Ettinger, whose never-failing supply of refreshing humor has brightened many days for them. His homely phil- osophy has given them a new outlook on life, even as his original manner of conducting his classes has indelibly impressed on their minds a knowl-r edge of his subject. By being himself he has endeared himself to them as few others have done. Mr. Ettinger was graduated from Central State Normal lStale Teachers' College! in 1904. In 1909 he graduated from the University of Michigan, where he was the only first year man ever elected to Acolytes, a philosoph- ical honor society. Mr. Ettinger has been a teacher of physics at South- western since the school opened in September, 1916. He is the head of the exact science department at Southwestern and Narrlstruln.

From older and wiser miners they had heard tales of gold, which. if searched for diligently, would reward them with amazing riches. So for four years ye Prospectors delved patiently among the mines of knowledge and bit by bit they unearthed precious nuggets of knowledge. Appar- ently they worked both wisely and wellg for upon weighing the golden bits of wisdom they were found to have made the average 1.96, a high mark, of which any group of Prospectors might be proud. Now they have packed away their implementsg and carrying their wisdom with them, they are off on the next step of the journey to trade their gold for cov- eted positions in the world of business. Perhaps they will have to bargain for a time before the world is convinced of their worthg perhaps bits of the gold will be found to be drossg but with the splendid goal they have obtained in four short years, we prophecy that the greater fortunes are yet to bc uncovered by our tried and true Prospcctors. A QUESTION OF VALUE Through with school! Through with books! Through with studying! Graduation is here: soon a precious diploma will show that four years of hard work have passed. One is tired,-weary, but edu- catcdC?l. A young student, his diploma tightly clutched in his hand, is on his way home from the graduation exer- cises. :X broad smile constantly Hits to and fro over his face. his eyes sparkle in the dim light, and his step is brisk and joyous. XVhy? The young man thinks he is educated. Does not his diploma show that? Still striding on, he arrives at a small river which is crossed by means of a bridge. Midway across, a sudden gust of wind tears the diploma from his hand and carries it into the river. It is lostg noth- ing is left to designate him as an educated young man. The scene changes-another young graduate is seen emerging from the school-house in the same predica- ment as the previous one. This student realizes the real value of an education. He has studied hard, has learned his lessons, and has learned the way to study. He knows that graduation from high school does not mean that he is educated. He realizes that it is only a start towards greater achievements. He has learned in high school that which many have not. that to keep up with this modern world, one must study until death not only knocks at the door, but really enters thc room. OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS Thomas A. Edison is seeking an American school boy to take his place and carry on his work. The boy will be selected by means of onc of Mr. Edison's famous qucstionnairesg he then will be awarded four years' tuition in any technical school of his choice. The governor of each state will be asked to fles- ignate one student who is thc best representative of American manhood and possesses the highest ability in scientific subjects during the past school year of 1928 through 1929. Each of the forty-nine winners will receive a free trip to the Edison laboratories, where they will be asked to answer the questionnaires which will be pre- pared by Mr. Edison. This is a wonderful chance for some fortunate school boy. The days of great opportunities are not over. This time opportunity is making a lot of noise knocking on the door so that every school-boy can hear it. A FITTING PROFESSION Now that school is about to close, graduates will soon be facing the world and seeking a profession. But have they thought seriously about the kind of business into which they would like to go-the kind that would appeal most to their imagination and taste, and to which they could adapt themselves readily? This self-analysis is one of the most important con- siderations confronting a person about to choose a profession. He must inquire where he will fit in so as to give the best service, develop the greatest power, and win the highest distinction. It is for himself to choose the profession in which he is interested-law, medi- cine, literature, finance, commerce, or industry. fContinued on page 155 Page Three PUBLISHERS UF MTHE PRUSPECTOR SENIOR EDITORIAL STAFF THE BUSINESS STAFF JUNIOR EDITORS AND REPORTERS Edna Kirsten fl Ruth Uhleman VALEDICTQRY THE PRESIDENTS ADDRESS By E DNA KIRSTEN OW' often have you heard someone say, Oh, what good is all that schooling to do him? NVhen he gets out into the business world he'll have to start at the bottom and go up, just like anyone else. I am sure we have all heard these words, many many times, a11d, sometimes, rather unconsciously, we