' ' -Puri 'vi 1 Tomah High School Song Let other high schools boast Of victories galore, Of laurels never lost And triumphs by the score, Let them tell you of 'their prowess, Of their warriors strong and bold, Whose colors ever lower to the White and the Gold. Our men are all victorious In all the states around, In basket-ball and football They always win renown, Though we're proud of all Wisconsin Whose fame in story's told, Yet our hearts 're with Tomah High School And the dear old White and Gold. To the hill where stands the high school When the years are past and gone, When as schoolmates we have parted And our lessons all are done, We'll return and show our comrades We're as loyal as of old, And cheer them on to victory 'Neath the dear old White and Gold.

The Superintendenfs Wish 1 4 NE of the most valuable offerings in high school is the opportunity to acquire sincere and lasting friendships. One whose temperament per- mits the intimacies of pals', and whose friendships are easily maintained i possesses characteristics which hold him companion to true happiness. 4 Success in life's endeavors is the cherished wish of every graduate. But true success cannot be acquired without friendships and friendships are the treasured possession of only those Whose characters possess elements of generosity, kindness, smypathy, sincerity, and breadth of vision. May the friendships formed in Tomah High School continue for the seniors of 1929. May memory keep fresh and distinct the pleasant associations of the' years just past. My sincere wish is that the friendships of youth maintain them- selves in the midst of the busy life to follow. ' r 1 I Xv', Xvf N'v'!

Ah, there you have the worst paid, and the best rewarded, of all the vocations. Dare not enter it unless you love it. For the vast majority of men and women it has no prom- ise of wealth or fame, but they to whom it is dear for its own sake are among the nobility of mankind. I sing the praise of the unknown teacher. , Great generals win cam- paigns, but it is the unknown soldier who wins the war. Famous educators plan new systems of pedagogy, but it is the un- known teacher who delivers and guides the young. He lives in obscurity and contends with hardship. For him no trumpets blare, no chariots wait, no golden decorations are decreed. He keeps the watch along the borders of darkness and makes the attack on the trenches of ignorance and folly. Patient in his daily duty, he strives to conquer the evil powers which are the enemies of youth. He awakens sleeping spirits. He quick- ens the indolent, encourages the eager, and steadies the unstable. He communicates his own joy in learning and shares with boys and girls the best treasures of his mind. He lights many candles which, in later years, will shine back to cheer him. This is his reward. Knowledge may be gained from books, but the love of knowledge is transmitted only by personal contact. No one has deserved better of the republic than the unknown teacher. No one is more worthy to be enrolled in a democratic aristocracy, king of himself and servant of mankind. -Henry Van Dyke U ,,, 'U' , 'I' Y 'I 'l ' , v lr1 Page 34 - . r V 1 W WT' lv - P...-.V --f .,- 135- r-V'-'-3 t ,. .W-Y.. .4 . ti, A k 'i A'T T I. 4,2 ' .

Loath they were to leave the streamlets Where the swift trout lurked in shadows And the forest dark and somber Where the red deer shyly roam. He with voice, now stern, now pleading, Bade them in his halls assemble, Learn the language of the white man Learn the customs of their brothers. So the tribe of Nineteen Thirty Gathered in the halls of learning, Gathered at the feet of sages Who should tell them of the secrets Tell them of the magic powers Which make sun and rain to serve them Which make slaves of gold and iron. s First they chose a chief to rule them, One, Kieth Bennett, lithe, and handsome, Who should guide them with his counsel Who should lead them into battle. Sturdy braves and strong of muscle, Rushed the football through the goal-posts. y Where once ruled the great chief Tomah, ltr ' VX A I 1 1 I ' i I llgl L, I Ill lol it L ll 1211, 111 mt'i.i: ll x y' , s, .

The helpers chosen to assist him in the management of the village were Dick Aller, Evelyn , Schroeder, and Dolores Reisenauer. Shortly after our village was made, it was announced that there was to be a great . - - l battle. The warriors who went from our village were Le Roy Hansen, Dick Aller, 5 George Lord, Harold Ziegler, and Bennett Potter. As a reward for bravery in battle Lester Tracy was awarded a T. Because of the winning of this battle we decided to have rejoicing and singing. The singers which were chosen were George Lord, Cecil Walcup, William Schmasow, Howard Skidmore, Ray Knick, john Bell, Dick Aller, Dorothy Franz, Evelyn Schroeder, Wilda Becker, Leona Kissinger, Rosella Comiskey, Dolores Reisenauer, Vera Hedding, 1 l l I I l l l JOHN DELL RICHARD AXLLER I'r'c.rii1'v1zt I'YlC6'PVHJl'4lL'Ilt ,, 3 I --...., .LLL ...L -L .,.,. - .Ax X I f ' ,' ,' ' ' T I' ,' - , v L xv! - MAL , Xv', xv- Ee - -wwf .LLM Page KO 2.5.5 MQ? .3 Fourth row: XV. llelforcl, ll.

The different tribes of the village decided to have an entertainment. Our Indian maiden and brave were John Bell and Evelyn Schroeder. Some months later another kind of battle was fought. This time the tribe sent out Le Roy Hansen, Dick Aller, George Lord, Forrest Rogge, Bennet Potter, Roy Oakes, and Howard Skidmore. Our speakers at the council meetings were Evelyn Schroeder, Wilda Becker, Edna Sowle, Raymond Knick.

Every class has a fair chance to win for no advantages are given. It has aroused greater enthusiasm and desire for scholarship, attend- ance, citizenship, and for participation in extra-curricular activities. The friendly rivalry which has arisen between classes shows that this smybol of citizenship has played a significant part in the life of the students. The contest is conducted by dividing the classes into two divisions, Juniors vs. Seniors, Freshman vs. Sophomores, then winner vs. winner. The contest for the school year ending June 1928 came out as follows: Seniors 8552 Sophomores 83.Sf'Qs Juniors 74.5ffQ, Freshmen 72fL The Seniors won in the Hrst group, and the sophomores in the second. NVhen the winners were matched it was learned that the seniors won with 8SfQ. iw Since the cup was won by the graduating class it is kept in che Main Room on display. The winning class has the honor of having its name engraved on the cup. The holder of the Citizenship cup is highly respected, for that class has given its best for the white and the gold, and has upheld the tradition of our own Tomah High School. l'iigc 43 I l l i L I i. l , -1 i 3 ,L i 5 ii i I! i, 3a 3 l 2 l 5 i i T E 5 1 3 1 l 5 1 . -1-f. ..,-2.1 f l L.

Tomah Chapter of the National Honor Society DUCATION consists of more than formal academic book learning. Part of the educational process is the discovering and developing of certain desirable qualities which are essential to a successful life. Since the establishment of the Tomah Chapter of the National Honor Society, in 1921, it has become the objective of the school to promote the development, in the life of every high school student, of four cardinal virtues which are: scholarship, leadership, character, and serv- ice.

It has been an aim of the department to discover journalistic ability. That it has succeeded in doing so is well illustrated by what Mr. N. F. Hein, editor- in-chief of Ripon College Days, writes of Miss Dorothy Crain, the 1927-1928 editor- in-chief of the Owl. He writes, Miss Crain's experience on The Owl has meant a lot to her, and I am not surprised when I make special note of your paper. It is one of the neatest, most well-written and made up high school papers that I receive. Miss Honish fthe present editor-in-chiefj may be justly proud of the publication. Tomah High School students have taken a keen interest in the publication. Its success lies in the fact that it has the support of the students and that it has an eflicient working staff. Much credit is due Miss Drowatzky for her earnest efforts in sponsor- ing The Owl. .3-if o vw I4 .

Under the able , direction of Miss Gray the girls have also learned something of the technique of music, ' i as well as an appreciation of better music.

