'Q A A Thirty-on Class History Une of the first things I remember hearing after our class entered high school was a talk given by Mr. XVallaee in which he told of tl1e growth of democracy in high school circles and the need of more democracy in every high school activity. This idea that we could be more democratic in school as well as in politics appealed to me and therefore, it has been interesting to watch the development of this idea. In local and national government, we are apt to judge a ruler by his efiforts to promote democracy-just so it is in high school government-a class is a success or a failure in so far as they are able to make the school an institution for the studenis, of the students, and governed by the students. XYhat has the class of l-9-l-9 done then for W'est High in promoting this spirit? When our class, one hundred and fifty-two strong, took its official plunge into the turbulent waters of high school life on September 6th, 1915, we were not the greenest, gawkiest Freshmen as most classes have been, but a very 1'11u'cjn'11de11f, dignified bunch, as is shown by the fact that we didn't sit right in front of the door when we came into the assembly, but just where we pleased. A few days after our arrival we field our first election of ofiieers. Un account of the size of the class, it was necessary to divide it into two divisions-one which had been in high school since January and the other com- posed of those who had just entered. The older members elected Rolanl McGuire, president: Gertrude Holmes, vice presidentg and blames McAlvin. secretary and treasurer. The younger division chose Loyd Shepperd to guide the Ship of State, Dorothy hlenks, vice president, and Elizabeth Forrester, see- ietary and treasurer. t -Xt this election, each student voted for whom he wanted as class officials and the two receiving the highest number of votes were nominated. A few days later, the class met and chose between the two nominees. This marked our initial step in having a government of the students and by the students and abolished the possibility of a certain clique obtaining all the offices. Also at this time a new ofiicial body was organized, known as the students' council-eompiused of two people from each class. The purpose of this organ- ization was to allow the students a voice in all matters concerning the school. Almost the first ruling made by this body was that the Freshmen should not have any parties, but that the three upper classes should entertain them at what would be called the Annual Freshman Mixer. Therefore. according to the new order, the three upper classes gave us the first and best Freshman Mixer that has ever been held at lYest lligh. At this party, janet Townsley won the l reshman beauty prize. Throughout the evening, the democratic spirit pre- vailed. Seniors mingled with Freshmen, and at the close of the evening every member of the class of lfllfl felt that he was as much of XYest lligh as were the members of the class of 1916. During the remainder of the year we were found taking part in every activity. Vick Thomas and Xulix Schultz proved to be two of the best men on the fuotlritll team. ln inter-class basketball, our team catriel off the thampionship without a single defeat. XYe were not as successful in debate and declamation, but we had our representatives in the tryouts. .Xt the commence- ment exercises given at the close of the year. it was found that still another organization the l'hilomel Chiirns-accepted two of our class among its mem- bers. The girls spent the following summer in lengthening their dresses while the bots earned enough money to buy their first long trousers, except Russell Sli-vi-ns, who decided to be econcmical and wait a year. The class returned in Thirty-two September with renewed vigor, but rather depleted in numbers. I-lowever. dur- ing the year, Alvina Sauer, Chester Owen, Thaddeus Miller, Ijerenice Iuel and Edith Neal decided West High was the school for them, so took up their studies with our class. Herbert Matthews as president, Clyde Miller as vice president, and Dillon Thomas were entrusted with the management of class politics. This year we had the pleasure of entertaining the newly arrived infants-certainly a very unruly bunch. ,Our first class party, in the form of a bob party, was enjoved by the upper classmen and the Sophomores paid the bill. The next party was held in the spring-a picnic at Byrnes Park. This proved to be the most successful gathering the class ever had. In athletics, Pick Thomas was captain elect for the next year. Outside our increased representation in this sport and other activities of the school, the year seemed uneventful up until the oth of April, 1917. XNhen war was declared on that date, four of number, namely, Halsey lsleatty, Harold Ferguson, Roland McGuire and Dillon Thomas, felt it their duty and privilege to help f'Make the world safe for democracy. VVe were just recovering from the effects of our loss when the sun set on the second year of our high life. In three months we were again returned but again depleted in number for eight members had decided our company was not fast enough so joined the class of 1918. Realizing the difficulties of this year's work and the responsibility of upper classmen, we met the first week and with much deliberation elected as President, Leslie VVilharmg as vice president, Ruth Millerg as secretary. Elizabeth Forresterg and Ruth Stevens as treasurer. The year was started with Hying colors when the juniors surprised their fellow students with a beautiful ffoat in the Home-coming Parade showing for the first time their colors, thc American lileauty and Grey which from then on have been envied by all the other classes. Qui' class started out with lots of pep this year but were soon slowed down on account of the existing war conditions. XYhen we planned to have a party, we had to cut down on the amount of refreshments: when this was remedied, we were not allowed to have it on account of the coal shortage. XYQ waited so long that we were able to have only one party during the year. The big event of the year came on February fifteenth when the Junior play Advertise was given. In this, Elizabeth Forrester a11d Herbert Matthews with an all star cast showed the ability of our class in dramatic work. That the democratic spirit had not died out was shown in the organization of the IIericane club upon the suggestion of one of our members. Clara Belle VVilson. Thru this organization, the girls have learned how to carry on a busi- ness meeting according to Roberts' Rules of Order and how to speak correctly before an audience. Again the call to arms was felt when three more boys joined the colors. Not only were these boys, Herbert Matthews, james McAlvin, and Milton XVarner. missed by the class, but the whole school felt the loss of their active participation in school activities. As the end of the school year came in sight, it seemel almost as if the iuniors would be unable to hold the annual Junior-Senior llanquet which had always been the leading social function of the year. The necessity for buying Liberty Bonds and Thrift Stamps, the conservation of food were brought to our notice. Wfe were able to refute these arguments with the facts that there was 25100 in the Treasury and that simplicity was to be the keynote of the affair. Therefore in accordance with our plans, the class of '19 entertained the graduating class and faculty on May 24th, 1918, at one of the 'grandest receptions ever given by the students of Wlest High. This closed our third year. . It was not until September 3rd, 1919, that we realized that we were Seniors Thirty-three A and the supposed leaders of the school. VVith the help of seven new members, Yerne Allen, lYilbur Amspoker, Alfred Lyon, Helen Mclntosh, Leland Merrill, .Xlax Noah and Yirginia XYilson, the class elected Cecil Gorman, Presidentg Fritz Leimer, Yice l'resident3 Pearl lrlartleip, Secretary, and Chester Owen, Treasurer. About the first step in our last year's work was the re-organization of the literary societies. Linder the new system, each class fortned a literary society and members of the class composed the program cotnmittee. VVhen this work is done by the classes, every student has more opportunities to show his ability. At first, it seemed as if our Senior year would be an utter failure on account of the war and the enforced vacation on account of the influenza. However, November llth brought peace to our minds, as well as to the world. At the same time the changes were being made in the literary work, Leland Merrill, Yerne Allen, Chester Owen, Yerne Antone and Cecil Gorman were repre- senting us on the football field. Wlhen the basketball season opened, Yerne Allen and l'aul Farr gave their time to that sport. Charles Brown, Harold Miller, Chester Owen, Verne Allen and Graham Hay helped us win second in the home track meet. One party was held during the year, but this one, like all the rest, was a failure. For some reason or other, the members lacked a class spirit and never would turn out lOO per cent to such an affair. XYhen we are busy talking of athletics and parties we often forget to mention those who really have received something worth while out of the high school life. ln the lirst place, the members of this class have worked earnestly ..nd faithfully to put out a good Spectator this year, altho the conditions at the beginning of the year were gloomy. joseph Lipkin, Yerne -lay and Caroline Munn have shown their ability on the debating teams, while Dorothy .lenks won first place in the humorous division of the home declamatory contest. The thing that is very seldom mentioned in a history of a class, but which I think is one of the most important things in our high school career is the honor roll for the four years' work. This year in our class of seventy students, sixteen, or almost twenty-three per cent. were able to make an average of ninety per cent or above for their work in this school with Caroline Munn receiving the maximum average of ninety-six per cent. Classmates, our high school days are over. lf you have worked hard and faithfully to get every thing out of this opportunity but have not been on the honor roll, you have lost nothing, but if you have neglected your duty, you must forge past and decide that you shall win from now on. liriends, now that you have seen, or rather heard, what we have been doing the last four years, l wonder what you think of the class l-9-l-9. Has it promoted the spirit of democracy? Yes, it has to some degree, but it has been the individuals who have encouraged this idea and not the class. .Yo class can help this spirit satisfactorily until the class itself is a democracy. This is just what our class has not been. lt has been a class of individuals lYe have had good class otticersg our members have been the officials of every organizationg our classmates have been on the athletic teamsg the majority of the members of the l'hilomel Chorus and illee Clubs are from cur class: we have been repre- rented in debate and declamatory workg our members were on the Spectator stall' and honor roll, but none of these called forth united cooperation of the class. We have never won a Spectator contest, with one exception, we have never won a ticket contest or any other contest since we have been in the high --chool. The individuals have lacked cooperation, willingness. the spirit of unity and good fellowship. XYe sincerely hope that all succeeding classes will prolit from experience and be behind every movement their classes undertake. -Rtrrn ll Srlfvi-Zxs.

