« AN INTRODUCTION We have selected as our announcer a “Shropshire Lad for whom and for whose poetic lines, found in our scenic section and on our division pages, we are indebted to A. E. Housman. DEDICATION To the first Abbot of the Pre-monstratensians in America, The Right Reverend B. H. Pennings. so singularly honored by His Holiness, Pope Pius XI, do we, the students of St. Norbert's, gratefully desirous of showing him our appreciation and esteem, humbly dedicate the 1925 Des Peres. FOREWORD As the time draws near when our tomorrows have become our yesterdays, when the brilliant dawn of youth has been mellowed by passing years into the soft sunset glow of age, when our eager anticipation of the days to come has given way to a fervent yearning for recollections of days gone by. then will the 1925 Des Peres be our most constant and consoling companion. 1 THE STAFF H.

Fourteen THE DES FEFES |l A Short Review of the Life and Works of The Right Reverend B. H. Pennings The history of any great institution is principally the history of its great men, so it will not be out of place to insert in this book a brief summary of the labors and successes of our president, the Right Reverend B. H. Pennings, Abbot. His solemn investiture on May 27, 1925 as Abbot, the first Norbertine Abbot in America, was an important event in the history of Wisconsin, and in the history of America in general in as much as it represents the reward of years of constant struggles against countless hardships. It was in 1893 that the Premonstratensian Fathers of Berne Abbey, Netherlands, came to Wisconsin. They had been invited by Archbishop Messmer of the Milwaukee diocese, at that time bishop of Green Bay. In that year, the need for priests familiar with the French and Flemish language had become imperative. Through the medium of Father Broens of Sturgeon Bay, whose brother was a professed religious and priest of Berne Abbey. Archbishop Messmer learned that Fathers from that Abbey could be induced to come to America. Correspondence passed back and forth and finally the Rt. Rev. Bishop paid a personal visit to the Abbey. As a result Very Reverend B. H. Pennings, Rev. Lambert Broens, and Brother Servatius came to America 1‘tnjr Fifteen THE DES PERES 1 I Xvl v £ e ■_ s in the fall of the year 1893. The Fathers were immediately given pastoral work in the so-called Belgian Peninsula. Father Pennings and Brother Servatius, after a short rest after their arduous sea-voyage, betook themselves to Delwiche, Wisconsin, the place assigned to the Fathers. Father Broens remained with his brother at Sturgeon Bay for some time. Father Pennings found his church at Delwiche in ruins from a recent fire, and his flock more or less influenced by the nefarious work of the notorious “Bishop” Villatte. The church was quickly repaired, and the Pastor and the Brother made the sacristy their dwelling place. In 1894, Father L. Broens was made pastor of Martinsville and its missions. In the same year, two more Premonstraten-sians, Rev. R. Van Rooy, and Brother Michael arrived in Wisconsin from Berne Abbey, and were assigned to the church at Dykesville. In 1896 Rev. S. Mickers arrived, and he too was given pastoral care, namely the church at Rosiere. Bishop Messmer considered it an opportune time for the establishment of a house of the Order in this country. His Lord-ship offered the P'athers St. Joseph’s parish in I)e Pere, Wisconsin. The offer was accepted in 1898. In the same year, Father Pennings went to Kurope, with the intention of enlisting more priests from the Abbey of Berne, for missionary work in America. His efforts were successful and when he returned, he was accompanied by several Fathers and a Brother. On September 38, 1898, Bishop Messmer canonically established the Premonstratensian House at Dc Pere. Father Pennings was the superior of the little community, whose quarters were of the poorest. Less than two weeks after the installation, saw the beginning of St. Norbert’s college, in the person of Francis Van Dyke, now Father Van Dyke, the prefect of discipline at the college. Amazing success accompanied this venture, and in 1901, the number of students had grown so large, that a properly equipped school building was found necessary. By fall of 1903 the new building was ready for occupancy. In 1915. through the liberal munificence of Mr. H. Boyle of Fond du Lac, whose son, Francis, had been a student at St. Norbert’s, the Fathers received a sum of money sufficient to erect a thoroughly up-to-date structure which is known as the Francis Boyle Hall. This magnificent edifice was dedicated in September, 1916. In s I m I‘aye Sixteen jjt rfgfc THE DES FERES the same year, a central heating plant was erected. At the present time, the attendance at St. Norbert's is about 250. Among its graduates may be counted some fifty priests, and a large number of influential men in the various professions. During the rise and growth of the College the Fathers did not neglect their spiritual work. Missions in the Belgian peninsula were cared for, priests were sent to Canada, to Michigan, to Montana and to Chicago, to minister to the Catholic people of those communities. Others of the Fathers were sent to institutions of higher learning, such as the Gregorian College at Rome, the University of Louvain, the Catholic University of America, and Wisconsin University, to prepare themselves to present college courses at St. Norbert’s, on an educational par with those of the best colleges in the country. So phenomenal has the success of the work of the Premons-tratensians in America been, that the General Chapter of the Order has decided to erect St. Norbert's Priory into an Abbey, the only one in North America. The Holy Father, Pope Pius XI, has appointed Prior B. H. Pennings as the first Abbot. Although Father Pennings was not the first Premonstratensian to try to establish a house of his Order in America, an unsuccessful attempt having been made by Rev. Adelbert Inama in 1845, yet he was the first to succeed. Father Pennings was born in Gemert, Holland, June 9, 1861. He received the Premonstratensian habit on Oct. 26, 1879, and emitted the vows of religion on June 6, 1884. He was ordained to the priesthood in June, 1886, and seven years later, as has been mentioned before, was sent by his superior to America. He was appointed Prior of the American establishment in November, 1903. And as a fitting culmination to the fatiguing and zealous work he has done, he has now been consecrated the first Premonstratensian Abbot in North America.

Sy “Sy” has not been with us very long, hut since his coming he has won the esteem of all. When things look blue and seem to be going wrong, White is always there with a pleasant smile and a helping hand. In his classes he has denoted a tenacity of purpose and an indomitable determination which assures him of attaining his ultimate goal. Keep after it ! We’re all with you. “Philippi “Philippi” is one of the most versatile of college students. Because of his short, round build he proved to be a great help to Coach Carey on the gridiron. Even after he was tackled he could roll for considerable extra yardage. In the class-room he was capable and steady. While he was assistant librarian he showed that he could not be bluffed when he escorted Kondou and Steinmeta from the library for misbehavior. Another event that most of the older students will remember happened at Legion Park. “Philippi downed his man time after time, with swift hard tackles. Bernie “Bernie” is a most talented member of the college department. He stands at the head of all these classes. Now, don't picture to yourself a bookworm who thinks only of textbooks and treatises for if you do you will completely miss “Bernie’s” character. He is one of St. Norbert’s foremost athletes in football, basketball, base-ball, track he has won his varsity letter in all of them. Any activity, new or old, finds him taking deep and personal interest in it. Add to these accomplishments a winning personality, friendliness and a keen sense of humor and you will have a fairly vivid character sketch of “Bernie. THE DES FEEES DAVID RONDOU. A. B. CHARLES KENNY, A. B. “Crafty” “Charlie” West Depere, Wis. West Depere, Wis. Crafty” While still in high school his playmates dubbed him Crafty’’ because of his elusive tactics on the basket-ball floor. Now that he has become a collegian he is, naturally far more reserved and dignified than he was as a common” Academic. His evasiveness, however, has not in the least lost its edge, but has been even more finely sharpened. The professor who can keep Crafty from successfully eluding in one way or another the pitfalls of examination does not teach at this school. “Charlie” One look at Charlie’s features and you will be convinced that at last you have met with a serious, studious collegian. But look again. Those eyes which just now seem to be earnestly searching for more and more knowledge may in a minute be brightened with a roguish twinkle. The monotony of many class periods has been broken by one of Kenny's sudden Irish witticisms. Although Charles was usually too busy with his studies to indulge in athletics, he could usually be seen in the gym at noon helping Crafty to whip his day-dodger basketball team into shape. The bumps which he received during the course of these workouts sometimes disabled him temporarily, but he always came back for more. May he be able to do the same when Dad Time takes a wallop at him in the future. 1‘inj.- Ttrmlf Sijr ACADEMIC SENIORS is I HARRY MASSF. “Harry” Green Bay, Wis.

S� T| S|I OUR COLLEGIANS Each year before the Dos Peres goes to press some ‘member of the student body is detailed to compose an article eulogizing the college department. Each year, also, this article, after due consideration and correction, appears in the annual. The writer selected this year has an easy task indeed. Luckily he does not need to draw upon his imagination, but may rely wholly on the facts as they are. St. Norbert’s has a college department of which she may justly be proud. True, it is not very large, considered numerically. but the accomplishment of its members, and the unfailing spirit which actuated these accomplishments completely covers this deficiency. Popular conception has pictured the college youth either as a glittering dandy. genius “cake-eater,” who simply could not exist without his tea or golf, or else as a swaggering “rah-rah-boy” displaying a monogram sweater and a loud skull-cap. Anyone who should attempt to find either of these conceptions personified will achieve the same results as did Diogenes of old in his famous lantern-hunt for an honest man. We do not endeavor to imply that our college men are embryo saints or angels perish the thought but neither are they the other extreme. They are too gentlemanly to be the latter and just a little too independent and human to be saints. They are just a group of regular fellows, true pioneer types to blaze the way for the future collegians. May greatest success attend them. I'tKji Forty-Six First How: E. Brinkmann, .). Smithwick, A.

OUR JUNIOR ACADEMICS It is impossible to scan this group of intelligent faces, without acknowledging that the hope of a “Greater St. Norbert’s” lies mainly within the power of these rising young gentlemen. Who can gaze upon those alert countenances and fail to visualize the intellectual power unfurling itself by degrees 'neath those classic brows. Yea. this, the class of ’26. so united as to be hardly distinguishable from one another in talent, ye: each adding his mite to the general illumination, is far from unpromising in aspect. There are, among the group, certain individuals. who, aside from their great mental capabilities, have been gifted with such a degree of physical fitness, as to enable them to participate in ali manner of college athletic activities. Fox and Schneider have already upon occasion displayed their remarkable ability on the football field, and upon this evidence are promised a brilliant future in athletic circles at St. Norbert’s. By no means less important to the school is the department of music in which the Juniors are ably represented. Oft have the fiery hearts of the students been soothed to a deep calm, or raised to ethereal heights of sublimity by the rendition of an artistic-selection on the saxophone by Gardner Hessel. or startled into martial rigidity of posture by the sudden roll of drums in the hands of Wirkus, who is gifted also with the ability to entertain upon the accordion. Both have frequently made their appearance before public assemblies and proved themselves worthy of the vigorous applause accorded them. The Junior class is, then, a body of young men. bonded together by ties of closest friendship and royalty to their Alma Mater, whose hearts are inflamed with ardent aspirations toward the winning of that goal, which for the past three years they have been as earnestly striving. They are the giant tree in bloom, the golden bloom, we have every reason to expect, of success. ’« .• Forty-Siren ( r des feres —J.'-UjL-- «- . -- — ■ ■ ■ - . .., .7 V iTvj iffr-: f i y n-— -- ■■---' — 1 ■ 1 • 7 — First Row: B.