Under the excellent leadership of our coach, work progressed rapidly. Each contestant prepared a five-minute speech on some phase of the question, and these were given before the assembly. Later trial debates were held and finally a series of try-out debates, from which the regular teams were chosen. Because of the excellent ability which was exhibited, and also. due to the number of contestants, the judges had difficulty in selecting the final teams. After the results were posted the teams began work in earnest. Regular meetings were held each weekg practice debates between the two teams were staged frequently. Much effort was put forth on the part of the debaters and Miss McAdams in order to have a winning team. The question for debate this year dealt with our present system of nominationg namely, as follows: Resolved: that the direct primary system of nomination for United States senators, United States representatives, and all state oiiicers, be abolished in Wisconsin.

Extemporaneous Reading and Speaking XTEMPORANEOUS Reading is an art which enables one to present interest- ingly to an audience any material one may chance to have to read, be it minutes of a meeting, a letter, a joke, a description, a play, a song. Extemporaneous Speaking is giving to an audience a concise, yet thorough, discussion of a current problem, with only time enough allowed, to organize the mate- rial. Topics are taken from the February, March, and April issues of American Review of Reviews, Literary Digest, and World's Work. One hour before the Contest, the pupil may draw five cards, choose a topic, and return four cards before the next con- testant chooses. He then must prepare without aid or material, a four minute speech on the topic chosen. Unusual interest was shown in each contest. In the first Extemporaneous Read- ing contest which was held on March 6, there were 42 Contestants. Those surviving the second contest held on March 19 were: JEANETTE SOWLE VICTOR REINHOLZ LUCILLE STRANDT LYDIA BERG In the final contest on April 11, those FRANCIS GERKE LORETTA RICE ELSIE CASSELS ELIZABETH BENNETT who received places and represented the school in further contests were: A LYDIA BERG All those interested JEANETTE SOWLE in Extemporaneous Speaking gave talks before the Assembly during the month of December. .

The net proceeds were exceptional. This money was used in the publication of the Hamot. No carnival would be complete without a King and Queen. The stu- dent body elected Jeanette Sowle as Lady Violetta and Leo Casper as Pompdebille VIII. Both Lady Violetta and Pompdebille VIII proved worthy of their positions. At the main show, the Knave of Hearts proved that he was not a knave after all. Cooks were busy, maids were busy, in fact everyone was busy preparing for the time when Lady Violetta would prove herself worthy of becoming the Queen of Hearts. The queen made the tarts but alas, they were stolen! Everyone blamed the knave, but he wasn't at fault at all. In fact, he saved the queen from banishment. The side shows were especially good. Those netting the best returns were the Kindergarten Bandf, Hades and the Bell Hop Chorus. Of course the ujitney Dancen was successful and every one had an enjoyable evening. The music was furnished by the Tomah Nite Hawks. And then the halls-they were all very attractively decorated and added to the spirit of this gala event. The junior decorations received first place, the Sophomores, second. ' 4 av J. ' V ' - - ---W -- un-gf . --A V-V-H+--W ---W . .. .... .., - --. .--.---L ., ...W '! ' ' fi .

The squad as a whole was quite light and inexperienced but as the season progressed several boys developed into good football players and got into most of the games. These fellows were Earl Clay, Edwin Zellmer, Edward Becker, James Knoblauch, Keith Bennett, Victor Rein- holz, Wilson Spangenberg, Edwin Fenske, Glenn Stoddard, Lester Tracy, and Le Roy Hansen. Others were out for practice each day and in the course of improvement, will be heard from later. Plays were introduced off punt formation, a formation offering splendid oppor- tunities for deception. A well-balanced running attack was developed with Curran and Tracy driving through the line and Spangenberg running the ends. This was coup- led with a deceptive passing attack in which Becker and Spang', tossed them to Fritz Rice, Elwin, Ed Zellmer and Jim Knoblauch, four receivers who could go up and pull them in. Good 'blocking in the line rounded out the attack and Tomah was ready for the first game. ALUMNI 0-T. H. S. 6 The Alumni game was one of the hardest of the season. The first half was score- less, but early in the third quarter a long pass to Knoblauch put the ball in scoring dis- tance and Curran took it across. Try-for-point by dropkick failed. The Grads, led by Eirshele and Sullivan, threatened in the fourth quarter but a fighting H. S. line held for downs after being driven back almost to the goal-line. MAUSTON 6-T. H. S. 12 The Mauston team furnished first-class opposition the following Friday. Tomah started the game without Capt. Curran, its all-around fullback, who had suffered a brok- en finger in practice. Becker and Spangenberg did some splendid 'ball-carrying and, with Rice and Knoblauch catching passes, two touchdowns were soon scored. Wright, Mauston's star halfback, got away in the second quarter for a spectacular 75 -yard dash for a touchdown. Mauston threatened again in the fourth quarter, so Curran was put in, effectively checking their offense and starting a Tomah drive for a third touch- down which was halted by the end of the game. Leo Gasper received an injury to his elbow that was to keep him on the bench the next four games. VIROQUA o--T. H. s. 26 Tomah won its first conference game from Viroqua here on October 7. The offense worked with more precision than in the previous games and prospects for a good team were evident. Becker hurled passes with deadly accuracy, resulting in long gains. An- other pleasing feature of the game, from our standpoint, was the kicking of Jim Knoblauch, who booted them high and far. Many fellows on the squad were given a chance to make good in this game. ' V - vvvv . vvvvv Page 67 RICHLAND CENTER 20-T. H. S. 12 Tomah lost the conference championship when it lost at Richland Center in a hard-fought game. Behind at the half 13 to 6 the team came back and decisively out- played the opponents, scoring once in the third quarter on a pass to Sowle and a line- plunge by Capt. Curran. Try-for-point was again missed so we were still behind 13 to 12. In the last quarter another march up the Held was started but came to an abrupt and disheartening end when a Richland Center player intercepted a Tomah pass and ran 75 yards for their last touchdown. A kickoff, a couple plays, and the game was over. REEDSBURG 12-T. H. S. 26 Tomah won its second conference game the following Saturday when it defeated the powerful Reedsburg eleven at Tomah. George and Spang were unstoppable and the whole team played good football to win out in the second half. Features of the game were Curran's defensive work and long runs by Larrabee and Spangenberg for touchdowns. SPARTA 12-T. H. S. 13 3 The football jinx that Sparta has had on Tomah for the last three years was fin-- ally broken when Sparta was defeated on their field 13 to 12. The first half was all Tomah's with the combination of Curran through the line, Spang around end and forward passes to the ends working like a charm. The half ended 13 to 0. Sparta came back lighting hard and by taking advantage of two breaks, a blocked punt and a fumble, scored two touchdowns. Both trys-for-point were blocked. Tomah missed a third touchdown by a foot when Knoblauch caught a ness and was tackled just short of the goal-line as the game ended with the score 13 to 12 in our favor. Tomah's players can look back on the game as one that was fairly won and well- deserved, as an ambition realized. LA CROSSE CENTRAL 20-T. H. S. 0 On November third Tomah went down to defeat at La Crosse Central. As far as football goes the game was one-sided and lacking in thrills, due to the fact that Tomah's team was about one-third as efficient as usual and also that La Crosse Central had a good team. Tomah lacked its mainspring on attack and defense, George Curran, who was unable to play because of an infected kneeg. this, along with injuries to Larrabee and Sowle during the game and frequent fumbles by Tomah, helped La Crosse win easily. One good feature of the game was the fact that several second-team men got a chance, and many, including every backfield man that played, will be back next year. X 'F' - - v'vvvv ' Page 68 5-. 3 MAME? ...:2-a.-fa LA CROSSE LOGAN 6-T. H. S. 7 One week later Tomah again played at La Crosse and this time showed some real football. Curran was back in the game and an entirely different team seemed to be on the field. ' Tomah scored in the first quarter when Kieth Bennett blocked a punt and Spang and George alternated in gaining yardage until George finally drove over the goal. jim Knoblauch place-kicked goal, and this proved to be the winning margin. Logan scored in the second quarter after a steady drive down the field but their try-for-point by a pass was broken up by Nick Becker and the half ended 7 to 6. is second half was very hard-fought with exceptionally clean play. Tomah tried repeatedly to score but always failed in the end to penetrate the Logan defense. At one time-Q llie ball was lost less than a yard from the goal. Neither team was able to score and the game ended 7 to 6. This victory closed Tomah's most successful football season in years with six games won and two lost and Tomah second place in the conference. The Logan game did not count as a conference game because Logan was admitted after the schedule had been made.

