V -mf.2iS95, DEDICATION PHOTOGRAPHY Out of a host of arts, crafts and sciences, photography has been chosen to rep- resent this edition of Tilden's annual, the 1938 Craftsman. This choice was inspired by the increasing prominence which photography has been gaining during the last few years. It plays an active pant in modern advertising, offers a means of supplying evidence and facts when disputes arise, and is creating happiness for many as a hobby. The principles of photography were known long before the last century ended. The nature of certain basic optical phenomena was mentioned by Aristotle, 350 B.C.. Man's observance of photo-chemcal action dates back to the eighth century or earlier. These early Endings laid down the principles upon which modern photography is based. The actual practice of photography started about the sixteenth century with the work of Daguerre, Mipie and others. Taking pictures today is qdite different from what it was in the days of Dag- uerre when long exposures necessitated the sitter to be perfectly still for hours, seemingly, along with results quite uncomplimentary to the victim. In addition to putting the camera into the hands of just about everybody, progress in photography has enabled the scientists, engineers and explorers to rec- ord pictorially the behavior of nature. Recently its power as a diplomatic weap- on was shown. It has long been an adjunct to the written word in newspaper work. One of the largest American industries, motion pictures, has developed purely out of the perfection of photographic processes. Capturing movement of any kind is a simple matter for one of the so called candid cameras which has a top shutter speed of about one twelve hundred and fiftieth of a second. Another recent development is color photography. It is not exactly a newcomer, having been experimented wfith quite a while ago, but never has it been practised as extensively nor as successfully as today. With this new medium the cameraman may rival the painter's brush in recording for all time the subtle tints of nature. All of these factors which spell the difference between photography in the days of Daguerre and in modern times are due to one thing, scientific research. Many have been the test tubes broken in the laboratory and erasures made' on the draft- ing table in order to effect the present state of photographic perfection. What it will become tomorrow depends on the research work of today: the hand that holds the test tube holds the future of photography. The theme of the 1938 Craftsman is therefore represented by a vigorously human activity that mirrors man's own progress and fate. Photography is a science, art, trade, business and hobby. So with the clicking of a shutter may the people, activities, and honors of Tilden be revealed to you. WALTER CUNNINGHAM mg. 2 . . llifihs fskifriifffi -42 FACULTY1938 THE FACULTY Persons instructing should possess the traits of leadership. judgment. resource- fulness, poise. and breadth of interest. These characteristics enable them to under- stand the problems of those under their care and the community which they both serve. This, then, describes the Tilden faculty. Its members come from various walks of life to enter their profession. Many with scholastic honors and high degrees: dozens more whose specialized talents are the envy of their fellow teachers. Exceptional musicians. both vocal and instrumental. vie with other artists who have successfully competed in their field and even served on boards as critics of fine workmanship. Designers of oflice buildings, residences, and churches and builders of them, too, are here. A field artillery is in the list of buildings-R.O.T.C. please note. Writers of manuals, treatises. and text books in chemistry: more text books in English and Spanish: a deviser of an ability grouping test in mathmatics: experts on curriculum changes: dramatists. dancers, skaters. and other sport stars: aviators and globe trotters: public speakers and community club leaders-all these and more material of the finest caliber are to be found in a faculty whose reward lies in the nne crop of students it turns out each year.

The first meeting was held May 26, 1933 with Mrs. Ethel L. Thompson acting as Chairman. She is the president this year. In the fall of 1935 the Association was instrumental in getting the entire school redecorated. One year through the efforts of the Association all Freshmen received thorough eye examinatons. The P.T.A. has participated in the two traditional events of the school, the Annual Turkey Dinner and the Mothers' Day Program. ln addition it has sponsored two Radio Shows. A Hobby Show Exhibit in 1935 grew to a great Annual Hobby Show in which all schools on the south side may exhibit their hobbies and may compete for the revolving cup given by the P.T.A. and the several cups given by the school. This year's Hobby Show was a great success as more than 100 00- people attended. Due to tireless efforts of committees the Board of Education has made a specific appropiation for a new addition at Tilden. This year the P.T.A. gave a Variety Show which proved a success and which will be an annual affair from now on. Another new project thi-s year is the Mother Singers Group which meets every Friday afternon at the Cirand Crosing Field House under the direction of Mr. Carlsted. All mothers of Tilden students are welcome to join this group. The aim and purpose of the P.T.A. has been to interpret the school to the parents through the varied programs. The association boasts of 300 members starting from a small group of 41 members five years ago.

Steady, don't bat an eye, -was heard as the Craftsman photos were taken by Tilden's own photography department. In an endeavor to put out a larger Crafts- man at less cost to the students at Tilden, the photography department snapped and developed the photographs you see in this book. This service saved many a weary senior the trip downtown to some commercial photographer. Mr. Gleason and Mr. Moore handled the photographing very efliciently with the help of Warren Anderson and Don Warren. Mr. Duffie, the sponsor of the Craftsman business staff, installed an efficient sales and distribution system. Each division room had a representative tak-ing charge of both the sales and distribution, so that the copies could be in the hands of subscribers in record time. Each representative was responsible to a supervisor who in turn was responsible to auditors. The head of the business staff, or chief auditor, is G. Panateri. Last but not least in importance are the Editorial and Art staffs sponsored by Mrs. Pearce and Mr. McCurry respectively. Each of the members was recommen- ded by his English or art teacher. The different editors of these staffs are: Act- ivities Editor Roy Bedell, Sports Editor Gene Walper, Feature Editor William Henry and Art Editor Walter Seefeldt.

This semester the publication and circulation of the Tilden Tech Times semi- weekly had Michael Hinko as Editor'-in-chief who supervised all work of the editorial staff. Clarence Thorstenson, news editor, did most of the assign- ing. The sports page was edited by Laddie Keblusek, Sports editor, with Gene Walper assisting. Frank Voltaggio did the arranging of page one, while the headline problems were solved 'by Roger Earl Brown, headline editor, with Gene Novey edited page two with the assistance of Lawrence Musak, and Mandel Lasser wrestled with page three with Andrew Hougham assisting. The reporters. otherwise known as unsung heros, were Cvitkovich, Jeanes, Krupowicz. Mulville, Lopresti, Pisinger, Nyer, Wasilenko, Kane, Waters, Cirotjahn, Bright, and O'Keefe. Miss Julia Kritzer was appointed faculty sponsor of the editorial staff this semester. Although she has never before done this type of work, through her ceaseless efforts, -she was not only able to keep the Times in publication but also to bring about some improvements. On the business staff Harry Beste acted as business manager with Richarid Meagher assisting. Charles Peller managed the advertising, and John Pierce took over the circulation managers duties assisted by Herbert Ast. Roy Bedell handled the exchanges. and Jlack Bonshire the bookkeeping. Mr. R. B. Stone and Mr. Paul O. McCurry were the other two faculty sponsors. Last November Mrs. Mary Shortall, Otto Ealtynek, Roger Brown, and Harry Beste represented the Times at the annual convention of the Illinois High School Press association held at the University of Illinois at Champaign. Kenneth Cieppinger, Michael Hinko, and Edwin Rydbek were sent to Des Mones, Iowa, last December, as delegates to the National Scholastic Press Association conven- tion. Bror Malmgren, creator of Chubby and Bill, Times comic strip, and Walt Turner supplied the necessary artistic touch to the Times.