OUR SOPHOMORE ACADEMICS Indeed old “Father Time must hold much in store for these intellectual young men. What future Miltons. Aristotles. Virgils, Shakespeares, or Cromwells swell their ranks? Surely their intelligent, fair countenances promise this and more. But their achievements are not left wholly for the future. They have already entered the banquet hall and are now tasting sweet balm of success. High honors have been bestowed upon them both in the classroom and on the campus. In Homer and Caesar, in football and baseball, the “Sophs give every indication of equalling if not surpassing the envious records of their predecessors, the past graduates of St. Norbert’s. In every educational institution of note, there are a number of students who are continually on the alert for an opportunity of displaying their wit. And what plain un- varnished misery would not entail, were the routine of school work never to be enlivened by the bright sayings and ingenious replies of these most indispensible of human beings? To this class of gloom dispellers belong Jimmy” Moes. and Eddie” Martins, whose brilliant wit and spicy humor have enlightened many an arduous task. In Hank Everson, Shorty Marcotte, Porky Charles, and Sylvester Linzmeyer, along with the three musketeers Kobes, Dernbach and Van Heurek, the Sophomores boast of a group of athletes, scholars, and leaders, unparalleled by even the higher classes. All in all the “Sophs of '25 form an ideal class—one that St. Norbert’s can justly be proud of, and one that will be proud to have her as its Alma Mater. 1925 I’uyr 1 I'orhf-Eight First Row: G.

OUR FRESHMEN ACADEMICS Rest a thoughtful gaze upon the brilliant faces that speak of St. Norbert’s future glory. These fair-featured youths have sought the benefits of learning in the hallowed halls that spoke of naught hut loneliness when on last September's o| ening day like daring soldic rs they marched about within them. There were some on that evening, perhaps their first away from home, who, while watching the gentle ripples of the majestic, flowing Fox, saw upon them the scenes of home and felt for brief moments the clinching grasp of homesickness. Fortunately however, the spirit of newly found ail-venture finally surged up within their unnaturally saddened hearts and once more the smile that brought happiness in the quiet home seemed to beam forth on their radiant countenances. Though youthful in appearance the stories that were related of heroic deeds and masterful feats thrilled even the Seniors. “Bruno the hero of the hour explained in thunderous language how for mere exercise he could swim the width of the Fox fifty times in rapid succession. The monotonous repetition of his incomprehensible feats caused the Sophs’ to take a definite step towards his initiation into boarding-school society. He was suddenly awakened from his dreams one night shortly past eleven, when he heard the terrible crash of his head upon the cold and merciless floor. The effect of this initiation heajied upon the general student body the burdensome thoughts of sorrowful repentance because our super-human friend ceased to tell his wondrous tales. In sports our brilliant “Freshies need bow their heads to neither “Sophs nor Juniors and if they haven’t stepped to the top as yet in the High School roll of honor they have been the loyal supporters of the foot-ball team that has made St. Norbert’s famous. Though gay and contented in outdoor sports, they have been far from delinquent in their studies. Like zealous students they have mastered the conjugations in Latin, corrected their mistakes in Knglish. studied arduously the memorable dates of Ancient History and have in all cases been a pleasure to the� r teachers. So here’s to the “Freshies” of '25 with luck to them as the “Sophs of ’26. Patjc b'nrltf- .V nc First Row: H. Hendricks, I. McCloskey, F. McNamara. C. McAbee, N. Smith, V. McKeough, C. McAllister, W.

OUR COMMERCIALS In the fall of '23 into our midst came a group of intelligent and industrious young men with a definite aim in view, that some day they would he prosperous men in the world of iinance and business enterprise. Again when the portals of St. Norbort’s were thrown open last September we were greeted with more such young men all inspired with the same ambition as their predecessors. Among this highly intelligent group we find many of our old high school graduates. “Buddy McCloskey whose marked ability as a humorist and pole-vaulter is well known to all. Siki” Me Abee the renowned pugilist and financier of many of our college undertakings. Pat McKeough the Captain of that “Wonder ’Levon that raised high the standard of the athletic ability of St. Norhert's in the Middle West. Louis Weiss the Two River youth whose knowledge of sports seems almost unlimited and whose “say so” in this line is taken as gospel truth by his admirers. Francis McNamara, the Manis-tique coal-tosser, respected by al! on account of his mighty strength. Clement Van Gemert whose relatives have considerable to do with his popularity among some of our college students.

CAREY THE DES PERES FOOTBALL AND ST. NORBERT'S The fall of 1924 saw St. Norbert’s under the expert tutelage of Coach Carey, reach the level of the best secondary Colleges in the State. After a wonderful Season during which the Green White vanquished Wauwatosa Aggies, Ripon, St. John's Military Academy, Wis. School of Mines, and De Paul University, the “Green Juggernaut was acclaimed Non-Conference Champions of Wisconsin. In addition to this the Green White claimed the Catholic Mid-West Title and challenged the winner of the Columbia—St. Viators game, to play for the championship. Unfortunately that game ended, a scoreless tie and the championship was disputed with St. Xorbert’s claim as good as any. To even the most casual observer, it must be apparent that football is the one thing that vitalized St. Norbert’s Spirit and reveals that spirit to the friends of the school. It is a spirit that demands in the Green White warrior the qualities of a good loser and a good winner. It is a spirit that reaches out and binds the alumni more closely to their Alma Mater. We know that St. Norbert's would be worth while without football but we also know that it is a better place with football and that its football men represent the most finished, the best educated in the wide sense and the finest specimens of St. Norbert’s men. T192S 1‘uijt Fifty-Four FOOTBALL Captain Football P. McKKOUGH CAPTAIN -PAT” McKEOUGH The injury to (’apt. “Pat” in the Lawrence contest robbed the Green and White of the hardest smashing halfback that ever wore a St. Xorbert's uniform. He weighed only one hundred and forty-five pounds, but every ounce of it was composed of fighting, tearing, football skill and spirit. After smashing Wauwautosa’s line to pieces in the opening game, and then holding back the Lawrence advance by his deadly tackling. a broken shoulder forced him out for the rest of the season. His knowledge of the game combined with his Irish daring and sturdy character made him a real leader for the 1924 Champions. tifip-FUc .� s fyfiA ,6,, l r First Row: H. Everson, H. Miron, L. Fox, N.

