Text from Pages 1 - 110 of the 1926 volume:

A-e ' h r V 1 1 a f H :• THE TATTLER : FOREWORD Because of some uncertainty in regard to the Tattler’s accounts, the 1926 Tattler Staff has worked under a great handicap in editing this annual. Although it has been necessary to cut down the number of pages and the number of engravings, we have tried to be impartial in allotting space to the different departments of the school. We greatly ap- preciate the cooperation of everyone in mak- ing this a creditable record of the year 1925- ’26 in St. Anthony High School, and we sin- cerely hope that this book will meet with the approval of our friends. — R. D. F. 1926 [ 2 ] • THE TATTLER r: TO Z. O.

H AVING taught school for some time, I was granted a pension and decided to take an extended trip by aeroplane with a friend. We intended to visit many of the most important cities, St. Anthony being included, and I was desirous of seeing or hearing of some of the Seniors of 1926. We began our journey from the City of New York. The night before we left there, we attended one of the leading theaters and whom do you think we saw as a chorus girl? It was Pearl Jones. We talked to Elda Burrell a few minutes before our departure and we learned that she was the leading dressmaker for the Franklin, Simon Company. The fame of Phyllis Alston as a basketball coach was known throughout the State of Pennsylvania. Our first stop was at Philadelphia and here we learned that Alonzo Meservy had just been elected, by a large majority, for Governor. After talking with Alonzo, we learned .that he and Ella had been happily married for about six years. We journeyed on, but on account of a dense fog, we were obliged to land our plane near a small cottage, out of which rushed some little Foggs and their mother, whom, of course, we recognized as Verona Blake. We were told by Verona that Edla Rice was an old-maidish court reporter of the first rank. We all remember Edla’s ability in shorthand. While spending a few days in Cincinnati, we were visited by Thomas Birch, by profession, a salesman of ladies’ hosiery. Here, we also found Vilas Prater, who was receiving large gains from his ever-paying occupation as a “boot-black.” He attracted throngs of people about him by singing sweet melodious songs. In Nebraska we met up with the most pathetic scene of all. You will all remem- ber well the popular little Kate Buchenau. Here we found her, a widow slaving away her life by taking in washing to support her five hungry children. Of course everyone knew that Franklin Cusick and Corlyn Deatherage were fam- ous throughout the world — Franklin for his noted scientific discoveries in Africa, and Corlyn for having robbed Albert Tangora of his Typewriting Championship. We were told that Jeanette Potter was receiving large returns as a Spanish ; teacher in Africa. While in California, we visited the Stanford University and there found Ralph Fisher, a “bugology” instructor. At Hollywood we heard everyone “raving” about the noted western actor who had just become famous by his daring performances, and upon investigating the matter, we found him to be a 1926 Senior, Frank Fletcher. We were permitted to visit some of the studios and, when we entered one of them, we were very surprised to see Alan Nyborg directing in a dance many beautiful chorus girls who stood smilingly before him. We attended several radio parties and the most interesting account, which was broadcasted to us, was the fact that Ila Horkley, the first lady to attempt such | an undertaking, was preparing to be nominated for the Presidency of the U. S. From this same source we learned of the great debating and fluent speaking ability of Ross Torrey, who is now seated on the bench of the Supreme Court as Chief Justice. We visited many interesting points and made our next stop at Portland, Oregon, where we attended a large circus. Upon entering the main tent, we recognized as “Princess of the Lions,” Edythe Watts, taming the ferocious beasts. Here, too, we 1926 f 18 1 THE TATTLER had the privilege of seeing the famous bearded lady, but of course, we above all others, could easily tell that she was Marion Hammon. We were informed that Elva Primm had become a nun and was devoting her life to the good of others. We were also told that Percy Wilcox was touring the country as a public speaker, choosing for his subject “The Defects of Tobacco” in its many phases. From Oregon we proceeded on our way to Idaho. Here we found many of the 1926 Seniors, especially in and near St. Anthony. W e had the pleasure of meeting Reed Coffin, as well as many of the others. Reed was one of the leading employees in the “Big Window Washing Company” of St. Anthony. Here in the fertile Snake River Valley, we also found James and Elmer Ludlow making a fortune at truck gardening. V e learned from the Ludlows that Burton Stevens and Burt Root were doing fairly well— Burton as the chief plumber, and Burt the outshining blacksmith of the community. While visiting here, we were told that Ross Farnsworth, due to his ability as editor of the Tattler, had become the chief editor of one of the leading 1 papers of Twin Groves. Of course, Twin Groves was no longer a village. Here we entered one of the leading style shops and found the owner to be a very quiet, stately, dignified person and upon looking more closely, we recognized her to be none other than Jennie Meredith. We learned that Lois Neeley had gained a fortune from her famous poetry, pop- ular throughout the world. At Idaho Falls we saw Marie Hobbs and Mary Stanford engaged in the mar- celing business for “Males Only.” In Pocatello, we met Beatrice Hudson, where she had attained the acme of her success as an artist. She was traveling with the “Taylor Players,” putting on their “make-up.” We began our return trip, but, while crossing through Montana, we were forced by a severe storm, to land our machine on the rolling plains. We walked three miles to the nearest house, where we were greeted by the foreman of the cattle ranch, Dean Tracey, and his assistant, Austin Green, both typical western cowboys. After the storm, we proceeded on our way. In Denver we met the well-known social reformer, Gazelle Sorenson, who was speaking against the evils of modern dancing. On the streets of Kansas City, we met the noted Dr. Ard, who is well-known for his skill in dentistry. Wayne told us that Gilman is an Ambassador to Germany. By this time we had had a very enjoyable trip. We had seen some of the 1926 Seniors and had heard of the others. Thus with much satisfaction we returned home to resume our own respective duties, and to dream of the cherished memories of 1926. 1926 r- — — -j [ 19 ] Ei THE TATTLER E Last Will and Testament of the Class of ’26 j W E, the Senior Class of the St. Anthony High School, on departing from it, declare this to be our last will and testament which will be very bene- ficial to those we leave behind. To the St. Anthony High School, the Senior Class of 1926 leaves its sincere desires for the improvement and advancement of the school through the incessant efforts of each member. To the Faculty, we extend our utmost gratitude for the wise instruction and ex- cellent guidance which we have received from them. We leave to the Juniors our ability to win and hold successfully a large majority of the Student Body offices, our athletic ability, and our excellent influence in all of the other activities. I To the Sophomores, we leave cur thanks for the aid which they have given us, and also our desire that they may profit by our many achievements and few failures. To the Freshmen, we will our desire that they may be guided successfully through the four long years of earnest toil. And lastly, the individual members of the class make the following bequests : Phyllis Alston wills her musical talents to Roy Peterson. Make up for lost time, Roy. Ella Andrew leaves her ability as yell leader to Bill Breckenridge. Elda Burrell leaves her ability to give humorous readings to Charles Kennedy. With a gift like this, you should attain success. Thomas Birch wills his studious and quiet disposition to Enid Simpson. Catherine Buchenau wills her stately height to Delta Jorgensen. Jeanette Potter leaves her ever curly hair to Nance Smith. Austin Green wills his broad athletic physique to Bill Ferney. Edla Rice wills her special ability of vamping the men teachers to Ruth Caldwell. Take advantage of your opportunities, Ruth. Vilas Prater leaves his power as a vocal genius, and his ability as business man- ager of the Tattler to Ralph Watson. ! Verona Blake wills her many daily compliments which are showered upon her by James Ludlow, and also her love for a missionary to Lucille Nielson. Ross Torrey wills his ambition as a football player to Howard Johnson. Reed Coffin leaves his oratorical and debating ability to Osborn Ashcraft. Pearl Jones wills her quiet disposition to Blanche Nielson. Burton Stevens leaves his sense of humor and his skill as a drummer in the school orchestra to Dan Cazier. Where there’s a will, there’s a way. To Arthur Kennedy, James Ludlow leaves his ability to give T-L’s to the ladies, and to give complimentary notes to the girls. Ralph Fisher wills his wonderful ability as a football player to Clayton Sorenson. Jennie Meredith leaves her power to freely express herself to Clyde Hunter. To Wayne Davis, Percy Wilcox leaves his extemporaneous speaking ability. Marie Hobbs leaves her good geometry grades and her persistence to Dorothy Duncan. Gazelle Sorensen leaves her melodious voice to Earl Ivastens. Elva Primm leaves her power to shock the vicinity with speedy decisions to Mary Jensen. ! 1926 s [ 20 ] j THE TATTLER Elmer Ludlow transfers his quietness to Alan Rice. Corlyn Deatherag e leaves his ability to acquire a high rate of speed in typing to Myrtle Harder. Burt Root wills his pleasure in reckless car driving to Margaret Harris. Be careful, Margaret. Wayne Ard gives his skill in playing basketball to Floyd Nyborg. Franklin Cusick wills his great height to Elmer Smith. Do you think he used wisdom in this? Ross Farnsworth wills his influence in school activities and his high grades to Verla Adams. Frank Fletcher leaves his willingness to someone who needs it. Ila Horkley leaves her ability as a pantomime artist to Della Stimpson. Beatrice Hudson wills her ability as a cartoonist and painter to Leland Law. Alonzo Meservy leaves part of his height to Leonard Sorenson. Lois Neeley wills her skill in basketball and her ability to make “baskets” to Vivian Birch. Practice makes perfect. Alan Nyborg leaves to Stoney Harris, his ability to say little and do much. Dean Tracey bequeaths his pleasing disposition to Silva Greenhalgh. Mary Stanford wills her alertness and her large vocabulary to Lamona Bur- rell. These gifts will be very useful. Marion Hammon leaves his skill as a coach for Girl’s Basketball to Vernon Powell. Zella Hunter leaves her profound sympathies to the next prophecy and will writer. The Other Fellow Perhaps he sometimes slipped a bit — Well, so have you. Perhaps some things he ought to quit — Well, so should you. Perhaps he may have faltered — why, Why, all men do, and so have J; You must admit, unless you lie, That so have you.

