What besides life itself does man crave most? What will he sweat for, fight for, and even die for? It is Victory - Victory interpreted in all of its broad, extensive meanings. Today free men the World over are fighting and dying to gain Victory over tyranny, bondage, and power-mad individuals. In the lab- oratories the doctor is seeking victory over disease and pestil- ence, the chemist, over the unsolved mysteries of nature, and the physicist, over the problems of matter and motion. In school we students are seeking victory over illiteracy and ignorance. In the broadest sense we are all seeking victory over the barriers to a better life, and it is to this all-powerful, driving Victory that We dedicate this Craftsman. irfkir these pages You have, within these pages, a story of Tilden Town, its citizens and their activities. We who have had the privilege and responsibility of editing this Craftsman have endeavored to record chronologically, month by month, with camera and pencil the candid bits of school life, the social highlights, and a few of the many little incidents that have made up these past ten months as Well as to present the regular roster and record of the school's many and varied organizations. It has proven to be quite an eventful and successful year-championship football, wrestling, and senior track teams, another prize winning R.O.T.C. unit, added trophies and special honors, and of course the giant annual Hobby Show and the festive Circus and Homecoming. If we have succeeded in transferring to these pages even a small part of the life and action of this past year, and of the increased spirit and determination that the present threat to our freedom has kindled, we will consider our job Well done. 7 6 wL3 ? leafs.-as 9 ffrffef I ocT-1941 4, Tuestlal' I 55,50 I NOV- 1941 Wed' 3 s ay 2 x99 off' utskai may XQAZ eff' ogaad T AR 1942 uesy Jr QW APR 1942 D W ea Sday Ig X 1 I F'JAN 35 49 . . 1 Q t ' 5 W I f- X I , J M y ' f J ,' 1 A .

Price In the short time he has been our principal, Mr. Price has Won the respect and admiration of students and faculty alike. Greater unity and co-operation in the student body have been established through his ability to accept their point of view. His soft, Well modu- mand strict attention. Deep piercing grey eyes, high lated speaking voice and commanding earnestness de- torehead, erect posture, and immaculate, but not conspicuous dress reveal a conservative nature. Mr. Price's quiet dignity and Whole-hearted devotion to his school will become cherished memories in the hearts of his students. Principal v-ff MJVJ if i 11 avg 'N' ,W 'ffm Endowed with a prepossessing personality accompanied by a fine sense of humor and the gift of understanding, Miss Smyth, our assistant principal, is a true friend to all technical students. Equally efficient in matters of discipline and those of aiding confused stu- dents with their personal problems, Miss Smyth has the gratitude of every Tilden student. Small in stature, but nevertheless impressive, Mr. Myers, our shop superintendent, has the look of one who is used to being listen- ed tcr- and he is. Gifted with inexhaustable energy which enables him to see to the purchase of shop supplies and the maintainence of shop machinery, Mr. Myers deserves a vote of thanks for keeping our many shops well supplied and working smoothly. IN CUB OFFICE Calm and dignified, Mrs. Witt, our school treasurer, attends to countless details throughout the year, yet never loses her radiant smile. To her accustomed duties of keeping the accounts of clubs, the circus, and many other organizations has been added this year the sales of Defense stamps and bonds-no small business in itself. Our office is a busy but attractve placei mingled with the clat- ter of the mimograph, the whirr of the telephones, and the busy hum of general activity can be heard frequently the welcome sound of laughter. For this we are indebted, partly, at least, to our office staff. May we present them: Mrs. West, in charge of records: Miss McCambridge, secretary to Mr. Myers: Miss Hickey, secretary to Miss Smyth: and Miss Tarr, secretary to Mr. Price. Cheers for the office staff! ADJUSTMENT Above: The adjust- ment department at work. Here, the many and varied woes of Techmen are ironed out. Left: Mr. Strassman, director of this essential administrative depart- ment. Every student at Tilden, from bewildered freshie to prominent senior, is familiar with Mr. M. Strassman. In room 140 Mr. Strassman with the co-operat- ion of his able staff, Miss Kuehne, who is in charge of testingi Miss Litvin, economic aid, Miss Penn, N. Y. A. : Miss Quinn, remedial readingl and Mr. Coble, failures, assists many boys who have gotten off the smooth path and onto the rough road. Each teacher has the opportunity to use the adjustment office every day for one period. Here they assist the boys who need help of any kind. In add- ition, information is given to boys who are interested in college or in securing scholarships. PLACEMENT The Placement Office, which endeavors to find positons for Tildenites, has been a busy place this last year. In charge of this service is Mr. Williamson, who has placed sixty percent of approximately eight hundred graduated Tech- men in many vital defense jobs, as draftsmen, machinists, office Workers, and Welders. It must be remembered that this service is for the undergraduates also, many of whom obtain much needed part-time jobs, to help pay some of their expenses. In the placing of a boy his scholastic abilities, personal appearance- and many other minor but extremely important details are in- vestigated by his future employer. The placing of these boys in the industrial world helps to build up and maintain the splendid name of Tilden Tech. Bight: Mr. William- son, director of the placement office. Below: Here, serious faced lads fill out ap- plications for positions after graduation. Good luck, fellows. OUR LIBRARY Books, books, and more books-fifteen thousand of them! This bookworm's haven is our library. The selection and circulation of these books is in the hands of Miss Ethel Hedenbergh and her stafi consisting of Mrs. Higgins, Miss Babich, and thirty-five guards. Unlike the library in a co-educational high school ours contains the latest of the most highly specialized technical liter- ature in the fields of architecture, engineering, and science. With this inform- ation at our disposal we are better prepared to meet today's demands ot fast moving science and industry. Mx. Post Drawing H ff Miss Seitz lnziguage . lvlr.

As we look back over the four years we have spent here, we realize how many benefits and privileges we have enjoyed. We sincerely thank our teachers for their constant effort to prepare us for whatever may lieahead, to promote in us habits of clean living and clear thinking, and to inspire us to strive for the perpetuations of the ideals of freedom.

This September, through the efforts of Mrs. Gentleman, former social studies teacher at Tilden, a program of extended student participation in school govern- ment was inaugurated in the form of a Student Council. Begun with the idea of bringing all the organizations in the school under one head, the Council has the support of every loyal Tildenite, student, and teacher. Since Mrs. Gentleman's transfer in Ianuary, Mr. Fewkes, physical educa- tion instructor, has taken over the duties of spon- sor. Aiding Mr. Fewkes in the all-important job of sponsoring the Student Council are Miss Murphy and Mr. Gammertsfelder. members of Tilden's faculty. Objectives of the organization are multiple. It aims to familiarize the students with the school's problems and to teach them how to handle these problems to develop student leaders, to orientate new students by contact with the upper-classmen to provide practical experience in the use of the tools of democracy, and finally to drive home the realization that every student and teacher has an important part in the building a better Tilden. All these objectives are accomplished by bringing about a closer co-operation among all the organ- izations in the school. The council is patterned somewhat after our national government. Each division elects a re- liable delegate to attend the bi-weekly meetings Olson, Kneen. Biedermann, Angus. Wickman, Strauf, Hesse. Castleberry. Kroc, Roman, Cundiff, Magnuson, Slier, Lurie, Ioneliunas. Dill. Moy, Wolniak, LaFlame, Sobczak, Markus, Halverson, Mossman, Stronaek. Catuara. Bioudo, Powers, Mihleder, Weiss. Otto. Gygantou.

From the entire student body four officers are elected each year. For the 1941 fall semester, after a heated campaign, Iames McBride, pres- ident: Ieffery Barnes, vice-president: Robert Scharding, secretary: and Arthur Williams, treas- urer, were elected. For the 1942 spring semester they were the same with the exception of the president. Upon Mr.McBride's resignation Robert Schoder was elected president. Within the Student Council are representatives of the ninety-six divisions in the school. Also within the Council is an Executive Council, made up of the four officers and one student representa- WE CHOOSE tive for each year,1A to 4A, which, because it is a small group, meets once ct week. The purpose of this Executive Council is to discuss and act on matters pertaining to the school which they then report to the entire Student Council. The members of the Student Council in turn report to their divisions so that every Tildenite is informed of the work of the Council. Also meeting with the Executive Council are the five members of the president's cabinet. These five boys are charged with co-ordinating all the school activities under the one head, the Student Council. These cabinet members are: Herbert Hesse, Department of Public Relations: Harold EXECUTIVE Second How: Mohler. Williams. Hesse. Stronczek, Angus, Stolarski. Smolka, Monaco, Ridgway. First Row: Wolnick, Knapp, Schoder. McBride. Scharding, Barnes, Kneen. OUR LEADERS Angus, Department of Interior: William Kneen Department of Safety: Robert Knapp, Department of Socialization: and Cadet Captain Walter Smolka, Department of R. O. T. C. These boys have done a wonderful job in getting their depart- ments organized and working smoothly. During its first year the Council has completed the work of organization and has accomplished many things. The high lights of these are: the get- ting of soap in the many shops of Tilden: a fresh- man assembly to acquaint the new students with Tilden: a new locker arrangement and air raid procedure: a Victory Book Campaign, in which Tilden did more than its share in supplying the armed forces with books: a part in putting over the annual Tilden Circus: and clean-up and safety campaigns. All in all, the Student Council has done much to improve the school and, at the same time, to enable the student body to have a bigger voice in the school affairs. which after all are their affairs. Of course such an undertaking has succeeded only with the full, wholehearted co-operation of the entire student body and faculty. With good judgement and capable leaders the sudents have accomplished a great deal and in turn have gain- ed many privileges for themselves. Most import- ant, this training has helped them to bceome stalwart citizens of the U. S. A.! E OFFICERS Ieffery Barnes, Vice-Pres: Robert Scharding, Sec: Iames McBride, Pres: Art Williams. Treas.

