Finis.—Graduation. 22 Class Poem Out from the swelling, triumphant song, Out from the starry, enchanting light, Out from the rose-laden air we have passed— Ah, we are leaving so much tonightl— Teachers and class-mates, whom we have loved, And all the school-life in which we movedl Yes, we are leaving great wealth behind, But ah, we carry away much morel For deep in our hearts own treasure-hold, We have hidded away a precious store Of love, and friendship, and words held dear, And rolicking days of right good cheer. Out of our books we have mined great wealth; Though we forget our rules of art, Laws of science, and Latin verbs, We have by far the better part, Since, taught to think and to discern, We have been learning how to learn. Here is a line and there is a verse, Little fragments of wise men’s lore That may sometime bring to our hearts perplexed, Some faith, lost sight of, back once more; And here some poet’s picture bright That may refresh our wearied sight. But most of all we hold this dear, {Though scarce past childhood, and untried) That we by will can make a way Through baffling wilds or deserts wide. Yes, we have left great wealth today, But ah, we take much more awayl 24 H. D.

ROBINSON College Preparatory Course 50 i The Dear, Dead Days “Once, in the dear, dead days beyond recall, When on the world the mists began to fall .” Such thoughts as these are in accordance with the feelings of many who will graduate this year. To be sure, these days are not yet dead, and consequently not yet beyond recall; on the contrary, they are very lively and altogether most enjoyably, realistic. Although mid-term examinations are scarcely over, the mists have already begun to obliterate the knowledge acquired from the works of Alfonso Gerald New- comer, and from the illustrious poets of the land of John Bull. As the eve of graduation draws near, we gaze upon our respectable accumulation of school books with considerable self-satisfaction. It is truly astonishing how much a person can put into his cranium, in the short space of four years; the volume of the books studied in that time exceeds that of Webster’s dictionary. However, dear reader, do not infer that a senior knows all there is in the dictionary, for only too often, it is said, the graduate has not what could be called a very healthy acquaintance with that respectable volume. But this is hardly a fair estimate of an eighth termer, for you, no doubt, understand that a wise man never tells all he knows; that is what makes him wise. For without a doubt, there are first class mathematicians, grammarians, poets, novelists, and historians among the members of the June ’13 class. However, since people of such mental capacities are always very modest, I shall refrain from any further remarks concern- ing their erudition. Some time in the far off future, when we shall be able to look back on our youth as “the dear, dead days beyond recall,” we shall possess a rich collection of experiences on which to draw for the entertaining reflections characteristic of old age. Then the troubles and worries of school life take on the golden halo of “fond recollections.” Then the abominable English lessons, the brain-fagging math lessons, and the sleep-produc- ing history lessons will all become pleasant memories of dear old school days; so the old folks say, and surely they ought to know. In this same far away future, when many of us will be chained down to the more serious problems of life, we shall look back with yearning memories on the exciting basket-ball, base-ball, and football games which placed our school in its enviable position of athletic supremacy. Our valient track teams will again and again race on to victory, before our wandering thoughts have again resumed their 51 plebeian occupations. When the dinner hour approaches and we grow hungry, as of old, we shall have imaginary glimpses of the dear old clocks that hung on the wall, the dear old tickers that clicked off the minutes until 12:20; then we shall be only too glad to remember those independable, indestruct- ible and indigestible pies and cakes that we used to devour. In these golden days ahead of us there will be many an idle moment which will permit the jokes and the humorous episodes of the class-room to live again—this time in perfect peace and freedom, beyond all restraints of school-room dignity. On hot Summer days when perhaps the office and the shop would be forgotten, those trips in the woods and on the river, those immortal picnics which can never be duplicated, will come thronging into our receptive minds and add new life to our waning spirits. When we grow lonesome we shall be cheered by recurring thoughts of the happy youths who inhabited the halls of Washington High School, so long, long ago. Thus be it ever. Until our dying days may we carry with us our four years of precious memories, memories far more precious than the deeds they commemorate. In complete justification and recommendation of a high-school education, it remains to be said that if a person learns nothing whatever, which is improbable, he gains at least a considerable number of enjoyable experiences which will surely aid in developing his memory. We, however, of the June T3 class, are more fortunate, insomuch as the Board of Education has seen fit to present us with diplomas. This fact speaks volumes, as previously intimated; for to us, these few sheets of paper represent four years of hard work intermingled with friendly enjoyment. So the story ends; we began with a diploma; now we end with one, only to prepare to conquer others. “Such is life.” WILLARD F. ROUSE, June T3. 52 February ’14 Class “Gresham 612, please. Hello, is this Jennie? I just couldn't wait to see you to tell all about the class. We have had our party, chosen our pens, and — “Begin at the first? All right. On February 27, the class organized and chose the officers. “Yes, perhaps you do know some of them, since you went to Washington before you moved to the wilderness. Lloyd Tegart is president — “Play football? Of course he does! Did you suppose we would select someone who had never done anything for Wash- ington? John Tilford is vice-president; Hazel Colt, secretary; Albert Godel, treasurer; and Paul Harvey sergeant-at-arms. Everyone of them is a real Washingtonian. “The next thing of any importance was the acquaintance party. Annabelle Wagstaff offered her home and no time was lost in accepting it. We don’t always have a chance to toast marshmallows at two fire-places. We went in full force. In- cluding our honorary member, there were fifty-three present. “Didn’t I tell you? Why, Mr. Earl. Oh, no; it doesn’t bother us a bit that he is the head of the mathematics depart- ment. We rather like to have a celebrity for honorary mem- ber. Besides, a chance to have a successful foot-ball and base- ball coach doesn’t fall to every class. “Well, I was telling about that party. We had all kinds of music from rag-time to classical. I wouldn’t dare to say which was the more popular. Then some of us played cards while others danced on the open porch. “Eats? Well, I should say so! Everything you can think of, from pickles and punch to candy and cake. We all enjoyed ourselves immensely and didn’t leave until quite late. Just before leaving we had a flashlight taken. Everyone of us jumped so the picture was a failure, but, anyway, we had lots of fun getting arranged. “My three minutes will soon be up and I’m not half through yet. Class flowers were chosen at the next meeting. Wont we look perfectly lovely with shower bouquets of red rose buds? We had to choose colors which would harmonize, so picked out red and white. “Oh, one thing I have forgotten. Our class motto is ‘In the present lies our future.’ What do you think of that? “No, only the June classes have Portanias. We have a class Lens, though, and if you subscrbe for it next term you will know all about us. Good-bye.

