As the good ship Thornton sails on through the years, may this log book again re- mind us of the happy years we spent on board her decks preparing for the longer voyages of life to come. Thornton is making history. May this be a firm stepping-stone on its march to progress.

And the ship which was to carry for years to come a variety of passengers and crew was launched on the Sea of Education. The good ship got under way in September 1892 under the name of Harvey High School, the first ship of its type to set sail in Thornton Town- ship. At this time the captaincy was filled by Mr. F. L. Miller assisted by Instructors J. E. Cable and Miss Bell Porter. In 1898 other portions of the township demanded a share in the ship, which resulted in ninety-six persons securing passage for the maiden voyage of the re-christened Thornton Township High School. Second Mate Cable was promoted to captain the vessel and the following were selected as members of the Navigating Board: W. H. Miller, F. G. Howland, F. A. Braley, J. C. Howe, and Mrs. James A. Lawson. Demand for passage then became so great that the old ship was abandoned and a new one, the Thornton, launched on May 25, 1900. A change in the navigating board occurred in 1908 when Captain Cable retired and Mr. L. W. Smith took over that position. The staff at that time consisted of W. H. Pease, J. H. McKee, Dr. T. A. Noble, and L. A. Dolton. In 1910 the passenger list increased so much that it was necessary to vote bonds for the construction of an addition to the stern of the ship. Accordingly the Navigating Board presented an issue of 5140,000 to the shareholders in the township. The issue failed in February, 1910, but was approved in August of the same year. At the retiring of Captain Smith in 1919 the navigating board again changed. Mr. William E. McVey at this time was transferred from the ship Ohio University to the captaincy of the Thornton Members of the board under Captain McVey were Dr. T. A. Noble, W. G. Morse, Charles E. Waterman, G. H. Gibson, A. H. McDougall, and G. N. Burnett. These officers remained the same until 1927. On the retirement of W. G. Morse, E. P. Dickey was elected to his position. W. R. Brandt assumed Dr. T. A. Noble's rank when the latter passed away. In 1922 the tugboat Dalton Branch was built as an accommodation to persons from that districtg however, in 1929 the tug was no longer necessary and was abandoned. In 1925 the shareholders voted S345,000 for the erection of storerooms and cabins in the stern of the ship and for motor and recreation rooms on the larboard side athwart the stern. The progress of the good ship Thornton in the athletic, musical, dramatic, and academic seas is the work of the navigating board. It has been through their faithful, courageous, and loyal service to the ship and its shareholders that the Thornton has been enabled to meet adequately the growing needs of the township.

IRENE STATON JAMES GRENIER Secretary Treasurer Second Class Heave ho! The second class began a prosperous voyage on the good Ship Thornton by an early election of officers to head this group of enthusiastic passengers. Fred Ring, a competent junior in athletics as well as a popular leader, was elected president of the class, Irene Vandenberg was selected as vice-president, Irene Staton was chosen for the office of secretary, and the office of treasurer was well filled by James Grenier. On November 1 the class enjoyed a masquerade Hallowe'en party given by the Hrst class. The recreation room was appropriately decorated in orange and black. The Musical Kings furnished the music for dancing, the main feature of the evening. Delightful refreshments were served. Being the first social event of the year for both classes, the party was received with great delight by both classes, and was an outstanding success. In March the second class returned the invitation by inviting the first class to a hard times St. Patrick's Day party given in the ship's recreation room. On May 16 the second class joine-d the first class in the annual first and second class banquet and prom, given in the dining' room and recreation room. The girls representing the second class on the Girls' club board of control were: Collette Scully, Marguerite Begnoche, Ellen Thompson, Ruth Muilenberg, and Gladys Schroeder. Those boys on the Boys' club board of directors were: Harry Smuczynski, Rudy Zajicek, and Eugene Barna. Under the guidance of Mr. R. V. Smith, second mate, this class enjoyed a full year of prosperity. Page Forty-six 1 f 54:- Kl A . J l , I I 1 X, I I N Il Se. li? f UN gx A ee is M. Srmwt, D. Burnside, M. Mueller, G. Sturm, P. Cohen.

Presifdlent Second Vice-Pres. EDWARD ONYON ELSE DOOLEWERDT Secretary Treasurer Third Class Mr. C. R. Maddox becoming permanent junior officer, the second class began itssecond voyage under the Third Mate J. F. Zimmerman, their new class prin- cipal. Edward Kipley, a popular and capable passenger aboard the Thornton was elected to the presidency early in the voyage. His assistants were: Jack Hansen, first vice-presidentg Edward Burnett, second vice-presidentg Edward Onyon, secretary, and Else Doolewerdt, treasurer. Many representatives of this class took a leading part in the organizations and activities aboard the ship. The girls elected to represent the third class on the Girls' club board of control were: Doris Miller, Dorothy Wall, Margaret Reid, and Genevieve Halloran. The boys representing the class on the Boys, club board of directors were Carl Meyer and Edward Burnett. On March 20 the third class gave an afternoon party in the ship's recrea- tion room. The party consisted of stunts, dancing, and refreshments. A large attendance enjoyed the fun of the afternoon. The class held its annual picnic in the spring of the voyage with an excursion to the Thornton Forest Preserve. During the voyage the imembers of the second class had home room instruc- tions every Tuesday and Wednesday. Here they received parliamentary train-- ing, besides being trained in the rules of etiquette. Usually the second year in high school is not as interesting as the others due to lack of activities in which this class may participate, but not so in this class. Due to the capable leadership of Mr. J. F. Zimmerman, the class oilicers, and the enthusiasm of the members of the class themselves, every project under- taken was carried out to its ultimate success. Page Fi fty-two V 'S 'l .Q ' 1 X? N.

Page Fifty-six IIVIIQIIEXII1-l M IIEIN THORNTONITE ROBERT DYER ROBERT BENTLEY MARIAN MANSFIELD First Vice-Pres. President Second Vlce-Pres. VIOLET LINDSTROM BERNICE JOHNSON Secretary Treasurer Steerage Approximately one thousand five hundred forty-one passengers boarded the Thornton on September 2 preparatory for the 1930-31 voyage. Of this number six hundred sixty-nine were Steerage passengers, the largest number of steerage passengers who ever boarded the Thornton, Led by their capable adviser, Mr. C. R. Maddox, fourth mate, the steerage took an early interest in all activities aboard the f'Thornton. Because of the large number of members and, consequently, their inability to become acquainted with each other, the election of class officers was not held until in December. At that time the following officers were chosen by their mates 'to lead them in their first year: Robert Bentley, presidehrg Robert Dyer, first vice-presidentg Marion Mans- field, second vice-presidentj Violet Lindstrom, secretary, and Bernice Johnson, treasurer. A large number of boys turned out for football eager to do their part in making a good team for Thornton. On Tuesdays and Wednesdays during home room watch instructions in etiquette were given the steerage passengers. They learned the history of the Hag and how to use it. Proper methods for studying with the best use of their time was also a part of their program. Many of the home rooms had interesting programs on subjects of special interest to passengers new aboard the ship. The keen interest of the steerage passengers in the affairs of the ship was shown by the large number of entrants in the two oratorical contests. Ernst Pyclik placed in the Washington contest. Marian Mansfield placed third in an essay contest sponsored by the Harvey Real Estate Board. Thomas Nesbet was a regular of the light-weight basketball team.

Barrie, was presented in the ship's fo'c'stle on February 19, 20, and 21 under the direction of Mr. E. C. Ohlert. Lord Loam, member of parliament experimenting in equality, and his aristocratic family went on a yacht trip. They were wrecked on an island. Crichton announced his engagement to Lady Mary, Lord Loam's eldest daughter, who was, supposedly, engaged to Lord Brocklehurst, just as a rescue ship was sighted. Many complications arose upon their arrival back in England, but all ended well. The following cast was chosen: Crichton, the admirable butler, Bernard Beck, Earl of Loam, Clinton Diekmang Lady Mary, Lady Agatha, and Lady Catherine, Loam's three daughters, Genevieve Halloran, Barbara Smith, and Mildred Bloom respectively, Wolley, the brilliant author, Eugene Barnag Reverend Treherne, Gordon Clausseng Lord Brocklehurst, Lady Mary's fiance, Dudley Lockremg Lady Brocklehurst, an aristocratic snoop, Julia Vrooman, February 19 and 215 Margaret Reid, February 20.

Lawrence Allemong as King Eric VIH, central figure of the play, was merely the Queen's Husband when first introduced. He was constantly disturbed by Clinton Diekman as Lord Birten, Secretary of State, and by Earl Reitz as Gen- eral Northrup, the explosivecommander of military forces. Queen Martha, portrayed by Julia Vrooman, had arranged a marriage be- tween her daughter, Princess Anne, as played by Marion McDougall, and Prince William of Greck, played by Bernard Beck. But Anne, a modern young woman who preferred to make her own choice, was desperately in love with Granton, her father's secretary, portrayed by George Frasor. In the meantime Lord Birten and Northrup had brought the country to the verge of a revolution by ignoring the appeals of the Liberals. Cedric Forbes as Dr. Fellman and John Tienstra as Mr. Laker were two radical Liberals whose leadership led the revolutionists to bombard the palace. King Eric handled the situation with characteristic nonchalance. The Queen returned from America. The day was set for Am1e's wedding and the Prince had arrived. The Queen was waiting and the band was playinvg, but at the last moment the King had dared to outwit the Queen and had quietly assisted Anne to escape with the man she loved. Other interesting characters were Merl Wiseman as Phipps, the King's foot- mang David Cohen as Major Blentg Marion Smith and Isabella Carr as ladies-in- waitingg and Walter Septoski and Eugene Drolet as soldiers.

Boys' Glee Club The good ship Thornton was fortunate in having on its passenger list the Boys' Glee club directed by Instructor Florence W. Samuels. In harmony with the Girls' Glee club the boys sang Christmas carols in December. At a pep meeting preceding the Bloom-Thornton basketball tilt of Febru- ary 6, the Boys' club sang two popular and well-liked selections, Cornfield Melodies and The Woman in the Shoe. The Boys' Glee club contributed two numbers at the ship's May concert held in the fo'c'stle. The Boys' Glee club was organized several years ago by Mrs. Isabel Loomis Montelius. It owes all its recent successes, however, to Miss Samuels, who has had much experience in singing and directing: Each year vacant places are left by members who have finished their cruise or who have failed to re-embark. In order to choose those voices best suited to fill these vacancies, tryouts are held at the beginning of each voyage. Those competing for membership in the club sing some popular song by which their voices are judged. Members of the club and the part they sang were: first tenors, Chapman, Hoffman, Forbes, Zajicek, Claussen, Monroe, Koester, and Murphy, second tenors, Berkeley, Connell, Frasor, Miller, Paarlberg, Smith, Rouse, and Water- man, baritone, Cohen, Lockrem, Lynn, Palmer, Spencer, and Kennedy, bass, Beck, Clark, Drolet, Grenier, D.