They went together for several vears, and then one night Paul eloped with Bernice juel. I guess Thelma nearly' went mad. She left home and no one heard of her for quite a while and linally the last I heard of her she was sailing for lndia as a missionary. Norma: Poor Thelma! It's very sad, but she ought not to have given up so easily. I'm sure if she had applied at Ruth Steven's matrimonial agency, she could have found her a husband. Ruth: Oh, I don't doubt it.

Ruth: I can't imagine: but they seem to be taking their fate together, what ever it is. Dorothy: They were singing in a cabaret--a cabaret, mind you. Norma: Uh, those poor girls. How some of them have been misled. Ruth: Talk of being misled, I have still a sadder case. The other day when I advertised for a maid who do you suppose applied? Norma: XVho? Ruth: It was no other than Alvina Sauer. The poor girl. You know she married that villain of a Harry Orrick. He treated her so brutally that she ran away. and here she was applying for a position as maid. Norma: The dear girl. Send her down and I'll make her a partner in the business. By the way, where are the Silent Six? Ruth: NVell, you know Mable is still in VVaterloo. She and Leslie are run- ning the Electric Park. Dorothy: I forgot to tell you that Leslie was running the merry-go-round and Mable was taking tickets to the roller coaster. Norma: NVhere is Pearl? Ruth: Oh, Pearl's playing Little Eva in an Uncle Tom's Cabin Co. Norma: 'VVelI, bless her heart, Little Eva! Dorothy: Then there's Mildred Court. Ruth: Yes, Mildred is the happiest of all.

Why my real name is Mrs. XYilbur .Xmspokcit tfurtainft 'l'lnrty-eiglxt Class Statistics Wlleii the one hundred and fifty Freshmen of the Class of '19 entered the portals of VVest Irligh, the building became so crowded that the Board of Educa- tion began to discuss very warmly the construction of a new high school. However, this discussion soon cooled down when it was learned that only ninety of the class returned the following year and seventy in 1917. At present we have two more, but among this number are new faces entered this year from other schools. How all these disappeared is due to three, or probably four, reasons: First, when the United States government sent the Iowa Militia to the Mexican border, it was discovered that many students of our class were among them. Then, when we entered the VVorld NVar, it is not necessary to state the loss which our class suffered. Second. the demand for labor and the many opportunities thus presented to the boys and girls at this timetook many of them from school. Third, six people of our class, Karl Lickington, Florence Gutman, Bessie Holden, Clyde Miller, Ilelle Hanna and Cleo Shepard decided that married life is more desirable than to translate the love stories of Virgil or other authors. As a fourth reason we may say that many students either working hard. got ahead of ns, or by lying down, fell back. At present we are a class of seventy-two students. twenty-nine boys and forty-three girls. I have taken all these in to the land of Neverwastopia, where all the girls are fused into one ideal woman. while the boys become om' rm! 111011. I now introduce these two characters as Mr. and Mrs. Senior. HATS OFF TO THE MRS.. for she is fair and good. A young woman of 740 years is she, but already kissed by her hubby of only 520 years. Her head touches the clouds. being 224 feet, 11 inches tall. With verv graceful feet which need a 218-size shoe. she supports her beautiful figure of 2 tons, 1,046 pounds VVhen she went to VVest 'High in 1919 two rows of seats were considered a suf- ficient support. She would come back, if she would be allowed to take Fnglish under Miss Roan. mathematics under Miss Green, history with Miss Plaswell and French from Miss McDermet. Now, in the land of Neverwastopia. things are a little reverse. Take. for instance, Mr. Senior. Wle iind that he is much younger than his wife. He has only seen 520 summers. A strenouos exercise of taking care of his wife is probably the cause for 'his light weight, which is but 4,075 pounds. Being 164 feet, two inches high, he does not unite reach to her shoulders. As a return for his work the Mrs. makes all his clothes. a suit size 968-about 37 in the average of our class-shirts and collars size 422, hat size 216242. VVith about two cow hides he is able to make one shoe for himself the size of which is 235M, a tritie larger than his sweet cuckoo. Twenty-nine seats were needed to support him when he attended school. Although he thinks school to be a terrible place, he would like it if he were permitted to always take mathematics, English. history and physics under the supervision of Miss Green, Miss Roan, Mr. Wfallace and Mr. Jensen. Both Mr. and Mrs. Senior are verv patriotic. In the same period that the former subscribed 932.960 of bonds and thrift stamps. the latter subscribed 32485. making a total of 35,4-15. Coming back to the class in VVaterloo, I won't tell you who the prettiest girl is. or the most typical fellow. That is not necessary as statistics. I would steak of our ambitions. Eighteen of our nmnber intend to go into the business world ranging from stenographers to the president of a great firm. Three are to study medicine. one law. five teaching. Engineering appeals to thirteen. Four are ambitious for a musical career, the same number for physical culture instructors. Thirty-nine One is to take 11p architecture, another art.

Finally three young ladies decided to study for the benefit of those three who shall be sentenced for life, I12l11lClj'. Home Economics. To date we have the following possessions in the class: Many bells, such as a Clarabelle, a Mable and a Campbellg a Crown. a small load of Hay, a Jay, a Court for people who disturb the peace, Scales, a Mclntosh, a Lyon, a Pearl and 21 Hart that leaps. .X -Ienks is i11 our midst, b11t proved rather lucky. a Sauer, Alvina who happens, i11 this case to be very sweet.