In this land of some- where can be seen the grand Teton Peaks, which stand silhouetted across the wide expanse of sky to the east. These glorious peaks form the footstool for the rising sun. To the west is the lofty and majestic Sawtooth Range, which forms the west- ern boundary of the Snake River Valley. It is now the year 1976 and I am sitting in my easy chair before my fireplace watching the glowing embers and crackling logs. My mind wanders back to this far away land of somewhere and as a single day pictures the most enjoyable four years of my life. To the right of me the sun bursts forth in all its splendor from behind the grand old Tetons glorifying the Snake River Valley. I see the class of 1926 as Freshmen entering the high school which will always be a shrine to us. I can to this day see our faces as we walked into that old assembly. We went in with a smile, ready to meet the hardships of the Freshman year. We had determination and perseverance which most Freshman classes have not. We let nobody run over us. We took our usual medicine smilingly. How we broke into society as Freshmen ! The parties ! Good times! And athletics! How we boys, down on the old “Gym” floor, danced with our girls, tripping along, looking down at our feet at every step we took. I remember how all of us “Freshies” used to blush and stammer when we asked a girl to dance. Algebra and English were easy along side this task. The sun rises a little higher in the east and I see us look down on the green stock this time. How big we felt in doing so! We started out very strong this year and ended the same way, as has always been the case with the class of 1926. One outstanding feature of the year, and it will always stand forth in our memories, is the work of Charlie Bauer, our class advisor, who pulled us up into the front ranks in athletics. We fought hard and our labors were rewarded. We had reach- ed the second rung of the “High School Ladder of Knowledge.” The sun now rises past the zenith and is slowly descending. I see us entering upon our Junior year. We numbered forty-five that year. That was the year that we shone forth in the school like radium. The haughty Seniors were not even our superiors, so we thought. We had picnics, parties and last and by far not least, the Junior Prom, at which even the Seniors stood and wondered, when they first saw the decorations. We were well represented in athletics and debate. No one could excel our boys and girls in athletics and we fought to the last. The sun is now setting in the west and we, the Class of 1926, are going on into the world. We set standards which other classes try to achieve. We gave the best that was in us, but finally had to pass on and do other things. As the darkness comes on, tears come to my eyes, and how I wish I could live even one day of that life over again. — B. S. ’26 1926 r THE TATTLER M Hap ' ■ ' | i Juniors 1926 [ 25 I THE TATTLER Junior Report T ill-: JUNIOR class this year has had a very successful career, and we wish t. . extend our appreciation to our class advisor, Miss Budwin, for the help and direction she has given us. When all the members of our class had come in from the various farms, where i he work during the summer, we decided to make friends with the Seniors and t. give them a picnic. We planned to go down the river and roast “wieners” with all the extras, of course, but it chose to rain, so we retired to the gymnasium and had i picnic supper, after which we indulged in an hour of dancing. Everyone reported a good time. The lucky Juniors who held class offices for the first semester were: Dorothy Duncan - -- -- -- -- - President Elmer Smith ---------- Vice-President Myrtle Harder ------- Secretary-Treasurer After we had collected class dues we found we needed more money for the prom, so we decided to put on three plays under the able leadership of Miss Budwin. So on November 20, we presented “The Pot Boiler,” “The Very Naked Bov,” and “Mr. Bob,” and cleared about $100.00. Our class program came November 27, and was very much enjoyed by the rest of the High School. About a week before the Prom we gave a dance to raise more money. Cf course, the Prom was the biggest social event of the school year. It was held March 19 in Fcgg and Jacobs hall. The ceiling was a mass of wistaria with a green background. The stage was decorated to represent a Chinese pagoda, and each window was decorated to carry out the same idea. Chinese lanterns hung through the wistaria, casting a soft glow over everything. Each orchestra player wore a black Chinese jacket, decorated with a single brilliant yellow dragon. Two little girls, in Chinese costume, entertained the guests by singing and dancing during inter- mission. A charming little Chinese couple served green punch. The punch booth was decorated in green and white, the Seniors’ colors. Everyone pronounced it one of the most beautiful Proms ever held here. In the inter-class Basketball Tournament the Junior team carried the class to victory. The loyal players were Sherman Swensen, Bill Breckenridge, Lawrence Jackson, Louis Housley, Kenneth Parker, Rulon Romrell and Perry Stone. We are very proud of them. The Juniors expect to make a good showing in the track meet as they have some splendid material. The class officers for the second semester were: Dorothy Duncan ---------- President Louise Barber --------- Vice-President Margaret Harris ------- Secretary-Treasurer 1926 Z f 2G J Jazzy Juniors 1926 r 97 1 i THE TATTLER Sophomore ft E5 THE TATTLER Sophomore Report S ATISFIED with the success of the previous year, 50 of us reported back to school for our Sophomore year. During vacation, we had learned that we did not know everything, so we returned to make up our deficiency. We elected the following officers for the first semester: Erma Jergensen - -- -- -- -- - President Henry Ruthardt - -- -- -- - Vice-President William Ferney ----- Secretary and Treasurer Miss Maltman - -- -- -- -- Class Advisor This year our boys took an active part in athletics. Burt Parker and Lloy Prater were on the school football team. Lloy Prater, Garn Tuckett and Burt Parker repre- sented our class in basketball. We gave the Sophomore program, the third in the series, in the assembly. It was highly successful and was enjoyed by all. During Christmas vacation, the weather was so favorable and the snow so in- viting that we went on a skiing party to the Sand Hills. We had lunch and then proceeded to enjoy ourselves on skiis, toboggans and in other ways. Snow-fights also featured in the day’s fun. We returned to our homes late in the afternoon, tired but happy. The officers for the second semester were: Garn Tuckett - -- -- -- -- -- President Lloy Prater - -- -- -- -- - Vice-President Irene Harris ------ Secretary and Treasurer On the 13th of February, we gave the Sophomore party. The gymnasium was gayly decorated in red and white, in honor of St. Valentine. The High School or- chestra furnished excellent music for dancing. The evening was most enjoyable and everyone reported a jolly good time. Our Sophomore boys were beaten by a small margin in the inter-class basketball game, but next year our team will be unsurpassable. Wait and see! At the High School carnival, we Sophomores had a booth, where we sold con- fetti, paper hats, whistles, balloons and other toys. Irene Harris and Lloy Prater were elected to represent the class in the popularity contest. We are coming to the top. Ruth Mason took the leading part in the operetta. Wanda Blanchard, Henry Ruthardt and Vernon Powell also took principal parts. Besides this, many of our class sang in the choruses. Hurrah for the Sophs! — G. C. ’28 1926 [ 30 ] Sullen Sophs 1926 [31 1 r 33 1 Fresh men r — THE TATTLER Freshman Report T HE FRESHMAN class was not hatched, as is usually said; instead, it just sprang up, sort of mushroom-like. Since it came into ex- istence so suddenly, it has maintained similar characteristics and has been the biggest, the brightest, the busiest and the best class in St. Anthony H. S. this year. We started our wonderful and eventful career as Freshmen on Sept. 1, 1925. We thought, when we entered, that we would be greeted with open, out-stretched hands and arms. We were greeted that way but the hands were tightly closed, you know. We couldn’t imagine why they thought so little of us when we thought so much of ourselves, but we learned later and we are still learning. (Who said we were dead?) Mr. Bell was chosen, appointed and drafted as our class advisor. We immediately knew we had the best start of any class since we already had a Bell awarded to us. Well, as most classes do, we began by having a class meeting at which we nominated officers. Had it not been for our advisor insisting that we nominate and proceed in all our meetings according to parliamentary law we perhaps would have had most of the class up for offices, but as it was we had a ballot prepared somewhat smaller than a bed sheet. Our next meeting was held for the purpose of electing officers. Af- ter all the smoke of battle was cleared we found that we had elected Virginia Olsen for president; Ruby Swensen, vice-president; Ruth Rice, secretary; Phyllis Fisher, treasurer; Viola Woody, reporter; and Milton Hansen, yell master. Then we were ready to start on our erratic career. Our ambition was to be .the best class and capture all prizes and honors in every event of the school. This we have done to date and expect to continue to do so throughout our full high school career. (4 to 10 years.) The first two important questions that had to be decided were con- cerning class dues and class colors. The dues were disposed of by es- tablishing a sliding scale, beginning with fifty cents, whereby those who insisted on being late in paying had the privilege of enriching the treas- ury to a greater extent. The class colors, crimson and gray, were de- cided upon after all other possible combinations of colors had been re- jected. All classes are jealous of our beautiful colors, too, a fact which accounts for their insisting on relegating them to some inferior, unseen, non-conspicuous, unimposing place. In order to give vent to some enthusiasm, of which our class has too much, except, perhaps, in our lessons, we arranged a class program which was given to the entire high school and