Its purpose is to train boys to write for print, to interest students in the great game of journalism, to give the aspiring writers an opportunity to have their proud attempts at mastering the pen printed, to teach the various phases of news- paper work, and to develop future editors for our publications. Miss Julia Kritzer, Times Staff sponsor. founded the Reporters' Club and has accepted the spon- sorship. Michlael Moravek was elected president of the organization with Joe Langan to assist him as vice-president, and Richard Kusmirek as secretaryt Meet- ings ofthe club are always made very interesting with lessons in the art of writing or discussions of various topics connected with journialism and newspaper pub- lishing. Difficulties encountered 'by the budding writers are straightened out in open discussions. Many fine articles written by members of the club have already 'been published in the school paper. CCDUNCII. SENIOR COUNCIL Nlembers of the Senior Council have just reason to look dignified: for they have given service to the school for three years and have attained a high scholastic standing in order to gain membership into this organizationt This honor is recognized by all hall guards by allowing free movement to the members as they strut down the corridors in all their dignity. But this is not the greatest honorr bestowed upon Senior Council members: for all the members with a scholarship average of ninety or better are given membership into the National Honor Society, the highest national honor obtainable by a high school student. Much of the most important work done by students in the school is handled by the Senior Council. Each semester they put on a freshman assembly to in- troduce freshmen to the school. its various activities and benefits. Whenever students are needed to take charge of classes, members of the Senior Council are selected. This semester the Senior Council was given the honor of electing most of the title holders in the Craftsman Popularity Contest. Besides this work, the Senior Council undertakes some sort of project for the improvement of Tilden each semester. Leon l-aPlace was elected president of the Senior Council this semester. Helmuth Blarra was elected secretary and Jack Warton, vice-president. Mr, Joseph Wasser- man continued to lead the organization successfully as faculty sponsor.

The boys in the three photographs are members of Tilden's Honor Club. In order to obtain the right of membership a student must have an E average for the final marks of the preceding semester. Memebers of the Honor Club are called upon for mlany services for the school. Each member is required to serve at least one semester on the oflice, library, or book room guard duty. The sponsor, Miss Mildred Lawler, sees that each member gives some time to the school and is always thinking of new services for boys who hold the Honor Club Memberships. After two run-off elections for the offlce of president, Laddie Keblusek emerged victorious over Ted Novey by a smlall majority, The two 'secretarial aids elected were Robert DelVecchio and Sam Spinelli and the office of treasurer was filled by Pierre Lurie. The Tiilden scholarship letter, a double T, is awarded to any student who has been a member of the Honor Club for four semesters, HOI including the 1B se- mester, and who hlas reguarly attended the meetings. This letter is emblematic of Tilden's brain trustersg it represents hard and effective study: and any boy wear- ing Tilden's scholastic letter has just cause to be proud, C.I.C. wan C.I.C. OFFICERS Voltaggio, Hinko, Mr. Wood, Brockway, Bedell. Unlike any other organization the officers of the Civic Industrial Club are selected by the entire school. Nominations are made by the faculty who then elect eight candidates from the nominees. These candidates are divided into two parties, Ciold and Blue of four candidates each including a president, vice president, -secretary, and treasurer. A campaign is conducted after which an election is held in every division room. Every student participates in this election to select the C. I. C. officers for the next year. At the last election. the entire blue party was elected. They are Michael Hinko president, Frank Voltaggio, vice-president. John Brockway, secretary, and Roy Bedell. treasurer. Hinko and Bedell were appointed by the C.I.C. congress to represent Tilden at the State Student Government Convention, held at New Trier High School, on April first and second. This Year was the first time that Tilden sent delegates to this convention which is held annually. The vice-president of the C. I. C. is the president of the executive council which is the upper house of the congress. The treasurer acts as the secretary at all meetings of the executive council. Every student of Tilden Tech is a member of the Civic Industrial Club. Hie attains his membership upon the payment of his budget dues. As it would be impossible for a club which boasts a membership of approximately five thousand boys to meet every two weeks, a delegate from each division is elected once a semester. These delegates. known as the C.I.C. congress, pass on all club ex- penditures. The expenses are for donations to charitable organizations. Christ- mas and Thanksgiving funds, the Red Cross. 'bulletin boards, soap apparatus, the Children's Scholarship League, and other worthy causes. The Blue Party won the election this year. One of the planks on its platform was to obtain a new bulletin board for the main lobby which it accomplished. It purchased over two hundred dollars worth of soap equipment. Furthermore C. I. C.. meg an C, I. C. DELEGATES the C.I.C. of Tilden gave one hundred dollars to President Roosevelt's infantile paralysis drive, Tiden being one of the few Chicago schools to contribute to this fund. Those selected to represent Tilden in the Junior Red Cross meeting were Ted Andersen and Roy Bedell. The delegates to this club gain valuable experience in leadership and service under the supervision of Mr. XVood, the C.I.C. sponsor and one of its originators. FIRST CIC.

Under the able guidance of Miss Wright, the office guards serve the office clerks very efficiently. Any boy who is a member of the Honor Club is required to serve in the office at least one semester while he is at Tilden. Since this group is composed of boys with the highest scholarship, it is the cream of the crop and gives exceptional service. ACHIEVEMENT l SEVENTEENTH ANNUAL ACHIEVEMENT DINNER Autographs! Songs! Speeches! Another achievers' annual event in the life of Tilden has passed. The Seventeenth Annual Achievement Dinner, given by the principal and faculty of Tilden for the students of Tilden who deserve special merit for their various services to the school, is looked upon as the social event of the year, To receive an invitation to the banquet a student must be high in service and scholarship. Many years ago only the Athletic teams which had Won a champ- ionship were invited. However, as the yeiars went by, other students proved that the Athletic field was not the only manner in which they could earn honors. This year over two hundred and fifty boys attended, an increase of about one hundred over 1937. The increase is attributed to the fact that in the past years Tilden's Athletic teams have won many new championships. The Honor Club has grown innnitely larger, thus showing a higher standard of intelligence in Tilden. As traditonal as the dinner is the candle lighting ceremony. Each year three 'boys are chosen to light the three candles representing Citizenship, Scholarship, and Sportsmanship. These boys must have attained the highest honors in their respective fields. The 'seniors who were honored at the Seventeenth Achieve- ment Dinner were Kenneth Geppinger, Harold Sogin, and Joe Coatar. Mr. Harold Kuehl, a gnaduate of Tilden, was toastmaster and Mr. Francis Cusinier, another graduate was the guest speaker. A solo by Glen Jones was followed by a song given by Tilden's quartet composed of Don Warren, Glen Jones, William Kokoefer and Walter Hirschfield. R. CD. T. C. R.O.T.C.

The Clean-Up Campaign, sponsored by the Chicago Association of Commerce, has for its purpose making Chicago a more beautiful and healthful city. The different high schools are assigned grammar schools in their district that are to co-operate in the campaign. ln addition to the grammar schools, this year Tilden has urged more than one hundred ministers and church organizations to lend their co-operation and influence in its clean-up drive. The faculty sponsor, Mr. Wm. E. Murray, and the student adviser, Frank Cvitkovich have Kermit Benson for chairman. The Clean-Up Campaign is carried on under the sponsorship of the C.l.C. which defrays all of the expenses. One of the factors which helped to win the campaign for Tilden last year was a flower box built by the Tilden wood shops. This box was placed on a poster and prominently displayed on the landing of the first stairway. The chairmen have seen that there is an adequate supply of wastepaper baskets in Tilden's corridors during clean-up week. Since Tilden has won this contest many times other schools look up to Tilden for suggestions when entering. The CRAFTSMAN staff hopes that when June 1938 rolls around, another Clean- Up trophy will adorn Tilden's already filled case. ----,-.i..1------ socmt SOCIAL COMMITTEE Front Row: Morris, Weir, Bartley, Coatar, Harkins, Orban, L.

