At each yard he progressed. people stopped, stared, anil wondered, for I fod was deep in thought, and he wore a pained expression on his usually suave face. As if by chance a sign waving in the sunlight caught his eye: “Madame Colleen, Prognosticator.” Hm, a fortune teller.” murmured Harold with all his wisdom of the years spent at University High School. (This is not a paid advertisement—just plain loyalty.) His thoughts, the aforementioned phenomenon, had been harboring on the subject of his Alma Mater, and the sign was the stimulus of an idea. Hod was straining himself to an extreme. As if drawn by a supernatural power he entered the dimly lighted rooms of Madame Colleen, Prognosticator. An attendant relieved him of his hat, coat, and money. 1 lod entered the austere presence of Madame Colleen. Sit down, commanded a deep voice. Hod sat down hurriedly. Facing him was a small, wrinkled, old woman, dressed in the habitual costume of the followers of her profession. Before her, on a small table, lay a pack of dirty cards which she shuffled dextrously. You wish to know something of the past history of University High School's graduating class of 19?4, I understand, continued the fortune teller. I lod nodded. Madame Colleen dealt the cards, face up. on the table. The cards show me the existence of six ladders, each placed on a higher level than its predecessor. These ladders arc labeled. The lowest is called the seventh grade, is it not? “Mum hm,” said Harold blankly. Madame Colleen seemed to have lost the thread of the history at that moment. She closed her eyes, opened them again and concentrated deeply on the cards before her. “I seem to sec an indistinct figure at the top of this ladder,” she finally continued. “Ah, I recognize it now—Betty Boyd heading the seventh grade. The second rung holds Dorothy Stark, and next is Carol TurnadifT. She has since left the institution. Again she hesitated, anil said slowly. “I see a rather large person on the last step. 11c seems to be shouting. 'Boom, Boom, Boom’,—John Hcdback,” she finished triumphantly. Hod heaved a sigh, but Madame Colleen remained in a motionless |x sition, gazing intently at the cards, groping for a last view of the history. She spoke. It comes more clearly to me, now. The second ladder represents the eighth grade. And speaking rapidly, as a schoolboy reciting his lesson, (some schoolboys, anyhow), Heading this ladder is Dorothy Stark, followed by Carol Turnacliff, Bill Glenn, and Dorothy Rosenwald. The cards show the presence of a third ladder. I sec something of eggs,—eggs anil butter. Ah, Freshman year! The dull monotone continued after a slight pause. I hear soft singing.” “That’s me—I mean, I, said Harold brilliantly. “No, no, interrupted the prognosticator, inifutiently, “it is another boy with light hair who heads the third ladder. Bill Glenn. And again Carol Turnacliff appears in the cards, and Dorothy Rosenwald makes her second appearance. I am beginning to recognize these people more clearly. She spoke too soon, for a shadow of doubt crossed her countenance. “I cannot place the occupant of the last rung. He is tall, unassuming, anil very quiet. Skip it, contributed Hod blithely. Madame Colleen ignored him. “The boy is Boh Stevenson. The next ladder is titled Sophomore Year. The top rung is occupied by Bob Gates. An easily recognized figure, now, is in the second place, Carol Turnacliff.” The fortune teller passed her hand before her eyes, and frowned. “How do you feel?” asked Hod. I 16 1 T II K It I S It UNIVERSITY II M. II S C II O O I. I I. A : : “Psychic. On rung numlxT three is Mildred King, who, also, has left the school, and at the bottom is Adacharlottc Pagenkopf. The next series of steps, the Junior year, is headed by Richard Rupp, and placed on the succeeding steps arc Ernest Estes, another ‘dear departed’. Boh Spaeth, and Peggy Christison. The last and highest level is labeled Senior Year. The leader of this ladder is not clear. 11c has not ap|xared in the cards until now, yet he is not a newcomer in the class. “Maybe I can help you”, said Hod. I think I remember the president that vear. David Me—M I on’t tell me! Don’t tell me! I see it all now, said the woman quickly. The leader is David MeNVethy. He is followed by Jim McMillan. Next in line is Boh Spaeth, and last is John Hcdback. Madame (Colleen closed the deck of cards with an air of finality. Harold thanked her and hurried out. The attendant handed him his hat. coat, hut kept everything that happened to lx in the pockets. Harold walked out into the bright sunlight. Tlie Last Will anti T estament o t tlie Class ol 1954 WE. the Seniors of University High school, being conceited enough to believe ire are of sound mind and body, do hereby relinquish our few claims to fame to the following persons: Maleic Plank leaves Jane l iDu and goes home to weep. Bill Kicbcrt gives his model “T to Florence Mcllcn and Ev Meyers. Boh Spaeth wills his Beau Bruminel gallantry to Lindlcy Sullivan. Patty Gradwohl gives James and the new Packard to the hitch-hikers.

