CLUBS SCHOOL LIEE LL:A Eight THE CHANGING WEST By PAUL ARTZ When the West of today was danger and waste, And Indians and buff'loes o'er wide prairies raced, Our forefathers ventured out over these lands, And swam the wide rivers and trod desert sands. They drove through broad valleys and over high peaks And often went hungry for many hard weeks, Month after month and year after year, They suffered these hardships unharrassed by fear. No more can be seen of their old wagon trails, Today they are covered by highways and rails. The broad rushing rivers which guarded this land, Are now by long bridges and ferry-boats spanned. The Pony Express no more rides the great plains, The mails are now carried by airplanes and trains. The bold pioneers put their wagons away But great in their place stands the West of today.

Twenty-one Twenty-two CENTURY By WILMA GIDEON Ah me! when I stop to think What Shakespeare did with pen and ink I wonder how his ink was made4 If blue or purple was the shade, His pen-broad-nibbed and rather stiff, Like this, or fine? I wonder if He tried a Parker, thirty-nine, Or used a Shaeft'er pen, like mine? Or was it brains? No ink, I know, That really makes ideas flow, Nor can the most ingenious pen Make writers, poets, out of men. He used his pen and ink with brains Or so the teacher now explains. Mine is the harder task, I think, To write with only pen and ink.

Jack Haisley PIKE GOES WEST By JANE JACKSON The picturesque Santa Fe Trail, as we know it today, is comparatively the same as the route Don de Onate took in 1598 in his search for Coronado's lost country of Quivira. This is largely suppositional, however, as docu- mentary evidence concerning the trail was destroyed in the Great Pueblo Revolt of 1680. The vivid and romantic adventures of Zebulon Pike, an American soldier and explorer, some two hundred years later, supply the Hrst really authentic account of the founding of the Santa Fe Trail. Pike was sent out by General Wilkinson and Aaron Burr, who, it is believed, were plotting to establish a government independent of that of the United States, and also to conquer Mexico. Unaware of this plan, Pike launched his journey to the city of Santa Pe with the idea of exploring this unknown territory. Wilkinson was able to give Pike a reliable staff of men, consisting of two lieutenants, a surgeon, a sergeant, and sixteen privates. They set out from Belle Fountaine, just outside of St. Louis, on July 15, 1806, and followed the Missouri River up to the Osage villages, crossed into the present state of Kansas, and traversed the plains to the Pawnee towns in what is now Nebraska. Melgares, a Spanish leader, on a previous visit to the Pawnee towns had left a Spanish flag with the Indians. Pike followed Melgares' example and gave them an American flag. Thus, when the Indians spied Spaniards coming, they could wave the Spanish Hag over the settlement: when Americans ap- proached, they could replace it with the Stars and Stripes. The little crew proceeded to the Southwest, and in a few days arrived at the Big Bend of the Arkansas River. After passing Pawnee Fork, Pawnee Rock, and Ash Creek--several of which are now historically important-Pike and his band crossed to the south bank of the Arkansas River. Presently, Pike caught his first glimpse of a mighty, majestic mountain, which in glamor- ous splendor towered above all the others. This peak has since carried the name of this early explorer. It appears unusual that this particular mountain should be named for Pike, since he did not venture to climb it, but merely ascended a neighboring mountain to get the 'ilay of the land. Four weary months dragged by, and Pike and his men were experiencing a bitter winter in the Rockies. They were now in Spanish territory, and had been ever since they had crossed the Arkansas River. Suffering from the cold and on the verge of starvation, several of the troop were unable to go on, so Pike took the few able men and continued the expedition. On January 28, 1507, they broke out of the Rockies at Sand Creek. Viewing the Rio Grande, Pike announced that they had reached the Red River. He believed that he and his party were still in American territory. Now the villain steps forward! Dr. John Robinson had been to Santa Fe earlier with Baptiste La Lande, and had been mysteriously placed in Pike's company. Pike sent him to Santa Fe ahead of the troop. This was unfortu- nate since Robinson proved to be a spy. Pike built a fort while awaiting Robinson's return, and on February 18, a Spanish dragoon caught sight of Twenty-four ii the structure. Pike informed them that he planned to go down the river to Natchitoches, which was neither on the Red River nor the Rio Grande. Ten days later, two French trappers rode up to Pike's fort and reported the advance of a Spanish force. Pike willingly opened his gate and surrendered to Don Fernandiz. lt was then that Pike really found out he was on the Rio Grande River. The Spanish brought Pike and his company into Santa Fe in triumph and sent a rescue party for his men in the mountains. Pike was questioned by Governor Alencaster as to Robinson's relationship to the company. Robinson had been captured and had pleaded that he was with Pike's troop. This, Pike readily denied. The governor had Pike's trunk. examined, but he found nothing of any consequence since Pike had already distributed his important papers among his men. Immediately after the inspection, however, Pike collected these docu- ments and replaced them in his own trunk for safe keeping. Alencaster became more friendly and assured Pike that he was not a prisoner of war, although he would have to go before General Salcedo, commandant at Chilhuahua. The next few days, the troop amused the natives by answering their numerous questions, They wanted to know what kind of houses the members lived in, and whether the people in the United States wore hats or not, since Pike and his men had entered the city hatless. The party was accompanied part of the way to Chilhuahua by their captor, Don Fernandiz, who became a good friend of Pike. They proceeded to Santo Domingo, down the Rio Grande Valley to San Felipe, and here were enter- tained with an elaborate concert. At Albuquerque, entertainment and feasting awaited them. Near Atrisco, Pike encountered Melgares, who, instead of treating him as an enemy, was jovial and friendly. He even provided enter- tainment for them at San Fernandez. - Finally, arriving at Chilhuahua, Pike's troop received a cordial welcome from General Salcedo, who, after relieving Pike of his valued documents, which he had so cleverly concealed from Alencaster, sent the little expedition once more on its way back to the United States by the Texas route. The American Fort at Natchitoches was reached on July l, 1807-a year after the colorful journey was begun, Consequently, through Pike's adventur- ous spirit, new lands were opened to the pioneers, and a footpath was provided for those who later traversed the great Santa Fe Trail! THE STARS By VALERIE HORAN Tonight I looked into the sky To see what I could see, Ana' there I saw a million stars, All looking down at me. So then I looked into a pool To see what I could see, And do you know, I saw more stars, All looking up at me. Twenty-Hue CARAVAN S AND INDIANS By GLADYS MANEWAL Grandpa, you'll tell us a story won't you? begged two eager boys who were stalling for time. Now, don't you do anything of the sort, Father, rebuked their mother, They're going to bed this very minute and arguing will do no good! Oh, said grandfather, who took the side of the boys in his desire to repeat this story of his cross-country trip which practically everyone knew by heart, just this once, and then they'll go right to bed. Nothing can be done when three are against one. So mother just sat down eager to hear the old story herself, but reluctant to admit it. Well, it was many years ago that I ventured into the West, inhabited then only by fierce tribes of Indians and herds of buffalo. There seemed to be no end of work before setting out-supplies sufficient for four hundred miles were secured, firearms were thoroughly repaired, bullets were moulded, powder horns and cap boxes were filled, and all else was done to prepare us for this journey. So on an early brisk spring morning, we set out from Fort Leaven- worth with shouts of joy and tears of farewell. During the first miles from the fort to Council Grove, the journey was monotonous and without excitement. Here, at Council Grove, the caravans divided and organized. We selected a leader or 'Captain of the Caravan' to direct the order of travel during the day and to designate the camping ground at night. Gur captain was a grand fellow, sturdier and braver than any other pioneer I've ever known. Each division chose a lieutenant to inspect every ravine and creek on the Santa Fe trail, to select the best crossings, and to superin- tend the forming of encampments. From here on we dared not relax our vigilance for a single moment, for we were constantly in danger. 