department. In this program we displayed our ability as no class had yet done. (This was the first program.) Our football team, which provided another method of dispos- ing of enthusiasm, was a regular steam roller. We flattened out every team with which we played but due to the fact that we could not get games with the suburbs of St. Anthon} we didn’t play many. A few weeks after the close of football season our enthusiasm again 1926 [ 34 ] - T-A - THE TATTLER E began to show signs of eruption ; also our treasury was full to over- flowing, so, in order to prevent a catastrophe, another class meeting was called to decide what to do. Excitement ran high when a dancing party was suggested, but it ran highest when it was suggested that we go to the Sand Hills on a skiing party. The date — January 9; the place of meeting — school house; the lunch — hot dogs, coffee, pickles, oranges and candy. Since no one was hungry, we delayed eating until almost eleven o’clock A. M. Thirty-six of us went and at a conservative estimate there were 36,000 spills, not taking into consideration the little flops that were so common. The next wonderful event was our class program, again given to the high school and department. The Metropolitan Squawks, Prater, Hib- bart, Bailey and Bell, squawked for the crowd. They told them of the animal fair, which was killing. Darlene Bell related how she had killed a Big Black Bear — no, Two Big Black Bears. Edward Sandrock spoke to the audience with his violin and Earl Kastens and Don Harris made the vaudeville hit of the season in their oration “Why Niggahs Am Black.” Ruby Swensen, Silva Greenhalgh, Edward Sandrock and Clyde Hunter played a tennis game in song, also did some fancy skating in the same manner. It was the best class program given this school year, if you take our word for it as well as that of the Student Body. Just think how the time flew! We had to hold another election. This time we elected Phyllis Fisher, president; Ruby Swensen, vice-president; Leola Stringer, secretary ; Silva Greenhalgh, treasurer ; Harold Woody, reporter; and Winona Ard, yell leader. We regret to say that some members of our class had been out of gear a part of the time or perhaps had slipped cogs, so as a result had to return to their Alma Mater, the Department. Others have been in low thus far with but little gas, so are just about standing still, but are planning on taking six or seven years to complete high school and there- fore, are not worrying. Still others are in intermediate and high, which represents the majority of the class, so altogether, we are, as we former- ly said, the best class in school. Our girls’ basketball team ! Well you should see them in action. Phyl- lis Tuckett, Phyllis Fisher, Afton Peterson, Winona Ard, Velma Cherry, Edna Stinemates, and Viola Woody are the members of the team. Ask the Senior girls what the Freshmen girls can do, but be at a safe dis- tance when you ask them. The climax of our social activities was reached when we gave our party for the high school. We outdid anything that had been done this year ; our stunts, contests, dancing, music, eats and atmosphere in gen- eral were so pleasant that to enjoy them one needed but to be there. Our sojourn through this Freshman year has been so pleasant, so profit- able and so interesting that some of us expect to repeat it, but most of us intend to do as others do and be Sophomores next year. — R. R. B. 1926 — . il 135 ] r r - THE TATTLER General Activities A T THE beginning of each school year, there are always many new faces. These strangers, including Freshmen, do not exactly feel at home, so it was only natural that there should be a “Get-Ac- quainted” party, for such occasions help make new acquaintances, as well as renew old ones. The party was given during the last week of September and the dancing was enjoyed by all those present. A lone Freshman squeezed his pretty red face into the crowd here and there, and a few Sophs did the same, with slightly more grace. The Juniors and Seniors had a wonderful time and greatly enjoyed the evening. In November, the Student Body gave a Masquerade Ball. Everyone was busy days and days before, trying to find a costume. There were some clever ones, too, but Huckleberry Finn, impersonated by Jennie Meredith in faded overalls, ragged shirt and with fish pole, corn cob pipe, torn straw hat and freckles, seemed to overshadow the rest, so she got the chocolates. On November 23 at the Gray Opera House, the Juniors gave three short plays — “The Pot Boiler,” “The Very Naked Boy,” and “Mr. Bob.” Those who took part in “The Pot Boiler” were Elmer Smith, Julian Hib- bert, Louis Kousely, Dorothy Duncan and Lucille Nielson. The story of the “Pot Boiler” was of a play-writer in his studio. He was very radical and slow. His actors grew nervous at the delay and the play ended with everyone thoroughly resolved to “shoot the Boss.” The next one, “The Very Naked Boy,” was about a girl of sweet six- teen who, with her Romeo, had rushed to an alcove. Her brother was stubborn, as most boys are, and his sister’s modesty was saved by the quickness of the Romeo, who threw a scarf around the shirtless boy. The cast was: Nance Smith, the sister; Ovid Bailey, the Romeo; and Floyd Nyborg, the brother. “Mr. Bob” was a story of school days. Phillip lived with his aunt and cousin. His famous yacht was to run in a race, but due to business in a city, he was unable to run it. He had heard his cousin tell of the arrival of Bob, and, supposing Bob to be a man, he decorated the guest- room in pipes, guns, etc. While he was in the city his yacht was run and it won the race. Mr. Bob piloted the boat to victory. Mr. Bob turn- ed out later to be Phillip’s girl friend whom he had met at college. Those who played in “Mr. Bob” were : Margaret Patton, Sherman Swensen, Burton Stevens, Enid Simpson and Margaret Harris. February 13 the Sophomores entertained the High School at their annual party. The gym was decorated in red and white, symbolic of St. Valentine’s Day. Punch and wafers were served from a booth while the High School orchestra furnished dance music. Many of the parents showed their interest in school by attending the affair. Everyone par- ticipated in the fun and many of the upper classmen pronounced it an unusual success. 1926 k [ 38 ] THE TATTLER Tattler Staff plays have always been successful, and this year’s play certainly measured up to any others. “The Full House” was clever in itself, but when made real by acquaintances, it was great! Those taking part were : Percy Wilcox - -- -- -- -- -- Mr. Howell Beatrice Hudson - - - _____ Mrs. Howell Burton Stevens ------ Mr. King, the Burglar Helen Jacobs - -- -- -- - - Mrs. Pembroke Margaret Patton - -- -- -- -- -- Daphne Ross Farnsworth - -- -- -- -- -- Parks Reed Coffin ------ Daugherty , Police Sergeant Verona Blake - -- -- -- -- -- Aunty Marion H ammon --------- Ned Pembroke Edla Rice - -- -- -- -- -- -- Susy James Ludlow - -- -- -- -- -- - Mooney Garn Tuckett - -- -- -- -- -- Clancy Helen Farnsworth -------- Vera Vernon Ella Andrew - -- -- -- -- Mrs. Fleming Mr. and Mrs. Howell were newly-weds, and it happened that Mr. Howell had to leave on “business” the day after the wedding. Mrs. Howell’s aunt and her daughter, Daphne, come to see the couple a day or so later and upon arriving, are alarmed at the disappearance of the husband. Her nervousness is greatly increased by the newspaper report of the loss of the valuable Pembroke jewels and they immediately con- nect the trip of Mr. Howell ' s with the loss of the jewels. Howell is really in the city getting the love letters of Ned Pembroke from Vera Vernon, a chorus girl. However, after a great many amusing complica- tions and situations, everything is satisfactorily explained and all ends happily. Edla Rice and Burton Stevens were the hit of the show. The play was given at St. Anthony, Edmonds, Teton and Parker, and we realized good financial returns from it. On March 19 the Junior Prom was held in Fogg and Jacobs Hall, which represented a Japanese Garden with wistaria hanging from a background of green. Those in the orchestra wore black Japanese jack- ets with yellow dragons on them. Unique dance programs were souve- nirs of the occasion and dancing was enjoyed through most of the even- ing. Two little Japanese girls danced and sang during intermission. Refreshments were served from a booth by a Japanese boy and girl. Of course, the Prom was the big social event of the year. The Carnival on March 26 was instituted to secure funds to pay off the debts incumbent upon the school. In as much as each of the classes and affiliated organizations were interested, each consented to take the responsibilities of at least one booth upon itself. A short play in the assembly early in the evening, was a source of much fun. Verona Blake and Burton Stevens won in the school popularity contest held during the carnival. A jitney dance furnished entertainment in the gym, while the booths added to the merry-making. “Pickles,” the operetta presented by the Glee Clubs of the school, was given in the Gray Opera House, April 13. The story was of an English lady whose daughter had been lost in Vienna at carnival time. When she arrived in Vienna she met her old friend, Mr. Pennington, famous for his pickles, and also Mr. Jones, Pennington’s advertising manager. Jones met and fell in love with a gypsy maid, despite the protests of 1926 [ 39 ] THE TATTLER - her supposed father, while Pennington continued his pursuit of Lady Vivian. The gypsy girl finally turned out to be Lady Vivian’s daugh- ter Many choruses and dances were featured in the play. Bumski and Rumski. police aides to Captain Kinski, were indeed full of fun and jokes. Although this year’s operetta lacked some of the soloists of years past, it was good and the public showed its appreciation by turning out en masse. The cast was: Burton Stevens - - - Mr. Jones , Advertising Expert Ruth Mason ------- Ilona, the Gypsy Maid Wanda Blanchard - - Lady Vivian , An English Lady Floyd Davis - Mr. Pennington, Manufacturer Ovid Bailey ------- Mr. Crefont, An Artist Gazelle Sorenson - - ----- - Miss Pennington Henry Ruthardt - - - - Captain Kinski, Detective Vernon Powell - -- -- -- - Bumski, Assistant Reed Coffin - -- -- -- -- Rumski, Assistant — E.

