Page 7 THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY THE BOARD OF EDUCATION The Hoard of Education is a representative body, responsible for the conduct of the public schools of the district. This body consists of six members and the president, elected at large in the district, all serving for terms of three years. 'Terms of two members expire each year, and the term of the president expires each third year. T he Hoard of Education meets in regular session once each month, and in special session when required, for the transaction of special and urgent business of the district. During the past several years the task of the Hoard of Education has been especially difficult because of decreased property valuations and the difficulty of the people in paying their taxes, due to depressed conditions. In this time the Hoard of Education has made extraordinary efforts to keep its expenditures within its revenues, and at the same time to maintain its educational program at as high standards as possible. 'The people of the district are fortunate in having a Hoard of Education which serves its interests entirely unselfishly and with a sin- gleness of purpose, worthy of the emulation of any other civic body in the community. 'The Hoard of Education does much of its work by standing committees. At the present time there are four committees of the Hoard. 'The members of each committee are as follows: Tkai'hkrs Com m ittkk : Mr. I . J. Keilholz, Chairman Mrs. Ruth Newton Mr. Wallace V. Davis FIX A X CK Co M M ITT KK : Mr. Haul G.

As we raised our eyes eagerly toward the lofty hilltops, a feeling of adven- ture and excitement came over us. Joyfully we began to ascend, pausing from time to time to scan over the immediate views, trying to gaze beyond into the vast spaces where earth and sky apparently meet. As we climbed higher and higher the view became more expansive and our vision became broader and broader. Eagerly we pressed upward; always sure that the vast expanse would be even greater; the view, more beautiful and inspiring. At length we reached a point toward which we had long been striving—a great height, whence we could look far around—above, below, and beyond. We were thrilled by this new horizon, the most vastly beautiful we had yet beheld. Tonight, we, the class of 1937, pause on our journey upward, to look at the path winding far below us over which we have come. Very keenly we appre- ciate now, how the horizon has changed for us in this upward climb. For each of us the view has been different; always colored by the interests and experiences of the individual. Xew views have come from the study and practice of music, art. dramatics, science, and athletics. Working singly or together, we have always had our goal in mind—towering summits, each with its new horizon. Endeavor- ing to master the fundamentals of the curriculum as we climb, we have begun to realize the importance of applying our best efforts and to sense the strength of our own possibilities. Thus encouraged we continue to push onward. The journey so far has been made a congenial, happy one by the friendli- ness and fellowship of our companions and the encouragement and inspiration of our teachers. We are all aware of the power and strength which have come to us by reaching up to the standards and ideals which have been placed before us. And now our paths separate. Some will go this way; others will go that way. But no matter which path we may choose we shall continue upward toward new heights. Upward toward a new goal where we may behold still greater spaces, even more magnificent views, where before, behind, and all around are sights of incomparable beauty—a nczu horizon.

THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY Pace ? 2 SALUTATORY This is the twenty-second commencement exercise that has taken place in this auditorium. Kvery year at about this time the graduating class assembles here to present a farewell program to the teachers, schoolboard. parents, and all the rest of their friends who have helped them through their four important years at high school. Strange as it may seem this farewell program is always called commence- ment. Although it marks the end of our high school days it signifies the begin- ning of a new phase of our career. Some of us will go deeper into the field of education and seek to make our way with the aid of further and higher education. Some will take up different occupations and immediately begin supporting them- selves. While this meeting is the end of our high school days, it is the com- mencement of a richer and fuller life for all of us. Never again will every member of this class be assembled together, so let us take a few minutes to review in our minds the events of our high school days. We have participated in many of the extra-curricular activities, at the same time keeping up our high scholastic standing. We have been represented in every type of activity, athletics, music, dramatics, literature. We hope we have maintained, and even excelled, the high standing in these fields set forth by preceding classes. Without the help and cooperation of the entire faculty, school board, parents, and friends, our high school life would not have been a success, either from the social or educational standpoint. In everything we have tried to do, we have found that all of you here tonight have wholeheartedly supported us. With all these thoughts of deepest appreciation and gratitude, we invite you, teachers, friends, and parents, to join with us in our commencement exercises. Caroi.yn Moore Page 33 THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY STATISTICS After four years of prowling around late at night, early in the morning, and in between, poking into the homes and private lives of the class of 37. we. the statisticians, have arrived at the undisputable con- clusion that the 1937 Senior Class of I’rbana High School is the most unusual, most outstanding, most co- lossal class to have passed through the portals of this famous hall of learning. The graduating class is worth its weight in gold, which would indeed be a lot of gold even if the country is off the gold standard, because the total weight of our illustrious class is approximately four- teen tons, or in round figures equal to four pink elephants. The height of the class of '37 has reached a new peak. If the class stood one on top of the other, (providing the one underneath didn't object) the combined height would reach to the very top of the grain elevator at Mayview. “Joe Blow” Crawford with his six feet, three inches certainly did his part in attaining that record, but Pee Wee Hoy with his five feet two inches, is an all-American drawback. All must agree that we are a talented class after considering that we have within our midst three poets: Laurie Gougler. Jackie Pieper. and Wendell Sharp; four vocalists: Barbara Hillis. Ruth Free- man. Richard Kopiequet. and Marie Vance; and three outstanding artists: Charles Odell, Ruth Benson, and Nadine Carroll. In the field of music, too, our class has done quite well. Most notable among our musicians are Bob Fisher, Elizabeth Schoch, Lee Summers, and Leonard Cole. Science, too. has taken a strong hold. Allen Adams, John Benson, and George Watson are the scientists of the class. We must mention our noted dancer, Nadine Carroll, and the Magician. John Dolch. Then, there are the famous dramatists: Wendell Sharp. Bill Smith, Dorothy Bell, .Mary Ann Clark, Neva West, and Robert Kimpel. The athletes of our class are too numerous to mention. However, some of the outstanding ones are Junior Colbert, Jimmy Stansfield, Jack May. Warren Engle, Harold Good, and Bob Fisher, the latter three being meml ers of the football team which defeated C. 11. S. There are a few transfer students who have become loyal members of the class. Among them are Max Wright. Grant Black. James Smith, and Ida Lu Born. The class has a high scholastic standing. Some of those contributing to the cause were Carolyn Moore, Dorothy Robbins, Marie Vance, Donald Koehler. Mildred Shear, Martha Noel, and Lawrence Gougler. In spite of these intellectual profundities, some of our girls are frivolous enough to get themselves engaged. Some of them try to keep it a secret, but Beverly Slade and Ruth Stone-street don't try to hide the “glass on their left hands. The boys, too, have a few fanciful ideas. At least they seem to kind of relish the idea of being taken un- der the wings of older senior girls like Marie Troticr. Janet Way, Mary Thompson, and Mary Rutherford. As for being an unusual class, we give you a few illustrations of our wide and varied accomplish- ments. There is the charter member of the “Little Orphan Annie Radio Club,” Lola Mae Van Sickle; an excellent cook, Emily Relief Weber; the immaculate gentleman. Louis Watson; the flying hands of our future stenographers. Ruth Williamson, Ruth Brewer, Elaine Scheib, and Roberta Parker; a Greta Garbo coiffure owned by Pat Johns; a true gentleman in all his acts, Clinton Cobb; and the well-known accordianist, Margaret Cochrun. Our class holds scores of world records and titles too. Harold Schroeppel is the world's best magician (in rhet class). Fifty percent of the class of thirty-seven arc finger-nail biters, due to their conscientious scholarly temperaments. We point with pride to our shy. unspoiled class. Over half of our girls who are sweet sixteen have never been kissed. (Perhaps they should change to raspberry lipstick!) Our boys, too, are quite un- worldly. In fact, over half of them don’t date. (The tight wads!) But, of course, we are fortunate to have those handsome boys. Hall Hood, Scott Cleave. Johnnie Britton. Lee Summers, and Bob Fisher to brighten our ranks. Also, Austin Fisher and Nate Hanna have dark wavy hair which appeals to the fem- inine eye. The girls too are not lacking certain characteristics of good grooming. There are Dorothy Hudson’s white teeth, Sylvia Miller’s raven locks, Olive Throckmorton's lovely complexion, and Merle WycolT’s beautifully manicured nails. Since we. the statisticians have always been at the foot of the class, we are in a position to know that at least ninety percent of our class members have corns. That is indeed a record despite the fact that geographers insist upon naming Iowa as the leading corn producer. In view of the evidence presented we feel that you. the jury, must return the verdict. “Guilty of be- ing the most illustrious and outstanding group ever to receive diplomas from Urbana High School.” Signed, Mildred Shear Dorothy Bell THE NINETEEN THI RTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY Page 34 CLASS WILL OF 1937 We, the senior class, having completed our work at Urbana High School, are graduating, some by virtue of general merit and some by request. Being sound of mind and body, we do hereby declare this our last will and testament, abrogating all such former documents that may have been made. W e do, hereby leave our cherished memories and idiosyncrasies to all: To the underclassmen, we leave our ability to control our temper when the teachers rush in front of us in the cafeteria line. T'o the underclassmen on the football squad, the seniors give their best wishes and a large quantity of good luck. Mr. Cobb, our much esteemed superintendent, is the recipient of a bottle of hair tonic so that he will save the price of a toupee in years to come. We leave the love of the girls to “Steve.” We hope that Miss “Millie” Mary Lawson receives a nice, quiet home-room next year so that she will have a chance to relax and rest her nerves after we leave. To Mr. Hadden. Miss Ricketts, and Miss Strohl we give an automatic assembly-excuse-signer. We present to Mr. Carlson, along with a booklet “How Not to Blush”, the future lllini Beauty Queens for practice teachers. Baseball suits are left to Mr. Youmans so that he may have his baseball team next year. For coaching a successful debate team, we are sending to Miss Krieg, orchids. To Miss Gross, John Porter leaves the pictures of his operation. To the chattering sophomores, Frances Long bestows the latest gossip. To Nadine Renner, Beth Schoeh leaves her band boys, knowing that music hath charm. Following the time-honored custom of willing “pug noses, Dot Bell leaves her olfactory organ to Margaret Swengel. hoping that things may even up. John Gregory leaves his “candid camera” habit to anyone who has the nerve John had to take Mrs. Hamilton's picture while she was imitating an affected dowager. T. Barbara Hillis, bequeath my voice and liking for U club presidents to Connie Colvin, knowing that she will put them to good use. Sylvia Miller and Bob Kimpel leave their leads in Beauty and the Beast to Helen Baldwin and Matt I’.usey, knowing that they, too, can please the grade school kiddies. “Sas Stansfield leaves his hop. skip, and jump mannerisms to Homer Hindman to use on the basket- ball floor when Urbana defeats Champaign in the coming cage season. Kathryn Kemvorthy wills her ability to wear red and green at the same time to June Mathews. Mary Rutherford leaves Gordon Gregory to the U. II. S. stage. Charles O’Dell leaves his artistic ability to George Clark, hoping that some good may come of it. Pauline I lesselschwerdt and Frances Hollingsworth leave parts of their lengthy sur-names to those individuals who possess four-letter names. Olive Throckmorton leaves her interest in rushing parties, especially Zeta Tan Alpha, to any junior who is a prospective lllini co-ed. I. Sam Dillavou, bequeath my talent to toot a “gob-stick and my copy of Woman is Fickle for said instrument, to Stuart Mamer. Marie Rothhaas and Florence Estridge leave their gay twin act to any one willing to hold the position and keep up the spirit of things. The triumvirate from Sidney—Elvamae Herriott. Waneta Trick, and Ida Lu Bora—leave their light housekeeping efficiency and fun to Ann Both well, Phyllis Weeks, and Marie Kimble. I. Scott Cleave, bequeath my charming ways to annoy music appreciation practice teachers to brother Forrest. “Pud Williamson leaves her many and frequent gestures to Ruth Ann Stipes in hope that they lit in the latter’s conversation. Homer Kirby and Russell Hudson leave their Fords, to Wendell Crawford, believing that he would like a Model A for a change. Martha Hulbary and Jack Loveless leave their noon rendezvous in the cafeteria to Hen Mies and Bill Parks. (Continued on Page 117) Page 35 THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY HATCHET 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, 'Phan all the hectic tales which grow In fertile minds, or man-made plot— Imagined tales, with mystery fraught. Hut we shall tell you whence ’twas got. And how it came to Urbana High, In those olden days, so long gone by. He fore the white man came to dwell In Champaign County, histories tell. The wandering tribes of Kickapoo And Miami Indians lived here too; 'I'he Pottawatomies set their tent. And. as the seasons came and went. Returned to hunt the moose and deer Abounding on the prairies here. He fore Urbana was a town They brought their people, settled down And built their tents near Main and Race Where Davis’ grocery grows apace. 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. Pis near this old historic spot That C. X. Clark has 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. Hore keen resentment: then they swore That they of sleep would have no more Pill they had driven every man Of white blood out of this, their land. 'Phe Indian Chief. Chieagou. 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 Chieagou saw at last There was no doubt, the die was cast; 'Phe white men must be made a friend, The struggles, lighting, all must end I f 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. ORATION With Indian chant and tom-tom's beat 'Phe ceremony was complete. They buried a hatchet as a sign of peace; And promised all their wars to cease. They kept their word, and as time passed on Urbana grew to Ik 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 'Phe 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. Hut each class must prove its right to it Hv showing forth its power of wit; In mental contest, strong and bold, But not with weapons as of old. 'Phe classes meet by proxy: I From the senior class do cry A challenge to the junior clan. Upon this stage to produce their man, To answer in person for his class, Before, to them this hatchet may pass. Senior : Is the Junior class so short of men That they had to send us up a hen? Has thirty-eight no warrior bold Their class honor to uphold? They’ve sent a maid, Oh me! Oh my! Who's mighty fond of lemon pie! She found herself in a pretty plight When she carried one in a car one night: With just six girls beside her there, She had to handle it with care! Twas meant for a supper at the church, And, not to leave them in the lurch, To keep it safe, she held it high. Though she looked at it with a hungry sigh ! But the car came to a sudden stop, And that pic pan gave a sudden llop. Before her thoughts she could adjust. That lemon filling left the crust; And Gertrude, here, from toe to eye. (Continued on Page 1!2) THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY Page 36 SENIOR PROPHECY The year is 1960 as I wander into the L'rbana Public Library in search of a good book. The head librarian. Martha Hulbary. is busy selecting a Bobbsey Twin book for Jack Loveless, so I sit down at one of the tables to wait. A recent copv of the Champaupi-Urbana News-Gazette is King there. The headlines catch mv eve: ‘AVARREN CRAW LOR I) ELECTED PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES BY OXER- WHELMING MAJORITY.” Further on I read: “REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE MILDRED SHEAR CHARGES INTIMIDATION OF THE VOTERS.” The picture of Public Enemy No. 1. Junior Col- bert. occupies a prominent position on the front page. He is wanted by G-Man Robert Kimpel for pass- ing bad checks. Lawrence Gougler. Editor of the K cws-Gazettc, has directed a scathing editorial against the President’s plan to abolish the Supreme Court. The judges thus displaced would be: Allen Adams, Scott Littleton. Hall Hood. Donald Koehler. Richard Ropiequet, Ted LangholY. George Watson. Luther Tillotson, and Wilbur Good. Editor Gougler points out that this action would also cause their nurse- maid. Florence Estridge, to lose her job. Tiring of national politics. I turn the page in search of local news. I notice that Jack Clark has been arrested for reckless driving, while Charles Odell is in jail on a vagrancy charge. The arrests were made bv Chief of Police Nate Hanna. Under the caution. ‘'HOME TOW N GIRL MAKES GOOD”, is a big homecoming for its illustrious daughtt.,_______________, ________ ... v Contest. Among the prominent L'rbana business men giving speeches at this gala affair will be John Por- ter of Porter and Saltsgaver’s Cut-Rate Barber Shop, Street Commissioner Leonard Johnson, and James Smith. President of the First National Bank. Knowing that I will be sure to see many familiar names, I next thumb my way to the society page. I scan with interest an article telling of the exploits of the Ladies’ Aid Society of the First M. E. Church, who met in the home of Charlotte Murdock. The Ladies’ Aid is planning an ice cream social in honor of the new pastor. Robert Neal Smith. Marie Vance, head of the U. of Illinois Music School, is to present a recital at Smith Memorial Music Hall tomorrow night. The Little Sunshine Dramatic Club headed by Frances Long is planning a benefit play, for the benefit of the town’s cultural development. The cast in- cludes : Sylvia Miller, Dorothy Ridglcy, Frances Hollingsworth. Rosemary Royer. Jane McGrath, X irginia Brown, and Florence Ebert. In his account of the Little Sunshine Dramatic Club, reporter Darwin Davis brings tears to my eyes, lie writes pathetically of the members, whose husbands have all been lost at sea. Another interesting write-up announces that Mrs. Leonard Cole, the former Beth Schoch, is giving a mu- sical. at which John Dolch. the Director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, will be a special guest. Other notables present will be: John Gregory, H.D. (horse doctor); Dorothy Robbins, famous woman chemist; Clinton Cobb, playboy Congressman: and Merle Wycoff, trapeze artist with Noble and Doyle’s Circus. The teachers of l’rbana High School are giving a farewell party for Principal Warren Engle, who is leaving to join the navv. The committee in charge consists of: Miss Marjorie Winchester. Mr. XX’ ilson Elliott, Miss Pauline Green, Miss Mary Thompson. Mr. Erwin Widing, and Miss Roberta Parker. In the Hollywood Gossip column it is reported that Wcndall Sharp, the great screen lover, is planning to elope with Marjorie Patton. America’s Sweetheart. Sam Dillavou. stooge of the famous comedian. John Simone Simon, is being sued by his wife, the former Thelma Jones. Grief was general when the great Zasu Pitts passed on, but critics believe that a suiablc successor will be found in Ruth XX illiamson. Wil- bur Boyd, filmdom’s romantic cowboy, is faced with another breach-of-promise. The plaintiff this time is Dorothy Hegenbart, noted fortune-teller. I notice familiar faces even in the ads. The courageous animal-trainer, Wilbur Scaff, endorses Camel cigarettes. “They never get on my nerves”, he maintains. Other notables preferring Camels are: Mel- ford Taylor, daring stunt flier; Eli Blair, boxing champ: and Mary Ann Clark, blues singer with Roscoe Kirby’s Orchestra. Janet XX'ay, prominent New York society woman, says, Gasoline is costing me less, since I got my new Dodge.” Other Dodge addicts are: Mary Rutherford, celebrated sculptress; Barbara Hillis, opera prima donna; Marie Trotier. brilliant newspaper woman, and Secretary of XX'ar. William Lynch. A local ad announces that the place to go these days is the new Weber-I ludson Jazz Palace. It is featuring Jim Stansfield and his Swing Swabs.” Some of his swingiest are: Dick McAuley. John Britton. Bob Fisher, Lee Summers, and Bill Snider.