Those Tildenites who are members of this club serve the school as members of teams, of musical organizations, and as speakers, dan- cers, and in many other capacities about the school. Mrs. Lutz, the present faculty sponsor of this club, first conceived the idea and originated the club five years ago. During the years in which this club has been in existence it has helped in many projects, among which are the well known Assembly Hall show for the Tilden Circus and the Math Assem- bly which is put on to demonstrate the necessity of mathematics in everyday life. Recently the Dramatic Club, a new branch, has been added to the Service Club. From all the talent that have joined this new club it is easy to see that beyond a doubt this club will become one of the most prominent clubs in the school. MATH ASSEMBLY Collaborating with the choral clubs, the Service Club again put on the Math Assembly, by which mathematics was demonstrated as fundamental to many of the subjects taught in a technical high school and to the problems of life itself. In this assembly was an application to Ameri- can problems by an explanation by a father, Lefty Carins, to his son, Ioe DeCiro, explaining an income tax report. It was shown that math was needed in airplane designing and operating. Mathematics needed in navigating was explained by the use of a sextant, which is studied in some geometry classes. An astrologer, Walter Smolka, lightened the program by quoting from a text as he explored the theory of the universe according to the number four. The usage of math in science was illustrated by an application to medicine, chemistry, and physics.

THE WOOD SHOPS This year the wood shops have deviated slight- ly from their usual course cmd are pursuing one Mr. Schaeffer advises a beginner in wood turning. more immediately vital to the preservation of our nation. Our four wood shops,--the wood, pattern, model, and wood turning-are making airplane models-models which will be sent to our air corp training depots to aid in the task of instruct- ing fledgling pilots. The models are to be of planes of every nation and will help our aspirant pilots to learn to identify enemy aircraft. Tilden's quota of five hundred model airplanes is almost complete and the Wood shops will run once more on their regular schedule. Boys who desire advanced training in wood shop may choose as one of the shops in their shop sequence, model building. Here the boys con- struct boat models. Battle ship, destroyers, yachts and sailing ships are among those built by the students. The energy and labor involved in the construction of these models is well worth the while, for they show amazingly intricate and ex- act detail. The student has every reason to be proud of his work. As basic training in woodworking tech students are offered courses in wood, pattern, and wood- turning. These courses, usually taken by freshmen give the beginner a chance to become accustom- ed to the handling of hand and power tools. If a student is trained from the first to handle tools correctly he will have no trouble when he comes in contact with the tools of the trade he chooses as his life's vocation. In the wood and woodturning courses the student becomes acquainted with the construction of wall shelves, bowls, and small tables. Among the tools he handles are sanders, lathes, planers, sharpers, and power saws. The Theory gives way to practical ex- tperience in wood shop. l pattern shop is slightly in advance of the wood and woodturning shops and offers the student elementary training in the skill of pattern making. The pattern maker's job is an important one for he is the one who makes patterns from which engine and other castings are made. Our twenty week course is designed to give the student a taste of pattern making. If his interest is sufficient and his mark warrants, a student may take advanced pattern making. This basic training is necessary for it is from the shops of our high schools that the craftsmen of the future come. Model building is fascinating and popular hobby among Tildenites. -P 1 -mu -5.1, -3.9. Y ., 7 '22- 1 .- V.: ful.: -.s -Q ':-'.'

It is the necessary medium for expressing thoughts and feelings. Language is a tool and we should all attempt to be master craftsmen. Great leaders are eloquent speakers: however, it is not how much they say but how they say it. After the war is over, our ability to speak with our foreign neighbors will directly affect the new world policy. It is our very highest responsibility to maintain our fundamental principles of relations among all nations when we return to peaceful pursuits. These principals can exist only so long as nations attempt to settle their differences not by wars but by a peaceful discussion in a common language. In previous wars waged in the defense of our nation we suffered our greatest defeat not on the field of battle but at the council table. A people edu- cated in many languages will prevent this from occuring again. THE OUR LEADERS LANGUAGES ir PAN - AMERICAN CLUB The Pan-American Club, sponsored by Mrs. Friedman, was formerly called the E1 Circula Es- penol. The club is now affiliated with the Student Pan-American League whoses headquarters are in Miami, Florida. All Latin-Americans in Tilden became mem- bers automatically, but Americans wishing to be- come members must have an E average. The club receives pamphlets from the Student Pan-Ameri- can League and studies the songs, dances, and costumes of Latin-America.

LE CERCLE FRANCAIS A bit of the enduring French spirit has been instilled in us by the Tilden French Club. The club meetings held under the auspices of Miss Seitz, the sponsor, remind us that there is and always will be French nation. Conquered though they may seem, the French people are not ones to live in bondage. It is the fine spirit of the French people that our French club represents. But we are not always serious minded: at our semi-monthly meetings the members sing, pro- duce plays and converse in French. A conversa- tion between members would go somewhat like this: Bonjour! Comment allez-vous? Ie vais bien, merci. Et vous? Comme ci, comme ca. All this boils down to a greeting between friends. The officers in charge are Arthur Williams, President: Simon Krouliadis, Vice-President' Whitney Iohns, Secretary: and Walter Nemoff, Treasurer. Our French Club is an ever present reminder that French art and beauty are not dead. Business and pleasure combine to make up a livelv meeting ol the Le Cercle Francais. The Deutsch ollicers, Engeln, Gabriel. Karr. and Hudecek do a little planning or plotting tor the next get-together of the German Club. Der Deutsche Verein, one ot the oldest organi- zations in the school, was formed to give Tilden German students an opportunity to converse in German and to put into effect what was studied in class. In the monthly meetings the repeated use of the language is required, Thus the student ob- tains additional dexterity in its practical applica- tion in a manner quite enjoyable to him. Under the sponsorship of Miss Seitz, the club continues to live up to the traditional merriment at meetings that is one of its outstanding charac- teristics. These meetings begin with the singing of the club song, Der Deutsche Verein, followed by several selections of beautiful romantic melo- dies of old Germany. The boys then have a dis- cussion on the lives of famous German composers or on the technical accomplishment of German scientists. The spirit of Der Deutshe Ve1'ein is excellent- ly expressed in the words of an anonymous Ger- man poet: Geselligkeit, Gemuetlichkeitp Und auch ein bischen Fleiss, Das ist das Ziel in gangen Kreis.

President Most important among the five departments of the new Student Council is the Public Relations Department, headed by Herbert Hesse. It is the important and difficult job of this department to co-ordinate all publications and publicity in the school and news about Tilden in the neighbor- hood newspapers. The department acts as a press-agent for the school. This means that our own Tilden Tech Times, the Craftsman, all assem- blies held here at school, the many bulletin boards and various posters throughout the halls, the Til- den Parent Teachers Association, and the local newspaper are all included under the Public Relations Department. This year the department has devised a system to get Tilden more publicity. A group of boys has been organized to submit prepared articles on events at Tilden to the local newspapers. The idea has proved a success and will be expanded next year. Working with the Public Relations de- partment is the Clipping Bureau which collects and files these articles for future reference. Also this year, the department has established a com- mittee of students to see that the posters put up throughout the halls are correct and present a neat appearance to any visitors who may see them. All the activities of this department are directed towards letting the public know what a fine school Tilden is. PUBLIC RELATIONS Standing: Petricek. Monfort, Hesse, Anahlt.

These clip- pings outline exciting football games, dashing H. O. T. C, units, impressive social events, and prominent Tildenites. They present a keen por- trayal of good old Tilden loyalty, and the all out spirit to keep our school surging ahead. Every clipping is another milestone in our long career in the limelight, a symbol of a victorious past. All old clippings are posted away in scrap books for posterity in gaze upon, and appreciate how Tilden has consistently advanced. These clip- pings never tail to inspire students with enthrall- ing articles of their school's progress, to instill in them the go Tilden go urge. Much credit goes to Miss Simcox, the sponsor. No shoving, pushing, or hitch-hiking while the M. P's are on duty. DEPT. OF SAFETY The Department of Safety of the new Student Council has the important job of promoting safety throughout Tilden. Headed by William Kneen and sponsored by Mr. Post, the work of this de- partment is divided between the Red Cross and the Safety Council, each of which has its own separate functions. One of the important duties of the Safety Coun- cil is to promote safety in the shops. To do this, special safety campaigns are run and boys are instructed in the proper use of machines. This department also has charge of distributing soap in the shops. This year a group of boys has been appointed to inspect regularly the soap containers and fill them when necessary, a plan which has succeeded quite well. Standing: Szczesniak, Buhnaann.