Gordon Bricrly bequeathes his ability to understand science to Christian Rondcstvcdt. Anne Boardman leaves her father to run the school for another twenty years. Peggy Christison wills her wim, wigor, and witality to Helen Ciould. Gould Johnson gives his extraordinary watch to Gordy Sinclair, so now Gordy has no excuse for Ixing late to chemistry. Henry Bardin leaves his paint box anti posters to the Art Club. Agnes Schaaf wills her grace and success in toe dancing to Laurinc Tibbetts. Boh DeMott leaves his complexion to the Palmolive Soap Company after careful consideration. Bud Johnson, who bequeathes his conquests in Northrop and Oak Hall to Bill Rhodes, now wants Martha back.

Although several students did not appear to begin the eighth grade work following the vacation, this loss was made up and surpassed by the addition of new pupils. The class enrollment was then fifty-six. When school suited in September, 1932. only a few of the previous group were missing. At that time the Freshman class was one of the largest in the school with seventy-four members. At present our class is composed of seventy-eight pupils. The great success of the skating party held during our Freshman year resulted in a similar party on February third. 1934. A dancing party was given in the University Y. M. C. A. on February 21. In the tenth grade approximately twenty-seven of the boys participated in athletics which include football, basketball, track, and swimming. Of these, two have won letters— Boh Rculcr, football, and Walter Smith, swimming. The girls of the class did not take pan in sports as extensively as the hoys, hut they were able to hold their own against other classes in field hockey, basketball, and swimming. The class was also ably represented in other extra-curricular activities such as Dramatic Club, Choral Club, Boys' U Club, Girls U Club, Tech Club, Radio Club, and Stamp Club. Several were reporters for the Breeze.” I 22] T II E it I S It I I. A : : U N I V E K S I T II I ; II S c: II O O I. IU k How Mickel, link-la . I tarn a.

They also attended the U High Homecoming on October twenty-seventh. 1933. Prior to this such an invitation had not been extended to junior high football boys. Naturally the boys appreciated the honor. Although the girls are not as active in sports, they arc not by any means outdone in other fields by the boys. The president and several other officers oi the Girls Club were elected from the Freshmen.

We have members from both of the Twin Cities. Our adviser, Mr. Ben Lund-quist, is much interested in all that we do. The eighth grade is active in all the Junior High School activities. Most of the officers of the Tech Club are eighth graders. We have no president or vice-president for Mr. Lundquist says it is too silly. This year, the eighth grade has put on an assembly and taken a big part in the Mid-Year Production. Some of the hoys and girls l� elong to the Stamp Club too.—Jot; Pac.bkkopf. CilKl.s The eighth grade girls seem to have made a place for themselves in spite of the envy of their superiors. They were quite prominent in the girls swimming meet with Peggy Howe winning one race, and Natalie Kuchn, Jean Moreau, Charlotte Brings. Marion Hardcastlc. and Alice Lyman doing some exceptional diving. Then there came a time when they were all determined not to buy Home He. books. I iowever, when the teacher told them to open their l ooks everyone opened her own. But the event was the Junior High play, given almost entirely by the eighth grade and a goodly part of the audience was fellow classmates. Throughout the year the eighth grade girls have been strong supporters of other school activities such as football, basketball, and sunlights.—Jean Hi nt.

