Forlytix VALEDICTORY “An unexamined life is not worth living “ (Eij fioBfutary Ac alip fioarutary In a world ordered as is this one. wherein there is indeed no new thing under the sun: and particularly on an occasion such as the present, the speaker is in grave danger of falling into a barren repetition of trite sayings and worn- out platitudes. The earnest expression of a real emotion, the sincere attempt to answer questions insistent and ever-recurring in our minds, may appear but a shallow and theatrical borrowing of other men's thoughts. We ask our hearers to consider this before passing judgment on any apparent affectation in our sh- eerest utterances. At this moment, which culminates our high school career, my classmates arc faced with the necessity of deciding whether or not they shall continue for four more years in the well-defined paths of a formal education. Many of us. in particular those who find all too apparent the truth in that old biblical saying that much study is a weariness of the flesh —many of us cannot but ask. Why should we try to get an education? Is it worth the trouble? What is its purpose, and what should be its result? Various enthusiastic exponents of learning have made an attempt to reply to these questions in a very concrete manner. By compiling statistics which prove that the earning capacity of the college graduate is a certain percent higher than that of the comparatively uneducated person, they have attempted to deduce the exact value in dollars and cents of every year, nay, every month and hour of college instruction. Any such attempt to justify the existence of an institution of higher learn- ing must necessarily defeat its own ends: for the value of a college education cannot be adequately expressed in terms of dollars and cents. Indeed, it may be said that any course of liberal instruction the value of which can be ade- quately expressed thus, has failed, pitiably failed, as an education. It is necessary that we have good lawyers, efficient merchants, competent business men. Yet these are not the ends to which educational effort is chiefly directed. Our rather superficial conception of the purpose of education arises in great part from a materialistic confusion of the means and the ends of this world. It is a mark of the age, and in particular of the United States, that its citizens are over-willing to sacrifice themselves in the pursuit of certain things they call ends; meanwhile, as Pater says, becoming like thorns in their anxiety to bear grapes. Too untempered a pursuit of these tangible achieve- ments may result, indeed in a loss of the ability to attain to, or even conceive of. that higher end to which all these things are but means. It is this highest end of all to the attainment of which a liberal education should contribute. The purpose of a liberal education, then, is to direct one toward success in that highest and most difficult of achievements, the living of a fine and well- ordered life. Through its medium one may hope to acquire a clear and courageous conception of oneself and the rest of the universe. It should lead one from the observation of this undefinable thing called Life to a criticism of it. an examination of it. No truly educated person can be content to swallow the world like a pill. He must inevitably arrive at the conclusion that an unexamined life is not worth living. He must inevitably ask himself those age-old questions about death, and living, itself, and Life. He won't be able to answer them satisfactorily; they are unanswerable. But by facing them with courage, and considering them thoughtfully, he will find means to adjust himself to the Universe. In other words, he will learn how to live. That Continued on Pa e 205 Iljr iRflBrmaru SALUTATORY The night to which we have looked forward for four long years,—nay. for twelve long years, is here at last. The happy semi-irresponsible days of our high school life are now behind us. Throughout our grade school and high school, first our parents and then our teachers have, to a great extent, shouldered the responsibility of our education and our advancement. Now we have come to the time when the full responsibility is to be shifted to our own shoulders. Some of us will go on to the university, to prepare further for the special jobs which we intend to make our life's calling. Some of us will immediately go out into the walks of life and take upon us the responsibility of earning our own living. The attitude with which we approach our tasks in either case will largely determine whether or not we shall be successful. Some of us will go confidently to the agencies of our choice, while others will approach in fear and trembling and with a great lack of self-confidence. Those of us who enter any university will find ourselves in a strange place, with strange classmates, under strange instructors. No longer will we have the sympathetic instruction of our high school teachers who have watched us through four years of our development and have thus become personally inter- ested in us, but we will have to create a new place for ourselves, a new recognition of whatever merit we may possess, in a strange atmosphere and amongst a strange people. This will demand a stronger determination, a greater power of stick-to-it-iveness, and a stronger personality than we have yet developed. Those who go out into business life will find no less a need of these same qualities. Many of us are wondering how we can hope to find a place in a business world already so well organized, and apparently so little needful of whatever it is that we can do. The W. F. Hall Printing Company of Chicago, in one of its little brochures, brings us a word of hope. It says in part: “Of the many factors which make up successful business organizations, the greatest of all is men. Although a manufacturing plant may be housed in one of the most expensive modern buildings, and equipped with the most efficient machinery that money can buy, yet the intangible, dominating force supplied only by men and their intelligence must be added to bring success. The real history of a company is written from the achievements of the men composing it. One great consolation comes to us, however, and that is that we differ from these successful men only in our lack or experience. They did not gain their places at a mere bound, but were built into their business slowly and pains- takingly and with many a mis-step. Then may we go confidently to work, neither with too much self-confidence nor with too much timidity. We should make ourselves worthy of our hire, go calmly about our work, be never satisfied today with what we have done yesterday, and plan for tomorrow better things than we are doing today. We should strive ever forward keeping in mind the famous quotation from Melvin W. Fuller, Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court: “The real difference between men is energy. A strong will, a settled purpose, and an invincible determination can accomplish almost anything. In this lies the distinction between great men and little men. We, the Senior Class of Urbana High School of 1927, appreciating that the faculty of the high school and the townspeople of Urbana have, in a great measure, prepared us to meet these new obligations which we now must face, thank them one and all, greet them and welcome them to these, our gradu- ation exercises. —Donald Mackay. 1 aar Forty-tight s ah? ftiuirutarti ) i GLORIES OF THE PAST Ah, but it was a night of glory, that evening of June 10. 1927, when as seniors. 138 of us were rewarded for our four years of study and work by the presentation of diplomas from the Urbana High School. An elderly woman sat before a glowing fire, a group of very young people seated about her. Her air was one of reminiscence, and the children who knew that a story was brewing, sat quietly, waiting for her to take up the thread of her narrative. As I sat at the exercises, listening to the addresses by our principal. Mr. Rice, the incidents of those years passed quickly in review before my mind. How well I remembered that September day, in the year of 1923, when, shy and a bit afraid, but covering it with a coat of blatancy and cock-sureness, one hundred and thirty boys and girls, entered Urbana High School as fresh- men. In the following September, the greenness and shyness worn off, and feeling like veterans, we entered as sophomores. During the year, the boys' basketball team won the inter-class tourna- ment. and athletic ability good enough for varsity football, basketball and track teams began to manifest itself. During our third year, twelve of our members wore the U” and three students of the class of '27 represented us on the varsity debating team. Last and far from least, we returned in the fall of 1926 for our final year at our beloved school. Again, we were well represented in school activities, but we could not step to the fore in any of them. Our class stunt. Mis Cellaneous. although it was the best we had ever presented, was not given first place in the annual Stunt Show. Our men were still playing on varsity athletic teams, and we all did our share to uphold the honor of our school and class. All too soon, that last night came—and we left the school, never again to return as students. The Old Grad smiled to herself as she recalled again some details of her days at Urbana High School with the class of 1927. —Edna Polk ’27. 19 Z7 Fotly-nint ffioBrutarg STATISTICS After two weeks, three days, five hours, and twenty minutes of hard work and careful questioning I have given up the idea of putting before you the total height of our class of ’27. But being more successful in figuring the total weight of our Class I have brought together the figures 18.230 (this means pounds not tons). Of course the weights of Helen Heath and “Tiny Clark have been left out. If they were not omitted it would make an unfair average. (This census was taken after Dick Mitchell stopped chewing ears.) After counting, adding, subtracting, and crossing out I have brought the graduating list to number 138. This includes Ed Martin and Francis Blue. These boys have proved to you that anyone may have a good time and yet graduate in five years. Of the boys, ninety-five have had a good time while the other five percent are true athletes. Of the girls, ninety-seven percent have had a good time. The remaining three percent are hard to figure out. The athletic ability of the class of ’27 has been proved in every sport. Most of the U’s offered have been captured by members of our class. Porminent members of the basketball team were Freddy Franks. George Fallon, Henry Schumacher. Babe Pearson, and Joe Walker. Sutherland also played. On the gridiron we have Tarzan Kempf of football fame. He was about the best man Steve had. I know it is true because he told me himself. Jo William- son led the splashers to many victories. The class of '27 is proud of its artists. For example we have James Lync who displays his ability in drawing funny pictures in all his classes. Of talented artists we have Lauren Judy and Charles Lane. Lauren's greatest trouble is keeping awake. We wonder why they call him Chump. I have heard that Joe Walker and Carleton Williams arc great cartoonists but I have no proof. For individual honors we have George Cole as a singer, and Paul Ritcher and John Swartz as horn tooters. George claims he is the best of the three. Now that everything of importance is over I will tell you of the girls. We have several girl athletes who have tried to outdo Henry Schumacher. One of these is Marguerite Stephens. I hear she was trained by Red” McCabe. Audley Fulmer carries away the honors as a feature dancer. She has a graceful way of falling, as demonstrated while practicing for the Stunt Show. We feel Ruth Cranmer will make a very good old lady and a fine mother because of the way she has taken her part in plays. Gladys Freeman has almost established a new record for having taken part in the most school activities. Edna Polk has set a new record of having fifteen dates in one week. Our expectations of Frances Wilson have almost come true. For unknown reasons her interest has turned from school activities. Now after getting together all the fine points of our wonderful class we show you we have done our best and assure you we hate to leave Urbana High. Howard White ’27. THE CLASS WILL We. members of the class of nineteen hundred and twenty-seven having attained our object, that of completing our scholastic career, in high school, though somewhat fatigued from the incessant mental strain, but still sound in mind, memory and understanding, make and publish this, our last will and testament, hereby revoking and making void all former wills made by us at any time heretofore. As to our worldly estate, and all property, real and personal, which we shall have acquired or owned, or to which we shall be entitled at the time of our decease, we devise, bequeath and dispose thereof in the manner following to wit: First, we hereby appoint Miss Gertrude Biedermann and Miss Shoop joint executrixes of this, our last will and testament, in consideration of their kind efforts in allowing so great a number of us to pass out into the uncertain- ty of the future. To the Juniors we bequeath our seats in the assembly asking that they will hold them down with dignity and reverence. To them also, we donate all the gum which we have deposited under the desks in Senior English and History classes. Mrs. York. Miss Fay lor and Miss Off lighter bequeath their privilege of wearing engagement rings to Misses Lola McClurg, Ruth Rompel and Ruth Blackburn. Certain individuals have requested that we bequeath their personalities and traits thusly: Jimmie Lyne bequeaths his ability as a fancy dancer to Hugh Oakley with the suggestion that the best method to keep in training is to to take the reducing exercises broadcasted over the radio every morning. Ed Martin requests that Vincent Boyle act in the capacity of Aunt Doris in giving motherly advice to the lovelorn, through the columns of the Echo. Paul Ritcher bequeathes his Adam's Apple to Merle Hopson that he might with less effort retain the attention of the audience while speaking. It has been the special request of Mary Ann Carson that her ability to write love poetry be donated to Lorraine Pittman that she might the better express her affections for Charles. Richard Waggoner bequeaths his ability as a football player to Francis Conerty. Helen Smith bequeaths her right to question anybody at any time and about every thing to George Foster, feeling that this will be a great aid in his career as a newspaper reporter. Marguerite Stephens. Mildred Shuman. Francis Wilson. Frederick Barrett Marshall. Edna Polk and Donald Mackay bequeath their ability to have a good time at any place and at any time to Clarence Gleason. Ruth Cranmer bequeaths her alarm clock which always gets her to school on time or nearly on time to Lola McClurg.