In the next meeting there were 13. Of all these 14 were accepted and received into the club. The new members were put through a peppy initiation, a truly gruesome experience for them, after which we pro- ceeded to the cafe where refreshments were served. At the next meeting Mrs. Dailey, Mrs. Stevens, Mrs. Harris, Mrs. Winegardner and Mrs. Stanwood were elected sponsors for the year. Several plays were reviewed by members of the club and at one meet- ing short talks on our club and others of its kind were given by Helen Farnsworth, Ila Horkley, Phyllis Alston and Vilas Prater. The officers elected for the second semester were as follows : Reed Coffin - -- -- -- -- -- - President Verona Blake - -- -- -- -- Vice-President Burton Stevens ----- Secretary and Treasurer Edla Rice - -- -- -- -- -- -- Reporter A sketch of the life and work of Stuart Walker was given by Beatrice Hudson. This was followed by the presentation of his play “Neverthe- less, ” with the following cast : Reed Coffin ---------- A Burglar Ruth Rice - -- -- -- -- -- - The Girl Leonard Sorenson --------- The Boy The last of April, under the direction of Verona Blake, the one-act play, “Never Again ’ was presented in the assembly by: Edla Rice, Phyl- lis Alston, Vilas Prater and Reed Coffin. This concluded our work for the year. — H. F. ’28 i 1926 [ 43 ] Glee Clubs I r THE TATTLER MUSIC T HE GLEE Clubs were composed almost entirely of new voices this year. This accounts for the apparent inactivity of the clubs ; but j in reality no classes have worked harder. Intensive training oc- cupied most of the time of both teacher and pupils. This practicing left practically no time for public performance outside the operetta. The operetta, however, was splendid. This was presented by entirely new voices with the exception of Gazelle Sorenson and Ovid Bailey, who very effectively portrayed the artist and his American sweetheart. Burton Stevens, as the advertising expert for Peter Piper Pickles, showed a hitherto unsuspected talent for singing. His acting, of course, brought !l down the house. Ruth Mason gave evidence not only of a splendid voice, but of a decided aptitude for dancing. We predict she will go far. Wan- da Blanchard, another new one, showed skill in handling both her voice and her actions. Floyd Davis very successfully portrayed the business man who was not too tired to woo and win Wanda as Lady. Vivian. Rumski and Bumski, Vernon Powell and Reed Coffin, respectively, made the audience laugh every time they appeared. As comedians they were excellent. Hans, portrayed by Martell Halgren, gave a chance for Mar- tell to show his splendid voice. Louisa (Edla Rice) — but nothing need be said about Edla. Her acting is famous already. Henry Ruthardt, as Ferri Kinski, gave an excellent interpretation of a Hungarian villain. He not only acted the part but looked it as well. Jigo, the gypsy chief, was played by Julian Hibbert. Julian’s acting is only surpassed by his glorious voice. The choruses were very good. Phyllis Alston, who has sung in the other operettas, accompanied this one. Music for the Baccalaureate and Commencement exercises is furnish- ed by the Glee Clubs. The orchestra has done splendid jazz playing this year. They have played for the school dances, and between the acts of the various school plays. The dance orchestra i s composed of : Vilas Prater, saxophone ; Corlyn D., saxophone; Floyd D., trombone; Opal Staker, banjo; Edward S., violin; Burton S., drums; Phyllis A., piano. With practice this or- chestra could go far, but all except Edward Floyd and Opal graduate this vear. i . — P. A. ’26 19 26 — ... -- l ij r 45 1 THE TATTLER Debate D EBATING has just concluded a very successful year. Although a larger number of judges might have been desired, a better school spirit and greater interest could not be expected. The Debating Club was organized early in the year and it was encouraging to note that girls were beginning to take an active interest in such activities. Under the interesting leadership of Mr. Nelson, the club grew rapidly and soon the classes caught some of the contagion. The first debate was an inter-class affair between the Juniors and Seniors. The Seniors won but it was only because of previous experi- ence, not ability. In this debate Elmer Smith made his debut as an ora- tor. Elmer was a “find’’ for any club but thought he should give more study to the question before trying out for a place on the school team. When the tryouts for the school teams were held, a very acute attack of stage fright assailed the amateurs but a team was built up around the three veterans, Corlyn Deatherage, Reed Coffin and Burt Root. Before the time for the Rexburg debate, Mr. Nelson had to leave us and this left us for the second consecutive year without a coach. With such a blow it was not expected that we would show up very well, but, contrary to expectations, St. Anthony got an even break. The decision was 2 t o 1 in both cases, with the negative winning the decisions. Rex- burg, in the past has been our strongest opponent so we felt confident of victory with Idaho Falls. The Freshmen and Sophomores began con- testing vigorously for places on the team. A Freshman, Clyde Hunter, a new Senior debater, Elda Burrell, and Elmer Smith received berths for this contest. With such excellent new material, a victory was ex- pected in the coming I. F. debate. But again predictions were contra- dicted — we lost both decisions. The affirmative team with two new mem- bers got the one vote, which goes to show the type of team St. Anthony will develop next year. Clyde Hunter did remarkably well and Elmer maintained his usual high standard. Elda also did splendidly but now that the season is over, it is the lower classmen who are the centers of attraction for they will carry on this work and we will expect them to get at least State Championship. The debate with Blackfoot was scheduled to be lost, as Blackfoot had given Twin Falls the first defeat in 12 years and had treated other schools in a similar manner. Too, Elmer came down with the mumps the day before the debate and some substitute had to be found to read his care- fully prepared speech. This time the affirmatives won with a 2 to 1 vote in each case. Buzz not only read Elmer’s speech but gave one of the best rebuttals of the season and Garn Tuckett’s performance gave prom- ise of a future State Champion. The one main weakness of St. A. lay in the main speeches, not the rebuttals. With a little work and a few more men like Clyde, Garn and Elmer, St. A. will once more possess the State title. — R. C. ’26 1926 £ 2 THE TATTLER [ 47 ] Debating Club ----- THE TATTLER - — Commercial Report | T HE Commercial Department of our school has had an unusually successful year under the supervision of Miss Cooper. This department is the most im- portant department in school and the most convenient one for the teachers and pupils. We have made many copies for the different teachers. In the fall we did quite a lot of mimeographic work in cooperation with the Physical Education De- partment. Programs for the different plays were mimeographed in the Commercial Department. 1 Classes are taught in Shorthand I and II, Typing I and II, and Bookkeeping by Miss Cooper, and Mr. Bell teaches Rapid Calculation. Many good records have been made in these classes, in fact, they have exceeded previous years. Last fall the Typ- ing II class sent in 0. A. T. papers, of which 11 qualified. The bronze medal for the best one was awarded to Hazel Jacobs. In December Miss Cooper and Margaret Patton took the Remington Portable test but did not pass it. In the May test Ken- neth Parker and Corlyn Deatherage are also eligible. In Typing II three students, Margaret Patton, Kenneth Parker and Corlyn Death- erage have won the Remington gold pin at 55 words per minute. Margaret Patton and Corlyn Deatherage have won the Smith gold pin for 60 words per minute. Cor- lyn Deatherage has won the Royal 60 card case at a rate of 66 words per minute for 15 minutes with but two errors. He wrote 330 perfect strokes per minute. The total number of words written was 1010 and 1008 of them were perfect making an accuracy rate of 99.7%. We have had the Royal typewriter a little over a year and several good records have been made on it. The Royal Company gives its awards solely on accuracy. Margaret Patton, Kenneth Parker and Corlyn Deatherage have won the 50 silver pin on the Underwood. Mary Stanford and Burt Root have won the Smith silver pin for 50 words per minute. The above rates were all written for 15 minutes. In the 10 minute Competent Typist tests, three students, Margaret Patton, Kenneth Parker and Corlyn Deatherage won the pin by writing at a rate of 73 words per minute. Kenneth Parker wrote at a rate of 365 strokes per minute for ten minutes without an error, this being the second perfect paper he has written this year. Zella Hunter, Mary Stanford, Margaret Harris, Dean Tracey, Perry Stone, Elva Primm, Burt Root and Hazel Jacobs hold the C. T. certificate for 50 words per minute. The Typing II class has an enrollment of 15, of which 3 have won a 70-word award, and 8 who have made one or more 50-word awards. In Shorthand I, Corlyn Deatherage won the 60-word certificate from the Gregg Publishing Co. on the April test material. In Shorthand II, Zella Hunter, Edla Rice, Verona Blake, Ila ITorkley and Mary Stanford won the 80-word certificate on the April test material. ' 1 he Bookkeeping class has been taking tests sent out by the South-Western Pub- lishing Co. and each time Alan Nyborg ranked the highest. With all these good records it was very hard for Miss Cooper to decide who was to go to the district contest at Pocatello. She finally gave tests to see who should go, and Corlyn Deatherage and Margaret Patton won in (Shorthand I and Typ- ing II, Edla Rice in Shorthand II, Alan Nyborg in Bookkeeping and Ross Farnsworth THE TATTLER in Rapid Calculation. They went to Pocatello and competed with 12 schools from this part of the state. The results of the contest were very satisfactory as we won two firsts and one third place. Margaret Patton won first place in Shorthand I, handing in a perfect transcript; Ross Farnsworth won first in Rapid Calculation, and Corlyn Deatherage won third in Typing II. The results of the contest at Pocatello are as follows : Type I — Pocatello, first; Idaho Falls, second; Rigby, third. Type II — Preston, first; Pocatello, second; St. Anthony, third. Shorthand I — St. Anthony, first; Pocatello, second; Pocatello, third. Shorthand II — Idaho Falls, first; American Falls, second; Idaho Falls, third. Bookkeeping — Preston, first; Pocatello, second; Preston, third. Rapid Calculation — St. Anthony, first; Pocatello, second; Rigby, third. Pocatello won the trophy cup with 18 points. St. Anthony and Preston tied for second with 11 points and Idaho Falls took fourth with 9 points. In the last 5 years we have won three gold medals in Rapid Calculation, two in Shorthand I, and one in the rest with the exception of Type I, in which we have never been able to win a first. We plan to take Our team to Boise on May 8 to the state contest where we be- lieve they will make a good showing. Parke Soule, while not a student in the school, won the Underwood pearl pin for 70 words per minute. Altogether the results in Commercial work have been very successful, not only in the contest at Pocatello, but also in making records on the different typewriters. -C.

