FGREWGRD To Mr. Beldon La Bansky, whose excellent work has produced for the Sparta High School a band and or- chestra which compare favorably with all similar organizations in the state, this Spartan is respectfully dedicated. His good-will has made him a favorite among the studentsg his ability and perseverence have given the school a musical organization of which all may be proud. DEDICATIG My mind lets go a thousand things, Like dates of wars and deaths of kings, And yet recalls the very hour- 'Twas noon by yonder village tower, And on the last blue noon in May- The wind came briskly up this way, Crisping the brook beside the road 5 Then, pausing here, set down its load Of pine-scents, and shook listlessly Two petals from that wild-rose tree. ' -Thomas Bailey Aldrich To be alive in such an age! With every year a lightning page Turned in the world's great wonder book Whereon the leaning nations look. When men speak strong for brotherhood, For peace and universal good, When miracles are everywhere, And every inch of common air Throbs a tremendous prophecy Of greater marvels yet to be. 0, thrilling age, O, willing age! When steel and stone and rail and rod Become the avenue of God- A trump to shout His thunder through To crown the work that man may do. -Angela Morgan '0h! the old swimmin' hole! ln the long, lazy days When the hum-drum of school made so many run-a-ways, How pleasant was the journey down the old dusty lane, Where the tracks of our bare feet was all printed so plane You could tell by the dent of the heel and the sole They was lots o' fun on hands at theold swimmin' hole. But the last joys is past! Let your tears in sorrow roll Like the rain that ust to dapple up the old swimmin' hole. -John Whitcomh Riley 77 CONTENTS Dedication 5 School - 19 School Life 37 Athletic - 67 Features - - 85 To the Students, Teachers. Alumni, and Citizens of Sparta: My fourteen years of service to the Sparta schools end at the close of this school year. Through the co-operation of all, a great many changes have been brought about in the Sparta schools: new building, new courses, new programs, new departments, and many new activities. I am glad to have had a part in these changes and improvements. The last big high school bond of 328.000 has just been paid, so the schools will now no longer be burdened with a large bond payment. This should help a great deal. l,087'students have graduated under my administration. This is more than half of all the graduates since the organization of the high school sixty years ago. My heart has been in your schools, and I have given the best years of my life in their service. A I hope that the students and teachers will continue to stand for the finest and best in this community, and that they will perpetuate the ideals and idealism I have tried to have the Sparta schools stand for. I have tried to give you an honest and husinesslike administration, and I have done my best. I wish to thank those who have helped make your schools what they are today and I appreciate the many Hue friend- ships and associations. I hope that a united board and citizenship will up- hold the teachers and the new superintendent in their dilficult tasks so that your schools will continue to go on from strength unto strength and from victory unto victory.

Fourteen years have elapsed since he came here to assume the super- intendency, and real changes have been instituted during his administration. F our- teen years ago the Sparta High School was housed in a sma.ll brick and wooden buildingg today, we have a modern, well-equipped building, surrounded by a campus that is a beauty spot, especially when all the foliage and shrubbery are in full' bloom. This modern building is noted for its large gymnasium, there being only a few others of its size in the state of Wisconsiii. Because of this large gymnasium, it has been possible to hold the district basketball tournament in Sparta for the last several years. Another noteworthy feature of the building is the large library. Because of its size, sixty students or more are working in it every period in the day, and the use of the library has become an integral part of the school work. There are other noteworthy features of the building: small study halls, extensive science and laboratory-rooms, and especially-fitted rooms for other depart- ments and courses. - Many of the fine features of this magnificent building can be attributed only to the vision and fo-resight of Mr. Gunderson, who had the experience of helping to plan the building of two other high school buildings before coming to Sparta, and who has said, My heart has been in the Sparta schools? During his administration the high school has grown from some three hundred students to five hundred fifty-eight in the upper four years. But the high school itself is now organized into a junior and senior high school with a total enrollment in both of six hundred and eighty-eight. Mr. Gunderson has been a booster for things worth while in education. It has been under his administration that a kindergarten course has been introducedg that both boys and girls physical education courses have been establishedg that a full time librarian has been ernployedg and that an agricultural course has been introducted. All of these courses are now a regular part of the school curriculum. Page Twelve .Q ds A -1935 But Mr. Gunderson has promoted education in the extra curricular field also. Particularly noteworthy along this line is the development of the band, orchestra, and the different glee clubs and choirs. . Outside of school Mr. Gunderson has been active in things educational. He has been president of the Monroe County Teachers' Association, president of the VVestern WVisconsin School Masters' Club, president of the South Central Con- ference, president of the VVestern VVisconsin Teachers' Association, and a member of the executive committee of that organization. As a public spirited citizen he has been active and has held many offices of trust and responsibility. He is a member of the Kiwanis Club and has served as its presidentg he is a member of the Chamber of Commerceg he is a member of the Community Commissiong is a member of the Sparta Literary Clubg and is a member of the choir of the Congregational Church of this city. Mr. Gunderson is a man of high ideals and strong convictions and has tried to impart these to others. He has held the training of character as the highest type of education. He has tried to motivate the students of the high school into stand- ingfor high idealism, excellent scholarship, friendly cooperation. and the develop- ment of a fine spirit and attitude toward work and conduct. He always closed his last remarks to each graduating class before they stepped on to the rostrum to receive their diplomas with these lines of verse from the pen of Van Dyke. Four things a man must learn to do If he would make his record true: To think without confusion clearlyg To love his fellow-men sincerelyg To act from honest motives purelyg To trust in God and Heaven securelyf' Mr. Gunderson leaves a fine school and an excellent record. He severs his connection with the Sparta schools, but the best wishes of the Sparta High School go with him.