The convention was inaugurated in the year 1927 for the purpose of bringing together the notables of the country. Due to the fact that the class of 1927 showed such remarkable ability, the organization of the great and near great was formed immediately after the commencement exercises in June, 1927. And what do you think, at the 20th annual session the 1927 class had a 98$ attendance. Only the modesty o'f Glen Dunkle and Francis Allen (Glen is probably on his way but has encountered a thought and is de- layed by deep thinking) kept the class from bursting forth with a 100$ banner. Evidently these two classmates have lost a bit of that self-confidence which has always been so characteristic of their noble class. Now these great and near great delegates, of course, were all of that class of high esteem. 1927, came from all the corners of the earth to join in the Urbana High School celebration of their greatness. There was George Cole who was the first man on the silver screen even to compare with Rudolph Valentino. He is continually beseiged with love letters from follies girls and other famous beauties but he has remained loyal to the sainted memory of Helen Heath who has become the wife of Fred Marshall, a now famous tobacco man. Even when a child Fred had a likeness for cigarette snipes. Francis Blue has become constable of Mayview (I always did say Francis would lead an exciting life. Lauren Judy, after devoting four solid years to the discovery, has. at last, found a remedy for sleeping sickness. More sleep. Henry Schumacher always insisted that he would have lots of dough in his older days and I see now that he was right. He is running a bakery in the outskirts of Tolono. Louis Douglas is acting the part of “Cupid” in the latest stage hit Eleanor Stewart, the Vicious Vamp. Charles McCluer is an understudy to Louis. Howard White is an enterprising young butcher in Colorado. I hear he is a regular town cutup.” Carleton Williams has risen to the heights of the world. He has become a lawyer of high standing. His office is on the 3rd floor in the Wrigley Building. Alas, there is Cathryn Colvin. What would the 400 do without her? She has a job on the Wabash Flyer calling stations. She says her vocal lessons helped to a great extent in acquiring this position. Milton Dewey who has been selling leggins for Canary birds in the wilds of Africa says his business covers slim territory. Dick Mitchel has become a stage contortionist. He probably has held many positions since his high school days. Mary Ann Carson has been running a bootlegging joint in Ogden for the past sixe years. She does as little publicity as possible, and yet a little ad- vertising among the right parties would be highly appreciated. Jacob Judy has been carrying on flirtatious correspondence with some girl in California whom he hopes is a beautiful young actress. Wymen Ecceles has found employment under King Ben of the House of David selling razors. Jo Williamson went broke trying to sell ice cream cones in Alaska but he expects to go back on a gold hunting expedition soon.

But careful research bared the truth Of ancient years to the present youth And truth is stranger far. you know. Than all the hectic tales which grow In fertile minds, or man-made plot— Imagined talcs, with mystery fraught; But we shall tell you whence 'twas got. And how it came to Urbana High. In those olden days, so long gone by. Before the white man came to dwell In Champaign County, histories tell. The wandering tribes of Kickapoo And Miama Indians lived here too: The Pottawanomies set their tent. And. as the seasons came and went. Returned to hunt the moose and deer Abounding on the prairies here. Before Urbana was a town. They brought their people, settled down. And built their tents near Main and Race Where Palmer's grocery grows apace. A little further down the hill There bubbled forth, their thirst to stoll. A spring of water, clear and cold. A comfort to these warriors bold. 'Tis near this old historic spot That C. N. Clark had a business lot. When first the white man hither came With thought this Indian land to tame The red men of the Kickapoo. And all the other Indians, too. Bore keen resentment: then they swore That they of sleep would have no more 'Till they had driven every man Of white blood out of this, their land. The Indian Chief. Chicagou. strove In vain: the white man throve. He throve in spite of trials severe While ever dangers hovered near Prom every hostile Indian band Who treachery against him planned. Then, when Chicagou saw at last There was no doubt, the die was cast: The white man must be made a friend. The struggles, fighting, all must end If the tribes of Illinois Were to live and not to die. He gathered his chiefs together then And bade them bring both women and men. To meet the white man near this spring. With Indian chant and tom-tom's beat The ceremony was complete. They buried a hatchet as a sign of peace, And they promised all their wars to cease. They kept their word, and as time passed on Urbana grew to be a town. The schools were formed: the high school, too. Was added as the system grew. One day—we do not know the year—■ So cannot tell it to you here— Some senior lads from Urbana High Stopped at the spring as they passed by To quench their thirst. One kicked the ground And heard a hard and ringing sound. Then they one and all would sec What this amazing thing might be That, buried beneath the hard earth's crust. Responded thus to his gentle thrust. They dug it forth and brought ti light The very hatchet you see tonight— Chicagou's hatchet, ancient, old. Whose legend hath just now been told. They made it a mascot for their class. And decided it should onward pass To each senior class as it came in line: And so it has. to this very time. But each class must prove its right to it By showing forth its power of wit: In mental contest, strong and bold. But not with weapons as of old. The classes met by proxy: I. From the senior class do cry A challenge to the junior clan Upon this stage to produce their man To answer in person for his class. Before, to them, this hatchet may pass. Senior: Well, five-foot two. with eyes of blue What do you come here to do? You little snob with your wind-blown bob. Sent up here by that junior mob! The club S. K. and the G. A. A. Demand her time both night and day! As time does fly. 'tis naught goes by Without her finger in the pic. She has a fear, within a year. The school would die without her here. Junior: Well. I declare, can I trust my eye— Do you really wear a tie? What's become of your shirt of blue. Where are those old coveralls too? Why is it you're running this bluff? What's become of your caveman stuff? If I could really trust my eyes I'd believe you're becoming civilized. You've always thought you're straight from heaven Just because you're five-foot ’leven! 'Tis a fact we recognize— 19 2r Fifty-lhrtt r ahr fioBrutaro H 1 ft (b That brains do not depend on size. When a thought he'd bring out from its lair He pulls upon a lock of hair— Until we fear, ah me! forsooth— He'd pull it out by its very roots: He gives a twist, and then a pull. Trying hard himself to fool. Yet he really fears he might be caught Bringing forth a brilliant thought. Senior: You've done quite well. As all can tell. In giving your roast to me. But the senior class Sits there enmasse For your roving eye to sec. Pick out your man. Do the best you can. And roast as hard as you will! I'll promise you Without ado. To give you a better one still. Junior: Wyman Rutherford Eccles Wyman found a license plate. 'Twas made, they say. in Ohio state— And though ’twas sadly out of date lie stuck it on his car! A policeman saw it thus one day: He said. My son. please come this way!”— Which did his pleasure mar! He felt so nervous, felt the need Of clearing up his brain with speed— But reckless driving brings its meed— There came the motor cop! So Wyman stopped his car right quick. Thinking the cop he could outwit— This helped the matter not a bit— This was no place to stop. Another cop arrested him Because his lights were not on dim— Another yet. it was a sin! Because he'd parked it wrong!— And now he thought, “this ends my lark — But bless my soul, he parked it dark!— This was too much: now. all ye. hark.— He'll sell it for a song! Senior: Elmer Curtis Smith He has many gaits on his roller skates As he goes circling round. In making dates, tis high he rates With all the girls in town. In getting rates for the Junior fetes For orchestras. I'll be bound.— He talks and waits and ne'er abates 'Till he has jewed them down. Junior: John Caleb Swartz “Well, blast the woman! I declare— She may be sweet, she may be fair. But hear me while an oath I take— I'll never have another date With her—no matter what you say.” So raged our John, one bright spring day— Not a one of us really knew What put our John in such a stew. But when his rage was spent at last He rushed up to this self same lass! He could no more resist his fate. And for a ride he made a date. They must have ridden quite a while They must have covered many a mile— For when Jack reached home in the early morn. His mother said with wrath and scorn— See here, my boy. you mark my word. Your next date goes without the Ford. Senior: Joseph Norman Hesselschwerdt Joey of Philo has filled many a silo!— And hunted and fished quite a lot— His eyes shine with glory, as he tells you the story Of all the fish he has caught. But if you ask later, how he came from Decatur He'll look at you with a blush! Now that would be telling, you'd better ask Helen!— And then he'd ask you to hush. Junior: Frances Mae Lakey Now here's a maiden all forlorn With a permanent wave since she was born. «She never goes we have heard tell to the beauty shop for a marcel. Perchance she fears they'd force a bob Or of her beautiful tresses rob. Her cheeks of rosy red they say Have been her own since her birthday. The color on her checks so round Was never bought by ounce or pound. Senior: Helen Jane Mumma She has a piquant little nose. With eyes of sparkling blue: Her checks as pink as any rose. And teeth of pearly hue. She has a fluffy wind-blown bob That says Come here to me! She draws from any boy a sob— A sigh of ecstasy! It may be Merl or Jack or Joe. She wins him with a smile: But soon she has another beau. Love lasts a little while. Junior: William Cyril McCabe Since Harold Grange delivered ice All football boys have thought it nice. To spend the summer on a wagon So full of ice it keeps a saggin'! So our brave Red” one summer's day. Was filling up his time that way. When along came Cathryn in her Hupp. Fiftu-four |fflflBnnary And said. ’ Hello there. Red. now what is up?” I am.” said he. and then and there He crawled right in by the lady fair! He sat so long the ice all melted And the ladies on the route all pelted The iceman s office on the phone— And said. We want to pick a bone— The time for delivering ice is up— While Bill goes calling in Hupp!” Senior: Margaret winiered Haven Winnie with the eyes of brown— A friend to every boy in town— If F:rankic won’t give John a date Johnnie doesn't hesitate To call up Winnie, hasten there And pour his troubles in her car! Not only John, we have heard tell. But many other boys as well. Speak in her ear with whispers low! They filled that car so running o’er That this last week 'twas beastly sore— Perchance some boy in his sorry plight By mischance gave that ear a bite— But you and 1 will never know— Whether or not this thing is so! Junior: Mildred Margaret Shuman Said her mother at the door. Now. Mildred dear, be in before The clock strikes twelve: now do you hear?” Yes.” said Mildred, never fear! But the party held so late that night That Mildred's heart was filled with fright. She really didn't know what to do When she discovered 'twas nearly two. So Jack, as quiet as a little mouse. Must go right by her mother's house— Slip a note beneath the door— Saying: Mildred won't be in before Tomorrow morning—She stayed with Ruth. She went to bed with an aching tooth!” Senior: James Theodore: Douglass A lovely lady in a play— So good, he nearly stayed that way! With a needle, a thread, a piece of lace. Jimmie really can make a dress! He made a beautiful negligee With a lovely train, for the boys’ stunt play! With a dress, a wig. a little curl— Jimmie makes a regular girl! Junior: Cathryn Dickenson Colvin When Cathryn goes to bed at night She counts her jewels o'er. A Phi Dclt pin all shining bright With twenty pearls or more: A Sig Alph ring with letters gold: A pin from Sigma Chi! And then the half has not been told. Ah me. oh me. oh my! Do you suppose she told each sir She'd love him till the end? Or did they give these pins to her As merely to a friend? She goes to Chi each week, they say. To learn to sing a ditty— But she brings a ring or pin away From this monstrous wicked city! Senior: Virginia Aletha A msbary When Ginny was a little girl She made a valentine. She painted on it pretty flowers And wrote within a rhyme: Roses arc red, and viplcts blue. Sugar’s sweet and so are you.” Then she wrote on the outside Where one and all could see. Printed there in letters large— For my family and me!” Junior: Jo Creamer Williamson Joey had a little Ford. Its coat was black as jet. And everywhere that Joey went That Ford went too. you bet. It went along on its four wheels. Its tires were mostly flat.— Its engine sent out ghastly squeals. But what cared Jo for that? One night it ran up the high school steps And through the halls to 401 — It climbed the flagpole, don't you see And the terrible thing was done— It hung that senior rag up there. It cut the rope in two— If a Ford behaves like that, you know. What could poor Joey do? Senior: John Albert Sowers Jack's the bravest of the brave. Nor fears the strongest foe. He plunges in in basketball Where big men fear to go! He never thinks of himself at all. Nor fails his part to do. But let him face a lady fair. Or three, or maybe two.— Then Jack falls silent all at once. His face goes blushing red. He steps on one foot, then the next. And leaves with nothing said. He earns his letters on the field And wears them on his sweater. But if he tries to make a speech— He can’t say a single letter! Junior: Gladys Irene. Freeman In her doth loveliness abide.

Coming directly from Pana after graduating from the University of Illinois he proceeded to produce athletic teams to cope with our many strong opponents. His first year was a great success but this year was even more so. His teams show a fight and determination which is hard to beat. He has set up a tradition in football in 1927 of not having an opponent cross the first team’s goal line. He has the punch and the drive that is needed to develop a group of boys into a smooth working, efficient team. He was characterized by one as demanding hard work and stating that loafers never found a place on his teams. “Foxy Lou. as he was called, after upset- ting the Decatur team, has been of great help to the school in general. He has organized the Freshman and Sophomore teams and had as many as possible out for all athletics during the past year, developing them for future use. Eugene “Buck” Schroth assumed the duties of assistant coach. Besides developing second team men in football and basketball he in- structed classes in Physical Education. While “Steve” coached baseball Schroth took care of the indoor relay and track teams. “Buck” has been here for two years. He spent his playful days in Effingham where he COACH Stephens graduated from High School. He was presi- dent of his class both in his junior and senior years, and graduated with honors. He also took many prizes, but was forced to put them back. He next came to Urbana, attending the University of Illinois. While in attendance at the University he also found time to coach at Thornburn Departmental school for two years. “Buck is well liked by all of the students and besides his coaching next year he will be assigned classes in Physiology coa h schroth and Physiography. For two years his “peppy” speeches be- fore the assembly have been instilling the old fight in the students, causing great numbers of them to come out and back their teams. W. ECCLOS, ’27.