Basket-ball HE call for basket-ball came immediately after the close of the 1928 football season, although members of the football squad were given a weeks' rest. Alto- gether, Tomah's prospects seemed no better than mediocre. Don Henry, Tom Earle, and Connie Rice were lost through graduation. Captain Leo Gasper and Fritz Rice were back, and then also there was a lanky fellow who had appeared thc middle of the year before and had done some fine scoring, and who looked like a good man for the center berth. There was a large squad for Coach Olson to work with, but the quality did not appear to come up to the quantity. ALUMNI 21-TOMAH 15 just to see what he did have, Mr. Olson put his men up against the Alumni squad soon after the beginning of practice. The Alumni, seemingly able to hit the basket from any spot on the floor, swamped the inexperienced and unco-ordinated team from the High School, 21 to 15. Principally, the Tomah five was composed of Becker and Rice, forwards, jim Knoblauch, center, and Gasper and Sowle, guards. Rice was the only man able to hit the basket with anything approaching regularity, dropping in most of Tomalfs scores. ,ALUMNI 21-TOMAH 20 Attempting a come-back against their alumni, the Indians dropped another game. this time by only a one-point margin. The flu epidemic-or the numerous cases of grippe -made public gatherings undesirable. So, by order of the health ofiicer, this game was played behind locked doors. TOMAH 25-ALUMNI I5 Since no outside competitio.n could be brought in while the public was barred from the games, a third game in three consecutive weeks was played with the Alumni. Again the battle was fought in a silent gym, but this time Tomah found herself and walked off with a 25 to 15 victory. -- 'cg-rv--.-1 mf, 1 me-..f:r Nwymnn ,Q H.--v-gpm..-s-Qf-f..:.n-.-.f..T1:.yL mega- -isa--E .. 1:7:.:s,g-.nzvw .. . .., ,....- , ,.....,.

TOMAH 23-SPARTA 15 Christmas vacation cleared up the flu epidemic, and the evening of January 11 found the Tomah gym packed for the traditional clash with Sparta. By all the dope, Sparta should win. She had cleaned up Bangor, her own Alumni, and other minor teams, and had nearly nosed out La Crosse Central. Tomah had only a victory over her Alumni of which to boast. Yet Sparta went down before a furious scoring attack and found herself unable to score through the Indians' defense. It was a fast game, both sides playing well, and it showed to Tomah fans an entirely different team from the one which they had last seen against the Alumni. . TOMAH 13-LOGAN 12 A week after the Sparta game Tomah traveled to La Crosse for one of the most crucial games of the year. The Logan High team led through three quarters, with Tomah's defense not yet working in the masterful style in which it functioned in later games. During the fourth quarter ujumpin' Jim Knoblauch slipped in the basket which put Tomah in the lead. With a minute to play, Olson's boys put on a wonderful exhibition of stalling. Logan got a chance to score when Koepke was fouled, but he missed his free throw, and Tomah kept possession of the ball the rest of the game. TOMAH 23-BLACK RIVER FALLS 14 As Tomah had three weeks of rest ahead of her before she met the conference leaders, Baraboo, in her next conference game, three non-conference contests were scheduled for this period. The first of these was with Black River Falls at Tomah, the next Monday after the Logan game. The Indians were in a tie with Baraboo for first place by virtue of their Logan victory. The Black River team presented fast, scrappy opposition, but Tomah was traveling in perfect form. Her defense held Black River Falls to 14 points, while on offense she rang up 23 counters. TOMAH 19-BLACK RIVER FALLS 17 A week later Tomah played Black River Falls a return game on the Black River floor. Although a non-conference team, this team came the nearest to beating Tomah of all the teams she played this season. On a strange and smaller court, the Indians were crowded back by Black River Falls, forging ahead in the last quarter only to be dropped behind again when the smaller team sent a succession of wonderful long shots through the hoop. With forty-five seconds to play, Tomah was trailing by three points. Then, showing what they could do in the way of offense as well as on defense, the Indians took things into their own hands and made five points before that fraction of a minute expired, winning the game 19 to 17. This was a heartbreaker for Black River and a wonderful exhibition of reserve power on the part of Tomah. - 'X-.v Yv Xv Sf'EfXv Q Rf'xvf'Xv Page 71 ' HHTQEHCDFE ' TOMAH 37-FRIENDSHIP-ADAMS 17 The third non-conference game was on the Friday a week before the Baraboo game, and was played with the Friendship-Adams combination high school, on the Tomah floor. Although the visitors led at the end of the first half, -Iumpin' jim and Nick Becker ran wild in the second period, with five and six baskets each, and Tomah came through to her largest score of the season, winning 37 to 17. TOMAH 29-BARABOO 16 Baraboo, undefeated and with four victories to her credit, invaded the Indians' stronghold on February 8. A week 'before her three shining lights, Robinson, Licht, and Sceales, had played their last game, utterly swamping Reedsburg. But graduation had taken care of them so far as Tomah was concerned, and she had little trouble defeating the weakened Baraboo squad, 291 to 16. This was her second largest score of the year. Tomah now led the conference, but her position was a pre- carious one. Three successive games away from home, all with strong teams, must be won before her championship would be assured. TOMAH 13-SPARTA 9 On February 15 Tomah went to Sparta for the second game of the year with that school. Sparta's defeat a week before by Reedsburg had made a victory over Tomah necessary if she were to remain at all in the championship running. A victory over Sparta was equally necessary to To.mah's championship safety. - If the first Sparta game was exciting, there is no term for the second affair. Tomah played a perfect game, slow, cautious, fiercely defensive. Sparta found it im- possible to pierce this armor-plate defense, but her captain, Frey, did manage to shoot over it.three times in the first half, giving Sparta a 9 to 7 lead at the half. The second half Tomah played even more carefully than the first. Her defense was wonderful, and Sparta never scored a point. The score was finally tied at 9 all with four minutes to play and the gym in an uproar, with several hundred Tomah rooters vying with Spar- ta's crowd. A score here by either team practically meant victory. Sparta nearly got it once when Englebretson jumped for a short shot almost under the basket, only to have his attempt blocked by the tip of Gasper's hand. It was jim, taking the ball on a long pass directly beneath the Sparta basket, who tipped in the deciding score. Tomah immediately began stalling, and Sparta forgot her defense in her efforts to reach the C w if? D ' - - vr Xv 'X'tv iXv Xv Page 72 ball Another long pass to the now unguarded Jim and another short shot finished the scoring for the evening It was a wonderful game played wonderfully by both sides Only six personal fouls were counted against Sparta and only two agamst Tomah Tomah s much lauded defense was at its best and she proved again that she was able to score when scores were needed TOMAH 16 BARABOO 12 Tomahs second game with Baraboo was at Baraboo and helped to dedicate the ence championship for their 16 to 12 victorv over Baraboo marked the second defeat for that school Tomah s nearest contender With only two games left to play it seem ed impossible that Tomah could lose both TOMAH 18 PORTAGE 13 Although generally conceded the championship after the Baraboo game Tomah made her claim official by defeating Portage at Portage 18 to 13 Although she didn t win a game all season Portage represented a fast determmed opposition but was never within five polnts of the champions TOMAH 19 LOGAN 9 The last game of the year for the conference champions was home game with Logan The La Crosse team had gone through a long hard winter since last the two schools had met winning only three games the whole season. Nevertheless Logan was resolved to get revenge on Olson s team for that Hrst defeat of the year and there were many indications that a lively game was to be expected. For a few minutes the game did look close Logan managing to tie the score at S all in the first quarter but from that time on Tomah piled up an ever-increasing lead finishing the half 11 to 5 and the game 19 to 9. The Indians were not paying as close attention to their defense as usual occupying themselves chiefly with the basket. WON 10-LOST 0 Thus Tomah closed the season undefeated in scheduled competition. Going back before the season opened her only defeats were the two handed out by her own Alumni. In no game were there more than 17 points scored on Tomah s defense. Twenty men made up the squad, only three of whom will graduate. Of these twenty, nine saw con- ference competition. The first team was composed of Edward Becker and Francis Rice, forwards, James Knoblauch, center, and Captain Leo Gasper and Elwin Sowle, guards. Wilson Spangenberg, at guard, saw action in almost every game. Besides these six, Hy- land, Hanson, and Heilman played in conference games. Gasper, Sowle, and Rice are seniors and will not 'be back next year. ' ii.-3 i-.iii-. ' splendid new Baraboo gymnasium. It also practically assured the Indians of the Confer- - S' v xv! v E!

