(-_ Th V ♦♦♦♦♦♦ M o n t i c e Ho A Year book 19 3 5 Tublished by the Senior Qlass THOMAS JEFFERSON HIGH SCHOO L Council Blutts, Iowa r INTRODUCTION 1 HIS year T. J. takes another step forward by extending the content of the annual so that it will become a yearbook. The purpose of the book is mainly to record various events throughout the school in pictures as they occur. Every organization has taken pictures of events they engaged in. Most of the work has been done by the school itself. Contrary to former years, this publication will be an educational project for the whole school and will not be limited to select groups and up- per classmen. We, the journalism and printing departments of T. J. have done our best to make it a really authentic journal of the year 1934-35 at our school.

Tage 20 Thursday 21 February 1935 Vallery, Football Captain Joy Vallery, prominent senior athlete, captained the 1934 Thomas Jefferson football team. Captain Vallery played four years of football winning three letters. In basketball and track he received two letters each. Playing fullback in his freshman and sophomore years, Joy was shifted to end in his junior year. Vallery was elected captain by members of the squad, who con- sidered him the one most able to lead the 1934 football team. Captain Vallery showed during the past season that he was a capable leader leading his teammates to four victories. At the end of the past season Captain Vallery was honored by being placed on the All-South Western Iowa team and the Interstate League team. In basketball Joy played guard, while in track he participated in the mile relay, pole vault and hurdles. In his junior year Vallery was elected president of the junior class and proved himself a capable leader. He has been a member of the Forum and Boy ' s Council. Joy is now vice-president of the Lettermen ' s Club Joy Vallery Sherman Manages Yellowjackets Earning a letter as first team football manager this year was the mighty mite, Bill Sherman. Being small, Billy couldn ' t actually hope to play but he wanted to do his part so he selected the job of manager. Not being new to the athletics department because he had been an assistant the year before, Sherman knew how to run it. He thoroughly satisfied all that came in contact with him. Before and after games his high spirit and cheerfulness kept the players in a cheerful mood. His willingness to help the players adjust pads, tape fingers, and lace shoes made him one of them. Billy is an athlete in his own field, that of wrestling, where he is a letter winner. He is a member of the Lettermen ' s Club. Billy Sherman Yellowjackets Down Glenwood The Orange and White sod-busters trounced a highly touted Glenwood eleven 13-6 on the local turf, today. Favored to win, the Rams were stopped and outplayed by the Stuelkemen. The play of Shannon, T. J. fullback, on defense was outstanding. The contest was a hard fought battle throughout.

Paluka ' s room where refreshments were served. Play Review The all school play presented in the school auditorium was a thrilling mystery directed by Miss Doris A. Hatch. The scene opened in a penthouse twenty stories above New Orleans where eight guests had been mysteriously invited to a party. Each discovered an enemy in the group. For that reason they all prepared to leave, but hesitated as a radio voice informed them that before dawn each one was to die a self-inflicted death. They were warned that escape was impossible and would result in death, as the wires attached to all parts of the room were highly charged with electricity. Jean Trent and Peter Daly are the only ones to survive as, one by one, the other six members die. The climax was reached when Peter Daly accused Hank Abbott of the affair. Abbott confessed and allowed Peter and Jean to escape and then committed suicide.

Peterson and Saunders looked best for the Orange- men. Saturday 23 Fremont Vs. T. J. With both teams making the same number of touchdowns the Yellowjackets were downed 21-18 when the Orangemen failed to convert their extra points in the game with Fremont Every player on the Tiger eleven was outstanding. Making no yardage through the T J. line, the Fremont eleven resorted to their aerial aitacks which won the game for the team.

In their annual Turkey day classic the Yellowjackets defeated their hill top rivals, in as thrilling a game as has been fought in the annual series, by a score of 12-2. Although outweighed seven pounds to the man on the line, the hard-charging Tiger line held the Lynx backs to a total of 22 yards gained from scrimmage. On the other hand, the Jefferson backs were rolling up a total of 246 yards gained from scrimmage behind a hard block- ing and fast charging line. TheLynxmen threatened but once in the game. Early in the second quarter Shannon faded back and tossed a pass from the Lynx ' seven- teen yard line to Captain Vallery standing in the end zone for six points. Try for point by placement was wide, but there wasn ' t a doubt in the minds of the spectators that the Orange- men ' s six points were enough. Wright, Frame, and Shannon alternating carried the ball to the Lynx ' 5 yard line where Frame made his lone score of the game. A pass for extra point was knocked down by Sulhoff Early in the fourth quarter after several penalties had pushed the Jays back to their one yard line, Frame donated two points to the Lynx by giving them an intentional safety. This ended the scoring in the annual game with the Yellowjackets being superior in all departments except punting. Nine seniors played their last game for Thomas Jefferson today. Seniors who were seen in action for the last time were: Captain Joy Vallery, Jack Shannon, Don Frame, Melvin Carl- son, Ralph Bray, Ralph Geppert, and John Watts.

For the Lynx, Captain Bussey, Joel Montgomery and Talmage Quick played superior ball. Both teams were well coached and showed a good sportsman-like spirit.

I saw here and there some boys plotting on others, one of them laid it on harder than ever when his pal was being initiated. At T.

Tuesday 8 Glenwood vs. T. J. Still stinging from the defeat handed them by Fremont, the Thomas Jefferson Yellow- jackets took their spite out on the somewhat bewildered Glenwood quintet, at A. L. gym to the tune of 51-25. Starting out, the Orange and White played the same type of ball that was seen in the Fre- mont game. Wild passing, too much dribbling and erratic basket shooting marked the Jay ' s first-quarter play. In spite of this the period ended 12-9 with T. J. on the long end. Still playing spotty ball, the Stuelkemen left at the half with a 20-12 lead. Then it hap- pened. Springing like a mad dog at his leash the Yellowjackets ' long-held power was fully realized. Passing accurately, shooting deadly, and with a defense penetrated for but three points in the entire third period, the Jeffersonites chalked up a total of thirty-one points in the last half.

J. - North Wrestling Meeting a first place North team, the Thomas Jefferson mat men were dropped another rung in the Intercity League ladder, as they went down to defeat, 26-16, today. The features of the evening were the 125, 13 5, and heavy weight bouts. Hood, 125 pound man for T. J., pinned a surprised and somewhat bewildered Clarke of North in :39. Gibbens of T. J. succumed only after regulation time. Highly touted Stickles, North heavy-weight, could not pin inexperienced Ray Gotthold as much as he tried and had to be content with a decision. By the defeat, T. J. now holds fifth place in the league. Results of the match are: 85 pound class, Jensen, North, pinned Booton in 3:41; 95 pound class, Sorensen, North, pinned Myers in 6:12; 106 pound class, Sherman, T.

