Those front steps have become the accustomed and well-loved lounge of the school. And, though it may seem impossible now, some of us are certain to find something memorable about viewing and labeling the entrails of that big bull frog that had been kept in alcohol by the seven biology classes before us. You can,t help but remember with no little enjoyment how you fooled the whole fac- ulty when you slipped away from the Senior Dance with half the decorations. And the Senior Play! Fritz Leiber's and Robert Mantell's greatest work on the stage won't be able to knock the memory of your own class play from its due place. The gym, of course, furnished you with enjoyment and torture that have combined to cause just a little emotional twist as you look back on that freshman and sophomore gym class experience. Maybe you are one of the ones usnaggedu by the faculty advisers to clear the cafeteria floor for the tea dance the next period. Wonit those five or ten min- utes you took oif after the work was done to dance or play the piano or talk, stand out prominently in your memory when South Side has been left behind? Can you possibly forget your assignment to the eighth period session that spoiled all those hopes for The picture on the left shows one of the Friday afternoon tea dances: the other a snapshot of the study hall. Side High a four-year school career without an after-school blemish on an otherwise spotless record? For some of us, the thought of walking along a hall, no hall in particular, so long as we were shut in by the walls of South Side, causes us to recall other school happen- ings worth remembering. And don't you remember how you used to think the long road to successv the faculty used to talk about was the aisle down the study hall leading to the en- trance of the girls' locker room? Perhaps one of the little, more insignificant things that will be predominant in your memories of South Side will be Dorothy's telling you to hurry up with that final payment on the cap and gown or the invita- tions. Or maybe you can remember waiting for twenty minutes or so for Dorothy to grant final per- mission for you to get that interview with Mr. Snider. Speaking of the school in general, what are some of the changes and improvements the graduates of 1934 have seen made in South Side during their four- year stay here? In the first place, we entered this building in the fall of 1930 with a terror of ninth periods-not eighths. The inauguration of the idea of supervised study in South Side this year has lengthened the periods, now fifty-five minutes long instead of forty- five, as they were during our freshman days.

THE TOTEM Utopian Daze By BYRON SPIEGEL The facts and figures aren't quite clear, but, as I remember it, I woke up all of a sudden in a strange room. Ar first, I just lay there and looked around me. The room had neither walls nor ceiling, but, in- stead, seemed to be half a hollow sphere placed on a black plane. The light that illuminated the room was coming from behind this shell. As I raised myself, I noticed that the bed on which I lay was one of those types that had a mattress which sank a foot and springs which sank a foot. Not only were my two feet sunk, but my hands, arms, head, and body were sunk also. I was sunk, or had a sinking spell without the aid of a sinking fund. About that time I had a feeling that someone else was in the room. You know, that feeling that makes you want to turn around. Upon looking around, I saw a very graceful fshe was the three graces in onej and charming young lady coming toward me. I-Ier smile was so disarming that she would be an ideal represen- tative at a peace conference. As she was all decked out in white, I imagined myself in a hospital or a factory where cigars are made that are not touched by human handsf, Thinking I was in the former place, I began to feel myself and was greatly relieved to find myself in one piece. She, however, informed me fshe must have been a mind reader, that I was in a clinic. She no sooner had spoken than two bearded and bespectacled old men entered. They were dressed very strangely. As a matter of fact, they might have been wearing Russian pajamas, like the pretty red ones I once had. These suits, or whatever you call them, were skin tight, just like something that's streamlined. They both chuckled as I eyed them, and finally one, who because his mental superiority had evidently stepped off the comic page, came and sat on a bench by my bed. After a few moments of reliection, during which time he looked like a monkey in a,zoo or a high school pupil, he applied something to my chest that looked like a stethoscope and told me to stop admiring the young lady, as the sound of my heart was breaking his ear drums. So at his incessant requests, my fancies turned from thoughts of love. He then started to make a thorough examination of my poor frame. Ar this point even I would have and did become inquisitive and ask for an explanation. To begin with he introduced himself as Doctor Arian. As I was about to tell him who I was, he mentioned my name. This, of course, astonished meg but he had gone on and introduced his friend, whose name I have forgot- ten, and my nurse, Aglia. I-Ie then stated that the date was June l, 2934. At this, I let out a groan that must have shaken the surrounding seven counties, and passed off into another sleep. Upon being revived, I asked where I was. Doc Arian's smiling countenance went to a superlative cle- gree as he said one word, Utopia. I-Ie stated that I could inspect the country as soon as I regained strength. I-le added that during my thousand years' sleep, everything had been discovered and put to practical use. I-Ie said this might shock me, and it was as if electricity had been passed through meg but he reassured me I would get used to it. He mentioned that he would personally show me around, but I de- clined, saying that his time was undoubtedly precious and perhaps the fair young lady would act as my guide. I-le smiled and said it was to be as I desired it. For the next few days I did nothing but Cat my carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, which were put up in the form of crackers, wafers, and capsules. On the day I was preparing to sally forth on my tour of inspection, the doctor came in and told me I would see a number of people I had known, as a large number of people had been overcome by gas in the conscious- twentieth century and had just recovered ness that year. At this I took great delight, and Aglia and I stepped out of the house into the transporta- tion belt. We hadn't gone very far 'till I saw a person with the most gosh-awful frown. As he passed us, it came to me that he must be a cartoonist I once knewl. Upon reaching home, I turned on the television radio and was just in time to see a preacher and hear him say, I pronounce you man and wife. As I looked closer, I was able to recognize the face and frame of a brick-topped friend? of mine that fell for a poetical valedictorian. And upon taking a second look I discovered that the girl by his side was the poetical valedictorian.3 That evening I asked Aglia a number of questions. The first was about the existing government. To that she replied that the people were so perfect that there was no need for govrnment. Next, I asked what was happening in the held of arts and literature. After a moment she said that because there were no more original plots, there hadn't been a book written in the last century. As for the arts, that field was also worked out. I then asked how men spent their time. She said that during the first thirty years of their lives, men got their education and training. Then they worked from two to three years. For the remaining hundred hfty years, they just read andreread volumes of other centuries. One of the greatest works, he told, was a great American novel written by Herman O. Makey. 112 THE TOTEM About that time Dr. Arian came in and asked me if I would care to witness a boy's education. After giving an affirmative answer, I went with the Doc to his lab. There he stuck a bunch of tubes into the youngster and turned on the valves. After about five minutes, he turned off the valves and removed the tubes. He then gave the boy a ream of paper and a book of questions. The results were so startling to me that I knew that the excuse about being absent the morning brains were handed out was no longer good. Hence I submitted to a bit of education, which, I may adcl, was a pleasure for the first time. The next day I went out again and saw many of me ole fransf, There was that little guy known as Twelve Dozen. 4 There was a lanky guy5 wearing a tam and carrying a book published in 1934. Of course, I met a lot of old girl friends, and was sur- prised that the long sleep had worked no miracles in the line of beauty. But I donit mean to imply that these girls needed a beauty sleep. Oh, no. Why I can remember the days when a beauty operator could take ten years off their mothers' ages, five years off their own ages, and add fifteen years to their fathers' ages by making them worry about paying the bills. But as I was saying before I was so rudely inter- upted, I saw some girl friends. And who would you rather like to meet than two girls that remind you of Miss Alcottis book, Little Women. 'l One of the little girls has hair that has an affinity for dye. Not knowing the other very well, I should say that she is just a sweet little thing. As I was reaching for a shot of Will Roger fgum, you lugj a girl known as i'Shanghai Li1 7 ups and asks me for a stick. I just had time to get my pen out of sight when she asked for it. She always was funny that way. Now I am going to give you three guesses, whom do you think I saw next? I'll give you a little hint, he didn't have a Roman nose, or Nordic either. Ar the time I saw him he was applying a bit of high-pressure salesmanship to a man that he had cornered. If I remember correctly, he was trying to sell some furni- ture. Now I am not sure, but I think that his name was Aloysius.S Really, that name is as bad as Eppim- mennides, the name which was given to that curly headed kid that aspired to be a diplomatf' I was really surprised to see the next two people, and I wasn't sure till I moved closer and heard their conversation. One hears sometimes that the church does not care for society, she said, and then one hears that it does. 1 0 Q'Yes, oh, yes, he replied.11 Now I really thought that was too clever for words, just think fyou do it, I get paid for thinkingl they had remembered those lines from the Senior Play. As I strolled along the avenue I saw a dignified gentleman carrying a brief case with a business-like 113 manner. This rather shocked me as I never before knew that I was twins. fEditor's note: These last few lines should have been deleted. These authors are awfully conceited people. Author's reply: May I be so bold as to call myself a humorist. And in answer to the above charge state that we whose hair grows white in service must look after our own publicity., Surely after a heated argument with a publisher not even an uninterested reader would mind going out to the sea shore. Mind it or not, that's where I went. There I indulged in drinking in the view and a few gallons of water. While I didn't exactly pay any atten- tion to the bathers, I might state that the apparel was no less shocking than that of 1934. fSeek the faint bit of pun in the above., After the bit of communion with Neptune a great feast would have been wonderful but poor me had to sit down to the customary crackers, capsules, and wafers. Ah, sweet were the memories of those potlucks. Even a big picnic, ants included, was swell. Yes, no matter what people say, I still believe that a big meal is just it, but then one must live and learn. One thing that it took me this long period to learn, or to think up, was a statement to justify a bad habit, belching. After much effort was expounded and wasted, I finally have a motto: It is better to burp and suffer shame, Than to not burp and suger pain. There is really one thing that I like about Utopia. That was the lack of need for a regulated day. One could sleep, eat, drink, and be merry or get married any time of the day or night. Business places in Utopia could be compared to the open day and night gas stations of the twentieth century. Going home that evening I heard someone chant, Did hie me up from my tick, etc.',13 Then someone shouted, Mr. Wilson, there's get- ting to be a little fall in the airfiw After rounding the corner I heard, I'm not angry with you, but I'm just not happy, that's a1l.,'H I was, by that time, hearing so many hauntingly familiar cries that I ran till I reached home. Once in the house, I began to feel drowsy. I could feel myself dozing off. I shook myself a bit and straightened up. Shortly, I dozed off again, and Aglia started to shake me violently and shout, Wakeup. Wake upf' Finally when I came to, I found myself in the chemistry room with Herbert S. Voorhees shaking the daylights out of me. When I was fully awake, he informed me that I had just slept through an ether demonstration. He added that I might finish my nap during my next class.

THE TOTEM Telling About Us the Verst Way By ROBERTA GARTON There is a young lady named Haven On whose name cards Success is engraven, For we all are aware That she plays fair and square- This young lady, you know, is B. Haven. Our president's name is called Parrish, His puns, we'll admit, are quite fairish But that is not all, For he,s manly and tall- A combination thatls really quite rarish. Pat Beall is well known in South Side For the clubs which she's able to guide, For both Philo and Times Has Pat held the lines- No wonder we claim her with pride. Don Powell is an athletic boy, He's the damsel's delight and great joyg For this handsome young lad The girls all go mad, For a football to him is a toy. A pianist renowned is Miss Glass, And she's really a very fine lass. Sheis loquacious, 'tis true, But perhaps you are, too, And her playing you cannot surpass. Oh! Ernie and Mark are young men Who for motoring have a great yen. Cleopatra they boughtg What a bargain they got! And she sounds, so we've heard, like Big Ben. Eugene is a cartoonist rare Who does all his work with great care. He is in great demand When work is at hand Which requires skill that's more than just fair. There is in our midst a fair maid Who of speaking her mind's not afraid, Miss Garrison places In all speaking races- Good proof that she's made the steep grade South Side is well blessed with red hair, And the Williams twins make it a pair. They're called Bud and Sis, And these two you can,t miss If you search in the halls with great care There is a young lady named Burry Who has all the boys in a flurry. In Charm,' she did well As a sweet small town belle, So this young lady has not a worry. Hugo Winterrowd is a tall lad Quite worthy of setting a fad. He's the best dressed young man In our great southern land. And his dancing is also not bad. Miss Baltzell is an artist, weive heard, But she's also somewhat of a bird, For that big airplane man fWhose name's Don and not Dani Rates with her both first, second, and third There is in our midst a John Brown Who can be either sad or a clown. When as Joe Pond he played, Quite a big hit he made- The roof, in fact, almost came down. As we've mentioned before on this page, Red hair in South Side's quite a rage Social Science president- Mr. Farries, we meant- Is blessed with an auburn-framed image. Tom Kaplan of stars is quite fond- Though not those that reflect in a pond- With the scrawl of Mae West Is the gentleman blessed- We don't doubt that itls placed under bond. A singer is Lane Breidenstein, And he also hands a good line. I-Ie gets around Quite a lot With this line that he's got, And his manners to teachers are fine. Therels a maiden whois known as Elaine Who takes in the big Totem gain, She's a popular missg And fwe,re whispering thisj Shels intelligent, and yet she's not plain. Dan Zehr is a swimmer of fame And the damsels you really can't blame When for him they fall, For he's big and he's tall With an athlete,s powerful frame. Frances and Chet, that great pair, For the rest of the world do not care Together they go In sunshine or snow- To them all weather is fair. Elinor Sieber is known In this great Southerly zone For her vigor and pep And for keeping in step When others drop out with a groan. An athletic lad is Bob Bligh, For whom the maidens all sigh, When his ankle he broke, All the feminine folk Stood watching anxiously by. The Times Manager known as D. B Believes in a world fair and free. His Utopian daze Would set the world all ablaze If 'twere broadcast o'er land and o'er sea. 115 THE TOTEM That gay city slicker, Paul Deal, 'When a niaidfcpmes around starts to reel They affect him. you see, With a great ecstacy That rings in his ears like a peal. Howard Smith is a speaker renowned In whose words true wisdom is found. He is known far and wide, For his talks in South Side Make opponents, orations rebound. For Miss Schwartz, a diminutive lass, All Young gentlemen turn out en masse. Vfirh her curly dark hair And her smile sweet and fair She is able to do more than pass: A songster of fame is Ruth Anng She's not only willing but can. She delights with her song All who happen along, For on music she places no ban. Marie is a well known South Sider Than whom no oneis fame travels wider. Though she looks very weak, She knows well how to speak, But this last, you know's, bona fider. A young man of promise, John Dern, Great classical volumes won't spurn. He studies away While other studies play, And he not only can, but will learn. Edith Spangle's a girl in South Side To whom we can point with great pride. Her scholarship's line- A remarkable sign That in Fame's Hall she'll reside, Martha Suter's a woman of sports Who each day at some new game cavorts. She has copious wealth In radiant health And a store of witty retorts. Top to bottom: Dorothy Alderdice, secretary to the principal, holds forth in the outer office. Yes, the smile is natural! Hands off, my young man! These enticing pies were baked by our home economics department. viii Out, damned spot! This Macbethian cry is heard at the end of each period down in the manual training department when the boys rush for the wash stands. The circus came to South Side last fall, Pink lemonade, pop corn, and peanuts gave evidences of some second childhoodsf' or two to recall the days of no home rooms, but rather of a lengthened fm first period during which the bul- letin falso deceased, was read. This term has proved more val- uable from an educational stand- point than previous ones, what with more and more personal guidance of faculty members in the classroom. A We have been enabled this year to get a start on the next day's lesson X right in the classroom where we could inquire about anything vague in the assignment. The year of our graduation has seen the dawn of an era of home ' ' rooms, of classroom secretaries to post extra-curricular activities for the week on the front blackboard. Is it taxing your memories to too great a degree to ask if you remember the days before the covered bulletin board in the front hall? Before the club bulletin board at the west entrance of the school? Before the shrubbery and birches were planted on the school grounds? Before the little illuminated announcement box, also in the west hall? Before the green and white stripes were painted on the rails in the gym? And hereis another real test. Have you yet forgotten the days when absent pupils formed their line in the study hall at Miss Chapinis desk rather than at Virginia's new X office upstairs? Do you remember when the Travel Club met in Miss Thorne's room? When there was no Voorhees Room? When the Menefee marker was placed in the north lawn? When the Inter-club Congress was formed? When the Lettermen's Club staged their first clean-up drive? When The Times published its Tenth Anniversary and New Deal Issues? When Mary Jane Scott tore the heel off her am- , ,.... ,,...--'- ' lx THE TOTEM TEV' 'Aim QV' A ood club is that club which does as its name I sg implies.

The trophy case, as here pic- tured, holds a few of the cups that the annual has won. For the purpose of showing more clearly the value of a Totem, Roberta Garton wrote some verses, which were illustrated by Eugene Craig. These car- toons also were in the cabinet at the time the picture was taken. The Speakers' Bureau is an organization that adver- tises by speeches and talks certain school entertain- ments and projects. They are under the direction of Miss Benner and are affiliated with her department. Those in the picture are, back row: Wilson, Smith, Shea, Perrine, Rothberg, Shannen, Shearer, Klopfen- stein, Montgoinery, and Schlieg front row: Cupp, Suter, Dygert, Schwartz, Murphy, Kincade, and Butler.