Monticello never threatened the Urbana goal line. Both teams fought well but Urbana gained the advantage by having the ball in her possession most of the last half. URBANA O-MATTOON 0 In a sea of mud the Urbana team held the strong Green and Gold eleven to a scoreless tie at Mat- toon. With the dope against the Stevemen. and fighting desperately to keep the fast Mattoon backficld from scoring. Urbana twice drove inside their opponents’ ten-yard line only to be held on downs. Numerous fum- bles and a muddy ball handicapped open playing to such an extent that neither team scored. j. pf.ti-rs Stvtntfthrt Jonathan Peters played half back. He was the main offensive threat and most consis- tent ground-gainer throughout the season. John will graduate. Howard, or “Shorty.” Phillips also played in the backficld. His ability to block gained much yardage but his backing up the line was the feature in which he out-shone all opponents. He will also graduate. 1927 URBANA 3—ONARGA MILITARY 0 In gorgeous array, and with much pomp and ceremony. Onarga Military Academy visited Urbana only to be sent back crestfallen at the small end of a three-to-nothing score. The cadets played a hard game but in the last few minutes Mitchell again came to the fore with a field goal that meant victory for the eastsiders. The twisting, dodging midget known as Bunny.” or Bernard I-’itzsimmons. was a threat not to be over-looked. 'l ime and again he broke loose off tackle or around end for long gains. Bunny has two seasons with Urbana High and great things arc expected of him. George F:allon was a valuable man until in the middle of the season when he hurt his arm. He returned many punts and was a consistent ground-gainer. George too. will be lost by graduation. i rrzsiMMONS FALLON Stvtnm-four JEhr ft u a r mart? ) | , 1 ft- ft URBANA 22—DECATUR 0 Urbana 22, Decatur 0. That alone is enough to tell the story of the downfall of the highly-touted Decatur eleven. To date Urbana had shown very little in the way of an offense, but in the warm sun of this beautiful fall afternoon they opened a surprise attack that shattered the Decatur defense. Eulie Reeves, the Decatur flash, was stopped by the small Urbana tacklers for the first time in the season. Shorty” Phillips played well for the eastsiders. backing the line with a vengeance. Peters was the chief offensive threat for Urbana, gaining most of the yardage. Holding Decatur to nothing gave Ur- bana a clean slate with not a point scored on her thus far. ECCLKS Wyman F.cclcs played at end on defense and in the backfield on offense as a block- ing back.” His defensive playing was of a good caliber as he often threw the oppos- ing backs for a loss on long end-runs. He also graduates this year. Captain Red” McCabe played a tackle and well he filled his post. Red” in many games broke through the opponents line to smear a play at the source. He also opened holes in the lines through which our backs slipped. His place will be hard to fill next year. McCABti Stctnly-fiv (A vThr ftiuuutary ) ■ ft——— URBANA 20—RANTOUL 6 Rantoul was our next foe. The second team started the game and played the first half and during that time Rantoul scored a touchdown. The natives of Rantoul thought they had an easy victory as their team trotted on the field at the beginning of the second half, but little did they know that the first team had replaced the hard-fighting substitutes. Pearson and Smith played well for the second team, time and again repulsing the hard-driving Rantoul backs. A hard-driving attack by Peters and Fitzsimmons soon carried the ball across their opponents’ goal line and when the timer's gun ended the playing Urbana was again victorious. dunki.i: Glen “Ole.” Dunklc played a guard po- sition. When Glen became aggravated no opponents ever gained ground through him. It was a little hard to rouse the ire in him as he was prone to be lazy. His place will be hard to fill next year. Henry Schumacher was probably the best defensive man in the line. In every game Henry was always in the midst of excite- ment. He held up the center of the line and also centered the ball in excellent fashion. He was an all-star on the Big 12 team. His graduation will be a sad loss to Urbana. SCHUMACHER Stvtntv-iix Sogfutary URBANA 0—DANVILLE 0 All of the Urbana rooting section turned out to witness the all-important game between Danville and Urbana on the former's field. In a drizzling rain and on a muddy field Urbana outfought and outplayed their much larger opponents. Prast. the large Danville tackle, played well for the Thomasmen. holding his side of the line alone. Hoskins, the Danville colored flash, failed to flash and was removed from the game after being battered all over the field by the withering onslaught of the Urbana tacklers. Captain McCabe outshone all of his teammates by the aggressiveness with which he drove into the Dan- ville offense, smearing play after play before they reached the scrimmage line. MILLER Wayne (Shorty) Miller, though light, played a guard position. He played well as defense as he often wriggled and squirmed through the line to nail his opponents for a loss. Shorty was the only athlete to make the Honor Society and he graduates in the spring. Dick Mitchell, the largest man on the team played tackle. He was a hard man for the visitors to carry out as he used his size and strength to great advantage. Dick was also a kicking artist as he won three games for Urbana by three points. He. too graduates in the spring. MITCHELL StvMty-ttvtn s ahr ftinirmury URBANA 3—MELVIN 0 On November sixth the much press-agented Melvin football team came to McKinley field to engage the Urbana team in what was to be one of the most thrilling and epic football games in Urbana s athletic history. Flashing a brilliant attack of deceptive crossbucks and spectacular forward passes the Melvin offense fought its way deep into Urbana territory time and again only to be repulsed and driven back under their own goal posts. A kick from the field by Mitchell again did the trick and the Stevemen were victorious by the usual three to nothing score. CONNORTY Francis Connerty. the captain-elect. played an end position. In the first of the season he was pretty green but he soon over came that and all his opponents found him a rough man to handle. Great things are ex- pected from Francis next year. (Here's to his luck.) Marion Foltz was a valuable substitute playing enough to earn his letter. He could be sent in for “Red'’ or Dick'' without weakening the team. He is strong and husky and if he “pounds away.” as Steve would say. he will be a very valuable man next year. IOLTZ 19 Z7 Stvtnty-tight SoBPutarg URBANA 26—SPRINGFIELD 0 Coach Royal brought a team of green football players to Urbana for the last home game of the season. Empson. a small halfback who had been playing consistent ball with the reserve squad, was sent into the game somewhat as a dark horse. But when the game was ended it had been Empson and the scrapping Fitzsimmons who had completely outclassed the representatives from the capital city and piled up a total of 26 points and another very impressive conference victory. TOWNER Wellington Towner was a light man. weighing only 126 pounds. He played end and guard on defense and offense, respec- tively. Many members of the opposing teams will remember Welly” by his vicious tackles. He graduates with the class of ’27. Conrad Kcmpf. substituting for Dunkle and Miller, played enough quarters to win his first letter. He played a good, consis- tant game and came out of the line to run interference which helped to advance the ball many yards. He will be lost by graduation. KEMPF Scvcmv-nioc 19 ar URBANA 0—CHAMPAIGN 3 The blanket of fog and mist that hung drearily over the Illinois Stadium bespoke a dreary outcome for one of the teams that was to fight that afternoon for the supremacy of the Twin Cities and a tie for conference football honors. It required more than dull skies and wet weather to dampen the ardor and spirit of the loyal Urbana rooters, for long before the whistle had sounded there was a cheering crowd of eastside backers in the Stadium waiting for their team to appear. Both teams came on the field a few minutes before two o’clock and almost EMPSON immediately one of the most pathetic and heart-rending foot- ball games in the history of Champaign-Urbana athletics was under way. On the first kickoff Empson fumbled and Cham- paign recovered, putting the ball in position for a kick that Wolfram made good from the 30-yard line. Every time Urbana got possession of the ball it was carried deep into Champaign territory and on each occasion a fumble or missed kick gave the ball to the Maroons. Four times the hard drives of Empson and Peters carried the ball within scoring territory and with each drive the Urbana hopes rose, only to fall again as each of four kicks fell short of their mark. A lone three points, a gamely fighting Urbana football team, is the memory that will fill many hearts until another Thanksgiving Day and another Champaign-Urbana football game comes around. Carl Hmpson up until the Springfield game was the main cog on the third team. Then 'Steve'' decided he needed Peters, who had been doing most of the ball carying as personal inter- ference. So Carl was given a trial and made good, by making three touchdowns in the Springfield game, one of which was after a sixty-five yard run. Carl will be back next year and is expected to make many teams dizzy by his dodging and squirm- ing tactics. I Eighty I a hr ftnfinttury lop Roiv Wilton. Hrsiclschwcrdt. Long. T. Fallon.

Twice they defeated Rantoul by a 7-0. and a 14-0 score. Thornburn also fell by 76-0 and a 45-0 score. The high light of the season was in defeat- ing the Champaign Reserves 21-0 and in holding the Sullivan first team to a 0-0 tie. The back field was composed of 7'om Fallon. Smith. Long, Hesscl- schwerdt and Empson until the latter's promotion. These fellows carried the ball over for many points. There were no individual stars but rather the whole team worked together as one machine for the advancement of the ball. From this group many will be chosen next year to represent Urbana and great things are expected of them. Eighth-one I fiuBfutary OUR BAND The band should receive much credit for appearing at all the football games. Whether rain or shine the band under the able guidance of Louis Meier was always on hand to furnish music and to pep up the crowd and team. Jo Williamson, as leader of the band, performed quite well. He has led the University of Illinois band and will try out for that position at the University next fall. Between halves of the Champaign game the Urbana and Champaign bands gave a pretty demonstration on the field. Urbana completely outclassed their opponents in music, uniformity and marching. CHEER LEADERS Glenn “Stuffy Morris, and “Billy Newton were the Urbana cheer leaders. They were at every game putting pep in the crowd and teams.

Mansfield had already played a few games, and even though they were going good, barely beat the green Urbana five. 14 to 13. In this game Schumacher. Tom Fallon and “Babe” Pearson were playing their first game. Pearson did the best scoring for Urbana, with two baskets. URBANA 16—DECATUR 12 Urbana s second game was with Decatur. It was her second game at home and the boys were determined to even things up. The game looked hopelessly lost when the teams left the floor at the half. Two free-throws were all Urbana could get. while Decatur garnered two baskets, and three tallies from the free-throw line. After hearing some of “Steve’s” confidential talk the boys 0 Henry Ted'' Schumacher played a guard position all season. Whenever Steve” wanted an opposing star held down, the task was assigned to Henry, who usually did an excellent job. In two tournaments Henry was chosen on the all star teams. Joe Walker played the other guard most of the time. He was the scoring guard and in game after game he chalked up many counters. In two games Joe played forward, making an excellent showing. Schumackcr. playing in his first tournament, made the all-star team. Joe Walker was put on the second. came back strong, tied the score and then gradually drew away. Again “Babe” Pearson led the scoring with two baskets. When someone remarked to Crooks, the Decatur coach, that Urbana outfought during the second half, he said. “ Steve’s’ men are noted for that. PAXTON TOURNEY Fresh from their victory over Decatur, Urbana entered that Invitational T ournament at Paxton. Their first game was with Hoopcston. The whole team showed very much improvement and easily defeated them 29 to 18. They next played Onarga. a heavy favorite and possibly a little over-confident, and were beaten in the biggest upset of the Tournament, 13-12. The game was marked by the close guarding of both teams. walker Eighty-five I (Til ffioBrutartf URBANA 29—MACOMB 15 After losing out at the Paxton Tournament Urbana went on its longest trip of the season, to iMacomb and Quincy. The first game was with Macomb who found Urbana hot’’ and were beaten 29 to 25. Babe’’ Pearson and George Fallon each had a big night. Pearson scored five baskets and a free-throw, and Fallon six baskets and two free throws. Since Macomb was Coach Stevens’ home town Urbana was doubly anxious and glad to win. URBANA 28—QUINCY 19 The team next went to Quincy, where it still gave evi- dence of being able to make baskets. Urbana scoring 13, Quincy 7. Captain Franks broke loose and scored five baskets, and George Fallon repeated with five baskets and a free-throw. This trip was the high spot for the team, Schumacher and Walker playing very nicely at guard. ECCLES Wyman Ecdcs played guard in many of the games. He played a con- sistent game, never letting his man score many baskets or scoring many him self. He also played center and occasionally forward. Conrad “Tarzan” Kemp was the substitute guard. Whenever Joe or led were taken out Kemp was inserted and gave a good account of himself. He did not play quite enough quarters to receive a letter. URBANA 16—PEKIN 20 Pekin had gone over the country beating every team it met. In a thrilling and very dose game Urbana was nosed out in the last minute. 20 to 16. The game was marked by close guarding of both teams. Joe Walker holding Bruder, Pekin’s star, to one basket and a like number of shots. ’Babe Pearson was the only one of the Orange and Black team that had any luck hitting the basket, connecting with four, and one free-throw. URBANA 21—CHAMPAIGN 25 Urbana was beaten by Champaign 25 to 21 in the next game. At the half Champaign led 12 to 11. with Jack Sowers playing his first game and doing most of Urbana s scoring with one basket and four free-throws. Captain Franks was kept out of the game due to illness, which might have had a great deal to do with Urbana’s not gaining a victory. Eiohiy-tix SoBfutaro —:- - URBANA 25—DANVILLE 21 With a revised lineup putting Walker at forward, Urbana downed Danville 21 to 25 on the home floor. Walker playing for the first time at his new position, scored five baskets before he was taken out of the game on fouls. George Fallon with two baskets and five free-throws was next high score man for Urbana. In this game. Wyman Eccles was Schumacher’s running-mate at guard, and held his man scoreless. URBANA 53—MANUAL 14 Urbana’s next game was at Peoria with Manual High School. Joe Walker just could not miss the basket and practically beat them single-handed, scoring 9 baskets and four free- throws. Two baskets by Pearson, two by Fallon and one by Eccles was all the scoring that Joe did not ring up. Schumacher and Eccles held the opposing forward down, and at no time did Peoria have a show. Floyd Leaf Pearson was a very consistent and reliable player. While not starring on defense he usually accounted for a number of points in every contest. Leaf was the second high point man of the season. George Red” Fallon played center during the whole season. He was to be relied upon for points in every game, very seldom getting less than two baskets and often collecting six or more. In the Quincy-McComb games he garnered eleven counters. URBANA 25—CHAMPAIGN 34 The team next went across Wright Street to engage in a game of pass and toss in Champaign's noted hay loft. This game should have been played in Leal School yard. Eccles was brought up from guard to Fallon s position at center and put four baskets through the loop during the game. This is a remarkable record for anyone who tries to duck posts and keep from stepping out of bounds or hitting his head on the ceiling. Captain Franks played in his first game after his illness, but was not fully enough recovered to stay in the whole time. URBANA 30—MATTOON 19 After barely squeezing out a 1 3 to 14 advantage at the half, Urbana opened up and swamped Mattoon 30 to 19 in the last minute of play. In this game so many of Mattoon’s men were put out on personal fouls that they ran out of substitutes. After consid- ering the possibilities of continuing the game it proceeded with each team playing with four men. The combination worked well for Urbana as they rang up basket after basket. G.