The pick of the conference and non-confer- ence schools was represented in that array, which included La Crosse Central, district champions for ten years straight, Prairie du Chien, the only team in this region to hand La Crosse a defeat during the season just passed, Tomah, undefeated champion of its conference, Baraboo, Reedsburg, Sparta, Galesville, and Viroqua. Tomah entered the tournament highly rated, although doped only for third place or at least for a good chance to hand La Crosse Central its first tournament defeat. As it turned out, Tomah was fated never to meet Doc Finley's highly touted squad. The Indians swept through three splendid victories to a well-earned district title, while La Crosse dropped by the wayside with two straight defeats. Prairie gave the Red and Black its first tournament defeat, in eleven years, the first day of competition. The second day, tiny Galesvsille, defeated once before on the La Crosse floor 59 to 2, trampled Coach Finley's machine into the dust to the tune of 19 to 11. THURSDAY, MARCH 14 For its first game Tomah was pitted against the Viroqua team, a member of the conference. The game was an easy win for the Indians. Playing in perfect form, Ol- son's men rolled up a higher and higher score to win finally 34 to 10 with the largest score of the tournament. Other results of the first- day were: Prairie 25, La Crosse 15, Baraboo 23, Gales- ville 113 Reedsburg 23, Sparta 8. FRIDAY, MARCH 15 The second night Tomah met Reedsburg, a powerful team despite its poor confer- ence record. It was Reedsburg that a year before had upset the Indians in their first day of play. This time, although Reedsburg, headed by the flashy Krueger, kept the lead shifting throughout three quarters, Tomah's superiority told when the boys opened up with an unexpected reserve drive in the last quarter and walked away with the game, 21 to 14. After this victory it seemed impossible that Tomah could lose. This attitude of confidence was given added color the same night when Baraboo, twice defeated by the Indians, failed by only one point of nosing out Prairie for last night honors. Galesville that afternoon had sent La Crosse home with a 19 to 11 defeatg Sparta had eliminated Viroqua, 23 to 163 and in the evening, Prairie saved itself from Viroqua in a desperate scoring battle, 16 to 15. SATURDAY, MARCH 16 Saturday afternoon Sparta finished Galesville with a 23 to 14 score and Reedsburg won the right to play Hillis ponies for third place honors by trimming Baraboo, 21 to 16. Thus the stage was set for the last night combats. On the first of these, Reedsburg swamped Sparta the second time for that tourna- ment and the third for the year, 25 to 15, thus winning third place, or consolation honors. The Prairie-Tomah game was a far different game than any others played in the tournament. The two best defenses in the district were on display, and they were Q - '? ? - - XvfXv Q Xv Xvf Page 74 showing at their best. The contest was slow, careful, grueling, with every point bitterly contested. Tomah had only two free throws by Sowle when the half ended, while Prairie had dropped in two field baskets. Another basket, to make the score 6 to 2, was sunk soon after the opening of the half. Finally Tomah found herself. With Spangenburg at guard playing a lightning game, Prairie was for a moment drawn off while Fritz Rice sank a perfect long shot. Tomah was started and built up her score to ten, holding Prairie to its 6 to win the district title. The Indians showed the results of careful training in the calmness, skill, and headwork which they displayed. They left the floor the undoubted superiors of any team in the tournament, having finished for Tomah the most successful basket-ball season in the history of the school. The State Tournament HE state tournament at Madison, opening April 3, was a different affair, so far as Tomah was concerned, from the district tournament. The sixteen best high school teams in the state were at Madison. Very prominent on the list were large schools such as Kenosha, Belo-it, Wisconsin High of Madison, Superior Cen- tral and Wausau. Nevertheless, Tomah could not help feeling hopeful. The Indians had won their district title with the closest defensive score in the state. No team had pierced that Tomah defensive armor consistently yet. It seemed impossible that any team could. WISCONSIN HIGH 23, TOMAH 11 The first game played, with Wisconsin High of Madison, was a sad awakening to the bitter truth that Tomah was not, after all, a team of super-men. Wisconsin High pierced that defense-went through it as water goes through a sieve. Although the splendid fight the Indians made drew rounds of applause from the galleries, the boys were playing out of their depth. There was nothing to be done, so the whole squad of eight alternated at doing it, Wisconsin High too.k an early lead, 10 to 2 at the first quarter, and held it, leading 15 to 6 at the half, 20 to 8 at the third quarter, and 23 to 11 at the end. TOMAH 14, WISCONSIN RAPIDS 9 In its first consolation game the Tomah squad gained a 14 to 9 victory over Wis- consin Rapids. With spring suddenly very much in evidence, the heat in the big gym was intense and good basket-ball was impossible. The game was merely a matter of which team could sco.re the least. Tomah finally won out, 14 to 9. PLATTEVILLE 21, TOMAH 19 The Indians had to take a heartbreaker in their second consolation game when they lost to Platteville by two points after establishing a 13 to 2 lead. The final score was 21 to 19, and by it Tomah was eliminated from further competition. The only real consolation Tomah had was in seeing Wisconsin High, its successful opponent of the first night, force Wausau, the final champion, to the ropes in a near victory. However, the Timber Town came back and won the game, so Tomah's hope of being defeated by a champion was lost. Although Tomah won only one game, its Hrst showing in a state tournament may be considered very good. Although the most ardent Tomah fan hardly looks forward to another season as successful as this last during his generation, yet Mr. Olson is still here, and while Tomah has him, nearly anything can happen.

LEO GASPER It is almost enough to say of Leo that he has cap- tained a team undefeated in conference and district, and that he was chosen as guard on the mythical all-tourna- ment team. Even though playing standing guard, he made himself second high scorer of the squad, with 63 points to his credit. As Captain, Leo Gasper has, to use Mr. Olson's words, set a standard for the future generals of Tomah teams. As a player Leo would be valuable to any team. As a teammate and captain he has proved an inspiration to the championship squad of 1928-29. JAMES KNOBLAUCH 'flumpin' jim Kloblauch, captain-elect for 1929- 30, is Tomah's other all-tournament man. His playing during the three days at Sparta was such, that he was unanimously picked, as the most outstanding center in the tournament. In addition, Jim was high scorer for the team during the past season, bringing in 128 points for Tomah High. He is tall and fast, getting the tip at center prac- tically every time, and invaluable on close inshots. The new captain did not break into Tomah basket-ball until the middle of last season, but since then he has won a place in the hearts of his teammates that brought in an unani- mous vote for next year's captaincy. If jim comes up to the standard set by this year's leader, he will amply justify the confidence Tomah places in him. ELWIN SOWLE Tomah's third giant is Sowlie, a guard according to the lineup, a forward by substitution a good part of the time, and a bang-up scorer all the time. Apparently trailed by the god of luck who has given him enough free throw chances for a whole team Elwin has himself played a clean sportsmanlike game all year has checked and guarded so efficiently that Tomahs defensive score has sunk plenty of baskets from the field whether he was playing guard or forward Like Leo Sowlie graduates with the class of 29 leaving a hole that will be hard to ' , was held to an average of less than 13 points a game, and g a fill. A' '-' A 'U ' avr X,f Ng Nvf v v v Page 76 FRANCIS RICE It is tough on a basket-ball player to have had an older brother with a great record to which he is expected to live up to. Fritz Rice knocked this difficulty in the head and proved that the Rices did not leave when Connie did, by playing a game which that former star will have to look up to. Fritz, as forward, was not a giant in size, but his constant activity, his fast and slippery offense, and his eificient long shooting boosted his importance to gigantic proportions. In the Prairie game at the tourna- ment, his basket was Tomah's first field goal and proved the one which seemed to swing the tide of victory. Fritz also graduates this year. EDWARD BECKER Modest and shy as a rose is he, a fact which everyone plainly can see-but Nick doesn't like poetry-he blushes when his praises are sung in prose. As Fritz Rice's running mate, Nick played a fine game at forward, flashing most brightly against Adams-Friendship, when he went on a rampage and sank five baskets. Becker will be back again next year, as captain of the football team in the fall, and only forward letterman on the basket-ball team. Since Ed never says anything for himself, one must watch him on che floor to know him. WILSON SPANGENBERG Taking up basket-ball this fall as a ugreenhornf, with football supposedly his real game, Spang quickly picked up the new sport and advanced so rapidly that he played one of the finest games at guard of any man in the tournament. His coach predicts that by his senior year there won't be a 'better man in the district or in the con- ference. Tomah is going to expect just about that from him next year when he will be a junior. Spang spent most of the year as a sub, but toward the end he was alter- nating regularly at running guard. Although short, he is fast as greased lightning. COACH OLSON From Decorah, Iowa, there comes a native son to whom the local paper refers as Wm. Olson -and Decorah mentions that name with pride. Tomah is a little less informal, and here the name becomes Mr. Olson, although his friends are free with the word Bill There are many factors which contribute to a team's success, such as co-operation, fight, training, and so on. But overshadowing them all is the guiding force of the whole system, the coach. Mr. Olson has proved himself everything a good coach should be, in- cluding a real sport and a man of the character of the type that should be placed as an example for our ath- letes. Tomah is fortunate in keeping for another year the services of such a man. We are glad to say that Mr. Olson will be with us next year. Bill Olson has entrenched himself in the hearts of Tomah fans. wf t xv 'xv' - 'XY'-Xvf'iv'Nvf'i'v'xXvf - Page 77 7 555.