Meitz, Mr. Gamertsfelder, Pajor, Biederman, chairman RED CROSS A separate division of the Department of Safety of the Student Council is the Tilden chapter of the American National Red Cross. This Iunior Red Cross division, headed by three students, Leonard Beiderman, chairman, Iohn Mertz, and Edward Pajor, with Mr, Gamertsfelder, faculty sponsor, has the job of promoting the Red Cross and dis- tributing Red Cross literature at Tilden. To keep the school informed of Red Cross act- ivities the members of the committee alternates in attending the monthly meetings of the Chicago Iunior Red Cross at the downtown office. In a short, intensive campaign conducted in the entire school with the help of the whole Student Council, the committee succeeded in raising almost nine hundred dollars to help swell the Red Cross War Relief Fund. The student body itself contributed S1115 the faculty gave S701 and the students, by division rooms gave 340. This was all turned directly over to the National Red Cross. This money was in addition to the share of the Civic Fund which is annually donated to the Bed Cross.

TILDEN TECH TIMES Meet the Times Staff!-The boys who strive so industriously to edit the Tilden Tech Times as often as possible, for the entertainment, informa- tion, and education of the students. During the first semester the Times was published under the capable direction of Editor-in-chief, Paul Brown. At the end of the semester Paul became honorary editor to allow' for promotions amongst a rapidly advancing group of staff members. Ernest Klimczak was prornotddi to Editor-in chief, Robert Knapp became Associate Editor, and a competent group of page editors assumed the duties vacated by graduating staff members. The staff has done very well, and is confidently ex- pecting an excellent rating fom the National Scholastic Press Assocation. PUTTING OUT THE TIMES Where's that story? ............ Here proofread this! or 18 point type?..v..h.....Write 250 words on baseball! ............ These and hundreds of other emphatic phrases pervade the surroundings as the Times staff strives diligently to edit the Tilden Tech Times. The process of editing the Times seems to be a simple and an easy task, but a glance into the workings of the staff reveals a complex system in which all staff members are geared to perform a specific function. The staff, guided by Misses Gallagher and Kritzer, performs the duties of securing and writing all the news stories, gathering gossip, writing editorials and headlines, proofreading, and numerous other small yet necessary tasks.

The business staff is headed by business manager, Howard Grimms and advertising man- ager, Iohn Neasbe- In charge of exchanges, which is the trading of newspapers with schools through out the country, are Bob Mallory and Bill Kunz. Not to be forgotten, are the efficient group of boys guided by Mr. Mohler, who sees to it that all Tildenites get a copy of ye Tilden Tech Times. The business affairs are all handled by these students, with only occasional advice from the various sponsors, so it can be seen that theirs is a grave responsibility.

PRINTING Absence slips, file cards, Tech Times, letter- heads, circus programs, memo pads, the Crafts- man - these are a few of the hundreds of jobs that are set up by the linotypists, and printed in the pressroom during the course of the year. Six machines are constantly in operation in the lino- type room setting type, under the direction of Mr. Keating. The small jobs, after being proofread, are sent in the pressroom, where the type forms are locked-up in iron frames called chases. The forms are then put on the presses, made ready, and the presses begin to roll. The larger jobs, such as the Craftsman and the circus programs are sent from linotype into Mr. Maiva1d's composing room, where the pages are locked-up, often as many as sixteen pages being put into a single chase. These large jobs are then wheeled into the pressroom and the same procedure of make-ready follows, although on a larger scale. The pressroom is very well equip- ped, having thirteen Gordon presses, and two Miehle cylinder presses, which are used on the large jobs. In addition there is a thirty-six inch cutter, a stitching machine, and a puncher. Although not a part of the printing depart- ment, the typing classes, taught by Miss Clancy, must not be forgotten since they too are a vital organ in Tilden's shop courses. It is in typing classes that the numerous mimeograph stencils for bulletins, test papers, and announcements, are made. . 'lit' I, N 4 v 1 I I ' 1 -ai 1 V ' N! . : -. -w wa V. . 'I .

Bogosian Bracken Eller Marovitz Zlntak The Chicago Public High School Football Championship, a goal which every prep football team in this great metropolis tries every year to gain, is ours this year. Each squad of eleven men fights tooth and nail to stay in the fray as long as possible. Then at the end of the season the one which has fought cleanly, tediously, and worked hardest and which has overcome all its opponents receives the honor of Football Champ- ions. That is what Tilden's wonder team oi 1941- 42 has done. It has brought to our school the Football Championship of the Public High Schools for 1941-42. Not only the Championship but also individual awards of honor were heaped upon the team's stalwart members and coach. Hard, Uvodich, and Schumacher received the honor of being on the All-City team, which is picked by all the leading sports writers on our Chicago papers. Not quite making the team but getting honorable mention were Fencl, Hamilton, and Mazzacco. At the end of the season, the faculty and students, in ap- preciation of the achievement of the football team gave a banquet which many celebrities were invited. Later Mayor Kelly awarded the entire squad with watch fobs. Tilden started its pigskin season early in Nov- ember by defeated the new and green Gage Park eleven, 47 to 0. The following week came AND THE CHAMPS PLAYED ON the rivalry game of the Central section, Tilden vs. Lindblom. To the Eagle's regret the Blue Devils trimmed them to the tune of 20-0. Then Du Sable and Kelly fell under the vicious onslaught of the Gold and Blue. Suddenly a calamity befell the team in the Farragut game when Mike Schallaci was blocked low and his shin bone was broken. Fate had its laugh then for it was in 1940, against Farragut, that Norman Krueger, center, had his knee cap and foot broken. Meanwhile it could be seen that Tilden had its share of stars such as Uvodich, Mazzacco, and Schumacher who shared honors in the scoring end: also quarter-back Hamilton who displayed splendid leadership on the field and who at the end of the season was voted upon as the most valuable player by his teamates. Captain Mies- kowzski, Hard, Peterson, Fencl, Protopas, Kovach, and Krueger, these linemen who through their tireless efforts in breaking through opponents defense also gained recognition as the fastest line in the city. Thus through combined teamwork they kept right on and took Englewood, Phillips, Crane,and Fenger respectively, always entering the game as the underdog, but constantly upsetting their opponents until the Leo game when they suffered the second defeat of the season, losing first to West High in Waterloo, Iowa. So the many of us who are graduating wish you luck in the coming season. L, v ,. xv if ,ff f. Vw my gk , if N 5, . X w yik 2: 2 xx 1 in., , ,VXA , .Cf if ,ff Q-i , - f an ark K 2 sk 4 ku., ' 4. si.

KS With this encouraging yell of the student sup- porters led by our faithful cheer leaders ringing in their ears, our able-bodied football team rolls down the field crushing all opponents who chance their way. At any time when things look good or bad for our worthy football team, our cheer- leaders are there ready with a soul-resounding cheer, to hearten and encourage if in bad times. to commend and praise if in good. These boys who have helped win many a victory are led by a prominent senior, Bob Hedmark, who has been in charge of the cheer squad for four semesters and has helped the other leaders boast our foot- ball team to the Public High School Champion- ship this year. Every day after the eighth per- iod these boys try out many different yells, tumb- ling, twisting, and summersaulting in the air while the halls resound. As the last yell fades away one dreams of the next football season and our Worthy cheer leaders encouraging our team to victory. Above: Kozlauskas, Meyer, Hellmer. Below: Sockredes, Vandermark.

The team, better known as the Sophs , under Coach Warga's management won four games, lost four, tied one. Their first game with Farr- agut netted a 12 to 0 victory, but at a later en- gagement they dropped out 7 to 0. Crane defeat- ed our team twice, first 7 to O then 20 to 8.

Following this, they came to a deadlock with Kelly, O to U. Making up for the tie though Tilden later returned home with a 7 to O victory over Kelly. Then the young Eaglets of Lindblom did what their elders could not: they beat the Gold and Blue 12 to 2. The entire squad was composed of forty-seven men in uniform. Of these, outstanding in the kicking end of the business were backfield man Prasky and Nelson, end. Iaderholm, a good runner and line plunger, with Stachnich, quarter- back, a master at calling plays at decisive moments, should make a swell combination on the varsity. Time will bear this out. Thus with the new material and inexperience of the fellows at playing football, Coach Warga molded and started the making of future stars. Following him Coach Harvey took over and finish- ed the job during spring practise with the varsity. Those who were thought to be good material and showed promise will prove their worth during the fall against real competition. The Ironheads Top How Coach Blackshaw Israel Breskovich Emerson Karpowicz, Tomczyk, Bukowski, Donald- son Gedke Bottom Row Goldman Lunquist Wolski Strauss Cohn Thompson, Ukinski. A championship soccer team was the goal of the hard fighting boys under Mr. Blackshaw, but even though they had the spirit and the proper mental attitude of a winning team, the few capa- ble players the team had, could not endure the physical strain of playing the whole game entirely by themselves. Another probable factor which contributed to shatter the dreams of the team was an old nemesis of Tilden's, namely Kelly High. For the last three years Kelly has nosed out Tilden by just one point and it's odd but true, that the margin of victory in each year had been scored on a penalty kick, So you might call the penalty kick, Tilden's main jinx. SOCCER Although the team was not invincible it never- theless had a highly successful season. After be- ing beaten by Hyde Park their first time out, the Ironheads came back to defeat the Hyde Parkers in a nip-and tuck-battle.The score was 4-3. The team then tied Kelly for first place honors who then later defeated the Techmen, in the semi- final playoffs. Actually Tilden out played Kelly but the need of a few capable substitutes proved to be the deciding factor in the eventual outcome. Nothing but praise must be given to the soccer team. At goalkeeping Tomczyk proved to be very capable. Bukowski and Gedtke were efficient backs all year round. Emerson, a stone wall all season, received much needed able assistance from Donaldson and Ricter. Kurpawicz played good soccer and was a very efficient manager of the team. Other efficient players were Tundquist. Wolski, the captain, Breskovitz, Strauss, Cohn, Ukmski, Goldman, Battle, and Thompson. So you see it was a small roster, in fact the smallest in the city.