'Q Page Thirty-two T H E S P A R T N Senior Class History On August 31, 1931, we, 143 green freshies, entered Sparta High School and at once proceeded to make a name for ourselves. john Butler, whom we elected president, proved to be an able leader. At first we had some trouble getting the idea that high school was a place for work, but once we got started, we never stopped. This is shown clearly by the fact that forty-four members of our class have an average of eighty-eight or over for the four years. Fifteen boys went through the ordeal of Jefferson initiation. About thirty girls entered G.A.A., and over forty joined Athena. Those with musical ability joined the band, orchestra, and glee clubs in goodly numbers. ' Several boys were on the football squad, two of whom played as substitutes in regular games. Freshmen basketball team booked several out-of-town games. The girls' volleyball team lost only one game during the. season, showing that the boys weren't the only athletes in the class. lrVith spring came track and evidence that there, too, was great agility among the freshmen. Five freshmen entered the declamatory contest, two winning places in the preliminary contest. Our freshman year was much saddened by the death of our classmate, Omar Kurtzman, Even those who did not know him intimately, realized we had lost a classmate who would have become one of our leaders. As sophomores, we continued to make our class an outstanding one. Although there was a group of excellent sophomore athletes on the football squad, Skipper Fleming alone received a letter. Seven of our classmates were on the basketball squad and K. Doane was manager of the entire squad. Several tried out for extemporaneous speaking and reading, one for debate, and many for declamatory. June Peterson represented us very capably at the State Band tournament by win- ning fourth place in Class A violin competition. In the spring, three sophomore trackmen received letters. Q At the first class meeting of our junior year, Bob Milburn was elected presi- dent. XV ith ability as a leader he guided us through a most successful year. Many of the junior boys proved themselves indispensable members of the football squad. In basketball, too, our class did its part in contributing stars. The juniors were outstanding in forensics, three of them representing the school in the triangular and conference meets. Two juniors were alternates for the debate team. VV ith the spring time came prom time. Due to the excellent cooperation among our class- men, we were able to make prom a great success, the music, punch, and decorations being excellent. , ' june first we bade the seniors farewell and left school, wondering just how it would feel to fill their places in the fall. . ' VV e began our senior year by being well-represented in all organizations and, in most of them, holding offices of responsibility. jacob Vander lVoud was chosen president of the class. , ' The 1934-35 athletic season has been the most successful Sparta has had for some time. Although victories were few in football, we had many seniors on the team. Five senior boys played regulars on an exceptionally fast teamj W'e re- ceived third place in the District tournament. Much of the success was due to the leadership of Coach Samuelson. D. GBE, '35. Page Thirty- three THE SPARTAN Junior Class VVhen we entered school three years ago, our class had an enrollment of one hundred and seventy-six, the record enrollment of any class that Sparta High School has ever had. Although the junior class is now somewhat smaller, it is not less successful. Our class has been well-represented in every activity in and around school. Several other boys were out in uniform besides Doc Salisbury, Gordon Frederick, Mahlon Schultz, Bud Strouts, Durwood Leverenz, Russell De VVitt, Donald VV il- liams. Paul Phillips, and Arthur Stannard, who were all on the regular football team last fall. On the first basketball squad there were Doc Salisbury, Mahlon Schultz, Douglas Burnett, and Gordon Frederick. Several representatives were on the second squad and on the track team last spring. The girls are also taking part in athletic sports. Jessie Lathrop, Marion Brom, Gwen Jones, Dorothy Owens, and Geraldine Storandt are among the leaders in the girls' athletic clubs. The band, orchestra, and other school organizations have many of their mem- bers from our class. The girls' glee club and a capella choir are made up of many juniors, and Paul Phillips, Bud Strouts, and Stanley Jones sing in the high school quartet. We are represented on the debate team by Paul Phillips, and several other juniors are taking part in forsenic events. The junior class is a leader among the classes and we are hoping to have the largest and most successful graduating class in the history of the Sparta High School. P. THURSTON, '36. Sophomore Class O11 September 4, 1934, the once green freshiesu came back to school to be known as the sophisticated sophomores . At that time the enrollment was one hundred and thirty four pupils. XV e elected these pupils for our officers: Presi- dent, Carl Hebbeg Vice President, Edward jonesg Secretary, Dennis Shea, Treas- urer, Lorra.ine Andersong Spartan Staff Representative, Norma Jewell. VVe sophomores are well represented in school activities, both athletic and literary. Several of the boys were on the various football teams, and we had one football hero, Carl Hebbe. Spencer Ulson, Lyle Bernett, Norman Gamble, Doug- las Christensen, and Carl Hebbe are Lettermen. Many of the girls belong to G.A.A. Kathryn Frederick was on the first debate team. June Myers, Kathryn Frederick, Doris Jane Jones, Betty Schotten, Helen Ninneman, and Helen VVake- man participated in the extemporaneous reading contest. VVe were well repre- sented in thisg all places were taken by sophomores. Those taking part in extent- poraneous speaking are Doris ,lane Jones, Spencer Olson, and Lyle Fletcher. The girls working on declamations are Mary Kline and Norma Jewell. Many of the students play in the band and orchestra. VV e are very proud of our girls glee club. VV e sophomores hope that we shall be able to keep up our good record during our remaining high school years. N. JEWELL, '37, Page Thirty-four THE SPARTAN Freshman Class On enrollment day last September about one hundred fifty-five green horns registered to become students in the Sparta High School. After being initiated and having sufficient time for the green to wear off, the class of '38 began the year's work. . The freshman class was well-represented in athletics, many boys going out for football and playing on the freshman basketball squad. The freshman boys beat the Tomah freshman in basketball there. In the band and orchestra we were also well-represented. The following were in the first band: L. Brendum, J. King, T. jefferson, I. Nicol, V. Harris, L. Geier, E. Speltz, M. Sayner, M. Schoonmaker, and M. Kruger. In the second band were M. Kroener, V. Anderson, J. Heyer, L. Peterson, H. Brom, N. Rigg, and V. Sacia. There are two of us in the orchestra: R. Gee and L. Kruger. Jefferson was enlarged by the enrollment of the freshman boys, while the freshman girls outnumbered the sophomores in Athena. The following officers were elected for the year: President, john Floodg Vice President, Doris jacobsg Secretary, jane Heyerg Treasurer, Jane King, and Spartan Representative, Lloyd Kruger. ' L. KRUGER, '38. Eighth Grade There are sixty boys and girls in the eighth grade. VVe have two English clubs which meet every week. They are under the direction of Miss Witz. Cne section of the grade calls theirs, The Highway to Good English, while the other section selected the name The Tip Top Lecture Club. VVe do this to learn to speak in front of a large crowd and to learn better English. W'e also have a geography club under the supervision of Miss Morgan, in which there is a study and discussion of curent topics. lNe had a seventh and eighth grade party at Christmas time. Everyone had a very 'good time. Some of the boys in the class give promise of becoming members of winning athletic teams. D g Six of our boys and girls are members of the band. Three of the girls are in Miss Levenstein's tap dancing team and one is on the tumbling team. Altogether, we think that we are prepared for an interesting four years in high school. P. RICE, '39, Seventh Grade The enrollment o-f the seventh grade is about seventy pupils. The grade is divided into two sections, Mr. Kane being the adviser of one group and Miss Dwyer of the other. There is an English and history club in each section. The class elects officers who take charge of the meetings and so we are given guidance in leadership as well as oral English. The boys basketball team, coached by Mr. Kane, has been very succesful. The seventh grade is well represented in both the concert and second band. Several girls are o-n the tumbling team and in tap dancing classes. W'e are doing our best for Sparta High and hope to bring still more honor to our school in future years. D FREDERICK, '4O.

Page Forty-six THE SPARTAN Boys' and Girls' Glee Club Although the freshman girls' glee club meets only once a week, it has been making rapid progress this year, especially since Christmas. The girls worked under diificulties in the beginning of the year due to their inability, to read music. There are thirty girls 'in this glee club. Its chief work is three-part songs. Some of the songs it has been singing are The Rosary by Nevin, Nursery Rhyms by Curren, and The Morning Has XVings by VViley. The sophomore girls' glee club is a Hne organization consisting of eighteen girls. There are eight sopranoes, Eve second sopranoes, and live altoes. The glee club sang An English Garden and Come Ye Here Laddie for the public, show- ing the rapid progress the glee club has made this year. ' The senior girls' glee club is made up of thirty-six junior and senior girls interested in vocal work. At Christmas time the girls sang carols in the halls, which added to the spirit of the occasion. A Music Festival will be held at La Crosse some time in April in which the girls will take part. Due to the large number, girls will be picked to attend. The songs to be sung are On .the Steppe by Gretchaninolf, Lift Thine Eyes by Mendelso-hn, and To Spring by Greig. The girls will also appear on the program given for the public Tuesday, March 26. This will conclude the work for the glee club this year. Y The freshman boys' glee club has made much progress. They are all very musical and are beginning to show results from the sight singing which they have been doing all year. They are singing Aunt Jemima and Kentucky Babe , which are four part songs. The senior boys' glee club has done excellent work this year. There are about a dozen boys in it. They are going to sing at the Musical Festival at La Crosse. They will sing Shadow March and Aunt Jemima . M. ATCOLIBER, '35. A Capella Choir The A Capella Choir was formed in the spring of 1934, under the capable direction of Miss Bartz. Since that time the choir has been working very hard, and, as a result, has been asked several times to sing in public. Some of the songs the choir has sung are: King jesus Is A Listening, Go Not Far From Me, Oh God, Czechoslovakian Folk Song, All In The April Evening. Annie Laurie, Hosanna, Go Down. Moses, and Song of the Pedlarf' The choir plans to go to the La Crcsse Music Festival in April. It is also con- sidering participating in the District Tournament to be held in April. Although the choir has been in existence for only a year, it has made very rapid progress, but it is hoping to improve even more next year. ' -R. HEYER, '35. Orchestra ' There are about thirty members in the orchestra this year. Every member must attend a weekly rehearsal and an orchestra class. Under the directio-n of Mr. La Bansky, the orchestra has shown much improvement. The orchestra has ap- peared in public several times, besides joining the band in several concerts. Some members of the orchestra usually attend the Music Festival given at La Crosseg they also represent us at the district tournament. The B.O.P.A. has supported this organization and deserves considerable credit for its success. J. AUsT1N, '35. Page Forty - seven THE SPARTAN FirstBand XV e have had a very fine senior band his year, perhaps the best developed band our school has ever had. The instrumentation is better than in previous years and the entire balance of the band is much improved over bands of the past. The entire group of seventy members is called the concert band and the many programs and contests for which the band plays during the year keeps its members working all of the time. Each section of the band is given class instruction one period each week to help perfect some of the details for which time cannot be taken at regular rehearsal. The band as a group meets twice each week to practice program and contest numbers. Twenty-live members were picked from the concert hand to make up a pep band which has played for all of the athletic events and provides real school spirit for the boys on the field and in the gym. The record made by many of our band graduates proves that our music pro- gram is one of the finest activities provided for in our school curriculum. Second Band Our second band has developed in size and quality this year and is constantly supplying material for vacancies in the Hrst band. This group does not appear on programs, but practices regularly throughout the year learning the fundamentals which are necessary to make each player eligible fo-r promotion to the first band. All beginners from the lower grades through the high school must participate in this group before they are taken into the senior group or first band. The junio-r band has its place in the music program and it is recognized as an essential and worthwhile part in the building of a more finished band. Junior Athena Junior Athena was organized with this purpose in mind-to improve its mem- bers' literary interests and ability in public speaking. Membership is open to all freshmen and sophomore girls who have passed in all their subjects the previous semester. Dfficers are elected each semester. Student Committees are appointed for each program by the officers. The students with the help of a faculty adviser prepare the grogram. The program for this year, which was planned by the faculty advisors with the approval of the officers, was an international one. Programs were on the costumes, dances, music, literature, and geography of foreign lands. The enrollment for this year was eighty-tive members. The faculty advisers are Miss Kniebusch, Miss Foster, Miss Hanson, Miss Helmke, Miss Babcock, and Miss Levenstein. Page Forty-eight THE SPARTAN Senior Athena Senior Athena is primarily a literary society the purpose of which is to pro- mote interest in dramatics, forensic contests, and music. Any senior or junior girl may join the society if she has passed in all of her subjects the previous semester. The total membership was larger this year than ever before and an eifort was made to have each girl appear in a program. Student committees were appointed for each program with a faculty adviser to help them. In order to stimulate in- terest in dramatics, a number of one-act plays were given which were very en- tertaining and provided valuable training to those interested in acting. A very clever musical play and a program on the different ways of entertaining provided variety in the schedule of meetings. The Jefferson-Athena banquet brings to close the activities of this society for the year. Faculty advisers are Miss Bartz, Miss Baertschy, Miss Hutt, Miss Peter- son, Miss Wagner, and Miss Wolfinger.