Frequent showers during the preceding week and a driving rain storm on the very day of the contest made Legion Park a soggy, slippery mudhole. After five minutes of play Quaterback Masse, realizing that substantial gains were impossible and that Bunker was a consistent kicker of a muddy ball, decided to keep the pigskin in the Aggies possession and play for a fumble. By this policy the Green and White succeeded in pushing back the down state team till they were forced to punt from behind their own goal line. Mere St. Norbert’s demonstrated that they had a strong defensive punch by breaking through and nailing the kicker before he was able to punt, “Bill Reilly making the tackle. This gave St. Norbert’s a safety. In the second period, with the line opening up holes consistently the Green and White pilot suddenly opened up with an offensive drive. Captain “Pat McKeough smashed the line for gains of four. six. eight and twelve yards and followed this up with a fifteen yard dash around the left end. putting the ball on the five yard line. On the next play Bunker plunged over right tackle for a touchdown. With the score eight to nothing in the locals favor and the Milwaukee gridders practically helpless. Masse continued his punting policy, being content with a low score on such a hopeless field. A few minutes before the game ended, Bunker, aided by faultless interference. slipped and skidded his way fifty yards down the field for a touchdown. The final whistle blew with the score 14 to 0 in favor of St. Norbert’s. Lawrence 42 St. Norbert’s 0 The 1924 season was one of set-backs throughout the entire football world. St. Norbert's. too, fell a victim to the general habit, meeting their Waterloo at the hands of I awrence. The game started with Bunker kicking off to Briese who returned the oval 20 yards. Lawrence immediately started a rushing attack, but were forced to punt after gaining a first down by inches. As the Lawrence offense looked weak, while the St. Norbert’s line seemed strong. Masse decided to punt. Here the old “jinx seemed to settle on the Green and White. The kicking was so wretched that after an exchange of I'nijr Sixty-Four punts the Orange and Black had possession of the ball in the very shadow of St. Norbert’s goal posts. Added to this the right side of the St. Norbert’s line started to weaken and soon Zussman, on a fake play, slipped through 12 yards for a touchdown. To cap the Green and White misfortunes Captain McKeough the hard smashing halfback and deadly tackier, was forced out of the game with a broken shoulder. Through this unexpected injury the offense was so weakened that Masse was forced to lay plans for a forward passing attack. Lawrence, completely ignoring the poor punting game of St. Norbert’s started a concentrated rushing attack on the right side of the line. All attempts on the stalwart veterans. Klaus and Ouradnik were thrown back but the right side weakened more and more. When one Orange and Black backtield was used up in smashing, a new and seemingly faster quartet took its place. St. Norbert’s 6 With a week to prepare for the Ripon game three problems faced Coach Geo. L. Carey; the right side of the line had to be bolstered up; the wretched punting of the Lawrence game must not be repeated: and the loss of Captain Me Keough forced a stronger emphasis to be laid on the passing game. To meet these emergencies tne formations were changed slightly so as to admit of a shiftier and more deceptive open style of play. The game started with Ripon kicking to Masse who was downed on the 20 yard line. Hesitating to risk a punting game, which Ripon evidently expected. Masse tried a few plays from open formation. Bunker gained 20 yards. Hughes 15. and a pass. Bunker to Reilly, gave 10 more. Here the Finally Briese behind great interference zigzagged h's way 22 yards for a touchdown Soon after this the half ended. It was evident that the Lawrence offense could not be stopped and St. Norbert’s must hold the ball as long as possible and watch a favorable opportunity to pass. In the meantime the giant Lawrence linesmen had showed renewed vigor and all attempts at passing by the Green and White backs were hurried. As soon as Lawrence got the ball they began a march toward the goal. The quick shifting backs and the spread formation of the Lawrence team baffled their more inexperienced opponents and late in the third quarter Nobles circled end for another touchdown. Fiend added two more scores while the final touchdown for the Appleton collegians came when Stoll fell on a St. Norbert’s fumble and rolled over the line. Ripon 0 Green and White, being momentarily stopped, tried out their kicking game. Tom Fox. who was playing his first game on the squad was chosen as hootsmith and his sensational kicking changed the entire character of the contest, for when St. Norbert’s surrendered the ball, Ripon had to exchange a great deal of yardage for it. One problem seemed to have been settled. Encouraged by the super punting the line proceeded to smash up every type of offense that the Crimson could offer and Schroeder’s presence at right tackle made that side as impregnable as the other. But despite the brilliant playing of the Green and White, it was the resourceful Little Five Champions that they were pitted against and three times the Crimson backs brought '«yr Sixlij-t'irf THE DES PEEKS IK )fl3C7VC KfVjUU A 'wV Pco rO-.v r'JKt the ball within scoring distance. Three times the St. Norbert's line stiffened and Ripon's place kicks went wild. It was now the opening of the fourth quarter. Ripon had showed everything in a vain endeavor to score. The time had come for Masse ,to open up. A brilliant running attack brought the ball into scoring territory. Ripon. playing a man for man defense against passes, had left Fox and Reilly open time and again for short heaves. When the Ripon defense was completely bewildered. Coach Carey sent in Me Keough and Londo, to replace Fox and Reilly. Masse, immediately sensed the situation and proceeded with the Matador stroke. Pass after pass was hurled to the fresh and speedy ends. Hut Ripon. summoning all its power, held the Green and White on its two yard line and a minute later Olson punted to mid-field. Still St. Norbert’s was not to he denied. B. Me Keough received a 15 yard pass. Again a pass was called and the Ripon defense being drawn over to cover Me Keough. Londo was left absolutely clear. Receiving a perfect pass from Bunker, the fleet end jogged over the line for the only touchdown of the game. 1 HOMECOMING GAME Sc. Norbert’s 31 Platteville College of Mines 0 For the annual Homeecming Game the management secured one of the strongest college teams in the state. The Platteville College of Mines came here with the reputation of having defeated Campion College and of having held the strong Columbia College of Iowa to a 1.3 to 0 score. But when the “Miners” came to De Pere they found a team that was traveling at the zenith of its power; a team with a stone wall defense, a skilled and sturdy offense, and a fighting spirit intensified by the lusty plaudits of hundreds of “old grads.” Platteville had a truly great eleven, but there was not a college team in the West that could have stopped the victorious sweep of the Green and White warriors on that day. l ed by the superb generalship of Ben Masse, the stellar plunging of Sonny Steinmetz and the brilliant forward passing combination, Bunker to Schumacher, St. Norbert’s swept through and over the helpless Miners for five glorious touchdowns. Plateville made only four first downs throughout the contest and not once did they seriously threaten the Green and White goal. The game opened with Captain McCoy of Platteville kicking off to Schumacher. Overanxiety caused a fumble and a consequent 10 yard loss on the first play but a -1 yard gain by Steinmetz “the old reliable restored the team to normal, and a minute later a beautiful 50 yard punt by Bunker went soaring down the field. Twice the Miner’s backs crashed in vain against the Green and White stone Wall and then Suhr punted. Following an exchange of punts Platteville showed their only “punch” of the game. Rector tossed a 20 yard pass to Martens and followed this up with a ten yard gain. But the “Al Schwalbeck dumped the same Rector for a loss and a minute later Steinmetz intercepted one of their passes. To cap the climax, on the first play by St. Norbert's. Bunker broke through a hole opened by Klaus and Ouradnik and dashed fiO yards down the field for the first score. Platteville choosing to receive. Bunker kicked off to McCoy. After making one first down Platteville was forced to kick. Then Schumacher slipped around right end for 50 yards but a fumble gave the Miners the ball. Unable to gain Platteville punted and Masse ran the kick back for 30 yards. Here the Green and White began to demonstrate the real power of its attack. Schumacher made 10 yards. Masse heaved a 10 yard pass to Reilly and another to Schumacher. Steinmetz plunged through center for 5 yards, putting the ball on Platteville’s 8 vard line iust as the whistle blew for the half. In the third quarter B. McKeough and Tommy” Fox took the wing positions from Reilly and Londo. Fox celebrated his entrance by dropping Dunn twice for 10 yard losses. Platteville punted and once more the Green and White offense swung into action. Steinmetz, Masse and Schumacher assaulted the Platteville line for gain after gain and then Bunker hurled the pigskin 20 yards into the waiting arms of Schumacher who raced 15 yards to the goal. Platteville again kicked off to St. Norbert’s Klaus receiving the kickoff. Again the tireless Green and White Juggernaut started its triumphant goalward march. The St. Norbert’s line opened huge holes in the Miners l ujc Sixty-Six 'V Xifty-Sreeu defense through which the powerful Stein-metz plunged for long gains. A momentary setback came when acting Captain Klaus was put out of the game and St. Norbcrt’s was penalized half the distance to the goal line for unnecessary roughness, but H. Masse stepped into the breach and inspired by the fighting spirit of his mates, played with all the fire and skill of a veteran. Just to show that he was not daunted by this break Ben Masse broke away for a 20 yard gain, to be followed by a 40 yard pass. Bunker to Schumacher. Then Steinmetz on successive plunges of 4. 6, and 8 yards carried the ball to the 3 yard line, and lunged over for the St. Norbert’s 28 Displaying a strong defense and a dazzling overhead drive, St. Norbert’s crushed St. John’s Military Academy in a game that gave the non-conference championship of Wisconsin to the De Fere collegians. Acting Captain Klaus won the toss and chcse to defend the south goal with a strong wind at his back. When St. John’s chose to receive the kickoff in the teeth of such a gale, the Green and White suspected that they were planning some trick as a flyer. Accordingly, alert, the whole team was down on the kickoff and smeared an attempted cris cross, barely missing a touchdown when the Cadets fumbled the ball. They recovered and after trying a few position plays, punted. The strong wind drove the ball offside but a scant ten yards past the scrimmage line. St. Norbert’s immediately took advantage of the “breaks” created by the poor punt, poor position and unsuccessful kick and opened up with the thrusts and passes that had humbled Ripon and Platteville. Schumacher, again proved third touchdown just as the fourth quarter opened. After that score St. Norbert's flashy aerial stunts came thick and fast. The huge HOMECOMING crowd was treated to one sensation after another in a whirlwind finish. The fourth touchdown came on a 30 yard pass. Masse to Steinmetz. Here Coach Carey substituted most of his regulars but the second string men kept up the bewildering aerial attack, the last score coming on a 20 yard heave, Gallagher to Reilly. When the final whistle blew St. Norbert’s had won another HOMECOMING game by the overwhelming score of 31 to 0. St. John’s 7 to be the nemesis for St. John's and slashed through left tackle for 20 yards and a touchdown. A few minutes later Bunker tossed a pass to Londo who galloped 20 yards for the second marker. In the second period St. John’s settled down and Wood began to gain consistently. Heartened by his success the Cadets attempted to beat St. Norbert’s at their own game but the omnipresent Schumacher intercepted one of their passes and dashed 60 yards down the field to the 3 yard line. On the next play he carried it over for the third score of the game. St. Norbert’s, not satisfied with a 21 to 0 count, continued their wild drive. A ten yard heave Masse to Reilly, was followed by the most sensational play of the game, a spot pass, Bunker to Steinmetz. The Cadet linesmen broke through and Bunker had to use all his cunning, sidestepping, dodging, retreating, to enable Steinmetz to get to the spot. Surrounded by five charging greyclad linesmen Bunker I’ttijf Sixty-Kiyht aSfif THE DES PE EES i%$nr = heaved the pass accurately to the spot where “Sonny” was supposed to be. But “Sonny” had been covered by the defense which had sensed the play and it seemed that little short of perfect execution would allow him to complete the play. Jumping high in the air and scooping the ball from the arms of one of the Delafield men, the blond Green and White fullback, ran to within inches of the goal. Then Schumacher plunged over left tackle for the fourth touchdown of the Green and White. At the beginning of the second half Coach Carey started most of his second string men. wishing to give his regulars a chance to rest before the hard De Paul battle scheduled for the following Saturday. St. John’s at once proceeded to overwhelm the weakened Northerners, but the stubborn defensive tactics of the Green and White reserves enabled them to put over only one touchdown. Wood plunging over late in the fourth quarter. St. Norbert’s 2 On Saturday, November 8, a St. Norbert’s team invaded the Windy City for the first time and spoiled the Homecoming of De Paul University by handing them a 2 to 0 defeat. The game was bitterly fought throughout with the Green and White having the edge on the heavy University gridders. De Paul won the toss and chose to defend the south goal. Bunker kicked off, and I)e Paul, after making two first downs on line smashes, were held, and punted. Masse grabbed the punt and returned the oval 20 yards. St. Norbert’s began a march down the field, using line smashes and short end runs, coupled with a 15 yard pass. Masse to Bunker which put the ball on De Paul’s 15 yard line. Matt Schumacher was hurt in the play and retired with a wrenched ankle. Stage replaced him. A wonderful punt by Gaffney, All-Western halfback, put the ball Dc Paul 0 back on St. Norbert’s forty yard line. For the remainder of the first quarter the teams battled evenly. The Green and White line, led by the giant Nett, smothered the Chicagoan’s offense, while Reilly was down like a flash on Bunker’s punts and prevented them from being returned. After another exchange of punts St. Norbert's resumed its progress toward the Chicago goal, mixing up off-tackle smashes with a short overhead drive. The De Paul line stiffened on its own 2 yard line and held St. Norbert’s for downs. An attempted punt by Gaffney was blocked, the De Paul fullback recovered, but was pounced upon by Villiesse for a safety. For the remainder of the second period the play was in De Paul's territory. A few minutes before the close De Paul let loose with a wild aerial attack, but the passes were grounded too often to negotiate a score. I’mjr Six!if - , inf m THE DES PEFES m In the third period the weight and the hard smashing tactics of the Chicago players told on the Green and White, and De Paul, aided by a few opportune penalties, brought the ball twice to St. Norbert’s G yard line. Here, again. Nett saved the day for St. Norbert’s by dropping Moran for an 8 yard loss. Melchoir tried twice to snatch victory by dropkicking. but the position of the ball was unfavorable. In the final quarter St. Norbert’s back-fielders. Bunker. Steinmetz and Stage assaulted De Paul’s line and worked the ball to De Paul’s 15 yard line but the Chicago stonewall defense prevented scoring. With five minutes to play and the ball on De Paul’s 20 yard line Moran hurled a 60 yard pass down the field and it was given to De Paul where it was grounded because of alleged interference. Masse was put out of the game for protesting too vigorously on the decision, and B. McKeough went in at quarterback. Failing to gain De Paul tried a placekick. but the Green and White forwards were in too fast and the ball went wide of the goal posts. The whistle blew as Steinmetz snatched a pass and was downed after a short run. Milwaukee Normal 7 St. Norbert’s 6 The final game cf the season saw St. Norbert’s opposed to Milwaukee Normal at Milwaukee. The Normalites had shown a steady improvement all season and were at the top of their form, having defeated Oshkosh Normal G to 0 on the previous Saturday. St. Norbert’s on the contrary, worn and weakened by their hard struggle with Ripon Platteville St. .John’s and their terrific struggle with De Paul University, had lest a great part of the speed, stamina and fighting spirit that had made them famous throughout the state. Bunker kicked off to Berry who fumbled. Ouradnik recovered for St. Norbert’s on the 25 yard line but four Green and White passes went astray and they had to surrender tin- ball to Milwaukee. The Normalites immediately started a strong offensive drive and with “Red Evans leading the attack, kept the ball in St. Norbert’s territory during the first quarter. Shortly after the opening of the second period Berry fumbled one of Bunker’s punts and Klaus coming down fast under the kick, scooped up the pigskin and pranced 55 yards down the field for a touchdown. Bunker missed the goal by inches. The score seemed to put an extra fire into the Milwaukeans play, and aided by a long pass, they brought the ball to St. Norbert’s 12 yard line. Here Ouradnik who had been playing a stellar game, broke his hand and wis forced out. being replaced by H. Masse. The weakened Green and White team fought doggedly for five downs but were unable to stop the plunging Evans who dove over the line for a touchdown. A moment later he gave his team a 7 to 6 lead by kicking the goal. In the third quarter the teams battled evenly. St. Norbert’s offense was helpless but so was the Normals. About the middle of the fourth quarter the Green and White opened up with a Hash of the old power and smashed and passed their way to the Milwaukee 10 yard line. But the spurt had used up their little remaining strength and Milwaukee got the ball on downs. One last desperate attempt was made by St. Norbert’s to snatch a victory. A fifteen yard pass. Masse to Steinmetz put the ball on the 25 yard line but Bunker’s place kick went wild and the last chance to score was gone. The game ended soon after. EF I I age Seemly The Reserves THE 1924 RESERVES It sounds like old stuff to chronicle here the stereotyped phrases regarding the part that the reserves play in building up a championship football team. But like many other trite statements its triteness is due to its absolute truth and it applies with especial force to the 1924 second string men. These men for their unceasing efforts for a successful Varsity, a game was scheduled with St. Joe’s of Escanaba, a team that had defeated the best high schools of the upper peninsula. Hardened by long scrimmages with the Varsity and imbued with the fighting spirit of the Green and White, the Reserves Mashed forth a combined aerial and line smashing offensive and crushed St. Joe’s 19 to 0. It would be hard to pick out any individual stars but James Gallagher by his open field running and accurate passing featured the contest. ’« . Str ‘nly-Oiic _ §0. THE DES FEEESlKlM FOOTBALL REVIEW In the fall of 1914 Coach Carey came to De Pere and since then, except during the war period, he has had charge of athletics at the college. During this time St. Norbert’s has lost only one home football game. The 1923 team went through the season with a clean record. It defeated every opponent by at least two touchdowns and was not scored upon. The 1924 season opened auspiciously with the defeat of the Wauwatosa Aggies. The team then gained state wide recognition by defeating Ripon College, claimants of the Little Five Championship, on its home grounds by score of 6 to 0. The Wisconsin Miners and St. John’s Military Academy, rivals for the State Non-Conference Championship, fell before the Green Juggernaut on two successive Saturdays and were crushed by overwhelming scores. After annexing this title the team invaded Chicago and defeated De Paul University. This victory opened the way for another title, the Catholic Championship of the Middle-West. Columbia of Iowa and St. Viators of Illinois played for this title but the game ended in a tie. St. Norbert’s then made an unsuccessful attempt to play either cr both of these teams. This title remains disputed with the St. Norbert’s claim as strong as any other. A IS2S Puijr Semity-Tteo THE DES FERES BASKETBALL CAPT. “SONNY STEINMETZ Capt. Steinmetz is perhaps the greatest guard that ever wore a Green and White uniform. Of a long, rangy build and possessed of a determined fighting spirit and a veteran knowledge of the game, he well deserved to be captain of the 1924-25 quintet. His personality was of a kind to make him a real leader both on and oil' the court. Basketball Captain A. STEINMETZ BASKETBALL LETTERMEN Capt. Steinmetz G. Beth B. McKeough C. Klaus L. Guenther C.