At the head of the I'rbatia High School Athletic Department is Mr. Lewis Stephens, who has led the destinies of the Urbana teams for twelve years. In this period of years he has not only produced many line athletes and teams but he has been very instrumental in improving Urbana athletics. On the Urbana coaching staff are Mr. C. K. Youmans and Mr. Frank Allen, who also act as instructors. Mr. Youmans assists Mr. Stephens with both the football and cage teams, as well as assuming many of the scouting duties. Mr. Allen has had one year's experience teaching and coaching at Sparta. Illinois before coming here. He coached the Freshman-Sophomore team during the grid season, and during the basketball season he was in charge of the freshman team. He also acted as the underclass track mentor. THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY Page 5 8 I'irst Row—Boyd, Johns, Day. Second Row—Bant ., Fairbanks, Simon, Gossett. MANAGERS T he backbone of our teams, the hard-working, blame-absorbing managers, were responsible for the well being of the athletes and equipment. To care for mischievous boys and hundreds of pieces of equipment was truly a job. Both the patience and the vocabulary of these boys were severely taxed. The head man- ager, Dwight Fairbanks, also acted as general first aid man. Jack Simon and Leonard Bant , were the assistant managers. One of their duties was to keep a good crop of grass in front of and under the spot on the football bench where “Lew” sat. CHEERLEADERS The first game of the season with ()narga turned into a 40-0 rout by the F rhana forces. From then on we subdued every opponent, and as it is easy to cheer for a winning team, our stands were truly a cheerleader's paradise. Organ- ised pep has not been very successful at Urbana, but our winning team revived interest before cheering had become a lost art. Bill Johns, the boy from Rockford, who made good in a big way: Wilbur Boyd, who has led cheering for four years: and Stanley Day. whose diminutive size is quite the opposite of his pep: contrib- uted much to the good spirit and successful playing of our boys in football and basketball.