'AAlthough we began each day's journey before sun-up and traveled 'til night, we covered only ten to fifteen miles a day. Our nights were of deathlike terror, fearing that the Indians would sight us and attack. We arranged the wagons to form a hollow circle which constituted both an enclosure for the animals and a fortification against the Indians. i'When did the war-whoopers come? interrupted the eager boys. 'Alt was late one night when we had just retired that Indians' cries pierced the dead-stillness of the night. 'Comanchesl Arabs of the plains! Everyone to his postl' cried our captain. The war-yells came nearer and before we knew it they were upon us-circling and shooting as if we were animals. Shortly afterward everything was still. Death and sorrow reigned in our camp. The next morning we dug graves and made crude crosses for nearly half ofgour former number. It was near noon before we were able to continue our journey. Not long after this Indian attack, we encountered the Pawnees. Unlike the Comanches, these savages at this time cared not for blood, but rather for trinkets and nick-nacks. I well recall how one Indian wrenched from the captain's daughter a precious locket containing the only picture of her mother. At the end of their heartless raid, we scarcely had sufficient supplies to live. A'The weeks that followed were filled with one trial after another. Regions of quagmire delayed us for days because it was diflicult to extricate animals and wagons that sank deep into the mud. Our food supply became so low that we were forced to kill oxen for food. For two days we traveled with scarcely a bite to eat. Finally we thought we saw a herd of buffalo, but we were afraid to admit it for fear the desert was merely playing another trick on us. But our prayers were not in vain. The next day we distinctly saw the buffalo a little distance ahead. After a great feast and much rejoicing, we then continued. Twenty-six F . The small streams which we had to cross were even more dangerous than larger ones. I remember a small creek that had an exceedingly steep bank and a very miry bed caused us not only great difficulties but also took the life of a fellow pioneer. During the building of a temporary bridge, one of the men stepped into a bed of quick-sand and was gradually pulled beneath the surface of the water. This was the most gruesome death that l have ever wit- nessed. To see a man gradually go to his death and to be unable to help him is horrible. After staggering through a sand storm and encountering several other hardships similar to those l have already mentioned, we finally reached our destination. Considering the losses and suffering, sometimes l wonder if it was worth the effort. I guess it was. We helped found the Santa Fe Trail to the Golden West. Will you boys never grow tired of hearing the story of your forefathers? their mother inquired. The question remained unanswered for the two boys had fallen fast asleep, dreaming of the war-whoopers. THE FOUNDING OF THE TRAIL By B03 YYVJLF On the vast loom on which America's hi tory is being woven many great deeds are being worked into the fabric. As we gaze upon this intricate pattern our eyes encounter many valiant deeds. Some vivid, some rather dull, but without a doubt each bit of color and each strand of thread has its place in the pattern which is being spun as time weaves countless events into the design. Picturesque in the weaving of the colorful history of the western frontier are the exploits of Captain William Becknell, known as The Father of the Santa Fe Trail. True, the trail claims many parents: the Indians, nomads of the Great Plains, the Conquistadores, the Spanish, French, and Yankee trappers and traders. Apparently Captain Becknell did not actually discover the route though it is possible that he was the first trader to cross the treacherous desert of the Cimarron. It is certain that his wagons were the first to cross the conti- nent to Santa Fe. His fame can be traced to many sources but most eminent is the fact that once he opened the trail it remained open, The ruts left by the wheels of his crude wagons were followed and deepened by the western surge of travel which struggled in his wake: followed today by motor vehicles which travel over smooth highways, penetrating straight as an arrow, into the heart of the Southwest. Becknell was a dreamer who realized his dreams, But never in those vivid moments did he visualize the results of his trip into the wilderness which began on the first day of September, l82l, when he and his small party set out from Arrow Rock, near Franklin, Missouri. Little did he imagine that these plains- men, bent on an expedition for trading with the Indian tribes near the Rockies, would find their way to the town of Santa Fe. His route from Arrow Rock followed the main line of the trail, through Osage City and along the Arkansas River. Undaunted by the hardships which they encountered frequently, the party followed the main branch of the Arkansas Twen ty-se uen until October 21, when they turned up the left fork of the river. A little later the small band was struggling through Raton pass where for several days it labored at removing great boulders which blocked the Pass to the wagons and horses. Finally it got across and descended to the plateaus on the other side, reaching the turbulent Canadian River, and on November 12, Rock River. The following day Becknel1's party sighted a small band of horsemen who turned out to be a body of Mexican troops. Immediately they prepared for battle but were pleasantly surprised when they discovered the Mexicans were a friendly band who encouraged them to continue on to Santa Fe. Towns became more and more frequent in the path of Becknel1's men until finally on November 16, 1821, they entered the town of Santa Fe. Here they sold their limited stock of goods at very profitable prices. Early in December, with well filled money bags, they began their homeward trek. Seventeen days later they were back on the Arkansas and in thirty-one days after this they were home again. Never before had the people heard such tales of the unsettled wilderness. One of the men severed the thongs on his money bag. Large silver coins rolled out of the bag and into the street. The people saw these coins, not only as coins, however, but also as wheels rolling, rolling toward the West where riches, land, and new trade were to be found and possessed. On May 22, 1822, a year after the first expedition Becknell and a party of twenty-one left Arrow Rock on a second journey. This time they followed the former route to a point about Hve miles west of Dodge City. Here they left the Arkansas River route, striking off to the southwest across the Cimarron Desert, Although this route was somewhat shorter, the journey proved to be much more hazardous than the previous one. After days of suffering and hardship, Becknell and his followers reached Rock River where they joined the earlier trail and soon reached Santa Fe safely. Becknell had opened the trail which numerous others followed, some to riches, many to oblivion, and hundreds to their deaths! But all contributed to make a wilderness road which will live in the minds of our people as long as our country exists. The Santa Fe Trail is but a thread in this vast thundering loom on which history is being woven. Yet, there it shines, if we look closely, like a streak of light in a past of unsettled darkness. nur' L i Ji 1 Jack Hai:-Icy N , Twenty-eight l Y THE TRADERS VISIT SANTA FE By NANCY NICKLES The town of Santa Fe, at irst sight, was not particularly pleasant. Many people were and others would have been thoroughly displeased with it. It was, however, a welcome sight to the traders who had traveled some forty days over the dry, waste lands. As visitors entered the gates of Santa Ee, they were greeted warmly by girls with jet-black hair, flashing eyes: in turn flirtatious and haughty. The soldiers in their ill-fitting uniforms came running from all directions, while the Indians watched hopefully as the traders unloaded their wares from the East. Because all goods had to go through the customs house, there was keen competi- tion to get through this ordeal speedily. Often the men would race into town and have their business done before the rush of the day began. The town was centered about the plaza which, incidentally, was entirely without foliage. The principal building was the Palacio, the government seat, on the north. It was architecturally a part of the Presidio originally built as a fort. On the south of the plaza was a large military chapel. Those parts of the streets facing the plaza which