Steinmetz St. Norbert s IB The 1924-25 basketball season was opened by an encounter with the Algoma Normal quintet. The College five was handicapped by the ineligibility of Klaus and Nesbitt while Schroeder was forced to leave soon after the opening of the contest. Then too Coach Carey had been able to inaugurate practice only three days before while the Normalites had already played three games. The first half was evenly fought, St. Norbert’s inability to locate the basket preventing them from gaining more than an 8 to 7 lead. The second half found the college quintet traveling in whirlwind fashion. Fast teamwork, speedy pivoting and dribbling, and excellent shooting by Beth and Stage gave Algoma Normal 19 them a 16 to 7 lead when the fourth quarter opened. But here lack of condition told and the Normal quintet having the advantage of a month’s training, came back with a vengeance and scored four field goals in rapid succession. The tired collegians staged a stubborn resistance but were forced to bow in defeat when Kinard caged a beautiful long shot just as the final whistle sounded. Despite the defeat Coach Carey was optimistic concerning the success of the coming season. At times in spite of their lack of condition the collegians showed whirlwind form while the guarding of Capt. “Sonny” Steinmetz left nothing to be desired in that line. St. Norbert’s 35 Central Wisconsin College 12 Coach Carey's predictions for a successful triumphed over Central Wisconsin College season received ample verification in the by a 35 to 12 score. Strengthened by the second game, when the Green and White addition of Klaus at center they jumped into I'nijf Sr renty-Four the lead right after the opening whistle and held this lead throughout. “Red” Beth was the high individual scorer with five field goals and three foul throws, hut was closely followed by Klaus with four field goals and two free throws. Steinmetz and Schroeder at the guard positions held the C. W. C. five to two lone field goals their other eight points coming from free throws. The agile Guenther slipped around the Central guards time and again for easy shots at the basket. Throughout the entire contest St. Norbert’s displayed snappy teamwork, accurate shooting and strong defense. St. Norbert’s 20 In the first contest after the Christmas holidays the St. Norbert’s five traveled to ()shkosh to meet the State Normal Champions in their own back yard. The Collegians had been form! to break training during vacation and were in no condition to put up the brand of basketball that the huge Oshkosh floor demanded. Throughout the entire first half the Green and White were practically helpless before the dazzling teamwork of Gahan. Oshkosh Normal 43 Williams and Hackharth, coupled with the speedy dribbling of Hawkins. The score at the half time was 29 to 8 in favor of Oshkosh. In the final period the Green and White became more familiar with their surroundings and their style of play improved wonderfully. Led by “Sparkplug” Nesbitt they counted 13 points to 14 for the Normal champions. Nesbitt with fine field goals accounted for half of the total points gained by his team. §L 7)192S Vujr Sr truly-Fitt B. MeKeough J. Stage L- Guenther St. Norbert’s 23 Stevens Point 13 The Green and White again flashed forth in whirlwind fashion on Saturday night, Jan. 10, and defeated Stevens Point Normal, 23 to 13. St. Norbert’s took an early lead when Nesbitt and Beth each dropped in a field goal and this together with a couple of free throws gave them a 6 to 2 lead at the end of the first quarter. In the second quarter Stevens Point threatened strongly to step out in front but the end of the half found them still trailing by a 9 to 7 score. In the third period St. Norbert’s added two more points to their slender lead while the super guarding of Steinmetz and Schroeder forced the Pointers to confine their scoring attempts to long shots. In the final quarter the flaming haired Beth electrified the crowd by sinking three long ones in rapid succession. Throughout the first three quarters of the contest the Green and White had played a safe and defensive style of play but in the final frame they opened up and swept through their opponents for ten points. The final score was 23 to 13. St. Norbert’s 16 Concordia College 18 Before a packed house St. Norbert’s basketball five dropped a thrilling game 18 to 16 to Concordia College of Milwaukee when Frieburger, the sensational white-haired forward, dropped in the deciding basket, a minute before the end and ran his own total points to 12. St. Norbert’s squad was off color, their passing and handling of the ball was ragged. “Red’’ Beth was the only one with an eye for the basket, and he counted 10 of the team’s 16 points. Nesbitt got one field goal. Klaus accounted for four points with a long field goal and two free tosses. I'agr Scrr ify-XiX TT The Green and White started off fast, counting eight points before the Milwaukee outfit found themselves. Then Frieburger, substituting for Gauth. who sustained a broken nose, began finding the hoop, and Concordia crept up to within two points of the collegians at the half. The count was 10 to 8. In the second stanza the play was St. Norbert’s 23 In one of the most thrilling games ever seen on the local floor St. Norbert's swept to a 28-22 victory over the unusually strong Y. M. C. A. squad of Appleton. Captain Steinmetz was injured but two days before the fracas and his absence greatly dimmed the Collegians chances for a victory. In the first half the game was slow and uninteresting, the “Y” gaining a 10-6 lead. In the second half “Bernie McKeough was put in at guard and his star defensive work seemed to inject the necessary pep into the Green fast and furious, neither side gaining more than a lead of one basket. Finally with the score knotted to 16, Frieburger. counted his sixth basket that spelled defeat for the locals. Frieburger and Kretschmar starred for Concordia while Beth and Capt.

With “Red Beth leading the attack they climbed up to even terms with the Appleton quintet. The two teams battled along first one then the other taking the lead until about two minutes before the close Nesbitt dropped in two baskets giving St. Norbert’s a 28-20 lead. Packert giant center for the “Y quintet counted another basket just as the final whistle blew but the Green and White had the game safely sewed up and copped by a one point margin. Coach G. Carey J.

Van Zeeland St. Norbert’s 35 On Tuesday. January 27. the Oshkosh State Normal Champions came to St. Norbert’s for a return game with the Green and White. Oshkosh was travelling in its usual whirlwind fashion but St. Norbert’s too displayed a high class brand of basketball and the result was the fastest and most thrilling game ever witnessed in this vicinity. In the first quarter the Normal played rings around the College, scoring 17 points to their 3. But then the Green and White woke up and during the final three quarters scored 32 points to 28 for Oshkosh. At half time the score was 24 to 15 and at the opening of the fourth quarter 31 to 29. Then followed ten minutes of the kind of basketball that Oshkosh Normal 43 makes the caging gt:me the most thrilling and breathtaking in the world. Both teams were battling wi.h every ounce of spirit and skill, Oshkcsh to preserve their unbeaten record, the Green and White to win a glorious victory. Brilliant team work, speedy dribbling and sensational shooting kept the scores of both let ms mounting. With but two minutes to go and the score 37 to 35 in favor of Oshkosh, the break” came for the Green and White Red” Beth was forced to leave the gene through injuries. This seemed to knock the morale out of the Collegians rnd the Normal, quick to see the big chance for victory, stepped out and won the game in the remaining two minutes. St. Norbert’s 28 Concordia 22 Following the Oshkosh encounter the Green and White invaded Milwaukee for a return game with Concordia. Their invasion was successful and before a huge crowd that packed the V. M. C. A. building, they trounced the Milwaukee team 28 to 22. St. Norbert’s displayed their best form of the entire year in this game and it was only Con- '.« • Sr rally-Eight m THE DES FEEES .y cordia's ability at long shots that kept them in the running. Time and again St. Norbert’s towering guards. Capt. Steinmetz and Schroe-der, snared those same long shots off the bounding board, passing to Klaus, Beth and Nesbitt, which trio carried it down the floor and counted basket after basket. The only time that the Milwaukee collegians threatened the lead of the Green and White was late in the third quarter when the count stood 16 to 18. But once again the Green and White offense swung into action and passed out of danger. The honors were pretty well divided but Klaus and Nesbitt deserve special mention. The former consistently outjumped his opponent, while the latter showed the Milwaukee fans what a speedy, fighting skillful, little forward can do. St. Norbert’s 17 Oshkosh Business College 10 The last home game of the season saw the Oshkosh Business College opposed to the Green and White. Oshkosh failed to show-much but St. Norbert’s was not showing any of the form that had triumphed over Con-cordian, Appleton “Y” and Stevens Point. During the first quarter only one point was made by each team, Beth getting a free throw. At the half it was 4 to 4. In the second half Schroeder ran wild and scored three baskets alone, which cinched the game for St. Norbert’s. Guenther, too, played a brilliant game, scoring two field goals, but outside of these two the Green and White put up a tame exhibition and seemed content with merely defeating their opponents. St. Norbert’s 19 Central Wisconsin College 13 The 1925 basketball season was closed by a victory over Central Wisconsin College. 19 to 13. The game was played in the small Centra! “gym”, and with a referee who knew but little of basketball, the regular referee having missed connections. Consequently the game was rather rough and ready. But the stalwart Green and White basket tossers were not bothered very much by the rough tactics of their opponents and gave a good account of themselves. Central had the ad- vantage of playing on a familiar floor, but they were crushed by the strength and speed of the St. Norbert’s team and trailed behind throughout. In reviewing the 1925 season special credit must be given to the Rev. W. A. Paiement who took charge of the team during the absence of Mr. Carey. He instilled much of his own “pep” and basketball experience into the players and must be given credit for a big part of the success of the 1924-25 season. Academic Season Besides serving as a practice squad for the Varsity, the academic squad, captained by Tommy Hughes, managed to play a few games now and then with the surrounding high schools. Despite the fact that there was never much attention paid toward their development into a unified team, the Academics managed to pluck a couple of victories from their opponents. Especially interesting were the series played with the local high school squads, in which the Green and White youngsters lost two out of three games, every one of which games was highly interesting and bitterly contested to the end. Page Eighty BASEBALL CAPTAIN “CHARLEY KLAUS It would be hard to find a better baseball captain than our star first sacker, Charley Klaus. Big, good natured, popular with all and yet a hard player and demon swatter, he was perhaps the strongest factor in the Green and White nine.

