretary. , 'fm'-,f r h - 1 - .. T the end of the spring semester of 1921, the.

Harry Kimberj presided over the court, which heard prosecuting attorney Van Nuys QWyant Laycockb argue for the conviction of Eugene V. Debs fBrooks Blossomb. The illness of Miss Laura Donnan caused a loss most keenly felt by the Senate, but at no time was the influence of her noble spirit unfelt. High tribute must be paid to Mrs. Mary D. Ridge, who took her place. HE Therapon Club, the one honor organization of Shortridge, enjoyed its usual large membership and its many interesting activities during the past year. Two freshman parties were given, that freshmen and seniors might become better acquainted, and also a get-to-gether party. The latter was a little girls party, given at the home of Martha Petty- john. Mrs. Carey, club censor, won the prize as the most youthful looking, in her pinafore and ribbons.

HE Art Appreciation Club, althoughione of the new clubs of Shortridge, has accomplished some splen- did Work since its organization. The purpose of the club is, To learn the eternal principles of beauty common to all art, to study the mastership of all the ages, to know the art resources of our community: to give art service to the community when possible, and to enjoy friendship on the come mon basis of high ideals. During the course of the year the members of the club, under the splenr did direction of Mrs. Janet B. Bowles, made an intensive study of the Public Library. The oflice of president was held by Clarence Campbell, and Mary Covert acted as secretary. HE Wireless Club of 1920 'has been able, .through the addition of a detector and a three step amplifier to its set, to obtain the highest efficiency. This set has proved very satisfactory, as the radio en- thusiasts have been able to communicate with many of the important stations in the United States, as well as to hear from some of those of foreign nations. Every effort has been exercised in order to attain the most effective results. The officers for the past semester were: president, Kearsley Urichg vice-president, Carl Tuttle, secretary-treasurer, Marion Campbell. Mr. W. P. Crockett of the Physics department served as censor of the organ- ization as well as instructor of the class. FTER Robert Conder and John Ferris had captured first and second places, respectively, in the district discussion contest, and after the former had won second place in the state contest, the team of Joseph Furnas, Captain, John Ferris, and Henry Lind- strom defeated the Louisville team 2-1, while the trio composed of Theodore Medias, captain, Silas Reagan, and Fred Lees took the measure of the Cin- cinnati debaters 3-0. By virtue of the two victories Shortridge became tri-state debating champion. The ofiicers are: Robert Conder, president, Samuel Dinnin, vice-president, Joseph Furnas, secretary, Louis Rainier, treasurer. HE Commercial Club was organized November 11, 1920. Its purpose is to promote good fellowship among its members and to stimulate interest in commercial pursuits. The first ofiicers were: Dor- othy Lambert, president, Martha Jolliffe, vice- presidentg Eleanor Mueller, secretary, Bessie Bry- ant, treasurer, and Miss Beasley, censor. In addi- tion to the regular meetings held twice a month, the club has had a number of parties and excur- sions. The present oflicers are: Dorothy Voshell, president, Edgar Joseph, vice-president, Leo Kurz- rok, secretaryg Velma Danforth, treasurer, and Mr. Weinberger, censor. T WAS a new plan tried by the mathematics depart- :5 '.-. . M- W? . a. ii , A V ' if ment this year when a selected class was organized for Math V students. Only those students who had maintained A or A-l- records in previous mathe- matics, were admitted into the class. By this meth- od the best students are not restricted by the slow progress of mediocre class-mates, but have the privilege of a broader field for expansion. The plan has proved very successful and will probably be tried in other lines of work. The class was under the able instruction of Miss Adelaide Smith, and was known as the Math Va class.

Under the able censorship of Mrs. Thompson, dean of -girls, a number of new ideas reached realization. Fresh- man teas were given for the incoming girls in order that they might feel a little more a part of the school. Perhaps the most successful venture was the Mothers' and Fathers' Spread for the girls' parents. The special feature of the club was a weekly discussion of some topic in which girls are interested. The ofhcers for the year were Daisy Schulz, president 3 Margaret Waters, vice-presidentg Eleanor King, secretary, Delores Vestal, treasurer. HIS year the Junior Drama League has presented, at regular meetings, seven short plays or scenes: a Christmas play, Pilgrim scenes, Fourteen, A Gentle Jury, Six Cups of Chocolate fdirected by Helen Bedelll, The Medal Cdirected by Clemen- tine Pharesl, scenes from The Revolt of Mother dramatized by Hale Shanebergerl.