Y. U. and the boys were highly elated at the prospects of having another good coach to succeed Mr. Ellis. While waiting for the boys to come down from the farms, Coach Neilson went ahead and did the best he could with the available material. There were some vet- erans already here so he put them in their old places and proceeded to drill green material into the other positions. Y. Prater, R. Torrey, G. Fletcher and R. Farns- worth held their old positions of left end, left guard, right guard and center, respec- tively. R. Fisher was shifted from right end to the backfield because of his running, passing and dodging ability. Then L. Prater, W. Ferney, M. Orlob, B. Parker, B. Stevens and R. Peterson were worked into positions as right end, half-back, half- back, quarter-back and full-back, respectively. All of the fellows in the back field were new to their places and most of them were new to football. So when the Idaho Falls game came, the first of the season, they were not ready and failed to give the necessary support to the line. Fisher as full- back worked his hardest but was finally taken out on account of injuries. After he left, the backfield went to pieces and Idaho Falls made forward passes good for touchdown after touchdown. First down was never made through our line and very seldom was made around an end. Right after this game, the boys from the farms came down and several posi- tions were changed. B. Breckenridge went to right tackle; 0. Bailey went to full- back; Rulen Romrell went to half-back until he received a broken shoulder. Perry Stone then took his place. With this new line-up, prospects began to look brighter. Through all of the games, the line was a real stonewall and towards the last of the season, the backfield reached the standards set by the line. Good teamwork was particularly, noticeable at the end of the season and we feel satisfied. Our aver- age was .625. October 2, we met Idaho Falls here. Inexperience caused the loss of the game by a bad score. The line with the assistance of Fisher to back it up, was the out- standing feature of the game. Score, 69 to 0. On October 9, we went to Driggs. Early in the game, they made a touchdown on a forward pass and one on a fumble. We then pounded our way through for a touchdown and were three yards from another when a fumble caused the loss of the ball and the game. Bailey and Fisher featured in this game. Score, 12 to 6. We next met Driggs here on Oct. 16. Our team by then had learned how to stop forward passes and how to make them ourselves. The game was fast but Driggs was outclassed. The team with a few exceptions performed like a clock. Score, 20 to 0. We went to Firth and met the much touted state champions on October 23. The first few minutes of play were all for us and we made gain after gain through their line. But luck changed and when they got the ball, their team — Jensen — made several long runs for scores. Score, 34 to 0. 1926 [54] :r — THE TATTLER ”---=--- Jk ± r ---- — We went to Ashton on October 30, and showed them how to play. Features of this game were a 75-yard run for touchdown and several 60- and 70-yard runs of gains, all made by Fisher. Score, 26 to 0. On Armistice Day, Shelley came here and met defeat in the fastest game of the season. Fisher and Bailey, as well as the whole team, performed brilliantly. Score, 18 to 0. Thanksgiving Day Ashton met us here. The field was a mass of ice-water, snow and mud. Here was where a good, steady playing counted and since our passing and running game was hindered, as well as our punting, we made only three touch- downs. Ashton gained 12 points on fumbles. Score, 18 to 12. L. Prater — R. E., First Year. Steady, dependable and very promising for his next | two years. B. Breckenridge — R. T., Third Year. A mountain of strength. Bill was certainly J a power on the line. V. Prater — E. E., Second Year. Opponents tried his end only once or twice. Nailed them in their tracks. G. Fletcher — R. G., Second Year. Although he was not flashy, he was consistent and always ready. R. Farnsworth — (Captain) Center, Third Yea) ' . The “Butch Knowles” of our team. Made life miserable for opposition. B. Stevens — Q.