I The class of 1934 has as much, if not more, to loolc back on than any previous graduating class of South Side. We entered the school knowing only one place for holding club meetings4the Greeley Room-in memory of one of the school's best-loved faculty members. During our stay here we have seen a living memorial to a member of our own faculty who is destined to live on and on in the hearts of everyone connected with the school, the city, and particular branches of state edu- cation-Herbert S. Voorhees, distinguished as one of the f most capable and lovable figures in his class anywhere in the country. The spirit of Mr. Voorhees can not help but travel on with South Side through the material me- dium of what we have dedicated as the Voorhees Room. Senior students of economics have watched the New Deal in the cafeteria dealt congruently with the New Deal of a national nature. This year has seen the cafeteria offered as a practical side of the home economics course, and placed under complete control of the home economics department. When considering a particular recent improvement in the school, the class of '34 experiences a surge of genuine J Vpride. Though it's a little difficult for underclassmen, still seniors can remember the days when magazine 4 campaigns for raising band uniform , funds weren't something to be so completely ignored as has been the - case this year. Departing 1ZA's have been among the most instru- 4 mental in transforming the school's musicians from an Alexander Rag- Clad Bandw into a snappy-looking, first-class high school band that hides itself in shame no longer. 4 v i 1 ' ,www From top to bottom: Recognition Day has become an annual affair at On this occasion students are honored for their outstanding South Side. work during the entire school year. The chemistry lab smells like-burning sulphur. Here is a group of students who posed for the pictureg that is, they started to work. One day the photographer was in an elevated mood. So he took this picture of- the locker room. This is Virginia Montgomery, attendance clerkg and this is thewway she appears to us on certain mornings. Whatl no excuse from home? gigs? G South Sideis seventy-piece band has been busy a great deal of the time, thanks to Jack Wainwright. But they managed to Find time to have their picture taken. A typical winter scene at South Side. The only sign of human life is the automobile! And that,s frozen. Mr. Murphy with his sixvmonth-old baby-the set-up of the N. R. A. The most unfrequented spot in school is the boiler room, herein depicted. The class of ,34 has seen the welcome arrival of Mr. Jack Wainwright as music director in the school. Could a more complete change for the better be asked? Mr. Wainwright has succeeded in moulding a musical aggregation that has merited superlative recognition at the hands of every visitor to the school during the past two semesters. Our remem- brance of the band our first three years in high school has probably been completely obliterated, as far as the future is concerned, by the striking success scored by Mr. Wainwright. Time still marches on! Our high school career has seen the organization of many new clubs. The Deutscher Verein has only recently taken up its duties of aiding German stu- dents in speech and composition, and the knowledge of the characteristics and customs of the German people. Le Cercle Francais has done the same for the French stu- dents. Capable outside speakers have helped to throw a better light on the various phases of the French course of study, and members of the club have better enjoyed and learned more from the classroom as a result. Which of the older extra-curricular organizations in South Side has offered more romance, more adventure, more prac- tical enjoyment than the new Philatelic Society? And what more outstanding project of any department than that club's cachet acknowledging the tenth anniversary of the school? 3 In these few years, we have seen the organization of boys' and girls' rifle clubs and the school's resultant acquisition of a county championship. We have seen a new deal for younger members of the school in the organization of the Junior Mathematics Club and the Intramural Lettermenls Club. We have seen South Side's rising to a level of the other high schools as regards a Latin clubg for the Societas Romana is another uchildn of the school in the eyes of the class of 1934. Even the now-popular Kodak Klan and l.h'IOd.Cl Airplane Clubs were unknown when present seniors entered South Side. Among some of the little nooks and crannies around school that are likely to stick somewhere in a nook or cranny of our minds are the door leading up to the roofg the little rooms on the gym Hoor level located back in the athletic department roomsg the so-called elevator shaftsg the Booster Club room fknown only to a few Beginning typing students keep time with music. We bet this boy is typing to the tune of Kitten on the Keys. This girl is a member of Miss Rehorst's sewing class. Bending to a straight line. This is a familiar scene in Mr. Chappell's drawing classes. A typical noon-day scene on the veranda of the Alma Mater. Did you know that a street car had just passed before the picture was taken. XVell, it had. See the tracks! pupils, howeverjg the half-pint Totem office, the Booster room at the south end of the gym, where the cokes are served at all basketball gamesg Mr. Murphyis dug-out, where his famed stencils are cut, the laundry room located in the northeast part of the building, and you might even put Miss Pittenger's den in that class. It may have seemed a little out of place at the time, but can you help recalling with a little smile and chuckle the time the Totem photographer came into your home economics class and someone else snapped the picture just as he reached for a big uhunkn of lemon cream pie? Can you remember the expressions on the faces of the boys in the washroom when they saw you wash that thick mess of pie off your hands? Or perhaps you will delight in recalling certain phases of the indoor circus that paid the school a visit. Street shoes, you know, were detrimental to the gym floor, so they brought in ten or twenty horses for a little show. Remember when you watched las a juniorl the com- mencement exercises of the class of 33? Remember how you never could get that canary yellow precipi- tate with a lead salt in the chemistry lab? Remem- ber when the Totem photographer climbed way to the top of a row of lockers just to take a little pic- ture of a bunch of freshmen trying to open their new combination locks? Can you recall the nrst time the band ever as- sumed its now-common position in the corner of the gym Hoot? Remember how the school lawn and grounds looked under a blanket of snow? Can you economics students ever forget Pat Murphy's chart of the N. R. Afs relationship to the federal govern- ment? And did you ever take a trip through any portion of the boiler room in search of that secret passage that allowed its voyagers to gain free mp., ...hi Herbert Voorhees entrance to all the dances ofthe school year? Remember the time, or we should say times, you pecked out sample sheets for typing classes without ever even thinking of the touch system? Can,t you recall the times Mr. Voorhees took a day off from the ordinary routine of teaching a chemistry class to read a little Anglo-Saxon? You surely remem- ber Miss Shoup's funny facial ex- pressions when she doubted that Emma Shoup THE TOTEM alibi about why and how you forgot to pay your library fine! And Mr. I-lullis short wave radio that picked up all the static in both hemispheres, can you forget that? There may be nothing in any single one of the things we have mentioned here meriting particular remembrance, yet we feel that this is the sort of thing that goes together to make up what we later think of as school. Are not your remem- brances of very early childhood something of that kind? Can,t you remember doing something at the age of perhaps six years as inconse- quential as sitting on a rock at the corner of a street, the name and lo- cation of which have completely slipped your mind? High school, of course, is just another form of life. You can't put your finger on the very thing responsible for the great lessons of this world, but there can be no ticular school career, whether you wish to remember in particular your curricular or extra-curricular activ- ity in the school, it is the hope of the publications department that this collection of illustrations and summaries of your own school ex- perience will sufiice to maintain the bond that should always bind the -pupil to his alma mater. The Totem hopes to picture ma- terially the conditions and surround- ings attending your own particular high school career as nothing else can do quite so exactly. Your own high school life is certain to prove different in nearly every respect from that of the seniors-to-be. Your Totem wvouldn't be much of a re- minder of the good ol' days if it didn,t include in its makeup an am- ple gallery of the little things in lifef' Nor would an annual of some question but what the great field of experience has been responsible for those lessons. Louie Hull Whatever be the reasons for the love we have for our only high school, whatever may have been the outstanding events of your own par- I 1 Q . E H. -T A lathe class school other than South Side serve in any manner to saturate perma- nently your memory with images of the old Archer hangoutf, An an- nual must contain pictures that will serve as stepping stones from your future positions back to actual ex- periences and places in the alma mater. It is for this reason that we ex- pect the Totem of '34 to find its place always in your life. We have every reason in the world to believe 12 J. H. Chappell that the Totem of '37 or ,38 will carry for the first time pictures of South Side's auditorium, pictures of its several new second-story class- rooms, scenes of the first South Side senior play produced on the school's own stage, the first minstrel shows and operettas given in the school's own theatre, and first references made to South Side's growing up -from a one-story building to a two-story one. Of course such school improve- ments will prove valuable. They have already proved necessary. But they haven't composed the South Side of 1934. They have formed no part of the South Side we have known during our four years here. In our case, the handicaps of yes- terday form the romance and mem- ory of tomorrow. There's somewhat of a thrill in remembering the hours of cussing and discussing, toiling and boiling, irking and working con- nected with making a stage out of a grade school gym floor-all for the success of the senior play. If Archer dramatics enthusiasts during the past ten or twelve years hadn't been sat- isfied that the play was the thing, there probably would have been no senior plays, Student Players plays, or music department productions, for as far as practical dramatics equipment is concerned, the school has been and still is nil. 13 TI-IE TOTEM Maybe you sat in one of those lit- tle portable chairs riveted onto a plank in an over-crowded classroom. Maybe you were in partnership in the locker room and had a locker buddyv during the days of over- crowded school conditions. That was the romantic side of our school of '30 to ,34-not the school of to- morrow, to be sure, but rather the school as we have known it, OUR OWN school. We've been told there's beauty in everything, and even in the class- rooms there have been events worth remembering. Surely you've been in at least one classroom which one of the mongrel members of the ca- l A power saw tx -Us Q W 1 A .. .1 .., f nine world has at some time or other mistaken for a kennel! We've all seen our classmates presented with the emblem of the National Honor Society in some classroom or other, and haven't you had some teacher during your stay here who has crashed throughi' with a little party or picnic just before vacation? The knowledge we have gained through our curricular training we will regard as collective, not as a series of unconnected and outstand- ing events. We might even think of ourselves as creatures like Pasteur's little yeasts, and consider the school as the place of our swarming, a quan- tity of mere, ordinary wine that mel- lows and enrichens itself with age. We yeasts,', through our fermenta- tions, have mellowed the school's appearance by planting shrubbery and trees, digging dandelions, and improving the school's appearance in other ways. At the same time the school, like a cask of good old port, has refreshed and repaid us for ev- ery service we have rendered. Maintain the standards South Side has attempted to set up for you, class of '34l Let no success you may gain in later life let you get too far out of touch with the school that has laid the foundation for your acad- emic training. It is our genuine hope that the Totemis illustrated resume of all that has gone to compose the fun and training of your high school life will permanently seal the bond between student and school. It has been fun-it has been a real experi- ence-it has been worth while. Sure- ly, it is worth remembering! , ..,.

Clayton, who has participated in Latin Club and Math-Science as well as rating all the boxing and wrestling teams. Great health to you, Clayton. Lohse and Smith, the inseparable pair. Paul has been outstanding in basketball, having served on the varsity and tournament teams. John Bremer in one of his characteristic poses. John has been copy editor of The Times, a member of 1500 ranks, and has retained his place on the honor rolls each semester, which fact helps to account for the reason that his home room carries home the bacon each time. Bob Blomker takes time out to look at the birdie in this picture. Math-Science claims the lad as secre- tary. Besides writing themes which give him free trips to Chicago, Bob also makes the honor roll and favors Latin Club with his presence. Officers of the junior class were caught as they worked fappears like loafing to mej on the unusual Spanish Fiesta.

Far-fetched, fair, Fathauer, the girl who will not study, is seen here. Dorothy is vice-president of Philo and a member of The Times staff. She has maintained an A-l- average throughout all three years, and she promises to hold her crown during her senior year. Wayne Bart, vice-president of the Junior class, was a definite factor in promoting the success of the Promenade of this year. Ursula Morton, besides being a past president of , as Dorothy Fathauer, Wayne Bart, Ursula Morton, Anna Brumbaugh U. S. A., attends So-Si-Y, Math-Science, and plays good basketball. She has held the positions of news editor, copy editor, circulation manager, and manag- ing editor on The Times. The Sunday Forums have also been favored by her leadership. Annie doesn't sit there any more, but you will find her in The Times Room or on the hockey field. Anna Brumbaugh has served as co-auditor on The Times and has been a faithful member of G. A.

The Class of 193 5 By RACHEL MAGLEY The class of 1935 has evidently found Bill Dulin to be a very capable leader, as he has served as president of his class for the past three years. Assisting Bill with the executivekiuties of the class are Wayne Bart, vice-president, Bob Nelson, secretary, and Max Tritch, William Hockett, and Eleanor Cupp, social council. Miss Hazel Miller and Mr. Lloyd Whelan are the class advisers. On May 4 the annual Junior Promenade and Banquet were held. Since a Spanish Fiesta was the theme of the affair, the cafeteria was decorated in true buccaneer style. Bottles of various shapes and sizes were used for candle holdersg and vases, globes, and model galleons were used on the tables. The favors were small paper par- rots, treasure chests, and logs. Bill Dulin was toastmaster and led the guests on a supposed cruise. Talks were given by Mr. Abbett, Mr. Snider, Miss Pittenger, Bob Klopfenstein, and Margaret Murphy. Other features of the program were an Argentine tango by Evelyn Hockensmith, Sybil Knudson, Peggy Kilpatrick, Maxine Manock, Doris Wolford, Forrestine Val- entine, Delores Keever, and Mary Ellen Martin, a Spanish song by Betty Medaris, and a stunt by Rex Knorr and Ralph Jones. Eleanor Cupp was chairman of the entertainment committee. In the gymnasium, the out-of-doors atmosphere was created by a huge false ceiling with silver stars played upon by four blue flood- lights. Thirty-six panels of Spanish galleons, pirate maps, and buc- caneers, ogether with a number of anchors and compasses, were fastenedon lattices around the sides of the gymnasium. A deserted island, with a running Fountain of Youth and a live parrot, was improvised at one end of the gymnasium. Carl Brenner's orchestra, situated among palms, furnished music for dancing. Lois Magley and Edythe Thornton were co-chairmen of the decor- ations committee and were aided by Alice Hulse, Virginia Beck, Betty Erick, Goldie Bruoit, Dorothea Nance, Pauline Crabill, Ursula Morton, Dorothy Canada, Betty Medaris, Emily Gardner, Jean Kranz, Betty Dickmeyer, Helen Sinish, Harriet Storm, Berneta Mc- , 18 First Row: Maxine Borchert, Ruth Bormuth, Harriet Basford, Claudia Bowlby.

Bill Hockett served as publicity chairman, and Max Tritch had charge of the sale of' tickets. Both the banquet and prom were very well attended. Certain members of the junior class have made very admirable records thus far in South Side. These particularly outstanding schol- lars are Ellis Lochner, Dorothy Fathauer, Robert Blomker, Alma Nitzsche, and Duncan McLeish.

A different home room has received the junior scholarship plaque each of the three times it has been awarded since the inauguration of the present plan last fall. Miss Mary McCloskey,s home room won the plaque the first time it was awarded. The members' of that home room are Jack Beemer, Wayne Bender, Eugene Berg, Adrian Bevington, Albert Bidelot, Helen Blanks, Madelyn Blauvelt, Donald Bleke, Wilina Bleke, Robert Blomker, Melvin Blume, Arthur Boerger, Donald Bohl, Bruce Bolinger, Robert Boussum, Claudia Bowlby, Albert Brand, Aileen Branning, Fred Bredemeyer, John Bremer, Donald Brett, Eugene Briegel, Jane Louise Brinkman, Robert Brod- rick, Elizabeth Brothers, Wayne Brown, Lavera Broxen, Ada Broyles, and Anna Brumbaugh.

Miss Eleanor Smeltzley's home room took the plaque from Miss Mellen's room at mid-semester. Those students in Miss Smeltzleyis room are Frank Montgomery, Kathleen Moore, Robert Moore, Eloise Morrell, Robert Morris, Williatn Moses, Eleanora Moten, Paul Muel- ler, Margaret Murphy, Manyard Murphy, Dorothea Nance, Robert Nelson, Lois Nessell, Mary Louise Newman, Alma Nitzsche, Virginia Noble, Leo Nolan, Richard North, Howard Oliver, Woodrow Ormis- ton, George Orr, Mary Osborn, Kathryn Pape, Harold Parr, Har- riett Pelton, Van Perrine, Robert Moody, Tessabelle Niebel, James Moore, Hugh Scott, Robert Schweizer, and Isabelle Screeton. Wforking on The Times staff is a very interesting way in which several juniors spend much of their leisure time. Those juniors most active in publications are Ursula Morton, Wayne Bender, Lloyd Grodrian, John Bremer, Charlene Davis, Edythe Thornton, Sam Rea, Bill Hockett, Martha Baumgartner, and Margie Killen. The study of dramatics and the desire to become a Student Player attracted many members of the class of 1935 to the drama classes of Miss Marjorie Suter. This work is elective and no grades or credits are given for it. Edythe Thornton, Shirley Sykes, Berneta McIntosh, Lois Magley, Betty Erick, Jean Kranz, Alma Nitzsche, Ursula Mor- ton, Harriett Storm, Margaret Murphy, Arline Close, Violet Witt- mer, Geraldine Henline, Nick Cozma, Robert Blomker, Richard Schannen, Sam Schaaf, Bob Klopfenstein, and Rex Knorr are among the students taking this training in dramatic technique. Coach Lundy Welborn and Coach Jake McClure depend on the juniors for a great part of their material from which they build the varsity football, basketball, and track teams. This year many junior boys were mainstays on the teams. Ed Ginn, outstanding in both foot- ball and basketball, was awarded the King Trophy for this year. The trophy is awarded annually to the basketball player who displays the best sportsmanship and mental attitude during the entire season. Membership in the National Honorary Athletic Society has been conferred upon five members of this class. The boys who received this high honor are Brouwer George, Robert Nelson, Harrisan Simon, Gordon Straley, and Ed Ginn. However, a number of other junior boys have done very commendable work in varsity athletics. They are Paul Lohse, Bob Symonds, Howard fHootyj Hall, James Hilge- man, Bob Willson, Bill Geyer, Bob Lohman, Bruce Bolinger, Dar- 2 1 V I,..,u. . i , l S j sf , 3 ., i jj G , 3 1 'Q 4 7 H i C ,- , ,.,.

Public speaking attracted a large number of junior students. The extemporaneous contest last fall was won by Bob Klopfenstein. Mar- garet Murphy, Richard Schannen, Bill Hockett, Anna Brumbaugh, Wayne Bart, and Vincent Langston have also made good records as public speakers. After a year that has been as successful as this one has been, a bright future is predicted for the class of 1935.

The Class of 1936 By ALICE BURRY This year South Side is indeed blessed with an outstanding sopho- more class. .lts members displayed their good judgment in many ways, one of which was their selection of class officers. Who is there more competent than Clifford Schroin to guide, as president, the sophomores through an interesting and happy year? Fred Nye as vice-president, Dorothy Crabill as secretary, and Marjorie Cartwright, Bernadette Dygert, and Robert Adams comprising the social council, contributed their share of ideas and work. Of course, this class can be outdone in intelligence only by the juniors and seniors, and then only by a slight margin. Never let it be said that any green freshman could eclipse these sophs!

A. girls who have done exceptionally fine worlc are Jeanette Braun, Nlarjorie Cartwright, Virginia Gardner, Velma Yoder, Marjorie Hower, Celeste Klenke, Jane Loomis, Donna Lyman, Vera Mosel, Winifred Porter, Doris Rinclchen, and Betty Rison. Journalism also talces its share in their school life.