Girls' Glee' Club Of the large num.ber of girls who competed in the tryfouts for membership at the beginning of the voyage forty-three were selected to compose the Girls' Glee club. This club was organized for the purpose of promoting among the passengers an interest in the selection and rendition of classical music. ' Just before docking for the Christmas vacation the combined Boys' and Girls' Gle-e clubs sang carols below the ship's main companionway. A few of the carols sung were: Joy to the World, Cantique de Noel, Silent Night, and The First Noel. An exceedingly difficult selection, the Hallelujah Chorus from the Messiah was also given. As their part in the annual concert given in the spring of the voyage in the fo'c'stle of the ship the Girls' Glee club gave The Sleigh by Kuntz and several negro spirituals including Jump Up and Listen to the Lambs. Members of the organization and the parts they sang were: first sopranos, L. Barrus, D. Barry, H. Berkley, D. Chambers, M. Fork, L. Fradgley, M. Hurst, H. Mahin, J. McVey, R. Penry, W. Potts, M.

Composed of fifty-six instruments, the band played at all football encounters, the Flag Day exercises, and the school festival at Palos Park. At the solo and' ensemble contest held on the ship, HJ. Sterling Morton, the Thornton was represented by three ensembles. These were: brass quartette, Robert Phelan, Hrst cornet, Frank Bright, second cornet, Laurence Morrison, third cornet, John Tienstra, trombone, woodwind quartette, Ernest Peebles, first clarinet, William Kane, second clarinet, Carl Garry, alto clarinet, Donald Haines, bass clarinet, saxophone sgxtet, Claude Spencer, first alto, Nellie Bielfeldt, second alto, Harrison Turner, first tenor, Louis Carr, second tenor, Walter Kroon, baritone saxophone, Thomas Pearson, bass saxophone. At the band contest held on board the good ship J, Sterling Morton Sat- urday, March 28, the naval band competed, playing the new C0pis Colis !PetteeJ, Don Quixote, parts 1, 2, 3, fSafranelJ, and overture Yelva CReissigerJ. On May 1 and 2 the naval band presented its share of the annual concert held in the fo'c'stle. The first part of the presentation was taken up by three of the best soloists and the three ensembles. During the latter part of the pro- gram the band played several marches including the new Copis Colis fPetteeJ, Washington Grays fGrajulal, Vanished Army fAlfredJ, Anthes fGuildJ, and a southern patrol entitled Old South.

Du-ring the past voyage the orchestra played at Skidd-ing, the Junior College annual play, The Ad-mirable Crichton, presentation of the Boys' and Girls' clubs, and The Queen's Husband, performance of the first class pas- sengers. Under the supervision of Mr. William H. Montelius the orchestra pre- sented its annual concert on May 28. Featured on this program was a violin solo, Spanish Symplro-ny fLaloJ, played by Burton Isaacs of the Junior Col- lege and accompanied by the orchestra. The orchestra also played Unfinished Symphony, Oberon, Three Dances from Henry VIII, Two Guitars, and Valse Tristef' The following were at the head of the various sections: Edward Murphy, first violin, Elizabeth Thompson, second violing Harry' Krogh, viola, Ruth Muilen- berg, cello, Robert Phelan, cornetg Harold Holtz, clarinetg William Gentry, William Hurson, and Phillip Hawley, drums, Thomas Pearson, saxophoneg Arnold Woodrich, flute, Everet Shipe, French horny John Tienstra, tromboneg Dana Connell, bass, Frank Bielawski, xylarimbag and Irene Olson, Mary McCall, and Clarence Grall, pianists.

Claude Spencer, Nick Calpeno, Thomas Pearson Musical Kings During the voyage of 1930-31 a group of students under the direction of Miss Florence W. Samuels of the faculty organized a student orchestra known as the Musical Kings. Throughout the past voyage this group of 'musicians again played its part in furthering the successes of the varil-Jus social activities. The orchestra had its first public appearance at a first and second class party given in the recreation room on November 1. They next performed at a language department party given on December 12 and earlier at an afternoon party given by the third class passengers. On March 13 the first class, as a part of its campaign to raise rnlsney, pre- sented Mr. E. Laurant, the magician, in the ship's fo'c'stle. The Musical Kings ably furnished music for intermissions in the program. On the following night, March 14, they again played at a St. Patrick's party given by the first and second classes in the ship's recreation room. Much of the success of the third party on March 20 was due to this orchestra which played for the dances. This was also true of the annual Boys' club stag given for the dads on March 21. The season for the orchestra closed with the first and second class banquet. The orchestra played only popular dance music. Practices were held twice a week, Wednesdays and Thursdays, during the fifth watch with Miss F. Samuels as director. Those making up the group were: saxophones, Thomas Pearson, Nicholas Calpeno, and Claude Spencerg cornet, Robert Phelan and Robert Kosterg tuba, Dana Connellg trombone, John Tienstrag drummers, William Hurson and Howard Catleyg and piano, Clarence Grall and Gordon Claussen.

Accordingly, the ship's official newspaper was begun in 1914 under the supervision of Miss Clara I. Stalker. On the present tour the paper was published every two Weeks by the jour- nalism class Lllldel' the direction of Mr. O. Fred Umbaugh, supervisor of publica- tions, and Miss Emelia Novotny, instructor in journalism. The staff of the paper remained about the same. Marion Ingrahain was the editor, Helen Sieburg, asso- ciate editorg Allen Shanks, business manager, Edward Murphy, advertising man- ager, Florence Nagel, Girls' clubg Wilbert Meinheit, Boys' club, Betty Pfeifer, exchanges, Edward Van Laningham, jokes, Cynthia Maddox, personals, Vincent Parker, Jack Lynn, and Jack Webster, athletics. The remainder of the journal- ism class served as copy and proof readers and reporters. The 1931 log was compiled under the supervision of Mr. O. Fred Um- baugh, who has worked unceasingly in the publication of every log of the ship. At the beginning of the cruise Martha Brown was appointed editor-in-chief. The journalism class was early instructed in the fundamentals of journal- ism. They all started out as reporters, learning copy and proof reading at the same time. The art of good make-up was also learned. The newspaper and log were both financed by advertising. The advertising manager and his associates spent much time getting the copy for the ads from the merchants of the township. During the cruise the class members went on several excursions to the mainland visiting places of special interest to journalists. Page Seventy-three THORNTONVI In Ernst Pyclik, Robert Dyer, Bernard Beck, Robert Kinsey Marian Mansfield, Margaret Wall Extra-Curricular Contestants During the 1930-31 voyage Thornton sailed through a successful, al- though not spectacular, cruise in literary and oratorical contests. In the early fall of the voyage the Harvey Land Association sponsored an essay contest on What Makes a Home Livable. Martha Rice, second class, won the first prize of fifteen dollars, and Marion Mansfield, steerage, won the third prize of five dollars. Soon after weighting anchor, Bernard Beck, first class, won third prize, a season ticket to the Goodman Theatre, in a dramatic review of The Fire- brand, sponsored by the Goodman Theatre and the Scholastic Press Guild of Greater Chicago. In February the Union League club of Chicago and the high schools of Cook county sponsored an oratorical Contest on Washington's Ideals of Citizen- ship. Dudley Lockrem, Ernst Pyclik, Robert Dyer, Martha Nicolson, and Cleo Keyes won the opportunity to compete in the finals. Ernst Pyclik was chosen to represent Thornton in the district contest held on February 19. He failed to place. It has long been the custom for Thornton to enter the Daily News Oratorical contest which is held each year. The subject has always been on some phase of the Constitution of the United States and has filled its purpose by acquaint- ing the contestants with their government and better fitting them to be citizens of their country. As usual many passengers entered the contest. The following- five were chosen to enter the semi-finals: Robert Kinsey, Margaret Wall, Janet Baum- gartner, Ernst Pyclik, and Marion Mansfield. From this group Robert Kinsey and Margaret Wall were selected to enter the finals held on March 18. Page Seventy-four lHORNTONI'l'li Bernard Sheahan, Coach E. C. Ohliert, Harry Forbes Herbert Miller, Earl Meserve, Norma Andresen, Robert Kinsey, John Tjemmes Debaters Almost from the beginning of the chartering of the Thornton it has been the custom of passengers to organize debate crews. During the voyage of 1929-30 it was impossible to organize a crew because of the pressure of outside activi- ties among manly of the students. At that time debating was purely an extra-curricular activity. With the organization of another fourth year course in English this year, some of the art of debating was taught in class. From those classes the present crews were chosen. The passengers chosen to compose crews were: Bernard Sheahan, John Tjemmes, Herbert Miller, Dorothy Ortman, Earl Meserve, Norma Andresen, and Harry Forbes, all first class passengers, and Robert Kinsey, third class. On Friday, March 6, Thornton met the Sterling Morton. It was a non- decision debate, but the debaters gained much experience. Two weeks later Friday, March 20, a crew from the good ship Rockford of Rockford, Illinois, boarded the Thornton for the first decision debate of the voyage. The question was, Resolved: t'That the chain store system is detrimental to the American peoplef' The decision was awarded to Rockford on delivery of their arguments. The constructive and rebuttal speeches of the crews were almost equal, but in delivery the boarding crew was superior. The Thornton negative crew was composed of Bernard Sheahan, John Tjemmes, and Robert Kinsey. On the same day the Thornton affirmative crew composed of Herbert Miller, Dorothy Ortman, and Norma Andresen boarded the Sterling Morton to debate the question. April 2 the debaters met Morgan Military Academy. The- team lost after a well-contested debate.

