APPRECIATION E have blazed our trail and now, as we make way for other emigrants who shall tread new and bet- ter paths, we wish to express our gratitude to those who have helped to complete this journal of our travel, the Lens of June, 1931. We acknowledge with sincerest appreciation the assist- ance of Mr. Walter Meacham and all who contributed to the success of the Lens rally assembly, the wise and encouraging counsel of Miss Maclean and Mr. Hedrick, class advisers, who led us onward to new frontiersg the unvarying patience and sound judgment of Mrs. Hansen, literary adviser, and Mr. Trenholme, financial adviser, who pointed out a way through the many pathless plains of our great adventureg and the generous sacrifice of per- sonal interests by loyal members of the class and school without whose aid this issue had not been possible. IN IVIEIVIORIAM MR. LINNEHAN The Great Spirit of the White lllan has taken away the tools from his hand and led him down the sunset trail to the Spirit Land. And We who have known him stand silent, feeling the great loss of one who was steadfast in his convictions, noble in his aspirations, and ever loyal to the school and the students whom he loved to serve.

'IV Q Q PATHFINDERS HUGH BOYD, Principal Our beloved captain Whose nobility of character is the inspiration of all Who travel. L. V. WINDNAGLE, Vire-Prinripal Miss CATHERINE LAMBERSON, Dean A multitude of duties, large and small, has not robbed these energetic leaders of a sure understanding and a ready sympathy for us Who for four years have sought their Wise counsel. GUR PATI-IFI NDERS Before us lay desert wastes, treacherous streams, dis- couraging heights. And here, pointing a way, have stood the pathfinders of our trail, the faculty of Washington High School. No truer comrades, no Wiser counselors, shall we find on any of our future journeys. As we push on toward our various goals, we shall look back with proud and fond recollection upon the loyalty and friend- ship of those who sought to insure our fitness for new frontiers.

As we part from you with thoughts of lingering sadness, We cannot sing a song of cheer or joy or gladnessg For 'tis you alone, dear PVashington, we're leaving, And for you, and for you alone, that we are grieving. So no matter where we wander or we roam, Oh, we will sing your praises, Wfashington. We will ne'er forget our teachers good and true, And we hope their trials and sorrows may be few. Now the time has come at last and we must leave you- And so we sing to dear old Washington. Page 22 THE LENS EIVIIC-RANTS As our wagon train approaches the end of the trail at Washington High School, the pleasures and disap- pointments of the journey pass into the mellow light of by-gone days. On diverging paths we shall travel with high courage to new frontiers and blaze tomorrow's pathway to a new dawn.

This award is made by the joint executive and faculty committee and is based on recognition of points of scholarship, responsibility, personality, courtesy, cooperation, and athletics. Louise Root has distinguished herself all through her school career, during which she has been a recognized leader in various student activities. She served as president of Colonials, secretary of the Student Council, worked four terms on the Washing- tonian Staff, is editor of The Lens, recently was a winner in the city and state oratorical contests, and represented Cregon at the Pacific Coast finals in Los Angeles. She has just been announced as winner of the State Chemistry Essay contest. She has twice been a winner of scholarship pins. Willard Jones has also attained distinction in academic activities, for in addition to being very high in scholarship rank, he is president of the Student Council, president of the Euks, is a member of the Fire Squad, and has served as sergeant-at-arms of the Hi-Y and as secretary of the Order of W. In addition, he ranks high as an athlete, having been on both the football and baseball teams. He served as captain of the basketball team and was chosen for the all-star team for both baseball and basketball. Both Louise Root and Willard Jones are popular with the student body as a whole and their selection for the Student Activity Cup is a cause for much gratification to the graduates, who feel that a new goal has been reached in academic merit. MARJORIE MACMILLAN, Assoriate Editor. Page 44 THE LENS HISTORY OF THE IUNE '31 CLASS E, THE earnest pioneers in search of higher learning, trekked out across the plains toward the medium of the realization of our hopes and joys-Wash- ington High School. Upon arriving, we hesitated before the inscribed doors of this great institution, realizing the seriousness of our undertaking. Cnce inside, We stood gazing up at those mighty seniors, in awe of their superiority. By the time we had become somewhat accustomed to the ways of the school, we were surprised by a Freshie Frolici' given in our honor by the senior class. Thus we learned how kind and friendly those seniors could be. The next four terms soon passed with increasing knowledge for ourselves, and the goal of our dreams just coming into sight. The sixth term brought a change in our lives, by the introduction of social activities in the form of a party given in the gymnasium. We began the seventh term by the organization of our class. The officers for the year were: president, Kenneth Johnson, vice-president, Virginia Harrison, secretary, Gertrude Steele, treasurer, Grant Perry, and Lens editor, Louise Root. During this term, we also gave the graduating class a party to wish them good-luck in the future. Then the eighth and last term started with a Frolic for those little Freshmen who had just begun their quest for knowledge. With the aid of the school and the talented members of our class, we presented a vodvil, notable and well-received by the student-body. Then, still in the light of our success, we produced a class play, a startling, thrilling, mystery story--cleverly unfolded and a genuine success. Shortly after our class play, we were honored by a banquet given by the seventh termers. The termination of our social activities was the Senior Prom, an occasion never to be forgotten. As we neared our graduation, we were reminded of the solemnity of the occasion by the Baccalaureate Sermon. At last, after four long years of diligent study, our hopes were realized by the presentation of our diplomas. Happy in our success but with a rising feeling of sad- ness at leaving our dear old Washington, we go on toward another goal. WVe wish to present our sincere thanks to everyone who has aided us in the four short years ot our stayg we take with us a fighting spirit that is the by-word of Washington, and those never-to-be-forgotten memories. Signed: CATHERINE CAMPBELL GERALDINE GROXVES KENNETH Toon Page 45 JUNE '31 SENIOR VAUDEVILLE One of the fastest-movin vaudevilles ever resented at Washin ton greeted those n g p n gn who attended the Rain Idea of the June '31 class. Acts were limited to the short, snappy and entertaining performances that make shows successful. Don Kelly acted as master of ceremonies and, with his baton, reigned over Archie Parrot's dance band, which furnished the musical background. Talented performers on the program included Harry Shaw, Don Greenwood, Art Rdoore, Ruby Asquith, Tom Kneeland, Ray Roll, lVIacArthur Proebstel, Jeanette and Kathryn Mayer, Nadine Stine, and Jeanette Harrow. Dave Gotthardt, Gertrude Steele, Ellen Turnley, Roberta Bequeath, and Don Kelly, members of the program committee, believing that a reasonably small quantity of high quality talent was what the public wanted, produced a complete and well- rounded vaudeville that lasted little more than an hour.