That axiom was proved true today when T. J. and North met at A. L. gym in one of the greatest defensive games, the finer won out; the final reckoning was North 24, T. J. IS Starting out slowly, the Vikings were content with holding T. J. and T. J. was content with holding North. Sullivan (a very pretty ball handler, indeed) and Fullington held North ahead at the half 13-8. With Frame and Martin counting from short range and Hall tallying from the free throw line, T. J. was behind but 16-14 midway in the game. In the first part of the fourth period Tage 57 January 1935 T. J. vs. North Basketball T. J. ' s best efforts were matched by North. First it was Martin under the basket for two points; Fullington from around the free throw line matched this. Shannon hit a long one; Sullivan did the same. So it went through the whole last period, the final score ending at 24-18. Martin looked good for T. J. while Fullmgton, Hall, Jackson, and Sullivan paced North. Monday 15 A. L. Wrestling Before an enthusiastic crowd, T. J. wrestlers went down to bitter defeat to the A. L. matmen here to the tune of 27%-16%. Starting out like wildfire T. J. swept the first three matches in falls, but could not hold the pace and did not win another match. An outstanding upset was the defeat of Hood, 125 pound man, for T. J., by Kemplin of A. L. Features of the match were Anderson, A. L., 155 pounder, pinning Pickens, T. J., in :21, and the overtime draw between Geppert, T. J. and Bussey, A. L. 145 pound man. Due to the defeat, T. J. was lowered to fifth in the Intercity League standings. Tuesday 16 Masque And Bauble Play Again the Masque and Bauble, dramatics club at T. J. sponsored a one-act play, Jean Lee Latham ' s Blue Teapot. Liberty Bell as Cythia, and Jimmie Grazier as Jimmy, took the leads. Bill Gotthold and Cheredel Cox played the parts of Ma and Pa respectively. Arlene Gaines was the student director. Although the scenery and costumes were set for the most torrid of summer weather and the audience was shivering, all the players did quite commendable work. R. O. T. C. Firing Squad Firing for all companies was completed with 38 cadets ranking as marksmen, 63 as sharp- shooters, and 47 as expert marksmen. A total of 66 points had to be attained qualification as a marksman, 76 points for a sharpshooter, and for the distinction of expert marksman, 84 points. Every cadet in the corps was given a chance to fire. Each one fired five shots from the prone position, five from sitting position, five from kneeling, and five from standing. A perfect score was 100. Everyone fired in each of the four positions twice; the first time for practice, and the second time for a record. In the first round of firing, 60 boys qualified as marksmen, 49 as sharpshooters, and 29 as expert riflemen. The highest score for the round was made by Bill Wade, of Company D., with a score of 92 out of a possible 100. In the second round of firing, which was for a record, Company A had seven marksmen, fourteen sharpshooters, and ten expert marksmen. Company B had five marksmen, ten sharpshooters, and twelve as expert marksmen, Company D boasted one marksman, thirteen sharpshooters, and thirteen expert riflemen.

J. basketeers the past four years when the said basketballers have met a certain Abraham Lincoln High School team. This day is a red letter day in the lives of all ardent T. J. basketball fans, for it was on this day that Madame Victory succumbed to the pleas of these aforesaid fans and T. J. beat A. L. to the tune of 26-18. Starting out slowly, T. J. held the first quarter on five free throws. Not until the second quarter did T. J. get a basket. Then Frame hit two in rapid succession to keep T. J. on top at the end of the half, l?-8. With Shannon, Vallery, and Gruver hitting long ones to keep T. J. ahead 20-17, despite a rally led by Quick, Eaton and Jennings, at the end of the third quarter, the Jays flashed the de- fense that has made them known and held A. L. to one point the whole last quarter. Shannon and Vallery ' s defensive work coupled with Gruvers work in the front line were standouts for T. J. Quick ' s speed was the standout for the Lynx players. T. J. vs. Hamburg Wrestlers The Southwest Iowa wrestlers from Hamburg fell an easy victim to the Yellowjackets today as the Orangemen were victorious to the tune or 34- -4 l -£. In th 165-pound division Abrahamson of T. J. and Hutson furnished the feature of the match by wrestling to a draw. Booton in the eighty-five pound division was the only Yellow- jacket to win a decision. In the following bouts, Thomas Jefferson held the edge: H. Rowe, Sherman, Ericksen, Hood, Geppert, C. Rowe, each won a fall over his opponent; Brown, Ham- burg, 13 5-pound wrestler won the only match for Hamburg by winning a 4:03 decision over Lalich.

Saturday 2 T. J. - Tech Wrestlers The Thomas Jefferson and Omaha Tech matmen met on the local mat today for the sec- ond time this season. Thomas Jefferson was defeated by the s core of 23% -8%. The feature bout of the match was between Geppert and Lee in the 155-pound class, when they wrestled to a draw. Booton in the eighty-five pound class won a decision over Sartine of Tech, and Sherman in the 105 pound class defeated Slaton on aggressiveness. The Tech wrestlers, except on a few occasions, outclassed the Yellowjackets. Tuesday 5 T. J. - South Wrestlers The strong South Packers defeated the Yellowjackets in the second semester match by the score of 27-13. Thomas Jefferson won three bouts during the match, two bouts won by falls and the other a decision. The feature of the match proved to be the 105 pound class. Sherman, T. J., and O ' Con- nors of South, were the two bestl05 pound men in the intercity and put on a great exhibition. Sherman won by a 6:00 time advantage, however. The match was not as one-sided as the time points it to be. Creighton Prep Game Meeting the undefeated Creighton Prep squad on February 5, the Orangemen went down before the sharpshooting Omaha quint 35-18. Inability to stop a last-half spurt spelled defeat for the proteges of Coach Stuelke. Tall Roman Roh, Prep center, led the attack during this interim by cashing in on four baskets, al- most all of them from well out on the floor. The Junior Jays presented a well-developed attack in every department of the offense and a sturdy defense led by Kayo Robino, tall guard. Dan Fisher started the Jays off with a bang as he slipped one in from the side in the first minute. From then on they were never headed. The half they held a lead. Then came the purge. Ringing in baskets with reckless abandon the Jays marched steadily ahead and ended with a 36-18 victory. For Prep, Robino and Joh were the backbone of both offense and defense. Robino ' s mad dashes into the basket and sensational defensive work in holding Gruver, T. J. high scorer, were the highlights, along with Roh ' s great sharpshooting from the floor, of the Prep attack. How- ever, credit is due to Roach and Fisher for great floor games. Vallery held Siesel to two points the whole game whereas Shannon held Roh until that personage started his sensational shooting. Wednesday 6 Glenwood The Thomas Jefferson Cagers had little trouble in defeating Glenwood at Glenwood, for the third straight win of the year, two in basketball and one in football. The Yellowjackets took a 7-5 lead at the end of the first period, and extended it to 14 to 9 at the half. The final score being 28-21 Tage 89 February 1935 Friday 8 T.J.-A.L. Wrestling In the second Abraham Lincoln and Thomas Jefferson wrestling combats, the Lynx, as a result of graduation, lost several veteran wrestlers that considerable weakened the hill-top squad. The Orangemen capitalized on this break and the match ended 25-21 in favor of the Yellow- jackets. Booton, H. Rowe and Sherman defeated their opponents as they did in the preceding A. L. and T. J. match. Carl Rowe and Bill Saunders turned in a fine exhibition, by pinning their opponets. Rowe won a fall over Tormeton in an overtime period, and Saunders, a new mem- ber of the Orange squad, pinned after 3:40 of struggle. M-i-n-k Music Contest Thomas Jefferson ' s boys ' quartette and girls ' trio were rated high in the M-I-N-K contest held at Peru, Nebraska, today. The quartette received superior and the trio, excellent. Saturday 9 T. J. - A. L. Tournament Competing in the Iowa sectional tournament from Monday to Saturday the Thomas Jeffer- son squad won second place when they lost to A. L. 26-18 in the finals. In the first round T. J. walked over an enthusiastic but somewhat bewildered Oakland team 38-16. Working with the ease they had achievied during the year, the J ' s chalked up a big score the first half and coasted in with victory on their heels. Meeting the Carson team in the second round the Orange and White waltzed through with a 56-6 victory. Entering the finals against A. L. with two victories over the hill-top crew already, the J ' s played an inferior brand of ball in comparison to what they had been playing and were beaten 26-18.

Entertainment followed the reception. Betsy Ross (Lenora Lawson) was mistress of cere- monies. Members of Florence Baker ' s dancing class tapped. Her tiniest pupil toe-danced. Jane Ellen Reynolds, garbed in white wig, knee breeches, and lace frills, danced the minuet with Florence Baker who wore a white beruffled dress of style of 1789. Even Mr. Washington could not repress a smile when Beverly Mendelson retold the cherry tree story. Since a colonial gath- ering is not complete without it, the Virginia reel was also danced. The grand march preceding the general dancing was led by Mr. and Mrs. George Washington, and Mr. and Mrs. Madison. Although the Colonial ball was sponsored by the Library club, under the direction of Miss Feme Warskinke, and the guests were Thomas Jefferson students and their parents, there was a colonial atmosphere that no one can deny.

