L.l. S 1 1 1 .?- I-LJ 1 Z LJ- s we near the completion of our school life at St. Paulis we, the members of the Senior Class, present our yearbook, the record of our achievements, in an endeavor to equal and to surpass, if possible, the standards set by the preceding classes. If our aim has been successful, we sincerely hope that in future years the 1941 Sigillum will rekindle the lasting memories of friendships formed and pleasures enjoyed by the Senior Class in their years at St. Paulis. C I TO ERNEST E. SMITH Who has taught many teams, both athletic and scholastic, to win fairly and to lose sportingly. Who for twenty-eight years has been the head of the History Depart- ment at St. Paulis. Who retired as coach of varsity sports some years ago to become Athletic Director but who couldnit retire his love of baseball and so may be seen on the diamond each season coaching the jay Vee in the fine points of the game. WE DEDICATE THIS BOOK The annual Sigillum is a record not only of things past but of things to come. As such it has a definite place in the life of St. Paul's School. A great many times questions have been asked as to characteristics of alumni and qualities which make the alumni valuable in life. The answers to these questions can he found in such a book as this. There- fore, the Sigillum should he welcome in the homes of the patrons of St. Paulis School, not only for what it says but for the omissions also. All told, if faithfully preserved, the Sigillum will be a valuable book. WALTER R. MARSH f t 4 f W ,r ' , f 5' ,1 I. ' ffff' . xv X 'Ni I Fai ' in fi. if!

Everything seems to happen to the Benitos. It wasn't so had when a certain master interrupted his scientific experiment in chemistry. lt was sort ot startling when, after a pleasant stay in Pennsylvania, he found that the darn Geographers had moved that state a few hun- dred miles away from New York. But when the lamp post ran into his car-that was too much! You've had tough luck, Bob, but keep trying.

Yes, when the school floors creak and the walls rock, we know that Chas. and Ctink are roughing it up again. At heart, though, Charlie is really a scholar, as is shown by the interest he takes every morning to be sure his friends have done their homework properly- for him. Still, no mater how you consider him-chubby or chucky-you can't help liking this comfortably plump son of Saint Paul's. v I I SINVNHH 01 S 11396 .PAULS SCHOOL , ..... ...,, 07, -Int , 5' ?

The old order changeth, yielding to the new seems to be Ray's philosophy, and he carries it out in his astounding theories, which will surely change the set-up of things that are. Donlt get the idea that Ray is a Iilllc scatterbrained, for he isn't-a little. llc is our champion fender bender and iuggernaut of the highways, so he says, and one of the best of Span- ish athletes. Nevertheless, Ray will surely settle down and when he does something is bound to happen, for he is one of the brainiest guys we know. I uqe fourteen JOHN C.

Our idea of the typical Senior Council man, he has proved to be just that, to the woes of some. Indeed, he seems to do everything well, as you would know if you had ever seen him playing on the gridiron, court or diamond. As for his studies, he even does those well. lt must be because he's in love and remaining true to the little girl back home. That seems to be the only possible solution!

Varsity Football '40, League Basketball '39, '40, '41, Varsity Baseball '40, '41, C-lee Club '39. Captain of that famous league basketball team, Frostie's Flops, Henry, as everyone will agree, is one of the best. Occasionally, he finds studies a terrible bore. No, he isn't dumb! He just has so many extra- curricular activities. Not every boy can boast an aver- age of three admiring onlookers a day to watch him practice football or baseball. Oh, to be a captain! Some people believe he should be dubbed king of the library, for it is a treat to hear the stories he tells while he is studying OJ there.

This youth is dedicated to all the members of the fair sex, and to them we present Fredric Ciddings, better known as Hoibie , who is the most bashful thing on two feet, a fact which may be a blessing in disguise. For some months Hoib has been looking for an easy college to attend. Why, we don't know, for he is one of our honor students Cmay Allah bless 'emJ.

Believe us, it's a good thing Jud can take a joke Cand he does have a sense of humor despite his serious lookj, for if he couldn't, there would be many a skull cracked by this mass of brawn.

Pinnochio, as he is called affectionately by his class- mates, is one of the prize members of our class. He is not only Senior Monitor, but occasionally he surprises even himself by getting on the honor roll. He has also mastered the lost art of changing classes while sleep- ing, at least it appears that way. Nevertheless, if you want any odd jobs done, such as lowering the school flag at ten o'clock at night, just go see Freddy, for to oblige is his motto. Pam.