have used them ourselves. NVe might have changed the wording a little and said, XVell, Fd like to know what good Latin is going to do me if l'm going to be a stenographer? The boss certainly won't dictate to me in Latin. Or, This English literature won't do me any good if 1'm going to be an engineer. Maybe we are right, and maybe we are not. Not long ago I read an article by Dr. Frank Crane, in which he said that any type of business person would be more apt to succeed if he knew his Latin, history, and Shakespeare, because Latin, history, and Shakespeare each help to give one that all-round- ness which is so necessary to success. He went on to say that all-roundnessf' which is no more than a good, solid background upon which to base the knowl- edge that you learn from experience, is more essen- tial to success than technical finish. Your employer may find that you haven't the nec- essary technical finish for the position you hold, but when he finds that you can talk intelligently, as I know all of you can, about many other subjects, he will keep you on the job, because he knows it won't take long for you to learn the mere routine of your work. VVe all know that none of us has technical finish. lVe couldn't possibly have it in the short time we have been hereg but in these four years we have received an education, which, as our motto says, is not just for school, but for life. s When We leave Southwestern tomorrow night, we shall all start together at the bottom of the ladder: but because of the time we have spent and the effort we have put forth here at Southwestern, we are not By RUTH VH LEM.-XN KUQNIJS: After four years of careful preparation Zlllfl earliest efforts, we greet this day with a feel- ing of satisfaction for our accomplishment, mingled with one of sadness at parting. I am sorry to think that in a few short days our pleasures and duties here at Southwestern will come to an all too sudden end. ln the few years we have spent here we have made many acquaintances, some of which have resulted in cherished friendships, friendships which have filled our many school days with joys and pleasures, and in which we have stood side by side through smiles and tears. I hope these friendships will never cease. Many things were accomplished by the splendid co- operation of each one of you. Since each of us has a duty to perform, we must now part. So let us go forth with high ideals and a spirit of determination. Play the game fair and square, because there is some- thing more than worldly goods in life. I want to take this opportunity to express our grat- itude to our parents. NVithout your unceasing care and help we might never have been able to expe- rience the thrill of this day-Commencement. Our graduation would not be complete without some recognition of our teachers, whose guidance and co-operation have aided in training us for this day. They have not only taught us our lessons, but they have shown us that we have a duty to perform to the world and to our country, as American citizens. W'e are leaving Southwestern, some may never re- turn, but I hope a welcome will always await those who do. It is with high hopes for the future that we, the class of june, 1929, say, Fare thee well to all our friends and the faculty.

This income was now cut off, and I was forced to return to the U. S. to find employ- ment in order to support myself. I passed through many European cities on my way, and at last I found myself in Hamburg, Germany, ready to embark on the steamer Rotterdam for America. lt was late one afternoon when I stopped at a typical outdoor cafe on the main boulevard, in the vicinity of the boat piers. When I received no atten- tion by rapping on the table gently, I resorted to hammering with an empty cup left by another cus- tomer. A waitress soon appeared. To my surprise INERS ABRUAD DINGER seated myself at a table by a window. I had 'no sooner seated myself, than a crowd of waitresses dashed madly towards me. Among them I recognized Laurene Golm, Gertrude Conrad, Winifred Bergstres- er, Ethel Link, and Dorothy Miller. After much qua1'- reling it was finally agreed that Dorothy Miller should wait on me. After bringing my order she told me that our schoolmate, Albert Springstein, was the cap- tain of the liner we were on, and that there were many more of our old friends on board. Thanking her, I went out on the deck again and to my great surprise I saw no sign of land. The next morning I was awakened rather early by Glenn Stefifes, who had attained the high rank of porter. Finding thatihe had shined my shoes and Pryjomski, and told me he I discovered that she was my old classmate, Irene Demchak. After she had brought my order of famed Lindquist cheese, we sat and chatted for a while. She informed me that she, Mary Gulyas, Ruth Burgess, and Anna Drumm left America for Germany in hopes of finding blonde men in great abundance. She also told me that Albert Topor and Maurice Lawyer, with their wives, Virginia Zelinske and Alice Pilson, were touring the Mediterranean countries in the giant zeppelin of the Gruitch and Farber Airways of Germany. Presently our conversa- tion was rather rudely inter- rupted by a huge, burly brute, whom I recognized as James Price.

