THE ROSEMARY 1931 zAnnual of the URBANA HIGH SCHOOL Urbana, Illinois Copyrighted by HELEN RUSSELL Editor ROB MARSHALL Bus. Manager Vol. 22 DEDICATION During our four years of high school life, as a class and as individ- uals, we have been ever aware of the kindly interest of Miss Ricketts. This interest has been manifested by her faithfulness, by her unremitting ef- forts to keep before us the high ideals of our school, and by her willing and eager support in helping us to pro- mote all extra-curricular activities. Because of her helpful counsel to the students and because of her efforts to develop the spirit of Urbana High, we, the class of 1931, dedicate the Rosemary to Miss Ricketts, thereby expressing our sincere appreciation and affection. FOREWORD “Yc who love a nation's legends, Love the ballads oj a people, That like voices from afar off Call to us to pause and listen, Speak in tones so plain and childlike, Scarcely can the ear distinguish Whether they arc sung or spoken;— Listen to this Indian Legend, To this Song of Hiawatha I” .•I.? the legend of this noble Indian is chronicled so do wr too find our school lijc a chronicle in word and image of events still fresh in our memory. There- fore, we, the Annual Staff, present the 1931 Rosemary hoping that sometime it may serve the friendly office of remembrance. CONTENTS Administration Classes Athletics Organizations Features in Jflemoriam On December 14, 1931. Urbana High School suffered an irreparable loss in tin death of its beloved principal. Mr. ('. W.

Her death has left a vacancy in the hearts and lives of her associates, who. during the many years of companionship with her in school formed associations which will forever remain in our memories. c L A S s E S “Out of childhood into manhood Now had grown my Hiawatha; Skilled in all the craft of hunters, Learned in all the lore of old men.,f Leroy Anders Now for { ood luck, cast an old shoe after me.

On account of the long list of activities in which these seniors engaged, it was impossible to include both the quotations and activity lists on the page with their pictures. In previous issues of The Rosemary it has been customary to omit the quotations for the more prominent seniors and to group their pictures and activity lists on the first two pages. But this year all the seniors' pictures are arranged alphabetically, and so we have adopted this method to include all the senior quotations.

Hadden ___High School Orchestra VALEDICTORY “Rosemary, that’s for remembrance.” Since that is the title so appropriately given to our year book, it seems fit- ting for the theme of our farewell message. The old familiar halls, the building, the teachers, the students, the activities—all these things are now only a chap- ter in our life. In later years when we leaf through the connotations of the past, these pictures will Hash across our minds like some exhilarating stimulant, bring- ing back pleasant memories. This is tin last time we will rightly be able to call ourselves students of Ur- bana High. Every year since starting to school we have left behind us one more stepping stone in the path of education. Each succeeding rank left us stronger and better fitted to bridge the gap to the next one. Now we find ourselves ready to make a great advance. For some of us it is a plunge into the sea of life; for others only a step into the complicated machinery of some university. These last four years have printed one of the most important chapters of our life. In the course of routine and study here we have formed friendships that are true and dear to us. We have acquired habits that will never desert us. Some of these habits will determine in part our destinies during the remaining years of our lives. Through various activities, we have experienced lessons that will help us solve the many difficult problems of coming crises. We feel competent and ready to push out into deeper water, but not with- out a tinge of regret at parting from these friendly halls. We all have high ideals and ambitions to attain. We aspire to develope strong and noble charac- ters; to become worthy citizens of our country; and to serve as models for other classes and another generation. We wish to extend to the members of the faculty and the school board our deepest appreciation for their help and sincere efforts during our stay in Urbana High. These things and better have been said before and will be echoed by others following down the trail that we pursue. Words are hollow tribute to our pas- sage. Actions only speak. We look behind at the things accomplished and ahead at tasks still waiting to be done. In order that we might fulfill our share of these duties to the best of our ability Let us do our work as well, Roth the unseen and the seen; Make the house where gods may dwell Beautiful, entire, and clean. Else our lives are incomplete. Standing in these walls of Time, Broken stairways, where the feet Stumble as they seek to climb. Build today, then, strong and sure, With a firm and ample base; And ascending and secure Shall tomorrow find its place. CATII ERINE IIKSSKl.SCHWERI T Thirty-nine SALUTATORY We, the members of the class of 1931, extend to you a sincere welcome to share with us the thrills of this evening:. We realize that you are fully as in- terested in this occasion as we are, and we deeply appreciate that interest. As we sit for the last time on this platform many thoughts arc racing through our minds. Memories and visions of twelve school years crowd into our consciousness, while we are also permitting our imaginations to take short flights into the future. Shall we attempt a brief analysis of these hurrying thoughts and visions? Most of us doubtless feel some sense of relief that these twelve years of schooling are completed. We know that for a large number of us school has been dismissed permanently, while, for us all, tonight marks the end of compulsory education covering two-thirds of our lives. Even though we realize that there is work ahead, we can pause to draw a long breath now. B.ut this feeling of relief is quickly submerged by the sense of satisfaction which comes with the successful completion of a difficult task. To have graduated is no mean achievement, but many of us have accomplished things in other lines than merely our lessons. Some have gone out for athletics and have won the coveted “I” while helping to bring glory to our school. Others have engaged in various activities, such as work on the school publications, the Echo and Rose- mary: some have devoted their efforts to the musical organizations; while a num- ber of courageous souls have indulged in dramatics, oratory or debate. Whatever our field of endeavor, we feel a justifiable pride in whatever success has been ours. Our analysis of our minds this evening reveals still another feeling—that of sharp sorrow to think that the associations and activities of these years are ended. We know that nothing can ever take their place. We have played and worked together: we have met and learned to know the members of the faculty as friends as well as teachers. Tonight we are one, a class, a unit; we have many common interests as students of Urbana High. Tomorrow we shall be parted, scattered never to unite again; our interests will lead us afar, each to his own destiny. It is this realization that brings a tear to our eye and a lump in our throat. We know, for you. our parents and friends, have told us so, that these years just past will prove for many of us the happiest of our lives. As we think of these things we are conscious of yet another feeling—that of gratitude to those who have made these opportunities available. The tax payers, our parents, and those citizens who have helped in so many ways are remembered with appreciation tonight. We have received liberally at your hands, and tonight we feel, more strongly than ever before, a sense of responsibility— a responsibility to go out and dis- charge life’s duties as worthy representatives of our splendid school and com- munity. To Urbana we owe much, and we are determined to pay our debt. Finally, the analysis of our minds discovers a trace of ambition and hope for the future. We do not feel that we have reached the pinnacle of achievement tonight. Rather do we realize that these years of formal education have been merely a preparation for what is ahead. We shall never be content to cease striving upward in whatever paths our feet may be planted. We are. then, relieved, we are proud, we are sad, we are grateful, we are hopeful. With these mingled emotions we again say from our hearts, “Welcome to our graduation exercises. Helen Russell CLASS STATISTICS (With Apology to H. W. Longfellow) In the Village of Urbana. In the land of maize and oatflelds, Stood a wigwam built for learning. Stood a wigwam strong and mighty. And within this mighty wigwam. Dwelt four tribes of learned people; And their chieftain was a stranger. From the distant land of Penfteld, Strong of build and full of sinew. He. a ruler wise and trusty. But the Senior tribe was strongest. Wisest in all lore and learning. Bravest in all skill and cunning. From the lips of Irving Seely. Called he all his tribe together. Counted every man and woman. One and seventy people had he. Eighty fair and ninety swarthy. Twenty tons of limb and body. Thus again cried Irving Seely In the warm and pleasant summer: We are crowded, O my people! In this lodge of brick and mortar; Let us seek for greater glory In the kingdom of the West Wind, In the land of the Illini.” Then they gathered all around him First the tallest—Richard Fulmer. And the small ones—Hurt and Susan. Then the oldest Cook and Oliver. Came the fairest—Betsy Bilsborrow, Lovely as a water lily. And the modest 'Lizabeth Roller. Shyer than a silver heron; Then the popular Frances Baldwin. Loved the faces of the athletes, Knew their names and also secrets— Called them Dutchy” and his rivals. Then the orator, Olin Browder, And the very strong man. Villars. And John Barth, the lleetesi runner. And the warriors, Root and Dixon, Spake with native tongues together. Talking much, and much designing. How this Senior tribe might prosper. All the wise squaws of the Seniors, Glad were they to travel westward. Brilliant as the sun was Catherine, Just as glimmering Helen Russell. Deep and quiet as the waters Are the maidens Jean and Mildred. Just as deep and just as kindly, Johnston, Sp'ear, and Betty Rowland. Then spoke up Eugenia Freemon, Winner of a silver trophy: “Go not forth. () clan of Seniors, To the kingdom of the West Wind, Till we have a feast together. Till we sing and dance together.” From the lips of Robert Bowditch, Came a clarion, shrill and treble. “Calling all the sweet musicians. To the pow wow of the people.” Came the flutist Bob Hieronymus, With the French horn. William Scovill, With the saxophone, Gene Weisiger. With the trombone, Robert Marshall. And the trumpeters. Smith and Karlton. Then at last from out the shadows Came the lovely dancing maidens. Lytle, Gourley, Pierce, and German, And the restless Patsy Busey, With her moods of sun and shadow. And the laughing Corky Lowman. With her smiles and sighs of longing. And the slender Maryellen With her tresses, fair and silken. Then he called upon the singers, “Sing to us. O Newlin Morgan. That the feast may be more joyous.” And the gentle Orian Lemon. Sang us songs of love and mercy. Then the maidens, Fairchild. Fletcher, Gave us music soft and pleading. And the tall and stately Katharine Sang a song of our departure. And the Seniors sadly listened, For they knew that on tomorrow They must Journey to the West Wind. To the home of the Illini. Then the little Carolyn Riley With her paints of many colors. And the artist, Connie Oak wood. With her brushes and her pencils. And the sketcher. Rose McCown. With her scroll and roll of parchment. Sat they down before the camp fire. Drew the lovely dancing maidens. Sketched the faces of the warriors, Painted figures, painted symbols. Representing the statistics Of the class of one-nine-three-one. In the doorway of the wigwam, Stood Miss Ricketts, kind and faithful. She the leader, oldest, wisest. She the friend of all the classes. And her voice shook with its sorrow. Farewell. O my laughing Seniors. My best wish I give unto you. May God-speed be ever with you. Then the councilor. Van Kennedy, Spake aloud and spake in this wise: We are going. O our leader. On a long and great adventure. But three tribes we leave behind us— Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior. In your charge and care we leave them. See that never harm comes near them. Teach them ways of truth and goodness, Show them paths of love and beauty. So they, too, may journey onward. To the land of true success.” Cll AKI.OTTK BK.VRI) Forty-one SENIOR CLASS HISTORY (As You Hike It) All the school’s a stage and all the hoys and girls are merely players; They have their exits and their entrances. And each class in its time plays many parts. The acts being in four ages; ACT I “Those salad days when we were green in judgment.’’ Time: Fall of 1927. Scene: Urbana High School. Characters: I reside nt____________________________F ra 11 ces Baldwin Vice-President_________________________________________Keith Reynolds Secretary______________________________________________Susan Anderson Treasurer_____________________________________Helen Russell Rosemary Representative_______________________Irving Seely Two Hundred Forty-six Other Green Young Things The curtain rises on the first act to show a jolly, rollicking crowd in pur- suit of knowledge. Gradually they bpcome acquainted with each other and get accustomed to their new surroundings. With inspired and loyal feeling they burst forth in their “lusty little voices” with the strains of their newly learned school song “Orange and Black.” Eagerly they join the various organizations, S. K s, G. A. A.’s, Girl Reserves. French, Latin, German, and Comrade Clubs; and with great anticipation they await the ordeal of initiation (Much Ado About Nothing). The climax of this act is the Class Stunt Show entitled “Four Min- utes to Go.” which wins first place. Then the curtain is drawn on the first act of their career. ACT II “Too too vain; too too vain.