Forty-three Valeciictory The American-Made Man By CAROLINE MUNN The American is an ll11l1Sll2ll llllclll. The people of every nation have marked traits, b11t we believe the American citizen possesses qualities and characteristics peculiarly his own. ln foreign countries the American, and especially the Amer- ican soldier, is looked 11pon as a distinct type-a man to be envied. Those of us who have always lived in this country are likely to become 11nconscio11s of the fact that we, as a nation and as individuals, have qualities which no other people possess. Then is it not worth while to consider the American man and the forces which have made him what he is? The tirst quality which impresses 11s as being strictly American is the democratic spirit of o11r citizens. Gther nations have enjoyed democracy to 501116 extent, bllt it was the founders of o11r nation who' formulated a working plan for a government deriving its powers from the governe l. Do ycu know how Motley speaks of the American Republic? He says, The American democracy is the 1'CSllll of all that was great in bygone times. All led 11p to it. It embodies all. Mount Sinai is in it, Greece is in it, Egypt is in it. Rome is in it, England is in itg all the arts are in it, all the reformations, and all the dis- coveriesf' Beginning at the beginning of time he th11s s11ms 11p the march of events which ends in the American Rep11blic. Speech, the alphabet, Blount Sinai, Egypt, Greece. Rome, Nazareth, the fe11dal system, gunpowder, the print- ing press. the mariner's compass. America. A democratic government makes democratic citizens. Our forefathers left us the principle that all men are equal before the law. Under SllCll a doctrine a man nat11rally regarded his fellow-citizens as his equals. The spirit of democracy has derived vigor fro111 Olll' democratic institutions Free speech. a free press and free ch11rch have had their place. b11t one of the strongest factors has been o11r educational system. Rich and poor, immigrant and Amer- ican-born, have worked in school side by side, and they have learneil to value each other. not for the 21ll1OllI1t of money possessed or social standing acquired. b11t for the type of manhood which they have manifested. The pioneer life i11 America and the vast reso11rces of Ulll' nation have tended to make men more democratic. ln the past there has been no need of depriving another of a chance to make money for there was all opportunity for all. Then. too, the pioneers fOlllNl that they had to work together in order to protect themselves from the dangers of the frontier. There, as in the public schools, a man was ranked according to l1is courage and l1is dependability. American citizens, as a rule. are intelligent. Compared with other llZl.tlOllS only a small percentage of o11r people are illiterate. An Englishman remarkel that tl1e ai111 of the school system in his ow11 country was to make the pupil a better subject, llllt the ai111 of the p11blic schools in America is to make the child Il better man. livery year intelligent citizens go Ullf from 'he p11blic schools of o11r country to lill places of usefulness. llut while training has developed the American intellect. we believe that it is naturally con1pete11t. The Euglisli, the Scotch. tl1e Dutch, and many other nationalities have each contributed something to the making of the intelligent .Xmerican. lt is this intellectual genius which has made possible the achievements of many of the more orfinary type as well as the acerwmplishments of giants, such as Edison and llurbank. .Xlong with Yankee genius we think of what is commonly terme'l Yankee lforty-toni push-the daring and energy which has developed the great resources of out country and built up commercial enterprises reaching to all parts of the world. The slogan, Go West, young man, go West, was answered by thousands of young men. As Mark Twain says in Roughing It, It was the only popula- tion of the kind the world has ever gathered together, and it is not likely the world will ever see its like again. For observe, it was an assemblage of two hundred thousand young men-not simpering, dainty, kid-gloved weaklings, but stalwart, muscular, dauntless young braves, brimful of push and energy and royally endowed with every attribute that goes to make up a peerless and magnifi- cent manhood-the very pick and choice of the world's glorious ones. Such men needed only the great opportunities of the VVest to develop into the resource- ful, live citizens we find in America today. Finally, we believe that one of the Americans striking characteristics is his idealism. The true American has a conception of brotherhood-brotherhoofl of American citizens-the brotherhood of all humanity. ln his speech on Brotherhood Theodore Roosevelt says, lt is of the utmost benefit to the com- munity to have the men thrown together under circumstances which force them to realize their community of interest, especially where the community of interest arises from community devotion to a lofty ideal. The Civil NN'ar rendered precisely this service. It was, in part, this spirit of brotherhood which led American mining firms in Peru to pay decent living wages when there was no de- mand for them and to provide houses so much too good that some workmen took off the doors and window sashes and burned them for fuel. This policy of the mining lirms has steadily raised labor standards in all South America. America showed this spirit of brotherhood by establishing one of the best school systems in the world in the Philippine lslands and regenerating the whole population. The spirit of brotherhood prompted America to support Cuba in her struggle for independence. XVith this spirit the United States returned the indemnity of the Boxer uprising to China that it might be devoted to educational purposes. In the great war America, alone, was lighting for the cause of humanity and not for any selfish interest. President Wilson said recently in an address in France, l have been keenly aware that there have been times when the people of Europe have not under- stood the people of the United States. Vile have been too often supposed to have been devoted chiefly. if not entirely. to material enterprises. Wle have been supposed, in the common phrase, to worship the almighty dollar. XVQ have accumulated wealth. we have devoted ourselves to material enterprises with extraordinary success, but there has underlain all of that. all of the time. a common sense of humanity and a common sympathy with the high principles of justice which has never grown dim even in the field of enterprise. This is the spirit of the United States and they have been privilegefl to send two million men over here to tell you so. This spirit is present in the whole world as never before. As someone has said, For the first time in history a gre. up of dele- gates from the nations has been discussing the welfare of humanity instead of that of their own governments. Orison Swett Marden says. The way to get the most out of ourselves or out of life is not to trv to sell ourselves for the highest possible price, but to give ourselves, not stingily, meanly, but royally, magnanimously, to our fellows. The American man has been given a rich heritage. independence, genius, energy. altruism. He will fail in his duty unless he passes these gifts to others. What the world needs is not more men, but more man--a bigger, trues, nobler type of manhood. Forty-live Salzztatfory A World Danger-Americais Answer By JOSEPH LIPKIN From the time immemorial there have been symptoms of social unrest among the peoples of the world. ln numerous instances these symptoms developed into revolutions which at the crisis of the reaction overthrew monarchies or whole nations. This was, on the whole, beneficial: without social revolution we could never have attained our present stage of civilization. All of these upheavals had a purpose. Some of them failed in its accomplishment, while to the success of others we now owe our state of comparative liberty and toleration. In the past few years, however, we have been called upon to witness a revolution, remarkable in that it has no apparent purpose, no reason for being. 1 refer to Bolshevism, as established in Russia. The only apparent purpose of the Bolsheviki is to establish the rule of the working class only and to bring the middle and upper classes into utter subjection. But even this is seen as but the oratorical bait offered by the ringleaders of the movement. Our present concern is the threatened spread of Bolshevism thru the rest of the world and particularly in America. Nor is this a vacant threat. There have been signs and mutterings of incipient Bolshevism in America. The deportation of many propagandists is ample testimony' to the activities of the agents of the Reds.', It is well at present to question ourselves as to what chances llolshevism has for existence in America, to analyze the threat of a Soviet government in this country. A certain danger lies in the world itself, its novelty, its suggestive- ness and its identification as a contrast to autocracy. There are disciples of Lenine and Trotzky thruout the land. It is but natural that Soviet govermnent, like any other scheme, should have supporters in every nation of the world. A certain world-wide organization, tho of ill repute, enthusiastically endorses Bolshevism and its results. This organization exercises a sinister intiuence on a surprisingly large munber of workers. Early in February, at the capitol of the nation. almost within the shadows of the halls of congress, a meeting largely attended, passed resolutions endors- ing the Soviet government. Vtfe can see that the warning against Bolshevism is not an empty threat. And yet, that Bolshevism, the social upheaval which has brought nothing but terror into every home in Russia, has had but little effect on the majority of Americas citizens. The difference between the intiuence that the llolsheviki have had on the ignorant peasantry of Russia and the enlightened citizenry of the United States can be expressed in one word and that word is Education In this country we have been taught from childhood to believe in an orderly. responsible, regulated, liberty. XVe are a nation of the people. by the people. and for the people, in spirit as well as word. ln the people was lodged the power of framing a constitution and with them lies the privilege of changing or amend- ing it. lt is not necessary, here in America, to use the lawlessness and violence of llolshevism to accomplish any political reform, for our government provides and points out methods for bringing about in an orderly way any changes that may be desired by the body of the people. This body of laws. our defense against the menace of llolshevism, has only been possible thru the education of the citizen body of the republic. Its reputation and our survival as a free nation demand that this education be maintained and extended. The best way to insure the freedom of any nation and its protection from any preconceived or spontaneous political or social revolution. is to edu-fate the Forty-six people of that nation in the purposes and ideals of their country, to foster in them the spirit of true democracy and the capacity for self government. It was but natural for Bolshevism to gain headway in Russia. The peasantry restricted and exploited for generations by the privileged few were prevented from securing any education and thus raising the level of their lives, by an autocratic ruler who realized the peril to his throne, should his people but raise their heads and look about them. Can they be blamed for making the hour of their deliverance a time of overturning, of destruction, of privilege? But now with the opportunity of permanent deliverance in their hands, they are proving unequal to the task of making their freedom certain. They have neither knowledge of conditions necessary for national stability nor the self-discipline which would enable them to turn their energies into useful and constructive channels. A good example of the contrast of conditions of Bolshevism in Russia and in America is offered in any American city with a large foreign population. It is a well known fact that the great percentage of anarchists, I. VV. W'.'s and Bol- sheviki in our great cities are recruited from the foreign population. But it is also a fact that the nation boasts of no more loyal nor well behaved citizens than the descendants of those very foreigners, people who in their child- hood were given the opportunities open to all Americans and who took full advantage of them. It is clear that education, not merely enlightenment, but the teaching of selfsdiscipline, enables the individual to see that his own pros- perity is based on his own skill, thrift and persistence. Such a man will listen to no silver-tongued demagogue who promises to make the land How with milk and honey. The obvious way then, to dispose of the menace of lflolshevism and to pre- vent its further introduction is to let education take its due course and to fur- ther its purpose when possible. America, today a recognized leader among the nations of the world, has always encouraged and extended education. No country in the world has a greater system or more efficient plan of public education than that which exists in America. In number of public schools, we have no equal, and, for higher education, we can boast of more colleges and universities per capita than any other nation in the world. The bulwark Education has long been erected against the battering forces of revolution and dissension. The brains and power of America have manned it and repulsed the invasion of tyranny or anarchy. To the present generation comes the opportunity of hlling the ranks and maintaining the integrity of the nation and the energetic youth of America which recognizes and responds to any such need as confronts the nation will not allow the defense to cease. They will hold aloft the torch of enlightenment which has been thrown to them. Class Song VVe are leaving tho' we're grieving, Tho' the rocks, they be rugged, The time has drawn near Still upward we climb, When we must leave old XVest High For success that we gather Which we've held so dear. The praise will be thine. Tho' we've spent four years For thy memory'll be with us And have shed many tears, Vtfherever we go. We've enjoyed each moment so well, lint now we must say farewell. -TTELIEN lXlClNTOSH.