Snappy bow-ties and well scrubbed faces amidst a flurry of hair-slicking char- acterize our Joe Tilden on those Red Letter Days when we have our Socials. These events at Tilden are always keenly anticipated because beautiful girls from our South Side high -schools are invited to decorate our masculine corridors and tread the light fantastic with our manly students. The social committee under the debonair tutelage of Doc Walters and Mr. Earl Weiner is responsible for the success of these socials. This committee's tasks are primarily to sell tickets so as to insure a financial success, then to prepare the dance floor and arrange for the music which is sometimes furnished by Tilden's Swing Band. Besides an occasional Social, Tilden has two other important events on its Social calendar. The Junior-Senior Prom is held annually in the Big Gym while the Booster Prom is given in some well known hotel or club. Other gay affairs such as roller-skating parties, tank parties, and informal banquets are sponsored by the Social Committee to add gaiety and zest to the school year.

The Tilden circus. sponsored by the June class of 1938 and Mr. Hunter, is not only a circus but a homecoming, On circus and homecoming night the former grads return to Tilden to greet again their old classmates, renew old friendships and once more talk to their teachers of former years. The circus an annual affair. has increased in size, in volume, and in nnancial success each year. Various clu'bs, divisions and school projects make money by sponsoring a circus show: for one third of the profits may be kept by the organizations.

STAGE CREW my STAGE CREW Front Row: Restucci, Herget, Pedone, McKinney, Gnass, Herwynen.Second Row: Roeske, Kruger, Revor, Petersen, Tell, Schafer, Third Row: Villiers, McClean, McCollam, McGowan, Swanson, Newman. Without the work of the industrious stage crew you see in the above picture, the Tilden assemblies would lack the needed effect. Under the capable management of Floyd Pedone, the crew does all of the work behind the foovtlights. If one would look in on these gentlemen at work, he might see them wielding brooms like experienced housekeepers or manipulating light switches like hardened electricians. Just before an assembly they can usually be heard talking through the microphone on the stage and sounding like the blare of a trumpet, as they test the volume of the loudspeaker system. The experience which these boys obtain by such service to the school is often invaluable to them in later life. The sponsor of this organization is Mr. Timme and it is to him that the manager is responsible. Any boy who has inclination toward stage work and backstage machinery may volunteer for service on the stage crew. For the first three hundred hours a bar is added to this letter. The manager recieves a star on his letter for fulfilling such a responsible position, SERVICE A FN sepevice CLUB First Row: Kedo, Corcoran, Benson, Streich. Kokoefer, Peterson.

It was decided to limit the membership to one hundred and it now has its full quota. The Service Club is composed not only of boys who wish to further school projects but also has among its members a great many of the singers, dancers, instrumentalists, and artists of the student body. During the fall, Paul Babirak was president with Frank Cvitkovich. secretary. William Kokoefer is now president in the spring semester with the assistance of vice-president Paul Anderson, and treasurer Cover Streich. The club'-s social committee consisting of Chairman. Kermit Benson, and assistants, Robert Morris, James Corcoran, and Walter Caldwell, plan an enjoyable meeting every other Tuesday. At present the Service Club is making a bulletin board for the lobby on which to post clu'b notices, is working on a trafic project for Mr. Sessler, and is backing the Assembly Hall show for the circus. The Service Club was organized and is sponsored by Mrs. Lutz. CHCDRAI. CHORAL CLUB FOURTH PERIOD CHORI-XL CLUB Front Row: C. Salvato, S.

The members who were inexperienced set to work immediately to win laurels for Tilden. ln December the Choral Club entered the city contest for South Side Schools. When the three best were chosen by Mr. Nyvall, director of vocal music in Chi- cago, Tilden led the procession with more points than any other south side school in a photographic linish. Thus it was that Tilden's Choristers earned the right to sing in the music festival on January l3, l938 in which they received an E rating. The choral like any other club has its oflicers. The boys attribute much of their success to their president, Vkfalter Caldwell, who designed the club emblem which one may see on the sleeve of any boy who has been a member of the club three semesters or sang in the music festival. The vice president is William Kok- oefer, a line bass, and the secretary is Alfred Murabito, Qcamera shy because of his shocks of wiry black hairj the best secretary any organization ever had accord- ing to Mrs. Millar. Tilden's tenors were loudly praised by the adjudicator of the contest as being exceptional high school tenors. Their favorite numbers are Bach's Let Every Tongue Adore Thee, and Magruder's Border Ballad. In the near future the Choral Clu'b will make its radio debut and in addition sing for several church organizations.

C ,V ORCHESTRA TILDEN TECH CONCERT ORCHESTRA Tilden Tech's first place Concert Orchestra welcomed Cwith open earsj a new leader in September, 1937. The reference is made to Miss Kane. CWhat Tildenite doesn't know her?j In May, l937 the orchestra made a new name for itself by taking first place in the class B, all city competition. This high honor was attained under the able leadership of Mr. Fischer, who left on sabbatical leave in September of the same year. Miss Kane made the statement that she expects to keep the orchestra up to the standards which they set while under Mr. Fischer. lf one ever went into the orchestra room during school hours and heard the loud and discordant noises, he woud never believe those same noises could be put together to sound as pleasant as the music which the orchestra supplies at many assemblies and occasionally at a P,T.A. Turkey Dinner. This orchestra is made up of about Hfty pieces. The boys who play the instruments practice during many periods of the day. When put together and told to swing it, the result is an excellent rendition of 'AThe Star Spangled Banner . The CRAFTSMAN staff wishes to express their good wishes for another championship under Miss Kane in May, 1938. were f 251.523 i BAND -1- BAND What person does not thrill to the sound of a good band? Lively military music stirs even the most phlegmatic man. Tilden's versatile band supplies music at all of the games as regular as the teams play. The band has been here at Tilden twenty-two years. During that time it has contributed many talented young men to the world of music. This June the band is losing many of its feature players. The solo cornetisl, James Robinson who plays with ease such difficult scores as Beatrice Et Benedict and Rigoletto, is leaving: but we are reimbursed by the presence and beautiful I playing of Charles Vialenta who will carry on as solo cornetist. Our two solo clarinet players, William Pawlak and Glenn Englehart, are also graduating, as is Paul Moravek, that virtuoso on the giant tuba. Our organization would not be complete without Captain Howard Stube who has been with our school for nineteen years. He is now president of the Band Association of Chicago, and can perform on almost every instrument in the military line. Captain Stube has led our band to victory many times, and we hope he will continue to do so for many years to come. lil . - iszuws .eww f 2 rv ADJUSTMENT ADJUSTMENT OFFICE Front Row: H. Taylorson, Miss Petrie, Miss Powers, Mr. Strassman, Miss Gold- stein, Miss Bratton, C. Taylorson. Second Row: Rojek, Laster, Vartiak, Gargas, Timpe, Rossberg. The Adjustment ofhce is primarily for the betterment of the boys who due to financial conditions or unfavorable environment aren't able to adjust themselves to the routine of high school life. These activities are under the supervision of Mr. Strassman who is aided by a committee of teachers. Teacher's activities fall into three groups: first there are those working with pupils of their own home room or classes. Then there are those functioning as specialists, such as giving economic aid, health correction, or dealing with attendance problems. Finally there are those carrying on activities with the aim of serving large sections in the Held of curriculum adjustment and research. Although at present there is no organized plan to reach all of the pupils, in time the whole student population will be embraced under this plan. Pupils are selected for consultation according to the following criticisms: be- hind in years or classes, ability. health needs, economic aid. failing, irregular attendance, withdrawal from school, or voluntary appearance for advice. Only one teacher is in charge of a pupil's adjustment: other teachers wishing to work with the pupil must consult the teacher in charge. This is to prevent any confusion, A record is kept for the purpose of determining the advancement of the pupil and the teachers make out a monthly report of their adjustment period activities. In referring to this service, Dr. Lunak says: The Adjustment Service Office is organized not to punish boys, but to help them in any way that they may need it. I encourage all boys to utilize the facilities of the oHice freely.

