The members are chosen by the following method: First, the candidate's eligibility is ascertained. The record of his sophomore, junior and first semester senior grades must average an S, 2.8 points at the minimum. His record must be free of F'sg he must have participated in school activitiesg and his characteremust be recommended by the faculty. The average of his scholarship is obtained by substituting a number for each grade. Thus, an E counts 45 S, 3g M, 2, and an I, 1. The sum of these grades is divided by the total number of grades. Credits for gym and R. O. T. C. are not accepted. The points given for activities depend on the responsibility involved and the effort and integrity entailed. A gold medal winner, for instance, has .3 points added to his recordg a president of a literary society, .2 pointsg a person who has been neither tardy nor absent, .l point. On the other hand, .1 is deducted for every five tardies. This year forty-four members of the class of 1932 have attained the distinction of membership in the Southwest chapter of the society. Its keystone is symbolized by Scholarship, Character, Leadership, and Service. 1932 Members Laurence Burd Betsy Anderson Albert Thomson Caroline Brink Barrv Oinundson Clark Duncan Van Viot Alan Wells Frances Ferguson Addison Shepherd Mary Cornelia Douglas Virginia.Duffield Nancy Culbertson Miriam MacMurray Theodore Smith Evelyn Wagner Marian Sigler Frank Prins Tom Hurst Helen Schultz Alden Wells Mary Pierson Frances Byers Charles Wager Dorothy Green jean Luce Carrol Mickey Isabel Robins Margaret Zurn Margaret Gunn Helen O'Connor Carol VVhite Frances Cravens Dorothy Rotenhagen Della VVillson Fred Brady Lester Rector Dorothy Jeter Eleanor Graham Betty Belle Estes John Pritchard Avanell Bushmeyer Mary Lou Hill Frank Ross 61 THE ACHEM Top Rowq Kenyon, Hayden, Bmfd, Robertson, Green, W'ells.

In the city-wide Jefferson Essay Contest all three medals were won by them: John Phillips, a junior, won the gold medal with his essay, Thomas Jefferson and Religious Toleration , Beverly Brooks Smith, a sophomore, the silver medal with Thomas Jefferson and Religious Freedom , and Carroll Mickey, a senior, the bronze medal with 'Thomas Jefferson and Religious Tolerationf' In the George Washington Essay Contest sponsored by the Sons of the American Revolu- tion, Frances Wright, a senior, won the gold medal, and Dorothy Diemer, a freshman, honorable mention, both on the subject, George Washington, the Patriot. Last summer in the state music contest held at Sedalia, Gerald Lindsey and John Phillips won first place and second place, respectively, in violin. In athletics, Henry Jost and Albert Thomson starred by being chosen tackles on the Interscholastic League all-Star team. Among the many contestants in the Vllashington Tree Poster Contest conducted in the Miqldle West, Fred James, a senior, placed third, Terry Lilly, a sophomore, fourth, and Donald Freeman, a senior, and Dick Sloan, a sophomore, received honorable mention. In the Washingtoxl Bicentennial Poster Contest of the city, Adelaide Gmeinder, a junior, received honorable mention. The results of the National Art Contest held at Pittsburg have not yet been received. The following entries were selected from the art classes of Southwest to be sent to this contest, pen and ink illustration, Donald Freeman, pencil Outdoor Sketch, Fred James,-lettering, Virginia Duffield, etchlings, Frances Vllright, AAdelaide Youugren, and Doris Mischlichg ink drawing, Adelaide Gmemder, design, Ruth Olson. Before the close of the school year, no doubt, many more Southwest students will join those listed above in E1Cl116V1llg' unusual honors. 65 THE ACHEM Achievements of Former Students Since the beginning of the history of Southwest in the fall of 1925 there have been many students who, either before or after graduation, have attained high honors, and a few who have attained even national or international recognition. Not all of these achievements have come to the attention of the members of the Sachem staff, so it is possible to give here only a partially complete record. Because their work has been either national or international in scope, we shall place at the head of this group Ben Swofford, '29, who won first place in the National Oratori- cal Contest while a senior at Southwest and seventh place in the International Oratorical Contest the following summer, Elliot Norquist, '28, who the preceding year placed second in the same national contest, VVilber Coen, Jr., '28, internationally known as a member of the Davis Cup Team, and at present captain and coach of the tennis team at Kansas University, james Green, '28, who last summer was the only student representative of the Inter-Collegiate Disarmament Council of America and a similar student movement of Great Britain at the World Disarmament Conference at Geneva, Switzerland, and was one of the two students privileged to speak before the assembled Conference, and Mary Greef, '27, a former member of the Wightman Cup Team, who during the past three years has had a national ranking among women tennis players of sixth, ninth, and fifth. Next in order we shall place that larger group of scholarship winners leadby Fowler Hamilton and Carl B. Allendoerfer, of '27, who this year have both been awarded the highly prized Rhodes scholarships to Oxford, Fowler being a candidate from Missouri University and Carl from Haverford. University, Haverford, Pennsylvania. Carl had previously won three cooperation scholarships at Haverford. While a senior at South- west, Paul Sturm, '29, distinguished himself by winning the four year Finnell scholarship to Yale. Omitting the long list of other scholarships awarded to Southwest seniors before last year, we here record those awarded then: Catherine Hensley, Vassarg Stanley Smith, Harvard, Barbara Hirsch, Lindenwoodg Charles Shubart, Washington University, Helen Mae Bean, Christian College, Dorothy Lobb, Wellesley. A 'From the various colleges come reports of scholastic work well done and of honors won during this Year. Ursula Genung, '30, who won the gold medal for poetry in the Inter-Society Literary Contest of that year, placed second this winter at Missouri Uni- versity in the Mahan Poetry Contest. Marie VVatcher, '30, is president of the Pan- Hellenic organization and vice-president of the sophomore class at Kansas University. Walter Everly and Radford Davis, both of '31, ranked first and second respectively in scholastic standing at Wentworth Military Academy. Lynn White, also of '31, ranked second among the students of Junior College. Recently Samuel Ott, '28, was appointed editor of the 1933 Hovvitzer, the VVest Point annual, and Fern Allport, Edward Wilkie, and Stanley Jacobs, all of '31, were elected to the staff of the 1933 Savitar, the M. U. annual. In athletics former Southwest lettermen are holding their own. Jimmy Zinn and Charlie Henry of '29 starred on the basketball squad at Missouri University this year. Jimmy had a steady berth at forward, while Charlie was listed as guard on the all-state second team. Lawrence t Tubby j Singer, '31, was high point man on the M. U. fresh- man basketball squad, while Tubby, Johnny Miller, Pat Murray, and Bill Chorn were all on the freshman football squad. Southwest may well be proud and is proud of these former students, who in achiev- ing honor for themselves are bringing fame to her. 66 WP SALMON - l 1:52 jx Z O iii fr V W-:xl 43 fxvx A- n 'X Qoq' Q K s T g a ?f3CL , C 6 1 E IN 1 I 3. v lf?

First it was civil strife in Kansas, the Dred Scott case, and so on ,til by 1860 Northern industries and conviction faced Southern cotton and pride. The American ahhorence of unjustified oppression had strayed to the field of narrow inindedness and greed.