This year, with the help of their beloved advisers, Miss Pauline Van Gorder and Mr. A. Verne Flint, they decided to have a Kid Frolicf' It was held May ll and the dignified sophomores resorted to childhood games for one delightful evening.

The Class of 1937 B y ROBERTA GARTON Upon the students of todayls generation depend the prosperity and happiness of the world of tomorrow, for it is this group of hopefuls who will take over the reigns of government in the course of a very few years and direct the people of our country along the straight and narrow path to financial and personal success or down the primrose path that leads to the broad gate of destruction and chaos. The industrious members of the class of 1937 evidently realize the heavy responsibility which will lie upon their shoulders as citizens, voters, and business men of the United States in the very near future, for, in spite of the fact that the members of the freshman class no longer have officers to guide them through their first and hardest year as high school students, a surprisingly large number of these yearlings-have taken it upon themselves to apply their eH:orts vig- Z5 ii. tl K ,i v iii jf.. ut ii 'ri ... .

In the first place, twenty-seven of the more ambitious future citi- zens of the United States from the class of 1937 have displayed their high aims and ideals and their intention of becoming worthy mem- bers of the student body of South Side by starting out on the course of their high school career with grades which reach the excellent aver- age of ninety percent or over, thus qualifying them for the first-year honor roll. Those people who have succeeded by virtue of assiduous labor and studious habits in acquiring the coveted and well-deserved honor are Marion Bailey, Billie Bichacoff, Wilson Byer, Ina Claire Chappell, Dorothy Clancy, Virginia Fathauer, Ruth Gerber, Louise Gerding, Reginald Gerig, Ruth Geoglein, Constance Haag, June Haeger, John Hines, Mildred Keil, Stella Kelak, Joan Kennedy, Clara Jane McElwain, Leona Menze, Betty Muntzinger, Grace Nel- son, Willard Ridenour, William Roy, Louis Squires, John Staley, Charles Thorne, Elinor White, and Kathleen Wittmer. There is also among these freshmen a group of outstanding stu- dents who have proved their undeniable scholastic ability by receiving the honor placque for the highest freshman scholarship average three times in succession. These students who are members of Miss George Ann Hodgson's home room 80 have maintained an average of 5.6434 in scholarship throughout the year in order to keep the honor placque in their possession. Those freshmen who have co-operated in the winning of this supreme honor by the contribution of con- sistently high grades to the cause are Richard McBride, Eileen Ment- zer, John Miller, William Mitchell, Harold lVlyers, Alice Nelson, Dorothy Newell, Nadine Noe, Hazel Noll, Robert Peterson, Richard Rastetter, Rhoda Rea, Betty Rose, Margaret Jane Ruhl, Margery Jane Ruhl, Herman Rutkowski, Lois Ryan, William Schafer, Lorene Schan- nen, William Scott, Della Ruth Seigel, Francile Shepler, Iona Shuler, Don Sinish, Jean Snyder, Bernice Springer, Marjorie Persing, and Dorothy Tobianski. Although there is not, as a general rule, a very large number of freshmen who enter actively into the extra-curricular organizations and activities of South Side, nevertheless, the members of the class of 1937 have proved to be an exception to the general rule in that we find an unusually large number of them Hitting about the halls after school hours are over and participating with zestful and zealous vim V Z6 First Row: Fisher Rehrer, Waneta Richardson, Don Reichert, Doris Rindchen.

Active participation in sports perhaps ranks first among these many outside interests, for we discover that forty-one boys and one hundred seven girls out of the freshman class have taken part throughout the past year in some of the many sports which are open to them. For the boys, intramural sports include tag football, cross country running, and bowling in the fall season, basketball, volleyball, hand- ball, wrestling, and boxing during the winter, and, though a young man's fancy may lightly turn to thoughts of love in spring, the intra- mural sportsmen's fancy turns seriously to pleasant and intriguing thoughts of playground ball and horse shoe. The boys who have entered into the intramural sports for freshmen during the past year includes Earl Anderson, Donald Armstrong, Charles Baney, Carl Banks, Henry Brandt, Robert Budde, Edward Cremer, Ralph Colicho, William Cook, William Crick, Claude Davies, Richard Dent, Harry Ertel, Robert Feichter, Philip Greeley, Glenn Gregory, Louis Hoch- stettler, Howard Hirschman, Ned Hensley, Elmer Hollenberg, Rich- ard Kaiser, Hubert Klopfenstein, Roger Larman, Robert Lehman, Je- rome Miller, Carlton Mock, Richard Nelson, Victor Nussbaum, William Ostermeyer, Robert Pequignot, Donald Reichart, David Roth, Doyle Springer, Harold Schmidt, Donald Smith, Richard Snook, Lewis Squires, Donald Steinbauer, Wayne Walraven, and Jerry Zehr. The sports which lead the girls on to conquer bigger and better worlds in the fall season are tennis, speedball, and hockey, during the winter, they turn their interested attention to volleyball and bas- ketball, and, in the spring, swimming, track, hiking, baseball, skating, and tumbling make urgent demands upon the leisure time of all the athletically inclined daughters of Eve. Those freshman girls who have entered vigorously into the realms of athletics during the year include Preceda Affolder, Dorothy Ald- ridge, Betty Allerton, Marceille Bandtel, Phyllis Barrows, Anna Marie Baumgartner, Ruth Berning, Betty Beyran, Adella Bleich, Jean Boll- man, Jane Brothers, Wilma Brown, Dorothy Buchholz, Helen Clark, Louise Close, Mildred Closs, Mary Catherine Connell, Eleanor Crosby, Jeannette Crum, Gertrude Dannenfeldt, Dorothy DeHaven, Edna Disler. 27 3142 ,.

Special recognition should be awarded to those seventeen freshman girls who garnered a sufficient number of points in sports during their first semester to win their numerals. In order to accomplish this feat, it is necessary for each girl to acquire the sum of at least three hun- dred points, a taslc the completion of which in a single semester, as all feminine sport enthusiasts realize, requires keeping up on their toes constantly. The following is a list of those girls who earned their numerals and the number of points which each has credited to her name: Anna Marie Baumgartner, 465, Mildred Clark, 405, Ruth Eylenberg, 405, Ruth Garrison, 425, Betty Rose Harnish, 316, Lor- raine Heuer, 425, Mildred Hoff, 463, Evelyn Kruse, 425, Helen Kelsey, 468, Winifred Locker, 478, Hazel Noll, 400, Margaret Jane Ruhl, 507, Marjorie Jane Ruhl, 507, Ruth Seigel, 468, Francile Shepled, 325, Iona Schuler, 443, and Pauletta Steinbarger, 436.

Many more of these exceedingly versatile freshmen have found an excellent outlet for their time and energy which is not consumed in preparing the required amount of school work by acquiring a position on either the editorial or the business staff of the Times, an activity which enables the participants to secure a certain number of points for each task correctly and successfully performed, thus giving them an opportunity of also becoming members of the 1500 Club when they have garnered the necessary fifteen hundred points for duties which have been promptly and carefully performed. Those who have taken advantage of this pleasant and profitable manner of spending their leisure time and excess energy by taking a position on the edi- torial branch of the publications staff as reporters, girls' and boys' sports writers, editorial writers, assistant copy editors, proofreaders, feature writers, classroom news reporters, or exchange writers are Don Sinish, Norman Buck, Ruth Garrison, Peggy Kilpatrick, Paulla Gerd- ing, Mary Louise Helms, Ruth Seigel, Dorothy Scheele, Marjorie Glass, Helen Kelsey, Clara Jane McElwain, Mary Jane Wagoner, June Haeger, Ina Claire Chappell, and June Close. Those who have preferred to become connected with the business staff of The Times by becoming assistants to the circulation manager, ad solicitors, collectors, and mailing managers are Hilda Margaret Spangle, Ina Claire Chappell, Mary Jane Wagoner, June Haeger, June Close, and Bob Storm. Bob Storm was so successful with his work as assistant circulation manager that, though he is only a fresh- man, he has held the position of circulation manager for six weeks during the last semester. There are also a number of diligent freshmen who have done their daily good deed for The Times by carrying on the worlc of room agents in connection with the circulation of the paper. Those who 'have taken charge of this type of work are Sue Wallace, Delbert Dickmeyer, Marjorie Glass, Don Sinish, Bob Storm, Mildred Hoff, Ina Claire Chappell, Philip Greeley, Maxine Morton, Clara Jane McElwain, and Maria Haven. Many other members of the class of '37 have occupied their spare time by cultivating their musical ability and becoming a member of 29 ' THE TOTEM Edythe Thornton Jerry Zehr Bob Zieg Rosalan Zinn N Jesse Ellen Zollars Donna Bill Doris Gardner Victor Nussbaum the band, the orchestra, Boys' Glee Club, or Girls' Glee Club and taking an active part in the concerts, musical comedies, girls' minstrel show, boys' minstrel show, and other musical productions under the able direction of Mr. Jack Wainwright. The Torch Club, which, under the direction of the Y. M. C. A., offers splendid opportunities to freshman and sophomore boys for a good all-around entertaining, recreational, and educational program, has also proved to be a very attractive club to several of the new freshmen. The U. S. A. Club for freshman and sophomore girls, sponsored by the Y. W. C. A., has attracted to its folds many of the freshman girls who have a desire to be of service to their school and to have a good time while performing this service. A number of freshman girls have also manifested their interest in the literary things of life by tripping the light fantastic up the inclines to the Greeley Room on the alternate Tuesday afternoons on which the Meterite Club, literary club for freshman and 10B girls, meets and presents entertaining and educational programs. Still other girls who have more of an inclination toward the art of homemalcing have signified their intention of contributing their share to the future prosperity and welfare of the country by becoming members of the Wo-Ho-Ma Club for worthy homemalcers. The Art Club, Junior Math Club, Wranglers, Travel, Philatelic, Societas Romana, German Club, and French Club have also been suc- cessful in attracting to their charmed circles of comradeship and good cheer a number of the freshmen who are especially interested in the particular line of activity which those organizations present for the edihcation and entertainment of their members. Taken all in all, most of the members of the class of 1937 have made a good start for a very successful high school career in South Side and have shown by this excellent beginning that they are capable of carrying on the standards of their school, following in the foot- steps of those who have carried the torch of scholarship and service before them. 30 Yesterdays Yearling Youngsters By BOB STORM Members of Miss I-lodgson,s home room class in room 80 won the fresh- man scholarship plaque during both the fall and spring terms, outdistancing its other freshman opponents. 1.1 . ii S E, . l fr 'DP Freshman honor plaque winners, room 80 - s Q F Y , 1' 'A s ' ' 4' ' Z:-'fi' X 5 -' ' QW, Q f, .eI ,, , f s..s1.i.

Starting young in their scholastic careers at South Side, many freshmen are showing indications of a promising future. Among them are Clyde Moore, Carl Banks, Ned Henslee, Nadine Noe, Betty Rose Simon, Charles Hart, Marjorie Turner, Ina Claire Chappell, John Bex, and Clyde Nusbaum. They are making names for themselves in both curricular and extra-curricular work. Carl Banks and Ned Henslee, often seen together, Marjorie Turner and Ina Claire Chappell John Bex sunning themselves are interested in the Rifle Club and intramural tag football, basketball, tennis, volleyball, wrestling, and boxing. Nadine Noe and Betty Simon malce use of their extra time singing in the Girls' Glee Club. Charles Hart is an active member in the Art, Junior- Math, Marionette, Torch, and Travel Clubs, besides being in the Boys' Glee Club. Marjorie Turner and Ina Claire Chappell have turned their interests to Me- terites. Ina Claire is also Times co-mailing manager, a member of the Art club, and is on the honor roll. Clyde Nusbaum John Bex has gained re- nown as a member of the Philatelic Society, Marion- ette, Booster, Junior-Math, 1500, Torch, and Cwlee Clubs, Ti in e s co-mailing manager, and representative of The Times in the Inter- club Congress. Clyde Nusbaum has gone out for intramural sports and has made a good show- ing in baseball, horse shoe pitching, and the t r a c lc meet. THE TOTEM Social Work Is More Than a Hobby By ROSELYN JACKSON The U. S. A. Club has done so many things this year that it was hard to choose the month in which the most important work was done. November was finally chosen. During this month the Needlework Guild handed in some very fine work, and the annual Thanksgiving baskets were given to two needy fam- ilies. U. S. A. girls also co-operated with the Parent- Teacher Association during the rummage sale by col- lecting a large amount of the clothing. The U stands for unity. This was carried out by the election of capable oHicers. Those of the fall sem- ester were: President, Dorothy Crabillg vice-president, Virginia Greinerg secretary, l'lelen Andersong treas- urer, Margaret Dickmeyer. The chairmen of the vari- Top Row: E.

The oliicers during the spring semester were Vir- ginia Greiner, president, Ruth Rose, vice-president, Virginia Fathauer, secretary, Fay Bechtold, treasurer, Grace Nelson, membership chairman, Ruth Garrison, publicity chairman, Irene Becker, service chairman: and Marie Wolf, social chairman. The Inter-club Congress representative was Grace Nelson. The re- corder was June l-laeger. Many things were done for Service, the NS in the club's name, during the entire year. The members aided the school in the collection of used text books for the boys and girls who needed them. Of course, there were the Thanksgiving baskets at Thanksgiving time, the rummage sale, and the towels which were hemmecl at a regular meeting by the Needlework Guild. Scrapbooks were made and given to the Day Nursery. A Secret Pall' personal service was carried on by the members during the first semester. Each girl was given a name of another girl to whom she would write notes, send cards, and show other signs of courtesy without the latter finding out who her secret pal was. The last meeting of the semester was devoted to the revealing of the secret pals. S also stands for social activities, into which the club enters whole-heart- edly. In the fall semester, a peppy and successful membership drive was held. Soon after that a very enjoyable potluck was given for the new and old members. In De- cember, the annual Christmas party held the limelight. Another membership drive was held during the spring semester. This was followed by a novel radio party. The annual Moth- er-Daughter Tea was at- tended by nearly all the members and their moth- ers. To conclude the ' club's social activities, the annual spring picnic was held. Degrees were awarded the girls. Under A we find the word Appreciation, which means the proper recognition of worth and merit. The club has devised a method to honor those girls who are outstanding in club work. During the first semes- ter, a member may earn the single triangle degree, the second semester, the double triangle degree is given, and, to climax the good work done, a triple triangle degree is awarded in the third semester. This is the highest award a girl can receive, and it is a great honor to be awarded this degree. It is a blue felt triangle with G, R. inside. Those girls who received this honor in January are: June Haeger, Fay Bechtold, Virginia Greiner,iRuth Rose, Bernadette Dygert, Bea- trice Schuler, Margaret Dickmeyer, Dorothy Crabill. 32 THE TOTEM Travel Our Way By PAUL TREY Trn vel Club President Travel Club has several ideals and purposes, namely, to unite the energy, interest, and knowledge of South Side's would-be travelers, to collect and disseminate information about various parts of the earth, to further the achievements of its members through world knowledge, to educate its members for intelligent travel and to further international good will through an understanding of the environment and social life of foreign people. Any student of South Side who is interested in the ideals of the club is eligible to become a member. A theme is picked by the officers and faculty adviser and then carried out throughout the semester. During the fall semester, the letters in the word travel were taken, and the theme was worked around them. Each let- ter was assigned to a program chairman and his program had to be based on this letter. This was carried on very successfully by the following pro- gram chairmen: Agnes Vaught, Margaret Crankshaw, Paul Trey, Alfred Schlie, Elaine Thompson, and Doris Patch. Martha Suter was in charge of the evening party that was held during the fall semester. The officers for the first semester were: President, Barbara Haven, vice- president, William Brunner, secretary, Roselyn Jackson, foreign secretary, Betty Hull, treasurer, Bob Goldstine, sergeant-at-arms, Harry Johnson, and Inter-club Congress representative, Marian Johnson.

With that relay off my chest, I shall proceed to pick up the hurdlers and inform you all that a few honors were picked up in the 1933-34 season. At the State Fair fnot the one in which Will Rogers starred, The Times was awarded: First in Indiana. The Indiana High School Press Association also said The Times was Best in Indiana. The Columbia Scholastic Press Association added the rating of Medalist. Then the National Scholastic Press Association called The Times a Pacemaker. But I, of course, held the best for the last. That is the rating as One of the Best in the World,' which was given by Quill and Scroll, the international honorary society for high school journalists. Beside these contest honors, special honors have been received. Among these is a bronze quill given by the C. S. P. A. as recognition to its prize winning charter member. At the conven- tion of that organization and that of the N. S. P. A., issues of The Times were on special exhibi- tion. But not only organ- izations extended these honors. No, they are also given by schools and colleges which request copies of the paper to show t h e i r journalism classes as good examples. This goo d examplea' stuff is what their letters state, after they get them they may set them up as warnings. But all honors are not won by the organization. No, indeed.