W ayne is only a sophomore and had little experience before this year, but he was a pleasant surprise, and earned a position on the first squad. I le is rather large in size, and he knew how to drive through the line using his weight. With the experience that he gained this year, we know that he will probably be one of the finest fullbacks in the Big Twelve in his next two years of competition. I’.ill Parks was a regular at halfback. Bill is only a sophomore and showed a great deal of football ability. I le was unfortunate, however, and did not get to play a great part of the season because of a bro- ken shoulder which he received in practice. Bill’s spirit, however, even after his injury, was really an in- spiration and helped lots towards that team spirit of which we were so proud this year. Dean Hoyt played his last year for Urbana at the halfback position, lie shared the position with Wayne Gher and between the two of them, the position was well in hand. Dean was hard-driving and elu- sive and gained quite a bit of ground during the season. Dean was the reserve punter on the team. lie displayed a great deal of natural ability, but being a senior, he did not see as much competition as some of the underclassmen. Matt Busey shared the guard position with Earl Xoble. Matt is a junior, and so he will have one more year of competition. Matt is well-built and is capable of more than holding his own with the best of the guards. Not much newspaper glory goes to the linemen, but they are the ones who open the holes for the ball-carrier. Matt will be right in there next year, a valuable asset to the team. Bob Fisher shared with Jimmy Easterbrook the position of quarterback. 'Phis was Bob’s first year of varsity football, but he made up for lost time in this one year. 'Phis was also Bob’s last year, because he is in the graduating class. He did not do a lot of scoring, but what little he did was very valuable. Bob caught a pass to score the winning touchdown against Champaign. Warren Engle was captain-elect of the football team this year. He has played at guard for two years and this year proved to be one of the most outstanding guards in the state. “Flash” was named on the All Big Twelve team at guard and was honored by being placed at the same position on the Nezvs-Cascttc All State team. His untiring enthusiasm coupled with his fine playing played a large part in our most suc- cessful season. CRB A X A - M ATTOON GAME” o ► 0 1 Z oO 0 1 CD z o C LI NTON-6 • URBANA-34 URBANA - 19 Page 63 THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY LETTERMEN Harold Good, who played at the other end of the line, was also playing for the last time for Urbana. Harold carried the burden of punting for the team. Harold also is given credit for another “dear” point. When he was on the receiving end of a pass, he made the point which gave us the margin of victory in the Champaign game. Here is another man that will be hard to replace on next year’s team. Ross Downing played his last year for Urbana this year, but it was a good year. Ross played at end. one of the most difficult positions defensively. He had a typical lighting spirit and did a great deal to instill the needed enthusiasm. Ross’s most cherished point was the extra point which he caught in the corner of the end zone at Danville, which was the margin of victory. The end positions are going to be hard to till next year. Bill Williams (Eightniiv was the fitting nickname given him) was the mainstay at halfback. Rill turned out to be high scorer of the team as well as one of the high scorers in the conference. Whenever scoring was left to Bill, score he did! Rill was named on the second team of the All Rig Twelve and was given honorable mention for All State honors. He will be back next year and promises to be just a little better next season than this year. Jimmy Easterbrook, who is in the same category of size with Oscar Adams, played at the quarter- back position. Although Jimmy didn't do a lot of ball toting, he was the “brains of the team and that is an important task on any team. Jimmy is only a junior and so will be available for the next year’s squad, which promises to be a good one. Chuck Elcwelling, who was dubbed “Truckin', was Rill’s partner at the other halfback position. It was Chuck who usually preceded Hill on his jaunts that thrilled the crowds. He was especially outstand- ing for his hard tackling and excellent blocking. Chuck was named on the first All Rig Twelve team and was given honorable mention on the state team. Chuck will be back next year, and coupled with Bill, we should see some fancy football. Tom Reynolds was a third end who shared the season with the other two ends. Tom did not have any varsity experience but displayed quite a bit of football talent and earned a position on the first squad. Tom is a senior and will not be back next year, but he contributed quite a bit towards the 1936 champion- ship. All the regular ends were seniors. “URBAXA-IJXCOLX GAME” LINCOLN-Q URBANA-19 ▼ C LI NTON-G • URBANA-34 P a cj e 6 5 THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY LETTERMEhl Ferry Huic was a substitute tackle and played quite a bit of the time. Ferry is a junior and will be another of the returning lettermen next year. Although he was not a regular, Ferry was a reliable man to put into the game. If it was necessary to take out a man playing his position, Ferry was put into the game. He held up his part of the line in such a fashion that no difference could be noticed. Oscar Adams, little but mighty, played at center position and played it as it should be played. Oscar proved his worth in every game by his brilliant tackling. He is only a junior and will be back next year to resume his duties at center. Oscar was named on the All Fig Twelve team and was placed on the All State second team. Lew is not worrying about the center position for next year. Karl Xoble was responsible for stopping opponents around the other guard position. This was his last year but he made the most of it. Earl was one of the most dependable men on the squad when it came to defense, and it was his activities that made Urbana such an outstanding defensive team. Earl’s team mates recognized his valuable contributions and honored him by electing him the team’s most valuable man. Dick Stephens is only a sophomore but played regularly at the other tackle position. Dick was rather large but knew how to make use of his size to the best advantage. He was one of the linemen that opened the holes in the line through which might scamper the nimble backlield men. Keep an eye on Dick in the next two years because with the experience that he now has, he should be one of the best linemen in the state in the coming two football seasons. Kenneth Evans. ‘‘Pinky”, was another halfback who kept the regulars on their toes. He is a senior and so was playing his last year for Urbana. However, his playing made it a year well spent, lie re- lieved Bill or Chuck quite often and filled their shoes well, lie was fast and very shifty in his move- ments as well as being able to block and tackle most any foe. He was a very valuable asset to the team. Lew Franklin, big and mighty, did a fine job at the tackle position. Lew. who is only a junior, earned his letter as a sophomore and will be back to perform next year. He was another important factor in the defense that stopped so many good offensive teams. His contributions to the general morale of the team were worth a great deal because it was this spirit that pulled the team through several close games. UkllAXA-ONARGA GAME” THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY Page 66 Leslie Good was another man playing his last year for his Alina Mater. Leslie played in the line at the tackle position. Although he did not play quite the required time, he was given his major letter be- cause of his unfailing spirit, lie was out for football for four years and missed very few practices during that time, lie was quite capable, hut just lacked a little bit of being a regular during that period. Any- thing he lacked to give the team in ability was more than made up in the loyal support with which he always backed the team. Paul I’.auer played two different positions. Part of the time he played at center and sometimes at guard. Paul is another valuable prospect for next year’s team, and with the experience gained this sea- son. he should make a very good regular lineman. Paul is well built and rather heavy. He certainly knows how to play football. Oscar had to work to remain a regular, as Paul has the ability to make any of them step along. ‘‘L’KI� AXA-CLIXTON GAME” Page 67 THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY “URBANA-CIIAM I’AIG'N GAME” FOOTBALL SUMMAR Y Urbana High School’s Orange Racers opened the season with an impressive win over the Onarga eleven. Urbana held the edge during the entire game and kept the visitors scoreless while running up a score of six touchdowns and four successful attempts for extra points. Urbana again gave a display of offensive and defensive strength by amassing twenty-six points while holding Edwardsville High without a score. W orking as a machine, the team seemed unbeatable. The U. IT. S. eleven rolled on and completely crushed Gerstmeyer Tech of Terre Haute, thirty to nothing. Urbana’s backfield was showing greater power every game. In the first three games, Urbana was not scored upon. In the first real battle of the year. Urbana outplayed Danville both offensively and defensively and won by the margin of an extra point. The boys were intent upon stopping Rusty Owens, and stop him they did. Urbana scored early in the game. Danville scored when they returned a kickoff in the second half. Jimmy Kasterbrook played one of his best games of the year at his position of quarterback. Xo. 1 towards a P� ig Twelve Championship! Urbana nosed out the Decatur team after stopping a second half rally. However, the Reds were out- played more than the score indicates. The Orange defense relaxed a little but the offense carried them through. Xo. 2 towards a Rig 'Twelve Championship! (Continued on Page 147) URRAXA-DAXYIDLE GAME” r H E NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY Page 68 FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE FOOTBALL SQUAD The Freshman-Sophomore football squad had a short season of only six games this year, but it proved to be a most promising season. Out of the six games, five were on the right side of the ledger and the only defeat came as a result of an intercepted pass. The team was a hard-driving bunch and before the season was over there had developed several good prospects for varsity football for next year and the year following. 'I'lie season’s schedule included two games with Danville, two games with Monticello, one game with John's Hill of Decatur, and one game with Roosevelt Junior High of Decatur. A seventh game was scheduled with Hoopetson but was later called off. The squad defeated Monticello in both their encounters and completely routed the Danville squad in both games. The game with John’s Hill was a closer game but the under-class squad defeated them. The only defeat was at the hands of the Roosevelt Junior High of Decatur. Late in the game, the Roose- velt team intercepted a long pass and galloped over the line for a touchdown. The most outstanding man on the team was a freshman, Harold Franklin. He was the high scorer on the team and made many fine runs during the season. He is very speedy and knows how to handle a football. Other outstanding backfield men were John Hayes and Glen Rymer. Another boy on the team from whom the coaches are expecting big things is Bob Hoyt, a novice in athletics. The line showed a great deal of ability which will be a good source of material to draw on next year. Several of these boys are expected to fill the vacancies left by the seniors in the varsity team. The football team was whipped into condition by an addition to the I rbana High School faculty, teacher and coach Frank Allen.