VVar, against the most formidable and thorough- ly prepared militaristic nation of which history gives account, the German Em- pire. America, gravely aware of the respon- sibilities which she had assumed upon en- tering the World War, fixed a discerning eye upon her military leaders to select one whose character was of sufficient caliber to cope adequately with such a gigantic task, a task which would fray the moral fibers of any but the strongest and noblest of men. The man to whom the United States entrusted the saving of the precarious position, the man who needs must culminate the war in a glor- ious victory, was John I. Pershing. Pershing's problems were tremendous and wellnigh overwhelming. To him was assigned the Herculean task of or- ganizing and assembling a modern army of three million men with merely our inadequate regular army as a skeleton. A staff must be selected. ln this regard, his intuitive ability to judge and handle men was an invaluable asset and a factor of supreme importance. The various com- ponent branches of the army must be co- ordinated. Plans and arrangements must be developed for a base of operations, warehouses, cantonmcnts and hospitals. Railroads, communications must be estab- lished, and numerous things provided which were indispensible to the welfare and very existence of the American sol- dier. Anxiously the Allies awaited his coming. VVhat did they find on his arrival? They found a forceful, vigorous man, physi- 74 cally tough and morally hard, A deliber- ate, calculating and decisive brain, whose decisions were invariably and inflexibly just. A formality and precision of method, a quiet dignity which discour- aged familiarity. A figure to command respect rather than affection. Such a man was Pershing, a Colossus, brilliant and capable, whose dynamic virile spirit animated his men to the accomplishment of their purpose. i At first there was friction between this uncompromising VVestern and the suave though equally determined foreign states- men who attempted to dominate the American Staff. Pershing's tenacity of purpose and his illimitable moral courage successfully sustained his American prin- ciples and standards. He insisted that the United States should not lose her national identity and was determined that her troops should be led into battle under their own beloved stars and stripes. With the collapse of the German Em- pire, Pershing completed his work. As for his achievement, it is sufficient to say that there was perhaps no other man who would or could have built the American army on the scale he planned. And with- out that army the war could not have been won. Gently and unobtrusively this heroic fig- ure has withdrawn from public life, un- willing to contaminate that unsullied career by exercising his tremendous prestige to secure political office or per- sonal wealth. His genius lies in his trans- cendent capacity for taking trouble. VVe hail him not as an exponent of war, but as an exponent of an efficiency which mininized death. He leaves the priceless heritage of a noble patriotic life, devoted to the service of his country. THE ACHEM riental Rugs By FRANci:s NVRIGHT O Proplicff I pczsscd flzrouglz a tt'i00d afnd heard H10 'Voices of the young birds and I fooik and fmt them into my rarfwf, and their nzoflicz' came flllffl'l'1il1g aroiuzd -my l1caa'.' All that the Persian saw, all that he felt, and all that he thought made his rug. His fiery, intensive nature was so conducive to passionate, artistic expression that his life was poetry-poetry which he unconsciously wove into his carpet. Thus from the depths of its silken sheen were reflected the brown mud walls baked in the sun, above them rising the blue of the minarets and domes-bluer, yet toning with blue skies-flowers in a cool garden, nightingales singing, roses, perfume, the tramp of the caravan, the clash of battle, the mirage, the dervish, the dancing girl, the smell of sandalwood, and the faithful bowed in prayer. The intense colorings surrounding the rugmaker made him associate each color with the most subtle shades of meaning. Throughout the Orient, a definite symbol- ism came to be generally accepted. Red meant bloodshed, and, strangely enough, it also meant joy, truth, virtue, and sin- cerity. Wliite denoted innocence of soul, purity of thought, holiness of life. Purple, the sign of imperial power, meant royalty. Blue symbolized the air. Orange was the color for sorrow. Green stood for joy, happiness, and life. Rose was the divine color. Black, suggestive of material darkness and gloom, was symbolical of spiritual darkness of soul. Through this svmbolism of color. these Rembrandts of the East - have depicted the life and emo- tions of the people. On his canvas the carpet-weaver artist illustrated a bright, joyous story, a mel- ancholy story, a story of superb beauty and ecstasy, or a mellow story fraught with ineaning-embodying the religions, traditions, and spirit of their poetryand legends. Sometimes the weaver modified the story, handed down in song, as a bereavement, a marriage, or a move from town to desert unconsciously caused a change in selection of color. Sometimes the irregularity in design was the inten- tional work of a devout Mohammedan who believed that nothing but Allah should be perfect. Among the general symbols used were the lock of human hair, as a love mes- sage: a few tufts of unclipped nap. which brought good luck: and a bead which guarded against the evil eye. The tree of life and a huge flower garden, suggestive of Paradise, were the most commonly used designs. Quotations from the Ko- ran or verses of some famous Eastern poet were frequently inscribed on the prayer rug. Of the messages conveyed through more specific designs there were great numbers. The beads of a rosary, being in a circle, symbolized the everlasting con- tinuity of time. A popular border de- sign, a series of crabs with their claws extended, was found especially in the Kozaks. The Mir, consisting of small, rectilinear flowers connected by a wav- ing vine, was a standard Saraband design which has never been seen in other car- pets. A sunburst was a common design in Shirvans and in Kozaks. The Persian coat of arms, which consisted of a lion holding an uplifted sword in the right paw with his back toward a rising sun, symbolized the absolute power of Persian rulers. Most famous of all the designs was the pear, also known by a number of other names. It varied greatly in size and form. Some say it was an emblem of im- mortality, some say a symbol of victory. Others believe it represented the crown jewels, and many believe it to be the print of a closed hand after it had been dipped in blood. It often covered the whole field in the Saraband, Shiraz, and Herat. Like all vital art, this weaving was the outgrowth of necessity rather than of a conscious effort to create something merely ornamental. To keep down the dust which arose from the floors of the isolated mud hut, these fabrics of sheep's wool or goat's hair were woven. Outside the hut there was always to be found a wooden frame consisting of four poles. To the upper and lower poles warp threads were attached and drawn taut. Across and back, over and under alter- nate warn threads, wool threads were thrown. One knot was tied horizontally to every two adjacent warp threads. These knots served to identify rugs. The two types of knots, the Senna and the Ghiordes, were characteristic of the Per- sian and Turkish weaves, respectively. The number of knots to the smiare inch ranged from ten to one thousand. 75 THEA ACHEM Near the frame were large pans of vegetable dyes. The sheen and lasting colors of the antiques are due to the knowledge of the nomads and to their skill in extracting dyes-red from insects, madder roots, and sheep's blood, blue from indigo and madder, green from buckthorn, yellow from berries and sumac roots, and purple from shellfish. After many years of weaving, the rug was placed on the earth floor. Bare feet, grinding in the lime, and the strong tropi- cal sunlight toned it until little ends of wool became delicate points which caught light to send forth a sheen deeper than that of silk. The woven fabric later came to serve not only as a floor covering but as tables, chairs, beds, pillows, portieres. Among the more interesting rugs were the hearth rug, the altar cloth, the grave rug, the dowry rug which a young girl wove and presented to her future husband, and the prayer rug. The beauty and significance of the prayer rug, which every Moham- medan always carried, made it the most interesting of Oriental carpets. A rep- resentation of a local mosque at one end was called the niche. With the niche toward Mecca, the worshiper knelt on it and touched his head to the ground. The weaver's rug, besides being indis- pensable as furniture, was his poetry, his music, his expression of finer feeling. It was an art, peculiar to itself, full of sym- bolism, radiant with color, replete with fancy, embodying in its weird and in- finite designs the mysticism of Islam, and shedding warm sunshine of the tropics from its innumerable, strangely-blended hues. In the Cluny museum there are Oriental rugs of the most exquisite patterns and hues. In them you will see the mystery and the sensual beauty of the East, the roses of Hafiz, and the wine cup of Omar, but presently you will see more .... As the weaver elaborated his pattern for no end but the pleasure of his aesthetic sense, so might a man live his life-so might a man look at his life, that it made a pat- tern .... Gut of the manifold events of his life, his deeds, his feelings, his thoughts, he might make a design, reg- ular, elaborate, complicated, or beautiful . . . On the vast warp of life, even with a background of a philosophy that life has no meaning and that nothing is impor- tant, a man might, yet, get a personal sat- isfaction in selecting the various strands that work out the pattern. There is one pattern, the most obvious, perfect, and beautiful, in which a man is born, grows to manhood, marries, produces children, toils for his bread, and dies, but there are others, intricate and wonderful, in which happiness does not enter and in which success is not attempted, and in them might be discovered a more troubling grace. The weaver, passionately fond of his rug-putting the best of his workmanship into it, deviating from the tribal pattern- had this in mind perhaps and fashioned his life as he wove his rug. Safe in the frame his art has brought him, he can Wend now his way with brow serene, Fear not his humble tale to tell: The whispers of the desert wind, The tinkling of the camel's bellf' Spring Phantasm By MARGARET ZUR-N The cherry tree shouded in shadowy white Is the wistful bride of the silvery night, With a filmy train of drifted bloom, Standing softly etched in the scented gloom. A breath of breeze and the petals fall, Tremulously like snowflakes small, And the fragile lace of the bride's white train Is formed by the petals that fall in a rain To rest on the dew of the grassy floor, Like tiny pearl shells on a starlit shore. The sweet incense of the fragrant air, That is redolent of the springtime fair, Breathes wishes of joy from the whole world wide To the misty night and his lovely bride. 76 THE ACHEM ittle Lonely C By GENEVIEVE RANIJALI, 'Christmas Eve! The whole city was vibrating with the muffled beat of mil- lions of hearts. Christmas Eve! The snow was falling softly on the roofs of buildings, like a hand laid softly in bless- ing on the head of an erring son. Those mountainous structures, their ghastly grey shapes penetrating the boundless sphere above, were casting shadows into the val- leys at their feet. Down in those depths slender ribbons of shiny, black furrows crossed and recrossed, as fleeing vehicles darted over asphalt lanes. Sidewalks were covered with an armor of ice, color- less, cold, and glittering. Street lamps shedding sickly shafts of light, failed to force into obscurity the gleaming holly leaves which decorated the posts, and clung there like a vine. Below this feeble flame, sleek shiny-hooded cars slid quickly by, their occupants immune to the cold and dreariness without, and protected from its forlorness by an absolute ignor- ance of its cruelities and revenges. Mellow lights, seeping from out windows of homes overflowing with love and laughter, shed a revealing spotlight on the passers- by. Men, women, and children passed on in a never ending torrent, each second bringing a new face, a new personality, a new hope, a new fear. Some gaily faced the wind, which resisted fiercely those who had the impudence to doubt its su- preme powerg some plodded wearily and dispairingly against the unfriendly ele- ment, their threadbare clothing held tightly to them by numbed fingers. Many were the people that passed this evening down a street situated in the cen- ter of this pulsing metropolis. Many there were who failed to see the little flower-girl. She was just a slip of humani- ty of some ten winters, standing there on the corner, thrusting her little handful of flowers upward, and mutely questioning prospective buyers with large, wistful eyes, wherein lay mirrored a summer's sky. Presently, a gentleman, well-groomed, and with an unmistakable mein of pros- perity, approached the flower girl, stood for a moment gazing contemplatively at her, reached in his pocket, withdrew from it a crisp dollar bill, placed it in the child's hand, took the flowers and de- parted. He looked at the common little bouquet in his hand, so shabby next his expensive coat. Yet, he mused, they are as pensive and as sweet as the little flower-girl herself. Pausing a moment, he smelled of their timid fragrance, but in an instance he tossed them heedlessly into the gutter, to be broken and bruised by careless feet. The little flower-girl's gaze was rapt upon the bill lying in her palm. Her hungry eyes became caressing as she fingered the bill gently. Oh! What joys money could bring! She could now buy that tantalizing pair of shiny patent- leather slippers, which, through the plate- glass windows of Murdock's Department Store, she had devoured so longingly for the past two weeks. Huldy would scold, beat, and swear at her, but the hurt would be healed by the knowledge of those precious 1 oh, so precious slippers, and her feelings would be soothed by visions of herself treading over acres and acres of freezing side- walks. Her bearing became alert, and she clasped the bill tensely in her small fist and her eyes lared defiantl at the ' y gl y world, as if she challenged anyone to take the money from her. She darted dexterously through the crowds, making her feverish way to the Dept. Store. Now she was passing be- tween rows of fragrant, clean-smelling Christmas trees which lined the walk. Standing before one of these, was a woman who had two children with her. They were pulling at her skirts, and hop- ping about enthusiastically, while the woman regarded them in a beaming, motherly sort of way. She smiled proudly when her youngest offspring assumed a business-like demeanor and earnestly bar- tered with the merchant. The little flower-girl stopped, and her eyes smiled. Maybe, she whispered softly to herself, Maybe, ef I tuck ta hum a Christmas tree, Huldy might like me a speck more, and she might, she continue her voice gaining volume as her hopes dared to soar, she might kiss me oncet like other ma's do. I das'nt be a-carin' for thim shoes so vury bad, enyhowf' And her mouth quivered for a brief mo- ment, but slowly curved into a hopeful smile when the tree merchant approached her. She found a tree about her heightg a beautifully formed, fresh smelling cedar that stretched emerald arms toward her lovingly. Ain't it purty! she murmured softly. The merchant, seeing the bill clenched 77 THE ACHEM firmly in her hand, and her evident ad- miration of the tree, magnanimously of- fered it for just a dollar. She hesitated not an instant, and held out the beloved bill, which was greedily snatched by the man, as he winked slyly at some of his fellow clerks, and chuckled inwardly at his clevernessf The little girl wrapped her arms, as best she could, about the tree, and slowly made a wavering progress up the crowded street. She held the tree tightly against her, bravely protecting it from destruction by the reckless onslaught of flighty, scat- ter-brained individuals. She did not mind the discomfiture of having needles prick her skin, or having to pick her way about, as with aching arms, she held the tree away from her face as much as pos- sible so that she could see. Before a squalid tenement house, she descended the broken stone steps leading to a basement room-her home. After giving the door a kick, she stepped for- ward into the dusky dampness, wherein sat a woman, sullen, coarse, hard-fea- tured. Huldy saw the slim figure of the girl, with tangled curls hanging half- way down her back, silhouetted in the doorway, standing straight and tall as the tree beside her. Two of a kind, thought I-Iuldyu re- sentfully. And because she had always been jeal- ous of the girl's beauty and ideals, she rose and gave her a resounding slap on the mouth with the back of her bony hand. , l'Ya little fool! Whar didja git the money ta buy that thar tree? How dare ye, she shrieked, fgo spendin' our livin' money for yore foolish notions? She advanced with upraised arm toward the girl, but lowered it to steady herself as she reeled and fell heavily against the bare, rough-board table. But she con- tinued to curse and rave, and her coarse voice rose until its rasping dissonance filled the room. The girl loosened her hold of the tree, and it fell at Huldy's feet. She walked toward a dark corner in the far side of the room and dropped listlessly on the lumpy, cotton blan-ket that felt cold and clammy even to her numbed fingers. She lay huddled in a little knot, and two large tears slipped out from under tight-closed lids and crept down the girl's cheeks. She was alone, so alone. Poor Little Lonely! 78 The hot tears fell softly on the blanket, sending forth an opalescent gleam in the- half-light. Her throat ached, her heart throbbed dullyg she was miserable, physically and mentally. She hated her home, if such it could be called. Her natural instincts made her shrink from its grime and sordidness. The slovenliness of Huldy repelled and distressed her. Little Lonely glanced at her, the woman, scornful and indifferent, who had ruled her with an in- credible harshness and tyranny. Huldy was hunched over the table with her head on her arm. Her hand hung limply at her side, swinging to and fro to the monotonous chant she was endeavoring to produce, in a voice that rasped loudly one minute, and cracked suddenly to'a coarse whisper the next. Rebellion awoke in Little Lonely's heart, and angry blood raced through her body, warming her and giving her cour- age. She was infuriated and disgusted- terribly disgusted, with Huldy. The air seemed suddenly close and' ill-smelling. She scrambled up and ran blindly for the door. The cool air was inviting, and she ran out into the night. Little Lonely ran heedlessly through the eerie darkness, moaning passionately, Why ain't I got a maw like most girls has got? Why? Why? Her steps slowed perceptibly after her senses recovered their normal passiveness. Finally, she stumbled down the street a lagging gait, and her feet seemed so burdensome! Only her stubborn persist- ence kept her from sinking in the road. But she could not return to the cheerless and unwelcoming basement room. She wandered on, indifferently. Many hours later, cold to the point of numbness, and with tears frozen on her cheeks and eyelashes, she found herself in a park, confronted by a massive statue. A statute of a woman. Little Lonely saw the noble outline of the woman's head, and peering more intently, the girl dis- covered the finely-chiseled features ser- ene, benign, tender. Little Lonely stood reverently before the white marble statue mutely worshipping with strangely happy eves. They found her next morning. She was seated in the lap of the statue, snuggled into the curve of the Woman's arm, and her little cold, lifeless, white marble hand clung lovingly to another cold, lifeless, white marble hand . . . She had found her mother! THE ACHEM Kumar Cigf Sfdfif Oraforical Canter! Washington and The Constitution By JOHN MILTON PHILLIPS The Bible says: Where there is no vision the people perish. Never did a nobler vision inspire man than on that summer morn when George VVashington unsheathed for independence the sword which proclaimed the birth of the American nation. In the momentary flash of that sword there were reviewed 700 years of Anglo-Saxon strife for the rights of man. There was reviewed that passion for liberty which moved the sturdy English to conquer ia wilderness, that devotion to the principles of self-government which colonial experience had wrought, that indomitable will which emboldened each ragged patriot to uphold these ideals in the thunder of cannon at Bunker Hill and on the frozen snows of Valley Forge. As a leader of the Revolution, VVashington achieved for Americans of all times the opportunity of living under a free and independent government, Hderiving its just powers from the consent of the governed. His was the leadership which welded the colonies into the first semblance of a union. Yet with unfailing insight VVashington saw the inadequacy of the bonds uniting the new nationg he saw the weaknesses of a loose confederation of states. It was by his tireless efforts, his power to sway men that there finally met in 1787 the most illustrious assemblage-The Framers of our Constitution. Again Washiiigtoii was the one man indispensable to his country. His was the intellect which conceived the Constitutional Convention, his was the determining voice in every crisis of its conflict, his the candid spirit which prevailed over the prejudices of its delegates, and his the unwavering confi- dence of the people necessary to the inception of its product. On every page of the Constitution VVashington's grasp of governmental problems, his devotion to liberty and self-government, his zeal for an indissoluble union of states, are written large. Under his guidance there was developed from older institutions, a colossal work, embodying the highest ideals of liberty, equality, and justice-The Constitution of the United States. But to rear the well-proportioned structure of national government on the firm foundation of the Constitution was the supreme destiny of Washington. He knew that the salvation of his country lay in national unity: guided by this conception he vitahzed the principles of the Constitution, its representative system, its dual form, its limitation of powers, its Supreme Court. As the very basis of his national policy Washington placed tolerance, enlightenment, and liberty under the law. The American Commonwealth was founded on the purity, integrity and magnanimity of VVashington's character. The vision of the mighty American nation of today became the very essence of VVashington's life-the embedded strength of the new republic. My fellow countrymen, we today receive this government, polished by the wisdom of our sages and hallowed by the blood of our heroes! VVe must pledge ourselves to cherish it, uphold it, and defend it! VVe must heed the ever-present influence of Wash- ington who founded it. The mystic chords of his potent spirit, Welling from every Revolutionary battlefield, every Constitutional landmark, still swell the chorus of true Americanism. The name of VVashington, like a Bethlehem star in the American fir- mament, illuminates with the pure rays of patriotism and devotion the path of our nation's destiny, and casts upon our Constitution the lustre of immortality. 79 THE ACHEM Top Row: Hzicke, Jolmson, Stroheker, Felter, Kinney, Bichlcr, If1lQlC'll1l11l'.

' LTHCUGH Missouri had entered the union in '21 and California as 'early as 1830, it was not until the last decade of the nineteenth century that the great northern expanse between them was entirely divided into states. The passing of the frontier had come and with it there departed, never to return, the guiding in- fluence of the ever-moving west. THE ACHEM ,Wg I COACH COACH MANAGER BISHOP HOUSE SEE CHEERLEADERS HARDIN SPENCER P1PK1N BAUMGARTNER VVICKHAM CAPTAINS JOST STERNBERO OREAR RUCH Football Track Tennis Golf THE ACHEM , ,sy 'NL A .S ' va . N l Football After the announcement of the preliminary football tryouts, one hundred eager boys appeared, willing to devote their afternoons, for perhaps ten weeks,lto Southwest foot- ball. More disciples appeared in the interest of football than at any previous time in the history of Southwest. Not only was this number remarkable for Southwest, but it was also a greater number than any other school in the city could boast. The first game of the season was a tie with the alumni who stopped many of Southwest's plays and played an all around good game despite their lack of practice. The Indians lost their first interscholastic contest with Central 20-05 but the second game with the Northeast Vikings finished at a 14-14 deadlock. The Redskins defeated the Westport Tigers 7-12 in the third engagement, but were in return beaten by the East Greenies 20-13, the invincible Paseo Pirates 12-0, and the Rockhurst Hawks 12-0. A 39-0 victory over Manual capped Southwest's 1931 football competition. W JOST THOMSON BLAUW MILLER HOWE Q 1 V, 2 101 ' THE ACHEM ,zfgiilll I S Tu Q In the opening interscholastic game, Central romped on Southwest to the score of 20-0. The Indians would have blanked the Eagles the first half had it not been for a beautiful 8Q+yard run resulting in a Central tally. However, in the third and fourth quarters, two touchdowns brought the Eagles to a 20-point lead as the game came to a close. Then there was that thrilling close to Southwest's encounter with the highly flaunted Northeasters. The Indians had just gone over for a touchdown which had reduced the Vikings' leading margin to one point. Yes, the Indians were going to try a kick from placement for that extra pointg if it proved successful, the score would be tiedg if it failed, the game would be lost. The ball was snapped back, Northeast plowed through the line to try to stop that menacing pointg but before the kick could be blocked, the ball rose and soared cleanly between the cross-bars. A tie 14-14. LIMB WILSON McDONALD CORTELYOU RHODES 102 tr sm 5 f v THE ACHEM ' in get t . 32 A..4 ae' t....-, ,.,,.-.,,i .N -sw , In the third game of the season Southwest beat the Westport Tigers by virtue of two long drives, once from the former's 20-yard line and again from a Westport fumble on the 45-yard line. The greatest excitement of the game, however, came immediately before the Westport touchdown when a Tiger linesman successfully blocked a punt on the Indians' 28-yard line. Realizing its chance to score, Westport hammered its way to the one-yard line where it was halted for the reminder of the downs. After Southwest's kick from danger, the anxious Southwest Tribesmen rooters believed a touchdown had been avoided, but soon after that a quick toss to an eligible Westport end brought about the Tigers' only touchdown. The Indians were unable to break Paseo's excellent record of an unbeaten and un- scored-upon team in the fourth engagement of the season. Although Southwest did not score, its supporters were highly entertained by a clever Paseo passing act. After the ball was passed by a back, to the line of scrimmage it was in turn tossed out near the sidelines. Here it was caught by another Pirate who ran 42 yards, unmolested, for a touchdown. The final score was 12-O. JUNIOR PARIS WAGER BUNTING WOBKER 103 THE ACHEM FIRST TEAM SQUAD i Top Row: Pritchard, Clark, Parker, Bannister, Butler, Shepherd, Reefer, Pate, Boyne, Mu-nn, Deichman.