Two More Championships By HUGH STAHL Times Sports Editor The Northeastern Indiana Conference and city football cham- pionships, emblematic of supremacy on the gridiron in northeastern Indiana, came to South Side in the month of November, for the sec- ond successive year. The Archers successfully closed their season on Thanksgiving Day at Elkhart with an excellent record of eight wins, one tie, and one loss, setting their all-time record at seventy wins, five ties, and twenty-four losses. Victories were chalkecl up against Columbia City, Peru, Frankfort, Central Catholic, North Side, Bluffton, Central, and Elkhart in that order. Both of the scars on the Greenis otherwise clean slate came early in the season, the lone loss being suffered in the first clash at the hands of the Hammond Wildcats and the tie game being played in the same month against Mishawaka. Coach Lundy Welborn built his team around two veteran grid stars, Don Powell in the line and Chet Ensley in the backfleld. These two and Bob Robinette, diminutive guard, were the only regulars returning from the championship aggregation of 1932, but a wealth of new material was uncovered at the ten-day summer football camp on Lake Tippecanoe. During the latter part of August, sixty-nine of South Sideis pigskin aspirants attended Camp Crosley where they received some very valuable and very necessary drilling in fundamen- tals and conditioning. Besides learning football, several of the boys walked off with athletic and life saving honors. Bob Robinette won the Purdue Trophy for being high point man in the annual field meet, Ir was the next day after camp had closed, August 31, that the T'-IISC general call for football was issued, Lundy found that he was going to have a good eleven and plenty of capable reserves. His players were in fine condition, the average gain in weight had been five pounds per man. In the next two weeks of pre-season practice, he pointed his newly-formed elevens towards the opener with the Wildcats from Hammond. During the first minute of play in the night game at Hammond, South Side's two ends starred, accounting for the Archers' lone touchdown. On a punt by the Wildcats, who had their backs to the wall, Powell rushed in and blocked the ball, and Reiff recovered the pigskin over the goal line for the marker. Ginn successfully drop- kicked the ball for the extra point. Inexperience lost the clash for the Archers in the remaining fifty-nine minutes of play, the Wildcats coming out on top, 18 to 7. On the following day, September 16, the Welbornites opened their home season by triumphing over the Columbia City Eagles, 13 to O. The scoring was all clone in the second halfg three times in the first two quarters the Archers had the ball in scoring position, even once on the one-yard line, and then lost it. South Side was furnished plenty of tough competition by Peru, a new athletic opponent, but hnally won 20 to 13 in a night clash. After scoring thirteen points in the initial quarter, the Archers let up on their pass defense, and the Circus City lads tied the score. Ensley tallied the necessary margin of victory in the final period. The Mishawaka Maroons held South Side to a 6 to 6 tie on Sep- tember 30, back on the home he-ld again. Both teams scored in the third quarter, and the Maroons missed several other good chances to repeat. It was the best played game of the season so far for the Archers. 36 TI-IE TOTEM Rolled Up by the Green Wave Showing a vast improvement in all departments, especially in passing, the Archers whipped the Frankfort Hot Dogs in another night game on the road. The Green shock troops saw action in this clash and allowed Frankfort its only touchdown in the third period. South Side overwhelmed the Central Catholic Trish in the final quarter of their meeting on October Zl, winning ZZ to 0, after scoring only three points on a field goal during the first three periods. The following Friday night the Kelly Klads received a serious threat from North Side in their second city series game but finally Won, 14 to 6. The Redskins opened the scoring early in the second quarter on an 80-yard run through right tackle, but South Side counted shortly after with a touchdown, and Ginn added the extra point on a drop kick. On November 10, the Green stayed at home and gained an easy victory over Coach Templin's Bluffton Tigers, 24 to 6. In the all-decisive Central clash, South Side upset the highly-touted Cen- Lundy Welborn, football mentor, standing in front of the brains of his elevens. lncidentally, the coach really liked this picture.

South Side was adjudged one of the ten best tant crowns, winning by the score of Z8 to 0. The Archers scored sixteen points in the second period and twelve in the fourth, and the entire team clicked well. Ensley was the outstanding player, scoring three of the four touchdowns tallied during the sixty-minute battle. Nineteen first downs were piled up by the Green against only six for Central. South Side now has the edge in city series victories over its hated but respected rival, with six wins to Central's five. To play its last game, the Green Wave traveled to Elkhart and handed the Blue Blazers a 25 to 18 defeat. The clash was exciting and close from the opening whistle to the final gun. The Blue Blaz- ers came from behind at the beginning of the sec- ond half with two touch- downs which put them temporarily ahead, but Ginn soon regained the lead for the Archers with a touchdown and a con- verted drop kick, and the Green Wave was never again headed.

Making Every Week A Music Week By AVANELL GLASS Music Department Accompanist The short phrase, uthe new dealn, which came into existence a few months ago, has meant a great deal to the people of the United States. South Sideis new deal come in through the enlargement and addition to every line in the music department. The year opened with Mr. Jack Wainwright, a little but mightyn man, taking over the reins. Very few people realized that this man really meant business until the band gave the opening program for the Incliana Teachers' Association. The band grew from 50 to 120 members within three weeks. South Side's band for the first time in its history was not only the talk of the town, but of the entire state. The band was more than recognized by the student body on that first morning of its appearance. It won a place in every studentis heart. Here was the first card in South Side's music department's New Dealf, The orchestra was the next to take a huge step for- ward, placing another card in South Sideis New Deal. Its membership leaped from thirty-five to sixty. Because of the large membership of the or- chestra and the inconvenience of taking it about the city, a small orchestra was organized. This was called the Little Symphony. The members were: Violins, Gardner, Dent.

These people entertained at churches and at different home room classes A double string quartet was organized to help out at several assemblies. This consisted of violins, Mary Jo Allen, Dale Burgener, Georgianna Jane jones, and Carl Smithg violas, Doris Xxfilliams and Evelyn Lehman, and cellos, Elizabeth Lickert and Margaret Rehm. Many factory employes were entertained at their noon hour by a group of boys who formed a double brass quartet. Ir was composed of cornets, Norwood Dalman, Don I-lickman, Williain Nickerson, and Lloyd Burgenerg trombones, Dick Hickman, Dick Snook, Arnold Metsch, and Edward Archer. In order that citizens of Fort Wayne might enjoy The endmen in the Boys' Minstrel the Christmas season more, the South Side music de- partment tried to do its share by caroling in down- town shops and banks. Evidently the music department did not rest during the Christmas vacation, as it came out with a very good band concert within a few weeks. One of the biggest factors that aided our basketball season in going over , was the band which never failed to be there. Mr. Wainwright wrote pep songs for the important city games. Tn the Land of Cotton was the next production which was given by an entire cast of boys. Mr. R. Nelson Snider, who was really embarrassed several times, acted as interlocutor. This proved to be a real minstrel show. Just like thatu the Girls, Glee Club had a minstrel show ready with Miss Dorothy Benner taking the part of interlocutrix. Those who took part in the circle are Ruth Ann Larimore, Maria Haven, Margaret Ames, Gretchen Linn, Betty Baltzell, Marjory Dancer, Helen Sinish, Betty Medaris, Mary Louise lrlelms, Elizabeth Arlene Close, Emily Gardner, Alwilta Tarney, Ammy Pfieffer, Virginia Beck, Alice Bandtel, Peggy Newell, Eileen South, and Erna Fuhrman.

D THE TOTEM 'Yi s -'te mL The purpose of the student exhibit in 1933 was to acquaint better the parents and friends of the pupils with the work and departments of the school. Because of the reports of the parents who attended and showed a great deal of interest and appreciation, it was de- cided that it is to be an annual affair, occurring once a year sometime during the month of May. Each department makes its own plan for its booth and other supplementary exhibits. All the classes in school have some of their worlc exhibited, and in this manner each student will have three or four interests in the affair. In 1933, there were three thousand forty-two persons who attended, and, because of the hobby show which was added to the regular program, the attendance increased in 1934. The hobbies were contributed by any person who had a collection of interesting articles. Among the unusually interesting exhibitions staged in the gymnasium, the commercial one can take a foremost place. To several students of the business department, Mr. Conrad Morris dictated letters. Over the amplifying system, these girls read back their shorthand notes with extreme accuracy. This proved the competence with which high school students can participate in business administration. Girls of the home economics department were the mannequins in the style show staged by that depart- ment. The girls modeled those dresses, suits, and oth- er articles of clothing which they had made during the term in the regular class time under the direction of either Miss Crissie Mott or Miss Pearl Rehorst, K, LlLiltLL WURIK An Exhibit for a Night By BONNIE KUHL domestic science teachers. Morning froclcs to evening formals were displayed for public approval. Both the girls, and boys' gymnasium classes pre, sented a demonstration of their work. The girls dis- played that ability to turn and twist into almost any shape or form they so desired. They had been trained by Miss Alice Patterson. Dancing of the various na- tions was presented under the direction of Miss Gretchen Smith. Not to be outdone by the girls, the boys proved that they could be just as nimble and quick in their tumb- ling acts as the girls, for such somersaults, cart wheels, and acrobatic feats were performed that Mr. Louis Briner should be commended. Miss Suter presented a one-act play, Enter the Piero, twice during the evening with the small charge of five cents per person, the profits going to the Par- ent-Teachers' Association. Refreshments could be purchased in almost every corner of the school. Under the auspices of the Par- ent-Teachers' Association, booths were set up. Down by the main entrance, ham sandwiches and hot coffee could be purchased by paying the nominal sum of ten cents. Near the north entrance cold pop was sold, whereas, over by the middle east door, an ice cream parlor could be visited. Also to add to the treasury, the association sponsored the park-plan dancing in both the cafeteria and Greeley Room. In the cafe- teria, music was furnished by Bob Stone and his or- chestra. In the Greeley Room people tripped the light fantastic toe to the music of Bud Jones' orchestra. 42 Back Row Farries Nitzsche Trey Craig Dern Spiegel E Williams Middle Row.

Then, there came to the front a new leader who, with the sincere co-operation of all, instituted a New Dealf, Under the competent editorship of Robert Parrish and the incessant concurrence of the Senior Class, the Totem has done its part in supporting the battle cry of the day, The New Deal. The stag, those who do the actual publishing of the record of events of the school year in behalf of the senior class, has tried diligently to put in the hands first Totem, the annual has attempted to present its theme in an interesting and unprecedented fashion. This year's book has proven to be no exception. The stag, advised by Miss Rowena Harvey, has brought forth an attractive and striking manner of depicting the country's attitude, We're on our way. However, to do this, the members of the stag have been re- quired to bring forth a thorough study of the condi- tion. Hence, it is obvious that they should receive some recognition for their untiring efforts while the rest of the school was enjoying the various social func- tions of the school year. For the first time in many years the publishers of of the students a book of which they may feel justly proud. Not only will this annual increase the ever-growing memories of our school days at South Side, but it will also serve as a record of the turning point in a nation's effort to secure economic stability. Such phrases as 'QWe're on our way, The New Deal, and several sketches representing the banish- ment of the wolf are sure to recall recollections of a period of our history that we are loathe to en- dure for a second time. Ever sincethe publishing of the 43 Here is Cron, who photographed all the individual and group pictures for this Totem. the book have two means of be- ing satisfied that the Totem this year has been an overwhelming success. First, there is the appre- ciation shown by the students of the school in supporting the an- nual. This year brought forth an increase in circulation, a fact which the staff and the adviser feel is evidence of the students' apprecia- tion of what the Totem means. Secondly, there is the 1500 Club organized in 1925. This organiza- tion is based upon a point system and every participant of the jour- nalistic activities of South Side is eligible to become a member. 14- .-L--1x --vm - ix,-1-1 -vs in , ' '.

Starlets By LANE BREIDENSTEIN Intramural sports were introduced to the boys six years ago by Mr. Louis Briner, physical education in- structor. At first the number of sports offered was limited, but each succeeding year has brought forth a 44 few new sports until now there are fourteen. During the past year intramural sports became so popular that it was impossible for one person to han- dle them. Therefore, Mr. Briner appointed a few of the more capable boys to assist him. For this service they received points toward on intramural letter. To get one, the individual must earn one hundred eighty points according to the system laid out by Mr. Briner. Twenty boys now have letters, and they have organ- ized themselves into the Intramural Lettermen's Club. Tag footba11, the first of the fall sports, showed an increase of thirty-nine participants with a total of one hundred thirty-one boys competing. Due to the large number of teams, the heavyweights were divided into two leagues, the Blues and the Reds. Winners of each league battled for the championship, which was won by the Punks. Honors in the lightweight division were carried off by the Hoosiers with a perfect record. A total of twenty-five games was played. Second in the list of fall sports was cross country. 'fhirty-four boys participated in the finals with forty- seven taking part at one time or another during the workouts. Again there was a noticeable increase in the number of boys. James Meyers won in the lightweight class with a time of 8:48, while Robert Moore took the heavyweight run with a time of 7:32. Last of the fall sports were golf and tennis. In the lightweight class Bob Klopfenstein defeated twenty opponents to reach the top unscathed. Myron Jones and Robert Dent, leaders in their respective leagues, played for the championship in the heavyweight divi- sion, with Dent winning 6-1 and 6-2. Each year the winners of the fall tennis tourney are matched against the winners of the spring tourney to decide the school champion. Because some expense is incurred for greens fees and the like, there were only eight entrants in the golf match. This match was won by Robert Briegel in the lights and Sam Rea in the heavies. Strange as it may seem, the winner of the lightweights had a much lower 45 score than the winner of the heavyweights. Wrestling and boxing introduced the winter sports. Here again the number of participants was far greater than that of former years. Wrestling was divided into eight classes: 100 pounds and under, 100-112 pounds, 112-118 pounds, 118-126 pounds, 126-135 pounds, 135-148 pounds, 148-160 pounds, and 160-175 pounds. Winners of these weights in order are Howard, Mc- Bride, Bosserman, Blume, Baney, Robinette fover- timej, Miller, and Ostermeyer. Boxing was divided into seven classes: 100 pounds, 112 pounds, 112-118 pounds, 118-126 pounds, 126-135 pounds, 135-148 pounds, and 148-160 pounds. Win- ners in this order are Baney, Briegel, Parr, Kruse, Baney fbrotherj, Hans, and Makey fforfeitj. In wrestling there were sixty-six individuals com- peting, and in boxing there were thirty-three. Basketball, with three hundred one boys taking part, was easily the most popular sport of the year. The Trojans walked away with the lightweight crown and the Germs fought their way to the top in the middle- weight class. In the heavies the N. S. A, A. grabbed honors. For the first time 1V1r. Briner sponsored a basketball tournament in which all teams were composed of se- niors. The Spartans defeated their eight competitors and then squelched the intramural champions by a substantial score. Volleyball is one of the newer sports that is gaining favor year by year. The games are played during the noon periods. This year one hundred twenty-two boys took part. The Trojans won the title for the second consecutive year. Sixty-nine boys competed in the foul throwing con- test, which was won by Jerome Miller flight, and William Russell fheavyj. The contest consisted of eighty throws from the foul 1ine with the highest per- cent of baskets made winning. Other sports for which the records have not been completed are bowling, baseball, horseshoe, and track. Tow Row lleft to rightl: L. Trier, D Sparkman, E. Holtman, B. Hardendorf J. Dern, M.

By JOHN DERN German C lub One of South Side's newer clubs, which is com- pleting its second successful year, is the German Club, better known to German students as Deutscher Verein. Thirty-six of South Sidels 125 German students are members of this club, which has as its aim the attain- ment of a greater knowledge of the speech, literature, music, and customs of the German people than could otherwise be had in the regular class work. The fall semester programs were guided by the of- ficers, Gertrude Marahrens, president, Betty Baltzell, vice-president, Margaret Dickmeyer, secretary, Robert Wiehe, treasurer, and James Kennedy, delegate to the Inter-club Congress. Various German songs and games constituted the majority of the meetings' programs. Mr. Henry Wahl, a native of Germany, spoke to the club on UGerman School Life, and the annual Wiener bake and Christmas party rounded out the first half of the yearis activities. The second semester was devoted to a study of the German composers, Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schu- bert, and Schumann. Reports on these masters were given by Margaret Dickmeyer, June Haeger, Arleth Carvin, Marian Wolff, Betty Baltzell, Susanne Meyer, Mary Martha Hobrock, Burton Hardendorf, James Thompson, and John Dern. Deutscher Verein was conducted during the second semester by John Dern, president, Margaret Dick- meyer, vice-president, Betty Baltzell, secretary, and Kathryn Magley, treasurer. Miss Clara Schmidt is the faculty adviser of the club. Stamp Club Successfully completing its Hrst full year of existence is the South Side Philatelic Society, membership in which is open to any person interested in stamp or cachet collecting. The club was guided through the fall semester by the officers, James Sweet, president, Jane Loomis, vice-president, jane Louise Brinkman, secretary, Robert Blomker, treasurer, Robert Long, sergeant-at-arms, and Robert Archer, delegate to the Inter-club Congress. Miss Van Gorder is adviser. The club has been very active this year, not only in their own circles, but outside as well. The club conducted the weekly column, More Revenue in rhe school paper, sponsored a stamp exhibit before the school, and entered the city exhibit. The theme of the clubis programs was the study of stamps as investments in money, knowledge, and use of leisure time. To bring out this topic, several outside collectors spoke before the club. These in- cluded Mr. D. Ferguson, Mr. Robert Coulette, Mr. Roscoe Tapp, and Mr. Ralph Virts. Debates, playlets, contests, and exchanges consti- tuted the remainder of the club's programs. Study was made of the Pan-American, Maryland, Byrd, Trans-Mississippi, Columbian, and Kosciusko stamp issues. A Christmas party, picnic, and skating party rounded out the year's activities. The society,s spring officers included Robert Long, president, Helen Kelsey, vice-president, Hazel Kutt- ler, secretary, Eugene Holtman, treasurer, Robert Archer, sergeant-at-arms, and Clayton Kilpatrick, In- ter-club Congress -representative.