BASEBALL SEASON The 1924 baseball season was handicapped so severely by cold and rainy weather, that only five games were played. The opening game did not take place until the 15th of May when the Green and White, after being out on the field for only two days traveled to Oshkosh to meet the State Normal Champions. The game opened auspiciously for St. Norbert’s. Although the Normal scored 2 runs in the opening frame, the Collegians staged a rally in the second inning and scored six runs. “Bernie” McKeough then held the Oshkosh sluggers scoreless till the seventh, but here the “Balloon” went up, and Oshkosh scored ten runs in the final three innings. The College team had played stellar ball for six innings but were not in a condition to play a field game, and cracked under the strain. The next game was played at De Pere against Central Wisconsin College. The game was a pitchers battle between “Lefty” Nelson for Central and “Bernie” McKeough and “Joe” Dodge for the Green and White. The score was tied at one till the 7th inning when, with two of his mates on the bags, Captain Klaus smashed a two base hit over the center fielder's head. The final score was 3 to 1 in favor of St. Norbert’s. Oshkosh Normal furnished too much opposition in their next contest and defeated the Green and White by a large score. McKeough’s wildness proved his own undoing and Oshkosh scored 7 runs before “Joe” Dodge could be rushed to the rescue. Capt. Klaus, Ben Masse and Pat McKeough were the only ones able to solve Nussbaum's offerings. A return game with Central College followed and the Green and White won out in their half of the 9th, when with two out two men on the bases and St. Norbert’s trailing 3 to 1, “Dukes” Londo lifted a home run over the right field fence. One commencement day the Alumini showed the Varsity that they had not forgotten any of Coach Carey’s former training and triumphed 7 tc 4. The war clubs cf “Scrappy” Perow, “Joe” La Fleur and “Wasee” Londo featured the playing cf the “old grads.” Capt. Klaus, Harry Masse, Ben Masse, and Joe Stage took care of the infield, with Joe Dodge, Sonny Stein-metz, and “Jock” Srcmovsky in the outfield.

Over two hundred and fifty young athletes from all over this section of the state competed. The interest taken in the meet by others than the Collegians and the youngsters was manifested by the large crowd that gathered on the campus during the afternoon. It was quite difficult to manage them, and a suggestion has been entered to have the next meet on some more spacious grounds. All the contestants were royally entertained, being given a dinner and luncheon at the school. St. Mary’s School of Appleton won the first prize, a full tuition scholarship. St. Stephen’s of Stevens Point took second, a fifty dollar scholarship, and St. Joseph's of Appleton won the third prize, a half tuition scholarship. It is left to the school winning the prize to decide the one to take advantage of it. Excellent records were made by the grades school pupils. Beck of Apple-ton, putting the twelve pound shot 29 ft. and 9 inches, set a record that will be a tough one to beat. In the dashes, excellent time was made. Moran of Stevens Point was the high scorer of the individuals. He was presented with a beautiful silver loving cup. The three winning schools were given banners upon which the time, place and name of the school were artfully depicted. For each winner in all the events, medals were given.

With Father Traeger as director and with capable energetic officers, the society has good reason to be proud of itself. School spirit gave birth to an impetus which soon became a notable factor in the unprecedented success. Germs of literary and dramatic aptness were discovered and cultivated. Interesting meetings were satisfactorily effected by essays, talks, recitations and debates. Parliamentary practice was had when time permitted and questions engaging the attention of all were discussed. The debates though not as numerous, were in quality on par, if not superior to those of previous years. Henry Schmitt the silvertongued, Bernard McKeough the logician. Senator John ('ashman and fiery Red Beth held a hypnotic influence over all. Last but not least we must congratulate the musical department. The College Orchestra furnished music at the beginning of each program. Individual instrumental selections were faultlessly rendered by pianist Morgan Gareau and Gabriel Gamache, violinist Henry La Mothe, harmonicist Charles Ourad-nik, and accordionists “Fat” Wirkusand Norbert Kersten.

After a year’s training in the literary and dramatic organizations of the school and after having been impressionably affected by the instructions of their director. Father Millay, the actors of St. Norbert’s performed their respective parts so faultlessly, as to render this production, one of the most entertaining plays ever enacted within their college auditorium. The cast of characters was comprised of the most capable students of the institution. Donald Heggy acted the role of Cardinal Richelieu in a manner not only pleasing to the audience, but also true to the prelate’s historical character. No less successfully were the other parts performed. Lawrence Chiuminatto, Ben Masse, John La Breche and Eddie Martens romantically and faithfully played the respective roles of De Mauprat, Baradu, Joseph and Julie. Youthful Louis XIV was creditably portrayed by Henry Schmitt. The other actors also merit special commendation, for it was by their hearty co-operation that the play attained its high standard of perfection. However, much of the credit for its favorable outcome was due to the director. It was he who selected the performers and upon him fell the task of instructing them in their respective parts. As the success of an undertaking is generally a source of pride to him who was its leader, so also was the notable success of this production a fitting tribute to Father Millay.

Deloria P. Montavon H. Crain F. Van Zeeland .J. Staffney Judge F. Bielmeier “Rip Van Winkle.” was as successful a play as was ever staged at St. Norbert’s. The actors seemed to be high-classed amateurs, and seemed well-fitted for their parts. Their director and chief performer was Mr. Gysbers. He acquitted the part of Rip Van Winkle most admirably, and it was he who proved the mainstay and success of the production. Outbursts of applause and hearty laughter always gave notice of Rip’s presence on the stage. So perfect was his intonation of the old Dutch accent that College students attempted to mimic him for several days following the play. Though often repeated this expression never seemed to lose the freshness of its humor. “Here’s to your good health, to your family’s good health and may you both live long and prosperous. The role of Dame Van Winkle was faultlessly personated by Morgan Gareau. The other actors co-operated so successfully as to make the play a harmonious whole. Towards the end of the first act occurred the weirdest scene of the performance. The French school children, representing the dwarfs created wonder and admiration, when by bewitching bowling balls they produced an exact representation of lightning and thunder. So enraptured were all present that they seemed to live again those thrilling colonial days with Rip. Naturalness became him to such a degree that even the children present recognized the Rip of their primers. It is well-nigh needless to add that the play was a success and one of the biggest hits” of the season. C. Wirkus R. Deloria G. Hessel J. Vanderloop P. Montavon T.

St. John Bcrchman’s Sanctuary Society Father Exler may bo proud of his unceasing efforts in behalf of St. John’s during the past year. Success has always been the byword in any of his previous undertakings and this case has proved no exception. The assembly was larger and a co-operative spirit was more prevalent among the members than during previous years. As students with a definite vocation, each and every member served as a fitting example to the rest of the student body. Interesting programs were determining factors in the society’s success. Educational though religious talks and essays, interspersed here and there with a musical or a vocal selection lent an air of entertainment as well as one of instruction. This was due in great measure to the interest manifested by our beloved director. Father Exler. At each meeting he gave short heart to heart talks which generally fixed lasting impressions upon his audience. But we must not forget to give due credit to our capable musicians and vocalists. Gabriel Gamache, Morgen Gareau, Raymond Schmitt and Willard Butler rendered several entertaining piano selections, while Raymond Pigeon excelled with the violin. Vocalists Henry Hubert, John Righino and Donald McCarty pleasantly entertained us with some of their pleasing vocal solos.

C. i St Norbert’s may well be prowl of having a unit of the Catholic Students Mission Crusade. A more lively interest has been displayed in the proceedings of this society than in those of any of the other organiza-t ions of t he school. Though only in its second year it has secured an almost incredible foothold within this institution. The Missionary movement, though practically in its infancy has made a deep impression upon all the members of St. Norbert’s unit. Directed by Father Me Kcough, the missions have not only been aided by prayers but also by donations of small sums of money. Hot dog sales and pie sales were the sources of considerable help. During t he course of t he year various committees of two or three were formed. Some took charge of the assignment of prayers for the different mis- sionaries and their fields, and others of the work of obtaining subscriptions to several missionary magazines. Meetings were held on every second Wednesday evening. The programs presented were always interesting for every member endeavored to do his best. Talks and essays on the diversified lives of missionaries and missionary activities broadened our general knowledge to a great extent. But discussion was the spice of the program Nearly everyone took part. Much information was thereby gleaned as preparation was necessary. Father Me Keough and our president. Mr. Hubert were the impelling forces, for all enthusiasm was either directly or indirectly the consequence of their hearty co-operation. I'ttijf Hue II n nil ml Tiro C. Klaus, Sot . B. Masse, Pres.

Manager Londo upon the consideration and consent of the board secured the football games, which put St. Norbert’s on the map. Through the untiring efforts of these councilors the Green and White has secured the championship of the secondary colleges of the state of Wisconsin. In basketball a similar result was evident. The enthusiasm so prevalent among the student body was in a great measure due to this committee. The prearranged games always proved an attraction to those in the vicinity as well as to the students. Cheers and the other school spirit manifested was an impetus to the team, which so creditably represented the college. Though still in its second year no one will deny that it was the one cause for the unusual spirit of success and co-operation which was a notable feature in all athletic contests.

THE DES PERES mM •y vt= iL FRIVOLITIES OF 915 The old adage, “Laughter is akin to Ierrs is a truism first enunciated by Noah when his wife on the ark. corrplsir.ed that she needed a new Spring hat. Pe that as it may. it is cne cf these eternal things which always holds true as long as man is man and the Monogram club’s “Frivolities proved it. Along about April 1. the letter men cf S. N. C. decided to prove to all and sundry that they ecu Id make people laugh just as wholeheartedly as they had made them cheer and hold their breath in agonizing suspense during the football and basketball so:son. The college authorities were somewhat sceptical as to the qualities cf the thespian devotees who petitioned for leave to put on the show. Finally consent was obtained and the fun began. Under the capable leadership of Mr. Pen Masse, Jr., the erstwhile redoubtable quarterback, several sketches acts, novelties and other things were obtained here and there and were examined for evidences of visibility. The managers examined, laughed and decided to laugh again. Then they presented the material to the “toot ensemble,” and several precious practice periods were spent in listening to the melodious and otherwise “he hees,” “haw haws.” giggles, titters chortles, and guffaw’s. Then practice began in earnest and the fun was over. Finally every thing seemed to be going nicely. The choruses approached harmony, the jazz band was wearing out instruments practicing, the schoolroom group broke all the available furniture and scenery in the auditorium, trying to be realistic, the minstrels developed angina pectoris,” by striving to emulate the loose jointed mirth of the native son of Africa. Matters became serious. It was decided to stage the show on April 19, 20, 21. Ix ng before the days arrived, the reserved seats had been bought up. When the days finally arrived the hall was packed. There were old men who hadn't cracked a smile since they were married. There were elderly ladies who came to be shocked. There were youths and maidens of various stages of viridity who came to spend the evening. The curtain rose and heavenly sounds pealed forth filling the air of the auditorium and the ears of the spectators with auricular bliss. The applause which followed was reminiscent cf a barrage being laid “Over there.” The next number consisted of a banjo duet. The ushers compelled the people to remain in their seats since dancing was frowned upon by the college authorities. Anyhow it was Our Show. Then came the schoolroom scene. Giggles, chuckles, snorts, sobs, screams, yells and booming “haws” proved that the funny bones of the audience were functioning properly. Charley Klaus. Hank Schmitt. Red Beth, Riley and in fact all of the dramatis’ personae, were appreciated. Tommy Hughes and company next occupied the center of the stage. The impersonations were so well done that the spectators could hardly wait for the conclusion of each picture to applaud. Followed a “jazz” orchestra which moaned, bellowed, twangled and harmonized in the most jazzy fashion. Old men cried for more, the others thundered forth their acclamations. A ten minute interval was given which the crowd used up in drying their handerchiefs. Then came the Minstrel Show under the leadership of Prof. Gysbers. It had to be a success, and it was. The end men were exceedingly funny, the jokes hit with a resounding whack, and the audience could hardly stop laughing between them. Thus the show drew to a close. It was a screaming success and we hope the Monogram Club does the same thing next year. A. Spectator. 19 5 iujr One II inulrrl Six The Radio Class Progress has always been the motto of St. Norbcrt's. It is little wonder then, that the ever increasing hobby of Radio forced its way among the chief activities of the school. Shortly after Christmas recess a Radio Club was formed. At our disposal as a professor was Mr. Collom a proficient and talented electrician. Notable interest in this rapidly growing science was first evinced last fall by the students when they heard accounts of intercollegiate football games. At present about twenty have enrolled. They have been instructed in the rudimentary essentials of the study, and by the use of diagrams have learned the method of constructing receiving sets. To Father Van Dyke must be attri- buted much of the credit for fostering and for so firmly establishing the organization from its initial stage. He proved the most enthusiastic member, and it was due to him that the year held such encouraging prospects. Radio programs have already been arranged. In the musical numbers so far broadcasted, the college talent was principally represented by Professor Gysbers, Morgan Gareau, Prater James Wagner, B. Thompson, the orchestra, choir, and cjuartet. Ed. O’Brien and his Bungalow Orchestra, Misses Berenice and Bonita Haevcrs, all of Green Bay, were among the first representatives of outside talent to give their services. I'liijr Our llumlrr l Srrfii I'agc One Hundred Eight --------- :f—- THE DES FEEES Local College is Now Ready to Broadcast (Special from the DePcrc Journal-Democrat, April 9th.) The work of installing equipment has been finished, the official license to broadcast has been received from the government, and everything is now in readiness to begin radio broadcasting at St. Norbert’s College. A test program was given Sunday evening at 7:80, and very favorable reports were received from various quarters. The license is for a first class station and the call is WHBY. (Jcorge Carey, the athletic coach, has been selected as the official announcer. The right to broadcast at any time is granted in the license issued to the college. This license calls for first class musical entertainments and it follows that only the best instrumental and vocal music will be broadcasted in the programs. The transmitter has an input of 500 watts and an output of 100 watts. The Heising system of modulation with the speech am-phlifer with modified Hertley oscillation, is being used. The antenna consists of a four wire inverted L cage 18 inches in diameter. 60 feet long, supported by two steel masts on the roof of Boyle Hall; this is balanced by a ten wire counterpoise directly beneath the antenna in the basement. The transmitting night range is about 1000 miles. The tubes are lighted by alternating current. The voltage required for an ordinary receiving set is one-tenth of what is required of these tubes. The music is received from the college studio located in the main building, and transferred over telephone lines to the operating station on the fourth floor of Boyle Hall where it is put through a bank of amplifiers and then impressed upon the grids of the modulator tubes. This audio frequency current is then applied to the carrier wave which is being sent out by the oscillation tubes. The station fulfills the requirements of the government in being able to operate on 300 and 600 meters for use in time of national peril or distress signals which may be sent out by ships. The station is equipped with receiving sets that will immediately pick up messages that range from 20 to 25000 meters. The college is fortunate in receiving a license to operate at any time for a period of three months on a wave length of 250 meters. This license can be renewed at the expiration of the stipulated time, as the Department of Commerce does not issue a license to Class A stations for longer than three months, due to the congested condition of the air which requires constant shifting of wave lengths. The college authorities are desirous of having the public feel that they want to represent the community at large in the make-up of programs. The engineering staff will appreciate any comment from fans as to the quality of tone, so that they make necessary alternations to improve the reception and rectify defects in transmitting.