were not occupied by oflicial buildings, churches, or the residences of the priests, were filled with the homes of wealthier inhabitants. La Panda, which marked the end of the trail, was not so finished a structure as were the hotels, but when traders were in town, the drama which it sheltered was to be matched in no other hostelry on earth. From the plaza radiated the smaller and poorer streets. On these streets the architecture was extremely simple, but not stilted. All the houses were whitewashed and offered a refreshing sight to the dirty, weary traveler. Though some of the homes were richly furnished, the vast majority were plainly alike. The floors were adobe, the walls were plastered with adobe and covered with an easily removed substance, gypsum. The ceilings were mostly uncovered beams, though some were covered with muslin and a few were painted. Every home had a fireplace, but most of the cooking was done in outdoor ovens. The furniture was as crude and simple as could be and still be called furniture. No system of education existed. Few could read, fewer could write. The only news was brought into town by caravans and the center of social life was the church. In spite of the fact that the people were wretchedly poor, they tossed aside cares easily and seemed perfectly happy and contented. The people of the time were noted for their never failing hospitality. The girls dressed in silks and satins, ginghams and lawns, embroidered crepe shawls, and many ornaments such as huge necklaces and jeweled combs. Even the poorer people, though they didn't have silks and satins, wore gaudy clothes and cheap jewelry. The girls painted then, and not sparingly with Hour paste for powder and Vermilion coloring for lips and cheeks. The men, also, with their silver spurs and colored sashes, were as lurid as their wives and sweethearts. Despite the free and easy manner of these Mexicans, the young people were strictly under the surveillance of their parents. Marriages were arranged by the parents and the feelings of their children were regarded as of minor importance. There were many types of dances. Some were thoroughly respectable: some less so. The fandango was for the common people, the baile for the more pretentious. There were also the ordinary waltz, a slow waltz and the cuna, in which two beautiful figures danced with arms locked and heads thrown back. Twenty-nine EQ 4 6.5 . ,.a , T , itie r .u . l Jack Haisleg From the governor down to the poorest ranchero, gambling was only a matter of course. Men imbibed excessively but there was very little drunken- ness. On Sunday afternoons their main entertainment was cock-fighting. This sport was enjoyed tremendously and because of the rivalry between the owners, street brawls often resulted. The traders usually stayed in Santa Pe for some four or five weeks disposing of their goods. Some stayed longer and waited to go back with the next group of traders, A few fell in love with the beautiful, untamed country of roving hills and plains. Others found it easy to fall in love with the alive beauty of the Mexican girls. With such a beginning this unattractive, though romantic town of the frontier has become a leading metropolis of the great Southwest. THE WATER FRONT By PHYLLIS CROW The rippling waves on a foggy night, The voice that echoes to and fro, The fog horn's solemn, distant moan- This is the water front I know. The churn of a big boafs stern Shakes the dock on which I stand. The ocean stirs, mighty, strange, Carrying ships to stranger land. And through it all the captain's voice Issues orders through the night. lVhile overhead the cool, damp Fog, has blocked the stars from sight. The last big ship glides in, With the help of a tugboat's grunt, flnd all is shrouded in darkness On the still, cool, water front. Thirty l pl .Inch Haisley CARSON AND CUSTER By JACK NANGLE The early days of westward pioneering brought into prominence many picturesque soldiers and plainsmen. Two such men were Christopher Carson and General George Custer. They were different in character and occupation, but they were alike in one respect: they pledged themselves to America. Of all the Western tales none could be found more thrilling than those of Kit Carson. He was born in l809 and brought up in a typical frontier country. He received an education only in scouting and trapping and at the age of eighteen Carson had acquired a wide reputation as a trail-blazer. After leading several expeditions along the Santa Fe trail, he was kept constantly busy as a scout-protector for bands of men and troops and was always in demand to provide the safest and quickest route for transferring the herds of prominent ranchers. One of Carson's most exciting adventures deals with his work as a scout for Kearny's troops during their campaign to recapture California from the Mexicans. The first event occurred a little outside of San Diego in about 1848. The Mexicans had outmaneuvered Kearny at every turn and he and his exhausted troops, including Carson, had retreated into a rocky slope. Their only hope lay in reinforcements from San Diego and naturally Carson was the man to carry the message. He took as a companion a youth named Beale, The two crawled down the slope of sharp rock and cactus, once brushing the leg of a sleeping sentinel. Even after they passed the last guard they were forced to wriggle fully two more miles: only Carson's calmness had kept them alive this long. Earlier each had removed his noisy army boots and as a result had to walk barefoot over the jagged rocks and scorching ground. By evening they were within a dozen miles of San Diego, which also was surrounded by Mexican soldiers whom they must pass. They separated in order to insure the carrying out of the assignment, Beale arriving first more dead than alive, soon followed by Carson. When the commander at San Diego received their report he immedi- ately marched to Kearny's aid, thus saving the starved troops from certain destruction. Before joining Kearny, Carson had been with Fremont as chief scout, lieu- tenant, and general right hand man. In this capacity he experienced many thrilling adventures. He fought with the Indians mentally as well as physically, outwitting them at times and outfighting them as well. , Carson was a man hard to describe but the best attempt seems to be that of Ned Beale: Wise of counsel, strong of arm, brave of heart, and gentle of nature. When this picturesque figure of the West died May 13, l868, one of our outstanding pioneers was lost. Custer was born in Ohio thirty years later than Carson. He worked hard as a youth, plowing and later teaching school. He Hnally gained admission to West Point where he left a brilliant record, graduating in l86l. When the Civil War broke out, he entered the Union Army and rose from the rank of Thing-one lieutenant to major-general of volunteers. In l866 he returned to the regular army and was constantly engaged in fighting Indians. He was a new and peculiar type of leader. Little formality prevailed when he drilled his troops. Little attention was given to strategy in fighting, Custer trusting to dash and courage. When at battle he depended upon unexpected wild charges, led by himself, that struck terror into his opponents. Many of his immediate superiors denounced him for his rough and unsavory methods and on more than one occasion he was seriously reprimanded for breaking regulations. But even then, he was one of the best liked and most successful of leaders. The position at which Custer gave his greatest service is the least known to the public. That was his maintaining of the Southwest patrols. His duty here was to clear out this section and protect the inhabitants and to this he responded brilliantly. Now he might strike at night and rest a while: then he would return at the most unexpected time, until he had the Indians in retreat. A good example of his fighting philosophy can be gathered from his affair with Black Kettle, an Indian chief. Early one morning he and his Seventh Cavalry set out after Black Kettle and followed him for three days. When the time to strike came, Custer divided the men itno four bands and proceeded to surround the unsuspecting Indians. When the command was given, the troops charged down in Custer's whirlwind fashion and soon laid the village to waste. These patrols did dangerous work. Seldom, if ever, did more than half of the original patrol return when sent out on a difficult task. Such was Custer's job. It is claimed he was really defeated but once in his life. This occurred at that desperate stand at the Little Big Horn. This battle, called Custer's Last Stand, was fought in Montana on the Little Big Horn, where he attacked a much larger force of Sioux Indians, led by Sitting Bull, and he and his men were killed. For once Custer had been unequal to the overwhelming task that confronted him. Much controversy has enlivened the discussion on what type of man Custer was. The fact that he was stubborn, rough, and carefree may be granted. That he was certainly one of the most courageous men that ever lived seems to be the least tribute one can pay him. So, it appears, we may record Custer's name along with the names of Carson, Pike, Fremont, Lewis, and Clark, and a few exalted others as the men who, as western pioneers, fought and gave their lives that we might live in peace and happiness. xX 'J Q l Virginia Goebel Thirty-tu.'o LIFT AND LEARN By Bos HILLER Brains does not mix with brawn, but don't get the idea I'm belittling education. But what I can't see is how a guy like Bevo-1 Well, look, judge for yourself: me and the wife, Bridgie, were camping in a Bronx flat during the carnival off season, wondering where our next pork chop was going to drop from. One day, out of a clear sky, I got a phone call from old Johnny Wilkie. Con, he said, hold tight while I drop a bucket of gold in your lap. I'm holding, I said. What's the racket? Know Bevo Sanderson? he asked. 