Especially we remember the slide stunt wherein Mr. Olson and the team were so realistically portrayed. The basket-ball game between Wisconsin High and Tomah High, played at the state tournament mass meeting, added much to the effectiveness of the meeting. Basket-ball, football, forensics, Hamot and Carnival, all were looked forward to with added enthusiasm because the peppy mass meetings and aroused interest and real school spirit.

The scene was truly Alpine, a land of snow-capped mountains and towering ever- greens. Snuggled close in the hills were cosy houselets. From snowforts erected here and there girls clad in white served punch. At a Swiss Chalet, where fireplaces gleamed cheerily, Swiss maidens served refreshments to the dancers. Jeanette Sowle and Earl Clay, president ofthe Junior Class, led the Grand March. They were followed by the Senior class president, the prom chairman, other oflicers and members of the two'classes. The following program, planned to fit into the Swiss atmosphere, was given: Alpine Dance - D. Skidmore, H. Linder, B. Clayborune, E. Bennett Sleighing Song - - - Girls' Chorus Pony Ballet - M.

From 10:45 to 10:58 o'clock everyone in the Main Room sat in reverential silence. At two minutes of eleven o'clock everyone arose and faced the Cast, for two minutes, in honor of those who gave a full measure of devotion in the late war. THANKSGIVING PROGRAM An appropriate Thanksgiving program was given on November 28 by the Juniors. The program consisted of the following numbers: Selections - - - - High School Orchestra Talks' - - - - Keith Bennett, Phyllis Brown, Elizabeth Chase, Victor Reinholz, Margaret Wirth Selections --..- Junior-Senior Chorus Trio - ---- Misses Spencer, Gray, Leyda CHRISTMAS PROGRAM A unique Christmas program was sponsored by the Freshman class. A special chorus of freshman girls and boys marched into the Main Room while they sang, O, Come All Ye Faithful? The boys took their station on the north side of the stage and the girls on the south. As they sang Christmas Carols, silhouettes illustrated the themes of the songs. LINCOLN'S DAY PROGRAM N February 12 the Sophomores gave a very interesting program. The one-act play, The Day Lincoln Died made the audience feel the spirit of patriotism which existed at the time of Lincoln's death. WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY PROGRAM The Seniors sponsored the Washington's Birthday program. The program con- sisted of the following numbers: Songs ----- - - Jane Lord Address- The Character of Washingtoni' - Rev. F. R.

The banquet was served by members of the Domestic Science Department. Following the banquet a program was given. The climax of evening's fes- tivity was the election and initiation of the Captain of 1929. Following the election the room was darkened and Captain George Curran presented the lighted candle to Edward Becker, the newly elected football captain. The program was as follows: Toastmaster - - - - Mr. Mennes The Value of Athletics - - - Mr. McKean Selection ----- - Boys' Glee Clu'b Football the Great American Benefactor Francis Clark Past Memories ---- George Curran Election of Captain Response - - Captain-elect Roses - - - - - Mr. Olson Basket-ball Banquets N Thursday, March 21, the basket-ball players and Coach Olson were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. J. Knoblauch, parents of one of the players, jim. The house and table decorations were especially appropriate. A sumptuous dinner, en- joyed by all, was served at six o'clock. The Tomah Advancement Association gave the basket-ball boys a banquet on the evening of April 1. About two hundred and twenty-five guests were accommodated, and many were turned away for want of room. Following the banquet a program was given. Mr. Dinsmore acted as toastmaster. Speeches were given by Mr. McCaul, and Mr. Olson. Mr. Nuzum presented the gifts -white sweaters to the basket-ball players, a watch to Mr. Olson, and a compact to Miss Reiser. Community singing closed the banquet. The boys were especially pleased with the event, for it showed them in a visible way that the community was appreciating the efforts they were putting forth to play good basket-ball. The Basket-ball banquet at the High School on Tuesday, April 16 marked the official close of the basket-ball season of 1929. The entire squad were guests and the boys were very grateful to Miss Kuhefus and her helpers for the very sumptuous ban- quet. The committee in charge prepared an excellent program which was climaxed by the unanimous election of jim Knoblauch as captain of the 1930 basket-ball team.

Studies were forgotten and Tomah High School was the scene of many happy and care-free dancers until eleven o'clock. 1 . Junior Party The Juniors entertained at the second all-school party and on January 20, 1929 Q the gymnasium became the scene of joyous high school students once more. The program consisted of two very clever numbers, The Tale of the Tabconezzer ' Kidf' and a dramatization of the song Sweethearts on Paradef' 1 . Sophomore Party ' The closing party of the year was given early in May, by the Sophomore class. , Everyone took advantage of their last chance to attend a party at Tomah High this 4 year, and made it a happy occasion. A clever program was given and delicious, sparkling punch was served. ' 1 Freshman Party l The third annual post-prom party was given by the Freshmen, on April 20. The 1 lovely prom decorations made the party a truly outstanding social event. The program given at the Junior prom was repeated at the party. The Freshman party was a decided success.