But by the aid of the hig brothers and sisters as they arc called, who had been here for a number of years, we were shown about and introduced to many fellows anil girls. Action was scarce in the first quarter of the year, but the members arc gradually getting acquainted with the different ways and entertainments that float about the campus. The teachers of the seventh grade have brought about the spirit to a high extent, but there is more of it yet to come. There were a few clashes in gym but they were just in tun. All the boys are good sports. Our gym teacher has hcl|x'd to have peace reign. Football this year was sort of exciting to the audience as well as the players because the two fine coaches made up many plays. But after a hard fought battle, Joe Pagenkopf’s team won. The blue ribbons were pinned on in assembly amid much cheering and clapping. Basketball was just as | opular and Jack Rhodes’ team won. The players were Jack Rhodes, John MeGibbon, Art McNce, Martin Nordiand, and Bob Barnum.—Joe Spraika. Girls The beginning of the last term harbored twenty-two seventh graders varying in size, differing in moods from inquisitive to shy, but all with an eye to the future and an ambition to “make good.” They began by electing Samuel I lobart president, and Joseph Sprafka as secretary. On Tuesday, February twentieth. I‘ 34, the seventh grade put on two plays, one concerning Abraham Lincoln, and the other our first president. George Washington. The girls gave a tea for their mothers on Tuesday, February twenty-seventh, after school. —Natalie Kubhn.

Flovd DRAGOMAN became an organization at University High School in the spring of 1931. The first members were selected by the faculty from a list of Junior and Senior boys which was submitted by the Senior 1 ligh Senate. They were chosen according to their qualifications of leadership, character, and service. It is upon these merits that all Dragomen are elected. The duty of Dragoman is to encourage active participation in all recognized activities of the school and improve them by their action and influence. The social and business problems of Dragoman are discussed at the regular monthly meetings, and although Dragoman does not act in a body in solving the difficulties which arise about school, its members do much individually in assisting the students in cooperating with the administration. During the winter quarter, it is the custom ot Dragoman to hold an alumni banquet, at which the new members are initiated, and officially become Dragomen. The members elected this year were Jack Kuchn, Daniel Jones, Robert Gates, Richard Reulcr, Robert Spaeth. Donald Ferguson, Charles Levinson, Warren York, and Jack Andrews. These boys were received into the organization at a banquet held at the Hotel Lowry in St. Paul on January twenty-fourth. 1934. T IIE It I S It I I.

Girls' U Cluk Dorothy Rosbnwald - Betty Ritchie - - Frances Krickson Helen Lathrop (Miss Mildred Lee Miss Josephine Dickson THE purpose of the University High School Girls' U Club is to create a spirit of sportsmanship, to further good health, anti to stimulate an interest in recreation and sports. Any girl in the Senior High who is interested and has the ability to pass certain requirements may become a member. In order to do this and secure her “U,” a girl must have earned at least one hundred and eighty points from the individual point system, maintained a scholastic average of C, and attended play hour, at least seventy per cent of the time, for two quarters. Once a member, a girl may continue and earn her “I I, “S, and large “U.” However, no member may maintain her membership, if she fails to pay her dues by a certain time, if she docs not attend play hour at least seventy per cent of the time for one quarter, or if she docs not earn a minimum of one hundred points each year, fifty of which must be earned outside of play hour. Play hour is held twice a week throughout all three quarters of the year. Soccer, or spccdball, a combination of soccer anil basketball, is played during the fall quarter; basketball is played during the winter quarter; tennis or baseball are played during the spring quarter. At the end of each quarter, class teams arc chosen and everyone takes part in an all-class tournament. Although the club is primarily an athletic organization, and its members enjoy play hour and their other athletic activities, luncheon meetings arc held frequently. There is also one regular social meeting each quarter. In the fall this was held in the form of an informal initiation and a formal initiation banquet. 133 1 President -Vice-President -Secretary -Treasurer - Advisers T II E II I S II I I.