A girl Reserve pledges herself to find and give the best when she becomes a member. All new members gave this pledge at the Recognition Service, Candles That Burn, this year. A cabinet composed of officers and chairman of general committees makes general plans for the year. The meetings are held every VVednesday, the first meeting of each month being a cabinet meeting, and the last a social event. This year the Girl Reserves sponsored a Christmas party for some of the pre-school children in Sparta. In May the club will give a Mother-Daughter banquet at which the mothers of the members will be entertained. Every girl does her best to obey the slogan to face life squarely. J. AUSTIN, '35. Sparta Chapter of Future Farmers The Future Farmers of America is a national organization. Its members include the farm boys of the United States and its outlying possessions. The Sparta chapter is a very successful one. It has a large membership and is successful in its activities. The activities of the club are numerous. Regular meetings are held every three weeks. At this time programs are always presented. The club sends judg- ing teams to the state contest, sponsors a Father and Son's banquet and a basket- ball team, and plans to entertain the rural eighth grade graduates. A picnic and summer tour is also carried on and representatives are sent to the State Fair each year. It is a very worthwhile organization in that it teaches farm boys to wo-rk and play together, a valuable factor in later activities as farmers. P. THURSTON, '36. Page Forty-nine THE SPARTAN F Debate About December 10, a call was issued for debate candidates. A week later trials were held for which eighteen students reported. From this group, which was considerably larger than that trying out the preceding two years, six regular debaters and two alternates were picked to represent Sparta High School. Those chosen as regular debaters were Mary Hensgen, Emma Louise Beckman, Faye Huntzicker, Kathryn Frederick, Arthur Edwards, and Paul Phillips, and for alternates Wilmar Daehn and Viola Steele. After several weeks of study, prac- tice debating, and rebuttal work, the team went to the La Crosse Teachers' Col- lege on February 9, where they received second place in a series of dual debates with Tomah and Viroqua. The following Saturday the teams went to Portage to participate in a conference debate at which six schools were represented. Sparta got last in this series, but they returned home satisfied that they had put up a good fight and glad that they had participated in the debate. The topic for debate this year was: Resolved, That the Federal Government should adopt a policy of equalizqing educational opportunities throughout the na- tion by means of making the necessary annual grants to the individual states for public, elementary, a.nd secondary education. P. PHILLIPS, '36. Hi-Y The Hi-Y club, under the direction of Messers. Simonson and McLean, car- ried out a number of projects during the year. It provided uniforms for the cheerleaders, sent a delegation to Viroqua to the Annual Older Boys' Conference, and took care of the ushering at the Basketball Tournament. Marvin Jones was president and Bob Milburn was secretary. The purpose of the organization is to set a standard of conduct and sportsman- ship for the high school. A. EDNVARDS, '35. School News Staff The School News Staff consisting of eight reporters supplied the local papers with news of school activities. There are three reporters from the senior class. two juniors, two sophomores, one freshman and one from the seventh grade. There are more reporters from the upper two classes because upper classmen are usually active in more of the organizations and should be able to write better reports than the lower classmen. Each reporter has a definite assignment so that all school organizations are covered. From a reporters standpoint, the participants receive a great deal of practical experience in journalism. Anyone who wishes may try out for a place on the news staff. A. EDNVARDS, '35. Jefferson The Jefferson Deba.ting Society meets twice a month in the Sophomore study hall. The purpose of this club is to give the boys' experience in talking before a group. NVe have an excellent attendance this year, the size of the organization being almost twice that of previous years. At each meeting we have a program first, followed by parliamentary practice. The program is put on by the membersof the club, all of whom have had about one week's preparation. No member of the club appears more than once on the pro- gram in a year. All members take part in parliamentary practice, in which we dis- cuss some subject of interest to- the entire group. Sometimes these are humorous and sometimes very serious. A. EDWARDS, '35. Page Fifty T I-I E S P A R T A N Spartan - Staff The Spartan Staff has worked very hard this year to put out an annual of which the senior class may be proud. The staff, with G-wen Olstad at its head, and under the supervision of Miss Peterson, has been capably directed, and the work has been well executed.

HEYER, '35. Dramatic Club In January Miss VVolfinger, Miss Kniebusch, and Miss Babcock organized the Dramatic Club. About fifty students attended the first meeting, but later this number was increased to about seventy-five. The first project of the club was to organize small groups, with about eight people in each,l which were to write and enact short, ten-minute skits based upon songs. Several very good skits were given. A few weeks later, work was started on two one-act plays. Riders to the Sea, under supervision of Miss Xvolhnger, and Rising of the Moon, of which Miss Babcock and Miss Kniebusch had charge. Plans were under way to put on several of these short plays. The purpose of the Dramatic Club is to give practical dramatic experience to students. Each student is interested in some phase of dramatics, the interests varying from acting and directing to lighting and staging. The club will progress in value and interest as its members gain a taste for better dramatics and varied experience in dramatic technique. Only intimate and continued participation in play work 'can accomplish the results expected from the new club. ' ' R. HEYER, '35. Page Fifty'one THE SPARTAN ' jefferson-Athena Banquet This year the annual Jefferson-Athena Banquet was held on April ll. The decorations were in the Dutch theme, which harmonized completely with the spring weather outside. The decoration committee had worked very hard to make its part in the affair a success. On the tables were jars filled with tulips of pastel shades mixed with pussy willows. Small, picturesque figures of Dutch boys and girls were on the table to add touches of Dutch characters to the scene. Light was furnished by candles placed on the tables. In the windows were boxes of tulips and pussy willows, and on the board in the back of the room a colorful Dutch scene was depicted. - ' Covers were laid- for 124 -Ietfersonians, Athenians, and faculty members. At 6:30 o'clock on the long-awaited evening, after having been tantalized all day by the odors of delicious foods which were prepared by the hard-working, willing Band-Mothers, who are always ready to give their best in order that the students might have a good time, these people Hled into the lunch room and marched round and round until they had found their names on the blue place cards which were decorated with white Dutch windmills. XV hen everyone was seated, and a Nether- land folk tune, Hymn of Thanksgiving had been sung by the entire group, these place cards were examined, and they were found to contain the menu and the pro- gram, which consisted of speeches given by four well-known people in our school. The theme of the program being VVat? In Dutch, the speakers enlarged on the subject, Ronald Gee speaking of the VVinds, or the faculty of our schoolg VVilmar Daehn speaking on the Arms, or four classes of the school, Mr. Gunderson speak- ing on the Tower, or the school building itself. After these important parts of a students school life had been discussed, Doris Jones spoke very fluently about peo- ple who are in Dutch and what persistence means to one's success. Intermingled with these speeches were various Dutch songs, which were ably directed by Miss Bartz. Ivaloo Clausius and Norma Jewell dramatized- the song Little Dutch Mill, after which the chorus was sung by the entire group. The Girls' Trio, consisting of Doris and Helen lNakeman and Mildred Jewell, sang a very pretty little number, Little Toyland of the Dutch. The girls were in keep- ing with the theme of the program, as they were dressed in Dutch costumes. The fourth musical number was a song which was popular a few years ago, Tiptoe Through The Tulips. This song was sung by the entire group. Everyone agreed that the Jefferson-Athena Banquet this year was one of the best. Everyone had a very good time, and we know that it was an affair that will not be forgotten quickly. Following the banquet a dance in the gymnasium was open to the entire school body. Music was furnishedby the Miami Club orchestra. The committees which had worked so hard to make the banquet and the fol- lowing dance a success were: Decorating committee-Faculty advisers: Miss Huff a11d Miss Foster. Students: Emma Louise Beckman, chairmang Lucille Oswald, Norma John- son, Bill jefferson, Neil Kemp, Doris Jacobs, and Virginia George.

The Junior Prom To a high school student, the Junior Prom is the most exciting event of the school year. This year the long-awaited event occurred on May 4. The juniors, very progressive and ambitious, strove to make their Prom unique. It certainly was one which will be long-remembered. The Indian theme was well-carried out by the decorations in the gym, which were brown, orange, and yellow. The vari-colored streamers were drawn from the sides of the balcony to the center of the gym, forming a tepee-like figure. The orchestra seemed to be in a canoe. At the farther end of the gym was the punch booth, with totem poles at the corners, decorated with the predomina.nt colors of the Prom. The music committee received bids from four orchestras and Finally selected Kenny Davis and his orchestra from La Crosse. Everyone agreed that the com- mittee made a wise choice, as the music was enjoyed by everyone who attended. The dance floor was crowded, as each junior issued two invitations, besides the oral invitation given to the senior class. The alumni and the senior class were well represented, and the proud juniors were there in full array. Many members of the faculty and their guests were also present. Four committees were appointed to take charge of the carrying out of the details of the prom. Decorating Comvmittee : Faculty: Miss NVagner, Miss Baertschy, Miss Hutt, Mr. McLean, and Mr. Simonson. Students: Florence Burkitt, chairman, Douglas Burnett, chairman, Norma Abrahamson, Lester Carson, Ivaloo Clausius, Harley Hagen, Malcolm johnson, Harold Krueger, Dorothy Owens, Marietta Root, Geraldine Storandt, Virginia Cornell.