This game was anybody's game up to the last few minutes. Jack Sowers enjoyed himself by gathering five baskets while Ecclcs. Fallon. Pearson and Franks had to be con- tent with one apiece. URBANA 25—MELVIN 31 Biers three baskets in the last minute of the play was enough to beat Urbana the night following her hard game with Decatur. At the end of the first half Urbana led 1 3 to 11, but the Fred Franks (captain) played forward part of the season until hard luck overtook him. He was Urbana s scoring ace the first few games but be- came sick and never fully recovered during the entire season. Jack Sowers (captain elect) the midget, distinguished himself in many games by his accurate basket shooting. He was elected captain for next year and ought to have a strong team for Big Twelve competition. last half marked by Melvin’s last minute spirit was too much for the Orange and Black. Playing them after the long trip to Decatur and ride to Melvin. Urbana could not keep up the fast pace set during the first three-quarters of the game. URBANA 10—DANVILLE 23 The team packed up to play a return game with Danville at Danville. Although trailing 9 to 6 at the half they only managed to score two baskets, one by Walker and one by Schu- macher. In the last half Urbana lost out by a 23 to 10 score. Although the team worked fairly well on defense their offense did not function properly. Four substitutes were used in an attempt to turn defeat into victory.

The home five fought hard to avenge the defeat at the hands of the Melvinitcs the previous week, but had to be content with a 25 to 21 set-back. Walker's three long baskets in the second half was the best offensive punch Urbana could offer. At the half Urbana trailed 9 to 13. Harshbarger. Melvin’s forward, scored four baskets in this period which turned out to be enough to eventually win for his team. URBANA 29—UNI-HIGH. BLOOMINGTON 30 The next game was the most thrilling of the season, and probably as exciting as had ever been seen on the Urbana floor. During the last half Urbana outscored the visitors 13 to 11. The opponents had piled up a 16 to 19 advantage in the first Maurice Morry” Sutherland played forward the first part of the sea- son. In the Paxton Invitational Tournament he played well, ringing up baskets, intercepting passes, and playing a good defensive game. He did not play enough to earn the emblem. Tom Fallon also played the first few games and scored points besides playing fairly well on defense. He will be back next year and although he did not win a letter this year he probably will then. half. Urbana was trailing three points when Schumacher scored a basket from past the middle of the floor just as the gun sounded. This ended one of the most exciting uphill battles ever played by an Urbana team. The scoring was evenly divided among the team. Fallon led with three baskets while Pearson. Doss and Walker followed with two baskets apiece. URBANA 14—PEORIA 38 In the final game of the regular season Urbana played against the best team she had ever met all season. Peoria Central. Equipped with a team of six-footers the visitors made the going tough for the Orange and Black, overwhelming them to the tunc of 38 to 14. Peoria, who had been the second best in the State at the State Tourney, could not seem to miss the basket, and with no apparent effort ran up a score of 22 to 11. F.ighiy-ninc T.

Urbana drew Rantoul for its first game which they won after a struggle through the first half. They then played Onargo. the team which had put them out of the Holiday tournament a month before. 'This time the team managed to get a big enough lead so the second string men were inserted. In the semi-finals Urbana met East Lynn, who eliminated her chances for first place by a score of 23 to 19. In the consolation game Urbana played Paxton in one of the best games of the season and was given third place. SECTIONAL TOURNAMENT Urbana was highly honored by being asked to hold the Sectional Tourna- ment here this year. T he teams entered were Westville. University High of Bloomington. West Field. Loda, Cornell and Champaign. Champaign finally won. thereby having the privilege of appearing in the state finals. The Urbana fans showed real support when it is taken into consideration that the Urbana team was not participating in the tournament. I op Rou- -Ca� h. Clem. Thoma . Current. Seely. Botiom Rou?

During the year they played against some keen competition. Roosevelt Junior High of De- catur. Champaign Frosh. Penfield and numerous local teams. The play of the team as a whole was good with marked improvement shown toward the end of the season. The squad ended by losing a brilliantly fought battle at Atwood Junior High in the Atwood Junior High Tournament. CD SOPHOMORE TOURNAMENT Gaillard Knappenbcrgcr captained the winning team in the Sophomore Tournament. To win they defeated first Davis, then Little Bob Little of nation- wide fame, and finally McClellen. This victory gave them the privi- lege of playing the Freshmen for the championship. They won trophies in the form of black basketball shirts with orange numerals on them. Smtiu-ont Hogrinarg FRESHMAN TOURNAMENT During the year there was a Freshman class tournament in which every Freshman in school was given a chance to show his basketball ability. Ten captains chose teams and then an elimination schedule was played through. In the first round of the tournament the play was not very fast, but in the semi-finals when Thomas. Redmon. Cash, and Danely met. the games were hard fought and fast. In the final game Thomas, with his four large teammates played Redman and his small men to a draw, and in the over- time period “First Team” Redmon sank a field goal from the center of the floor, to win for his team, the freshman championship, as well as the basketball jerseys and numerals awarded by the Athletic Association. By winning the tournament he also won the right to defend the Freshman honor in the Freshman-Sophomore inter-class game. BEALS RUSSELL WEEKS REDMON SCHRIEBER 192r Nintty-two EI?r Rofirutarg INTRAMURAL TOURNAMENT Among the many inter-class tournaments more interest was shown over the intramural tournament than any other. This tournament is the second year the tournament has been held here and it is to be made an annual affair. The teams were composed of one varsity player as captain, and six others chosen by him. The teams were eliminated until only Thomas Fallon. Eccles. Wilson, and Pearson’s teams remained. Fallon then beat Eccles and Wilson beat Pear- son. These two then finished out the tournament in a hard game in which T. Fallon finally won. The personnel of the winning team was engraved on a shield which has two more panels yet to be engraved. REA Wood CRUMB CLEM T. FALLON BATEMAN Ninttv-thrtt ATHLETICS OF URBANA HIGH During the year much interest was shown in all branches of athletics as can easily be seen by a few statistics. When school started about seventy football aspirants were given suits. In a few weeks this number had dwindled down to approximately fifty. Out of this number four teams were made. The second team always accompanied the first team on all trips, as did the third and fourth teams. In basketball a large number of men reported at the first practice. Twelve were used on the first squad and taken on all trips. Twelve were on the reserve squad. On the Freshman squad were twelve men. ten of whom went on all their trips. About thirty reported for track every day. Of these twenty were taken on all the trips except to Peoria, where only ten went. In baseball twenty men reported each day. In the games about fifteen dressed and went on all the trips. Twelve men comprised the swimming squad. Of these, eight took all the trips. By glancing over these figures it can easily be seen that Urbana has an energetic group of athletes. TWO THREE-LETTER MEN Of the many athletes in the Urbana High the most versatile in winning letters were George Fallon and Henry Schumacher. Both these men have received three major letters. George received his chevrons in football, basketball and baseball, while Ted was awarded the colors in football, basketball and track. Ted was an excellent athlete, excelling in every sport he entered. By some he was termed an all-state center in football. Again his name appeared on the all-star teams in several tournaments. He qualified in the state finals held at the Stadium in the high hurdles. George, while not having the ability of Ted. worked hard in all sports and was a very valuable and consistent player. He was high-point man of the season in basketball. Ninttijfour CAPTAIN GLENN DUNKLI s ahr Rub rut ary I op Rou' Adams. Clark. Shannon. Baldw in. Neely. Christopher. Middle Rau:— Pickett. Schumacher.

This year the East-siders entered a relay team in four relay events and placed in each of them. Second in the medley, fourth in the half- mile. fourth in the quarter-mile, and first in the two-mile. In the two-mile event a new record was established. The following week the squad went to Peoria for the Bradley track meet and at that meet placed well up among the leaders. A first and second in the quarter-mile were the only points gathered in individual events, and the medley team placed second to Streator in the relays. Dale Long, fresh from Vermillion Grove was one of Ur- bana's most reliable and consistent track stars. Mis specialty was the 880-yard run and he placed in every meet he partici- pated in. He was fourth at Northwestern National Interscho- lastics. third in the district meet, fourth at Bradley, and broke the tape, a winner, in the Conference meet. He also was a member of the two-mile relay team that broke the record by thirty seconds, at Millikin. 19 27 LONG Kinttu-stvtn SuButtaro l S— —i HESSELSCHWERDT THE CONFERENCE MEET Given only an outside chance to place. Urbana presented a balanced team of track that upset the dope and won for the second successive year a championship in the Big Twelve track and field meet at Decatur. There were no stars nor outstanding performers on the team, just a squad of mediocre men who were sure to place in most competition. A number of second, third and fourth places told the story of success. In only two events did a wearer of the Orange and Black lead the field. Clark in the discus and Long in the 880. The one-half mile relay team won third in the relay at this meet. Joey of Philo, or Joe Hcsselschwerdt. was one of the relay men. He either led off or ran as anchor man. His breaking away to a fast start or his brilliant finishes helped Urbana estab- lish such a fine record on the cinder track. He later developed into a good 220-yard man. winning this event against Cham- paign. Joe also was a broad jumper of merit, placing in the district meet. Nintty-tight aljp ftoBFUtary jjj: DISTRICT With even less chance to win the district than was given them in the conference. Urbana track men surprised everyone by winning at Watseka with 35V£ points, placing in ten of the fourteen events. Milford with all her stars, was not strong enough to over- come the balance presented by the East-side squad. Courageous running by Captain Dunkle was the outstanding feature of the meet. Dunkle and Schumacher were the only men to win firsts in this meet and again a series of seconds, thirds, fourths, and fifths won the meet and gave Urbana her second successive District Track Championship. Another of Philo s boys was Tiny. or Chester Clark. He weighed 230 pounds, and stood six feet and four inches in height. His specialty was hurling the leaden saucer, and he boosted Urbana s ever increasing number of points at the con- ference meet by winning first place.

In the fastest competition in the country, at Northwestern National Interscholastic, they repeated by placing fourth in the 4-5 mile relay. After the indoor relay season was over these men put their ability to outdoor track. They all made the track team and were very consistent winners. A keen spirit of competition has existed in the Urbana relay squads for years and this year's squad was no exception, as evidenced by the fact that at no time during the season was the personnel of the team the same. At every meet a new combination was representing the Orange and Black. — One hundred CAPTAIN GEORGE FALLON ®ljr UoBrutarg Top Row—-Stephen� . Pickett. Mopson. Kempf. Schroth. Setond Row Pearson.

In the early season's non-conference games Urbana uncovered real power at the bat in Marshall. Pearson, and Captain Fallon. In the field Sowers. Smith, and Pickett performed creditably. Fred Marshall was one of the few seniors on the team. He was pursued by hard luck as he was injured on two occasions and could not play. Vernon Burnsworth was the only fresh- man that played regularly. He filled the short stop position with efficiency.

