In tlie “W” of last year, under the caption of “Quadrangle Towers,” I out¬ lined the educational program under four headings: 1. The Needs of a Growing In¬ dustrial Community; 2. The Three Types of Schools Under the Present Plan of Organization; 3. The Building Plan Made to Conform to Educational Needs ; 4. The Economic Situation to Sustain this Program. The ideal of the “Quadrangle Towers” will lead us on as we grow and build; this year, under the captions of: 1. Our School Today; 2. Our School To-mor¬ row, I wish to give something more in detail concerning the outstanding things in the program as it is being worked out today, and as we hope it will develop in the days to come. I. OUR SCHOOL TODAY (a) Quadrangle Growth. During the year a new unit has been added to the Junior building, and the Vocational unit was started. These units make provision for: a large Art Room to accommodate two groups, one in Drawing and one in Metal Craft; a Biology group of two rooms for recitation and laboratory purposes, and one room for plans; four recitation rooms; an Assembly for Junior Groups; an Auto-Me- chanics Shop; a Mechanical Drawing Room; a Distributing Store-Room; a Print Shop for try-out courses. (b) Curriculum Rebuilding. Curriculum study and readjustment has centered around the idea of making the daily class-hour more efficient. The chief feature of the present practice, is the working out of graded assignment material which can be placed in the hands of students in order to make individualized instruction possible to a larger extent than has hitherto been possible. This is the first step to bring about a reduction in the number of failures in the various courses. At the pres¬ ent time six courses are in the process of being printed in mimeograph form. In these courses the units have been fixed and the graded assignment cards have been prepared. Try-out courses are now in operation in the Elemental Science classes of the Freshman year, and in the first year of Manual Arts. The first steps in formulating the courses of study were taken by having each department determine the objectives, which should obtain in that particular depart¬ ment: the specified objectives for the various courses in the departments were also fixed. The Illinois Objectives for Secondary Education and those of the National Association of Secondary School Principals were used in this work. Every effort is being made to stimulate interest in scholarship, and a high grade of work in shops and laboratories. From time to time a brief ceremony is given to honor those whose records are high. A carnation is given to each student whose name appears on the honor list. An appropriate talk is given at the time to impress the alue of fine Craftsmanship in any kind of work; a word of encouragement is given also to those who find academic work difficult. (c) Citizenship Development. The foundation for this wmrk lies in the gen¬ eral instruction given in the Government Groups, including all of the Junior and Sophomore Classes. This work is given to each group once a week throughout the year. This course is given informally, and is kept abreast of the times. Through home visitation by the Personnel Officer for the schools, as a whole, and by teachers of the Vocational School for that school, the contact with the homes ' is made very effectively. Through these agencies the parents are fully informed Seventeen concerning the need of citizenship training, in which the home as well as the school needs to help. (d) Systematic Budget-Making. Saving, Giving, Spending. A large number of students contribute systematically eacli week to their bank fund, and to the phil¬ anthropic fund, which is divided alternately from week to week between the Near East Relief (foreign), and the Salvation Army (home). (e) Health. The introduction of intra-mural sports has increased the num¬ ber of students who partake in physical sports bv over two hundred per cent. Limited facilities, instructional force and time, have been the only limitations. Gym¬ nasium space was engaged at the Hattie Barwell Settlement gymnasium and at the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium. Instructors have given freely of their time beyond the limit of their regular teaching program. Girl intra-mural groups have just been organized in Basketball; also in other competitive games. None of these are ex¬ hibition activities; no games are played with other schools. (f) Leisure Time Activities. During one hour in the middle of the day, the regular academic work is interrupted by the following activities ; The Relaxation and Play hour in the gymnasium is given to Seniors on Monday, Juniors on Tuesday and Sophomores on Wednesday; Life Interest and Hobby groups consisting of, Camera Club, Art in Architecture group, Shop Management group and similar groups are formed on Thursday. On this day all Seniors meet for a Conference in Fundamentals. On Friday an Assembly period for all Senior School students is set aside for high grade lectures. On Monday during the time the Seniors are in the gymnasium, the Juniors and Sophomores have a Student Assembly, during which programs of various kinds are put through by student committees; during the second semester, the various departments of the school put on programs illustrating the work of the department, partly to acquaint all the school with the work of the depart¬ ments, and partly to assist students in making better choices of studies for the com¬ ing semester. (g) A Men’s Faculty Club and a Women’s Faculty Club are active adminis¬ trative co-ordinating agencies. They minister to the social needs of the groups, and problems of education are discussed in the business meetings; frequently too, groups of business men, such as lawyers and doctors are invited in for a social and confer¬ ence evening. (h) Leadership Training. In the Student Council, in the Shops, in the De¬ bate Groups, and through the “W” list, the qualities of leadership are given an opportunity for expression and training. II. OUR SCHOOL TOMORROW (a) As our educational needs grow, more units of the quadrangle will be built. The next units will be the gymnasium, swimming pool, dressing rooms, and showers for both boys and girls, and the auditorium group including the auditorium proper, the central library, the central office with a board room and other confer¬ ence rooms, that can be used for special recitation rooms for testing and aiding stu¬ dents; the dental clinic and first aid and health rooms will also be included in this group. Added cafeteria facilities, recitation rooms and an expansion of the vocation¬ al unit now being completed, are additions that will follow soon. (b) The course of study and the curriculum will be completed after trial and re-adjustment based on experience. All courses will be worked out through the graded assignment plan, with variations to meet the needs of the courses. A diag¬ nosis department will be established. Through the work of this department, it is hoped to reduce the number of failures considerably, and so one hundred per cent pro- Eighteen motion will be brought about approximately. The try-out courses will develop into in-and-out and trade courses. The evening school for adults, especially in the prac¬ tical subjects, will soon find its place in the system. An industrial community is very much in need of such supplementary educational opportunities. 1 o stimulate interest in scholarship and fine craftsmanship, the school awards a craftsmanship shield to the Senior who ranks highest in the following: love of work, perfection in work and service. A division of the National Honor Soeietv may someday be established in our school. The carnation will give way to the golden key which symbolizes the goal of the diligent capable worker. (c) The Health and Play Activities will be further expanded through the pur¬ chase by the Board of additional land to enlarge the Present “W” field. A football field, baseball diamond, hockey field, and tennis courts, running track and field house , will provide physical training for every boy and girl in school. The intra-mural sports will be extended until every able-bodied boy and girl in school is in some sport all the year ’round. The courses in dramatics, public speaking, and debate will be further extended. Ihe new Junior Auditorium which is just being completed, will enable us to give all groups wishing dramatic training an opportunity to develop this most important talent. The Music groups too will have a better opportunity to give their programs than has been possible in the past. The band, consisting of forty members, makes a very creditable showing, but in a school of our size we should have a band of one hundred. This is a possible goal in two years. In this Auditorium a modern radio set will be installed. The programs for schools will probably be given next year, during one hour of the day. When suitable material is being broadcasted, the school will be able to “listen-in” on it at this hour. (d) The next step in organization will, no doubt, be the Junior High School in all the township schools, including the seventh and eighth grades of the elementary schools, and the upper groups of the rural schools. Just how the Junior Schools will be fully articulated with the present system, will depend on the legislation that can be secured in the next few years. Some type of organization which includes this type of school, must come if our schools are to remain progressive and up-to-date. Junior High School work is now being given to the Freshman group; it is necessary, however, to extend this work and this program to the seventh and eighth grades of the elementary schools in order to give them the benefit of a modern course of study and the benefits of the Junior High School organization. (e) It is hoped that the Parent-Teacher Association which now meets once a year, at the time of the Educational Outlook activities in the spring, will expand into a larger organization that will meet at least once every two months. In the years to come the agencies now at work on the enlarged program for our schools will produce a better and finer system of education, and so make a worthy contribution to a better and greater Waukegan. It is worthwhile to note again: “The government, the art, the industry, the cul¬ ture, the spirit of a great people, are in the hearts of the people, not in its wealth, its power, its buildings, nor in any other material things. The economic power of a people must be controlled not to create wealth, but to make people happy. This happiness lies in the understanding of the meaning of life and not in mere possession of the material things of life. Serenity of spirit is a higher and more satisfying end of life than comfort of body.” May the Quadrangle Towers give us all an inspiration to have courage, and give our best in the interest of this kind of education, for the youth of greater Waukegan. M ay “W” spirit never waver in this worthy endeavor. Nineteen Twenty T wenty. Waukegan Township Higli School District, otherwise known as School District No. 119, Lake County, Illinois, was created under a Special Act of the Legislature of the State of Illinois, in force July 1, 1905. The first meeting of the Board of Education of the newly created district, was held on July 18, 1905. Under the provisions of the 1905 Act, the President and members of the Board ot Education of The Waukegan City School District, ap¬ pointed by the Mayor of the City of Waukegan, became ex-officio members of the Board ot Education of A aukegan Township High School District, and the members so appointed, with a member of the Board of Directors of School No. 63, (the north district of North Chicago), continued to function as a High School Board of Educa¬ tion until April, 1921, when the district organized under the general school law of Illinois. At the time the last bond issue of $225,000 was offered for sale in 1920, the legality of the organization of the district was questioned. The Legislature of 1921, however, enacted a Law validating all of the proceedings had and taken by the High School Board of Education from 1905 to that date, and directed in what man- ner the Board of Education should be elected. On May 3, 1921, the Board of Education organized under the general school law ot Illinois. A President, elected for one year, and twelve members, four of whom were elected for one year, four for two years, and four for three years, consti¬ tuted the first Board. A President and four members of the Board of Education are elected each year, the election being held on the second Saturday of April. The senior high school building was completed in 1910, and cost approximately $132,000.00. Two bond issues were voted to cover the cost of the senior building: one of $85,000, August 1 , 1909, and one of $20,000, August 1 , 1910. The junior high school building was completed in 1921, and a bond issue of $225,000 was voted to cover the cost of completing and equipping the junior building. The total assessed valuation of all property in Waukegan Township: High School District is.. The district may issue bonds to 5% of such valuation, or.. The total bonded indebtedness of the district at this date is. The district may issue bonds in addition to above.

SCrllrr As the stalwart oaks tow r er above tlie surrounding forest, so do a few per¬ sons in each community loom above the rest, in promoting the civic, educational, and moral w r elfare of the community. One who has watched the growth and advancement of Waukegan during the last four years, realizes that a leading spirit in the accomplishments of things worth while, has been Superintendent Paul G. W. Keller. During the years of his apprenticeship in teaching and mastering the de¬ tails of school organization and administration, Mr. Keller, by careful reading and study along the lines of his profession, has gradually crystallized for him¬ self a working educational philosophy, which has vitalized all of his work. Be¬ lieving that education stands for the higher evolution of both the individual and the race, he has relegated to the proper place in the educational scheme many of the details of administration and instruction, and has not succumbed to the dull fruitless routine so deadening in administrative work. As an educational leader, not only has Mr. Keller received excellent train¬ ing and experience, but he has developed those personal qualities so indispen¬ sable in a leader. He is honest and square; he is possessed of a high sense of personal honor and endowed with a sense of proportion which enables him to see things in their proper relationships. By his large knowledge of the details and processes of school work, gained through years of apprenticeship, by the guiding educational philosophy which he has built up for himself, and with the personal qualities of educational states¬ manship, Mr. Keller has, during his stay in Waukegan, steered a straight course. With an intelligent understanding of the industrial work about him, with broad human sympathies, he has been able to get things done. One may say of Mr. Keller as has been said of another modern educator, he is “one who marks new trails, and has the courage and conviction of mind and heart necessary to main¬ tain his beliefs in new paths.” 1 he progressive educational programs so well started will need time for fruition, but eventually these constructive, forward looking policies will prove of inestimable value, and of far-reaching significance to the community.

This is known as the six-three-three plan of organization. Since the township high school organization in Illinois does not as yet make under the law to include the seventh and eigh t grades of the elementary school, the only lias been organized with the Junior High School objectives in mind. Not have been developed, but the new building units added this year, especially the bly, will make it possible to develop additional objectives. The chief objective developed to date, is that of giving try-out courses in Science Manual Arts. In fact, the try-out method seeks to direct pupils in finding themselves their various traits, and making possible intelligent choices of a special sort which may be found in the Senior High School, ,or in the higher educational Educational and vocational guidance are a part of this program, and are being developed in our school. In this period, students begin to make those basic social ad¬ justments so necessary for a successful life. These are fostered in our Junior School and more definitely developed and fixed in the Senior High School. Senior School— The Senior School, which includes the tenth, eleventh and twelfth years, offers its courses under two major objectives: one looking toward entrance to university courses in law, medi¬ cine, engineering, and the professions in general; the other looking toward business, the shops, trades, and immediate entrance upon life work without university preparation. The univer¬ sity preparatory courses are now fully developed. The courses leading to life work direct, are in process of more complete adjustment. The try-out period of the Junior School enables a student to make a more definite choice concerning his life work. The Senior School enables him to lav more definite foundations for this woik. Educational and vocational guidance in both Junior and Senior schools will eventually be developed more fully. These are essential factors in a modern school. Vocational School— The N ocational School is being organized for the purpose of providing a special type of education, for the young people of ‘this community who cannot continue with regular high school work. Social and economic pressure, desire to earn money, ill health, and dislike for formalized academic work, cause the largest percent of our boys and girls to quit school at an early age. These people have been going into the world with little or no preparation for battling even the common problems of life. The vocational school is intended to con¬ tribute to the productive efficiency and social betterment of this class of future citizens. Waukegan’s vocational school is now in a stage of primary development. At the present time the principal work organized under the vocational classification, is embodied in the eral continuation school—a school for working boys and girls, under seventeen years of who are not attending any other educational institution. Aattendance at this school quired for a minimum time of eight hours per week. The instruction given is genera ' ' Informal class-room work in English, civics, mathematics, science, hygiene, shop and hiinie- makmg is intended to supplement the previous preparation of the individual, and to be a potent factor in building real high grade men and women, instead of specifically trained craftsmen and artisans.