In the local final contests the judges chose the following students to represent us in the Triangular Contest at Tomah: for non-humorous declamatory, Dorothy Gee and Elaine Steel, with Dorothy Schmitz as alternate, humorous declamatory, June Nichol and Lorraine Potts, with Norma Jewell as alternate, oratory, Paul Phillips and Arthur Fleming, with NVilmar Daehn as alternateg ex- temporaneous speaking, Doris Jones and Verna Daniels, with Harley Hagen as alternate, and for extemporaneous reading, June Myers and Kathryn Frederick, with Doris jones as alternate. In the Triangular Contest, in which Sparta took second, Paul Phillips received second in orato-ry, Lorraine Potts, third in humorous declamatory, Verna Daniels, third in extemporaneous speaking, June Myers, first in extemporaneous reading, and Kathryn Frederick, second in extemporaneous reading. At the district contest at La Crosse Lorraine Potts received first in humorous declamatory. This honor enabled her to enter the state contest. June Myers re- ceived third in reading at this contest. As a who-le, we feel that Sparta did very well this year in forensics, and we surely have a lot to look forward to in the next few years. K. FREDERICK, '37.

Page Fifty-five THE SPARTAN Paddy You were such a tiny bundle of softness the first time I saw you. You were two days old, and your eyes were not yet opened. You snuggled up to your mother and whimpered when you were hungry or cold. I held you in my hand, and even though you were stretched at full lenght, you didn't entirely fill the palm of my hand. You were frightened when I took you from your mother, but as I stroked you, you became quiet and licked my fingers with your soft little tongue. As the days went by, you grew and grew. How proud you were the first time you uttered a bark! Your poor little brother and sister had no rest from that time on. A few days later you jumped out of your box for the first time. From then on, you had to be watched to see that you wouldn't run out of the yard. You were so fat and you're legs were still so wobbly, that when you ran, you nearly always fell over on your side. It was a big day for you and for us when we finally brought you home. You were still very young-only six weeks old, but we thought you wouldn't get very lonesome because your mo-ther and brother and sister were in the house next door. VVe put a big red ribbon' around your fat little neck, but you scratched and scratch- ed at it until, finally, one end was near enough to your mouth for you to grab at it. That was the end of the ribbon. That night you cried, as any little puppy does during its first night i11 a strange place. VV e were proud of you, though, because you were only six weeks, old, and still you behaved almost perfectly. Your place in our hearts grew and grew. We loved you. It didn't matter to us that you were a cross between two breeds. You were ours, we loved you, and you loved us, and that was all that mattered. It wouldn't have been natural for you to be inactive, and you were certainly far from being quiet. Your little nose snooped into everything. On several occasions I gave you three baths a day, because your inquisitive little smeller had found something that after all didn't smell at all nice. You got your punishment for it, but it was hard for any of us to spank you, because your face and eyes held such a pleading, wistful look. VV e went away for about two weeks and left you at home. IVe could hardly bear to leave you, but our homecoming was made all the more joyful when we saw youawaiting for us. You were such a tiny thing, but we were almost afraid you would tear our clothes off us, you were so eager to be petted. And so you grew. Your intelligence seemed almost human at times. You were very obedient, excepting, of course, when you gave chase to something or other. Then came school days. VV e hated to part with you in the morning, and you would have followed us to school if we had given you the chance. At noon and at four o'clock in the afternoon you were waiting for us like a little sentinel. We'd have a grand romp with you then, and how you loved it! One sunny October morning we left you, as usual, playing happily with your ball, your rubber bone, and an old shoe. You ran after a few squirrels and barked at a passing car. You were happy and carefree. At noon, when we came home, eager to see you and to play with you we found you lying on an old soft rug in the garage. VVe were told no-t to go near you, because you were sick. Your eyes said more to us than a thousand tongues. They beseeched us to take you in our arms and hold you close. NVe cried, and so did you. That was the last time we saw you. XVhen we came home after school you were gone, but your spirit was everywhere. Your image is implanted in our memories-it shall never be erased. RUTH HEXYER, 3S.

Chase It was bright and cheerful for Chase the day he was told he had been bought by the Chicago baseball team. This incident happened shortly after he had pitched his team to a 4 to O victory over St. Paul. Incidently it was a no-hit game as well as his twenty-third victory of the year. In the o-ne week that remained, his team had to win three out of the remaining live games. He was scheduled to pitch the first and fifth games, and jones, an- other good pitcher, was to pitch the second game. As might have been expected, Chase breezed through the first game with an easy victory. Unexpectedly Chase's team fell into a slump after winning the second game, and lost the third and fourth games. Fortunately the fifth game was postponed on account of rain. This allowed Chase's team more time to snap out of the slump. In the ninth inning of the final game with the score tied one and one, Chase came to bat. He took a lirm grip on the bat and set his teeth with grim determina- tion. The first pitch came in wide and low for a ball. The next two were strikes. With the count one and two against him, Chase met the next pitch with plenty of punch and sent a high, towering fly to the deep centerfield bleachers. For a seco-nd it looked as if the ball would fall short, but luckily, a blast of wind came up and sailed the ball into the centerlield bleachers for a home run, winning the game and pennant. N. ROSEN, '37. Page Fifty-eight THE SPARTAN Amelia's Revolt Miss Amelia Arabella Imogene Standen sent her beige-colored gloves in the genera.l direction of the piano bench and flung these words after them, Darn old Geezerlf' lVith a muttered' YVell, that's thatlu she slumped into one corner of the davenport and aimed her saucy red hat at the head of Plato. Plato, none too pleased at this exhibition of perfect marksmanship, tottered uncertainly on the edge of the pia.no and then decided for the better. F rom the depths of an old overcoat in a basket emerged a sad-eyed little Boston bull-dog. Lo, Po0chie, sighed Miss Standen as she dropped a ridiculously small, spike-heeled, beige-colored pump over the edge of the davenport. She shed her beige polo coat and left it lying, like a deserted cocoon, on the arm of a chair. The other little beige-colored slipper was given a vicious start toward its mate. He can't get away with that, Amelia told the sad-eyed little dog. l'll show him! Nlfho does he think he is, anyway? What right has he to tell me when l should get to that stuffy old office? She was pretty and blond and given to letting difficult matters solve them- selves. Amelia had a furious temper and very little foresight. She worked in the down town office of a Mr. james B. Strowl, whose business seemed to be composed mainly of dictating short, hard letters to Miss Standen and command- ing that they be sent to the renters in La Palace Square who had defaulted. It seemed to Amelia that Mr. Strowl would be much nicer if he'd stop exercising his inexhaustible temper on her. However, all pretty little secretaries get more than their share o-f scoldings. Somehow, it isn't just exactly fair! This very morning Mr. Strowl had wasted forty-five minutes of Amelia's time just because she had been fifteen minutes late. He even threatened to fire her if she was ever more than fifteen seconds behind time again. Miss Amelia Standen had become so accustomed to the violence of Mr. Strowl's temper that she missed his curt remarks when she was away from the office. Especially did she miss them when she was alone with nothing to do but sit by one o-f the windiws of her little two-room apartment and watch the peo- ple in the street below and feel the cool spring breezes against her face. That was what she was thinking just now, but for all the world no outsider would have known it. Tonight she was indignant! No boss could tell her what time to get to a stuffy old office! No sir! She was going to hand him her resignation tomorrow morning. She'd show him who he was. He couldn't get away with that. He just could go and hunt himself up a new secretary. She was through! fAmelia had not yet realized what effect this procedure might have upon herself. For the present she had forgotten how scarce jobs in Manhattan were.j She would walk in as late as she pleased and just calmly go up to his desk and lay a pink slip in front of him and then show him her pretty little high heels. But Qfor the moment panic engulfed herj she couldn't quit with- out either a week's notice or else some plausible excuse. Hm, well, she'd have a good alibi! She could say that her mother was ill and needed her at home. No that wouldn't do! He knew that both her parents had been killed in a train ac- cident. NV ell, how about her grandmother? Nope! She'd already taken a day off for each o-f their funerals even though both of them had been resting in their Page Fifty-nine THE SPARTAN graves several years before Amelia had known that Mr. James B. Strowl existed. What could she say? She'd have to tell him something! Next morning Miss Standen arose as usual at seven o'clock. She took her time' about dressing and stopped several times to examine a snag in her hoisery, to admire herself in the large mirror of her dressing table, to- try various effects produced by the re-arrangement of a blond curl, or to touch up a weak-spot in the coloring of her lips. Her mind was fully occupied with what she was going to say to Mr. Strowl when she got to the office. Her mind was so occupied, in fact, that she didn't even have room to think about the time. By eight o'clock she was fully arrayed. Amelia made a striking figure in her ruffled white organdy with its enormous tangerine sash. Her slender white arms were encircled with bright tangerine colored bracelets that clanked together with every bend of her elbows or wrists. The costume was delightful for an afternoon tea party but hardly appropriate for ordinary office work. NV ell. Amelia didn't intend to wear it for ordinary office work. She wanted to look her prettiest when she faced Mr. Strowl this morning. She could leave a more varied impression if she looked very pretty and very angry. At eight-thirty she ate breakfast in a downtown cafe. Then she spent another half-hour looking in the shop windows of Eighth and Main streets. At nine o'clock, exactly thirty minutes behind time, Amelia arrived at the office building. There was an extraordinary quiet about the place, which was usual- ly ushering in and out a stream of people. However, the tide usually stopped at the beginning of office hours and it was past that nowg perhaps, every one else was already steeped in the day's cares. Otto, the elderly elevator operator, slid back the door at sight of Amelia. Mornin', Mani! You workin' today ? he offered by way of greeting. She did not answer but silently weighed his words. The old codger must be getting absent-minded. VVorkin' today! Old stupid-didn't she work every day but Saturday and Sunday? VVhen the elevator clanked to a stop at the seventh floor, she stepped out. There was a hollow feeling somewhere in the region of her diphragm, and her mouth was as dry as it would have been if she had just come from winning a three mile run. Hmph, she'd like to kick herself. Getting sobby right now when she should be calm. Mr. Stowl was an old Meany! All right, here goes! She straightened her shoulders and turned up the corners of her mouth in a cynical smile. XV ith her hand on the knob of the door, she paused and cleared her throat. Then she turned the knob. It stuck! Funny! He should be here. Suddenly she remembered the sly grin on Otto's face when he said You go- ing to work today? Let's see-yesterday was the sixteenth. Today must be the seventeenth! The seventeenth! XV hy she had an important date tonight. Now who was it? She summoned a small black book from the recesses of an over-crowded white purse. Thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth, sixteenth-here it is-Hml Dinner uf 8:30. Jim. Zllay 17 th. VVho was Jim? She couldn't remember his last name. D-iimer at 8:30. Jim. .May 17th. Sat., May l7th! ! W'hy-VVhy-she didn't have to work today. She never wo-rked on Saturday. So that's what Otto had meant by XVorkin' today. Now Page Sixty THE SPARTAN what would she do? She couldn't go in the oifice. The door was locked! None of the other girls worked on Saturday either. She couldn't go down in Otto's elevator, because her pride had to be considered. It would kill her to walk all the way down those seven flights of stairs. That was too much for anyone. VVhile she was thus engaged, Otto's elevator brought up another passenger. Amelia did not take the trouble of seeing who it was. The person walked straight past her, then suddenly turned and stopped. Oh, Miss Standen! Good morning, came James B. Strowl's brisk voice. Amelia gulped but said nothing, and Mr. Strowl went on talking as he un- locked the door. I am surprised to find you here! I have been trying to locate you for the last two hours. Now that you are here I presume that you wish to work. I I have some very important facts that must be tiled and recorded today. Sorry I have to ask you to work overtime. He fumbled with a drawer and produced a stack of papers. Here you are, he said as he handed them to Amelia without even looking at her. Go through these and sum up all the items of each one separately. Then tile them according to dates, names, and amounts. That will be three files of each one. Make an extra copy of each for the efficiency agent. He'll call for them at eleven thirty. Do you understand what you are supposed to do? He hadn't even noticed her bright new outfit! ! ! Amelia's whole being quivered with revolt, but her hands reached out and took the papers.