East and Southwest traded touchdowns in the fifth interscholastic encounter and it was well into the third quarter before East put forth the needed initiative to break the deadlock. A long run and a pass by the Greenies made it appear that East was going to end the 13-13 tie. But Southwest's line became a veritable stone wall, East exhausted her downs, and the Indians punted from danger. Nevertheless, East was determined that her efforts should not be lost, and soon after, a 30-yard pass enabled the last scoring of the game. Southwest triumphantly crushed the unfortunate Manualites in the last game of the season. Although the game was too one-sided to be exciting, it was balm to the hearts of Southwest. Time and again an orange-blacked player entered into the end zone, the game was concluded only after Southwest had crossed the goal line six times and had made three kicks from placement. i Henry Jost, able Captain and left guard, and Al Thomson ,right tackle, were two of the eleven football players selected this year for the city All-Star team. Dick Miller, captain-elect of the 1932 Southwest football team gained a position on the All-Star second team as captain at halfback. He was also high point man of the season by a margin of fourteen points. E J 104 THE ACHEM SECOND TEAM Top Row: Beardsley, Gary, Trader, Henderson, Freed, Draney, West, Pearson.

Second Team Football Those underclassmen who were not experienced enough to earn a position on the first team squad got down to business and made a record to be looked upon with envy by the first string. Southwest's second team won the championship title of the Interscho- lastic League of second teams. Their 33-0 defeat at the hands of Central was dishearten- ing, but a steady unflinching march over Northeast, 0-125 Westport, 13-15, Paseo, 0-6g Rockhurst, 0-6, East, 0-125 and Manual, 0-26, made them league leaders at the close of the season. . The Westport-Southwest contest was either team's game. The Tigers crossed early into the end zone for a touchdown in the first period. However, Southwest retaliated with a spirited march to Westport's goal. With a 6-6 tie, an Indian linesman dropped a Tiger back behind Westport's goal for an added two points. Still Southwest drove across for another touchdown which was balanced by Westport in a similar drive late in the fourth period. Paseo reserves were beaten 6-0 by the Indian seconds after a long strenuous battle which ended only after the Indians recovered a fumble on Paseo's one-yard line and crossed for a score in the last period. The second touchdown of the East-Southwest engagement was as exciting as unique. A Greenie back, charging through guard, was met so heavily by an Indian tackler that the ball spun from the arms of the East player and was snatched from the air by a Southwest reserve who ran 60 yards for a touchdown. The Indian seconds crossed into the end zone four times during the Manual game and closed with a 26-0 score. It was their last game and a fitting finale for a champion- ship team. The Southwest second team lettermen, led by Captain Denny, are Beardsley, Mahoney, Summers, Draney, Bicket, Stoeltzing, Peck, Duncan, House, Hagen, VVager, Schopflin, Horn, VVest, and Jones. l05 , . I THE ACHEM Basketball Southwest's was a disappointing seasong but many of its encounters provided excite- ment when a sudden rally late in the game brought cheers fromall Southwest rooters. However, only once were the Indians able to break the oppressive losing spell which hung over them. Her first game against Liberty High School on Liberty's court resulted in the defeat of the Indians. After an exciting last half, during which the Braves drew to within one point of their opponents, Liberty netted four goals to top the 32-23 score. Again Southwest was swamped when the Indians met the old grads, who handed them a 40-13 drubbing. Alumni players were Singer, Gramlich, Carter, Helms, Zinn, Henry, Smith, Miller, and Brandt. - NEAL RHODES PARIS HOUSE WAGER l 106 THE ACHEM About eight thousand persons witnessed the first Interscholastic League games of the year at Convention Hall. The Indians played the Central Eagles, but found them hard adversaries. They held Southwest well on the defensive and managed to break through for several goals. At the half Central had a two-point lead which they widened steadily thoughout the remainder of the game. The game closed with Central holding the upper hand, a 23-15 victory for her. Southwest fell before Northeast to the extent of 26-12 in the second major engage- ment. The Vikings fine defensive play so tied up the Indian quintet that they were un- able to make a field goal during the first half, and only by the best of playing were the Indians able to score in the second. The Vikings controlled the ball for the major part of the game and often their rapid breaks caught the Indian defense unprepared. South- west was allowed only nine shots within thefree-throw line, of which they netted four. It was only by the narrow margin of free throws that Westport beat Southwest in the Indians' third interscholastic encounter. It was a close game throughout, the Braves taking the lead early in the second quarter but finishing two points behind at the half. Although Southwest stayed close to Westport during the entire game, the two Tiger free throws later in the fourth quarter were the points by which the Tigers managed to bag their 12-9 victory.

Paseo played rings around the Indians during the first half of the Paseo-Southwest game. Quick breaks and accurate shots gained for her a discouraging lead of eleven points. But early in the last half, Southwest rallied. While they held the Pirates score- less, the Indians swished seven points through the netting. This brought them within two goals of the Buccaneers and it seemed the Indians might yet win. But Paseo just would not be beaten. Both teams managed to shoot goals and the score at the shot of the gun stood-Paseo, 155 Southwest, ll. East and Southwest played another fast, evenly-matched game in which the Greenies held tophand throughout, although the Indians threatened their narrow lead twice. During these bursts it seemed that Southwest had a chance to defeat them, but East man- aged to pull away from danger each time. The Greenies led by a safe margin until late in the second quarter, when the Braves suddenly started tossing the ball through the h f d th elves leadin by only the score of 12 to 7 However thev hoop and t ey oun ems g . , , realized their peril and drew away again to a safe nine point lead. For a second time the Indians drew near their opponents. Holding the Greenies .to two points, they sank goals from all positions on the court. They were but two points behind East and the time was growing short! Then as the stands watched tensely, there was a mad scramble beneath Southwest's goal, an East player rose upward, and the ball swished through the network. A few seconds later the gun sounded-East was victorious, 21 to 17. Southwest captured her only victory of the season from Manual in the last game of the series. It was a close game, with Southwest holding the lead only during the last quarter. She had taken the lead early in the game, but immediately dropped back to a 3-3 tie with the Manualites. Then the Manualites broke the deadlock again, similarly to drop back to a tie with the Indians at the half. But after a practically scoreless third quarter, Southwest made a strong concentrated drive during the last quarter that re- warded them with a 21 to 16 victory. George Paris was .elected captain for the basketball season of 1933. The letters, referring to active service on the team, were given to Paris, House, Wager, Blauw, Neal, Clay, Rhodes, Miller, Rector, and Jost. 108 THE ACH.EM SECOND TEAM Top Row: Narr, W1'lk1'e.

Sweeping through the football .circuit to the championship, they repeated the action in the. basketball league. Like a whirlwind they swept through the schedule, dropping thelr only game to East by a narrow margin. ,After struggling for most of the game to catch up with Central, she finally forged past for a bare 18-17 victory. With a beautiful offensive, Central drove through the Braves' defense and soon hung up a good lead. However, the Southwest reserves hit their stride and passed their opponents in the last minutes of the play. The Northeast Vikings fell before the Braves 33-25 in the Indians' second and major engagement. The Braves took the lead early and maintained it throughout the game. At. one time the Vikings made a valiant attempt at victory, but a final spurt by the Indians placed the redskins well in the lead. Late in the fourth quarter the reserves swept the Westport Seconds from their feet to capture the third straight victory. Southwest held a one-point lead at the half which the Southwest quintet narrowed to a deadlock when the shot was fired. Therefore it was necessary for a play-off. The tie was finally broken by a Southwest goal in the overtime play-off. The champions captured an outside contest with Rockhurst by a slim one point victory. The Hawks got off to an early lead which was reduced to one point at the half. Early in the third period the Indians took the lead which they held tenaciously even after a dangerous rally by the Hawks. The final score was 15-14. K By clever team-work and accurate shooting, East overtook Southw'est's lead and topped the 19-17 score. It was the only defeat of the Indians. Although the Braves led in the first, East exhibited shooting ability and took the lead during the last quarter. The Indians slid into their championship when they beat Manual by a 19 point margin. Their reserves took an early lead,gwidened the breach, and held the advantage without serious opposition throughout the game. 109 THE ACHEM I , . .. .,.,..Mf , ' 2 rack The annual interclass contest was easily won by the seniors who captured first in the 100 and 220-yd. dashes, the Mfand M mile, broad jump, shot put, and relay.

The Indians captured places in most of the events and won lst, 2nd, and 3rd in the high jump. Courtland Nichols, cinder star of '30 and '31, took the 440 and half-mile. At the close of the meet Manual had 17 points, East 31, and Southwest 50. Southwest showed unusual ability in the Northeast meet although she lost by the score of 67-24. The basis for the glory of this minor defeat is grounded upon the fact that Northeast became the state champion. Courtland Nichols scored heavily with the crowd, when he narrowly beat the former city champion half-miler. Southwest was in the 440, 880, and shot-put. 110 THE ACHEM Top Row: Hobart, James, Reid, Ch-erii, Howe, Lynch, Cortelyolii, Williams, Limb.

VVestport snagged an exciting contest from Southwest, the final score being 47 5X6 to 431!6. Southwest won most of the running events, while Westport took the field with the result that at the beginning of the relay, the last event, Southwest clung to the narrow lead of ZX6 of a point. The team winning the relay would win the track meet. Leading by only a few paces, Southwest held on until the last lap, when the Westport anchor man forged ahead to win, by a nose, the victory for his school. Manual lost to Southwest in the last dual meet of the season. By placing in or winning every event Southwest secured 662 points to Manual's 24M. Southwest's hopes were pinned to Courtland Nichols' for winning points in the Interscholastic meet held on our field. The expectation was none too high for Nichols came through by winning both the quarter and half-mile. These, with an additional second place in the shot-put by Frank Lynch, constituted the most of Southwest's points.

A good tennis player must possess all the qualities that go together to make a master of athletics. One must have great alacrity, untiring muscles, a strong arm, sure footedness, keen in- telligence, and an unerring eye. In a set of good tennis every muscle is put into action, and a skillful player can be commended for his use of his athletic facilities. The history of tennis at Southwest begins with junior Coen who was a member of the Davis cup team and is to be the successor of Big Bill Tilden. Since then we have had many outstanding players but none have reached the height of Coen's tennis fame. This year brackets were posted in the front corridor and the progress of the school tournament was watched from day to day by the whole student body. Elimination matches were played and the singles champions were Fred Deichmann and George Aaron. The two doubles teams were Albert Thomson and Van Viot, and Joseph Dease and Byron Orear. The single entrants in the interscholastic matches were unfortunately defeated in the first engagement. However, the combined efforts of the doubles teams more than made up for this mischance. Albert Thomson and Van Viot won by a wide margin over Manual's best and later over VVestport's. Byron Orear and Joe Dease like- wise defeated their two schools. That meant that both teams advanced to the semi- finals before being defeated. This is indeed a remarkable record and one of which to' be proud. After the matches Byron Orear was eletcted by the letter-men as honorary captain. 112 rTHE ACHEM NVICKI-IAM CROMWELL RUCI-I VVRIGHT JAMES Golf Due to cooperation and individual low scoringthe Southwest golf team was cham- pion at the end of the 72-hole Interscholastic League golf tourney held at Swope Park No. 1. The Indians took a lead in the first game of the season which they managed to widen in each successive round. The championship team is determined in the following method known as medal play. At the beginning of the season the teams are divided into pairs, each being matched with the same pair from another school throughout the season. The total of the scores of the four members of a team are added together at the end of each game. At the conclusion of the golf season the team having the lowest total of individual scores for all the games is the winner. I Each member of the Indian team was awarded a team championship medal, while Bill Kahl of Westport was awarded a medal for the lowest total individual score, with Harold Wickham and Fred Ruch a close second and third respectively. In the first round of the season, Southwest gained a two stroke lead over her nearest rival, Westport, with a total of 357 strokes to Westport's 359. The high scores were due to severe winds which swept the course throughout the day. Bill Kahl of Westport was medalist Clowest individual scorerj for the day. Harold Wickham was second, and Fred Ruch, third. Cn April 9 Southwest increased her lead over the Tigers by l5 strokes. The team led the first nine holes by five strokes and triped the advantage on the back nine. Harold Wickham was medalist for the day. The title was practically Southwest's at the end of the third round. At that time Southwest was a god 22 strokes ahead of Westport, who held a wide lead over the rest of the field. Southwest's total for the day was 345 against Westport's 350. Harold VVickham and Fred Ruch tied for low individual scores. Although Paseo beat Southwest on the final round by 19 strokes, the Indian lead was sufficient by far to give them the championship. Paseo made a remarkable low with 325, Southwest trailing with 344. This most successful team of the Indians was made of Fred Ruch Captain, I-Iarlold VVickham, Robert Wright, and Ralph Wilkerson, regulars and Bill James, and Bob Bias, alternates. 113 THE ACHEM Girls' Athletics The girls' athletic department under the direction of Miss Frances Bayne has rapidly advanced during the past year. The students are divided into classes according to their ability in athletic work. The type of games and work is seasonal. In early fall, hockey is played on the athletic field. This is followed by some indoor spo-rts: basketball, indoor baseball, and volley ball. A certain number of days each week is given to tumbling stunts on mats, exercise on the bars, and relay running. In the spring, track is taken up and students interested in tennis are instructed by Miss Bayne. Preparations for the annual field meet, which is usually held at Country Day school, are made. In this annual event, about four hundred girls participate. Miss Bayne prepares the girls in their gym period for the dance in which they take part. The most recent assets to this department are the horseback riding and swimming classes. The girls interested in riding assemble each week at a nearby academy. The beginners are instructed in the ring, by experienced riders, and taken on the bridle path which extends approximately five miles. On Tuesday, girls interested in swimming go to Westport junior where they are tested in swimming and then divided into three classes: beginners, intermediate, and life saving. C3459 WHEELER Miss BAYNE VVILLARD 114 THE ACHEM This year a new accurnulative point system has been introduced, by which a girl may earn her letter when she has obtained the sum of one thousand points. The points are gained in such sports as tennis, swimming, golf, baseball, basketball, ice-skating, roller-skating, horse-back riding, hiking, leadership, and many other indoor and outdoor sports. Posture is considered one of the most important factors in obtaining this letter: poor posture must be either corrected or rapidly improved. This year several senior girls have won their athletic letters: Mary NVheeler, Katherine Willard, Muriel Moore, Madalane Franklin, Cathryn VVilliams, Dorothy Scott, and Mary Goetz. The previous system which had been in effect three years, was changed, because it was impossible to obtain a letter before reaching the senior year. Now the letter is given as soon as the girl has acquired one thousand points. One of the most exciting events of the year is the inter-class basketball tournament. Miss Bayne observes the girls very closely when they play in class and at tryouts. A team is then selected with the help of the manager she appoints, a team best fitted to represent their class. At the end of the tournament the all-star team is chosen, which is made up of freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors. . The girls are now advancing in their athletic work, and are taking a more active part in the school activities. The system of teaching the mass instead of the individual has proved highly successful, and in this way the individual is allowed to participate in all the activit-ies, thus creating greater interest in all sports. This intercourse among the girls of the athletic department has made possible sociability among them as well as aiding them in physical development.