Olsen, at Waukegan Township High School, Friday, March 21, 1924. W1 len life’s choicest dreams are shattered, we ponder deeply, wonder and in¬ quire the reason why. And as we wonder there comes to us the answer from on high from the Father who loves us all and knows our innermost thoughts so well. This answer is: The choicest dreams of earth are but the shadows of the realities of the life that is to come. They are but glimpses into the windows of that heaven which the spirit knows now and then. Youth in its springtime is the dream period of life; hopes are high, the soul is trustful of men, strength knows no limitation, love’s generosity gives all for a dream, an ideal realized. This old world would be a drab place indeed, were it not for the pristine loveliness of youth. Sadness creeps into the world of youth when the promises of love and trust are crushed by the crass matter-of-fact world of men. Would that youth might die in youth, and so conserve its beauty and sweetness ! Would that sorrow never came to the world grown up! No, these wishes are not true to God’s great plan for men and women. Nature in her simplicity teaches this. Springtime and blossomtime are the beauty cycles of all creation ; but the world would starve if all life ceased at blossom-time. This time is the promise-time of God’s great handiwork. Fruit, the crown of reward of all effort of nature and man, is the goal of all labor and the charm, the adventure of youth, lie in the promise of what can be. Whatever youth promises—good or ill—depends upon the forces of the school, of the home, of the church, of the community, which play upon the young lives. None of us can escape the responsibility of influencing youth. May we, teachers, parents, citizens, in a spirit of humility and understanding, do our best to guide this trustful spirit placed in our care. Can we not then be happy, even though a loved one who just recently walked in our midst has gone ? Can we not take renewed courage in the task to which our lives are dedicated because of the sacrifice that is made? Can we not see that this noble life is not lost? Is it not true that in quality it could never have been finer; also, that nothing is more precious than the spirit of youth? That he precedes us in the period of youth, witli so much promise of good, but reminds us that time has no mean¬ ing in the eternities of the life beyond; a thousand years is but a day to Him wbo called the one we mourn. Think of the concourse of the great spirits that have gone before. Contemplate the glory of communion with these spirits. Think of the re¬ joicing over there in the thought that this cold, hard world of ours can still produce young men like him whom we honor today and, lest we forget in our youth, let us think about the way we are playing our part here. The one we love and honor today has made his record, he received his reward; he ran the good race of life and won even in youth. Shall we not devote much thought ta our plans of life? Shall we not see to it that God has a part in the planning? Shall the glory of this hour of sorrow not make us bow in humility and engender in our hearts, the hope that some day we too may be worthy to enter the home beyond the stars, as is the one who leads us now in spirit. If he could speak to us today, I reverently believe his wish, his hope, his thought would be to you, to me, to all of us, that we make the most of youth and life, bv growing daily in the things that are of the spirit.

Two hundred and fifty pilgrims, their eyes alight with the hope and vision of achievement, set out on the long and arduous path toward knowledge. Resolutely they turned their faces to the East, to the rising sun, and, breathing deeply of the fragrant breezes toward whose source they were to advance, commenced their task. 0 Of guides they had two score, prophets who had already made their first pilgrim¬ age and were returned to sing the praise of the land whence they came and to lead others there. The guides extolled the magnificence and enchantment to be found at their journey’s end, and the pilgrims quickened their pace. They travelled steadily and well, meeting and overcoming many obstacles to their progress. 0 These obstacles showed them the need of organization, and on October sixth, they held a meeting in which they appointed as leaders, certain of the band, by name: Theodore Berehtold, Dean Banta, Cecil Stripe, Raymond Strang. Thus strengthened, the pilgrim band resumed its journey. Presently they came to a huge cleft in the ground, dividing the trail upon which they marched. Across the abyss was a single bridge, wide enough for only one, and guarded from a position in the center by a group of giants. (J “Those,” explained the guides, “are the Semester Tests. You must cross swords with certain of them, who, if you prove proficient and worthy, will allow you to go your wav.” 0 And each pilgrim advanced alone upon the precarious bridge, and struggled with the giants. A few who had not obeyed the guides by practicing for such en¬ counters were overcome, and remained at the bridge to recover of their wounds and to prepare for a second attempt. The greater part of the band reached the other side in safety, and continued their journey. 0 For many days the travellers pushed eastward, gathering knowledge as they went. As the hot days of summer overtook them, they wearied and became rest¬ less under the continual strain. Again they came to a narrow place in the trail, likewise guarded by Tests. As before, most of them mastered the guards and were admitted into a beautiful valley beyond. 0 “Here,” said the guides, “we may rest.” 0 The caravan halted, and the pilgrims laid them down and rested on the soft grass. 0 After a long wait the guides called the group together again and they resumed the eastward way, with more eagerness than before. They had gone but a short distance when they decided to elect new leaders. Those selected were Dean Banta, Eleanor Jolley, Alice Kennedy. They lingered awhile to entertain and cheer another band, which had just commenced the pilgrimage, for they remem¬ bered a similar kindness performed for them by a caravan which had preceded them. 0 The march was less difficult now, for the crusaders had become used to the in¬ cessant labor and their knowledge and ability to cope with situations was steadily if somewhat slowly increasing. The eastern breeze was stronger and more con¬ stant, and it was becoming easier to keep the proper direction. Several times Thirty-se% en were enemies encountered, and some of the travelers succumbed, for there were still those in the band who were careless. The most dangerous opponents whom they met were another group of Semester Tests, much harder to defeat than their brothers who had previously challenged the advance of the party. But the pil¬ grims too were better fitted for combat and almost all of them passed safely. CJ The journey continued, interrupted at times bv trials and hard fights, or by mer¬ ciful acts to those less fortunate—for many such were in need—and as the sea¬ sons changed, and the sun shone more brightly on the now tiresome trail, the pil¬ grims felt the need of rest. Again they fought with the guardians of a pleasant valley, proved their worth, and were allowed to stay. (X As the frost approached, the pilgrims gathered once more at the call of their guides, and, after a short march eastward, chose as new leaders: Gunnor Peter¬ son, Helen Mitchell and Beatrice Cook. (X The knowledge seekers were used to the daily toil now, and did not complain so much when the goal seemed far and the way to it well nigh impassable. (X Ever onward swept the throng, less in number than originally but still of good size, stopping for nothing, lending a friendly hand to the fallen or gratefully re¬ ceiving aid from others—but always onward. Representatives of the Test family again tried them and cut down a few, but the majority laughed and went their way. (X It came about that Gunnor Peterson, who was readier than most in scholarly pursuits, was admitted to the ranks of the crusade of 1923, which was nearer the rising sun. Thereupon the knights of the crusade of 1924, undaunted by the misfortune, chose George H. Smith to take his place, and marched on. (X On a certain day the members of the crusade invited those of the Senior band to a huge merry-making. And the pilgrims feasted and danced together. Follow¬ ing their previous custom, they ceased their labors and rested throughout the summer months. (X With the falling of the leaves the pilgrim band was again on its way. The east¬ ern breeze was strong now, and it gave new energy and heightened enthusiasm to the wanderers as it whipped past their faces. The path was rockier, and it began to rise as they approached the mountain which had long been visible on the horizon. With Laddie Koziol, Eleanor Jolley and Denzil Arnold as newly elected chiefs, the mighty company, unawed by the majesty of the slope before them, moved onward toward the glowing East. (X The crusaders that came afterward, follo wing custom, gave the band of 1924 a great feast, and everyone was merry for a day. (X As they advanced, their way was twice barred by the biggest and fiercest Tests of the entire journey; and as they passed the last of these, they beheld a huge plain. They sat them down and waited. Presently a brilliant light shone on the plain, and in the East arose a great sheet of fire, which, as they watched, re¬ solved itself into nine great letters, which formed a word. (X The crusaders of 1924, after four years of almost constant toil, had completed the first part of their journey. CX They realized the vastness of knowledge. George Morris, ’24.

Realization Fifty-four The other travelers on this trodden trail Must needs await their turn to conquer and assail. -ilnuinr (Class ijiatnry The class whose praises I sing is that of ’25. As Freshmen, we were the first to enroll in the Junior School, and, I am sure, if the Faculty had been given the privilege of choosing the class on which to bestow this honor, they would have chosen no other. For what class can point to such a record as ours! How verdant we were in those first days is a secret. How this one and that one rus hed up and down the stairs in a vain search for class rooms, how youthful the boys looked in short trousers, how innocent the girls were with all the signs of child¬ hood, except a “big dolly,” perhaps, how some brought the teacher apples and flowers, because it was a habit, are all secrets which I cannot honorably tell. Much excitement heralded the approaching Freshman Party. The Freshman party! This, and only this, was the subject of our conversation and the theme of those slyly passed “notes.” We may smile now, but it was fun to play “Drop the Handkerchief” and “Pussy want a Corner”—only we didn’t want to go home at nine o’clock. Soon the Freshman year was over. How quickly flew the days of our youth ! The next September we were Sophomores. Like all the Sophs before us, we trod the well-beaten paths of “Silas Marner,” Julius Caesar,’ and all the other books written for the sole purpose of taxing young people’s minds. Then, as has al¬ ways been the custom, we stopped to invite the humble Freshmen to a party. 1 he entertainment suited the occasion. The program, planned to amuse the “children, was enjoyed bv the condescending Sophomores as well as by the “little Freshmen. After such recreation, we returned to our studies with renewed vigor if not af¬ fection. No sooner had we become engrossed in our lessons than signs of spring be¬ gan to appear. The birds, flowers, and warm weather were not the only indications. A number of our worthy friends were seized with that age old malady termed “spring fever.” Some early victims were “Andy,” “Chuck,” and Crellis. It was not long then, until we were required to draw together the few threads of knowledge picked up during the year, add more by burning the midnight oil, and try to prove to friend teacher,” that we were wise enough to be Juniors. We must have manifested our wisdom, since most of us were proud to bear the name of a “Junior, the next fall. Fall brought with it the Football season. The Juniors who represented us were George Macklin, Fingal Pescator, and Captain Plummer. And, then, close on the heels of Football came Basketball. Everybody was proud of our team—the Junior players on the Lightweight team, George Lundin, C larence McIntosh, Astor Olsen, Lester Stang, Charles Whyte and Captain “Yuteh” Whyte; the Heavyweight team. Jack Barrett, John Doyle, George Macklin, Bob Plummer, and Captain Cote—every one a Junior! Reams of paper could be filled with the praises of our team, but the hands of the clock go ’round and more history is made. The most important social event of the first semester was the Junior sleighride party. In the second semester, the Junior Prom was a red letter day. One might better say, “period in history,” since, it was prepared for, weeks and weeks ahead of time, in order that it might be better than the best, and was looked back to for days and days and days after the night. Almost Seniors, our heads swelling with pride, we received our rings, the first ones to bear the seal of Waukegan. Fern Hoover.

In the second week following its arrival a meeting for the purpose of electing class officers was called by Mr. Zimmerman. With Clinton Burnett our Freshman Secretary and Treasurer presiding, we elected William Crawford, President ; Jessie Strang, Vice- President and William Ganster, Secretary and Treasurer. In our first engagement with the six-weeks exams, our ranks were strongly assailed, but like a hickory stick they were merely bent and not broken. In the en¬ gagement with the formidable exams we were more successful. At the first meeting called by our newly elected officers a motion was made by Clinton Burnett to challenge the Freshmen to a contest in selling Annual Tickets. This was unanimously accepted by the class. The challenge was officially announced during the mass meeting for the Annual by our president, William Crawford. Mr. Keller placed the School Spirit Cup as a goal for the competitors. In the first week the Freshmen led us by a wide margin. Our class officers gave talks encouraging 11 s to pledge ourselves to buy tickets for the Annual. Over fifty percent of the class responded. The fight waged hot for the next two weeks, but the Freshmen held the lead, and on the closing date of the contest Mr. Keller increased our anxiety by an¬ nouncing, at the beginning of the assembly, that the score was very close. Several of our members thinking the Sophomores might be behind, rushed to the desk and purchased tickets, in the hope of helping along the cause. At four-fifteen P. M., January 18, the official announcement was made by Mr. Keller, that the final score was sixty percent to fifty-seven and seven-tenths percent, with the “Sophs” victorious. The School Spirit Cup was presented to our president, who, after giving a short speech, returned it to Mr. Keller, to have our name engraved upon it. F ollowing this contest we met and decided on the amount of our class dues, and the date of the Sophomore party. We had several members of our class on both the heavyweight and lightweight basketball squads. Two Sophomores were members of the valiant squad that ac¬ complished the winning of the Chicago District Championship. We have been well represented in all activities, including Student Council, Girls’ Rooter Club, Girl Reserves, Debate, Intramural Sports, Band and Dramatics. William Crawford, ’ 26 .