The setting was arranged by Miss Yager. Lyle Loveridge took charge of the business department with the assistance of Jay Arnoldus and Fred Pugh.

Attesting witnesses to said will: Miss MACLEAN MR. HEDRICK Signed, sealed and published: HELEN KocH PAULINE LEUPOLD DoN GUSTAFSON Page 52 THE LENS CLASS PROP!-IECY FTER the class of June, 1931, left the halls of Washington, Oregon grew and prospered due to the untiring efforts of these ambitious graduates. In the year nineteen hundred and fifty the greatest world's fair in the history of time was sponsored in this wonderful Oregon country under the direction of Fred Pugh. Since all parts of the world would participate in this great event, Ellen Turnley, society editor of the Evening Breeze, Jack Curtis, owner of Sundial Windpipe Co., and Georgia Bunn, president of the Portland Y. W. C. A., decided that it would be an ideal time to have a class reunion. Plans flourished. Wilma Patheal, who had won nation-wide fame through her magnificent hand writing, was appointed to send out invitations to all the classmates. Due to the fact that nineteen years had passed, some of the members had severed all correspondence, so it was necessary to consult Madame Ruby Asquith, the spiritual crystal gazer. She glared into her magic ball and recovered the following who had been lost for some time: Robert Shelley, a famous philanthrophist and psychologist, Scott Waters, owner of a Maxwell-Chrysler agency in the Pacific Ocean Islands, Lillian Stones, head nurse for Dr. Walter Block, Bertha Sendleback, engaged in sell- ing hand-woven grass hats to the cannibals, Harold Lien, manager of an employment agency for aged chemists in New York, Marie Saccomanno, trainer of opera singers and roller canaries in Florida, Rose Ward, dispenser of good cheer to African canni- bals, the Rev. Kenneth Todd of Pendleton, a famous cowboy preacher, Duncan Strang, Superintendent of street cleaning bureau in New Orleans, and Mariel Wilkins, owner of a fashionable modiste shop in Paris. V At last the time of the fair arrived. Persons from every portion of the globe flocked to the Willamette Valley. Even President VVoodard of the United States came with his cabinet consisting of St. Claire Spence, Secretary of State, Grant Perry, Sec- retary of Treasury, Jack Nelson, Secretary of Agriculture, Lewis lVIagin, Post Master General, William Kalibak, Secretary of Navy, Harold Anderson, Secretary of Interior, Muriel McClary, Attorney General, Marjory Little, Secretary of Commerce, and Ward Wilson, Secretary of Labor. This party was accompanied by other notable persons, such as Marie Johnson, the International Educational Asso- ciation chairman, Pauline Leupold, the leading lady of the season's best musical show, Don Kelly, U. S. Ambassador to Great Britain, and John Marshall, the capitalist who had just purchased the great nitrate plant at Muscle Shoals. Before the great blow-out of the evening, all had ample time to ramble over the fair grounds. They had not walked ten minutes before they were assailed for dona- tions by Erances Poor, matron of the Kelleher Endowment Fund Baby Home. There upon a soap box was the great orator Louise Root whose thoughts and com- positions have truly won her the title of the Female Burke. Then who should appear but Jay Arnoldus who was taking orders for wood, coal, and ice for 'the Tingley-Wall Company. Ina Hanquist sat perched upon a high pedestal drawing birdseye-view character sketches. Off to one side was the exclusive Campbell-Freeze dressmaker's shop for pet animals. Since it was some time before the banquet, several stopped at the Buckley-Scott Tea Room, which had won nation-wide fame because of its lovely tea rings made from Marian Coomes' prepared Hour. While dining, it was noticed that Don Carruth, the head janitor, assisted by the floor waxers, Earl Day and Gilbert Hopkins, was cleaning up the crumbs with the famous society leaders, Doris Giles, Virginia Harrison, Lillian Curry and Evelyn Haworth, had dropped. Popcorn was offered for sale from the Glenn Pape wagon, which formerly Page 53 JUNE '31 occupied East l3th and Stark Streets. Some, walking through the dust, stopped in at Irma Belter-Rollin Boles exclusive shoe shining parlor, which had acquired a great reputation in Chief Scott Bufton's police court. Hooray! The time for the banquet arrived. Kenneth Johnson, president of the class, officiated. During his time out, he had won a name for himself as Portlandls best City Pound Master. Each member in turn rose from the table and told of his or her success. Caroline Schink said that she was editing The Teacher's Guide. Bob Sproul was arrayed in his sea captain's uniform because he was leaving im- mediately after the banquet for the Orient. He stated that Florence Udy and Pauline Wadley were to accompany him as representatives of the Vroornan Exporting Co. Willis Calavan and Robert Bolin told of some very amusing experiences while on guard at the institution for the feeble-minded. Some of the old gang, including joe Rogers, Robert Wright, and Nolan Rasnick, were among the inmates. Don Yeager, the Seaside lighthouse tender, bragged that he had recently rescued Miss Elise Eilers, a star of the Civic Opera Co., from the fishing schooner piloted by Ray Dempsey. Edwina Dickinson and Pearl Hollingsworth were exceedingly enthusiastic over the successful missionary campaign that they had just completed in Borneo and Haiti. Of course, Weldon Grebe, editor of the Morning Oregonianf, accompanied by Geraldine Groves, assistant editor, and John Gearhart, advertisingmanager, were present to get all the news that might be revealed by those present. Alice Griffin stated that she was operating an interior decorating and fine arts shop on the corner of Tenth and Burnside. Katherine Goodyear and Claire Fowlie, prima donnas, had recently been honored with contracts from the Metropolitan Opera Company. Har- old Anderson calmly announced that he was an English prof at Stanford. Lyle Loveridge solemnly avowed that he had used his mathematical ability and figured out a solution for the matrimonial problem. Mr. Jubitz and Mr. Davenport made known that they were in the garbage collecting business with the well known slogan, Let Iubitz-Davenport Wagons lVIake Home Life More Agreeablef' The used-to- be Miss Kinder disentangled a number of pairs of youthful arms and legs from her person and declared that she had abandoned all Worldly ambitions to take up matri- mony, which fact was quite evident. Willard Jones said that he had acquired a fortune in the stock raising business after his uncle had presented him with three thoroughbred pigs. Misses Kern and Ley commented upon the branch of the Humane Society which they had formed to prevent husbands from making their wives wash dishes. William Lowry and Margaret Luihn told of the extra spending money they had earned by selling red