There’s speakin’, an’ lights, an’ music, An’ flowers—oh, they was fine! ( But I’ll tell you, of all those sister got, The best bouquet was mine!) An’ Helen looked just lovely, In that new gown o’ hern; She said she guessed she knew now, ’Bout all there was to learn. She said she wouldn’t mind it, Not to go to school no more, But at home, I—heard—her—a-cryin’, Behind the closet door! June ’13. The Freshman’s Soliloquy They call us little Freshies, Say the green is on us yet, But the ripest of ’em round here Aren’t so very luscious yet. We’ve gathered in from something like A hundred different schools; We’re not quite on to all the ropes, And blunder at the rules. We’ve wandered, much bewildered, Up and down and round and back, And searched for rooms evasive Along the beaten track Our names, they tell us, do suggest The German father-land, And limp and flounder on the tongue Of every teacher, and “What’s in a name?” says one of them With look and manner troubled. “Why here’s the alphabet complete, With half the letters doubled!” But just because we’re freshmen We don’t fix the name of “dunce;” Why, six or seven years ago, You all were freshmen once! 63 Helen Lenker. m CHfiftls H29E6 W. H. S. Agricultural Society Washington High School has representatives in one activity who thus far have not paraded in the calcium glare. They are the ambitious agriculturists, the growers of cucumbers and cab- bages, asparagus and artichokes, radishes and rutabagas, and all the rest of those nameless articles of vegetation that look so good and taste so much better. These aspirants for the prizes, award- ed each year, have for several weeks been spending much of their spare time giving the turnips and the onions their daily encour- agements, and results are now beginning to create a feeling of sat- isfaction and confidence among the sons and daughters of the soil. For the boys are not the only ones among the soil-disturbers who are working to secure for Washington the leadership in this latest “back-to-the-land” movement. The prospects of an excellent showing in the competitive exhibit at the close of the term are exceptionally bright, for each member of the Washington delegation has cheerfully borne the good-natured ridicule which is to be expected, and has worked hard and will continue to work hard and faithfully in the hope of bringing the biggest collection of points home to Washington. The Talk by Booker T. Washington On March 24, we had the privilege of listening to one of the most interesting and beneficial talks that have ever been de- livered at Washington High School. It had been rumored for a few days around school that Booker T. Washington was coming to address us; so when we were called to assembly that Monday morning, we all knew whom to expect, although we could not 65 possibly know what a good talk was in store for us. As soon as Mr. Washington was introduced to us, he created a most friendly atmosphere by smiling the kindest of smiles. He wasted no time in eulogizing our assembly hall, but immediately pro- ceeded with the story of his life. He told us amusing incidents of his first days at school; how he acquired his name, and how he found and met the necessity of wearing a hat. However, he quickly passed over these details and came to his real life work- the building up of Tuskegee Institute. He told of his trouble in financing the affair and in starting the different in- dustries; how he failed three times in trying to make brick, but finally succeeded in his fourth attempt. He showed the advan- tage given to earnest people of his race by Tuskegee, and showed the fine results coming from it. Throughout his whole talk, two characteristics of his stood out plainly: His determination to accomplish what he has started, and his desire to help others. His talk abounded in epigrams. He said that he had once been praised for making such a sacrifice of his life, but had replied that he had never made a sacrifice. He said further, “The indi- vidual to be pitied is the one that lives for himself.” Such a talk as this surely could not help but make us at least think seriously for a while. lUL. 67 The Interscholastic Debate The third annual interscholastic debate was held on the evening of the third of April. Our teams were well prepared and as usual, “capped” the debate without much trouble, win- ning 7 out of the possible 8 points. The particular question at issue was the “single six year term:” “Resolved, that the term of the President of the United States shall be limited to six years, and that a President be not eligible for re-election.” The debate between Washington and our rivals from across the river was held at Washington. Our affirmative team, Jay Sechrist, Mark Conklin, and Horace Teirs, showed so conclu- sively that the single term was absolutely necessary for the welfare of the Nation, that the objections of C. Edison Wingard, Clarence Young and Russel Case, of Lincoln, were quite futile. However, the teams were both strong and made the debate very interesting for the large audience that attended. Meanwhile, our negative team, Ernest Peterson, Edward Boyrie and William Edris, had journeyed to Jefferson, and there met the affirmative team of that school. Jefferson struggled ineffectually to prove the advisability of the single term, but were completely snowed under by the weight of the contrary arguments. A 2 to 1 decision was accorded in our favor. The representatives of Jefferson were James Reed, Raymond Buck- ley and George Hailing Our fellows all acquitted themselves creditably. The affirm- ative team was an especially strong one, as strong, perhaps, as any that ever represented Washington. Both teams were coached by Mr. Veatch and owe much to the training he gave them. A few mornings after the debate the school was re-pre- sented with the cup given by Mr. Alexander Keer. This cup, by reason of the three successive victories, now becomes the property of the school, and may permanently repose on the library shelf. We hope Washington may soon place another be- side it, for whether it be won in football or in debate, “hard- ware” will always prove very acceptable. Debating Teams Affirmative Team Jay Sechrist Mark Conklin Horace Tevis Negative Team Edward Boyrie 69 William Edris Ernest Peterson When the curtain was drawn on the evening of April 11, a laughing, singing bevy of Spanish senoritas danced on the stage and took the audience by storm. Sixty-five maidens in the bril- liant colors of far-away Spain—red and orange, with black man- tillas and scarfs. Miss Oberg and Miss Young received merited applause for their duet, the most melodic of all the evening’s melodies. Miss Knox, the contralto solist, is a Washington girl with a musical future, and sang her two songs with the ease and finish of a gifted concert singer. Mr. Foster (who, by the way, is “Dan”) surprised the audi- ence by appearing upon the stage wholly feminine-decorated, and gave the Toreador song in full costume and voice. A veritable fairy was Phila McDuffee, as she tripped onto the stage to the opening chords of “The Merry Zingara.” Her quaint Spanish dance was very well executed and would, of itself, have pleased any audience, but when, added to that, there was her singing, as clear and sweet as a bell, the audience was thoroughly delighted. The dance—“Tarantella”—was a merry romp, three groups of girls whirling and skipping to the accompaniment of the jingling tambourines. “The Spanish Waltz” differed from the first as decidedly as the different moods of the Spanish maide s. Rhythmical, dreamy—it was done beautifully by the four girls. These dances were drilled by Miss Wold, the gymnasium instruc- tor, who should be complimented on her work. The instrumental duet by the Misses Ewart, and the solo by Miss Erma Ewart were well rendered and well received. This music, as well as the dances, were welcome changes from the singing, which might otherwise have become monotonous. “In Old Madrid” was the most tuneful chorus, and as the audience recognized an old friend in a pretty new dress, they demanded a repetition of the familiar melody. The closing cho- rus, “Carmena,” is a charming waltz song, typical of the Spanish music, in its rhythm and sweet minor strain. 