As the curtain rises on the second act, these same students feel themselves a very distinct part of Urbana High School ready to play another important part in their educational careers. The gay scenes of this act consist of hops, parties, sports, and other good times. In the midst of these activities, exams approach and many are exclaiming: “ ’Tis true, ’tis pity, and pity ’tis, ’tis true.” while others look longingly at the teacher, saying: “Heaven that I had thy head.” This act closes with the presentation of “The Mikado” in which thev are well represented. ACT III “I feel within me, A peace above all earthly dignities A still and quiet conscience.” ('ontiinnit on I’agr 17.! Fort if ■tiro SENIOR CLASS WILL Among the documents brought to light after the departure of the class of 1.931 was this last will and testament. What a document it turned out to he! Who would have suspected that such treasures were so carefully hoarded away by the various members of the class? The document was in the rough—await- ing. I suppose,the hand of a master lawyer. Hark ye! to the hoarded treasure. We. the Seniors of Lrbana High School, being of sound and disposing mind, and with peace and charity for all the world, do hereby declare this our last will and testament on this day, June 12, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and thirty-one. To the Juniors we leave our best wishes for a successful last year with the hope that they will still retain their humble attitude and remember that they are “just children” in Senior English. To the Sophomores we will our excess knowledge with the request that they will forever leave our initials which we have so laboriously carved on the desks as a source of inspiration in their hours of need, which no doubt will be many. To the Freshmen we pass on the encouraging thought that three short years ago we were but freshmen, that there is still hope: that they too, if they strive diligently, may attain the heights of wisdom and maturity we have gained. To Mr. Hadden and Miss Ricketts we leave our thanks and hopes that they may in the future boast of another class as wise as ours. To Mr. Hallam, one geometry quiz book with all the solutions and answers. To Buck Schroth, two detective stories to read to his sixth hour Economics class. To Miss Everley, two ways to look cross without cracking a smile. To Lew Stephens, a spool of thread and a needle with which to sew the pocket on his football pants. To Miss Biedermann, a book entitled, “Poetry to Be Memorized at the Age of Seventeen and Enjoyed at the Age of Seventy-Five.' ’ To Mr. Tilbury, a pair of roller skates to save him many a tiresome walk to the office. The following personal bequests are made to various students: 1, Susan Anderson, do hereby will my ability to wear young men’s wrist watches every other week to Lillian Moss, with the devout hope that by the time she graduates, she will have developed it to as high a degree of art as I have. I, John Hatch, do, under my seal, will my ability to acquire detentions to Kenneth Thomas. 1 feel sure that he will remove the blot from the Hatch escut- cheon. Robert Smith leaves his reputation as a thinker to Ruth Mosher who is to use it only when needed. Lowell Villars gladly gives a book on “The Etiquette of Love Making” to Naomi Steffv. Lloyd Waldron donates his job as a typewriter hauler to Marcus Cord with the suggestion that an elevator be installed in the high school. Being sound of body and mind, I. Harold TenhaetT, do leave to Stewart Edgar my oom-pah talent and inclinations. David Mitchell regretfully bestows those “pleasant second hour study periods” in the library to Buddy Shroyer. Hem Weisiger gives to Marjorie Zink a life size photograph of himself. I. Walter Still, recognizing my qualities as a man with an unusual voice, leave it to Gayle Hollingsworth, for the good of the church. ('nutinuvd on 1‘ngc W2 t'orty-threo SENIOR class prophecy The presses were clanging noisily. An exasperated editor was storming at a tardy reporter. Said reporter looked fa- miliar. Why. I did know him. He was one of my old school mates. John Hatch. (At least, he wasn’t asking Miss Ricketts for an excuse, this time.) I was going to speak to him. but the editor looked formidable, so I passed into the city edi- tor’s olliee. As 1 opened the door marked “Lowell Villars, Private.” the sound or clicking typewriters assailed me, but I braved the din and made my way to his desk. He was storming. Look at this! he yelled, as he waved the morning edition of a newspaper dated June 10, 1941. in my face. I looked. The headlines told me the whole sordid story. GANGLAND’S KING MAKES CONFESSION. 1 read on. One-Lamp Louie Catoni. Chicago’s second Capone, has confessed to charges entered against him and has been sen- tenced to life imprisonment in the Bald- win penitentiary. “One day as Mr. Catoni was chatting with the Police Commissioner, Robert Hieronymus. Miss Frances Baldwin, chief executive of the Baldwin penitentiary, entered the room. Upon seeing her, Ca- toni completely lost his acquired poise, and. forgetting time and place, threw himself at her knees, saying he was Gor- don Faulkner, former resident of Ur- bana, Illinois, ami if she would listen to his pleas he would reform and become a new man. He sobbed out the entire story of his career of crime on her shoulder. He told of the giant network of henchmen he had scattered throughout the city, foremost among whom were Wilbur Roth. William McFall. Elroy Leming. William Scbvill, and Melville Youhili. These associates posted them- selves in different sections, and, at the break of dawn, concentrated their efforts on securing all the dandelions within their area, later taking them to a west- side brewery where wine was made. Some of the flowers were sold at greatly re- duced prices, and the florists of the city were forced into bankruptcy because of their inability to compete with such cut- rates. “Too, in the dead of night, these prowling accomplices stooped to the base act of taking the light globes from the city streets and using them as vats for the fermentation of their wine. This practice left the streets in darkness, which condition is undoubtedly demoral- izing to the youth of today. District At- torney Sam Bratton considers this a major felony and says there must be re- tribution. 1 could read no farther. The details stunned me. I could think of nothing else for days. Finally, feeling that a change of surroundings would relieve me of my oppressed feeling, I asked to be transferred to the Paris office of our newspaper. I went immediately to New York, but before I had embarked for Paris. I learned of a hold-up at the Palais d'Ar- gent. a notorious nightclub, and 1 went thither to investigate. During the course of the investigation. I learned that Mar- garet Johnston, the famous woman racketeer, was in charge of the liquor traffic of aforesaid night-club, and that Malcolm Bantz was the manager of the establishment. Maxine Armstrong, a well known settlement worker, has been try- ing vainly to convert them both. Also, before I left to take my boat. I had the pleasure of meeting the charm- ing hostess of the club. Miss Helen Rus- sell. She was very kind to me and gave me a personal introduction to their dancer of world fame, Frances Mary Gourley. Soon after I left for Paris. Upon my arrival there I received a no- tice asking me to appear at the foreign correspondence office at once. I did so. and was informed that I was to have complete charge of this department. My work was to begin that day. As I was looking over the dispatches recently re- ceived. I noticed foremost amongst them that the Delphi Oracle, hitherto one of the mysteries of the modern world, had been discovered fradulent and that a Miss Wilma Rankin had admitted being the instigator of the plot to deceive trust- ing seekers of truth who have consulted the Oracle in their hour of need. Many other interesting news items met my eyes. Robert Ogles, a prominent Washington politician, was laboring night and day to secure the repeal of the eighteenth amendment. His arguments in the Hoti.se with Constance Filbey, woman Representative from Illinois who opposed his views, are the talk of the nation. Mary Susan Anderson has been made president of the “Royal Order of Ameri- can Spinsters. with Catherine Hessel- schwerdt as vice-president. Mariam Noel, secretary, and Betty Smith, treasurer. Dorothy Schwartzlose has opened the Taj-Mahal as a summer resort. Among her prominent guests this season are Mr. Continued oil Pape 70 IIATCHET ORATION Senior: Full many a legend hath been told About this hatchet, wondrous old; Full many a song has found its way From olden times to the present day, Telling whence this emblem came; And every tale has added fame And interest to its mystic name. But careful research bared the truth Of ancient years to the present youth And truth is stranger far. you know. Than all tlte hectic tales which grow In fertile minds, or man-made plot-- Imagined tales, 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 Miami Indians lived here too; The Pottawatomie� set their tent. 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 Davis' grocery grows space. A little further down the hill There bubbled forth, their thirst to still, A spring of water, clear and cold. A comfort to these warriors bold. 'Tis near this old historic spot That C. X. (’lark 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 or 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 From 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, lighting, all must end I! 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 see 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 to 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 meet by proxy: I From the Senior class do cry Upon this stage to produce their man To answer in person for his class. Before, to them this hatchet may pass. Senior: You come sailing right up hero. As if you had no care nor fear,— But sailing high I hear’s your fad, Tho’ an airplane ride you’ve never had! You thought you had it fixed one day While at your aunt's, to slip away And take a ride in an airplane, With a friend who had one down the lane. But auntie, somehow, “smell't a mouse” And wouldn't let you leave the house. Unless your grandma went with you. So she could “see the airplane too!”— So the airplane engine made no sound You did your sightseeing on the ground While grandma stood right there near by. To see you did not sail the sky. And you've grown no wings since then, I see — But had to walk up here to me. Just an ordinary lass. Sent up here by the junior class. Junior: You're not so much, as I can see.

The home room teachers and advisers were Miss Fisher, chairman, Miss Lair, Miss Mowrev, Miss Kirk, and Miss Gross. These five advisers gave their support to every undertaking. As the annual Junior Orph we gave the play “The Mummy and the Mumps.” This production was very successful due to the efforts of the committee which was composed of Charles Anderson, Lowell Villars, Max Meadows.

Howland, Forty‘Hi nr JUNIOR TRIBAL TITTERINGS Frank and his parents had been living out West because the Winters in Illi- nois were too severe for his mother. Spring, when Florists gathered flowers for Floro wreathes, was here now and they were ready to start back to the home state. Frank was much pleased for on the way they were to take an auto trip through the mountains and would doubtless encounter many Savage Rebman. The next day the weather was fine. The Dodge car was covered on all sides with baggage and camping equipment. The family was packed in tightly and loaded down with boxes and bags. The ear swung out of the driveway and down Woolfridge drive. They had gone about five miles when Frank's mother sud- denly remembered that the folding cots had been left in the back yard, so the Dodge was turned around and the Smith family started back to get the cots and then prepared to start over again. They were finally on their way. A beautiful trip lay ahead of them. They rounded many dangerous mountain curves and each time they had to honk the Horn. That night they stayed in a tourist camp in a Schaede pine grove. The next morning Frank rose early to inspect the surrounding forests and mountain streams. While on this Tramp he saw in the distance a Griesel bear. He was much excited but was afraid to go closer for he had heard that they were very fierce. He walked on and soon he met an old friend of his by the name of Janies Scott. They had a great talk, since they had been parted for so long. The two families were together the greater part of the morning. At noon they started in their respective directions. That afternoon as they wound around the mountain roads and had just gone up a Long llilt and around a sharp turn they encountered a band of fierce Indians. Mrs. Smith was very frightened fearing they would be held up so she put her diamond ring quickly into her mouth. When she found out the Indians didn’t mean to rob them, she was so surprised she choked on her ring. Frank said, “ Wgkoff, mother?” Then she explained her reason for coughing. Sur- rounding the car, the Indians took the Smiths prisoners and led them before Chief Hollingsworth in the camp nearby. He sentenced them to remain in the camp for two weeks and during that time they were to help him LaSell his furs to the white men. They also had orders to obey all the commands of Scribe Ed- wards. Wrafhcr than have to stay longer they did this. Frank was very glad of the chance to be in the Indian camp. As he was thirsty, he went immediately to the Greenwcll nearby to get a drink. It was dry so lie ran to the Cold well where he was greatly refreshed with cool sparkling water. While he was doing this, Mr. Smith asked the Scribe where he could keep the ear. “.Just Darker under that tree,” she said. Soon night came and they were forced to sleep in Steffi little wigwams. The members of the tribe had better dwellings than these, with Wilton rugs and Morris chairs in them. They ate Fruit from Silver dishes while the Smiths had to eat from Corkerg ones. In the morning Frank went exploring around the camp, lie liked it very much. He enjoyed listening to the call of the Dobbins. While wandering around, he heard a Russell behind him and turning around he saw a very beautiful Pea- cock with a handsome spreading tail. On the left lie saw five Santa chickens eating Kerns of corn and a turkey which said. “Goble, double.9 He decided that this must be like a real farm. Frank played with the little Indian boys. They showed him how to play a new game with a Hall and Cord. Then he showed them how to make a miniature Ferris wheel. After they had Dunne this. they ran races over the Lee. through the Blawletl and across the Green and Brown fields. The Indian boys won for they were good runners as well as Walkers. Frank went wading along with the Indian boys and when he had finished he couldn’t find his other Shumate so he had to go to the Schuinaelter and have another made. They were trying to decide what to do next, when tin Porter blew the Scamahorn which was a signal to all Young Indians to come running. The Porter sent them to the Miller to get Moore Hour for the cook who Sears the meat. The Miller was an old German named Greishcimer. After the Smiths had been there for sometime and the novelty of the camp had worn off, Frank was wishing they could leave. One reason for this was that there were no Heaters in the wigwams, the nights were chilly, and they were al- lowed very few blankets. Another reason was that they didn’t get much to eat and had to work a great deal. As Frank expressed it, his stomach was as empty as Mother Hubbard's cupboard, lie thought he'd Dcy if he couldn’t leave soon. His father said, “Never Dyson.” The only time he ever got enough to eat was when the Halter gave water Mullens to all the boys. When the two weeks were up they were released and after finishing the journey with little excitement, they arrived home safely. JUNIORS We’ve lingered here for three long years. With lots of work and lots of pleasure: With much of worry mixed with fears. And just a little bit of leisure. We've learned to love each little nook, Know each mark upon the wall: And yet we know it’s in the book That sometime we must leave it all. We’ve had much fun along the way. For work well done is naught but fun, And we’ve had ever time for play As the months and years have run. Ah! this old school has earned a place. Within each junior’s happy heart,— A nook no other can replace,— Hut in a year we must depart. As seniors we shall work and strive To make our school life better yet, To make the best in us survive,— A year we never can forget. Fiftp 190 I'ljty-thrcc THE SOPHOMORE CLASS We started our second year at Urbana High School with the purpose of increas- ing our knowledge of everything, especially geometry and English. We elected the following officers to guide the activities of our class during the year: John Schriber, president: Jane Hadden, vice-president; George Gladding, secretary; Maurice Scliaudt, treasurer: John Gaines, Rose- mary Representative. Of course we were bubbling over with ideas, so we selected Harold Craig, George Zink. Donald Oelnnke. Betty Ann Knight, Elaine Hood and Eileen Bennett to voice our opinions in the Student Council. Our class advisers were Miss McClurg, Miss Wood, Miss Brownell, Miss Lawson, Mr. Tilbury, and Mr. llallam. We felt that we were very fortunate in having these particular advisers assigned to us, for they have backed us in every class activity. We were well represented in athletics this year. Two of our boys, George Zink and Bill Hamilton won their football letters; and George Zink was also .Ian� : I1 i i KN. Vicc-J’rrxIdcHt TOfi How: Bnker, Hyson. Mc-Lgiu hlln, Tlpps, Wood, Lawson.

The Sophomore hoys’ basketball team was made up of Bill Guinn, .John Sehriber, Gns Radebaugh. George Gladding, and Maurice Schaudt. Our girls’ basketball team took second place in the tournament. The squad con- sisted of Ruth ('ogdal. .Jo Bennett, -Jean- nette Weeks, Marian Wingfield. Mae Prevette, Alberta Trap, Gertrude Wheeler, Ruth Sinnott, Betty Ann Knight, Helen Bogan. Barbara Miller, and Lois Edwards. The greatest honor that came Jo us was the winning of the Class Stunt Show, and as a reward our numerals were engraved on the Stunt Show Shield. The name of our stunt was “Beauty Ala Carte.’’ One of the main events of the year was the Sophomore party. Everybody liad such a good time that we thought we should have two parties a year. All in all. we have had such a good time as Sophomores that we almost hate to think of becoming .Juniors, but, what is to be, is to be. Mai.'KK'K SriiAcivr. Trcamircr John Cainkx.