Sixty-four Sixt -frJe iFrrahntan (ElaBB ifiatnry One evening in the early part of the fall of 1923, Superintendent Paul G. W. Keller, taking a rest from the speech he was planning, went to his radio and tuned in Station S. E. P. T. This is what he heard: “A ery early on the second day of September, 1923, a group of boys and girls were seen crowding around the doors of the Junior building. After a seemingly endless period of wait¬ ing, at about a quarter of nine, the janitor opened the doors and the boys and girls flocked into the building. They gazed with a certain feeling of awe, and perhaps a little fear upon the interior of the school. During the first month, these freshies were seen hurrying up and down the halls, programs in hand, looking at the number on this door and the number on that door. At last they found the right room. After entering the room they counted so many seats to the right, so many seats to the left, and after great commotion, all sat up straight and attentive. “During the first month of school, the freshmen became very, very wise. They could find Room 21 in the Junior building without going to the third floor; the y became versed in cafe¬ teria etiquette; they learned that yellow slips were not rewards of merit, and they even knew where to find the Junior office.” Mr. Keller was now interrupted by a telephone call from an industrious freshman, who just had to find out whether there would be an assembly the next day, so that he would know whether to prepare his science lesson. Meanwhile the program changed and Station O. C. T. was broadcasting as follows: “About the second week in October, a long list of names appeared on the bulletin board. At this the students gazed with bewilderment and wonder; some thought it was the honor roll—it proved to be the failure list.”. 1 he next station was N. O. . It was at this point that the different classes and clubs had their pictures taken. All the girls wore their best, and the boys—well, they seemed to have patent-leather hair. When the Student Council members were elected, the honored ones were: Cecil Marsh, Dorothea Richardson, Marion Woods. Dean Bacon, Gladys De Yoe, Eliza¬ beth Osgood, Francis Foley, Dorothy Marie Whyte, John Price and Robert Olsen. A great event for the freshies was the Thanksgiving vacation. It was at Station D. E. C. that the freshman with the upper classmen were greeted by Santa Claus. Many of the members received gifts, but many more were disappointed. Paid wondered why he didn’t get a drum, and Walter did hope that he would get a horn. Members of Mrs. McLean’s English class gave the Christmas play.Bird’s Christmas Carol.” This play¬ let was a success and enjoyed by those who saw it. In the High School Annual Contest, the freshmen certainly gave the Sophomores a hard race for the silver loving cup. The Christmas vacation was the next important event, and all greeted it with much joy and enthusiasm.” From Station J. A. N. the following was heard: “After two weeks of vacation, the pupils began in earnest, preparing for the semester exams three weeks away. What a studious lot of pupils there were during this period; boys and girls, loaded down with books, were to be seen on every street. Nine members of the freshman class received four nineties on their report cards for the semester. Brush, the great magician, came to the high school, and with his tricks of wonder, greatly amused our class— especially Cecil Marsh.” At station F. E. B., a dance given by the Student Council was largely attended by the freshmen. Charles Helander, a member of our class, furnished part of the musical program. Many members of the band are students of the class of ' 27. The following class officers were elected February 29th: Cecil Marsh, President; Elizabeth Osgood, Vice-President; Dorothy Whyte, Treasurer, and William Reaume, Secretary. Arvid Soderman, a freshman, accompanied the basketball team to the tournament, where he acted as a substitute. At the end of this freshman year although we look at the Brown Cliff, the Gray and Whyte Waters of the Brooks, and the dark Woods, we press onward toward the Gold Starr in the West. We have Hurd the call of the Future and Will go forward. Genevieve Schi.osslek ’27 Gwendolyn Scott ’27 Arvin DeYoe ' 27 J1 , B - - lf L -ITT” - Sixtjhsix Row 1. (Upper).

Therefore the Manual Training course is so arranged as to utilize the tilings with which the child comes in contact with outside of school, as wdl as in the classroom, in guiding him into new fields of knowledge. The aims of the first year woodwork course in the Junior High School are as follows: 1. Skill in the use of tools. 2. A knowledge of materials and their uses. 3. A knowledge of arrangement, proportion, color, and design. 4. Skill in co-operating with others. 5. Habit of making plans for the things that are done. 6. Skill in one’s work sufficient to make possible the greatest enjoyment in the performance of it. Since a large majority of the students who choose the Manual Arts Course have had no previous training, it is necessary to start all students at the beginning, and then to progress rapidly. The first year Manual Training Course consists of one semester of straight woodwork and one semester of mechanical drawing. This gives all students an opportunity to get a good foundation upon which to base their Manual Training choice the following year. The first year work is closely correlated with the second year’s work. Sixt -nine (Left to Right). Mary Wieehecki, Viola Sivula. Gwendolyn Moore, Elizabeth Johnson. Alma Hu- lin.

Ijnmi ' iErnuomira at tljp dluninr rhool As practically one-half of the girls studying home Economics in the Junior School have had no previous instruction in cooking and sewing, the course has been made as broad as possible for Freshman girls. The chief aims of the course are: 1. To place the study of Home Economics on an educational basis. 2. To give the girls knowledge which will make them more efficient homemakers. 3. To develop an appreciation for artistic and appropriate dress for a High School Girl. 4. To teach, develop, and encourage health habits. 5. To teach the student how to select, prepare and serve some of the simpler foods. Instruction concerning foods and clothing is given every day for two periods, or two full hours for one semester each. The clothing work consists of simple hand and machine sewing, with some textile work; the last garment made is a dress. The food work consists of theory and practical work as well as meal serving. Each group serves a breakfast; always the food value of the dishes prepared is kept in mind. Besides the food and clothing work, a course of six weeks in house-planning has been introduced, and has proven very successful. In this course the girls draw plans for a six room bungalow and, by the use of various furniture catalogues, furnish each room completely. Here an attempt is made to try to demonstrate to the girls the difference between good and bad taste in Home furnishings. By means of an Honor Roll the girls have been encouraged to make use of their training at home. Cleanliness and personal appearance have been encouraged by “Keep Clean Contests.” A Home Economics Club has been organized whereby the girls are trained to give demon¬ strations, talks, and various programs; thus the social side of their life is emphasized. The members of the Club have also studied “Vocations For Girls” and some interesting speakers have been secured. Ten of the D. S. Girls served a four course Valentine dinner to thirty of the faculty wom¬ en. This was planned, prepared, and served entirely by the girls themselves. At present the course is elective, but when more space and more teachers are available, Home Economics may become a required subject for every girl at the Junior School. Katherine Ladd. Seventy alu ' Humor (Enntmmial Uppartutrut In this departent we begin our training for business, by giving our boys and girls the foundation work for the years that are to follow. Many of them unable to take advantage of a four year high school course, must get a training of practical value not only in the job which they secure, but also in their own individual life. The Elemental Commercial work includes handwriting and business forms, spelling, an d typewriting. That handwriting has a commercial value in all work, is impressed upon the pupils through the study of well penned articles, and of illegible writing and signatures. Then through thoroughness, character of work, and the honesty and loyalty which we put into our task, we make our handwriting a real asset in seeking a position. During the first semester of this year, fifty pupils received Certificates of Handwriting. In connection with handwriting and business forms, we give a brief course in elementary banking—outlining very thoroughly what is required of a bank page or office boy. The general purpose of our course in typewriting is to train pupils to become accurate touch typists. The work is largely individual and is altered and intensified, according to the progress of the pupil. The work in spelling is made up of the words which occur with the greatest relative fre¬ quency in business correspondence and business literature. As soon as the pupils have mastered the keyboard of the typewriter, all work in spelling is typed. In commercial arithmetic we aim to establish in the mind of every pupil the standards of accuracy and efficiency. It is a training which creates desirable methods of thought achieve¬ ment and conduct. Should the boys and girls, because of economic conditions leave school, they can, with this foundation, become good, useful American citizens, an honor to themselves, and to the com¬ munity in which they live. “A little learning is a dangerous thing; Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring; Their shallow draughts intoxicate the brain, And drinking largely sobers us again.”—Pope. Olive Livingston, Director of Department Seventh-one ulljr (Hafttma The High School is fortunate in having a modern and well equipped cafeteria. Here the students and teachers may obtain a full, well-balanced meal, or may procure soup, milk or cocoa to supplement the cold lunch brought from home. No one is required to buy at the cafeteria, though every one is expected to spend the lunch hour there. The patronage has grown steadily, until now there are about six hundred served each day. The policy is to serve the best, well-cooked, wholesome food, at a price to cover only the cost of the food and the service. The cafeteria is solely for the health and comfort of its patrons, not for profit. Luxuries, such as candy, are sold at regular retail prices, to cover losses on more important foods. All menus are governed by the principles of nutrition and dietetics as applied to the high school age, and nothing appears on the counter which would in any way be harmful. The menu is changed daily in part; some of the most popular dishes are served each day. The school cafeteria not only adds to the convenience of the students, but it al¬ so contributes much to their physical well-being. Hot, nourishing food at mid-day is infinitely better than a cold lunch, and is more stimulating. It is common knowledge among educators that cafeterias and good student health go hand in hand. The kind of food eaten determines to a considerable degree the amount of physical and mental endurance one has. Many things affect our minds and bodies, but it is a fact that the boy or girl who eats a sufficient quantity of the right kind of food will make a better stud:nt. Ida Sims. ®lir library In the attempt to adapt education to the needs of modern democratic life, new methods of teaching are being developed. Frequently after the presentation of a topic by the teacher, the pupil is turned loose with books. This stimulates an intellectual curiosity that must be satisfied by the library. The modern high school is becoming more and more dependent upon books and sources of information other than the text book. The old time book reverence is not passing; it is only changing; the new reverence is ability to use books. Educators are recognizing the library as a most essential laboratory because directly or indirectly it sup¬ plements every course in the curriculum. The library should be not only a place for obtaining facts, not merely a training school in the best methods for securing information, not simply a laboratory for special topic work; but it should be a place of inspiration and recreation as well. At the Junior School, wise foresight has been shown in providing adequate and attractive equipment for the library. By the aid of student assistants who help the Teacher-librarian, it has been possible to keep the ' library open all day for reading and reference. It is desirable to have a full time librarian, for if a library is a vital part of a school, co-ordinating with all departments, it is because a live librarian manipulates it. The kind of service she renders, determines the measure of the library as an educational asset. Training, experience, wide knowledge of books, bibliography of high school subjects and human interest in pupils are all qualities that should be possessed by a true librarian. Instruction in the use of the library is given as a part of the English work, not as a train¬ ing for library makers, but as a training for library users. The development of right habits and attitudes is of vital concern to all who are interested in the future citizen. The best a school can do is to give its pupils a start in the right direc¬ tion, to foster habits that will lead to greater power and capacity in the years to come. The boy or girl leaving high school must understand that life is a process of education and he alone succeeds who is mentally alert and informed of the best that his competitors and asso¬ ciates are doing. He must know where and how to get information. No one agency of the high school can do more in this direction than the library. Ruuy Kirk McLean. Seventh-five GJlip Unrational § rijonl One of the most important progressive steps that has been taken by Waukegan Township Secondary Schools in recent years, has resulted in the formation of the vocational school. On account of the great need for a vocational type of education in this community of intense industrial activity, the first step has been taken to organ¬ ize a school whose aims and purposes are directed toward the social and economic betterment of our working boys and girls, who are denied the privileges of regular school instruction. While the present work of the vocational school is greatly res¬ tricted, the future will inevitably result in a full or part-time vocational program for every boy and girl in Waukegan township, under the age of eighteen years, who may be in need of this particular type of training. Our progress is in the direction of a more democratic school system for our young people of today, who are to be our men and women of tomorrow. The present work of the vocational school is confined almost wholly to the contin¬ uation type—one of the many different types of vocational education. It serves those people between the ages of 14 and 17 years who have been forced by social or econ¬ omic pressure to leave the regular schools and to go to work. These juvenile work¬ ers are employed in and about the shops, stores, and factories of the city, and they come to school for a minimum time of eight hours per week. Their instruction during this period is intended to contribute to their social efficiency, not primarily through the development of vocational skills, but through the training in general cultural activities. The products of the school are to be men and women, instead of skilled artisans and housewives. Together with the practical subjects, English, mathematics, civics, science, and thrift are taught but not as they are presented in the regular Seventy-six school. The pupils are of secondary school age, but their days of labor are spent with grown-ups. The complexity of the problems arising from this combination of age and labor is not to be solved in the usual way. Infancy saddled with adult res- ponsibility is the complicating feature of the continuation school; it demands a spe¬ cial treatment that is common to neither elementary nor secondary full-time schools. The vocational school program is not confined solely to the shop and class room. In order to determine the needs of each particular pupil, and in order to establish a spirit of co-operation with the home, school and factory, each teacher is allotted a certain amount of time for out-of-school visitation. The value of this particular part of the program cannot he over-stated in terms of service to the individual, the family, the community and the nation. The school also has to emphasize its mission of Americanization. Because of the great numbers of foreign pupils in attendance, the responsibility of interpreting and explaining the ideals of Americanism, falls heavily upon the continuation school. It is interesting to note that this plan is being carried out of the school and into the homes by the pupils themselves, and by the teachers during their periods of visitation. The continuation part-time school is here to stay. It is not a “make-shift” as some people have stated. It is a particular type of school adapted to the needs of a portion of our adolescent population which never has been, or never could have been, served by the traditional ideals and methods of procedure of the full-time school. It is not here to supplant the well established full-time school, but to supplement it in the great scheme of modern education. This is also true regarding other types of vocational education. When our voca¬ tional school some day boasts of trade-preparatory and trade extension education, to¬ gether with general continuation education, we may be assured that these types are just as fundamental to our system as the old-time academic school has been; that they are just other steps in the direction of democratic education; that they are never to be given in preference to a broad general education but are intended primarily for that vast army of individuals who are quitting regular school every year; that they are nec¬ essary units in assuring us of a socially sound, morally straight and economically effi¬ cient citizenship. The new auto-mechanics shop and general drawing room is the first of a group of unit trade shops which are to face Victory Street, and which are eventually to house the complete vocational school. This shop has been specifically planned for the work that is to be accom¬ modated, and when it is completed, will be one of the best equipped and most modern auto¬ mechanic shops in this state. Seventy-seven Uoratinnal Iduip tErmumura The Vocational Home Economics Courses are organized to meet the needs of the girls of the community who, for a variety of reasons, cannot continue the regular high school work. A large proportion of these girls are working in factories and other business places of Waukegan, and North Chicago. Of all the young womanhood of today, these girls, perhaps, are in the greatest need of the training our Homemaking Courses give. Since the home is the center of all happiness and success in life, our work concerns itself in general with home problems, the social relationships between all members of the family, their duties and responsibilities, the proper management of the daily household tasks, wise buying and preparation of foods, the care and training of children, selection of materials, and clothing construction. Specific problems of the course have been determined by the homemaking teachers. The home of every girl in the Continuation School was visited by the teachers. The object of these visits was to study the needs of the girl, and bring about a closer relationship between home and homemaking courses. Mrs. W. N. Brinkman Petronella Stoevener Seventy-eight Slip fEmployrii Soys’ Qllub The Employed Boys’ Club has been formed for the purpose of affording the boys of the continuation school some opportunity for wholesome social life outside the school. Any employed boy under the age of seventeen years is eligible for member¬ ship in the club. The weekly meetings are held at the Y. M. C. A., and consist of a business meeting, and then a session of play in the gymnasium. In both work and play, the following purposes are upheld: 1. To guide each boy into useful vocation. 2. To provide good times—recreation that recreates. 3. To stress health and physical development. -Jk To create a sense of brotherhood for all. 5. To educate for proper enjoyment of life. 6. To cultivate the religious nature of each boy. 7. To help each boy place himself in his family and in the community.