In the first round T. J. won four matches, lost four and drew one bye. Sleyter, 85 pounder, put up a great fight against Bernth, South man, but lost to his experienced foe. Wesley Lonergan, defending champion from South, put Harry Rowe out only after Rowe had almost pinned him twice. Billy Sher- man came through as expected with a fall over Lanphier of Creighton Prep. Vincent Arm- atis dropped a great match to Dean of North in the 115 lb. class. Charles Hood and Alvin Coach Daggett Charles Hood Kemplin of A. L. put on the finest exhibition of the day, going into two over-time periods and stQl having a draw. On the flip of a coin Charles Hood was declared winner. Our 135 lb. man drew a bye in the first round. Ralph Geppert won a decision over Camgka of Central in the 145 lb. class. Norman Abrahamson, husky 165 lb. man, came through with a decision over Gaylord of South, Bill Saunders, heavyweight lost to Ojile of Creighton Prep to end the round proceedings: On the second day Bill Sherman met his arch-rival, Gareld Slaton, dusky Tech grappler. Bill held a decision over Slaton earlier in the year but the little Tech boy put up a fine battle and finally beat Billy in the biggest upset of the meet. Charles Hood next met Kelley of Creighton Prep and scored an easy to enter the finals. Delbert Booton, 135 lb. man, lost a close decision to R. Steiber of A. L. Geppert pinned Brewster of North to advance to the finals. Reichstadt of Central decisioned Abrahamson to put the T. J. 165 lb. man out of the meet. Going into the finals Hood met Salerno of South. The South boy had previously won two decisions over Hood so he was cast in the role as an underdog. Giving the South boy a lesson, Hood decisively decisioned him to become Inter-City champion. Geppert put up a grand fight but lost a close decision to Peterson of Tech. Charles Hood in the 125 pound class was the only Inter-city champion from Thomas Jef- ferson.

Managing Editor Wayne Moser Assistant Editors Floyd Yudelson Marjorie Aten Thelma Passer Frances Nielsen Proof Reader Helen O ' Connor Assistants Grace Jay Aileen Larsen Hazel Dimon Business Manager Faye Evans Advertising Solicitors Ronald Ellis Dave Lind Robert Wood Bill Saunders Faculty Journalism Hazel Miller Printing Carl Gernetsky Yearbook Change Thomas Jefferson ' s year book has taken the form of a tri-annual publication in magazine style. For those who wish to pay an additional charge, the three magazines, consisting of thirty-two pages each, will be b ound in volume form at the end of the school year — and presto you will have your Monticello. The first edition of the New Monticello is dedi- cated to athletics, in particular; the second, will feature the organizations and activities; and the last, to the sen- iors and administration. Good points of the old style year book and of the Signal have been united in the publication. The photo- graphy of the annual has been used in combination with feature articles of important events instead of the tradi- tional statistical reports. It Stays The J. R. Day trophy, annual prize, over which the local high schools battle annually is now in permanent possession of Thomas Jefferson since the Yellowjackets have now won the annual game three years in succes- sion. The rules pertaining to the trophy are that the team winning three years in succession would have permanent posses- sion and now the cup is a Thomas Jefferson cup. Previous to this year, the Yellowjack- ets had won the cup six times to our rivals three while the teams have struggled to three tie games. In 1927 and 1928 the Orangemen nearly had the necessary three straight victories, but in 1929 a determined Abe Lincoln eleven downed the local team 12-6. Now after winning the cup three successive times the Yellowjackets will pre- sent it to the school where it will remain permanently. The 1935 football team should be con- gratulated that it had the necessary punch to win the third year because Abe Lincoln fights the harder when in danger of losing the cup permanently. Now the trophy case of Thomas Jefferson has another perman- ent trophy — the J. R. Day Trophy. A Dismal Back Look Closing a rather dismal season the Thomas Jefferson Yellowjackets have on the 1935 record book, five wins, one tie game, and six losses. The Yellowjackets played a hard 12 game schedule, starting out with only a week of practice. With nine lettermen back for the 1935 season hopes were high for a successful sea- son but the high lord of football ruled other- wise. The 1935 team lost six games. Of these games only five were better teams, the sixth game was a dull, listless contest in which the Orangemen did not play the football that they could. Injuries took toll of the team ' s power and in serveral games was actually responsible for defeat. T. J. played a twelve game schedule, the only Intercity school to play this many. In flashes of brilliance the local gridders displayed a sterling offense and defense. After losing four games in a row, the locals took the bad taste out of their supporter ' s mouths by trouncing Fremont and A. L. With the season over and a year before the beginning of the football wars again players are happily awaiting chances for revenge. Graduating players are recalling the happy and sad moments of the past sea- son while Coach Stuelke sits in his easy chair dreaming of another Interstate League title. Pa £j 2 z?Xi onti c ell o December 1935 The Eye Opener Starting practice on September 3, nearly seventy- five boys turned out to begin the 1935 grid season at Thomas Jefferson. With nine lettermen returning, pros- pects for a winning season were bright A practice eleven lined up with Abrahamson and Quigley at the ends, Humes and Rieketts tackles, Gott- hold at center, Moser and Pickens, guards, with Gruver, Wright, Brown and Areh in the baekfield. This eleven started the Villisea game on September 13. Lettermen returning were: Captain Wayne Moser, Ralph Pickens, Don Quigley, Ray Gotthold, Punk Arch, Bruce Wright, Clyde Gruver, Bill Humes, and Wood- row Rieketts. Wright and Gotthold were juniors and the others seniors. Complete turnout for the first and second squad was: Adams, Ager, Bolin, Breedlove, Carroll, Field, Fry, Flynn, Gurney, Garner, Geppert, H. Harnly, Jack Herweg, Chester Hill, Higginbotham, Hock, Lund, Lar- sen, Lewis, Neve, Osborne, O ' Dell, Oshlo, Putnam, Bill Quigley, Ripper, Suder, Rockwell, Stanley, Shannon, Steach, Speer, Sales, Turpen, Traylor, Wallin, Wilson, Westbrook, Zoffka, Taylor, Rowe, White, Richardson, King, Ahlquist, John Herweg, Souser, Travis, Couppee, Walker, Wright, Travis, Souser, Saunders, Rubenstein, Rieketts, Don Quigley, Pickens, Peterson, Moser, Holts, Harvey, Humes, Halstead, Dave Harnly, Gotthold, Dip- pel, Booton, Brown, Arch, and Abrahamson. The Season Football Schedule of 1935 Sept. 13 — Villisea here- Sept. 20 — Glenwood there- Oct. 4 — Creighton Prep here- Oct. 12—1. S. D here- Oct. 18 — Hamburg there- Nov. 1 — E.