70 The Minstrel Show In the first place, the medley of 20 voices was about the best ever; there was lots of swing and volume and snap, and the way the fellows held together did credit to Mr. Bittner, whose efforts did more than anything else to make the chorus work a success. Herbert Jewell gave a beautiful rendition of the popular ballad song, That Old Girl of Mine,” and responded to a warm encore. The first installment of the end men, Harold Bromberg and Albert Kidwell, then began the fireworks with rapid-fire patter which gathered in a laugh with every line. Every one of their jokes showed a “brand-new” tag, and a good hand went with every one. Bromberg’s song, “If He Comes In, I’m Going Out,” was well given and was followed by an encore. Bill Laughton’s solo, “Your Eyes, Your Smile and You,” was received with warm approval. Bill handled this difficult selection like an old stager, and deserved his applause. A real hit staggered us when A1 Kidwell conveyed to us the information that “Somebody’s Coming to Town from Dixie,” for so “delighted” and so interested did he seem in that “some- one with two eyes of brown,” that he was obliged to respond to several encores. A solo by Clyde Philips, “Luella Lee,” was exceptionally well rendered, and was well received. But say, Clyde, honest to grandma, her name isn’t really “Luella,” is it? But the big hit of the evening was the character skit by Kid- well and Edris. In this number the Lengthy One demonstrated his versatility, appearing as an Italian bootblack and an English “chappie,” to say nothing of the “scrambled egg.” Kidwell also delighted his audience with his perfectly rendered solos, and shared honors with Edris in this number. The “Plantation Scene,” in which the gifted double quartet gave several of the old favorites, proved a fitting close for one of the most attractive entertainments ever presented in interscholastic circles. 71 Dances Washington has again shown her superiority in interscho- lastic circles. Again she has excelled not only in “brains and brawn” but also in the less important, but equally enjoyable, phase of school activity. “Society,” Dances, Parties, “Skates” and Picnics have followed one another in a bewildering maze. June ’13 Dance.— The June '13 class made their debut in entertaining early this Fall with an elaborate dancing party, in the school gym- nasium. The invitations were an inducement in themselves for they were in folder form, printed in green ink and tied with a cunning yellow knot, thus carrying out the class colors. The committee efficiently used the school and class colors in decorat- ing, and, as a result of their labor, a most attractive hall greeted the many guests as they entered. Delicious punch and good music lent to the pleasure and gayety of the event. Miss Adams, Miss Wold, Miss Schloth, Mrs. Cavender, Mrs. Weist, Mr. Earl and Mr. Veatch were the patronesses and patrons of the dance. February ’13.— One day during January the February T3 class received some pretty “bids” from those who have “passed (?) into the Great Beyond” otherwise known as the Washington High School Alumni. Did they accept them? Well, yes! The February T3ers went in all their glory to meet them at the Rose City Park Club House. In the cosy rooms downstairs all kinds of games were arranged for those who did not dance. In the other rooms for those who did—well! There was good music, a splendid floor, and a jolly, jolly crowd; so what more can be said? Everyone said they had the “best” time at that party —but Class Day hadn’t come along yet! 72 Will any February T3er forget that last class affair at the Oregon Yacht Club? How the inevitable committee failed to show up at the proper time with the proper implements for eating? How the lunch was served “a-la-help-yourself” from the big table with papers and pencils and penknives for spoons, and plain paper for plates! They didn’t mind that, though, be- cause there was plenty to put on the plates. In the afternoon dancing was enjoyed for a while; after which all went over to the Oaks Rink and skated. However, when it was announced that the Class Lens was out, everyone rushed back to the Club House to find out their “futures” as per prophet, Fred White. After this was learned and they had somewhat recovered from the shock, a picnic supper was served and then the dancing began. A few favored ones were invited out for the evening and a very pleasant time was spent. Phreno Co-ed Dance.— The annual Phreno Co-ed dance came during the Christ- mas vacation. This was held in Waverly Hall on East 26th and Clinton. The girls and their escorts (for half of the girls successfully played the masculine role in such a way that the lack of boys was not felt in the least) arrived about two o’clock. Upon a table dainty programs, designed and fashioned by the committee, were placed and of course, the first momentous feature was finding partners for the dances. Those girls, who were skilled in playing the piano, furnished the music for the afternoon. The Alumni, as well as the active members, spent every moment in enjoying themselves. Afterwards followed one of those celebrated “Phreno” suppers. Who can or wants to forget it? There were tempting little sandwiches of enough variety to have been labelled “Heinz,” delicious salads, cakes, cookies and fruits. Before departing, the old-fashioned Vir- ginia reel was danced as a fitting climax to such a joyous event, long to be remembered by many as their last co-ed dance at Washington. Student Body— One of the most successful dances of the season was given by the Student Body of Washington High in honor of their victorious football team. Christiansen’s Hall was the scene of the “Last Scrimmage” and the 20th of December was the date. The entire football team was present and agree that a more pleasant evening could not have been enjoyed. The programs were made in book form. Each page was illustrated by a characteristic cartoon of the players. The cartoons were the cause of much comment and they added to the attractive- ness of the programs. The hall was decorated in Washington colors. Dark red flowers were hung in vases all around the room. Oregon grape and mistleto were placed in appropriate positions. 