THE DES FERES Our Alumni With the publication of the 1925 Des Peres the Alumni of St. Norbert’s College can say in all truth that they have become an important part of their Alma Mater and a strong factor in her progress. Not only have they showed by their success in after life the value of a St. Norbert’s training, but they have always been ready to lend willing and valuable assistance to all her activities. The members of the 1924 championship football team have special reasons to remember them. Whether it was at the heart-breaking defeat by Lawrence College or the glorious homecoming victory against Platteville, the Alumni stood solidly behind the Green and White warriors until the final whistle. Then again it was through the generosity of the same Alumni that the football men banqueted so sumptuously at Cookies Inn. In addition to this each letter man has a permanent token of their appreciation in the shape of a gold football. The Alumni have aided in more than the athletic endeavors of the College. Upon hearing of the elevation of our President, Very Rev. Pennings, to the dignity of an Abbot, it was decided by the members of the organization to donate a new throne which the Abbot would use when he pontificates in his new office. It was a most fitting gift to Father Pennings who has in a very real sense been a father to every boy that has attended St. Norbert's. The Des Peres board too, must acknowledge the generosity of the Alumni towards their publication. f: Sixth Annual Homecoming The sixth annual homecoming of St. Norbert’s Alumni was held on October 25 and 26. For the first time the city of De Pere took active notice of the celebration. On the window of practically every merchant there was painted in an appropriate design of green and white, the words: “Welcome St. Norbert’s Alumni.” New American flags floated from poles set in the sidewalks along the business district and gave the city quite a festive appearance. A number of merchants had especially designed window displays which attracted considerable attention and served to spread the homecoming spirit. Our local newspaper, The De Pere Journal-Democrat, in its issue of October 23, ran an editorial on the front page which shows so explicitedly what St. Norbert’s and her homecoming means to the city, that we think fit to quote it here in its entirety: “The Journal-Democrat extends a sincere welcome to One Hundred Thirteen I'tujr Our Hundred Fourteen C; , THE DES FEFES Vv- — -- ■- = the Alumni of St. Norbert’s College on the occasion of their Annual Homecoming next Saturday, and we know that in extending this greeting we express the sentiment of the citizens of De Pere. Our people realize the value of St. Norbert's College to our city, not only from an educational standpoint, but also from a commercial, a financial point of view. We realize, too, that the benefits which De Pere derives from St. Norbert’s College, will increase and multiply as the institution branches out and widens its influence, as it is steadily and rapidly doing under the progressive policies. You, Alumni, deeply interested as you are in the future growth and development of your Alma Mater, are doing your part to spread the name and fame of St. Norbert’s and we want to assure you that the citizens of De Pere appreciate your efforts and stand ready to co-operate with you in a spirit of loyalty and helpfulness. A hearty, heartfelt welcome is therefore extended to the Alumni for next Saturday’s Homecoming with the wish that your short stay here may be a delightful one in every respect and may result in the strengthening of the ties of affection for St. Norbert’s as well as cementing more firmly the bonas of comradeship with your former classmates. The Journal-Democrat is at your service at all times.’’ The sixth annual homecoming meant more to St. Norbert’s and to her Alumni than it could ever mean to the city of De Pere. The first number on the program for the big homecoming was the Wisconsin College of Mines football game. The result of the game does not portray the relative strength of the teams. The Green and White warriors were spurred on to their seemingly superhuman ability by the knowledge that the “Old Grads” were on the sidelines mingling their voices with the peppy cheers. Many an Alumnus left the field of battle loudly praising St. Norbert’s for the progress she has experienced in her athletic endeavors. After the game the city streets seemed dead. However, ’twas but the calm before the storm. Soon, midst the blare of horns, and the blindery of beautiful lights, a monstrous parade, such as De Pere had never seen before, woke up the town. On every corner large numbers of students and Alumni collected and rent the evening air with loud cries for their late victory. Later in the evening a large crowd gathered to view the huge bon-fire. The crackling flames seemed to challenge the hundreds of spirited spectators. This section of the celebration included peppy speeches, spirited songs and yells. ■THE DES FERES I MI KSESS: )W I'ht following afternoon at the annual alumni meeting Dr. W. J. Frawley was re-elected president. The other re-elections were: Rev. M. J. McKeough recording secretary, and Rev. L. A. V. DeCleene, treasurer. Mr. Herbert E. McDonald of Chicago was elected vice-president and Mr. Omar Kiley of De Pere financial secretary. An unanimous vote pledged $200.00 to St. Norbert’s Athletic Association for the current year. At 6:30 the Alumni convened for the banquet. Everyone who knows George “Rings” Carr will have little difficulty in realizing that the toasting program was a grand success. After hearing a few witty remarks by the honorable toastmaster. .Rev. W. J. Millay gave the address of welcome. This was followed with hearty toasts by Revs. E. Lemieux, M. J. McKeough and Messrs. Wilfred Beaudoin, V. McCormick, H. McDonald and W. Entzimin-ger. Rev. A. J. Martins sang two beautiful songs in Spanish which drew very favorable comments. For an appetizer the assemblage sang the old favorite “Vive L’Amour.” The Alumni Association has been particularly honored during the past year by having three of its members raised to the dignity of the priesthood: Fathers Julius Xeault, Stephen Van Der Loop, and Paul Savageau. Father Van Der Loop is laboring at a parish in Essexville, Michigan. Fathers Xeault and Savageau have remained with the college faculty. The monthly News Letter published by Rev. M. J. McKeough and Frater Francis Clabots cannot be too highly praised for its part in developing the Alumni spirit to its present stage. Not only the Alumni but also the college students watch eagerly for its appearance for it contains all the activities of St. Norbert’s during the past month. The Alumni are to be congratulated upon the part they have played thus far in the progress of St. Norbert’s. but they must remember too. that the present is no time to rest on their laurels. St. Norbert’s has climbed a few steps on the ladder of success and whether she is to continue climbing this ladder depends to a great deal on the cooperation of her Alumni. Among the Alumni During the past year several important changes have been made among the Alumni: Rev. D. J.

' — fcivK i'i • ' f K' RETRIBUTION “Darn Buck Gallagher for this, anyway!” These words, issuing from the parched and swollen lips of “Slippery” Me Fee, did not at all possess the power which they usually implied. Me Fee was well nigh exhausted. For nearly two days he had been wandering in this rolling maze of sand hills, scorched by the searing rays of a merciless sun, nearly crazed for the lack of water which his entire system craved. “If Buck hadn’t been so foolish as to start a row—.” But Buck had “started a row,” and as a result of it he now lay in a crumpled, bloody heap on the floor of his cabin, while “Slippery” was suffering the torments of the damned in this blazing inferno of sand. High up in the heavens a lone vulture soared, watching, ever watching the struggles of the human speck below him. Suddenly the fugitive stopped and gazed incredulously into the distance. Before his wondering eyes stretched a strip of luscious green grass surrounding a silvery pond which dimpled and sparkled in the sunlight. Delirious with joy, McFee started at a stumbling trot toward the heavenly spot. The vulture, wise in the ways of the desert, began to circle downward. He swooped down farther still as the man tripped and fell, only to soar upward once more when the wretched fellow again staggered to his feet. The brook still beckoned, luring him the more swiftly to his doom. Suddenly before his horrified vision it began to dissolve. Where once had seemed to be a verdant growth nothing but the powdered sand was in evidence. Instead of a shimmering brook the death mask of his former friend Buck leered at him, mocking, sneering at his feeble struggle with Death. A sobbing groan, and McFee stumbled headlong to the sand. Once, twice, convulsive shudders stirred the dust about him. Then silence. Grimly, gracefully the ghoulish vulture settled on the sand beside him. Buck Gallagher had been avenged. A. S. MEMORIES Those college days! those college days! How many a time my memory strays To friends I’ve missed through long, sad years; I see them now through a mist of tears. Those happy days went quickly by, Like clouds across a windswept sky, And all too soon I left the care Of white-robed saints, who taught me there. By words of kindness, words of cheer.

Page One Hundred Thirty Give ear, dear friends and I'll revive A well known, happy story Of our dear Class of ’25, St. Norbert’s Star of Glory. From cities, hamlets, and the “sticks” They came to our great college; No dumb bells and no seedy hicks, But lads of wondrous knowledge. Some fast, some slow, some fat, some lean, Some lads with handsome faces; And mixed in nicely, close between The short ones filled the spaces. The Irish and the Dutch were there, The witty French and Germans, Their verbal battles filled the air With words unfit for sermons. We ate the beans and wished that hash Had never been invented: And often in a friendly clash The table-ware was dented. When there was nothing else to do We studied for diversion; And gladly to our Greek we turned Our minds in rapt excursion. At nine o'clock we went to bed And soon the sleepers' snoring Was loud enough to wake the dead, 'Twas like the ocean’s roaring. At six A. M. a bell’s, sharp ring Aroused us from our slumber, We felt like saying “Choke that thing”! It surely “had our number.” So passed those dear old college days So full of joy and gladness; And now when time for parting comes We can’t refrain from sadness. Lets give a cheer for our great class Now famed in song and story, The boys who never failed to pass; St. Norbert’s Star of Glory. E. P.