Instead of a seven-inning game, as proposed, a deadlock was formed at 4 to 4. and the game went to eleven innings. Huffer pitched good ball but his support was a mediocre. In the Springfield tusscl. Urbana was out-slugged by the Capitol City lads. This and weak support behind Huffer's hurling was enough to give Springfield a 1 5 to 6 advantage. Champaign defeated Urbana 14 to 4 in the first of the three-game series in a poorly played game. PICKPTT One of the outfielders of merit was Leonard Pickett. He was rather inefficient with the hickory but his brilliant fielding over-balanced this weakness. Ty Cobb and Tris Speaker are not the only pursuers of the elusive sphere. Urbana has “Snap Smith.

The preliminaries were held in the afternoon and the finals in the evening. Swartz and Schaudt survived in the dives as did Cady and Crathorne in the back-stroke. Renfrew easily qualified in the breast-stroke. The medley and 40-yard relay teams also won the honor of competing in the finals. In the finals Renfrew broke the record to win the breast-stroke, lowering the time of 1:21 by five seconds. Swartz took second in the dives. In the back stroke Crathorne placed third, closely followed by Cady. After a heart-breaking race Champaign nosed out Urbana in the medley relay, to win the beautiful loving-cup offered for this event. Danville won the 160-yard relay in a walkaway. Urbana and Peoria Central fought it out for second, and after a hard struggle Urbana won by inches. RI:NI:REW Carlos Renfrew was the best breast-stroker that Urbana ever had. In three meets he set new records which will be hard to beat. He won the breast-stroke in the conference in the good time of 1:16. He performed at the National Intcrscholastic at Northwestern, winning his heat by a wide margin, but the time was not fast enough to qualify for the finals. iiUHDfr One Hundred Steen jRoarutarii WEARERS OF THE “U” FOOTBALL Connerty (Capt.-elect) Dunkle Eccles Empson G.

The society was organized at Urbana High School in 1924. Each year the school faculty elects the mem- bers from among the upper fourth in scholarship of the Junior and Senior students who are named as eligible by those in authority. Only five percent of a junior class may be elected, and a total of fifteen percent of any senior class. The insignia for the organization is a keystone with a flaming torch. The seniors elected in their Junior year are Mary Carson. Donald Mackay, Helen Smith. Edna Polk. Fred Marshall, Frances Wilson. Gladys Freeman and Margaret Besore. Those elected this year are Mildred Shuman. Marguerite Stephens. Renault Wood. Jo Williamson. Wayne Miller. Charles Brannock, Jack Swartz. Charles Lane, Thora Cole. Evelyn Rinehart. Paul Ritcher, Veneda Harper. George Cole. Mildred Dodge and Louis Bauerle. The Juniors elected this year are Mary Robbins. Leonard Pickett. Junior Hopkins. Robert Handchin. Meryl Sanders. Sina Bevis.

Its success was due mostly to the very efficient officers, who are: President, Sina Bevis: Vice- President. Marguerite Stephens: Secretary. Edna Polk: Treasurer, Mary Swartz. The association's treasury was supplemented by the selling of hot dogs and candy at the football games played on the home athletic field, the members serving as sales girls. Also an admission of ten cents was charged at the girls' basketball games. The first activity of the year was the girls' basket- ball tournament, held November 29 - December 1 1. The tournament was won by the Sophomore first team and °“pr � i d«n t‘ Junior second team.

Because of conflicting activities at the High School and the University, the May Fete had to be a June Fete. Spring flowers and lattice work were used to decorate the gym. The story of the Fete centered about a beautiful Princess. The King, her father, invited Princes from far and near to visit the land. They were to bring their best dancers, and the Prince having the most wonderful dancers was to win the Princess’ hand in marriage. Among the special dancers was included, a Dutch Duet by Betty Buckler and Helen Clark; a toe dance by Doris Meneely and Annolee McDougall. and a black face clog by Opal Spicer, Mary Louise Riley, Agnes Cole, Mary Hatch. Nancy Mitchell. Dorothy Tyrell. and Mildred Everling. The Seniors represented the Colonial days in America and danced the minuet. Senior girls were: Bernice Rankin. Edna Polk. Marguerite Stephens. Frances Wilson. Nella DeAtley. Gladys Freeman. Helen Smith. Mildred Shu- man. Florence Reece. Edna Ebert. Hazel Gordon. Doris Jack. Thora Cole and Eleanor Stewart. The May Queen.

SoBPUtaro GIRLS BASKETBALL After three or four weeks of practice under the coaching of Miss Blackburn a Girls’ Basketball Tournament was held. An elimination tournament was not held: instead every team played every other team twice, and the two teams having the most victories played for the championship. The tournament started on November 28 with the Juniors winning from the Seniors by a score of 18 to 16. The Sophomores also won from the Freshmen with a 16 to 3 score. In the next game the Sophomores were again victorious, this time over the Seniors, by a score of 9 to 7, while the Juniors won over the Frosh 9 to 12. During the next game of the tournament the Sophomores received their first defeat, being beaten by the Juniors by a score of 15 to 2. The Seniors, however, beat the Freshmen 18 to 14. In the second game between the Juniors and Seniors, the Seniors won by a score of 11 to 10. The Freshmen were also beaten by the Sophomores with a 1 2 to 7 score. The Seniors won over the Sophomores 13 to 7. and the Juniors beat the Freshmen. The last games determined the standing of each team. The Sophomores and Juniors tied, each having won four of six games. The Seniors were next with three out of six, and the Freshmen last with one out of six. The following was the personnel of the teams—Seniors: Doris Jack (Captain). Edna Polk. Ethel Royer. Marguerite Stephens. Frances Wilson. Juniors: Blanche Veach. Doris Baker. Thelma Utterback.

A. organization, and or- ganized at Urbana for several years, has been unusually active during this past season. At the beginning of school it started things going by electing the following officers: President. Blanche Veach: Vice-President, Ruth Smith: Secretary- Treasurer. Luella Paul: Program Chairman, Pearl Tep- per. The Membership Campaign proved to be very successful for there were soon quite a large number of girls wearing the blue and white Girl Reserve Triangles. On November 17 the Recognition Service was held at the University Y. V. C. A. Our program chairman. Pearl 1'epper. provided blanch veach especially interesting programs for every meeting. One of these was a Christmas Party that was given for some poor children at the Y. W. C. A. on December 14. The little folks seemed to enjoy the party immensely. Much credit should be given our service chair- man. Josephine Galloway, and our social chairman. Gwendolyn Smith. During the year we have had several bean suppers and swimming parties. On March 4 and 5, the Girl Reserves had a benefit movie at the Colonial Theater. Officers for the year of 1927-28 were elected on March 23. They were: President, Blanche Veach: Vice-President, Lozclla Wyningcr: Secretary- Treasurer, Madeline Cord. 'The installation of officers was held April 10, at the Y. W. C. A. A Senior Farewell was given, and rings were given to those Seniors who de- served them. Some of our girls will be sent to the Conference in Michigan this summer.

One Hundred Eighteen Sfrg SflBgmarg ---------- DELTA SIGMA CLUB The Delta Sigma Club, under the able leadership of Sina Bevis. presi- dent. and Mrs. Hamilton, the adviser, sponsored several plays, debates and initiations. At the first meeting of the year, there were about ten members present, but the following officers were elected: President, Sina Bevis: Vice-President. Charles Brannock: Secretary, Helene Still: T reasurer, Merle Hop- son: Program Chairman. Frances Wilson. At this first meeting it was decided that a Delta Sigma Meeting would be held every two weeks, on T hursday. T hese meetings were to be business and so- cial meetings, alternately. The business meetings were to be held after school and the social meetings at night. Since there was no Literary Club in Urbana High School this year the Delta Sigma sponsored the Annual Stunt Show, which was one of the best ever presented. The Delta Sigma also sponsored all class debates, which had formerly been under the charge of the Literary Club, and put on the annual Boys’ Stunt Show. This organization also had charge of Dramatic Night. T he returns of the Stunt Show and the Boys’ Stunt Show went to the Echo and Rosemary. Probably one of the biggest things the Delta Sigma club did was to help the dramatic classes pay for the new curtain, which has just recently been bought for the Auditorium stage.

Paul Ritcher: Associate Consul. Helene Still: Scribe. Doris Meneely: Quaestor. Espey Willimson; Praeco. Gaillard Knappcnberger: Lector, Kathryn Leutwiler. The purpose of this first meeting was to initiate the Freshmen. The upper classmen had a jolly time watching the Freshmen struggle through the many ridic- ulous things they had planned for them to do. The next meeting was held after school, in Miss McClurg’s Laboratory, on December 3. A series of pic- tures were shown, illustrating the Ancient Romanic methods of transportation as well as writing. The pic- tures were explained by Paul Ritcher. On March 1 1. a Bunco Party was held at the home of Kathryn Leutwiler. Prizes were won by Dorothy Zink. Joe Dancly. Helen Johnson and Elmo Cox. The refreshments consisted of orange ice and cookies. Nearly everyone in the club went to the party and they all had a good time. During the week of March 15 to 22 the Latin Club had their mid-semester membership campaign. The boys and girls organized teams and worked hard to see which could procure the greatest number of members. The girls won the race and were rewarded by a party given by the boys at the home of Joe Dancly. This was the last big social event for the Latin Club of 1927, and proved to be one of the most successful. PAUL RITCHF.R President Founh Rom—Shannon. Veaeh. Bois. Brennen. Smith. Clark, H.

One Hundred Tmenty (Eljp SfitiBrutarg RENCH CLU The old saying. “Third is the charm. had certainly proved itself true this year for the French Club. This club organized the first semester with one hundred and twelve members, the largest the club ever had. The officers elected were: President. Gladys Freeman: Vice-President, Robert Little: Secretary, Marue Stock will: Treasurer. Robert Sloan. Miss Elder and Miss Offlighter are the efficient and interested advisers. The programs of this club have consisted of little French plays, talks by our advisers on the French people and French customs. Miss Nelson gave a very interesting talk on her trip through France. Plays were given March 30. April 27 and May 25. The entertainments, music and presentation were at all times of the best type. One of the best meetings of the year was the Christmas Party. The party consisted of French songs. French games and best of all the Petit Noel who brought good things to the good children and sticks to the bad ones. The last big social event the French Club gave was a picnic which was held in Carle Park on May 25. For amusement the boys and girls organized four baseball teams and amid much cheering by the interested spectators played baseball, perhaps not professional, but they all had a jolly good time. Since at the end of the year there was quite a sum of money left in the treasury, the members decided to buy pictures having French themes, for the two French class rooms. This year has been one of the most successful years of the French Club. Here’s wishing the best of success to next year’s French Club. —Marue Stockwill ’28. Top Row—Doughs. Martin. Sullivan. Pickard.

One Hundred Twenty-one JA a hr fioBnnarti f) j L ft F THE HI-Y CLUB At the beginning of the school year a few boys who were interested in establishing a good boys club organized a Hi-Y Club with Buck Schroth as faculty adviser, and with the support of Principal Rice, as well as the help of the Y. M. C. A. of the University of Illinois. The principles that the Club stands for are: clean speech, clean athletics, clean living, and clean scholar- ship. Its officers were: President, Milton Dewey: Vice- President. Renault Wood: Secretary. Jo Williamson: Treasurer. Reigh Bullard. The plan was carried out of having a meeting every Wednesday evening, when other school activities did not interfere. The meetings for the first semester generally consisted of: a short business meeting, a speech by some prominent person, and then an open discussion. During the past semester a supper was given every two weeks, and such speakers as Principal Rice. Superintendent Flaningam. Ray Dvorak. Coach Stephens and Buck Schroth gave interesting talks. The club organized both a basketball and a baseball team but was not very successful with either. It also prompted other activities, such as the illustrated lecture on the Passion Play of Oberammergau. which was given before a large crowd in our own auditorium, and a very impressive Easter sunrise service, held in the Crystal Lake Park, with M. T. Kennedy as the principal speaker. There were also several short hikes and fishing trips in the spring, and last a father and son banquet with Dad Elliott as the chief speaker. The latter meeting closed our program for the year. We wish to thank Mr. Rice for the support he has given the club, and also Mrs. Green for her splendid help in organizing and serving our suppers. Our good start this year has made us hope that something worth while will be carried on next year, and that Hi-Y will mean something to this school. Top Row—Davit. Callion. Hubbard. Mitchell.