73 Parties Shortly after the organizing of the “memorable and illust- rious June ’13 class,” that organization held a “Get Acquainted party.” The committee in charge of the preparation and carry- ing out of the plans for the party spared no time or pains in decorating and providing for a royal welcome to all who were fortunate enough to be members of the class of June ’13. Brilliant and profuse decorations of crepe paper made the gymnasium very attractive and inviting, and added to the Hallow-e’en effect. A large crowd assembled in the “gym” on the appointed evening, every one in the best of spirits, and with the determination to get acquainted with their classmates or succumb in the attempt. Due to the fact that a majority of the class do not dance, numerous other enjoyable pastimes, such as “Ruth and Jacob,” “Last Couple Out,” a mock track meet, were engaged in until a late hour when “eats” were in evidence. Pumpkin pie, cider, doughnuts, and popcorn were the appropriate refreshments, and tasted, oh, so good! The mothers of a few of the June T3ers acted as patronesses for the evening and saw that the “children” behaved nicely at their first gathering. This party surely made secure the bond of fellowship and good feeling between the members of the class. January 21st, which as all June T3ers and February T3ers remember as a beautiful snowy evening, saw a large crowd of the above mentioned merry makers hurrying in the direction of the Baker theater, where they were to have the pleasure of seeing “The Virginian.” The reason for this gathering was the theater party given by the June T3 class in honor of the Feb. T3ers. The entire lower section of the balcony was re- served for the participants in the fun of the evening, and, with the interesting play and the jubilant spirit prevailing every- where, the evening was a “howling” success. After the play the merry party waded through the snow to Christensen’s Hall, where dancing and a general good time ensued, until a very late hour, when ice cream and cake were served. Judging from actions and comments the evening was a greatly enjoyed event and one long to be remembered. We June T3ers flatter ourselves on this novel way in which we entertained the jolly February class, and hope succeeding classes may take our experience as a model. February, T3.— On Friday night, November 15th, the February ’13ers forget Wordsworth and Coleridge, class plays, mottoes, colors and the like, and invited their friends to a party in the gymna- sium. From eight o’clock until time for refreshments dancing was in order—round dances and square dances, danced to 74 -I classical music and ragtime, and, sometimes, to no music at all. The various girls acted as musicians, and, as fast as ore became tired, another took her place, but when all were tired, the dancing continued just the same. Finally, the guests adjourned to one of the sewing rooms—or banquet hall, if you will—for refreshments. Here the girls of the class had prepared a most tempting spread—cake, sandwiches, pickles, punch, and other good things which disappeared with astonishing speed. The teachers, Miss Schloth, Miss Armitage, Miss Adams, Miss Hays, and Miss Pattee, entered merrily into the spirit of the occasion, and showed us that they could be really human when not marking zeros in class books. Mrs. Humphreys and Mrs. Wirt acted as chaperones. When the repast was over, the party returned to the hall for a few more waltzes and another Virginia reel. It was no early hour when it was decided that the time had really come for all revelers to cease their merry- making and disperse. February, ’14.— Early in the Spring term, the February ’14 class held a delightful “Get Acquainted” party at the home of Annabelle Wagstaff. Every member, by his presence, showed his newly acquired class spirit. Soon everyone felt that they had known their classmates for years, and consequently the fun was real rather than feigned. On the large open porch dancing took place, while within, those who did not dance, played cards or sang popular songs. The affair was a great success and each person left firm in the belief that February ’14 would accomp- lish great things in the future. Phrenos.— It was on Friday afternoon after school, when instead of gathering in room eight for the usual programme, the Phrenos were seen about the building in excited groups, which, after much confusion and clamorings of “wh everybody,” “why don’t you hurry,” etc., collected themselves in toone compact Phreno crowd. For the Phrenos were going to the “Middy Blouse” party which was to be given in honor of the eight girls who had become the new members of the club. A Phreno party, you know, is always fun, but a party where everyone is clad in informal middy blouses is really the height of “good time-iness.” Merrily they hied themselves, with the usual Phreno vigor and fun to Hawthorne and Twelfth streets, where they boarded a Woodstock car for the suburban home of the Nisley girls. After a walk of seven blocks through Woodstock mud, they arrived at the scene of the party. It was a beautiful day and the girls, who were fond of climbing cherry trees and playing tag in the yard, were loth to go inside the house where games had been provided. The main feature of the entertainment was an auction. The buyers were es- 75 corted into a room where rows of chairs were placed. Various articles were securely tied, labelled, and immediately sold at a high price to the excited audience. Imagine one’s surprise upon opening a little package, called a “Portrait of Washing- ton,”—only to find a delapidated, age-worn two-cent stamp! Two or three guessing games were played, then everyone went into the yard and romped through “Farmer in the Dell,” “Three Deep,” and similar sports. Soon a delicious Phreno spread was announced, and the Phrenos trouped joyfully into the house to partake of the usual standbys, supplemented by “toasted weenies” and “splendiferous” punch. As a grand con- clusion, the hostess took up the rugs, and various dances were enjoyed. Neakahni.— The first Neakahni party of this year took the form of a reception for the new members. After much consideration, it was decided to give a progressive party. Miss Grace Rose was the hostess and she certainly made a fine one. Eight or ten tables of happy and enthusiastic girls spent the afternoon playing “flinch,” “pit,” “anagrams” and an original game of pulling peanuts from a pile by means of a hat pin, played a-la- “jackstraws.” The annual Christmas party, to which our enthusiastic alumni members are always invited, was held this year at Lucile Baumer’s home. There was a “real” Christmas tree, beautiful in its glittering decorations; but the unique part of the tree was the music box under it. As the tree revolved the box gave forth many pretty strains. The house was tastefully decorated, but the girls had so much to discuss with each other that the effect was lost on their frivolous minds. 76 Skating February ’14.— An enjoyable skate was given by the February '14 class on April nineteenth. The special session was from half past ten until half past eleven o'clock, but by eight o’clock nearly all the skaters were on the floor. For the last year skating has been so popular that nearly everyone present had mastered the noble art. The novelty feature of the evening was the “Midnight Sun” which was especially enjoyed by the specta- tors. Skating was viewed in an entirely new light, in fact, several lights. Skating parties have been a very popular form of amuse- ment for Washington during the past year. In spite of the bruises and hard knocks received by those first learning the art, everyone declares that it is “great sport.” All manner of societies and organizations have given parties at the Oaks Rink and at last dancing, as a form of high school entertain- ment, has found a rival. June '13.— One of the biggest successes of the year in this line was the skating party given by the June '13 class. The June T3ers had worked up such a reputation as model entertainers in former affairs that a large number accepted the clever invita- tions printed in green and gold, the class colors. After the regular evening session of skating, the class and their guests had the Rink to themselves and they certainly did justice to the opportunity. At about 10:30 the joyful news that “eats” were in order greeted the ears of the gay but tired throng and—oh! how the cookies and coffee did disappear! Miss Barber, Miss Wold, Miss Adams and Mr. Earl were with the skaters and so those present were in good hands. February '13.