The club has Ixren active as a group lor two years, having been but an honorary organization l cforc. The chief aim of the club is to promote all school athletics. The past year was started off in grand style; all football and basketball games received much publicity and a marked increase was shown in the sale of tickets. A very peppy dance was given under the auspices of the club, following a basketball game on February ninth. The usual dinner meetings were held on the third Saturday of each month at the Minnesota Union.

Girls Club Cabinet and Council President............................................Betty Boyd Vice-President.......................................Betty Mack Treasurer - ................................Peggy Christison Secretary.........................................Florence Chapin Adviser.......................................Mrs. Mabel Wettleson THE Girls’ Club is composed of two organizations, the first of which is the council. This consists of the club officers and representatives of each class and forms the executive committee of the club. The second group is the cabinet, which is made up of the various committee chairmen, totaling seven in all, as there arc seven dilTcrent committees. 'Hie Social Service Committee is in charge of the donations of food and clothing, which arc distributed to the needy families. Several members of this committee arc teaching at the present time in a settlement house in St. Paul. The Friendship Committee sends cards to girls who have been absent from school because of illness. The Financial Committee collects dues and attends to other money matters. The Publicity Committee lakes care of posters, tickets, and advertising of all sorts. The Ways and Means Committee endeavors to raise funds for the treasury by conducting candy and pencil sales. The Entertainment Committee sponsors the social activities of the club such as Mothers' Teas which arc held during the winter quarter, and the Mothers’ and Daughters’ Banquet which is given in the spring. It is at this banquet that the officers for the coming year arc installed. The Program Committee plans the programs for the Girls’ Club meetings which occur at regular intervals during the year. The Clubroom Committee supplies the Girls’ Club room with comfortable necessities. Every girl in the Senior high school is a member of the club and is likewise a member of one of the above mentioned committees. Our adviser is Mrs. Mattel Wettleson, who helps us with our various problems and undertakings. It is due in a great part to her sympathetic guidance that the Girls' Club is able to play such an important part in the functions of the school.

Beaux Arts Club THE Beaux Arts Club was organized with the purpose ot creating a greater interest in and appreciation ot art. To carry out this purpose the club visited city museums, private exhibitions, and studios. Last year was concluded with a tea and exhibition to which the parents, faculty, and students were invited. The work shown consisted of pictures and handicrafts done by members of the club. This year there have been several unusually interesting programs. One meeting was devoted to the subject of glass blowing, when some slitles were shown in the Art Room by Lindley Sullivan. After the members had seen these, they went to the new Physics Building where Mr. Crienkc told and demonstrated more about glass blowing. Another meeting was spent at a Mexican Indian display. The Indians were working on their | ot tery anti jewelry at the time and it proved instructive to watch one of the Indian women weave. Because the membership is limited to twenty people, only those who show a special interest in art arc admitted. To become a member, a senior high student must submit some original piece of art work. There are also associate members, who arc students who have applied in the same way, but because the membership limit has already lx:cn reached, cannot attend meetings. When a vacancy occurs an associate member immediately becomes active, anti can participate in all Club alfairs. [37] T II K It I S It I I. a UNIVERSITY II l(. II S C II O O L |(mv Si mil. Jrffrrfl.

Debate Squad A REMARKABLE increase of interest in debating has been shown at University High in the past two years. Starting with four members in 1931, the debating squad now numbers nineteen, and is one of the most active non-athletic organizations in the school. Under the direction of Ben Luiuiquist, social science teacher and debating coach, the team had a very active and successful season, winning a majority of its decision debates.