' My sympathy goes to those poor girls Xvhose sisters care not what you say, And sans permission wear the clothes That you have saved for some special day. Dokis WAKEMAN, '35. Some Tall Ones . Some yarns that the 'caretakers at Polly Falls have told would make Paul Bunyan look like Truthful james. First among the storytellers was old Art Brown. He could tell more adventures as he called them, than anyone else. His clothes he never took offg swimming, sleeping, or hunting, he always had them on. One time in the winter he was fishing on the ice and caught such a big fish that it pulled him through and ten miles down stream before he could stop it. The fish are so big in this creek that one time when he was walking along and decided to get on the other side, he stepped on what he supposed was a big log, but which turned out to be a big trout. Down he went on the trout's back. That fish went up and down the river for three days without giving Art a chance to get off. He steered this giant specimen by kicking him in the ribs. Finally the trout grew tired and Art ran him up on the sandbar. Believe it or not, he was going so fast that he went ten yards upon the bank before he stopped. Yes, Art was a great fellow for pets. Once he had a pet rainbow trout that followed him around, but one day, as they were out walking, the fish fell off of the bridge and drowned. Art never needed a pole for fishing but waded in over his head and threw out fish right and left for ten minutes, and he had a great big pile of fish on the bank when he came up for air. Besides being a first class fisherman, Art was a hunter of no mean ability. One day he was .walking along in the woods and saw a deer pop up from behind a tree. Quick as a wink Art drew abead and fired. Down it went. Art started to go over to pick up the deer and go home when it popped up again. Our hero repeated his shooting of the deer. It fell down and again popped up. Art was disgusted by this time, but he kept firing. After five minutes, since the deer failed to appear again, Art went over to carry it home. Lo and behold, there lay a whole herd of deer that he had killed. Page Sixty-two THE SPARTAN The new caretaker, Herb, also had similar experiencesg for example, one time he was fishing down by the falls and had no luck. Suddenly he heard a great deal of noise, and looking up he saw a big pike trying to jump the falls. Boy. that pike was so big that his head would be over the top of the falls while his tail was still in the water. Herb grabbed a big tow-rope and lassoed the pike but couldn't hold him, so he tied the pike to a great big jack pine while he ran to get his rifle. Just as Herb got to the top of the hill, he heard a crash. Wlhat do you think had hap- pened? The pike had pulled the tree over, and it lay across the creek. Besides this, the giant fish had jerked so hard he had pulled oif his head, which Herb was going to mount in the cabin but decided it would take up too much room. Herb has proof of that tale because even today you can go there and see the tree that is down and the skull of the fish. TED JEFFERSON, '38, Warehouse Thirty-Nine Chief Moore sat smoking a black stogie, feet crossed on his desk, intently scanning the columns of the Ti111c.r. Four or five other men lounged around the station, smoking, reading, or playing cards or checkers. The door of the office opened, and a secretary spoke, Some one to see you. sir. He says it,s very important. e Very well, Ca.lahan, said Moore, laying down his paper. I'll see him at once. The secretary stepped out and returned with a short, elderly man with dark hair and a semitic nose. From under his dark derby his voice rasped out like two files rubbing together. I been swindledf' he started. I was given the bills for payment for mine rugs. They're no good. Here-look! He shoved some bills into Moores hands. Moore squinted at the bills and said, Come into my office a second, and l'll have a look at these bills. Then he added, By the way, you haven't told me your name. Lyman-Ben Lyman. I own the rug shop on the corner of XVabash and Thirty-Second Streetf' This business looks plenty serious, Moore muttered. You darn right it's serious! T'ink of it. Seventy-live bucks passed onto me-and all of 'em phoney. And my rugs-,' I wasn't thinking of that. Mr. Lyman. I just wonder ho-w much other money has been passed around. Moore scrutinized the bills carefully under a magnifying glass. They're phoney, all right, he finally pronounced. Vot are we going to do? Seventy-Eve dollars, I have lost. Oi, oi- Moore disregarded the Jew but mumbled to himself, This looks like a case for Ted Haskins. He's the one man in town that can get to the bottom of this. Moore grabbed the phone on his desk. Lakef1eld 2150--Hello, Ted? Say, hoof it over to the station. Got a big job for you-O.K. hurry. Page Sixty-three THE SPARTAN Ten minutes later a slender, blue-eyed, square-jawed young man of less tha.n thirty-five entered Chief Moore's private office. It was Ted Haskins, the veteran detective. VVell, what's up ? he inquired. Plenty! exploded Moore. Lyman broke in, Yeah, you said it. I was slipped them- Take it easy, Lyman, interrupted Moore. Then, turning to Ted, This man was passed three phoney bills in his shop. Suppose you look over the place. He can tell you all about it on the way over. O.K., Moore, spoke the detective. On the way to the rug shop, in a cab, Haskins learned the particulars. Two well-dressed men ha.d entered Lyman's place early in the afternoon, had bought three rugs totaling seventy-tive dollars, had paid cash for them and had hauled them away in a truck. Later the Jew had noticed the bills were counterfeit and had hurried to the police. Now they entered Lyman's Rug Shop together. At the left, rugs adorned the wall. Back farther were tables with samples strewn about on them. The counter was along the right side of the shop. Numerous chairs were scattered along the left side. After asking several questions, Haskins was about to go when he noticed a small white card under one of the chairs. He walked over, picked it up, and read, Smith and Peters Antique Shoppe, 618 Central Avenue. He pocketed the card, and bending over an ash tray by the chair took a band off a recently deposited cigar. Queer brandf' he mumbled to himself. Then turning to the Jew he asked, VV ere either of the two men smoking when they came in ?', Yes, the shorter one was smoking a cigar. VV hy ? And he sat over there in that chair ? Haskins continued. Sure, He sat there when I went back to get some samples. Somethin' up ? I don't know yet, Haskins said as he walked out. Once inside a cab, Ted gave the driver the address written on the card, then settled down to think the situation over. He left the cab a block past the store. He walked back past the shop, taking care to notice the 'Antique Shoppe sign as he passed. Ted then retraced his steps and entered the shop. An old wrinkled man came up to wait on him. Ted looked the place over carefully. Everything seemed natural. After inquiring about the prices of some articles, he bought a chea.p trinket and walked out. Back again in the chiefs private office Ted was greeted with five other reports of counterfeit money being passed around. He reahzed the importance of speed on this case. He would have to work fast before too much money was passed out. Ted told the chief to place an article in the newspapers to warn the public about the counterfeiters. He kept the details about the clues he had found and his visit to the Antique Shoppe to himself. That night found Ted again in the vicinity of the Antique Shoppe? After leaving the cab a block away, he walked past the shop to make certain no one was in it. Then, he cut up the alley and finally came to the back door of the build- ing. He immediately produced a bunch of skeleton keys from his pocket, the Page Sixty-four THE SPARTAN third one he tried unlocked the door. Once inside, he turned on his flashlight. Silently he glided across the room. He found everything as it had been in the afternoon. D He began to wonder if, perhaps, he were wrong, when suddenly his foot tripped on a rug, exposing a trap-door. At once he lifted it and flashed the light upon a stairs leading downward. A dank, fowl odor rase as he started to descend. Once down in the dark cellar he shuffled forward slowly when his beam of light fell upon something which made him shrink back in horror! There in front of him, still swinging slightly, was the body of a man dangling from a beam over- head, his feet barely six inches off the floor. He gazed, somewhat stunned, at the corpse, and it was with great effort that he slowly turned away to continue his ex- ploration of the cellar. Cold beads of sweat gathered on his forehead. Upon turning his Hashlight in another direction, he was again startled at what he saw. On one side was a table upon which were several small boxes and a telephone. On the other side were all sorts of boxes and piles of furniture, rugs, and other expensive articles. Examin- ing the small boxes he found they contained watches, rings, bracelets, and other valuable gems and jewels. On closer inspection Ted found BAC 1207 written 11ear the telephone. He copied the numbers and was still examining the phone when he heard a door click shut above him. Voices followed. Here he was-with enough evidence to swing any jury-trapped like a rat. However, he kept cool and very quiet. He heard the voices o-f two people above. One had a rather low, gruff voice, while the other's was higher pitched. . The gruff voice spoke first, Not a bad haul today, eh Jake ? . Fair, returned the higher voice, laconically, presumably that of Jake's. Then he added, Hank'll never try to squeal again. ' Then the gruff voice, He was a darn fool, jake. W'ell, let's go down and call up the general and make our report. Then Ted acted! He had hoped they wouldn't come down cellar, but would leave, and thus give him a chance to escape, unnoticed. Ted's flashlight spotted a small window about seven feet off the floor. He jumped, caught a dusty beam, and flung his feet through the window. Pulling a .box over, he stood on it and began forcing his way through the opening. The cellar was flooded with light, and, with only super-human effort, Ted struggled through the aperture and into the night. Shots were fired, and a bullet tugged at his coat sleeve. But he was safe! in He ran a block, hailed a cab, and in three minutes was in the C hief's office. Gimme a phone, quick! he shouted. V Ringing the operator he found out where the BAC 1207 place was-lVare- house thirty-nine along the water-front off One-hundred Thirty-third Street. Turning to the puzzled chief he exploded, Quick, get three squads at once and follow me. Chief Moore barked orders, the police scattered, and soon three squad cars rolled out onto the street. Sirens silenced, they tore down the street towards the water-front. A block f rom Vlfarehouse thirty-nine, they stopped and got out. Ted gave the final instructions. Stay where I station you and advance only at the sound of Page Sixtygfive THE SPARTAN gun-fire, not before. Then surround the warehouse and raid it, letting no one escape. Is that understood ? Grunts implying the affirmative answered him. Then Ted stationed the squads at various points surrounding the warehouse. One squad went to Kutchernick's Meat Shop, another to a Chinese Laundry, and the third, led by Moore, to a vacant store. Ted advanced upon the warehouse alone, and sneaked up to a side door. Again producing his set of skeleton keys, he soon opened the door and entered. He flashed his light around and found he was into a small work-shop. Find- ing nothing of importance, he proceeded through a door into a larger room. His hunch had been right! Here were rows of counterfeiting machines and tables upon which were ink, paper, and other odds and ends usually found in counterfeitefs dens. After a brief inspection he passed on into a hall. Light was coming from under a door of a room at the far end of the dirty hall-way. Silently he glided along until he came to the room. He heard voices and stooped to one side to listen and gain evidence. One man seemed to be the boss. He wa.s speaking, So someone was snooping around the eighteenth supply station-and he got away--hmm, not so good. But, General, we got stuff at the twelfth station alone worth more'n two grand, and- some one broke in. Shut up, fool. I was wondering if they learned too much- So the general was there! That's all Ted Haskins wanted to know. He had enough evidence now to send them all up the river- But the shadowy form drew near. Ted turned just in time. The shot was wild. In a minute the gang was out- side. But the three squads were quicker. In the next mornings Times, Chief Moore, with his feet on his desk and a black cigar in his mouth, read how Ted Haskins, the veteran detective, had out- witted and captured a most dangerous gang of counterfeiters.