Muehl and Assistant Coach Ralph D. Brown confronted with the same situation that had existed the previous year—only three let¬ ter men back, and a limited supply of green material from which to draw other players. From the very first it was evident that Waukegan’s team would be light, far too light to check successfully the advances of her heavier opponents. In view of this, an open, running attack was developed. Although this type of football worked well enough in the practice games, lack of weight soon told the story in the later Suburban Conference games. The crimson-jerseyed team from Lake View High, of Chicago, was Waukegan’s first op¬ ponent. The two met on “W” Field on Saturday, September 22, amid ideal weather conditions. During four quarters, the two elevens battled to and fro, Waukegan stemming valiantly the charges of their heavier aggressors, and the game ended in a 0-0 deadlock. For Waukegan, this game was most encouraging, and gave fans great expectations. On September 29, the team and a large number of followers invaded Kenilworth, to open the league schedule with New Trier. Waukegan’s defense here was impenetrable. New Trier had carried the ball to Waukegan’s one-foot line in a series of line attacks. For four downs, New Trier was unable to batter through the suddenly rejuvenated Waukegan defense, and after the players had disentangled themselves, the ball lacked four inches of gaining the touch¬ down for which hundreds of New Trier fans implored. Thus ended the first league game. The following week-end saw Waukegan and Evanston divide a double-header on “W.’ Field’ In a preliminary game, our lightweight team trounced Evanston 6 to 0. The heavy¬ weight clash was one of the sensational variety. The visitors scored early in the game, and at the third quarter led 20 to 0. The sidelines suddenly became active, as Plummer, “WV’ cap¬ tain, blocked a drop kick and raced 60 yards for the season ' s first touchdown. Then, smashing through the Evanston line, and snatching a ball as it left a halfback ' s hands, Plummer ran (� 5 yards for his second score, and fell exhausted across the line. Evanston won 20 to 12. Over confident, and not realizing the fighting spirit of their opponents, until the final quarter, Waukegan showed none of the form previously displayed, and lost a 12 to 0 game to Libertyville, the following week. Waukegan’s playing was ragged; the passing attack was woefully weak, and the entire team was “ off color.” Eighty -one Still more disastrous was the result of the Waukegan-Riverside struggle on October 20, on the latter’s field. Waukegan was handicapped by the absence of Captain Plummer, but the speedy southwestern team was not to be denied. Guest, Riverside’s captain and fullback, crashed through our defense for five touchdowns, and when Riverside’s scoring attacks finally ceased, Waukegan was the recipient of her worst defeat of the year. Riverside won 43 to 0. Traditions were upheld a week later when Deerfield scored her annual football triumph over Waukegan. Waukegan, although stopping the visitors in praise-worthy fashion at in¬ tervals, was clearly no match for the down shore team, and lost 31 to 0. The second lengthy trip of the season was made on November 3, when Coach Muelh’s eleven met Thornton at Harvey, Ill. Although outplaying Thornton in the first half, which closed 0-0, the Harvey team took new life when Anderson, a crippled regular and halfback, was injected into the fray. The newcomer scored a pair of touchdowns on long end runs, and the sout hern suburban team won over our north shore lads 14 to 0. Bloom opposed Waukegan in our final game on November 10, on “W” Field. One of the season ' s largest crowds was on hand to view the Purple and the Gold in its closing game. Bloom had scored 21 points to Waukegan’s 0 in the fourth period, and was jolted rather heavily when Plummer and Barrett suddenly crossed the visitor’s goal line for scores on blocked drop kicks. Bloom was victor 21 to 12 when the final whistle shrilled. To some, the recent season may seem disheartening, to others it is merely the beginning of a thorough rebuilding of our grid activities, and next year should see a more capable eleven on the field. The intramural schedule brought out great numbers of new men and from these, with the addition of the remaining regulars, will be molded the team of ' 24. Sick, one of our most aggressive taeklers and halfbacks, is the only player to graduate. Coming back next year are Robert Plummer, who was re-elected captain; Barrett and Mack- lin, ends; Pojunas and DeThorne, tackles; Lewis, Peters and Gray, guards; Doyle center; Crawford, quarterback; Pescator, halfback.

Ilpauyuiriglit SaBliPtbaU § paamt 1923-24 Waukegan during the past season was more fortunate than has usually been the the case. When Coach Willard L. Muehl issued his call for basketball candidates, there were included among the aspirants, five men who had been members of the heavy-weight squad the year previous, two of them regulars. With these five, headed by Captain Ray Cote, Coach Muehl went at his task of building the great machine that w on the Chicago District Championship, and lost only one out of 12 Suburban conference games. The first game was a practice clash against Antioch, which was won easily 28 to 8. On Saturday, December 15, Waukegan met her famous rival team from Kenosha, on the Waukegan floor, but Kenosha was no match for the big Waukegan team and lost a rather one-sided game by a score of 21 to 4. Eighth-three A week later Waukegan, minus the services of Barrett and Doyle, lost a bitter game to Lake View, of Chicago. This, with the addition of only one other, was the only defeat sustained during the regular playing season. Lake View won 15 to 13. The Alumni team took a 23 to 8 defeat from the heavyweight squad, while Keno¬ sha was handed another tripping by Waukegan, this time 22 to 5, and Waukegan was ready to begin her 1924 Suburban League basketball schedule. On January 11, New Trier was on the Waukegan floor to meet the Purple and Gold in the conference curtain-raiser. Waukegan, in a close game outseored New Trier 11 to 5, and thus started the year with a score on the right side of the ledger. LaGrange a week later furnished Waukegan one of the most breath-holding con¬ tests of the year. Coming from behind a 7 to 2 lead at the half, Waukegan in a sen¬ sational rally wrested victory from the sturdy LaGrange men, and finally won out 17 to 10. A great celebration after the game marked the victory. Evanston was next on the list. This team is the only conference team that can boast of a triumph over Waukegan. Coach Muehl’s men at one time had as high as a 9 to 2 lead, but the margin gradually diminished when Evanston stormed Wauke¬ gan’s basket in the last quarter and dropped a field goal in the final ten seconds that gave Waukegan its only league defeat. Evanston 10, Waukegan 9. It was in a fighting mood that Waukegan again faced Evanston the following Saturday at Waukegan. Here Evanston was bewildered by the fast floorwork of Waukegan, and lost 21 to 9, in a game in which Waukegan’s lead was never threat¬ ened. Deerfield, Waukegan’s old enemy was the next to fall before the smooth team play and scoring of our five. With Cote going at his strongest, and sinking six baskets, Deerfield found it impossible to check the big Waukegan team. Deerfield lost 26 to 9 on her home floor. Thornton gave Waukegan little opposition when the Harvey team met Wauke¬ gan here on the last day of January. Captain Cote in this game scored his highest number of baskets for any one game, eight ringers being registered on his record. Waukegan swamped Thornton 35 to 4, and took revenge for a football defeat sus¬ tained in the fall at the hands of the same school. Bloom, with an untarnished record of victories, was outclassed in a great battle at Chicago Heights on February 2nd. The Bloom gymnasium was filled to capacity, and even the sidelines of the playing floor were obstructed by the bustling crowd. Waukegan by winning this affair 17 to 14, eliminated Bloom from the championship race, as Waukegan was the only five to succeed in winning over this powerful, rangy, cage quintet. The second game with Bloom was played the following week on the Waukegan floor, and was replete with thrills that kept fans in continuous delirium. Bloom tied Waukegan 9-9 in the final quarter, and lost only when Barrett and Doyle tore through its defense to score two last minute baskets that put Waukegan in the lead 13 to 9, when the pistol cracked. La Grange again showed itself to be a most dangerous opponent, when Wauke¬ gan, with a large group of fans invaded the west Chicago suburban city for a re¬ turn game. La Grange at one time led 9 to 2, and held the lead during three quarters of the game. A rushing offense in the last period brought Waukegan from behind, and gave it another conference victory, 23 to 17. A little over confident, Waukegan found trouble aplenty in winning over Proviso, 20 to 17. Proviso here played its best game of the season, and gave Waukegan a great run for the lead, when Perry, Proviso forward, caged seven field goals that almost cost Waukegan the game. Eighty -four A return match with New Trier took place at Kenilworth, and again auke- gan came from behind to win. New Trier led 7 to 3 at the half, but succumbed to Waukegan’s notorious second half rally. Final score: Waukegan 21, New I rier 10. The final conference game was with Deerfield, at Waukegan, on February 23, which was celebrated as Homecoming. Here, as in the previous game, C ote was the outstanding star, scoring 15 out of the total of 23 points. Before the Homecoming crowds, Coach Muehl’s lads took Deerfield into camp 23 to 11, and won their eleventh successive league triumph. The league season over, Coach Muehl pointed his men for the district tourna¬ ment games. In a final practice game, Waukegan took a 25 to 13 victory at Liberty- ville. Waukegan in winning 11 out of 12 Suburban League games, finished second in the league, one game behind Oak Park who closed the season with a clear record of 12 victories. Evanston’s win over Waukegan resulted in the loss of a tie with Oak Park for the championship, but the winning of the District Championship later in the year more than offset this loss. The entire team will be back next year. Captain Ray Cote, center, Jack Bar¬ rett and George Macklin, forwards, and John Doyle and Robert Plummer, the five men who established the best basketball record ever made by a Waukegan team, will all be back for their positions next year. A number of promising reserves, in¬ cluding Soderman, Diamond, Peters, and a number of others, will also return, seek¬ ing berths on the squad. With all the players returning next season and aided by this year s lightweights who will undoubtedly become heavies next year, Coach W illard Muehl should be able to perfect another championship team, and Waukegan is looking forward to what the next season heavyweight basketball will bring. Eleven out of 12 league victories were won for a percentage of .917, while altogether, including the four district tournament games, Waukegan captured 20 victories out of 22 games. Truly a most wonderful record and a credit to Coach Muehl, the players, and the school itself. The games and their scores: W. T. H. S. 22 W. T. 11. S. 21 W. T. H. S.-. 13 W. T. 11. S . 23 W. T. II.