Brown, T. J. halfback, scored with the game just three minutes old when he covered Arch ' s fumble in the end zone. Try for point was no good. The Yel- lowjackets scored again in the second on a long pass Wright to Duke Gruver. Arch kicked the extra point. Early in the third quarter Wright got away off tackle to score on a 38 yard run, the longest of the game. Extra point was missed bv Arch. The rest of the third period was played with T. J. carrying the ball but unable to score. Abrahamson, Yellowjacket end. made the way for the last score when he covered a Villisea tumble on their 10-yard line. On the next play Arch scored. Try for extra point was again missed. Arch. Wright, and Gruver gave notice that they would be in the thick of the Intercity scoring race with their plunging and passing. While the other backs were not given a chance to show up on offense thev showed ud well on defense. In the line Ray Gotthold, Pickens, Quigley and Captain Moser were best. Pickens alone broke up many Bluejav plays. While Villisea was clear ' v outclassed, the Bluejays, particularly Captain Netto, Hale, and Scott, never gave up and forced the Orangemen to play good football. In the closing minutes Coach Stuelke gave all the young sters a chance and the game ended with the ball in Thomas Jefferson ' s possession. Glenwood Game Scoring on the opening kickoff of the second half, the Yellow jacke ' s tied the Glenwood Rams 6-6 on the foreign field. September 20 Thomas Jefferson played sluggish hall during the whole game. Glenwood gave the locals a chance to score early in the first quarter when Ouiplev recovered Cogley ' s fumble on the Glenwood 30-yard line Here the Glen- wood line held, and the Rams took the ball on downs. Glenwood then scored on a pass. Huebner to Cogley, but missed the extra point. The rest of the half was played in the middle of the field with T. T. in possession of the ball. In the second quarter both Gotthold and Arch were hurt and this hampered the Orangemen. Smarting from a pep talk bv Coach Stuelke the bovs decided to play football the second half. Glenwood kicked off to Gruver on the 20, he went to the 30 and while being tackled lateraled to Bruce Wright, who raced 70 yards to score. The extra point was missed, and the game tied up 6-6. In the fourth quarter Wright carried the ball to the Glenwood 10 only to have a 15- yard penalty off set the gain. After an exchange of punts Wright scrampered from mid-field to the Glen- wood 8, but the officials said he stepped outside on the Glenwood 40 yard line. With Wright and Arch leading the way T. J. made 206 yards from scrimmage to Glenwood ' s 90 yards. Bill Humes again suffered a shoulder injury which ham- pered him greatly. Ralnh Pickens. Gotthold and Harn- ly were best on the Jefferson line. D e c em b e r 1035 f . a nti c ell o ' Page 3 I. S. D. Game Playing superior ball before a Saturday night crowd nt 1,500 persons, the Yellowjackets defeated then- city rivals, Iowa School for the Deaf, 19-7. With neither team scoring in the first quarter, even though T. J. frequently threatened. Arch started the scoring in the second when he plunged over for the first score of the game. Try for point by Arch was no good. Later in the quarter the Yellowjackets again scored when Bruce Wright ran a punt back 36 yards to score. I. S. D. scored on an interception of a pass by Alford Duda, I. S. D. fullback, who ran 4 ? yards to score and then plunged the extra point. The half ended shortly after the next kickntt with T. J. 111 possession of the ball. Both teams played eood ball in the third quarter and neither was able to score. The Yellowjackets were stopped many times because of penalties and a fiehting I. S. D. line. In the middle of the fourth quarter, Bruce Wright again scored after he had run a punt back to the 12 ,ind Gruver had carried the ball to the 1-yard line where Wright earned it over. The locals threatened the Bobcats ' goal often, but penalties and a light, but determined, Bobcat line kept the Stuelkemen from scoring further. T. J. made 12 first downs to the Deaf boys ' 1 and gained 278 yards from scrimmage to I. S. D. ' s 38. Penalties were num- erous, but the game was not intentionally rough. For the Yellowjackets, Wright and Arch were best in the baekfield but it was Dave Harnly and Duke Gruver, moved to end from baekfield, who were best. Duda and Calkins were Coach Scott ' s best bets. North Game Omaha, North, defeated a fighting Change and White eleven 13-0 on the local field after injuries of players in strategic positions had weakened the locals in the second half. This defeat put the Yellowjackets 111 the cellar of the Interstate League. Neither team was able to score in the first half due to good defensive play by both teams although T. J held a slight advantage over the North lads. T. J. threatened to score early in the first quarter after Harn- ly had recovered a North fumble on their 2 yard line North took the ball on downs after Wright and Arch had failed to go past the 13-yard line In the second quarter Arch intercepted a North pass and went 20 yards to the visitor ' s 30, but the drive failed on the 2 ' ?. North scored late in the third quarter on a pass Crahan to Prawl, who took it to the 8 yard line. Dunlap in three plunges went to the 3, 1, and over for the first North score. Point tor goal was blocked. After holding the Polar Bears for ten minutes in the last quarter with better punting, the Yellowjackets weakened and North scored. Crahan put the ball on the T. J. 30 after a run nt 20 yards. A pass from Luby to Prawl on the 25 allowed Prawl to go to the 4 before he was stopped. Dunlap plunged to the 1 yard line, Luby added two feet in two tries, and on fourth down Dunlap fell across tor the score. A Dunlap to Prawl pass was good fur the extra point. Had it in it been tor injuries the Yellowjackets would have probably held the North boys to a scoreless game. The T. J. subs were not capable of holding the hard charging Northmen. Dave Harnly and Fred Ol- sen, ends, turned 111 a good game tor the locals while Bruce Wright and Duke Gruver stood out in the baek- field. Olsen ' s performance was his best of the yeai Bill Humes, veteran tackle, received a slight brain concussion; Ray Gotthold, a general battering; and Arch a slight shoulder injury. The loss of these three lads Hamburg Game Journeying to Hamburg, la. the Yellowjackets did anything but play football, thus receiving at 19-6 set ' back by a less capable team than T. J. On the opening kickoff Vogel of Hamburg ran the ball back 76 yards to score. Place kick for extra point was good. T. J. seemed in a daze, (the bus ride I guess), for after receiving the second kickoff could do nothing, and Hamburg took the ball. Still trying to figure out a riddle that had been argued about on the bus, the T. J. let Captain Glenn run li yards for a score in the second quarter. Try for extra point was no good. With but 30 seconds left in the half the T. J. bus- let Vogel again score on a 1 -yard run. Extra point was missed. Starting out the second half in a differ- ent mood, the Yellowjackets were able to hold the Selkmen scoreless and scored a touchdown themselves, T. J. scored on a straight drive down the field, featur- ing a triple lateral Wright to Moser to Gruver, which was stopped on the 1 . Wright scored on the next play but the extra point was missed. The field was quite muddy and hamjiered Wright and Gruver but the T. J. line played listless ball during the whole game. Vogel and Glenn were best for Ham burg while no one was outstanding for T J Benson Opening their November suicide schedule against Benson on the local field, November 7, the Yellowjack ets were defeated 13-0 after a hard game This was the Tage- 4 qN. onticello T ec ember 1935 first defeat for the Stuelkemen in six panics with the Bunnies. Thomas Jefferson showed a flash of spirit in the first quarter, when Wright elicked off a 20-yard dash that placed the hall on downs on Benson ' s 33-yard line. From here Benson started its scoring drive and ad- vanced, by hard football playing, to the Yellowjacket ' s 7 yard line as the quarter ended. In the first play in the second quarter, the ball was advanced to the 6-yard line for first down. Jordan, right half-back, then bucked the line for 3 yards. Pratt, full back, plunged through the line for Benson ' s first touchdown. The try for extra point was no good. Ben- son was on its way for second touchdown when Capt. Wayne Moser broke through the line and recovered a fumble on his own 30-yard line. During the third quarter it looked as if flashy Bruce Wright was off on one of his long runs, but Hurd took the ball away from him and raced 12 yards for Benson ' s second touchdown. Krejci, Benson left tackle, moved into the backfield and kicked the extra point making the score, Benson 1 3 and T. J. 0. The fourth quarter saw only an exchange of punts. Benson was satisfied to sit tight and hold T. J. during the final period. T. J. tried to penetrate the enemy territory, but the Benson line held. When the final gun sounded, the score still stood 13-0. Benson scored only on hard plunges through the line by Pratt, fullback, although time after time the Bunnies were thrown for a loss by the center of the Jefferson line. Krejci, tackle, was the outstanding Ben- son lineman. Couppee, sophomore fullback, showed up well in his blocking and tackling, but it was left to Bruce Wright to make most of the yardage. Inefficient open field blocking was the downfall of the Jefferson team. Time after time Wright was through the line only to be downed by a Benson back. Woody Ricketts, Dave Hamly, and Fred Olsen were best in the Orange line, but center Ray Gotthold also played a smashing game. Ward Travis was injured when making a head on tackle and could not return to the game. Creighton Prep. Staging a fourth quarter rally, which netted thir- teen points against Creighton Prep, wasn ' t enough so the Yellowjackets dropped their first Interstate battle 20-13 on the local field, October 4. After trailing for three quarters of the game due to two fumbles and a forward pass, which gave Prep a 20-0 lead, the Orangemen opened up in the last quar- ter. Bruce Wright started the comeback on a lateral, which he car ried to the Prep 22. Arch plunged to the 10 in two tries. Wright then went to the 5 and Arch carried over for the first T. J. score. Arch then kicked the extra point. Prep fumbled the next kickoff and Captain Moser recovered on Prep ' s 40 Wright went to the 30 and then passed to Brown who was roughed and the play was called good. After two futile attempts at the line Wright faded back and passed to Duke Gruver for the last Orange score. Arch ' s kick was no good. The locals were flat footed in the first half allow- ing Prep a touchdown on a 40-yard pass, Robino to Fisher, and Robino, Prep captain, grabbed a fumble in the air and also scored. Try for extra point was good. The rest of the half went scoreless. De Lier, Prep tackle, was the lucky one to catch a T. J. fumble in the air and score standing up. Fraser plunged the extra point over. Then came the local of- fensive that wasn ' t quite enough. T. J. played a poor game for three quarters, but were clicking in the fourth. Captain Wayne Moser and Ralph Pickens were powerhouses on defense but shared honors with Wright, Arch, and Duke Gruver on offense. For Prep, Robino, Narkovitz, and Bender were best. Sioux City Weakening in the second half after holding the East Sioux Raiders 2-0 in the first half, Thomas Jef- ferson Yellowjackets went down 23-0 before an East homecoming crowd of 2,000. T. J. kicked to East but the Sioux City running at- tack was smothered and the Jackets were forced to punt. The locals took the ball and, with Wright skirt- ing the ends, rolled up three successive first downs. After carrying the ball to the 30 the Stuelkemen lost it on a fumble. East partially blocked a kick and gained possession of the ball on the Jefferson 10 yard line. Here the Yellowjacket line displayed its true ability, giving but 2 yards in four plays. Wright went back to kick, but the pass from center was too high, and Sioux City recovered for a safety. Shortly after the kickoff the half ended. Score 2-0. Putting in fresh linemen the second half the Raid- ers scored after a march from the T. J. 45. Sioux City had first and ten on the Orange 4-yard line and Schelezes on the fourth down made the first Raider score. His score was argued by Captain Moser; the officials took 5 minutes to decide in favor of Sioux City. The other two Raider scores came on runs by Lyle and Fleming. Although the description sounds all East, the game was a closely played one. After the first Sioux City score T. J. received. The kick went to Moser who in turn lateraled to Wright who sprinted 70 yards to score but it was called back because the linesman said TJ e c em b e r 1935 e7 ( on tic ello Tag, e- 5 he stepped outside. The Orangemen played a different type of football than in several past contests, and the Yellowjacket line would not have been recognized by fans, who thought they would lie down as they did against Hamburg. In the first half Orange linemen were in the Sioux City backfield as much as the Raider backs themselves. Thomas Jefferson played a far better game than the score indicates, and the work of Ralph Pickens, Ray Gotthold and Harnly on the line was outstanding while Gruver, Wright and Couppee were best in the back field. Lyle, Fleming and Stazewsky were best for the Raiders. Ida Grove Passed to death by a heavier Ida Grove eleven, the Thomas Jefferson Yellowjackets received a 32-1 J set- back, November 15. Ida Grove outweighed and out- played the locals although there was no lack of fight in the Yellowjacket ranks. T. J. received the kickoff on their own 29-yard line and advanced in four first downs to the Ida Grove 24. After exchanging kicks in the last part of the quarter, Punk Arch, pile-driving fullback, fumbled on his own 40-yard line and Ida Grove recovered. Ida Grove ' s first score came when Bond took a pass from Vickerstaff on the T. J. 30 and raced over the goal line. Try for extra point was good. T. J. again tumbled on its 43, and Ida Grove again recovered. Mur- phy, left half-back, carried the ball over for the second touchdown, after a series of off tackle smashes. The kick for extra point was wide. Olsen, T. J. right end, fumbled the following kick- off, and Ida Grove recovered on T. J. ' s 38. Complet- ing two successful passes Ida Grove scored their third touchdown of the quarter. Try for point was good. The first half ended 20-0. In the middle of the third quarter with T. J. in mid- field, Gruver faded back and tossed a pass to Captain Moser on the 20, and the T. J. captain scored his first touchdown of the season. Arch ' s kick for point was low. In the fourth quarter Gotthold intercepted an in- vaders pass and lumbered to the 35-yard line before be- ing downed. Ida Grove then followed suit and inter- cepted a T. J. pass on the T. J. 40. The Idains were called out of bounds on the T. J. 9-yard line. On the third play Vickerstaff finding no one to receive, raced around end to score. Kick for point was wide. Wright took the following kickoff on his 20 and clicked off one of his long runs to return the ball to the Ida Grove 40. A pass from Gruver to Harnly on the 5 resulted in the second Yellowjacket touchdown. Mos- er carried the ball over on a fake kick for the extra point. Ida Grove scored a few minutes before the quar ter ended on a 25 -yard pass from Vickerstaff to Bond which resulted in the fifth Ida Grove score. The Yellowjackets played good ball throughout the game with Olsen, Arch, Harnly, Wright, and Captain Moser playing better than average. Fremont Thomas Jefferson gridders closed their scheduled season November 22 with a smashing victory over Fre- mont 31-12. The locals avenged last year ' s defeat and escaped the cellar position in the Interstate league. Recovering a Yellowjacket fumble on the 26-yard line, Fremont carried the ball to the 5 and the Fremont right halfback went over on an end run. Try for extra point was blocked. On the next kickoff Wright ran about 70 yards to score but was declared outside on the 39-yard line. He then carried the ball to Fremont ' s 29-yard line. On the next play Couppee, T J. substitute fullback, fumbled and Fremont recovered as the quarter ended. In the second period Fremont kicked out of danger- ous territory and the ball landed on T. J. ' s 27-yard line. Arch, who received the kick, carried the ball to his own 44-yard line. The next play, Gruver, T. J. quarter- back, faded back and tossed a pass to Wright, who car- ried the ball to Fremont ' s 3 -yard line before being downed. Arch, pile driving fullback, bucked the line and carried the ball over for the first Orange score. Try for extra point failed. Jack Neve, substitute cente r, threw a wrench in the Fremont scoring machine when he intercepted a pass on the invaders 42-yard