flannelsn to the natives of Africa. Suddenly some woeful wails pierced the atmosphere, but information followed that it was only Miss Langoe cultivating some new laughs for hyenas. The Honor- able lVIr. Tom Kelly lectured on Self Poise and How to Acquire It. Miss Helen Koch, a famous dietitian stated that she had just edited her latest book on How to Lose Thirty Pounds a Week. Elston Baker, an archaeologist, was almost in tears when he said that he had been searching in vain for Adam's spare rib. Miss Nellie Cross, the world's bathing beauty, raved on about her wonderful figure. In the midst of this affair, Eugene Coffin from the Steel-Roll Telegraph Station brought a stack of telegrams from the members who could not attend. Mr. Yerko- vich sent his deepest regrets, but as he had an important engagement with Prime Minister Chester Tunnell of England to play golf, he would have to remain there with his caddy, Clarence Hanna. We were shocked to hear that the Twentieth Century Air Ship had crashed into the Cady Lookout and that Misses lrma Barnes, Edith Korhonen, Thelma Hart, and Martha MacCollum, the pilot, were seriously injured and were taken to the Huntley lllemorial Hospital and treated by Doctors De Young and Millar, assisted by the expert nurses Dolores lVIanzie and Eileen Page 54 THE LENS Pearce. Alvin Pantle sent word that he was tied up in a case at the Supreme Court under Chief Justice Newlands because he had made slanderous remarks about lVIary- margaret Robinson's million dollar smile. Sherman Wright sent greetings from his bed where he was confined due to the terrible shock of the drop in Oliver Radio stock. lllr. Proebstel stated that due to the awful polar cake famine in Russia, it was necessary for him to stay there to see that everything would turn out for the best. For the fifth time Kneeland and Leonard were arrested for disturbing the elements by speeding in Le Tourneux's new plane. The fearless aerial speed cop lWacllfIillan made the arrest and put them in jail. After the telegrams were read, the guest were entertained by the Superior Six Grchestra composed of Grace Littleton, piano, lVIary Richter, harmonica, lVIarjorie Pettit, comb, lld. Pantle, musical saw, Lena Poleo, saxaphone, and lldartin Jensen, drums. Then Kathryn Dunbar, who had achieved fame and fortune by setting popular nursery rhymes to old Irish lyrics, favored the crowd with some of her masterpieces. In the midst of it all, the beautiful pearl earrings of Lady Snelson dis- appeared. Chief of Police Ralph Warner was bewildered at their whereabouts. De- tectives Stiff, Fisher, and Janz were hot on the trail. Under all this excitement Nliss Olivian Smith, an enthusiastic W. C. T. U. worker, fainted and was conveyed to her home by the Pasto-Ness Taxi with Sibyl lllurphy as chauffeur. , A pie eating contest was held between clown Culverwell and Senator Calef's pet pig to determine who could eat the greatest number of Aunt Gibbon's delicious pies. This contest was sponsored by Bowers and Franz, chefs of the restaurant owned by Edna Stevenson. Hazel Garvin, successor to lVIiss Hays as head of the English De- partment of Washingtori High School, announced that the reason lldr. Gotthardt had not been heard of was because he had been arrested for reckless driving while trying to elope with the million-dollar widow Bequeaith. llliss Wanona Lea com- mented on the asylum for red heads that she had established. All repaired to the great arena which had been constructed by D' Agostino and Colasuonno, Inc. A wonderful exhibition followed. Everyone cheered the parade of pink and white elephants which had been reared by lldr. Ashmun, and Queen Ellen Coleman smiled sweetly as the water carriers, Bamford and Baumgartner, quenched the monsters' throats. Bliss Bellrood, the world's famous snake charmer, exhibited a jumping rope act with her pet, which was named Shirley Bundy,', after the renowned heavy Weight. The celebrated tight-rope artists, Badley, Peters, and Burdette, burst into action, but they were interrupted when the boa eonstrictor broke loose, causing many casualties to both minds and bodies. Among those injured were Dorothy Clark and Dorothy Cummings, the Siamese twins, Vivian Davis, the black- eyed vamp, Bob Cammack, the master of ceremonies, Doris Waggener, Helen Grewe, and Dorothy Heath, lady bareback riders, Lucy Hodgkinson, the fat lady, Lester Hollenback, the world's champion box, Phil Henderson, the famous lion tamer, and lVlabel Heikinen, the rat trainer. When the George Lee Ambulances ar- rived, the drivers turned out to be Arthur Hanna, Donald Gustafson, and Leo Smith. They were accompanied by Virginia Heath, snake bite specialist, and the able nurses, Vivian Langmack and Virginia Lindeman. After everything had quieted down, Harold johnson exhibited his family of monkeys. Helen Johnson's voice seemed to be giving out while trying to sell peanuts to the audience. The hula-hula girls made a name for themselves, especially when they proved to be Janet Johnson, Carmelita Koehler, Ida Kinney, Kathleen Jones, and lllary Johnson. The next to hold the interest of all were the trapeze performers, lVIargaret and Marjory Rogers, Iris Stain, Evelyn Wilson, and Gladys Veit. , After the big show came the side show exhibitions. Eleanore Dammasch, the only woman who never grew old, was demonstrating some of the products upon Page 55 JUNE '31 Margaret Maher, the head librarian of the New York Central Library. Kenneth Wiese and Glenn Pape were demonstrating a new kind of henna hair wash that did wonders to anything it came in contact with. Gladys Moore, the second Mary Pick- ford of Hollywood, acted as the living example. lVIeredith Rhodes, player in Kazoo at the Circle theater, attracted large crowds, among whom were Madame Neese, the famous violinistg Lee Nloyer, editor of the Whizz Bangf' Thomas Marsh, the second Charley Chaplin, Alice Mann, a European countessg Lela lvlartin, the second Galli Curcig Dorris Pickering, owner and operator of Oak Grove Beachg and Jeanette Mayers, President of the African Pygmies' Uplift Society. Since the morning hour was at hand, Harold Carey, the second Will Rogers, extended a cordial invitation to all the classmates to lodge in The Read Hotel. Before retiring Mayor Morris of Portland took time to thank all the members of the class who helped in putting over this gala affair. Most of the credit is due to the untiring efforts of Lyle Veit, the famous criminal lawyer, Mabel Meinert, pastor of the Scappoose Holy Howlersg Lillian Montecarlo, owner of a large grape ranch in California, Betty Merritt, dean of the Salem Reform Schoolg and Ruth Richmond, creator of fashionable haircuts for men. Those persons who did not have an opportunity to attend the fair, enjoyed the privilege of listening to Lawrence Christen, the wor1d's greatest radio announcer, who gave full details of the occasion.