SAMUELSON, Athletic Director Mr. Samuelson came to us last fall, a recent graduate of the University ot Iowa where he was active in athletics. He arrived at Sparta at a time when the athletic outlook was anything but bright. tHe immedi- ately set whole-heartedly to work and his untiring efforts have brought Sparta High the best athletic sea- son of the past several years. He makes all work hard, but he is a hard worker himself and his line spirit in- spires the members of his teams. He is very well-liked by his boys and all who know him. Sparta High is indeed fortunate to have such a capable man at the MR. SAMUELSON head of its athletic department. Page Sixty-eight THE SPARTAN . Football VV hen our new coach called out the football volunteers, he was not deeply impressed. There were several veterans from the previous year's team back, but on the whole the team was small and inexperienced. Slowly but surely the team began to take shape and finally was in fair enough condition to give any team in the conference a good rub. Sparta. though beaten in most of the games, wasalways fighting and came through the season in a fair way. Many of this year's players were only sophomores and juniors and will beback nent year. i SPARTA VS. ELROY - Sept. 15 SPARTA 125 ELROY 0. In the first game of the season the inexperienced Spartans slipped and pushed their way to a 12-0 victory over an experienced Elroy squad. The game was played under conditions which were totally unsuitable for a football game. There was a hard driving rain and the mud was ankle deep. Sparta put on a drive in the first period which was stopped within the ten yard line, but the team came back a minute later to put it over for the first touchdown of the season. Sparta threatened several other times in the second quarter but was unable to put the ball over. Sparta scored another touchdown in the fourth quarter, which ended the scoring for the day. SPARTA VS. VIROQUA Sept. 22 SPARTA 195 XIIROQUA 6. The Viroqua team came to Sparta to encounter the Spartan Ponies in the first conference game of the season. The strength of the teams was unknown and a close game was in prospect. In the end, however, Viroqua proved to be weak and Sparta romped to a 19-6 victory. Coach Samuelson used practically all of his reserves in an effort to get a line on them. Sparta scored early in the game and was never in danger. Viroquafs touchdown came after Sparta had cinched the game. Sparta showed promise. Hibbe and Salisbury were outstanding for the locals. SPARTA VS. RICHLAND CENTER' i Sept. 29 RICHLAND CENTER 265 SPAR1iA 0. Sparta traveled to Richland Center to be defeated by the heavy Center boys 26-O. Sparta was outweighed at least 10 pounds to the man. The Spartans put up a game fight, but were not equal to the task of stopping the experienced Center eleven. Center scored in the first period, leaving no doubt as to who wo-uld be re- turned the winner. Sparta threatened the Richland Center goal several times but was not able to put the ball over for a score. Richland Center clearly deserves their 26-O victory. Page Sixty-nine THE SPARTAN BARABOO VS. SPARTA Qct, 13 BARABOO 85 SPARTA 0. Barabooand Sparta entered the contest on equal terms. Baraboo scored a touchdown early-inthe game and from then on played a defensive game. Later in the game they -threw Sparta back for a safety making the score SFO.

A Sparta traveled to Portage to engage the reputedly strong Portage eleven. The -Portage squad, undefeated, expected an easy -victory over the Ponies, but was given quite a surprise. Portage scored first in the opening quarter. Sparta camexback with a beautiful touchdown in the second quarter, Shultz carrying the ball over, 'The half ended 7-7. A much heavier Portage team began to wear down the Spartans and Portage scored on a blocked pass and a beautiful run. They again scored on a pass in the fourth quarter. Sparta scored another touchdown late in the fourth quarter. Spa.rta showed a fighting spirit and a much impoved game. ' REEDSBURG VS. SPARTA Oct. 27 REEDSBURG Og SPARTA 12. W'hen Reeclsburg came to Sparta, the ponies won with a conference victory by a score of 12-0. The game was hard-fought from start to finish. The Spartans completly outplayed their opponents and threw away many chances to score. Spartathreatened the Reedsburg goal line several times in the First quarter, but was unable to provide the necessary punch to put the ball over. Finally, in the seco-nd quarter, Hibbe carried the ball over, giving Sparta a 6-0 lead. Sparta came back in the fourth quarter and scored another touchdown. Hibbe, with his running, and Strouts with his blocking, were outstanding for Sparta. SPARTA VS. TOMAH Nov. 3 TOMAH 45g SPARTA O. In. the last game of the season, Tomah came to Sparta for the biggest game of the season. Sparta was primed for the battle, but was greatly disappointed as a superior Tomah team marched over the locals. The game was even until about the middle of the third quarter when a fumble turned the tide of battle in favor of Tomah. From then on, Tomah made scores at will. The Sparta team seemed to be completely demolished and went down to its worst defeat in years. The final score was Tomah 45, Sparta 0. The passing combination of Shepherd and Knoblach was outstanding for Tomah.