Page One Hundred Thirty-Fire THE DES FEFES KKWJC fVCiS3 THE VARSITY TRAVELS TO CHICAGO If one were to glance at the football records of St. Norbert's he would notice one line reading “St. Norbert’s 2, De Paul University 0, at Chicago.” To most observers the score and the names of the teams would be the important features of the writing, but the phrase “at Chicago” contains a long interesting story. In this chronicle an attempt will be made to expose the events, hitherto kept secret, which transpired on that Chicago trip. No doubt there will be many of the athletes of our school who will not enjoy reading this, but the majority of the students and all of the faculty will get a “kick” out of it. As Bernard Shaw, (or was it William Shakespeare?) says: “The secret of success is to cater to the wishes of the majority.” May the majority offer its protection to the writer. The journey to Chicago was to be made at night in a pullman car. About eleven o’clock all of the gridders were assembled in the sleeper, with the exception of a few “independent” day students. The early comers had, of course chosen the better berths, and for a time there was much bickering and squabbling about conflicting choices. This finally ceased and the boys more or less quietly prepared for bed. Little Harry Masse began to sniffle, large tears running down his cheeks, nor would he be comforted. He had figured on sleeping with Big Brother Ben, but the berth was far too narrow. He finally ceased sobbing after he had been told that he could leave his light burning. The silence that followed was broken by a shocked voice: “Holy Smokes gang look at Fox.” The young gentleman in question was seated on the edge of his berth, nonchalantly pulling on a pair of pink pajamas. After a moment of stunned surprise the entire squad swooped upon him, and finally succeeded in persuading him that it was not good form to display himself in pajamas on a football trip, especially if they happened to be pink. Quiet being once more secured, all returned to their berths and composed themselves for slumber. Their hopes for a peaceful night, however, received a serious set-back. Coach Carey was first to doze away. This fact in itself was fitting and proper, for a coach surely is entitled to more privileges than are his proteges, but when Mr. Carey took to sleeping seriously many of those present thought that he was overstepping his rights. The word “snore” is far too feeble to describe the sound issuing from his berth. It was a sort of a drawn out, monotone base, which, although it could make no pretensions to the musical, possessed a volume, and a peculiar richness cf tone which could not be denied. Al. Schwalbach, being used to sleeping on the job while firing on the Soo Ry. was the only member of the team whose sleep continued unbroken through the night. The train landed at Chicago about 7 A. M. Bernie McKeough suggested that Manager Ixmdo phone for several taxies, but on leaving the station we found that this was unnecessary. In some occult manner the taxi men had learned of our arrival and were present in a body to greet us: We went directly to the Auditorium Hotel. A bell boy came up and seized Stage’s traveling bag but Joe snatched it roughly back. “You can’t pull anything on us, buddy; we’ve heard all about you baggage snitchers down here. I’m plenty big enough to take care of my own grip.” After Jos. had been convinced that the m ■'-V) 3.S2S7C Pmjr One Hundred Thirty-Six m bell-hop's intentions had been sincere, the entire party proceeded to the dining room, for breakfast. At the end of the meal “Duke” Londo committed a faux pas which he never will be able to explain or forget. He ordered bananas, —he an athlete, calmly electing to consume a sizeable portion of this appetizing, but obstinate fruit, on the day of the big game. He has since offered a number of excuses for his act, perhaps the best of which was that he was trying to prove the fallacy of the late banana song. The time of the game finally rolled around. It will be unnecessary to give a detailed account of the battle, as you have perhaps already read it elsewhere. The most noteworthy feature of the game occurred when I ee Villiesse made a beautiful block of a De Paul punt—with his face. Returned to the dressing-room there was an unusual amount of care expended in dressing. Every neck-tie must be just so; shoes were given a hasty shine. Clyde Bunker, just then, was perhaps the most popular man on the squad, because he had in his possession a small tube of a certain gelatinous substance calculated to make one's hair lie down and “stay laid” smooth and glossy. Within a half hour the white lights of the city had swallowed up the team. What followed is mostly hearsay, and can only be proved by the guilty blushes of the various youths when certain topics are being discussed. Charley Ouradnik spent several hours looking for a certain George Smith who had once resided at Casco, but now lived in Chicago. His search, however, proved unavailing, although he asked a policeman and many pedestrians if they knew George Smith “who used to live in Casco.” Charley thinks the people of Chicago are terribly dumb. Some of them hadn’t even heard of Casco. Ben Masse, hitherto a model character, and “Dutch” Riley, usually an upstanding young gentleman, entered a downtown theatre and (I blush to write it) witnessed the “Greenwich Village Follies.” But the least said about this episode is already too much. After all had returned to De Pere an inventory of the bumps and bruises received at Chicago was taken. It proved to be an interesting study. Some of the boys were bunged up from the game, but a far greater number were suffering from stiff necks. “Puda” Schroeder and Charley Klaus had sore feet from standing on Michigan Boulevard while waiting for the traffic to stop until they could cross the street. Tommy Hughes had sore eyes, received, he claimed, by reading on the train. The rest of the varsity were also suffering from one or other forms of “cityitis” and the wild alibis explaining them were wonderful to hear. All, however, were in hearty sympathy with the sentiments expressed in “John Wise’s” well known song: “I just got back from a great big town, Where I'd never been before. I haven’t as much money as I had when I left But I know a whole lot more.” A. S.

I sailed aloft to Heaven’s door, Where good St. Peter stood; And chatted with the men of yore, The things they said were good. He said to me, “Who goe’st there?” I said, “You’ll have to guess; I’m lost alone, I don’t know where. Who got me in this mess.” He said, “My lad I know you now, Your life on earth was fine; And soon as Felton milks the cow, We’ll walk right in and dine. He hardly said these things to me. When Miron rang the bell; A rush, a roar I said, “Oh gee, They make less noise in hell. I listened and I walked aside, I knew I’d miss my share; For years ago, ten boarders died, And two of them were there. They never eat their fill I learned, Their duties sure abound; They mine the coal the devils burn, And push the clouds around. Among the workmen whom I found, Was Reemster six feet seven; He says a good man can’t be downed, He’s milkman up in heaven. And Paul Muldoon in Cupid’s clothes, Tripped lightly here and there: He carried arrows and some bows, And tries to make a pair.

McDonnell was a poet tough, To put his thoughts in verse; But Fritz Van Zeeland sang this stuir, To make the matter worse. I strolled among the gardens fair, When someone called out, “Stop!” And then from out the empty air, Dropped Collom with a flop. We stood and chatted for a day, Till Staffney popped in view; I was surprised I truly say, To see him up there too. St. Peter came in wildest rage, With Golden by the ear; He locked him in a shiny cage, For quite a while, I fear. At last I found out what was wrong, Droog told me this at noon; The earth had night four times too long, Cause Jake wPn’t push the moon. Sromovsky was the heaven's guide He gathered all the rent; He opened Heaven’s portals wide, To Hades we were sent. Clyde Bunker came along to hell, To play a foot ball game; When Sheahan slipped and in he fell, But that was all the same. '« • One llnmlrrl Forly-Firc - .

The game was tight I do declare, Without old rules and laws; Hollister stopped the game right there, For fire was the cause. But Gallagher said, “You crazy man, Its cold enough to snow; Just try and stop me if you can, Then I will skating go. Then Satan cried, “Without a doubt, It's plain you can't agree; So pack your trunk, and now get out, But Goodchild stays with me! N. S. Page One Hundred party-Six Dr. Eugene S.

WISCONSIN l‘ tgf Our Hundred Forty- Sine CABBAGE FIELDS IN WINTER Fellow Members of the Isaac Walton League: It gives me great pleasure to bring to your attention a nefarious practice common among our rural residents, a practice so harmful, so devastating, that I fear in time it may be the source of more discomfort, of more ills than even the pollution of our beautiful streams by sewer and papermills, namely the practice of leaving cabbage stalks in the ground during the winter time. I have nothing against cabbage itself gentlemen, in fact I consider it a very palatable food whether boiled, creamed, fried or as sauerkraut. Furthermore there is nowhere to be found a more beautiful sight than a field of bright green cabbages in the summertime. But that isn’t the question. My purpose is not to discourse on the value of cabbage as a food, or the pleasing appearance of a cabbage field in the summer. I am here to reveal the abominable condition of a cabbage field in winter. Think of the danger to the sportsman who perchance finds he must cross a cabbage field to trail a deer or a moose. Think how easily he might sprain an ankle or break a leg by stumbling against these damnable cabbage-stalks, and if he should chance to have corns or bunions on his feet imagine the pain, if you can, he would suffer from this unavoidable contact with these stalks. And reflect upon the advantage the deer would have because of the slow progress the sportsman makes when traversing these pesky fields. And if this doesn’t convince you of the seriousness of the case think of the severe strain on our delicate nostrils. Fellow Waltonians, I would sooner meet a skunk than cross a cabbage field in winter. So now in conclusion I advise you to see your Congressman about this. Demand that he introduce a law forcing the farmers to pull their cabbage stalks in the fall and to spray the fields with toilet water. I thank you, Ben Masse, Jr. AUTUMN ’Tis autumn, and fair Nature seems to love To linger near the hills of ancient Rome; To paint the trees, the vales, and sky above, Which seems to rest on grand St. Peter’s dome. Her richest colors tint with master hand The grape, the cypress, and the lofty pine, While peasants toiling the vineyard stand And marvel at each beauteous hue and line. High overhead, the clouds, like frightened sheep, Seem hastening to the spot where earth meets sky, And in the distance lofty mountains keep Their virgil o’er the peaceful valley nigh. This wondrous scene, so simple yet so grand, God's masterpiece, the work of His Own Hand. E. P. McD. Page. One Hundred Fifty HERB J. SMITH FRED M.

THE TRUTH REGARDING MARRIED LIFE They were wedded by the pastor and they didn’t live happily thereafter. Mildred Boungartner was a school teacher, a good teacher as teachers go, and I must say this for Mildred; she was one of the few teachers that you could really call human. Henry Willie, usually called Heinie,” was the son of a humble, ’though very fat, locktender. Heinie was one of these fellows who always made sure that they don't develop an athletic heart, and so do not exert themselves at all. Up to the time of their wedding, Heinie’s most strenuous work was catching snapping turtles for his poor old mother to clean and cook in order that he might partake of his favorite potion—turtle soup. In short, Heinie followed the path of least resistance. Simon, Heinie’s brother and Heinie had both been courting the fair Mildred for some time. When Heinie announced his engagement, Simon took his defeat philosopically, but secretly devised a scheme to arouse Heinie’s anger. He asked Heinie if he could be the best man the day of the wedding. Heinie, seeing a chance to restore amiable relations readily consented. Little did Heinie reckon what his brother’s true intent was. The day of the wedding Heinie and Mildred were marching out of the church, and had reached the vestibule when Simon rushed forward, said in a calm voice The best man’s privilege,” and kissed Mildred squarely upon the place intended by the good Lora for osculatory purposes. Before the wedding feast was over Simon departed from his brother, who was in an angry mood. During the next twenty years Mildred taught school and Heinie sat at home. In the summer he sat in the parlor chewing and smoking, and at the same time, perhaps, reading a paper, while at regular intervals he spat into the flower pots. Mildred warned and admonished him, she even bought him a cuspidor, but all to no avail; he still persisted in spitting in the flower pots and the nicotine killed Mildred’s beautiful flowers.