J f L- POW-WOW THE LENS ORGANIZATIONS Trail blazers along the path of the fine arts are constantly setting new horizons to inspire subsequent groups to scale new heights in club activities. This year's or- ganizations have reached lofty summits of achievement and have inspired a greater spirit of cooperation. Each club has a specific objective in the school program and develops the same spirit of loyalty to a purpose, courage in the face of varied circumstances, and coopera- tion in reaching a set goal which inspired the pioneers along the Qregon Trail. In fact, progress is continually creating new worlds to conquer and all these groups banded together for a commendable purpose are modern pioneers in opening new vistas for academic life.

ROBERT GOTTHARDT The Eulcrineon Debating Society has finished the first part of its twenty-sixth year as a high school club in Portland. During the past term many new features stimulated club interest, among these being the decision to award a silver shield to the most outstanding member of each future term. Another significant action was the adoption of an electric sign modelled after the club-pin, which is to be placed on the porch of a member holding a meeting. The Club year was marked by many interesting debates, with the Phreno- Euk Debate attracting much attention. A suc- cessful apple sale was also conducted. The Club regrets losing the following graduating members: Willard Jones, Walter Block, Scott Bufton, Filmore Henderson, hlartin Jensen, Kenneth Johnson, William Kalibak, Lyle Loveridge, Ralph lVIorris, Grant Perry, Fred Pugh, Foster Smith, Frank Springer, and George Yerkovich.

Also, plays and exhibitions have been put on from time to time, this term's play being Cinderella at College. El Reverbero, the Spanish newspaper, is published entirely by students of the department, and is greatly increasing the interest in the Spanish language.

ALONG THE TRAIL THE LENS Homzoms MARJORIE MAClx4ILLAN Once the hills were forest cladg The prairies clothed in sage,- Once a covered wagon seemed A lordly equipage. Towns now terrace mountain sidesg Fields checkerhoard the plains, And modernistic touring cars Out-distance wagon trains. But Spirit of the old Frontier Still lifves to lead the way Of progress that winds ever on From fading yesterday. And like the scouts we blaze a trail Through problems that arise, And cross each Great Difvide that Science Limns on future skies. Humanity's horizons shift With every passing year, And each newbarrier needs the strength Of dauntless pioneer. Page 85 Ju N E '31 WASHINGTON HIGH SCHOOL MARTHA MACCOLLUB1 HE year 1849 glows in our minds with the luster of California's beautiful yel- low gold, but Oregon also was making memorable history that year. ln 1849 some citizens of the little town of Portland organized an association, elected trustees, and built the first public school on the Pacific coast. The building they erected cost S2000 and was a combined school and meeting house. It was twenty-five years before a complete high school course was offered, and two rooms of the North School were used to accommodate the students. ln 1875 the first finishing examinations were held and six pupils graduated. Ten more years passed, and Portland's first high school building was ready to be occupied. When its doors were opened in 1885, 210 students enrolled. The records of the school board for 1905 show this building of sixteen rooms to be over-crowded with an enrollment of 1000 students. lt was then, in 1906, that our own high school was established, the pioneer high school of the east side and the second high school in Portland. lt was known as East Portland High School. Students of the Freshman and Sophomore classes of Portland High School were transferred to various grammar schools on the east and west sides until the new building was completed in 1907. It opened with an enroll- ment of 369 pupils. Until the next fall, when the students were better organized, the activities of the east side school were published in Portland High School's Car- dinal, and its athletes took part in the sports of the west side school. February of the year 1908 marks the first graduation from the new school. Although there were only twelve graduates, eight of them were honor students. The faculty was eager to make the new school comparable in every way with the west side school. The first principal, Mr. Herdman, recommended in 1907 that the school provide a lunchroom and furnish warm food to the students at cost. In 1909 he organized the Associated Students of Washington High Schoolf' Now the stu- dent body operates The Colonial Grille. For the first three years the faculty exer- cised a rather close supervision of the monthly Lens, The control was then assumed by the students, who have had charge of the school publications ever since. Three years ago the monthly Lens was replaced by the weekly Washingtonian. The name Lens is now reserved for class annuals. The first class annual to be published in Washington was called the Portania. lt was edited by the now famous poet, Mary Carolyn Davies. ln 1909 the school board adopted the policy of naming the high schools after famous American statesmen. Portland High School was named Lincoln, and East Portland High School was named Washington. The debating clubs were organized before the school building' was completed. The clubs at Washington now provide opportunity for extra activity in various lines such as dramatics, journalism, and international correspondence. Each club has two advisers chosen from the faculty. Washington's War record was an achievement of which any school might be proud. At the commencement in June, 1917, many of the men were in uniform awaiting orders to detrain for trans-Atlantic ports. Washington led the Portland schools in the Red Cross drives and in the Liberty Bond sales. At the close of the War, when each school was asked to subscribe enough money to take care of one orphan of France, Washington's subscriptions took care of thirty-three orphans. Page 86 THE LENS The service flag, which bore 650 stars, twenty-three gold and many silver, was lost in the fire which destroyed the school building in 1922. All records and trophies were also burned, the gymnasium being the only part of the building left standing. The athletic achievements of the school are Well known. In 1912 Washington held the national interscholastic football championship. Since that time our teams have Won many state and city championships in the various sports. A new athletic field was added to the school grounds in 1930. The continued interest and vigilance of the teachers have maintained for Wash- ington High School a high scholastic standards through the years. In 1930, students of our school Won second place in city and state oratorical contests and first place in the state and national divisions of the chemistry essay contest. In 1931 a Washing- ton student captured first place in the state finals of the oratorical contest. Now, after twenty-five years, Washington High School has an enrollment of over 1800 students. Instead of being one of two Portland high schools, it is one of nine. A friendly spirit of cooperation exists Within this group of schools and offers a field of competition in scholastic Work and in sports, which adds much to the interest of high school life in Portland today.