He was not so outstanding in the scoring column but his height at the center position gave him many opportunities to assist in both offensive and defensive play. Although he was not as aggressive as was hoped, he was a very valuable asset to the team. One of the most outstanding and colorful players on the squad was Jimmy Easterbrook, a forward and only a junior. He was the smallest but yet one of the scrappiest men on the squad. He was a high scorer and finished among the first five in the Big 'Twelve scoring race. In the future he will prove to be one of Urbana's most valuable players. Tom Reynolds, the captain of the team, made his debut in high school basketball competition this year, and the record that he turned in at the end of the season was an enviable one. Tom performed most of the season at the center position. Although he was never a spectacular player, he was steady and de- pendable. the type which every coach desires on his team. Another junior, and one of the neatest players on the team, was a forward, Joe “Pete” Moomau. He was small but his ability to move about the floor and his marksmanship at the hoop made up for his lack in height. At the beginning of the year he acted m � stly as a substitute, but as the season advanced, he was given a permanent varsity berth. Another sophomore who gained recognition as an excellent player was Hill Parks. Hill, an all around athlete, saw varsity play throughout the season. He was one of the high scorers of the team, and his ex- ceptional long scoring shots gained for him great favor from the stands. He too, being an underclass- man, has excellent possibilities for the future. One of the interesting features about this year's cage squad was its abundance of underclass mate- rial. One of these boys was Bill Oesterling. Bill was tall and he had a good eye for the basket, as well as an ability for good floor work. He was an exceptional player for a sophomore, thus giving him an op- portunity to hope for a successful future. A product from Sidney High was Max Wright who stepped into the I’rbana lineup and offered his services at both the center and forward positions. He was an experienced man when he reported for practice, having played for the Sidney team as an underclassman. Especially in the earlier part of the sea- son he was one of the high scorers and a good defensive player. Among the seniors who will be missed on the cage lineup next year is Warren Engle. Warren per- formed at guard on the basketball team as capably as he held down the guard position on the grid squad. Being one of the biggest lx ys on the team, he proved to be a good defensive man. ably covering some of the biggest of l.'rbana’s opponents. THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY Page 72 BASKETBALL SUMMARY The 1936-37 basketball season, in many respects, proved to be a successful one. Due to the fact that a large percentage of the games were lost, this statement may sound strange. The team performed quite well in spite of the fact that it was lacking in both tall and experienced men. When the season com- menced there were no lettermen present from tin- team of the previous year, and only two boys reported who had seen varsity competition before. The Orange began their season by being defeated by Tolono, the County Champions. With only two weeks’ practice the I'rbana boys were not prepared for their first contest. For their next game the Orange journeyed down to the new Longview gym and defeated that team, thus winning their first victory of tin- season. I'rbana met Danville twice during the season. Loth games turned in favor of the Whitesellmen. The first contest ended with the Orange only two points behind. The return engagement, on the Danville floor gave Danville a wider scoring margin, the Orange not performing quite as well as they did in the first en- counter. Just before the opening of the Christmas holidays I'rbana defeated Rantoul on the Rantoul floor. 'Phis raised their hopes somewhat for their chances in the Pontiac Tournament. During the Christmas holidays the Orange we it to the Pontiac Tournament. In the preliminaries they won their first game, but their second game was lost to Normal High. They were unfortunate though in the consolation game. When school resumed again, the Orange lost to a fast, sharp-shooting Clinton team. The game was tied in the last few minutes of play but the Clintonites managed to break away to win the game. The Orange traded victories with Mat toon during the season. In their first game, a speedy basket in the last few seconds saved the game for I'rbana. However, the second meeting went to the Mattoon team. 'Phis was Mattoon’s first victory of the season. They rose, in one evening, from an inconspicuous team to one of the most perfect the Orange had yet met. In the three games played with Champaign the Orange were not fortunate enough to win. In the scheduled games during the season. Urbana seemed unable to compete with the taller Maroons. In the conference meeting the Urbana cagers pushed the Champaign men quite hard, but it was not enough of a rally to win. The brightest jewel among Urbana’s achievements was the defeat they handed to Decatur. The first time Urbana played Decatur, the contest turned in favor of the superior Decatur team. P� ut when Urbana met Decatur on the Decatur floor, the tables turned, and the Orange played their best game of the season, to beat the State Champs. The Orange ran up their largest score of the season to beat Mahomet. The next week Lincoln came to the Urbana court to be beaten by the Su-vemen wh � played, in that contest, nearly as well as they had performed in their winning game against Decatur. I'rbana entertained Gerstmeyer Tech of Terre Haute, and in a rather slow game the Illinois team had little difficulty in defeating their Indiana visitors. To close their season before the tournament games, the Orange played both Paxton and Fisher, win- ning both of these contests. Urbana eked out just a one-point victory from the Fisher cagers. but against Paxton they won a decisive victory. In the Regional tournament, held at Champaign, the Orange had little trouble in defeating Sidney in the preliminary. 'Phis earned for them the opportunity to meet Champaign, who in the end. erased for I’rbana further competition in the tournament, thereby closing their basketball season. Page 73 THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE BASKETBALL I loth the freshman and sophomore cage squads this year enjoyed very successful seasons. The freshman group under the direction of Mr. Allen turned in the final standing of twelve wins and two losses. 'Popping all other underclass teams in this section of the state the freshmen lost their opening game to Kantoul. and in their second encounter with Tolono. they lost a three point decision. 'Phis year’s team was represented with an exceptionally fine group of hoys, twenty in all and out of which only seven were fortunate in winning their numerals. Those who received their 40’s were Lloyd Brown, Jimmy Smith. Wilbur Franklin, Clinton Emmert, Leo KlingelhotVer. Don Kedmon, and Joe Williamson. The sophomores won nearly three-fourths of their games during the season. Their crowning achieve- ment. however, was their winning the sophomore tournament at Kantoul. The Urbana second year men encountered three teams. Melvin. Paxton, and Tolono. The Melvin cagers came within fifteen points of the Urbana final score, the nearest any team came to Urbana in all tournament play. John Hays gained scoring honors for the tourney as well as winning a second place in the free throw contest. Mr. Youmans, who coached the team, awarded numerals to the following boys. Forrest Cleave, John Hays, Francis Mi- chels, Glenn Rvmer, Stephen Speck, Kenneth Waldron. Bob Hoyt. Dallas Peters, Harold Rhodes, and Elmo Hill. INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL The intramural round-robin basketball tournament was greeted with more enthusiasm this year than in several years past. Over one hundred fifty boys participated this year. The boys were divided into two classes with boys weighing over 125 pounds in the heavyweight class and boys under that weight in a lightweight division. There were eight lightweight teams and ten heavyweight teams. Many of the games were as thrilling as varsity games, and there were big upsets just as there are in the varsity games. Many of the games were decided by a point in the last few seconds of play. The intramural basketball gives any boy an opp rtunitv to play if he wants to and occasionally brings to light a boy with outstanding ability. There are no eligibility requirements other than that the boy must not be a member of the varsity team. The lightweight bracket was won by Harry Anderson’s team, being undefeated throughout the tour- nament. When the tournament ended all the teams in the heavyweight bracket were tied. Scaflf’s and Turner Robert’s teams were tied for first place and for the second place honors, MacDowell and Hanna’s teams still remained in the running. The games were never played off.

The Orange were again among the track leaders this season. Out of the four meets that Urbana competed in so far this season they lost only once, that to Decatur in the Mattoon relays. With only a week of favorable practice weather, the Orange met Champaign in the I' of I Armory for their first meet. Although it was a part of the County Indoor Meet the Orange downed the Maroons in a dual encounter. The success of the team members gave an encouraging outlook for the rest of the season. The Cross-Country stars, John Boyd, Don Koehler, and Bob Lovingfoss, turned in good times in their various running events. Kenneth Rusk, Dick Ropiequet, Bob Martin. Wendell Wessels. and Frank Jenkins, who were seeing their first real track competition, started a profitable season. Jenkins, due to an injury, was forced to end an excellent track career early in the season. Francis Michels did his best pole-vaulting of the season in this meet. Phil Thompson earned second in the broad jump, and Tom Rey- nolds heaved the shot 36 feet 6 inches for his best. The following week the I'rbana men entered a quadrangular meet with Champaign, Rantoul. and Ma- homet. To win this meet the Orange scored 68 A points to Champaign’s 46. A few of the I’rbana men established themselves at the top of the list in their various events, Hill Williams bringing his time down to 23.7 in the 220 lows, a record as yet unsurpassed; and Turner Roberts setting his record at 16 seconds in the 120 high barriers. The Orange next ran up their third victory of the season to top six other schools in the Rantoul In- vitational Tourney held on the Urbana track. In this encounter the Urbana men set up more records for Eastern Illinois. Bill Williams made his record run in the 100 yard dash with a time of 10.2. Bob Espy placed himself at the peak by turning in a time of 4.56 in the miter. Ross Downing, running his first race of the season, followed Espy in. to gain second place. Walter Carter landed exactly 30 feet 4 inches from the take-off board to set his best record in the broad jump. The 880 yard relay team composed of Walter Carter, Jack May. Don Koehler, and Bill Williams, made the record in that event, only to have it broken in the Mattoon relays. In the Field events Matt Busey made his best throw in the discus. Fort Wesley threw the javelin 133 feet 4 inches to win. Three points prevented the Urbana tracksters from topping Decatur in the Mattoon relays. In this meet the Orange won two of the relays, the shuttle hurdle, and the sprint medley, and secured a second place in both the 880 yard relay and the mile relay. Bill Williams lost his first place in the hundred, but his record was not broken. Turner Roberts ran a close second in the 220 yard low hurdles. The Orange then competed in their own relay carnival, the Urbana Relays. The District meet at Rantoul followed and then Urbana competed in the State meet held at the University. After this, the Or- ange went to Peoria to defend their conference title in the Big Twelve meet, following which Urbana closed their season by competing in the Pekin relavs. “BILL WILLIAMS WINS AGAIN” Page 77 THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY WRESTLING 19 3 7 The Urbana 11ij;h School wrestling team maintained the good record this year that they have had since the sport was started in this school four years ago. Kvery year they have been one of the top ranking teams in the state. The team won eight out of ten meets this year and succeeded in defeating once the two teams that beat them. The grapplers defeated Danville twice. Catlin twice, University High twice, and split the two meet series with both Champaign and Lewistown. There are four boys who graduate this year that have been members of the team for the four years that it has been a sport at L'rbana. These boys have established records that will be difficult to equal. Jack May has won seventy out of seventy-five contests; Jimmy Stansfield has won sixty-two out of sixty- nine; Ross Downing has been the victor in thirty-six out of forty-two attempts, and junior Colbert has lost but two meets out of thirty-one. This year, for the first time in the history of the sport, the Illinois State High School Athletic Asso- ciation recognized wrestling as a major sport. The first State Wrestling Meet, for the entire state, was held at the University of Illinois under the direction of the U of 1 wrestling coach. Urbana’s team placed third in a field of nineteen schools. Jack May and Junior Colbert both placed second in the state finals. 'flic wrestling team this year will lose the group of boys that have been the backbone of the team for the past few years, but there are a group of underclassmen that have been developing and should be able to efficiently take their places. Wrestling is becoming more popular every year with the realization that size is no handicap in this sport, because the boys are pitted against competition of the same weight. It is possible for a small boy of only ninety-five pounds to earn a major letter. At the close of the season, the boys elected Jimmy Stansfield as honorary captain of the 1937 wres- tling team. Jimmy has earned his major letter in this sport for four years, being the only four year letter man on the team. The success of the team this year was due largely to the splendid coaching of Johnny George a stu- dent coach from the University.

THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY Page 78 GOLF Among the newer sports in Urbana High athletics is golf. 'Phis is one of the minor sports and be- cause of this no coach has been provided to train the players, leaving the management of the team in the hands of its members. Although the running of the team has been rather a difficult task the hoys par- ticipating in golf in the past have covered themselves with glory. Last year the golf team earned their way to the State meet and the captain of the Urbana team that year won the championship trophy. From last year's team came three seniors, Bob Kimpel, Kenneth Evans, and Lee Summers. All these men are experienced and so far during the season they have been shooting in the 70 s and in the low 80 s. The other members of the squad, who have been turning in as good scores are Dale Dixon, a junior, and John Hays and Lloyd Brown, who are both sophomores. Hays is the only experienced man of the un- derclass trio, having been a member of last year’s squad. Dixon and Brown are the newest members of the squad and have been acting as reserves. There are four men on the varsity golf team. This year’s team is composed of Kimpel. Summers. Hays and Evans. Under the leadership of this group of boys it seems that this team has very good op- portunities in winning the Big Twelve as well as receiving high standings in the State. The Urbana golfers have received permission to practice on the Urbana Country Club links. On the Urbana course the State meet was held last year and this is where the Orange hold their home meets. T he Orange have arranged two games with Bloomington and one with Danville. T he Urbana golfers will next compete in the district meet and then, if they qualify, they will see State competition.

Overgard. have finished another year packed with action and achievements. For many Saturday mornings, the band presented a new program called. “‘Hand Rehearsals by Radio”. For each broadcast, a composition was selected from the 1937 Contest List.” and was studied and rehearsed. 'Phis was a very popular program, and letters were received from various parts of the states. Many bands from nearby towns were guests at the studio to enjoy and par- ticipate in these broadcasts. At the football games the improved marching band added much color and spirit which helped to cheer our team on to victory. Later all attention was turned to the state and national solo and ensemble contests. I’rbana was well represented in these contests and received many high awards. T he Annual Spring Concert presented by the band on May 4. topped the season with a brilliant per- formance. The varied program was enjoyed by everyone present. Now many of the band members are eagerly locking forward to a delightful summer at Interlochen where they can study and further their musical career. “RAXI) REHEARSAL RY RADIO” French Horns Gouglcr, Cole Flute Section Brass Choir Brass Choir Bass Clarinets C � hh, Pilchard Bl Clarinet Section Ohocs Macintire, Peabody Student Conductors McDowell, Carson Hr ass Sextet Sandy, Fisher, Goug- ler, Martin, Sum- mers, Yapp Flute Trio Clark, Kohhins, Dolch Woodwind Wind Quartet Skelton, Macintire, Sch vall e.