'Sure I know him. Big muscle and tendon man. 'AWell, Johnny went on, here's the story. I've been managing him for years and I'm telling you he's one sweet meal ticket. But now I've got to quit. He's suddenly nuts about going abroad and showing his stuff. 'lWhy does he want to go abroad? I asked. I dunno. He just got the idea in his thick skull. Anyways I'll hand him over to you if you want him. Gee Johnny! I gasped. That's certainly white of you. Sure I'll take him. Less than 48 hours after the telephone call we were on the deep Atlantic. But Sanderson didn't know what we waited two days for. He was so dumb. I recall particularly one brilliant conversation I had with him on the boat: Hmm, I said glancing over the ship's newspaper. I see the exchange is only 15 francs to the dollar. Yeah? That ain't so tough. We can buy 15 times as much stuff in France as in the United States. No, Bevo, I murmured weakly. A dollar is a dollar. A franc is only worth one-fifteenth of a dollar. Oh, I get it. And how much is one-Hfteenth of a dollar worth? I closed my eyes in pain. Exactly one franc. Then for a dollar they give you one-fifteenth of a franc. That's near enough, I sighed. Then when we get back to the States, they'll give us S15 for every franc. Sure they will, if the whole country suddenly has gone crazy. Let's go get a beer, quick, before I go nuts. We planned to make Paris our first stop, because Johnny had arranged with an American agent to get Bevo a performer's permit, so we left the boat at La Havre and hopped a train for Paris. After a few hours we pulled up in a station in Paris. Half a dozen reporters chattered like a couple of monkeys on our side of the window. Bevo stuck his head out and the reporters scooted away like rabbits. We drove straight for the office of Sogartz, the agent. When the secretary saw Bevo she screamed and fainted. Sogartz ran out of his office plenty startled. After we brought the girl around with some water he congratulated me. Conway, he said highly impressed, you two are a success already. That is if this bird is as strong as he looks. For an answer Bevo calmly took hold of a door and ripped it off of its hinges with one yank. Here, here! I'm convinced, yelled Sogartz as Bevo reached for a desk. 'ALook, he said, your first spot will be a carnie upon Raspoil, above Montparnasse. Come along and I'll help you find a place to stay. May as well live on the Left Bank, it's near the carnie grounds. We found a little place on a little street called Rue Bren, only a stone's throw from the famous sidewalk cafes of Montparnasse. Thirty-three 4 The next day Sogartz and I went to the grounds and hired tent space, and had a bill board painted, and bought an old nag. In the afternoon Bevo, Bridgie, and I arrived at the grounds and saw the poster of an exaggerated Bevo, and a description of him. Sogartz came out grinning with satisfaction. Some sign, eh? he remarked nodding at the sign, It makes Bevo almost like the strongest man in the world. Almost? Bevo howled, taking hold of a parked coupe and turning it over right side down as the owner came up tearing out his hair and screaming in anger. Sogartz then gave him 100 francs and the Frenchman insisted on shaking our hands twice. It was cheap publicity all right. The crowd was wild to get a look at Bevo in action at two francs a throw, then and there. We showed a perform- ance as soon as he could get changed. The tent was packed when Sanderson, The Colossal, came out. Sogartz gave out a fast introduction and told Bevo to go to work. Bevo glared and took a thick iron bar and bent it as if it was a frankfurter. 'AA1most, he snorted, and juggled a couple of 50 pound cannon balls around. After a few similar pranks which kept the Frenchies astonished, we strapped a kind of belly-saddle on the nag we bought, and Bevo got under it and lifted it clean off of the floor. Not satisfied with that he turned to Bridgie and me and told us to get on the nag and he'd lift all three and whistle the Star Spangled Banner besides. Some and Bridgie got on and he lifted us all right but for the whistling we just had to take it for granted that it was the Star Spangled Banner. The day's take was S300 or more. The business kept up like that for three weeks or so when Miss Perkins, an old friend of Bridgie, came into the show. The next day Bevo, Bridgie, and I met Miss Perkins at the cafe on the corner. She was no crow as Bevo found out and started flirting with her right off. The big laugh was her size, she weighed probably as much as one of Bevo's legs and she was small. As we were leaving she asked Bevo to go on a city tour with her the next day. It would be educational for you, she murmured. Thanks, he gulfed, maybe it would. He was falling like a rock. That afternoon I saw that he didn't lift the horse as high as usual, and he had a dreamy look in his eyes. It was a good day for us, so why should I worry. The next day he tumbled out of bed, all pepped up for his rubber-neck jaunt. I-Ie must have seen Paris twice by the time he was gone. He showed up at three in the afternoon in a blissful delirium. Well, I grunted, 'Ayou shouldn't have hurried so. Why didn't you take a run down to the Riviera for a swim. We only missed two shows. GeeI he murmured dreamily. Gosh it was beautiful! We seen the swellest things-Napoleon's tomb, and casket, and everything! You didn't by any chance see Napoleon himself, did you? No, they had the cover down. But, gee, it was beautiful. All through the day Bevo was moody. I.ife's darkest moment came when Bevo scuffled into the room and said he was going to take two days off. Lay off, I yelled. What's the idea? f'Oh nuthin'-Only Lila's taking me to Louvra and Versaills tomorrow. I think its lovely, approved Bridgie. It will be very educational, I'm sure. But understand, big boy, I murmured, f'we're not getting payed for going to the Versaills. That's where lifting horses comes in. Thirty-four That evening I saw Bevo all dressed up in a tuxedo getting ready to go to the opera. Lila said you ain't lived till you see a opera. Why don't you tell Lila she hasn't lived until she lifts a horse. Aw, Con, don't be funny. Gee, maybe I could hold her hand tonight, huh? You don't think it will be too heavy for you, do you? The next day after pleading with him I finally got him to go to the show. But Bevo put on such an act that I probably could have done better myself. After the third show I lost my patience. 'For Pete's sake, I yelled at him, why don't you quit moping and marry the girl? A wild gleam come into his eyes. Gee, do you think she would? Gee, I think I'll try. - The next I saw him he was plunging down the boulevard like a drunken buffalo. When I reached home nobody was there so I could think in peace. After awhile when tired of thinking, I started reading. I just got in the spirit of the story when I heard a loud thumping on the stairs and the door flew open and Bevo, all 300 pounds of him, stood there, with a wild, grief-stricken stare in his eyes. 'iI'll show her! he roared, sobbing lightly. For heaven's sake, I gasped, what's the matter. MatterI he yelled. 