He said he was the owner of the place, and he took Irene over to wait on another customer. Being thus left alone, I arose from the table and went on my way down toward the boat. As I passed a police station, a familiar cry, 'KI-Ioof! Hoof! greeted my ears. Upon turning around, whom should I see but the illustrious Four Horse- men, namely, Tom Wood, Sid VVise, John McCor- mick, and Frank Taylor, who comprised the mounted police force of Hamburg. Frank, the Lieutenant, ordered a horse for me and I was escorted to the boat. After bidding them a hearty goodby and thanking them, I boarded the liner. Sensing a need for nourishment, I wended my way into the cafeteria. At a table in the center of the room a large crowd was gathered. Closer inspec- tion revealed Julius Pavella, Julius Gaspar, Willard Shumate, and Everett Klusman participating in a pie- eating contest, under the supervision of the chef. William Carney and james Anderson, while Newton Baxter and Albert Stull were unloading pies from a cart. Not wishing to interrupt their experiment, I obtained his position because of the experience he received from driving his Chevrolet to and from high school. Leaving the captain's cabin, we went to the crew's quarters, where I was introduced to the first mate, Louis Svitkovichg second mate, Steve Vargo, chief navigator, Harold Okeg steward, Stanley Wright, and first assistant steward, VVilliam Zaglidi. VVe then went to the lower portions of the liner, where I met Severino Bogozzi, chief engineer, Harry Hobley, first assistant engineer, and Geza Pasternak, second assist- ant. Besides two of the huge Jones and Johnson steam turbines, I saw a group of oilers in greasy over- alls. Herb Ockenfels seemed to be the boss of the oilers, and was directing their work. From my point of view they appeared to be Harold Brown, Philip Hamel, Henry Krigner, Randal Gray, and Merrick Howe. As we moved further into the maze of machinery, we approached the massive boilers. Here I saw Er- nest Hartman, VValter Kusack, and Angus Morrison heaving huge shovelfulls of black diamonds into the roaring firebox. On a bench toward one side I saw Page Thirteen ON THE SHH-9 WlTH THE SENllOlRS AS THEY lRllDE llN T O T H E lF U T U R E john Binkiewicz, Floyd Page, and William Neff rest- ing for the next shift with the shovels. This concluded our visit to the engine room, and again we found ourselves out in the fresh air and sunshine. All of a sudden we heard a lot of chat- tering and squeaking aft on the starboard side. We immediately proceeded in that direction, expecting to see a iight among the sea gulls which had. been hovering over the deck all morning. Our hopes were somewhat diminished when we found merely Dolly Alexander, Elizabeth Parker, and Henrietta Dattner making a big fuss over Eleanor Diedrich's new dress. They declared it the greatest creation since the time Helen Kleiman tried to make one of her own back in high school. Not being particularly interested in dressmaking, we turned around and went towards the gymansium. Al led the way and we were soon there. In a ring set up in the center of the gymnasium was the inter- nationally famous heavyweight boxer, Louis Gulyas, crashingthunderous lefts and rights to the sturdychest of his sparring partner, Bradley Howe. The round was soon over and Louis' manager, Carmine Scafuri, commenced to rave about Louis' weaknesses and give him advice, while the seconds, Douglas Gordon and john Hagopian, gave him a rub down. Toots told us that his brother Steve was running a hand laundry' in Delray. Looking upon the track we saw Zolton Bakos, pole vaulter, Tony Sargenti, tennis ace, and joe Kastely, high hurdle Hash, all training vigorously to regain wind lost in securing their overwhelming victories in the recent Olympic games. Al then took me to the swimming pool, where we saw the Olympic swimming victors, john Mahin, Ed- gar Killian, and William Kamarosky, enjoying a dip. On the diving board was Herbert Marien, high diving artist, who had deprived America of another winner by turning professional. , Al then took me to the lounging room and library. At the end of the room in a large leather chair I saw Elsie Peterson, Queen of Wall Street, listening to her private secretary, Bessie Hopkins, give the stock re- ports as they flowed from a ticker on her desk. A few feet away Lucille Emerick, Dorothy Grune- wald, and Helen Emick were jumping up and down in great excitement. Investigating, I discovered that a game of chess between Fern and Olive Blair was the cause of the din. In a more prominent place in the room, a television apparatus was broadcasting the world events of the week. Being interested in cur- rent topics, I thought