Page 87 JUNE '31 GRAVES OF THE TRAIL BLAZERS WILLARD JON ES NE Sunday while I was driving with my grandfather up to Mt. Hood, my attention was attracted to the piles of rock and sticks above small mounds of earth that were noticeable here and there along the road. To appease my curios- ity, I asked my grandfather what the mounds designated. My grandfather, an old pioneer who crossed the plains in '43, startled me by the following statement: These mounds are the graves of early pioneers who died on their way west. Being naturally interested in mysterious and unknown graves, I was set upon learning more about them. I insisted that grandfather tell me what he remembered of his early trip westward. This is the story he told me: Though I was only six years old when my mother and father, suddenly caught in an financial depression, started westward along with a colony of about one hundred and fifty people, I still clearly recollect an incident on the tedious trip which occurred many days after starting from St. Louis. The horror and shock of the experience left me in a state of mind that took me months, even years to recover from. I was put to bed by my mother on the eventful night of May 5, 1843, with the feeling that I was far from danger. I judge I had not been asleep very long when I was suddenly startled from my slumber by cries and shouts from the camp. The noise frightened me, and I began to call to my mother. She must have been near, for she came into the wagon where I had been sleeping. Cuddling up close to me, she tried to quell my fears by telling me nothing much was wrong. I knew this was not true, however, for the noises continually increased, being augmented by the reports of many rifles. My mother's composure, however, was quieting my fears, and I began to wish to see what was going on. Suddenly, I heard a voice close at hand, Hurry with that ammunition, the Indians are nearly upon us! This increased my curiosity, because I had never seen any redskinsg and I would have jumped up and run out of the wagon if my mother had not held me. Yet it was not long before I saw my first Indian-I still tremble at the thought. The shouts began to increase in number and volume, but above all the din I began to hear the weirdest and most eerie shrieks imaginable. The noises began to frighten me again, so that I huddled closer to my mother. I knew bythe way she held me that she too was becoming frightened. Suddenly, the flaps at the end of the wagon flew apart, opening upon a sight that froze my blood. Before us stood a tall battle-scarred Indian with such hideous features that I was held fascinated. Half of one cheek had been slashed away by a knife, and the blood dripping down blended gruesomely with his war painted face and chest. In his right hand was a bloody tomahawkg in his left-it chokes me to think of it-was a fresh, blood-drenched scalp hanging by the hair. The Indian stared at us for a moment rather uncomprehendingly, as if undecided which way to go. Then, with an evil gleam in his eye, he made a leap at us with his tomohawk raised ready to strike. Paralyzed with fear, my senses seemed to have left me at that moment. I heard only a loud crack of a rifle before falling into unconsciousness. That was as far as my memory remains clear in regard to the horrible incident. I found later that my mother and I were both saved in the nick of time by the sure aim of my father's gun. As my floundering brain began to return to normal, I was able to find out what had actually happened. A large band of Indians had suddenly Page 88 THE LENS set upon our train with the intention of annihilating it. Though repulsed, they lessened our numbers one half. As to the rest of the trip, my memory is limited to the way the dead were buried. Burying was often a daily occurrence, and the train often stopped to put the dead in their final resting place. Holes were dug about four feet into the ground. In these were placed the dead bodies. The dirt was thrown back into the hole, and then wagons were drawn over and over the mounds so as to keep the Indians from know- ing how great the loss of life had been. As the journey Went on, the burial methods were not so carefully managed. Small mounds were left, on which were placed some rocks and sticks in commemoration of the deceased. By the end of the journey two thirds of the trail blazers were left lying in these graves. At the conclusion of the tale, my grandfather seemed excited and upset, as if those hideous thoughts were racing through his mind. I knew better then what we really owe to our forefathers. . SPRING IN OREGON ROBERT SHELLEY The ways lie sodden in the rain, Rivers run on the window pane, Oregonfs spring has rome again. Quark! Quark!