A three-act comedy of youth, “The Poor Nut”, by J. Nugent and Elliot Nugent, was presented by the Junior Class in the Urbana High School auditorium. Friday, November 13, 1936. The story takes place on the campus of Ohio State University. The plot centers around John Miller, an extremely shy, studious, and retiring student. Marjorie Blake, an unassuming sweet coed, feels sorry for John but is rather pushed into the background by Julia Winters, a beautiful W isconsin coed, who de- termines to pierce John's inferiority complex. On the spur of the moment, the botanically inclined Miller boasts to Julia of his track achievements, is overheard by the coach, and is made to run in a track meet against “Spike” Hoyt, Julia’s former boyfriend. John not only wins the track meet and is initiated into Psi Sigma, the fraternity which he has long wished to join, but also realized that the girl whom he truly loves is not Julia, but Marjorie Blake. This entertaining and amusing play was directed by Miss Betty Turnell. assisted by Margaret Hen- wood.

The scene was in a girls' college just before the spring prom and the background was evidently familiar to the authors, for it was faithfully reproduced. A popular girl had fallen in love with a young man who had the audacity to think he'd go vagabonding with another fellow instead of marrying her. Cupid vs. the Red Gods Calling—literally the Red Gods, for their objective was Russia. The girl's chums threw themselves on Cupid’s side in this tug-of-war. and naturally the Red Gods were soon pulled over the line. The pace was fast, the dialogue clever, and it provided innocent merri- ment. The play was ably directed by Miss Betty 'Purnell. Miss Turned has become widely known for her brilliant performances.

Page 9 3 THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY ALPHA PSI OMEGA I ’resident...................................................Lawrence Gougler Vice-President................................................ Marie Vance Secretary-Treasurer............................................Mildred Shear The Urbana High School has organized a new system of honor society, thereby severing its member- ship with the National Honor Society. There has been a growing feeling among the faculty and students for several years that the system allowing just fifteen per cent of the students membership to the Honor Society is unjust, since Urbana High’s scholastic average exceeds that of almost every other school. Many students were necessarily left out because of the limitations in membership. A system has now been arranged to separate scholastic and activity honoraries. There has been cre- ated for all classes an individual honorary society. The freshman honorary. Alpha, requires a 4.5 average for that year. The sophomore honorary, Psi. requires the same average for that year regardless of the average made the previous year. The junior honorary, Lambda, is like the other organization, requiring a 4.5 average for that year. The senior honorary is called Alpha Psi Omega. The requirements for this last honorary are more rigid than the other organizations. The students are required to have a 4.5 aver- age for seven semesters. However, there are no limitations as to the number that can be elected to the club. This year twenty students were elected, ten of whom were former members of the National Hon- orary Society, having been elected in their junior year. Regardless of his outside activities if a student makes the grades he automatically becomes a memb r of an honorary society. In addition to these previous societies there has been formed an honorary activity society, called Sag- amore. To belong to this organization a student is required to have recommendations from at least two clubs, indicating that he has been of service to this group. A 5.7 average is required of all persons. A club is allowed only to recommend one-fourth of its membership to be considered for Sagamore Honor- ary. This year there were forty-eight people elected. The students have responded to this new system with more enthusiasm than they have to any other new organization yet formulated in this high school.

THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY Page ? 4 STUDENT COUNCIL Martha Noel I� ob Fisher Dorothy Hudson Jim Stansfield Mary Ann Clark To he eligible for election to this honorary club, one must have a ‘T average in all bis subjects and show leadership in social activities. The Council functions as any other club in Urbana High School. The meetings are scheduled regular!) for every two weeks. The main objective of the club is to make improvements about the school in accordance with the stu- dents’ wishes. 'Phis year the Student Council has 1 ecu active in creating a feeling of loyalty in the school, especially by urging the students to participate in the cheering sections at our games. The Council pro- cured megaphones and passed them out to those who signed up with the office. These sections increased in number and volume as the season progressed. T he Student Council has successfully undertaken the task of keeping the halls, locker rooms, and the auditorium free from wastepaper and other debris. Furthermore the organization has placed a member in the front hall for the purpose of directing our visitors. This member acts as general host or hostess for his or her specified week. Other functions of the club have been to provide the exchanging of assem- blies with Champaign High School and to strengthen the bond between the high school and the eighth grade at Thornburn. by inviting the students to visit the high school and become familiar with the sched- ule and conduction of classes. It also has arranged with the Echo staff for distributing extra copies of the school4 aper among the eighth grade students at Thornburn. This year the Student Council and the Parent-Teachers Association sponsored the ‘’Open House” in order that parents might observe the pupils' work and meet their teachers. Student Council members acted as hosts and hostesses. One of the Student Council’s accomplishments was observed in the attendance of assemblies. Former lack of attention at such gatherings was attributed to compulsory attendance. The Council arranged that if the pupils so desired they might attend a study hall instead of the assembly. Mr. Hadden and Miss Ricketts acted as faithful and invaluable advisers throughout the year. President.......... Vice-President..... Sec ret a ry - T rea sure� . Sergeant-at-Arms...

Page 95 THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY U CLUB I ’resident.........................................................Jack May Vice-1Vesident......................................................Harold Good Secretary-Treasurer.................................................Jack Simon The I’ Club, the honorary club for athletic letter winners, was under the leadership of Jack May this year, with Mr. Lewis Stephens as faculty adviser. The membership requirements for this organization are: to win a major athletic letter, to meet standard requirements of good citizenship, and to support ac- tivities and organizations of L’rbana High School. The major undertaking of the U Club this year was the production of the annual I’ Club Dance. Much money and effort was spent in an attempt to make this the most outstanding dance in the year. A beautifully lighted false ceiling of cloth, an elaborate elevated band-shell, and an all-girl orchestra were the main features of the dance. Attractive programs added to its success. By putting on such a dance the I’ Club hoped to encourage the production of more good dances. Another function of the L Club this year was t � keep up the pep and enthusiasm of the student body. At the major basketball games the club sat in a body and gave support to the cheerleaders. It also un- dertook the job of selling pencils on which was printed the basketball schedule. Furthermore it spon- sored an athletic “get-together’’ for all boys who had participated in athletics this year. The active year was climaxed by a U Club reception of parents in the gymnasium. Annual initiation was held in Smith’s woods this year. After the usual informal initiatio i, came a short formal initiation, which was followed by refreshments, furnished by the old members. The I’ Club acts as a leader in supporting all L’rbana High School undertakings. It maintains a high citizenship standard among its members and tolerates no violation of school traditions and rules. 'Phis group is the only organizaton in the school that has an alumni club. The Alumni I’ Club, founded last year, had not carried on extensive activities but is an organization which wants to serve as the active L Club at L’rbana. The two clubs work hand in hand and are bound to accomplish many things for the benefit of the school and students. I'irsl Row: Adams. Simon. Williams, Noble. May.

THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY Page 96 THE ROSEMARY This year’s annual represents a sincere effort on the part of its editor. Marie Vance, and business manager, Clinton Cobb, to produce a more attractive and larger Rosemary. Much care was taken to have many unusually fine pictures. The aim of the 1937 staff was to leave an actual record of school life at Urbana High. This was achieved by many snaps and the unusual colored pin tographic division plates picturing the school and school life. The cover design consists of an engraved cut of the building front. The live-wire advertising staff, under the capable management of Dorothy Hudson, carried out their plans so well that they more than doubled their usual budget. Advertising is the big source of revenue that makes the book possible. A complete standard bookkeeping and tiling system were inaugurated to provide increased efficiency on the business side of the annual. During the year the Rosemary sponsored several prominent entertainments. Among these were a night performance of the Warfield-Scott Company of Magicians, and an assembly presenting Ray Turner and his popular song slides. The annual Rosemary dance was called the “Cellophane Dance . The dec- orations were blue and white cellophane interlaced to form a shimmering false ceiling. The programs were celluloid over a blue background and printed in gold.

Page 97 THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY THE ECHO The Echo is the official newspaper of Urbana High School. From both the editorial and business points of view it experienced a very successful year. At the Illinois High School Press Conference the Echo was given a very excellent rating. A journalism course taught by Miss Rusk was offered this year for the first time at Urbana High School. 'I’his class studied newspaper work and helped in publishing the paper. At different times during the year pictures were featured. 'I’his added a great deal to the paper's attractiveness. Before the Champaign football game an extra edition was published. This extra carried a picture of the football team and was printed on orange paper. During the year, two issues of the Echo were distributed free to the eighth grade students of Thorn- burn Junior High School. The staff hoped that by reading the paper next year’s freshmen might become more acquainted with the activities of our high school. The faculty advisers were Miss Rusk, chairman. Miss Biedermann. and Mr. Carlson. The members of the publication staff wish to express their appreciation to the faculty advisers who have given such indispensable assistance in publishing the paper.

V. C. A. The purpose of this social or- ganization is to urge better development of one's self in body. mind, and spirit. The activities of the year were begun at a meeting in which Miss Mildred Lawson, club adviser, ex- plained the aims, purposes, and organization of the c'ub. Miss Mary Ann Horner, a member of the V. W. C. A., served as the Iniversity adviser. At Christ- mas time Miss Horner instructed the members in several different lines of handicraft. She helped them with silver work, leather work, yarn designs, linoleum blocks, and stationery designs. One of the most important features of the club was the Tri-Club meetings. Girl Reserves from the three high schools in the twin-cities attended these meetings. Each club served dinner at least once during the year to the other two clubs and Y. W. C. A. counsellors. After dinner an informal discussion was held. One of the enjoyable features of these meetings was that the girls met members of other clubs and learned what they were doing or planned to do at their Girl Reserve Club meetings. A special meeting of the Tri-Club was held in February in the form of a pot-luck supper. Group singing of Girl Reserve songs preceded stunts by each of the three schools. The L'rbana girls presented a farce. The Lamp W ent Out.” In April, members of the Girl Reserves were invited to attend an all-day meeting of the Junior V'” at Danville. The girls enjoyed a swim in the Y. W. C. A. pool before attending a pot-luck luncheon. In the afternoon they were entertained at tea in a Danville member's home. In the spring the girls enjoyed a number of parties and picnics. Two of the most interesting were a fishing trip and an over-night hike. There is no membership fee for the club, so the girls have worked very industriously and conscien- tiously to make this club year a success. h'irsl Row: Gossett, Alger. Williamson, I.iiulsay.