The records of the past year in the music department are very good ones. The band made its first trip to Springfield the last of August for the State Fair Band Contest. A week before the State Sectional Band Contest the band went to Sidney to give a concert. The next week they went to Spring- field in hopes of qualifying for the state finals. However, they only placed third. May 5th the band went to Decatur for the Big Twelve Conference. Here they placed second in the band contest, placing above their old rival. Champaign. The Glee Clubs competed in the Music Contest at Decatur but failed to place in the finals. T he Boys' Glee Club has made several appearances: among those, the State Teachers Conference. Parent Teachers Meeting. Rotary Club. Association of Commerce. Methodist Church. Football Banquet, and in the concert at Sidney and Tolono. They won third place in the Conference Meet at Decatur. The Girls' Glee Club sang at several different Parent Teachers Associa- tions: the University Place Church and several other places. Altogether the music organizations feel that they have accomplished a great deal during the past year. Many of the successful achievements are due to the efforts of Mr. Meier. 19 27 One Hundred Twenty-four gflBfwarp THE BAND The traveling band, at least so it seemed for some, took its first trip last summer when the boys, under the direction of Mr. Meiers, went to the State Fair at Springfield. The first trip after school started was to Danville for a football game. Next they went to Sidney and gave a con- cert. to earn money to pay the ex- penses of the band in the different contests during the year. May 24 the band gave a concert at Tolono. The sectional for the state meet was held in Springfield this year an� : Urbana's Traveling Band made th trip but failed to place.

They were: President, Dorothy Green; Vice-President, Lorena Lincicomc: Secretary, Louise Holmes; Treasurer- Helen Mumma; Scrgeant-at-Arms, Marue Stockwill; Librarian. Louise Holmes. After a series of rather informal auditions, the Glee Club was selected. Several appearances were made dur- ing the year, one of the most successful being that of the State Teachers’ Conference. Having had free use of the Music Library, the girls feel that they have offset their misfortune in the Big Twelve Meet at Decatur with an otherwise very interesting and helpful year of music.

Last fall the Boys' Glee Club elected the following officers: President, Carleton Williams; Vice-President, Jacob Judy: Secretary, John Handley Treasurer, Louis Douglas: Sergeant-at-Arms, Maurice Sutherland. The Glee Club has made several appearances this year including the State Teachers Conference, Parent Teachers Meeting. Rotary Club, Association of Com- merce, Methodist Church, Football Banquet and pro- grams at Sidney and Tolono. The Boys' Glee Club was entered at the Conference Meet at Decatur winning third place. Beside the enjoyment derived from these appearances in public, the boys feel that they have received excellent training and an appreciation for good music under the able leadership of Mr. Meier.

One Hundred Twenty-ieven I aljr Soarmarg T RAMA Therefore, they thought it good you hear a play And frame your mind to mirth, and merriment. Which bars a thousand harms, and lengthens life. This, the second year of drama in Urbana High School, under the di- rection of Mrs. Hamilton, has proved quite as successful as the first. In many ways it has been more so. Mrs. Hamilton, our dramatic instructor, once inspired by success, attempts something greater each time. For instance the heavy drama. “The Thirteenth Chair was presented by the seniors two nights. The success was due only to the unfailing efforts of our coach. The first dramatic event of the year. Three Live Ghosts” was presented by a cast selected entirely from the dramatic class. Booth Tarkington’s Seventeen was also a successful presentation. The receipts of these two plays amounted to $375 which, with $20 from Delta Sigma, was enough to buy a new curtain for the audi- torium stage. The annual Stunt Show was produced January 14, and the Freshmen surprised everyone by winning. Besides these three major events there were two dramatic nights during the first semester. Delta Sigma presented two one-act plays. The Bride and the Burglar and Indian Summer. The other plays were sponsored by the dramatic class—those produced were The Third Man. and The Brink of Silence. The Boys' Stunt Show. A Full House. was given in the first part of the second semester—February 18 and the receipts, which were turned over to the Rosemary when all expenses were paid, amounted to $103. Delta Sigma sponsored a second dramatic night at which a collection was taken up to be used for a new drop for the stage. Dramas selected by Mrs. Hamilton arc always of the best type, and are without fail a success. Students taking part in short plays for the dramatics class have learned to appreciate the best in drama. Members of the Tower Playhouse are trying to portray life as presented in plays such as The Maid of France by Harold Brighouse. Joint Owners in Spain. and Two Crooks and a Lady.” In the future we hope and know that the Tower Playhouse will be quite as successful as it has been in the past. —Mildred Shuman '27. MRS.

The play is especially real and entertaining to parents who have fought, and are fighting what they call the adolescent problem. George Cole presented a witty interpretation of the character of Willie, as his role led him from the hard-hearted, sarcastic child to the passionate lover, passionate not only in the worship of his sweetheart's eyes, but in com- petition against his rivals, the last of whom leads him into childish disgrace, and finally pathetic resignation to a college career. Marie Rosenbury was Lola Pratt to the extent that she wore the clothes that only Lola could wear: and her rouged cheeks, her marcelled hair, and her painted lips, were Lola's. Barbara Stansfield. as Jane Baxter, the chief comedian of the family, suc- ceeding in pleasing the audience mightily. The boys furnished some good comedy, especially Louis Douglas and Edward Martin in a serenade, where an immature voice was an advantage. Ruth Cranmer and Conrad Kempf played their parts perfectly and were enjoyed immensely. The other members of the cast were also very good. Blanche Bell. Ow Hundred Thirty s A a hr Mmuntarti j SI 1 ft———iI CLASS STUNT SHOW The Freshman Class received the honors of the annual class stunt show this year, netting three votes. T he freshman stunt. “Three Cents Worth. was a skit based on a repre- sentation of the Urbana Daily Courier. Two members of the class alternated in reading items from the paper, after which the clippings were acted out on the main stage. T he scandals, the sporting page, the society columns, the comic strip, and other parts of a daily newspaper were cleverly represented. The grand finale chorus of “Three Cents Worth was especially good. Miss Mary Havard and Miss Lola McClurg proved themselves able faculty advisers. The senior stunt. Miss Celaney, was a brief and entertaining revue presenting a jazz orchestra, several choruses, individual dances and a one-act Shakesperian take-off. It was ably coached by Miss Shoop and Miss Bied- erman. The junior stunt, called Kidd's Pirates.” was an amusing “Piratical” sketch. Outstanding features were two Jewish comedians, and choruses of girls presenting well-coached dance steps. A remarkable tango formed the high spot of the stunt. Miss Lorinda Barr was the faculty adviser, and Lorena Lincicome trained the choruses and furnished the music. The sophomores presented a nursery phantasy. “Mother Goose Rhymes.” a playlet presenting each of the more famous Mother Goose characters as they were dreamed by two little sleeping girls. —Helen Stanton.

James Douglas, and Bert Miller displayed talent. Louis Bauerle, Glen Dunkle, John Heimbaugh, Merl Hopson and Wellington Towner were well adapted to their parts, too. The plot is as follows: A reckless youth writes ardent love letters to a chorus girl, an attorney brother-in-law steals the letters, gets his handbag mixed up with the grip of a burglar, who has just stolen a necklace from the mother of the indiscreet youth. In attempting to recover his plunder the thug nearly wrecks a romance between the youth and a society belle, by displaying the stolen love letters. Ottily Howell, a bride, believes her husband false because of his associations with the chorus girl. The maid finds the crook and notifies the police who promptly quarantine the house. Soon everything clears up— the pearls are returned, the youth and society belle become engaged and the newly-weds are happy one more: the love letters are destroyed and the designing chorus girl is left waiting for her next victim. —Joe Hesselschwerdt.

One Hundred Thitty-thre Cfjr Shifinnaru DEBATE When he speaks, the air ... is still And the mule wonder lurketh in men's ears. To steal his sweet and honeyed sentences. More and more every year the importance of debating in Urbana High School has increased. The tender vine has grown into a healthy plant through the care of Mrs. Hamilton and the coaches of the class debating teams. The year’s activity in debating started with the class debates in which the juniors were victorious over the sophomores who forfeited the final contest. The varsity debating teams suffered a set-back in the triangular debate between Danville, Champaign and Urbana when the negative team lost to Danville. However the affirmative team conquered Champaign which partly made up for the other defeat. Danville, with a win over Urbana and Cham- paign, won the triangular. Besides the conference debates, the Urbana teams debated with the New Trier High School teams. Urbana was defeated both at Urbana and New Trier. Ont Hundttd Thirty-four goarmarg VARSITY DEBATE AFFIRMATIVE TEAM The Varsity Debate try-outs were held before Christmas this year in order to get off on a flying start the second semester. Junior Hopkins, Jo- sephine Galloway, and Merle Hopson made up the affirmative team. After long and careful consideration of the subject, Resolved. That the Philippines Should be Given Their Independence. this good team won. The Affirmance 1'cam was forced by cruel circumstance to remain at home for the Danville and Decatur debates, in which they unluckilly were de- feated. There was a dual debate with New Trier High School on May 20. The team wishes to express its appreciation of Miss Havard, special affirm- ative coach, and Mrs. Hamilton, general debating coach, for their work in transforming mere enthusiasts into effective debators. NEGATIVE TEAM The Negative Team, composed of Robert Handscbin. John Swartz, and Charles Brannock. contended that the Philippines never were, are not. and most likely never will be. ready for independence: and on the whole succeeded in beating Champaign and losing a trial debate with Decatur. However, the success was not wholly due to the efforts of the team, as Miss Barr, negative coach, and Mrs. Hamilton, general debating coach, were the ones who developed the trio into a smooth working, effective team. —Mark B. Moore. Alternate.

The question was, Resolved. That Students Should be Classified According to Classes. After much deliberation the judge decided that the Juniors had won the victory. The privilege of meeting the victorious Juniors was won by the Sopho- mores December 16, when they defeated the Freshmen. The question for debate was, Resolved. That the United States Should Own and Control the Coal Mines. The Freshmen who had the negative argued that there was no need of a change, while the affirmative claimed that the present condition was bad. The final debate was forfeited to the Sophomores, making the Juniors champions. FRESHMEN JUNIORS SOPHOMORES SENIORS One Hundred Thirty-six ffloBcwarq PUBLIC SPEAKING The Public Speaking classes gave forth the best they had to offer and those people took a trip over to the Big Twelve meet held at Decatur. The only person to place, however, was Ruth Cranmer in Dramatic Reading, plac- ing fourth. The following people represented the school: Ruth Cranmer Paul Ritcher Merl Hopson Helen Stanton Dramatic Reading Extemporanious Speaking Oratory Interpretive Reading All of these people did their best, and very likely will bring home some points for the school in the meets in the future. Back of the representation to Decatur there is a force, and that is the Public Speaking. Dramatics and Debating classes under Mrs. Hamilton. Al- though during the year very few prizes have been won by the people of these classes. Urbana did beat Champaign in debating, and every one in these classes learned a great deal that will help them in their later life. During the year the two public speaking classes have been organized as a club every Friday. Each club gave a program on Friday during the recitation period and in so doing learned not only to entertain other people but also to obey and under- stand parliamentary law. Altogether the school year has been successful in so far as a great many students have learned how to face an audience and speak fluently and above all to have poise and grace in speaking anywhere. 4A i32r At- On HundrrJ Thirm-itctn aijr ftuBfuturu c4RT “Painting is welcome . . . . . . These penciled figures are Ev'n such as they give out. The art course of the Urbana High School is quite complete. Under the careful direction of iMiss Nellc Field the classes have taken up many different types of work. During the first semester the students made a number of articles in wood. Shelves, book-ends, and magazine racks were made in this fashion. Perspective drawing, black and white sketches and stationery decor- ation followed. Work in basketry, block prints and quaint dolls made of stamps proved very interesting and offered much opportunity for individual expression. Pen and ink drawing, oil painting, and silhouettes furnished another fascinating portion of the work. Some of the students carved ivory while others made rugs on the loom. At the end of the first semester an art exhibit was held in the art room at which reproductions of one hundred and fifty famous paintings were shown. The work of the second semester began with the making of placques. Lampshades made both in oils and water colors made a delightful window display. Every member of the art class made a quilt block for Miss Field, using Decora paints. Very beautiful handkerchiefs were painted in the same way. The students spent a long time on charcoal drawings, working for light and shadow effects, the best of which were exhibited in the lower halls. Drawings from life, drawings of still life, and copies of other sketches were included in the charcoal work. Traveling-bag tags, made of hammered copper, were etched in nitric acid, then painted and varnished. After this the classes made large drawings of the human figure. These were followed by drawings of the eye. car. nose, and mouth. Small head drawings in pencil or pen and ink. large head drawings, hand drawings and foot-and-leg studies were taken up in connection with this work. Some of the classes made tiles of cement with quaint little' designs on them. The girls in all the classes made dainty embroidery samplers in cross-stitch, while the boys carved wood. Everyone tic-dyed scarfs and hand- kerchiefs in batik dye. Following this, work in clay was done, and at this time many beautiful and graceful vases and bowls were made. Little hot-dish mats, made of chenille and waffle cloth, completed the work of the second semester. —Marchlline Gouglhr. IOTA ALPHA GAMMA President ...... James Lyne Vice-President .....

In February. 1927. the Art Depart- ment held an Art Exhibit of the reproductions of the work of Famous Artists. A Japanese sale and an exhibit and sale of Grecian handiwork was also held by the department. The annual costume party was planned and was held on Friday night. May 19th.