The programs of the meetings are very interesting. The club features pup| et shows and educational speeches by different German citizens and professors who are touring in the United States and observing our school system. In the majority of meetings I lerr Lehman gives accordion solos, entertaining the students, who sing along with him. There is always novel entertainment at each meeting. Outsiders arc allowed although the meetings arc carried on mostly in German. No dues arc charged, the funds for the club being raised from sunlights and weincr silcs. The big event of the winter quarter was a party given for the German students and their parents at the V. M.C. A. on February tenth. Novel and interesting entertainment was provided for all.

This year Great Caesar..Hie Confessional, and “The Teapot on the Rocks were given at the Music Auditorium on lanuary twentieth. “Great Caesar by Walter Reck was a delightful comedy about a group of boys and girls who attempted to present Julius Caesar. This was cast with junior High students who played their parts well. Pcrcival Wilde's The Confessional was a play of a serious vein, interesting to the students because they studied it in their sophomore year. It was the story of a bank employee whose honor could not lx- bought. “The Tca|x t on the Rocks by John Kirkpatrick was the success of the evening. The story was of two girls who went into the retail tea business in that they started a tea room. The result was a roaring comedy.

Senior High School Girls Athletics INSTEAD of practicing for and playing off the annual soccer tournament in the Fall Quarter play hour, the Senior High girls were introduced to a new game, speed ball. 1 lowcvcr, because of the lack of a sufficient number of players there was no tournament in speed ball this year. The girls who received credit for coining out to play hour were: Tenth Grade: loan Rhodes. Eleventh Grade: Margaret Cilockler. Kathleen Heaton, Patricia Solhaug. Twelfth Grade: Ada Charlotte Pagenkopf. Hetty Comfort, Francis Erickson. In class during the Fall Quarter the activity was changed to field hockey. There was a little difficulty in getting the girls to wield their hockey slicks as hockey sticks and not as golf clubs. Shin guards caused some trouble and were continually getting lost. The girls learned the essentials of basketball by playing nine court basketball during the Winter Quarter. The annual basketball tournament was not played off because of the lack of regular players. The girls who got credit for Winter Quarter play hour were: Ninth Grade: Marjorie Robbers. Tenth Grade: Laurinc Tibbetts, loan Rhodes. Eleventh Grade: Roxanna Klein, Helen l athrop, Elaine Fraser, Phyllis Wesley. Kathleen Heaton, Margaret Glocklcr, Virginia Keithlcy, Ruth Kittleson. Alice Clortner, Virginia Pouchcr, Virginia Mickcl, Hetty Ritchie. Twelfth Grade: Francis Erickson, Hetty Comfort. Spring Quarter brought tennis, archery, baseball, and horseback riding. ▼ ▼ ▼ Junior Higl i School Girls Athletics DURING the Winter Quarter the Junior High girls had a rather varied program. A few of the girls were put into a special orthojxrdic class where they were taught to walk and sit correctly. The others were divided into two groups, one of which was given swimming and the other, gymnastics. Spring Quarter activities consisted of tennis and baseball.