T. C. training at Southwest. The cadets fire on a regulation fifty foot range in the basement of the school. The Southwest Rifle Club has been organized by the unit in affiliation with the National Rifle Association in Washington, D. C. Awards for shooting are provided. by the Association for those cadets who can meet the requirements. The medals range from Pro-Marksman to Distinguished Rifleman, furnishing the various stages of becoming an expert with the use of a rifle. A rifle team is chosen every year by Sergeant Story from the cadets who are members of the club or from any who can show themselves proficient on the range. A match is held annually in which a team from every high school competes. The Southwest Team has won the honors and the cup for the past two years. This, however, is chiefly due to the interest and efficient instruction which Sergeant Story has offered. Last year, in competitive drill and inspection, the Southwest Battalion won six cups from a possible eight. Une of these, the award for theoretical perfection, is to be the future possession of the school, having been won by Southwest for three years. First place in rifle competition was awarded through the time and effort spent on the range during the winter months by our rifle team. In May, however, in the most exacting competition of the year, the Corps Area Inspection, South- west was not only awarded the first place cup but the Battalion placed the highest in the Corps Area setting a recor-d of 94.6. The final competition of the year came soon after, the annual Field Day. There, Southwest entered competitive units in all divisions, Company, Platoon, Squad and Individual. In these competitions, Southwest placed second in Company Drill, third in Platoon Drill, and second in Squad Drill, for each of which she won a trophy. As a result of all these competitions, the total number of points for the Southwest Battalion placed her in the second place in the city entitling her to ap- pointing the Lieutenant-Colonel, second in command in the city.

Supple- mentary mathematics courses would be offered in which the pupils would be taught how to tally treasurer's rec- ords, and remember telephone numbers.

For days the cluster of wigwams which formed their camp had been the scene of great festivities and drunken revelry. Men had danced 'til they dropped unconsciousg had gorged themselves with food until they could hardly move, then had danced, gorged, danced, gorged, over and over again until they were completely assured that the gods would favor them on this hunt. That festival had been one of such fantastic displays that it might have seemed to the casual observer to be the distorted vision of a grotesque dream. Men had danced away the eve of the hunt in a wild religious rapture. With their oiled bodies gleaming in the light of the fire, they rotated about the flashing embers in a chain-like serpentine course, brandishing spears, bows, knives, and tomahawks in a wild display of tribal emotion. The dance, it seems, was what in civilized countries would have been termed a dumb show, the dancers acting out in shrieks rather than silence what the great chase itself was expected to be. A still larger ring enclosing the one just described was made- up of squaws and indisposed or younger members of the tribes, all of whom, although seated, played their parts by emitting with careful periodicity certain significant fiendish yells. Then to give the whole scene its final definition there was the steady, rhythmic pulse of the Indian drum. But now it was the following morning and everyone was resting from his orgies in preparation for the hunt itself. Indians lay everywhere in various states of stupor, paint still visible on their faces, and their gaudy festival costumes stiff with perspiration and caked with dirt. Even the dogs of the camp seemed exhausted, lying in the dust with their heads between their paws and blinking dreamily in the balmy sun. All was lifeless except in one cool corner of the camp under the shade of the huge pines where sat -a council of chiefs determining the course and proceedings of the hunters' tomorrow. , 5 6 Jibe Nearly all were men of years with seamed weather- beaten faces lined by the unguarded rays of the sun and hardened by exposure to the elements-men whose wis- dom had been gathered from the field of experience. Yet one member of this council was distinctive because of his apparent youth. Pitma, although he had experienced only twenty-two winters, had been admitted to the council of his fathers because of his astonishing ability as a warrior. Although there was not in his face the mellowing influence of age, 'though there was not the practical knowledge dis- played there which is gained from life itself, whatever was lacking of the past was overcome by the prospect of the future through the clean-cut, manly features and the keen, intelligent eyes. Many times he had so displayed his courage and sagacity that, 'without precedent, he had been granted the high tribal rank. White Bear, the prudent chief of the Beaver Tribe, was just completing a sketch of his plan for the hunt when suddenly there came a low whistle, a sickening thud, a gurgle in the throat of the Chief, and he fell, an arrow protruding from his breast. Simultaneously all the men sprang to their feet, ready to resist the attack which they supposed must be coming. It was only a matter of seconds until the camp, which had been so quiet, had reached the height of excited action. their cries mingled with the excited barking of dogs. Warriors, some still in their festive costumes, dashed to their tepees, grabbed up their weapons and ran back out, expecting any moment to hear the war whoops of the un- seen enemy as he dashed from the edge of the forest into the unprotected camp. Yet no sound came from the calm forest, no movement caught the anxious eyes of the as- sembling warriors-only silence. Slowly the tensed muscles of the warriors began to re- lax. Either no attack had been planned or it had been postponed. When Pitma returned to the body of the fallen chieftain, one observation immediately struck him as pe- culiarly strange. The arrow which had caused the death of White Bear was entirely black-a black shaft tufted at one end with black feathers and at the other end headed with a carefully chipped arrowhead of an unusual black flint. Sometimes designs in brilliant colors were painted upon shafts, sometimes certain tribal insignia upon the head 5 but never had Pitma seen an arrow all black. Upon closer inspection of the arrow he discovered that around the shaft had been bound a small piece of skin. Hastily untying the thongs and slipping the tissue-like hide from the arrow, he found burned on the skin, so that the char- acters were also black, a bold phrase- The first of the five. Puzzled but self-possessed, Pitma slipped the message into his pouch and began a systematic search for a definite clue. To the best of his calculative ability the missle had been shot from a near-by ledge of rocks accessible only from the side facing the camp. Yet a complete investi- gation of this point afforded absolutely no information as to the identity of the assassin. Here was a strange and none too pleasant combination of facts-the murder of the Chief, the threatening note, and the possibility that the murderer might at that very moment be participating in the search for the killer. Swiftly and silently Death had struck the camp, and just as swiftly and just as silently he had departed from the confused scene, with no sign of his passage other than the black arrow and the thing red ,. t y Nay 27, 7932 The editors wish io call the readerls Gll67ZlZ.01l fo the sy111ipatl,'1etic freatm-eiit of our red skin- prede- cessors by .liber4ty's latest and most sensaitional find in the realm of art. lVl1o is if ?

The hunt was deferred for the next few days while White Bear received a fitting funeral ceremonial. At the end of that time the chase went into full swing, the death of the Chief being lost in oblivion. Each day the warriors went out onto the floor of the valley in which the camp had been placed, stalked the bands of elk and deer, and some- times, on the slopes of the surrounding hills, hunted bear. Each evening, laden with their kill, they returned to camp, satiated their hunger, then, exhausted, fell into a sleep which ended only upon the dawn of another day. Every- where in the camp great sheets of thinly sliced meat were hung up to dry, thus giving obvious proof of the success of the hunt. Yet through all this time Pitma struggled with the problem of the black arrow and, especially, with the sig- nificance of the message on the piece of skin. Then came an occurrence which recalled and made doubly horrifying the first mysterious death. Shattering the silence of the night, had come a Woman's scream which acted as a mag- I L. dzes gleaming 111 the Iiglfzt of Iho fire, they rotcbted about The a Cham lzke .s'e1pe11fi1ze course. netic alarm for the entire camp. The wife of Little Otter was found moaning over the dead body of her husband, a Chieftain of the Fox Tribe. On the face of the murdered man was a look of inexpressible horror. The eyelids were stretched to the widest diameter, the balls bulging forth and the pupils dilated, the whole rendering a suggestion of wonder, horror, and fear. Having pushed his way through the hastily forming crowd, Pitma knelt at the side of the corpse. Although it was evident that the man had been killed by the blows of the fiend, there was another black arrow protruding from the breast of the victim. Around its shaft was another message, identical to the first with the single exception that this time there was inscribed upon it the words The second of the five. Turning to the grief stricken woman, he asked, How did you happen to discover this? Be- tween wails, the squaw replied that she had arisen to put more wood on the fire and, in doing so, had discovered the dead body. Enough! Pitma arose and walked out. But as he left, the last thing he saw was a shadow of the black ty 7 arrow magnified and ominously cast upon the walls of the tepee by the glow of the fire. First White Bear and then Little Otter! What was the meaning of this series of deaths? Both the men chiefs! The second of the five. Then the whole thing illuminated his mind as a bolt of lightning. Why had he not thought of it before? There were five chiefs of the five tribes of Pescal Indians-White Bear and Little Otter were two of them. The whole thing was some plot to murder the chiefs of the tribes. But what was the motive ? In view of the manner of death, he decided it was some form of personal revenge. Unless the course of the murderer was altered, it seemed highly probable that there would be three more black arrows-and one would be for him. Pitma revealed his conclusions and the evidence to support them to the council, which readily agreed with him. A vigorous search of the forest was executed. Yet as be- fore, no irregularity was discovered. It was then decided that a strong guard would be kept around the camp at all times, since the dogs which had formerly been relied upon to give a warning of the approach of any intruder had failed to do so. This itself was an outstandingfact and argued that the maurauder was someone who was, or had been, familiar to the camp. But the memory of the most vivid events will be dulled by time. Camp life went on peacefully. As the passing days turned into weeks, the danger to the lives of the chiefs again lost its keenness and the false impression eventually became master of the minds of the people that this terrifying episode in tribal history had been closed. Then one night, fortunately or unfortunately as it may have been, fate had Pitma find himself awakened from his sleep and staring intently into the darkness of his tent. The light of the dying fire cast ghostly shadows on the sides of the tent, and creepy shapes seemed to form in the darkness in the corners. Suddenly he had the impres- sion that something was creeping along the outside of his tepee. Straining his ears, Pitma could hear nothing ex- cept the tortured moan of the wind through the tops of the trees and the faraway rumble of the thunder of an ap- proaching storm. Out in the woods a lone owl hooted mournfully, while on a distant crest a forlorn coyote howled at the half covered moon. Suddenly there was a dull rustle outside the tent. Then close at hand a twig snapped. Immediately there flashed into the mind of Pitma the mysterious tribal murders. Was someone creep- ing up on him even as he had stealthily crept up on those other victims? There ran through his mind a series of pictures: he could see the huge shadow of an arrow on the wall of a tent, the message with the ominous and threat- ening words, and finally he had a terrifying picture of someone coming into his tent and finding him murdered with a black arrow on which was fixed a little piece of leather with the inscription,- The third of the five. ' But only for a moment did confusion grip him, and, true to his tribal instincts, he became more wary than afraid. He sprang erect, every muscle of his body alert, and listened breathlessly, straining to catch every sound of the wind or of the mysterious being who, he felt, was approaching nearer and nearer. 8. Jib Moment after moment passed, the wind had ceased and not another sound assailed his highly sensitive ear, and yet he knew he had but to lift the flap of the tent to come face to face with the enemy whom he had striven so hard for weeks to apprehend. Was it some treacherous member of the tribe, wily and crafty, or an enemy of the tribe who had learned only too well the ways of the camp ? Or was it, perhaps, some distorted and fiendish freak of nature, tales of which the old men of the tribe had often told him, some transmigrated soul in torment, with which he had to deal, or some being be- yond the ken of human experience, without flesh or substance? Of 6 ,. ty A May 27, 1932 could supply to a group of mounted Pescal warriors bear- ing the sign of the white buffalo. But, as fate would have it, the wind was such that his calls for aid were in- audible at that section of the shore along which the tribes- men were riding. This fact Needle-neck did not under- stand at the time 3 neither did he later attempt to reason it out. He laid their failure to help him to their inherent and vowed in his infant soul that cruelty and selfishness if he ever escaped from his present plight he would avenge against all men who walked under the seal of the white buffalo. The intensity of the hatred stamped up- on the unblemished mind at this himself ten times over these he was not so sure, but with undaunted courage he stifled the rising terror which was threaten- ing to possess him. He must be brave 5 he must stand his ground and meet whoever might come, human or super-human, unflinch- ingly. As these thoughts ran like lightning through his mind, the op- pressive stillness began again to be broken by the soft sighing of the wind. Could it be that after all there had been nothing to fear? But even as this consoling thought came, the flap of the tent began slowly to open. The fire had died out, leaving the darkness of the tent broken only by the glow of MR. BURROUGHS was born in 1798 in Hotel Lackowater, Quebec, Canada. He spent many of his babyhood days in the same cradle with Danial Boone, Pocahontas, and Buffalo Bill. It was here that he received the in- spiration for his magnificent novels of Indian experiences. As a boy Rohmer was widely recognized as a chap of industry and perseverance. Many times he was known to have waited ten minutes for a street car that he might return his library books before they were over-due. When twenty-one years old he was kidnapped from a voting booth by Dick Byrd on one of his trips to the poles. Ten years later, when Mr. Burroughs was fifteen, he was found by Walt Disney in Hollywood, since when he has made himself a phenomenal success in the role of Mickey Mouse. And so, it is with tears in his eyes and ink in his pen that Mr. Burroughs recalls this story told him by his old cradlemate, Pocahontas. time seems almost incredible However,his screams were not futile, for soon after the departure of the mounted band a half grown bear came stumbling down the side of a mountain on the opposite side of the lake to investigate the cause of such uncommon sounds. He came to the edge of the lake, saw the struggling body out on the ice, and cautiously ambled toward it 'til finally, at the very edge of the break in the ice, he stopped. He gave the semi-conscious being a few inspecting looks, some identi- fying sniffs, then a lick with his rough, red tongue. Somehow that creature appealed to the young bruin and with a few jerks of his claws and teeth, he drew the half- frozen body from the water. It was through the never-flag- the embers, a glow which, fortunately, would reveal to him at least the shape of any form that might enter. Slowly and steadily the flap lifted higher and higher, but so slowly that its motion was hardly perceptible, until after an interminable space of time it was lifted beyond the height needed to permit any human form to enter. With every nerve awake and every muscle tense, Pitma strained his vision to the utmost in an attempt to catch sight of the creature beyond the flap, but all he could see was the blackness of the night. It seemed as though the flap had been opened by some supermatural force. Why did the thing not enter? Could it, standing in the security of the blackness of the now stormy night and not know- ing that Pitma was awake, but be biding its time until, as it probably thought, Pitma might become aroused and make his position known, so that it might deal death un- erringly and surely as he had done with the other two 'Z Suddenly there was a mighty gust of wind and the flap tore back, rending the side of the tent. Pitma had no time to lose, he could no longer stay in concealment, it was now time to act. Firmly grasping his knife, he sum- moned all his strength and agility for a swift dash toward the spot where he judged his unseen foe must be standing. 24 P24 24 But that the reader may fully realize the danger of the situation Pitma was in the author chooses to introduce to him a human being who, for reasons later to be related, is named Needle-neck. Needle-neck himself did not know from whence he came or by what chance. His earliest remembrance was of hanging onto the jagged edge of a layer of ice in the middle of a deep mountain lake. He was emitting the most powerful and pleading cries that his youthful lungs ging devotion and care of this supposedly brutal beast that Needle-neck owed his present existence. Needle- neck knew this well enough and even he, a hater of all things, had loved this bear. He had grown up with the bear, slept, eaten, hunted, and killed with the bear, until in many respects he was himself a beast-only worse. He never associated with men. Passing tribes would capture his interest, however, and he would spend hours watching their activities from adroitly situated and se- cluded spots. But it was not with pleasure nor a yearn- ing for friendship that his eyes absorbed their lore, in- stead it was with an eagerness to learn. Such had been the manner in which he had become acquainted with the use of the knife, the bow, and the tomahawk. This was the life of Needle-neck until the death of his only companion and friend, the bear. But now his smouldering hatred for all that had life doubled in heat. What was once love now became hate. Just when Needle-neck had reached the peak of this horrible state of mind he saw for the first time since the day when he was hanging on the edge of the ice the em- blem of the white buffalo. The emotion under which Needle-neck acted the author dares not attempt to describe. Let it suffice to say that his plans for the intricate cam- paign of revenge upon the tribes of Pescal was the master- piece of ghastly invention. But Pitma's dash was suddenly checked, his arms shot out in terror, his senses reeled, for suddenly there appeared in the aperture of the tent, like the creation of a night- mare, the most terrifying apparition the eye had seen or brain of man had conceived. fContinued in next week's issue.J 7 d L- n it Lt 'e xr le Q- is at re 'n le le se Ie w ,e, :il me le a ,1- llS at lg Lis lf- g- lst le- all he til se. lld urs se- .H- 1n- een :he of his eat. his the fm- ,ich ibe. tm- 291'- hot .red ght- 1 or oolby oo in I9 2 Pages From Woo'is Wfzo As Tfzgf Will Hppear Fwy Team, Henoe ADAMS, PEGGY, founder of a new school of interpretive dancing, b.