The price was not paid in money as it is today but they exchanged certain articles for clothing from the village Taylor; for apples from the Appleman: and for the Miller’s flour which was made at the old Mill. in return the Indians offered Hays, asparagus Tipps, Cole, and frequently the boys would a Bird sell. The chief of this tribe was Schriber. lie liked nothing better than to in- spect the Kemnan brought in from no Mansfield after a war. Some would be seriously injured but the one who could stand the most Payne would be given certain privileges. The main event was the evening meal. The Shepherd would watch the chief’s flock and each Knight would bring in a lamb to the cook who Sears and roasts it. Every two Weeks everyone in camp would have a feast. On this event the chief's Singer would sing and pound on a drum which hung on the Wall of the chief's wigwam, llis singing sounded more like a Sehaadl from a coyote. After the feast they would hold a contest to see who was the best Ryder. Most gener- ally a Young warrior would win. Ball was played and races were run where they would run with their faces covered with a Hood. When there were no wars the men would Slack and the women did all of the work about the Place. The men wotdd rest on Schaede banks of Brooks midst Bowers of flowers just in Bloom. Dailey a small group would Tramp for Miles to hunt Bruno the bear. A Waggoner would go with them to Wheeler back to camp where Moore would offer their Sends in skinning the animal. Although they had little responsibility it was necessary for someone each day to go to the Jlulton the Hill where they could see Bufefield and surrounding territory. In this way they could protect themselves from other invading tribes. Though they feared no other tribes someone might Frame up on them so their motto was Safety first. A Barker would announee all events just as we would do today. The chief had a Fairchild, Gougler, who was madly in love with the Young warrior, Radebaugh. Now this young Radebaugh didn't care two ‘‘Indian whoops for her. In vain she tried to win his manly affections but she made no Gaines for he was a woman hater, lit was a very accomplished man. lit could live on raw meat for a month; he could shoot an arrow at the rate of ten rods a minute; he could run faster than the Cochran of the wind blowing down a can- yon: he could whoop so loud that the very beasts would growl with envy, lie was the sovereign of maidens' hearts and the object of the jealous rage of all other Indian warriors such as Ochmke, twin warriors Keller, Lurch. Hindman. Harvey, and Hamilton. One day Gougler was tripping in the meadow picking daisies. A daisy she took in her hand and plucked each petal while murmuring softly to herself, “lie loves me, he loves me not. Suddenly the earth reverberated with a mighty tremor, and as she turned, she saw a herd of buffaloes stampeding down the Glendy toward her. She shook in her very moccasins with fear. There was no hope of escape. The oncoming herd was too close for her to run to the sheltering woods nearby. Now strolling through the woods was handsome Radebaugh, returning from his morning dip. Me noticed little Gougler in the meadow and the stampeding animals, llis keen intellect took in the situation at a glance. He snatched his how ami arrow, and taking a quick but accurate aim, he let fly the arrow, which struck the very heart of the leader of the herd who fell at little Gouyler’s feet. The natural instinct of the animals made the herd divide and go around the body of their leader. Thus little Gouyler was saved. After the herd had passed he ran to her to see if she had been injured. Not a hair of her head had been touched. Poor child—how frightened she was. Then Radebaugh realized what a dear little thing she was and that it was she and she alone that he loved. When he looked into her beautiful blue eyes lie knew that she was his. Together they crossed the meadow to the camp where they immediately sought her father’s wigwam. They told him of their engagement and he rejoiced when In learned the news. To make certain their decision he asked Iiatlebauffh, For her would you I) it son ' ’ lie answered without hesitation. 4 ‘ Yes, Durst you ask me such a question?” It was decided that Gouylcr would give as her dower, Fast Brumfield, a section of Wingfield and the Green well Wigwam: that they were to have the fuller as a servant and Captive DcTurk as Porter; that the groom would wear tin family Buckles on his shoes at the wedding. For their wedding gift the chief said he would give them a Tudor Ford sedan. Though glad for such a union the chief shed tears at the loss of his Ward. lie gave them his blessing. We trust that they lived happily ever after. SOPHOMORES We've been in school now just two years; We've had a lot of pleasures; Perhaps for teachers we've made tears But tears are always treasures. With two more years to finish in And much more fun before us. Perhaps more stunt shows we can win And enter Zcigfield's (’horns. Our hoys have made good records On gridiron, track or field; They hold our victory banner high, Our laurels they will shield. Our girls have been good hackers; They have followed all our teams; In fact we have no slackers We’re a dandy class it seems. With half our school days over And as many more to go. We’ll keep our “33” in clover With the motto Always grow.” 1V FI ft Height Fifty-nine THE FRESHMAN CLASS In the fall of 1930 about two hundred twenty-five ambitious students entered Ur- bana High School. Joe Carson was elected president; Lillian Moss, vice-president; Billy Browder, treasurer; Betty Moomau, secretary; and Maxine Gladding, Rose- mary Representative. Miss Eyerley led us through a most successful year with the help of Miss Biederniann, Mr. Boyd. Mr. James, Mr. Murphy, Mr. Nolen. Miss Thomas, and Miss Webber. Our class was well represented in the different, activities of the school. Our outstanding athletes were Arthur Apper- son, Joe Carson, Eugene Hanes, Beverly Tate, and Guy Villars, who Mr. Sehroth stated, are good prospects for the future.

James and his papa and mama had reached the end of their long journey. Their old Ford, with no Heater, wheezed its way around tin corner of Kimberlin mountain into LaValle which had been recommended to them. “A Hoy,'' Seth James' papa, “here is an ideal place to make our resi- dence. He then put up a shelter for the night intending to complete camp tiie next day. With James’ papa had come a larger party, the rest having stopped farther up tlie road for the night. All of them were Easterners and had come out hero to set up claims in this laValle which was supposed to he rich in Zink. It was indeed a queer group that had come all this way together. Among them was a Good Hi shop named Tate, a Merchant named Mengis. a Taylor, several Millers, a Cooper, a Burgess named Van Deventer, and Germans named Hesselsehwerdt, Gerhardt, Swearingen, Stranch and Jlegenbort. There was also a Gaylord named Galbraith, a holshevist Balispy who had a long Ileaird, a Hooker called Hevis. a Port-man named Percival who always wore a big Hackle on his coat. Then there was a Smith, a Miner, an unusual chap named Thompson. a descendant of the owner of the famous chain-restaurant founder and several Scotchmen. McCloud, McFall, McCown and McLaughlin. However, there was a Dearth of Irishmen, there being only one Hogans, one Corkery and an O'Donnell. Several weeks later our friends having found their Havens and being set- tled in the valley decide to go exploring up tin old mountain. Mr. Scott, James might go along, for during this time his son had learned to use the bow and arrow quite well and had captured quite a few wild animals. So James thought that if he could Sell their furs he would make money. At last the Day came when they were to go. They arose with the sun and got an early start. Their path led them through a Sc haede Wood. A Martin overhead sang a Carroll, and here and there was an open space, prairie-like in appearance but thick with Burr and Mar-berry. After crossing a Longmire they reached an elevation where they could look down into laValle below. Here they saw Green Fields and a little brook with its .l oss-covcred banks on which grew many a Rose. In the distance was a Lakey, which they named Rimer. Now and then they stopped to rest and eat Dunlap apples and Hursey bars with nuts Brest in. The candy made them thirsty but as there were no Wells they could get no drink. In the meantime James was very much attracted by some frisky Gray squirrels which were Hasken Neer and chased them in and out among the trees. To be frank he was so interested in them that he failed to notice how far away he was from his companions. The older men, being tired, overlooked the dis- appearance of the Young hoy. Suddenly James missed tin party. He called and called but received no answer. He was glad that he had his gun with him but received a Schock when he discovered that his Gmullock was broken. Though it seemed hopeless he started out to find shelter for it was getting late. Soon he heard some Cox crow- ing and down an incline in front of him on tin farthest edge of an open space, he saw a group of buildings. Coming closer he saw that they were Barricks, but did not know until later that it was an Indian Camp, lb was greeted by a group of Saudi Indian boys, playing Ball, who eyed him curiously. Although a brave lad. the little white boy's heart beat fast at the sight of the Iiedmon. One little boy, whose dog was a great Barker, came running towards him with a war- whoop. This brought the rest of the Indians, while here and there James saw a head thrust from the door of a Bar rick. Though frightened, he attempted to tell one of the warriors what had hap- pened to him. The Indian failed to understand, but to his surprise he took .{nines by the hand and led him to the door of tin Chief's Barrick. One of the Indians called and Chief Carson came forth in such Riggs as you never did see. He was followed by his scribe Moomau and pecunia Browder, . nines was very much worried for fear the Indians would scalp him or hold him for Hansom. It was some time before he could make them understand what was wrong and that he wanted to go back to his people. At last the Chief got it Wright and they decided that Scout Pflugnutcher was to take him back to his own camp which was on the other side of the moun- tain. But first Chief Carson, being sociably inclined, and proud of his long Swedisli ancestry, introduced . nines to all of his sons. They were Anderson, Apptrson, Carson. Empson, Hudson. Johnsons, Nelson, Olliverson, Robinson, Simpson, Williamson, and three Wilsons. It was a mighty happy little boy that was delivered to his mother late that evening though the liedmon had been good to him.

It is only through the media of high school athletics that school spirit manifests itself to the greatest degree. And behind the scene of tin big games and athletic events lies the everyday work of training tin individual athlete. In this way. and to a great degree, the coaches are responsible for the spirit of tin school, as well as that of the teams and individual players. Krbana has been for- tunate in its selection of leaders in athletics, and through them it has become a respected opponent among the schools of central Illinois, especially the Big Twelve Con- ference. Coach Stephens, in his six years at Krbana High School, has won a reputation as a leader capable of de- veloping the determination and fighting spirit of his teams. Of equal importance to our school has been Mr. Stephens interest in and encouragement of underclass- men in athletics. Steve's football teams have always been thoroughly trained as is exemplified by their frequent victories over Big Twelve teams, ami Stki-iikss. Coach S 'II ROTH. Axfllttdllt Coach even more so by their successful competition with the best that other con- ferences have to offer. Even though not such a popular sport, track de- mands more time and effort on the part of the coach than is usually appreciated. The variety of events requires the training of competitors in each of the many phases of a meet. Surely the life of a coach is a busy one. and Coach Stephens well deserves the credit given him as a very sue- eesxful leader in athletics of all branches. Buck Sehroth has been Steve's assistant for five years. lie scouted teams that were to compete with Ur- bana later in the season, and reported their plays and ability. He coached reserve football and basketball teams and assisted in track. Besides this, he always willingly responded with his “sales talks when called upon to support the different activities. He will always be re- membered for his peppy, loyal speeches delivered in our assemblies before our big games. Our athletics have been greatly aided by the as- sistance of Wyman Eccles, the .Junior football and basketball coach, by Clark Hoot who coached swimming, and by Clyde Hallam. the baseball coach. Till Dixon. Wlsijr«� r, S ,hrllw� r. Hlli-y MANAGERS There was a certain boy in school who always went around with a very busi- ness-like air and seemed important. He was often called out of class to go on some athletic mission. Well, it was Gene Weisiger. He was an assistant athletic manager last year, but this year he was made the head manager. No one realized how much work Gene really did and how efficiently it was done. His assistants were .John Sehriber, Dwayne Dixon, and Junior Riley. These boys did a lot of hard work but they themselves remained in the background. However, their services played an important part in the success of our teams. CHEER LEADERS There is no doubt about the fact that games and pep meetings would be dead without cheering. This year t’rbana was very lucky in having a group of four peppy cheer leaders. These were: Melvin Wymer, Charles Keller, Chester Keller, and Eleanor Nixon. They were very dependable and indirectly assisted in the victories of the teams. It is a very difficult task to keep up the enthusiasm of a crowd. However, each one of these cheer leaders certainly did his or her part in getting rousing cheers from the attendants at the games. Fair or rainy weather, they were always right there backing the team. Chiul.-r Keller, WvmiT. Ctinrle K«‘llt r SixtU-cIght SMy-ntne Toy Itote: Stephens, Mitrlmll. Wlllou, Dixon.