Secretary EDWARD HOFFMAN MARION McDOUGALL Treasurer Pres. Glee Club MARGARET NORTON Sec. Glee Club Spanish Club Among the numerous lands visited in her quest for knowledge the Thorn- ton delighted in docking at the ports of Spanish countries. There those passen- gers enrolled in the Spanish classes learned much about that conquering, adven- turous race-a race that played a large part in the discovery and settling of the world. In December the Spanish club, in cooperation with the other language clubs of the ship, sponsored a party in the ship's recreation hall. An imitation of the Spanish tango given by Louis Hanson and Bruce Waddell was greatly enjoyed by those present. The party was voted a huge success by all. At the January meeting Captain Mc'Vey enter-tained the members with an illustrated talk on the life of the Philippines. Miss Dickson in costume described the interesting dress of the Philippines. A group of Mexicans from Chicago boarded the Thornton in February and gave an unusual program on Mexican customs. An interesting part of the life of the Spaniard is the music. The Spanish troubadour is famous throughout the world for his serenades. In order to study further this interesting music a Spanish Glee club was organized for the first time. Regular meetings were held every two weeks. Here they learned to really love and appreciate the song of the Spaniard. Those chosen to guide this musical group were: Marion McDougall, presidentg Margaret Norton, secre- tary-treasurerg and Marion McCall, pianist. Much of the success of the two clubs was due to Miss Marjorie Keiler of the Spanish department. Page Seventy-eight THORNTONITE XXX' I ELAINE CLEVELAND JAAN INT-HOUT RALPH YOUNG COLLETTE SCULLY President Secretary Treasurer Vice-President French Club French is a well-known language throughout the world and its popularity aboard the Thornton was unquestionable. Since its introduction as a subject available to the Thornton passengers, its importance had increased immensely, and, in order to give interested passengers opportunities to indulge their whims in the studying of this language, a French club was organized in 1924. Early in the fall of the voyage the club elected the following members to lead their adventures in France during the 1930-31 voyage. Elaine Cleveland, first class, president, C-ollette Scully, second class, vice-presidentg Jaan Int-Hout, first class, secretary, and Ralph Young, first class, treasurer. Since the voyage of 1929-30 the club has been under the advisership of Miss Florence Wunderlich, French teacher. Regular monthly meetings were held during the past voyage in Miss Wunderlich's stateroom, number 207. After a short business meeting interesting programs of French stunts and plays aided the members in learning the customs of the French people. On Wednesday, N-ovember 12, the club held 'an interesting .meeting in state- room 207. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the coming language club party which it was sponsoring. After a discussion of the party two stunts, Cinderella and Little Red Riding Hood, were acted in French by some of the members. Refreshments of taffy apples were served. The language party was held on Friday, December 12, in the recreation room. An unusually large attendance proved the success of the affair. Another exceedingly interesting meeting was held on Wednesday, February 11. After a short business meeting all those who attended separated into groups of -six and played French games. The games proved to be very amusing and helped everyone in having a good time. Page Seventy-nine THORNTONITE IKXN NXXXXX ff CLEMENS MADY MARY ALLEN MILDRED BLOOM BETTY BENSON President Secretary Treasurer Vice-President Latin Club Great progress was shown in the growth and learning of the Latin club during the 1930-31 voyage. The club was first organized in 1928 under the leadership of Miss E. Scribner, instructor of Latin. Each year the Latin stu- dents have evinced great interest in the further development of the club, and, with this interest as a stimulus, the Latin club is gradually raising its standing among the leading organizations aboard the ship. The club made an early start with an election of officers, held on October 20. The Virgil class, composed of third and fourth year Latin students acted as nominating committee. The entire club then voted on these chosen candi- dates. Those chosen to bear the greater share of responsibilities of the club were: Clemens Mady, presidentg Betty Benson, vice-presidentg Mary Allen, sec- retaryg and Mildre-d Bloom, treasurer. On Friday, December 12, the Latin club joined the French, Spanish, and German clubs in giving a language party in the ship's recreation room. Dancing to music furnished by the Musical Kings was enjoyed by all. Re- freshments consisting of butterscotch sundaes, cookies, and candy were served. A short but interesting meeting was held on Tuesday, February 10. Games and piano playing furnished the main feature of the entertainment. Many other interesting meetings were held through-out the year with always a little social side sprinkled in with that of the business, for it was during that part of the meeting when the members became better acquainted with each other. The life of the Raman was indeed an interesting one and these passengers found it more so every day. Much time was spent on outside reading, and they soon became Huent readers of Latin and a learned group on the subject of the Romans. Page Eighty ll-IORNTONITE lllf, ERNST PYCLIK EUGENE BARNA WILLIE RICHTER ALBERTA MAXWELL President Secretary Treasurer Vice-President Le Deutsche Ecke As a means of accomplishing their ambition and desires the passengers who were enroute for a greater knowledge of the German language organized a club, the Deutsche Ecke. The barometer truthfully foretold pleasant sailing on the memorable day of May 2, 1930, when a group of German passengers and their instructor, William Richards, decided that little was known among the passengers about the lives and customs of these progressive and conquering people. As a result of this decision the Deutsche Ecke was organized in Instructor William Richards' stateroom on the second deck of the good ship Thornton. Mr. Richards, being the instructor for German passengers, was the adviser of the club which was composed of passengers who were traveling either firslt, second, third class, or in the steerage. A competent group of olhcers was elected for the voyage by the members of the club. Ernst Pyclik, who on his first voyage on the Thornton had become quite prominent in the German quarters, was elected president, Alberta Max- well, vice-presidentg Eugene Barna, secretaryg Willie Richter, treasurer. Since many passengers in the steerage found it difficult to master the lan- guage with any great degree of understanding, their presence at the monthly meetings, held in stateroom 208, proved to be of benefit to them. During these meetings the members sang German songs, played Geirman games, and by reading books and hearing lectures in German learned a great deal about Germany and her customs. Each year at the start of the educational voyage of the good ship t'Thorn- ton the passenger list for the German quarters grows longer.

This well-known club has been in existence since the voyage of 1924-25 and has become more significant each voyage. The main purpose of the club was to teach the girls to feel more at ease at social functions and also to teach them to become more graceful and efiicient hostesses. They gained much practice in the latter at their regular meetings, for a different girl acted as hostess at each meeting. The progress of the club was ably guided by Miss F. Waterman and Miss G. Rahn, teachers of domestic science. The following officers also helped in furthering this progress: Mildred Bloom, presidentg Irene Vandenberg, vice- presidentg Irene Staton, secretaryg and Else Doolewerdt, treasurer. Early in the year the Home Economics girls bought the material and made curtains for the dining room of the ship. The money for these curtains was raised by the girls by selling homemade popcorn balls and potato chips at the basketball games. Other improvements aboard the ship were also gained from these sales. On Friday, Febuary 13, the girls entertained two hundred mothers at a St. Valentine tea. Attractive decorations in red and white carried out the Valen- tine motif. , As shown by the large attendance the affair was a great success. In February the club purchased a tea set consisting of a tray, a sugar, and a creamer. This completed the set which was used for the teas held from time to time. Many of the girls also gained much experience as waitresses. Two of the banquets at which they served were the annual football banquet, held in the fall of the voyage, and the annual first and second class banquet held in May.

Each year the organization has seen a steady growth in both membership and activities and is now considered one of the leading organizations on the ship. Points were awarded for first, second, and third teams in all sports. One hundred points were given for membership on first team, seventy-five points for second, and iifty points for third. When a girl earned five hundred points, class numerals were awarded, and for one thousand two hundred points a school letter was awarded. Soon after launching the organization elected as its oiiicers: Esther Davey, president, Marguerite Begnoche, vice-president, Mildred Bloom, secretary, and Irene Staton, treasurer. These oiiicers and the following managers made up the board of' directors: hockey manager, Jaan Int-Houtg basketball, Elsie Meyer, and baseball, Gladys Schroeder. On October 20 the G. A. A. gave a weiner roast in honor of the freshmen members. In closing each seasonal tournament a banquet was held for the teams. At a hockey banquet on December 18 the following girls received numerals: Jaan Int-Hout, Edith Gustafson, Sylvia Meyer, Esther Davey, Mildred Bloom, Irene Staton, and Lily Clark. They were the first girls to receive numerals under the new point system. Miss Dorothy Dodge, instructor of girls' athletics, was in charge of the organization.

Q. sxxxxx-wg CONSTANCE SCULLY COLLETTE SCULLY ELAINE CLEVELAND President Vice P1 es ecretary FRANCES DONALDSON JAAN INT-HOUT Treasurer Speaker of Council ISABELLA CARR Speaker of Division Chairmen Girls' Club Officers The Girls' club launched its first voyage with the ship Thornton on Janu- ary 16, 1916. Its growth has been one of constant increase. The club was organized by Miss Francis Gordon as a successor to four Camp-fire groups at the demand of the passengers for a general club wherein all girls interested in that type of work could participate. There are three committees of passengers who form the governing body of the club: Board of Control, Council, and Division Chairmen. From these groups are chosen the six girls who are termed senior ofiicers. The Board of Control is represented by the president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurerg the Council and Division Chairmen are represented by their speaker. The office of president is one of many responsibilities. The girl chosen to fill this office must command the respect of her fellow passengers. Constance Scully came to this office with the experience of three years of active interest in the club. Her leadership has carried the club through a successful year, while her personality has made her a friend of all girls. As secretary it was Elaine Cleveland's duty to keep a record of all meetings of the Board. Because of the many business projects of the club the treasurer must spend hours working on the accounts. Frances Donaldson has capably filled this office dur- ing the last tour. The duties of vice-president fell to Collette Scully. She conducted all meetings which the president was unable to attend. As speakers Jaan Int-Hout presided over the Council and Isabella Carr presided over the Division Chairmen. They attended all Board meetings and presented the business of' their respective committees to the Board.

Board of Control The Board of Control was the principle governing body of the Girls' club. All important business matters passed through its hands before they were allowed to be presented before the club as a whole. The committee was com- posed of eighteen passengers. In the past year an important change was made in the election of the Board of Control. Previously only primary elections were held in the spring. Last May, however, the first, second, and third class passengers chose their represen- tatives for the Board of Control. In turn the Board elected the president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer for the coming voyage. This spring election enable-d the passengers to choose those who had taken an active interest in the club's work during the past tour. The incoming officers also had the ad- vantage of receiving their new duties direct from the hands of the retiring officers. The steerage representatives were elected in the fall. In order that the girls might become better acquainted with the other girls and with the Girls' club, this election was postponed until November. No girl may be elected to the Board of Control more than once during her first three voyages. The first class members were: Constance Scully, president, Elaine Cleve- land, secretaryg Francis Donaldson, treasurerg Esther Davey, Verneeta Gibson, and Mildred Kreyscher. The representatives of the second class were: Collette Scully, vice-president, Marguerite Begnoche, Ruth Muilenberg, Gladys Schroe- der, and Ellen Thomsen. The third class members were: Genevieve Halloran. Doris Miller, Margaret Reid, and Dorothy Wall. Betty Benson, Violet Lind- strom, and Mary Louise McGuire represented the steerage.