— Another very successful skate was the one given by the Feb- ruary '13 class on a Saturday afternoon. From 1 until 7 skat- ing was in order all the time. Nevertheless, close watch was kept on the committee, conspicuous for their display of class colors, because it was known that they—well, what do com- mittees generally do? Piovide the “eats,” of course! Although tired, everyone departed for home at the hour of 7, glad as always that the February class had had a party. Phrenodikens.— Then comes the Phreno skate which cannot be lightly passed over. The invitations with the Phreno monogram, were unique and unusual, and those who received them were con- sidered fortunate. One Saturday afternoon in January about 40 Phrenodikens and their friends gathered at the Oaks Rink. The day was cold and snowy, but this made the skating all 77 . the more enjoyable as it was necessary to skate vigorously to keep warm. After the regular session, programmes were distributed and then the real fun began. Refreshments, or rather Supper (spelt with a capital S) was served in due time and again the Phreno girls were found to excel in the culinary art. After this feast, skating was again in order. When the party was over and the crowd was waiting for the street car, a snow ball fight was participated in by many of the more hil- arious members of the party, and so the joyous afternoon was brought to a merry close. The W. H. S. Band has not figured prominently in social events during the school year of ’12 and '13. One reason is that the Band is composed mostly of musicians—and musicians, you know, are more or less “queer.” So when you corral about thirty of such specimens of the genus homo you have a condition of affairs very much similar to that of a squirrel's nest in Winter. Of course, a number of “nuts” such as the Band contains are not just exactly the ones to cavort around with the tuxedos and Prince Alberts, but are more inclined to haunt the dark corners and solitude. Just twice have they voluntarily sought the light of day in this last year. Both these occasions were skating parties given at the Oaks rink. Ask anybody why Washington is so far ahead of the other prep schools, and the answer will be: “We have a thirty-piece Band.” And just ask anybody what events of W. H. S. society are most popular, and the answer is “The Band skating parties.” Just so. And to silence any of the scoffers, we might state that the first skating party was attended by over six hundred guests and that the second skate was given at the request and solici- tation of practically the whole school. The mere fact that accommodations at the rink were not sufficient for the crowd will remove any doubt as to the popularity of these events. The grand march, led by the skating members of the Band— about twenty-five—was one of the features which caused much comment. And the music the second session was another agreeable surprise. Taken all in all, these two parties have contributed much to the W. H. S. students’ appreciation of that popular pastime—roller skating. 78 Music The music department recently created in the high schools of Portland, has become a branch of much importance and in- terest. Three classes of music admirers may always be found in a high school; first, those gifted and educated in classical music; second, those having merely a love for melody and harmony; and third, those who wish to acquaint themselves with music in a general way, so that they may appreciate good music. To cultivate this musical tendency in the high schools, courses of music have been outlined and partially introduced into the courses of study. Washington High School has mani- fested its approval in more ways than one. Perhaps the most enthusiastic demonstration of this ap- proval is shown in the weekly assemblies. Mr. Chapman, who has charge of all music in Washington High School, as well as in the other high schools, directs the singing of patriotic and popular home songs. This weekly period of general assembly singing affords a much needed diversion from the drudgery of study, and gives the students a chance to give vent to their pent up enthusiasm which would otherwise exhibit itself dur- ing class periods. Then comes the teachers’ music course, taken by those who have chosen the teachers’ course as their outline for study. This course covers the technical part of music, reading and methods of instruction employed in teaching sight music reading in the grades. The course in Harmony is probably the one most beneficial to those students who are not taking the Teachers’ Course. Many are taking this to assist them in the pursuit of musical education outside of school. This course of instruction provides work in scale construction, inter- vals, triads, chord formations and connection, modulation and the harmonization of melodies; and, as conditions warrant, a course in counterpoint music history and appreciation. At present a course of two years in music may be substituted for one year of other studies of a similar grading. Those who are now studying harmony, find it very valuable and easily worth a period of school time. Other phases of musical activity in the school are the Boys’ Glee Club, the Girls’ Chorus, the Band and the Orchestra. There is much musical talent in Washington, demonstrated by the existence of these clubs, and opportunity for much improvement in musical Mnes is available. There is no reason why the Washington students can not excel in the branch of music as well as they have in the other regular school courses. An excellent start has been made and the future of Washington as a school renowned in musical activities has begun. 79 Girls' Chorus The Girls’ Chorus, with Mr. Chapman as director, reor- ganized at the beginning of the 1912 Fall term. At one of the first meetings, the election of officers was held, with results as follows: Adah Young, president; Miriam Young, vice-presi- dent; Phila McDuffee, secretary; Annabelle Wagstaff, treasurer; and Dorothy Rood, editor. The girls began the work rather dubiously, since previous to this time, they had always been under the direction of Mrs. Rose Coursen-Reed. But after the first few meetings, when the girls began to get acquainted with their new leader and he with them, the meetings took on a more lively tone. Almost immediately plans were discussed for giving an entertainment (sometime) early in the following year. As a Japanese fete and a Dark Town Frolic had been given in previous years, the Chorus decided to give the public the pleasure of this time beholding a Spanish entertainment. At the graduating exercises in February, the Chorus sang several numbers. A few weeks later, at the assembly held in honor of Washington’s birthday, a double quartette from the Chorus sang the “Star Spangled Banner” and “To Thee, O Country.” Soon after this, more detailed plans were made for the coming concert. Miss Wold was asked to direct the danc- ing; more Spanish songs were selected; the date, April 11, was decided upon; and finally, after much appointing of committees and searching of Spanish dictionaries, was chosen the name, “Espanol Tardicita,” which translated means “An Evening in Spain.” The Chorus staid at school that Friday afternoon. The girls went through a dress rehearsal at four o’clock, enjoyed a delicious supper at Kealy’s at six; had their pictures taken at seven; and then the fun began! “Oh girls, does this mantilla look foolish?” “A little more on this cheek, Miss Schloth,” “Do you think my eyebrows are black enough?” “Doesn’t So-and-so look sweet?” and so on until rising of the curtain. Then there was a sudden hush of admiration in the audience and—“the show was on.” After this cause of excitement, the chorus once more settled down to its pleasant weekly meetings, learned new songs and prepared for the graduating exercises of June.