line. Duke Gruver, T. J. ' s aerial man, faded back and let go a pass on the 20 to Dave Harnly, flashy left end, who carried the ball over for T. J. ' s second touchdown. Arch ' s kick for point was deflected outside of the goal posts. Early in the third quarter Wright ran 45 yards to score but was called back because of a holding penalty on T. J. T. J. then backed Fremont to their own goal line only to lose the ball on downs. Quarter-back Reed fumbled what would have been a kick, but Ralph Pick- ens recovered for a touchdown. Arch kicked the extra point. Little Freddie Olsen, right end, recovered a Fre- mont fumble on their 37-yard line. Duke Gruver then carried the ball over for another T. J. counter. Kick Tage 6 eJM. o n t i c e I I o December 1035 hi .1- in) good. Ncanng the end of the third qua : Yellow jackets again took the air, and Gruver II :d a long pass to Dave Harnly, who then scored his ind touchdown. With nearly .ill new men in the T. J. line up, Fre- III 11 with aid ot their Negro star Patterson, backed the 1 ts down the field and scored a second iwn. The Stuelkemen played superior ball but were a ii ■ _ h and over anxious and lost 110 yards on pen- alti rs Moser, Olsen. Harnly. and Pickens were outstand- ing the line. Punk Arch played the kind of game ii have been asking lor all year. Graver ' s spot passes I Wright ' s long runs had no mean influence 111 ie score. Without doubt Patterson, colored boy troii Fremont, was the outstanding player on the invad- er ' s ■ ' . Give ' Em A Hand Clyde Gruver Holding down a backfield position on the Orange I ' i. we find that 160 pound senior, Clyde Duke Gruver. Playing nearly all the backfield positions this year, Duke was a capable player, no matter what po- siti ' Ji he played. His passing and punting helped the tearj out of many bad spots, and he also carried the ball well Duke is a senior and has played football for the last our years at T. J Bruce Wright Filling one of the most important positions on the team we find that slim, good-looking Bruce Wright. We jhiiig but 135 pounds Wright carries the ball for the Yellowjackets and is quite adept at scoring, being fourth 111 the Inter-city scoring race. Bigger opponents .ti • quite puzzled when they hit Wright hard expecting in . ■ • him knocked out, but Bruce surprised them and is ii = up before they are. Bruce is a junior and will ii ■ back next year. Arch Playing football is a pleasure to Punk Arch be- cause he likes to hit his opponents with his 200 pounds II --h and bone. A fullback, one that runs over every one 1 his way, Punk is a hard man to stop. When the ■40. y is tough Arch is at his best and glories in hard ta k is on defense. Arch is a senior and has played four years of football for T. J. George Brown Playing enough at quarterback to earn a letter was George Brown. Brown was Graver ' s sub and made a cap. 1 hie replacement for Duke. His blocking and tackling was always done in a determined way. He played second team last year and is a junior with an- other year of competitio n left. Wayne Moser Moser played guard, halfback, and defensive tackle this year. He was captain of the 1935 team and called the signals from whatever position he played. Not a flashy player, Moser was a consistent one. Being a sen- ior this was his last year. He earned a letter as a jun- ior and has played football for four years here. Saunders Doc Saunders is the big tackle that you saw out on the field constantly chattering. Doc ' s just a junior, his fighting spirit and never say die ways should help him a lot next year. Doc weighs 179. Rubenstein Dynamite comes in small packages. That, at least, is what Dave Rubenstein, senior reserve guard would make you believe. Dave weighs but 128 pounds but he was out there every night scrapping it out with the big boys. Halstead Walter Halstead, senior end, was previously known as a trackman but he tried out for football, and now doesn ' t have to take a back seat for anyone for football ability. Walt blocked the kick that made the first points against A. L. Harnly This was Harnly ' s first year out for football but he improved so that he became one of the outstanding ends in the Intercity. In the first A. L. contest and in the Ida Grove and Creighton Prep games, Dave showed real flashes of brilliancy. Harnly is a senior and is lettering the first time. Olsen Another Olsen means only another football player to T. J. sports followers. That ' s just what Fred Olsen, 142 pound end, turned out to be. Handicapped by lack of weight, Fred had to make up for it by his playing. The Olsen-end-around became quite well known in foot- ball circles. Olsen is a junior and will be back next year. Ricketts There were no headlines or stories written about Woody Ricketts, three year man in T. J. football, but his consistency could never be overlooked. Rickett ' s 200 pounds along with his ability made him a tough tackle in anv football game. T e c em b e r 1935 fl ontic ello ' Page. Pickens One of the finest linemen in the Intercity was Ralph Pickens, who has put in four years of football at T. J. Ralph became quite notorious for playing in the op- ponents ' backfield. He will be sorely missed next year. Picken ' s tips the scales at 162. Gotthold Serving his second year at first team center and with one year left, Ray Gotthold ' s name, if his present tempo of play improvement keeps up, will be placed on many all-star teams. Ray was one of the hard luck boys on the team. In every game be received some sort of injury. His 176 pounds did him in good stead at his center post. Humes The Greeks may have had a word for it but Bill Humes, 168 pound senior tackle, could never find a word tor his luck except the type which we couldn ' t print. Unable to play against Villisca and hampered in the Glenwood game by a shoulder injury wasn ' t enough. For no sooner had he recovered than he reecived a frac- tured skull in the North game which put him out for the season. Bill served two years on the first team and one each on the frosh and second. Peterson Probably one of the most inexperienced men on the team was Bob Peterson, 193 pound guard. Bob had only a short term on the second team prior to his first team work this year but his work, especially against A. L., showed that experience didn ' t make the player. Graduation Takes Twelve Twelve senior gridders will be lost to Coach G. R. Sti ' clke ' s squad when they march up the aisle to receive their diplomas in June Those to be taken by graduation are: Captain Wayne Moser, Bill Humes, Eldred Arch, Clyde Gruver, Ralph Pickens, Woodrow Ricketts, two year lettermen; Robert Peterson, Dave Harnly, Dave Rubinstein, San- ford Harvey, Adelbert Booton and Walter Halstead. first year men. Moser, Humes, Arch, Gruver, Pickens and Ricketts have played four years of football here. In 1932, as freshmen under the direction of O. R. Wessels, former commercial teacher, they formed a frosh eleven that was undefeated and unscored on in six contests. Moser was an end on this championship team; Humes played tackle along side Pickens at guard and Ricketts at ecu ter. Arch and Gruver played fullback and quarter- back respectively. None of these lads lettered in their sophomore year in football but Gruver lettered in basketball. In their junior year the boys moved up to the first team. Moser and Pickens were at the guards along side Arch at cen- ter. Humes filled one tackle position and Ricketts let- tered at the other along with Bill Gotthold. Gruver played quarterback. Coming back for the 1935 season these six lads who have been together all their high school career formed the backbone of a strong team. Moser had been elected captain at the end of the 19 34 season by his team- mates. He started out playing guard but was later shift- ed to wing back and played tackle on defense. Humes met up with bad luck, receiving a brain concussion that prevented him from manning his tackle position. Pick- ens played guard on offense and tackle on defense as Ricketts played just the opposite. Arch was shifted from center to fullback, and Gruver again played quar- terback. Earning letters for the first time were Bob Peter- son, Dave Harnly, Dave Rubinstein, Sanford Harvey, Adelbert Booton, and Walter Halstead. Bob played sec- ond team in 19.34, his first year out, playing tackle and guard. Harnly was a new-comer to football but was a natural born end. Rubinstein was small but had the will to work and thus made up tor his lack of weight. This was his first year out for football. Harvey, a ten second man in track was a halfback and earned his first letter in football. Booton was an end who was not a regular but played enough to receive a letter. Halstead is not a senior but will be ineligible for competition next year and receives his letter for the first time. Walt played tackle and end. Thus graduation takes its toll of the school ' s grid- ders. But as the seniors are graduated the juniors, soph- omores and freshmen move up to fill their shoes. Charge Of The Twilight Brigade Charge! Charge! Charge! My old grandma could hit harder! Thus Coach Stuelke raves at his football players far into the dim twilight. Frequently a resounding smack sounds loud above the general con- fusion, and everyone knows that Coach Stuelke has made some player feel several degrees warmer in certain dor- sal regions. Many players have sworn revenge against that old wooden paddle, but in the writer ' s opinion it should be saved as a trophy of victory or as a token of indescribable misery. When it grows so dark that Stuelke can no longer see to worm his way into the huddle, he announces that practice will end. After prescribing from three to five laps as a conditioner , he permits his exhausted group of footballers to partially refresh themselves un- der a stinging shower that is invariably too hot or too cold. Another instance in which Coach Stuelke displays his rather remarkable talent is in the locker room just previous to a game. Towering above his reclining foot- ball players, Stuelke loses a tirade that practically winds him. Football players have been heard to comment in a caustic manner that it must have taken the Coach at least half of his college career to learn to deliver so forceful a pep talk. Coach Stuelke ' s past experience warrants his crit- icizing high school players ' tactics. He was captain of the Coe College basketball team for two years and was chosen all-state guard in his senior term. Mr. Stuelke was fullback on his college football team for three years, in one of which his team won the Midwest championship. Homer Townsend Clair Daggett Edward Jewett C. H. Carter That Southern Accent At one end of the field toiling with a bunch of eager, green boys you will find Coach Edward J. Jew- ett, a soft spoken gentleman, yet always able to get a point across. Coach Jewett just completed his seventh year as assistant coach at Thomas Jefferson and has had an av- erage season this year — winning three games, losing three, and tieing one. Coach Jewett is handicapped in his coaching by the fact that he can use only juniors and sophomores on his squad. Most of the boys are sophomores with very lit- tle experience. The Omaha teams have the advantage in that they can use every boy that can ' t make the first team. Even considering this Coach Jewett ' s teams win about fifty percent of their games. Coach Jewett attended Simpson college, and was prominent in football while there. Mr. Jewett teaches general science at Thomas Jefferson. Nice Drive, Nick Standing on the first tee swinging a driver, Mr. C. H. Carter, golf coach, watched one of his golfers pelt the ball far down the fairway for some 185 yards. Nice drive, Sam, he complimented. Then ap- proaching his tee Coach Carter stooped and placed his ball. Stepping back he took one preliminary swing and proceeded to send the ball, with a well executed stroke, sailing through the air to land twenty-five yards beyond Sam ' s ball. Thus Coach Carter demonstrated how to play the game. In fact he showed his boys how to play so well that they were able to win eight of nine matches in 1935 and are scheduled to repeat their performance this year. When he is not teaching or knocking around the golf course, Coach Carter often busies himself with making carved pictures from wood. Mr. Carter is also a ping-pong enthusiast. He Starts Them Of all the arduous tasks in the world, most coach- es agree that teaching freshmen how to play football is the hardest of all. High school freshmen are just at the stage where their gangly bodies seem to be nothing but lengthy sections of arms and legs that tangle and trip them. Coach Townsend takes over these boys and teaches them to play football just when they are at their most awkward stage. Mr. Townsend leaves his algebra classes at the end of the sixth period and goes onto that field of carnage, sometimes called a gridiron, to show his freshman boys improved method of knocking the wind from the frail lungs of their fellow classmen. After the freshmen have completed their football sea- son, Mr. Townsend offers his diversified services to the eighth-grade basketball squad. Townsend instructs the junior basketball enthusiasts through the winter season, often practicing at 6:45 a. m. When his team practices so early in the morning, Coach Townsend barely has time to get the sleep out of the players ' eyes (and his own too) in time for that first period algebra class. He Can Take It If after six periods of diligent studying, any stu- dent of Thomas Jefferson desires to top off the day hilariously it is suggested that a visit to the drill room immediately after school would be enlightening. For it is here, Mr. C. E. Daggett, wrestling coach, shows his hug and grunters how it is done. After putting his stout-backed group through their strenuous limbering up exercises, Mr. Daggett gives per- sonal instruction to his wrestling aspirants. After being shown a diabolical method of eliciting groans and grim- aces from their fellow beings, the wrestlers pair off and perfect their new technique for performing legitimate human torture. Mr. Daggett takes it upon himself to put some of the heavier weight boys through the mill in person — one Norman Abrahamson in particular. When these two gentlemen of the mat tangle the fur soon begins to fly. In less time than it takes to tell, one of the groping contestants floors the other with a no-one knows-what hold and is busily and joyously endeavoring to place his struggling adversary in a horizontal position that allows both of his shoulders to embrace the mat simultaneously. As soon as the contestants establish that the more ag- gressive member of this litttle get-together is none other than Mr. Daggett. By dint of much heart feet grunting and muscular exertion, Norman arises from his more or less recumbert position, and manages to rid himself of the clinging Mr. Daggett. This sudden display of energy from a usually inert body takes the coach by surprise and he allows Norman to escape from his clutch. Both men finally get to their feet, puffing like steam locomotives on a steep grade. Norman leads with two grunts and Mr. Daggett retaliates with a grimace that does justice to any professional. Then the antag- onists place their arms around each other in a fashion that leads one to believe they possess some strange af- fection for one another. And the scuffle goes on once more till both drop from exhaustion rather than because of the usual overthrow. Knitter De Luxe Miss Hannah Nyholm Although a certain teacher of chemistry and physics has constantly made it quite clear that perpetual motion is an impossibility, perhaps better acquaintance with Miss Hannah Nyholm might tend to weaken his argu- ments. Girls who come in contact with Thomas Jef- ferson girls ' athletic coach will affirm the fact that at no time does Miss Nyholm have an idle moment. At the end of a day consisting of five physical education classes and a free period, Miss Nyholm may be found in her office, making out reports, studying Spanish, or knitting, or conducting games in the gym, or attending games in which T. J. girls participate at other schools. Not satisfied with a mere knowledge of French, Miss Nyholm is taking a Spanish course in Omaha, and certain nights of the week may be found at an uptown bowling establishment, where she is acquiring a knowl- edge of the technicalities and intricacies of the art of bowling. From close observation of all activities, one would be led to believe that her most enjoyable moments are spent while knitting (whether it ' s in the truck On the way to a game or at lunch period in her office.) Miss Hannah Nyholm Girls Close Ball Tournament When the girls ' class volleyball tournament at Thomas Jefferson ended this season the winning team consisted of Leone Rockwell, Dora Bird, Gene Bock- witz, and Virginia Leslie. Members of the team winning second place were; Bernice Carlson, Marjorie Clark, Ruby Gourley, and Elvesta Hofler.