Berchtold, Class of ' 24. CAPT. RAYMOND COTE “Ray” The highest individual scorer of the Chicago Suburban High School league, of the Highland Park district tournament, and center on the All- Suburban team was Cote. Cool and calm at all times, tall and rangy in size, he usually took the tip-off and scored baskets from all angles. His kinky, jabby shots at basket meant defeat for many a team. You just couldn’t stop Cote. He has another year with us. ROBERT PLUMMER “Boh” Another player on the All-Tournament and All-Suburban basketball teams. Standing slight¬ ly over six feet in height, Plummer was a constant menace to opposing teams. He was one of the most efficient guards in this part of the state, and his specialty was to take the ball from the tip-off, a play that he and Cote worked for many baskets and scores. “Bob” will be back next year. JACK BARRETT “Jack” Barrett was one of the hardest fighters- on the team. Regardless of score, Jack was always in the midst of anything that looked like a scrimmage. Flashy, and on the go continually, he was an out¬ standing man on the court. His type of baskets were those with little arch on the thrown, just zipping through the rims. This was his first year as a regular and Jack is ready for more action next year. Eighty-six GEORGE MACKLIN “Mack” “Mack” was one of our forwards in his first year as a regular. He was another of those men who just couldn ' t get discouraged. “Mack” is a three sport man, and in basketball this year played like a veteran. He played his best in the tourna¬ ment where his baskets against New trier, kept Waukegan in the running for the title. Next year should see George in his prime. JOHN DOYLE “Doyle” As a mate for Plummer at guard Doyle was a player hard to duplicate. The manner in which he pivoted, broke up passes, and took the ball away from his opponents made Doyle a guard of the type that is truly hard to find. And just to make things interesting, occasionally, lie would dribble down the floor and drop a dazzling mid¬ floor shot through the brackets when additional points were needed. Doyle is another regular available for next season. ROBERT MEEKS PRITCHARD—Mascot “Bobby” “Bobby,” Waukegan’s mascot is also a veteran. Last year was his second term as official mascot for the Purple and Gold basketball team and he enjoyed the greatest season of his young career. “Bobby” took the limelight at the District Tourn¬ ament, at Highland Park, where he made his first appearance at the Waukegan Deerfield game. He was given a tremendous ovation by the fans when he trotted out on the floor. He has the distinction of being the only mascot in the wake of a Wauke¬ gan championship basketball team. Next year should be a big season for “Bobby.” Eight} -seven Row 1. Upper left to right. Coach Brown, Yager, Drew, Olson. Row Two. Lower.

Brown’s call for lightweight basketeers in December. Coach Brown, coming to us from Crystal Lake, proved to be a most efficient coach and trainer. It was not long before he was in the midst of his work at Waukegan, and had developed a team ready for its opening game. A good start was obtained on December 12, when Waukegan easily upset Antioch 24 to 5, and a week later defeated Kenosha on our floor 26 to 6. A hard game with Lake View went the wrong way, the crimson-jerseyed Chicago athletes winning 16 to 14. The Alumni were defeated 10 to 9, in a slow scoring match, and Kenosha was also routed again, this time 23 to 6. The season’s first Suburban League game found New Trier here ready for battle. The Kenilworth lads took a 12 to 6 win from Waukegan on January 11 and; the big season was on. Coming back strong in their second tilt, Coach Brown’s ponies outsped LaGrange 16 to 11 in a third quarter scoring rampage. This was the first of a string of victories, and placed the men in great trim for following games. Evanston was nosed out 12 to 8 in a game which had been predicted as an easy win for Evanston. Evans and Heap, Evanston’s scoring aces, were checked by the sturdy defense of Waukegan’s 130 pounders and Waukegan returned from Evanston flushed with triumph. Deerfield finally succeeded in stopping Waukegan’s flying midgets on its own floor, after the score had been tied 8-8 at the half, and 11-11 at the end of the third quarter. A couple of long tosses ended the deadlock and Deerfield had won 17 to 12. H eavy scoring by Lewis, Waukegan center, helped to toll forth another victory over Evan¬ ston, when the down shore team came here for a return scrimmage. Again Evanston found Eighth-eight Waukegan’s defense impenetrable, and Waukegan was started on another winning streak by downing Evanston 21 to 16. l.ittle trouble was experienced in a mid-week game with Thornton on January 31, on the Waukegan floor, when Coach Brown’s colts took over matters 21 to 13. Captain Whyte was high scorer with four baskets. Rough weather was encountered the following Saturday at Chicago Heights, when Wau¬ kegan met the speedy Bloom quintet. After the score had been tied 4-4 at the half, Wauke¬ gan obtained a 10-8 margin at the third quarter, but was in continual danger during the last period. Bloom missed a great number of easy shots which decreed Waukegan victor 11 to 10. At Waukegan a week later, Bloom nowhere resembled the team of a week before, Wau¬ kegan running wild with volleys of baskets and free throws. It was a most decisive victory for the Purple and Gold. Score: Waukegan 24; Bloom 6. Displaying great endurance and spirit, Waukegan next defeated in a return game which found the hostile team in the lead until the very last. Two baskets by Captain Whyte gave Waukegan the verdict, 14 to 11. Bucking up against the heaviest team of the season, Waukegan by a great fighting at¬ tack was able to overthrow its heavy opponents from Proviso, 24 to 9. The crowd was in a continual cheer as our lads rolled up the points and worked their great passing game to per¬ fection. New Trier lived up to New Trier traditions by handing Waukegan the customary defeat. New Trier on her own floor was invincible and Waukegan did well to hold her sharpshooting opponents to a 23 to 16 score. Deerfield and Waukegan staged another sensational exhibition, when the two met on Homecoming Day. Again the score was deadlocked until the final minutes, when Waukegan’s defense suddenly cracked and Deerfield scored the deciding baskets. Score, Waukegan 18, Deerfield 21. Using reserve men for the most part, Waukegan played its finale of the season against Libertyville on February 28, and scored 17 points to Libertyville’s 4. This game was used as a preparation for the district tournament in which Waukegan’s light-weights played an im¬ portant part. The lightweights in all, played 18 games, winning 13, for a percentage of .722. Waukegan won eight out of twelve Suburban League games and ended the season in a tie with Oak Park, for fourth place honors. New Trier and Deerfield were the only conference teams to register victories over the Purple. For next year only one man, Kenneth Sick, stationary guard, is lost by graduation. Cap¬ tain George Whyte, Lester Stang, Willard McDonough and Floyd Lewis remain as a wonder¬ ful nucleus for next year’s team. A goodly number of promising players, including Fitch, McIntosh, Yager, Drew, Lundin, Olson, and Stanzak will also be available unless shifted to the ranks of the heavyweights.

Eighty -nine JBaukrgmt UtiiH (Ehiragn Hiatrirt Glhampuntship ifigtjlaitfi Park Qlnuntamrnt Waukegan for the first time in the history of the school possesses a championship athletic team. Dur¬ ing the annual district tournament held at Deerfield High School, Waukegan’s basketball team won four games within 29 hours, and returned to Waukegan hailed as Chicago District champions. On Friday afternoon, March 7, at 3 o’clock, we met our old rival Deerfield, as our first opponent of the tourney. Five hundred fans, including our 40 piece uniformed band- were on hand for Waukegan’s opening game. The first half looked not so bright for Coach Muehl’s team, as it was behind 17 to 13 at the ten minute intermission. With Captain Cote re¬ gaining his accuracy during the second half, however, Waukegan’s hopes began to rise and we were in the lead 13 to 9 at the end of the third quarter. Through¬ out the final period, there was the utmost suspense and when the quarter finally ended, Waukegan was victorious in her first tourney game, 17 to 13. On Friday evening we met New Trier in the most sensational game of the entire tournament. New Trier with her hundreds of rooters and Waukegan with an equal number, made the gymnasium a pande¬ monium of noise. At the half, Waukegan had accu¬ mulated a substantial lead of 13 to 7, but this score changed only too quick in the final quarter, when the outcome was a mere toss up. Macklin, who had tossed three field goals, was suddenly eliminated in that crucial quarter, on personal fouls. Whyte, our lightweight captain replaced “Mack” and to Whyte goes the distinction of winning that terrific struggle with New Trier. First it was 17-13, 17-15, Waukegan still in the lead; now it was 17-17, 19-17, New Trier leading; 19-19, 21-19, New Trier still in the lead: Whyte ties the score 21-21. Another basket by Whyte and the score is 23-21, Waukegan in the lead, the pistol cracks, and Waukegan victor again. On Saturday afternoon Waukegan met Libertyville in the semi-finals. Starting the game with our entire lightweight team, we discovered that Librtvville was too strong for our colts, and the heavyweights were sent into the game in the second quarter, after Libertyville had a lead of 8 to 1. Our heavyweights did not seem to get “warmed up” but scored enough to de¬ feat 20 to 19 and thus earn the right to play in the finals. After Riverside had trounced the strong Oak Park team in the afternoon, we met River¬ side at 8:30 o’clock, Saturday night in the great championship game. After the first quarter Waukegan by playing one of the most consistent games exhibited all season, was never headed by the powerful Riverside team. Coach Muehl’s combination worked like clockwork, its plays went off with skill and precision, and the scoring attack was never in a better shape. Before 1,500 fans, crowding the house to its utmost, Waukegan defeated Riverside 21 to 18, and won her first championship. Captain Ray Cote was the highest scorer of the tournament, and was given a place as center on the All-Suburban team. Plummer was also placed on the mythical team as a re¬ sult of his outstanding work at guard Thus came our first championship. Every regular that helped win it will be back next year, and unless unforeseen events occur, there is every reason to believe that Waukegan will next year be in the midst of the fight for another championship and perhaps even a sectional or state championship.

COACH WILLARD MUEHL Ninety Ninety-one utlg Haarhall rasott of 1924 The resounding crash of horsehide against wood heard at “W” Park early in April, was the beginning of the training season of ’24, and eight players who had been with the squad in 1923 greeted Coach Willard L. Muehl’s call for candidates. It was the first season in years that a Waukegan mentor had the satisfaction of know¬ ing that a goodly number of men had seen previous service, and knew something about circling the diamond paths. The pitching department appeared to be in as good, if not better condition that some of the other positions. Art Steiner, a Sophomore, who in his Freshman year had twirled the team to victory in every game that he pitch ed, was back for action, as was also George Macklin, a three sport letter man and a hurler who had done the brunt of the pitching of the season of ’23. Both of these men were looked upon as the leading candidates for pitching honors. Ditmeyer was another lad out for a pitch¬ ing berth, but was handicapped because of lack of experience. The catching proposition was one of dispute. No less than four men were wag¬ ing warm competition for the backstop berth. At the time of this writing it appeared as if Fitch and Doyle would be the leading contestants Both of these men were on last year’s squad. Daryl Smith and Bruno Stanczak were pressing the others hard for the position however, which was destined to be a toss-up until the opening game. With the exception of first base and short stop, the “W” infield was bolstered with veterans. Jack Barrett, another three sport man, and in his third year as a regular, was playing around the third base corner with all his old time skill and vigor and appeared certain of securing his position. Lester Stang, the smallest man on the squad, but one of the fleetest, cavorted on second base in a manner indicating that he would be a candidate hard to defeat for that position. Podjunas, football fullback, and a new athlete at Waukegan looked as if he would secure the first base position, although he was being given a close race by James Lewis ,also a football man. Mason, another newcomer at Waukegan was displaying good talent for short¬ stop. The outfield was another undecided department of the team at the time of the writing of this article. George Whyte, a regular of last year, had a berth in the outer gardens practically cinched, however, and Martin Ekovitch, also a veteran looked good for another outfield job. Hennighausen, Jlovd Lewis, Ditmeyer, Crawford and Anderson were some of the other leading contestants among the group seeking work on the ’24 nine. The work of developing the men into a formidable team was under the super¬ vision of Coach Muehl. O. E. Graham, former baseball coach at Waukegan also helped greatly in the training work, assisting Coach Meuhl. No games had been played at the time of this writing, so it is impossible to give scores. The naming of players and their positions is also in the nature of conjec¬ ture, as no positions had been definitely established this early in the year. Below is given the 1924 baseball schedule, one of the heaviest in years: April 19.Hyde Park at Waukegan May 13...Open 23.Riverside at Waukegan 16.Waukegan at Blue Island 26.New Trier at Waukegan 20.Deerfield at Waukegan 29.Waukegan at Riverside 23...Open May 2.Blue Island at Waukegan 26.Bloom at Waukegan 6.Waukegan at Deerfield 29.Waukegan at New Trier 10.-.Oak Park at Waukegan June 3.