Early in the evening he retired to his study, where he was ac- customed to reading and listening to the radio. About eleven o'clock the low rumbling of the machine was quieted but Mrs. Grice thought nothing of it until long past mid- night when she began to worry about the continued si- lence in Mr. Grice's study. Finally she called, but no reassuring answer came from within. Now in a state of frenzy, she burst into the room without further hesitation. But no sign of her beloved husband nor his whereabouts were found until the chance discovery of the following note: Dear Madge, My vain efforts to instill in our daugh- ter some knowledge and appreciation of sports have to- night received the crowning blow. I cannot remain to face the disgrace that her actions tonight must surely bring upon me. Always your own, Rantyf' The disgraceful action referred to by Mr. Grice was undoubtedly the radio talk given by his seventeen-year- old daughter, Miss Anetta Grice. For the convenience of our readers we are printing word for word the fateful speech of Miss Grice as it was given in the New York studios of the National Blowanblast Company the eve- ning of May 7. Q Good evening, radio friends everywhere: Your an- nouncer has asked me to say a few words about anything, he doesn't care what it is. That being the case, I'll ex- pand a bit upon athletics, daddy's favorite subject. Considering the environment in which I have been reared, it is only to be expected that I should have the lowest low down on all phases of modern sports. I must admit that from a woman's point of view I find some branches of sports life perfectly unendurable. Take, for instance, the time when Russ, he's a boy 13 Was I ever glad to leave that game? It was one of 14 Jfibe friend of- mine, invited me to the great Scabbord-Bale football game. Of course, I was simply delighted at the idea of seeing the game. Incidently, the prospect was doubly thrilling, because when could I find a better time for buying that darling sport suit I had seen? I spent a whole day making sure that there was no other suit in town I liked better, and then when the day of the game came, it rained! Such luck! After Russ had paid such an outrageous amount of money for our seats, they were so wet that I ruined my new sport suit, and my shoes, by the way, were total wrecks. But as I was going to- say, just as we were being seated, everybody jumped up and started to yell. You just can't imagine how embarrassed and conspicuous I felt. I didn't see how we had offended them so to make them yell at us that way. Then Russ explained that the 'rty Jllay 27, 1932 my expectations. Had it not been for some kind of stuff- ing around the shoulders some of those players would have looked more like pyramids than human beings. Such physiques! Some of the players had on red sweaters and some had on green and purple striped ones. Really, now isn't that terrible taste? But to go on with the game, it finally started by one fellow kicking the ball from the middle of the links. When the ball came down at the far end of the fareway, the very obliging player who caught it started to run back with it to that mischievous fellow who kicked it. Al- though I thought that was a very gentlemanly act, I bet that if you got that man out in the world he wouldn't even offer his seat in the street car to a woman with six children. You can't fool me, he was just showing off be- fore that big crowd. game had already started and that they were yelling at the players. I looked out in the direc- tion of the links, expecting to see something really interesting, but all I saw was a bunch of boys piled up on top of each other in a silly heap. When I asked Russ what in the world they were doing, he mere- ly said, 'I'm just beginning to real- ize that I should never have brought you to a football game! The players had all lined up and one fellow in the middle stooped over as though he was trying to stand on his head, and then he threw a funny looking egg shaped ball between his legs to the player behind him. 'But Russ,' I asked, 'why does he stand on his head to throw the ball? I received no re- ply from that one, but, personally, I think he could have thrown it a lot farther if he had thrown it for- ward and had not taken such a ridiculous position. The boy who caught the ball evidently didn't NEXT WEEK- A Study in Zoolitics by c X. 6'Spider Graft 'I' 'The Web the Worm Spins and the Strings That Support It p the most boring thing I ever at- tended in all my life. But I did notice one thing that will always stay with me. Only a small part of the boys did all the work. A lot of them just sat on a long bench and were so lazy that they didn't even try to help. Such school spirit! Then I've seen baseball games. Last, summer when I visited my chum in St. Louis, her brother and a friend of his took us to a baseball game. It isn't nearly so rough a game as football. They didn't get together in crowds and push and shove each other. Each one seemed to have a definite thing to do. One man stood out in the middle and served the ball while another one tried to hit it with a big club. One fellow was surely smart. He just stood there and didn't even try to hit it and after a while they just let him go down the bridle path to stand on the first pillow. This understand the game either, because he just tucked the ball under his arm and started to run. Can you imagine that? Then allthe others started to chase him, but I guess they couldn't make him understand that he was all wrong be- cause one fellow finally had to grab him around the legs and the rest of them all piled on top of him. He wasn't as big as the rest of them and I just held my breath while they all unpiled for fear he'd be all flattened out. Finally they were all down by the North Pole and Russ started yelling 'Hold that line, hold that linel' but I never did see the line he was talking about. Just then there was a pistol shot. I frantically clutched Russ's sleeve and screamed my very worst because I thought the game must have been getting unusually rough if they were starting to shoot each other. I felt sorta squelched when Russ contemptuously explained that it was the end of the first half. I then had leisure to note the appearance of the ,play- ers and I was both astonished and disappointed. I had al- ways visioned the football heroes as big he-men in really good looking suits. They certainly didn't measure up to made the server awfully angry but he had a little better luck with the next man. When the ball came to this fellow he spun around real fast but nothing happened. Everybody started yelling about a hole in the bat, but I still don't think there really was one. Finally the swinger fooled the server though and hit it. The ball sailed way out by one of the sign boards where a caddy posted out there caught it. Just because he hit it they wouldn't let the man play any more and he had to sit down in a little hole in the wall that they dug out. But can you imagine this? On a hot day, like that one was, the players had on long-sleeved flannel shirts and woolen socks. This seemed so funny to me and in such contrast with the dress of a track team! They wear practically no clothes at all, and in cooler weather, too. Why, last May when Russ took me to a track game, they seemed to be trying to cool off by jumping up in the air to get the breeze. Everything they did at that game looked to me like a waste of energy. A big tall boy appeared on the scene with a long fishing pole grasped in his hands. He 19 P- .fn ld ch nd DW ne en he .ck kl- Jet n't six be- of at- did ays art lot nch ln't rit ! ries. my and ball h a get and med One and one One just y to just ph to This etter this zned. but the ball addy they down s can s, the oolen itrast ically , last led to at the to me an the 1. He Illczy27,1932 Jibeg-ty 15 ran along a little path with the fishing pole held in front 'How far do you expect a fellow to throw a sixteen pound , of him and headed toward two big sticks with a bar across iron shot?' Now, how was I to know it was iron? Hon- the top. And then all of a sudden the fishing pole stuck in the ground and it threw him way up in the air. He dropped the pole and tried to land on that bar, but he missed it and went over the top and dropped down on the other side. Russ said he broke a record, whatever part that it, but I'll bet that if the truth was known, he broke a couple of ribs. There seems to be a funny rule about track games. While the rest of the game is going on they have to have three or four huge athletic specimens playing with a ball over on one side of the court. On ac- count of the size and strength of these players, I expected them to throw the ball the entire length of the court, but they never did throw it very far all afternoon. I asked HE editors wish to congratu- late one of Jiberty's most promising cubs, Aarie Porter, on the nice bit of sleuth work he did on this Grice case. In his mod- est way he would lead one to draw the conclusion that the solution of this intricate mystery case was tractable to the tenth degree and that he was only a bewildered spec- tator. But there should be credit where credit is due. The solution of the Grice disappearance is one of the masterpieces of present day detective ingenuity. estly, I couldn't see where there was any teamwork or object in the game. In other sports there is at least a semblance of the players supporting each other, but in a game of track, each player tries to outdo all of his teammates. Ridiculous, if you ask me. But my time is almost up and I want to draw a weighty conclu- sion. I feel that, surely, since I have attended at least one game of each sport, I ought to be consid- ered an accomplished authority on the subject. Anyone will tell you that I understand nearly every- thing there is to know about ath- letics, and this is my valuable opin- ion in a nutshell. I think athletes and athletics are stupid, dull, senseless, and pointless. Good- night, all. Russ about this afterward and he in return asked me, Ranty, old boy, we're with you. You know your stuff.

I was sitting face to face with him and could not but be impressed with his appearance. Keen and alert, with eyes that seem to take in everything at a glance, or at least everything they see at one glance, it is no wonder that he is called America's News Hound No. 1. First, I should like to know what it is that makes a great news story, I said. Oh, Yeah! he replied, with that, subtle humor that has made him infamous. Selecting the best news stories is like selecting the most succulent weenies or the most horrible radio crooners. It all depends upon the location of one's house, his artistic temperament, and his emotional demagoggery. But here they are. With that he grabbed a scrap book from the top of the desk and started turning pages. First came that most extraordinary announcement of the requirements of graduation which was reported to have been misinterpreted by a vast number of stu- er pupils. Along with this were the returns of the elections of the Lit Clubs, the Honor Roll of '31 was announcedg Coach House's summer schooling at Notre Dame was disclosed, and that historic battle of Alumni and Regulars was thrust upon an unsuspecting world. Then the tale of how the representatives to congress were elected amid much rioting and bribery at the pollsg and the description of how those fightin' Indians went down to bitter defeat at the hands of Central. Preparations were made, according to one article, to dedicate the revamped barn, or rather the present day lllr aux tai fir He at Co tiv unc of in edi iliz 1101 by tes sei bo4 use to tea of do' ho' tez ba' an caj 12111 ha tri pic Ch: iss ha no of fir as: A an he Ti eri foi H: ed H1 to Ol as E1 pc ba ca vi nc 'lc fo ve 1 f li 0 31 I.. F w Fll Y el W E of of ve ls. he ch d . st ss ls, nt to ay rlrlay 27, 1952 Jfib auditorium of unsurpassed architectural beauty. The de- tails of how Laurence Burd led the new congress in its first session were given in an article in the same paper. He was assisted by Anne Hayden, the first lady. It was at this meeting that Burd quoted such excerpts from the Constitution as: 'It shall be the duty of each representa- tive to', etc., etc. A number 1 head in the right-hand col- umn saved the day by explaining how that mighty team of battling Indians literally crushed the Westport Tigers in a football game to be long remembered. '4After that the news that Alden Wells had been made editor-in-chief of the Sachem flashed over the entire civ- ilized world, including Waldo. Then the bombastic an- nouncement that the Southwest Braves had been defeated by Paseo and Rockhurst in two of the most grueling con- tests ever perpetrated by bodies of men. Following the write-up of the Armistice Day as- sembly, in which Rabbi Mayerberg addressed the student body, came the grave and mournful news that East had used the air to defeat the Indians. Think of that, the air to defeat the Indians. The word that a Southwest golf team was being organized was accompanied by the results of the all-school-play tryouts, Viot, and Boone dragging down leads in the coming presentation, 'Janice Meredith? Lo and behold! how could I forget the one that told how that human engine, Dick Miller, accompanied by his team-mates, trampled Manual to defeat in the last foot- ball game of the season? Yea, team! For this perform- ance and many others of like merit, Miller was elected captain of the team in '32, a declaration equalled only by the announcement that Henry Jost and Albert Thomson had made the city all-star football team and that the trusty Indian Seconds had won the minor league cham- pionship. Alden Wells dusted off the senior president's chair according to the gossip in column three of the same issue. Then came the news that some of the home rooms had adopted Christmas families, truly one of the most notable things done during the entire year. The plans of Congress were presented in black and white for the first time. In the same issue we read of another important assembly, which was this time conducted by Dr. Harwood. A most interesting exhibition was given by Dr. Harwood and his two mascots, a bear and a lion, a program which held spell-bound even the hardened gallery gods. Look at this! Central defeated Southwest again. Tish, toshg Ah, here is good news! John Phillips, Bev- erly Smith, and Carrol Mickey captured all the medals for the best J effersonian essays in the city. Here is theft! Harry Kaufmann and his gang steal the press from ex- editor Frances Byers and her gang. Of all things! Coach House had the nerve to announce that the track season was to start soon. It won't be long until the try-outs for the Olympic winter games will be held on the fourth of July. Then we read about an impressive and appropriate assembly honoring and paying tribute to the genius of Edison, an item dampened only by the report that West- port and Northeast had both trampled upon the Indian basketeers. George Robertson and Addison Shepherd are called in to guide the good ship 'State' as president and vice-president of Congress, according to an article I am now reading. At last professor R. V. Hill got someone to 'look at things squarely! Due to friendship toward his former advisor, Dr. Hutchins, president of Chicago Uni- versity, enlightens the student body at an assembly. evty 17 After this, came the gratifying news that the all- school play, 'Janice Meredith', had scored a rousing success, news equalled only by publication of the names of those sixty-nine fearless and brave hearted boys and girls who made the Honor Roll for the first semester. 'Thot thar' fightin' snarlin' band of Indian warriors is re- ported to have lost to the Paseo Pirates in a close contest which virtually assured Paseo of the city championship. The Southwest R. O. T. C. unit breaks to the front by scor- ing first in the city-wide rifle marksmanship tournament. Tin soldiers? Bah! Here's a number one article that says Carrol Mickey and Freddie Boone were honored by being made Lieuten- ant-Colonel and Sponsor Lieutenant-Colonel respectively, ranks surpassed by only one other high school in the city. Can you beat it! Representatives to congress were again chosen by the states, so this paper says, while clubs elected their new heads. It was unnecessary to announce the fact that the mid-year students had entered Southwest. The account of the gay Bi-centennial pageant pre- sented by the history classes must certainly go doum into the annals of time. With the memory of Al Thomson decked out as George Washington, it will be impossible to forget the father of our country for at least another two hundred years. John Phillips gains the distinction of being his school's representative in the Star's Oratorical Contest, ac- cording to volume VI, number 13 of that illustrious paper, The Southwest Trail. At last! Southwest won her clos- ing basketball game of the year by defeating the unfor- tunate Manualites. Whoops! The Seconds kept up their record pace by taking the minor basketball championship. Hail the champions and hope for next year! Goodness gracious, look at the auspicious announce- ment of the beginning of the senior play 'Beau Brummel' led by Norbert Anschuetz and several women. But can we forget the campaign for the maintenance of the all im- portant nine mill tax, or Jimmy Green's letter from Geneva. My dear Miss Prentis, would you look at this long list of news stories? Announcements that the class of 1932 will give an elm tree symbolic of the bi-cen- tennial of the birth of George Washington as their part- ing contribution to the school, that the commencement ex- ercises will be held in the school auditorium instead of in Convention Hall, and the news that the club dances are well under way, that the golf team had won their first match, and that Captain Sternberg's scrapping tracksters had won a triangular meet with Manual and East, and a dual meet with Westport when all put in one paper will dazzle even the experienced veteran, Libel Sootes. Then come the accounts of Southwest's defeat in the city oratorical contest, Commander Eldredge's discussion of the Manchurian situation, the plight of Sapphos after forking over the cup to those uncouth Zend-Avestas, the magnificent presentation of 'Beau Brummel,' the induction of the National Honor Society, the phenomenal success of the Southwest track and golf teams, and at last the long awaited senior day and its interruptions. After a pause I asked Mr. Sootes if he had anything to add to his excellent list, for which we were most grateful. Yes, he replied, I want you to add joke number 3572 in Mr. Overman's volume of Perennial Jokes that Cannot be Wilted. .1 - - Y - . 411- ,,, 1 O ,Iib er-ty Ma-31 27, 1932.