Ellery would prob- ably be one of our highest ranking students if there were no cars, no parties, and none of the fairer sex in this world. Should you be strolling down Cathedral Avenue some day and see a grinning fellow in a Lincoln Zephyr streak by you and turn into a driveway just two jumps ahead of a host of pursuing little white cars, don't be alarmed. lt will only be El playing tag with the cops. 15,1545 Qyfgriiecctcgkgg-'fb N is EEE , wg 6 1, sa gi i J I 22,-.,.EL:4:'.t:p':4',.-got .

Usually it's iust too much effort. We'll be seeing you around, Bob! Although he has only been with us a year, his good nature and ready wit have made him many friends.

This seems to be his main ambition in life. Though the Romance languages are his weakness, he cuts a mean figure in athletics, for he is a three-letter man and has earned each one of them.

He's an old cowhand from the corner drug-store. He likes chocolate sodas, but girls even more. Yes, here is a real plainsman from old Kentucky, a true Boone to the school. George has indeed gained fame by making stooging a profession, yes, even an art, by contributing inside dope to S. 8: S. Still George is a lovable soul and his cherubic smile will certainly win over all West Point if some mean, nasty, old upper classman doesn't become impertinent to him and cause him to have a stroke of apople-high blood pressure.

Page' Twenty-Tive FUTURAMA-CLASS UF '41 The members of the class of '41 have trod many and divers paths in their twenty years of progress QD since first they left St. Paul's, but they still retain certain characteristics which helped to dis or extinguish them at their Alma Mater. For instance, Herbie Giddings was just put on trial for polygamous polygamy when twenty-six women each claimed to be his one and only law- fully wedded wife. They were all proved to be wrong, however, when wife No. 27 appeared. Other St. Paulites have done quite well in other fields also. Ray Burkland made a million dollars two years ago when he cornered the bull market. After seventeen consecutive setbacks, jimmy Syverson finally managed to hobble around the court without tripping on his long white beard, to win the National Veterans Tennis Champion- ship in that beautiful little town of Forest Hills. But, let's take a look at the newspaper. On the sports page the headlines read jack Comerford passed two hundred yards for a double touchdown to enable Oleary's Oilers to beat C-insbergis Gar- agemen, 12f1O. We must hurry on, however, for I just can't wait to turn to Peeking Perryis gossip column. West Point lost a valuable secret-service man when it told George he ought to be a traffic light Cwhen he blushedD. Ah, there it is! I.et's see what he has to say: When we interviewed Mr. john McKeon, noted bug exterminator, about his business, he said, quote, 'It's a creepy'. Unfortunately your snooper has not been able to get anything on 'Tubby' Washburn, head of the Tubbs' Laundry, as he has been living a very clean life. But rumor hath it that the notorious city slicker, Ellery, will soon publish his own autobiography entitled 'Mann about town'. Furthermore, that juggling gigolo and entrancing entertainer, Bob Miles, was last seen Page Twenty-Six attired as a Tahitian, crooning in a Hawaiian Night Club. He explained, 'I always have wanted to go native'. But, enough of that drool! just listen! Canit you recognize the tune? She'll be comin' round the mountain when she comes. Well, if it isn't Granpappie Thompson, the hoary headed hill-billy! How's your Apple-jack? Purty corny, young feller, purty corny! Why, there's smiling Charlie, the Pullman por- ter, coming up the street. Charlie, what has hap- pened to you? Wal, it wuzz dis way. Ah stooded too long under de boss's sunlamp and it done turn'd me Brown. Horrors! But, Charlie, now that I think of it, what is your favorite orchestra? Fav-o-rite o-cas-trie? Dat's easy! Perry Wil- liams and his rubber band. Have you done heard Perry's latest derangement-Deep Vi-o-let? Yikes! He's still playing it after these twenty years. Six lessons from Madam Tourangeauf' Well, here we are at the dancing school of Al and his wife. There's Al himself teaching three of the most adorable little cherubs and-and Mon- sieur Mitchell, that famous hair dresser of the Kiss Me Sweet Beauty Salon. It has been his privilege to improvise that super swell swirl for Madam's Coiffure. And, goodness, of all places to meet Jud Cvoodspeed! What are you doing here, Jud? Practicing up my ballet dancing. One, two, three, pirouette!-It has become my favorite pas- time-two, three, pirouette!-It keeps me down to 4 slim 400 pounds and in condition for my career at the 42nd Street Bellucci's Frisky French Follies. Bob, you know, bought out Minski several years ago, and the secret of his success lies in the fact that he takes such a deep personal interest in his business. Have you heard anything of Dick Morse? Two, three, umph, pirouette! Yes, he has been elected Mayor of the absolutely, positively, guar- anteed largest city in the whole United States. New York? No! Ellsworth, Maine I That's not the largest city in the United States. Maybe not by population, son, but it is by area. Have you heard about the wonderful comeback of Frost's Flops. Flops? Basketball team? No, pinochle team. However, they still have that old fight. What do you say we go over to Smiley Ed Regnell's Tavern and get a couple of lemonades. Lemonades? At Regnell's place? Yes! You know Ed has a pretty swell joint here on the Bowery. That's where Boss Brandenburg's political machine hangs out. The machine often stalls, but it will never run out of gas with Bran- denburg around. Ed's O. K. just you wait till it gets going. I-Ie'll out-Tweed Tweed and Croker, too. Bang, Crash, Wham-what a fight! Better call for Hogan, Regnell's star professional bouncer. Sniff, sniff-Fair and Warmer-not bad look- ing either. Snuff, Snuff-Fair and Warmer? Say, Jud, is that fellow a wolf or