The Interscholastic, State and United States Titles are ours. The team finished the season without a defeat and had but three points scored against them while they piled up a total of 212 points. The team was a well balanced unit and many critics claim that we could have defeated a great many college teams in the country. That is the record of the best team in the U. S. Washington’s strong line was a great factor in her string of victories. There were always large, gaping holes for the backs and the tackles were always there when the team was up against it for yardage. On defense the opponents were helpless and it is figured that more yardage was lost than gained through Washington’s line. Washington’s overwhelming de- feat of the Wendell Philips High School of Chicago gave her the National Title. Wendell was de- feated by Oak Park 33 to 3, but the statement of Coach Moulton of Wendell, to the effect that Washington could trim Oak Park by two touchdowns allays all doubt. Here’s to the Champs “12” of the U. S. A. Mr. Earl, who again coached team, has had great success the past four years. His teams lost but three games against the opposing schools, Columbia 8—5; Lincoln, 6—5, and Oak Park 6—3. Washington has always been in the running. No game was lost without a fight, and afterward the fellows on the other team could testify that they had played a game. Mr. Earl first develops the individual and then the team- work. The team-work of the line and backfield was like clockwork. 92 1 ft Mac captained the team and he was a great success. McLynn has played his last year with Washington. He now wears four stripes and is undoubt- edly the best guard in the league. He played fullback in the last three games and ripped many a hole in opposing lines. His snappy play, good sports- manship and football skill have won him his place. Mac has been chosen all-star guard for the past two seasons. “Wib” Morrow, a two-year man at end, is a fast, heady player. His specialties are unerring tackling and the knack of sticking to the elusive forward pass. Wib is fast on going down on punt and he has pulled down many a man in his tracks. He was chosen captain of the 1914 team. Beckett has represented the school for three years. His playing at tackle and later at half was a feature. “John- ny” is a strong offensive and defensive player and breaks up interference with ease and precision. Beckett’s 50 and 60-yard punts, combined with his pass- ing ability, made him a man feared by all. Marian Moore is a two-year man at guard. He also bears the distinction of being part of our all-star crew. Moore was shifted to tackle later in the season and he showed up well at that position. Marian is a hard, con- sistent player and was in every play. 93 “Moose” Johnson, the husky North Yakima farmer, always made it a point to make mince-meat out of his oppos- ing guard. “Moose” charged hard and fast and got the jumps on his opponent. Very little yardage was made through “Moose.” “Tub” Walker, “baby elephant,” was Johnson’s companion at guard. His weight was an asset and he closed up the holes quickly and surely. “Moose” and “Baby” made a good center team and with center back were unpunctur- able. Art Knouff, our little fullback, is a comer. He hits the line like a bullet and generally goes through like one. He seldom failed to gain. He is a hard, sure tackle and a great defensive man. Knouff also officiated at end, where he excelled on the airline stuff. Art will be a sensation next year. Tegart, at tackle, is a strong, shifty player. He broke up interference before it started and damaged offense in other ways also. “Teg” was wherever the play was and his gains with the ball were large. For these reasons and many others “Teg” joined hands with the rest of our all-star group. Tegart has played two years and always gave a good account of himself. 94 ii Bob Baker is a fast end, who is always beating the ball down on punts and who can get a forward pass out of a crowd. Baker made many gains by the air line for the team and deserves credit for his work. Bob was chosen all-star end. Bill Edris, our lengthy center who hails from Spokane, has bucked many heavy centers and they came off second best. Edris is a sure passer and never gets rattled. “Skin” played a great defensive game and was a wizard at spoiling opponents’ passes over the center of the line. Herb Normandin, chosen all North- west half, is a quick starter, hits holes with his eyes open, and is one hard man to pull off of his pins. Herb ripped up every line he went up against. Norm played at tackle last year and made a great showing. He was also chosen all-star Geo. Bovette, our “fightin’ man,” was the second quarter. He squirmed through opponents’ lines and went around end in great fashion. George ran his team well but he was another man who could have had a little more weight. 95 Issador Gasotske Murphy is a small, gritty player at end. He is fearless and tackles low and hard. “Issie” is great on breaking up interference and is fast on punts. Dan Foster was the last and heavy weigh; quarter. He made up the last quarter, too, so there was no va- cancy. He ran the team to perfection in the last three games. His voice was great and this helped much in the work of the team. Thayer is a big husky, red headed chap, who, with more seasoning, will help fill the vacancies left by depart- ing veterans. Bill Ball is a light man playing the wing positions. He is fast and also 2. good tackier. Ball participated, at end, in several of the games. 96 Spud Nomandin (brother of H. N.) is a comer on and back of the line. He is fast and shifty, mixed with plenty of weight. Spud will be a valuable man next year. Hoffman played at tackle in several of the games, but is a little light. Hoff is too much with the ladies to keep in condition. He may improve with age. Bill Laughton was our first quarter back. He ran his team well and ran the plays in sequence. Laughton played a great game at half also. He starts fast and hits the line with his eyes open. He ran back punts well through a broken field. This is Bill’s first year and with more weight will be a crack- erjack. 97 Soccer Team Williams (Coach) Laughton Johnson Brown Hazlett Ball Daly Williams Campbell Myers Gilbert 98 Soccer Although this sport has been played but three years in the Interscholastic League, it has become more and more popular. This game offers great inducement to players who are too light to play foot-ball, as this game does not require weight as much as speed. This sport has been taken up by many track athletes as it is a good exercise for conditioning the runners and jumpers for the later season events. Soccer is easily learned and is interesting to players and spectators alike. In the big eastern colleges Soccer has been taken up by many of the students and the interest is steadily increasing. However, in the Pacific Northwest this sport is comparatively new, but has already been taken up by a number of the inter- scholastic leagues in the large cities. In the first two years that the game has been played in Portland, Columbia has easily won the championship and has held the handsome silver cup put up by Judge Cameron for two years. However, this year Columbia has met with strong opposition and was tied with Jefferson for first place. Washington took second after giving all the teams hard games. 