'lShe threw me out, She said she wouldn't marry me. I'll show her. She'll be sorry. He stumbled about face and slammed the door behind him. There was a splintering crash of a banister being ripped off. I ran to the window in time to see him emerge from the street door below, sobbing like a wounded moose. He glared around belligerently and caught sight of an awning on the fruit shop next door. With one yank he tore it off and flung it in the air. She threw me out, he bellowed, and threw a delivery bicycle clear across the street. I stood at the window thunderstruck as he marched up Rue Bren, creating havoc on each side. He pushed over a taxicab: next it was the barber shop's turn-he shattered the window and pulled out a couple of suit forms, and heaved them across the street through a confectionary's window. She'll be sorry! he yelled as he ripped off a couple of doors. Finally I snapped out of my trance, grabbed my hat and rushed down- stairs, and nearly bumped into Bridgie. They got him, she screamed. The Police-they got him. Thank goodness, I said, heaving a deep sigh. i'I'll call Lila to meet us at the station, Bridgie murmured. When we got to the station we saw Bevo laying on the Hoor with a dozen frog coppers piled on top of him. Beverly Sanderson! Lila snapped. Aren't you ashamed? I didn't mean no harm, he whimpered. 'AI was just upset! He wiped the blood from his battered face. And why were you upset? she demanded. Well-uh-well, I guess because you said you wouldn't marry me. I never said anything of the sort, she said. But up in your hotel-well, you said you wouldn't, remember? I did not, she flared. I merely said wait till you get some semblance of an education. OhI Bevo's face brightened. 'AI see now. 'iBeverly, she sighed, you're impossible, but I guess I'll have to marry you for safety's sake. 'ABaby, he roared blissfully. You will? Thirty -fi ue On one condition: that you give up this strong man stuff and come back to New Hampshire to live. Lila, sugar were as good as home now. Congratulations and all that stuff, but where does Bridgie and me fit in? I piped up. Bevo thought for a second. I got it, he cried, 'iI'll hook you up With my brother Humphrey. He's the only man in the world stronger than me. I raised my eyes doubtfully. No kidding, Con. Back on the farm he used to lift things I couldn't lift. Hmm, I murmured. Any chance of his falling in love? Navy,-he's married, and got six children. And what does he think of education? Gee, Con. I never seen such a guy as dumb as him. Why one night he snuck out of the house and pushed the Whole school house in the creek. He can't even write his name, When we got back to the states I found Humphrey a better meal ticket than Bevo. The last We heard of Bevo he was jerking sodas in an ice cream parlor, and iinishing the seventh grade with high honors. Maybe he's doing better now than when he lifted horses, I don't know. WINGS By BOB TOPPING The sky is clear, the stars grow bright, I long for oceans free, And from my window gaze tonight And dream of ships at sea. Oh what strange star now sails so light Upon the ocean air, And what strange hum this windless night Is calling me out there? A plane flies smoothly through the night, A song my heart now sings- A ship at sea's a thrilling sight, But give me ships with wings! THE GLOW By Josie BAUDo A ruddy glow shines out upon the night, The neon sign makes ghostly shadows fall Upon the street. The trees assume a height Grotesque, and cast their shadows on the wall. The sun comes up. A tire hydrant stands, Its top a helmet shining in the sun. The flood light bathes, reflects, expands- The sounds of early morning have begun. Thirty-six THE N EW PATRIOTISM By VIRGINIA ANDERSON The life of the United States, or of any other democracy, is contingent upon the patriotism of its people. According to Webster a patriot is one who loves and serves his country. How can this love and service find the most worth- while expression on the part of American citizens? In 1939 we witness a great need for active patriotism, for our country is being threatened in a new and dangerous way. Our land is being invaded, but not by armed forces. Stealthy, almost imperceptible armies of foreign propagandists are working in every possible way to alter the principles upon which our democracy was founded. For one hundred fifty years Americans have patriotically fought to establish and preserve self-government, freedom of speech and press, and freedom of religious belief, to assure the right of assembly, the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness-all of which now are being endangered. The most dangerous of these invading forces are the isms : Nazism, Communism, and Fascism-all of them autocratic forms of government crush- ing the people under dictators. The agents of the isms are very thorough in their work. They follow a definite plan. The usual method is to create a minority problem by peaceful penetration. For example, thousands of Germans have settled in Brazil, becoming Brazilian. They can inffuence the economic and social side of Brazil toward Germany by not being absorbed by Brazilians, but by being strictly German. As they become more numerous and thus more powerful, they will even be able to influence the Brazilian government. Eventu- ally, with the aid of Germany herself, they may be able to control the Brazilian government. That is peaceful penetration. However, they may decide to use the tactics that were used in Czechoslovakia-complaining mistreatment of German minority. This gives the mother country a chance to step in, even though the reason be weak. The effectiveness of this new type of invasion has been clearly demonstrated in Austria and Czechoslovakia. There are people who actually believe that such a thing could never happen in the United States-who are so blind that they cannot see the evidence that such a campaign is being carried on in the United States this very minute. If the American citizens who shout lt can't happen here, do not wake up to the fact that it can happen here, it will happen here. The American people are placed at a decided disadvantage in the fight against un-American influences for two reasons. The first of these is that the very principles which the isms destroy protect them in the United States. It seems that we cannot violate the right of assembly and freedom of speech and belief, and simply outlaw people with isms tendencies. The other disadvantage is that in order to fight successfully this invading force the American people must cultivate an entirely new type of patriotism-a patriotism different from any that Americans have had to employ. The problems facing America in the past were entirely different from those facing the nation at present. The people met them differently, expressing their patriotism in a different way. For at least a hundred years this service or patriotism in the United States was expressed in terms of fighting and war. Until after 1812 the early Americans fought with foreign people, namely the pirates of Barbary Coast and the British, to force them not only to recognize the United States as being independent, but also to look upon her with proper esteem. Between that time and the Civil War, the thoughts and energies of the people were occupied with settling and developing the American frontier. As the different sections of the country were peopled, the inhabitants began clamor- Thirty -seven ing for recognition of their respective rights and problems, and the furthering of their own aims. Out of this sectionalism grew a new type of patriotism. It was an idea not of service to one's country, but service for one section. This type of patriotism was ultimately expressed in bearing arms during the Civil War. The close of the war between the states marked a turn from the old patriot- ism of blood, war, and fighting. During the period of expansion an unbeliev- able amount of corruption and graft had sprung up, and because of this condition many reform movements were started. People began serving this country by opposing unsound government. The Westerners joined the light against corruption through their progressive movement, the object of which was to take the government out of the hands of big business and return it to the people, and to accomplish general reforms. This movement continued until the World War, backed by men like Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson. The latter's progressiveness, terminated by the World War, gave the citizens of America their first chance to prove their patriotism by arms since the Civil War. The people had an opportunity to prove that the new type of social patriotism had not destroyed the old one of military service. Now in 1939, we must rise to the occasion as did our forefathers before us. We should develop a great national spirit, and a greater reverence for and belief in the principles Americans have fought and died for. Then we should express our nationalism, our patriotism, by taking an active, intelligent part in our government. Of course, we can't all hold oflice, but all can work together to see that the right man does hold it, and we can guard against any move- ment that threatens our liberties. This is the best way in which we Americans can express our new patriotism and our love for our country. WINTER AND SPRING By FRANCES RUP Wz'th arrogance he rushes in, A blustery fellow, he, Who takes the throne, and starts at once, To rule despotically.