By JOHN DERN Latin Club To enhance the cultural side of Latin study, thirty-five Latin students are members of their lan- guage,s club, Societas Romana. Ofiicers of the club included Eugene Craig, president, Lillian Thompson, vice-president and program chairman, Helen Allen, secretary-treasurer, and Richard Schannen, delegate to Inter-club Congress. With the permanent absence of Helen Allen, Robert Blomker was later elected sec- retary-treasurer. Plays, speeches, and music constituted a greatly varied program. Vergil's birthday was celebrated by a speech about the famed poet's life by Robert Para rish, a story of the Aeneid,,' and a reading of Ten- nysonis To Vergilf' Miss Woodwardis senior Ver- gil class presented before the club a play, Gods Con- descendf' dealing with a modernized Mount Olympus, home of the gods. This play, with a Latin Club cast, was later presented before the school student body. The December meeting took the form of a Latin'Sat- urnalia, corresponding to our Christmas celebration. To present the dress and some of the customs of Romans, a group of boys, arrayed as prominent Roman men, gave sketches of their lives. Catiline's conspiracy was depicted in a play by Miss Mellen's Cicero class. Poems and readings furnished another meeting's entertainment with the story of Pompeii and the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Mr. Martin Rothert, head of South Side's language department, spoke to the club about Caesar, and the famed Ides of March were further displayed by Eugene Craig,s chalk talk on Caesar. French Club French students with a semester's work and a grade of B or above are eligible for South Side's French Club, Cercle Francais. Thirty-five of the one hun- dred twelve French students are members with Miss Olive Perkins as faculty adviser. Caroline Williams served as president of the club through the fall sem- ester and was assisted by Alice Burry, vice-president, Marseille Sailer, secretary, and Virginia Crewdson, representative to the Inter-club Congress. Aiming to promote interest in France and in its language, history, people, and customs, the club chose as its year,s theme the study of French history and governlhent. Miss Hazel Miller of the school,s history department spoke to the club about the age of Louis XIV. A review of uMarie Antoinetten was given by Elinor Sieber. Miss Reid, who has resided in France for several years, spoke to the club about French schools, and Mr. Wilson, also of the history department, discussed the political parties of France. A Christmas party was also held by the club. The French Club's spring semester ofiicers were Albert Bidelot, president, Evelyn Schwartz, vice- presidentg Lloyd Grodrian, secretary, and Elberra Beal, Inter-club Congress delegate. Others who have been quite active in the club's work include Edith Spangle, Georgianna Thornton, Frank Montgomery, Martha Suter, and Eleanor Cupp. The French club is also one of South Sidels newer clubs, having been organized in the fall of 1932. THE TOTEM Come up for a Ht and tea, too. The Wo-Ho-Ma Club gets its name from the phrase Worthy Home Makersf' by using the first two let- ters of each word. Being a club with its interests cen- tered around the home, it has tried to carry out a pro- gram that is centered there. The general theme of the year,s work has been, Beauty in the Home. Such special subjects as Wall Paper and Its Possibilities in the Various Roomsf' Arrangement of Furniture, 'QI-langing of Pictures, Floor Treatmentf, 'QThe Girl as a Vital Part of the I'Iome, and Entertainment in the I-Tome, were discussed. Several outside speakers furnished parts of the dif- ferent programs during the last year. Miss Eleanor Smeltzley gave a talk on South America as she saw it while she was there, and Miss Erma Dochterman talked about Art in the I-iomef, Mr. Hescel, a repre- sentative of Wolf 66 Dessauer's, gave a talk on In- terior Decoratingf' On the eighth day of March, the club initiated the new members in a beautiful candle-light ceremony. Those who had the main parts in it were the president, Mary Ann Fark, the spirit of Home Eco- ' nomics, Martha Franz, and the pianist, Beatrice Schieber. The aims of the club are to train young women to be active and efficient leaders in home, school, and community life, to fur- nish an opportunity through organization for social life, such as is obtained through their programs and social gatherings, and to promote more interest in Home Eco- nomics. Two weeks before the initiation cere- mony, the club held a pot-luck after school one night, and twenty-seven girls attended. The club has started a new system regarding dues. Those girls who pay their dues of twenty-five cents a semester are called active members, and those who Tomorrow We Will Feed You By PHYLLIS RUDIG do not pay their dues are called associate members. When the club plans a party, the active members are exempt from paying to go to the party, but the asso- ciate members have to pay if they want to come. The active members plan all the programs, and the asso- ciate members may come to all the meetings but can not take part in helping to plan these. The members decided not to have a general theme for the spring semester, but they divided the members into four squads, and each one planned several meet- ings. This was done quite successfully. The officers during the fall were Mildred Sipe, pres- ident, Helen Goddard, vice-president, and Clara Jef- feries. secretary-treasurer, and they helped greatly to carry out the program as outlined. Mary Ann Fark, president, Eorestine Valentine, vice-president, and Helen Clark, secretary-treasurer, acted as the officers of the club during this semester. Top Row lleft to rightl: Miss Mott, R.

Continuing the policy initiated in the first year of its existence, namely, that of active participation in all club activities by every member, the Social Science Club enjoyed a very successful year. As might be expected, the club, composed of juniors and seniors passing rigid entrance requirements, inter- ested itself in sociological projects, governmental prob- lems, governmental field trips, and social service. Many interesting programs were presented during the year, The outstanding ones included two hotly- contested debates on the subjects, Should the United States Recognize Soviet Russia? and Should the Top Row: Mr. Wilson, R.

The initiation service in the fall was in the form of citizenship proceedings for immigrants, the spring in- itiation was in the form of a mock trial. As its social service the club sponsored in April a series of vocational talks by people locally outstanding in their respect fields. These talks were especially to inform seniors in search of vocations. The field trips for the year included an inspection of the Lincoln Museum with Dr. Warren as conductor and narrator of various traits of Lincoln, and a trip . t h r o u g h the filtration plant. The climax of the club occurred on January 12, when the club sponsored a unique and original pancake supper. About 150 people attended the supper, which n e t t e d sound money for the badly deflated treasury and gave the members much practical experi- ence in business manage- ment, bargaining, and the lilce. The general committee for this affair included W Bob Rinehart.

The advisers are Mr. Wilburn Wi ls o n, Mr. H e r m a n Malcey, and Miss Eleanor Smeltzley. THE TOTEM J Scribes Do a Bit' or Themselves By MARIE BUTLER Times General Manager Now it came to pass in those days that, out of the east, from the west, yea, from all sections south, there came men bearing strange devices like unto the mat- rice of the glorified linotype, crossed even by a quill. And they spake thus one to another, Let us set our- selves apart from all men, yea, even from the fourth estate, and admit also to our numbers, sisters of the quill, to the end that we may perpetuate the high standards of the pressf, And it was so. And each man said one to another, Let not this group pass with us, but let us provide that in the years to come others may be of us. And there was one among them, Bud Beck, who spalce thus saying, An honor point system shall we have, and whosoever earneth 1500 points for the press, let him be among us. And it was so. Verily to him who earneth 1500 points is awarded a bronze pin. To him who earneth 3000 is awarded a silver pin. To him who earneth 5000 points, a gold pin. To him who earneth 10,000 points, a gold jeweled pin. Thus has the 1500 Club prospered these many years. Top Row fleft to rightl: L. Grodrian, B. Storm, L. Breidenstein, E. Craig, H. Nitzsche, B.

Shearer. clubs gave a Mother-Daughter Tea for the mothers of the members. The officers of the clubs were in general charge of the affair, and a large number of mothers attended. A convention of the Sunshine clubs of northern Indiana was held at North Manchester, April 7, and a large delegation attended from each of our clubs. The feature speaker at this convention was Miss Sand- iford, state dean of the Sunshine clubs of Indiana. A service was held at the North Manchester High School auditorium in the afternoon, and in the evening a banquet was held. Joint initiation of the new members of the clubs was celebrated April 17, and the formal service of the Sunshine Society was used with the officers of the Yvhat-Not Club in charge. The first club of the Sunshine Society was organized in Crawfordsville High School, the second club was organized in Lebanon High School in 1910. At pres- ent the Sunshine Society, as a high school organiza- tion, numbers 140 chapters in Indiana and one in Illinois. One welfare activity of the society is contrib- uting to the Riley Memorial Hospital in Indianapolis. J!!! I Top Row: E. Crowe, F. Allen, B. Noll, R. Luellen, B. Kuhl, L. Shimel, F. Suelzer, D.

By LANE BREIDENSTEIN President Student Players March was marked as a banner month for the Stu- dent Players' Club by two one-act plays, presented under the competent direction of Miss Marjorie Suter, for the entertainment of the student body. These plays, two of several splendid productions of the club during the 1933-34 season, met with such success that they were given various times before outside organi- zation. Actors in the first of these plays, the UEifteenth Candlef, a strong plea for education, were Evelyn Schwartz, Lane Breidenstein, Marguerite Blue, Ernest Williams, and Edith Spangle. The second play, a comedy entitled Wisdom Teethf' was given by Alice Burry, Pat Beall, Mark Gross, and Caroline Williams. The Student Players, Club strives to create an active Top Row: L. Meyer, A.

Each year since its founding in 1923, the number of students clamoring to be admitted to membership has increased until now it is the largest of the three drama clubs in the Fort Wayne high schools. In accordance with the policy established by the organization, the programs at the meetings, which are held the third Friday of each month, consisted of short plays. Some of these productions were directed by the studentsg but, for the most part, they were presented under the careful guidance of Miss Suter. The requirements for membership are now two semesters of the drama classes, which are offered on Mondays and Fridays, along with a scholarship stand- ing of average or above. Two sets of ofhcers handled the aH:airs of the , club during the year. The I officers of the first semes- ter were Lane Breiden- stein, president, Hugo Winterrowd, secretary, and Edythe Thornton, treasurer. Those who led the club during the sec- ond semester are: Presi- dent, Ernest Williams, vice-p r e s i d e n t, Edith Spangleg secretary-treas- urer, Evelyn Schwartz. Bob Parrish ably served as Inter-club congress- man. One of the unusual features of the Student Players, organization 'is that a separate club exists in each of Fort Wayne's three public high schools. These groups meet to- gether twice each year to hold a joint initiation and have a good frolic. Ar the middle of the year the initiation is followed by a tea dance.

March, the month of blustery winds, was exceed- ingly kind to the South Side Archers. On Saturday, March 3, the Archers won the sectional tournament after defeating two strong foes in two of the most bitterly contested games ever seen on a Fort Wayne court. Therefore, the Archers became sectional cham- pions for the first time in five years. The Archers enjoyed a very successful season, win- ning ten out of seventeen scheduled games, the city championship, and the sectional crown. The Archers started their season on November ll, with a practice game at Auburn. Because of a lengthy football sched- ule, several varsity men were still playing football and were unable to compete. However, Coach lVlcClure's combination of reserve and varsity men managed to nose out a 20-to-19 win, when Glenn Ellenwood caged a Helder in the last half-minute of play. The first home game was played on December 1 with the Garrett Railroaders. Still playing without the football men, the Archers, led by Howard Hall and Bill Geyer, staged a powerful offensive to humble the Railroaders 40 to 20. December 15 found the Archers playing at Marion. Even though the Green and White was strengthened by the hrst appearance of the football men, they found the Giants just a little bit too tough and were turned back 15 to 25. The following night, the Bluffton Tigers came to South Side and defeat- ed the Green I5 to 21 in an exceedingly r o u g h and poorly played con- test. The rough play was climaxed in the third quarter when Bill Geyer ' was knocked cold while going under the basket. The South Siders en- countered the Auburn Red Devils for the sec- ond time on December 22 and duplicated their 'Hooping It Up For a Sectional Championship By JAMES MENEFEE All-Sectional Center early season performance by turning in a 15-to-14 victory. The contest was close throughout, and Au- burn took the lead, 14 to 13, with one minute to play, but the Archers won out when Don Powell, closely guarded by two men, got a seemingly impossible pass over to Jim Menefee, who scored from under the basket. On December 27, during Christmas vacation, the Archers won over Central Catholic 16 to 13 in their first city series contest. The game was fast and close with the Archers holding a slim lead all the way. Three days later, playing their second game during vacation, the Green won over the Decatur Yellow Jackets 25 to 23. Sporting a brand new zone defense and flashing a brilliant offense as Bill Geyer scored almost at will, the Archers led 18 to 5 at the half but faltered in the second until Decatur tied the score. Ed Ginn and Brouwer George got fielders to supply the margin of victory. The Green and White displayed one of their best performances of the year on January 5, when they humbled the North Side Redskins 24 to ll on the northern court. This was the Archers, second city series contest, and they astounded basketball fans by turning what was expected to be a bitterly-fought con- test into a near rout as they held the Redskins to two Here goes the first team, George, Hall, Powell, Geyer, Lohse, and Menefee 2 54 THE TOTEM Top Row: Ellenwood, B.

Bligh, manager. field goals and seven fouls. Bill Geyer led the Green parade with ten points. The Kendallville Comets were the next opponents of the Archers and were defeated 24 to 19 on January 12. The game was well-played but rather uninterest- ing, as the Green quintet built up a commanding lead in the first half and coasted to victory by controlling the ball during the entire second half. A week later, the Archers treked to Huntington and lost a raggedly played game to the Vikings by a 20- to-13 score. I The sectional tournament was held on ' March 2 and 3 at North Side. Ten men, Bill Geyer. Ed Ginn, Bob Nelson, Bob Symonds, Don Powell, Howard Hall, Jim Menefee, Brouwer George. Paul Lohse, and Jim Ellenwood, were chosen for the tournament squad. The Archers drew a bye in the first round and played their first game with Elmhurst Friday night. The Trojans were no match for the Green and were defeated 35 to 20. Saturday afternoon the Archers met the Central Tigers. This game was easily the thriller of the tournament, with the Archers finishing ahead 23 to 21. Prac- tically all Eort Wayne turned out to watch these two bitter rivals play the crucial contest of the tourney. The South Side team, displaying perfect co-ordination and teamwork, outplayed, outfought, and out- scored the Central quintet in probably the most hotly-contested game ever played between the two schools. That night the Archers defeated Mon- roeville in an overtime game 22 to 19. Both teams were very tired from the hard play of the day, but fought all the way, keeping the spectators on the edge of their seats most of the time. The score was tied at 18-all at the end of the regulation playing time, and in the overtime period, the Green scored twice from the held to win the sectional crown for the first time in five years. In the regional the Archers were defeated in the first round by the Huntington Vikings 30 to 20. The boys tried hard, but it seemed that it just wasnit their day to hit. The following night, the Archers, still exhibiting poor basketball, entertained the Columbia City Eagles and were soundly trounced to the tune of 34 to 12. January 24, the Central Tigers romped through the Green, deep in a slump, and chalked up a 26-to-16 win with comparative ease. New Haven was the next opponent of the Archers on February 2. The Green played good basketball to emerge from their slump and register a 25-to-12 win. The strong Hartford City Airedales defeated the Archers 25 to 17 on February 9. The game was well-played and close throughout until the final quarter when diminutive Donnie Casterline, Airedale sparkplug, sank three long shots in succession to provide the Airedales, margin of victory. The North Side Redskins fell before the Archers on the following night ll to 10. It was a defensive game all the way with both teams making few attempts to score, A timely basket by little-Timmy Hilgeman and an ensu- ing foul shot won for the Green. The Archers won the city championship on February 16 by nosing out their bitter rivals, the Central Tigers, 20 to 18. For three quarters the Green decisively outplayed the Tigers, but in the last stanza the Tigers staged a rally that ended two points short. Paul Lohse was the bright light for the Green and White. The Muncie Bearcats were the final opponents of the McCluremen and defeated the Green 32 to 24. Muncie led at the half 22 to 7, but in the second half, the Archers put on pressure and pulled up within four points. 28 to 24, there Muncie braced and pulled ahead to victory. 55 it P't?'Y 5'9' ' ' fT 'N?'f X.

On February 10, the Wranglers Club again held its annual dance, which, this year, was in the form of a Valentine dance. It proved to be a great success with an attendance of approximately one hundred couples. The dance was under the general direction of Miss Dorothy Benner, faculty adviser, Hugo Winter- r o w d, presidentg and Homer Hire, vice-presi- dent. Those who assisted are Bernita Mclntosh, E r n e s t Williams, Bob Willson. Jim Kennedy, Marseille Sailer, Dorothy Tobianslci, Edith Span! gle, Edythe Thornton, Bernadine H u e r, and Dan Zehr. On February 12, the club held its next big so- cial event, which was the Wrangler potluck and in- itiation. Nearly hfty stu- dents were talcen into the club. On February 26, the Wranglers presented a play to which the stu- dent body was invited. A large audience turned out to see The Mad Break- fastf' The cast of char- acters included Homer Hire, Ernest Williams, Edythe Thornton, Phyl- lis Augspurger, Edith Spangle, Herbert Nitzsche, l'lugo Winterrowd, Bernita Mclntosh, Martha Suter, and Shirley Sykes. Although there were no social functions during the fall semester, it was by no means dull. Edith Spangle, president, Hugo Winterrowd, vice-president, Lou Sheets, secretaryg Ernest Williams, treasurer, and Sam Schaaf, sergeant-at-arms, were the officers. Several interesting speakers appeared before the club during the semester. Mr. Herbert Butterfield, director of the Fort Wayne Civic Theatre, told of his experiences during his stage career. He also answered questions concerning the stage and actors. Mr. Ward O. Gilbert, chemistry teacher of South Side, spoke to the club on his experiences in Japan when he was there as one of the members of the baseball team of B. Heuer, Fyson, G. Horn. Indiana University. Mr. Ora Davis, athletic manager of South Side, spoke on sportsmanship in a school's athletic department. Bliss Virginia Montgomery, attendance clerlc, gave an interesting address on Why Gne Should Join Wranglers Club.

During the fall semester, there were two talented musicians who entertained the Wranglers Club. Bob Goldstine, one of the most brilliant of popular piano players in Fort Wayne, was one. The other was Ira Gerig, an accomplished classical pianist. At the first meeting of the spring semester, the fol- lowing officers were elected: Hugo Xvinterrowd, presi- dent, Homer Hire, vice-president, Bernita McIntosh, secretary, Ernest Williams, treasurer, Dave Steger, sergeant-at-arms.- Ar this meeting, plans were made for the Valentine dance. Homer Hire was in charge of the orchestra, Dorothy Tobianslci, decorations, and George Ann Thornton, publicity. Marseille Sailer 56 THE TOTEM Wh Wranglers Was Organized was put in charge of the event held on April 9. The next meeting was held on January 29. The guest speaker was Dr. Martin, pastor of the Wayne Street Methodist Church. Dr. Martin spoke on Tn- tellect, Industry, and Integrity. Again Bob Goldstine played for the club.