Fay W ALT was worried and disgusted and sick of everything. Basket-ball players-or all athletes, for that matter--were such darned bullheadsf' That was Walter's expression, and as he leaned on the rail of the balcony and watched the Big Five in action against the scrubs, he breathed the word over and over again through his thin lips. Bullheads! Bullheaded, every one of them. Why in the name of Walter Camp couldn't the Big Five have taken their medicine and hurled themselves back into the fight for the championship? Why did they have to go and take that crazy idea of cutting practice for an afternoon anyway, even if they did want to see the university game? They were unanswered questions that had been bitterly turned over and over again in Walter's mind. Every time a good team got started right, Walter reflected, some- thing happened to ball up the works. You couldn't have a championship team with human nature hanging around. Then, the stunt they had pulled, the Big Five! The subs hadn't cut practice to see the university game. The coach hadn't, even though his school and some of his old schoolmates were playing that afternoon. Coaches don't call off practice with the big game only two weeks away. No, the coach and the subs hadn't cut practice. But then, Walter reflected cynically, they wouldn't have been subs if they hadg or rather, they would have cut had they not been subs. S 'f 1'i 1 1 f 1 i i i f i' 1 v v ' v v v v v - v v v Page 84 4 I The Big Five had cut, and they were getting their medicine. The coach didn't say anything, The Old Man wasn't the kind. He had merely left the Big Five out of the next game. It was only a non-conference, supposedly easy game, but the crowd was large that night and interest high. Furthermore, the game was a thriller, and the subs had handled it masterfully, winning out finally in a nip and tuck race by a narrow margin. Along with their victory they took the plaudits of the crowd, while the Big Five sat in sulky silence and swallowed their dose. Theirs was a silent treatment. 'iThe Old Man never alluded to the cut prac- tice. He seldom spoke of anything, for 'that matter-he never did. It just wasn't his way. Neverthless, although no new arrangement had been announced, to all ap- pearances the subs were now the first team. The Big Five ate humble pie and during practice took the defensive while the subs tried out The Old Man's pet new system of offense, or, at other times, worked on the offensive against the school,s famous three and two defense. The subs were doing well-too well. The Big Five was sluggish, or rather, it seemed to Walter, rather nervous and excited. Apparently, there was something on their minds besides basket-ball. They were always grouping, whenever there was spare time and The Old Man was out of hearing, and talking low among themselves. Nor were they always so particular that the coach was out of sight. What he thought, however, he kept to himself. If he would only talk-but that wouldn't help any, Walter reflected, since there was nothing he could say to the players, anyway. Page X5 ' HHIQNQQDT .aaa ' It was some remarks overheard at one of these groupings that had plunged Walter so low in the depths of despair. Sometimes he thought of going to the coach with what he had heard, but always he realized the uselessness of this move. He was prac- tically unknown to the coach and timid by nature anyway. The Old Man would do nothing. He had his methods and he was using them. Then, too, The Old Man had no use for poor sports or babies, If the Big Five chose to go ahead and act babyish, that was all there was to it so far as he was concerned. Yet, Walter knew, it would practically break the coach's heart to have the Big Five pull the stunt Walter was certain they were planning. He might even quit, basket-ball, and that high school without The Old Man -who really wasn't old-didn't look like much of a high school to Walter. Walter was a junior, although he could have passed for an undersized freshman, and during the three years he had been in the school he had come to regard The Old Man as the very personification of all that is fine in manhood. Deprived by fate and nature of the physical ability to take part in sports, he was the most enthusiastic and steady follower of them in the school. In.this way he had come into slight con- tact with his ideal. The Old Man noticed the boy a little, but thought little of him. He wanted to see in every boy a prospective athlete. Just as Walter reverenced The Old Man, so to him every athlete was a Greek god, perfect in body and soul. Although his idols usually crumbled before his eyes, his temperament was such that new ones were continually rising in their places. ' s . - V - vvvvvv ' Page 86 5. NAKED? :14-L-5. 9 D It had been a terrible blow to Walter to hear what he had heard that group dis- cussing. Most cruel of all was that it was the captain of the squad speaking. There had been rumors around school, of course. There are always excitement spreaders. Some said the Big Five were turning in their suits-Walter knew they were not. Others knew on good authority that the Big Five were going to quit if the coach's attitude didn't change. There were others, many others, but all were along the same line-the Big Five were dissatisfied and sulky and weren't going to stand for things much longer. Then Walter heard, as he was getting into his coat at his locker, that group be- hind him across the hall. Remember, Cap Shaw was saying, If he doesn't start us in the first quar- ter, back to the locker room. Are you on?', Absolutely, agreed Skyjack Williams, the center who could touch the rim of the basket easily. Back to the locker room, and no fussf' And if the Old Man asks us where we're going, Rocky,' snickered, we can tell him, Those who live longest will see the most. The group broke up, laughing unroariously over this last sally. But in Walter's heart there was anything but laughter. That afternoon he heard a new rumor-the Page 87 1 P Big Five was going to quit if the coach didn't put them into the next game. And Walter could not doubt this time, for he had heard himself. That next game wasn't very important-just another non-conference affair. It was the game less than a week later that counted. That contest would practically decide the championship, or at least the trend of affairs. It was the big game that the team had been drilling for during the past two weeks of layoff. With a team in tip-top condi- tion, as the Big Five was, the school ought to win. But if the Big Five bolted in the game before-well, they might change their minds and come back before the big game, but The Old Man Wouldn't. Quitters and babies, even of championship caliber, were not what he wanted on his team. Yet Walter was certain that the coach was not intending to start the Big Five. That information was another rumor, and the way he was working the subs, it looked as though the rumor was true. Thus affairs stood the night of the next game. Although not a conference game, it was a traditional contest with an old rival, and the gym was packed with enthusiastic rooters from both schools. Worked into a frenzy by his fear of what appeared inevitable, Walter in his des- peration had thought of only one wild, crazy scheme for keeping the Big Five on the team. It seemed too wild to try, yet there was nothing else. So, although assuring him- self that he wouldn't carry it out, Walter nevertheless being nervously about the door of the passageway from the gym to the stairs which led up to the dressing room. Page 88 The teams appeared went through several minutes of practice returned to the dressing rooms and finally reappeared this tim with five men taking the floor at each end and the others trailing to the benches near the scorer s table For the high school five subs took the floor Walters heart pounded against his ribs Vet he did not move The Big Five were sitting peacefully on the bench How ever once the game began and the coach s interest became centered on the court the boy saw the Big Five slip from thelr end of the bench and start toward him With his heart pounding even more fiercely he turned and darted down the pas sageway and up the stair Since he was not in the gym he did not see what happened back there at the bench but he did see the squad on whom he had laid h1s hopes for a championship coming up that passageway toward the dressing room Alone he stood at the top of the stair even as Horatius stood b fore the bridge at Rome. Though his lip did quiver and his knees did shake there was no slacking in the firm resolve to see to a finish the thing he had begun. Stop! His voice was husky and a trifle shaky. Rocky Moore looked up in surprise. You-you can t come up here quavered W' alter. You stay there. Well! the Big Five stared in amazement. Whats the matter? demanded Cap. i 4 4 HA - vvvvvvvvv'vv ' Page 89 I 9 MAME? 5.2. I , You can't come up here, repeated Walter, more firmly. Why? Why can't we? they chorused. Because, he answered more calmly yet, I won't let you. This answer not being accepted by the group as satisfying or even true, they con- tinued to stare incredulously. I don't get your drift, kid, Cap said irritatedly. What are you talking about? Don't come up here! Walter commanded, as Rocky started up the stair. To emphasize his point he lifted affoot, size number six, that wouldn't have been com- fortable under the chin. Rocky stopped uncertainly. We want to get into the dressing room, he argued. We're not after you. Why should we hurt you? You're hurting the whole school, Walter replied doggedly. You can't come into this dressing room. But-but- Cap spluttered, it's our dressing room. Our clothes are in there. We're not stealing anything. Yes! Walter was waxing braver. Your clothes are in here! Well, you're not going to get them, so go on back to the bench and quit hurting the school. Hurting the school? How are we hurting the school? demanded Cap. His question wasn't answered, for Skyjack, bewildered and irritated, thrust him aside. Aw, the kid's crazy or else a thief, he said. Come on, or The Old Man'll be looking for us. And he charged up the steep, narrow stairway, with the others behind him. 47 ? e x f Page Q0 He proved a poor charger. Hurrying up the steep stairway he leaned farther and farther back, until, as he neared the top, he was far enough out of equilibrium for Wal- ter's foot, planted not very hard, though in sheer desperation, sheer in the middle of his chest to send him crashing headlong down the stairway, his four comrades furnishing a padding of a sort, although a poor one. The look on Skyjack's face as he unfolded his six feet four frame from the cement floor was terrible. Walter relinquished any ideas he may have had of remaining any longer in the role of Horatius. The protecting Tiber lay just behind, so, adapting a policy which Hannibal has made famous and which regards discretion as the principal element of valor, he slipped into the locker room, and closed and bolted the door after him. The five outside hammered on the door and in no very inviting terms urged him to open it. Disregarding them, he sat down on a bench and reviewed the situation before him. Now for the first time he had opportunity to think of the game outside. There was a great deal of yelling going on, but he could tell nothing by that. He did not know that the subs were being utterly swamped in a hopelessly one-sided battle back there in the gym. Thus he did not understand the cause of the sudden cessation of activity outside his door. He did not know that The old man's voice had rung commandingly down the passageway and that the Big Five, fighting mad for reasons that even their coach did not understand, were now out there on the floor playing like wild men. For many minutes Horatius stayed within his Rome. All was quiet on the stairs and in the passageway, but he dared not open the door. It might be only a ruse. So he waited on, revolving scheme after scheme in his mind for escaping the wrath he knew would come. v - - V' - - Q',Nsv',Y ,Xv', Page 91 .