Upon this conscientious group depends the welfare of the club. Because of the yearly increase in membership and activities many changes must be made to meet these conditions. All of these improvements originated in this group. Regular monthly meetings were held by this group. Many questions arose that were of interest to the smaller groups only, that is, first class, second class, third class, and steerage groups. These smaller group meetings were sometimes held in place of the general group meeting. Interesting discussions and programs were arranged by the program committees of the respective groups. All members took an active part in the discussion. Representatives of the first class passengers were: Jaan Int-Hout, speaker, Edith Gold, Marion Smith, Ruth Rowland, Josephine Faber, and Dorothy Ortman. Those represent- ing the second class passengers were: Jean White, Edith Steinko, Barbara Smith, Margaret Norton, Helen Horvath, Eva Kass, and Jane Pickrel. The third class passengers chose the following: Evelyn Lindell, Lorraine Gregory, Marguerite Kocher, Nellie Bielfeldt, Amy Selkirk, Dorothy Cornwall, Else Doolewerdt, Elizabeth Thompson, Jeannette McVey, and Lois Wrede. Helen Morrison, An- toinette Cardin, Kathleen Condon, Alice Evely, Berena Keiken, Ruth Holm, Jeanette Krueger, Iva Louise Petty, Catherine McBratney, Dorothy Sanderson, Martha Staat, and Marjorie Voss were chosen by the steerage.

Each morning the division chairman, whose duty was to check the at- tendance in her home-room, procured a slip from Miss Gordon on which she wrote the names of the absentees. If a girl was ill the division chairman was responsible for her absences being reported correctly in order that flowers might be sent to her. If a girl deserted the ship the division chairman's prompt notice given to the dean aided a great deal in trying to persuade the girl to re-embark. Previous to last year the division chairmen were chosen by the Dean of Girls. For the past two years, however, the office of the division chairman has been elective. In order that all passengers might be given equal opportunity in the sharing of a chairman's responsibilities no girl is allowed to serve more than once during' her passage as a steerage, third class, or second class passenger. Five important additions were made to this committee during the past year. These were the secretaries of the attendance and the speaker of the division chairmen. Ilsie Stiefel was secretary of attendance for first class passengers and the following served for the others: Flora Weesie, secretary for second class passengers, Martha Melnyk, secretary for third class passengers, and Ruth Westerberg, secretary for steerage passengers. Isabella Carr repre- sented the Division Chairmen on the governing body, the Board of Control.

A touchdown! Thornton made a touchdown! The cry was heard for miles! The ,huge crowd of Thornton spectators was overjoyed. Every- one was too excited to stop yelling or to even notice his neighbor. But not one was too excited to nlotice that the bleacher girls were at work selling their rich, spicy, piping hot dogs fresh from the pans. The football game was forgotten for the moment while everyone appeased the cryings of his stomach. Finally the game again claimed their attention and the girls returned to the hot dog stateroom to refill their baskets. These girls in their bright purple dresses with white collars and cuffs, and purple and white polkadot ties were exceedingly popular at the football games played during the fall of the voyage. No matter what kind of weather it was- rain 'or shine, snow or sleet, clear or foggy, warm or cold-the girls were thereg and the colder the day, the more popular were the girls with their hot dogs. The following girls made up this sales group: Edith Gustafson, Dorothy Funsoosten, and Minnie Wild, first classy and Betty Placek, Helen Mafhin, and Mary Malito, second class. Of equal importance in furthering the success of this business project were the girls in the stateroom who prepared the hot dogs. Attractively dressed in white dresses and purple smocks 'the girls were kept busy answering the demands of the hungry crowd. Six girls made up this group: Clara Gross, second class, was manager of the project, and, as such, had charge of all the buying. She had as her helpers in the stateroom, Amy Selkirk, Wilma Spangler, La Vina Walker, Else Doole- werdt, and Ruth Bark, all third class passengers. The girls in return for their services received a Girls' club pin. Page Ninety THGRNTONITE Mabel Frank, Florence Rickhoff, Marian McDougall, Kathryn Miller Jean Newton. Helen Bottema, Carol Ehlers Stewardesses All duties on the good ship Thornton must be performed very quickly and accurately. On such a progressive ship as Thornton it was necessary that all Girls' club assemblies, which were usualy held during the first watch, begin and close promptly in order that passengers would not be delayed. On the last cruise, whenever there was an asse-mbly for girls, seven marshals were in charge. These marshals were responsible for the prompt opening and closing of the meetings and for the arranging of the seats. The four classes of passengers always sat in positions respective to their rank. The first class pas- sengers sat in the front rows of the center spectiong the- second class passengers, in the back of the center section, the third class passengers, in section three, and the steerage passengers, in section one. A great effort was made during the last tour to make the girls' meetings of equal interest to all passengers. It was generally felt that a meeting should be called only when necessary and when proper preparation had been made for its presentation. At these meetings each marshal had an individual task to perform. The head marshal, Jean Newton, and her assistant, Marian McDougall, presided at the entrance and closed the doors promptly when the bell rang. At the conclusion of a Girls' club assembly the girls left the fo'c'stle by classes, according to a special system that was worked out by the marshals. The uniforms which the marshals wore were Very attractive. They con- sisted of purple skirts, purple sleeveless jackets, and white blouses. The marshals, who were all first class passengers, were Jean Newton, Carol Ehlers, Helen Bottema, Mabel Frank, Marion McDougall, Kathryn Miller, and Florence Rickoff.

The secretaries of the good ship 'tThornton had entire charge of the typing, mimeographing, recording, and filing. Ballots used in Girls' club elec- tions were handled by these secretaries. All songs which were sung at Girls' club meetings were mimeographed by these girls. The secretaries for the past voyage were: Mildred Lucas, Florence'Nagel, Ruth Rowland, Joan Scully, Mar- garet Wolfrum, Lucille Wray, Daisy Burnside, and Eva Kass. Another group which played an important part in the activities aboard ship was the group of hostesses. These were all girls of the highest character and had a thorough knowledge of the ship's routine and excursions. The hostesses of the good ship Thornton were possessed of charming personalities, as it was their duty to escort visitors or new passengers on tours of inspection. Those who served as hostesses were: Jaan Int-Hout, Verneeta Gibson, Sylvia Meyer, Dorothy Ortman, and Katherine Sawyer. The duty of the custodians was to take charge of all Girls' club property. The custodians had to see that every article loaned by the club was properly returned. They had to keep notices of events on the bulletin board and records of all Girls' club news. All this work was done by the two very efficient young ladies, Edna Sheldrake and Mary Doris McCaskie. The fourth of these groups was known as chorus proctors. Their duty was to check attendance at the meetings of the Girls' club chorus held one Thursday every month. The proctors for the past voyage were Gertrude Gaebe, Apolonia Ritt, and Hattie Rice. fv- I Page Ninety-two ORN'l'ONl'l'l-L Dorothy Hock, Gladys Schroeder, La Verne Polkow, Margaret Norton, Janie Pickrel, Stephanie Kara, Josephine Zmuda, Margaret Donaldson, Eva Price, Mary Int-Veld, Adeline Hammermeister, Mildred Burns, Veronica Condon, Edith Kretzer, Annetta Haddon.

Business Projects Committee In order that the Girls' club of the good ship Thornton would not have to depend on the ship's purse for its finances the club sponsored three business projects during the past voyage. These projects were particularly note-worthy on account of their success in the number of persons involved. The magazine project was managed by a group of nine girls who were responsible for all magazine subscriptions received. First class passengers secured subscriptions in order to help pay for their excursion to Chicago, includ- ing luncheon and a theatre ticket. The girls who worked on this project were: Lolyta Dockweiler, Edith Kretzer, Ella Weichmann, Ruth Brei, Mildred Burns, Mildred Kreyscher, Eva Price, Margaret Harms, and Annetta Haddon, Twenty-one girls managed the Christmas card business. They were Lor- raine Plante, Marie Thompson, Gladys Schroeder, Jane Pickerel, Martha Rice, Francis Van Wormer, Veronica Condon, Evelyn Wood, Josephine Zmuda, Rowina Kreutzburg, Stephanie Kara, Dorothy Hock, Mary Malito, Margaret Norton, Laverne Polkow, Alberta Maxwell, Apolonia Ritt, and Mary Int-Veld. The committee was divided into two parts under joint managers, Marie Thomp- son and Gladys Schroeder. Each year as part of its program the Girls' club holds two rummage sales, one in fall and one in the- spring. The rummage sales of the past cruise were very successfully handled by a committee of four girls: Adeline Hammermeister, Marie Thompson, Florence Nagel, and Mary Allen, who were ably assisted by numerous other passengers.

They were lost in the huge ship with its many decks, companionways, and staterooms. For the first two or three days after sailing they were in a turmoil of mixed staterooms and late watches. However, on the good ship Thornton the Girls' club did a great deal in solving this problem by organizing a committee for the benefit of the steerage passengers. This committee of girls, which was appointed by the Dean of Girls, Miss Francis Gordon, was stationed over the ship during the first few days of sailing. They were easily recognized by their purple and white badges. The girls were aided in this movement by the Boys' club stewards. With all this help the new passengers soon gained confidence and really became inter- ested in their first voyage on the good ship Thornton. This committee also took care of the activity points for the steerage pas- sengers. Each member of the committee had a certain day on which to do this. She spent thirty minutes before her first watch and ten minutes after her last watch in writing these points. In this way the first class passengers became better acquainted with the steerage passengers. This committee also helped greatly in the preparation for the very successful freshmen frolic. Steerage assemblies for girls were conducted by members of this committee as was also the election for the Board of Control. ' The following eleven girls formed the committee for the past cruise: Elaine Cleveland, Helen Sieburg, Elsie Stender, Julia Vrooman, Marian Smith, DeEtta Chambers, Elizabeth Price, Betty Pfeifer, Mildred Ferrill, Gladys Kachel, and Margaret White.

She is naturally curious as to who are happily married and who have passed away. - In the office of the ship's Dean of Girls is a file which contains the name of every girl who has docked with the Thornton during its voyages of the past ten years. With her name is a complete record of her life since she docked. The searcher finds here the answer to her many questions-Ruth has gone out westg Mary is a student at the University of Chicagog Josephine is taking up nurses' training at a New York hospital. She discovers to her astonishment that quite a number have married--Laura has moved to California. Margaret was killed in an auto accident in West Virginia just a year after she docked. Any information which is at all possible to get is to be found in these files. The Alumnae Directory Committee of the past cruise spent much time and labor in getting and filing this information. Twenty-seven girls recommended by the commercial department made up the group. This larger group was divided into four smaller groups. The first had charge of the mailing list and the assignments that they gave to the typists. The typists composed the second group. The third group corrected, folded, and mailed the letters while the fourth group recorded and filed the information which they received. This distribution of the work gave each girl something to do and made the work easier to organize.