I would watch awhile. At this point Al had to leave me to carry out some of the duties of his position as captain. In the television I saw and heard james Nelson receive a large inscribed silver golf ball, significant of the mid-west golf cham- pionship. Clara Knitli, president of the Knitli and Keppen Golf Ball Company, presented the trophy. Clara referred to him as the second Bobby jones. His caddy, Charles Maniuk, was seen on the screen, but not mentioned. I saw Aluva Miller, Irene Nagy, and Dorothy Hoy being awarded crocheted dishcloths Page Fourteen HOHO0l O'G0PlOvC0C0N4'409'OWOwlv0'lvl'D0ONOvO06b9bONONO'4' The seniors can look back over their last term and tell things that they have accomplished with more assurance than their class prophet can describe the future. The boys have won the attendance cup. One of the boys, William Csircsu, was chosen a member of the All- State Orchestra. The girls have won the scholarship cup and have accom- plished the impossible by choosing their commencement dresses in one short week.

Next we saw that Amphion Shel- don, world renowned magician, was appearing before the Queen of England, with his co-partners, Edith Karnatz and Velma Srocka. This ended the current events, and the program was then turned over to Suzane Hovorka's syncopators, under the direction of Bert Roffina, who was to sing with the orchestra. Remembering Bert's voice in the old days at South- western, I decided to take a stroll in the peaceful soli- tude of the deck. just as I stepped out of the loung- ing room, whom should I meet but Ruth Uhleman, President of our Senior Class. She invited me to step in at a party she was giving in her palacial suite. On the way there, Ruth told me that Myrtle Par- ker, Margaret Reed, and Elveretta Simpkins had just received degrees from one of the greatest universities in Germany. She said the party was in their honor. I also learned that Ruth was international corre- spondence agent for the Woodford and Thompson Bankers of Detroit, and that, while in Switzerland settling accounts with the Schamp and Hittinger Cheese Company, she met our old-time friend, Louis Varga, Commodore in Chief of the entire Swiss navy. We now arrived at Ruth's stateroom. A dance was just starting. Dorothy Stoll was at the piano, and Lorene Linck was trying to play a harmonica, while Ida Benko was putting her saxophone together. Among the dancersgI noticed Walda Behnke, Mildred Handyside, Mable Scaife, and Dorothea Gailey, who seemed to be enjoying themselves immensely. Ruth and I were pushed aside by the maids, Stella Szatkow- ski and Esther Dittman, who were bringing in refresh- ments. They in turn were mobbed by Mildred Kuehn, Dorothy Weiss, Harriet Brown, and Menetta Hecht in a mad stampede for food. The excitement was too much for meg I just had to get out in the fresh air again. After bidding Ruth and her friends goodby, I stepped out onto the deck again. As I was standing at the rail, gazing at the horizon, I heard the roar of an airplane motor on the runway in the front of the ship. It was the regular Mid-Atlantic to New York mail plane about to depart. The pilot was I. B. Angell and his mechanic Irene Becsky, the only woman in the air mail service. The plane soared majestically upward and the drone of the motor soon died away as the plane was lost from sight. A week later we docked at Detroit, having passed through the St. Lawrence waterway route, recently constructed through the efforts of the master en- gineers and builders, Paul Matthews and Hubert Furr. After passing the inspection of the customs oliicers, Edward Bator and Earl Friese, I walked through the fContinued on page 375 lHlllSTORllC llNCllDlf2NTS By FRANK TAYLOR OW' vivid in our memories is that sunshiny Sep- tember morning, four short years ago, when a bunch of fiushed and feverish freshmen made their de- but in this great institution of knowledge. Although the rest of the student body acted cold toward us, Mr. Murdoclfs warm smile and welcome assured us that we would receive the best of treatment. Our great ideal after the first day in this institution was to pos- sess that same dignity which the seniors seemed to have. Our freshman year was a very successful one. Play- Our semester as 12-B's was climaxed by the Junior-Senior Prom, held in the Southwestern gym. This year the 12-B girls and 12-B boys led the honor roll for all markings. The most outstanding athletic event of the semester was the Junior-Senior basket- ball game for the championship of the school. The first game was won by the seniors, 16 to 15, and the second was wontby the juniors, with five points to spare. Our ideal was now realized, when we entered upon our senior year.