I4 ootball UNIVERSITY HIGH again displayed the- usual power by sweeping through the season with five victories and one defeat, the latter with the conference champions, the Hopkins squad. The Curtis offense consisted of the big and powerful Robert Gates; the flashy blocking Don Ferguson clearing the path for the stellar halfback and captain, Carl Wartchow; Paul McGee tossing passes to the two sturdy ends, Palmer and Kuchn; the three big husky tackles, Hilkene, Caldwell, and Jones; the dynamite guards, Green and Rupp: and the brilliant center, Matthews Waddell. Together they successfully spoiled the opponents' attack. We want to congratulate Coach Curtis and his assistants on their excellent work in preparing the team for the football of this season. University High appreciates the personal sacrifices made by the boys and coaches in their attempt to regain the championship for University High School. T II E II I S It I I, A I N I V F. R 8 I T V II I ; II S C II O O L 1 lie Season s Record Hopkins Game UNIVERSITY I1IGII opened the season with .� defeat at the hands of a superior team, the I lopkins squad, but the material showed up well and gave promise of a successful season. The Little Gophers lacked the scoring punch although they drove the ball many times deep into the opponents' territory. This game was the test for the team and even though they were on the short end of the score they gave the spectators many thrills in their tricky offense. Wayzata Game University I ligh’s first barrier for a tie for the championship was successful when the team defeated the Wayzata squad. The Lakers' tricky offense made it hard for the Little Gophers and therefore gave much needed experience to the green backfield of the U High team. Captain Wartchow made the first touchdown and then followed with another a few minutes later. In the meantime Wayzata was not idle; they were sweeping the Little Gophers’ ends for substantial gains and by the time half was up, the score was tied at 12 to 12. In the last quarter the team finally pulled itself together and put across another touchdown under the supreme guidance of Captain Carl Wartchow. St. Louis Park Game Playing under the lights for the first time, the Little Gophers played true to the pre-season and gave the Park team the heating of their lives. Five Little Gophers starred that night and led the team to a 25 to 0 victory. They were Paul McGee, Carl Wartchow, Jim Caldwell, Sheldon Palmer, anti Bob Gates. The team was really clicking that eventful evening and nothing could stop them. Excelsior Game In the fourth game of the season the Little Gophers ran over the hopeless Excelsior team 33 to 0. Coach Curtis experimented with next year’s material. Stillwater Game University High’s next game was with Stillwater. Both teams threatened to score several times. With but three minutes to play, when the score was still 7 to 7, Captain Wartchow ran 40 yards for a touchdown to win the game 13 to 7. Mound Game The Little Gophers gave Mound a trouncing on Homecoming Day. The U High team made four touchdowns early in the game, so the substitutes played the remainder of the game. The Mound team threatened several times but the subs held them successfully. The final score was 24 to 12. All-Conference Selections AS an aftermath to a very successful season on the gridiron, U High placed three of its .. stars on the first all-contcrcncc Lake District team and another trio on the second. Those deservedly honored Little Gophers were Captain Carl Wartchow, William Hil-kene, and Richard Rupp, of the best among the Minneapolis suburban schools, and Dan Jones. Don Ferguson, and Sheldon Palmer of the second group. Dan Jones, another mammoth tackle, and Sheldon Palmer, a junior at the end |iosition, both earned their first letter at football, anil the quarterback, Don Ferguson, also played an important part in making U High's gridiron machine run smoothly. Hilkcnc was placed on the second team as a tackle in the 1 32 conference. f 49 | T II E Jjiy It I S It I I. A U N I V E R S I T II I G II S Cll O O 1. Standing ,1 r. t'urti . Lampland, Srdrr.

Basketball THE 1933-34 basketball season was not quite so successful as University High has known in former years, but the team, after dropping the three games with the Twin City High Schools, completed the season with a record spotted only here and there with defeats. Captain Malcolm Plank and the tall center, Dan Jones, were a very dangerous pair to any opponent, particularly when Plank was running circles around the opposing guards, and making shots under their baskets. Sheldon Palmer showed that he was capable of handling the job of forward, while Paul McGee, guard, anti Hob Gates, guard, also played skillfully. University High can well feel proud of the basketball squad, for this year Coach Curtis and his team demonstrated the true Little Gopher spirit of learning the game thoroughly and playing hard and clean to win.

Before long one of the best all around track teams in U 1 iigh’s history was busy setting new school records and bringing home victories. Captained by Bud Green and supported by Bill Milkcnc, Henry Blumberg, Bred Ked ney, and Willie Wartchow, the returning lettermen from last year, the U High cindcrmcn enjoyed a season of reasonable success. There were not many stars left from the year before. but the new track men carried on admirably in their place. U High has high hopes of making a good showing in the regional and state meets. The Little Gophers' hopes arc centered in: 60-yard dash—Beebe, Kcdncy, Blumberg. 220-yard dash—Green, Blumberg, Ferguson. 440-yard dash—Swenson, Serrill, Rasmussen. 880-yard dash—Swenson. Rasmussen.