Again and again the world has been wracked by destructive wars, and as often people have risen from the debris to hope for peace. Without a complete study and knowledge of the past we cannot hope to improve upon the world conditions of today, to build the great new world of tomorrow. The students of our social study department have an opportunity to study and discuss world affairs in school assemblies and sometimes with other schools. In the fall semester the group be- low, known as the Social Studies Forum ably pre- sented to the student body the importance of Pan- American solidarity. From such leaders in our school come the leaders of tomorrow.

Physics may be said to be the fundamental phy- sical science because, more than any other, it studies the fundamental relations, the other phy- sical sciences being largely special applications of these relations. It is only through the methods of present day chemistry and physics that mod- ern man thrives and develops various industries. Chemistry, in brief is, a study of the particles of which substances are composed. This subject is fascinating because it provides a glimpse of the unseen world and explains many of the so called mysteries of nature. CHEM CLUB Vice Pres. Carlson, Sponsor Goodrich. and Pres. Iones experiment. Throughout the year a group of young chemists comprising the Tilden Chemistry Club has met every week in Room 305 in order to view new ex- periments. In addition several movies were shown such as, Liquid Air and Chemical Effects in Elec- tricity, and volunteer lectures were given by the boys themselves. The future chemists, numbering slightly over forty, learned in their chem classes as well as at the chem meetings that symbols, such as CBa Na SJ 12, mean three very important elements, Barnium, Sodium, and Sulfur, not as some might say a doz- en of bananas. The Tech Chem Club is affiliated with the Amer- ican Institute of Science and Engineering Clubs and is under the Sponsorship of Mr. Goodrich. This Institute has sent the club many interesting pamphlets concerning theories of once famed chemists such as Ioseph Priestly and Iohn Dalton and also pamphlets on successful experiments of the Du Pont Corporation. The success of the club for the past semester is credited to the club officials, Edward Quick, Pres- ident: Raymond Ridgway, Vice-President and Micheal Cicholas, both Treasurer and Secretary.

BIOLOGY CLUB Beorganized by Miss Swenson, the Biology club now has fifty biology students as members. The only requirement for membership is to be a bio- logy student or to be interested in biology. The purpose Miss Swenson had in mind when she reorganized the club was to further the knowledge of stu- dents by research and experiment. With their annual circus side show, Hawaiian Nights , funds are raised to buy new charts, stuffed animals, and a variety of plants and flowers. Their meetings are held every second Thursday when experiments and discussions are held. The Biology Club is always helping the war effort by experimenting in chemical gardening. These experiments may lead to a large productive victory garden. The boys that are serving as officers and giving a great deal of their time are: George Zalac, Pres: Carmen Vella, Vice-Presi Robert Bagby, Secre- tary: and Iames Lusk, Treasurer. 49 l Mx ilfl-'rlilflz Nz Vwltxzifivzlicli bliss Sikytct Mx. Hummr' Biology Miss Swmison MISS Francis Miss Boddow Dr. Hiumstmi GENERAL SCIENCE AN D BIOLGGY The steps man has taken in science within the past two centuries have lifted the present civil- ization to an undreamed of plane. Science today is the magic which throws open countless doors of knowledge and confort to all mankind. Back in the 18th century, science was a field of witch- craft and black magic which was not to be tam- pered with. Brave men experimented and found a field filled with secrets which could be mastered and used in behalf of mankind. The result of this attitude in man brought about the development of a systematic knowledge of the physical, chem- ical, and biological structure of the earth and its inhabitants. Although America is forced today to turn her scientific knowledge and resources to war, tomorrow she will use this knowledge to create and promote a better America.

In this course the students acquaint themselves with many of the perplexing problems which arise in the five to six thousand parts of that complex mechan- ism, the auto. The students also study the maintenance of autos, which in these times is so important to the American people who have become accustomed to their daily usage. Besides receiving this thorough knowledge of auto mechanics, the students are taught the intelligent operation of cars. Thus Tilden is aiding in the campaign to reduce the nation's huge death toll from automobile accidents. This training is not only useful in civil- ian life but also in the service of our country: for with the army's increased emphasis on mechanized equipment, the training a student receives in this depart- ment should prove to be his most valuable asset While in the service. FORGE AND FCDUNDBY The pattern maker's skill is proven in the found- ry from whence come all the castings so essential to national defense. Our school is possessed of a foundry shop con- taining the largest cupola to be found in any edu- cational institution in the city. Mr. Iohnson, Mr. Shultz and Mr. Hoffman aid their students in the craft of making and pouring molds. The foundry shops, very popular here at Tilden, afford the stu- dents an opportunity to become aquainted with the trade of the foundryman,Witl'1out whom the national defense effort would bog down. Accompanied by the clanging of hammers and the roar of the forge furnace the student bravely endeavors to fashion a White hot piece of metal. The student who takes this course finds it very interesting and constructive and is especially in- terested in the five Week instruction period in Wel- ding. Under the supervision of Mr. Buchanan, Mr. Montgomery, Mr. Brenan, and Mr. Fleming the student becomes acquainted with the manufacture of center punches, screw drivers, and learns vari- ous welds used in industry.

With the importance of aircraft and aircraft production being stressed throughout the nation. it is readily understandable why so many students have chosen to enroll in the aircraft shops as a prelude to the aeronautical vocations they plan to follow after their gradua- tion. In the Aircraft Shops, under the capable super- vision of Mr. Christianson, the students study the theory and the basic principles of design while receiving preliminary training in the construction of the fuselage, wings, and empennage of air- planes. struction of a glider wing Left: Mr. Smith gets in on the problem Lower left: Seeing what makes it not tick Below: Mr. Christiansen helps in the con KEEP FLYIN' Above: Techmen display work done in aero shop.

L AERONAUTICS The full course of study available to students taking Aircraft Engines consists of two semesters' work under Mr. Burgchardt, the instructor. During the first semester, engine principles, theory, and the composition of the motor are taught. In the second semester the students obtain valuable ex- perience in the handling of engines by actually running and adjusting them. Tilden can be proud of the extensive training given in this course, for after a Tilden student has met the exacting standards of our aircraft shops he is fully capable of taking a prominent position in the aircraft industry. if .1- 'Ji 1 ' w , ..,g-- U will ,is xi ELG, V-25:51 f- , . . waqzgt-T' uk, K 54. , mu V il' '- brH?f'f' -11 sf... . . 1, JI I V, A, YT -1- I 1 -',A . 7 4 fx J .

'kirir ACHIEVEMENT DINNER Scholarship, Sportsmanship, Citizenship and Manhood - these are the principal traits of some 210 promnent Tilden Knights who attended Til- den's twenty-first annual Achievement Dinner which was held at the Stock Yards Inn on Ianuary 20. Pesent at the dinner were the students who had achieved the most in all fields of endeavor -championship athletes, high ranking students, R.O.T.C, officers. club leaders, editors, class off- icers-all were honored by invitations to attend the dinner. This annual event is Tilden's way of saying Thank You to all the enterprising Techmen who have faithfully served Tilden. For twenty-one years Tilden has been the only high school in the city to show its appreciation of the student's efforts. To attend is an honor many strive for but few attain. The program was opened with the singing of the National Anthem and the Pledge of Allegiance after which the dinner was served. A feeling of comradship was brought about by the singing of many old-time favorites. Mr. Price, our pincipal extended a hearty welcome to all present. and Mr. H. Hagen, District Superintendent, spoke briefly. The impressive ceremony of the sword, the shield and the buckler was then given. Tilden- ites spoke of the deep significance of the embl- ems as symbolized by the various weapons of the knight. The blank shield was first presented and then was emblazoned with the symbols of Citzen- ship. Scholarship, Sportsmanship, and Manhood. The sword, emblem of truth and righteousness and the Buckler, protector of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, were then entrusted unto the Knights of Tilden. Following this inspiring cer- mony, Mr Howard Kostbade, successful business relations of the student to his employer. The relations of the student with his employer. The dinner finally came to a close with 210 Tildenites happy and satisfied, thankful that they had work- ed hard for the honors which were bestowed upon them at this annual event.