The Arx and Arts Club, sponsored by Mr. Paul D. Mc,Curry, is one of the school's peppiest organizations. This group is made up of Architectural and Commercial Art students. The present officers are: Alden Green, President, Paul Andrews, Vice-president, William Jaeger, Treasurer, and Edward Farrell, Secretary. A worthwhile feature of the club is the passing out of Architectural data sheets at every meeting to each member. These sheets provide the student with accurate information in time-saving form. A large percent of the club's revenue is used to maintain subscriptions for various architectural magazines which are kept accessible to every member. By this means the students keep up to the minute in architecture. During the '38 semester a series of weekly contests were held by the club and judged by the sponsor. These consisted of free-hand drawings of original design in both pencil and color. These contests provided each member with an opportunity to express his ideas. Some fine work was done and much of it was placed on display. The members work hlard producing the Chamber of Horrors. one of the 'best known features of Tilden's Annulal Circus and Homecoming: This show emer- ges anew each year with fresh, original ideas and a great deal of careful work.

During the past semester the Limner Club added to its name to include the Sign- painters of Tilden, many of whom were actually engaged in the work of the Limner Club. Its purpose is to develop the untrained talents of the members. This is done under the leadership of Miss Pearl Porterfield who succeeded Miss Bohman as sponsor. The Ofiicers laire: Bror Malmgren, president, Leonard Zimont, vice president Van Pelt, secretary, and Grady, treasurer. The famous signpainting team of Zimont and Malmgren added a new member to their crew whose name is FOO. This team handles practically all of the numerous and various campaign signs and deserves special credit for its splendid work. However FOO has never been indentified although he has assisted in the painting of many signs during the past semester. ln order to become a member, a student must have had at least one semester of freehand drawing and a desire to make painting either his hobby or vocation. The signpainters deserve special credit for helping to make this year's Crafts- man financially a success by their vigorous campaign to advertise it through the signpainting medium. FRENCH CLUB LE CERCLE FRANCOIS l.e Clercle Francais was organized to further the knowledge of France and of the French language for its members. The Club is sponsored by Miss Henry.

Der Deutsche Verein is one of the three language clubs of Tilden organized to give students in the language an opportunty to increase their knowledge and at the same time enjoy themselves through its use. There is always an interesting as well as educational program planned for each meeting of the German Club. Usually German plays are given and German stories told by members. Each meeting also features some musical entertainment and occasionally the members are treated to some German pastry. Hzonor is paid to famous Germans who have gained honor through their inventions or through participation in our government. At one of the meetings Miss Grace Buchwalter, teacher of German, told about her recent trip to Germany. She displayed many souvenirs of the country and played some of the records brought from Germany. At the close of each meeting, the members join in -singing several German Songs. As the adjourning tap of the gavel is heard and the members depart, they all agree that it was ianother well spent afternoon. Miss Rose J. Seitz, German teacher and head of the language department, sponsors the German Clu'b. Michael Hinko, former vice-president, was elected president of the club for this semester to replace Robert Kraus who graduated. Gedman Dilis, secretary of the club last semester, was elected vice-president, to succeed Hinko. Paul Backas continued to hold his office of treasurer from last semester, while Edward Anaszewicz was elected to fill the secretary position left open by Dilis.

The secretaries of the respective divisions Were, William Gamen, Fred Radtke, anl Morton Dowalter. The members of the model section competed in weekly contests at Marquette Park. These contests were sponsored by Donald Campbell. This year marked the tenth anniversary of the Aero Club and in the Way of a suitable celebration a banquet was held on February 12, 1938 at the Englewood Y.M.C.A. Mr. Christiansen. the sponsor for the past ten years, Was largely re- sponsible for the success of the banquet. The guest speaker at the banquet was Major Woeltjen, a major in the United States Army Corps. As a special event, sixteen ribbons were given to members who had attained superior records in their activities for the year. The boys re- ceiving Iirst place ribbons were: Don Campbell, flying models: Henry Woeltjen, scale models: Fred Radtke. gas models: and Phillip Asen, metal models. Members of Tilden's Aero Club attended the lllinois Vocational Association and demonstrated their various models to entertain the delegates.

This model aeroplane is made of sheet aluminum alloy metal and is practically as light as a model made from the usual balsa wood. The sheet metal branch is sponsored by Mr, George W. Stephens, a former sheet metal teacher and at present a mechanical drawing instructor at Tilden. The club appointed Mr. Stephens to take the place of the customary treasurer. Alden Green, the live wire president, is assisted by an R.O.T.C. buddyl, Morton Do- walter, who acts as master of ceremonies when the minutes of the meeting are called for. One of the most cherished possessions of the club is the model of the famous Winnie Mae which all remember in connection with the late Wiley Post. lt is hoped that upon the completion of the 'Wluskie Vamp, a contest may be held featuring races between the Winnie Mae and her afforementioned rival.

The meetings usually consist of a short business session followed by an excursion to some point of interest. Some of the trips taken in the past semester were to the Bird Sanctuary at Jackson Park and to the Chicago Health and Narcotics Department. Miss Beddow, the sponsor, states that it is trips such as these that give the club its popularity and have gained for it such a large membership. The Biology Club is divided into several sections which meet on diH'erent afternoons. Since there are many groups, a large number of officers are needed. They are George Clifton, J. Sanatra, R. Buzzeili, and H. Foster. chairmen: Sailors, Herald, McGovern, and Edwards, vice-presidents: and Africh, Nemcek, Karp, and Steves, secretaries. Due to the effort of Miss Beddow, emblems have been obtained for the mem- bers. These emblems are sym'bolical of biological studies and the members are proud to wear them. 1 f : 'f.e -1'2 E -. , ' 1 ,Q A V ' Y i soot ctus READERS' CLUB Front Row: Tomek, Wrona, Brockman, Bartz, Haney, Rzadkowski, Smith, Myers: Second Row: Phillips, Canning, Lunebach, Morris, Gillette, Johnson, Arnold The Reader's Club began last semester with a nucleus of students interested in reading worth-while books. Since each boy made his own choice, naturally some of the reading done was in a lighter vein than the classics used in school. Home and neighborhood librzaries were called into play and helped each one in following up his own particular bent. All types of books have been enjoyed and discussed in this way: geographical,his'torial. technical, or social. The club wishes to thank our own Tilden School Library particularly for its aid in this respect. Through its ever-helpful guidance, each member has felt that to him. At club meetings the enthusiasts roused their quieter neighbors to a discussion of the respective merits of their chioce. Sometimes the round-table talk centered about one certain book which was in the public eye at the time. Much valuable material has been brought to light in this fashion, and the book was enjoyed the more thoroughly because several boys emphasized different phases that might otherwise have escaped notice. More formal aspects of the club were the election of the following oflicers for this term: President, Al Rzadzowski: Secretary-Treasurer, Melvin Suchor: Publicity Manager, Edward Arnold. Frank Tomek was voted the most active member for this season. The sponscr is Miss Verhoeven. he is privileged to select a book at high school level, which will be of most interest .., .f ...,, miami .-'- me-1 fi fi P1 TECH CHEM CLUB Front Row: Zimont, Kestion, Bartecki, I-linko, Gluck, Mr. Goodrich.