99 In ti e opening game of the season Jefferson High tied Colum- bia n a hard game. Washington beat Portland Academy and Lincoln each 3 to 0, but when Washington met Jefferson, owing to lack of practice and poor condition we were defeated 6 to 1. Several players were kept out of the game because of sickness and ineligilibility and the Washington team put up a very poor exhibition. The surprise of the season was when Washington beat Columbia by a score of 3 to 2. This was the first time Colum- bia had ever been beaten in Soccer in the Interscholastic League. The team as a whole played consistent ball. 101 102 THE SQUAD Windnagle Breaking World’s Interscholastic Record in Half Mile. Interscholastic Meet, 1912 After winning state honors and taking second place in the all-coast meet at Berkeley the Washington team demon- strated its superority over any Interscholastic team by taking more points than all the other teams combined. Washington won first in all the running events, except the hurdles from the 100-yard to the mile, and also first in the shot put and discus, and pole vault. Besides these points the members of the team won a number of seconds and thirds. The team, as a whole, showed itself to be in excellent condition, due to the tireless coaching of Mr. J. C. Veatch. The meet was a great success, despite a slight shower that fell in the course of the afternoon. Several records were broken, including the shot-put, by Johnson; the pole vault, by Krohn; the 880, by Windnagle, and the mile, by Wilson. Below is a summary of Washington’s points. 100-yard dash—Grant, first, 5 points. 220-yard dash—Grant, first, 5 points. 440-yard—Edwards, first, 5 points. 880-yard—Windnagle, first, Nelson second, 8 points Mile—Wilson first, 5 points. 120-yard hurdles—McLaren third, 1 point. Shot—Johnson first, Hedges second, 8 points. Discus—Johnson second, Rundquist third, 4 points Javelin—Johnson first, Hedges second, 8 points. High jumps—McLaren second, 3 points. Pole vault—Krohn first, 5 points. Broad jumps—McLaren third, 1 point. Washington did not enter a team in the relay, because of the muddy condition of the track. 103 Eugene Meet As was expected by track enthusiasts throughout the state, the fight for first honors was between Columbia University and Washington High. Owing to the fact that Columbia’s strength lay in the sprinting events and not in the distance runs, they were able to win the meet, despite the heavy rain and muddy track. The Washington team showed up well in the weights and distance runs. Johnson, holder of state interscholastic shot- put record, won the shot and took second in the discus. Rund- quist, of Washington, took first place in the discus. In the 100-yard dash Wylde and Smock failed to qualify, although Smock won his heat in the 220-yard trials. In the 440-yard run, Adams qualified for the finals, but drew a poor position in the finals and was boxed on the first turn and was unable to make up the distance lost. Staub won hisjieat in the 880, but was beaten by “Swede” Nelson, the forr. Vash- ington runner, who represented Astoria. In the mi filey, Washington’s entry, ran a game race for the four-time Hind the muddy track and put up a strong fight for a pi but was beaten out at the tape, but aheavier runner, Bovet ali- fied in the pole vault and broad jump, but did not in the finals. Casey and Tegart, weight men, both qual in the shot and javelin, but were beaten out in the final t s. The team would no doubt have made a much better r- ing on a dry day and on a faster track. The weather wi ? worst possible for a meet and the track was a sea of fully five inches deep. The team and members of the school who made the are greatly indebted to the various fraternity houses at Eug who entertained them so well during their stay, The Colt bia Meet. 104 105 SMOCK, Mgr. Portland Interscholastic Meet, 913 Because of the excellent weather, the keen competition and quickness in running off events, the 1913 Interscholastic Meet was one of the most interesting high school meets ever held in Portland. Columbia University was picked as an easy winner with the fight for second place between Washington and Jefferson. However, Washington sprung a number of surprises and gave Columbia a hard run for first honors. Jefferson did not make the showing predicted by its followers. After the first few events had been run off it was easily seen that the relay would decide the meet. This prediction proved true, and the meet ended with one of the closest and interesting relays ever run. Columbia, despite the loss of two of her relay team, ran a wonderful race, and although the Washington men, Smock, Gorman, Ross and Adams, all tried desperately they were unable to beat the Columbia sprinters. The 100-ya d dash was won by Goresky, of C. U., with Wylde, of Washington, close on his heels. The time was 10-1, equaling the Northwest record. The same sprinter won the 220 in 22 2-5. Bailey, of Jeffer- son and Smock, of Washington, took second and third respec- tively. Adams, of Washington, won the 440 from Malarkey, of Columbia in 53 seconds. This time is 1-5 of a second slower than Northwest record held by Nelson, formerly of Washington. 106 Staub, of Washington, easily won the 880 in 2 minutes 3 4-5 seconds, beating Langley, of J. H. S., several yards. However, Staub was forced to take second in the mile after a hard race, which Langley won in the fast time of 4 minutes 38 4-5 seconds. Telford proved a sensational dark horse in the javelin and broke the Coast Interscholastic record with a throw of 151 feet, 2 inches. As was expected, Johnson, of W. H. S., won the shot and discus with ease. Runquist, consistent winner in the discus, was off form and was forced to take third in this event. After a hard fight for first, Morrow, of W. H. S., took third in the broad jump. Pitman and V. Johnson both of Washington, tied for second in the high jump at 5 feet 6 inches. Another dark horse who must not be forgotten, is Casey, who took second in the shot. Although the team was disappointed in not winning from Columbia, they are to be complimented on their surprisingly good showing and too much credit can not be given to Mr. J. C. Veatch who had very little material at the start of the season and developed a team from practically new men. The men who have won their “W's” thisyear in track, are Adams, Casey, L. Johnson, V. Johnson, Morrow, Pitman, Runquist, Staub, Smock, Telford and Wylde. 107 Adams • Track Team U.