Moreover, with each succeeding year it has strengthened its claim to that title, until, in the ,lunior year, it leads the school. In the Sophomore year. four of its athletes won tirst team places on the football team. Not content with this, class lJ3SlC6tlJElll team won the school championship, while in track, the class team was awarded second place. ln debate, declamatory work and societies, olll' ability was recognized. By the junior year the class had found its stride and led all other classes. The bulwark of the football team was composed of juniors, practically all the bas- ketball men were all-star, and in track, hrst place was easily added to the victories of the class of '20, An unusual honor for the juniors was to have a cheer leader selected from their ranks, as this position normally belongs to a Senior. In debate and declamatory work junior experts maintained fthe class standards. Unusual interest in Cyclone and llericane Clubs was shown by the class fur- nishing most of the attendance. Excellent programs were given by the class society under the leadership of Jewell Johnson, president, and Owen llitchens, secretary. lfifty-one Merchant of Venice Up!

XVe displayed our talents in other pursuits, in the spare time between lessons. Football claimed our attention when we first entered XVest High and Max Miller promptly entered the second team. Une morning the assembly was in charge of the Freshmen, and the paper said the class of '21 proved their ability to compete with upper classmen: and besides that, Mr. VVallace told us it was the best program of the year. The upper classmen gave us a delightful time at the Freshmen Mixer that fall. The only other party we had during our Freshman year was a picnic at Elk Run, which made up for a whole season of social affairs. This closed our Freshman year-a year which started us on our career of fame and predicted a remarkable future for the class of '21, Wie returned in the fall of 1918 as Sophomores and promptly started to do things. Max Miller stepped into the tirst team in football. john Danton and Milo .lenkins condescended to play hrst team basketball and joseph Sheridan gave the basketball second team his support. By winning the Spectator contest we were entitled to raise our Hag over the school for a week and to present a play in the assembly. So we proudly proceeded to Hy our blue and white banner and to present a play entitled, The End of a Perfect Day, written by two Sophomore girls, and enacted by a noteworthy cast. Our class is also musically declined ls well represente'l in both Glee Club and l'hilomel. The oratorical class was composed entirely of Sophomores. Max l.evingston was our representative in the declamatory contest. Merle Francis represented us in debate. Much Spectator material has been handed in by Sophomores and we pub- lished one copy. This winter we gave a Sophomore party, and it was truly a success. Normadine llanks and Dorothy llurt were on the Student Council this year and Miss Yan Yalkenburg has given us her valuable support as our class advisor. XYe were led by Maurice Cohn as president, llortha liober as vice president and .Xdelaide Sweet as secretary and treasurer. These otlicers also presided at the .Xthenian Society.

This Freshman class numbered 100 bashful girls and boys. The first day was one never to be forgotten when some of the Freshmen were trying to find Miss Greens room and one of the upper classmen was kinl enough to tell them that The Kindergarten was in the other building. After a few days of hard study when a little of their greenness had worn off, they had their first class meeting to elect officers. They were as fol- lows: President ...... ....

The next event was a Freshman party. The little ones all came dressed up in their best. The more sedate Freshies spent the evening in dancing, while the younger ones amused themselves in various ways. 'The class is well represented in all activities of the school. On the athletic field, Theodore Sedgewiek, Harold Owen, Moses Miller, Russell Swcitzer, John Campbell. james McGinley, have won many points for this class. Their strenuous efforts gave to the class of 1022 third place in the annual home track meet. Moreover, many members have great talent in music. Ruth llassett. Martha llawson, Geraldine Fitzgerald and Genevieve Munn are members of first Vhilomel The class is also represented in the Second l'hilomel, second fllee Club and school orcllestril.