Ralph D. Brown was added to the school staff, to take complete charge of the school’s activi¬ ties in track and field events, as well as to instruct gym) classes in which he built up material for future track competition. Coach Brown deserves much credit for the splendid showing his boys have made in their track meets during the past season. When Brown started his task he had practically nothing to work with, except a few willing men. Those who came out were the ones who really put Waukegan High on the sporting map for track. Although Waukegan High did not win any of the big meets, or even win second, third, or fourth places, she has nevertheless made a good record. Due to the inexperience of the men, Waukegan did not do so well in the scoring during the first part of the track season, but after a little training, showed marked improvement. Indoor track coming during the first part of the school year, happened to he the division of the sport that suffered the most. Coach Brown was busy with the lightweight basketball teams, and was unable to start track until after basketball had finished. Another great handicap that stood in the way of progress was the small indoor track in the gym where practice was held. The first meet was at Chicago University, on February 9. Just two men were entered and neither placed. Another was held at Chicago University, on February 23. At this time Brown took ten men along and although Waukegan did not place, made a much better showing than the first time. Czajowski and Koziol won their heats in the preliminaries of the 50 yard dash, and lost out in the semi-finals. On March 5th, an interclass indoor meet was held in the high school gym; the Seniors won with 57 points. The Juniors were second with 25, and the Freshmen nosed out the Sophomores 12 to 11. George Morris was the leading point maker, with 19, and Mason second with 14 points. After the interclass meet, more boys came out for the sport. On March 21 and 22, Wauke¬ gan entered the Northwestern University Interscholastic. At this meet George Morris es¬ tablished a school record for the high jump, when he cleared the bar at 5 feet 6, and went out on 5-7. On March 28, when Waukegan High entered the Indoor Suburban meet, at Northwestern University, sbe made ber first point earned in a track meet. To Bill Peristy, a Freshman, goes the honor of capturing the first fraction of a point in the school’s track history. Peristy lied for fourth place in the high jump of the junior events, with a five foot jump, and went out on 5-1. In the senior events Morris won out in the preliminaries of the high hurdles, and was entered in the finals where he captured fifth place. Czajkowski entered the finals of the 50 yard dash and captured fifth place. Karjala and Henninghousen captured sixth place in their heats of the 440 yard run, and the Junior relay team carried off fifth place honors in their event. This meet closed the indoor track season for Waukegan. When Coach Brown opened practice for outdoor track, he met the same difficulty as he had experienced in indoor—lack of a track for practice, and work had to he confined to the drill field in the rear of the senior school. The first meet entered in the outdoor season, was the Drake Relays, held at Des Moines, Iowa, on April 25 and 26. Brown took his four best runners to these events. After the good showing the men made in the Drake Relays, they re¬ ceived an invitation to participate in the Wisconsin Relays, held on May 3rd, at Madison. Waukegan High entered two dual meets during the season, the first with Libertyville, at Libertyville, on May 9, and the other with Morton High School at Cicero, Illinois, on May 24. Waukegan was also entered in the Illinois Interscholastic, at Urbana, on May 17 and 18, the Cook County meet at Chicago University on May 31, and on June 7, the Outdoor Subur¬ ban meet at Evanston High School field, Evanston, Illinois.

Little equipment was available; the teams were uniformed only on the nights when they played. How¬ ever, in spite of the fact that a player weighing ninety-five pounds often had to wear a suit made for some who weighed nearly twice as much, in spite of the fact that the padding, even after much tying often became sadly misplaced, nevertheless the in¬ terest of the students was at a high pitch throughout the season. A twenty-four game series was played, and the championship was not decided until the last game. 1 he easy victory of tlie All-Intra-murals over Libertyville seconds furnished a grand cli¬ max for a successful season. The basketball men were called just before Christmas; one hundred and eighty- six boys signed up. These were divided into three weight division, twenty-two teams were formed and an 89 game schedule drawn up. Plans for the participation of girls in Intra-mural sports are being formulated. Thus far no co-educational institution has worked out a complete Intra-mural pro¬ gram for girls, so perhaps we shall make history, who knows? Sports were not made for boys alone. The story of the fleet-footed Atlanta of the golden apple fame, shows us that even in the time of the early Greeks, the athletic prowess of woman was not unrecognized. Today we have our W oman s Olympic Games, and in evtrv sport we And women taking active part. Is not the fame of Aileen Riggem almost as great as that of Johnny Weissmueller ? Have not the names of Helen Wills, Suz- anee Lenglen, and Mrs. Molla Mallory flashed across the tennis world as brightly as have those of Tilden and Johnson. And what are the plans of intramural activities of Tomorrow? On the new Intramural held “which is to be” I seem to see the successor of the Opals and All Americans, conspicuous in their new crimson and blue jerseys, fighting desperately to maintain their standing near the head of the I. M. League. Each team now has it s own coach; a student, one of the faculty, or some one in the community. In the far end of the field, forming a fast moving mass of color against the dark green sod, may be seen a girls’ hockey game in progress. The white ball bounces crazily out of a mass of swinging hockey sticks, and is shot across the field by a back- banded swing of a white middied girl. “During September and October, we have hockey for the girls. The boys play football until November 25th. During November the girls are busy with basketball and swimming, while the boys basketball season begins December 1st’ and is carried thru March 1st. February and March find the girls playing indoor baseball or swim¬ ming. April and May are divided among several sports. Many of the boys work on wrestling for a two week’s period during which the championship of the various weights are decided. Baseball, tennis and golf all have their devotees, and each is given the best coaching we have available. The girls play along the same lines, and their annual All-Grand Track Championship is decided the second week in May. Thus the dream might go an and on, but you have the vision. An enormous amount of work and organization must be done. With the proper spirit, the right enthusiasm, the support and co-operation of the students and teachers, we can and will have a complete intramural program, a program which will provide pleasure as well as benefit for every pupil in W.

Atbletir Asanriattmt Membership in the Athletic Association is open to all students and teachers, and is obtained by purchasing a ticket at the beginning of each sport season. Game tickets are purchased at a cheaper price by members of the Association than by others. During the year, football and basketball banquets have been held, and on these occasions, the boys have been awarded their “W’s.” The Association is divided into two parts; the Board of Control which consists of the elected officers of the Association and the physical and athletic directors of the school and the Executive Committee composed of students and a Faculty Advisor. This committee meets every Monday after school to discuss different plans and projects for the betterment of the school and its athletic departments. During the past year this organization has ac¬ complished a great deal toward boosting its slogan, “Help put Waukegan High on the map.” This committee has taken full charge of conducting mass meetings, ban¬ quets, and other athletic events in the school.

(§. E. (E. The Reserve Officers’ Training Corps is organized under authority of Section 40-47c, Na¬ tional Defense Act, as amended. The War Department offers military training to educational institutions not only without cost, but with substantial contributions in clothing and equip¬ ment. The failure to take advantage of the opportunity of having every hoy developed for service or citizenship in accordance with the requirements of military training can he as¬ cribed either to apathy or to the erroneous belief that war is the result of the existence of armies. Knowledge of any kind can lie misused or abused, but military knowledge and the existence of armies have never contributed to war in our country. On the contrary, our wars have come from causes that had no relation to our military power, and generally they could have been avoided or greatly reduced in time, in blood, and in treasure had we possessed the forces to inspire the respect of our enemies. It is therefore partially an ignorant preju¬ dice that associates military instruction with war or with ideals adverse to those gained in other studies in a public school. The primary object of the R. O. T. C. is to provide systematic military training at civil educational institutions for the purpose of qualifying selected students of such institutions for appointment as reserve officers in the military forces of the United States. The Military Department is not superimposed upon the high school system of training as an entirely separate department: it is co-ordinated with the other departments for the purpose of securing the general educational objctives of the school. Although the primary object of the R. O. T. C. is to produce trained officers for the Officers’ Reserve Corps, the War Depart¬ ment places high value upon various other elements of training which are equally valuable to the young men in future civil occupations. Military training develops the body and co-ordinates the mental and the physical processes. Even now the country does not realize the menace to the future of the decline in physique of our manhood, although the draft showed that from thirty to fifty percent of the young men from different groups of States were physically unfit to serve their country. The standards moreover were not high, and most of the defects could have been prevented by proper train¬ ing in boyhood. It teaches self-respect and pride. Every man has sterling merit, and if he has due regard for himself, his ambition will impel him to make the most of his endowments, thus bringing success and happiness in his undertakings. It teaches consideration for others and the subordination of the individual to the welfare of the whole. Perhaps the greatest defect of our national character is the desire for self-advancement. It is only by teamwork and a just appreciation of the obligations of the individual to his fellow men and to his environ¬ ment, that unity of effort can be secured. It teaches courage, fortitude, and self-reliance. These are the essentials of leadership, whether in military or in civil life. The man who by the force of his convictions and the tenacity of his purpose can convince others that he is right, is a real asset to his community. It teaches patriotism and respect for our Government, our laws, and our properly constituted authorities. Loyalty to the flag, to the ideals of our con¬ stitution and to the traditions of our people is as essential to the civilians as to the military men. It develops idealism by reason of the supreme sacrifice and suffering, as well as the momentous responsibilities that are inseparable from the soldier’s calling, the military code has come to embody the most exalted virtues with which men can be endowed. It has ever been the pride of the military men that their standards were high, and their dealings above reproach. Since the code has never tolerated any departure from customs and laws these have grown stronger with usage. The country cries for men who can lead and direct our great enterprises. The boy who becomes such a man is assured of success. The latent qualities of leadership can be developed in no better way than by a practical and theoretical course in military training. The boy who receives this instruction is thereby placed in a preferred class. He has a tremendous advantage in the battle of life, over the hoy who has not been thus trained to fill the role of a leader. Captain R. F. Drake. Ninetjl-ei ght Ninety nine (Stamp (Euatpr 1923 Waukegan sent “Jimmie” Beaman for training in the Signal Corps at Camp Custer, Jack. Banta to take the White Course, Yale Schellenger, Bion Bradbury, and Harold Kolbe, to fin¬ ish the Blue Course. We left on the first of August, traveling by auto as far as Chicago, where we took the Lake steamer. City of St. Joe. We arrived in camp at 10:30 that evening. The next morning we were issued equipment. On Wednesday, our routine started. Our usual program for the day, after rising and eat¬ ing, would be to march to the parade ground for a half hour’s period of calesthenics, and then to the drill ground, where we were instructed in infantry drill for two or three hours. We were given frequent rests and the time did not seem at all too long. After a lecture on citizen¬ ship or other topics, we marched back to our company street, and were dismissed until mess. The afternoon was usually ours, with the exception of the days when we were scheduled to parade. Friday, August 10th, was declared a holiday in memory of the late President Harding. The morning was spent in a long service in his honor. He had been our commander-in-chief, and the loss was brought home to every man present. Our battalion, number fifty, was the only one that had cadet officers. We were rotated; Kolbe was company commander for a week, and then major for a day. A battalion song was written and music composed by men from our ranks. We had to go out on the rifle range to practice singing it. The fellow who set it to music was an assistant grand opera director. After hearing us sing it, he was so well pleased with the rendition that he suggested we advertise it. The student officers and musicians had a “pow wow” and de¬ cided to serenade General Moseley, so far as we knew, this had never been done before in the history of the Army. We planned to march the battalion over to the General’s quarters, sing our song, and “beat” it. Our officers heard of this and decided to help us carry out our plans. Captain Stanis and Lieutenant Tollman designated Cadet Captain Kolbe to give an ex¬ temporaneous introductory speech. Our plans were carried out and the General actually shed tears. We never knew whether it was the song or the speech that broke the General’s heart. “Jimmie” Beaman won a medal for pistol marksmanship, also a medal for being the best all round man in his company. The Waukegan North Chicago Chamber of Commerce awarded medals to the three boys from Lake County who made the highest rating at the camp. The awards were as follows: Harold Kolbe, Gold; Jack Banta, Silver; and James Beaman, Bronze. On the 18th we passed in review before Major General George H. Harris, and on the 25th, before General John J. Pershing. We were honored with a talk by him afterward. On the 30th we finished our last day of training and gave over our colors to the regulars to keep for us, until we came again for further training. The colors and their guards passed be¬ fore us, and the color sergeants of Uncle Sam ' s 2nd and (5th Regiments of Infantry took them over. We all felt as if the sky had fallen; tears were in our eyes and lumps in our throats. During that solemn moment we realized that the flag we were saluting was the flag of our country, the best flag and the best country in the world. Harot.ii H. Koi.be, ’24.

SUflr iHarksi mans hip Rifle firing is a mechanical operation which anyone who is physically and mentally fit can learn to do well if properly instructed. The methods of instruction are the same as those used in teaching any mechanical operation. The student is taught the various steps in their proper order. He is carefully watched and is corrected whenever he starts to make a mistake. Students instinctively do the wrong thing in firing the rifle They give the trigger a sudden pressure, which is the cause of flinching. Consequently, students cannot he taught to shoot by placing them alone on the firing line, with ammunition to expend and targets at which to shoot in front of them. The idea that mere practice will ultimately make them perfect shots is wrong. Such procedure merely fixes the instinctive bad habit in the average student and makes it extremely difficult for any one to teach him to shoot, even with proper methods. If he has, however, been thoroughly instructed and drilled in the mechanism of correct shooting, and is then carefully and properly coached when he begins firing, the correct shooting habit rapidly becomes fixed and replaces the instinctive incorrect habits that be would have de¬ veloped if left alone. It is much easier to make an excellent shot out of a student who has never fired a rifle than it is to correct the errors of a student who has done a good deal of shoot¬ ing under improper supervision. Technical Sergeant Henry Oliver Shea, Infantry DEML, had complete charge of rifle marksmanship this year, and turned out the best Rifle team that Waukegan High School has ever produced.