He was a crack pass receiver and very few plays got around him. Knlph Waldron played the difficult position of running guard and he played it well. He was named “most valuable player on the team by vote of the squad. Van Dusen Kennedy played tackle, was the most dependable lineman, and he was also captain. He was aggressive and often stopped plays be- hind the line. URBANA 12, TAYLORVILLE 7 Playing' on one of the hottest clays of tin season, the Urbana High football team opened the 1930 season wit h a 12 to 7 victory over Taylorville. To start the game Urbana kicked off to Taylorville, and Taylorville on the very first play fumbled the ball. Urbana recovered on the 8-vard line. Portman carried the ball through right; tackle and scored the first touchdown. Urbana tried a place kick but it went wide. The first touchdown and Taylorville‘s lone counter came as results of breaks. The second score for Urbana made by Portman, how- ever, was earned. This touchdown was made in the second quarter. The game resulted in a duel between Portman and Hall of Taylorville, All-State halfback. Seventy-one Crain Port man was new to Urbana this year, but he soon made a name for himself at halfback. He was extremely speedy, long end runs being his specialty. Edgar Hoot, on account of his long experience on the squad, was assigned the duty of directing the plays from the quarter- back position. He did a dandy job. Kenneth Thomas was only a junior, yet this was his second year as a regular. He played full- back instead of end this year and was a powerful line plunger. URBANA 6, DECATUR 6 Urbana opened its conference season against Decatur. Early in the first quarter Rex of Decatur took the ball on a lateral pass and ran 60 yards down the sidelines for a touchdown. In the seeond quarter Urbana retaliated. Root cut through right tackle for a gain of HO yards. Then alternating between Port- man and Amennan, the trio advanced the hall to Decatur's 4-yard line. At this point Decatur called time out to gather its defense together. On the first play Urbana was stopped hy a determined line. But on the second play Root scored through center. Each team had another opportunity to score but the opposing lines held. The second half became a punting duel, neither team scoring. Seventy-two Kotxirt S c li ti m a c li r played at various posi- tions in t lie center of t he line. He was the best at center because of his accurate passing and strength on defense. Paul Simpson was the other powerful tackle. He was one of the big rea- sons why our line held like a stone wall. Next year he ought to be even more valuable. I owell Yillurs was the only veteran on the team. He was the regular cen- ter and whenever Urbana wanted to be certain of a good pass Lowell was the passer. URBANA «. BENTON 0 Urbana defeated Benton. ( to 0. and avenged a 7 to ( defeat, received al tin hands of the Benton team last year in a night game. During the first three quarters neither team scored and fortune changed throughout the game pretty much as the wind shifted. In the last of the fourth quarter, Benton punted and an Urbana man crashed through the line and blocked it. The ball was re- covered by Schumacher for Urbana on Benton’s 12-yard line. Portman tried to gain around end but was stopped; Root threw a pass to Waldron which was incomplete: Port man carried the ball again but gained no ground. On the fourth down Root passed to Ralph Waldron over the goal line for the winning score. Scvnily-thrce Pete Waldron was one of the running guards. He was fast and a good blocker. As Pete is only a junior, ho is one of Ur- hana's best prospects for next year. JoIiii Amermnn played either quarterback or halfback on offense and safety on defense. He was a good ball carrier and one of the best tacklers on the team. Donald Dixon won a position on the varsity near the last of the sea- son as end. He was very fast and was always the first down the field on punts. URBANA 20, BLOOM HIGH 6 Urbana s speedy offense was too bewildering: for Bloom's ponderous line. Bloom made the first touchdown early in the first quarter, but failed to make the extra point. To start the second period the Bloom punter made a poor kick which went out of hounds on his 30-yard line. In the next play Port mail gained 15 yards. Bloom was penalized 15 yards which placed the ball on the 1- yard line. The Bloom line held tor the first three downs but Hatch hurled across center for the score on the fourth down. Later in the .second quarter Ur- bana began a steady march down the field which resulted in another touchdown. Seventy-four George Zink was one of the two sophomores to earn his letter. He played halfback on defense and end on offense. He has promise of being a real player. John Hatch was full- back during the first of the season but later he played guard. He had plenty of power and force behind Ids plunges which always gained. Hubert liowditch was a substitute end. It was Bob's first year at foot- ball and he made re- markable progress. He was eager to learn and lie always tried hard. URBANA 7, PEKIN 13 Urbana su tiered the first defeat of the season from the strong Pekin team. Pekin made the first score early in the game, on its passing attack. Urbana scored as a result of a punt in which Amerman ran hack to the Pekin team’s 30- yard line. On the next play Port man circled around end for 25 yards. Then Amerman drove through the line for the scoring touchdown. In the try for the extra point, Edgar Roots place kick hit tin bar and bounded over. It looked as if Urbana might win the game by this one point, but later Pekin scored again. Urbana fumbled on Pekin's 30-yard line. In the next six plays the Pekin eleven forced tin hall over the goal line for the winning touchdown. Sr relit l -fl VC Tli nr in a ii Sears had grit, determination, and the fighting spirit—all qualities that every coach wishes for in a player. He played a scrappy game at guard. Hill Hamilton substi- tuted as tackle and was the other sophomore to earn his letter. He was the biggest man on the team and plugged big holes in the line. Keith Reynolds had more energy and pluck than any player on the team, although he was smallest. When the team needed pep, •‘Ike” tilled in as halfback. URBANA 0. PEORIA CENTRAL 6 Urbana High received a heart breaking defeat from Peoria Central. For three entire quarters both teams were held scoreless, and it looked as if the game would end with a 0 to 0 tie. But in the last quarter one of the Urbana boys fumbled on his own 18-yard line. An alert Peoria end recovered the ball. On the next play Peoria completed a pass for a gain of 14 yards. The Urbana line stiffened and for three downs held Peoria for no gain. But on an intricate triple pass Peoria Central scored the needed touchdown. Van 1 Risen Kennedy, Pete Waldron, and John Hatch did some outstanding blocking and tackling in the Urbana line. Ralph Waldron’s punting stopped several Peoria attacks. Fml Hibson was a substitute back- fleld man and lineman. He made a splendid showing in both the Dan- ville and Taylorville games by his tackling and blocking. A hard worker, he showed a tine spirit for four years on the squad. David Mitchell earned a place on the squad for himself this season by four years of consistent hard labor. He played end and other positions in the line. His determination was always a real inspiration to his team mates. URBAN A 20, DANVILLE fi The Urbana eleven received a decided surprise at the little resistance the Dan- ville team had to offer. Urbana had very little trouble in opening holes in Dan- ville's defense. It took only six minutes to score the first touchdown. Root attemptet! a drop kick after the first touchdown for the extra point hut it was no good. Kenneth Thomas crossed the line for the second score after another long march down the field. Root’s pass to Faulkner was completed for the extra point. The game was so one-sided that it lacked excitement. The only thrill furnished by Danville was when Archie, the star halfback, cut through the Urbana line, reversed his field, and galloped fil yards for the lone Maroon score.

RESERVE FOOT BALL SQUAD The Reserve football team playing against regular reserve squads from other teams came through the season with fair results. The team played St. Joe, Decatur Reserves, Roosevelt, John Hill of Decatur, and Kantoul and won a majority of tin games. The team was composed mainly of under-classmen. It was difficult to keep a consistent line-up, because as soon as a player im- proved he was moved up to the varsity squad. Next year many of these boys will he on the varsity team. The reserves were coached by Oliver Langhorst from the University. URBAN A 12, MATTOON 12 A fighting and inspired Urbana eleven gained a tie with the undefeated Mattoon team, 12 to 12. No scoring was done until the second half when Mat toon passed over the goal line. In the fourth quarter, Purvis while at- tempting to punt on the fourth down was tackled on his own 20-vard line. Rey- nolds and Thomas took the ball to the one-foot line and then Thomas plunged over for tin touchdown, tying the score. Urbana scored again on Purvis' fumble. But in the last few minutes Mattoon passed its way down the field for another touchdown. URBANA 0, CHAMPAIGN 0 Three times Urbana threatened to score and three times Champaign’s line held them hack. Urbana’s first opportunity came early in the game when Champaign fumbled on her own 5-yard line. Urbana recovered but couldn’t advance the ball past the six-inch line. Then again Urbana blocked a kick which put her in position to score, but both the line plays and end runs failed. The third opportunity came when after a hard march Urbana reached the 10-yard line. But an incomplete pass on the fourth down ended all the scoring hopes for either team. Seventy-eight DON DIXON Captain Toy Rote: Strplmiis. FuIiikt. Sc-ly, I-'milkimr. Schroth.

Leslie “Curly” Hamil- ton was one of the best defensive guards Urbana has ever had. He could be depended upon to get the ball off either of the team's backboard. URBANA 12. RANTOUL 23 Rantoul made the first score in tin game with a field goal and two free throws. Curly Hamilton and Don Dixon both scored soon after with two baskets. But Rantoul made about two field goals to Crhana’s one throughout the game. Urbana seemed unable to make its many tries for baskets good. JUNIOR SQUAD The Junior squad completed a successful season l� v winning seventeen out of twenty-three games. The Juniors defeated such strong teams as the Decatur Reserves, Champaign Reserves, Sidney, Onarga, Tolono Reserves, Rantoul Re- serves, and many others. They lost by small margins to Fisher, Mat toon, and Arinst roilg. Top How; TliuiiuiH. Soar, , I lea tor. Hoilgc� , I . Waldron. I'irnt How: C. Gortmrdt, Wnithors, (i. Tnrpenning, Wertz, WlkofT. Eighty-one Gordon Faulkner played a fast game at forward. “Dutch” had nat ural ability at handling the ball and he always did his share of scoring by his sensational one-handed shots. He was the one varsity player hack this year. Mdgar Hoot was a dandy guard, and many times he dribbled and pivoted his way through for a short shot. Edgar was very fast and al- ways stuck with his opponent on de- fense but entirely outplayed him on offense. URBANA 22, CLINTON 11 The Clinton team could not get its offense organized. Their boys rarely, got in for a short shot and they could not hit their long ones. During the first half which ended 7 to ( this was a real ball game. But in the third quarter Urbana changed tactics and flashed down the floor for one basket after another. SOPHOMORE SQUAD The Sophomore squad had a rather poor season. The team was greatly handicapped because it lacked tall players. Games were played with Longview, Onarga, Tolono, Johns-Hill, Champaign Ponies, and Centennial. This team was coached by Schroth, and when the boys are taller they will be good material for the Varsity. Top How: Sclirotli. Schncdo. Guynn, Schmidt. Firnt Row: Gladding.

Be- cause he was an excellent dribbler and had an uncanny eye tor long baskets, he was sent in either to stall or to shoot. John Fu .ak was only a Junior, but he was a valuable substitute. He was on the Junior squad at first, but be- cause of his ability he was moved to the Varsity. He played any position and was good on pushing in re- bounds. UK BAN A 25, PEORIA CENTRAL 18 At the start of the fourth quarter Faulkner made two free throws giving Urbana the lead 15-12. Peoria scored on Root's fourth foul. Seely went in for Root and sunk two long ones. Dixon dribbled in to make the score 21-14. Peoria made two more shots but Hamilton, Fulmer, and Faulkner scored before the game ended. FRESHMAN SQUAD The Freshmen had a strong team this year. They lost only two games, one to Centennial and the other to “The River Rats. The first team consisted of Tates. E. Ilanes, Simpson, Bland, and Apperson. This was the best Fresh- man squad Urbana has had For some time, and future hopes for the Varsity are very bright. Top How: WelxT. Oar� .....

Two free throws by Danville and five points for I’rbana made the score 10 8. In the last quarter with Danville ahead 12-11. Root tossed a free throw as the gun went off. In the second overtime, Root again made a free throw to win the game 13-12. URBANA 28, CHAMPAIGN 17 Champaign started with a rush and scored four points before a minute was up. After a short time out Urbana came back strong. Faulkner and Root made field goals to tie the score. In the second quarter Hamilton batted in a short one and followed it with another soon after. In the second half Urbana played a waiting game and then changed to a flashy attack which piled up points to win the game. URBANA 11, DECATUR 20 The play in the first quarter was evenly matched and it ended 3-2, Decatur. To start the second quarter Decatur made an easy one. Faulkner and Hamilton both scored on fouls, and Fulmer put Urbana into the lead 6-5 for the one and only time during the game, when he pushed in a rebound of Hamilton's. During the rest of the game Decatur piled up points and then played keep-away. INTRAMURAL WINNERS More than one hundred boys turned out for the intramural basketball tour- nament. Every boy had a chance to play on one of the sixteen teams at some time or other. “Barricks Bricks” won the championship by defeating “Mitchell’s Monkeys” in the final game, 25-24. The players on the winning side were Marvin Sebaede. Paul Barricks, Nathan Cole. Charles Anderson, Frank Stapp, and .lessie Field. CONSOLATION WINNERS “Reynold’s Rats” were the winners of the consolation tournament this year. The team included George Phillips, Bud Schroyer, Milton .Johnson. Keith Reynolds, and Harold Cates. A Home-Room tournament was held this year for the first time. This gave every boy in school a chance to play. Miss RompeUs room won. The team was made up of Irving Seely, Keith Reynolds, Charles Smith, Edgar Root, and Steve Routine. Top Hotc: Schaedo. Bur rick. Cole, Phillips, Shroyer. F1r«t Kmc: Anderson.

Faulkner added a one-handed shot and Dixon pushed in a rebounder be- fore the quarter ended, 6-0. Champaign made two free throws but baskets by Fulmer. Hoot, and Faulkner, and two free throws by Dixon gave Urbana 14 at the half. In the second half Urbana substitutes had little difficulty in scoring. t'RBANA 28, MATTOON 15 Urbana scored tin first basket soon after the opening tipoff and was lead- ing 8 to 2 at the end of the first quarter. From then on Urbana had an easy time of it and wasn’t threatened once. Dixon sunk seven field goals and three free throws besides playing a marvelous Hoor game at center. Urbana played like an inspired team, making its own breaks and taking advantage of every one. PONTIAC TOURNAMENT The Urbana High School basketball team participated in the Pontiac In- vitational Tournament during tin� holiday season. We played our first game with Sauneman. Our second team played the entire last half and we gained an easy victory over the opponents. Urbana took an early lead in the Spring- field game and held it the first half but Springfield finally defeated us by the score of 21-19. THE DISTRICT TOURNAMENT The District Tournament held this year at St. .Joe was won for the second successive time by Urbana. We opened the tournament with St. Joe defeating them in a hard fought battle by the score of 29 to 15. The second game was played against Homer. Urbana won with a rather close score of 19 to 13. The greater pari of the first and second games was played by our second team; the varsity team played only a few minutes in order to give them practice for the semi-finals. In the semi-finals Urbana defeated Sidney by a score of 27 to 6. The first team gained a good lead during the first half of the game and that lead was held to the end of the game by the second team which was put in during the third quarter. The final game was won from Uisher by a score of thirty-six to fourteen. Urbana took the lead in the first quarter and held it easily until the final whistle. The Urbana boys showed good form throughout the whole tournament, and proved by their easy but effective handling of the ball that they deserved to win. At the time it was held we had one of the most severe snowstorms of the winter; but even this did not keep a large Urbana delegation from attending the games. S EC'T ION AI, TO I ’ R N A M E NT The Sectional Tournament was held this year at Danville. Due to the fact that the floor in the Danville Armory was very slick, there were lots of bad passes and many shots were missed. Urbana met Monticello in the first game of the tournament. Mont'cello was reputed to be very strong after their victory over Champaign at the Dis- trict. Tournament, the week before. We had a hard time getting a lead over our opponents, but late in the second quarter we took a slight lead and steadily increased it in the second half so that the score wavvs 28-15 at the final whistle. The second game of the tournament was played with Rantoul. Rantoul scored continuously in the last few minutes of play and defeated us by the score 18-12.