I feel that I cannot say enough in commendation of you and your splendid school. Before I came to you I had attended the ----- Secretarial School for some time. I did just what I had to do at that school, and I was never encouraged or helped to do any better. I enrolled in your school and it was no time at all before I felt the benefit of your helpful, inspiring personality. I began to feel that I was accomplishing something. I did accomplish a great deal, and that could only have been brought about by your conscientious method of teaching. I wasted a great deal of money before coming to you, and I wish I could make everyone see how much better he can do under the attentive personal supervision of a splendid teacher like you, than in an ordinary modern business school. ALICE HILDEBRAND. May I express my appreciation of you as a teacher: and also of your wonderful, almost magical business course-SHORTHAND AND TYP- ING IN 30 DAYS. Having completed my course, I am more than well pleased with what I have accomplished under your guidance. Under your individual attention at the end of my 20th lesson in typing, I was writing at the rate of 30 words per minute. On my 30th lesson in shorthand, I had the speed of 135 words per minute. If anyone desiring to learn shorthand and typing accurately and quickly would come to you, he would save much time and money, and avoid much discouragement. RUBY LEWIS LASTER. When I entered your school, I was quite skeptical of your promise: Shorthand and Typing in thirty days. To my surprise, on my sixteenth lesson I took dictation at the rate of 140 words per minute. On my twenty-fourth lesson in typing, I took a speed test and my average was 35 words per minute. On my thirtieth lesson, I knew all the forms of business letter writing, legal forms, and tabulating, and had learned how to cut stencils for mimeographing. I On my thirty-second lesson, I accepted a position in a law office. I take great pleasure in recommending your school. You do abso- lutely everything you say. You are a most kind and conscientious teacher. ORA THOMPSON. 22 MINERCD. WO O D L I N G HEATING AND VENTILATING CO.

Only small fire in the living room but, with frenzied activi- ties of two truckloads of firemen and a carload of burly policemen, the neigh- hood seemed in great danger. After chopping down the back door and sev- eral windows, though the front door was standing open, and after one gen- tleman inquiring, What did youse guys do wid dem axes, the fire was extinguished and the gentlemen left, leaving a very wet and wrecked house. But their service, of course, was in- valuable. J. G., Dec. 29, 1931-This is the first day that I did nothing of importance besides reading on the Constitution and starting my economics essay. N.

Twice the call was repeated-with no apparent movement Within the hammock, and no response elsewhere. The third time a window next door was opened and an even sleepier voice answered: Whaddaya want? C'mere a minute. 4cWhy?nr KC 46 I wanna tell ya something. Well, go ahead and say it. Huh-uh. Well, wait a minute then. The window was slammed down, and fifteen minutes later a sleepy-looking young man emerged from the house next door. Well? Say, look at that, will you? Bud's eyes followed those of his friend Chuck, and rested with blazing ferocity on a white-clad figure pinging endlessly with a tennis racquet. That's 'my sister! commented Chuck in an extreme- ly disgusted Voice. And tha,t s mine! said Bud, shifting his gaze to where another white-clad figure was swinging and miss- ing with awkward determination. Say, listen here, Bud, Chuck demanded fiercely, Are we gonna put up with that all summer? At the rate they're going now, we'll have to go back to school to recuperatef' You're telling me-? Listen, lad, my slogan has al- ways been 'Give me liberty or give me death'. That's the spirit, all right, but what can we do? How about taking a trip? ' In what, may I ask? Well, there's your motorcycle. We could . . . Oh, no we couldn't! In the first place, the thing has been out of running condition since the last time you used it, in the second place, your mother would say 'no,' and in the third place the loss would be on me. But may- be I could get some money out of the thing. Why couldn't we buy a car? Say, pal, how much money could you rake up? Oh, we wouldn't have to worry about that. I've got a pretty good bank account left from that work I did last summer, 'n with the money from your motorcycle . . . say, let's go look at cars right now! An hour later found the two gazing judiciously at a varied assortment of used cars. One especially had cap- tured their attention, not from any perfection of line or machinery, but because of the very appealing price of 312.75 painted in great white figures on the wind-shield. i Gosh, remarked Bud, I wonder where they found a pre-historic model like that. I suppose you expect to get a diamond-studded Dusenberg for 5512.75 All I've got to say is that I'll pay the 3512.75 if you'll pay the rest. Cl H Howirr BoRzEM An odd, black-bearded little salesman approached with miflcing St9PS- Ah, my boys, you are interested in this lovely car, yes? Is it not beautiful? Such grace, such individuality! Yeah, I agree with you on that last point, Bud com- mented. How about a demonstration? Oh, yes, a demonstration. Most certainly. Here boys, get right in here . . . well, that's strange. This door opened easily just a short time ago. After ten minutes of energentic cranking on the part of the salesman, the engine starte-d with a rusty wheeze. There, shouted the little man, his voice hardly audible above the roar of the motor, Did you ever hear such a delightful purr? Isn't it a charming little car, though? After a rather exciting demonstration, during which it was discovered that the car was without brakes, lights, and most of the other standard accoutrements of automo- biles, the boys concluded that because of the enticing price they had better not let the bargain escape their clutch. An oral agreement ensued in which it was decided that the boys would return in the morning, lay down the 812.75 and drive off the gas guzzler with two spark plugs to boot. All details concerning the coming trip were given the most analytical consideration. Care was taken that Hollywood, the Olympics, the Empire State Bldg., and a big game hunt in the northern woods were not slighted in the little-well, no, it was really rather broad in its scope-call it their little educational tour. It surely wasn't too late to become pages at either the Democratic or Republican convention at Chicago, or- Early that evening two boys met by appointment on the front steps of Bud's home. Chuck's younger sister and Bud's little brother were beginning their evening dramatization of Maggie and J iggs on the front lawn. Well, Bud, Chuck inquired, How do you feel about that trip? To tell you the truth, I'm not so hot about seeing those Olympics after all. Tonight's sport page said the met was just going to be a walk-away for the U. S., any- how. I've been thinking the same thing, and besides, do you realize this trip would take an awful lot of our time away from our parents ? It won't be possible for them to have us around many more years. An awkward pause followed which was finally broken by the youthful Maggie, who was resting while J iggs tied his shoe-lace. Bud, don't let Chuck kid you. He's been bawling all afternoon cuz Mom told him he wasn't old enough to take a trip.

Magazine or Chloroform, Which? 20th Floor of Bryant Bldg.-One afternoon I was innocently sitting in my office attempting to work, when I heard an uncanny, buzzing, shrieking sound coming from the direction of our sedate Southwest High school. I immediately grabbed my hat, boots, car chains, and screw driver, and crept fearfully-I mean fearlessly-toward the school. I observed nothing. The sound led me tremblingly to the en- trance of the school, then to the audi- torium where, much to my surprise, I found, not an escaped zoo but some- thing equally dangerous-a girls' lit society. Each girl was singing, or rather, emitting hideous outbursts from the larynx, on something about winning a Lit Contest. Frantically I sought the janitor, a principal, or some other authority, but all had been driven out by the uncontrollable feroc- ity of the singers. Then, in a moment of unbearable desperation, I was graced with a superb idea. I rushed to the nearest drug store and bought all the Jiberties I could find. I re- turned to the school, crept as near as possible and threw the Jiberties in the midst of the shrieking group. One cried, A Jiberty! The others scream- ed A Jiberty! They all scrambled wildly to obtain a J iberty. And then -. Silence reigned in the great hall as the sweet young things lay pros- trate upon the floor, unconscious and helpless.

P Teacher's Eye View of an Exam Electoral College .... The teacher has spent much time thinking out the wording of a set of questions which will give the boy who studies and thinks a chance really to show his ability, at the same time will keep the hard working child who doesn't think from getting discouraged, and also will prevent the bluffer from getting by. She is well satisfied with her results. To her mind a master- fully worded set of questions has been handed out and she is sitting back waiting for the fifty minutes to pass. As she glances around the room to while away those minutes, her eye falls on such a good looking chap on the side of the room close to the windows. He has been far more interested in the history of a broken down Ford than he could ever be in the history of mere ancestors. Now he sits chewing the end of a pencil. At the rate he is go- ing the life of that pencil will surely be short and he is no longer the happy care-free boy whom she saw last night overhauling that pet Ford. Across from him is a charm- ing blonde who has chosen her seat wisely, the sun brings out all the gold in her hair. What happened at Shiloh? Why should she know? She is an authority on face pow- der, not gun-powder. To her right is a glib tongued Irish lad who has a record of using more words to say less than anyone else in the class. However, those questions seemed to have dammed up his flow of words. Way back in the room is a group of promising young Communists. If there is just one well prepared member of that group, they will all get along splendidly in their cooperative efforts. The Russian experiment is unknown to them, but they early learned the value of cooperative tests. As she glances over the room her mind unconsciously turns to the lines of our immortal Declaration- All men are created equal. When will that equality be perceptible, she wondered, cer- tainly not at sixteen. Perhaps at twenty-one the owner of the decrepit Ford, the charming blonde, the Commun- ists will all show that they are now the equals of the lad in the front of the room with a straight E record, who isn't worried by those masterfully thought out questions. Who knows? She doesn't . . . Imoan Muzzy Bimpson. Sk Pk Pk Barbarism Unveiled. University of Applied Riffraff ....

I could shed light on many subjects in this brief epistleg but I shall throw the penetrating rays upon one of our continuous efforts to propagate barbarism. We have a publication here at the University of Ap- plied Riffraff which is known as the Sachem. It is a de- vice intended to give students the hazy idea that they are giving to the school what should be their last full meas- ure of devotion. The body of the book is a collection of photographs of the students expending their best efforts to look as if they were what they are not. Under the photos of those who have been with us from four to six years appear such striking observations as And still the wonder grew that one small head could carry as little as she knew. The babes of our institution appear in lots. They are embryonic seniors and one can note the delicate trace of the struggle to appear as Cleopatra or Apollo Belvedere. ' The Zenith of the departure from the realms of intel- ligence is found in the closing pages of the book where one may see the unforgiving photographs of students at- tempting to appear clever. In opening the copy of the new annual each spring, I always turn first to this section. With all attempts to hide our barbarism under the thin veneer of civilization, this section is a joy, it presents simply and forcibly-truth eternal. -Dr. J. S.

Manana. But alas, I soon realized that I had rushed in where probably no sane angel would dare to tread. What could I possibly say to so critical a group as the readers of J iberty? You see I know, for I read it-and criticize it- myself. Should I in fancy have Minos, the judge of the Lower world, pass on the seniors admitted to his realm and assign appropriate penalties? Should Alden Wells be committed to a date every afternoon and evening for eternity to make up for lost time? Should Aaron Levitt forever forgo those luscious club sandwiches and velvety malted milks and be forced to subsist solely on the whey of goats' milk ? And our gay Betsy Anderson! Might not Minos condemn her to cramp her cheeks with an eternal giggle? Or could I choose an appropriate place of exile for some of Southwest's famous characters? Would the crater of Vesuvius silence Pete Hirsch? Or the prospect of a night in the London Tower put a quietus on the ubiquitous ques- tions of Gertrude Field? Would a bouncing ride over an old Roman road in a Sicilian carroza ruffle Charles Wager's calm? Before I had time to decide these and other equally delicate questions, the senor wrote for, nay-demanded the letter. Si, si, senor, manana-I wrote back, not once but many times-Manana! Why this manana complex? Well, it's an old Spanish custom, and all too popular in the beginning Spanish classes in Southwest. Shall we say the students have corrupted the teacher '! But bravo!

As to the first point, look at Socrates. The phosphate he drank proved to be his phate and hemlocked him in his tomb. Look next to Philip of Macedon, who died happily before sobering up while celebrating getting rid of his daughter. Look at his son Smart Alex, who, not satisfied ' ' ' ' h t 'd of on being intoxicated with power, crawled on t e ou S1 e sufficient aqua vitae that he soon followed his dad via Lethe to Mnemosyne.

Some people make light of ours by calling it moonshlne, but it really is so liquescent that, when mixed with an equal portion of gasoline, checks off the surplus population at a rate which makes war unnecessary. The second point, the roots of the evils. Voila: Root Beer comes from Bierut, Near Beer from the closeups of Hollywood, and Bier from the Dead' Sea. Tar we get from the Black Sea, Pink 'Lemonade from the Red Sea, and Road Oil is imported from Rhodes. The third point, the remedies. Facile: 1. Turn all your troubled waters into the Pacific, 2. Smelling salts may be had from Great Salt Lake, 3. For good hair tonic, go to the Encyclopedia-Britannica rules the waves.

I have tried so hard to wear a suitable cloak of dignity in this marvelous institution of learning where all the wealth of the lore of past ages is thoroughly weighed and pondered and immediately for- gotten. Pardon me, I meant to say forgotten as soon as the final examinations are over. But I have digressed! When I found I was to be an inspiration for young and budding girls and boys I knew I must pay close attention to my conduct before them. What should be the proper pose to assume in the classroom, in the corridors, and on the street? But none of the tailored cloaks of dignity seemed to fit me. Either they were too severe or they were unbe- coming. I became completely discouraged for a time. The traditional garb of the schoolmaster of my boyhood days was out of the question. So I finally decided upon one which was quite original in design and one which no other pedagogue will ever ape. I have heard all sorts of com- ments on it, both good and bad. I shall continue to wear it until it wears out or until fate decrees that I need a new one. Have you any suggestions for alterations? I shall be glad to hear them and act upon them-if they please me. -S. Develyn Good.