Always willing and ready. A. Meservy — R. T. and E., First Year. Able to cover a lot of territory. L. Richman — Sub Q. B. Inexperienced but clever and a good general. L. Sorenson, A. Rice — Always eager to help and learn. They are to be commended for their faithful and regular attendance at practice.

Not a letter man came back to play. Our coach, Ross Neilson, called for all boys wishing to play. Out of the 30 candidates, 15 were chosen to carry on the work of the year. Most of us had never been in a suit and probably that accounts for the coach’s discouragement. He started using a Utah system for the offense and defense. After two weeks of hard practice, we played Madison High and were defeated by a score of 24 to 15. This was not bad considering our lack of experience. Also Madison had won the championship the year before and most J of her men were back. We arranged a game with Edmonds and were defeated by a score of 28 to 27 because of a foul shot made by Edmonds in the last three or four seconds. These two games were non-league games, played for practice. The first game in our leag ' ue was with Sugar City. They walked over us with a score of 40 to 5. Our only alibi for this is that they are the district champions J with an average of 1000 per cent. After the Christmas and New Year holidays we played Victor. They beat us 24 to 8. The next week we were hosts to the Ashton team. We had beaten them in football and so we had to beat them in basketball. We defeated them by a score of 29 to 15. They had beaten us the year before so natur- ally we celebrated. Two days before our trip to Victor and Driggs, our old coach quit and a new one, Shields, from Oregon, came to carry on the work. We changed our forma- tions and plays in one day and then played Driggs and Victor. Driggs beat us 30 to 3. Victor beat us 22 to 17. All the Victor fans were having nervous chills be- cause in the last few minutes of play, we ran up the score from 5 to 17. About this time the influnenza broke out. We played Driggs again and this time we beat them. The score was 27 to 22. The next game we played was with Teton. We easily de- feated them although we were out of condition. We next beat the alumni in a prac- tice game. We took another post from under Ashton by running up a score of 37 to 19. The next week we played Sugar City again. They did not outplay us, as the score seems to indicate. We had the ball as much as they did but our boys could not score. The game was fast and rough. They beat us 32 to 12. This game J finished the season of league games. We played Ashton again to settle a dispute over referees. They came down de- termined to win, and for a while it looked as if they would do it, but our team spurt- ed up in the last few minutes and beat them 37 to 30. We played Edmonds twice more and defeated them both times. We played 15 games this season and won eight out of the 15. By this time we were willing to put up the old basketball and don our track suits. Taken as a whole, the season was a success and the team was a surprise. Every- body on the squad feels well repaid for time spent in practice as it affords valuable J experience. The line-up is as follows : Burton Stevens, Captain — Burt plays a fast, heady game. A sure-shot for baskets. Wayne Ard, Center — Wayne is always ready to shoot baskets when everyone else is failing. Percy Wilcox, Forward — Buzz played fast basketball this year. He will be missed next year. I 1926 [57 1 3 THE TATTLER i Burt Parker, Guard — Could be depended upon to break up the opponents’ offensive. Corlyn Pinkney Deatherage, Guard— Cork followed up fast and always guarded well. Vilas Prater, Center— First year and considering his inexperience he certainly show- ed marked ability. Never a slacker. Ross Farnsworth, Guard — Ross was a strong guard on the team. He repeatedly broke up the opponents’ teamwork. Ploy Prater, Forward — Lloy did good work this year and promises to be a flashy player next year. Garn Tuckett, Forward — Tuck will be expected to hold a position on the first team next year. Alonzo Meseryy, Center — Lon surprised everyone this ye ar. His picture is not on the page. Kenneth Parker, Forward — Kenneth played good basketball, scoring consistently. Several boys practiced with the team, and though they did not make this year’s team, will make a showing next year. They are: Perry Stone, guard; Doyle Davis, guard; and Don Harris, center.