just stuck up? No, no! You don't mean to tell me you don't recognize Kreuscher. I-Ie's a professional weather sniffer. He can smell a storm 500 miles away. I don't think he smells so good. But I thought Fred was working in a garage. At quite a novel job, too, for he at last found a place for his hot air-inflating tires. I-Iave you heard anything more about that ace midget auto racer, our friend, Tom? Why, yes. He's sure making dough now-he's a Baker. Well, I guess that covers everybody except Bill Bennett. Let me tell you about him. What's he doing? ' Doing? Ah, you guessed it. He's assistant-to the assistant-to the assistant Professor of Latin at Saint Paul's and is he happy now! Mr. Tanner has just promised to let him read a copy of Ars Amatoriaf' Page Twenty-Seven THE CLASS THE cLAss Vmlz' Vxvwxlv hglvl Now let us for a moment gaze upon and consider next year's seniors, the class of 1942. They have distinguished themselves in almost every field-ath- letic, scholastic, and social. Boehm, l-larstedt, Moore, E. Rahe, and Lltz are the most renowned of the class athletes. Barrett, Hiergesell, with Boehm and E. Rahe again, provide honor roll grades, while a goodly number of boys are most always found at social gatherings. Wise fools! At least that is the trans- lation of the word sophomores from the Greek. Surely the whole literal meaning may be applied to this class of 1943. Wise they are-in regard to studies. The monthly honor roll includes such names as Cameron, Elliot, D. Griffin, Neumann, and R. Rahe. As for sports, on the varsities, leagues, and j. V. teams, Clemmer, Finch, Farrington, Harris, and R. Rahe have more than once displayed their ability. Eagerness and high spirit characterize this class of '42, Startling, almost unbe- lievable tales have reached our ears re- garding the exploits of some of these Fifth Formers, as a result of which sup- pression by the sedate seniors has had to be frequently forced upon them. Nev- ertheless, let us hope that they may prove themselves noteworthy seniors next year. Now, as for fools, they certainly have a fine crop of them also, but we refrain from naming them through lack of space only, not from consideration. In addition, a word about David Elliott, the English lad, who in his first year in America has told us much of his native country. Everyone's friend, David always seems to be in a hurry, some- thing most Americans cannot quite rec- oncile with their ideas of an English- man. Page U'wenty-Wine THE CLASS THE Lnwfn fklm' Vlvnlv I The freshmen, whom the upper class- men regard as the lowest form of animal life, 'wee beasties', have displayed themselves to be somewhat frivolous and fun-loving. But, even at their tender age these lounge lizards do show ability in regard to studies, as Albrecht, Cum- mings, Hardie, and j. Wynn have proved by their honor roll marks. Most of them find athletics an outlet The Lower School as usual is filled with a never ceasing supply of school spirit. If ever a cheering section is wanted, here it may be found. Nor are the lower schoolers deficient athletically or scholastically, for they are well represented on the honor roll and in sports. Any afternoon they may be found, under the supervision of a mas- ter, hard at work at football, soccer, basketball, boxing, baseball, and tennis. Many outstanding achievements through the course of the year have also 44 for their love of rough-housing, for the class, almost to a man, is usually found out for every league team. Albrecht, Far- rington, Nason, Smith, Vanden Heuvel, and Wynn are outstanding here. Before, we referred to this group as lounge lizards, and rightly, too. Rarely is there a dance, a tea, or any other kind of social function that this group is not there en masse. been accomplished in manual training and photography. Envious indeed are the upper classes of the Lower School's frequent trips, which help to increase the scope of their knowledge. These numer- ous trips afield, excursions to the city, and outdoor roasts help to keep that effervescent spirit at its high level. So, with light hearts the Senior Class looks into the future, rejoicing that soon the life's blood of the school is to be re- newed with the vigor and vitality con- tained herein. Page Thirty-One ST. PAUl'S SIIHUUL i T SENIOR COUNCIL O F F I C E R S PERRY W1I.I.lAMs, Clmirlmm EDVUIN BRANDENBURG jo:-IN COMIERIIORD MANLIQY Coonsmaiso joim MCKl3oN FREDERICK KREUSCHER Early in the First term the Senior Council was elected by the Senior Class. The Council, whose function in former years has been to promote school spirit and aid in the government of the stu- dent body, has taken a more active course this year and undertaken, in ad- dition to the old, some new assign- ments. These are mainly: to keep the Pa qc Thirty-Tour library open during all the morning periods, to maintain order in the Senior Common Room, to preside over the study hall in the absence of a master, to prohibit smoking in the school, to pro- hibit the destruction of school property, to encourage school spirit, and to en- force cleanliness in and about the school. THE SIGILLUM STAFF... All through the first term and through a great part of the second, the seniors talked about publishing a 1941 Sigillum, but never did they do any more than just that-tulle. Finally, however, a concen- tration of opinion forced the class to call a meeting to thresh out the question. After all the arguments had been put forth, the seniors voted almost unani- mously to attempt the publication of a yearbook. Thus the l94I Sigillum was born, im- mediately the heat and fever of the work began. The brief time left to accomplish the work necessitated continuous grind- ing. However, the book slowly assumed shape until this, the complete work, was submitted to the printer. Now the staff slumps back to review it, weary, but proud of the fact that it has come through despite the hardships on every side. hlilor in fflvicl . . .,,.....