Our scholarship MARCH- western High School, a girl and attendance records were very high, and everything pointed to a successful soph- omore year. Upon our return in Sep- tember, we thought it fitting and proper to look with dis- dain upon the incoming freshmen. In this year we find the first athlete from our group trying out for a Prospector squad. This was Carmine Scafuri, who won a half-back's berth on the Southwestern team. Our hrst attempts this year to crash the upper classmen dances proved futileg evi- dently we hadn't reached the big shot stage yet.

Ruth Uhleman was the lucky lady, chosen to lead this mighty class of 1929. This was nothing unusual for her, though, for she had led her own group since the fresh- man year. Thomas Wood was elected vice-president of the class, Clara Knitli, secretary, and Raymond VVoodford, treasurer. At last came the time when those who had dra- matic aspirations got their chance to demonstrate their ability in the tryouts for the senior play. After the final selections, Miss Tucker's cast included Herbert Oek- enfels, Kenneth Lindquist, Ruth Uhleman, Dolly Alex- ander, James Nelson, and Alice Pilson. Miss Kruke's cast consisted of Dorothea Gailey, Mary Ridley, Wil- Scafuri, Willard Shumate, Frank Taylor, and Jack Thompson in baseball. The sophomore girls were also represented in athletics, for Esther Dittman and Ruth Uhleman placed in track. They were on one of the best girls' relay teams the school has ever had. That team won the city championship. Upon our return in the fall of 1928, all the junior boys were combined into one group under Mr. Dail and Miss Tucker. Our junior year 'was spent in glo- rifying ourselves in scholarship and athletics. The timid freshmen of 1925 had learned to dance with the best of them. Songs were composed for the two groups, by Esther Dittman. Willard Shumate was at the head of the entertainment committee for the year. liam Csircsu, and Frank Taylor. Four boys, john McCormick, Thomas Wood, Sidney NVise, and Frank Taylor, banded together in a club called the Four Horsemen. The boys claimed they organized this club to avoid walking. They wanted to gallop. Days of anxiety hung over the auditorium as the seniors were trying to decide where to have com- mencement. After much arguing and voting, it was finally decided to have commencement at City College. And now -we reach the goal for which we have striven for four years-graduation. May our future days be as happy as the days we have spent in this institution. A Fitting Profession fContinued from page 35 Given a good mind, good health, keen thinking, and a solid educational background, there is no limit to the success that persistence may obtain for one who knows absolutely what he can do and wants to do. Merely to have a desire for knowledge is not enough. The student must know what his capacity is for bringing that knowledge to full realization. This he cannot know until he has studied his likes and dislikes, his ability, and his interests. Once he has found-the type of work that he would like to do, the problem of the student is to master it.