Swimming THE Maroon and Gold tank team completed the 1933-1934 season in a blaze of glory, winning ten out of fourteen tank meets. The team this year was made up of underclassmen, with the exception of one senior. This season was one of difficult competition, and often the boys just pulled out in front in the final event of the meets. Captain |ohn McCarthy, John Beebe, Kenneth Pcisch, and Dave Brink divided honors in the crawl stroke events. Louis Quasi and John Moorhousc received recognition in the hack stroke; Don Meyers carried otf the breast stroke in his racing manner, while Stewart Swenson and John Beelx- usually placed high in the diving. These boys arc also the letter-men of the team. In previous years U High boys have won no recognition, whatsoever, but their defeating of the larger high schools in the Twin Cities has made them a formidable team. They are resjxrctcd in all corners of the cities. A new coach was part of the reason for the sudden spurt of the U High swimmers. The coach was Ralph Stedt. a University student, who was well liked by the boys because of his strictness in daily work. The team also worked under the handicap of having the Armory |kx ! only three times a week. Next year the whole group will Ik back with the exception of Stewart Swenson. 152 1 T II E It I S It LA j : INI VERSI T Y IIIGII S C II O O L Scores and Lettcrmen Football U High— 0..................................Hopkins— 6 U High—18................................. ..

This is what Mr. Curtis was striving for—to have such an interesting gym period that the boys enjoyed coming to it. The intra-mural season didn’t begin until the second quarter and it continued until the entl of the quarter. During this time, volleyball tournaments were carried on in the regular pcri xl hour. These tournaments caused quite a hit of excitement, and we even had a game preceding the St. Louis Park Basketball Game.

This little group which made up the first seventh grade in the history of U I ligh are now graduating. They passed successfully through the stages of squirt guns, spit halls, and giggling to become the dignified seniors of 1934. Several members of the little class have left the school since, but the remaining number arc the Pilgrims of this year's graduating class. Time, however, left her mark. Seeing is believing, and a hasty comparison of the above picture with the pictures of these people throughout the preceding pages show the metamorphosis of a happy-go-lucky seventh grader to a solemn, care-ridden senior. We venture to say that the photographer spent a bad half hour getting the group ready for this picture. Imagine the plight of the photographer now. when the greatly increased class arrived singly, with six years of experienced annoying behind them! We think that every reader of the Bisbila will lx- interested in seeing this souvenir of the effect of U High on its students. Time Marches On!! f 55 1 TIIE II I S It I I. A : UNIVERSITY IIICIl S C II O O I. Bisbila WI lAT'S in a name? Shakespeare asked the question centuries ago, and it was Christian Rondestvedt, the little eighth-grader, who finally answered. Napoleon met his Waterloo in 1815, the Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776, and Lincoln treed the slaves in 1863, all of which has nothing to do with the story. Hut during the early jiart of June in 1934 an equally auspicious event occurred. The Bis-hila was issued. Dan Jones hail curled himself cozily into a study hall chair, and was avidly reading the annual. Me read it completely through, meaning the sport section, and turned hack to the outside cover. The title puzzled him. Bisbila —??? The meaning of the world itself was not clear. At this psychological moment. Christian Rondestvedt trundled into the Library carrying an autographed solution of Einstein's theory under one arm and a copy of “Little Men under the other. Danny beckoned to Christian to come over in order to have him explain the significance of the word Hishila.” Christy, who had just finished explaining the fourth dimension to Mr. Bent, decided to give his brain a vacation by elucidating on the history and meaning of the name “Hishila.” Hut please. Dan pleaded, put it in good, idiomatic English' The first annual on record in this school was issued in 1919, began Christian. If there was a previous lx ok it has been destroyed. The 1919 copy was already called ‘Bis-bila.’ The first group to publish an annual at the institution wanted a title that would show U High’s relationship to the University. That relationship gives us practice teachers,” complained Danny, who was recalling his last encounter with one. “The University's annual had previously been named the ‘Gopher.’ continued Christian. Hie U High annual staff wanted their title to lx- unique, original and yet have a direct relation to the ‘Gopher.’ Remembering Minnesota's Indian background, they searched through old Indian files, and finally found the name ’Hishila.’ It meant ‘Little Gopher’ in the Indian language. Daniel unraveled himself from the chair, thanked Christy and after taking great precaution not to step on his minute teacher, walked out of the Library. He was hoping he could find someone with whom he could share his vast knowledge. Hear Ye! Hear Ye! WE want to take this opportunity of introducing a new contest.