The mystery concerned an uncertain number of Southwest students, and the idea was to solve the mystery. Slim tried to recall all that he had thus far learned of the case. It seemed that,a certain group of upperclassmen had been having strange and mysterious dealings with another and smaller group composed mainly of Freshmen. There had been secret notes, whispered consultations, and such a long-drawn series of events that even the two factions of the mystery had long since forgotten the cause or causes of these inexplicable transactions. i lissful r gnorance Why Women Donit Run ur Government 11 y A SHQRT STQRY D By ZENDA BACARUFSKIN h . The room- had .soon reached a l pitch of uncohtvfollable chaos. Slim had simply stumbled onto the mystery. On his occasional visits to Southwest, he had been ac- customed to leave his coat in a certain unused sec- ond-floor locker. At least Slim supposed that it was unused. He had never found anything in it other than a huge, imposing volume that he had not both- ered to examine. Upon leaving the school after one of these visits, he noticed a note on the floor, and absently stuffed it into his pocket. While walking homeward he read the note: The meeting tonight will be very important. You dare not miss it. Remember-311 at 3:11. Somehow, Slim felt extremely guilty about keeping from its intended destiny anything so vastly important as the above-quoted manuscript must be. His conscience for his curiosityj de- manded that he make some compensation for having taken the note, so he decided that the least he could do would be to investigate the case. Accordingly, he set out on his re- turn journey to the school, fully determined to learn something of this curious organization or to die in the attempt. By three o'clock that afternoon, Slim had concealed himself in the instrument closet in the southeast corner of May 27, 1932 32 Jiberty room 311.

Well, is there any new business? Apparently there was, for the room was in a very animated state of com- motion for some moments, after which a suffering, agonized voice inquired: Madame President, what kind of dreses are we going to have for our society this year? We ought to get them soon. I was afraid of this, the Presi- dent murmured to herself. The room had soon reached a pitch of uncon- trollable chaos. Ideas, questions, and insults were thrown with inconceivable vehemence. l Let's have bright red with gold trimmings. What do you think this is-Christ- mas?

Ap- parently there was no more, for in a moment or so the President proceeded, Janet is going to read for us an original poem, composed under the most strenuous of circumstances. After a few minutes of shuffling about and very audible whispering, a deep booming voice began, You see, it was in study hall and Miss Barr had made herself very com- fortable by leaning against my desk, and evidently had no intention of moving.

There fol- lowed a long, sing-song exhortation on everything in general- and school in particular, to which no one paid the slightest attention. When she had finished, the unbrok- en droning sound in the room pro- claimed that the girls had not noted the discontinuance of the original poem. The President was forced to remind the girls how much we have enjoyed Janet's poem at which the girls applauded long and loud. Now has anyone anything else to say? asked the President. If not, Dorothy has a very important an- nouncement which is of vital interest to every member of this society. After several minutes of furious pounding on the lower notes of the piano, Dorothy managed to procure the attention of nearly half the mem- bers. Girls, she cried in stentorian tones, Our next meeting is going to be a great event in the life of this society. As you all know, the books containing the history and minutes of this club were mislaid or purposely concealed by our predecessors. Since then, we have had no knowledge of how or why this organization was be- gun, or what, at the present time, it is supposed to be. Well, at last, we have found a clue to these important documents. Here the room became al- most quiet. We have been informed that Louisa -Somebody, who was at one time secretary of this organization, left all of the society's notes, etc., with her American History book in a locker on the second floor. At the next meet- ing we will disclose to you whatever we have discovered concerning the matter. Slim's heart beat wildly as he thought of the bulky book in his sec- ond-flor locker, but his reveries were soon interrupted. Madame President, begged an ap- pealing voice, I've got a date for to- night and I've gotta hurry. I move that the meeting adjourn. I second the motion, was the un- animous response. All in favor say 'aye'. Aye, roared a deafening chorus of Maj' 27, 1932 voices and the girls thundered out of the room. Slim felt amazed andvbewildered. But above all he felt curious. He was dominated by an intense desire to know what might be the history of such an organization as he had just visited. In the locker he found the book. It proved to be an American History book and was accompanied by docu- ments of various sizes and descrip- tions. Slim hurriedly slipped both book and papers under his coat. A school is no fit place in which to peruse mysterious manuscripts. Once at home he dropped into an easy chair by the fire. Opening the topmost paper, he read something to this effect. We have organized our- selves on this day as the - Literary Society. Full upon Slim's ears smote the remembrance of the hopeless sounds and unintelligible words to which he had that day listen- ed. With something closely akin to tears in his eyes, he tossed book, papers, and all into the blazing fire. Ignorance MUST be bliss, he mut- tered to the atmosphere.

Skiing Through Africa Terrance O-Sullivan In this travel review Mr. O'Sulli- van gives us a vivid, breath-taking, and blood-curdling tale of that icy wilderness, Africa, the land of igloos. Starting from the capitol, Rosedale, O'Sullivan begins his safari to that unknown center of the interior, Wal- do, a journey begun by airplane and auto and finished by bicycle. Mean- while, he defeats a large band of Chi- nese headhunters, who are on the war path for scalps. Plunging fearlessly into the myriad tangle of the steppe region, he encounters tigers, field mice, white horses, and innumerable others of Africa's denizens, encounter- ing adventures that would have daunted a less experienced statesman, but with his characteristic ability he thrusts aside all opposition and pushes onward to his goal-Waldo, the un- touchable. We, the editors, feel sure that this gripping panorama of Ant- arctic life will be read with great en- joyment by all of the intelligentsia of which, naturally, you, dear reader, are one. Freeman's Principles of Art Criticism This volume is Juan Freeman's latest work in the field of literary achieve- ment. From his infancy Mr. Freeman has breathed an atmosphere of culture and art. Freeman's work is devoid of any spiritual, philosophical, or phil- anthropic pretentious. It exists for itself alone, and persistently rings of youth, sunlight, and supple rhythmic forms and contours. Mr. Freeman il- lustrates his own books and in his present volume he has as portraits: The Blue Boys, Catching Min- nows, Boy Chasing a Butterfly, Education's Progress, and numer- ous other pictures posed for him by charming boys and girls of Southwest. Array 27, 1932 George Washington As I Knew Him By John Pritchard. Again Mr. Pritchard scores, this time with a ,dramatic and epoch- making story of George Washington. This novel takes us from Washing- ton's early boyhood in England, through his emigration to America, his discovery of gravity, the death of his brother in the Trojan war, and his own death at the Battle of Waterloo where the Austrian general, Cicero, defeated Washington's crack Cossacks. This volume is only one of Mr. Pritch- ard's many great novels, among which are: International Presteknlenderem Alterbgemsonelogskalesonbeg, Eat- ing in Eight Languages, Uncle Tom's Cabin, The Vicar of Wake- field, Pansies, Psychology of a Sick Mouse, and his greatest work, The Hair of the Dog that Bit You. We promise that the mystery and sus- pense. aroused by reading this book can be equalled by no other volume on the American market today selling for less than seventy-six cents.

O1'Il By MISS REPRI ZENTATION Qlteading time: Just no timmy HE office of the prominent theo- rist was a small room, modestly furnished in the stock room of the Holdtite Bolt and Nut factory. On the walls were a clock, a calendar, a litho- graph of a brain, and a map of Shanghai and vicinity. Behind a plain oak table sat a tall, gray-haired, cyn- ical appearing, immaculately dressed man-Brigadier General J. S. McGee, self appointed head of a bureau of sci- entific investigation of economic, so- cial, and political problems of educa- tional institutions. General McGee sat up straight in his chair, an imposing figure, genial, yet firm, a commander so sure of his authority that he knew he had no need to display it. His right hand fussed with a pencil. I had heard that it is a habit of his as he reads or dictates to one of his delightful secretaries to putter with a pencil or a paper knife, occasionally jabbing it into the desk or listener to emphasize a point. As I started to question him, he tilted back in his chair, and hammered his teeth with his pencil, setting afloat his mental dreadnaughts upon a sea of thought. U Since you are an observing investi- gator of conditions everywhere, will you tell me how you compare prevail- ing conditions and events at my South- west High School with other current world problems ? I asked. He dropped the pencil, stuck his thumbs in the arm-holes of his vest, locked his hands across his chest and snorted, I'll do my best, and if it's not what you want, don't use it. And now J. S. proceeds fby now we were calling each other by our first namesj. First, the gravest danger to your students is speed, the synonym for youth. I should like to show you, Ig- natz, what an integral part speed plays in the daily life of many of your classmates at Southwest. I should be greatly interested, in- deed, I replied eagerly.

He breakfasts hurriedly, and it is now 8:26. He dashes to his motor car, steps on the starter, and with a loud blast of his boop-boop-a-doop horn, he screams out of the driveway and into the street. Narrowly missing a pedestrian, he rounds a corner on two wheels, for it is now 8:28. The motor chokes-out of gas. He was in too much of a hur- ry last night to get any. He races to the nearest telephone, and imme- diately, at breakneck sped, a truck is sent from the gas station. The tank is filled, bill charged, and he speeds on to a sharp halt, the smell of abestos and burning rubber assuring him that the brakes still work. He rushes from the car into the school building. He dashes toward his class and, just as the bell rings, he falls over the threshold. He hurries to his teacher with his al- most breathless excuse. He slips into his seat and then realizes that he left his papers for this class in his locker. He hurries to his locker, forgetting, we note, to ask the teacher's permission. Again he enters and falls into his seat. His paper in geometry is handed in, and, as his older brother is a math expert, he expects it to be correct. The teacher is busy explaining a difficult theorem to the class. Now he will have a little time to get his Latin. As the teacher rambles on in nis usual harmless way, our hero medi- tates. He wonders what he will do after school today. Of course he will first go to the drug store, but that takes only a part of his afternoon. Also, he wonders if he is developing studious habits, for last night he studied nearly fifteen minutes before he went to sleep. He figures that since his dad pays taxes he is certain- ly entitled to some privileges around school, so why can't he go to the drug store to eat lunch? Our hero abrupt- ly awakens when the teacher hits him with a piece of chalk. He lets loose a profound and intellectual 'I don't know' and then returns to his dream- ing g and, as he slumbers, the sonorous voice of the teacher strikes his ears and he makes the learned statement, mentally of course, that there is not a teacher but likes to hear the sound of his own voice floating out over the classroom ladened with his own ideas or, if he has none of his own, as is usually the case, the ideas of others which heihas copied so carefully and Hlland 7779 KTNG S UDllUS Complete llnteriors Upholstering Draperies A Slip Covers Furniture 12 West 63rd Street Kansas City, Mo.

Now he realizes that the teacher is talking about how terrible the noise in the lunchroom is, he is worried about the order in the halls, he, the teacher of course, thinks that the present gener- ation is woefully lazy and lacks entire- ly the powers of thought. Our hero wonders if that non-existence of thought was not present in the teach- er's generation. Then, as our big handsome brute slumbers peacefully, the teacher pulls some terrible pun and our Romeo awakes to laugh 'with counterfeited glee? Then the teacher tells a tale of the past, and, as he gazes down the cor- ridor of time, our hero gazes down the corridor at a composite of Cleopatra, the Empress Josephine, and Helen of Troy. The image of all this charm and wisdom of the ages is a little freckled faced Junior who has man- aged by dint of terrific study to raise her grade average to I-. The end of the hour approaches and our hero is wide awake, for the zero hour is near. All the pupils sit tense- ly in their seats, with their books gathered under their arms, their faces tightly drawn, and their eyes wide with anticipation. They are listening but, alas, not to their teacher. They look at their watches and their nos- trils flare and muscles contract, for in only half a second they are to make a dash for freedom. The bell rings and forty human beings 1 ?J are catapulted into the hall and sent on their ways to their lockers. The combination locks require but a moment of thought, for they are either left open or are one point from open. This is the lull be- fore the storm. The doors swing open, the doors swing shut, scores of bat- teries of artillery firing at will. Friends meet and talk and talk over nothing. All else is forgotten. Again the bells, again the charge, an offen- sive that makes the football team look like daisies. Stragglers gallop up and down the halls in frenzied search, in the rooms the dull roar of conversation begins to lessen, and thus our hero be- gins his second hour. So you see, Ignatz, a typical start of a senior's day, although I have omitted many of the more succulent parts. Yet if it were not for this queer conglomeration of protoplasm, called a senior, what would the world be today -I ask you. Nothing, I answer, for the senior is the hope of t0m0I'1'0W, the Jfiberty budding bud of the future, 'the first, the last, the best, the greatest part of old Southwest'. Before I forget about it, Ignatz, if it's all right with you, I'd like to touch upon military affairs. ' I was just going to suggest that, I replied. The military viewpoint of our schools today is positively alarming. Why, when I last made a visit to re- view your Southwest Boy Scouts, I mean R. O. T. C. military group, back in '26, you had only about four officers and over five hundred pri- vates. And now, this declaration tears my heart strings, you have over five hundred officers, colonels, captains, lieutenants, sergeants, and belt in- spectors and only about four enlisted cadets. Since the officers can drill this army only one at a time, the other officers have nothing to do and in these times of unemployment-tish, tosh. Why, do you know that just the other day I passed your school and saw your officers innocently skipping rope, discussing who would be Queen of the May, and having just a jolly old time, when, lo and behold, out from the basement door popped the head of a private, and with a terrific a lo ris 'I' Dresses Dry Goods Notions Men's Furnishings 'I' 112 West 47th St. At the Country Club Pla-za LOGAN 1427 Whenever U Insur Whatever U Insur it to main H89 and Feel Safe 40 A Place . . .

In their eagerness to command him and tell him what to do, they handled him rather roughly, and the last I saw of the poor private was little pieces of khaki cloth scattered about. I-Iowever, to cap the climax, shades of Napoleon, girls dressed out in capes and things, more officers I suppose, marched around getting bouquets and acting patriotic. Ignatz, I can't go on, the mere thought of this Y. W. C. A., I mean R. O. T. C., deterioration brings tears to the eyes of a veteran soldier who likes his army made up of pri- vates, not generals. But of course when the Yellow Peril invades us, these R. O. T. C. boys will be the floating ribs of our army. Have you anything to say about finances in these times of depression, on J. S.. Well, world finance and War debts as applicable to you at Southwest naturally refers us to that super- human task of collecting club dues and totaling the budget. Why, if President Hoover had to total the budget or col- lect the dues of one of your Lit Clubs just once, he'd figure these hard times just pipe dreams. As I understand it, the underclassman usually pays his dues and the senior promises to pay his, but on the day of reckoning the senior is absent and his dues drag. Then he graduates after six or seven years, and, of course he comes back and pays his dues afterwards-but look at the interest you lose. Oh, Ig- natz, woebegone is the treasurer of any club anywhere anytime, but a Lit club treasurer trying to collect from a senior is the acme of despondency. Ma.y 27, 1932 Dues roll in like slow molasses and debts pile up like dandelions multi- ply. But after all, what is money? Oh, nothing, much. Of course I can't mention politics, but that it brings your congress to my mind. I feel obligated to give your student council a little belated praise, for didn't they almost quit talking about that insiduous clock in the lunch room, didn't they get you a stop sign for school fand if they forgot to have it painted on one side that does not make much differencejg didn't they have their pictures taken so you could gaze at their grave countenances whenever you open the Sachem, didn't they improve to a wonderful extent the lights in the halls, didn't they solve the lock problem in a miraculous way? Yes, they did, and I think that you should give them a big hand. Don't fail to omit my laudation of the support your student body gives to their elected officers, your senior class especially. One morning when I vis- ited your school one of the officers spoke at a senior meeting and there wasn't one sound-there was just one huge roar. The whole-hearted way in which the Seniors bought jewelry stirred my soul, together with the sat- isfying manner in which they backed sports: by not going to the games. But never let it be said that I spoke a harsh word against them. Perish the thought. And perish it did, for just at this point, much to our regret, J. S. re- membered that he was due at a con- ference with the principal of my very own high school, Southwest, just ex- actly one hour ago.