Page Thirty SCIVUI -N el VARSITY TEAM Although not as brilliant as many of its predecessors, the football season certainly has its share of thrills and excitement. The boys, reporting two days before school opened, immediately started to work out their summer softness under the watchful eye of Coach Haire and Assistant Coach C. W. Smith. It was soon apparent that the Saints had a tower of strength in the passing ability of jack Comerford, Big Dick Morse's plunging from the full-back position was also an excellent offen- sive punch, while the two fleet, shifty halfvbacks, Eddie Regnell and Dick Rainey, promised to be hard men to stop. Henry Frost, the captain, was the only veteran in the line from the previous year, and from hfs end position strengthened by his experience his new line of jack Lyons and jud Cvoodspeed at the tackles, Ted Utz and Perry Williaitis at the guards, Tubby Wash- burn at the center spot and Al Tourangeau, who occupied the other end position. The Saints then prepared for their first game, which came on a hot September day. A strong Hofstra Frosh team journeyed to St. Paul's, determined to do or die. For the lirst half the Saints pushed Hofstra around almost at will and it looked as though they would be too tough for the freshmen. Comerford to Regnell seemed to be the key to the attack, and again and again Page Thirty-Eight the Saints marched almost to the goal line, only to be held or penalized as results of their overeagerness. The second half again found a tired Saint eleven fighting stubbornly down the held, only to be foiled by penalties. Once more a Hofstra pass and conversion clicked to make the score 14-U, and thus the game ended. The next week a fighting Newark team came to St, Paul's and everyone knew a good battle was in store. From the opening whistle an en- raged Saint's team hammered at the Newark defense. The Comerford to Regnell combination went to work, and soon the scoreboard showed 6-0 in favor of the Saints, due to Regnell's beau- tiful catch over the goal-line. The conversion failed and the half ended with no further score. The second half proved to be a period of thrills and breaks which kept everyone on edge, but no further scoring was made and the game ended with the Saints victorious, 610. Adelphi was the next opponent, and St. Paul's traveled to Adelphi for the game. The Saints faced a scrappy, light team which not only knew all the tricks but also when to pull them. Again and again St. Paul's marched down the field, only to be held from scoring, This proved to be a fateful day for the Saints, for soon after the kickoff big jack Lyons, left tackle, had to be taken out as the result of a FUUT leg iniury. Then an Adelphi pass connected and the Saints dropped behind, 6-0. Late in the third quarter a Saint rally was stopped when jack Comerford was taken out of the game because of an iniury to his shoulder. And even when he reentered the game with a broken arm to complete a 4ll-yard pass, the touchdown was thwarted by the linal whistle, leaving the Saints trailing, 6-0. Wlien the Red and Black lined up for the St. john's encounter, there could be seen many patches and shifts from the previous game. Fred Giddings moved into right half position while Austin llogan took over left tackle, and versa- tile jack McKeon alternated between left end and backlield. It was soon evident, though, that the big red team had too much power, weight and experience for the Saints and rapidly set about running up the score. At the end of the half the score was 27-U in favor of the lndians. The second half found the Saints holding their own better and preventing any further scoring. The big game of the season was with Poly Prep and found the Saints still missing key men. The team, however, was determined to light and from the opening whistle did so. For the first L BALL... quarter the Saints battered the Poly defense, driving almost to the goal and keeping the light well within their opponents' territory. Finally, after an interception by Regnell on the twenty- live, setting up the touchdown, Dick Morse plunged over for the first score of the game. The conversion failed and St. Paul's led, 6-0. Poly, however, came back and soon the score was tied at 6-6. Then an inspired Poly team began to batter at the weakened Saints' defense and soon had chalked up 13 points. The Saints fought gamely, but when the game ended the Poly boys had crossed the goal four times and made one conversion to emerge victorious, 25-6. Although the Saints won only one of their games, our hats are off to the boys like Tubby Wasltbtirn, who played every minute of every game, to jud Coodspeed, who only lost three minutes, to jack Comerford, Henry Frost and jack Lyons, who in spite of iniuries kept plug- ging, to Perry Williaiits and Al Tourangeau, who in one season went from raw recruits to stalwart veterans, to Rich Rainey, Killer Hogan, Eddie Regnell, Freddie Giddings, Dick Morse, Fred Kreuscher, jack McKeon, and Bob Moore, who were in there lighting every minute, and to the rest of the squad, whose backing was ex- cellent throughout the entire season. LEAGUE TEAM Page fflvirly-Nine BASEBALL Page ,Forty Our only regret concerning the coming base- ball season is the fact that we won't be able to put into our yearbook the results of what we predict will be a very