Virginia Goebel Thirty-eight ' THE SAD HEART OF LITTLE TROTT By IRENE SHREVE A great sorrow has overwhelmed the heart of Trott. No one loves him any more at all. Well, perhaps, just a very little still: but it is not as it used to be. And when one has been petted and loved tremendously, that is not enough. Trott has a heart like lead: it is just as if he had eaten too much apple-tart. And today things have gone worse than ever. This morning Trott was taking his lesson with his governess, and he was grumpy. Although, as a rule, he is very polite, he said a word to her which was not quite proper. And father, who was coming in at the moment, heard it. Trott was not allowed to have any dessert. Alas! there was whipped cream that day. After luncheon Trott hurried out of the dining room, and slammed the door. His baby sister woke up and uttered a dismal howl. Mamma said, Trott is insufferableln That evening, when he returned from his Walk, it was almost dark. At such a time one has a melancholy feeling, and it is nice to be made over. Trott thought he would go and find his mother, and sit in his usual place in his own little chair beside her couch. He found the place occupied by little Lucy in her cradle. Mamma was so busy crooning and making pretty faces to the baby that she gave Trott scarcely more than one hasty little kiss. Trott felt very cold, and bruised about the heart. He went to the window and sat there quite alone, watching the night's slow descent over the garden, and feeling very hurt. And now papa comes in. He takes a seat close to baby girl, and says over his shoulder to Trott, Hello, my boy! Are you still sulking? And then he begins chatting with mamma about baby, who is clutching his finger. Trott hides himself in his corner. His wretchedness grows still deeper. It is certain now, absolutely certain, that no one loves him any longer. Hitherto, when he was naughty, they scolded him a little, and then it was over, they embraced him more than ever afterwards, so that he felt it was very good to have been scolded. But today they have scolded him severely, and have not caressed him at all afterwards. What shall he do? Oh, to think how they had once loved him-a great deal, ever so much! And when he had been ill-oh, they had loved him tremendously then! Suppose he were to fall ill now! Perhaps . . . It is an idea. Baby has been carried away. Nobody is looking. Father and mother are talking in a low tone. With a quick movement Trott gets up and stands on his chair. He leans both hands on the back and gives a strong push. The chair falls over with a frightful crash, and Trott rolls on the floor into the middle of the room. Mother utters a loud scream. Father rushes towards Trott and hurriedly examines his forehead. But mother wishes to have him to herself: she snatches him up, takes him upon her lap, hugs him, caresses him, and calls him all manner of dear and tender names. Trott cries with joy and with pain for he has a big bump on his forehead. How did you manage to fall over, poor little man? Trott cannot reply. He is sobbing too fast. At last he manages to blurt out, between two big sobs: I-did it-on purpose! Father and mother look at each other in bewil- derment. What can the boy mean? What is to be said to that? One must never tell a lie. Although it is difficult, with so many tears running away from his eyes, Trott tells the whole truth. He did it on purpose Thirty-mine because he wanted to know if mamma and papa really did love him any longer. He knew, of course, that they could not love him, being old, as they loved his sister, who was new. But he thought that perhaps they could still love him a little bit, He wanted to Hnd out. And now he is quite happy, he is very glad, although . . . The torrent of tears increases in violence. Mother passes a loving arm around Trott's neck and gently mops his burn- ing eyes, Father holds the little hands in his. They both smile, but it is a very tender smile. The music of their sweet and gentle Words begins to soothe Trott's heart, He is told something, too, which appears very grand and Wonderful in his ears. It is quite plain that he is loved just as much as ever, quite as much even as little Lucy. They love her because she is so weak and helpless. He is a fine, big, strong boy, and he must watch over baby sister, guard her and help her, because she has no strength. lt is Trott's duty to look after this baby. And they love him quite the same, most certainly, every bit as much. Papa lifts up his little son in his arms, presses a big kiss on each cheek, and asks, as he looks him in the face: Now, are you comforted at last, my little man? And Trott replies, his eyes still red, but with a smile on his lips, A'Yes3 but, all the same, I am very glad l made such a big jump! SEA-BATHIN G By MILDRED SHULTS When I am bathing in a tub I have to wash and soap and rub, But when I'm bathing in the sea, The kindly waves wash over me. Now this, I know, is very kind And surely I no fault should find, But still I think 'twould help a lot, If someone kept the water hot. Pa! Murphy Forty --Dvffflfinr Forty-one FOOTBALL The Southwest football squad reall-y played excellent football in view of the fact that this was their irst season. The whole team performed creditably throughout the year. As this was only a practice season, next year when Southwest enters the interscholastic football league, with all the same players on the team, we can expect them to give the other schools some stiff competition. SOUTHWEST--7: CENTRAL B -6 In the first game of the season Southwest's newly organized squad defeated Central's B team in a close batt e This victory was very encouraging for a team just starting out. In the Mud quarter Charles Eeeney scored a touch- down. He also converted the end point which later proved to be the decisive point of the game. I SOUTHWEST-13: SOUTH SIDE CATHOLIC UB -0 Coach Kittlaus sent in a bunch of hopefuls to do their best against the South Side Catholic Aneiys. The Southwest boys really showed their stuff as they held South Side scoreless throughout the game. Joe Messana madea touchdown in the first quarter and Warren converted the extra point. In the slfcond quarter Charles Feeney scored, but his kick for the extra point was b oc ed. UNIVERSITY CITY B -24: SOUTHWEST-0 The only night game of the season proved to be the worst defeat suffered by the new Southwest team. Nearly all of University City's touchdowns were set up by forward passes which the Southwest defense was unable to intercept. 'SOUTHWEST-18: McKINLEY B -7 Coach Kittlaus sent in a squad of boys who were anxious to redeem them- selves in the public eye after their defeat by University City. Well, the boys really proved themselves heroes as they downed McKinley for their third victory out of four games. SOUTHWEST-25: SOLDAN HB' '-9 The winning spirit of the McKinley game still possessed the Southwest team, as they trampled Soldan by a score of 25 to 9, Southwest played Forty-two Forty-three remarkable football, showing teamwork and headwork. Probably the most sensational play of the game was executed by Lewis Stibal, Southwest's right end. Soldan's passer was rushed by two Southwest tacklers and he threw the ball up in the air. Stibal came up, caught the ball and ran for a touchdown, which helped to clinch the game. CLEVELAND B -7: SOUTHWEST--6 In the last game of the season Southwest was forced to accept defeat from the Cleveland B team. Perhaps the absence of Southwests only fullbacks, Joe Messana and Charles Feeney, who, due to injuries, were unable to play in this game, marred Southwest's chances. At any rate, Southwests football squad made a good showing for their Hrst season with four victories and two defeats. With the same players