Mary Ellen Jones Couriers In order that all members of the Girls' Club might be able to hear all an- nouncements concerning the Girls' club the system of couriers was adopted. The couriers formed another of the indispensable additions to the Girls' club. The system was first used in the voyage of 1929-30. The success of this project was most apparent during the past voyage. Each courier, who appeared in the same home room each time to make all announce- ments, knew just exactly what she was to tell the passengers. The couriers were given home- rooms which were close together, thus making it possible for all announcements to be made quickly. Every girl who was a courier knew the name of the girl who was the division chairman in her home-room and also the number of girls in the home room. Then, if the announcements were to be written and distributed to the individual, the courier had only to secure the correct number of mimeographed copies that were necessary and present them to the division chairman in that home- room with the instructions that she was to give one to each girl in the home room. In this manner all Girls' club announcements could be made throughout the ship within the short period of three minutes. During the past tour this speedy system proved both satisfactory to the Girls' club and helpful to the girls. Those girls who acted as couriers for the lirst class passengers were Ethel Peetz and Bethel Runge. Brita Dahl was the courier for the second classg Helen Stevenson, Louise Tatge, Grace Johnson, Victoria Karzis, for the third classg Rita Carlyle, Doretta Baxter, Muriel Flynn, Janet Baumgartner, Helen Woodrich, and Mary Ellen Jones for the steerage.

These girls were members of one of the most interesting of the committees of the Girls' club. This committee was the Hospital Visiting Committee. Its destination was the Home for Incurables in Chicago. Of the many members of this institution the Girls' club adopted eight women whom they considered their special pride and privilege to enter- tain on their numerous visits. The girls took as much pleasure in planning these trips ashore as their hostesses took enjoyment in receiving them. The committee was composed of seventeen active members of the Girls' club-twelve first class passengers, two second class passengers, and three third class passengers. These girls divided themselves into groups, each group choosing a certain Sunday afternoon for visiting the hospital. When a group had definitely decided when it wanted to go, it notified the Dean of Girls, Miss Frances Gordon, who arranged for the passage ashore. In order to become a member of this committee a girl needed to make one or two of these trips, aiding in the entertainment. If she were interested enough in these visits and, because of this interest, continued the visits, she automatically became a member of the committee. Frequently the girls took some delicacies to them from the ship. The fol- lowing girls were members of the committee: first class, Constance Scully, Elaine Cleveland, Frances Donaldson, Joan Scully, Mildred Kreyscher, Josephine Faber, Grace Bailey, Helen Lawton, Ilsie Stiefel, Dorothy Radtke, Lucille Wray, and Julia Slone, second class, Collette Scully, and Gladys Schroeder, third class, Amy Selkirk, Martha Nicolson and Dorothy Sterling.

Christmas Project Committee The Christmas project is one of the traditional events that are carried on from year to year by the Girls' club. The project of the past cruise was most eiiicie-ntly and successfully carried out by a committee of representatives from each stateroom. Elsie Meyer acted as chairman of this committee. In previous years the passengers had visited the Home for Incurables, Oak Forest, and the Holme for the Destitute Crippled Children in Chicago. During the past voyage, however, in addition to these, the passengers gave a party for two hundred unfortunate children in the vicinity of the Thornton. The project opened with a stunt in the fo'c'stle in which Santa Claus and his Christmas Spirits presented the idea of a party to the members of the Girls' club. On the following Monday the Christmas project committee sold Santa Claus tags in the staterooms in order to help pay for the expense of the party and gifts. The party itself was held in the fo'c'stle' on the afternoon of December 24. After an Our Gang comedy had been shown, the boys and girls were sur- prised and delighted by the appearance of none other than Santa Claus him- self. However, he soon disappeared behind the stage to unpack his overflowing bag. A large tree, beautifully decorated, was placed in the center of the stage and surrounded with gifts for the children. As Santa Claus called their names the boys and girls went forward to receive their presents. The girls were given dolls and the boys were given toys and games. In addition to this each child received a red stocking filled with candy, nuts, and fruit. Page Ninety eight IHORNTONITE JEAN WHITE CONSTANCE SCULLY RUTH BARK Announcer Queen Sign-Bearer Stand-Up Unusual excitement was noted aboard the Thornton. The girls were seen to be scurrying here and there with their eyes ever on the time. The Steerage passengers especially were excited, for it was the afternoon of Friday, Octo- ber 17, the day of the annual Stand-up. This Stand-up is given in honor of the Steerage passengers in order to make them better acquainted with their older sisters and also with their own classmates. Because of the unusually large attendance, everybody Stands up, Thus the Stand-up receives its name. Upon entering the recreation room each girl was given a bright colored tie with a white collar and also a tag on which she wrote her name. These tags Served as introductions and aided the girls immensely in getting acquainted with each other. As each girl entered she passed along the line of girls already present, shaking each one's hand. 'This part of the program has become a tradition of the Stand-up. Everyone bowed to the Queen, President Con- stance Scully, as she passed. She was protected by two policemen, Elsie Meyer and Eva Kass. The deck was attractively decorated with orange, red, and black in a mod- ernistic manner. The announcing was done by Jean White, the sign bearers were Martha Nicolson and Ruth Bark dressed as bellboys. Following the welcoming address given by the president to the Steerage, the following clever Stunts were given: Steerage, Captain Smith and Pocahantasf' third class, How to Keep from Growing Old, second class, Uncle Tom's Cabinf' and the first class, A Mock Opera.

DUDLEY LOCKREM DAVID KASHA Sec reta ry Treasurer Boys' Club Officers The Boys' club officers are elected from the number of eligible members of the Board of Directors. The president must be a senior in the upper twenty- five percent of his class, a boy of outstanding character and leadership. The Board of Directors convened on Monday, September 15, for the pur- pose of electing officers. Those elected were: Clinton Diekman, presidentg Harry Smuczynski, first vice-presidentg Clarence Rohrdanz, second vice-presi- dentg Dudley Lockrem, secretaryg David Kasha, treasurer. On Monday, September 22, Dean O. F. Umbaugh and the Boys' club offi- cers called an assembly in the fo-c-stle to inaugurate the Officers and Board. After giving a concise history of the Boys' club, Mr. Umbaugh read its charter. Wilbur Weides, first vice-president for the '29-'30 voyage placed the char- ter in the hands of the new president. Congratulating the boys upon their choice of officers he introduced Clinton Diekman, president. In his inaugural address Clinton assured the boys that he realized the responsibilities he had assumed. He promised to promote the ideals and progress of the Boys' club to the best of his ability. During the voyage of '30-'31 the officers have executed their duty with commendable fidelity. The president has been particularly active. At his insti- gation the Harmonica club was organized. He sponsored the checker and horse-shoe pitching contests. The vice-presidents, Harry Smuczynski and Clar- ence Rohrdanz, have served faithfully in all capacities appertaining to their offices. The secretary, Dudley Lockrem, has accurately preserved a log of transactions. David Kasha, the treasurer, has studiously attended to all Boys' club matters of finance.

Representation is apportioned by rank of the respective classes: first class, four representativesg second class, three representativesg third class, two representativesg steerage, one representative. September 22nd members of the Boys' club met in various staterooms to sound fellow passengers for the board. The lead indicated depth and good bot- tom, all candiates being of proved ability in scholarship and leadership. At the final election the following were elected to the howard: first class, Clinton Diekman, Clarence Rohrdanz, Edward Murphy, Dudley Lockremg second class, Harry Smuczynski, Eugene Barna, Rudolph Zajicekg third class, Edward Burnett, Carl Meyersg steerage, David Kasha. During the year the board met every Monday home room period in the ofiice of O. F. Umbaugh, Dean of Boys. In these meetings problems of the club were discussed. The fact was brought before the club in December that there was a need for an auxiliary library from which students might borrow text books. The old book-store in the bow was chosen as headquarters. Books were donated by passengers who had such books as could be used. Mr. R. N. Zimmerman, deep sea diver and explorer, gave an illustrated talk. Professor Clyde Murley of Northwestern addressed the first and second class passengers. Professor Murley afterwards presented a volume of Representa- tive Phi Beta Kappa Orations to the ship. Speaking on the Value of athletics, Bennie Oosterbaan talked to the passengers. Professor Happy Goldsmith advised the steerage and third class passengers on dietetics. Professor Geoffry Morgan spoke on the main uses of a high school education.

A group of enterprising first class men under the direction of Dean O. F. Umbaugh, Dean of Boys, were responsible for its organization. Since the 1929 voyage Instructor E. C. Ohlert has been chaplain of the club. His efforts have been marked by success. On Thursday, October 16, the Hi-Y held the first meeting of the 1931 cruise in Chaplain Ohlert's stateroom 222 on the second deck. The purpose of this meeting was to elect ofiicers. Those elected were: president, Dudley Lock- rem, first class, vice-president, John Vaughn, second class, secretary, Tom Noble, second classy treasurer, Bernard Beck, first class. Due to conflicting activities Tom Noble was forced to resign and Robert Kinsey, third class, was elected to fill that position. At the November 20 meeting the members selected representatives to attend the Older Boys' Conference at Aurora, Illinois, on November 28, 29, and 30. The following were elected to go under the chaperonage of Harold Beck, a former Hi-Y member: Bernard Beck, Edward Murphy, Eugene Drolet, and Dud- ley Lockrem, first classy Eugene Barna, second class, Robert Kinsey, third classy and Robert Dyer, steerage. In the spring of the voyage the club put on its annual drive for additional members. By means of posters placed in convenient and conspicuous places along the promenades the ideals of the Hi-Y were impressed upon the minds of the passengers.

The remnant of the steward com- mittee of the previous year was called into action to allay the confusion and to assist new passengers in finding their staterooms. Mr. O. F. Umbaugh, Dean of Boys, appointed Eugene Drolet, first class, chairman of the steward committee with instructions to organize a complete com- mittee. As the body of stewards has increased annually since its organization live years ago, this was quite a task. Chief Steward Eugene Drolet presented the names of his committee to Mr. Umbaugh, who approved all of them. Those appointed were: Gordon Claussen, Vernon Coleman, George- Frasor, Robert Hock, Harold Lange, Herbert Miller, Edward Murphy, Roy Plagge, John Powers, Howard Schmidt, Allen Shanks, and Russell Whaley. All except Harold Lange and Russell Whaley' were first class passengers. The duties of stewards were many. They acquainted the newcomers with the vessel, and on many occasions ushered visitors to parts of interest aboard. Should a visitor unexpectedly board the ship, he would find a courteous steward to pilot him to his destination. At the football games the stewards were much in evidence helping specta- tors to find advantageous seats and in that way alleviating much of the confusion. When the Boys' club annual stag party was held for the dads, the stewards were right on deck. Dads were conducted through the engine rooms and other interesting parts of the ship.