Mathews. Farr and Barron. large gaps had been left in the line-up. To develop consistent players to take the places of these men was the most difhcult problem which the coach had to solve. llowever, he had four veterans, Capt. Clyde Miller, Doc Miller, llitchens and Red Lichty as a nucleus. Furthermore the coach knew his busi- ness and proved himself a real miracle man when he built around these four men a team of championship caliber. This was the most unified grid machine ever developed by a XYest High coach. The warriors went into every game with a determination to iight and win. thus producing the finest football record in the history of their school. The failure to win the Eldora game was the only obstacle for the state honors. To Capt. Clyde Miller. our dynamic and versatile grid star. much credit is due for his brilliant work which made this season such a success. This terri- fying halfback scored both of the touchdowns against Des Moines, and did the same thing against Cedar Falls and East lligh. llis touchdowns resulted from sensational runs of from 30 to 100 yards. Out of the 207 points. Clyde scored 115. This was possible because of the splendid interference of his team- mates. For his extraordinary ability in this sport he was placed on the all-state team. The aggregation won eight out of nine games playel rolling up 207 points while holding their opponents to 117. The enemy crossed our goal but three times, twice by lildora, the only team -rhich defeated us. :md once by Nashua. The curtain for XXX-st lligh's 1013 football drama was raised Sept. 21, The lirst act was the encounter with lfldora. ln the fourth scene Clyde Kliller was carried unconscious oil' the lield with two broken ribs. while Gorman retired with a broken collar bone. XYith these two men absent. the big Eldora negro fullback went thru our gladiators for Iwo touchdowns. while Gardiner drop-kicked for us and secured three points. Score. 13-3. No other games were lost. The next Saturday we met and defeated Nashua on their field, 13-fi. The iirst real test came when XYest lies .Xloines invaded out territory to do battle with us. The latter soon left with :i goose egg while we hal to be content with 14 points. ee Sixty -six Sixty-seven The Flu put the lid on the pigskin game until November Zd. On account of the epidemic Cedar Falls canceled their game with us. Arranging one with Independence, we met them on our held and ran rough-shod over them with a score of 34-O. Charles City was the next victim we buried underneath an 87-O score in their territory. On the following Saturday our ancient rivals, Cedar Rapids attacked us on our ground, but the attack was short lived, for we showed greater strength and over-powered them with a 13-O score and eliminated them from the state race. The climax of the drama came when we received the decision in the duel with Marshalltown, one of the strongest teams in the state, and a com- petitor for the state championship. The score was 14-O. Against these opponents Capt. Clyde Miller pulled off his greatest play when he intercepted a forward pass on his own goal line and raced lOO yards for a touchdown. Qur next triumph was over Dubuque, whom we defeated 16-C. The victory over East High rang down the curtain for the season. For the first time in the history of the two schools, the annual turkey-day battle had to be postponed. On account of the heavy snow which fell during the day, the game was played on the Saturday following Thanksgiving day. Tho the slippery lield stopped many plunges, it failed to hinder Capt. Miller, who made the two touchdowns from runs of 40 to 50 yards and kicked one goal, making the score 13-O. The return of nine letter men next year, some new material in addition, and with such a record as the above to look back upon, the chance for a championship team next season looks exceptionally good.

In these, the yearlings were knocked about by such men as Doc . Clyde and l lap . However, by furnishing this opposition to the varsity, many of them received sutiicient experience to win a place on the squad the following season. The fellows who formed this scrappy combination Owen tCapt.l Hay, Forrester, Tarbell, Sedgewick, Jenkins and Knoop These names should be remembered. Cedar Rapids. Marshalltown, XVest Des Moines and other opponents would never have been beaten had not the varsity squad received strenuous training by plunging against the tireless working seconds. Cecil Gorman not being able to participate in most of the games on account ol' injuries received in the first encounter, developed these youngsters into a machine which was often strong to hold the lirst for downs.

On the defensive he was a terrible tackler. Often stopping a man after he had escaped every one else. Moreover. his capable leadership put such spirit into his mates that he received great support. .Xs a running mate with Clyde, Hap llitchens proved a great asset to the team. Again and again he would spill the enemy and open a path for the captain. Hap was probably the best defense man on the squad. For this work, he was honored on the all-state secon'l team. His popularity with his mates won him the captainey for next season. Doc Miller needs no introduction. In every branch of the game he was a real star. This husky fullback greatly worried his opponent when the latter either tried to stop or pass thru him foi he was a territic line smasher and a defensive smashing defensive man. lly his punts we were often put out of danger when the enemy threatened our goal. Doc claims a berth on the all-northern Iowa team and in the all-city team besides receiving honorable mention from a noted Des Moines critic. Ile will be a corner stone for the next season's aggregation. Rusty Allen receives the honors as Doc , being placed as right end on the all-northern lowa team and on the city eleven. Rusty is a performer of unusual merit. A hard and accurate tackler and a bear at break'ng up inter- ference. lle will remain with the squad for another year and with his expe- rience in handling forward passes this season, he promises to develop into a great receiver of the sailing pigskin. .Xnother warrior of the same caliber is lied Lichty. Like all genuine red-heads, Lichty is a scrapper. Time and again he nailed the opposing runner before he had time to take a step. On the offensive he smashed the line and opened up holes for the backlield in aggressive style. Rooster is a popular man on the team and will prove a 'valuable cog for the machine next season. lfor his swift and accurate passing and hard plugging .Xntone was honore'l with the position at center. 'liho not what we may call a star, Tony is that kind ul- a steadv and consistent worker, who makes winning combinations. Ile always seemed 'tim get ahead uf his oppcncnt and tackled a man hard. .Xntone will graduate this year and his absence on the llllll eleven will be keenly felt. Seventy Smash 'emg Bust 'eml was Chet's custom when it came to a football scrap. Owen knew how to charge and dropped the enemy's men like a machine gun. ln several games Chet made things exciting by blocking the enemy's punts. For his consistent playing he was placed at the guard position on the all-city eleven. To till the hole which Chet leaves by his graduation will be a problem. Max Miller is one of the famous Miller brothers. .-Xltho handicapped in size, weight, and experience, the little pilot ran the team in great form. Max was a good passer and a wonder at returning punts. On the defensive he was right there and the red blood showed to advantage when he faced a bigger opponent. This was Max's first year. Before he is through he is sure to become a stellar performer. NX'est lligli's laurels appealed to Merrill, who attended school at Minneapo- lis, so he came to us in order that he might share in the spoils. ln the mean- time the Old Rose and lllack eleven was greatly benehted by the aid which this heavy-set fellow could furnish. He was a great man at handling the ball as well as sending it off with his toe. He graduates this year. From Conrad hailed another gridiron man to furnish grit and drive to the Old Rose and Black machine. Roemer's weight and aggressiveness won him a guard position. The ambitions of opposing teams were short lived when T. J. took a hand. lslis appearance on the squad next year will add much to the strength of the team. Cohn was the shining light among the scrubs at center. llowever, when .Xntone was laid up with the flu , he was given that position on the first squad. lsle was a hard worker and showed such ability that he alternated at the guard position with Knoop. Cohn is a comer. lVith added weight and improved physical condition he should display much power next fall. There was much mourning in the lndependence camp when they learned that Y. Allen had deserted them. lYhitty was a corker on that team, but an unusual abundance of good material in our ranks prevented hini from being a regular. lslowever, he is a NNY man and in the games in which he played he lived up to his plugging reputation. This is l.'erne's last year. Knoop is another man who quickly developed from 9. scrub to a varsity man. XYhat he lacked in experience, he made up in his size and weight. lle was a consistent player throughout the year. tearing great holes in the foe's ranks for the backtield to go thru. Xllith a better knowledge of the game an'l with more ginger and speed. he should make a name for himself next year. l'laying at end we have the fleet-footed llarron. Time and time again he roused the crowd to great enthusiasm as he would run down the tielfl for a forward pass. lle was always full of pep and his encouragement to his team mates did much to hold the opposing line in time of danger. XVith three more years ahead of him. he should surely develop into an all-state man. Un account of the flu Gardiner failed to appear in most of the games: yet he played enough to win an honor NNY . llad he been fortunate enough to perform in all the games. he would probably have developed into gi great kicker. lt was linnny who kept us from a white-wash at the hands of Fldora when he drop-kicked in the last few minutes of play. W Gorman was one of the victims of the lfldora game where he suffered a broken collar bone. This prevented him from displaying his real worth. lYith the kind of work be did at quarter against the lndustrial school eleven. there is no doubt but that he would have attracted much attention if he had had a better opportunity. Ilurnham is the guy who put ham in llnrnham. llc was not quite fast enough this year, but being a good worker lze showed signs of development and is bound lo make the eleven next fall. Srvcnty-two Basketball Season l'rospects for a winning combination this year were very dark. Such veterans as Captain-elect Fat Leonard and NlcAlvin upon whom great hopes were based. went to whip the Kaiser. Then, too, Clyde Miller. champion guard of the 1918 quintet left at the end of the football season to care for his farm. Moreover, Ilap llitchens and Rusty .Xllen were being tormented by mumps at the opening of the season. These dark ages of Vtlest l'ligh's basket- ball, however, brightened before the first game was played. Paul Farr, a veteran of last year's live had returned from the navy and immediately came out for practice. Then during the inter-class basketball games, the coach was able to pick out enough men to build a strong first and second team. XYith live new men on the varsity, Coach Miller had a difficult task to develop team- work. He did it however, but not till late in the season when Old Rose and lllack quintet had full force. Up to that period the lineup constantly changed. llefore sending his warriors into the initial battle, Coach Hiller tested the ability of his machine against two Alumni quintets composed of former Vllest High stars. The honors were evenly divided. To start our campaign, we chal- lenged the veteran Marshalltown squad, but were defeated to the tune of 1-l-27. ln the following week Orange Township and Cedar Falls were the opponents of whom the former bowed to us and we to the latter. lowa City was the victor over us in the next contest. 'Discourag-:rl with these defeats, we buried the undefeated Charles City quintet beneath a 33-15 score. Meeting Marshall- town for the second time we were again obliged to take the medicine, losing this time by a six-point margin. More tough luck. On February 1-lth, Marion defeated us on our own floor and traveling to Ft. Dodge we once more accepted the small end of the score. The following week we tackled the Marion Eve on their Hoor where we were swept off our feet by a large margin. Then came our worst defeat of the season. Cedar Rapids who was considered to have had the best combination in the state. collecte.l all their strength and wallopefl our bunch to a frazzle. Our men were worked harder than ever and their toil was honorably rewarded when we took sweet revenge on Ft. Dodge in a return game with a 30-1-1 score. ln one of the hardest fought contests of the season. the Old Rose and lllack warriors held Cedar Falls to 19 points. while they accumulated 1-l. 1Yest lligh was doped as a dark horse in the Cedar Falls tournament, but the dope was short lived when we were alloted to do battle with the clan of Nashua. ln a heart-breaking game we were eliminated by a 12-10 score. .Xll the defeats, however, were brought to naught when we hurley- burleyed' Fast lligh. During the contest which ended -13-6, our rivals succeeded in making but one lield goal. 11910 basketball- XYest lligh ,................ .... 1 4 Nlarshalltown . . .