CHORAL CLUBS Under the direction of Mrs. Swanstrom the Choral club again took second place this year in the annual choral contest held at Harrison High School. In the past years, second place is the low- est that Tilden has ever finished. The choral group is made up of boys in the fourth and sevenh period choral groups. This group has achieved these honors by practice, patience, and hard work on the part of every one in the group and nothing else but. The boys who make up this group are chosen from the student body, most of whom have had no musical experience, how- ever, this semester fourteen boys belong to church choirs. Miss Mullen Works hard to perfect voices in her chorus and promote them to the contest group each semester. The officers of these two choral groups are Robert lohnson, Albert Frey, Leonad Chekirdc, Robert Charvat, Bob Henning, Frank Maratea, Clayton La Force, Frank Lemke, Bill Hackbrath, and Edward Mc Cree, while the soloists are Eugene Tomczyk, Tom Davis, Edward Lazo, George De Roule, Harry Wickert, Richard Morris, Ervin Schmidt, and Iesse Garcia.

Of the many branches of the guard system here at Tilden, the office guards are the most exclusive. For before a student can be even considered for the position, he must rate high in scholarship and character. , An office guard's duties are many and varied. In the course of a day's work he may direct visie tors about the building, carry special bulletins to classes, or lend his assistance wherever and whenever it is needed. If you have ever entered our portals of know- ledge a minute late or one of your classes just after the bell has rung, you most likely have been given a make-up slip. This entitles you to meet one of the fifty attendance guards one-half hour earlier in the morning. These guards. who help- ed to frame you, as you call it, into making up lost time in 104 are in reality a fine group of fellows who help maintain the much recommend- ed virtue of punctuality.

I want to tell you fellows all about your town, the biggest little town inthe good old U. S. A. Tilden Town, as you all know, is the home of hun- dreds, nay, thousands of loyal Tildenites - Alma Mater of engineers, soldiers, athletes, mechanics, aviators, chemists, sailors, industrial technicians, and leaders in fields of endeavor. Yes ,... Tilden has produced . real he-men! As you mates gaze at the pages of this Craftsman, look well, and you will see Americas's future citizens. Pictured in the Craftsman are bank presidents and corp- oration executives, generals and admirals, engineers and professors, and who knows, maybe our future pres- ident, too! But all of them are men! You high and mighty seniors who are leaving Til- den Town, remember ,... Tilden has given you its all: now it's your turn to go into the world and bring glory and fame to Tilden. As for you citizens of Tilden who will remain, mark well these words - study hard, pre- pare yourself, and plan your future, for you, too, will soon be cast upon the world to steer your own course.

Baksin- The dropping of five of the eight league games tells the plight of our senior basketball team this year, but when looked and thought over care- fully it is seen that it was an impossibility to build even a contending championship team with only one letterman returning, Bill Munno. So we should take off our hats to Mr. William Postl, new basket- ball coach, and the rest of the fellows for doing the best that they could under the circumstances. The unofficial opening of the basketball season opened at the annual Stagg Tourney where a combination of our lunior and Senior teams up- held the Tilden colors to the quarter-finals, when Marshall, Iunior City Champions, upset the Blue and Gold 42-40 in one of the hottest games ever witnessed. Later with the start of he offical season the heavies seesawed back and forth, first winning then losing, as can be seen by the tab- ulated scores, until the last three games which the lost due much to the loss of veteran Kaatnich, who was lost in mid-season graduation. Now with basketball over till next year, Coach Postl will have to develop a new team out of Munno, Salvage, Schlaffer, Marosits, and Markus who is coming from the lights, The rest - Claussen, Barbaric, Evers, Boike, Beauchamp, Grambauer, and Wind- all good men, are grad- uating. A coach's dream - the 1942 Iunior Basketball team. A team with a fast break, cooperation on the part of the fellows, and no men lost by grad- uation. With such bright prospects ahead the ponies naturally swept through all opposition un- til they met Marshall, present city champ, in the finals and lost a heart-wrending game by four points - Score 28-24. In the pre-season games, the junior quintette showed its superiority by downing Hirsch, Von Stueben, Englewood, South Shore, and Calumet respectively, and losing to loliet at their gym by only one point - 36-35. Then followed victory upon victory: from Gage Park to Parker, with the team keeping an unbeatable forty-five point average to its opponents' twenty during the en- tire season. As time slipped by, Perky Perkovich proved to be a swell bucket dropper because he was second highest scorer in the city with 364 points. Baba Burke, spark of the team, was considered as an all'city guard, with Perky all-city for- ward. Sammy Boy Vinci, Smackey Smaciarz, Markus, Verto and the rest of the team who had their fingers in the pie also deserve plenty of credit for upholding the Tilden tradition of putting up an all out effort.

Track, wrestling, volleyball, and baseball were well represented by individuals and divis- ion rooms. They all were out to win top honors. Competition was keen, especially in track and wrestling. In the volleyball and baseball tournaments there was the same noticeable rivalry among the division rooms that existed in the basketball tournament. Winner of the track tournament was Stanley Bartkiewicz, of Miss Bemisderfer's division who carried in first place by placing the most points in all events. Second place honors were award- ed to Chuck Emerson, of Miss Simcox's division, and third place, went to Stanley Sramek, of Miss Helen Iohnsons division. Wrestling honors went to Litterio who triumphed over all opposition that came along. Litterio earned the most num- ber of points in his class thus making him un- disputable champion. Championship volleyball and baseball honors were awarded to Miss Uling's division which won both titles. Withal, intramural sports, after being discontinued in 1936, were welcomed wholeheartedly by the stu- dents and they were cr success with benifits for ces. The Army, Navy, and Marine forces must possess strength - strength enough to combat the enemy with aggressiveness and effective- ness - strength enough to win a hard-fought war. That is why our gym department is carrying on intensive training and drilling in calisthenics and in the fundamentals of soldiering. That is why intramural sports were encouraged to further attain the goal of strong, quick-witted men. Champions of the basketball tournament were a fast and aggressive senior class team. This team was extracted and combined from Mr. Col- lins' division. Altho they seemed almost sure to win without much opposition, a scrappy soph- omore eam which hailed from Miss Eeitz's divis- ion put a scare into the hearts of the invincible seniors. Even with an advantage of height, which is a prime factor in winning basketball games and the advantage of more experience, the seniors could not overwhelm the sopomore five as the did previous opposition. The sophs fought hard thruout the entire title game. Third place honors were awarded to Miss Moran's division. Last place went to the freshies of Mr. Sauer's division, who played good ball but not good enough to win higher honors. everyone. IUNIORS Row 1 -- Kelley, Giertych, Dahl- berg, Graf. Row 1 -- Pokusu.

UNDERGRAD CHAMPS ELECTRIC AND RADIO With the combination of Mr. Timme and Mr. Haskell, electric shop teachers, the fundamentals of electricity are taught to all Tech students who are interested in electrical work. Some of the dif- ferent jobs that are done in shop are the repairing of light sockets, transformers, and various switch- take care of stage lights under the supervision of Mr. Haskell. Probably one of the most popular and best equipped shops here in Tilden is the Radio shop, headed by Mr. Rennie. In this shop, wiring and construction are taught by theory and actual practice. Advanced students studying and experi- menting with radio. may someday produce some new discovery in radio. The superior work turned out by techmen is comparable to that of the skilled technician.

MAR ff 3521! 'hung I-ICDBBY SI-ICDW Every day hobbies are growing in popularity with the na- tion's populace: everybody, from the boy in knee pants to the graying grandfather, is adopting one. To busy people a hobby offers a Welcome reprieve from the daily grind, to others it is a form of education, but to everyone it a highly enjoyable way to spend our minutes of relaxation. HCDBBIES, HOBBIES BIG, CDD, I-IUMOBOUS Representing every imaginable hobby from philatelism to the collecting of prehistoric Indian heads, Tilden's P,T.A. sponsored Hobby Show was received with the enthusiasm due a hobby exposition which has become so popular in recent years that it is regarded as a highly entertaining social event by residents of Chicago. The l942 Hobby Show, the seventh successive and successful show of this type, was held as usual in our large gym where much excellent workmanship was displayed. Among the vari- ous interesting hobbies, were a sword and gun collection, relics of a by-gone age: carvings in wood, both artistic and involved: detailed models ot American warshipsl a comprehensive match book collection: a stamp and coin exhibit with specimens from every shore washed by the seven seas: many intricate examples of Crocheting and also a very extensive collection of model air- planes. These included beautiful scale models of our enemies. The most unique collection was the Chinese Boy Scout exhibit which was corn- posed of beautiful examples of Chinese art and classic specimens of Chinese literature in the form of philosophical proverbs written in Chinese. Then came the grand finale, the presentation of the queen of the Hobby Show. The queen was selected from a host of glamorous contestants at the Tilden social center. After much deliberation on the choice of the queen by students who held the enviable positions of judges, the honor was bestowed upon a beautiful lassie from Engle- wood, Miss Ieanne Bergland. Miss Bergland was a vision of loveliness as she sat upon her throne which was bedecked with the gold and blue of Tilden and was continually surrounded by ad- miring Tildenites hoping to receive her autograph. Later in the evening an enjoyable vaudeville show was held in the small gym thus terminating another successful Tilden Hobby Show. The suc' cess of the show was due largely to the P.T.A. and faculty members who freely gave of their time and effort. TRACK Fourth Row: Coach Harvey, Barikiewicz, Donaldson, Weiss.