next year Southwest should m e a ood show- ingya the interscholastic football league. Q UUE: l TRACK AND '1-11131195 7 At the end of the l938 track season we find Southwest with such stars as Buhler, Berrow, Gerhard, Hoock, and Winkler. In total points Southwest came out in fifth place, a very good showing for a new school. Roosevelt again took first place: Central, second: Beaumont, third, Cleveland, fourth, Southwest, fifth, McKinley, sixth: Soldan, seventh: and Blewett, last. Southwest came very close to winning the midget cup. Cleveland finally won it with a half point lead over Southwest. In the senior division, Buhler starred in the mile run, taking third place among stars from all over the city. Gerhard, junior l2O yard low hurdler, placed second in this event. Berrow, another junior, tied with Blewett and Beaumont in the high jump. Winkler was Southwest's real star. He was the only Southwest man to win any event. Winkler not only won the midget high jump, but placed second in the 50 yard dash, 75 yard dash, 6 lb. shot put, and broad jump. Hoock was another midget star who took third place in the 75 yard low hurdle. Southwest made a real showing when they took first place in the 440 yard relay. The team of 1939 should be very powerful since Coach Kittlaus will have all the same men on the team. Forty-four Forty-fire BASEBALL As the 1939 baseball season opened Coach Young had a task before him when 75 boys appeared to try out for the team. After a series of tryouts he selected a squad of fifteen boys who seemed to show the best ability, Since this was the first baseball team in the history of Southwest, the team had to be made largely of inexperienced material, A team had to he developed that could compete with the experienced teams of other schools. The schedule of league games follows: April 8, Central: April 15, Beau- mont: April 22, Soldan: April 29, Cleveland: May 13, McKinley: May 20, Blewett: May 27, Roosevelt. The following boys comprise the team: Ralph Anderson, outfield: Ray Danner, third base: Charles Feeney, pitch: Marvin Golish, catch: George Hall, pitch: Victor D'Harlingue, catch: Joe Messana, second base: Wally Reynolds, pitcher: Linton Roberts, first base: Frank Ruma, left field: Ben Therina, outfield: Roy Stock, pitch: Terry Tomlinson, center Held: Herbert Waeckerle, short stop: Rolla Williams, right field: Roy Bach and Ed Dietz, inielders. Terry Tomlinson and Herbert Waeckerle were chosen as co-captains. f Z f f 1 f:l' V U U U ' Lear . BASKETBALL rf! The basketball.team of the 1938-1939 season, although handicapped by the lack of experienced material, went through the schedule in fine style. Coach Gerber worked hard in getting the new team started. Despite the fact that the team finished the regular season in last place, the team played brilliantly at times and gave many of the other teams a tough battle. Everyone expected Southwest to end in last place because it was a new and inexperienced team. The closest game Southwestiplayed this season was with Blewett. The score was tied 16-16 as the gun went off to end the game. ln the overtime period Blewett scored the first field goal to win the game. The team suffered its worst defeat at the hands of Central. This 40-9 defeat did not dishearten the team for the Central team is the city champion. At the end of the season, Central was in first place, and Beaumont in second place. F orty-six Members of the squad who saw active service in the league games were: Victor D'l-larlingue, Jack Haisley, Jim Hencken, Bob Hoehle, Bill Lancaster, William Marlo, Kenneth Meyer, Jimmy Moore, Jim Moore, Linton Roberts, Jack Spenko, Lloyd Steinmeyer, Bill Treptow, Albert Westwood, and Jim Wortman. Results of league games were as follows: Beaumont 24, South- west 12g Blewett 18, Southwest l6g McKinley 40, Southwest l9: Central 40, Southwest 9: Cleveland 35, Southwest ll: Soldan 37, Southwest 12. UUE ' sf? TENNIS Southwest's l938 Tennis Team ended in a tie with Central and Blewett for sixth place. This year's squad was composed of Captain Jack Spinko, Sam Wool, Don Pepple, and as alternate Herbert Wackerle. The doubles team consisted of Irwin Holderner and Kay Koetter. Russel Rodden and Victor Trejbal were the alternates. The team started off with a bang, splitting with Central and defeating Blewett, 3 to l, but all the rest of the schools beat Southwest by a score of 4 to O. The league championship went to Beaumont High School. Forty-seven 1 4 .X Xl ia ' t The Southwest Swimming Squad for the season of 1938-1939 finished the season with two victories and six defeats. Considering that this was the first time the school has had a swimming team the showing was not bad at all. Coach Kent developed a team from inexperienced material. All of the boys on the team will be back next year and some for two or three years more. A much better record may be expected in the future. Four of the members of the team received their letters: Jack Seeler, Mack Stone, Weldon Huckins, and Melvin Karr. George Kovaka received his mana- gerial letter. Jack Seeler was elected captain of the team. 4 The following boys comprised the team: Dick Barnard, Jack Buhler, Bill Daily, Calvin Duke, Lawrence Fuqua, Bob Golden, Carter Hampton, Weldon I-luckins, Melvin Karr, George Kovaka CManagerj , Ebert Miller, Tommy Miller, Art Mueller, Frank Piskos, Jack Seeler CCaptainj, George Shearn, Mack Stone, Ernest Tremayne, Dan Wheatcroft. EI El U , GOLF Of all the athletic activities of Southwest, golf is one that requires the greatest amount of calm and deliberate muscular coordination. The game gives its enthusiasts a type of control over the body and mind that none of the faster moving sports gives. Southwest's golf team ended the 1938 fall season in fifth place. ln last year's spring season Southwest finished in third place. The tournaments take place over the Forest Park 18 hole course. Cleve- land won first place, Blewett second, and Soldan third in this last competition. The team, under the supervision of Coach Brew, made a fine showing for Southwest. The individual scores of the fall 1938 tournament, in order of ranking, are as' follows: Bill Benson, 177: Bill Boehmer, 179: Bob Baumgarten, 1803 George Kuehner, l83: Bob Fahle, 186: Jim Moore, l9l.

The first edition made its appearance on October 7 with successive copies published every two weeks. As yet no system of credit for this work has been devised, but pupils on y 1 the Pioneer staff Work on the paper during their study periods. ln addition a meeting is held every Thursday after school at which all members of the , staff discuss plans for the coming paper. The busiest day for the staff is the Tuesday before the paper is issued. On , that day galley sheets returned by the printer are proof-read for mistakes. Then the make-up artists compose a dummy copy of the coming issue of the Pioneer by pasting articles cut from these galley sheets on an earlier copy of the df Pioneer .

The book is the result of student effort, faculty guidance, and departmental cooperation. Necessarily limited in the number of pages by a small graduating class, the 'ARoundup represents an effort to replace quantity with quality. The theme, the Santa Fe Trail, was selected as symbolic of the opening of the Southwest to the American Pioneer, The staff feels that the opening of Southwest High School in St. Louis is of similar importance in the educa- tional Held. The students in the advanced art classes are responsible for all the art work evident in the year book. They went into the matter very thoroughly, doing actual research work in order to get authentic facts about the Santa Fe Trail and those who followed it. All the drawings are based upon this information secured through research. S5 VU!!!