CContinuecl on page 195 Page Seventeen Southwestern By JERRY M. GHUITCH How careless we came to your beautiful home, How thoughtlessly entered your life, So inconstant, and fond of the follies of youth, lVith triiiing and vanities rife. Though our thoughts were capricious, we were wel- comed by you, To your halls of perennial peace, The spell of tradition was over these walls, And your strength bade lickleness cease. Still careless, we've studied in your beautiful homeg The cycle has turned since we came. The years cannot alter your vigor and truth, But our hearts are no longer the same. And then, at the end, what your influence has wrought, ' W'hat power your teaching has given, In maturity, Southwestern, your aim is achieved, In our hearts your purpose is driven. Presentation of the Pick By EARL FRIESIC VVhen we stop to consider what we have accom- plished and what there is 'yet to achieve, we realize that we have only begun our task. This pick sym- bolizes the diligence by which we have reached this first stage of our career. Vile have regarded this pick as a prize much sought afterg and when possessed, it should be zealously guarded. It has been the custom of the preceding classes to leave some token of friendship to their successors to inspire them on to victory and graduation. Vile, the Seniors, pass this token of our friendship on to you, the Juniors, with more fame and victorious records added to its increasing glory. VVe hope you will take up this pick, our symbol, and carry it to greater heights than have ever been attained before, for the glory of our dear old Southwestern. NVe extend to you our heartiest wishes for success in the years to come. Acceptance of Pick lly HLA LAFGHLIN Representing the junior class, I accept for them this symbol of the conscientious efforts of the Seniors. I am ready, as an eye witness, to testify for them. that the Class of 1929 is deserving of much praise for the way in which they have upheld the honor and the standards of Southwestern. It is my earnest belief that every member of the Junior class will regard this pick as a means of dig- ging deep into the vast lield of knowledge. XVe will try to accomplish as much as you Seniors have. As you leave this court. where you have always found justice, ready helpers, and companionship, we extend our heartiest congratulations for your past successes and best wishes for your future ones. Page Eighteen Presentation of Spade By CLARA KNITLI VVe are about to leave you nowg but before we go, we want to leave with you this spade, which we value very highly, since it is the implement which we have used to dig our way to our linal goal-graduation. XVe have dug deep and have been successfulg but we hope that with the aid of this cherished spade the junior class will be able to dig deeper and End un- known riches which still remain untouched. The Senior class of June, 1929, hope that you will continue using this spade in'as worthy manner as we have, so that when you have Finished your 'high school career, you, too, will be able to pass it on to the next junior class umnarred and beyond criticism. Acceptance of the Spade By VVILLIABI VOELLINIIG For three and one-half years we have been digging earnestly and have uncovered many treasures. VVe finally reached the point, where with our present tools we were unable to proceed further. VVe were aware of the fact that, in this instance, the mostpre- cious metals lay at the greatest depths. The gloomy atmosphere in our section of the Prospector camp was instantly dispelled when word was received that we were to be given this excellent tool. Our class was suddenly transposed from one of sadness to one of great rejoicing for we realized that with this spade we might uncover the priceless treasures that re- mained. The quality of this implement cannot be questioned. For many years it has received the rough, harsh treat- ment that is typical in the use of such a tool, and still it has retained its edge. So as representative of the 12B class, I hereby for- mally accept this spade, promising that we will do our best to put it to the same good use it has been subject to when in the possession of yours and pre- vious classes. VA LEDICTORY tContinued from page 51 all going to work hard, so that we can bring fame to Southwestern. We will make our friends, parents, and teachers proud of us, because that is about the only way we can repay them for the many sacrifices they made for us. And because we are so ambitious and industrious, I know it won't be long before we hear of a great deed or good work which some one of you has done. They will be able to point to you with pride and say, I-Ie is from that wonderful class of June, 1929 -a class which I know none of us will ever be able to forget. As I say farewell to our faculty and teachers, I know I express the feelings of every classmate when I say that each one of us is going to strive to bring more honor and fame than has ever before been brought to the name of Southwestern High School.

Mr. Bangs holds a prejudice against the unmarried fair sex because he thinks that they are forever scheming to catch an unwary man in the toils and marry him. But Mr. Bangs is in love with Lucille. although he dislikes to admit the fact. Jane brings the two together once more after they have met, and introduces Lucille.