The first place was accomplished by making 30 points, and thus overstepping a very powerful Du Sable team who garnered 2715 points for a sure second place. Third place honors fell to Sullivan High which followed close to Du Sable with 24 points. Before Indoor City the Blue and Gold overswept all schools in the senior division in all dual meets. Results were as follows: Tilden 73-Senn 127 Til- den 65-Englewood 19: Tilden 30-Lindblom 29. Then in outdoor competition Tilden beat Lindblom 3615 to l31f2: and St. Ignatius CCatholic State Champsl 56 to 39.

In a so called review of the State meet or in other words Oak Park Relays, Tilden took fourth place with 21 power laden points. Later though, in State tryouts and qualifications, the school colors were splendidly upheld when Barthkie- wicz qualified in the hurdles, Grochwalski placed in the 440, Seskowski in the 880, and Siler placed in high jump. Downstate, though, only Grochowal- ski placed with a third in the quarter mile. WRESTLING How 4 - Golden. Miller, McArdle, Wray, Hard, Mieszkowski, Wiencek. Ciesrelski, Kemp. Szczepaniak.

By these stepping stones, the wrestling team en- joyed the most successful season in many years. It was a victorious year that saw the grapplers win twelve straight duel meets and retain their city championship.

This came as a result of a 34-6 victory over Calumet. Not content with a city title, the grapplers returned from the State Tournament in Champaign with second place. This is the highest a Chicago team has ever placed in this star-studded affair. Don Peterson was second in the heavyweight division, and Plaza, Blachley, and V. Mieszkowski took third places. Tilden's second place was unexpected as they were considered a dark horse. The grapplers in action. Cen- ter: Coach Hicks, leader of fifteen championship teams. In the City Individual Tournament the Tech grapplers captured six of ten possible championships. Title holders were: Martin 95 lbs, Captain Rob- inson 115, Blachley 135, Moskovitz 155, V. Mieszkowski 175, and Peterson, heavyweight. Plaza 105, Gilberto 135, and Ed Mieszkowski 175 took second places. Thus Tilden continued her monopoly on wrestling, limiting all other city schools to only four titles between them. Much of the credit for our successful season is due Coach Hicks. Only through his untiring efforts were we able to produce such outstanding material. The 1942 wrestling team has left a blazing path of glory behind them. They were unconquerable and proved their power throughout the state. They piled up 44lVz points to their opponent's scant 8215. Captain Bill Robinson 115 lbs. and five other varsity men will be lost due to graduation - Iohn Litterio, lack Blachley, Herb Moskovitz, Vic Miesz- kowski, and Don Peterson. ,-4 u 1 ,iv 'xi f ' 4 . . v- .JA ,1- 1 .y s y I H H. vp- z 7, '1 , 1 v' .ii fr I MW, 5 v X 74 1 ,., . v,.,l,x,1:. 5. -m f-'gf'-H z - ww, M., nd Q . gl, ' raw: '- 1:1 1 W- . f-7 . v ,Y fm . 9-- . .12 1 ,.5.

ANNUAL CIRCUS Tilden Tech's Twelfth Annual Circus and Homecoming - only event of its sort ever to be held annually by any high school in the city. Homecoming night at Tilden is a memorable occasion. Alumni of Tilden flock in by the thousands to visit and revel with their former classmates and teachers. It is an event eagerly a- waited by all, and you who are now graduating will someday too be joyfully lookink forward Homecoming Night at Tilden. FUN, FCDOLISHNESS, EXCITEMENT Glaring lights, hilarious voices, the tramp of feet, the high monotonous call of the Venders sell- ing their wares, filtering though the hoarse shouts of the barkers-Yes, it's Circus Night at Tilden, a night of festivity, music, laughter, and loads of fun! Thousands of smiling, happy fun-makers elbow their way down the halls of the massive fun house, cares and worries forgotten in the soothinq atmosphere of good fellowship. Dormant friendships are awakened, old men grow young, gaiety reigns, the very air tingles with the enchanting spell of a circus. Like hoards of ants, the merrymakers flood the rooms and corridors, their incoherent chattering intermingling with the hubbub of babbling voices. Thousands of faces move slowly on: like straws on a river they float past and disappear among a hundred bobbing heads. The vivid splashes of color, fantastic designs, and brillant splendor of countless lights are strangely reminiscent of the 'big tops illustrious splendor of old. In the assembly hall a musical is being presented: the majestic curtain slowly parts revealing a giant cast of young singers and dancers. Stillness reigns over the vast audience: high melodious voices penetrated the quietude supplemented by the soft notes of the chorus. All too soon the giant curtain swings shut, and the people file up the aisles humming their favor- ite tunes quietly to themselves. But wait, hear those screams of anguish, the blood curdling shriek of a doomed man, the feeble call of the dying! Well, relax. It's merely one of Tilden's horror shows stimulating the un- wary victim's heart action into an all time high. But most fun-makers find Tilden's spacious swim- ing pool one of the evening's highlights in enter- tainment, where a variety of crazy antics never fail to captivate the observer's fancy. At last the great carnival draws to a close: everyone has frolicked deep into the night, and is reluctantly preparing to take his leave. The faces, the songs, are soon forgotton, but the memory will linger on. 17'-' CHINESE CLUB Row 3 Gin. C. Lee, Cheung, F. Tay. Lim, Chin. Row 2 S. Fay, Paug, I. Moy. Young, R, Moy, K. Lowe. How I C.

It is composed entirely of Chinese boys attending Tilden and is run as most of our notable clubs, by parliamentary law. It has its president, secretary, and treasurer. This organization is led by a capable young man, Robert Moy,who also is one of our most co- operative workers on the Craftsman staff in the composing room. The officers of secretary and treasurer are satisfactorily filled, respectively, by Gerald Lee and William Lee. The energy and enthusiasm displayed by the officers, sponsor, and club members is responsible for making this one of the popular and influential clubs in Tilden The main purpose of the organization is to en- courage good fellowship among the Chinese and to convey the feeling of good fellowship to other students of Tilden. A most recent and successful achievement of the club was the show at the Circus. The display itself was filled with the glamor,mystery. and atmosphere of China. The rhythm of the weird and strange Chinese instruments intensified the feeling of the far East. The mystery and magic. which was provided by Peter Woo, mystified eve- ryone who saw his act. His very encouraging lec- ture about learning the Chinese language easily was a marvel to everyone, The patriotic portion of the exhibit was provided by the Chinese Boy Scout Drum and Bugle Corps. The most spectac- ular act of the show was the colorful dragon dance. This unusal display must have been good, for people packed the doors to see it and praised it when they came out. It contributed generously to the school fund. These boys also sold various interesting novelties made in China, such as back scratchers, paper snakes, and other trinkets to boost their earnings, part of which went to the Tilden Circus treasury and part to Chinese Relief. All the members of the club are helping and en- couraging the Chinese Relief Fund. BCDWLING- Once again the Tilden bowlers have rolled themselves into a prominent position among com- peting high school teams. As far as Tilden Tech's achievements in this highly competitive field, its record speaks for itself, Tildenites won the world's championship in 1938. This year we took an enviable fourth place. We are holders of these high scores: Harvey Wayne's average is 1781 Ozzie Grigalunas, 166: Howard Cairns stands third with 1612 Tom Davis boasts 151: Mr. Raymer, the man who originated the bowling plan for high schools bowls a very good 226. At the present time Tilden students are gradually recuperating from the excessive strain laid upon them by the first completed Tilden sweepstakes. There was some very interesting and quite amusing examples of what to do and what not to do on a bowling alley. The tournament took place under the unfailing jurisdiction of a very exacting elec- tric eye. The lucky young man who managed to procure the much sought after title of champ- ion was Bob Kennedy whose grand total was 606.

One of our country's foremost necessities in its present crisis is the crucial need for well trained men in the fields of designing and drafting. Til- den's drawing department has the experience, the materials and the backbone to produce just such men. Our mechanical drawing instructors are highly ART MECHANICAL DRAWING trained men in their fields, capable of producing efficient draftsmen and engineers- This depart- ment, headed by Mr. Post, works on a specially adapted modern basis, and is supplied with the very latest in drafting equipment. Under Tilden's famed four year architectual course, students receive every fundamental step necessary to the development of their architectual abilities. Tilden also has one of the most advanced art depart- ments in the city. Headed by Miss Bohman and Miss Porterfield, it has trained and developed many prominent artists of today, and is quite qua- lified to produce the modern designer and artist of tomorrow.

What stirs a losing team to victory? It's a band of course - Tilden's band. Resplendent in their snappy blue and gold braided uniforms, they proudly go parading down the field bestow- ing cheertulness wherever they go. Under brilliant leadership this band has acqui- red a record long to be remembered and admired, The perseverance of its members to make it what it is today is a highlight which demands note. Also of commendation is the fact that their loyalty in attending every football game and major sport event through both fair and foul- weather was unfailing. The solemn strains of the Star Spangled Banner presented by our band is truly an in- spiring occasion. In lighter vein, during the pep assemblies they gleefully play The Band Played On . In trying times such as these, public morale '54-u...,, ...MN-uk-W ND and spirit is kept high by the rendition of good music. For more than a half-score years the band flourished under the capable leadership of the popular, well-known Capt. Howard Stube. Earlier during the year after the announcement that he would leave, it was with regret that the band members bade him farewell. Although he is gone the memories of Capt. Stube will long linger in the hearts of Tildenites. Succeeding him as director came Mr. Carl Linner. At the piano he is a remarkable virtuoso, as can well be verified by anyone in the region of the band room, During the short time he has been at Tilden, Mr Linner has become well liked and respected by the boys in the band. www BAND MEMBERS Trombone: Parker, Peterson, Lezark, Coyle.