On February 26, the Wranglers Club presented the annual play, The Mad Breakfast. This play, a com- edy farce, showed life in a boarding house. Mr. Jones, played by Homer Hire, one of the boarders and a practical joker, answers an advertisement of a writer, Mr. Long, played by Hugo Winterrowd, re- questing to study a lunatic asylum. Mr. Jones writes and tells Mr. Long that this particular boarding house is an asylum. Mr. Long comes to the house and finds quite a situation. The roomers are a queer lot and appear to be crazy. Of course, they aren't, but all ac- tion leads Mr. Long to believe it. He leaves in a hurry. The cast of characters was as follows: Miss Brown, Edythe Thornton, Miss Smith, Phyllis Augs- 57 purgerg Miss Green, Shirley Sykes, Lizzie, Bernita McIntosh, Mrs. Simpkins. Edith Spangleg Mr. l-lill, Ernest Williams, Mrs. l'-lill, Martha Suterg Mr. Long, Hugo Winterrowdg Mr. Roberts, Herbert Nitzsche, Mr. Jones, Homer l-lire. Dave Steger did the prompt- ing, while Miss Benner did the directing. On February 27, the Wranglers Club sponsored the preliminaries here of the State Discussion Contest, the winner of which was to proceed to the county contest from which a win- ner was to go to Indiana University to compete against other students. The speeches were five minutes in length with three - minute rebuttals. The subject was: Re- solved, That the United States Should Adopt the Essential Features of the British System of Radio C 0 n t r o lf, Contestants were allowed to choose either side of the ques- tion. The winner, How- ard Smith, chose the neg- ative side. Runners-up were Earl Shea, Doris Garrison, and R o b e r t Klopfenstein. At the next meeting, on March 12, the decla- mation contest was held. This contest, hereafter, is to be an annual event. Entries chose some dram- atic dialogue, whether poetry or prose, memorized it, and then gave it. This year the contest was won by Evelyn Schwartz. l-ler selection was IF, by Rudyard Kipling. The remainder of the term brought more interest- ing and entertaining events. On May 23, the Wrang- lers Club banquet was held. This affair proved to be one of the most humorous of the season. Although there was no theme for the banquet, many speeches were given. There was a master of ceremonies plus many humorous speakers and talented musicians. On May 21, the last meeting of the year was held. This meeting hereafter is to be known as Wranglers Senior Day. This meeting was a farewell to the senior mem- bers of the Wranglers Club. It was in the form of a picnic at one of the neighboring parks.

Women taken from sweat shops, chil- L Chaos hung, like the dren from mills. Charity rolls cut in half. Schools A s w o r d of Damocles, ' above the American peo- ple. A third of them were dependent on a mere existence, a dole whose cancerous growth had already sapped private, municipal, and even state funds. Revolting farmers with noose and gun, frontier-fashion, were guarding their homes from foreclosure. Factory furnaces were cold. The crack- ing credit structure had given way with the Michigan moratorium, and bank doors were closing with the thud of earth on cofhns. On that day Franklin Roosevelt stood on the steps of the Capitol and prom- ised action: Action nowlv Today, one year later, that sword is replaced by the rainbow. The President has kept his worcl. He is do- ing something. Everywhere conditions are better. True, the Pittsburgh skyline is still ominously clear. Though sirloin steaks are a ruinous four cents a pound to the Wyoming cattlemen, they are broiled in but few ovens. True, the tongues of Babel were a melody on a single string compared to the apparent confusion of the New Deal: wide-eyed economists in Washingtonis Roman temples, each saving the na- tion in his own little cubicle. Chicago meat packers operating under sixteen different codes. Kansas wheat farmers feeling they are sinning against Lord, the Bible, and the Church taking checks for not grow- ing grain, but taking them just the same. The Presi- dent uoff gold, and buying more of it every day. The government spending thirteen million dollars to Q dole for 61 open. Banks saved. Farmers relieved. Trarisients at rest. Artists at work for all the people. Shops have cu.stomers. Trains have passengers. Restaurants serve crowds. Action! America, lusty and still young, is once more going somewhere. It has stopped beating in a feather bed. It is bafiied-bewildered-moving. There's no knowing where we're going, but thank God we're on our wayf, This marching song is heard everywhere across the United States as a result of the New Deal. It is heard on Boston Common, and San Francisco's Telegraph Hill, on Fifth Avenue and Main Streetg from a furniture dealer in Lincoln, Nebraska, a streetcar motorman in Atlantag a banker in San Diego, from a South Dakota farm-woman a hundred miles from anywhere. Before the President came into office, desperate men were saying, What we need is a dictator. When he secured from Congress discretionary power so vast that it left our legislators gasping, the nation shivered, This is revolution. Toward Communism or Fascism? Which? Neither. Actually, one subconscious reason for the average man's trust in the President is his adherence to the principles laid clown by the Founding Fathers. When the people voted overwhelmingly for the New Deal, they were not asking for a change in the spirit of our government. Theirs was no mandate to change the framework, to make our parliament a pic- nic, as in Russia, or, as in Germany, a gesture. ,Y ,A ,..,-. -l..Y-,- .--r ....-:S--v.-..wa, - Q Top Row: C.

After twelve years of prosperous activity, the Math- Science Club is one of the outstanding organizations of South Side. The club was formed in the fall of 1922, and all the teachers of mathematics and science at that time served as the advisers. As other clubs were formed, various members of the faculty became sponsors of other groups until at present only four teachers each year serve as Math-Science aides. Miss Adelaide Fiedler and Mr. Lloyd Whelan were the ad- visers during the fall semester, and Miss George Ann Hodgson and Mr. Elma Gould served during the spring semester. The purpose of this organization, in concise form, is to promote the knowledge of mathematics and science and to create and maintain an interest in these subjects. The interest taken by the members in the fields of mathematics and science, it is hoped, may re- sult in worthy and intelligent use of leisure time, in creating an interest in the practical way in which mathematics and science can be used in daily living, in enabling the members to become familiar with the great work which has been done by the different men and women as these subjects have been developed during each generation, in enabling both teachers Mr. Whelan Miss Fiedler The Whole Is Equal to the Sum of All Its Parts By RACHEL MAGLEY and students. who have this common interest, to be better acquainted.

Mr. Gould Miss Hodgson THE TOTEM True Blue Art Club By ELINOR SIEBER The month of April, with the annual dance, marked the climax to the activities of the Art Club during 1933-34. The Dance of the I-loursl' was the theme. The guests came in costumes ranging from early morning attire to sophisticated formals. The Greeley Room was transformed into a summer garden in the evening. The effect was perfect naturalness. A large, vividly colored umbrella graced one corner of the room while a hall: moon shone from another. Moon- light and Rosesn might well have been the theme song. One of the most beautiful of social functions at South Side was the Art Club tea. Mr. Homer G. Da- Back Row: Kimble, I. C. Chappell, C. Hart, D. Dochterman, Stephenson, G. Ellen- wood, W. Brown, H.

A potluck lunch served as re- freshments for the artists after the sketching at Fos- ter Park. The grand Hnale' on the Art Club calendar was the lake party at Lake Gage June Z. George Ann and Edythe Thornton were hostesses. Swimming, hiking, dancing, singing, and eating filled every minute of the holiday. Doing their share of philanthropic work, the Art 63 Club made varied colored, oilcloth picture books for rhe children at Irene Byron Sanitarium at Christmas time. The thank-you letters from the children were greatly enjoyed. To add to the seasonal feasting, a Thanksgiving party with fruits, nuts, and cake was held. The pro- gram carried out the idea of thanks. The Rev. Charles M. Houser was the only outside speaker during the year. l-le gave an interesting and an educational talk on Church Architecture. With prints, he illustrated the various types of architecture from early Egyptians. Those who were re- sponsible for the success of the club for the '33 ,semester are: Leon Un- derwood, presidentg Jane T o l a n, vice-president, Milford Kruse, secretary, Eugene Craig, treasurerg Virginia Vesey, program chairman. During the '34 semes- ter Jane Tolan served as president, Virginia Vesey as vice-president, George Ann Thornton, secretaryg Glen Ellenwood, treasur- erg Berneta MCI n t o s h, program chairman. And orchids to Miss E r m a Dochterman for her exceptionally capable sponsorship of Art Club ' during the year. Arr Club creed is as follows: Harmony is the law of life. T believe in looking for beauty every- where, for it may be found at any time in any place. I express this law of harmony, which is beauty, in proportion to its possession of my consciousness and my response to it in my daily living. Art means service and better living, Art is beauty become real. For Art to appear in the works of man, or for him to appreciate its presence, it must be there as a working element in both his conscious and unconscious life. It is an expression of character, philosophy and pur- pose of our civilization and our era. I must make my creations good, honest, and true. Whatever my walk in life, I shall labor lovingly and honestly toward the realization of an ideal. THE TOTEM f'We're All Right , I, , Philo By PATSY BEALL Philo President November, that historical month, proved to be the time when Philo staged its biggest event of its fiscal year. On November 10, preceding the South Side and Central football clash, the Philale- thian Society gave their annual dance. Its theme was The World,s Fair and Century of Progress. The Greeley Room was attractively decorated in keeping with this idea. A canopy, composed of the brilliant colors predominating at the Chicago Fair, was draped from the ceiling. Placed around the room were posters in keeping with the affair, with a large one as background for the orchestra, which was Dan Yoder,s. The Philalethian Literary Society is one of the oldest and most prominent organizations in South Side. It was founded in 1922, the first year of the school's existence, and Miss Elizabeth Demaree was faculty adviser, a teacher who has capably and efficiently occu- pied that position to the present time. Miss Demaree showing part of her collection of Elizabethan theatres to Miss Oppelt The motto of the club, which is the meaning of its Greek name, is loving truth. With these standards in mind, Philo plans its yearly calendar consisting of many interesting programs and various social events. The installation of officers and the initiation of new members are the events of the first meetings of the school year. The program committee for this first semester decided to study literary men of Indiana. Meetings concerning the lives and works of vari- ous Hoosier poets, novel- ists, and dramatists were slated for the First semes- ter. Th e reports and speeches on these several writers w e r e prepared and given by Philo girls. The annual W e i n e r bake given by the losing side to the winning side in the membership drive, was an event held out in Foster Park on the river banks. Since the two op- posing sides tied in the race for obtaining the most new members, it was more or less a victory pic- nic for both teams. A custom of the soci- ety is to observe most of the holidays with some sort of a celebrationg the Christmas meeting was one of the most fascin- ating of the year. Mrs. V. Beck, V. Holtman. H.

A lovely tea was held at the home of Alice Hulse in January for the active members and alumnae. About sixty guests attended this affair at which Miss Demaree, Patsy Beall, and Alice Hulse re- ceived, and Edythe Thornton presided at the tea table. In March, under the direction of Edith Spangle, the twelfth annual Saint Patriclc's Day banquet was held with the Q'New Deal as its theme. Over ninety guests were at the get-together including parents, teachers, alumni, and active members. At the yearly joint meeting with Meterites, a younger literary club, Philo girls presented the play, Alice Biue Gown. The younger group returned the com- pliment with a program consisting of musical selections and read- ings.

A charming tea was given in May to honor the girls' mothers. At this time a play was presented. On Senior Day, a tradition of the organization, the jun- iors entertained the graduating seniors at the home of one of their members. At this time election of officers for next fall was held, Alice Hulse being elected the president. The final event on the Philo calender was their annual picnic at which time the seniors staged their concluding program for the good ol' gold and white. On Recognition Day Philo presents a loving cup to the student in any English six class who does the best piece of creative writing during the term. The cup was first presented last year when it was award- ed to Sam Rea for his ex- cellent work in a personal essay. The name of the p e r s o n receiving the award is engraved on it. The cup is to be awarded every year, henceforth. To become a member of Philo, one must be a IOA, maintain a grade of B in English, and be passing in all subjects. Then, a written applica- tion is presented to the adviser, and, upon her recommendation, the girl is invited to join the or- ganization.

THE TOTEM The Kindest Thing in the Kindest Way By VIRGINIA KINCADE Blessed are the happiness makers, blessed are they who know how to shine on one,s gloom with their cheer. -Henry Ward Beecher. The month of November found So-Si-Y the cyno- sure in South Side High School when the club held its annual Faculty Tea. The aim of this tea is to create or to make firmer a link of a happy and clear understanding between the faculty and the club. Many teachers were honored to be the guests of the members of the club. Those present were entertained with games and a creative pageant which proved to be a successful summary of the former meetings' discussion, What constitutes a good time for high school girls? So-Si-Y, a branch of the Y. W. C. A. and an elder sister of the U. S. A., was formed in South Side ten years ago. It is a Girl Reserves' club, which endeavors to further the Christian qualities of its members. These qualities are idealized in the Girl Reserves' code as follows: As a Girl Reserve I will try to be: Gracious in manner, Impartial in judgment, Ready for service, Loyal to friendsg Top Row: U. Morton, B. Medaris, M. Weibel, B. Ringwalt, H. Sherwood, E. Gardner, B. Reaching toward the best, Earnest in purpose, Seeing the beautiful, Eager for knowledge, Reverent to God, Victorious over self, Ever dependable, Sincere at all times. So-Si-Y is always ready for servicei' that is needed in the club, school, and community. The advisers and members are always striving together to see how much and in how many ways they can give, how much they can help others and serve their fellow men. This year the members heartily indulged in needle guild work by hemming five dozen towels. Ar Thanks- giving, So-Si-Y filled four large boxes with thirty different articles of food and distributed these to needy families in Fort Wayne. Likewise, at Christmas, four large boxes, one of which was contributed by Miss Smeltzley and a friend, were distributed. So-Si-Y sent sixteen dozen valentines with extra material to the Grace Reformed Orphanage, mended two dozen cafeteria aprons for Miss Mellen, sent ten dozen col- ored Easter eggs to Wheatley Center, and sent scrap- books to the College Club Day Nursery. So-Si-Y also sold theme paper and stationery. The theme paper was sold during every period in the study hall by So-Si-Y girls. Just before Christ- Jenkins B. Wolf H. Hickman R. Rudi V. Kincade V.

Several members made and sold candy at the Minstrel show, given by the Boys, Glee Club, in order to help earn money for So-Si-Y,s Totem pic- tures. Besides, twenty So- Si-Y girls unselfishly ren- dered services to the school by assisting with duties pertaining to the administrative office. Each year the girls en- ter into a world fellow- ship project. Last year they sent portfolios to China, this year they sent world fellowship cards to England, F r a n c e, and Holland. The girls who participated in this year's p r o e c t are: Marseille Sailer, Bernadine Heuer, 66 THE TOTEM Geraldine Schmidt, Fran- ces Adams, Dorothy Gar- ling, Violet Wittmer, El- frieda Enz, Marie Flaig.

It is evident that So- Si-Y has always lovingly given that which was most needed. So-Si-Y has participat- ed in many social activi- ties throughout the last two semesters. The club not only held the Faculty Tea but also held its annual Mother-Daughter Tea in April. It assisted the other Girl Reserve clubs in giving a dance at Central High School in order to help pay for its sum of money pledged to the Y. W. C. A. and also assisted in giving a Tournament Dance. In order to encourage new members to join So-Si-Y, the club gave two parties, one the second meeting of each semester, for all old members and any girl who was a 11A or over. The So-Si-Y girls were entertained as guests of the Polar-Y girls at North Side High School, and in turn, the Polar-Y girls were guests of So-Si-Y at its Christmas program. The programs of the club for the last two semesters were splendidly planned by the advisers and cabinet members, along with Roselyn Jackson and Ruth Kreidt, who willingly gave their services in gilding the covers of the programs. During the fall semester the club's theme was Seeing Things in a New Light, from which the following subjects were discussed at the meetings: What constitutes a good time for a high school girl? How can we build better family relationships? q'What is worthwhile in our lives?,' During the spring semester, the theme emphasizing the uplifting of character, was Building Our Tomor- row. The program carrying out this theme was as follows: 77 Prologue ....,.... . . . . . . . . .,,.,. .January 30 fPep Meeting, Act I-Laying a Foundation. Scene 1-Raising the Fund fpartyj . .

THE TOTEM Something To Roar About By HUGH STAHL The mighty roar of the press, which has its way of getting under the skin of the average person, has its little niche at South Side. Room 20 in the northern- most part of the building is the exact place. The School Press is likely to exist for a long time to come, as it has been fulfilling its purpose to the Fort Wayne School Board ever since it was installed here late in the summer of 1928 to save the taxpayers' money. South Side was made the chosen spot large- ly through the influence of Miss Rowena Harvey, fac- ulty adviser of the South Side publications and teacher of journalism at South Side. Room 20 is large enough to house the plant and is directly under Miss I-Iarvey's jurisdiction. The School Press, however, is not an integral part of South Side High School, for it belongs to the whole school system. It is here that all printed matter for the school city is turned out including tickets, programs, ribbons for winners in track and field events, questionnaires, courses of study, pamphlets, maps, numerous other supplies used by the teachers of Fort Wayne, and the three public high school weekly publications, namely, The South Side Times, The Northerner, and The Spotlight. All printing for the public libraries is also done here. The publications are the sole means of support of the School Press except for the salary of one employe, which is paid by the School Board. Before the School Press came into existence, press work for the school city was done at Central where the same hand-feed press now at South Side was then in use. Lack of linotypes proved to be the main mechan- ical defect of the Central Print Shop. All typesetting had to be done at three down-town typesetting shops which, in the course of time, con- solidated. The School Board found it economical to buy its own linotypes and to install the School Press, now one of the best and most complete shops of its kind in the country. The School Press may be considered lucky indeed to have such competent men and up-to-date equip- ment. Fred Schwartz, foreman, is the make-up man, Verne Ireland is the day-time linotype operator, Charles Nelson is the pressman, and George Venis holds the position of night man and linotype opera- tor. George Schwartz, '32, is the apprentice boy and general handy man of the shop. A list of some of the main pieces of equipment in the press room, in the order of their cost, includes a model 14 linotype with several auxiliary magazines of different-sized type, a model 5 linotype, a cylinder hand-feed press, one paper cutter, one Gordon Press, a punching machine, a stitcher, and a saw. In fact, about the only important piece of equip- ment in the possession of the big newspaper and not among the belongings of the School Press is an electric folder, the staffs of the three school papers consider ir almost a privilege to fold their papers once every week. The press room is kept open fifty-two weeks a year, but the time of its busiest activity is during the school year when the five employes keep up a near-perpetual sweat. In the first part of the week, the linotypes re- ceive the most uattentionf' The hand-feed press starts grinding out papers on Wednesday, first The South Side Times, and then The Northerner and The Spot- light later on in the week.