-2...-35. WHHANHQT 54.4.-. 4 D The idea he finally adapted was simple. All he needed to do was discover whether or not the Big Five were outside, and if they weren't, to creep down the stairs and so escape. After that-well, Sufficient unto the day are the evils thereof. Things had been quiet outside for so long that at last he gathered courage enough to unbolt and slowly open the door. There was no one there, nor in the passageway below. He started down the top stairs. There was a sharp crack as the gun signalling end of the half went off. The crowd cheered. A rush of feet stampeded down the passage. Walter leaped back into the room and gazed wildly around for a hiding-place-no chance for escape now. . Only one hiding-place presented itself. All the lockers were not used. They were tall, full-length, and stepping into the first unused one, Walter pulled the door closed on his cramped quarters as the players burst into the room. He was surprised that there was no mention of him. Everyone was talking game, and even under the circumstances his heart glowed as he heard that his school led by a good' margin. Then there was a hush as Cap spoke. Are we all here? he asked. Is The Old Man occupied down below? All right, now's the time. We tried to get up here so it'll be ready to present to him during the half, but some lunatic locked the door on us. We'd better get it over with now so we can rest up before the third quarter. I'll get it. Suddenly, to Walter's surprise and terror, the door of his locker was jerked open, and there stood the captain facing him, equally surprised. What the-! he yelled. Are you into that too? I see now. Get out of there! And he jerked the little fellow out of the locker. -e Then, reaching in, he drew forth a bundle wrapped in paper. . Good! he said. It's all right. As he held out the. bundle the wrappings fell from around it and the dressing room lights gleamed dully on what seemed to Walter the most beautiful silver trophy he had ever seen: a basket-ball player, at the height of - - 'F' - - - Page 92 aaa EHARQQT his spring, with the ball seemingly magically poised on his finger-tips. On the ebony base a silver plate was engraved. To The Old Man Of Our Athletics Who for Four Years Here Has Played the Gamev This Emblem is Ajfectionately Presented By the Basket-hall Seniors The Men Who Began With Him Am! Are Ready to End With Him. As with a flash of inspiration, Walter remembered that the Big Five, as well as several others, were seniors and had learned all their basket-ball under The Old Man, just as he had learned his coaching in his experience with them. He was spared the anger of the Big Five, for just as they turned to him, the door opened and The Old Man himself stepped into the room, looking around in surprise at the strange attitudes. What,s up?,' he demanded gruffly. Cap drew a deep breath. 'zYou're supposed to be down belowf' he said, but now you're here, I'll tell you what it's all about. I had a nice speech to say to you, but it's all gone now. You've been here four years, sire, and we seniors have been here four years. You,ve taught us some things-some things-well, things that weren't in the rule book-things that you can't define, like sportsmanship, only it's finer than that sounds. Anyway, we decided that at this game we'd present you with some kind of em- blem or something to show just how we appreciate you. Most things like that are given after the season, but we got to talking and decided why not give it now, before we- before you-that is, before the championship is decided, so it will show what we really think about things not exactly basket-ball and scores and so on. So here it is. , v - , vvevvvv' ' Page 93 Q .aaa MARHQT E..-2.-2.4 I r He brought the trophy forward from behind his back. Only, he went on, You can't have it now. We're going to make a public pres- entation. We would have at the end of the half, only when we left at the beginning of the game, since we thought we wouldn't play the first half and we could get every- thing ready up here, why this little runt locked us out of the locker room. Was that why you all left? asked the coach, understanding dawning on his face along with relief. Why, when I saw you go, I thought-I thought- but he didn't finish. Yes, admitted the captain. But for some crazy reason this kid wouldn't let us in the room. And kicked us all down stairs, added Skyjack fiercely. He's a thief, I think. Kicked you all down stairs? demanded the coach, the hint of a smile playing about his lips as the room roared hilariously over the picture Skyjack had aroused. What have you to say for yourself? he demanded of Walter. Why were you in this room and why did you keep them out? Poor Walter was utterly bewildered at the turn events had taken. Well,', he replied, I-I-- then he stopped. I-that is, I heard them say- I don't know-I thought they were planning to-to-I thought-I just thought some- thing else, he finished in a sudden burst. But what was this you thought? Cap demanded. p Enough, Shaw! commanded the coach. I think I see. Young fellowf' he said softly, I believe you thought the same thing I did. And you thought of a way to stop it. He laid his arm on Walter's shoulders. I believe he's all right. Hurry up now and get ready. Our intermission is just about up. Page 94 ' 3-.aa MIARHQT .a a-. - The Good Sportsman HONORABLE MENTION, l'IAMOT STORY CONTEST By Ruth Iobafnnessen OUISE BROWN stumbled blindly down the stairs, her big blue eyes filled with tears. She did want to play in the basket-ball game Friday night. Why in the world wouldn,t Miss White let her play? Hadn't she been to practice every night and hadn't she done everything that she had been told to do? What if Margaret johnson could play better than she could? It wasn't a matter of life and death if they won or lost the game. Of course, it would be nice if they could win but it would be much nicer if she could play. I don't care, I don't think that Margaret can play any better than I can. She's just Miss White's favorite, that's all, said Louise to herself. Miss White hopes I won't be disappointed and says she's sorry, but Margaret simply must play. She'll let me play sub if one is needed. A sub indeed! What do they think I am? With these thoughts Louise slammed her books down beside her locker in an effort to satisfy her anger and disappointment. She knew, suddenly, what she was going to do. She'd show them. She just wouldn't go to that game at all Friday night and then if a sub was needed-well, then they would find out that they couldn't snub her all the time. This plan evidently cheered Louise, for as she went down the High School hill she smiled at those she met. By the time she reached home, Louise was even humming a gay little tune as she tripped up the Walk. After supper was over and the nightly tasks finished, Louise began her studying. As her English class had been studying editorials, Louise picked up the evening paper and read the editorial which it contained. The editorial, which was on Good Sportsmanship, began: A good sportsman is one who can take defeat and disappointment with a smile. He is one who obeys a leader's orders without asking an endless number of questions. Louise sat up and opened her eyes wide. Why, that was just what she hadn't been doing. She had questioned Miss White's choice of players, and more than that, she, a senior, had cried 'because she had been disappointed. Was she, then, a poor sport? Wasn't she a good sportsman? Suddenly, Louise saw herself as others must have seen her many times before. It was true. She wasn't a good sport. She didn,t know how to take defeat courteously or graciously. Why, she was terrible! Louise closed her fists and pounded them on the arm of the chair as she cried, Why didn't anyone ever tell me before? Oh, I'm going to be different after this and I will, I must be a good sportsmanf' The night of the big game arrived and, contrary to her plan, Louise was there. The game was close but nevertheless her class lost 18-20. Unusual as it was, Louise's voice was the first to be raised in a cheer for the opposing team. - Ry Nv xv bv Nr NU k Rr XvfXv'Xvf 1 Page 95 Q D Forbidding State Tournaments QUILL AND SCROLL FIRST PRIZE By David Fay O THE rabid enthusiast who has witnessed the final, thrilling, last-night con- test in a state or even district tournament, the mere thought of the abolition of these elimination contests would seem absurd. Yet in New York a move- ment is under way to secure a ruling against state tournaments in any sport, while in other parts of the United States a similar attitude has arisen. Behind this growing feeling that tournament style of play is undesirable, there is much sound reasoning and certainly a great deal of justice. A state tournament winner is selected through the process of elimination. This fact means that the so-called champion plays each opponent 'but once. If it goes through all its games undefeated, it is champion. Should it lose but once, it can hope for nothing better than second place. Very few teams finish a regular basket-ball season undefeated, and every fan knows the frequency with which the dope is upset, and some team of minor ability defeats another manifestly its superior. Thus a tournament Winner may be in truth not the real champion at all. Against the obvious truth of the claim that tournament play is more exciting than straight league competition must be placed the still more obvious truth, that real values are not properly rated in tournament contests. A second claim brought against the tournament is that it not truly representative of the schools of the state. It is a practice with many large cities to withhold their high school teams from tournament competition simply because they realize that their schools are beyond the class of most of the contestants. Where this is not done, the advantage exists nevertheless, and the smaller schools entered are crowded into the background. Thus, either the state champion is not selected from all the schools of the state, or else the winner enters the tournament with an advantage. The tournament, state, district, or national, is directly contrary to the universally accepted league or conference system. In the conference teams of equal, or nearly equal, ability are entered in group competition, the championship given to the team winning most games, or the largest percent of its games. This is the logical system. To send these same teams into tournament competition is certainly illogical. So long as people love excitement and thrills, so long will tournaments be held and schools will expend time and energy to win a championship which to a real observer is often not a championship at all. New York is making a fine move in ruling out the tournament. Of course, there must be something to replace this style of championship selection. This new method will be worked out as necessity demands. It is bound to be some method by which teams of fairly equal value are pitted against each other, for only then can real competition be witnessed. Page 96 I l I A t K -af., .Y . . .rv ,,,, -X , ,.