The Chemistry Club was organized in the latter part of 1937 in response to many Tilden Alchemists Of course the members don't intend to make gold by a chemical process, but the club affords them. an opportunity to prepare them- selves for commercial activity plus a better academic background in the field of chemistry. Meetings which are held semi-monthly consist of interesting talks and reports or moving pictures. Other activities are trading duplicate apparaatus and conducting tours through commercial chemical plants. The meetings are planned in advance by a Program Committee which strives to put vardety into them. Of particular interest are the experiments which are simple but to the point. These are demonstrated in order to reveal some of the chemist's methods whiich class time does not permit. Among some of the tests and experiments which take place are etching on tools, engraving on glass, smoke rings, making wine from water, and chlanging Wine to milk. The officers at present are, Richard Culuck President, Harold Sogin, Vice President, Pierre Lurie, Secretary, and Francis Finn, Treasurer. Membership is open to any chemistry student who is interested in chemistry as a hobby. A prospective member must meet With the approval of the Member- ship Committee before he is permitted to experiment with fellow phlogistonists. 3'f-.:A.., .

Grappling their way to two second and three third places, Coach Hicks' wrestlers placed third in the state meet behind Proviso and Campaign High School. Many of the holds used in the city wide competition were barred downstate but that did not deter Mandel Lasser from placing second in the 115 pound division: Felix Skowronski placed second in the 125 pound division for the second time:Warren Stanley third in the 105 pound division: John Butkus third in the 165 pound division and Mike Fisher, captain and regular 175 pounder, grappled his way to third in the 185 pound division. Walter Frey, 105 pounder, Bill Barbaro 135 pounder and Dick Zaidlicz 145 pounder lost their first bouts under a ire of tough competition. Ted Sczepaniak, 155 pounder, lost his second 'bout by decision. Under the new rules for city competition there are two divisions, novice and open. The novice is open for inexperienced crushers and for squadmen who have had at least a year of practise or active wrestling with the team. The city championship will be decided 'by dual meets and individual titles by a city wide meet. This year's team boasts individual champs, Harry Kolkebeck 95 pounder and Mandel Lasser 105 pounder.

This past year showed great development in the sport of bowling in all high schools, due to the great impetus given it by Tilden: for it was put on a city wide basisfor all high schools. Twenty-five high schools had thirty-two leagues which bowled for a total of twenty-one weeks. At the conclusion of this time, the w'in- ning team from each league played in the sectional finals of the four section-s. The four section winners competed for the city championship. lVlr. Leon Haskell was coach of the Stevenson, Bruck and Crocombe leagues: Mr. Charles Everett of the Bruck-Wiesner league and Mr. Albert Adams of the Crest league. One of the greatest events which a team can win is the championship of the A. B.C. which is the world championship in bowling. The Stevenson A.B.C. team took Hrst place for High Schools with a total of 2446 pins, beating out their near- est rivals, Schurz'by 19 pins. Members of this team were Joe Lasky, John Kolozie, Ray Hanson, John Mezer, and Captain Andrew Hogus. Three hundred and eighteen boys participated in the different leagues through- out the season. Every member of a league was given a gold bowling jersey with the name of his league on it, as well as a bronze membership pen and card. GYMNASTICS GYMNASTIC TEAM Front Row: Huggins, Shepard, White, Malm, Maier, Trainer, Sills. Second Row: Baillies, Nayer, Round, Smith, Altenkamp, Orbin, Boquist, Mr. Hichs. Third Row: Manakas. Hottinger, Fuerstien, Stevens, Fleck. Henry: Edmundson, Wicks. The majority of the students at Tilden know little or nothing about the gym- nastics team coached by Mr. Hicks. There are two divisions of the gymnastic team, senior and novice. The senior team is for members who have won a letter in the previous semester: that is scored 70 points in the city match. The novice team is for the fellows who have not made 70 points in the city meet or are out for the team for the Hrst time. If a member on the team is especially good he may join the senior team. Just before the cty meet a list of the required exercises are sent to the coach of the team for the paralell bars, horizantal bars, cong horse and side horse. A Uvoluntaryn or required exercise is asked for on each piece of apparatus. The optional consists of any tricks that the contestant cares to do. The required exercise may be done over as an optional exercise. No second chances are given. On the basis of 100 points, 25 for each piece of apparatus. l5 points for doing required exercises perfectly and 10 points for the optional. Form is essential for a good grading. ln the optional exercises one is rated on the difliculty of the trick and in the form of mounting and dismounting. With no form. a contestant cannot receive as good a rating as the one that does a simple trick with good form. Points are taken off for bending legs, not pointing toes, not keeping head up, and intermediate swings. There are five members on the senior team and six on the novice team. As many contestants can be entered as the school desires but the five highest in the senior division and the six highest in the novice division are counted for the team title: Returning from last year's team are city champ tumbler Cliff Boquist, Willard Huggins, Henry Altenkamp. Jack Shepard, Ken Hottinger, and Warren Nyer. For the past thirteen years Lindblom High School has held the senior title. Senn holds the novice title for the present year. 3:5 ,v!.n','., -x g, ' -l 'lj ,!l.,,lgu.j,'-Ai'-gl' m i - W ,H Ng . 1' QQ-5 ' .. --i',.'1w :, , g, A -V .ff -W ..

By trimming the Schurz High nine by a score of 8-5 theTilden baseball team in the spring of 1937 won the city title for the first time in twenty-five years. Sredzinski's pitching and hitting combined with the timely batting and field- ing of Co-captains Florian Botica, Glenn Jacobs and Joe Coatar gave us a spec- tacular team. The Techmen lost only three games and won nine in section competition. They lost to Hyde Park 6-5, Kelly 7-3, and old Phillips 7-6. The loss to old Phillips pushed them into second place in the Central Division. Mr. Shortall's boys bunched 13 hits to beat Calumet, champs of the south section, by a score of 6-4 in their quaterfinal game. Lindblom, titleholder of the central section, was turned back by the score of 3-2. After trailing 2-0 the gold and blue color bearers rallied in the third frame to go into the lead with the winning margin of 6-2. Pitcher Sredzinski again held his opposing batters to a few scattered hits while his team mates fielded and batted to a score of 8-5. All of the regulars of last year's champions were lost through graduation with the exception of pitcher Clarkie Sredzinski, second baseman Gordon Kincaid, third baseman Louie Meldgin, pitcher Steinback, and first baseman Sammie Spinelli. Mr. Durkin has taken over the duties of coach of the team this spring. At the time your Craftsman goes to press your team has won live victories- Hyde Park, Englewood, Du Sable, Phillips, and Kelly have been the victims of our fine battery while Tilden lost to Lindblom. Prom present indications the least we can expect is a tie for Hrst place in the sectiong and in all likellihood by the time you read this we may have annexed another Baseball Championship. TENNIS , I I - c ' ' -. Ml , ll My U . I TENNIS TEAM First Row: Harris. Streich, Vv'ickberg, Hart, Erana, Mr. Parkhill, Second Row: Downey, Stevanowski, Phillips, Sameatto. Coach William Parkhill's tennis team followed in the shoes of their coach and won the city racket title for the second time in three years. The team only lost one point all during section play. They beat Englewood 3-0, 3-0: Lindblom 2-l, 3-0: Kelly 3-0, 3-0: and Hyde Park 3-0, 3-0. The blue and gold colors were carried to the section title for the fourth time in a row. In the smi-final round the tech netters faced Kelvyn Park. Al Josephs and Bob Rylands won both of their singles matches. Kmetilk and Clapper lost Til- den's only game in the doubles match. Nevertheless Tilden won 4-1. In the finals we opposed Lane Tech, last year's champs, and were victorious by a score of three games to two. The Lane Tech's games were won by Gijeenberg, who defeated Al Josephs and Bob Ryland at singles. Bo'b Rylands and Al Josephs both trimmed Lane's number two singles man easily. Clappcr and Stein aced the Lane doubles team to carry the city tennis title back to Tilden. Only two lettermen will be lost by graduation. They are Walter Kmetilk and John Stein doubles player. Al Joseph, num'ber one singles player, Bob Rylands and Ken Clapper will be back to defend their title this year. 4 9 1. 1 , .V A, .gxL,,,g, TRACK JUNIOR TRACK TEAM Front Row: Wolf, Sumaci, Vv'atson, Mr. Harvey, Capt.