JewettV 1935 second team had a fairly successive season this year. The Yannigans won three, lost three, and played one scoreless tie game. North Omaha ' s second team was the first oppon- ent of the Yannigans and the lads of Coach Jewett re- ceived a 13-0 spanking. Thomas Jefferson threatened several times but didn ' t have the punch necessary to score. Don Souser, sophomore halfback, and Garner, guard, were best for the reserves. Meeting a powerful Omaha Central team on their opponent ' s field, the Yannigans received a 27-6 trounc- ing. Thomas Jefferson scored on a forward pass from O ' Dell to Jack Fry in the second quarter. Central out- weighed the seconds considerably and with their power plays clicking rolled up four touchdowns and three ex- tra points. Thomas Jefferson seconds won its first intercity battle from the Abe Lynx reserves, October 14, by a score of 6-0. The victory was the first in three years for a Jefferson second team over Lincoln. Couppee, T. J. fullback, scored for the Yannigans on a plunge through the line. Carrol and Souser were the best for Coach Jewett ' s team. Journeying to Creighton Frep the reserves played the young Jays to a scoreless tie. Prep threatened only once, when they drove to the T. J. 16-yard line, but the second team line held there. Couppee and Souser got away for many runs in mid-field but bogged down near the goa ' l line. Creighton Prep was previously unbeaten and untied. Tech defeated the Yannigans 13-0 on the home field. The visitors scored early in the first quarter on a pass and again late in the last quarter on a plunge. Pass for extra point was good. Manly Carroll played out- standing ball for T. J. Benson ' s seconds were the next opponents of the Yannigans being defeated on the local field 2-0. Ager accounted for the T. J. points when he tackled a Ben- son man behind his goal line. Several times the sec- onds threatened to score only to have the Bensonites hold. Couppee, Ager and Carrol were standouts for the seconds. Journeying to Glenwood on November 19, the sec- onds handed the Glenwood reserves a 14-0 setback. Souser scored on a 1 5 -yard run, and Suder plunged the extra point. Later in the third quarter Couppe inter- cepted a Glenwood pass on the 50 and easily scored. Suder made the extra point. Shannon, Suder, and Couppee were best for T. J. With the South game called off, the reserves con- tinued to practice against the first team. Members of this team will probably be on the first string next sea- son. The Great Parade Sporting gay scarfs, hats, dresses, and other articles of wearing apparel, some fifty faithful Thomas Jeffer- son students conducted a Turkey Day game parade of their own. There was the surprising total of eight cars in the parade. It was necessary to arouse some of the paraders from bed in order to fill the cars with screaming per- sons. After racing pell-mell up and down Broadway, the paraders returned to the local high school to pick up others. One more car actually joined, and the troupe swung in and out of traffic as they roared and steamed through the quiet streets of the city. Horns were honked until the batteries wore out and then youthful lungs took up the noise-making with far better results. Frantically flying orange and white streamers were soon ripped off by a chilly wind that had all participants well bundled in their warmest garments. Statistics of the parade follow: Average speed of all cars 51 m. p. h. Average number of occupants Eight Average number of suits of extra-heavy under- wear worn Three Temperature Far too cold Car making most speed Undecided Number of red lights not heeded Two Longest continuous honking 4 min., 30 sec. Accidents None Frosh Review For the first time in six years the Thomas Jeffer- son freshman football eleven failed to annex the city championship. The chief reason for the freshmens ' poor season was their lack of weight. They averaged 127 pounds to their oppoents ' 143 pounds. Coach Townsend ' s boys opened the season against Thomas Jefferson ' s traditional foe, Abraham Lincoln. The running attack of the Lynx was the deciding factor in Thomas Jefferson ' s 13-0 defeat. Hurt of A. L. scored the first touchdown on a line plunge and converted the extra point. A. L. was able to score once again on the T. J. aggregation before the final whistle. I. S. D. registered another 13-0 defeat against T. J. displaying a power drive that backed the freshmen to their very goal line. Defending their goal on their own one yard line, the T. J. team held the Deaf boys for three downs, but gave way under the impetus of a pow- erful center crash. I. S. D. ' s second touchdown and extra point came early in the third quarter. Jenks, T. J. halfback, suffered a broken jaw when he tackled an I. S. D. back. Spurred on by two defeats, the yearlings entered the Bloomer fray with the characteristic Thomas Jef- J First, Second String First row: Turpin, Richardson, Harnly, Lewis. Second row: B.