Page 89 JUNE '31 ON HAVING 0NE'S LAST NAIVIE BEGIN WITH THE TWENTY-THIRD LETTER OF THE ALPHABET DON WOODARD ERE at my desk in Portland, Oregon, I do sit me down on the twenty-ninth day of March in the year of Our Lord, 19313 and, taking my pen in hand, do hereby inscribe this protest to the American doctrine that all men are created equal. When first I entered the broad portals of Washington, I also was a staunch advocate of the equal rights doctrine, but alas, when, after many bitter experiences, I come now to the conclusion of my high school course a dejected and defeated wretch, I realize only too well that fate, and not law or personal taste, has a remarkable effect on the destiny of an individual. The particular curse of which I was the unlucky recipient was the wish-on me of a family name beginning with the twenty-third letter of the English alphabet- W', to be more specific. For the first few days of my high school career, I did not realize my handicap, but when the final seating was at last completed, and I was parked in the darkest, most inaccessible seat in every room, I was deeply impressed by the fact that I was not quite like other normal children. It was true that I was, both mentally and physically, their equal, but for some unknown reason, I was discriminated against because my family name began with a VV instead of an 'IA,', B, or C.'? I pro- tested, but to no avail, so I have remained for eight wretched terms at the end of every class. There with other unfortunate last letters I sit morbidly staring into space and philosophizing on the cruelty of fate. The only thing I can garner from a teacher's erratic remarks, or a fellow-student's recitation is a phrase here and there, which I must painfully piece together to follow the trend of class discussion. At periodic intervals, I experience the peculiar feeling of awakening from a pleasant day-dream with twenty pairs of unfriendly eyes centered on me. Slowly it dawns on my lethargic brain that I am expected to rise and display my ignorance. Trembling, I rise and timidly inquire what it was the teacher wished me to know. Immediately, twenty voices in reinforced cadence repeat the question, and twenty students then sit quietly watching and waiting. I begin, almost surprised at the sound of my own voice, flounder wretchedly, and at last sit down, utterly defeated, and await the inevitable question, Mr, W-, did you study this lesson? My feeble reply in the affirmative is much too weak to make up for my previous recitation, and my statement is unanimously rejected. At length, after an eternity of staring and exchanging of glances by twenty pairs of eyes, the class resumes normal work, and I again drift off into pleasant dreams, to be reawakened a week later and sent through all the horrible process again. After eight terms of weighty deliberation, I have at length arrived at a plan which will eliminate this unconstitutional situation. At the end of each term the in- trinsic value of names will be reversed so that the load of bringing up the rear will be shifted in alternate terms from VV to HA, NI and UNH, remaining constant as standards of value. If this plan is carried out, the first half will see how the other half lives, and classes will be more unifed in their decisions on the merits of a high school teacher. Hoping that my plan will receive due consideration, I do here affix my sign and seal. DoN E. WOODWARD, Attorney Page 90 THE LENS THE FATE OF THE MARIA CELESTE RUBY ASQUITH ANY strange tales may be told of the horrors of the sea, but the most amaz- ing I ever heard was from my sea-loving grandfather, a ship-builder in Australia. He knew the story to be authentic, having conversed with several of the sailors who had discovered the tragedy. lt concerned the little sailing vessel, Maria Celeste which had put out from Australia for China in the year 1881. As he was making it somewhat a pleasure trip, the captain had taken his young wife and little daughter with him. The crew numbered twelve, not many hands for so long a voyage. Months passed, and no word was heard from the ship. She had never reached her destination, and friends and relatives of the missing crew decided that she had gone down in a storm. A year after the NIaria Celeste had set sail, a tramp steamer on its way from Japan to England, saw in the distance a dainty sailingship, full-rigged fore and aft and clipping along at a good rate. The mate discovered that the name on her side was that of the missing Maria Celestefl and so he immediately ordered the helmsman to steer toward her. Receiving no reply to their signals, they drew up alongside and clambered aboard to investigate. There was not a living soul on the ship. Everything was in as perfect order as eight months of drifting aimlessly about would allow. In Captain Clarke's cabin, the table was set for breakfast, the un- touched remnants of some decayed bacon and eggs being left there. The log-book was open on the desk, and from this source the details of what had happened up to the time of the tragedy was determined. The only definite clew to the fate of the crew lay in the remains of a small forward bridge built above the original bridge, which was completely shattered and torn loose. From this bit of wreckage a hazy explanation of the disaster was decided upon. During the voyage the little child had become quite a favorite with the crew, and for her amusement, one of the sailors had built the extra, wee little bridge. By sitting upon it, the girl could watch the sailors swim and could even fish in calm weather. One warm day, just before breakfast as the bacon and eggs indicated, the whole crew, including the captain, went overboard for a swim, leaving the helmsman aboard to steer, and the cook to throw them a line when they were ready to come up. It was impossible to get up the slippery side of the ship without such a line, so it was quite necessary to leave someone aboard. The vessel was making good progress, and the sailors swam around her, keeping as close as possible to the sides. Meanwhile the captain's daughter was watching them from her little bridge and laughing at their attempts to amuse her. As she leaned over to watch something in the water, she lost her balance and fell headlong, screaming in terror. Her mother and the two men left aboard rushed as fast as they could to the bridge from which she had fallen to see if one of the swimmers had saved her. Their combined weight was too much for the flimsy structure, and it splintered to bits, plunging the three watchers into the water. With no one left aboard to throw out a line, they all were left helplessly floundering in the sea. Their efforts to find hand-holds on the slippery sides were futile, and the ship soon drifted on, leaving them to their awful fate. With all the perils of the sea to which the ship might have succumbed, it is bitter, indeed, to think that human life had to be lost in such a dreadful manner. We of the twentieth century are awakened to a lively realization of the dangers which threatened seamen when frail little sailing-ships like that ill-fated Maria Celeste set out bravely for new worlds. Page 91 JUNE '31 CONTEMPLATION OF BEAUTY OLIVIAN SMITH O FIND new or unsuspected beauty in places passed every day gives a thrill of discovery quite different from any other. On my way to the street car line are two blocks which have not yet been used as building sitesg so the maple and fir trees which grow there have been allowed to stand. It took a year for me to dis- cover their beauty. One square is a fit setting as the forest in A Midsummer Nightls Dreamf' with the soft, dim light, the tall fir trees and spreading branches of maple, and the green earth starred with tiny, pink-veined flowers. The other square has -a path cutting diagonally across it. On either side grow remarkably tall, lacy carrot ferns. There are large bushes of syringas with their waxy white, incredibly sweet blossoms, and vine maple. One day in the very early spring before the leaves had come out, I was struck by the beauty of this place. It was late on a dark, rainy afternoong the trCCS stood tall, black and gaunt against the sky with only the faintest hint of green in the swelling buds, and with the brilliant green carpet of grass at their feet. The slate-grey path wound unevenly across the square, broken by an oc- casional rain puddle. Through the veil of rain it looked like some exquisite water color painted by a master hand in grey, and green and black. There is another place which I have seen with new eyes. One day, in early autumn, I was walking along a cliff overlooking a broad, flat low-land extending to the river, when I beheld wth surprised and delighted eyes the soft purples shading from deep wine to heather, the lavenders, tans, and browns of the marsh bushes with which the low-land was covered. From the height, the bushes were blended into a harmonious, glowing mass which billowed like the sea in the intermittent wind. It remained for me to make still another discovery of beauty. On top of one of the high, wooded hills surrounding the city is a group of newly-erected public build- ings in limestone and marble. From across the river I once noticed with pleasure how like ancient Greek temples they appeared, with corniced roofs and parts of the decorative columns showing above the tree tops. Encouraged by these examples, I am all the time finding something of beauty in hitherto unnoticed or casually observed scenes, and with each discovery comes a deeper feeling of delight.