successful year. Although our forecasting is based on first im- pressions only, we feel safe in relying upon them, for we know that when the team hits its mid-season form it is going to be a tough com- bination to stop. From the mound Al Tourangeau, Fred Gid- dings, Rus XX7ashburn, ,lack Comerford, and Tracy Clute look equally capable, while jud Goodspeed promises to be able to handle them all behind the plate. Dick Morse on first provides a large stretch- ing target that won't let many through in the schedule to come. The keystone combination of Eddie Regnell at second and jack Comerford at shortstop predicts a scourge of double plays as well as a good brand of baseball all year long. Utility pitcher Washburn on third is learning his new position fast, and by the season's end will be a full-fledged candidate for any hot-box. Rfchie Harstedt, jack McKeon, and Fred Giddings will hold down the outfield positions most of the time, but due to the surplus of pitchers, Mr. Smith is going to get a lot of practice in making out various combinations. Three pitchers who hold other positions on the team are going to be relieved by versatile Richie Harstedt, who can play third, shortstop, or the outfield. Eddie Regnell also can be relied upon to fill in behind the plate if anything should happen to ,lud Goodspeed. In reserve are Perry Williaimts at first, Bob Miles at second, Tom Corbett at shortstop, Henry Frost at third, and jack Thompson and Pete Finch behind the bat. From the looks of things the enemy out- lielders are going to be running themselves ragged, chasing after balls pounded out by the Saints' batsmen, who early in the year have been giving the snow fence and tennis courts an awful battering. Witli this combination of defense and of- fense the Saints have a brilliant season to look forward to and we're right behind them every inning wishing them the best of luck. TENNIS This year the tennis team has undertaken a very ambitious schedule which begins with Sewanhaka on April 22 and ends with Poly Prep on Wednesday, May 14. Between these dates, Coach Haire's boys will face seven other teams including those of St. john's, Trinity, Stony Brook, Adelphi, and LaSalle. Another feature of this year's tennis plan is the establishment of a second team which will meet Wfoodmere. This seems to be a splen- did idea as it gives younger players experience, and lays the foundation for successful teams in the future. As for the first team, there are many likely prospects including jimmy Syverson, who so capably held down the No. 2 position on last year's successful team, Dick Ahlers, letterman from Boy's High, who has shown considerable ability, Ray Burkland, letterinan here in '39, who, although somewhat erratic, may prove useful to the team if he is hot , Pierre Al- brecht, the South American flash, who, although only a freshman, has exhibited fine form, es- pecially on his ground strokes, Bill Bennett, the perennial two-year member of the team, who forsook his West End form to do or die, Austin BASK The basketball team of '41 will go down in St. Paul's records as one of the finest quintets ever to step foot on the gym floor. Coach Haire deserves a great deal of credit for moulding his players into as smooth and well coordinated a team as could be found in any preparatory school league. The final standing of the team was eight wins and four losses, two of the wins being over our traditional rivals, Poly Prep and Adelphi. Dick Morse, big right forward, led the team in scoring honors, while Al Tourangeau, the left forward, was second, Tubby Wasliblirn, play- ing at center, set up the plays and also did his share of the scoring. jack Comerford and Dick Rainey played with true ability, both defend- ing stubbornly and tossing in many baskets. St. Paul's began its season with four con- secutive victories winning over Hofstra Frosh, Mineola, Trinity, and Hofstra again. They were then defeated by the City of New York champions, Benjamin Franklin H. S., and in VARSITY TEAM Hogan, who has a cannon-ball serve, and Fred Kreuscher, who at times shows excellent volley- ing ability. As this Writeup goes to press before the team has been selected, it is still very probable that some dark horse will appear from the number of hopefuls which includes Vandenlleuvel, Far- rington, Barrett, King, and Avery. ETBALL the following game were tripped up by a power- ful LaSalle M. A. team. Once more the Saints settled down to check St. john's and then to vanquish Poly Prep and Adelphi in turn. La- Salle next played a return game which they won also, and the following week in a high scoring, exciting encounter the Saints bowed to the Rhode Island State Frosh. The season came to an end in the most exciting game of the season as the Saints whipped Newark Academy. Working shoulder-to-shoulder with the first five were Fred Giddings, Richie Harstedt, Bob Moore, jack McKeon, and Eddy Regnell, whose ability to fill in and work with the first team enabled the small squad to get the most out of the available material and thus lengthen the string of victories. Because there was no permanent captain elected, each of the boys took turns guiding the team for a game, thus giving every boy an equal position on the team and producing the outstanding team that it was Vane Furlv-One 5 LUWER SCHUUL BASKETBALL Top Row: C.