SCHEDULE Champaign Big Twelve Quadrangular District Ottawa State SUMMARY OF TRACK SEASON Urbana enjoyed a most successful season on the track, winning the dual meet with Champaign, the Conference, the District, and placing third in the State. Although missing the services of Terwilliger, Knight, Ralph Seely and Russell, heavy point winners of last year, Steve was able to develop new talent to take their places, although not in the same events. It is the system of always having a bunch of underclassmen coining on that contributes as much as any other factor to Urbana’s success in all branches of athletics. This year every winner of a track letter is a Senior, but it is safe to predict that next year will find a group of athletes ready to carry on the win- ning tradition. Already signs of budding talent may be discerned in such men as Simpson. American, Zink, Smith. Thomas, Waldron, Wertz, Schriber, the Hanes brothers, Shroyer. Browder. Elam, Schumacher. Mehnert, Peneii and others. If these boys will stick at the job and practice diligently they will be able to step into the shoes of Portman, Barth, Seely, Faulkner, and Root next year and bring accustomed honors to Urbana High. CHAMPAIGN MEET Urbana High School’s track team opened the 1931 season on April 11 with a decisive victory over her ancient rival. Champaign. The score was 811 3 to 35 2 3, Urbana winning nine of the thirteen events, and picking tip enough second and third places to pile up the impressive total. Crain Portman showed promise of the splendid record he made later in the season by winning both dashes and the broad jump, making him high point winner for the day. Dutch Faulkner was a double winner, taking first in both hurdle races. Irving Seely added eleven points with a victory in the pole vault and a second place in the broad jump and the high jump. Don Dixon and John Barth also contributed eight points each, Don winning the high jump and placing second in the mile, while John won the quarter and picked up a second place in the hundred yard dash. Other point winners were Schumacher who won the javelin throw, Amer- man with a third in the javelin and half mile. Thomas with his second in the quarter, Sinnott with a second in the shot. Simpson with a second in the discus and a third in the shot, and Smith with second in the pole vault. The best marks of the day were hung up by Portman in tin� dashes and Seely in the pole vault. Crain stepping the hundred in 10 3 10 seconds, while Seely vaulted 11 feet six inches. This meet concluded the dual competition between Champaign and Ur- bana for the year. The Thanksgiving Day football game resulted in a 0 to 0 deadlock; Urbana won the two basketball games, while Champaign triumphed in the two swimming meets. The winning of this meet clearly gave Urbana the edge in the year’s athletic competition. Ki'jhty-ninc Crain Port in an was Urbana’s outstanding per- former. He climaxed a season in which he won firsts in every meet, by winning a first and sec- ond in the State. Irving Seely was good for a first place in almost every meet, out vaulting his competitors handily. In the State he tied for first honors with three others. .John Barth was a con- sistent quarter miler. winning many firsts dur- ing the season. He qual- ified for the State finals but finished barely out- side the money. QUADRANGULAR MEET Mattoon, Danville, and Champaign were met in a meet consisting of six relay races and six field events. Urbana won four of the six relays: the hurdle relay, the half mile, quarter mile, and mile relays. Champaign took the distance medley and the sprint medley relays. In the field events Seely won the pole vault and Schumacher the javelin throw. Mattoon proved the strongest in the field events. OTTAWA MEET In the Ottawa meet Urbana won second in two relays, the quarter and the half mile, being defeated in both races by the team from Maine Township High School of DesPlaines. Both races were run by the same team, composed of Barth. Root. Faulkner, and Portman. Portman won the hundred yard dash and placed second in the broad jump while Irving tied for third in the pole vault. Ninety Gonion Kauilkm-r was a hurdler— and a good one. He usually won first, in the lows and frequently took the highs as well. Besides contri- buting many points in the hurdle races. “Dutchy was a member of the fast relay team. Kdgar Root improved steadily throughout the season, seeming to gain in speed with each meet. He was first used as a member of the relay team, but later was entered in several low hurdle events, where he helped out. RIG TWELVE MEET Urbana won its fifth Big Twelve track meet in seven years and set four new records at Springfield, May 2, compiling a total of 29 points to nose out Peoria Central by two points. Although he was probably aided by tin wind. Crain Portman stepped a truly sensational hundred in 9.7 seconds and the 220 in 21.2 seconds. Irving Seely established the only field record of the meet, when lie vaulted 11 feet 10% inches to win that event. The fourth record was set by the half mile relay team—Barth, Hoot, Faulkner, Portman—when it lowered the old record of 1 :M4.2. set by Urbana in 1926. to 1 :30.6. This was the final event of the meet and enabled Urbana to overcome the two point lead which Peoria Central enjoyed. Faulkner and Hoot with a second and third in the low hurdles, Barth with a fourth in the quarter, and Portman with a second in the broad jump were the other Urbana point winners. It was a great day for Urbana. Ntncty-onc DISTRICT MEET On a water soaked track, which made record breaking performance diffi- cult, Urbana completely outclassed the teams from twenty-one other towns to win their fifth district championship in the past six years. The following table shows the number of points garnered by each team: .06 Tolono 6 -21 � 2 St. Joseph 6 .18 Kankakee 6 .15 Onarga. 5 15 Momence 4 Vo .13 Gilman 4 .12 Allerton 3 .10 Danville 2 .10 Cissna Park.. 2 . W St. Anne 1% Roberts vl The scoring for Urbana was done entirely by six boys, and here is the way they did it. Port man contributed ten points to the total when lie led the field to the tape in the 100-yard dash, being timed in 10.1 seconds, and when he again stepped away from his competitors in tin 220. John Barth captured the quarter mile in the good time of 50 seconds, add- ing five more to Urbana s total score. Gordon Faulkner was forced to give all he had to win the 220-yard low hurdles, while his team-mate. Edgar Root, placed third. John Amerman also contributed three points with a third place in the javelin throw. As was expected Irving Seely won the pole vault easily. The height of his winning vault was 10 feet, 10 inches, the slippery condition of the runway handicapping the performers. To complete the day the relay team won first place. The quartet was composed of Barth, Faulkner, Root, and Portman. The winning of the district meet made the Urbana team eligible to com- pete in the State Interscholastic the following Saturday. STATE INTERSCHOLASTIC- MEET Urbana’s five-man track team entered the state meet virtually unheralded, but emerged a close third, having made the best showing of any down-state team in recent years. First honors went to Oak Park with 17 points; Maine Town- ship High took second place with 14% points; and Urbana was a strong third with an even 14 hard won markers. As in previous meets, Crain Portman accumulated the hulk of the score, winning the 100-yard dash and placing a close second in the 220. A strong wind slowed the runners, but did not make the competition any less keen. Portman had to heat Herman of Oak Park, winner of both dashes at Stagg’s national meet last year, hut he proved equal to the task. Irving Seely earned 3% points by ticing for first in the pole vault with three other hoys, the bar being at 11 feet 11 inches when they finished. The relay team, composed as usual of Barth, Hoot. Faulkner, and Portman. earned the other two points for Urbana, placing fourth. Barth did not draw a good position in the quarter and was forced to run around a number of other runnei s on the turn, finishing just too far hack to count on the score. Urbana fans are congratulating themselves that Crain Portman left Maine Township High School to enroll at Urbana this year. Hast year he made a real reputation for himself and upheld it this season.

He swam the 100- yard free style and was also a mem- ber of the medley relay team which won second place in the Bi?i Twelve Conference meet. Captain John Hatch was high point man for Urbana and was most val- uable to the team. He won first in the 4 0-yard free style at the Big Twelve Conference meet and he also placed first in this event in every dual meet. (Joorge Phillips was one of the two Juniors to win his letter this year. He tied for second place in the breast stroke at the Conference meet, and he also swam on the medley relay team which took second at the same meet. Marcus Cord made the team and won his letter this year as a Junior. He was Urbana's one and only fancy diver. This event requires somewhat more practice than the strokes and Marcus worked hard and improved rapidly. SWIMMING Last year all but one of the varsity swimmers were graduated. This left a rather weak and inexperienced team. This year’s team had a heavier schedule than usual, competing in six dual meets and the Conference meet, while in previous years Urbana has only swum in four dual mete and the Conference. The team consisted mainly of underclassmen. This fact makes future possi- bilities for Urbana swimming teams quite hopeful. Urbana met Danville for the first meet and received a decisive defeat. Dan- ville invariably has a strong team and always ranks first or second in the Con- ference. Swimming is considered a major sport at Danville and the high school includes a beautiful pool. Urbana competed against Danville later in the season and lost again. In the two dual meets with Champaign, Urbana was outswum both times. Urbana also met Peoria Central and was likewise defeated. During the second semester Urbana improved rapidly. We won over Strcator and placed third in the Big Twelve Conference meet which was a real victory. Clark Root coached the team, and the fact that Urbana developed so well throughout the season and ended up so splendidly speaks for his coaching. Ninety-five (ierimnit. Hill. Burr, Fngely.

With two of last year’s varsity players back again Urbana completed an undefeated season. Golf is coming into prominence more and more at Urbana, and it is hoped that in the near future it will rank up among the other sports. The Urbana team was fortunate in having the Urbana Country Club course for practice. Several of the meets were held here and the Urbana golfers easily underscored their opponents. The two veteran players on the team were Elton 11 ill and John Barr. The new team elected John Barr as captain, and he has proved a good leader. The four regular players who participated in every meet were John Barr, Elton Hill, Edwin Hodges, and Clem Gerhardt. They had no regular coach this year, but seemed to get along pretty well without one. Urbana met Champaign in its first match on April 15, winning by a score of 9 to 3. A few days later they again defeated the Maroon quartet, 8l o to 3 . Danville was outplayed by the same score on April 18th. The Lincoln team proved no match at all for our sharp shooters, the score being Urbana 10, Lin- coln 1. On April 29th our boys once more trounced Danville by the same score as before. 8 to 3J . In the District Meet Gerhardt qualified and went on to place ninth in the State, a very creditable showing, considering that he was playing against boys from Chicago who have played many courses. Each of the four hoys composing the team played good golf all season. While nobody broke par, they were all playing in the 80’s about every match, which is good enough golf to make most of the regular golf bugs of the country envious. No matter how good the opposition was. it seemed that the Urbana lads could muster enough skill to win when it was necessary. Mncttf-gfx BASKETBALL The annual girls’ basketball tournament was begun on November 18 this year. The tournament was of the Round Robin type, each class team playing two games with each of the other teams. The first game played was between the Juniors and Sophomores. Wilma Brown, Frances Portman, Eleanor Nixon, Myrna Kuster, Pauline Floro, and Mary Elizabeth Blaisdell made up the Junior team. The Sophomore lineup consisted of Mae Prevette, Jeanette Weeks, Ruth Sinnott, Ruth Cogdal. Josephine Bennett, and Betty Knight. The game was close and the final score was 24 to 20 in favor of the Juniors. The Senior-Freshman game was a close contest and the final score was Seniors 17. Freshmen 15. The personnel of the Senior team consisted of Wilma Rankin. Helen Russell. Catherine Hesselsehwerdt. Juanita Bell, Josephine MeAulev, and Corabel Cowman. Those on the Freshman team were Mar- jorie Stephens, Charlotte Weeks. Cecelia Sandwell, Rhoda Collins, Dolores Royer, Marjorie Portman, June Mershimer, and Marjory Zink. In the Seniors’ second game they received an upset from the Sophomores and the resulting score was Sophomores 17, Seniors 11. In the Junior-Freshman game the Freshmen beat the Juniors 20 to 12. The Seniors won over the Juniors by one point with a score 22 to 21, and also beat the Freshmen by one point, the score being 17 to 16. In the Seniors’ other two games, they were victorious over the Sophomores, 28 to 10 and over the Juniors, 26 to 23. The Seniors lost only one game while the other teams lost two or more. This gave the championship to the Seniors. Juanita Bell was captain of the Senior team and she played side center. Helen Russell, a forward on the championship team, was high scorer of the tournament. Top Kmc: Brownrll. McAuloy. Ku U'll, llra elHrhwcrdt, Busoy. First Kmc: I.owinan, ituukin, KnrQuhnr.

The games were interrupted by other ac- tivities but the girls enjoyed a successful season. Miss Brow- nell. physical education instructor, helped the girls a great deal, showing them ways of playing that were very useful and clever. This year a very unusual thing happened—the freshmen won the tournament. They had an exceptionally good team. Their team work was. perhaps, one of the main factors in their successful playing. They kept the hall in the air. passing it over the net several times before a point was made. The captains of the teams were: Freshmen, Charlotte Weeks; Sophomores, Josephine Bennett; Juniors, Eleanor Nixon; Seniors, Mattie Miller. The winning team was composed of Charlotte Weeks, Marjorie Zink. June Mershimer. Lillian Moss. Marjorie Portman, Cecelia Sand- well. Delores Royer. Marjorie Stephens, and Rhoda Collins. Volleyball proved to la a thrilling and interesting game to the many girls who participated in it even though they were new at it. The freshmen had al- ready had some experience in volleyball at Thorn burn. The seniors had perhaps the best team next to the freshmen. They might have won the tournament with a little more experience at playing volleyball. The same senior girls that dis- tinguished themselves in basketball played on the volleyball team. The spirit to win dominated every team and each girl knew that for her team to be a success she must be alert at all times. The games were played at night so that more girls could take part.

Ninety-nine THE APRIL PAGEANT The annual pageant, sponsored by the Girls’ Athletic Association, was held on April 17. in the Urbana High School auditorium. The pageant was entitled “The Golden Age” based on Marmion’s poem. “Legend of Cupid and Psyche” and was divided into six epic episodes: The Wrath of Venus, Meeting of Cupid and Psyche, The Seed of Mistrust Sown, The Ordeals of Psyche, The Underworld Adventure, and Cupid’s Petition Before Jove. Psyche, daughter of the king and queen of Lusiuia, excelled all other earth maidens and even the goddess of Love and Beauty, Venus, in beauty and grace. This aroused the anger of Venus, who commanded her son, Cupid, to strike Psyche. Cupid, instead, also fell under Psyche's power. His love for the earth maiden, however, resulted in dire consequences, and lie finally humbled himself before the throne of Jove and sought to have Psyche immortalized. The queen of the pageant, Catherine 1 lesselschwerdt. was elected by pop- ular vote. Psyche was played by Patricia Busey. and Cupid by Gretlia Pierce. Other leads were played by Roberta HI vis, Josephine Bennett. Maryellen Eade- baugh, Bernice Cofi'man, Elinore Nixon, Edna Sanders, and Corabel Bowman. Many girls participated in the group dances. The production was under the direction of Miss Marian Brownell and Miss Lorene Lair. Due to their unremitting efforts ami the cooperation of those taking part the pageant was a success. Charles Anderson, Max Meadows, Katherine Smith. Martha Roney, Eliza- beth Comstock, Ivan Crawford, and Charles Moore served on the scenery and property committee. The pianists were Jean Gougler, Marjorie Stephens, Doris Vance, Wilma Brown, and Miss Lair. Costume committee: Mary Current and Rachel Smith. Advertising: Eliza- beth Roller. Program: Madelene Cates. The ushers were Marjorie Prucha, Lola Fairchild, Madelene Cates, Myrna Kuster. Irene Rcbman. Mary Current, Thelma Empson. Maxine Davis, Edna Koller, Ruth Appleman, Fern Burr, Isabel Mattingly. Naomi StelTv, Mildred Towner, and Rosemary Caldwell. Our annual pageant has always been held in Mav and called the May Fete, but this year it was decided to have it in April so other athletic events could be held in May.

One Hundred Four ECHO STAFF The Echo this year was in danger of being discontinued due to financial diffi- culties. But after two vigorous campaigns sponsored l v the staff', the students re- sponded by loyally supporting the paper. It was necessary to secure more student subscriptions than usual this year because of the scarcity of advertising. Frances Baldwin was editor the first semester but because of poor health she was forced to resign the editorship. This responsible position was given to Olin Browder. He showed his capability by editing an exceptionally good paper. Wal- ter Still deserved a great deal of credit as business manager in making the Echo financially well-off. Tin advisers.