It was rather hard to get any of us to come out at first, but later on we be- came interested in it and turned out well for practice. We practiced every evening and were soon able to play an interesting game Our first match game was held on January 26 at St. Anthony with Annis. This was an easy game and St. Anthony won. The score was 52 to 13. When Idaho Falls started out this year they resolved to have the state championship. We played them at Idaho Falls on February 5. We were defeated by a big score : 13 to 44. Ashton came next and we scored another victory for St. Anthony. The score was 23 to 10. The game of the season was the one played here with Idaho Falls. The girls felt that we had a chance to win. In the first half the score was close to a tie but in the last half they scored a number of points more than we did. The result was that they again won by a score of 15 to 27. The next game was with Edmonds. They had never played before, so they were inexperienced. St. Anthony won with a score of 26 to 0. When the game scheduled with Ashton at Ashton was played St. An- thony was defeated, 24 to 7. Our last league game was at Annis on the twelfth of March. We went down in cars and after getting stuck in the mud and hav- ing numerous other troubles, we arrived ab out an hour late. We won the game regardless of our hard luck. The score was 30 to 19. Another game that should be mentioned was one between the Fresh- men and Seniors. This was a close match. The Freshmen won with the score of 23 to 24.

Due to other activities, however, only a few men were able to report regularly. Several fellows were able to come out irregularly, though. The dates of various track meets became known and it was found that we would have to have our Inter-Class Meet on April 21, in order that we might send a team to Sugar City to the District Meet on May 1. School was dismissed for the afternoon of the twenty-first, and the first events started at 2:39. The dope picked Fisher as high point man, with Romrell and Tracey following. The dope was entirely upset, however, and a “dark horse” — Burt Parker — won the gold medal. Burt was the sensation of the day. He captured six firsts, one second, and one third. His total was 34% points. Fisher got the silver medal with four firsts and one second, in addition to being on the winning relay. His total was 24% points. James Ludlow won the bronze medal with two firsts, one sec- ond and one third, plus 1% on the winning relay team. The Seniors won the meet with 93 points to the Junior’s 50, the Sophomore’s 17 and the Freshmen’s 37. Winona Ard got the girls’ gold medal with 20% points. Irene got the silver medal with 12 points and Hazel Jacobs won third with 11% points. RESULTS: Boys’ 50-Yd. Dash — Fisher, Deatherage, B. Parker Girls’ 50-Yd.

But they explained that they had had a good time in the Salmon River country on a deer hunt. Lloy and Vilas got the two deer. Lloy’s was the largest ever taken out of that country. 30 — The football team goes to Ashton. We won again. NOVEMBER 11 — Armistice Day program. One of the most interesting speakers in St. Anthony is on our Faculty, Mr. Nelson. The program was given by members of our Fac- ulty, the Department, and one member of the High School. The program was one of the most interesting held in St. Anthony. We had many visitors from town. In the afternoon we played football with Shelley, here. ‘‘Come on, St. A., you’ve got a winning team.” 14 — Vilas and Ralph get a shave today. We were wondering when it was coming. Boys, don’t get that way again. When you haven’t got 25 cents, call on the High School. 16 — -Education Week. We have something along the line of education for a change. 18 — Mr. Neilson turns out to be a pugilist. Leland, pick on someone your own size. 23 — Woe to us — Exam week!