Dudley Lockrem, Arnold Van Bergen Steerage Advisers Five years ago when Dean O. F. Umbaugh found that he needed help in the matter of instilling in the steerage passengers the fundamental orders of disci- pline and ship conduct he introduced a group system for that purpose. The leaders who take charge of these meetings are always first class boys who are well acquainted with the customs and traditions of the ship. Leadership, scholar- ship, and character are other requirements for group leaders. As a whole the steerage enjoyed these meetings as well as learned of the mother ship. In short talks the steerage advisers explained to them the ship's rufles, the methfovd of grading, the necessity of greater independence in study, and numerous other things closely related to the routine of the ship. In addition the advisers encouraged ship spirit and urged participation in extra-curricular activities. Dean Umbaugh also spoke to the boys on the value of education and of development along social, religious, physical, and cultural lines. On Tuesdays at eight bells Edward Murphy, Allen Shanks, and Wilbur Weides supervised a group of forty boys in stateroom 208 on the second deck. At two bells Wednesday mornings Gordon Claussen, Herbert Miller, and John Tjemmes met a group of twenty-nine boys in stateroom 208. In stateroom 210 on the second deck Harlen Christian and Marion Ingrahaxn were in charge of a group of fifty-seven on Wednesday mornings at five bells. Roy Lang and Arnold Van Bergen spoke to thirty boys on Thursdays at five bells in staterooom 210 on the second deck. Fridays at four bells Clinton Diekman, Dudley Lockrem, and John Tienstra met thirty-one boys in stateroom 208 on the second deck.

Conflicting school affairs, however, made it impossible for the contest to proceed further than the preliminaries. On October 23 the Boys' Club Board of Directors met in the office of Dean O. F. Umbaugh to discuss the advisability of such a plan. They decided favorably and appointed a committee to take charge. Those who received appointment were: Marion Ingraham, chairman, Harry Forbes, Wilbert Mein- heit, Herbert Miller, and Neil Vander Veen. All who were appointed were first class passengers. December 5 the committee met in the bridge to outline rules of the contest and to decide upon suitable prizes. The rules were simple, three losses elimi- nating a player in the preliminary, four losses eliminating a finalist. Other than this the book of rules was closely followed. Under the direction of Dean O. F. Umbaugh the tournament opened at seven bells on the afternoon of February 5 in state-room 304 on the third deck. Twenty-four passengers were playing while twenty others waited until the next afternoon. Many of the games were hotly contested in a friendly way. At the end of the series on Tuesday, February 17, only two contestants remained in the race. Forrest Tellis, third class, defeated Gerald Walker, also third class, to earn the right of competing with Edward Bukwa, first class, for first honors. On the following afternoon these two passengers played a series of eight games, three being tied, four being won by Bukwa, and one by Tellis, The prizes were: first, Edward Bukwa, a 1931 log, second, Forrest Tellis, a gold Boys' club ping third, Gerald Walker, a silver Boys' club pin.

As the three winners again booked passage this year, the Boys' club board of directors decided to organize a Harmonica club. On Friday, October 16, Earl Meserve, first class and winner of last year's contest, spoke to the board of directors. Earl believed that enough passengers were interested to warrant the organization. He also said that with instruction a Harmonica club could be organized. On Friday, October 23, the board met and decided to organize the club. It also chose a committee consisting of Earl Meserve, chairman, Clinton Diekman, Eugene Barna, Edward Burnett, and David Kasha. The committee, under the direction of Mr. O. F. Umbaugh, prepared for a membership drive, having a representative of the Hohner Harmonica company to entertain the boys in the fo'c'stle at one bell the morning of December 11 to :make a sounding of the number interested. At the assembly Clinton Diekman introduced Earl Meserve, chairman of the committee. Earl played several popular tunes much to the delight of those present. Tuesday, March 10, at one bell in the afternoon members assembled in stateroom 114 to compete in the harmonica contest, Miss F. Samuels, director of the Boys' and Girls' Glee clubs, was the judge. The winners and their prizes were as follows: first, Nestor Wroblicki, second class, won a 1931 log, second, Loren Connor, third class, won a gold Boys' club ping and third, Herbert Brown, second class, won a silver Boys' club pin.

The board decided to invite Mr. A. A. Stagg, famous coach at the University of Chicago, to be the main speaker of the eve- ning. The board also decided to hold the party Saturday night, March 21. On Wednesday, March 4, Mr. J. B. Stephens, first mate, consented to assume the duties of chef and to preside in the galley. On the same day he chose his committee, consisting of nine first class passengers. On March 21, Saturday, came the party! At about four bells the dads and their sons came into the recreation room to watch the heavyweight Wildcats and the Junior College five meet in their annual duel. After the game the boys and their dads gathered in the fo'c'stle. In a short speech Clinton Diekman, president of the Boys' club, welcomed the dads. Mr. F. Diekman of Berger replied for the dads. Clinton then introduced several members of the Hanmionica club who entertained with harmonica selections. The Musical Kings, the Thornton dance orchestra, played several selections. After the band program Clinton introduced Coach A. A. Stagg of the Uni- versity of Chicago. Citing numerous instances to illustrate his points, Coach Stagg encouraged the growth of filial sympathy between fathers and sons. t'Character growth is largely founded upon early developments, he said, and fathers should supervise that development. To you boys I would say but two thingsF-be loyal and stand. by your principles. After Coach A. A. Stagg's speech the party went to the dining hall where they were served with refreshments consisting of fmilk, doughnuts, coffee, and apples. Page One Hundred Nine -1 THORNTONI Excursions During the voyage of '30-'31 the Boys' and Girls' clubs co-operated in spon- soring several field trips in the community and Chicago. The excursions were not only educational but also highly entertaining. September 17 while the good ship Thornton was docked after two weeks' sailing, the Boys' and Girls' clubs sponsored their first field trip to Libby- McNeil-Libby at Blue Island. October 2 the clubs held an inland trip to the University of Chicago. Third Made J. F. Zimmerman was in charge of nearly seventy-five excursionists. November 15 Third Mate J. F. Zimmerman conducted a group of ninety pas- sengers to Chicago. They visited the Chicago Daily News, radio station WMAQ, Chicago Lighting Institute, radio station WENR in the Civic Opera building, Merchandise Mart, Tribune Tower, radio station WBBM, site of Fort Dearborn, Chicago Public Library, and G. A. R. Memorial. December 6 brought another field trip by Third Mate J. F. Zimmerman. The passengers inspected Swift and Company packing plant and animals entered in the International Live Stock Show. January 10 the Boys' and Girls' clubs sponsored a trip to the Chicago Board of Trade, Federal Reserve Bank, and County Building. Passengers were permitted to hold a million dollars in their hands at the Federal Reserve Bank. February 14 the passengers visited the Ingalls-Shepard Foundry in Harvey, seeing various processes of heating metal and casting. March 14 a large group went to the Lakeside Press, Third Mate J. F. Zim- merman again being in charge. Passengers witnessed many phases of printing and binding. April 18 Third Mate J. F. Zimmerman and seventy passengers journeyed to the Chicago Art Institute to explore in Art and Beauty.

Indoor Track A call for hands on December 2, 1929, met with a response from twenty students including twelve letter men. With Coach Hodge at the helm the team came into port in second place. Thornton took second and third places respectively in the junior and senior divisions of .a quadrangular meet at Bartlett gym January 18. In a dual meet aboard the Thornton on February 22 the Purple and White overwhelmed Fenger in both the senior and junior events. Thornton's track men ended up in second place in a triangular meet held at Patton gym late in the indoor season. On April 9 a picked crew of four competed in the Milliken inter-scholasticsg Peebles placed first in the pole vault with 11 feet, 2 in., and the relay team of Rohrdanz, Webster, Christian, and Peebles placed fourth in the 880-yard relay. At a similar meet held at Bloomington April 26 Peebles again placed first, and the relay team again took fourth honors. First place in both divisions went to Thornton in a triangular meet at Kan- kakee May 3. The South Suburban Championship meet held in May at Stagg Field ended with University High on top and Thornton second. The season ended as Thornton sent a team of ten to compete at Naperville in an inter-scholastic meet. Here Peebles tied for first in the pole vault, and Lawrence won both the low and high hurdle events. Thirty-two track men were given letters after a successful season.

With this end in View the coaching staff brought to the Thornton for the first time boys intramural athletics. Under 'Coach Valbert's instruction and supervision the boys showed an active interest in all phases of inter-class competition. Soccer, basketball, volleyball, playground baseball, track, swim- ming, horseshoes, and tennis were the sports included in the schedule. Competition was held among the four classes aboard the ship. A silver loving cup was awarded to the class that scored the highest number of points according to a scale prepared by Coach Valbert. The winning team in a game of soccer, basketball, playground baseball, or volleyball was given five points, while the losing team was given one point. In a swimming or track meet the winner of a race, field event, or dive received five points for his class, second place received three points, third place, two, and fourth, one. One point was awarded to the winner or winning team in a horseshoe game. A winner of a tennis meet received two points, the winner of the tennis finals received ten points to be added to his class totals. The second -class came out first in the soccer competition, losing only two games and winning four. They won two from the third class and one each from the first and steerage passengers. The Steerage was second, the first class, third, and the third class, fourth.

'The first class team took all the opposing teams into port at least once, while it was downed once by the steerage and later in the season by the second class. The second class was second with 47 points to its credit, the steerage third with 33 points, and the third class last with 30. The games were played on the recreation deck at eight bells, two games being played on one night. Soccer competition took place on recreation deck number two. The point standings including both soccer and basketball were in favor of the first class with the second class not far behind at the end of the basketball season. They were as follows: Totals Won Lost First Class . . 54 8 2 Second class . . 47 6 4 Steerage . . . 33 4 6 Third class ...... 30 1 9 Successful seasons in track, swimming, tennis, baseball, volleyball, and horseshoes were also played. Great interest was shown by the boys in these sports, as had been the case in soccer and basketball competition. Although this was the first voyage that anything of this kind has been tried, its .success is so obvious that its continuation on future voyages is assured. Not only does it add joy to school life aboard the ship, but it also develops interest in bodily recreation and organized sports. It gives every boy a chance to participate in competitive sports, a privilege heretofore limited to only a few. The Boys' club is taking over its supervision.