To become a member a student must have a 4.00 average and at least a P in Latin. Students must be taking Latin at the time they become members but may re- main members when they have stopped studying the language. Membership in the club is a reward for the students’ accomplishments. The Greek letters. Phi and Epsilon, are the first letters of the Latin words “Phos Estos” which mean “Let there be light. The purpose of the organization is to heighten the interest in the classics and to fur- ther the students’ appreciation of their Latin sudies. Phi Epsilon, under the direction of the faculty adviser. Miss Ethelyn Kirk, assisted by Miss La Verne Sammons, had a busy year. The first meeting of the year was dedicated to the incoming freshmen Latin pupils. Dr. Oldfather of the Classics Department of the University of Illinois addressed the students. For the informal initiation the prospective members were required to put on a club assembly. The formal initiation was held in the home of Margaret Gregory at the same time as that of the annual Christ- mas party. As is the custom, gifts were exchanged. In February the club members presented an assem- bly for the school. Scenes from Virgil’s Aeneid were presented in shadow pantomime greatly burlesqued. In May as the crowning social event of the vear, the Roman banquet was held. All members wore the toga, the patrician members (third year students) wearing the special three-inch border. This privi- lege was also accorded the officers. The equestrians (second year students) were allowed only a one and one-half inch border on their togas while the plebeians (first year students) had no decorations on their togas. Following the custom of the ancient Romans, the banquet began with eggs and ended with apples. The plebeians served the dinner, including the passing of finger bowls. So far as was possible, the entire banquet was served in Roman style. First Row: Chaney. Miller, W'rather, W'alttnirc, Hacklemcn, Kimpel, Hauser, Mcxander, Alexander.

Secretary.......... Treasurer......... Program Chairman Allen Adams Dorothy Robbins Robert Kimpel Mary Ann Clark Scott Cleave Although one of the newest clubs in the school, the Science Club is one of the most active. It now boasts a membership of seventy. The dues are twenty-five cents a semester. The purpose of the club is to promote interest in popular sciences by bringing the members into con- tact with the actual science. I;or those alreadv scientifically inclined, it is the hope of the club to bring them in closer relationship with their special fields. The University of Illinois afforded a great opportunity for very interesting speakers at the monthly club meetings. On November 5, Bill De 'Turk, a graduate of Urbana High School and now a university student, spoke to the club. Dr. Hottes, of the Botany Department, gave a lecture on botany on December second. At a special meeting on December sixteenth. Dr. G. L. Clark of the U. of I. Chemistry Depart- ment gave an exceptionally interesting lecture on the X-ray. Representing the Zoology Department. Dr. Van Cleave spoke to the club on January 6. Another enlightening talk was given by Dr. Clark of the Bac- teriology Department. Although at most of the meetings lectures were heard, several periods were spent in discussion, at which times the members were given an opportunity to express their own ideas and to demonstrate their own projects. Initiation of this club was held on December sixteenth in the high school cafeteria. At this time thirty-five new members were taken in. The initiation was accompanied by a pot-luck dinner. One hun- dred points must be earned by anyone wishing admittance to this club. These points are earned by grades in the science courses and by special projects such as scientific readings and class reports. A year's aver- age of A in any scientific course is equivalent to one hundred points. An average of “B” is worth fifty points. To Miss McClurg, Miss Gross, and Mr. Tilbury, the faculty advisers, goes the credit for the suc- cessful year enjoyed by the Science Club. First Row: Robbins, Colvin, Ross, Roberts.

Page ! 0 5 THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY SOCIAL SCIENCE CLUB Warren Crawford................................................President Ruth Williamson...........................................Vice-President Mary Ann Clark.................................................Secretary Hill Johns.....................................................Treasurer The Social Science Club, as the name implies, is concerned primarily with civic affairs and problems. The club is for all students of Urbana High who wish to delve more deeply than the classroom permits, into the social problems and interests of the country, state, and city. It also strives to create a more dem- ocratic outlook in education and club work. Here is a melting pot for student opinions. Here the mem- bers can express their own ideas and feelings on governmental affairs. The members of this club ap- proach the problems of the day in a most scientific manner. The issues are set up for discussion and sides are taken, pro and con. This club is also vitally interested in school affairs and many of its discus- sions have to do with education and. in particular, Urbana High. The requirements for membership in the Social Science Club are few. One must maintain a grade of I� in a social science subject and be sincerely interested in a further and more advanced study of the social sciences. One of the best speakers of the year was Professor C. I,. Stewart, who gave a most en- lightening talk on Land Tenancy. His remarks were colored with years of experience and his listeners gained a wealth of valuable information from his talk. Many very heated discussions and debates took place in meetings around national election time last November. A mock election was held which created quite a bit of interest. The members’ views and opinions of the various candidates were surprisingly intelligent and indicated a great amount of think- ing on their part. This indicates the decided trend of Urbana's students toward civic enlightenment and shows that they do read other things besides the comics in the newspapers. The officers endeavored to pick speakers whose remarks, they thought, would most interest the stu- dents. After each talk before the club, the members discussed the issues and formed their own opinions of the subjects. Much of the success of the Social Science Club was due to the efforts of its energetic president, Warren Crawford, and the capable adviser, Mr. Hornor.

Program Chairman Secretary-Treasurer. ...Charles Oclcll ...Emily Weber Nadine Carroll ...Ruth Benson The Art Club, which was reorganized in 1936-37. has changed its name to Alpha Rho. The Greek letter “Alpha” stands for Art. and “Rho” for Rosemary. The art department has for several years sponsored an art club. Last year, however, the organiza- tion was temporarily disbanded because the members were expending all their time and energy on re- organizing the advanced art class work along craft lines. In their craft work, the students have been doing leatherwork, especially tooling. The class has made prints with wood and linoleum blocks, imita- tion wood blocks, and lithographs. The University Art Exhibits have inspired the art students to bet- ter work. Several field trips have offered an opportunity of sketching. The class has also taken up ink- sketching. finger-painting, and comercial art work. This year a group of advanced students made an effort to organize the Art Club. They formulated the following entrance requirements: During the first six weeks of the second semester pledges are on probation. The prospective members must have an all-school average of 2.00 (D) or over, an art average of 3.00 (C) or over during the first semester, and during the pledge period an art average of 4.00 ( B). These pupils must be willing to prove their eagerness and ability to hard work by performing certain du- ties which may be assigned to them. The main purpose of the club is to take care of the Rosemary art work. A secondary aim of the group is to do some of the general art work in the school. These art students may be called upon to make posters or decorations for various clubs and dances in the shook By their ability and willingness to work. Alpha Rho is promoting interest in art and work being done in crafts, especially in the advanced classes. I:irst Row: Lewis, Christopher, Benson, Carroll, Weber Thompson, Hanawalt.

The members of the debate squad were as follows: Allen Adams. Scott Cleave. Warren Crawford. |ohn IV- I in k. Kill Johns, Rob Kedy, Jeanette Ross, Wendell Sharp. Philip Spradling and Tom Tyrrell. The mem- bers of the squad this year worked hard, hunting and assembling material, and holding practice debates, therefore they deserve a great deal of credit. The first activities of the season were debates held in the different home rooms and assemblies. T hese were very interesting to the students. Later in the year two teams entertained the Rotat e and Ex- change Clubs. ()n January 29 seven members of the squad went to the Wheaton College Tournament in which twenty-live schools participated. Each debater was in five debates. Later in the season the debate team engaged in exchange debates with Champaign, Morton. Pekin, Decatur. .Mattoon and Paris. Such debates tend to increase good feeling between the schools and afford excellent practice for the debaters. On April 10 a team, composed of John DeTurk and Wendall Sharp, on the affirmative, and Allen Adams and Warren Crawford, on the negative, went to the East Central District Meet at Charleston and carried home the honors. 'They won first place, having won seven debates and lost onlv one. !iv this victory they, with the second place winner, represented the district in the state contest at the I'ni- versity of Illinois on April 23 and 24. ay 1st the Urbana Varsity team debated in the Rig 12 at Peoria.

THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY Page 108 GIRL SCOUTS The first semester of this year, the Scouts were under the supervision of Miss Veach and Miss ood. Because such a small group attended here and at the two other local high schools, it was decided that the three troops should be united. Meetings were scheduled for every other W ednesday night at Mc- Kinley foundation. One officer was elected from each school. These officers, together with the directors. Miss Eleanor Schenck and Miss Laura Summers, secured many very interesting speakers for the meet- ings. An overnight hike and scavenger hunt were other interesting events of the year.

But worst of all, her whole heart sank When she had to rob her penny bank. And all her pocketbooks to search, To buy another for the church! Junior: You like to argue, so they say, Can sit and talk the live-long day. You think you know enough to fix The whole world up in politics. Even when you take your food. And go for a picnic to the woods You take some friend and sit apart And argue the question heart to heart. You often are so lost in thought You do not know what you're about. One day last Fall at Homer Park You fought it out with Wendell Sharp; You both sat down upon the ground An hour or more; and then you found When you and he so long had raved. And finally the world was saved. Though your minds were still a muddle. You had been sitting in a puddle; And politics, with all its cants Simply couldn't dry your pants. 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: Warren Lee Crawford Mary Ann was not at home When three boys called one night; But when her folks said. Come right in. The three boys said, “All Right. Mary had a date they learned But she would not be late; And, being asked to take a scat. They did not hesitate. The folks went out and left them there To wait for Mary Ann. Then Jo Blow got to thinking And made a little plan: He’d slip into the next room And in that room he’d stay,— The boys could call him out again When the date had gone away. But Lee came in and stayed an hour And when at last he’d gone, The boys called out, “The way is clear, And now, Jo Blow, come on!” Xo answer came; the boys went in, And found no Jo Blow there; 1 le'd disappeared,—apparently, Had vanished in thin air. He’d climbed up to a window, A casement high and thin,— And wiggled out through a narrow space, Where he couldn’t wiggle in! Senior: Lewis Leonard Franklin A football hero, I'll lie bound! 'I'he like has never yet been found! A lineman he in forward wall, With ne’er a chance to carry the ball; But played at tackle or at guard, And always played the game so hard That he hurt his lingers or his toes, Or got a big bruise on his nose. That he was dubbed “Sir Galahad. Since he’d lieen made King Stephen’s knight, He needed armor for the light; For a better one he could not ask 'Phan a chest protector and a baseball mask. And thus adorned, one autumn day. He appeared upon the field for play. But “Steve sent him back to return his loot And don a regular football suit, And he came back a little sad. But still—heroic Galahad. Junior: Lawrence Weiss Gougler Pa and Ma were not at home When Lawrence called on Sally; They really hadn’t much to do, But just to dilly-dally They studied some, and chatted some, And played one game or t’other; They got so bored that Laurie said “Maybe you had ruther We’d go out and take a walk; With wraps we needn’t bother, 'Phe night is warm and we’ll lie back Before your dad and mother.” They started out and shut the door; It locked before they knew it. When they came back, alas, they found They had no key to undo it.