The team was built around Bob Willson, Bill Geyer, Don Powell, Gene Reiff, Bob Robinette, and Earl Stauffer, all of them veterans who were performing for South Side on the cinder path for their last and best year. In their first meet of the year, an indoor affair, the Archer thinlies traveled to South Bend where they met some classy competition but emerged with seven points. Marion and Central were the next Archer foes in an afternoon meet at the home stadium. The Green forced the Tigers to extend themselves, and Central won by only a small mar- gin, 50M to 44, while Marion was finishing a V Kendallville, South Whitley, and Elmhurst in its sec- ond Tuesday afternoon affair of the season. The Archers gained their initial win of the season with 72 points against 30 for Kendallville, their nearest com- petitor. South Side finished third in the N. E. I. C. night meet at the Northern field, in which the Redskins eked out a win over the Tigers. Geyeris record- breaking performance of 51.2 seconds in his surprise 440 win over Ormiston of North Side, was the feature of the meet. The Archers were doped to finish a poor third in the sectional meet at Garrett but totaled 33 points to Central's 31 and North Sideis 19.

TI-IE TOTEM o Needed - - - By MARTHA SUTER Vice-President Girls' Athletic Association The Girls' Athletic Association has been functioning with great success during these past twelve years. The increase in membership has been astounding, for 810 girls participated in sports during the first semester. During the first year there were one hundred par- ticipants. The G. A. A. has a goal to attain, that of making a place for every girl in school and to make every girl want to play. The law of the club is the law of sportsmanship, and, from this, the girls learn that to be good Ameri- cans, they must become strong and useful, so that they may be worthy of their nation. Therefore, they learn to play fair in order to increase their strength and courage. To start the year, tennis became prominent. The games were exciting and the contestants evenly matched. Betty I-larnish, freshman champ, defeated Bernadette Dygert, sophomore champ, Martha Baum- gartner, junior champ, defeated Mildred King, senior champ. The queen of tennis was crowned when Betty Harnish defeated Martha Baumgartner. LaDonna Eckart,s senior team and Sue Cameron's junior team tied for hockey honors, and Helen Kel- sey,s freshman team won the speedball championship. The volleyball title was tied for by Martha Suter's senior team, Sue Cameron's junior team, and Mary Martha I-Iobrock's sophomore team. The king of sports, basketball, again caught the eye of the G. A. A. Caroline Williams' senior team, Vera Fremionls junior team, and Marjorie I-Iower's sophomore team tied for the class championship. The honor tourney was won by Berneta McTntosh's junior team. They defeated the freshmen and the seniors, who had previously won from the sophomores, to gain the title. Eleanor Cupp, Lucille Sheets, Ida May Frazell, Ursula Morton, Phyllis Millar, Arleth Car- vin, Anna Brumbaugh, Shirley Woodruff, Vera Fre- mion, Florence McKeon, and Barbara Uran were members of the winning team.

Miss Patterson and Miss Smith are met yearly with a co-operation from the girls that is second only to their own concentration on the work toward making it a success. Over 500 girls were in the Grand March, which opened the exhibition. The activities of the department throughout the year were portrayed by the exhibition. There is another phase in the Association which has not been mentioned before, that of the Student Lead- ers. They aid in umpiring the inter-class games.

A. A. Skies Executive Board The officers who guided the club through an inter- esting and exciting year are president, LaDonna Eck- art, vice-president, Martha Suterg secretary, Eleanor Cupp, manager of sports, Martha Baumgartnerg sophomore representative, Marjorie Cartwright, fresh- man representative, Mildred Hoff, and Inter-Club Congress representative, Martha Suter. These ofii- cers were ably assisted by the advisers of G. A. A., Miss Alice Patterson and Miss Gretchen Smith, who are always willing and ready to do and make great suggestions for the cluh. Bottom Row: E. Cupp, L. Eckart, M. Hoff. Top Row: M. Suter, M. Baumgartner, M. Cartwright. Trees The G. A. A. played a small part in the Girls' Min- strel show. A plastic study was done to the accom- paniment of Joyce Kilmer's beautiful poem, Trees, from whence the dance gets its name. There were ten girls in the dance, and they worked in pairs. They wore long, flowing draperies in many variations of the shades of green. The girls looked lovely in the green and were much appreciated by the audience. - Tennis Champs A game enjoyed by all who play-tennis-the queen of summer sports. After playing through the hot summer on dusty courts, the girls enter into the school tennis tournament. Over fifty girls entered to battle for the title. Betty Harnish, freshman champ, defeated Bernadette Dygert, sophomore champ, Martha Baumgartner, junior champ, defeated Mildred King, senior champ. In the final game, Betty I-Iarnish was crowned the queen of South Side's tennis. Bottom Row: M. King, M. Ruhl, M. Hof. Top Row: B. Harnish, M. Baumgartner, V. Klopfenstein, R. Bevington, A. Disler. Speedball Champs The freshman sport, speedball, is the first major sport of the year. This game is played with a hall a trifle larger than the standard volleyball and much harder. Six teams averaging about fifteen on a squad were formed. Helen Kelsey was the captain of the winning team. Bottom Row: M. Funderhurg, A. M. Baumgartner, G. Danenfeldt, E. Disler, L. Heuer. Top Row: M. Meyer, D. Zaegel, H. Kelsey, Lahrman, B. Harnish, D. Sheele. M. Dickmeyer, M. M. Hobroclc, R. Certia. Hockey Hockey, the upperclass sport, was played in the fall. LaDonna Eckart's senior team and Sue Cameron's junior team tied for the championship, each team winning all games but one. There was one senior team, four junior teams, and six sophomore teams. More Sport Lumimzries Volleyball The games with a lot of push and return, volleyball, started the indoor G. A. A. season. There were two senior teams, seven junior, and ten sophomore teams. In the round-robin tournament, Martha Suterls senior squad, Sue Cameron's junior, and Mary Mar- tha I'lobrock's teams tied for volleyball honors. Left to right: D. Scheele, M. Dickmeyer, M. Hobrock, R. Certia. Tumbling Another feature of the Girls' Minstrel show was the tumbling. The curtain at the back of the stage was drawn aside where the tumblers were seen. Eleven girls dressed in white suits with green sashes made pyramids in perfect harmony. These girls worked in groups and built alternating pyramids with indiivdual stunts and movements. Soft music played during this performance. Ladder Dance The ladder dance was a novelty never before at- tempted by the dancing classes of South Side. It was hrst presented at the Boys' Minstrel Show. There were four ladders and two girls on each ladder. The girls wore summer formals which looked very nice beneath the soft lights. It was a series of acrobatic poses worked out to music. This dance was exceedingly difficult, for at times the girls were suspended in mid- air with no support except one hand. At other times they held themselves by their feet. It required a lot of practice but was lovely at the finish. Halloween Party The annual Halloween party was another success for the G. A. A. Many funny costumes were seen, and it was very difficult for the judges to pick out the win- ner. There was even a little Topsy amidst the girls that night. Following the grand march, Blanche Harp announced the program. A hockey song, tap dance, recitation, accordian and guitar selections were the features of the program. The refreshments were in charge of Vera Fremion, and all enjoyed the dancing at the close. Honor Basketball The king of winter sports, basketball, was the high light of the season. Class championships were decid- edg and from each class, honor teams named. The honor teams played in an evening tournament. The juniors and freshmen tangled first, next the seniors and sophomores, and finally the winners of each, the seniors and juniors. In a hard-fought game, the juniors came out on top by three points.

THE TOTEM There's 0 Dif-faculty With This Facult S By VERNON DeWITT Way baclc in 1922 there was a group of thirty-nine teachers on the faculty, all of whom struggled along and tried to teach without the necessary equipment. Rooms were provided with only make-shift desks and seats. For example, upon entering the chemistry lab- oratory, one could see nail lcegs with planks across them, which served as seats. The very numerous bottles of supplies could not be seen, as there was none. It was under this type of strain that the early faculty worked. Can anyone wonder why many of half of them them have greying hair? More than stayed through it, though, because, out of the original thirty-nine, we have twenty-two left. Those teachers who are still with us are the Misses Pittenger, Chapin, Demaree, Fiedler, 1-larvey, Miller, Ley, Mott, Paxton, Rinehart, and Thorne, and the Messrs. Chappell, Gilbert, Gould, Hull, Murch, Mur- phy, Null, Parks, Rothert, Voorhees, and Whelan. Very few changes have been made in the subjects these instructors taught at the beginning. Mr. Ward O. Gilbert, a three-letterman at Indiana University, taught physical education, but since that time has de- voted his teaching entirely to chemistry. Miss Pit- tenger was a teacher of English besides being dean of girls. She now devotes her entire time to the latter. Despite the noise and general rif-raf of construc- tion, a few extra-curricular activities were started in 1922. The members of the faculty took a very thor- Baclc Row: Parks, Wilsoim, Nlurch, Flint, Bex, 1-lull. Nliddle Row: Van Gorder, Oppelt, Harvey, Schmidt, Kiefer, Hodgson.

The first issue of The Times was one of the notable beginnings. On October 6, 1922, the four-page sheet of five columns was published with Ruth Wagner. first general manager, and Willis Carto, advertising manager. During the last eleven years, that publica- tion has grown until it is now exactly twice the size of the original paper. Miss Elizabeth Demaree organized the Philalethian Literary Society for the junior and senior girls who were interested in the better things in literature and social activities. It, under the leadership of Ruth Xxfagner, the first president, down to the present presi- dent, Patsy Beall, has held up its purpose to promote higher literature and friendship. To create and stimulate and maintain an interest in science and mathematicsn was the purpose of the Math-Science Club, which was formed immediately after the opening of the school. The teachers from both the mathematics and science departments served as advisers, but as the school progressed, some teach- ers found their abilities could be best directed to some other activity, so at the present time, four teachers of those departments, Mr. Elma Gould, Miss George Ann Hlodgson, Miss Adelaide Fiedler, and Mr. Lloyd Whelan, serve as advisers. The social work of the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. found expression in the extra-curricular activities of South Side in the form of the So-Si-Y, U. S. A., Senior 1-Ii-Y, and Junior Hi-Y. The So-Si-Y, a club for juniors and se- nior girls, was started to promote friendship be- tween high school girls, to foster school loyalty. and to strive for Chris- tian ideals. The U. S. A., a club of freshman and sophomore g i r 1 s, was formed with the same purpose in mind. The I-li-Y clubs were formed with the purpose of creat- ing and maintaining high standards of Christian living. Ar first, only a club for the junior and senior boys existed, but nine years later a club with at similar purpose 74 THE TOTEM was formed for the fresh- m a n a n d sophomore boys. Miss Mary Helen Ley started the Art Club to enable pupils who were not taking art but were interested in it to become better acquainted with it. Under the direction of Mr. Benjamin Null, the debating team defeated Richmond twice. The varsity debating team is the only one which does not exist to- day. The number of clubs has increased from eight to thirty. The present clubs and their faculty advisers are: Wranglers, Miss Benner, Airplane, Mr. Bex, Jun- ior Sunshine, Miss E. Crowe, Girls' Rifle, Miss DeLancey, Philo, Miss Demaree, Art, Miss Dochterman, Math-Science, Miss Fiedler, Mr. Whel- an, Mr. Gould, and Miss Hodgson, Lettermen and Inter-club Congress, Mr. Flint, 1500 and Booster, Miss Harvey, Kodak, Mr. Hull, U. S. A., Miss Kelley and Miss Mellen, So-Si-Y, Miss Miller, Miss Smeltz- ley, and Miss Woodward, Wo-Ho-Ma, Miss Mott, G. A. A., Miss Patterson, Meterite, Miss Peck, Sun- shine, Miss Rinehart, German, Miss Schmidt, Rifle, Mr. Sidell, G. A. A., Miss Smith, Torch, Mr. Sterner, Societas Romana, Miss Mellen, Miss Woodward, and Mr. Rothert, French, Miss Perkins, Junior-Math, Miss Paxton, Pebble Pups, Miss Thorne and Mr. Stout, Marionette, Miss Magley, Good Will, Miss Peck, Tn- dustrial Arts Foremen, Mr. Stout, Library, Miss Shoup, junior Hi-Y, Mr. Gilbert, Senior Hi-Y, Mr. Whelan, Radio, Mr. Sidell, and Travel, Miss Thorne. The number of faculty members is just about double the group which started out in 1922. The total num- ber that South Side now has on its faculty is sixty-four. Thirty of these are men and thirty-four are women. There are seven teachers of science, eight of social science, two art, fourteen English, six foreign language three manual training, three home economics, five com- mercial, four physical education, nine mathematics, one journalism, one public speaking, and one music teacher. It is through this very efficient staff that 1,921 students have graduated. The administrative and office force of South Side consists of a stag of four members, Mr. R. Nelson Snider, Miss Martha Pittenger, Miss Dorothy Alder- dice, and Miss Virginia Montgomery. Mr. Snider, principal, came to South Side in the fall 75 Back Row: Sidell, Rotliert, Gilbert, Gould, Heine, Voorhees. Middle Row: Kelley, Hemmer, Murphy, Furst, Chappell, Paxton, Thorne.

He received his early education at the Ball State Teachers College at Muncie and later acquired his M.A. degree at Columbia University. Besides being general supervisor of the school, Mr. Snider takes care of the strenuous task of schedule making. His favorite form of recreation is reading. Miss Pittenger came to South Side when it was built. She did her undergraduate work at Indiana University and received her B. A. degree at Colum- bia university. Some of Miss Pittenger's duties are supervision of social programs, taking care of extra- curricular activities, organizing of health work for the school doctor, and being dean of girls. Miss Pittenger also reads extensively. Miss Alderdice came here in 1930 after she had completed two years' work at Hoagland School. Miss Alderdice is a graduate of Central High School. Her work is taking care of files and records, renting of caps and gowns, selling of invitations, taking care of locker distribution, caring for money of clubs, and general ofhce work. Miss Montgomery was graduated from South Side in 1930, and the following year started to work for her alma mater. Miss Montgomery takes care of slip issuing, selling of new and used books, and selling of street car passes. Miss Montgomery's chief sport is bicycle riding. It is due to the unquenchable efforts of the faculty that so many varieties of subjects can be treated of in South Side. Any member of the faculty, if asked, would gladly take up the cause of a new club. ROBERT PARRISH, Editor History tells us the story of a Foun- tain of Youth. The waters from this fountain were reputed to bring ever- lasting youth to the drinker. The de- sire for such a discovery resulted in many expeditions all over the world. Even America was the goal of many explorers, the best known of whom is Ponce de Leon. But today we know there can be no such waters anywhere. However, there is something signifi- cant in these efforts to find a Fountain of Youth. These quests are not with- out their meaning. They are evidence of some intrinsic pleasure which youth, and youth alone, can give. In an effort to acquire this intangible and indescrib- able attraction which the period of adolescence holds for mankind, kings and queens have pawned their jewels. Also man has always been born with another desire. He likes to recall and reflect upon certain events which he considers worthy of remembering. This is true of every generation. Nearly two thousand years ago the greatest of all Roman poets wrote, Forsan et haec olim meminisse iuvabitf' And today a great many people keep diaries be- cause they, too, agree with Vergil that perhaps at some time it will be a pleasure to remember these things. Before the invention of the Guten- berg press, man had to rely upon his own memory to bring to him the pleas- ures of his earlier life. And some time along the line human minds falter and fail. Since, however, the art of print- ing has become so widespread and be- cause certain periodicals have been de- voted entirely to recalling the events of yesterday, we are sure of always having publications which bring back those happenings in which we played a part. Usually, however, books only men- tion events of national importance. And we must call upon our power of suggestion if we wish to get any per- sonal satisfaction. In is upon these humanly everyday characteristics that the publication of this Totem is based. We are proud of South Side! Our days here shall be among the most pleasant we will live. If, by glancing over the pages of a Totem, the reader recalls the pleasures of his school days at South Side, truly then, this Totem is a Fountain of Youth.

Verne Flint as faculty adviser, Chester Ensley as president, and Gordon fTubsl Straley as secretary-treasurer. The club boasts twenty-nine full fledged letter- men, who have earned their letters through days of work and fun on the gridiron, basketball court, or the cinder track. These members have engaged in various activities outside their sports throughout the year. The big affair was the Lettermenis Annual Archer Hop on December 9. Smaller activities were two private pot- lucks, the first being held in the fall in the Greeley Room, and the second being held in the track room in the spring. All the lettermen are hearty eat- ers fas one may imaginel. The Lettermen's Club at South Side has a reputa- tion of being one of the school,s most useful clubs, and it lived up to its reputation during this school year. It has placed several of its members in the halls as guards during the periods of the day, and E. Ginn, D. Powell, D. Zehr. Little Boys ' ' ' ' the lettermen participated in the annual dandelion fight on the school lawn. The club has further helped to better the school lawn by planting trees and shrubbery around the building. junior H i-Y By ROBERT RINEHART The Junior Hi-Y, organized in 1932 for the purpose of creating, maintaining, and extending throughout the school and community a high standard of Christian character, has gone far to- ward reaching this goal. The membership of the club has doubled since its founding. During the past year, Mr. Ward O. Gilbert has served as faculty adviser and Mr. E. K. Ackerman as the adviser from the Y. M. C. A. The officers who piloted the club through the fall term were: Gordon Straley, president, Elgain Stump, vice-presidentg Dick Schannen, secretary, and Newell Kellogg, treasurer. Spring term ofii- cers were: Robert Klopfenstein, presidentg Lloyd Grodrian, vice-president, Frank Montgomery, sec- retary,and Elgain Stump, treasurer. The leading service project of the Junior Hi-Y for the past year was the sponsoring of a cam- paign for the purpose of gathering old books to be sent to the unfortunate boys and girls at a min- ing camp in Shadyside, Ohio. All students were asked to donate old books for this purpose with the hope that the part taken by the club would Top Row: W. Bender, F. Forbing, D. Russell, M. Harrison, B. Adams, Bundy, W. Kozma, B.