PRIZE POEM TO A YOUNG POET You were a misfit there. I always said You never should have gone: Your place was here, amid the flushing red Of sunlight streaming o'er the fields at dawn: Singing your little songs of sympathy; Indulging in your own philosophy. You've imitated tongues that tried to tell Of passions never known nor understood: That babbled buoyantly of hearts and hell. And Hesiod's children, dancing upon blood: They, in their cry for color, could not see T he sweetness of your soul's simplicity. The poignant ardor of your eyes is dead. Your face in lines of bitter wisdom drawn— You were a misfit there. I always said You never should have gone: The You. in whom such flaming faith was born. Is now a victim of mistrust and scorn. “Spiffy” Martin climbed up the stairs, two at a time, to his room. Entering the room like a spring breeze, he spied his roommate and best pal, Burt Mitchell. “Hi! there. Burt. “DT get any mail?’’ he asked. “You bet. T wo letters: I put ’em over there on the mantel. replied Burt. Spiffy picked up the first missive, daintily written on creamy linen. The reading of this one seemed to bring him great pleasure, for he smiled assuredly, as he laid it down and opened the second.—very business-like ap- pearance, with his name and address neatly typewritten. He opened it quickly and spread out the sheet. After a breathless silence he exploded: “Say. Burt. Listen to this: Blanche Bell, '26 c) T RIZE STORY OH! BURT! One Hundred Thirty-nine jRoBftttary ‘Mr. William Martin 1002 N. Moreland Ave. Wharton. Pennsylvania. My dear Mr. Martin: Please report at my office tomorrow evening at 7:30. Bring with you a written schedule of your activities of the past week, up-to-date. Yours truly, L. E. MARLOWn, Dean of Men.’ Now what do you suppose he wants?” Don't know, old man.” replied Burt. “Better think over all your past sins. Work up your schedule carefully: have a good excuse ready: wear your best duds: and, above all. ‘make punctuality your motto.’ as the Dean says, and be there on the dot.” Well, it’s true that I did do some rather wild and foolish things, but I can't think of anything so dreadfully criminal. But,—whew—what have I got to make out a schedule for? I tell you what. You get the rest of the gang, and come in and help me with it. At any rate I’ve got to get busy, and get busy quick. Now. get out! Get the other fellas and bring ’em up. An’ make it snappy.” Burt disappeared without further orders. In a minute he was back with the gang.” Many hours they worked over the schedule trying to decide what Spiffy had and had not done during the past week. At midnight the “gang” left, but Burt and Spiffy worked until two o’clock, whereupon the schedule was carefully put away, and the boys retired. Spiffy awoke the next morning with a heavy heart. He was absent- minded all day, and during his classes he kept thinking of the severe face of the Dean when he should hand him a suspension slip or a failure card. The day dragged on slowly. Spiffy could not eat his supper. However, he did not forget Burl's friendly injunction: Wear your best duds: have a good excuse ready: and above all. 'make punctuality your motto.” Conse- quently. at an early hour, he began the difficult process of dressing to meet the critical eye of the Dean. He selected his collar with great care, made the choice of a tie with still more consideration, and worked for fifteen minutes to get the desired effect. He brushed his already meticulously clean suit, sought long but thoroughly for a handkerchief which would fit exactly, in his pocket, and finally glanced at his watch. Seven-fifteen, plenty of time.” Great Scott! he had forgotten his schedule card. He ran to the drawer in which he had so carefully laid it. It was gone! Who could have taken it? But! Burt!” he yelled. Where’s that schedule? Burt, it’s lost. I’ve only got fifteen minutes to get there in. any way. Have you had it? Help me hunt it. Somebody’s stolen it. The Dean’ll sure kill me. Hurry up! Have you found it yet? Not yet? Hang! It’s not in this drawer, either. Did you have it. Burt? I can’t stay here all day! Have any of the fellows been in here today? I must have done it myself. Oh. gee! This is awful. You'll have to put these duds back into the drawers. I haven’t got time. Please help me hunt it. Burt. If you find it I'll—well. I'll be tickled. I remember putting it away in that drawer, too. Here. Help me look through it again. Gosh! no. Nt’s not here. Look some more. Look through all my books.

Goodbye.” It was a very hot and hasty young man who presented himself at the door of the Dean's ofiice five minutes later. The Dean himself opened the door. Come in. he said cordially. You must have run. You look warm. You are a little early as it is. It's too bad you had to hurry so fast. Won't you sit down? Spiffy was beginning to feel at ease under the soothing influence of the Dean’s pleasant manner. “Yes. I did hurry, Mr. Harlowe, he answred. It was rather late by my watch when I left.” After a few moment’s casual conversation. Mr. Marlowe came straight to the point. T he reason I asked for your schedule. Mr. Martin. he said, is that I am now writing a book entitled Practical Helps for Students.' One chapter in this book is devoted to the value of time. Therefore, as a type of one of our finest young men. I asked you to bring me your schedule. We are taking the schedule of typical examples of different groups of students, the poor group, namely, those who are not well along in their lessons, and not busy socially: those of the students who are fairly good in all ways: and also, the group consisting of the best young people on the campus. I am proud to say that we consider your schedule to be from a person of that type. Then we will look over all these, average the hours devoted to the different tasks, and activities performed and finally make out a budget of the time for the different necessities. The reason I wanted you to come in person was in order that I might explain the purpose of this. You see. I did not ask you beforehand, as it might have made some difference in your schedule. Is it made out as you want it? asked Spiffy. Absolutely! Now, if you're going home, I'll take you, as I'm going out in the car. remarked the Dean. I'm going home, and I'm sure I’d be much obliged returned Spiffy. In a moment they were speeding through the dark streets of the city to Spiffy's home. Making a brief farewell to the Dean. Spiffy sped up stairs and into his room. Casting his hat on the floor, and sinking into the nearest chair, he groaned, Believe me! I'll shoot the next bird that uses me in his book.

They stand there through every season, chilling the newcomer with an expression of stern, official serenity as though they were guards, placed there by nature for the purpose of shielding from intrusion a billowy stretch of sand land, which is known by some as the Illinois Desert. I said that the mounds surrounding this desert are. to the outsider, solemn and dignified in appearance, but more than once, in the day that I knew them, have I seen their countenance change: once passing down along the side of one of them I spied a man: he carried a spade, and his mouth was twisted in a peculiar expression which is never worn by men in public. I bis man leered up at his massive friend as he crossed its feet and with mysterious indulgence, that friend leered back at him. Two days later as the neighborhood broke up to return home after an all-day search for a young man who never again returned to his home, I saw that mound light up with the same mirthless glare. Also one evening at twilight as the faint strains of a calliope drifted up on the river breeze, carrying with it suggestions of hum and merriment. I heard those looming, clay beings chuckle and gurgle in tones too full and too personal for mere echo. That show-boat sank at midnight. luar One Hundred Forty ta'O fiuBrutarg It was in an environment such as this that I met and came to know Warner. When I first caught sight of him he was following a one-horse plow, which he loved—plodding along—or bouncing along, perhaps would express it more accurately—for one of his legs was slightly shorter than the other, giving his walk a swing which would characterize him at any dis- tance. His eyes were open and honest at first glance, but looking into them more deeply, one might detect something of hurt wistfulness beneath their exterior gaze. As I approached him he had stopped beneath the shade of a great oak tree which stood on the out-skirts of his melon patch. I made some trivial remark about the day. He nodded with no lack of friendliness, yet with no marked enthusiasm, and removed his hat in order to cool his head. His cheeks were a little lean and the oak leaves splotched his face with shadows as dark as his hair. T ogether we looked at the acorn-cups scattered about on the ground, at the huge piles of hedge-brush which had once fenced in the field and at the rugged sassafras shrubs whose feet were hobbled with dew berry vines. I studied his face. He must have read a question as his glance fell upon mine. “The first year that I was here, there was a horse beaten to death in that clump of bushes.” he said. My face contracted in horror. His did not change, but he lowered his head. Presently he raised it again and indicating a jagged limb of the tree under which we stood he added, still quietly. I helped hang a man on that limb.” For me. that softened the first statement a little. Are all places around here as horrible as this one?” I inquired. Well if a person knew the history of all of them. I suppose that they would be. one way or another.” he mused. After a pause he resumed. “There used to be neighbor- hood mobs here often. People didn't wait to settle a crime in court. These hollows and hedges were a good place for things of that sort.” After that, neither of us spoke until he addressed the patient old bay-horse at the plow. “Rested up. Barney? I watched them moving snail-like up the long stretch of sand. I discovered that Warner had many moods. One morning as I was going to the field with him. we passed a clay bank which had been washed out into sharp peaks by the rain and half filled with sand. I remarked that the place was dangerous. I got no immediate reply. I rarely did from this slow speaking farmer. After several yards, he muttered as though dreaming, as he pushed his hair back from his forehead and looked up at the rising sun. “That ditch may make my fortune. I believe there’s a gold mine in it.” Before I could express my astonishment he had continued. I haven't done any real searching down there, but I'm going to.” He became interested in his own thoughts. “Wish I could find a way of getting off this farm. It’s no place for a man—not for a man like me.” I encouraged him to talk. “What would you do if you didn't farm?” He lapsed back into an interval of thought. I got no answer from him that day. but as his gloried in the things around him. I knew that no other eyes as rich and grateful would ever look at nature, and I hoped that the gold mine was the illusion which I believed it to be. As I accompanied him home that evening he slipped his hand into his pocket and withdrew a large Indian arrow. It was a mottled grey in color and perfectly proportioned—a marvelous piece of art! The finder made no comment as he displayed it reverently, and then slipped it back into his pocket. This piece of flint may be worth several hundred dollars, some day.” he gloated, “but I wouldn't sell it for any price—now!” Continued on Pa e 148 i aar One Hundred Forty-three A u-hr liiflflfuturo k PANTOMIME Gay colors flaunting: Giggling girls: Awkward young school boys— Shingled curls.

YE BALLAD OF FOOTEBALLE In merric Urbana Towne when goode Principal Rice dids’t rule the school, there dids’t register in the office, a nidderling who was called by name of Oscar Scofflaw, verilly a crack-brained fellowe, to be sure. Now Oscar was in truth a lusty blade and he dids't no sooner put foote in the building than he was pouncede upon by Coach Stevens. Hilloa, quoth he. what are thou doing here, thou naughty fellowe? In sooth, but thou hast a mighty body. Busk ye to the gym. and see that thou bringest thyself to footeballe practice on the morrow.” At this he took his leave, but Oscar's brains were saddly addled and he couldst make nothing of this queere persone whose very haire stoode upon its ende. and who dids’t punch goode menn in the ribbes too often. On the day following this day Oscar dids t fail to appeare and the goode Coache waxed exceeding wroth and dis't send the goode Captaine to inquire as to his whereabouts. In a shorte time. Oscar appcareth. shorte of winde and redde of face, and cladde in tighte fitting jerkin of moleskine. Now. cried Louis. Seest thou those menne there tackelynge? Now. go thou and do likewise. Now poor Oscar dids't know nothynge of footeballe and he salleyeth out with his eyes shrewde shutte and so misseth his mann and dids't fall with great clatter upon the dustye grounde. No sooner had he collecteth his scattercde wittcs, than he was set upon by the goode Coach, who dids't kick him with muche gusto and with muche force and with greate knowledge of di- rectione. 19 27 One Hundred Forty-four ahr ftuarutary I L_ — - I “What now, thou idiot,” Coach Louis dids’t cryc, “Methinks thou fallest like a tonne of brickkes. Get thee up, thou nitwit, and dooc it right. Poore Oscar dids’t do as he was told, and though meetynge manye a harde bumpe and falle, he dids’t finallye accomplish it. But he was made to runne sygnalles and fallc upon the balle, and as he was about to cayve inn. was biddst to runne about the tracke two tymes at his fullest speede. This Oscar stcadfastlye refusede to do and he couldst not be mayde to move until he saw the goode mann Stevens approachynge with bloode in his eyye and a goode stoute boarde in his hande. He then dids’t get upon his feet and with maynye groanes and wailes he dids’t shamble arounde the tracke. There dids’t follow many days of practice and all were alike to Oscar who had not the brains to know better and who dids’t do as he was told and nothing else, and for this reason if for no other he was kept from the games that were played, and of which the most were won by the Urbana team. Finallye, when all the gaymes but one were playede and that one the greate Thankesgyving battle, and all the yeomen were working with much diligence so that they be allowede to play, but Oscar dids’t know no better. At last the greate gaymc approachede. but to the dismay of all. the guarde of the righle dids’t receive notice that he was inelygyble. Then it was that the coache cameth up to Oscar and said. “Scofflaw, if you were started tomor- row day think ye that thou canst hold them?” Yes.'' stammerede Oscar, for not knowing what was meant, he cared not what he sayeth. At this they wert dysmysscde ande tolde to report on the morrow. At last it was game tyme and as the whystle dids’t blow. Oscar seeing a strange mann approaching him he dids’t try to avoid him but stumbleth and dids’t fall in the very path of two other menn who wert throwne wyth muche force upon the grounde. “By me life.” cried the captain, “that was a pretty blocke to be sure, Oscar.” Back and forth the teyme waged with ever and anon Urbana the best and at other tymes her enemye. Finallye as the verye end dids t approach and the keeper of the tyme heldest his gunn aloft, a halfbacke of the enemye dids’t fumbyle the balle which did roll in front of Oscar who pickest it up meaning to return it to himm. But inn the very act of turning he dids t see from the corner of hys eyye three menn wert runnying is if to kyll himm. Truly but this did fryten himm and he dids’t turn to runn. “Methinks he doth fairly fly over the lee.” spoke an onlooker, “in truth but he is goinge.” Oscar did run until he did bump into the very stands, then turnying he percyevede that the three ruffyans had turned back. Then he dids’t give a wayl of horror as a greate horde of people bore downe upon himm and who dids’t hoist him on their very shoulders and he did give him up to his Savior as he feared the worst. But he was treated gently and mayde muche over and wert kissed by many a bonnie lass and he was much bewildered of minde as to the cause. And to this very day he doth live in ignorance of the greatness of his deede. —Johnathan Peters ’27. irn-li One Hundred Forty-five THE LILAC TREES ARE BLOOMING The lilac trees are blooming. The grass waves in the lea. But I cannot see the beauty. For my love has gone from me. The tulips nod their bonnets. Magnolias fair to see Shed fragrance for a heart's ease. But—my love has gone from me. No more I see the sun set, No more, the flaming dawn. For me. the world holds darkness. For me—all love is gone.