The New Chemistry Club Page Twenty-three SENTO llrllll:Y HAS ACTHWE SEMESTER t i I 1 The Senior Hi-Y - The boys of the Southwestern Senior Hi-Y have seen their aim, which was to be one of the most serviceable clubs in the school, fulfilled. Today the Hi-Y is one of the most outstanding organizations in Southwestern. After the election and installation of the officers things began to buzz for the club. The first event the Hi-Y undertook was the Father-Son banquet. XVith the assistance of the Y. M. C. and the Midget Club, this affair was carried out successfully. At the regular business meetings, the club made elaborate plans that included a definite program for the entire term. Right along, their popularity and service to the school were steadily growing. Then came the VVestern Older Boys' and Girls' Conference, which the Hi-Y and Girl Reserves efiiciently spon- sored. Boys of the Southwestern 1-li-Y attended to registrations and official business connected with this event. ill, ln addition to the Older lioys' and Girls' Confer- ence and the Father and Son banquet, the Hi-Y undertook other projects. They had basketball score cards printed, and they distributed the score cards at the Western game. The managing of a second-hand book store is a service the Hi-Y expects to render the students of Southwestern next semester. The boys will accept students' used textbooks and sell them at a fair price for a small commission. As a special service to seniors, the Senior Hi-Y is buying a volume of books called Vocational Guides, which will assist seniors in choosing their vocations. The boys expect to install a newer and better basketball score board in the gym. A real, live club, the Hi-Y boys have enjoyed social events and weekly entertaimnent regularly. One of the social events was a wiener roast held with the Domecon Club. Everyone turned out for this eventg and what fun was missed was not worth having. The final and biggest social event of the season was a party held for the Girl Reserves. This event topped one of the Senior Hi-Y's most active semesters. i The officers are Harold Oke, Presidentg Randal Gray, Vice-Presidentg john Mahin, Secretaryg and W'illiam Voellmig, Treasurer. Torch Hi-Y Furnish School Handbook Several of the Torch Hi-Y meetings in 1929 were held at the lVestern HY , among these were the In- duction service, initiation, swims, and social gather- ings.

Mr. Musson is adviser of the Gold boys. About the middle of the semester, the Hi-Y put out a book containing the names and descriptions of all the clubs, their standards, and requirements: besides this information the book contains the school yells and the school song. A copy of this hook was presented to the Student Council by a representative of the Torch Hi-Y. Next September a copy of this book will be presented to each incoming 9B, so that these students may select their activities intelligently. A Glorious Flourish 1 The Prospector Basketball Squad for 1929 Hli 1928-29basketball season was a fair success. ln the pre-season games things looked rather dark, for the Southwestern team lost to the alumni, 46 to 19, and to Fordson High, 38 to 29. But the team was more or less in the throes of construction, and different combinations were being tried out in an effort to weld a good team. Southwestern's first victim in league play was Cen- tral, by a score of 28 to 15. Southwestern revealed a smooth working quintet, with Bator and Scafuri setting the example. Thompson established himself as one of the best centers in the city, and Shumate and 11 ood were not far behind. In a non-league game, Northern, destined to become the city champions, forced Southwestern to take the short end of the count, 32 to 19. Northern's short passing game and bewildering tloor work were too much for the Prospectors, and they were forced to bow. On lfebruary 1, the 1'rospectors engaged Highland Park to decide who was to stay in first place on the West Side. Weakening in the last quarter, South- western was forced to take the count, 22 to 19, after leading at the end of the third quarter, 17 to 13. lnsertion of fresh players did not stem the tide. ln defeat, the .Prospectors developed grit and deter- mination, which were fast making them a badly feared team. The next team which tried to stop the lllue and Gold was Northwestern. city and state champion of the previous season, on Friday, February 8. North- western was forced to submit, 19 to 18, after making a gallant bid to win. lfator and Scafuri played sen- sational basketball, and 1Vood's guarding was phe- nomenal. 