Because of the advantages of tennis the game has been taken up by a great many of the students. Tennis requires only two players to make a game, while any number from two to four may play. Tennis is a game that is easily learned, and furnishes plenty of good exercise. It is a game that has been adopted by many college athletes as aid to keeping in condition for other sports as foot-ball and track. Tennis owes much of its popularity at Washington to Mr. Herrigan and Mr. Jackson, who are great tennis devotes and have done a great deal in interesting the students in tennis and in a tennis club. Early in the Fall term a tennis club was formed and Miss Emma DuBruille was elected president and Charles Laughton secretary and treasurer. It was decided at this meeting to hold a handicap tennis tournament and Paul Adams was appointed as manager of the boys, and Miss Du Bruille of the girls. Over thirty boys were entered, and about twenty-five girls. Miss DuBruille won the girls singles, Miss Killam taking second honors. After a hotly contested match, Harold Wheeler won first place from Tom Richardson. After this tournament was finished there were many stu dents who played independently, until the rainy weather put an end to the use of the courts. This Spring the courts have been crowded on every warm day, and the interest in the game is keener than ever. As many of the students as possible should take part in this branch of athletics and bring it up to the standard of the other sports. no Ill 112 Interscholastic Championship Washington Line Up Jewell, Noren Forwards Fearnley, Grebe Forwards Foster Center Knovff, Gorman Guards Martin Guard Scores Washington 51 Portland Academy 12 Washington 36 Columbia University 29 Washington 24 Lincoln High 20 Washington 28 University of Oregon 40 Washington 32 Jefferson High 10 113 114 Interscholastic Championship Washington Line Up Catchers, Wilson, McCumm Pitchers, Tilford, Blair First Base Grimm Second Base Rathbun Third Base Ball Short Stop Grebe, Bollin Left Field Ganong CenterField, Pitman, Fields Right Field Driver Scores Washington 18 Washington 18 Washington 1 Washington 0 Washington 2 PorPand Academy 2 Hill’s Military Academy 0 Columbia University 3 Jefferson High 7 Lincoln High 9 115 116 Girls' Track Meet The first girls’ track meet of Washington High was held Wednesday, May 27, in the school gymnasium under the direc- tion of Miss Wold. About fifty girls took part and helped to make, the meet a success, for it certainly was a success from the broiad jump which opened the meet, to the exciting relay race which ended it. Edith Morgan carried off first honors, winning two events, the broad jump and the pole climb, jumping 11 ft. 8 in. in the formerand reaching the top in 10 seconds in the latter. Edith Moyer won the running high jump by a jump of 3 ft. 9 in. A rather disappointing record, since she had jumped 4 ft. 1 in. before the meet, and Margaret Saxton had jumped 4 ft. 3 in. The 80-yard dash was won by Ruth Doty in each of the three heats. Marie Kohn came in second and Isabel Gilbert third. Clarice Oakes came off victor in the basket-ball throw with a wonderful throw of 63 ft. 11 inches. Margaret Saxton came next with 56 ft. 3 inches. A large crowd of parents and friends were present and applauded the victors heartily. Miss Wold deserves much praise for her able coaching and management of the meet, and we all hope that she will repeat it next year. Events Running high jump. 1. Edith Moyer, 3 ft. 9 in. 2.

They have all played hard and done their best toward team work and fast playing, under the coaching of Miss Armi- tage and Miss Darling. And next term they hope to go on and win even greater success, in spite of our losses from the graduation of some of our best players. Oh, dear, those graduates! What shall they do without Edith Morgan, our great little captain? Her enthusiasm and hard playing has done much for the team, and they shall find it hard to part with her. And Vera Hall, their best for- ward, whose presence on a team makes victory certain, will be a great loss. Margaret Saxton, too, though of less experience, will leave a gap in their line up. Helen McFaul and jolly Mar- garet Stauffer will be greatly missed, both for playing and gayety. However, when such players as Clarice Oakes, Edna Luke and Agnes Page remain, all is not wholly lost and they hope to build up as good, if not better, a team from these and the crowd of younger players who have come in this term. 119 120 The Camp-Fire Girls The Camp Fire Girls is a national organization with local groups called Camp Fires. Each group consists of from ten to twenty girls with a leader or guardian. The purpose of the organization may be inferred from the ‘‘Law of the Camp Fire,” which is to “seek beauty, give service, pursue knowledge, be trustworthy, hold on to health, glorify work, and be happy.” After each girl has expressed her desire to follow this “law of the camp fire” she becomes a “woodgatherer,” which is the is the lowest order of the camp. After she has earned a cer- tain number of honor beads, she is qualified to become a “fire-maker,” and filially a “torch-bearer.” A few of the things for which honor beads are given will show the scope of the work of Camp Fire Girls. A girl wins honor beads for attend- ing school without absence for three consecutive months, for attending church regularly, for doing charity work, for being without a cold between October and April, for cooking for one month in the home, for being able to identify and describe twenty wild flowers, for making a fire without fire or matches, for trimming a hat, etc. Thus the influence of the Camp Fire may be felt in all the activities in which a girl can be interested.

The members from the ranks of two prominent classes, the June T2 and the February T3 have been enrolled since the publication of the last Portania. While it is impossible to keep in touch with all of the graduates, we endeavor to know something concerning the interests of those who have affiliated with us in the Alumni organization. Each year, it is found that a larger percentage of the gradu- ating class enters some higher institution of learning, to prepare themselves for a broader field of service. Among those attending the State University are Edna Acheson,Vere Windnagle, Norma Dobie, Lucia Macklin, Aline Noren, Waldo Miller, Elizabeth Lewis, Bert Jerard, Nettie Drew and Helen Werlein.

My flickering lamp gives a smoky light, The rafters creak, as if in fright, And the shadows are dread to see. Outside my cabin, the rain is blown In the wild wind’s driving path, I hear the sobbing fir trees moan, The hoary old hilltop monarchs groan, And the torrents brawl in wrath. On that bleak old hilltop, yonder there, How wild the wind must sweep Through the needled aisles so long and bare And the rain must pelt down coldly where Sweet flowers ought to sleep! But them the rain now beats and kills, And the buds are torn and sad; Oh sweet, sweet flowers! when the wild wind stills, And the curling mists rise up from the hills, Dear wild flowers, won’t you be glad? H. Duncan. 133 V H. 1 . Trouble Alas, my mind is whirling in a daze, My heart is heavy and is sore perplexed! For in this labyrinth of science five, I cannot guess what thing may happen next, And I am sad! For lo, consider all the forces great That in our peaceful world have got let out! First gravity doth pull me to the earth, Then back I yank it with a force as stout, (By Newton’s law.) So many forces in so many things Do pull so many ways, I fear they’ll make Lone atoms out o’ me, or else the air Will smash me flatter than a griddle-cake. (For air hath weight!) Inertia loathes to let me move an inch, Yet how the molecules of me do go! I fear to drink, lest I be rent in twain By some swift, latent force in H20, Unknown to mel Perchance I cause some friction unawares, How many volts of lightning may get loose! Or if—but I am getting mad with fear, And man must sometime die, so what’s the use? Let what is, be!

Unto each log he would narrate a humorous tale till the log did split with laughter. But one sad day he did happen upon a gnarled log that had evidently grown without a saving sense of humor. All his merriest tales were all to no avail. But lo, in the middle of the night was heard a mighty crash. The lowly chopper highed him forth to learn the disturbance and he beheld the gnarled log shattered into splinters. IT WAS AN ENGLISH OAK.