Never before have people realized to bow great an extent contentment, faitb, hope, and love are cultivated, fed, and warmed through music. It is the expression of the in¬ nermost thoughts and feelings. It finds its response in young and old alike. It forms the basis of a common meeting ground for mankind. Music is being brought to all people everywhere. In community gatherings, in the home, and most of all, in the schools, the humanizing, uplighting, cultural influences of good music is being sponsored. Two phases of music education are of primary interest in the curriculum: (1) The appreciative, which develops in the pupil a love for all that is beauti¬ ful in music. It is through this phase that the entire student body will be reached. The ultimate plan is that every student will be required to have at least one year ot music appreciation toward graduation. (2) The technical, which leads the pupil to read music and to perform. The violin class, clarinet class, band and orchestra are making it possible for students who have ability, talent, ambition, and initiative to reach higher levels of production. In other words, the school would provide for the training of skillful musicians. Music is a vocation, whether it be as a director or supervisor of music or as an instru¬ mental or vocal artist. The Music Department at the High School has made only a start toward the jjoal which it hopes to reach. Due to the overlap program and to space limitation Ft has been impossible to carry forward all of the plans of the department. At pres¬ ent the following subjects requiring preparation are being given: harmony, history of music, violin, and clarinet. In addition to these, other courses, not requiring prep¬ aration, are: band, orchestra, chorus and glee club. All are accomplishing good re¬ sults. No definitely arranged course of study in musical appreciation has been started although some appreciative work is introduced in all of the music classes. An as¬ sistant to teach appreciation work only; reaching every pupil in school is the ideal toward which we are working. In the Music Department at the present time may be found a number of pupils who have ability, talent, and initiative. These are preparing to become directors of public school music and in a few instances are seeking to become artistic performers. Among those who have left our school and are now in college are: Oliver Humo, Paul Tammi and Louis Johnson at Kirksville, Missouri, preparing to be directors and supervisors of music, and Marshall Meyer, Kermit Liehtv and Harold Liehtv, all boys of exceptional ability in music, at the University of Illinois. The latter are members of the Concert Band. An attempt is made to keep in touch with these stu¬ dents, and to fan that spark of ambition and enthusiasm which may spur some talent¬ ed young player to attain the level of the symphony orchestra. The ideal or goal of the Music Department may be stated in three general ob¬ jectives : 1. The enrichment of the mind with the auditory imagery of the great music of the world. 2. The ability, as auditor or musical “consumer” judiciously to utilize music for healthful, abundant and varied awakening of one’s emotional nature. 3. The ability, disposition and habit of participating in home, chorus, or com¬ munity singing. Otto E. Graham. One Hundred Nine uilje Hanii The Band, which has a membership of fifty students, set three goals to attain during the school year. They were as follows: 1. To perfect the proper balance and quality of tone and to omit all jazz music. 2. To be of service to the community, anu to help in developing the proper school spirit. 3. To improve the individual appear¬ ance of the band by earning money for new uniforms. A group of men known as the Waukegan Boys Rotating 1 unds Association, advanced enough money to purchase uniforms, and by a series of concerts, part of this money has been repaid. Much time has been spent in attaining the proper balance of tone, and tone quality, rather than volume, has been drilled into the bandmen under the supervision of their leader, Mr. Graham. At the district basketball tournament at Highland Park, and the sectional tournament at Joliet, where larger bands were in attendance, Waukegan was complimented highly on its well developed balance and quality of tone. Practically all of the time for practice has been devoted to the study of operatic and other classical numbers; jazz music was omitted entirely. On many occasions, the band has been called upon to participate in community functions. Early in the year, they were asked to play at the Y ire Mill, for a group of honor students who came from all over the United States to visit the local factory. In March, the band played at the Rotary banquet, where the basketball teams were the guests of honor. On March 21st, with bowed heads and heavy hearts, they played the funeral march of Chopin at the funeral of Lawrence Olsen, editor of the 1923 “W.” Especially on this occasion did the band try hard to do its best, as Lawrence was loved greatly by all members. The band as an organization has tried hard to produce loyalty, school spirit, unity of purpose, and “pep.” Whenever called upon to furnish music for a special assembly or school activity, it has responded to the call. The unit has been present at all home basketball games and also accompanied the team on the majority of out of town trips.

One Hundred Eleven GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB GIRLS’ CHORUS A clear idea as to the purposes of the study of art in the public high schools is important. The idea prevalent a generation or more ago, included nothing more than the achievement of technical skill. This view has now broad¬ ened, and the demands of our modern, social and industrial conditions call for a course of study which will touch both the home and the community. A train¬ ing in Art assists the powers of observation, cultivates a desire for harmonious surroundings, and performs the double duty of training hand and mind at the same time. Art in our high school is divided into special subjects. The principles of design, and the theory of color, which are presented at the beginning of the school year, provide a basis for a definite and clear cut expression for the plan¬ ning of various constructive and applied crafts problems. The Home Econ¬ omics Art course includes Dress Design and Interior Decoration. It aims to develop taste and judgment in the selection of clothes and house furnishing. Interior Decoration teaches a girl the wide use of color and design for practi¬ cal problems of home decoration. A girl who studies Dress Design will turn away from cheap finery, and will understand that over decoration is worse than no decoration at all. A girl who is able to select for herself simple, ap¬ propriate and individual clothes, is equipped with one of the most practical aids that our art training can offer. The pleasure resulting from an understanding of good form, proportion, design and all the various qualities of beauty is one of the most satisfying ex¬ periences of life. Olive E. Hanson.

It was built regulation size, and will some day, we hope, be transferred to our new school theater. Thus encouraged, the club produced “Clarence,” said to be the most artistic and suc¬ cessful play, given at the high school. It was played to full houses two evenings. In addi¬ tion to buying new equipment, we lifted the debt which had existed since we organized. We were able to add books of plays to our drama library, and to subscribe for thirty copies of ‘lhe Drama’ magazine, which is used in class, and for plays. In January, as an interlude in the program of their Annual Band Concert, we presented “The Melon Thief,” a Medieval Japanese Farce. One of the most pleasant and profitable occasions of the year, was the day the Woman ' s Club invited us to bear Miss Maude Sherer read, “The Skin Game,” by Galsworthy. We came away thrilled by the play and the very artistic presentation of it. The Woman’s Club honored us by asking us to give one of their regular Monday afternoon programs. At the close they gave us a reception and served delicious refreshments. At the Commercial Club demonstration, March 13, we showed our great appreciation of the help of the Commercial Club, by giving a shadow play, which afforded us much fun and a new kind of acting experience. One day an ambitious and enthusiastic member of the club (Sylvia Clark) asked if she and a group of girls might give an original play. Favorable condit ions were at once pro¬ vided. These amateur playwrights appropriated the “Harold Teen ' ’ family, and produced a booster skit for the Tournament pep meeting, March 10. The cast was as ' follows: Harold Teen, Sylvia Clark; Josie Teen, Lucille Flanders; Mrs. Teen, Mary Zelesnik; Mr. Teen, Mar¬ jorie Tasker; Lillums, Lucile Needham. We have presented programs of one act plays for the B. Y. P. U. at the Baptist Church, and for one of the divisions of the Ladies’ Aid at the Congregational Church. We are glad to serve the Community who so generously support us. Genevra Parker McNaugiiton. One Hundred Fourteen THE MELON THIEF—S.

Genevra Parker McNaughton. One Hundred Sixteen iCiterarg Slrii Htiitug Ijnnh (Sfuiapb) My original intent was to dash off a modern version of the immortal Red Riding Hood theme, and I can truthfully state that I had no premeditated plans concerning what follows. I simply started thus: (I was independent and broke away, as you can readily see, from the stereotyped form of fairy-tale introduction). Once upon a time, at the edge of a great forest, there lived a nice little girl, who was called “Red Riding Hood.” Now, Red Riding- Hood wasn t her real name, but everybody called her that because she used to wear a riding hood of the brightest red. She was a very pretty little girl. It was at this point that my first interruption occurred. I felt a tap on the shoulder, and turned to see who it was that had the audacity to interrupt me. There stood F. Scott Fitz¬ gerald. “I saw you writing a story about a girl, and I couldn’t resist the temptation of asking you to allow me to assist in its completion. I would like very much to continue your narrative from where you stopped just now.” As I was very tired and rather interested in my visitor, I agreed. Here is what followed: “This bewitching little flapper of the sylvan shades, wasn’t exactly a beauty; nevertheless her ability to wield a lip-stick and her wide reputation as a ' hoofer, ' caused her to be in great demand at the Country Club hops. On the morning following one of said hops, we find her sipping her gin and toast in bed, exhausted from the strenuous exercise of the dance. The following conversation ensues between the girl and her mother: Mo ther: ‘Get up, dearie; you’ll be getting stout if you stay in bed so long mornings. You got in early last night, you know—before dawn even.’ Daughter: ' I know it, Gertie, but I’ve an awful headache.’ Mother: ‘Well, get up; for I want you to carry a basket of hops out to your grand¬ mother ' s. She’s not very well, you know, and about to make her will.’ Daughter: ‘Show me the hops, I’ll treat her like a daughter; then maybe I ' ll get that new roadster.’ The young imp was soon on her way and—” Another break. This time activities were suspended by the arrival of no less a person¬ age than Thornton Burgess, who never can rest when there is a bed-time story yet untold. He asked to try his hand. I glady agreed, and the story goes on: “All the little woodspeople were up, and about their morning work, when Red Riding Hood passed through the greeny woods. Peter Rabbit called them together. ‘I scent trouble,’ said he. ‘Oh, do you!’ replied little Sammy Skunk. ‘Well, you ought to; your nose is big enough.’ ‘Now, let us not fight,’ cautioned Wee Willy Woodchuck, ‘See, here comes Little Red Rid¬ ing Hood. Let us follow her.’ And sure enough all the woodspeople tripped gaily over the summer paths and followed little Red Riding Hood until Wicked Wally Wolf appeared on the scene.” “Wait!” cried a voice from behind me, “Let me assist in the preparation of this tale.” Who should the speaker be, but good old George Morris, who stood, pen in hand, heavily armed with his dictionary and a book of synonyms! I decided to “let George do it.” The re¬ sult follows: “The wolf, who was one of tremendous magnitude and a garrulous disposition, endeavored to become engaged in an improptu conversation with the youthful female. ‘To what destination do you direct your pedal extremities?’ inquired the animal. ‘To the remote domicile of my antiquated grandmother.’ The wolf expressed a desire to accompany her, and received permission. The two pedes- trains continued their journey—” “And now let me take a crack at it,” said Ring Lardner from the rapidly growing crowd of onlookers. “Go to it, Ring,” said I. Here is proof that he did: One Hundred Seventeen “This hear wolf and gal—they hadn’t gone know inoar than three quarters of the weigh to Granny’s, when he commenced running his i up and down her scale, like as if she was a menu. He asked her how much she waved. The gal said as how she guessed about one hundred thirty, ringside. The wolf said he should judge it were therahouts, and said that she were nice and plump. Pretty soon they came two Granny ' s door.” Wonders never cease, we are told, and we quite agree, for the next collaborator to assist in this unique tale was our own Mr. Keller. His contribution: “The wolf, who was a creature of very complex intellect, and of a psychological turn of mind, realized that the time had arrived to carry out his plan, for (a) he knew that the young lady was of an immature mind; (b) he knew that her I. Q. was extremely low; (c) he also knew that there was no one present to observe him; (d), and that conditions were ideal, in genera], for securing a hearty co-operation between his teetli and Granny. He therefore requested that the young lady tarry, so to speak, at the door and allow him to deliver the hops. (Right here, let me say that I wish I had time to elaborate on the evils of hops), but to resume—” Here he stopped. Ed Gobrecht, monger of ballads, commenced to versify the story from where it was left off. The verse follows: “The wolf was hungry and awful thin. He opened the door and went right in. ’Hello, Granny, dear ' he slyly said, To poor Granny, who was sick-a-bed. ' Red Riding Hood, you sound terr ' ble tough,’ Said the old lady, ‘Your voice is rough; ‘Granny, that’s because I’ve got a cold, And besides, you’re getting pretty old.’ Now the wolf, he wasn’t any too slow—- He devoured granny from top to toe. Then he put her night cap on his head, And, donning her night dress, got in bed. Then in walked little Red Riding Hood And by the new Granny’s side she stood. ‘Good grief! Grandmother, you’re face looks fierce! And you seem to have such shaggy ears! And your teeth are sharp and long! Oh my!’ Now our wolf, being a wise old guy, Said, ‘I know I look like an old pill, But that ' s because I’m so very ill. Now if you are a good little miss, You’ll give your old Granny a nice kiss.’ Reddy bent down with eyes than ran, And, of course, that’s where our fun began.” A short, knowing-eyed lad ferreted his way through the circle. “Let me show you how to write it,” he announced. As he was my old friend, “Russ” Mitchell, I couldn’t refuse him. His section of the story: “Red Riding Hood, youthful female bantam-weight, recently gained a decision over Kid Wolf, in a three round go at the Granny Arena. The bout was bittter and hard fought. Wolf had a big edge on the dame, until Woodcutter Willy stepped into the fray, and planted a sleep-producer on Wolf’s beak.” “Terrible! Terrible!” moaned E. M. Hull of “Sheik” fame. “Leave it to a prosaic, unimaginative journalist to spoil it all. Let me at least bring about a happy ending. Her conclusion: “And as the sinking, rose-red sun nestled against the bosom of the western horizon, little Red Riding Hood and Woodcutter Will, having tasted of the bitterness of life, turned their faces toward the clearing and left the forest. They built a sweet little love nest; and there, with hearts athrob with love, and souls refreshed witli hope for a brighter future, they lived happily ever after.” I then thought the story over, but— “Yes, until Will saw a more attractive girl and left Red Riding Hood and the children, and the house burned down and—” I was forced to silence no less realistic a writer than Ben Hecht. And the theme was completed. Arthur W. Shumway, ’ 25 . One Hundred Eighteen Pertaining tn tljp H. (£. tEra What psychology, or sister-in-law to psychology, is it that prompts the perennial Bache¬ lor’s Club? Every spring, or, to he more accurate, shortly after Christmas, there appears an organization founded on the principles of freedom, but roofed by a rather indefinite idea of revenge, and on whose membership rolls may lie found the names of many of the most ar¬ dent lovers in school. Defiance seems to be the principal component of their uncertain and changeable attitudes, and each member wears the harrassed air of one who is certain that IT will happen, and who is merely exhausting his brain in an apparently vain guess for the identity of IT. Of course the remote cause of this situation is the cold manner which many of the girls adopt, at about this time of year, and which seems to increase in frigidity as the weather be¬ comes more inviting. The explanation of this phenomenon has already been given. It takes place in the think-box of a girl, than which there is nothing more variable. Why, though, in the name of the ex-Kaiser’s lap-dog, should a group of supposedly self-respecting young men, in the event of their company becoming irksome to certain captious, date-weary girls, seek revenge by the curious process of carrying out precisely the wishes of their oppressors? The puzzle is intensified by the fact that the organization always dies a natural death, and slips out of existence without so much as a single spot of revenge staining its conscience. The writer, having the best interests of the boys at heart, and similar interests in girls in his head—to the great detriment of that organ’s efficiency—would humbly beg that some person of superior intellect, prove his superiority by answering the initial question. Geohge Morris ' 24. lluffutg Bluffing is an art. Of course, we hear daily the standard warning of the pedagogs: “You may think that you are getting away with something, but you ' re not!’’ True, to a certain extent. It is quite true that a bluffer does not glean as much solid knowledge from a course as a conscientious student, nor does the bluffer receive grades as high as those of the lad who studies earnestly. Albeit, it matters not to me whether a pupil bluffs—that is more a sub¬ ject for a moralist. Bight or wrong, the question of the practice itself, of Bluffing does not interest me! my concern lies in the method, instead. Nothing alters the fact that Mr. Web¬ ster, in his well known, and much referred to book, makes a statement to the effect that art is a word used to denote the gaining of a certain end, by skillful manipulation—surely then Bluffing is an art. I ike the more widely recognized arts, Bluffing offers a great opportunity for versatility. Just as Rubens and Michael Angelo, Homer and Shakespeare, and Wagner and Mozart, all had different methods of expressing theirs. I know one confirmed bluffer who is extremely successful in his use of the “time stall;’’ that is, as one of his instructors employs the initial system of sequence in recitation, and as this certain pupil ' s name begins with a letter near the end of the alphabet, the hoy is usually able when called upon to dally until the close of the period, without exposing his ignorance of the subject under discussion. Many followers of the art use a much more complicated method; they entirely avoid reci¬ tation. They know, to start with, that some instructors make a practice of calling upon those pupils who they think know nothing of the topic, or upon those whose minds have drifted far beyond classrooms and school. They know, also, that such instructors seldom request reci¬ tations from real students, and that real students either sit serene and confident in their seats, or bob up and down, waving eager hands. Wjiat naturally follows is that the bluffers look just as knowing, and wave just as eager hands, as do the studious pupils, being all the while moderately certain that that scared looking lad in the hack row, who is nervously fingering his fountain pen, or that moon-eyed girl, who is gazing dreamily into space, will he the victim chosen. Ah no, bluffers’ brains are neither dull nor idle! Versataility indeed! And were I to enumerate here all the various known methods of bluffing, I should still be writing at this date a year hence, but I know better than to do so, for should I write a bluffer ' s handbook for use in this institution, (and such a volume would surely be the result of my labors) it would be speedily suppressed by a firm touch of authority. I must content myself with the thought that as long as our instructors persist in asking pupils embarrassing questions, concerning such matters as history and the like, there will flourish a widely practiced art known as “Bluffing.” Arthur Shumway, ' 25. One Hundred Nineteen ilnbuBtrial Arts Department In the Industrial Arts Department, information is gained through reading, through coming in contact with live problems, and through observation. The fundamental operations that must be performed, naturally arrange themselves into groups. A knowledge of these operations and their application, aids a pupil in the drawing room and in the shop. Practical, commercial ideas aife constantly being injected into the course. An earnest effort is made to develop those qualities that belong to a real education: an intelligent attack, an organized and orderly procedure, skillful execution, painstaking comple¬ tion, habits, honest work, respect for labor, and the ability not only to know but “to do.