Hut Laurie’s hand was battered up. And badly it was bleeding! And then he found to his disgust He’d chosen, all unheeding A window which was far too small For him to wriggle through it; There was no latch that he could reach, Nor could our Sally do it! Then Pa and Ma came home at last; And did they feel forsaken, When they found that neither one With them a key had taken? Then father found a brickbat. And crashed the glass door in So he could reach the night latch:— Now, wasn't it all a sin? Senior : Patricia Ann Stricklcr “Swing High. Swing Low,” A pretty show With lots of music in it! A group of six Had their minds all fixed To hear bred MacMurray swing it. The crowd was such They hadn’t much Choice of seats to sit in. They looked around before they found A few that they could fit in. When, later on, Some folks had gone And they could sit together, To go around Alas, they found, Would seem to take forever! ’Twas quite a feat To ascend the seat And climb to the row behind them; And people near, For them to hear, Said angrily not to mind them. Two girls got there And harmed no hair, but “Tricia” had a mishap! From out of a haze Asked a voice amazed What she was doing in his lap. Junior: Mary Louise Rutherford. If Mary has her lessons She gets her rouge box out And makes herself look pretty, And goes happily about. but if. by chance, the lesson’s hard Or if she’s had a date. Or if she wishes an excuse To hand her work in late, Then not only does she leave The rouge box quite alone, but she takes a box of powder white To add a sickly tone; Oh, then she looks so pallid, So tired and weary worn, That one is apt to think her A maiden love forlorn! ’Tis so she works her teachers To give her A’s and b’s, When, perchance, she really should Have a sprinkling of C's. Senior: Dwight Wesley Fairbanks. A dainty little girl so slim Down at Mattoon, made eyes at him, At a restaurant where the bunch Of fellows had dropped in for lunch. When 'Doc’ Riley saw this smile She kept sending all the while, He decided ’twould be fun To make Dwight really think he’d won The heart and soul of this maiden fair In the few moments he’d been there. So he and the boy who was his pard Quickly purchased and wrote a card. Addressed it to Fairbanks, I'rbana High, And dropped it in a box as they passed by. Millie Jackson” was the name They signed to it in their little game, but since the card came to the school. I height was made to feel the fool,— For some one read it right out loud Before the whole blamed football squad! The funny part,—or so we hear— It took Dwight Fairbanks ’most a year To find out, spite of all the jokes That the postal card was just a hoax. Junior: Leverett Allen Adams. Last year when our debating team Went to Decatur High, They looked around with eyes agleam To see what they could spy. “Oh. boys.” said Allen, “come here, all, Come read what’s on this plate! Here's the trophy for basketball When I )ecatur 'won the state'. Then Allen fiddled with the lock, He really meant no harm; but Allen got a sudden shock When he heard a great alarm.

I seated myself but immediately had to get up again as I couldn't find my hankie—my blue linen hankie that Cousin Nellie gave me for Christmas. I simply had to find it before I could start studying because it was a treasure of mine, and anyway my nose was dripping! After three minutes of searching and sniffing. I found my handkerchief in my pocket. Of all places, well— 'Then after attending to my snoot. I opened my history l)ook and started to read the assign- ment. but as luck would have it I couldn’t re- member what pages we were to read. I asked Junior about the assignment but he didn’t seem to know. It does look as if he would pay some heed to Mr. Carlson! I finally read pages 345, 34 . and 347. I don’t know if they were the right ones or not, but they made interesting reading. lust in the middle of The Hattie of Hull Run 1 got to thinking that mayl e I'd forgotten to turn off the shower when I'd dunked me this morning. However. I supposed that someone heard it running and went in to turn it off, and man if they hadn’t it served them right for hur- rying me so. I had just dipped into The Election of I860 when the bell rang. I gathered up my belong- ings and scurried out of the room as I didn’t want W endell to stop me and ask if I’d done anything about the committees for the Delta Sigma Reception, because I hadn’t. Second Hour Class: I stomped into the history room and right on up to my seat in the top row. Stepped on Scott’s and Laurie’s feet; my gosh! I can’t help it if I have such big feet. Mr. Carlson lectured about things: but I don’t know what things, because Beth and I were busy comparing notes on our operations. Anyway, long at the last of the period I heard our instructor mention newspapers. I supposed lie wanted us to read about some stuffy affair like the king of Germany—that Rudolph Spitler fellow—and how he makes even the children play soldier. Personally, I think he’s awfully dull and much prefer Walter Winchell. Then Mr. Carlson called on me to answer some awful question. I couldn’t, because I hadn’t even heard the question; so 1 kinda opened my mouth to make an excuse. Lady Luck was with me as I was saved by the bell. Third Hour Assembly: W e had a Latin Club as- sembly today. I was plenty riled because I had to sit beside a stupid fellow with red hair and freckles: while Susie was lucky enough to sit by that handsome boy in Miss Nelson’s room. While I eyed her with envy, the lame- brain beside me rattled on about the weather and the soy-bean crop in Saskatchewan. Fi- nally I told him to go soak his whiskers, but he thought I was getting playful and so I was let in for some of his original puns. Oh. if I’d only l een born a boy: perhaps I could have forced the | est to go away. But. no, 1 was cut out to be a girl, and a girl I am. Darnit! The bell rang and I was free to get up and leave that—that boy. I lost no time in doing that very thing. Fourth Hour Class: I turned up in rliet class without my lesson which was in my rliet Ixiok which was at home. That was my story and I was stuck with it. Martha had her lesson, of course, so I preyed upon her better nature and induced her to let me try to act as if I knew a little about participles and gerunds by looking on her book with her. It didn’t work as 1 had hoped though; for either Miss Bicdermann didn’t ask me the right question, or else I didn’t know the right answers. I struggled through the period and when the bell rang, managed to leave the room hanging on for dear life to a little of my self-esteem. Fifth Hour Lunch: I struggled through the line at the cafeteria and emerged with a tray con- taining my midday snack. Today, I had just mashed-potatoes and gravy, some veal, a com- bination salad, a piece of pineapple pie. and a chocolate sundae. If my appetite hasn't re- turned soon. I’ll have to see my doctor. My enjoyment of my meal was somewhat spoiled, however, when Macky mentioned the theme we had to write for rliet tomorrow Nevertheless, I managed to force the food down and beat the others at our table in finish- ing eating. Seventh Hour Class: Commercial geography class was just a wee bit dull today. ()scar was busy getting his algebra lesson and wouldn’t talk to me. I wanted to ask him about his date with Alice the other night, but lie wouldn't even open his mouth. He asked me what I came to geography class for. and I asked him what lie came for. He said to get his algebra lesson. It’s a wonder Mr. Janies doesn’t Hunk him for not paying attention!

Even the most fertile ideas fall on barren soil: and new thoughts stagnate ere they are born. 1'ailing in every- thing else, the editor trots out that long spawned old crowbait. the perennial problem of what hook one should choose in preparing for a protracted stay on a desert isle. The ordinary book-reviewer invariably chooses a book as “Anthony Adverse,” Gone with the Wind.” or “Emily Crocker’s Cook Hook. The first two sail into our pen merely due to the virtue of being a best seller. Such a choice on the part of the reviewer smacks very much to me of some mercenary connection with the publishers, and. anyway, the only advantageous features of these two books lies in their great length. As for the third choice, a hasty glance at Emily Crocker’s introduction will disclose some rather distressing information: namely that the highly tested Crocker recipes are utterly worthless without Emily Crocker’s “Raise All baking powder? 'The most practical choice yet made by anyone is that of Paul Whiteman, famous orchestra leader. Ordinarily, we expect very little in the way of common sense from a pot-bellied orchestra leader whose sole service to society is the rather dubious one of extracting a concerted I ley-nonny-nonny from the throats of twenty-five or thirty otherwise rational musicians. Yet this same fat maestro headed his list of books with the English dictionary. In making this selection. Mr. Whiteman entertains few intentions of vegetating among the coconuts while slowly starving to death. Ear from it. For him. and for me. the dictionary is a book of highly utilitarian information. Hy looking up the necessary words, he can find prac- tical recipes, ways of making and building fires, housing instructions, ideas for making utensils and tools, and diagrams of useful knots. The dictionary is an excellent guide for primitive living: but this is not its only virtue. As a time killer, it is unexcelled. A single word should provide sufficient food for a day’s contemplation, for every word is a springboard to numerous others and to the various ideas attaching to each. Eater, after spelling all the words in reverse order, one could assemble various word combinations, a process capable of being carried on indefinitely: and tiring of that one might set each chapter to music after the manner in which the neophyte is made to extemporize from the telephone director during Hell Week. In truth, the possibilities of the dictionary are inexhaustible. I think that the English Dictionary would be treasured long after “Anthony Adverse” or “Emily Crocker’s Cook Hook” had gone to chink the cracks in the cabin walls. Wkndki.i. Sharp. DIARY OF A SCHOOL DAY (Continued from Page 121) I was glad when the bell rang because I wanted to go get a drink. The study of geog- raphy was just a little dry today and so was I ! Eighth Hour Class: Dramatics class was more interesting today. Two girls gave readings and I never once dropped off to sleep. Mrs. Hamilton then talked on diction, pro- nunciation. and articulation. I couldn’t quite get it straight about articulation, but I probably won’t care a whoop about articulation this time tomorrow, so why should I fret? The class was let loose when the bell rang. Ninth Hour Study: Pud. Cocky, and I discussed hair styles, finger-nail polish, chiffon hose, and other such impotent topics. 'The study teacher asked us to be quiet, but we were too wound up to stop then ; so she proceeded to scatter us over the room so that we wouldn’t giggle and disturb Donald Koehler, the scholar. However, we created a kind of sign language which made things even funnier. The poor teacher was quite happy when the ball rang. So was I because then I could go home and rest--Oh. no.

Page 141 THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY Hatchet Oration (Continued from Page 114) Came running girls and boys. The teachers came a-running, too, And each of them would know And each one asked the other “Say, where did the burglar go?” At iast |K or Allen realized That though he meant no harm. He had the whole school all surprised With the burglar alarm! Senior: June Lucile Mathews. “For half an hour I have the car So I guess we can’t go far.” Said June to Betty one fine day,— “Come, Donna, too—what do you say?” Of course, they couldn’t know that About ten miles out they’d have a fiat; Now June and Betty, and Donna, too, Said each in turn, “What will we do? And it turned out not a single one Knew at all how it was done. Soon a strange man, driving by. Stopped as he chanced their plight to spy. He offered to change the tire for them, And told them to climb in again: Since they had need to hasten back,— He’d fasten the extra to the rack. He changed the tire and the girls in fright, Didn’t watch him as they might. But thanked him kindly, climbed right in, And hurried back to town again! And here they found their tire was gone; The stranger hadn’t put it on! And now June says, alas, alack,— She will learn how to use a jack. Junior: James Junior Colbert. Oh. Junior has a packard, Yes, Junior has a car; Of all the cars he ever had It's the nicest one by far. He likes to take it out in style, Drive slowly down the street And gaze around with hope perchance A pretty girl to meet. He followed one the other day. As she gaily tripped along; And hoped that he could pick her up Without really doing wrong. It suddenly began to rain. The poor girl slipped and fell: Then Junior muttered to himself, “Now here’s my chance! It’s swell.” He found she’d sprained her ankle, So he “picked her up” in sooth. And took her home, and now he says, “That’s nothing but the truth.” Senior: William Boyd Williams. Oh, Billie was a soldier In Southern Illinois; He thought ’twould be romantic To l)e a soldier boy. But all of soldiering is not. As we’ve often heard it said, To dress up in a uniform And go out on a parade. And it wasn’t so pleasant As ’twas supposed to Ik . When Billie found it was his turn At the duties of K. P. In the wielding of the paring knife He found himself so dumb,— Instead of peeling the potato He tried to peel his thumb; More awkward yet, he found himself With his thumb wrapped in his hanky, But when he cut his finger, too, Twas even yet less swanky. He bound the thumb and finger up And tied them tight together. And thus, with but three fingers left It seemed to take forever. But Billie hurried all he could And tried to l c quite deft,— For fear that if it took too long,— He’d have no fingers left. Junior: Robert Forrest Fisher. Bob forgot about the bumps In the cemetery road, So he hit them forty miles an hour,— Against the lawful code. He forgot his boy friend rode behind, But heard him hit the top, And heard him holler out in pain “For goodness’ sakes, do stop.” Bob stopped the car, and turned around, To learn if Jim were hurt When another car came up along With a sudden spurt. A “Uni Cop” in a big, bass voice, From the car that hovered near. Called out to them, “Get going, lad. You can’t do that in here!” Senior: Charles Maxmillian Flewelling. “I’ll bet a buck,” 1 said to Chuck, “That Julia didn’t wait for you to date Her for the Military Ball!” “Oh. no,” said he, “for Jimmy E.