Presented by the boarders before their parents and the faculty and their wives, the pageant was divided into two parts. The first portrayed the Biblical story of the Three Wise Men and their search for the infant Christ, the second revived the ancient English customs associated with the Yuletide. The entire perform- ance was accompanied by appropriate carols. This was the first attempt at anything BUXING For the past three years a group of boys have been taking boxing lessons under the capable supervision of Mr. Salmon, a one-time welterweight cham- pion. This year, for the first time, the season was climaxed by a match with Carden City High School. Although the team lost seven to five, each bout was closely contested, with Hogan, E. Rahe, W. Wynn, Ahlers, and Harstedt ac- counting for St. Paul's five victories. Considering the team's lack of experi- ence, we feel the outcome was quite sat- isfactory. of this sort at St. Paul's, and its tremen- dous success was due only to the com- bined efforts of the faculty and their wives and of the boys. Mr. Ellis super- vised its production, Mrs. C. W. Smith was the accompanist, all of the ladies of the faculty, working under the leader- ship of Mrs. Dawson and Mrs. E. E. Smith, made the costumes, Mrs. Tanner taught dance routines, Messrs. Page and Dolbeare, assisted by many boys, pro- duced the properties, Mr. C. W. Smith was responsible for the make-ups, and Doug Criffin rendered great service with his typewriter. llilzlt' Forlv Thru: Tor PATRUNS and PATRUNESSES Mr. Walter R.