Guard W-ith his aggressiveness and speed, Farr was a whirlwind. Always on the go, he greatly troubled his opponents. Un the offensive, playing a forward position, he was a bear when it came to teamwork, where quick action and accu- rate passing was necessary. In the majority of games Farr accumulated most of the .points both by held goals and via the foul route. 'On the defensive, he proved an excellent guard, in which position he performed in several games Farr was the only veteran on the team and will graduate this year. Although handicapped by lack of practice, on account of the mumps, Rusty Allen had plenty in him to do the great work which won him the captaincy for 1920. As a forward he could not be excelled in speed or in locating the goal NVith another year's experience, Rusty has an enviable future in this sport As a running guard. Gardiner was 'above par. XVhen all men were covered, he woud slip away from his man and locate the basket when he was near. Snatching it from him with surprise Gardiner either dribhled down the floor or started some brilliant team work in which he greatly aided with his swift and trickery passing. XX'ith his aid next year. the season is sure to be a success. XYest lIigh's defense also rested upon Hap Hitchens. the Hercules of our hand. who ably lilled the position of standing guard. XYith Hap on the floor. the signals were short-lived. Ilis ability to cover the floor gave Gardiner many opportunities to work on the offensive. ln time of stress. the smile of our Uncle Seventy-six Happy was a great encouragement, which usually reversed the state of affairs. Hitchens will be a valuable cog for the 1920 campaign. Although playing his first year of varsity basketball, Haselman performed like a veteran. The word quit does not exist in his vocabulary. On the defen- sive or offensive, he was adways full of pep and ginger. Possessing the speed 3l1Cl accurate eye, he was a constant source of worry to the enemy. Nuts is a Junior and with more experience he is bound to make a name for himself and his school in the basketball world. Whitey Allen was there with the goods when he was called upon to per- form either at a forward position or at center. Like his brother, he had speed which he used to the clever advantage in getting away from his men. At center he often amused the spectators by outjumping the six footers playing against him. VVith his large contribution of points, he was our mainstay in many games. Although he will graduate this spring, his name will always remain a credit to NVest High. Before Hitchens appeared, Danton occupied the job at standing guard. The rapid development which he showed is a fair omen that he will be king of the basketball realm before he is through. His hobby was to get the ball from his man and bewilder the performers by a sudden disappearance. lVhen again seen two points were added to his credit. Since he is only a Sophomore the future should hold large success for this youngster. Although but a Freshman, lenkins did the consistent plugging which won him a berth with the regulars. He could always be depended upon to go into the fray with great strength and speed. This smashing little forward was a dead shot, preferring to make 'em via the long distance route. In this manner he often played havoc with the enemy's guards. Besides these men, Cohn performed in four games and Doc Miller in one. The former was a promising man at center, but his inability to locate the cage cost him that position on the varsity. Doc Miller's handicap was his weight, which was too much for the basketball field, where he was unable to perform as nimbly as his more experienced friends. VVith this year's experience, however, both should show up to advantage next year. Seventy-seven Second Basketball Team Personnel ,I oe Sheridan ...... ...... . . . Forward llurnham .... .

Guard More fortunate than the first string men were the seconds. going through the season with two victories and one defeat. ln reality it was another first team, for the varsity was often upset by the speedy work of their juniors. The reason for their strength is due to the fact that almost every man on that team played Y. Bl. C. A. basketball for several years previous. Moreover, each one of them played at least once with the first team. This equality gave both quin- tets valuable training. which they will put to good effect next season. The stick-to-it spirit of the seconds this year was rewarded more than ever before. Such men as Haselman and Cohn would never have gained a berth on the varsity had they not played hard and consistently on the yearling com- bination. lrlasehnan had a good eye for the basket, but lacked speed. which the training he received by chasing his elders soon supplied. lt was only then that he became a regular on the first squad. You fellows who think that because you cannot make the hrst team. it is unnecessary to come out at all, ought to get this idea out of your heads if you want to get anywhere. How could you pass an examination on a certain subject without first working hard to study that subject? Then why should you expect to make the team without work? To make a successful athlete have one thing in mind, plug hard with a clean body. I nter-C lass Basketball To arouse some pep among the basketball men and the student body, a series of games were arranged whereby each class met the other once. This gave op- portunities both to the fellows who wished to make a showing and to the coach who could look them over in action. lYith a wealth of material which later formed the greater part of the varsity team, the juniors easily walked off with the honors, winning all their games. On the other hand. the Seniors were so handicapped with the lack of men that their fortune was to be the cellar champs. Standing Team. XYon.