SUR V EYOR'S CLUB A certain number of boys at Tilden are known to have a fondness for mathematics and to de- vote much time to outside field work. These boys. all of 2A or higher, compose the Surveyor's Club. Courses in preliminary instruction are given in the classroom and problems that have been met in outdoor work are solved on the black- board and plotted on the student's drafting boards. In conclusion, members of the club learn the uses of various instruments and equipment. They learn the routine of transit work and levelling, how to reduce notes, and ways of making vari- ous maps. Because of the training received while at Til- den, many former members of the Surveyor's Club have obtained employment with practising engineers and have found themselves an enjoy- able profession for later life. This organization is guided under the watch- ful eye of Mr. I. O. Groves.

The Seals' first attempt in crushing opposition proved to be disastrous - for them- when they lost to Morton, but the defeat only stimulated the mermen and they drenched every opponent after that -16 in all. In April the Tech splashmen entered the city meet and after the last drop had dried, the results were read and both Tilden teams had taken second place, Among the junior sharks who plac- ed were Arnold, Mowen, Walters, Fleck, Dayner, W. Widmont, Skelly, and O. Brown. The senior seals who placed were A, Widmont, Monfort, and Hellmer. Four splashers on each team individually earn- ed 100 points in dual competition. The seniors were A.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY I pledge myself to uphold the high purpose of the National Honor Society to which I have been elected, striving in every way, by word and deed, to make its ideals the ideals of my school and of my life. In a solemn and impressive ceromony held a few days before graduation, twenty'five high- ranking seniors of Tilden took that pledge and were initiated into the National Honor Society. Thus they became life-time members of a society of high-ranking high school students from the en- tire nation. Since only the upper eight per-cent of each graduating class is elected into the soci- ety it the is most select organization in the school. Often these boys are also the leaders in their class. The Tilden chapter of the National Honor Soci- ety received its charter in 1929 and its present sponsor, Miss Lawler, took over in 1932. Since that time the organization has made its ideals, namely scholarship, service, leadership, and character the ideals of its members and the school. Since Tilden is so large and there are so many other time-consuming extra curricular activities, the National Honor Society is just an honorary organization and is not required to perform any service to the school. The meetings of the group, held before school once a week, are presided over by Robert Scharding, president: Paul Brown, secretary: and William Kneen, treasurer. To be a member of the National Honor Society is the goal of every ambitious Honor Club mem- ber-it is indeed an honor to be coveted! LQ. l 3 3... ABOVE Row 5 King, Prack.

By defeating Lindblom, last year's close runner-ups for the city title, by a score of 7M to 415 the team showed its power. Up to the present time the team is undefeated and shows all possibility of staying that way. This is Mr. Hotchkin's first year as coach and he's a hum-dinger. Of the players, Captain Tom Davis has probably the best record. In three years playing as the N02 and No.1 man, he has won 28 points while losing only 2. Others who made of the team were Tom Milaskey, Bernie Galenski, Roman Radziwon, Manager Al Nemoff, and Tom Wrigglesworth. With the aid of assistant manager, Iames And- erson and sponsor, Mr. Collins, our Tilden Chess team, although not winning a championship, de- feated last year's champions from Sullivan High School. These inte1lectuals have spent many joyous afternoons competing with one another so that a team could be developed for future com- petition. A club whose ideas and activities run parallel to those of the Chess Club is the Checker Club It has had intra-mural games after school in order to determine the outstanding checker players, who in time compete with champs of other high schools. The current year's success is due to the sponsor, Miss Uling: Stephen Sipiora, President? and Iohn Radosevich, Vice-President. l l ORCHESTRA MEMBERS First Violin: Kesilis, Costel. Zasadzinski.

Case- who conducts a well organiz- ed and thorough rehearsal every day during the third period. Mr. Morris Gomberg, our former instructor, much to the regret of the students, has been transferred to a North side school. But even this unpredictible change failed to alter the qual- ity or the quantity of their music- Instead, that old traditional Tilden loyalty blossomed forth in its full splendor, inspiring them into cr long suc- cessful season. In the beginner's class, the future maestro's earnestly strive to master their instruments under the competent supervision of their instructor. These fellows will presently be selected to fill STRA graduating members' places, serving as the foun- dation of a future concert orchestra. In them is instilled one of man's greatest and most valuable sources of enjoyment - a thorough knowledge of music. Fellows priviliged to join a beginners' class, use their own choice in selecting an instru- ment and uncller the skillful direction of their lead- er, the beginners soon become proficient music- ians, adept in performing the functions of a well organized orchestra. Among the most prominent members of the concrt orchestra are Stanley Hesilis, concert violi- nist, and Henry Buyer, cellist, student conductor and librarian, of whom Tilden is justly proud.

Victory again for the R.O.T.C.! Tilden is indeed proud of her strong stalwart sons, who in 1936, 1938, 1939, 1941, and 1942 brought honor to her name by winning top honors in the Federal Inspec tion. To Sergeant Michael I. Moore, our compli- ments and our thanks! No other school has such a record as Tilden's R.O.T.C- From the seven competitions this crack unit has come home with the first place five times- Last year Tilden was rated first in the entire sixth corps area, which includes Illinois- Michigan, and Wisconsin. The Tech picked platoons have taken first place for the last four years in the annual Picked Platoon Competition. Every year when school opens, Tilden's RO-- T. C- swings into action. Long hours of rigid dis' cipline, strenuous drill, and rigorous study of military theory continue throughout the year. It is no wonder then that Sgt.

OFFICERS An enviable reward for faithful and earnest service in the R. O- T. C. is an officer's commis- sion. In Tilden's regiment there are thirty-eight officers, including Cdt. Lieutenant Colonel Meade Hanger, the Regimental Commander. However, the non-commissioned officers are the backbone of any military unit- They re- ceive their orders frorn the officers, but directly control the privates. At Tilden we have a special school between 7:15 and 8:00 which all Non- Comms. not engaged in other R- O. T. C. act- ivities, are required to attend. About ninety turn out each morning for this school to receive in- structions. it Eff? - -L Also in Tilden's R.O.T.C. unit there are a num- ber of subdivisions which the cadets can join- for instance, the Military Police- This is an organiza- tion for the protection of all the students in Tilden Tech and is divided into eight posts, each with an individual commander. In addition there are the ushers who serve at all assemblies and any extra occasions. The fire guards, also, are important. They watch for fire hazards and clear out the building as soon possible during a fire drill. They are also in charge of air raids. Another group des- erving attention is the Rifle Team which placed twentieth in the entire 6th corps area and eleventh in the city. The men firing receive a special T letter award.

Be-vryhlll llllith bugles blaring, drums throbbing, and bodies ligthly swaying in perfect unison to the rhythmic beat of marching feet, Tilden's own Drum and Bugle Corps swings into action. And here they come, the red cheeked buglers blasting merrily on their horns, supplemented by the muffled beats of the drums . The long even columns swing by in a steady even stream of khaki clad lads and shining instruments - Ti1den's pride and joy. DRUM AND BUGLE CORPS One of the R- O. T. C.'s proudest units is its high spirited, dashing Drum and Bugle Corps. This col- orful section of the B. O. T. C- originated in the spring of 1938, when Major Iohn H. Binge, Adj- utant of Chicago Public High School H. O- T. C. Units, and Tech. Sgt. Michael I. Moore, Military instructor at Tilden, discussed the possibility of sponsoring a Drum and Bugle Corps right here in Tilden. In May, Dr. Charles I. Lunak, Tilden Principal, was consulted, and approved the idea of making the Corps a part of the R. O. T. C. Their attention was then directed toward securing Stanley M. Pinski, director of several outstanding Iunior Corps in the city, as the instructor for the new unit. Under Mr. Pinski, the forty-five in- experienced boys who enrolled in the new unit in September 1938, were transformed into a well equipped modern Drum and Bugle Corps. They made their first public appearance on Nov. 9th, 1938, at a P. T. A. Dinner. Since then, the unit has maintained a steady growth in members and reputation. Every year the Corps plays at the Annual Stock Show, Medal Assembly, Arm- istice Day Parade, Memorial Day Parade. Cadet Day Parade and Federal Inspection. Yes, Tilden can well be proud of the enduring efforts these boys have put forth to build up an outstanding record for themselves in competitive exhibitions with other schools. Their continued growth and future prominence is definitely assured, under the capable leadership of Mr. Pinski and Sgt. Moore. , l lit wil l lt lt l t l. 1M.!,..ll'Llf' , l ijt 1 , ,, ,I was 2, ' 'liz ,, lit git?