The six van iu’ken Kennedy, special assemblies which everyone enjoyed were also the re- rrc idn,t sponsibilities of the Student Council. The duties of Council members are to do at all times whatever is possible to improve and aid the school. They also explain to their home rooms for the benefit of new students the meaning, purpose, and work of the organization. The second semester. Magazine Week was sponsored by the Council, under the splendid guidance of our advisers. Every member thoroughly enjoyed taking part in this activity. They only hope that the future Council representatives get as much pleasure and interest from their work as the 1930-31 members. M iss Ricketts, the faculty adviser, was very helpful.

Miss Fisher has the interests of the club at heart and the success of the club’s doings has been due in great part to her efficient management. The girls have en- joyed working with her and everyone has cooperated nicely. Primarily a social club, the main events of the year were planned to give students a good time, help new students get acquainted, and establish a friendly spirit among different classes. The membership drive early in the fall resulted in a big membership of over half the girls in school. One of the first events of the year was the Big and Little Sister Party.

In this way everyone got more widely acquainted and the freshman girls felt they had someone to help them get into the spirit of the high school. Initiation of the freshmen took place at this party and all the girls played games and took part in relays. The night of the Thanksgiving game a dance was given for the football team. The second annual “Ditch Diggers Dance. ’ a post exam jubilee, was held in February to celebrate the end of the first semester. All the dancers came dressed in old clothes and en- joyed games, dancing, and picnic lunches. Several matinee hops were given and well attended. Pep assemblies were planned before important football and basketball games. The presentation of comic games and dialogue skits amused the student body and also served to arouse the school spirit. The girls' cheering section was con- tinued. Our cheer leaders were Elinor Nixon and do Bennett. Most of the block “I”' at the Champaign game was made up of K. K. girls.

This began a series of activities. The next big social event was the Christmas Party which was held December 13 at the Wesley Foundation. At this party all of the first year Latin students and new members were initiated. The oath was given by the Pro Consul. After the business part was over, the social period began. The club members were entertained with bunco or bridge. Surprise gifts were given out by the Pro ('onsul of the club. During the second semester, the club put on a very interesting and instruc- tive project. Slides were shown which gave the Latin students the opportunity to see the amusements, home, dress, and social life of the Homans. Also, studies about the life of Virgil were given. An assembly was held celebrating Virgil’s two thousandth birthday. This assembly proved to be quite unusual and was really enjoyed by everyone. The club with the aid of Miss Kirk, the adviser, put on a Roman banquet. Top How: Phillips. WelsUrer, S. Smith, N Gourley. I� . Edward . (5. Parker, Fruit, N. Morgan, Honey. PIneicomc, I .

When the club was organized the following officers were chosen to take charge for the year: President_____________________George Gladding Vice-President_______________Eleanor Nixon Secretary__________________Christine Buchholz Treasurer____________________Chester Keller The two French teachers, Miss Webber and Miss .John- son. acted as club sponsors. An entertainment committee com- posed of Josephine Bennett, David Lineicome, and Margaret Gault was appointed by the president. They planned pro- grams for the regular meetings and social entertainments. Programs have been quite varied this year. French plays were studied and translated. ‘‘Rosalie.’ a French play, was translated and presented by some of the members. At another meeting Christine Buchholz. who spent last year in Paris told of some of her experiences. She told something about French customs, dress, and manner of living as compared to ours. Group singing proved to be entertaining in French as well as in English. Club members feel that the aims of the organization have been fulfilled. They understand and appreciate the French language more than they would just in class. Top Rotc: Hodden. Cosdnl, Waxier. Webber. Lincicontc, I.ee. Flaninsain. Hollingsworth. Kerr, promo. Miles.

They were: President______________________________John Bourgois Vice-President_______________________Harold Bourgois Secret a ry_____________________Ma ry Cady Treasurer______________________Rhoena Jones The German Club was made up of members of the Ger- man classes. Its purpose was to promote interest in the lan- guage and broaden the students' knowledge of the people of Germany and their customs. Programs were planned with this aim of the club in mind. Professor Williams of the University Department of German gave an interesting talk on his trip through Ger- many. He illustrated it with slides of the Black Forest re- gion and pictures showing the dress and homes of the peasants. Plays were studied and presented in German to increase familiarity with the use of com- mon idioms. Club members were also active in a more social way. In November the club gave a wiener roast on the Country Club grounds. A Christmas bunco party was enjoyed by club members and their guests. Christmas carols were sung in German at one of the meetings. Many of them are well known in English, but were first written in German. Miss Ricketts was club sponsor. She has been adviser since the club was or- ganized and has contributed largely to the success of the club. Top Hoic: I'laoe. Martin, Collins. Wwks. Hieronymus. Kmpson.

One Hundred Fourteen IOTA ALPHA GAMMA Early in the fall, members of the Art Club met to select officers for the com- ing year. The following people were appointed to the offices: President___________________Roberta Elvis Vice-President_________Constance Oak wood Secretary-Treasurer______Gertrude Parker Adviser____________Miss Margaret Mowrey The purpose of the club is to sponsor exhibitions of good pictures and to cultivate an understanding and enjoyment of fine art. An exhibit of 150 famous masterpieces was held in the Library, November 10-14. These tine reproductions had the color and atmosphere of their famous originals. With the proceeds from this exhibit, two beautiful pictures were pur- chased for the school. From time to time, the members of the club attended some interesting art exhibits at the University. One of the most enjoyable things the club worked on this year was the miniature oriental garden project. Diminutive streams and lakes; mountains that rise and fall in the fancied distance; an entire oriental village—all created in a small dish or bowl. The miniature ornaments gave us a wide field to try our skill. Figures of men. bridges, boats, and pagodas were all hand-fashioned and colored true to oriental life. The Art Club is eagerly looking forward to carry- ing on this work next year. Koukhta Hr.vi8, President Top How: Primford, I.iivenluuron. O'Donnell, Mooneoh, B. Smith. Young, Gorman, Milos.

The officers for this year were: Captain_________________________Miss Wood Lieutenant________________________Dorothy Miller Robin Hood--------------------------Orian Lemon Scribe_________________Gertrude Wheeler What higher goal could be set by any group of girls than the development of character and pursuit of happiness! The Girl Scouts have this for their goal and are always striving toward it. At their meetings, instruction has been given to help them to live up to their motto. “Be Prepared, ’ and to be of help in the home and to the community. The Girl Scouts, through wholesome recreation in the outdoors have learned many of the secrets of nature and the principles of good sportsmanship. Miss Miller, the lieutenant, instructed the girls in archery and a contest was held in the spring. Most of the girls have worked 11� is year and expect to receive Merit badges at the Court of Awards in May. Mary Cady was presented with the Letter of Commendation and both she and Orian Lemon expect to be Ragle Scouts soon. Miss Wood, a member of the high school faculty, was tin Captain, so called in Scout language, otherwise known as adviser. Miss Wood, although a new member of the faculty and new to the students, has adapted herself very well to the group of girls. Sin has worked diligently with the scouts and they found her a very good adviser. ORIAN I,KM KX, PrenMent Top I tote: Curler. McrslilnuT. Cml.v. Zink. PI rut Hote: Ha.vi-s, MIiiit, l.� 'in ii. Wood.

The club began its program this year with a fair en- rollment ; the officers were elected the previous year. They are: President_________________Lewis 1 lildebrand Vice-President__________________________Paul Wood Secretary_____________________________George Pennell Treasurer_____________________________Donald Kirby Reporter________________________________Jake Sinnott The organization was composed entirely of boys who were either farm boys or persons who had taken the agricul- tural course. At the meetings, speeches of interest to the agriculture students were delivered by Mr. Rice, Mr. Nolan. Mr. Rucker, and by men from the department of agriculture at the University of Illinois. Many of the meet- ings were followed by athletic hours. During the year, the club sponsored an oyster supper, Father, Mother, and Son Banquet, and a wiener roast. A great part of the success of the organization was due to the efforts of the advisers, Mr. Lawrence. Mr. Reddy, and several University students who served as practice teachers. II is hoped that next year's classes will carry on the movement that, has been developed by these students and that the Ag Club will prosper and grow stronger each year just as other student organizations have done.

On ' Hundred Twenty LORELEI The Girls’ Honorary Swimming Club was organized a few years ago and has been one of the active organizations of Urbana High. The officers of the club were elected at the beginning of the term. They were: President_________________Corabel Lowman See ret a ry________________Wilma Rankin The Lorelei derived its name from a myth concerning a German mermaid by that name who enchanted all of the sea- men by her beauty and singing. While sitting on the steep banks of the Rhine River, she would comb her golden hair and sing to the seamen. The seamen, overcome, would try to climb the steep banks and failing in this would fall back into the river. The emblem of the club is a mermaid in the shape of a “I7’ and is given to each member upon her admittance to the club. A member must be able to meet the following requirements: swim live lengths of the pool; one surface dive: bob ten times; three dives; three strokes for form; and four practices. They must make a passing grade of 85. The new members of the club this year were: Frances Portman, Marjory Portman. Jeanette Weeks, Charlotte Weeks, and Ruth Sinnott. Life saving was taken up during the last semester. The girls learned some very useful holds and carries. The Lorelei had quite a few swimming parties and entertainments. Practices were held on Tuesday and Thursday of every week. The Lorelei is a branch of G. A. A. and counts for credit towards a “U.” It is under the direction of Miss Brownell. lop Itow: Quinton, BltklKdoll, Brownell. F. I'ortninn, Busoy, Bonnott, Cody. F rti How: 1.

MUSIC Music is one of the most beautiful ways of bringing pleasure both to those who take part in rendering it and to those who listen. The curriculum at Urbana offers classes in band, orchestra, glee clubs, and music ap- preciation. All these organizations have varied libraries and popular repertoires. Urbana lias always been fortunate in obtaining excellent music directors. This year Captain 0. T. Overgard was superintendent of music in Urbana schools. Captain Over- gard directed the band, orchestra, and girls’ glee club. Mr. F. M. Vierow taught music appreciation and directed the boys’ glee club and mixed chorus. Captain Overgard and Mr. Vierow have devoted a great deal of time and effort to mak- ing our music at Urbana better as well as more enjoyable. This year was a busy one for all connected with the music department. The band gave a series of concerts before the contest and gave an out of town concert. The orchestra played for Parent- Teachers meetings and plays. Glee club members sang for school and town pro- grams. Instrumental and vocal ensembles furnished music on various occasions. Although Urbana'S musical organizations have been organized more re- cently than those in most Illinois high schools, they are up to the standard set by the others. In competition of all kinds we have won honors and established a name for our school musically. The programs and special music furnished by students in music activities deserve commendation and Urbana is proud of her work along this line. DRAMA CAPTAIN OVKHOAHl). Munic One of the earliest means of expression was through drama. Primitive raees enjoyed acting out events of their everyday life and adding ceremony to festivi- ties by dramatic presentations. Today, drama has become one of the foremost develop- ments of the high school extra curricular activities. The old appeal has grown stronger and our modern audiences thoroughly enjoy the comedies, tragedies, and satires realis- tically presented by our high school dramatics classes. Students who have taken part in plays have had good training which was received in an enjoyable way. Stage and property workers have also had valuable experience. The plays presented this year offered a wide variety. The .Junior play. “The Mummy and the Mumps,” was a comedy, directed by Miss Lair. The faculty play, “Skinner’s Dress Suit.” gave students an opportunity to see their instructors off their dignity in a riotous comedy. “Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall,” was a costume play of Elizabethan times. It was presented in March by the dra- matics classes. The Senior play, “.Jonesy,” closed the year successfully. In ad- dition to the big plays, one act plays were given in assemblies and also at club meetings in both Urbana and Champaign. For many years Urbana has had a very fine dramatic sponsor and coach. Mrs. Hamilton may feel that her efforts were not in vain after the successful production of the plays we have had this year. Miss Lair and Miss Fisher proved to he able coaches by their presentation of the Junior play. Mas.

Band members have taken a mutual interest in raising the standards of this organization and under Cap- tain Overgard’s direction much fine work has been accom- plished. Some of the activities of the band this year have been providing music for athletic events and parading for the Chamber of Commerce in Crbana and at Homer. Several concerts were given in Urbana and Champaign, and one at Monticello. The band also played for Pa rent-Teachers meetings during the year. Our band offered competition in the annual contest in this state. Band soloists and ensembles also represented Crbana in the contest. Crbana High School was well represented in the Big Twelve Massed Band which assembled in Springfield in May. The band members have enjoyed two theater parties, a hayrack ride, and a wiener roast during the year. Hon limviUTrii, President Toi Row: Tenhaeff. Miller, A. Smith, II. Smith. Seovill. Hubbard.

Last spring the following officers were elected: President___________Elizabeth Bilsborrow Vice-President___________Virginia Church Secretary__________________Miriam Savage Treasurer____________________Ruth Mosher The librarians were Arthur Connard and II. C. Davis. This year the orchestra did not enter any contest as it has in previous years, but many of the members were used in the band. During the year the orchestra became quite popular and was much in demand to play for banquets, meetings, and plays. Cnder the able direction of Captain Overgard. tin or- chestra furnished music for ‘‘Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall. the Style Show, Parent-Teacher meetings, and Chamber of Commerce, Kiwanis, and Farm Bureau banquets. During the second semester the orchestra played a concert in Montieello. During April a series of weekly programs was broadcasted over the radio station WILL. Urbana High School was well represented in the All-State Orchestra. Those who played were: Elizabeth Bilsborrow, string bass; William Seovill, french horn: Patricia Busey, flute; Harold Tenhaefl'. bass; Bob Hieronymus, flute; Ruth Mosher, 'cello; Virginia Church, violin.

One Hundred Ticenty-flve GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB The Girls’ Glee Club was not fully organized until the second semester when the following officers were elected: President__________Mary Elizabeth Williams Vice-President______________Grace Fairchild Secretary-Treasurer_____________Orian Lemcn The Librarians appointed for the first semester were Doris Vance and Ellen Rankin; for second semester were Bernice Coffman and Martha Webber. The accompanist for first semester was Jean Peabody and for the second semester was Doris Vance. Urbana High was represented in the Illinois High School Chorus by Mary Elizabeth Williams, Betty Smith, Betty Bauer, and Grace Fairchild, Sopranos; and Oretha Pierce, Martha Webber and Orian Lemen, Contraltos. The Club planned to give a concert with the Orchestra and Boys’ Glee Club but it had to be cancelled. In the second semester the election of officers increased the club activities. A successful St. Patrick’s Day Hop was held on March 20. All the musical or- ganizations cooperated in giving a big evening dance which was held in the Spring. A selected group from the Glee Club entered the Big Twelve at the end of the year and several girls entered as soloists. Selected groups sang at various places and a concert was presented in the Spring. Top Hotc: Hundley. Webber, Fletcher. Harris. Tramp. K. Smith. It. Smith. Stiven. Itritt, Leonard.