Lichty Butch Brown Hoag Harold Gwen Doc Miller Red Lichty XVith four veterans back from the 1918 squad and with much new material, Coach Max Miller succeeded in turning out one of the best teams ever devel- oped in XYest lligh. Under his care and with the able assistance of Fred Frehse, the bunch received the polish which enabled XYest High to win the Cedar Yalley meetg to land sixth place in the University of Iowa tourney, and also score at the Drake relays. Much credit is also due to the individuals who co-operated with the coaches by coming out each day to keep in training. To start things going it was decided to hold the annual track meet on April llth, but it had to be postponed because the weather put the field out of commission. NYhile .-Xpollo was getting the best of him, Captain Peterson led his gladiators to participate in the Drake relays where university. college and high school teams were represented in respective sections. Many of the largest high schools in the state, as North, East and lYest Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, Davenport and others made competition very keen, yet we are able to place fourth in the mile relay, Sedgewick, Lichty, Peterson and Doc Miller partici- pating. Moreover, the team received the necessary training of competing with new men on foreign ground. XYhen the squad returned, our field was in condition. On the following lfriday the inter-class meet was held with Glenn Nlastain in command as mana- ger. All the four classes turned out strong teams, which produce-l good COINPC- tition in most events. The first few contests, however, soon told the story that the .Iuniors were to be conquerors. .Ns in basketball. they had the greatest Eighty advantage in having the greatest number of men, including Doc Miller, Peterson and Red Lichty, who all made the track team. VVith their sixty-six points they bested the Seniors with 37.22 secured on the held and 15 by winning the ticket sale contest. The Freshmen and Sophomores respectively followed with 21 and ll points. Doc llliller, who displayed excellent ability as a sprinter, accumulated the greatest number of points. V. Allen copped the running broad jump, while Harold Owen took first place in high jumping. In the shot put and discus Doc excelled. Peterson demonstrated what he could do by winning the long distance runs. Although a new man in the game, Sedge- wick showed proficiency in the hurdles, while Lichty and Mose Miller proved to have the stuff at pole vaulting. The records made by these men put confidence into the coach and into the team as to the outcome of the future meets. On May 3rd, Coach Miller took his squad to the Iowa interscholastic meet. from which we emerged in sixth place with eleven points, beating Davenport, the dark horse of the meet, by two-fifths point. The victors were the lads from North Des Moines, with thirty-one points. Cedar Rapids, with twenty-two. came next, and then Mason City, with twenty-one and a half. East Des Moines and VVest Des Moines followed with seventeen and thirteen and a tenth points respectively. For XVest High Doc Miller won the bulk of the events, eopping lirst in the 220, third in the lOO-yard dash and fourth in the discus. Captain Peterson took fourth in the half mile, while VVhitney Allen secured third place in the running broad jump. ln the half mile relay, fourth place was awarded to our team. Considering the competition, West lligh did some real work, for which much credit is due the coach and the team. Determined to bring back the loving cup from the Cedar Valley meet. our warriors marched ohf to show their worth at XiVaverly. They did what they were able. They brought the cup home to keep. since this was the third con- secutive victory. Also a banner and two cups won in the relays. besides many individual medals. This was no ordinary victory. llesi 'es breaking three asso- , M KQV , ' f .yflgcfxsgzgqx ' :V-nj, ' , - - - I ,V K f- I l Es l t llighty-one ciatron records and tieing one, we came close enough to the remaining so as to win in practically every event. Nashua palced second, while XVaverly was third. Leading the held in the 220 and 440-yard dashes, Doc Miller was the individual star of the meet. Moreover, his aid in the relays resulted in the record breaking time. Doe also broke the record in the 440 by making it in fifty-four seconds, a second less than that made in 1916 by Perry of Teachers' High, Cedar Falls. Captain Peterson came near breaking the record in the 880-yard run when he made it in 2:10. within a second of the association record. Nineteen feet, ten inches. in the running broad jump spelled hrst place for XVhitey Allen. This beats the work in finals at 1owa City, where the winners made only nineteen feet seven inches. Our medley team with Butch Brown, 220 yards, Doc Miller, 440. llanton 880 yards, and Hoag three-fourths mile, also broke the association record of 7:20, making it in 7:19. Another record was smashed in the half-mile relay, which was won by Butch Brown, 1Vhitey Allen, Red Lichty and Doc Miller, time 1:38. The former record of 1:-L01-5 was also made by XVest High men in 1917. Summary of Events 100-yardl ldash- Doc Miller, 1Yaterloo3 Harrington, XVaverlyg Shoop, Nashua.

LQ ML 4wracQsMmuf,Qxwfuw5m Eighty-livr Debate The debating year of '19, strictly speaking, could hardly be termed suc- cessful. Although with but one debate on schedule for each team, they entered their work with a will, The affirmative team debated with Cedar Rapids on the state question: Resolved: That the government should establish a per- manent policy of price control for the so-called necessities of life. Our affir- mative team had gathered splendid material and by no means were they lacking in pep. However, owing to the very short time given for preparation, one point, very essential in debating, was overlooked. That of delivery. This com- bined with the lack of experience caused our defeat. At the same time our negative team debated with Marshalltown with a like result. Ilut were they down-hearted? No! Wfhy? llecause they had accom- plished two things. The team had broadened their view of life. And last, but not least, the whole school was benefited. Every member of the team will testify that thru their year's experience in debate work they have gained much that makes for success. They all realize that their vision has broadened. They are now able to see both sides of a question and weigh the points on each side. and as a result their decisions on life's questions will not be answered without thought. They have learned that it is the practical things that count and that idealistic theories are dangerous. lt will be the aim of next year's team to get sweet revenge for the defeats suffered this year. XVith the experience now gained their mission should be accomplished. The student body demonstrated that they were loyal backers of every Xliest High enterprise. Something that heretofore had been only a dream, was made a glorious realization. A crowd composed of two hundred and fifty XYest lligh boosters attended the debate. Surely this was something worth while. There is one other thing that deserves mention, that is, the way in which both teams accepted defeat. There was no crying over spilt milk, but the real XVest High spirit was prevalent. Keep in mind that it requires a stronger character to lose and be a good loser than to win. Three of the best debaters will graduate. these are Yerne jay, Caroline Munn and joseph Lipkin. XYith the whole school to pick from these positions should not be hard to till. jewell johnson, as captain, deserves great credit for the etiicient manner in which he managed the teams. joseph Lipkin, Caroline Munn, Merle Francis, liarl London and Yerne jay deserve the heartiest congratulations on their splendid work during the debating season. Miss llaker as debate coach devoted much time to the work and it was due to her etiforts that such splendid material was obtained. KI. L., '2l.