'21. c rs Good morning!” The voice was cheery, insistent. It brought the young girl on the porch to the white wooden rail about its edge. Good morning!” she called lightly back. Beautiful day. Mistress Mary.” Lovely!” cried the girl, leaning further over the rail. A vine which had climbed the round pillar and extended over the porch's edge was set waving by Mary’s motion and sent a shower of bloom about the young man below. Don't you think it's too fine to stay indoors?” I’m not in.” answered Mary, looking at the blue sky overhead. Come let’s take a walk.” All right.” and she ran gaily down the steps. Isn’t spring beautiful, the most beautiful season of all the year?” Mary paused to look about her at the bright scarlet, purple and yellows of the spring tulips, and to smell the fragrant odor of the violets and hyacinths. It is beautiful.” said Mary softly to herself. Then they looked off toward the mountains, and were silent. Perhaps Tennyson’s lines occured to them: It was a favorite scene that Mary had never gotten used to. although born in its sight. The narrow valley, the tall spurs of the ragged mountains which dipped suddenly downward into Red Gulch. Won’t you go with me for a drive to Red Gulch? Surely. I’ll drive you there with prancing Nancy. Nancy was a little horse—a shining black creature, both gentle and spirited. On llunJirJ forty-six a lip fiuBrutarg We'll ask Mother for a picnic lunch. This was what lazy, jolly. Jack was wishing for. Soon they were driving down the winding road, past the business center, along the street leaefing across the high bridge spanning the narrow valley, on down a steep hill, and turning sharply to the left, crossed a mountain stream. T hey were in the country with the keen spring air blowing in their faces and the smell of green grass on every side. The road sides were besprinkled with wild flowers of varied tints and tall grass that nodded in the breeze. The ground was overspread with vines, honeysuckle and sweet brier, weathered together. Jack, see that little blue flower:?” pointing to a daisy-shaped bloom on a weed-like stem. On and on they slowly drove through the woods when all at once they realized that the phaeton had stopped and prancing Nancy was looking back at them, as much as to say time to rest. They sat very still looking and listening and heard a bird sing a wild delicious song. Looking up to catch the note of the bird, they noticed how white and splendid the dogwood flowers were on the tree under which Nancy had chosen for her resting place. Mary introduced Jolly Jack to the best trees and gave him their history. There were squirrels barking and racing in the big trees and eating nuts from cunning paws. Here they left Nancy to crop the grass near by while they tramped the rough narrow Gulch together until they reached a big red stone ledge, an ideal place in which to rest and eat their lunch. There was a roaring, splashing water-fall near by. A chorus of birds kept high carnival for their benefit. Jack. I come here often. It s an old haunt of mine. Dirn’t I tell you it was Eden? Did I not say right?” Jack and Mary idled here until time for the sun-set glory. It flooded the Gulch and kindled the skies with scarlet fires. They watched the scene with delighted eyes. Now Jack you follow that path which will lead you back to Nancy and 1 11 walk this way. Let’s see who will reach her first.” Let’s.” said Jack. Mary, her hands filled with dainty blossomings and leaf-buds, was nearing the goal. She was walking slowly towards Jack who was hidden from sight by the tangle of cedar, vine and bramble. Jack suddenly spoke. Mary. I am waiting.” Startled she glanced up. caught the light shining in Jack’s eyes. The flowers which she had been holding to her face slipped from her hands down to the ground and lay there in the path between them. There was a smile on her lips and amusement in her downcast eyes which the young man could not see. Suppose we take the road ahead and ride around the other way home. It was long past sun-set when they turned Nancy homeward. They went slowly, reluctant to leave the beauties of spring in Red Gulch. 0 ■mmt One Hundred Forty-item - alip fiflBrutartt ) — WARNER S LOST LANDING Continued from Pa e 143 T hat same evening as he crossed the barn-yard he picked up on the toe of his hardened plow shoe, a ponderous horse-shoe from a bunch of burdock where it had found a secure bed. He hung it over the barn door. I was a little confounded for he had before confided to me that he had no super- stitions. He always worked out perplexing situations by reason, he had told me in his blunt way. He did not seem embarrassed, however when I asked him, “Do you believe in horse-shoe luck?” “Well not that of course, but—” he became absorbed in a snap on the horse’s bridle and did not finish. A few days later I noticed that the shoe had been knocked from the place where Warner had hung it. He stared at it for a moment, and then with child-like carefulness replaced it. On another morning as we tramped up the sassafras lane, he brightened at the spears of the rising sun. “This is a pretty good place to be after all.” he meditated aloud. I don't know that I want to leave it. There’s a lot more on this hill than a melon patch. I suggested that the morning would be of much inspiration to a poet. He drew a sigh. “Well. I think that I might have been a poet if my life had been a little different in the past. I started a poem a few weeks ago. but I can't finish it. He drew a grimy piece of paper from his pocket, unfolded it. and handed it to me. I read: “There was a time when I was young.” I turned it over, that was all there was on it. The man at my side, whether or not he caught my feeling of disappointment, hastily reassured me. “That’s only the beginning: I felt the rest of it but I can't put into words yet.” I. who had never attempted to write a poem in my life, wanted to cry, as I breathed in the new-born fragrance of a June morning. I became dis- gusted with myself the next instant and the little episode lost its pathos in my curiosity about Warner’s youth. When one day at noon, after his field lunch. I found him poring over a piece of paper in the shade of his big oak. I wondered if he was trying to add to his poem. He was not. He showed me a number of straight lines roughly joined together by his cramped hand. With the mystery and eagerness of a child he explained the details of the new corn planter which he had patented. I understood nothing but I liked to listen. Now just a blue-print—’’ he ejaculated, “and I’m a famous man—and a rich one. I never talked with the rustic dreamer again. He followed his plow as in a daze, until sun-down of that day: then he fell behind it. and a heart which had beaten, at intervals impetuously, for forty-eight years, ceased to beat. I dragged him to the hardened floor under that menacing oak tree. A faint breeze sprang up. coaxing from the baggy pocket a little piece of paper which drifted a space and then lay against the pile of hedge bush. As the sphere of fire dropped beneath the horizon, my heart stood still in awe and dismal fear, as the grey-green mounds shone for an instant beneath the blasting shafts, and then loomed in the dusk as relentless and foreboding as the destinies of horses and men. —Blanche Bell ’28. One Hundred Forty-eight $hi ftiuinnaru H tk FOOLING THE FACULTY Boys after you hear this yarn I think you'll about conclude that it doesn't pay to make your teachers think that you know more than you really do. I had struggled through high school to the last month of my senior year but I wasn’t so sure of struggling that last month successfully. You see we had an English teacher that was a regular terror and in spite of the fact that he and my father were old school mates I couldn't stand the sight of him. He really made us work our heads off. Every day we would either have to write a two thousand word paper on the heating problem in Equador or learn a dozen pages of the Sears Roebuck catologue. or something else just as in- teresting. I just barely got by the first eight months of school and every point counted in this last month. I'd almost begun to think that I would make it all right when the blow came. We had to write a story or have ten taken off of our monthly grade. I couldn't any more write a story than I could refuse a slice of watermelon. I began to think how tough it was to go to school four years, only to flunk during the last month. Oh well. I says to myself, Unde Oscar never graduated from high school and he made a million. Why couldn’t I do that?” I had entirely given up hope when a bright idea struck me. Dad had a bunch of old high school annuals around and all I had to do was copy a story out of one of them. It was about school time but I hurridly copied down the first one I came to. took it to school, and proudly handed it in. That evening I was patting myself on the back for my clever work when I decided to read my story and find out what it was about. I didn't read it. for my first glance fell upon the name of the author. It was my crabby English teacher whom I had copied the story for. I just grew kind of weak and said, Oh well. Uncle Oscar made a million without being a high school graduate.

Miss Rompel has been all a staff could hope for as an adviser. Her time and criticisms were such that could be but appreciated.

IN cMEMORIAM By Alphonse Stratton Well, well, it was way back in '23 that most of you seniors started in at Urbana High, beautiful, but—oh well maybe you didn't all start in '23. I have overlooked Ancient History in a small way. The four years have prob- ably made you more beautiful, but dumber, with the exception of (Shorty) Wayne Miller. Now that you are leaving, you no doubt feel downhearted, but remember that you are making way for the more keener class of '28. Out- side of that, your only other consolation lies in the fact that your children's children (if they come to Urbana High) will have J. B. Casserly, and M. D. Ricketts to pilot them safely through the turmoiling seas of Education.” That is if J. B. doesn't hitch up with Nelle Field. Stop and think, dear friends, what a wonderful combination they would make. She could continue with her art work, and he, with his magnificent vocabulary, could name her pic- tures with English that the English themselves never knew existed. It was forty or more years ago bfore J. B. ever heard of Urbana, when he fell in love with a girl named Olive. Olive was her name and she had still (up to that time) kept her school-girl complexion, when he chanced to meet her. It was one Sunday evening, he was with her in the park and he was struggling to express himself. May I hold your Palm. Olive. he sobbed passively. Not on your Life Buoy,” cried she gleefully. I fear my Lux. agin me.” tittered our hero as he happily strode off. I wouldn't have kissed her anyway till she had sterilized her upper lip. he mused as he carefully gargled his throat before retiring. He wouldn't have kissed her anyway if she were there when he did it. And anyhow she had called his attention to a runner in her stocking. It wasn't long until he had received his first coat of tan and a whisker had sprouted and he had me the one—Nelle. Nelle was an artist, an artist of no mean accomplishments. She already could tell a faculty picture from a zoological cartoon. As it were she saw J. B.’s picture in the Echo, and had placed it among those of the latter classification, when he politely convinced her. after much argument, that he was human. There isn't that romance? (Author's note) However though this story is life-like, it may not be authentic, as the subject in question, has no brotherly love for his biographer. Anyway, to carry on! After four month’s acquaintance he asked her to accompany him to the Urbana Orpheum. This was a wise move on his part as the chemists of the Bootleggers' Union were on his trail (and him one of their best customers). After the show he asked her what she would like to have him do. and she told him to go on the Water Wagon.” He took her literally and became a dust settler. at Mackinaw Junction. This lasted for fully one month when his wagon upset with him and he got a little water on his brain. I said little, but it actually covered his whole intellect. With this disease he wasn’t good for anything but a Student of Dic- tionaries” because learning that his voice was ----- well aint it? It was his only salvation.

And because its scope is thus wide, it is. whether it purports to be or not. ethical in the truest sense of the word. It is quite possible that this graduation class includes no future president of the United States; that none of its members arc destined to become fabu- lously rich, nor to win undying fame. Nevertheless, if we continue in the reso- lution to attain to this higher and more worthy end, who shall say that Urbana High School has not successfully achieved its purpose? Because we. the mem- bers of the Class of 1927. feel that it has faithfully striven to fulfill its most serious obligation to us. we leave its halls with an emotion of mingled gratitude and regret. We wish to extend to the members of the faculty and the school board a sincere appreciation of their sympathy and efforts in our behalf; and to those students who shall succeed us. the wish that they. too. may feel that they have grasped those things that were vital and worthwhile in their high school education.