BASKETBALL SU M IVIARY FTER a hectic season of unsatisfactory losses and brilliant wins, the Colonials emerged from the 1931 hoop race in sixth place. The hlinutemen started the gruelling two-times-a-Week, fourteen-game schedule in a blaze of glory by beating out Franklin and Lincoln in two hotly contested first-Week encounters, but after this promising start, the boys lost their scoring eye and began to drop close games with surprising regularity. After several reverses, the Washingtonians again broke into the Win column by defeating Roosevelt 18-17. Following the close Roosevelt fray, the Colonials continued their losing streak until but one Week before the close of the season. At this juncture, a rejuvenated Washington quintet again humiliated Roosevelt, this time by an overwhelming score, and during the next Week, they continued to cop close tangles from Grant and Com- merce and boost their win tallies to six. Throughout the season, the five men used the most were Rittenour and Kidd, forwards, Yerkovitch and Garber, guardsg and lanky Willie Jones at center. Near the end of the schedule, Heller, Lienard, Callahan, and several other substitutes were injected in a frantic attempt by Coach Wolf to put Washington consistently on the long end of the score. This attempt, after much experiment, was accomplished. Page 95 -UNE '31 WASHINGTON 23, 21 -BENSON 25, 27 Benson, runner-up in the 1931 race, got a big scare in the first game against Wash- ington, and was barely able to scrape a two-point Win from the fire after thirty-two minutes of thrilling basketball. Woldt starred for Benson with 9 counters to his creditg Jones led the Washington scoring with 10. In the second meeting of the Benson and Colonial outfits, it was just a sad case of too much Cliff Maclean. The fast-breaking Indian ran rampant over the Colonia1's home court to score 17 points -over half of the Mechanics' totaly while the Colonials' high scorer, Kidd, got only nine counters. In the second fray, Washington did not once push to Within four points of the masterly Tech quintet. WASHINGTON 22, 23-COMMERCE 32, 16 In their first Washingtonian encounter, evidently an inconsiderate Commerce squad ignored their rivals' Well-known jinx by a large margin, 32-22. K'Red Illiller, the Pen-Pushers' big threat, gallopedgaily over the court to eclipse Macleanls pre- vious 17-point record by scoring 18 counters in a single contest. Garber, Kidd, and Heniges at the guard post were unable to stem the husky Commercites' spree. How- ever, in the second tangle with the Stenogs, the Washington jinx Was there in full, force and the Colonials took a fast game 23-16. Jones and Rittenour were responsible for the greater part of the Washington scores, but the entire team showed well a.nd handled the ball nicely. Page 96 'HE LENS WASHINGTON 17, 21- FRANKLIN 12, 24 Washington and Franklin divided honors in their two prep-season games, the Colonials taking the early contest 17-12, with the Franklinites copping the latter by the close score of 24-21. Franklin entered the first encounter a heavy favorite, but the close checking of the Colonial guards held the visitors to 12 counters, while the forwards garnered 17 for the home boys. Killits won the second game in the last few minutes of play by sinking two field goals with the score tied at 20-all. Rittenour and Yerkovich starred in the first fray, with Jones as the shining light of the second fracas. , 1 I ,Q , WASHINGTON 17, 45-ROOSEVELT 16, 13 It took Wee Willie Jones, Washington's stellar center, some extended effort to relieve the mind of the handful of Washington fans who had gathered to see the first Roosevelt game. A field goal in the last minutes of play tied the count, and a foul shot a few seconds after to give Washington the precious one-point margin of victory were the outstanding features of the game. Kidd, however, not Jones, was the high point man of the contest with eight counters to his credit. The second game was little more than a track meet, with the entire team sharing in the scoring honors. At first it looked as if the Teddies would not score, but they finally eked out 13 points during the time that the Colonial regulars were tripping over the court and scoring almost at will for a 45-point score. ' Page 97 JUNE '31 On: Pazitle. Coznfh lVolf. The Other Panllc WASHINGTON 13, 26 - GRANT 24, 25 The Colonials were definitely put out of the running by a free-scoring Grant quintet in the second week of play. IVIcChesney, the General scoring ace, looped them in from all angles, While his close-checking team-mates held the Colonials to 13 counters. Grant led all the way, and was not at any time even threatened by the best efforts of the Minutemen. In their second start against Grant, the Colonials, after finding themselves in the Roosevelt game, set out to Wing and in one of the most exciting tangles of the season, eked out a remarkable one-point victory. WASHINGTON 18, 5-JEFFERSON 22, 20 The beginning of the Colonial slump came when the championship Jefferson outfit defeated the Minutemen 22-18. The Colonials time and again Worked the ball into enemy territory in the first game, but as Willie Jones said, They just wouldnlt go inf, The second Jefferson melee marked the bottom of the YVashington slump when the Colonials set some kind of a record by Scoring only five tallies in over a half-hour of uninteresting basketball. Again the failure following the effort to shoot even close cripples led to the much-discussed defeat. WASHINGTON 30, 18-LINCOLN 13, 27 Again Washington won and lost in the two games against the Lincoln five. Wash- ington was just as superior in the first game as inferior in the second. In the initial encounter, the Colonial sharpshooters led throughout by a comfortable margin, and won the game easily 30-13. But in the second fray the tables were turned and it was the Railsplitters who took charge of things. In the latter mix-up, tefmwork was seri- ously lacking, but the failure to sink the oval from any positfon was the main cause of the scorching defeat.

' ' T c i l s . c c f c I T T C C C C K ' 1 JUNE '31 In the outfield Jones was undoubtedly the best, and the lanky one playing center- field certainly covered his territory like a veteran. A weak ankle caused him much pain during the season but did not seem to materially affect either his stellar fielding or. batting performance. Heniges, relief pitcher, also served much time in the outfield, and turned in very consistent fielding. Ogilvie, a two-year letterman, was the third member of the outfield, and got plenty of practice chasing sizzling grounders from the bats of slow swinging right handers. Probably the smallest man who saw active service in the interscholastic league was Frosh Gribble, on the Colonial squad as catcher. He caught the greater part of one game and turned in a very creditable performance in substituting for Rasnick. The past season was the most disastrous season Washington has suffered since long before Jenne's regime, but the boys just couldn't seem to play consistently enough to cop any of the close games, including the final twelve-inning Grant thriller which the Generals finally won 10 to 6 with a four-run rally in the twelfth. Page 100 THE LENS WASHINGTON TRACK SEASON WONDERFULLY SUCCESSFUL The Colonial track squad, under the able coaching of Vere Windnagle, certainly strutted their stuff this season and, next to Grant, undoubtedly had one of the strongest aggregations of the state. Wins in a triangular and a quadrangular meet, seconds in the Vancouver relays, the state relays at Eugene, a Pacific meet, the city relays and the city meet, and a third in the State Track Carnival at Corvallis were the extent of the Colonial laurels. The Washington team included one record holder in Clyde Walker, shot-put candidate and holder of several records with phenomenal heaves up to 49 feet. The Minutemen were particularly weak in sprints but could hold their own with the best' in both the field and distance events. Carey, a pole-Vaulter of no mean ability, is another lower term find who will undoubtedly strengthen the team during the next three years. Gotthardt, the Pantles, Snell, Zancolli, and Cauthers were the chief relay material, together with Culverwell, who showed well for Washington in the relay meets in which the Colonials got their share of firsts. Page 101 JUNE '31 Triangular Meet In the first meet of the season the Colonials took first with a total of 77.9 points for the seniors and 77.5 for the juniors. Mackay won the javelin with a heave of 168 feet, Clausen placed in the discusg Newlands and Janz placed in the high sticks with A. Pantle second in the lows and first in the 100 and 220. Gotthardt and Bufton easily took the mile and the half respectively. Among the juniors, Collins, Freer, Nakadate, Lewis, and Holloway showed well and were responsible for a large part of the final total. Quadrangular Meet In the fifth annual quadrangular meet the Colonials again took an easy first with the same performers placing almost the same as in the earlier triangular meet. Walker again won the shot with a heave of 44 feet 3M inches. Snell and Culverwell placed one and two in the 440, with Gotthardt winning both the mile and 880-yard run easily. Vancouver Relays In the Vancouver relays the Colonials took second with ten points, Grant winning the meet with twenty-two. A second in the medleys, both sprint and distance, a third in the 440 relay, and two fourth were the extent of the Colonials' places. Pacific Meet Again at Forest Grove, the Colonials were doped for a first but the Franklin aggregation took the meet on the result of the final event, the mile relay, and nosed out the Colonials for first place. Walker was the hero of the meet and it was here that he set his phenomenal mark of 49 feet in the shot for a new record. Northwest junior Meet In the Northwest Junior Nleet Collins won the cup with first in the javelin, half- mile, and broad jump. The Colonials took the meet easily with 46M points. Carey, Zancolli, Freer, and Holloway were other outstanding performers who were chiefly responsible for the Colonials' victory. Page 102 THE LENS State Relays at Eugene Taking time out from local meets, the Colonials journeyed to Eugene and took a remarkable second in the Relay Carnival held at Hayward Field on Saturday, April 25. Grant, with wins in the four relay events and the special hundred-yard dash, hung up one of the two new records and won the meet handily. Grant's sprint medley team 'consisting of Cannady, Russell, Dowling, and VVhite, won that event in 1:37.8, breaking the old record set by Grant in 1930 by 2 1,f5 secondsf A great Colonial two-mile team composed of Collins, Zancolli, Bufton and Gott- hardt stepped off the four half-miles in 8:32.43 about two seconds slower than the team last year which hung up a new record in the city relays. Bufton, Gotthardt, Dempsey, and lVIcDowell composed last year's team which ran the same event in 8:30. The mile team, consisting of Cauthers, A. Pantle, Culverwell, and Snell won their event from a fast field in 3:38. The outstanding performer of the meet was Clyde Walker who set a new record of 47 feet 8M inches in the shot and won that event thumbs down. State Meet at Corvallis At Corvallis, the liinutemen again showed well by placing third in the state meet. Grant was first with 27, La Grande second with 232, and the Colonials third with ZOM. Washington got the relay when a half-mile team composed of A. Pantle, Cauthers, M. Pantle, and Snell led the pack to the finish to the clip of l:33.9. Gotthardt took a third in the mile, running the event in the fastest time of his career yet trailing the leader by several yards. Walker of Ye Olde Colonial Institution took the shot with the trifiing throw of 46 feet Z inch. A. Pantle, the student body prexy, took third in the 220-yard low sticks, while Carey and Nlackay with a fifth and second completed the total.