But now the question arises, will aviation continue ,fp K, to progress? Many of the people will answer yesg many believe that it can- X f not and will not progress nearly as rapidly as the automobile industry has in the last 1 -r X quarter of a century. f - However, are we not taking great progressive steps in aviation today? The 150- 'i 43 hour non-stop flight of the Question Mark has encouraged proposals for a non-stop X flight around the world. Is not this flight a great progressive step in aviation? X, In late years aviation has progressed rapidly because governments have taken 4' real interest in its welfare-in fact, aviation progresses without governmental aid. 5 The really only great commercial use we have for planes in the United States today xx is for the carrying of mail. Letters can be rushed from one place to another by aero- ll I . . . . . 'f l planes in much less time than required by the regular mail service that we have at the K present time.

In the future a nation's progress will depend greatly upon the 'X- 4 aviation system that it has.

I COBBLER fLooking up and shaking finger sagelyj: Certainly I do, and furthermore that's the best definition of life I have ever seen or heard. You just try it out and see. SHINE: Try it out? How? COBBLER: Supposing you try it out today. just keep it in mind all through the day and see if all those things don't happen before the sun rises tomorrow morning. In the meantime, here is a pair of shoes to shine, please. fHands Shine a pair of slippers. Then adding a thought mischievouslyj: Be glad of life because it gives you a chance to work.

COBBLER frisingj: Good morning, Mrs. Chandler, what may I do for you this pleas- ant morning? MRS. CHANDLER fsarcasticallyh Well, if you lived with a husband like mine you wouldn't think it a pleasant morning by any means. However, I at last got the money out of him and I,m here to see what sort of a bargain you can give me for four dollars. fSeats herself on the bench with rather a queenly air.j COBBLER: Most assuredly. Sit down will you please? and what size do you wear? fwalks over to shoe shelvesj MRS. CHANDLER! About five and one-half, I suppose. Dear me! when I was married I only wore a two, and now look at my feet! fAs she says this last, she pulls of her shoe, and to her utter dismay discovers a- large hole in the heel.

Q MRS. CHANDLER: H'm! First time I ever had a good look at my feet-I mean with a mirror, as though they were a couple of faces or the like. SHINE fasidej: Good thing. MRS. CHANDLER I as Cobbler starts to bring another pair of shoes Q: Don't bother about bringing any more out, these'll squeak for a Sunday and a couple of prayer meetings so that folks will know they are brand new and then they will do for more common wear. f As Cobbler starts to take shoes of to pat in boxj 7Here, I'll take it off. f She takes it of and hands it to the bewildered Cobbler and then puts the ola' one on. She reaches in her purse ana' draws a five-dollar bill out. Hands it to him, he changes it and presents her with the remains, a one-dollar bill. I Who'd ever think that money could go that fast! Four dollars for two feet, think! Two dollars a foot. Feet are mighty expensive nowadays, aren,t they? Four dollars was all I paid thirty years ago for my whole wedding outfit, and now my feet are so much bigger they cost that much more. K She rises, puts the box under her arm, pats it proudly, and struts out. Q COBBLER: Next one is yours to wait on, Shine. SHINE: Hope it's easier than yours. COBBLER: She afforded us a good laugh. fAnd then sagely again:j Be glad of life because it gives you a chance to playv-laugh could be substituted easily enough.

' SHINE: M-most cer-certainly. f Turns and goes to shelf to look for shoes. She walks over and sits down on the bench and takes her right slipper of. Shine brings back three or four different pairs and seats himself on the stool in front of her feet. Q GWENDOLYN fsingling out one pairj: Oh, let's try these on first. Aren't they ritzy looking though? f Shine tries one on her foot. He keeps his hands on her feet feeling of her feet in pretending that he is testing the fit of them.

GWENDOLYN: I guess I'll take these home and see whether the family will pass favor- able judgment on them or not. I hope they do like them' for I do have an awful time deciding between different pairs which I like the better. SHINE: I assure you they would all be most becoming. fShyly smiles. She returns a smile sweetlyj GWENDOLYN: What is the price? I'll pay for them and then the family will End it harder to say no. SHINE f almost apologeticallyj Six dollars.

Five and one are equal to six, I believe. fCoquet- ishly 1. She takes the shoes, which he wraps, and trips out of the shop. SHINE: Say, what is her name? Isnit she a jewel?

Sure, she would! f Shine walks over to motto again, takes it down, reaches for some sticky wrapping paper and pastes a strip on the motto, blotting some of the words out. Holds it up so that audience can see what he has done. Gwendolyn re-entersj GWENDOLYN: I was so excited about my own shoes I nearly forgot mother's.

Ive wanted to meet you so I thought Now s my chance. That will be heaps of fun. Say isn t that a pretty motto and why is that paper pasted on it? She picks it up rom counter rather lazily.

It is food for the deli- cate, or for the robust child-for the man who wields the Sledge or produces brain work--for the sick and well, and for the rich and poor alike. Butter is concentrated energy. The body needs it and the stomach absorbs 98 per cent of all butter eaten. It contains life-giving substances not present in any other food. These substances are called vitamines and are necessary for existence. It is a life-promoting and health-producing food. 'Therelis no substitute for butter!

Character they deem an essential to success, and they tell us that character is gained largely through saving, for saving requires will-power, persistence and fore- sight, and these three are necessary for the mould- ing of a successful character. ln our early years, we are all somewhat inclined to discount the advice of an older generation, but, as our school training only experience can give, we find, almost invariably, that our elders-the men and women who have experienced life- knew of what they were talking. Every official of our organization is willing and glad, at all times, to advise with young people particularly who are seeking the success way, and you are invited to avail yourself of our service whenever it may be beneficial. if Ubi WARRENS BANK Tomah, Wisconsin Page 14: an mm' Method AN is the human element in business-its soul and its brain. Method is the orderly regulation of human effort. Without soul and brain all effort is mechanical. Until man found his soul and began to use his brain with definite purpose, business did not exist. Nor until the growth of business made an orderly regulation of effort necessary did method exist. Success, the attainment of a definite purpose, came with the introduction of method. The development of method made business a science. And the science of business like any other science, is simply the knowledge and understanding of facts and figures, co- ordinated, arranged, systematized for practical, timely use. To this end, and for this purpose, Modern Banking was conceived and developed. People today don't want advice, they want facts' This bank is prepared to give facts to you.