VV hen the call for basketball was issued it was answered by boys of every size, shape, and age. A class tournament was held so that Mr. Samuelson could get a line on his players. lVhen he had his team picked, he began on hard drills. Soon the team was in condition. This team was a rather hard luck team, losing many games by 2 or 4 points, but it came through in the tournament to cop third place, the first time in many years. There was also a B squad under Mr. Kane. They played several outside schools and showed great promise. Many of these players will make up next year's squad. NVILTON AT SPARTA SPARTA 425 XVILTON 10. Nov. 19, 1934. VVith only two lettermen returning from last year's team, Sparta opened its season by defeating VVilton 42-10. Sparta exhibited a powerful offense for so early in the season. Practically the entire squad was used by Coach Samuelson in an effort to get a line on his material.

Playing their second game of the season against Norwalk the Spartan Ponies continued their fine brand of basketball in downing the Norwalk boys by the lop- sided score of 48-10. The game started slowly, but the Spartans picked up speed as they went along. Coach Samuelson again used his entire squad. VIOLA AT SPARTA SPARTA 433 VIOLA 9. Nov. 28, 1934. Sparta's offense continued as the boys easily downed Viola 43-9. The passing and floor play were much smoother than in their previous two games. Jake Vander XVoud and Skip Fleming led the Spartans with 12 points each. MINDORO AT SPARTA . r r SPARTA 11. MINDoRo 9. Dec. 3, 1934. Holding Mindoro to two field goals, Sparta won her fourth straight game. The play was rather ragged at the beginning, but as the game progressed the Spartans looked better. The locals were led by Milburn and VanderXN'0ud with 11 and 9 points respectively. 3 Page Seventy-three THE SPARTAN XVAUSAU AT SPARTA VVAUSAU 25g SPARTA 10. Dec. 7, 1934. The powerful XVausau team invaded the Sparta court to give the Ponies their first defeat of the season by the score of 25-10. Sparta played well, but was completely outclassed by a superior VVausau five. VVausau started the game with a teamr that averaged six feet or better, and this superior height proved to be a big handicap to the locals. - CASHTON AT SPARTA SPARTA 285 CASHTON 8. Dec. 11, 1934. Sparta took the measure of a weak Cashton team by the score of 28-8. The Ponies held Cashton to one field goal, but could not show much in the line of offense herself. VanderVVoud led the Spartans with eight points. CAMP DOUGLAS AT SPARTA SPARTA 28g CAMP DOUGLAS 6. Dec. 14, 1934. The Spartans brought their pre-conference schedule to a close with a victory. The Spartan offense failed to click consistantly until the last two minutes when a flurry of shots brought the score from 12-6 to a 28-6 final score. The failure of the team in the early part of the game was due to a long lay off for the Christmas vacation. SPARTA AT BARABOO BARABOO Sg SPART.-x 6. Dec. 21, 1934. Sparta traveled to Baraboo to play its first conference game. Due to a very slippery Hoor, the game was decidedly of a defensive nature. The speedy Spartan offense was-ineffective on the slippery floor. The half ended with the teams tied at 2-2i Sparta went ahead 6-2 at outset of second half, but three long shots gave Baraboo the lead and the game. Final score 8-6. VanderVVoud was high for Sparta with 4 points. SPARTA AT TOMAH TOMAH 215 SPARTA 9. Jan. 11, 1935. Sparta invaded the Tomah court for the second conference game, and ex- perienced its second straight conference defeat. Sparta's offense failed to click in the firsthalf and the boys left the Hoor on the short end of a 10-O score. The Ponies came back in the second half to show a much better brand of ball, but found Tomah's lead too great a handicap. At the end of the game, the score stood Tomah 21, Sparta 9. Page Seventy-four THE SPARTAN VIROQUA AT SPARTA VIROQUA 155 SPARTA 25 Jan. 15, 1935 XVhen Viroqua came to Sparta, the Ponies again won by the score of 25-15. Sparta took an early lead, which it never relinquished. Viroqua came close several times, but failed to take the lead. The Spartans showed a very great improvement over their playing against Tomah the preceding week end. Their passing was much smoother, and although they had a tendency to let down when they had a big lead, they immediately tightened up when the game was closer. SPARTA AT LA CROSSE LA Cizossa 19g SPARTA 13. Ian. 18, 1935. The Hagert men handed the Spartans their third conference defeat, but only after a very hard battle. Sparta put up a very good defense in the first half and left the court at the rest period trailing S-6. The second half proved as exciting as the first, but the pace began to tell on Coach Samuelsonis men, and Logan ran up enough points to win 19-13. The Spartans played their best game to date and served notice that they would be dangerous the rest of the way. PORTAGE AT SPARTA SPARTA 243 PORTAGE 21. Jan. 25, 1935. Sparta came through with its second conference victory of the year in one of the best games seen on the local court in years. Sparta started out in whirl- wind fashion and only the beautiful long shots of Kenny kept Portage in the game. The half ended with the teams deadlocked 12-12. Sparta came back strong in the second and held a 24-21 lead two minutes before the end of the game. Portage had the crowd on its feet in the remaining time, but Sparta won 24-21. LOGAN AT SPARTA LOGAN 235 SPARTA 21. Feb. 1, 1935. Following the exciting Portage game, another thriller was presented to local fans when Sparta met Logan on the home court. The game was not so well-played as the Portage game. but proved as exciting. The score at the half was 12-12. In the second half the teams matched point for point and with a minute to go, Logan lead 23-21. The crowd was on its feet in the last moments as Sparta took shot after shot only to have the ball roll in and out. Sparta lost 23-21, but de- served a great deal of credit for its playing. i Page Seventy-five T1-IE SPARTAN SPARTA AT PORTAGE SPARTA 313 PORTAGE 12. Feb. 8, 1935. Sparta traveled to Portage where they acquired its third conference victory in a ragged game. The game was very rough and poorly played. Sparta couldn't get started in the first half and left the court tied S-8. They came back in the second half to score 23 points to Portage's 4, winning 31-12. VanderXVoud and Hallman were high men for Sparta with S points each. BARABOO AT SPARTAV BARABOO 21g SPARTA 17 Feb. 22, 1935 Sparta entered the game with three players on the sick list. Fleming, Ball- man, and VanderXVoud were all weak from recent sickness. The game started fast with Sparta leading 5-1 at one time. Baraboo put on a spurt and from then on were never headed. Sparta, though beaten, put up a great fight and deserves much credit for their showing. If the team had been in better condition, the game would have been faster and more interesting to watch. TOMAH AT SPARTA TOMAH 233 SPARTA 21 March 1, 1935 In the big game of the year, the Tomah Indians downed their rivals 23-21. It was the most exciting game seen in years. Tomah entered the game heavy fav- orites because of their imposing record and a previous victory over the Spartans. The Sparta team showed more fight than at anytime this year. They matched Tomah point for point in the first quarter. It ended 7-7. From here on it was a close battle. Wlith one minute to go Knoblach broke through for a basket. Sparta had a great chance to beat the score but failed. Tomah emerged 23-21 victor in their hardest battle in years. VIROQUA AT VIROQUA SPARTA 203 VIROQU.-X 13 March 7, 1935 The ponies traveled to Viroqua for their last conference game and emerged a 20-13 winner. The game was slow as the Sparta team was obviously off form. The score at the half was 10-10. Viroqua stepping out in front at the beginning of the third quarter, but Sparta regained the lead and succeeded in holding it until the end. Page Seventy-six THE SPARTAN Sparta Tournament VV isconsin High 27 XVISCONSIN HIGH VS. RICHLAND CENTER Richland Center 12 In the first game of the tournament, a strong XVisconsin High team easily downed Richland Center by a score of 27-12.