1-lachodorian was a thorn for the Pros- pectors all the way. The lilne and Gold team reached its apex of power and form in the Redford game, February 15, when Redford lost, 26 to 22. Southwestern was going along like a well-oiled machine, piling up point after point, and checking the Huskies whenever they threatened. For the first time the team had really found itself, and the Southwestern rooters were de- lirious with joy. Southwestern journeyed to 1Vestern, its traditional rival, for its next game on February 22, and South- western was routed, 25 to 6. Southwestern's attack, minus its main cog. failed to function, and its defense was caught Hat-footed time and againg they were forced to suffer the worst defeat a Prospector team has ever suffered. The team met Cass Tech on the home court on March 1, and though Southwestern, tigthing hard, managed to tie the score in the last quarter, they were defeated, 22 to 21. This defeat put six teams in tie for second place,--Southwestern, Northwestern, Western, Redford, Cass, and Central, and necessitated a play-off for the position to determine the team to play the runner-up on the east side. Southwestern drew Northwestern in the play-off, a11d was forced to accept defeat. 21 to 16. The game was played at Central High on M arch 6. Hut though bowing in defeat, the Prospectors scored eleven points in the last quarter. a remarkable feat. That closed the Southwestern basketball season with a glorious fiourish and with head held proudly high, instead of low in dejection. Southwestern scored a total of 325 points to their opponents' 342. They won six games and lost eight. ln league play they broke even, with three victories and three defeats. 1 The second team had a successful season with eleven victories and two defeatsg and some promising material was uncovered. Page Twenty-five Girls Display Natatorial Skill Girls' Swimming Team The Prospector girls' swimming team deserves praise, for they won three of four scheduled meets during this last season: they lost only to North- western, contestant for first place. The team had no senior swimmers' 'this season. The two girls who won places in the city meet last year were not on the team. Harriet Hull, who placed in the 50-yard back-stroke, had graduated, and Kath- erine Nason, who had secured second and third places Hockey Team 1 Southwestern's second hockey season has come and gone. The hockey team had a fairly good season for a school which had entered a team for the second time in its history. The team was under the able direction of Coaches NYietersen and Strohmer. The team played ties with llamtramck and Highland l'ark, and beat Northeastern. Two boys acted as captains during the season. Randall Gray was bench captain, and Homer Riepen, playing captain. Eleven boys received letters. All the games were played at the Olympia, the home of the Cougars and the Olympics, who are lJetroit's hockey representa- tives in the major leagues. The scores: Southwestern, llamtramck, O. fi in the 25-yard and 50-yard crawl, had transferred to Cass. , There were a number of veterans on the team this term, they were Bourbonais, Hopkins, Gardiner, Henig, liargi, and Betty Giauque. At the first meet, January 21, at Northwestern. the Prospectors were defeated with a score of 103 to 23. Redford was the next opponent. The meet was held in the Huskies' pool, on February 15. At the end of a hard battle in which the teams were very evenly matched, the Southwestern mermaids were given the decision by one point. The total score was 26 to 27. On February 20, the lassies went to XYestern, where they were again victorious. The Scotten Avenue girls were downed, 39 to 32. A return meet was engaged on April 9, with 1Yest- ern at Southwestern. XYestern was unsuccessful in this attempt to vanquish the Prospector mermaids. The Blue and Gold won, -18 to 23.

Natators Lose Three Veterans Page T wemy-six Hoy Natntors The Southwestern lligh School natators had a very poor season in 1929, when victories are set down against defeats: but from the standpoint of organi- zation, the team ranged with the best in the city. For the first time in many years, the schedule was followed to the letter and the whole team stuck together to the end. This was due to the splendid coaching of .-'Xrehie llogan and to the lighting spirit of Captain bl. ll. Angell. The Prospector splashers will have a veteran squad for next year, and much is expected of them. Those graduating are Captain .-Xngell, l'aul llinger, Anthony Sargenti. and Louis QContinued on page 291 Track Team Bows to Old Rivals The Southwestern outdoor track team participated in three meets during this season, besides taking part in the city meet, with which the track schedule came to a close. ln a triangular meet with Central and llamtramck, the Prospectors were forced to take third place. ln their second triangular meet of the season, with Highland Park and U. of D. lligh, the Southwestern boys placed second. lYestern and Southwestern engaged in an exciting' track meet, from which the Cowboys emerged the victor by the score of 73 to 40.