RADIO AND DISCUSSICDN GRGUPS In order to promote increased activity in the interesting subject of radio, a little known but nevertheless important organization here at Tilden is boosting the reputation of our school by their fine dramatic acting. These fellows are displaying their talent thru the greatest medium of commu- nication, the radio. This group, under the spon- sorship of Mrs. Pearce. entered The Boys' Radio Guild Competition with a play which was direc- ted and acted by students selected for their natur- al acting ability. ln the prelirninaries of the com- petition at the Hayes Hotel, the group competing with fifteen other Southside high schools made an excellent broadcast. Some of these amateur radio actors were accepted into the all-star group be- cause of their unusual ability. On April 9th, four students, Ernest Klimczak, Harry Angus, Guy Sweetland, and Gordon Wood. represented Tilden, in competition with eighteen other schools, in a round table discussion at the University of Chicago. The discussion, dealing with the post war world, was held under the auspices of the University Discussion Group. After the first round which dealt with the fail- ure of the Versailles Treaty, a luncheon was served to the contestants, after which talks were given by one student from each school. Ernest Klimczak, chosen of the Tilden group, did very Well in his allotted three minutes and was widely applauded. At the end of the second round, five students were chosen to participate in the final round and five others were given honorable mention. One of those who received honorable mention was Gordon Wood of Mrs. Marston's division. To Mrs. Pearce goes the credit for the excellent Coaching afforded this group.

Their record for the season was not very encouraging. Several reasons contributed to their just fair showing. But only one stands out as the main reason. The loss of a whole team can easily dim any hopes for championship laurels. But this is just what happened to the baseball team. All players of last year's first string graduated. leaving a totally inexperienced team to take over duties. Our baseball team is not the worst in the cen- tral section this year by a long shot, but when compared with other sports achievements it can- not be placed alongside our great teams. A central section championship was the least honor a Tilden team garnered. The baseball team unfortunately could not reach this goal and they thus marred an unbeatable record. Due to the apparent shortage left by graduated baseballers last year, this year's baseball team was more or less made up of boys who played son, Lefitzen, Callahan, Yamich. ki. Munns. on other teams. One instance is little Iohnny Perkovich who took over the pitching chores. Iohnny played with the runner-up junior basket- ball team and now is doing a good job of pitch- ing the apple to opposing batters. Another such instance is Frank Salvage of the senior basketeers who has won distinction of being the team slug- ger. And still another is Eddie Uvodich, star half- back of the football team, who is playing a mighty neat game in the infield at second base. Other players on the team are Frank Munno, first base, Forest Beauchamp, third base, who inci- dently are former senior hoopers, also Vic Miesz- kowski catcher, and Ioe Hizza, right field, of the football team. Those who haven't been on other teams are as follows: Leonard Wojiwocki, third base, an outstanding fielder and a pretty fair batter: Roman Radziwon center field, another good man? and Bill Zanos, catcher, who alternat- ed with Vic Mieszlrowski. The pitching staff con- sisted of four. Perkovich was already mention- ed. The other three were Robert Vrdsky, a good effective southpaw, Francis Calahan, and Dick Iones who were equally effective. 154' 'W 4' UZ!

And here are the fellows responsible for this yearbook. For a half year they have worn pencil and brain to frazzles, because behind these 176 pages lies work, work, and more work. It's been a rush job all the way. There was a late start: the designing, redesigning and re-redesigning of the book took twice its alloted time: there was color, which added to the woes of the print shop: late photogaphs and the subsequent late engrav- ings didn't help any, and when the copy started disappearing between the editorial room and the print shop, that was just about all Mrs. Aldrich and company could stand. But sooner or later fmostly laterl things started straightening out and the result was this beautiful, sparkling, lively- colorful Craftsman-fnot bragging, you un- derstandl. Evetryone connected wifh the book did his best towards making it a success, and sev- eral individuals, especially the sponsors and Mr. McCurry and Mr. Geason, deserve a hand for giving so much of their time and energy to make this THE CRAFTSMAN.

YAMICH PETE YERSAVICH ALFRED ZIMENTSTARK SENIGB PROPHECY lf, in the near future, you turn on your tele- vision set you may hear the following program emerge from the ether: Good evening, Ladies and Gentemen, this is your Town Tattler, Larry O Keefe, bringing to you news of your neighborhood Chicagoans. I hear that Harry Ansel, the great screen lover, is traveling around the Windy City's hot spots with his current leading lady. It's his third ro- mance of the month- . The World's Champion football team has just lost its first football game in ten years. The vic- torious team's scoring parade was led by Ed Uvodich and Ioe Bartkieotcy. The champion's co- captain, Tom Hard, and Vic Mieskowski are heartbroken. Last Friday night Don Petersen defeated Ioe Louis by a T. K.O. in the second round. He broke Ioe's victory streak at 1,343. Paul Brown is coming to town to select a site for his new morning newspaper. He will compete with Bob Knapp because the latter now controls all news in the city. Ernie Klimczak is the new president of the House of David. He received this distinction be- cause of the length of his beard and moustache. Light-weight wrestling champ, Red Robinson, will say I do next month. It is rumored that he will leave the mat soon after, because there will be enough battles at home. Police Commissioner Iohn Bogotto is invest- igating the Biedermann, Karstrad, and Nicholas Loaded Dice Co. Iohnnie lost everything but the buttons off his dress uniform. Another who lost heavily in this game is Charles Van Horn, the millionaire gambler, but he doesn't worry over a few thousand dollars. Bob Ashton, president of the Clicky Pencil Co.. invented a new pencil that writes by remote con- trol. You can do your homework while lying in bed thinking about it. Len Biede'rman's really a jerk: He'll dance and crack jokes but won't work. You can tell at one look He can't stick with a book. Wallace, he majors in lunch, Likes steaks, and strawberry punch. This chubby young guy Dotes on ice cream and pie- And eats between meals, we've a hunch What a swimmer is this Moniort lad! For his prowess in aqua we're glad. But one fault ol his looms - The ice cream he consumes He was born with a iool's cap and smirk. Ernie Klimczak. he sure shoots the bunk He jabbers as tho he were drunk. His little moustache Can' filter the trash About the fifty U- boats that he sunk. Could sink the Queen Mary and that's bad. As an artist Iohn Stribrny's O.K. His drawings will pass any day. When he' starts drawing women. You will drool till you're swimmin.. Watch out Petty, Iohn's coming your way. 9' NVQ' FE- ... x..,, J' L ylqxl Ji iq. ,,a'-l' N 4-, ' Du' L 1f,, - ,,.a1'l' 5, f P . t es, s as A Q . N.: - ' N -- 1 .

Boogie woogie artist La Vine Digs boogie at most any time. The three B's he plays Till he's in a daze- When he's jivin, it's truly cublime. Wolf Larry O' Keefe on the loose Is dangerous: he needs a noose To keep him in check So he won't try to neck. He's beyond hope. this girl crazy swoose. Ioe La Vine, famed band leader, is returning to Chicago to attend a premiere of his new picture, Death of Boogie Woogie. Wally Smolka has been married for ten years. He is the only '42 graduate now married less than three times. Gen. Meade Hanger is the head of the Army Signal Corps. He claims this distinction because of his electrical genius--it's shocking. Bill Saunders, well to-do ployboy, was sued by another night club for damages. He was swing- ing on a chandelier when the guests threw shoes at him. A few of them went through the windows. Art Williams, the curly-haired pretty boy of the films, will soon co-star with Iohn Mertz in a film written by Ioe Gonski of the life of a high school senior. Ieff Barnes has been elected mayor of Lonely- berger, Montana. The population of the town is one-I. Barnes, Esq. Flying officers, Ross Boyd and Iim Hickey, have two assistants to hold up their left shoulders. They are weighed down with decorations. Iohn Kleinow and Bob Pifer were awarded an- other plaque for the champion amateur drum and bugle corps. Woods on a date with a skirt ls an irrepressible flirt. He says that he,s shy. But we know it's a lie: He's just a naive little squirt. Scharding, the guy with the scolarly look. Is usually found with his nose in a book. Einstein's best friend - He has brains no end. For a sucker he'l1 never be took. Zimentstark's a genius no doubt? When things go wrong he doesn't pout. He sits down to think: His brain's in the pink. There's nothing he can't figure out. Vince DeTolve, ace camera man of Hornacek Studios, is starting on a new picture with Ernie Hellmer and Herb Hesse entitled They Died With Their Water-Wings On. Gauger's Beauty Salon is catering exclusively to Mrs. Bill Robinson and Mrs. Richard Petricek. Iulian Iohnson has just discovered a new chem- ical called Iohnsonite. It will be used to keep sleepy Techmen awake in Civics classes. Milton Cuttle and Angelo Biondo are collab- orating on a new history book. The age old Bored of Education, Open all Night, and ln Case Of Fire, Throw This In First will be already printed inside the covers. This will save school boys the trouble of writing it in. Roman Radziwon paired with Sam Snead beat Tom Davis and Ben Hogan in a relief match yes- terday. It was the first time Tom or Roman broke 100. Ken Woods is constructing a new Empire State Bldg. It is to be named after his teacher, Mr. Lurie. The management hereby announces that any resemblance between persons herein mentioned and persons living or dead is purely intentional.