They led 15-5 at half time and 23-7 at the end of the third period. At this point, substitutes were used who held their own. Morrison, lVisconsin High forward, starred with nine points. Reedsburg 23 REBDSBURG VS. VIROQUA Viroqua 12 Reedsburg, with only one man returning from last years championship team, easily defeated Viroqua in the first game by the top-heavy score of 23-12. Reeds- burg led all the way. They jumped into an early 10-2 lead increasing it to 15-4 at the intermission. Bob VValker led in the scoring with four field goals. Wfalby was out-standing for Viroqua. Tomah 21 TOMAH VS. PORTAGE Portage 20 In the first game o-f the first night, Tomah and Portage met in a very thrilling battle. Tomah was favored to win, but an inspired Portage five fought them to a standstill. The lead see-sawed back and forth all through the game. Portage led 5-4 at the end of the first quarter and 10-9 at half time. Tomah apparently clinched the game by gaining a 19-14 lead at the third quarter, but Portage came back and led 20-19 with less than half a minute to go. Just as the gun went off Fredricks made a beautiful shot, giving Tomah the victory by a score of 21-20. Sparta 23 SPARTA VS. BARABOO Baraboo 24 Smarting under two previous defeats, Sparta set out to trounce Baraboo, but were not quite equal to the task. Starting out like champions, Sparta led by a 14-0 score at the quarter. Sparta let down in the second quarter holding only a 14-10 lead at half time. In the third period, the two teams played on even terms and at the end of the third period, Sparta led 21-16. In the last quarter, Baraboo kept banging away and finally won out 24-23. VanderVVoud starred for Sparta with ten points. . Viroqua 31 VIROQUA VS. RICHLAND CENTER Richland Center 16 In the first game on Friday afternoon Viroqua easily downed a tired Richland Center five by a 31-16 margin. Viroqua led all the way and proved to be the superior team. Both coaches inserted substitutes in the final period. Fortney with nine po-ints and Wfalby with eight were high for the game. Page Sevent s THE SPARTAN Sparta 16 SPARTA VS. PORTAGE I ii Portage 12 In the second game on Friday afternoon, Sparta and Portage gave the fans another thriller. 'The game started slowly., Portage leading at the quarter 2-0. In the second' quarter the game picked up, the score being knotted at halftime 7-7.

Smith, a Portage guard, broke an ankle and VanderXVoud, Sparta's star center, broke a bone in his wrist. I f I VVisconsin High 23 XVISCONSINQHIGH VS. REEDSBURG Reedsburg 18 VVisconsin High eliminated a fighting Reedsburg team 23-18 in the first game of Friday night. VVisconsin High showed beautiful ball and led 9-1 at the first quarter, 13-6 at the half, and 18-8 at the third quarter. The work of W'ordle of VVisconsin High was outstanding. Wfischoff was high for Reedsburg. Tomah 14 TOMAH VS. BARABOO Baraboo 11 In probably the mo-st exciting game of the tournament Tomah downed a game with Baraboo five by 14-11. The score at halftime was 4-2 in favor of Baraboo. At the end of the regulation time the score was tied 9-9. Two overtimes were neces- sary to decide the game. Baraboo got a basket and Tomah two free throws in the first overtime. Fredrick was again the Tomah hero when he looped a long throw, giving Tomah the right to enter the Hnals. 6 Sparta 29 SPARTA VS. VIROQUA Viroqua 21 In the consolation game of the tourney, Sparta won a well deserved victory over Viroqua by a 29-21 margin. Sparta flashed a brilliant ball leading all the way. The score stood at 6-3 at the end of first period, 13-9 at halftime, and 29-21 at the end of the game. Fleming-was easily the outstanding star for Sparta with 16 points. Viroqua fought hard, but was no match for the determined Sparta Quint who still had the memory of their first game fresh in their mind. Tomah 24 TOMAH VS. NVISCONSIN HIGH Wisconsin High 23 The final game of the tournament was worthy to be called a championship game. Both teams were fairly even, the lvisconsin High leading in the first quarter 5-3. In the second qua.rter Wisconsin High stepped out and took a 12-7 lead. In the third quarter VVisc0nsin High seemed certain of winning with a score of 23-15, but they didn't know this Tomah outfit. The Indians kept banging away and slowly whittled VVisconsin High's lead down. During the last second of play, they won the right to represent this district in the state tournament.

All those boys who had letters were permitted to join. XVednesday' was set as Lettermen's day and on this day each boy is to wear his letter. The club has proved to be a big success. They were the leaders in the drive for new basketball suits. The members who were not on the basketball squad had special seats set off at games. The annual Lettermen's party was given and proved to be a huge success. They realized a good profit on the party and this, with additional funds, will be used for a picnic to be held near the close of school. A N Page Seventy-nine T H E S P A R T A N Spring Sports This spring baseball was offered as a major sport for the first time since be- fore the NVorld VVar. VVhen the call for candidates went out, over eighty boys answered. ilifithin two weeks, Coach Samuelson had cut his squad to twenty men. A scheduleiof ten games was drawn up, but due to had weather conditions early in the season, many of the early games had to be postponed. Though the fellows are new to the game, they havetshown ,a special aptitude for it. Large crowds have turned out at the home games, and baseball promises to become a very popu- lar sport ,in Sparta in the future. The scores of the games played to date are Sparta 13, Cashton 4g Bangor 9, Sparta 83 and New Lisbon 10, Sparta 6. Althoughtrack was dropped as the major sport at Sparta High, a few of those still interested' entered the track meet at Baraboo, May 4. Only five of the men trying out were accepted. In the meet they scored as follows: Clark ll, Hanson 8, Milburn 6, Fleming 5, and Ballman 3. Spartan fans were pleased as well as surprised by the very good showing these boys made. XV ith a little train- ing, they would have given Portage and Baraboo, winners of the first and second places, a close run for the title. N-o trackmen were sent to the District Meet at La Crosse. Golf, under the direction of Mr. Kane, proved to be a worthwhile sport. Eight candidates 'reported for the team, four of whom were chosen to represent Sparta: Jake Vander VVoud, Spiz Jones, Douglas Burnett, and Bags Evans. The other four candidates who will probably see action are Bill jefferson, Ed Rue, Lloyd Kupper, and Bill Gleiss. Several matches were scheduled. There were two dual meets with La Crosse Logan, two with VVeSt Salem, and a tourna- ment at Reedsburg. In order to give every boy in school a chance to participate in some form of athletics, a number of other sports are being carried on. Spring basketball was started this year and a number of likely-looking candidates for next year's team are playing. 'Spring football, under Mr. W'olford, is progressing well with such notables as Doc Salisbury and Rusty DeVVitt out. Speed ball is carried on in con- nection with football. Earlier in the season, boxing and wrestling were of- fered to those who wished to participate in them. All the coaches are to be complimented on their fine spirit in running these sports. The program this spring has been the most extensive ever offered in the Sparta High School. , Page Eighty THE SPARTAN I J G.A.A.

Lorayne Burlingame and Marion Brom, student leaders, have reported a large turn-out of ninety girls. After a few months practice, teams were chosen. A Basketball tournament was held after school. The freshmen first team played the senior first team and took a defeat. The juniors, champions of last year, played a very close ga.me with the sophomores but finally lost by three points. The seniors then played the sophomores and won another victory. Places were given as fo-llows: seniors, firstg sophomores, secondg juniors. third, and fresh- men fourth. A A very good spirit was shown by all teams participating in the tournament and throughout the practices. Tap Dancing e f The dancing class was organized for the G.A.A. last year under the capable supervision of Miss Levenstein. The girls responded very well and became very enthusiastic about it. Dorthy Owens was chosen student leader for this year. Many dances have been given in and outside of school. The climax of the dancing class was reached when the girls performed at the tournament. Each dance was cleverly and effectively planned. Four dances. The Man on the Flying Trapese, Rope Riddle, Continental, and Jazz Rhythm were given at the tournament. :Other dances given this year are Lindy Lee. Minuet, Parade of W'ooden Soldiers, Clown Dance, Object of My Affection. Russian Dance, and the Skaters Waltz. Florence Burkitt was the accompanist. The new dancing class has proved to be a great credit to the G.A.A. organi- zation. Tumbling Miss Levenstein issued her call for tumbling the first of the year. Jessie La- throp, student leader, showed the girls what was expected of each one. Tumbling was open to all the girls in high school and grades. A large number of girls responded, but due to the short time for practice the team had to be limited in number. Practice was held for three months and then the team was picked. All girls in G.A.A. who ma.de the team received one hundred points. A friend-ly and cooperative spirit prevailed throughout the entire tumbling period. A very sensational program was worked up for the tournament and by popu- lar request the numbers were repeated for the public. M. MCOLIBER, 235. G.A.A.

Page Ninety-one T H E S P A R T A N Essay on Mammals ' Two of the largest species of mammals are the whale and the human being. These are both often referred to as hsh with the slight difference that the human being is a poor hsh. There is a definite type of human being of the males sex that looks like a twin brother to the whale because of his shape. This species hasn't any neck and would be stream-lined if he were to be parallel to the surface of the earth as is the whale. . One difference is that man has a canoe to paddle and the whale hasn't, but the man usually can't paddle his own canoe. Maybe you think another difference is that a wha.le spouts water, and the man doesn't, but have you every seen one of these types of men without a black cigar hanging out of his wide cut mouth? XV hen o11e of them hears something over which he can have a good laugh, his mouth re- minds us again of his relationship to the whale. These two mammals ought to call themselves brothers. The wha.le's tail and man's tale are two diilerent things. The former uses his as a form of locomotion in geniune H,O. The latter floats around by the support of so-me inspiration in the Sea of Imagination which is as vast a place as you want to make it and found in every zone that encircles the earth. Having a more densely populated place to swim in makes the man better known than the whale. A. EMERr', '37.