Officers of the new club were: Robert Rinehart, presi- identg Leon Underwood, vice-president, Marguerite Blue, secretary, Betty Hull, Inter-club Congress rep- resentative, and Clayton Kilpatrick, sergeant-at-arms. Miss Emma Shoup is the faculty adviser. Members of this service club are assigned to work during the periods of the day. Such arduous tasks as carding, shelving books, clipping newspapers, and repairing old books are the routine of the work. The club members learn to do library work and to use a library successfully. The high school library has grown rapidly since its founding, having at that time only 1,104 books and 1,021 pamphlets. However, at the present time the total of books has risen to 5,284, and there are 1,843 pamphlets and 7,050 pictures. The Library Club members are eager to make as their main activity, the aiding of the student body in Back Row: R. Long, R. Schannen, C. Kilpatrick, B. Minier, L. Underwood, Clapper, E. Holtman, E.

This group was organized during the year of 1933-34 under the supervision of Miss Mabel Thorne, the only faculty adviser. The group was planned for the purposes of studying rocks and minerals, the beauty formed by them, and the economic conditions concerning them, and spend- ing leisure time profitably. Though a new and small organiaztion, much has already been accomplished. There are no restrictions about membership in the Pebble Pups. Any student from any class interested is admitted to membership. Also, any faculty member that wishes may attend meetings or join the club. Each member is expected to collect five worthwhile specimens a semester. At the end of this year, there are about fifteen regu- lar members. Before becoming a real member, a stu- dent must pass an examination based on a fourteen- page pamphlet. The Pebble Pups hold their meetings every other Thursday evening at 3:25 o'clock during the school year. As their first president the members chose Ellis Lochner. John Snyder, an alumnus of South Side, has aided in helping the club get started. Mr. Snyder has made a collection of rocks and minerals and has shown this 77 Back Row: Snider, Roth, F.

Bruoit. collection to the club and has given many interesting talks concerning it. Although they have just started, the Pebble Pups feel that they have accomplished much and are look- ing forward to a better and an even more worthwhile time next year. THE TOTEM Expert String Pullers ' The Marionettes By MILDRED REESE A Marionette Club has joined the ranks of South Side organizations. It was started about the last of March and was the original idea of Mildred Hoff, a sophomore. The purpose of this club is to study marionettes and the use of them, and to stage simple marionette plays. The officers of the club were Mil- dred Hoff, chairmang Mary Ann Fark, vice-chair- man: Emily Gardner, secretary-treasurer, and Don Sinish, Inter-club Congress member. The club presented its first play, Mr. Pickle-Nose, for the Sophomore Party. In this play the marion- ettes were manipulated by Mildred Hoff, John Bex, Don Sinish, Emily Gardner, and Mary Ann Fark. The marionettes were made by Mildred Hoff, La Verne Boyce, Ruth Eylanberg, and Mary Ann Fark. The stage for the play was built by Kenneth Scott, John Bex, Dick Russel, Myron Jones, and Williain Erics. Don Sinish helped to string the marionettes. The club intends to continue its work next year. As many students know nothing, or very little, about marionettes, a sketch of marionette history might prove helpful and interesting. Marionettes originated in Egypt. They were little carved figures of wood and ivory with limbs that could be made to move by pull- ing of strings. They were greatly treasured and Nl. Hoff, H. Kelsey, Miss Magley, L. Schannen, Bex, L. Boyce, H. Walbert, Charles Hart, B. Fries, D. Russell, M, Jones, M. A. Fark. were buried with ancient Egyptian kings and queens. The tradition is that they were worshipped as gods and that the priests pulled their strings so that their actions would frighten their people. Future Foremen ' From the I. A. F. By DARRELL GOOD The Industrial Arts Eoreman's Club, better known as the I. A. E. Club, is one of the newer organizations of the school. It was organized only last January, and for two main purposes. One purpose is to aid the industrial arts teachers in conducting oversize classes, the other is to aid in general repair work for the school. In helping the teachers, the student learns to be a leader. In doing general repair work, the future heads of homes learn many things that will be of help to them in later years. To become a member of this club a student must have had at least two years of industrial arts with a grade of B or better. The club meetings are held every other Monday in room 46. The club has grown in size from seventeen charter members to a present membership of twenty- one. Among other activities the club has taken tours through some of the larger industrial plants in Fort Wayne. On March 17, the club made tours of the Winter Street plant of the General Electric Company, and the National Handle Company. On April 7 the club visited the International Harvester Company. , t T' ,l ..., T tif-I S 4 es' s ' Q. 592: 3' ' sv' 1' Q it 0 . , 3, , w ffi ei i 3, Back Row: J. Beiger, Mr. Chappell, R. Fisher. P.

Bex of the industrial arts department. The purpose of the club is to teach the boys the mechanics of building and flying airplanes. The boys building planes must follow certain speci- fications, and a specific type of plane is featured at each contest. The contests are usually held in the gymnasium of one of the three high schools. The ranks awarded are groundsman, mechanics, pilot, and instructor. The boy ranking highest in the city con- tests is awarded the George Hill Memorial Trophy. This cup has been in the possession of the South Side Airplane Club most of the time. Eickmeyer and Baals of the South Side entrants, are the most consistent winners in the city contests, and Eiclcmeyer recently won sixth place in the National Contest with a pusher type plane. The club boasts of a membership of twenty-five, seventeen of whom are active in the club's worlc. The active members of the club are Paul Fairfield, Walter Kayser, Wayne Bender, Fred Sundsmo, Jack Rosen- berger, Jack Rehrer, Donald Baals, Dale Cutter, Hu- bert McEowen, Walter Howey, John De Young, John Jackson, William Crick, Eugene Fletcher, Donald Static ?

Radio Club By PAUL REYNOLDS Last fall a group of twenty-six eager lads formed a Radio Club under the supervision of Mr. Paul Sidell. The purpose of the club is to create a lceener interest in radio for practical use. Anyone joining the club cannot belong to more than two other clubs and must be at least a second-year student. The officers for this year are: Arthur Bailey, presi- dent, Russel Harruff, vice-president, Ed Ringenburg, secretary-treasurer, Bob Schriefer, program chairman. The club convenes every other Thursday. At the meetings, different members bring radio receivers and transmitters. They explain clearly how their apparatus works. Later, they intend to build a radio receiver and transmitter with club money. First, some of the mem- bers are going to learn the International Morse Code, the International Radio Laws, and the principles of radio in order to get an amateur license, which is re- quired to use a transmitter. Some of the boys have a good start and intend to apply for a license this summer. At several of the meetings, some of the boys brought their radio receivers to demonstrate their op- erations. Bob Schriefer brought a set that received stations in Spain, England, Germany, Italy, France, and countries in South America. 79 1 3 Back Row: H. Oliver, B. Long, B. Hebermehl, A. Bailey, D.

At one of the meetings, the boys brought two re- ceivers and two transmitters. They put them in difer- ent parts of the building and held conversations. This demonstration was also a part of the School Exhibit. THE TOTEM All of 'em for South Side By BETTY NoLL The Inter-club Congress of South Side High School is made up of representatives from each of the thirty school clubs. These representatives are elected by the various clubs which they represent either once or twice during the school year, depending on whether the various clubs have one or more than one election during this time. The meetings of the Inter-club Congress are held only whenever the adviser, Mr. A. Verne Flint, calls one. For the purpose of guiding the students' actions in and about school, the representatives of Inter-club Congress have adopted a Code of Citizenship which is as follows: As a student of South Side High School, I believe in upholding standards of good citi- zenship in and about the school. I believe that the good citizen is courteous, clean, and generous in co-operation. Tn carrying out this Code of Citizenship, the repre- sentatives have gone still further and have made a list of rules that should be observed by the students in the class room, at assemblies, at games, in the halls, in the cafeteria, and on the school grounds. The largest lists of rules are those having to do with the students' actions at games, in the cafeteria, and on the school grounds. Some of the rules are as follows: At the games, the students should refrain from booing and hissing because they are useless as well as rude and discourteousg good sportsmanship should be shown whether South Side is the winner or loser of a game, and respect should always be shown to the officials on and off the field or floor. There are also several important rules to be ob- served in the cafeteria, such as, cleanliness and good behavior on the part of the students as well as keep- ing the cafeteria looking neat and clean. Then, too, some of the rules to be observed on the school grounds are for students to keep the grounds clear of papers, to keep from marring the bark of trees or school prop- erty, to avoid blocking the walks and entrances, and to show school spirit by preventing other students who are careless about the beauty of the school and con- sideration of school property, from doing destruction. There are also several important rules to be ob- served in the class room, at assemblies, and in the halls. However, the most important of these are co-operating in recitation in the class room, being considerate of speakers of assemblies by refraining from talking, and by observing the traHic rules in the halls. As a fitting close to a year of usefulness, the Inter- club Congress sponsored a drive to clean up the school. This was in connection with the National Chamber of Commerce Clean-Up Week. To make the students conscious of the need of more neatness and Politicians predicted that grass would grow in the streets. We do not know anything about that. But here is the Inter-Club Congress taking care of the school yard. cleanliness around South Side, an assembly was held on Monday morning to start the ball rolling. For the remainder of the week the different home rooms ex- changed student speakers, Also the outside of the school was beautified by clubs which were designated to take the dandelions out of the yard. Along with these two events, the Inter-club Con- gress also put on an assembly in which the various ways in which students show lack of consideration at assemblies, in the school room, and like places, were demonstrated. In connection with the assembly, different commit- tees were appointed by Mr. Flint to take charge of the publicity for Clean Up Week.', A number of car- toons were collected from members of Miss Ley's art classes. These attracted a great deal of attention when they were posted all through the building, as were other posters made by pupils of Miss Dochterman. These drawings kept the campaign fresh in the minds of everyone. Graphs were made by the Social Science Club to show increases of property valuation brought about by attractive appearance. There is no club in South Side which is founded for the purpose of planting and caring for the Howers and trees around the school yard, and the members of the Inter-club Congress decided that this, among other things, could be their responsibility. This duty is not large enough to warrant the formation of a new group and can very easily be performed by the council in the spring and fall of every year. Many situations such as this will arise as the school grows, and taking care of these will prove suflicient to occupy the time of the elected members. 80 THE TOTEM As juniors The Class of 1934 Went Successfully Social Oriental and Ornament Q4 , I ' , The Junior Prom of the Class of 1934 Banquet and Prom Is Held One of the most enjoyable stops that the class of ,34 made in their four-year tour of South Side was the Junior Banquet and Prom. They were worked out with an Oriental theme. The banquet which preceded the Prom was held in the cafeteria. At this time a review of outstanding juniors and their marks of distinc- tion was read. The banqueteers then turned their thoughts to the future. A class prophet then told them about another list of juniors and what the future would hold for them. At eight-thirty the orchestra struck up a dance. The juniors and their guests danced in an Oriental garden among the fragrant smelling jasmine supplemented with flickering Japanese lanterns blowing to and fro in the evening breeze. Overhead the crepe paper of 81 The Banquet Scene By ROBERT PARRISH President Class of 1934 for Four Years pastel shades was drawn to a point in the middle of the floor, thus giving the effect of a Oriental summer house. In these surroundings the class of '34 spent some of its most delightful moments. At eleven- thirty the Cinderellas and Cinderellas' Fellows were called from their evening of pleasure and plunged once again into the general routine of school life, THE TOTEM Character . . .

These four attributes are required of those members of the Senior Class that are elected to the Promethean chapter of the National Honor Society, the highest honor that South Side can bestow upon a graduating senior. Character of the honored senior is based upon his high school record as the members of the faculty see it. His scholarship is based upon his four years' scholastic average. He must be in the upper third of the class. The leadership of the honor student comes as a result of his activities in the regular curri- cular and extra-curricular program of the school. Service means just what the word implies. The value of his service is measured by the work which he does for the school, his class, and the organizations to which he belongs. The members are elected during the last month of each semester, fifteen percent of the class being eligi- ble. On the day that they are tagged, an assembly is held at which time they are introduced individually to the student body by the principal. On May 17 of this year the annual National Honor banquet was held in the school cafeteria at which the honor stu- dents were feted by the members of the faculty. The parents, relatives, and friends of the members also attended this feast, making a total of two hundred ten people. Among the speakers of the evening were Merle Abbett, Mr. A. G. Burry, Herman O. Makey, 82 THE TOTEM Leadership . . . Service Upper right to lower left: E. Schwartz, E. Sieber, E. Snoolc, E, Spangle M. Suter, F. Suelzer, O. Swartz, L. Thompson, G. Thornton. P.

Nelson Sni- der, principal, acted as toastmaster. Miss Graham, an alumna member of the National Honor Society, welcomed the members of the class of '34 into the society. Evelyn Schwartz, member of the ,34 class, gave the response for the new members. Marie Butler, Hugo Winterrowd, John Dern, Eugene Craig, and Mr. A. G. Burry gave short talks on vari- ous characters typical of the four requisites of the National Honor Society. Prometheus, reviewed by Marie Butler, represented service, Abraham, leader- ship, King Alfred the Great, scholarship, and Lind- bergh, character. These men of historical prominence were reviewed by Hugo Winterrowd, john Dern and 83 Eugene Craig, and Mr. A. G. Burry, respectively. Merle Abbett, superintendent of public schools, spoke on The Sun Dialf, Mr. Makey closed the speaking activities of the evening with a short address on The Sands of Lifef' The theme of the entire pro- gram was time. The festivities of the evening were brought to a close when everyone joined in on Yes- terday, Today, and Tomorrow, the school song. This is the fifth year of the existence of the society at South Side. In that time it has amassed nearly two hundred fifty members. In the same five years approx- imately thirteen hundred students have graduated. The committee of the faculty which elects the members are Earl Murch, Herbert S. Voorhees, Mabel Thorne, Gertrude Oppelt, and Herman O. Makey, chairman. Seniors Who Stand ut ByJOHNBROWN Totem Co-Business Manager The highest honor that any student receives from South Side is being named the valedic- torian or salutatorian of his graduating class. This has been cleverly shown by the lay-out on these pages. Ar the top of the pyramid are Roberta Garton and Eugene Craig. The former earned a nearly perfect average for her four year's work, out of a possible 98 per- centage, she garnered a grade of 97.85. Next down the list is pictured a scene from the senior play, Charm. Upon this vehicle sixteen members of the senior class traveled a road which terminated with a most suc- cessful production. john Brown, Alice Burry, Edith Spangle, Ernest Williams, and Patsy Beall carried the important roles. Miss Marjorie Suter directed the senior play. The base of the pyramid on this page, which is symbolic of the important part they play in the entire structure of the senior class, belongs to the senior oflicers and the class advisers. Figuratively, they are at the bottom of every- thing. Chosen to lead the class through their final year was President Bob Parrish, who has held this position four years. Assisting him were Barbara Haven, vice-presiclentg Jim Menefee, secretary, Roberta Garton, Caroline Williams, and Eugene Craig, members of the social council. For the first time in the history of the school all the senior officers were members of the Na- tional Honor Society. Adelaide Fiedler and H. Chappell served as the class advisers. This is the set-up of the senior class. However, many promi- nent activities of the school were led by members of the senior class. In the musical comedy, I-linlcey Doodle Town, Homer Hire distinguished himself in the lead as the handsome city sliclcer. Kenneth Monesmith did a goodly bit of yocleling to put the same show over. Ruth Ann Larimote attained acclaim in the Girls, Minstrel Show, and Louie Groh in the Boys'. Paul Trey made these shows a financial success by his excellent work as ticket chairman. Howard Smith made a name for himself in public speaking activities by winning the Semi- annual Extemporaneous Contest and the South Side division of the State Discussion meet, and by placing second in the county confab. In the field of athletics the class of '34 proved itself to be a reservoir of material. Coaches of both major sports drew many of their players from this class. Many seniors answered Coach Welborn's call for football material. Powell, Reiff, Miller, Carter, Bligh, Roop, Robinette, Ensley, Geyer, and Fyock represented this class Top: The valedictorian, R o b e r t a Garton. Center: A scene from the senior play, Charm. Bottom: The better half of the senior bosses: Caroline Williams, Roberta Gar- ton, Barbara Haven, and H. Chappell. ,r Leaders of the Class of '34 on the first eleven. Two of these, Don Powell and Chet Ensley, were placed on All-State teams which were picked by an Indianapolis sports writer. Seniors were also prominent in basketball. Menefee, Geyer, Powell, and Smith were members of the graduating class who played exceptionally well under the tutelage of Coach McClure. As a reward for combining their athletic ability with an exceptional high scholastic average, athletes of South Side are eligible for the National Athletic Honor Society. Menefee, Carter, Ensley, Fyock, R. Miller, Reiff, and Robinette were awarded member- ship to this coveted society. Senior Week proved to be a fitting close to the many honors and distinc- tions that were awarded members of this class. Certainly that last week for the seniors was one of the most pleasant ever enjoyed by any class. The Fun Fest, Baccalaureate, Senior Dance, and Commencement provided the seniors with an everlasting memory of a certain building in the 3500 Block on South Calhoun Street. The sobriety and seriousness of being graduated was broken for a night by the Fun Fest. At this performance graduates, parents of graduates, and faculty members presented humorous skits. Ir was here that the faculty members got down from their dignified position to enact various scenes that were inspired by some antics of the class of '34. The graduates then took the stage and told some interesting facts about their teachers. The Baccalaureate was staged at the Shrine Auditorium on the night following the Fun Fest. The seniors filed in at 7:30 o'clock. The sermon of the evening was delivered by the Rev. Paul Krauss before a filled auditorium. R. Nelson Snider read the Scripture lesson for the evening. As the services ended, the Rev. Mr. Krauss conveyed a personal message to the seniors, during which period the entire class arose and re- mained standing. Next came the senior dance, which was carried out by an Alice in Wonderland,, theme. This elaborate occasion was attended by approximately one hundred fifty couples. For many, this was their last school social activity, and, to use a slang expression, they went to townf, The final touches of the finished class of '34 were applied by the Commencement speaker, Judge Millington. The speaker told of changes taking place that would aifect the graduate. ' 4 X i .I 1 ' 5 Top: The salutatorian of our scowl days. K Center: Matt Garfield's drug store a scene from Charm.