DE PERE. WISCONSIN The Truth Regarding Married Life (continued) During the winter months he was to be found sitting in the living room beside the heater, reading, his feet resting on a convenient trimming, in his dirty hands holding a paper, while from time to time a yellow stream of tobacco juice burst forth from his mouth and landed sizzling against the side of the hot stove. As he listened to the sizzling potion, and his mouth broadened out into a wide grin his eyes danced with pleasure. This was real sport. When Mildred came home she would take the butcher knife and cut a nice, large square from the plug of tobacco and bring him a handful of matches with which to light his pipe. Heinie never argues or disagrees with her, that requires too much energy. He never even did so much as to fire the stove while she was away earning his tobacco and matches. The only fault Mildred had ever found with him was his habit of putting an old, chewed quid of tabacco in his pocket to chew at some later time; but luck was destined to break, and it broke him. One day Mildred came home from school and wanted Heinie to go to a Shakes-perian play. Heinie didn't know whether Shakespeare was a juggler or a fish peddler and he cared little, still Mildred persisted in trying to induce him to go. At length he cried out in disgust, “My brother used to be good enough for you, why don't you go with him now? Time heals slowly, and never heals completely. It had not cured Heinie’s bitterness toward his brother, and when Mildred replied “All right, I will, he found that time could not efface the bitter memory of his brother’s trickery. Heinie had now grown old and corpulent; twenty years loafing had added twenty inches to his waist line. He had also grown weaker and perhaps wiser. He possessed only one shirt, a white one, which he wore from day to day. He had grown so weak, in fact, that he could no longer give sufficient momentum to his spittle to carry it past his white shirt. As a result, Heinie went to bed every night while Mildred, kind old soul, washed his stained garment. Mulford Clothing Company 115 E. Second Street KAUKAUNA, WISCONSIN 'age One Hundred Sizly-Tico ST.

Broadway GREEN BAY, WISCONSIN The Truth Regarding Married Life (Concluded) But tonight all was changed; his shirt was still dirty and wet from tobacco juice and Mildred was gone—gone with his brother. That night when Simon and Mildred came home, an officer in uniform met them at the door and informed her that Heinie had started suit for divorce and that she was to appear in court three months later if she wished to contest the case. “Huh! she snorted, “Where could that thing get enough money to fight a case? The next morning Heinie went to work. His spirit was willing, but his flesh was indeed weak. The first two days he found it almost impossible to keep up with the rest of the crew of cleaners. Still, he stuck and worked, determined to show Mildred that he was not what she thought, a loafer. For two months and fourteen days he worked; but at the end of that time he was willing to admit that it was wiser to let Mildred make his living, so far as he was concerned. So two months and fourteen days were passed. Heinie returned to his home, a sadder and a wiser man, dropped the case, restored good feeling between himself and his brother and was content to live the same old ambitionless life that he had lived for twenty years. And now you may gaze in through the window any night and see Heinie sitting between two figures; the one is Mildred, the other Simon, constantly smoking his pipe or chewing his quid, reading a paper, spitting on the hot stove, listening to the sizzling spittle and smiling as he does so.

It's not in Greece or Italy, Nor far away as Nome, It’s just the College where you go The school you call your own. Be always glad to praise it up No matter where you are; Be ready to defend its name And spread it near and far, And when you hear some knockers knock Respond at every rap: “The School where I am going, Is the best One on the Map.’’ I know it is a tiny spot, Old fashioned, quaint and old; But every tree and leaf and shrub Reveals the hand of God. So when some fellow comes along And gives the place a “whack” I feel like telling him to go, And never more come back: Because ’tis much too good a spot To harbor such a chap. “The School where I am going Is the Best One on the Map.” If any school which you attend Is backward, dull or slow, Why don’t you try the boosting plan, And help to make it grow? 'Tis little use to vilify, To kick and play the fool Such antics never made a school. If you would have your school become, A famous, growing mark, Just put your shoulder to the wheel And help it get a start, And let this little motto be Enshrined beneath your cap, “The school where I am going Is the Best One on the Map.” H.

Not a whisper, not a murmur rose from the lips of even one of the two hundred students there assembled. Even Hasten held his silence. “Bill” Riley had discarded his magazine and was studying geometry. Not an apple core, not an inky cork whizzed thru the air. Quigley wasn't impersonating a song-bird. Hondo wasn’t toying with a balloon. Cash-man wasn’t signalling across the room and Traeger wasn’t getting in his way in order to prevent the signals from being seen. Butler wasn’t sharpening his ever-dull pencil. “Puta” Schroeder wasn’t reading “College Comics.” Not a whisper not a murmur, not a sound—only silence, and every student was studying. As Father Van Dyke looked down from his desk a smile of approval flitted across his face. “Surely,” he thought, “1 must be dreaming!” He was. When he awoke he heard mumbles, whispers and exclamations rising from a hundred throats, the whizzing of apple cores and stale buns thru the air and the twittering notes of the meadow lark rising from the lips of Robert Quigley. “Bill” Riley was solving an unsolvable cross-word puzzle. Cashman was waving his arms in a frantic effort to attract someone’s attention and then, just as he had spelled out a few words in the deaf and dumb alphabet, Traeger lunge-.i to one side and the message remained undelivered. Butler was beside him, grinding away at his pencil. “Puta Schroeder, his feet resting on the desk across from him, had stretched out and was chuckling to himself as he read “College Comics,” Whispers there were a plenty. Father Van Dyke shook his head sadly as he jotted down the names of a few students whom he was desirous of seeing at four o’clock. Then a light hand was placed on my shoulder. I sat up with a start and looked directly into the beaming eyes of Father Van Dyke. I had dreamed a dream. A. E. G. Our Senior High 0! what a jolly bunch we’ve been In our dear Senior High! We laughed and sang from morn till night. 0! how the hours did fly! Each day went by too speedily; I’m sure to this you’ll all agree. We’ve borne our many strifes and trials Throughout this joyful year Not one of us were ever blue Or showed a mortal fear When luck went wrong, and we were caught In escapades we freely sought. And now that we've successful been And have a master mind, Our Alma Mater to forget I’m sure 'twould be unkind. For she has been our friend in need And helped us in this life succeed. F. J.

A group of old timers like myself, sport writers, managers and hangers-on were gathering in the lobby of our hotel to swap yarns, as was our custom. When I got there Old Matt Hinkel was crating, “Yes boys I’ve seen some queer doin's in my day and the queerest of them all was my experience with ‘Dummy’ Wilson. You remember Wilson don’t you? How he swept through the welters like a Kansas Tornado and then retired at the height of his career? Well I do and always will for I was managin’ him at the time and his retirement just cost me a couple hundred grand or so. Ah yes, I remember it well. Perhaps you’ve never heard the story, I mean about why he quit. It’s a little long but be patient with me and I’ll give it to you even though it pains me to do so. “I was running a gymnasium over on Sixteenth Ave. at the time. One day a nice looking young fellow hepped off a drayin’ truck and entered my place. Right away I was impressed not only by his build but by the springy way he walked. He sailed right up to me and handed me a slip of paper. It went something like this. Mr. Hinkel: I should like to take up the boxing game and have heard that you give a tryout to every young fellow who applies. I am unable to hear or speak but trust this handicap will net prevent me from receiving a chance . I read it over two or three times to be sure I wasn't dreaming. A deaf mute in the ring. I couldn’t comprehend it but then, why not? I could signal him in some way when the gong would ring and as for the referee’s instruction, why they could be written. Well I decided to give him a chance. K. 0. Brown, my crack middle weight, happened to be trainin' for a fight so I called him over. They put on the gloves and went to it. I turned to answer the telephone and during the course of my conversation I heard the double impact of gloves on flesh. K. O’s. probably given him the one-two I thought and went back to stop the slaughter. I got there just in time. A few more socks and K. O. would have to start trainin’ all over. The kid had him bleedin’ and cut all over. He looked at me with a puzzled expression and I couldn’t help but roar. We signed the contract then and there. His name was Wilson and K. O. added the ‘Dummy.’ “When the bubble burst ‘Dummy’ just couldn’t put his mind on his work and quickly went from bad to worse. A week before the fight I cornered him and made him confess. I had a suspicion it was a woman and of course I was right. When a man goes wrong in boxing, baseball business or anything else, its a safe bet that nine times cut of ten. a woman’s the cause of it. It seems that when ‘Dummy’ was finishin’ at Princeton the accident happened that robbed him of his speech and heaving ‘Dummy’ was taking his girl home from the prom in his car and as luck would have it he was in a smashup. They both escaped injury in some way but ‘Dummy’ couldn’t speak or hear. I suppose the shock did it. Anyway the old man, who by the way only happened to be John J. Wilson, the safety Jim king, blamed it all on the girl and commanded ‘Dummy’ to sever all connections. ‘Dummy’ wouldn’t stand for it and proceeded to marry her. He’d never crossed the threshhold of his ancestral home since. He got a job drivin’ truck but wasn’t makin’ much money. Having held the inter collegiate welter weight title he decided to take a fling at the fight (Continue ! | ;iKe 205) I'mjc Tiro 11 mill ml Three E. X.

Everything was smooth sailing till his family started to pick on his wife. They told her how she was robbin’ him of his birthright and all that kind of bosh and pretty soon she was ready to quit. ‘Dummy’ was ravin’ mad when he heard about it and went downtown to the old man’s office and in the presence of his whole office force gave him a terrific rakin’ over the coals. The old gent sure was flabbergasted. “That’s the way things stood the night of the fight. I engineered it so ‘Dummy’s’ wife was there. I figured her presence might help him. Just before the gong rang I saw John J. himself just two seats away from ‘Dummy’s’ wife. “The fight started and I didn’t have any time for speculations. For three rounds Jerry knocked ‘Dummy’ all over. His wise cracks were audible to the ringside spectators and I noticed ‘Dummy’s’ wife weeping. John J. saw her too and I guess he must have been cut up pretty much because of the beating his son was taking for I saw him lean over and comfort her. Then it happened. McGovern shot a terrific right to ‘Dummy’s’ ears and ‘Dummy’ went down. I saw he wasn’t out and motioned him to get up. I saw him move his jaws and then he hissed, ‘Heh, Matt I can hear again.’ Up he got and then from behind me I heard John J., ‘Knock hell out of him ‘Con,’ or I’ll disown you.’ Wow! You should have seen him go. The fight ended right then and there. Before I could do a thing ‘Dummy’ hops over the ropes and he, the old man. the girl, and I, hugged each other and acted like madmen. “Well, that’s about all. The next day ‘Dummy’ and his wife shifted their residence and‘Dummy’became assistant manager of the factory. ‘Dummy’ had fought his last battle.” B.

I hadn’t no more got inside than all the girls in the joint was eyein’ me up; seein’ as how I was gettin’ so popular right at the start I takes out my tobaccy quid an’ puts it in my pocket, it was purty fresh to throw away, and I didn’t want to waste it. Well, after I sees all these agog ’bout me I thinks “well, I may as well roll’round with one of ’em’, so I gets myself a pair of rollers and rolled over to where a peach was a-standin’, Powderin’ her nose. We got started out onto that floor an’ everything went 0. K. for the first couple of rods, an’ then we came to a corner. Somehow or another when we was tryin’ to make that corner my skates kept slidin’ out from under me and pretty soon they slid way out. I flops down like a ton o’ brick an’ she stumbles over my foot. As she was cornin' down I notices her hair, just as brown as the corn-silk Bill an’ me used to smoke; an’ her eyes was like two chocolate drops what’s been left out in the sun; her lips was just as red an’ sweet looking as the cherries what grow on that tree behind the hen-coop, and then—BANG!