A treasure trove fit to bring joy to a pirate's heart reposed in the trophy case on the second deck at the head of the main companionway. Six of these trophies were won by Thornton athletes during the past two voyages. The 1930 baseball nine came through its season with three wins and one loss in league competition to gain the silver loving cup first in order. It was the second consecutive year in which Thornton's ball teams had been named league champions. The second cup was gained by the 1929-30 basketball heavyweights who came through all league games undefeated and who also led the league in scoring. Weides, Rohrdanz, Glob, Hodge, and Petit made up the championship team. In the district tournament aboard the Joliet in the spring of 1930 Thorn- ton's triumphant basketballers again came through with flying colors, winning from Crane, Joliet, Lemont, and Bowen to be acclaimed district champions and to receive the statuette at the right in memory of their conquests. For the first time in the five years it has been offered, Thornton won the Thornton-Bloom trophy which goes to the winner of the football games between these two ships. The cup is awarded to the victor after every game and in case of a tie is kept by the ship then in possession of it. The same football team scored one win and three ties in league games and established its right to the South Suburban Championship trophy, the figure of a football player mounted on a silver pedestal. The names of Gwendolyn Soothill, Irene Staton, and Helen Kinsey were engraved on the Girls' club tennis cup in recognition of their winning the girls' tennis tournament held in the fall of the past voyage.

Shore leave and golf! A practice net in stateroom 122 kept the golfers in form aboard ship until practice began in April when Faculty Manager Beeman took the team to Cherry Hill Country club for practice. A crew of six defeated a doughty bunch from Hyde Park on the twenty- third of April at Pipe O'Peace. Three days later a tive-man team from Thorn- ton lost to University High by a score of SVZ to 655. A delegation from Hyde Park received a cordial welcome and was defeated by the large margin of 1115 to 616. Continuing their winning streak, the Thornton golfers tore through 'Thornton Fractional, but they bowed to University High a week later. In the South Suburban Championship meet played in May at Olympia Fields Thornton placed second, her players defeating some of the best golfers in the league. The superiority of Thornton's representatives was shown in a meet with Blue Island which they easily won with a score of 1155 to 395. Bloom made its strength felt on May 22 when it defeated the Purple and White by 11 to 4 at Cherry Hill. Four days later low scores by Thornton players defeated Thornton Fractional by an overwhelming count, while on the 27th cadets from Morgan Park Military Academy were beaten with an easy margin. On June 3 Blue Island again lost to Thornton, and the golf season was closed until September. On the twenty-fourth of this month Thornton players gained revenge on Bloom, beating their rivals 12 to 3. Roy Johnson and Frank Calpeno qualined at Joliet to enter the state cham- pionship meet held at Champaign. Here Roy took sixth place against some of the hardest competition to be found.

Although a comparatively unsuccessful season was played, Thornton winning only one out of seven matches, the boys were commended on their courage and improvement in form throughout the season. The team consisting of Dan MacMaster, first class, James Causgrove, first class, Gerald Carleton, first class, Ralph Meyer, first class, and Ian Patterson and Frank Bright, second class, was coached by Coach Tomsheck. Blue Island was Thornton's first opponent and went down before the rackets of Thorntonis players by a score by 3 to 2. The games were played on the Blue Island ship's courts on Thursday, April 24. Causgrove and MacMaster won their singles match from their Islander opponents while Carleton lost to his foe in two closely contested sets. In the doubles Meyer and Patterson van- quished their rivals, while the other team of MacMaster and Causgrove lost by close scores. Bright did not participate in this match, but he made a good record for himself in the succeeding engagements. Five days later Kankakee met Thornton on the 1atter's courts. Winning the doubles and two single matches, they led by a score of 4 to 1. Blue Island gained revenge for its former defeat at the hands of Thornton by vanquishing Thornton's net artists on Tuesday, May 6, on the latter's courts. On the following Friday Thornton sailed to University High to be defeated in a spectacular meet. Bloom's racket wielders proved superior in two matches, one on the good ship Thornton on May 13 and the other on the ship Bloom on the twenty-third. Thornton lost its last match to Kankakee on that ship on June 3, the down- sea men again overwhelming the Thornton delegation. So ended an unsuc- cessful season, but one which truly proved the caliber of the players.

The seasonable sports of the past cruise included hockey and tennis in the fall, basketball and volleyball in the winter, and baseball in the spring. Dancing and swimming were offered the year around. A girl is required to take three days of active gymnasium work unless she is physically handicapped. Her course is elective. She may take two days of sports, swimming, or dancing. On Fridays she takes games. If she takes two days of swimming or dancing and would like to have sports also, she may take both by enrolling in the after school sports classg or, if she takes sports and would like to take dancing, she may do so by enrolling in the after school dancing class. As a demonstration of the work done in the dancing classes a dancing pageant was presented in the fall. Pirates, Spanish senoritas, farmerettes, Irish colleens, and Jack Frosts all were represented in this revue. Following the final hockey game of the fall, in which the second class de- feated the first class for championship honors, the G.A.A. entertained all steerage girls with a weiner roast on recreation deck number two. Those who were mem- bers of the championship hockey team were: Gladys Schroeder, Apolonia Ritt, Irene Staton, Marguerite Begnoche, Eva Kass, Elsie Meyer, Mary Malito, Edna Meinheit, Genevieve Maranto, and Phyllis Genovese. Later, at the close of the season the annual hockey spread was held in the mess hall. At this time new members of the G.A.A. were initiated and an honorary varsity hockey team was announced by Instructors Martha Carr, Dorothy Dodge, and Eleanor Moreland. Those chosen for the mythical team were: first class, Esther Davey, Dorothy Page One Hundred Twenty-four TH ORNTONITE Edith Gustafson, Elsie Meyler, Instructor Martha Carr, Collette Scully, Eva Kass, Marguerite Begnoche, Norma Grueter, Irene Staton, Marie Thompson, Rita St. Aubin, Esther Davey, Eileen Leeson, Marjorie Voss Girls' Athletics-Basketball Ortman, Helen Turnbull, Edith Gustafson, Ilsie Stiefel, and Martha Browng second class, Marguerite Begnoche, Genevieve Maranto, Elsie Meyer, and Gladys Schroeder, third class, Helen Beinor. Since the varsity did not have the oppor- tunity of playing as a team, it was merely a recognition of superior accomplish- ment in hockey. Following the inter-period and inter-class tournaments held early in the spring the annual basketball banquet was given in the recreation room on the second deck. The first and second classes tied for the basketball championship, both classes winning one game and losing one game. At the banquet Instructors Carr, Dodge, and Moreland announced the following varsity team: first class, Esther Davey and Marie Thompson, second class, Elsie Meyer and Irene Statong steerage, Eileen Leeson. A second varsity basktball team was composed of Edith Gustafson, first classg Collette Scully, Marguerite Begnoche, Eva Kass, Rita St. Aubin, second classy Norma Grueter, third classy and Marjorie Voss, Steerage. The first varsity basketball team had the opportunity of playing with the Junior College girls' basketball team. The next occurrence in the order of events was the swimming pageant, an original story in pantomime given in the ship's natatorium. The story was written by six of the ship's passengers. Its authors were: Constance Scully, Jaan Int-Hout, Esther Davey, Elaine Cleveland, Irene Olson, and Marguerite Beg- noche. The plot of the story centered around a mythical prince, his beloved princess, and an enchanted pool. With the aid of the music and art depart- ments the page-ant was very eH'ectively portrayed. This was the first swimming pageant to be presented by the girls' swimming classes. Page One Hundred Twenty-five 'FHORNTONVIF Girls' Athletics-Volleyball The volleyball tournaments very nicely filled the interim between the bas- ketball and baseball seasons. Volleyball, which is usually more or less disregarded by the girls, proved to be exceedingly interesting. As is usually the case the baseball season was both popular and successful. The inter-period and inter-class tournaments were held on deck outside the Buda recreation room. Election of officers for the coming cruise took place at the baseball banquet held at the close of the baseball season. Although tennis is not taught by the physical education department, the girls were given a chance to prove their ability in this sport at a tournament sponsored by the Girls' Physical Education Department and the Girls' Club. This tournament was not inter-period, inter-class or restrictive. Competition was offered in singles and doubles. The Girls' club presented a cup engraved wltn the names of the winners to the collection already accumulated by the ship. Gwendolyn Soothill was the singles champion, and Irene Staton and Helen Kin- sey paired oif to win the doubles. A novel sideline sport undertaken by the girls during the past cruise was archery. The archery lessons, given for a period of three days, were so success- ful that the curricula for the Physical Education Department for the next voy- age will probably include archery. Girls who are physically unable to participate in the more strenuous sports are given a course in corrective gymnasium work. Physical education has become a definite part in general education and the instructors of the Thornton have certainly succeeded in making the passengers enjoy it. In addition to this they have developed certain marked ideals of sp0l'fS- manship, alertness, vigor, grace, and cleanliness in the minds and spirits of the girls.

October 10 the second class elected officers: president louis Jansen, vice-president Lois Craig' secretary Alex Kerr- treasurer Ruby Killion. It did not take long for every one to become acquainted for on October 5 the first class gave a banquet in honor of the second clacs. On this occasion Martha Vance was general chairman. The talent of Phyllis Dahms who gave a few readings, and Wilbur Lincoln, who sang several popular songs was a valuable contribution to the evenings entertainment. The members of the second class have been active in the functions of the college. Gordon Adler and John La. Coste were members of the debating crew. James Doheny, Rowland Hughes, Louis Jansen, Harry Lincoln, Alex Kerr, Wilbur Lincoln, Ralph Petit, and Harold Vogler were members of the basket- ball crew, Phyllis Dahms, Milton Craig, Charlotta Goss, Rowland Hughes, Robert Thompson, and Helen Van Wormer were members of the cast of the junior col- lege play, Skidding.