The girls feel that they have acquired a mueh better stoek of knowledge in parliamentary work and that the help gained at the meetings in developing the ability to speak in publie will prove invaluable. The otlieers elected at the tirst of the season were: Chairman-lDorothy ylenks. Seeretary-Elizabeth Forrester. Yiee Chairman-.-Xlvina Sauer. Critie-Ruth Miller. Chairman of l'rt gram Committee-lloris NYalker. The otlieers for the last half of the term were: Chairman-Cartmline Munn. Secretary-lDorothy llurt. Yiee Chairman-.Xnna Moline. Critie-Ruth Stevens. Chairman of l'rogram Committee-lil Rita Merrill. Miss Ilaker drilled ns in our preliminary law and the success of our meet- ings was largely dtte to her. The Cyelone and Ilerieane elubs combined their last two rneetings. The Iirst joint session was in eharge of the girls. who pnt on a splendid program. The parliamentary drill was eondueted by one of the llerieane girls. who con- e trolled the assemblage with the greatest skill. .X very good program was pre- sented at the joint meeting at whieh the boys trunk charge, but in the parlia- mentary praettee wlneh tollowed. the Lyelones monopohzed the Hoor and proved worthy of their name by blowing regular twisters instead of following a straight -'onrse as a llurrieane does. The Cyclone-Ilerieane party. however. proved a great street-ss and elosed a very sueeesstnl season. Many ol' the Ilerieaners will gradnte this year, but we hope to start the Society again next year. and try to make it better than ever. -ll. ll., '.2l. Ninety Cyclone Club Twelve regular meetings, two joint meetings with the Hericanes and one grand and glorious feed with the same-that's our record. NVe reorganized early in the school year and came to the front by smashing all previous attendance records. We did more. NYe actually profited by the parliamentary practice which we indulged in. Surely we have been a success! Oflicers have been selected for the next year and all in readiness for another successful season. We will be somewhat handicapped by the loss of XYilhar1n, Lipkin and jay, but all things to the contrary, indications point to another successful club. W'e wish to thank Mr. NVallace for the interest which he took in us and we are also grateful to the school janitors who waited until the wee-small hours of the morning to lock the building.

Opening last fall with twelve nieinbers, this spring we will close with one hunclrecl ancl ten. The lirst social event of the year was the Cranmhnother-llaby party given by the upper class girls of both East anal XYest Highs for the Freshmen girls. A Forcl Packarcl nieinbership was launchecl with a Cranking-up party. For one week the two sicles worked so inclustriously that at the lllow-Out party the chaulleurs reportecl eighty-live new enthusiastic members. The Roller-Skating party and the basket social, both given for the boys, were a great success. An attendance of one hunclrecl at the splenrlicl Mother ancl Daughter banquet over twenty-live last year, was the result of goocl aclver- tising. The last event of the year was a Roller-Skating party for everyone in both schools. ,-Xn afhnission of ten cents was chargecl anal refreshments were solrl, all the money going into conference expenses. Much of our success is flue to the etlorts of our secretary, Miss Minnie H, Smith. ancl to the otliccrs: l resi4lcnt-Ruth Ganz. Treasurer-Dcirothy Luinry. 'Yicc l'rcsitleut-lDorothy glenks.

Xiucly-two Boys' Hi -Y To create interest and gain members, the Boys' Hi-Y Club staged a mem- bership campaign with East High. A challenge was read at East High and answered by the president of their club. The result was about sixty-tive boys attending our first meeting. lt was planned to have luncheons on every Friday noon, followed by talks by prominent men and liible study, but due to an unfortunate combination of circumstances, it was impossible to proceed with the schedule. However, a successful Father and Son banquet was held in the parlors of the Y. M. C. A. Then followed a party in honor of the Hi-Y Girls of the city. It was given by the boys of both West and East High and included games, an impromptu program, and refreshmentsf A large munber were in attendance. The boys were also guests of the girls at an enjoyable skating party. It may be seen by this year's experience that a boys' club of this nature. in order to be both efficient and successful, must be independent of any other organization. By doing this, and proceeding with Bible study, real talks by real men, and a like program, West High should next year have a club which will line up to the highest expectations and give to the boys proper training along moral lines. The officers for the year were as follows: President-Verne jay. Vice President-Jewell Johnson. Secretary and Treasurer-Glenn Mastain.

Ninety-five Junior Drama League During the month of March the junior Drama League of East High was organizeal for the purpose of producing plays with the high school pupils as the aetors. The Community Drama League of Wfaterloo has made a name for itself all over the country and it is hoped the Junior League can clo as well. At an assemlily not long ago the League gave a play, The Dress Rehearsal, umler the clireetions of Mr. Glick. The play was well given aml every one preclietecl Il liright future for the League. XYe hope tn see ancl hear a great fleal from this new enterprise next year. -D. S. I.., '19, Ninety-six Student Council Shortly after the opening of school the different classes chose their rep- resentatives for the Student Council as follows: From the Seniors: Elizabeth Forrester and Joseph Lipkin. From the Juniors: Everett Houser and VVard Mayer. From the Sophomores: Dorothy Burt and Normadine Banks. From the Freshmen: Martha Dawson and .less McGuire. These otlicers organized themselves as the Student Council, with loseph Lipkin as president and Elizabeth Forrester as secretary. Aside from the regular duties of a school council, the organization this year found itself confronted with peculiar tasks as a result of the great war. It was on this account that the council took a census of the amount of Liberty Bonds and VVar Savings Stamps held by VVest High students. Among the many other shortages there occured a shortage of dyes. This made it impossible to obtain Old Rose color for use on football equipment and decoration. ln a special meeting the council decided the wisest choice for a substitute would be the color most resembling Old Rose and then available. This color was found to be scarlet, which color was adopted at the next assemby. The change in color combination was not made permanent. The greatest accomplishment of the year, however, and the one which will identify this council from all others,Was the erection of a memorial tablet to the VVest High students killed in the great war. The students now attending West High, aided by a few of the interested business men, purchased a bronze tablet whereon were engraved the names of the West High students who gave their lives in the cause of the United States. This tribute will hang in the halls of XiVest High as long as the school is in existence. -EVERETT llovsiuz, '20, Ninety-Seven !IlIIIIllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllIIIIIIllllIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHlllllllIIlllllllIIIIllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIlllllllIllllllllllllllllllllll ERVANT and master am Ig servant of those dead, and master of those living.

Sheridan, ,lay and Leimer. met and elected officers for the current year. Those selected were: james Gardiner, president, Chester Owen, secretary. To those in the Club were added Merrill, Y. Allen, Easley and later Haselman. Towards the close of the school year .Ioe Sheridan decided to work. Glenn Miller was given his place. Then 'llurner moved to California and Moses Miller was substituted. The Glee Club of this year has proved to be one of the finest ever produced by XYest lligh. Thru hard earnest work there has been perfected a harmony that will long linger in the memories of its hearers, and these are many The club sang at public programs, assemblies and during the declamatory try-out. They also sang at the meetings of the County 'lleachers' Institute. Northwestern Section of Iowa State 'l'eachers' .'Xssociation, and provided the music at one of the Rotary Club luncheons. l'robably the major part of the success was due to the patience and work Miss Sullivan expended.

Second' Glee Club The Second Glee Club, under the supervision of Miss Sullivan, has had another successful year, Much credit for this success is due Miss Sullivan. The club appeared in one public program with the first glee club. Four of its members, Glenn Miller, Moses Miller, Eldred llaselman and Verne -lay, have been transferred to the First Glee Club. Verne .lay was elected president, but after his elevation no other member was elected to this office. ' Because of the special music being given by the First Glee Club and the l'hil- omel Chorus it was necessary for Miss Sullivan to give her time to this so the club was discontinued for a short tnne, but it hoped that next year it may be reorganized.