Of course a lot of the credit is due to the players who have made this record what it is. But for the hard work and extra time spent only the highest recomendation should be given to each and every athletic adviser. FIRST TITLE IN 25 YEARS Often we won a section or were runnerups in the central division baseball race: but only one year after Coach Shortall took over the reign of the nine did they do what seemed to everyone the inevitable. In the first round of section play we were second and a loss during the rain to old Phillips High caused the sluggers to be satisfied to go into the city finals that way. Calumet, before the onslaught of a thirteen hit barrage and the fine pitching of Clarence Sredzinski, fell 6-4 to help the techsters go on to the semi-finals. In the semi-finals Lindblom, our section champ, met the revamped nine and was defeated 3-2. At Wrigley field the Shurz nine started out on the victory route. But not for long-for when the last man was retired in the seventh the score was 8-5 and Tilden had won the city baseball titlef This was due to Joe Coatar who batted .5003 to Clarkie Sredzinski who won the last seven games and batted well over .400, to the fine catching of Ziggy Botica, to the hitting and fielding of keystone sacker Gordon Kincaid and to the great coaching of Mr. Shortall and Mr. Durkin. RACKETEERS WIN 5TH TITLE May we mark the day that Vxfilliam Parkhill came to Tilden as an eventful and lucky day. For in the past ten years, five titles has he guided the tennis teams to acquire. Section play was no trouble whatsoever to our team and every opponent was trounced 3-0. Kelvyn Park was just the same as all the others and our Bill Tildens came out again victorious 6-O. Then with old man bad luck with them, they faced Lane Tech who were defending city titlists. Seymore Greenberg, no. I man of the Midwestern states, was the only opposition our 'boys saw and 3-2 brought another title to our fame. Al. Josephowicz dropped only one match all year and that was in the Hnals. Bob Rylands had a clear record until the finals. The doubles team of Kmetik and Clapper were the deciding points that won us a plaque for our walls. JUST No BREAKS Led by the oldest and hardiest coach in these doors, the golf team placed third in our section. Lack of candidates with sufficient natural ability and school SPGIQTS REVIEW spirit has caused the golfers to be the most unpublicized squad here. Coach Mahurin has worked the candidates indoors three times a week and twice a week outdoors without another 1935 city title team in view. May the future leave the dreams of Coach Mahurin a state or city trophy. SENN 13 -TILDEN 6 Even the football team won the section title. With a team averaging well over 180 pounds Coach Harvey guided his team to the finals only to be downed by injuries. No team held the powerful Tech eleven to less than fourteen points before their downfall. Harrison, Kelly, Hyde Park, Du Sable, Englewood and CVG11 Lindblom were set back in succession. The running of Mike Eisher and Ted Sczczepaniak, the blocking of Pete Monaco and Hne plunging of Hal Schumacher were unbelievable. The line defensive work of Joe Coatar, Captain and left end, Adam Kurza, tackle and Lou Rymkus, tackle was always a feature of every tilt'.g Then with a title in the horizon, Mike Eisher met with bad luck in practice and suffered a broken rib. Then lighting side to side, hoping their power attack would bring them through, the team went for a touchdown. But Senn followed with two more and then a timekeeper's gun told the sad and down hearted Tilden gridders that the game was over and the season was behind them. IRoNHEADs COME BACK A drawing teacher has taken it upon himself to organize a soccer team here. Working overtime Mr. Blackshaw has practically taught all the candidates what knowledge of the Irish game they have today. Night after night at Sherman Park the squad could be seen practising diligently. After tieing with Hyde Park and Von Steuben for the city lead the team gained new spirit and trounced their opposition by overwhelming scores. PONIES HARD LUCKSTERS When we speak of coach Apking we think of him only as a coach of one team, the basketball team. Little do we realize that he guides two teams at one time, the senior and junior hoopers. The juniors are not in the limelight as much as the larger players and do not get as much actual coaching. The junior five started out like a flash: but as soon as their schedule called for a game away from home they were at a loss. With a record of 4 wins and three defeats they placed third in the central section. A last minute defeat by Manley caused them to lose their playoff berth. Eddie Jurinek, Captain and star forward led all scoring throughout the city with a total of 77 points. The fine passing and shooting of Al Perlmutter, Eddie Jerinek and.Harry Brown can not be forgotten as they played almost every minute during the season. LAMB B1TEs LION Our senior quintet staged a very successful show until they met the revamped Hirsch five that they had trimmed three times before, only to wach a 35-21 victory pass on before their eyes in the quarter final round. Aft I V SPCDIQTS REVIEW In the pre-season Stagg Tournament the ball-hawkers met and defeated four opponents and lost to Parker High for the third place berth. Disaster met the team when Charles Byron broke his wrist While blocking an opponent's shot. During section play, Phillips, Harrison, Kelly and Manley Watched the score pile up against them. That Was before February graduations and then James Matthews, star center, was lost to the team. Du Sable met defeat and then with a clear record in back of them the Tech five met Lindblom and were on the short end of a 34-26 score at the end of the game. A revamped team came back and trounced Farragut for a tie for the section title that went eventually to us by a flip of the coin. Then the deciding game With Hirsch caused the end of a very successful season. TYREE AND BLEDSO OUTSTANDING Due to the lack of sufficient coaches, the track team has gradually lost its spot of importance here at Tilden. This season Coach Harvey has taken over the duties of coach -so as to help keep the team surviving. During the indoor season the senior team placed seventh in the city meet and the juniors second. Both teams wert undefeated in dual meets. A one man team scored all the points for the seniors. Captain Henry Bledsoe's third in hehe low hurdles, ssecond in high hurdles and fifth in high jump totaled enough to place seventh in the city meet. Disqualification dropped out the relay team that had won the city-junior title the year before. Harry Tyree's first in the 60 yard dash and 60 yard low hurdles led the juniors. Watt and Novasak also scored points. The outdoor season looks more promising as more of the candidates are used to outdoor running. 13TH TITLE IN Row Due to the great loss of Coach Earl Solem, Dutch Von Bremer took over the duties of coach of the ever famous skating teams. The titles annexed more than equalled our former record: for the teams went one step further and captured the state-wide meet at Aurora, Illinois. The name of Tilden was 'borne to both the indoor and outdoor national skating championships also. Gerald Lehnhardt, senior star, Ronald Berg, John Andruch, and Williard Huggins juniors, received invitations to the outdoors. .Iay Christoffel Went on his own accord and placed fifth in the final Z mile race. In the Chicago Tribune Silver Skates Derby, .Iohn Andruch placed first and Ronald Berg second in the junior division, and Gerald Lehnhardt placed third in the intermediate division. Long may the ice-skating teams of Tilden carry our name to the four corners of the United States. HAIL AND PAREWELL In the near future may better and greater titles be gained through our athletic teams whose fame speaks for them. May a boxing, water polo. polo, hockey, cross country, volley ball, fencing and What-have-you team be organized to complete our athletic roster. May they be as fortunate in their coaching as those who al- ready have made fame for Tilden. To all those Whose ability on our many 'teams has added to our glory, goodby and good luck!

Starring in the cast is Hollywood's cinema idol, Bill Kokoefer, with a supporting cast of Francis Finn as the treacherous villain, Edward Chesin, the famed rolly- polly comedian, and Thomas White, the curly haired orchestra leader who does- n't know the difference between Ado' and a mixture of flour and water. Being unable to resist such a promising cast. I dug down deep and contributed another twenty-five cents to the already silver lined pockets of Molitor and Kraske, who already own half the movie houses in the country and don't even know who Robert Taylor was. a...