J. halfback, started the fireworks when he scored on a long 5 5-yard run. Be- fore long, however, the Bloomer outfit caught its stride and scored 1 3 points before the Yellowjackets could .again make a counter. The gam e ended with the score 13-6. The three remaining games resulted in dishearten- ing defeats for the young Yellowjackets. The Abe Lin- coln freshmen dropped them by the wayside to the tune of 13-0. Playing I. S. D. for the second time, Thomas Jefferson was unable to check a series of line plunges that resulted in a 14-0 victory for the mutes. The last •game of the freshman season matched Thomas Jefferson with Bloomer. Bloomer put Townsend ' s boys on de- fense for most of the contest as they won the game 14-0. Those who played are Harvey McHiernan, An- drews, Pierce, Bankus, Larsen, Corey, Orne, Conrad, Stuyter, Ramsey, Garrean, Sorenson, Tisher, Walton, Schuelzky, and Moore. It is true that the 1935 frosh have experienced a rather disappointing season to initiate them into their football careers. It does not so much matter, however, that they met with defeat in all their games as it does, that they have gained invaluable experience through competition with better teams. No coach can tell just who his best players are until they find themselves on the under side of the pile. Then, he is able to see who the fighters and battlers really are. Mr. Townsend has prepared these freshmen for Mr. Jewett ' s second team and Coach Stuelke ' s first team squad. For this he de- serves a vote of thanks in appreciation of his efforts. Better luck next year Coach Townsend! Freshmen Squad Armistice Day Tackles It ' s Two More For T. J. Before a practically frozen crowd of 500 spectators, Bruce Wright enabled the Thomas Jefferson gridders to defeat the Abe Lincolmen team 7-2, Thanksgiving day on the T. J. field. Abe Lin- coln scored on a safety after a blocked punt. This was the second game between the rivals this season, the Orangemen winning both. Playing on a hard frozen ground both teams resorted to bas- ketball shoes in place of regular cleated shoes. In some parts of the field ice stood on the ground. A. L. kicked off to T. J. with Gruver receiving the kick and running it up to the 25. First down after first down was made by the locals but penalties and a stub- born A. L. defense kept the Orangemen from scoring in the first quarter. A. L. could do nothing with the ball on offense but on defense played a better game than the previous meeting on Arm- istice Day. Opening the second quarter with A. L. having the ball on the 25, the Lynx resorted to a spread formation. Leon Skelton went back to pass and threw a long one which little Bruce Wright inter- cepted to scamper 45 yards for the only Orange score. Several good blocks helped him on his way over the slippery ice. Extra point was made on a short pass from Gruver to Harnly. A. L. kicked to T. J. with Arch receiving the kick and returning to the 35. Here, after receiving,- a 15-yar.l penalty, Wright ran a joke Armistice Day Conflict Y H rj l •• ■« Ak Season ' s Openers punt to within six inches of a first down. A. L. failed to gain and punted. After several penalties and two incomplete passes, T. J. punted to Fuller as the half ended. Thomas Jefferson received the kickoff in the second half and started a smashing drive down the fieli. With Arch, Gruver, and Wright running the ball T. J. soon had a first down on the Abe Lincoln 10. Here Wright fumbled after he was down and A. L. recovered the ball. A. L. punted to Wright and the locals were at a stand still as the quarter ended. Having to punt against the wind on the first play of the fourth quarter, A. L. took the ball on the A. L. 45, with a pass from Fuller to Williams called complete because of interference on the Jefferson 9. Here the Orange line smashe;! the Lynx backs to the ground for a total 4-yard loss. Losing the ball on downs T. J. took the ball on the first play and received a 15-yard pen- alty. This put the ball on the Jay ' s 1-yard line. Wright ran from punt formation and tore his way through for a six yard gain, but received a 5-yard penalty for crawling, which again put the ball back on the 1-yard line. On the next play Skelton blocked the kick and Gruver received for a safety. Neither team could do much after this score but A. L. resorted to a last minute passing attack which failed. Ralph Pickens, Gotthold, and Harnly were best on the Orange line while Gruver, Wright and Arch were best in the backfield. • ■Jrl c u Armistice Day Action F?4P Humes Pickens I t '  Turkey Day Close Ups r ...3ku Rickets Rubenstein Saunders Travis Wright n Class Volleyball Teams First row: Erma Dray, Kathryn Gorham, Anita Lorenzen, Eileen Thurston, Ardeth Pearey, Dorothy Wal- lace, Aileen V.