I’m idlin’ you, mister! They wuz all for teachin' me French, comment alley voo,” and all that, but I sez to 'em, sez I. I sez, I guess I sj cak English good enough to stay here,” an' I sez, I guess when I’m queen you’ll Ik- talkin’ out of the other side of your mouth. An’ then what d’y a know, mister, the old guy went an’ popped right off, ya know, my cherry spouse. So I hopped a freighter for Scotland and the minute I got there they was more than firecrackers shoot in’ off. There wuz Lizzie, big as you please, tearing up trouble for all she wuz worth. So I rung Liz up long distance, and I sez, Liz,” I sez, if you cough up the velvet scat an’ all the jools when you knock off, I sez, “I won’t squawk. Hut. I sez, Liz, old gal. I’m tough. I chew nails, so if you wake up some night with a knife in your larynx you’ll know that's my autograph. So come across with the throne. Well, old gal, I’m signing off now, I sez. My three minutes is up an’ my telephone hill’s too high already, so I’ll reverse the charges, if ya don’t mind. I wuz figurin’ I needed some moral support, so I ups and gets hitched with Darnlcy, that son of a gun. Well I had a swell secretary, Razzio, an' me an’ him used to get together often. My old boy began to sizzle an' one day in he popped, bent on murder. He sez to Razzio, Ya Dirty Wop, he sez. say your prayers, an’ out came the little thirty-two an’ he gave it to him a-plenty. I wuz pretty sore at him, hut as I wuz already goin’ with another guy, Razzio’s fadcoul didn't make my eyes red. Well, my old man wuz havin' sjxrlls about then, so I packed him off to Kirk-O-Ficld. One night after I'd been to sec him, they up an blew the place with T.N.T. They certainly wuz thoughtful. They saved me all the funeral expenses. One day good old Bothwcll came bustin’ in an’ he sez, Woman, he sez. you’re coinin’ with me. So he picked me up by the hair an’ off we went. Finally me an’ him got spliced an’ what d'ya think, mister My people got all hot an’ bothered an’ started bustin’ up the party. Poor old Bothwcll went out on his car, an' they stuck me behind the bars. Then I wuz. all steamed up an' I sez to um, I sez, What d’ya think you're doin’ and who d’ya think ycr doin’ it to? I certainly pasted them down. I didn’t hang around that joint long. First thing they knew I wuz on my way to England. Well I went straight to Liz an’ I sez to 'cr, Liz, old gal. I sez with a choke in my voice, They done me wrong over in my country, an' now ya gotta help me, pal. She looked at me outa them smoky eyes of hers an’ she sez, 'Hch! hch! hch'' That’s all she sez. mister, just, heh! hch! hch!’ After that they got some letters I had writ to Bothwcll an’ they up an’ blackmailed me. An’ with Liz bribin’ the courts I didn’t have a Chinaman’s chance. An’ here I am. They’re sendin’ me up the river tomorrow. I gotta stretch of eighteen years an' in the end I suppose I’ll get the chair, but I’ll lay Liz among the sweet peas first' Well, so long, old boy, I needs my beauty sleep now. C’mon up and see me some other time. |57� THE H I S It I I. A : : UNIVERSITY II I ii II SCHOOL Advice to tlie Lovelorn LIDY Codiva Asphalt is writing this column for your benefit.