The Sophomores found someone that knows more than they. 24 — Mr. Bell tells a secret on Vilas and Phyllis. We always thought it but didn’t dare say. 26 — Thanksgiving. Thankful we don’t have to go to school. We play Ashton here on a field of ice water and snow. We win. 30 — Only a third of the school here. They were warned not to eat too much. 1926 [ 62 ] THE TATTLER 5 ! DECEMBER « 1 — Hear rumors that Mr. Neilson changes his attitude toward women and has taken unto himself a wife. 2 — Sh! Don’t talk in little groups about professor’s grading. Just like postum, there’s a reason. 3 — There’s a mad rush for the Post Office. Report cards are being sent home. Not that they thought we didn’t take them home, but just to save us the trouble of packing them. 11 — Country Gentleman Campaign.

Why, Ross? 17 — Freshies play basketball with Department. Freshies’ favor. Sophs and Fresh- ies play. Sophs victorious. 18 — Mr. Axford fell and hurt himself while helping the Department.

We wonder what can be the matter. 22 — Mr. Axford is back. 23 — Extemporaneous program. Mr. Neilson took charge. Many interesting ora- tions and addresses were given, as well as musical ability shown. Martell, what do you mean you never believed in evolution until you saw Mr. Neilson? Debate between Juniors and Seniors. Seniors’ favor. Hurrah! Out for a week of Christmas pleasure. i ! JANUARY i 4 — School begins after Christmas vacation. Everyone dead. Elva gets married. As ' Student Body president, she sets a good example. 7 — Neilson leaves us. Everyone has a lolly-pop and some peanuts because of the party in History. 8 — Nelson leaves us. Another party.

We win. 20 — Andrus can’t defeat Shields in basketball — but that isn’t love. 22 — Washington’s birthday. Everyone goes to the Dogs. 23 — Exam week. Wars raging in play practice. We wonder if Burton will ever speak to us again? We hope so, Burton. 24 — Teddy and Verona take a vaction. Don’t seem to think they have to go to school when there are no exams.

It is the first game we’ve lost since being under Shield’s coach- ing. MARCH 3 — Center comes up here to play basketball. They need more practice because we beat them good. 5 — St. Anthony plays Ashton and wins again. Rah! Rah! 10 — Seniors are called in room 12 for about one hour. After a discussion they are told that the Prom is none of their business. They’re mere guests. 11 — Burton isn’t peeved anymore. 12 — The boys go to Center and win. There’s a dance afterwards. We surely had a good time. Burton, we’d like as little of that dancing as possible. 15 — “The Full House” goes to Edmonds. The cast gets out of school all afternoon, and also, the Freshies don’t have to go to classes. Miss Budwin sure has a swell lunch for us. Fifteen ’rahs for Budwin! 16 — “The Full House” is given at home. Absolutely the best show of the season. Everyone says so, and they know. We always believed Teddy “Didn’t know nothin’,” and at last we’ve heard her admit it. Jim turned out to be a real scream. 17 — Juniors have to get up at 6:30 to decorate for the Prom. It surely ought to be swell. 18 — The Prom at last, the gala event of the whole season. Gee, it was swell. Every- one had the time of their lives. Hurrah for the Juniors. 20 — “The Full House” goes to Teton. Everyone was doing their worst, but they ' ll ' live. 21 — Spring has ca me. Oh, how wonderful. Tonight I am going to review my sup- pressed desire. 23 — “The Full House” goes to Parker. 24 — Mr. Bell is worrying the whole Senior Class because we want to know who is eligible for the play. Few are eligible. 25 — What is everyone, especially Miss Budwin, looking so down at the mouth about? Why! Mr. Shields left us today. Gee, we hated to see him go, for he certainly was a good sport. The track fellows will miss him more than anyone. Mr. Moore came today, but we’ll say how we like him after exam. L — 1926 £ THE TATTLER 26 — Annual Carnival. There was surely a swell crowd, time and everything. 27 — Declamatory Contest. Those that missed it, missed something good. 29 — Mr. Winegardner says, ‘“If those people who glommed all of the stuff after the carnival are through with it now, we’d like you to bring it back.” APRIL 1 — We April-fooled the teachers by being good for a change. We also fooled the Juniors, who thought that we would have Senior Sneak Day then. 2 — Operetta practice in full swing. 6 — Debate, argument and wrangling with Blackfoot. We’re victorious here and they win there. Reed, Corlyn and Clyde must not have talked much because they all came home. You see, they went to Blackfoot. 7 — Exam week. Wars! Wars! Wars! 12 — Wars raging in American Government. Ross, keep your seat and your temper. You’ve got more to learn about currency. 13 — It came at last and we all went to see it. It was good. What? Why! “Pickles.” 16 — Juniors sneaking around trying to find out when the Seniors sneak. 19 — Vilas and Ross working their heads off trying to get the Tattler to Caxtons. Mr. Davis talks to us about his trips around the world. We’re all going. No, to hear Thomas Elmore Lucy. 20 — Wrestling matches between Juniors, Sophs and Seniors to see who is going to have their pennant on the flagpole. Seniors win. 21 — Inter-class track meet. Burt Parker was high-point man. He is becoming a real athlete. Winona Ard was the high-point girl. But even then the Seniors won the meet. Ralph Fisher and James Ludlow got the silver and bronze medals. Gang fight at the school house. 22 — Black eyes, bruised faces and stiff limbs are the results of the fight last night. Evidently the Seniors-Sophs won from the looks of the big 26-28 on the building. The next morning the Juniors put up a big 27-29 on the stage. A grand gang fight resulted. Our visitor from Ogden said we had lots of pep. We have. The Commercial contestants — Marjorie, Corlyn, Ross, Teddy and Alan — accompanied by Miss Cooper went to Pocatello. 23 — Dean French was here from Moscow. She is a wonderful woman and we are all going to Moscow next year. Reconciliation between the classes. We all love each other again. The pennants were returned to the respective class presidents before the assembly. We all agreed it has been a week of fun, but we are glad it is over for the boys were beginning to look bad. 24 — We were a success at Pocatello. Miss Cooper took five students and three of them placed. Margaret and Ross took first places in Shorthand and Rapid Calcula- tion. Margaret wrote a perfect paper. Corlyn placed third in typewriting. We are real proud of our students. St. A. took second place in the contest. Pocatello took first with eighteen points; St. Anthony and Preston tied for second place with eleven points each; and Idaho Falls got third place with nine points. 26 — The Juniors are getting all muddled up because they can’t find out when the Seniors sneak. 28 — The Juniors got fooled again today for they knew for sure the Seniors would sneak today. 29 — Senior Sneak Day. Good joke on the Juniors. The Freshies and Sophs have a glorious day sitting in the Senior and Junior seats. They felt big. 30 — Mr. Lucy came today and he was certainly good. Hope he comes again. —V.