Girls ' Doubles Team Wins Elvesta Hofler, Evelyn Sweetman, and Harriet Lar- sen, composing the eleventh grade doubles team of Thomas Jefferson High School, won the city champion- ship this season. Abraham Lincoln High School and Thomas Jeffer- son were each represented by three teams — the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades — each had to lose three games before being eliminated. Because the A. L. twelfth lost none and the A. L. tenth lost but one, it was necessary for the T. J. eleventh to play six succes- sive games, alternating between the two A. L. teams, to win the championship. Girls playing on the T. J. tenth and twelfth grade teams were: Grace Jay, Dorothy Wallace, and Aileen V. Larsen for the twelfth and Marian Kelly, Lorraine Rawl- ings and Kathryn Gorham for the tenth. Annual Custom As in previous years the Thomas Jefferson Forum has again sponsored the homerooms in donating bas- kets of food to the needy. All homerooms donated at least one basket of food, some two or more. This practice of giving to the needy is indeed a worthy one. Students of Thomas Jefferson have al- ways given with the idea of helping the needy. The Forum should not be forgotten in this worthy work. Committees are usually chosen in the homerooms to in- vestigate certain families whose names have been given to the school. Another committee is usually named to secure baskets and decorate them. A list of foods nec- essary to make a bountiful meal is made up and each student of the homeroom brings a certain item. Mem- bers of the homeroom deliver the baskets the day before Thanksgiving.