Let's see what's on the screen now. Hmm, the Anderson-Seefeldt newsreel photo'd by Don Warren, the ace camerman. He had so much trou'ble getting through ordinary doors due to his enormous width that he has invenled a new door which stretches when it sees him coming. Nw to see what he has Hlmed. Oh boy, there's John Butkus, president of the United States, coming down the steps of the White House. Now who can that 'be he's walking With? Oh, I know: that's Dr. Leon I.aPlace, principal of the Tilden Technical High School. They've just been listening to the senate delrberating over the passage of a bill proposing an additioin to Tilden Tech. Since John Butkus and Dr. LaPlace were classmates and fellow oflicers in the senior class of the old school, it loo-ks as though this thirty year old battle will be settled. Now the only difficulty is that it will be necessary to build a new school because the present structure is so old that it has been condemned. Off in the background I can recognize two familiar faces, those of Gene Walper, speaker of the house, and Steve Wasilenko, Governor of Illinois. who are the co-authors of the Nation's best selling book on that ever current problemf, How to Get Along With Women.

Realizing the difliculty of such a drive, Andersen has appointed James Helson, an old Civic Fund collector of Tilden, as chairman of the drive with the hope that he will be quite able to make the people yield as he did in the school. Science in the news features the showing of the latest in inter-planetary trans- portation which is a rocket plane designed by Louis Kaposta, the designer of the high powered baby carriage which was so popular because of its simplicity in operation that infants were able to take themselves out for rides in them. A metal which is lighter than air is used in the construction of this plane. It was invented by those famous metalurgists, Dr. Harold Sogin and Professor Jack Dixon, who were instrumental in the designing of the Thorstenson Skywaly extending from New York to San Fransisco with cross roads only at Pittsburg, Chicago, and Kansas City. This enables a person to span the continent from East to West in one day by auto. Seeing these inventions reminds me of the one made by that soft-hearted Tildenite, Roger Earl Brown. His gift to the mundane world is The Humane Mouse Trap which allows a mouse to eat the cheese in a trap without being snap- ped. The purpose of the trap is to preserve the fast diminishing mouse family. Then there is Helmut Barra who tried to do his bit for Tilden by inventing an automatic hat remover. Unfortunately for him at least, while he experimented with the gadget it not only removed his hat but a generous portion of his honor- able head. Thus it is that the Mueseum of Science and lndustry has planted a large cocoanut tree in honor of Barra. Ah, they're showing the sports review. I like to see what's going on in the world of sports. Wow! Look at that! Joe Coatar, owner and coach of the Chicago Bears, will send his team against Bill DeCorrevont's Washington Redskins for the Nat- ional Championship Football title. A grudge which dates back to these coaches' high school days will still be burning when these two teams meet at Harvey Field next Sunday. Coatar is placing his hope in the hard plunging of Hal Schumacher, the flashy running of Mike Fisher, and the passing of Slinging Pete Monaco and Cy Cycenas. Mandel Lasser has retired from the mat with the possession of the World Wrestling Title in his hands. In the boxing world Eldridge Sharpp is recalling the days of Joe Louis with his fast climb to the world heavyweight champion- ship. That's all of the newsreel. The show has been marvelous up to this point. I hope the feature picture will be a great hit also. But no sooner had I said this than the film began to get out of focus: blurring more and more. Soon all was in darkness, and I cried, 'll can't see! l can't see! Well, you better open your eyes. You're at Union Avenue already, called the trolley car conductor. 'AYou'll be late for school.

Q-'llbfgi - ' If . rgtqpv, , 11 PRIZE STGIQY HOLD THAT POSE Now listen to me, Bobby Clark, you will have to stop this candid camera business. The neighbors are complaining about you taking ridiculous pictures of them when they least expect it. Why, even your English teacher Wrote me that you snapped her picture when she stooped over to pick up a piece of paper. i'But, mother, you don't ---- And it isn't only other people's complaints that I mind. I'm tired of finding developing fluid on my best tablecloth, stains on the bathroom floor, and vile chemical smells on my towels. Aw gee whiz, murmured the disgusted Bobby as he slipped out of the house. A cheerful young girl of Bob's age was coming up the street. He looked up. 'Lo Mary, he grumbled to his best girl. Hello, Bobby, why so mournful? l'Oh, everyone'-s down on me. Mom's scolding about my messing the house up with my picture work and the neighbors and my teacher are complaining be- cause I take their pictures. You'd think it was hurting them or costing them some- thing. Well, it is embarrassing, Mary remonstrated. Last Saturday at the dance for example, when Jane White spilled the punch all over her dress, you pulled out that vest pocket edition of a candid camera and snapped her picture. People don't like to have their pictures taken when they aren't posing. Seeing no hope for consolation from Mary, Bobby retreated again into the house. Having nothing to do, he scanned the paper. One of the stories caught his eye. Mrs. Matilda Slethington, widow of the late millionaire, Ephraim Slethington, returned home today from her annual trip abroad. As usual, no pictures were allowed. One photographer tried to snap Mrs. Slethington and received a blow from the unwilling lady's umbrella for his trouble. It is now believed that Mrs. Slethington carries her umbrella on the brightest of sunshiny days for the express purpose of putting photo- graphers in their place. Ideas cropped into master Clark's head. If could only he could get a picture of this Slethington woman+ About nine-thirty that everring, Bobby's figure lurked near the wall of Mrs. Slethington's well known estate near the edge of town. With a final glance to see that no one was watching, Bobby skimmed the wall cautiously. He stole to a lighted window. Two female figures were sitting within: but alas, they were too far away for a picture in the poor light. If I can get in the house for a second I could get the picture and get away before they know what it's all about. It's worth a try anyway. Luckily a side door was open. He peeped down a dark hall and stepped warily in. Camera and flash powder in hand, Bobby made his way to the room from which the sound of voices issued. Every floor board creaked in his imagination andn fifty Mrs. Slethingtons reached at him with umbrellas. He reached the open door of the room, slipped in and stooped behind a chair. PRIZE STGRV The two women, one apparently a visitor, were discussing Mrs. S1ethington's trip. There was a creaking sound. 'ADid you hear something. Matilda? the visitor asked. A'It's now or never, Bobby concluded as he raised up to get a focus. A nearby pedestal swayed dangerously. A'Matilda, that pedestalfw Amid electrifying screams, the flash powder flared and the camera clicked. Bobby decided that it was high time to make an exit. Half way down the hall, disaster in the form of a hefty servant met Bobby. He hit the floor. Watch him Hawkins, he has a gun, I saw it flash, one of the females gasped' between high pitched -shrieks. In a few minutes sirening police cars came roaring up the long drive in answer to a report that a dozen women were being brutally murdered at the Slethington estate. The shadows of the bars made a beautiful composition against the gray cell walls. It would have been a splended shot. Bobby Clark sitting dismally in one corner was uninterested, however. An officer came and opened the cell door. Bobby followed out to where the desk sergeant sat. His father stood there, glowering. The desk sergeant spoke, 'Young man, your story seems to check all right. Your father has persuaded Mrs. Slethington not to press charges. You may go now. Maybe this will teach you to respect other people's rights to privacy. It was a week later at the dance. Bobby, who had just received a good ribbing from the gang, was dancing with Mary. Don't mind them, Bobby. I hope though. that this has taught you a lessorff' It has. I'm off candid camera shots for life, so help me. Oh, Bob, look at Jane sitting over there. Her feet must hurt. She has her shoes rv rt off. Where? Oh boy' what a chance! Hope she won't move her feet! CLICK I I I I WILLIAM WATERS - author :nuns Qwfwmf! 0 I' nn E .K at W 9 Q.