One Hundred Twenty-sir BOYS’ GLEE CLUB Last fall the Boys’ Glee Club organized and elected the following officers: President___________________John Peacock V ice-1 resident----------Max Meadows Secretary-Treasurer_________Marion (llendy Hill Browder worked as librarian and Virginia Church played the accompaniments the first semester. The accom- panist for the second semester was Mary Mills. The club is made up of about twenty-five boys who re- hearse every afternoon. A double «piartet, made up of boys picked from the glee club, made a number of appearances throughout the year. They furnished a special music for club meetings and sang at different churches. Virginia Church accompanied the boys the lirst semester and Van Dusen Kennedy played for them the second semester. The boys’ glee club was entered in the Conference meet of the Big Twelve. Vocal soloists also entered the contest this spring. On various occasions the entire club furnished music for events at school and holiday programs in town. Plans were made to give programs at the grade schools and Thornburn. There were possibilities that the club would broadcast. Aside from the enjoyment derived from singing, the boys feel that time spent in the Glee Club has proved of value. They have received excellent train- ing and an appreciation for good music under the able leadership of Mr. Vierow. John I'kaoook. I’reatdent Toil It air: Greenwell. Chapman, Kennedy, IVncock.

One Hundred TipcnOj-acvcn NATIONAL ORCHESTRA Urbana High was very well represented in various lines of musical activity this year. In November the All-State Orchestra and Chorus assembled at the University and we had representatives in both groups. The North Central Division of the National High School orchestra met in Des Moines the third week in April. The orchestra was conducted by Dr. J. E. Maddy and Henri Verbrugglien. Elizabeth Bilsborrow, William Scovill. Van Dusen Kennedy, and Bob Hieronymous played in the orchestra. Summer sessions of the National Orchestra are held at the camp at hiter- loehen, and Urbana was represented here also. DOUBLE QUARTET Perhaps the most popular ensemble this year was the boys’ double quartet. It was organized this fall under the direction of Mr. Vierow and appeared on programs throughout the year. The double quartet is made up of eight boys and two sing each part. They are Merill Leister and Nowlin Morgan, first tenors; Joe (’arson and Gayle Hol- lingsworth, second tenors; Bill Browder and Donald Faust, baritones; Max Meadows and AI Smith, basses. Virginia Church accompanied the singers the first semester and Van Dusen Kennedy played the accompaniment the second semester. SAXOPHONE SEXTET Last year the Saxophone Sextet proved so popular an ensemble that it was continued this year. Practically the same personnel was used this year and the sextet was composed of the following boys: Gene Weisiger, first alto; Donald Alberts, second alto: Walter Still, third alto; Robert Gundlock, tenor; Chuck Anderson, baritone; and Dale Harvey, bass. The sextet used “Humoresque’’ by Dvorak. “Sextet from Lucia,” and “Twilight in the Mountains” on their pro- grams. This music ensemble fitted in as entertainment for various occasions. Gene Weisiger directed the group in rehearsal with Captain Overgard’s and Mr. Vierow’s help. Hnrvoy, Anderson, Gundlock, Alberts, Still, Weisiger Out' Hundred Twrnty-elght STRING QUINTET Early in the fall several orchestra members organized the string quintet. The ensemble consisted of one instrument from each section of the orchestra and the personnel was as follows: Rachel Smith, first violin; Miriam Savage, second violin: Leonard Sanders, viola; Ruth Mosher, cello; and Elizabeth Bilsborrow. bass. Captain Overgard and Mr. Vierow trained the quintet. This small en- semble proved very popular for furnishing music for banquets, playing in small rooms and between acts of plays. Those in the quintet received much valuable playing experience, and at the same time got a great deal of enjoyment from it. HORN QUARTET Ensembles composed of players from one section of the band or orchestra were a new development this year. One of the prominent organizations of this type was the horn quartet. The four horns playing in parts proved very effec- tive and the ensemble was well received. The boys in the horn quartet were: William DeTurk. Robert Yapp, Donald Oehmke. and George McCoy. They entered their ensemble in the state contest in April. Captain Overgard and Bill Scovill coached the boys in their interpre- tation of their contest number. WOODWIND QUINTET The woodwind ensemble was one of last year’s groups which continued work this year. Two of the players in last year’s quintet, which won the na- tional contest, played this year. They were Van Dusen Kennedy, bassoon, and Bill Scovill, French horn. The new members of the group were Miriam Savage, oboe; Elizabeth Bilsborrow, clarinet; and Bob Hieronymus. Mute. The number used in the state contest was Scherzo’’ from “Yicrtes Quin- tet” by Sohick. The quintet played on the program at Monticello. Under the direction of Mr. Vierow and Captain Overgard the players de- rived a great deal of pleasure from their music. Hieronymus, Snvngc. Scovill. Kennedy. Kllsl� orro v One Hundred Twenty-nine DOROTHY VERNON OF 11 ADDON HALL From year to year the dramatic classes have advanced from the simple three act plays to the more complicated four act dramas. “Dorothy Vernon of Had- don Hall” was the most difficult play ever attempted by the high school, but it turned out to be the greatest success. Roth the matinee and evening perform- ances were staged without a flaw. A great deal of time and care was spent on the scenery, and the result was a beautiful and very picturesque stage setting. The school electricians were re- sponsible for the splendid lighting effects. “Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall ” was a historical play, taking place dur- ing the reign of Queen Elizabeth. The first and fourth acts were staged on the terrace of an old English castle. The second and fourth acts were set in tin interior of Haddon Hall and Rutland Castle. The costumes, together with the supreme acting made the play far above the average high school theatrical. From Queen Elizabeth in all her majestic splendor down to the greasy aproned kitchen boy, all were arrayed in complete costumes befitting an ancient English court. The part of Dorothy Vernon as played by Eugenia Freemon was exceptionally well done. Eugenia put her own vivaciousness and wit into the part that so well fitted her in a way that thoroughly charmed her audience. Oretha Pierce with her poise and splendid carriage made Queen Elizabeth much more than a mere figure in history. The hero, taken by Gordon Faulkner, seemed very much alive and able to cope with the dangerous situations. Gordon, with his athletic and well built physique, made a good appearance in his doublet and hose. The entire cast included: Eugenia Freemon, Gordon Faulkner, Morre'l Bar- ber, Oorabel bowman, Oretha Pierce. Esther Speck, Newton Walker, «John Pea- cock. Rob Bowditch, Olin Browder, Miriam Noel, John Barth, Hildalice Saddoris, Mary Jo Soovill, and Charlotte Beard. Rut no matter how good a cast, tin. play would never he a success without the excellent coaching of Mrs. Hamilton. Onr Huixlrn! Thirty STUNT SHOW The first Stunt Show in three years was held at 1’rbana High School, Thurs- day evening, February 12. Competition was very keen and many feel that it should be made an annual affair. The Sophomores, who presented the winning stunt, “Beauty A La Carte.’’ had an exceedingly clever and original idea. The setting was in a beauty shop at midnight which was carried out in detail. One of the most outstanding features of the act was the dialogue; it was exceptionally good. There were lots of takeoffs on people around school. The advisers for the Sophomore act were Miss Brownell. Miss McClurg, Miss Wood, Miss Lawson, Mr. Hallam, and Mr. Tilbury. The Sophomores will have their name engraved on a silver shield. The Freshman stunt was called “Shades of Barnum and Bailey. The clowns were especially cute and the features were excellent. The Faculty ad- visers were Miss Webber, Miss Biedermann, Mr. Murphy, Miss Thomas, Mr. Nolen, Mr. Boyd, and Mr. James. Many felt after the first stunt that the Seniors would win. The theme was so different and the skeletons and ghosts made shivers run up and down your spine. The name of it was “Curriculitis.’’ The advisers were Miss Nelson. Miss Rompel, Miss Johnson, Miss Bullock, and Mr. Horner. The Junior stunt, “Cut! Shoot! Cut! was the dress rehearsal for a movie in Hollywood. The scene was in a cabaret. The setting of this stunt was quite effective. The huge black eat with blinking red eves, the paper hats, balloons, confetti and serpentine added greatly to the presentation. A great deal of credit was due not only to the people who actually appeared on the stage, but to the committees who set the stage, helped with costumes, and to the teachers who spent so much time supervising practices, training choruses and finding new ideas. Miss Eyerley served as general chairman of all the stunts. She had a difficult task but was quite successful in her management of the pro- duction. One Hundred Thirty-one JUNIOR PLAY In place of the annual Junior Orph, the Junior class staged a play entitled, “Mummy and the Mumps.” This production was given for the purpose of rais- ing money to finance the Junior-Senior Reception. Out of the entire cast of ten characters, eight made their first appearance as actors. The play was a first elass comedy and all the characters certainly did their part to make it a success. The cast of characters included: David Lincicome, George Phillips. John Peacock, Newton Walker. Lawrence Grecnwell, Pern Nelson. Catherine Corkery, Elinor Nixon, Hetty Thomas, and Bernice Quinton. The setting is laid in a girls’ school. Miss Agatha Laidlow, the principal, is expecting Sir Hector Fish, a noted scien- tist. He arrives in a mummy case to avoid being quarantined for the mumps. He remains in hiding because someone is impersonating him who is in love with one of the students. Things become complicated, mainly through the stupidity of Racket , man of all work. Hut in the end everything is straightened out and the right couples are united. SENIOR PLAY A three-act comedy, “Jonesy,” by Anne Morrison and Peter Hookey was chosen as this year’s Senior play. It was a success in 1929 when produced at the Bijou Theater in New York. The title role, Wilbur Jones, was taken by Olin Browder. Eugenia Freemon as Diana Devereaux, the leading feminine role, was charming. Mrs. Jones was played by Oretha Pierce, Anna Jones by Susan Anderson, and Henry Jones by Robert Bowditch. Pat Busey as Mildred Ellis, Walter Still as Hilly Morgan, and Morell Barber in the role of Stanley Jackson were capable interpreters of their parts. The entire cast was excellent and presented a finished performance. Wilbur Jones has just come home from college and he falls in love with the ingenue of the local stock company. The efforts of his family to prevent an elope- ment result in many amusing and embarrassing situations. The modern costumes contributed to the success of the play. Good staging and lighting completed a fine presentation of an entertaining comedy. FACULTY PLAY “Skinner’s Dress Suit” was presented by the faculty on December 10. in the High School Auditorium. The cast included “Honey Rutherford” played by Miss Lair who was successful in winning her man after she had helped him achieve success. The hero, Skinner, was played by Mr. Hallam. His employers were McLaughlin and Perkins. Mr. Ilornor taking the part of Mr. McLaughlin and Mr. Nolen the part of Perkins. Mr. Briggs, salesman for the firm, was Mr. Eugene Schroth. The last member of the office force was the office boy, Tommy, played by Mr. James. Mrs. McLaughlin was played by Miss Met'lurg. Mrs. Colby, a wealthy social leader, played by Miss Ricketts, and Miss Colby played by Miss Webber gave a charity fete, where Skinner made his first appearance in society. Miss Brownell, Miss Bullock, and Miss Mowrev were guests at the fete. Mr. Jackson, portrayed by Mr. Tilbury was the dissatisfied business man. His wife, Coral, played by Miss Fisher was a “rough diamond” who wanted to get into society. Mrs. Hamilton coached the play and she deserved much credit for the performance. DEBATE Soon after the Christmas holidays, try-outs were held for the varsity de- bating teams, with the English instructors of our faculty acting as judges. Those chosen for the affirmative team were, in order of their speeches: Lawrence Green well, Mary Hitcher, and Ruth Mosher. The negative team included Karl ton Kemp, Martha Rose McOown, and .John Peacock with Rlioena Jones as alter- nate. The question for debate, as chosen by Big Twelve coaches was: Resolved: That Chain Stores Are Detrimental to tlie Community. This question is one of great importance and is widely discussed at the present time. The negative team lost its first encounter to Danville by i.« rkn : i.mh. the decisive score of 4-1. in our auditorium on March 18. Ur- bana was at a disadvantage, having an entirely inexperienced team, while the Danville team was composed of veterans. Our team, having the burden of the proof, was unable to successfully refute the strong arguments presented against the chain store by the Danville team. On March ID our affirmative team met Champaign s negative team at Cham- paign High School. The decision was close with a score of 3-2 in favor of Cham- paign. The affirmative side of this question is extremely hard to defend because it is very difficult to find statements of sufficient authority against the chain store system. Both teams were inexperienced in debating, and although defeated they made a fine showing. Miss Lorene Lair has been our competent coach for the past three years. We owe much to her for the help that she has given us. If.fj Itote: («iwnwrJI, Kemp. I� nir. IVneoek. I'lrut How: Itltrlier, .McCoWU, Mu8hi r, Julies. One Hundred Thirty-three () R ATO RICAL CON TEST Every year an oratorical contest is held at tin state convention of the Build- ing and Loan Association. Each participant must write and deliver his own five minute oration on some phase of the Building and Loan work. During past years Urbana High has always placed high in this contest. This year Olin Browder upheld this record and won another victory for the school at Freeport on October 14. He was presented with a beautiful loving cup bv Eu- genia Freemon who won the contest in Springfield last year. The national meet this year is to be held in Philadelphia sometime during the summer. Olin is a talented speaker and we expect to hear more of him in the future. The contestants are under the direction of Mrs. II. H. Hamilton. BIG TWELVE CONTEST The Big Twelve Contest for 1931 was held in Mattoon on April 17. This year, as always. Urbana High School contestants received high honors. Olin Browder received first in oration. Eugenia Freemon was given first place in extemporaneous speaking and second in interpretative reading. First place in dramatic reading was won by Budgie Spearling. Urbana High has reason to be proud of these people and we only hope to maintain this high standard in the future. Students of Urbana High School have reason to be proud of their public speaking department. Real talent is discovered in these classes. Pupils receive valuable training in thinking and learn to express themselves clearly. It is usually from this department that the people are chosen to represent the school in various contests. Mrs. Hamilton is the able instructor of these classes. She is a great deal more than “just a teacher’ to those who know her. Public speaking is a thing of vast importance and benefit to every indi- vidual, and the boy or girl who goes through school without enrolling in some type of public speaking course is neglecting an important phase of his educa- tion which will be of real value throughout life. STYLE SHOW For the past three years the Rosemary staff has sponsored the presentation of the fall style show. Urbana merchants have cooperated willingly and fur- nished the latest clothes to he modeled hv high school students. This year the setting for the models was a garden. The fall colors used in the decorations set off the models and were also appropriate for the entertainment. Urbana stores which participated in the style show were Kline’s, Mont- gomery Ward and Company, Sholem’s Shoe Store. Harry Little and Company, and Lowensterns. Brash Flower Shop. Prehn's, and Montgomery Ward loaned furniture and palms to complete the stage. Special features were presented by Frances Port man, Betty Rowland. Mary Belle Carpenter, Lawrence Smith and Stanley Chapman, Wilma Brown, and Mary Birelv. Wilma Brown, Jean Peabody, and Betty Moomau were the ac- companists. Those who have attended the style shows have enjoyed them fully and declared each better than the one before.