The Generals with a total of 22 points took first, with the Colonials in the second place with 14 points. One tough break in the mile relay widened the rift but did not affect the outcome. In the first event of the day the Colonials' husky field men won an event and broke a record of six years' standing when they heaved the shot a combined distance of 163 feet IOM inches. The old record of ISSM feet was set by Lincoln in 1925s Walker had the longest toss with over 43 feet, the others, including Craw, Mackay, and Rife, all got around forty feet for the grand record-breaking total. In the mile relay the Washington team, Cauthers, A. Pantle, Culverwell, and Snell, doped first on past performance, suffered a tough break in passing the baton from Culverwell to Snell with the result that the Colonials finished second. Even after dropping and going back after the baton Snell finished a strong second, and it would certainly have been a sweet finish had not the unfortunate accident occurred. Washington's only first beside the shot-put was in the medley relay composed of Bufton, Snell, Freer, and Go-tthardt. All ran a good race and the Colonials with Gotthardt, running the half, finished a good first. A fourth in the 440 was the only other score.

The Generals amassed a total of 46 points while the Colonials were garnering 262 for second place. Supremacy in the sprints was the cause for the overwhelming Grant victory. Walker, champion record smasher, had no close competition and failed to establish any new records in his after- noon Work-out. Other Colonials who placed in their events were A. Pantle and lVI. Pantle in low hurdles, Newland in high jump, Carey in pole vault, Mackay with a Hrst in the javelin, Button, Craw, Clau- sen, and the Colonial relay team com- posed of the Panties, Cauthers and Hoskins. Page 105 JUNE '31 GIRLS' TENNIS TEAIVI FINISHES IN SECOND PLACE Winning a total of three matches out of five the girls' tennis team took second in the Hnal standings. The team is composed of the following: Kay lVIayers CU, Jean Nlayers CZD, Edith Downs C3j, and Rosemae Schulz 141. Kay Mayers and Jean Nlayers played the singles matches, while Edith Downs and Rosemae Schulz teamed up in the doubles. The team defeated Commerce, Lincoln and Franklin, but lost to Grant and Jef- ferson. The past season has been one of the most successful for girls during the past few years, with plenty of promising material coming up for next year's team. BOYS' TENNIS TEAIVI TIES FOR CHAMPIONSHIP The boys' four-man tennis team, composed of Rhine, Fisher, Captain Strang, and Pugh, climaxed a Very successful season with a win o-ver the Grant lads. The boys had previously beaten Commerce, Benson, Lincoln, Franklin, and lost to Jefferson in a close tilt, two matches to one. Bob Rhine, playing first man, Won the Inter- scholastic Singles championship with a brilliant string of wins. Fisher, Strang and Pugh alternated at second man, and the doubles team was composed of the remaining two. The team, all of whom played last year, have shown particularly well and deserved recognition. A11 the boys have played well and shown good sportsmanship. Almost the entire team will graduate this year and the tennis stars will certainly be weakened from the loss of these regulars when the team reorganizes next year. Page 106 THE -ENS GOLF TEAM LOSES IMPORTANT MATCHES The Washington High boys' golf team, composed of the following: Jake deYoung, Bob Hunt, Mac Stoddard, and Bill Briody, hit hard sledding and didn't come out so brilliantly in the final standings. At the date of publication the boys have played five matches and lost four. The only victory came over Roosevelt, which the home boys squelched H16 to M for an easy victory. Jake deYoung, playing No. 1 man during the early part of the season, was able to capture only three and one-half points during the season's play so far. Bob Hunt, second ranking player, has garnered a total of six points, Nlac Stoddard, third man, a sum of ten, the largest of any one on the team, While Bill Briody, fourth man, has amassed a total of four and one-half counters. The team, greatly weakened by the loss of Robert Wright, No. 1 player and a consistent Winner last year, has put up some good battles but could not seem to come through in the pinches often enough to Win. The scores against the other four teams, barring Roosevelt, were: Benson, 8M to Washington's ISM, Commerce 8, Washing- ton 4g Lincoln nine, Washington 35 and Grant 11, with Colonials with but a single tally.

A few months later he graduated-We placed 'him in a, position-today he is one of the chief executives of a great corporation. There are many others, bankers, business executives, professional men, highly paid accountants, who are outstanding suc- cesses hecause they had ability-and this great University of Business gave them the other two VITAL keys to success: right training and the OPPORTUNITY. We can help you just as we have helped thousands during the last 28 years and are helping hundreds every year. Last year, for example-MORE THAN 1000 POSITIONS WERE OPEN for our grad- uates. This year, as usual, we have had far more calls for help than we could till. There are reasons why Behnke-Walker graduates are in greater demand-why they win outstanding successes-why the demand for them is greater than the supply.