The reason, of course, was that this was the first day of school after many memorable vacation days. It didn't take long for the smiles to fade, however, and by October 5th, we were indeed delighted to be taken on a tour of the United States by Mr. Lippy, Jr. He entertained us in the auditorium with his movie, i'The Highway Traveler , which was much better than thumbing our way across the country, An inspection of our school by a Committee of the State Department on October 24th resulted in its concluding that our school has a first class planti This news wasn't hard to take. Much debate over the name of our school was climaxed by a meeting of the Board of Education on November Sth. It announced the retention of Southwest , a name which, we hope, will establish an enviable tradition in high school history. Frank Vellios, on January 20th, received the Harvard Book Prize, awarded to the sixth term boy whose personal characteristics and scholastic record are outstanding. Goodwill Week was celebrated at Southwest on February Zlst. We had the pleasure of hearing very interesting talks by representatives of three different religious denominations-Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish. A showing of the First Century of Baseball on March 7th provided a special treat to all who had the privilege of seeing it. Could it have anything to do with all the new baseball rooters? We have been literally wooed with superb music in several different forms this last term. On March 14th, we had the pleasure of hearing the Culver- Stockton College A Cappella Choir. On March l5th, Miss Elda Vettori, formerly of the Metropolitan Grand Opera, held us spell-bound as she glided up and down the musical scale with her golden voice. Then, on March 22nd, the St. Louis Glee Club presented a fine program of popular music. Dr. Tillman also addressed us on the possibilities of furthering our education. March 23 found us again in the auditorium. This time we viewed moving pictures of the Olympic Games of 1936, which were held at Germany. Speak- ing of champions, it is appropriate to mention Edward Winkler, who, for his record in track, won the first athletic letter ever presented to a Southwest student. William Woods College Choir certainly knows how to pick songs that appeal. The two most popular were The Arkansas Traveler and When Shall I Be Married , which we heard on March 29th. . Cl El U SENIOR SELECTIONS Although the Class of l939 found it diflicult to make selections out of all the good dancers, intellectuals, and beauties in the class, they elected the follow- ing members as the most outstanding in these Helds: Most Intelligent Jean Fruend and Jimmie Sisk C45 Best Artist Hazel Young and Don Fahey C85 Best Disposition Marie Auen and Terry Tomlinson C75 Most Athletic Eleanor Rothenburg and Tony Carosello C65 Most Popular Dorothy Anderson and Don Pepple C15 Most Bashful Virginia Risch and Samuel Wool C55 Best Looking Violet Emmons and Jim Wortman C35 Best Dancers Alice Scherstuhl and John Ferlisi C25 Tallest and Shortest Glenn Delf and Frances Kelly C95 Seventy-eight Seuentgfnine THE SPRING FESTIVAL In May of last year a program entitled Spring Festival was presented in our auditorium by the dance group, glee clubs and orchestra, supervised by Miss Hachtman, Miss Press and Mr. Monachesi. Spring, as portrayed by music, dance, and song was pictured in four scenes: the first, an opening spring scene! the second, spring in England: third, Spanish sceneg and last, the American scene. In the opening scene the orchestra played the overture Blossom Time, melodious and lilting, then came a ballet dance, the Strauss Waltz A'Voice of Spring, accompanied by the piano, organ, and entire girls' glee club. . The gay, delightful second scene depicting spring in i'Merry England presented an archery contest and a tumbling act. Also included in this phase of the festival was the folk dance Sellinger's Round. Then came the vivid, picturesque Spanish scene. Gay, colorful senors and senoritas sang such songs as 'AAdelita, El Granchof' and the famous A'Cielito Lindo in the Spanish language. The Spanish atmosphere was further en- hanced by Delphine and Bob Wolfe's tango, danced to Espana Waltz. The settings for the scene were given by Miss Rothman. Last came the American scene, probably the most familiar to us. The following dances were given: School Spring Dance: Waltz of Kriesler by a quartet of girlsg and a tap dance by Jim Vvfollenby. The song Stars of Your Eyes was sung by a chorus of boys and girls in the final act. One of the highlights of the entire program was the School Field Day with the trumpeters and the other members of the band in their green and white capes, and the drum majors, three girls and one boy, in their gold and green costumes. EI III El BAND TAG DAY L. D. HART Southwest School of the Air, presented last December, was a melodious entertainment patterned after a commercial radio broadcast. It was written and directed by Mr. L. Monachesi, Southwest Band Director, especially for Band Tag Day. The scene was a class room and the cast, which featured talented Southwest amateurs, represented a class of girls and boys in rhythm, melody, and harmony. Each member of the class was called upon by the teacher, Mr. Monachesi, to display his talent in rhythm, melody, and harmony. The program was opened with a contest, a so-called battle of wits, among three members of the class. Lorraine Mathews, Barney Stienger, and George Meuller gave fine performances in portraying the three characters. The other performances equally as well done were: songs by George Meuller, June McCoy, Lillian Robbins, Bob Wolfe, LaVerne McElhiney, Geraldine Stutz, Frances Glover, Gloria Sicking, Annette Lindeman and Ray Marauthg dances by Jane Meyer, Corrine Kaufman, Ann Speros, Delphine Wolfe, Mary Xinos, Dorothy Vahrankamp, Don Sullivan, Jim Wolanberg, Esther Varclay, Muriel Keaton, Betty Mayer, and Elaine Crafep and miscellaneous numbers by Henry Kuna, Lloyd Bartlett and Tony Carosello. During the show Mr. Ernest Hares, supervisor of instrumental music, was discovered in the audience and was called to the stage. Mr. Hares entertained the audience with an amusing story. Our first Band Tag Day was only an experiment but everyone, faculty, students, and Parent-Teachers Association, co-operated so well in making it the huge success it was that Band Tag Day has been proclaimed an annual event at Southwest. I Eighty 52 I , Llfjf' ff 5 f A 1 Q Wg , if ' Q. i'v ,ff fi L C Eighty-one THE CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL Y. 1 The Students of Southwest High presented on December 23, 'l93'8 the Christmas Festival, Christmas Spirit in Many Lands. The program included activities of the Dance, Music, and Dramatic groups and the High School Orchestra. The commentations, read by John Cyrus and Victor Bruning, and the scenes were either secured or evolved from the foreign correspondence of the School's English classes. The essential unity of the various parts was explained in the commenta- tion, i'The Spirit of Christmas All Over the World, which opened the pro- gram. The commentations and scenes which followed presented a picture of Christmas and its many accompanying activities in America, Russia, England, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Rumania, Bulgaria, and Germany. ln each scene the songs and carols of the country represented were sung. The most outstand- ing presentations were The Skater's Waltz in the American scene, The Russian Trepak in the Russian scene, 'Brahms Hungarian Dance No. 5 in the Hungarian scene, and the last scene The Waltz of the Star. A poem, The Living Christmas Spirit, written by Betty Kauffman, a Southwest High School student, concluded the presentation. This program was presented under the direction of Miss Corrine Hachtman, Miss Leontone Meyer, and Mr. Libero Monachesi. III III III MISS HACHTMAN HONORED For Miss Hachtman's fine work in directing the Southwest group and supervising all the other dance sequences in pageant Musica Americana, pre- sented at the Municipal Auditorium last spring, Mr. Ernest Hares, supervisor of instrumental music, presented her, before the assembled school, with a line etching of Victor Herbert, early American composer. Miss Hachtman then gave the picture to our principal, Mr. Sackett, in order that he might present it to the school as a token of appreciation of the gratifying work of the Southwest dancers. Attached to this appropriate tribute was a card which reads as follows: Presented to Miss Corine Hachtman and her dancing club of Southwest High School in appreciation of their fine work at the Music Educators National Conference, March, l938, by Ernest Hates. The picture will be hung in our building. Margaret Schullz Eighty-two 4 M ,www aww, 57 l V fait... il aa -ZW? FACULTY English Lucy B. Funk Corine Hachtman Hazel A.