The club was organized to promote better fellowship among the passengers, to sponsor all activities that would in any way aid the college, and to form a basis for carrying out such activities. The ideals in the minds of the founders have been closely followed, resulting in a compact, progressive organization fully respected in Junior College. Shortly before the close of the 1930 voyage James Rickoff was elected president. At the first meeting of the club October 2 the following oiiicers were elected: vice-president, Alex Kerry secretary, Russel Steubingg treasurer, Rowland Hughes. The headquarters of the club was a large, airy room near the Junior College staterooms. Because of this proximity to the staterooms it became the favorite resort of the work laden students as well as the ones who whiled away the spare moments in comradeship and ease. It has become traditional for the College club to give a welcoming stag party at the beginning of each voyage for the benefit of the new passengers. On September 19 the stag was heldg it was the best attended and most success- ful in the history of the club. Since its existence the club has succeeded in giving one or more dances on each voyage. During this cruise the Co-ed club and the College club sponsored two dances, one on November 7 and the other on February 7. One of the finest of the club's affairs was the farewell stag, which was also a club tradition. It was the last function of the cruise, and by its very nature symbolized all that the club stood for. Page One Hundred Thirty-six THORNTONITE HAZEL CLOTHIER BERNICE MEYER GWENDOLYN VIETH RUBY KILLION President Secretary Treasurer Vice-Pres, Co-Ed Club The Co-ed club, which is composed of all the college women, is primarily a social organization and is supervised by Miss Mildred Anderson, Dean of Women. The members spend much of their leisure hours resting and chatting in the Coed club's stateroom on the second deck. The club calendar for the past year runs as follows: September 19. The first class passengers gave those of the incoming second class a tea, an annual affair of the club. October 16. The men of the college joined the women for a dinner served in the dining room. This was followed by dancing in the recreation room. December 19. The annual Christmas party was given in the form of a mas- Querade. December 23. As part of its Christmas project the women prepared a tempting basket for a Mexican family. December 26. One of the largest and most successful parties of the cruiS0 was given in the recreation room on this night. January 15. An informal tea was served as a general get-together for the members of the club. February 13. A very successful tea was given by the members for their mothers. March 10. The men again joined the women in a dinner party, the occasion being in honor of St. Patrick. April 10. A return to childhood days was greatly enjoyed by all members in attending a kid party given in the club's stateroom. May 15. One of the happiest events of the cruise was a picnic on the mainland, the first of the Co-ed club had experienced. Page Onie Hundred Thirty-seven Tl-IORNTONITL N-XXX? 'VV 'WX 3.24 SM ff!! LESTER ODELL EVANS FERGUSON WILLIAM DONAHUE President Vice-President Treasurer Thirteen Club During the '28-'29 voyage the Thirteen club was organized by a group of first class passengers who saw the need of concerted action in the college to make a success of the various activities. Since that time the club has been the firm foundation of all activities and has become the nucleus for the successful attempts of several new projects. The purpose of the club was clearly stated in the preamble of its charter: To fulfill a need for a unified organization which will take an active part in sponsoring school activities. The club has complete charge of the college plays, it also co-operates with the Boys' and Girls' clubs in their annual production. If it is possible, the club attends the plays in a bodyg the same custom prevails in all athletic events, making the club the center of the college cheering section. All the college projects are deeply indebted to the Thirteen club for its active support. At the first meeting of the Thirteen club, October 8, Wednesday, the mem- bers elected officers. Those chosen were: president, Lester Odell, first classy vice-president, Evans Ferguson, first classg secretary, William Donahue, first classg and treasurer, Harold Coleman, first class. The club is composed of thirteen members, ten first class and three second class, each particularly active in extra-curricular activities and whole-heartedly willing to support the club in all its projects. Besides the officers, the members are as follows: first class, Duane Beeler, Burton Isaacs, Emerson McVey, James Rickhoff, Robert Stinson, and Milton Vandenburgg second class, Russel Brown, Alex Kerr, and Paul Peebles. The success of the past voyage was largely due to the splendid cooperation of all members and the ability of the officers. Page One Hundred Thirty-eight TI-IORNTONITE f5 smxxxxxw BERNICE MEYER ROBERTA HAYES GWENDOLYN VIETH HAROLD BECK President Secretary Treasurer Vice-Pres, L'Alliance Francaise The French club under the direction of Miss Mildred Anderson, Dean of Women, was founded to stimulate the passengers to greater efforts in order to acquire a working knowledge of the French language. As soon as possible the passengers of the 1930-31 voyage met in the Junior College library to elect oiiicers and lay initial plans for the cruise. At the first meeting on October 1 members elected the following officers: president, Bernice Meyerg vice-president, Harold Beckg secretary, Roberta Hayesg treasurer, Gwendolyn Vieth. For the third meeting of the club December 12 Harold Beck, first class, lnvited the passengers to meet in his stateroom. Following the regular business discussion, all present enjoyed several forms of entertainment. Several meetings followed, interesting, instructive, but not exceptional. In February there was a meeting comparable only to the second meeting of the year. Juanita Roberts was hostess to the club in her stateroom, the occasion being a Valentine party. Every one greatly enjoyed the amusing farce cleverly enacted by Jeanette Cohen and Emerson McVey. A scene from Le Voyage de Monsieur Pirrichon was staged by Francis Hood, Clyde Fisher, Olga Maloni, and Margaret Yinger. Still another drama was produced, At the Circus, acted by Gordon Adler, Lois Craig, Juanita Roberts, and Albert Van Kalker. On Friday, March 6, several passengers went to see Voyage de Monsieur Pirrichon, which was presented at the Goodman Theatre in Chicago. Saturday, March 20, other passengers journeying to Julienne's restaurant in Chicago where they delighted in a typical French dinner. Page One Hundred Thirty-nine THORNTONITE Mr. C. Wright fadviseri, Gordon Adler, Oscar Roberts, James Wray Hazel Clothier, Bernice Meyer, Martha Vance, Ellen Pray Debaters The class in debating and several other passengers interested in that activity first organized a debating crew in 1927. From this group debaters were chosen to represent the school in inter-college debates. Under the direction of Mr. C. D. Wright, English instructor, the passengers organized a crew to compete in a triangular meet between Thornton, Joliet, and La Grange. Nearly every college in America considers debating of sufficient importance to merit a prominent place in its activities. In order to attain any degree of suc- cess the debater must perform a vast amount of research work and spend hours in notating, drilling, and creating arguments for his side of the question and refuting those of his opponents. Debating has many practical values. It not only trains the participant in the intricacies of public speaking-holding the attention of the audience, per- suading and convincing it-but it teaches self-control, quick and clear thinking, and self-reliance. Few people realize the difficulties of this activity. During the past voyage the crews considered the question, Resolved: That the chain store system is detrimental to the best interests of the American peo- ple. The affirmative crew was composed of Gordon Adler, Hazel Clothier, Oscar Roberts, and Martha Vanceg John La Coste, Bernice Meyer, Ellen Pray, and James Wray debated the negative side of the question. On Monday, January 12, the negative crew from Morton Junior College boarded the Thornton to meet defeat at the hands of the Thornton affirmative crew. At the same time the Thornton negative team won from the Morton affirmative team aboard the Morton. On January, 29 the crews met La Grange and Joliet in a triangle meet, the affirmative losing, while the negative crew won.

In accordance with that custom the passengers under the direction of Miss Mae Sexauer, instructor of English and dramatic coach aboard the Thornton, dramatized Skid'ding, a comedy written by Auroria Bouveral. The play was presented in the fo'c'st1e the nights of November 21 and 22. Skidding was a fresh, sincere picture of American family life. Marion Hardy, played by Martha Vance, was a modern college girl who fell desperately in love with Wayne Trenton, portrayed by Oscar Roberts. To complicate matters there were two pretty, young daughters who had married before they had finished their education. At the first sign of trouble they went hurrying home to mother. The characters were well acted by Phyllis Dahms as Estelle Hardy Campbell and Helen Van Wormer as Myra Hardy Wilcox. Mother Hardy, por- trayed by Charlotta Goss, became so upset at the modern tendencies of her daughters that she left home to straighten out the family affairs. The important factors in straightening out the adairs were young Andy Hardy, a quick, bright lad impersonated by Rowland Hughes, Grandpa Hardy, an absent-minded old fellow reminiscing about Grandma and his making the white satin slippers in which Martha was wedded, played by Milton Craig, Aunt Milly, an old maid school teacher, played by Ellen Pray, Judge Hardy, a part very well acted by Harold Coleman, and Mr. Stubbins, characterized by Robert Thompson. The Thornton orchestra, under the direction of Mrs. Isabel Loomis Montelius, entertained between acts with several numbers. Included in the group of selec- tions were: Song of the Flame by Gushwing Wild Flower by Youmansg and Sari by Kalman. Page One Hundred Forty-one THORNTONI Lois Craig, Ruby Killion. Helen Beck, Gladys Craig, Marion Shirron, Velva Berg Onza Maloni, Eleanor Anderson, Phoebe Gallati, Juanita Roberts Women's Athletic Association Believing that there was some slighting of women's organized athletics in the Junior College, a group of nine women with the aid of Miss Martha Carr, director of women's athletics, organized the Women's Athletic Association early in the fall of 1930. With the purpose of fostering all activities which tend to cultivate a sound body the association immediately started on its successful cruise with the game of hockey. Much interest was evinced by the passengers in the hotly con- tested games between the two classes. On Thursday, November 5, the final game of the season was played with the first class emerging victorious over the second class by the score of 2-0. Much of the winter was occupied by the ever popular game of basketball, while spring was devoted to the interests of swimming and tennis. Since the first formal organization in the fall of the voyage many new members were taken in on the merit of their work in the field of athletics. This brought the membership up to twenty-nine shortly after the beginning of the second semester, and it steadily increased throughout the spring of the voyage. Soon after being organized the W. A. A. joined the National Athletic Conference of American College Women. As part of their program to raise dues for this national organization the second class challenged the first class to a basketball game, charging admission to see the game. The main social event of the season was the initiation of new members into the association. Games of volleyball and basketball and relay races in the recreation room were followed by a chili-con-carne dinner served in the Co-ed club stateroom.

The Junior College section was inaugurated on September 19, 1927, and has sailed a most profitable cruise since that date. There are requirements which are asked of those who wish to take the two-year course on the ship, but these are always the result of the academic course given on any accredited high school ship. The standards of the junior college are held equal to those of the universi- ties and colleges of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. This fact makes it possible for all passengers of good standing to tour on any ship which is a member of the association. The junior college offers a choice from seven curricula: pre-commerce, pre- dental, pre-medical, pre-engineering, pre-legal, literature and arts, and science. Aboard the Thornton the pre-commerce curriculum is the one in most demand. When one has left the Thornton after two years' travel, a two years' cruise with a university will entitle one to the degree Bachelor of Business Administration. The junior college voyage, without any more travel, fits the passenger for secretarial work or the administration of business establishments. The pre-dental and pre-medical curricula are steps to the degrees Doctor of Dentistry and Doctor of Medicine. The pre-dental curricula as outlined meets all requirements for boarding the University of Illinois, College of Dentistry. The pre-medical course is also the same as the one prescribed by the Illinois The pre-engineering course is strictly pre-professional and is similar to the course prescribed by universities and colleges as preparatory to later speciali- zation in one of the branches of the engineering profession. 3 The ship University of Illinois holds a Bachelors degree pre-requisite for bo ding its law ship. After the completion of a voyage in the pre-legal cur- ricu um of the junior college a passenger may board the Illinois and in two years complete the cruise leading to the Bachelors Degree. The literature and arts course leads to the degree of Bachelor of Arts. 111 this course the passenger may major in English, history, or foreign language as he prefers. Some take this for these advantages alone and then go into business pursuits after landing, while others continue their study after landing to become either high school or college teachers. Four years of work is required for the degree of Bachelor of Science, the first two of these may be had at the junior college. The passenger here has the choice of majoring in mathematics, chemistry, or botany. Completion of this course fits the passenger for teaching in schools or for working in the industrial world.