QUESTION: I have just recently bought a com- bination lock for my closet door but because of the dark- ness in the hall I am unable to open it. What must I do ? -from N. E. Corridor. ANSWER: Why, my dear young man, it's simple. First of all a kit of tools should always be kept in the locker for this purpose. We suggest that it consist of a crow-bar, a sledge hammer, an anvil, a pair of manicure pincers and a welding machine. The crow-bar is used to open the locker in which these tools are kept, and the pincers are used to pry the lock from the locker. The lock is then dropped on the anvil and the sledge hammer is not needed to remove the casing from the lock. When the vital organs of the lock have been duly laid open, arrange them so that the lock may be opened by turning the dial to ten, back seven times to twenty-seven, then clockwise to three. The case is then welded back on and the tools placed in the locker. Now in order to work the combina- tion, have it brought up in the student council that the halls be lighted between classes. Tush, how perfectly simple. QUESTION: For various and sundry reasons I have been late to work five times in the last month. The boss invariably sends me to the main office to fill out a blank admitting I'm late. These cards have proved to be very unlucky. Is there anything I can do to avoid getting them? -Ima Dreyerite.

It should consist of a forge, an anvil, a drill press, plenty of channel iron and rivets, a tack hammer, and a pair of crutches. Then when you see that you are late on the job all you have to do is to remove your outfit to the elevator opening on the same floor as the office to which you belong and commence operations. The forge is started up and in order to erase all suspicions it would be wise to break a pane of glass out of the elevator door through which the chimney of the forge is thrust. If that is done, the fumes will all go out the elevator shaft and no one will ever know what is going on. The doors are now removed, holes bored through them in six or seven places and the channel beams correspondingly perforated. After putting the doors back up, push rivets through the holes already bored and pound tight with the tack hammer. Now all that has to be done is to replace the tools in the locker and hobble through the door and to the desk on your crutches. When the boss demands the admit simply tell him the sad story of some accident and inform him of the condition of the elevator. If he still resists and decides to send another person to the office, quietly saunter over to the door, incidently mangle the phone, slug the mes- senger with your crutch as he passes through the door, and jam the door lock so that all further passage is impossible. T. h. p. s. QUESTION: Dear Mr. Cracker: It's high time that someone should solve the hot problem of cooling off. Right now in this office, out of thirty-six employees, two have been put into cold storage, seven are visiting their Eskimo relatives, eighteen have taken up aeronautics, and eight have joined the navy, leaving two of us to do the work of thirty-six. If doing the work of eighteen means we get eighteen times as hot, I am at this moment sizzling at about 20000 F. Can you think of anything that would knock off about a thousand of those degrees ? -I. M. Ott. ANSWER: M. d. m. i. s. First of all, some equip- ment should be kept in the locker for this purpose. We suggest that it consist of two pencil sharpeners, four sheets and two airplane propellers. As a preliminary exer- cise change the scale of the thermometer and thus reduce the temperature to about 10790 C. Now to get rid of that other 790 the pencil sharpeners are installed on the edge of the desks and one of those pencils, which is just a little too large, is stuck in the sharpener. Fasten the propeller on to the end of this pencil and let her go. When you get a little warm cranking the handle, take one of the sheets, wipe the perspiration from the brow and tie it onto one blade of the propeller fthe sheet not the perspirationj. Then when you crank the propeller you will not only get that first delightful breeze but also the cool zephyrs from the wet sheet. Here is a method that is inexpensive, unique, and ever cooling. T. h. p. s. QUESTION: I had always been under the impres- sion that America is a free country but I'm beginning to change my mind. From an autoist's viewpoint, the only thing that's free is air.

The afore mentioned equip- ment would consist of two little boards four inches thick by eighteen inches wide by twenty feet long. These boards are laid perpendicular to the side of the car which is fill- ing the space you want to occupy. Now raise one end of each plank and set it on the top of the car. The restiis easy 3 simply drive up these planks and park on the top of the other car. For better appearance it would be well to turn your car around on top of the other car so that they will be faced in parallel directions. Then in the event that the man whose car is on the bottom should want out before you, he has a choice of four things to do. He can run your car back down the planks and park it in the place he's leav- ing, run it by means of the planks onto the car ahead of him, in the same manner push it onto the car behind him, or lash your car to a nearby tree or lamp post and drive out from under it. Notice, please, Mr. Thon, how consid- erate we have been of all parties concerned. T. h. p. s. QUESTION: I am just a poor school boy trying to get along. My very existence has been threatened by little things called assignments. I can misunderstand them, I can forget them, and I can lose them but still they are my Waterloo. How can I do away with them entirely? -Ike N. Ditch. ANSWER: Why, my dear boy, it's simple. F. o. a. s. e. s. b. k. i. t. l. f. t. p.

QUESTION: It has been my misfortune to become one of those unlucky souls whose duty it is to promote the sale of senior jewelry at my high school. But now that it's my job, I want to make a success of it. How would you suggest that I go about to sell the jewelry which will probably be delivered approximately two days before graduation?

Now then, call a meeting of your senior class, using the sledge hammer as a gavel, and announce that the price of spinach has dropped in Porto Rico. This is code for How much jewelry do you want? The answer will be Dad has a hole in his pocket which is not code for none, Seeing your problem, you hang the three year old calendar in the display case and then go get the sledge hammer and the full pocketbook. On your return you find the seniors clustered about the calendar thinking they are freshmen because, of course, the calendar is three years old. Now is the time. They all want the jewelry but they haven't the money. Therefore, take the trusty sledge and cool them one by one. Ah, there now, take the full pocketbook, give them all enough to buy their jewelry, and be ready with the order blanks as they awake. T. h. p. s.!

It is impossible for us to imagine the tragic plight of such a lovely young lady as Freddie Boone CNO. 225, but all those who have been pledges or English lit. students will readily sympathize with L.

No. 24 depicts the normal development of a Ruskin, with Howard Dunham as the last step in the process of head-swelling. A noted biologist took No. 14 for us. He calls it a peaceful home scene of a happy Zend-Avesta family. No. 9 shows us a harmless Baconian pastime with Pete Hirsch as the central figure. The brave fellow in No. 8 is Tom Robinson.

She came across, among other treasured articles, a photo- graph of her high school graduating class, of which both she and Zandy had been members. Mil giggled continuously until suddenly Zandy appeared and demanded an explanation for the sudden outburst of mirth during the sullen days of the depression. Soon Zandy's face broke out with a very wide grin. Where on earth did you dig this up? he inquired. Isn't it rare ? responded Mil. Oh mama! This is the best picture I've seen of you in ages! he roared. Those home-made curls-and would you look at the ruffles-and- Is that right? said Milg Well, what about that bundle of self satisfaction in the left-ha.nd corner? Mil- , gasped Zandy, don't you ever dare to bring this out before company. But instead of trusting Mil with it, he suddenly rushed out of the room, the picture in his hand and Mil at his heels. Mulysses and Jwen meanwhile had been raiding the kitchen for doughnuts, and after they had filled their mouths and every pocket they ran up to the attic to dis- pose of their booty. Gosh, said Jwen, with her mouthfull of stolen cake- look here at these clothes, Mulysses. TH MAN Aw, I'd rather play cowboy than 6712? dress up again said Mulysses between bites. 1 Yeah, said Jwen, but gosh, we don't have this oportunicky every day. This wot? replied Mulysses, doubting Jwen's voca- bulary. 4'You know, said Jwen, what knocks on the door only ya can't see or hear it S? Oh, said Mulysses, satisfied with her explanation. Awright, les dress up. , Zandy's coat hung like a bag on Mulysses' small shoulders, and with the belt drawn up, Mulysses' mid sec- tion closely resembled the neck of a bottle. Jwen had arrayed herself in Mil's dress with the many ruffles. From her mother's dresser drawer she had suc- ceeded in procuring powder, rouge, and lipstick, which she now proceeded with great diligence to smear upon her bright young face. Now we're seniors, said Jwen sophisticatedly, as she surveyed Mulysses with a disgusted look. Now hold your nose up high, look brave and tough, act nonsherlunt, be-. Jwen and Mulysses, shrieked Mil's voice up the attic stairs, come down here right this minute, you've been into my doughnuts again. Gosh! Mulysses managed to gasp, while Jwen's nose came down with such a sudden jerk that Mil's compact leaped from her lap and shattered on the floor.

ARCHIBALD BLISS fRCCLd'i7Zg time: Lost timej EDITOR'S NOTE: The feverish search for informa- tion grows apace. People seem to be in a questioning mood, assuaging their thirst for boundless knowledge at the wells of synthetic waters. Learned and semi-learned purveyors are enriching, if not the reader, themselves with volume after volume of closely packed and loosely gath- ered stores of knowledge. Informatis reduvivus, CYes, we know our Virgilj. It is with the greatest pleasure, therefore, that the editors of this Jiberty present this brilliant article with contributions not from compilers of fat books on civiliza- tion, not from tourists in the fallow field of philosophy, not from tracers of the outline of knowledge, but only from poor, innocent, harrassed blunderers, trying to find the right answers to the most uncivilized of mental tortures- the recitation and the exam. To the doubting Thomasses who read this department and do not believe it as actual mistakes we have only the profoundest contempt, nay, antipathy. They are the Tommies who in school go around disillusioning their fel- low pupils with modernist propaganda against Santa Clause's reindeers and George Washington's cherry tree. In closing, or rather opening the department that fol- lows, let us tell a tale which might prompt you to temper a too harsh judgment on the mental sins of these young. A youngster arrived home from school with a garish F on his exam paper. His mother demanded to see the ques- tions which he had flunked so ignominously. She read the examination paper carefully and, turning on her child with a withering look, dismissed him with the comment: You must be an absolute maroonf Therefore, let him who is without sin laugh contemptuously at what follows. The editors feel that they should first tell you some- thing of Dr. Archibald Bliss, the intrepid explorer, who, with two companions braved the dangers of a modern high school to bring to the attention of our country a Warning concerning education. - Dr. Bliss will tell you in his own inimitable style about the educational pitfalls of modern youth by taking you with him on his tour of the school. Dr. Bliss makes you experience the actual hardships and dangers of his journey. And now we present to our readers Dr. Bliss, who will carry on. ,iq ,,, My dear reader, we all know that Ubrevity is the soul of wit, etc., etc. fThe editors apologize to Dr. Bliss for having at this point cut approximately ten thousand words.J We will start with mishaps of embryo humorists in Eng- lish classes. In a Junior English class that the author and his companions attended last year, the following took place. Viaduct was defined as a verb meaning to steal a child for ransom. A biblomaniac was said to be a dope fiend, while mutability was the state of not being able to speak when spoken to. But it remained for the little girl in the front seat to break the teacher's heart by asserting that a dirge is a kind of cloth used in mourning. Yet, if you pity the poor Juniors, meditate over these products of slushy brains exhibited by several superior English Lit. pupils. Cinema was classified as a kind of spice used on buns, mirage as a protective fire sent up by the artillery, and a radio as an invention by which sounds are broadcast. The Compleat Angler was thought to be a book on geometry and trigonometry. Poetry is when every line begins with a capital letter and it sometimes rhymes. Duncan is the villain in the 'Mill on the Floss' by Zane Grey. Chaucer was a great English poet who wrote literature and also poems and books. But, dear reader, don't think that these are exceptions, for many another promising pupil has contributed his share. For example, one said that an antiquarian is a person inter- ested in fish, and another that an anthology is a book on bugs. Next, the door of a history class was battered in and we listened to the wisdom gained through many years of intelligent and vigorous study. We heard the teacher speaking, and then, like a slap in the face, the recitation hit us. When asked who Julius Caesar was, someone an- swered that while he wasn't sure about the first name he knew that Bob See's dog was called Caesar. This unfor- tunate student was looked upon with utter disgust by his buddy across the aisle who answered the same question by asserting that Caesar discovered America in 1492. In dis- cussions that followed, it was decided that Christianity discovered England in 84 B. C., and that the Romans entered London in a wooden horse. Little Johnny in the back row made his failure a certainty by slyly observing that if there hadn't been a French Revolution, France would probably still be a Republic. This started a riot, H ml V x M . wi I gi I I I N 1 . Sweeten , l the day f , with I candy . 9 X 4 3 1 i It CANDY 1 makeyagnlennia' E l q . I ii 4, V lf Dessert H -ESPBCIJII6' J' you wan! to reduce!

Here are some samples of brilliant answers: Where was Henry the fifth crowned ? On the head. Discuss the trouble in the far East. It's not far enough. Indians is a name given to the in- habitants of India by Theodore Roose- velt when he discovered-them in 1'798. Secession is the shock you get when something hits you on the head. Na- tionalism is the theory that if you don't grab it some other nation will. And then the climax, a paper marked excellent in which we read that Paul Revere was the one that started to carry the good news from Ghent to Aix but when his horse saw the horse of John Gilpin he turned wild and went so fast and far that the British Red Coats mistook him for the High- wayman and had he not thrown Paul from his back as he passed through Lexington the French Revolution would probably have been lost. Sur- roundings darkened, ear drums ting- led, and we awakened upon a cot in the emergency room. But never has a Bliss lacked courage, moral, or other- wise, so we bravely marched on to in- spect a sociology class. Here an oral test was going on and, feeling that some of the answers were slated for posterity, we wrote them down for you, gentle reader, to peruse. We heard that sabotage was working on Sunday, that the Reds in America are a pale pink, that more deaths are caused by political campaigns than by motor cars, that Mussolini is the world s heavyweight wrestling cham- pion, that a I-Ii-Y'an is a native of Hawaii, that a revolution is an old Spanish custom and that Congress ad- journs about the time the regular cir- cus season starts. A most remark- able class, indeed, we thought, especi- ally after we heard its decision that this is the eLizzibethan age of auto- mobile history. Then we wandered into another class room farther down the hall where a brilliant recitation was tak- ing place. We didn't catch the name of the subject, but perhaps, if we give you a portion of what we heard, you can figure it out for yourselves. It was said that latitude tells you how hot you are and longitude how cold you areg that the climate of Green- land is such that its inhabitants have to live elsewhere, that the Arctic circle is an imaginary line running . May 27, 1932 around the center of the earth, that the North Pole is on top of the South Pole 3 and that axis is the giant who carried the earth on his shoulders. Finally someone stated that since New York was discovered later than Green- wich there is consequently a great difference in the time. We next approached a class room in which a very learned discussion on Science was taking place. The teach- er stated that a meteor is an instru- ment that records gas footage, and that rhubarb is a kind of'celery gone blood- shot. The pupils, incensed, booed and hissed him down, they in turn taking up the fight by stating that the hu- manity of the air seldom reached 100 per cent, and that larvae are the streams of molten rock that come out of volcanoes. The teacher returned to the attack and cleared the field by stating the fact that midnight oil is now burnt in the cylinder instead of the lamp chimney. In our mad rush for the exit we mistook a window for the door and plunged four stories to the pavement below. My brave com- panions both perished but I, Archibald Bliss, of the Kansas City Blisses, fought that mad spectre, Death, that I might bring to you, the people of America, a warning of the insiduous forces today loose in our educational institutions.