And at a friend’s in town, T hey took the hatchet from the nail And cut my pussies down! And when 1 came back home that night, 'They’d spared not a single bough 'That I could have saved and cherished. And looked at and loved right nozv. It was stacked in neat piles of kindling wood.

When Julia let me know She didn’t wait, but made a date, With Jim for a picture show. And it was not that I forgot, That I went that night to call; I sat right there, nor turned a hair When Jim came in the hall. We all three sat, and tried to chat, For a full half hour, or more:— His face got red: and from all he said, I could see lie was getting sore. Then I said I might, if ’twas all right, Go along and see the show! So, with a grin. T climbed right in. With them in his brand new Ford. How Jim did pout, as we started out, And uttered never a word! But I didn’t go to the Rialto With them when we reached Champaign,— T left them there, but he'll hardly dare To beat my time again. Junior: Emily Relief Weber. Her father must have loved her And his heart been filled with joy, When he saw his baby girl Was not another boy. Else why by all that’s holy, When this sweet baby came. Should he have given to her “Relief as a middle name! But in spite of that she’s grown to Ik A lovely maiden fair, Who does not lack for courtiers To praise her beauties rare. She is, with all her beauty, A willful miss, they say, Who often gets cpiite angry, I f she does not have her way. When Bob Rea came a little late For a date, it made her sore! And in his face as he stood there She angrily shut the door! Robert thought he was dismissed, Went home without concern; While Emily wept the evening through, And hoped for his return. Senior: Martha Jane Waltmire. Mart and her friend Helen Went on a double date: Then Helen spent the night with Mart, Because they got home late. Neither girl would tell us Who the fellows were, And Mart says she will never tell What fellow went with her.

Junior: Dorothy Elaine Bell. A dainty little person, With a piquant face, Charming in her manners And with a lithesome grace: In acting she has genius, In lessons she has wit, But all the talents that she has Have not spoiled her one bit. She still has simple friendship, Nor does she stoop to guile, Hut greets us all whene’er we meet With a really friendly smile. She’s worked hard on the Echo Hut when the work is done, We all l K k back and realize That she has made it fun. She keeps us all a-laughing, With her fun and wit! So is it any wonder That Dorothy makes a hit? Senior: You’ve done your best, I will admit 'Phe foibles of my class to hit, We’ve each of us filled our boast, And we have given roast for roast. I hope that you’ll not take amiss, Nor misinterpret the real gist Of what I’ve said, pray you now Accept my friendship’s kindly vow. Permit me now to toast your class Ere from your circles we do pass, Here’s to you, Juniors, one and all, May all good things to you befall: Success to you, a world of fame!

Little do they know that I’ve already ruined my chances by my poorly done rhetoric themes and my daily history tests. That practice teacher and his true and false questions are my jinxes. I suppose I really should study tonight. After all. I can’t get around the fact that I do have a history quiz in the morning. It’s just a little thing, covering three long chapters about such interesting topics as “The Consolidation of Industry. “Labor and the Machine Age,” and. last but not least. “Industry and Tariff.” Nice little bed-time stories—“heavy, heavy hangs over thy head”—1 ought to sleep well to- night ! All that 1 know about “trusts” and “tariffs” could be put in a nutshell and that’s stretching it a mite. Carlson said that the Sherman Anti-Trust Law was important, didn’t he?

I’ve enough to learn without his adding more. Besides, how am I supposed to make A in history if the radio’s going full blast? I'll have to learn to concentrate—higher wages, shorter working hours. Oh—there goes the telephone. Now if that's for me I’ll— Yes, I’m coming. “Hello? Oh, it’s you, Mary.—Yes, you have play practice in the morning,—Eight o’clock.—History?

Junior Response: Gkrtrcok Cokkkry THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY Page 146 O UR SCHOO L BUREAU Freshmen and Sophomores: The freshman and sophomore classes have not had the chances like the seniors or juniors to show their abilities; but they do have a good start. In tin- sophomore class there are several popular leaders. Kathryn Nelson is known for her beauty; Charlotte Dillavou and Betty Lee Hood for their leadership; Ralph Clark for his musical ability; Jim Davis for his wit: Wayne Gher, as well as Bill Parks, for their football playing. One hears many familiar sayings among sophomores, such as Hazel Matter’s “Current Events”. Eliz- abeth Long’s “Where's Harry?”, and 'Tommy Tyrrell’s “You're O. K.” Several students have peculiarities, such as Betty Burgess’ boy-like actions, Connie Colvin’s talking back to the librarian, David Firebaugh’s stubby hair, Carlos Hudson’s dimples, Bernard La Valle’s curly locks, Bob 'Thompson’s long strides, and Bob Reedy’s comical smile. The freshman class has not had as much opportunity to show their abilities, but we all know in the future they will prove themselves to be successful. Juniors: In the junior class there are several outstanding students. In the field of athletics, we are proud of Lew Franklin, Chuck FTewelling, Bill Williams, Oscar Adams, and Harold Good. Some of the athletic- minded girls are Louise Wright, Henrietta Mies, Betty Edwards, Ann Bachelor, Ann Botlnvell. and Pat Strickler. Some of the outstanding accomplishments of this class were made in music by Leonard Bantz, Bob Barnes, and June Swearingen. Anne Roberts, Betty Brewer, Gertrude Corkery, Gordon Gregory have kept their grades above the average. We thank Ruthic Smith for her likeable personality; Leo Rector for his popularity, and Betty Anne Shaft for leaving us alone. Other things to be noticed are: Oscar Adams, always busy with his women; Helen Baldwin acting sophisticated; Jimmie Easterbrook acting like an athlete; Margaret Hanawalt telling everyone about her curly locks: James Harno looking unhappy ; June Mathews looking for Georgie; Rowland Smith’s “Oh. boy;” Edward Soloman’s asking “Where’s Evelyn?”; and Chester Wright’s saying “This way, please,” Princess 'Theater). 'The Junior Class of 1937 is proud of their accomplishments and we hope they continue in their rapid progress. Seniors: We are fortunate to have in our school classes some very talented students and also people who have outstanding mottos or habits. It is my privilege to introduce some of them to you. In the senior class, in the field of music. John Dolch has won many awards for his musical ability. Lee Summers, Elizabeth Schoch, Leonard Cole, and Dorothy Robbins have also won honorable mention. Ruth Brewer has taken all records in shorthand speed, and Margaret Cochrun has the highest speed in typing. 'The G.A.A.’s have several girls that we should be proud of, such as Jackie Pieper, Marie Rothhaas, and Dorothy Hegenbart. 'The class has scientifically-minded young gentlemen who have helped us during the year: Allen Adams. Scott Littleton, and John Gregory. 'These boys should be watched in future years for their achievements. Several seniors have outstanding habits, or sayings, that are noticeable to everyone. Annie Bell An- derson’s saying, “Did you see Overgard today ?”; Virginia Brown and Rosemary Royer harmonizing in “We’re pals;” Clinton Cobb repeating “well” very often; Thelma Jones is constantly saying Oh. kid.” Janet Way acts as sweet as ever. 'The senior class of 1937 thanks the under-classmen for their cooperation during the past year, and we know they will also have outstanding classes in the future. Page 147 THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SEVEN ROSEMARY FOOTBALL SUMMARY (Continued from Page 67) The game of games! Irbana defeated Champaign! Both teams were undefeated and considered to be among the finest in the state. Playing a calm, machine-like game, the kind that had carried them through half of the season undefeated, the Urbana team won another victory. Hilly Williams, the Oran?� high scorer, carried the ball over the line for the first touchdown. Hob Fisher scored the winning touch- down by being on the receiving end of a forward pass. The try for point on the second touchdown was good and though Champaign scored twice, they were not able to push over the extra point. No. 3 to- wards a Big Twelve Championship! 'The next game the Racers took in early seas • tyle by crushing a rather weak Mattoon team twenty- six to nothing. The Mattoon boys put up a scrap but they were no match for Urbana’s speed. No. 4 to- wards a Big Twelve Championship! Urbana took a breathing spell from conference competition and met a plucky eleven from Clinton. Clinton had a good defense but they were unable to stop the Urbana half-backs. Clinton scored once on the second team but there was a large margin between the final scores. 'The final game of the season was with Lincoln. Lincoln had held a powerful Springfield team for three quarters and the I rbana team realized they were in for a scrap. They were not disappointed be- cause the Lincoln boys held the team in check for the first half. Hilly Williams left the game, but Chuck Flewelling took up the scoring responsibility and scored three times. 'The final score was nineteen to noth- ing. 'This win assured at least a tie for the championship, but when Danville beat Springfield that night. Urbana was the undisputed champions of the Big 'Twelve. No. 5 and UNDISPUTED CHAMPION- SHIP!

I believe it tells more about my grandfather's true character and is certainly more unique than any journal telling of daily events could be. The book was found with others of its kind after my grandfather’s death. He had started keeping his account after he married my grandmother, and they had moved to Texas in 1878 to enable grandfather to regain his health. T he account shows how those two young people gradually made their way upward from having noth- ing to realizing a comfortable income. Each penny that was earned and spent was put down. Finally the pennies saved out-balanced those spent. The first week my grandfather repaired some watches and clocks. The second week he saved some money by repair work and playing his violin at a ball in Austin. He kept an accurate account of the money spent for food and other necessities. Meat was evidently a luxury liecausc it was not mentioned very often; and when it was recorded, the price was high. Here and there was listed the money spent for a bit of ribbon, a new bonnet, or material for petticoats and dresses. One of my grandfather's greatest pleasures was that of presenting gifts, as the accounts in the book show. Often he went beyond his means to make grandmother happy by giving her a gift. The gift was usually a broach, but now and then a necklace or locket. There were amusing as well as sentimental accounts. The family had always known grandfather to be a prohibitionist. However, they were due for a surprise. About once a month in the account lx ok was one phrase that appeared in small writing. “One glass of beer 10c.” The purchase of a horse and buggy was a grand event. His pride could almost be seen in the writ- ing. About half way through the book a doctor’s bill was recorded. However, that was a joy to grand- father. Xow he was the proud father of a little son. Finally in a later book is an account of the selling of the grand old home on the river, together with the store and furnishings. Grandfather’s health was regained. The happy couple packed their belong- ings for a trip to Champaign, Illinois. There they were to make their home and educate their children. Janet Way.