CRAFTSMAN CHRONICLE Listen, my readers, and you shall hear Of a Craftsman Staff that was so dear: They started this 'book in 'Thirty Seven And now it's finished by the grace of Heaven. The first thing to do when a book you start Is to have a dummy to learn by heart Not quite the kind that Bergen talks thru' But a settled form that you're s'posed to stick to. Pictures in it are misplaced and misnamedg The boys who appear are defaced and defamed: Next are written the funnytbone features Of crackpot artists and fuzzy-brained creatures. The prominent seniors are caricaturedl CAnd after this happens they can't be enduredj About them are written poems, jingles and such Which to us geniuses are just a soft touch. The sports by Ciene Walper, who's on the Times Staff Were Written for glory and not for a laugh. Activities of clubs were scribbled and scratched By Red-head Bedell whose brains can't 'be matched. Our Musical Member that We seldom see Is the eminent cornetist, William Henry: Our ace-in-the-hole upon whom we depend Is Tiny Bob Morris: when in need, he's a friend. The great little lim'ricks that you find in this section Were Written in part by Fran Finn's direction. And while We are speaking of prominent men These are only a few of US at Tilden. Mike Hinko's one Writer of all the boys Who gets his work done Without any noise C I ?j Mrs. Pearce, our sponsor, be-sides proof correcting Does all of the work, WE stand 'round directing. With the Messrs. McCurry, Van Artsen and Gleason: Plus Maivald and Keating there is no real reason Why the Craftsman this year -shouldn't be a success With these men standing by as we go to press. And so you now know, dear readers, just Why As I finish this poem I heave a'big sigh 'Cause, We started this book in the year 'Thirty-Seven And now we are thru' by the good grace of Heaven As you glance thru' the book you will probably see A few of the articles Written by me.

Once the popcorn on the ear popped off because of the extreme heat and my cattle thought it was snow and froze to death. Brown: Did you lose much money on the frozen cattle, Mike? I imagine they would be a total loss. Hinko: Oh no! While they thought it was cold they began to hop around to keep warm and shook their insides up thorough- ly. Brown: What has that got to do with profit? Hinko: Now we're getting frozen malt- eds out of dead cows. Fri Y Y Q1 Clilillf QWAIMMH' Qxj lf ew? Q?

THE LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OE THE SENIOR CLASS OE l938-39 We, the seniors, being of unsound mind and insane body, do give, bequeath, will, bestow, present, grant, and award to the faculty, student body, janitors, and engineers the following unique possessions of the Typical Topical Tardy Toddlers of Tilden: We are in a class Cof '38-'39j by ourselves in ability to thrust our parents into an early second childhood with our D's, to confound our teachers with our illogically represented assortment of heterogeneously arranged classes: to possess that unearthly amnesiatic tendency of overlooking the location of our institution of consultation, coupled with regretful inability to recall with any accuracy what- so-ever the predetermined periods, days and sometimes months designed for atten- dance by our peers, the Board of Education. After four years of the game that kills , these reminiscences Hash before us kaleidoscopically and bring to mind memories of those too few moments of concentraton. But, rain or shine, snow or hail, the will must be finished! So in our last ill-fated moments we bequeath: To Dr. Lunak: Tilden, really the best school under the jurisdiction of the North Central Association and capable of producing champions in real life as well as on the field of athletics. To Miss Sass: A vacation, a leave of absence, a sabbatical leave in order to learn Ancient Chinese and Japanese History at the University of Hawaii, so that when she comes back she can understand some of the programs the Toddlers of Tilden make up. To Mrs. Pearce: A roomful of activity cards, contributions to the Craftsman piled to the ceiling: five hundred pictures of seniors, clubs, teams, and the usual group of mentally incompetent, and physically handicapped bunch of Craftsman Cuties to get out the Tilden annual with a two day deadline. Ha! Ha! Ha! To Miss Wright: A system of locker arrangements so fixed that each boy has a different locker each period of the day thus assuring no tardinesses to any classes - Cno one will be able to get to them at alllj. To Mr. Strassman: The pupils of Tilden. As a psychoanalist he ought to be afble to find out what makes a pupil tick and why. In studying their minds he could have a perfect holiday. To Doc Walters: No socials, no girls, no orchestra, no cut-rate skating tickets. My-oh-my, what will he do with his spare time? To Sluefoot Sessler: A gory murder mystery! Joe Tilden found hanging from a beam in shop I3, with a knife in his heart, with his throat cut from ear to ear and with two bullet holes in his head, Who poisoned him? Mr. Sessler will find out that he committed suicide because he only got four S's: his other mark was a miserable E. Oh shame!! To Pop Mahurin: A couch with an attached microphone from which he can more comfortably conduct his class in gymnastics. To Wire-haired Eewkes: A perpetual motion comb that is perfectly flexible. It knows that there i-sn't any use to attempt to comb his hair, so why even try? To Ladies' Man Parkhill: A moving picture camera with a special profile attachment to take pictures of his super-skill when he plays tennis. SEIXIIQR WILL To Mr. Myers: A complete set of left-handed monkey-wrenches to fasten down some of the nuts in his many shops. To Mr. Goodrich: Another senior class, another yes, another election., another headache, another graduation and another sigh of relief. To Miss Cullison Cguardianship of that infamous delinquence chamber, other- wise known as the Make-up Roomj : A machine gun, a sixteen infch cannon, twenty cases of T.N.T., and nine boxes of hand grenades to subdue late-comets to classes. She will also need a case hardened steel cell door, two inch bars for the windows, and an armed guard to prevent the escape of the make-up room felons. To the C.l.C.: A camera with which to take pictures of the delegates at meet- ings. This would insure a complete turnout of all the members of this corpulently unsolid mass of campaign promisers club. When dreams come true so will your campaign promises. To the R.O.T.C.: Better known as The Resedacious Onematopoeiatic Tin- tinabulous Cotqueans : One hundred square miles of parade grounds plus two extra hours per day of double time by the originator of that new style dance step called, the Foo Goo Foo , Sergeant Moore, To the Signpainters: A swimming pool full of pigment of all colors, hues and varieties into which they can dip their toes and thus paint in the newest unap- proved manner of slapping the canvas. To the Tilden Tech Times: A dream come true-reporters who can report, headline writers who can compile heads, editors who can edit, and photographers who can photograph. You don't need a sponsor who can spons, you've already got one. To the Lunchroom: Purveyors of the finest of culinary delight, an arrange- ment by which each student could be served by the girl of his dreams. Or for an alternative, have a staff of artists' models as waitresses. SOME FUN. To the Junior Class: The heritage that is theirs. Tilden with all the joys and sorrows to come in their senior year. As seniors they will take over all the activities in the school and whether or not these activities succeed or fail is their res- ponsbility. So go to it fellows. The headache is your job. To the Sophmore Class: A chance to see Tilden's many teams in action and cheer them on to victory. This is the time to get into all the activities in sports or clubs that you have time for.. This is the time to learn to be a leader, your chance to show your leadership abilities will come later. To the Freshman Class: A complete map of the school with all the classrooms, offices, libraries, gyms and cafeterias clearly noted: also a warning to the Effer- vescing Innocents of Tilden against steam-heated lockers with hot and cold run- ning water and electric lights. Don't you freshmen believe it: you can't get electric lightsl!!! In concludng this class will which shall 'become effective immediately upon our departure from the jurisdiction of the school, we would like all who peruse this stupefying bit of testament to know that our will is like a dream, written on water with the sugar of sweet memories, and that it will dissolve with the first stirring.