But no one ever yet could teach A boy like you to watch well out And always know what he’s about; In Physics lab you often work. And while you don't appear to shirk They say one day you had the gall To take a jar of alcohol And seeming ne'er e’en once to think, You poured it boldly down the sink! No one saw you; nor could prove You had ever made a move— You left them one and all to think Donald Dixon’d had a drink! No reason yet could you ever find To account for such an absent mind! 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 see. 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: Walter Gordon Still Robert Dudley Marshall Walt and Bob made quite a hit In the class stunt show with their little bit,— A clever dance, so many said, That it made them grow quite big of head. Said Bob one day. ”1 think we might Put on our show for ’amateur night’;” “O let’s” said Walter, “sure we can”— And then right there they made their plan; But the Orph was so full of friends that night That both the boys had bad stage fright; Their legs just trembled, wouldn’t go. Such a razzing! You may know. The hearts of these two boys just sank; But with their pennies they’ll start a bank! Senior: Donald Troy WikofT With half a dozen auto cars A-sitting round the place,— Any one of which we know Could hit a monstrous pace,— What could Donald ever want What did he think he’d do With that ancient motorcycle Model nineteen'two? He tinkered round with it a bit Then hitched it up one day; It balked and kicked around so much Like a young colt at play We heard it threw him off its back. He landed on the street. He hit upon his head they say. Instead of on his feet. We heard it cost him just two bucks But it wasn't just so funny To have it buck and kick that way So be sold it for two bunnies. Junior: Clara Frances Baldwin Raven locks with eyes of brown Capture every lad in town. But most of all the lads. I ween. The fellows on our basket team. There is a spot in the lower hall Where Frances’ locker’s by the wall. A spot right there in that open space That is a famous trysting place. It Bob’s not standing idly there Gazing at this lady fair With love-light twinkling in his eye While in his heart he heaves a sigh.— Then sure it’s pjdgar, ’scaped from gym. Who fits this lady’s changeful whim, Edgar with his heart awhfrl For favors shown him by this girl. But if 'tis neither, then I'll swear, Gordon will be standing there,— All a-tremble with the fear Steve would find him lingering here! For Steve was sure that all this fight To gain the lady’s favor might Disrupt his team; for jealousy Is ever bad for unity. But the good old team survived, we hear. And this sweet lady shed a tear,— Then with a gesture of disdain Transferred her favors to Champaign! Senior: Kenneth Keith Thomas When the boys went down to Benton On a football trip, they tell. They spent the night at Flora In a middle class hotel: 1 he partitions were a little short Left quite an open space— Thought Kenneth, T will have some fun, Through that open space.” He filled the water pitcher full. And climbed upon a chair.— And threw the water over Thought “Buck” was sleeping there; — Alack, alas, a stranger man Had that adjacent room; One heard him in the morning To the landlord making moan; ”It must have rained right hard, he said Continued on Page HU One Hundred Sixty GOOD OLD SUMMER YOU can enthuse all YOU want to about WINTER sports, but WE’LL vote for the GOOD old summer time.

For my pants were hanging on a chair Of this I hate to speak,— But you can feel it for yourself. I’m mad enough to choke— Just feel them. sir. and you will see That they are wet as soak! Junior: Harry Cordon Faulkner. Cordon thought lie had a date, For every Sunday night.— With her he thought he’d surely rate As no other fellow might. One night he waited there for her As he usually did. at church. But soon he saw. with heart astir, She’d left him in the lurch; That there was standing at her hand A rather handsome Champaign man! Not knowing where to go or turn. And ne’er a thought of time or place Full of anger and concern He slapped her in the face! 'Twas not the end of this sorry tale Or so the story goes; For we have heard this saddened male. Went round with a broken nose! If you ask this lad how’t came about He’ll give some excuse or other.— But the hint has somehow just leaked out. She had an older brother! But many things this lad has done That have brought him much of fame; In plays he's many a laurel won Has gained an artist's name. In basketball and football too He ever played the game, While all the time he always knew His lessons just the same. Senior: William Robert Hamilton Harley Leonidas Tarpenning Vandalia's quite a stretch from here. It’s a full five hours by car; But if one hitch-hikes, he may fear He never will get thar! Bill can tell you how it goes To ‘wiggle for a ride— ’Twas seldom “yes. but many noes — That his requests denied. A ride with this, or t’other man, Then walk a mile or three Brought them just to Effingham, When ’twas quite too dark to see— With half the distance yet to do And time the game should start. And Bill was hungry, weary too— Entirely without heart To venture on—no friends in town And ne’er a bit of kale, And ne'er a place to lay them down So they spent the night in jail! Junior: John Harmon Carson Johnnie stayed at home one day A thing we hate to mention For staying home the way he did Is sure to bring “Detention. But that. said John, is what I like. And this is no pretention, ’Tis easier far than Latin verbs Or Latin noun declensions. In all the courses that I've had I’ve met with much dissension;— But I’d never flunk at all, I'm sure Nor have the least contention If all the studies that. I took Were as easy as ‘Detention’. Senior: Naomi Helen Steffy. A rather useful maid is she Good at office work; She often is on duty And is never known to shirk. With all her lessons to prepare And a mile and a half to walk However, does she And the time With Lowell so much to talk? One sees them on the side-walk One sees them in the hall. To see one without the other Is never done at all! ' Hoot” Cibson would have stolen her Without a ‘by your leave’ Would have carried her clear off. If it hadn’t been for Steve; For he was always close at hand. And called Villars quick to come— But before he ever got there Hoot was on the run! At last it seems quite settled And we’re betting a sure thing That Naomi will appear some day With a diamond ring! Junior: Donald William Dixon. The senior boys crept out one night And raised their old white flag With no one else around in sight; Their eflorts did not lag, I'ntil their '31 was flung To the early morning breeze. But when the Juniors saw it hung They worked as hard as bees, Brought a vaulting pole and push pole too And tried to burn it down— Tho’ that was something very new. The seniors rushed around; They broke the pole, that senior band But the juniors pulled and tore Continued on Page 16G One Hundred .Sixty-four CHARTER A BUS FOR SPECIAL TRIPS ILLINI COACH CO., INC.

But that is only half the tale For the real light came at night The seniors thought they couldn’t fail To keep their honor bright. Rut e’er they climbed e’en half the pole There came, how, no one knows, A stream of water, icy-cold From out the fireman’s hose; Seems Donald got the most of it. And the Juniors got the flag. Now Donald simply has a lit If one mentions that old rag. Senior: Bernard Jefferson Johnson, Elizabeth Fisher Goble. Bernard has two eyes for her. And she has two for him. And they have eyes for no one else. Or else their eyes are dim. Each one can see the other one But neither can see both. If they only could, I’m sure they would— Admit, and nothing loath It would be well, as Burns has said If some good power could give us The “giftie which we seldom have To see ourselves as others see us! Junior: Melville Andrew Youhill. He wants to know the where and why The what and who and when. He’ll question you until you sigh And never stop it then, Especially in History Eight No point gets by his pen. 1 erhaps he doesn’t know every date But he knows just why it’s been. And when he learned the Nobel Prize Was giv’n for deeds for peace— When he learned its monstrous size His wonder never ceased. For why, said he, should any man. Who created dynamite— Give a prize of forty grand To one who doesn't light? Senior: Ruth Loren Wyninger. A little hunch, a little punch Spilled upon the lloor, A little prance, a little dance. Just that and nothing more! But there were none who had no fun When they danced with Ruth that day— Said she and laughed, “that’s where I quaffed But some of it got away! Just step right in, you can but swim—’’ And made them dance right through it— And with her chaff, she made them laugh As none but Ruth could do it! Junior: Eugeuia Lois Freemon. Eugenia’s in the halls so much We’ve always wondered why And always we have noticed She has a roaming eye. She must be hunting something Or somebody it may be. A magazine for her public speech Or perhaps a she or he. Olin met her there one day She asked him if he’d save her. If he’d get a book for her Do her this little favor,— A paper she would like to have, Twould be in 201 — But why not get it for herself? She went with him to the door. “Oh say,” said she. “please will you note. Where Irving Seely’s seated, If he’s next to Frances, I'll admit. I surely will feel cheated.” Senior: Maurice Johnson Shroyer. Are they pimples? No, they’re dimples. Said his friends one day— Little red spots, are those said spots What’s the matter, hey? Farmer shot me, almost got me With his blamed old gun— Had a darn pull, with my arm full So I couldn't run! I'm a-tellin’ that that melon Almost cost my life While the fellows just as well as Left me in the strife— They forsook me,—later took me With a right good will. Without splurgin', to a surgeon— Now they pay the bill! Junior: Helen Louise Russell. Here’s to Helen, we’ve a toast. Every virtue she doth boast— Loyalty to every friend. Energy that hath no end Ne’er a task that’s left undone. Labors often without fun O’er a troublous yearbook page. Undaunted, tho’ she hath no wage! In every test we find her true Sincere and ever constant too. Efficiency in every deed. Resolving that she must succeed. Unseeking honor for her own Seeking just to serve alone. Strong is she in virtues rare. Continued on Pnpr ie,8 One Hundred Sixtp-fiix COLVIN'S MARKET Dealers in CHOICE BEEF, MUTTON, VEAL, PORK, FRESH FISH AND POULTRY 204 W. Main St. Urbana. III.

Mrs. McDaniel, the former Maryellen Radebaugh, was the outstanding society matron of the four-hundred until she was forced to go to India to improve her health. Robert Smith has published a collec- tion of poems entitled “Tender Recollec- tions of Youth Gone By.” which has ob- tained for him the Nobel prize. Some of his best known compositions are dedi- cated to old acquaintances, among them Marjorie Poor, Mattie Miller, Marjorie Fletcher, and Dolores Smith. Elizabeth Bilsborrow has charge of a health camp in the Switzerland Alps and is famous for her work in teaching the children an appreciation of music. She has obtained excellent results. Irving Seely has lost his slim and sylph-like form and is a big. burly butcher, with Gene Freemon as his cashier. A mysterious and apparently penniless customer has left him a fortune amounting to several millions of dol- lars because the beneficent Mr. Seely once allowed him to take a pound of pig's feet on credit. In telling the press of his new experiences in the realm of capitalism, Mr. Seely says that he in- tends to offer his fortune to his cashier as an inducement into matrimony . Josephine McAuley is spending a very noble life as matron of an orphanage, devoting all her time and interests to those poor unfortunates. Charles Anderson has commercialized his talent for picking up fallen fireplaces in stage scenes. He received his train- ing during Dorothy Vernon. Katherine Smith, Dot Farquhar, Har- riett Hamilton, and Orian Lemen have been selected as the Baby Wampus stars of 1941. Olin Browder has recently fallen hope- lessly in love with London's stage cele- brity. Rosie Turner, and is now the hen- pecked husband of a temperamental actress. Morrel Barber has been proclaimed the champion hog-caller of the United States. The same day Mr. Barber won this distinction. Elizabeth Koller won first in a rolling-pin throwing contest. Imrene Lytle placed second. Corabel Lowman third, and Jean Peabody re- ceived honorable mention. High up in the hills of Abyssinia there is an ancient monastery which has never been entered by any except the monks. In a dispatch recently received. I no- ticed that John Oliver, who had entered the monastery in order to escape from a calloused world, had been commended for his translations of Chinese manu- scripts. Oretha Pierce owns an alligator farm in Brazil. A picture with the press no- tice shows Miss Pierce holding an alli- gator’s jaws open, while her head is thrust inside. “They are as gentle as kittens.” she states. Crain Portman and Ike Reynolds have each received a gold watch awarded them for superior salesmanship displayed in selling the anti-blush tonic invented by Robert Bowditch. Mrs. Homer Smith, the former Settle Corson, has just been granted her fifth divorce. It is rumored that her next husband will be Edgar Root. Stanley Henwood has just received the diploma signifying that he is a gradu- ate of Urbana High School. Dick Fulmer, a noted archeologist, has unearthed the skull of an ancient Egyptian king. His wife, the former Edna Sanders, states that she will do- nate the money gained thereby to be used for a pension for disabled sailors. She says she hopes it will prevent Don Dixon and his wife, Mirian Cranmer, from ever being in want. Don is at pres- ent an admiral in the service. Miss Patricia Busey, the famous model of the Scott stores, will soon appear in a style show displaying the very latest things in house dresses. I had finished reading all the dis- patches. I sighed. My reading had brought back memories of my old school days, and I remembered the care-free joyous existence we all once led. Ah! Such sweet memories! I gazed dream- ily out of my window. Across the street a flower vendor displayed his violet, golden, and flaming red flowers. A bril- liant sign announced that the American sensations, Mary Frances Francisco and Helen Beaird, were appearing in the lat- est hit. Ooh. LaLa! A strolling gen- darme, whom I recognized as Van Dusen Kennedy passed my window. I was go- ing to call to him. but at that moment I was interrupted by a stenographer bring- ing in some late dispatches, and when I turned to the window, he was gone. What varied careers my classmates had chosen! Perhaps they had realized their highest ambitions and were happy in their fulfillment. May they ever re- main so.