Home Economics for Freshmen, is under the direction of Katherine Ladd, and is fully described by her under the caption, Home Economics at the Junior School. 1 he Sophomore and Junior Home Economics in the Senior School, continues the work of the Freshman year. The Sophomores have a related art class, taught by the regular art teacher. 1 he underlying principles of Art, as it applies to the home and costume, with prac¬ tical problems and projects to illustrate its application, are here presented. 1 he Juniors have a c.ass in Home Economies Chemistry, where the underlying principles of science, as applied to home life and house care, sanitation, etc., are taught to the girls in a segregated class. In the cooking laboratory, tbe practical side of cookery as a science is presented; meal service, marketing, general etiquette, food values, nutrition, dietetics, home nursing, child care, and other phases of the Home Maker’s job are taught in short units along with food prep¬ aration and meat service. 1 he clothing course consists of application of the Art course in costume design, to prac¬ tical construction of garments, and the girls make much of their own school clothing. A class in trade millinery has been offered, and some students from that course are now suc¬ cessful milliners. Personal hygiene and health are stressed especially in the clothing courses. Owing to the long school day, no Home Economics club lias been successful in the Senior school; but, by means of food sales, bazaars, etc., the Home Economic girls have provided a library of sixty volumes for their reference work, and made other various educational and artistic contributions to their department. Since 1918 the enrollment has increased to four times its size at that date, and four teachers are now employed full time. The Vocational, part time students, under the direction of Mrs. Brinkman and Miss Stoevener, are showing some very good results. At a food sale in December, these girls demonstrated their ability as cooks, and made a substantial contribution to the Home Econ¬ omics funds. The organization of a club for all Home Economics teachers along the North Shore is being planned. The nucleus of such a club had its beginning at New Trier, March 11, when all the Home Economics teachers along the North Shore were entertained by the Home Mak¬ ing teachers of the school. Some very beneficial results are anticipated. Fannie Buck.

A meeting was held on December 17, 1923, for the purpose of registering members and for elect¬ ing officers. Lillian Baird, Elizabeth C arter, and Norman Johnson were elected to the offices of President, Vice-president, and Secretary, respectively. It was also deceided that there should be three committees; a social committee, consisting of six members; a service committee, consisting of three members; and an advisory com¬ mittee, consisting of two members. Mr. Ford, Miss Smith and Miss Sexton were chosen as sponsors. The Club now lias seventy-five members from the Bookkeeping, Office-practice, and Phonography classes. Because this club has been organized so recently, nothing much has been heard concerning it. One objective of the club is to raise funds to be used to defray ex¬ penses of the representatives who will attend the Shorthand and Typing contests at Bloomington, Illinois, and Des Moines, Iowa, to compete with other contestants for the state and inter-state championships. To help raise this fund the members are assessed twenty-five cents a semester as club dues. Another means of defraying these expenses have been the candy sales, and the entertaining programs and demonstra¬ tions conducted by the club. Besides the practical work, the club has given parties, picnics, and programs in which outside speakers have taken part. In all of its work, throughout the year, the organization has attempted to present to its members, the fundamental requirements of an efficient office-worker. Its chief aim has been to teach the members to co-opera- ate, for success depends upon co-operation. If the members grasp this spirit, the department will be greatly benefitted in many ways.

QJ he 1924 “W’ The 1924 “W” represents the earnest endeavors and honest labors of the staff; it re¬ presents also the wise counsels and advice of those interested in its success. Mrs. Ruby Kirk McLean, faculty advisor for the “W” deserves special credit for the or¬ ganization of the book, for her splendid spirit of co-operation, and for her ever present will¬ ingness to aid. Miss Warren, Miss Tidy and Mr. Rossier ably assisted in correcting copy. We are indebted to Mr. Prichard for his many practical suggestions. To Miss Hanson and the Art students, is due the credit of carrying forward so artistically the theme of the book. Isadore Emmer deserves special recognition for the skillful way which he handled the cartoon work. Members of the Commercial group have shown a willing spirit in typing and doing other clerical work. Archie Schwarztrauber assumed an unusual amount of responsi¬ bility in carrying out the advertising program. Donald Fulton was untiring in his efforts to make a complete and attractive pictorial section of the book. Not one or two or even five per¬ sons are responsible for the book; it is the work of many. Acknowledgement is due to all who have helped to make the 1924 “W” a success. The Editors.

IfbatP In the year 1922-23, Waukegan Township High School entered the Suburban Debating League, debating Deerfield Higli School and LaGrange High School, on the question, “Re¬ solved, that the Philippine Islands should be given their independence within a period of two years.” The Waukegan debaters tied with New Trier for first place in the Suburban League. The affirmative team last year consisted of Mary Gobrecht, ' 23, Margaret Whyte, ' 23, Yale Schellenger, ' 23, alternate, and Mr. Noll, coach. The members of the negative team were Clarence Olson, ' 23, Harold Liehty, ' 23 and Mr. Zimmerman, coach. This year, besides the Suburban League, Waukegan entered the State Debating League. Material for both the Suburban and state League teams was taken from the Debate Club, formed in the fall of 1923, with Hartley LaChapelle as President and Mr. Noll as sponsor, and fro m Mr. Zimmerman’s fourth period debate class. Last year, the Suburban League Debaters were awarded a special Debate “W,” which was presented at the Commencement Day exercises. This year there are two teams in the Suburban Debate League and two teams in the state Debate League. The members of these teams wil receive special Debate “W’s.” The debaters have worked especially hard and have met some very strong teams. They have gained much glory for the school and deserve recognition. Thus far the two teams in the State League have been victorious in every encounter. The personnel of the teams is as follows: Affirmative: Albert Gerbin, Wilfred Bergh, Dale Baird, Mr. Zimmerman, coach. Negative: Dean Banta, Hartley LaChapelle, Isadore Emmer, Mr. Noll, coach. The State League question is, “Resolved, that immigration to the United States should be prohibited for a period of three years.” One Hundred Twenty-nine tatr Hragur AFFIRMATIVE TEAM Bergh Baird Gerbin Mr. Zimmerman, Coach Each team, thus far, has won two debates. The affirmative team defeated Rockford High School at Rockford on March 21st, by a 3 to 0 decision, and Elmhurst High School on April 10th, by a 2 to 1 decision. The negative team won a 2 to 1 decision over Freeport High School, at Freeport, on April 11th. These victories make Waukegan eligible to participate in the Illinois State Debating Tournament, to he held at Bloomington on May 9th. Six schools, the winners of each district in the state, will compete. If the teams are successful at this meet, Waukegan will be the debate champion of the state of Illinois. NEGATIVE TEAM Mr. Noll.

The club is formed on a somewhat different basis from most of the other school organizations. The purpose of the club is to further the study of mathematics among those who are especially interested in the subject. The club eliminates social activities and limits its membership to those who are taking advanced mathematics, or who are recommended by a teacher of mathematics. • The first regular meeting of the Mathematics Club this year was held on the third Tues¬ day of October. At this meeting officers were elected and a constitutional committee was ap¬ pointed. Regular meetings of the club have been held on the first and third Tuesdays of every month. At the following meeting a constitution was adopted, and a program committee for the year was appointed. Interesting and instructive talks on mathematics as a science and also on the practical uses of mathematics have been given by speakers from within and from without the school. Among these talks was one given by Principal P. G. W. Keller on the psychology of mathe¬ matics. Another enjoyable talk was the one given by Professor Hart of the University of Wisconsin, on “The Methods of Teaching Mathematics.” The study and demonstration of the slide rule has been of special interest to many of the members.

Alice Large I lie Camera Club, a new activity at Waukegan Township High School, was organized during the first semester, by a group of students interested in photography. Miss Replogle, who has had considerable experience in photographic work, is sponsor of the club. The primary purpose of this club is to promote interest in photography. The members have also endeavored to supply a number of snap shots for the annual. At the meetings, which are held twice each month, part of the time has been devoted to the study of the history and development of photography. Considerable time has also been spent in learning the technique of developing and printing. This organization, undoubtedly, will continue to develop and will in time broaden the scope of its work. Alice Large, 24 . One Hundred Thirty-six (Stria’ iKnntrr (Club The Girls’ Rooter Club is no longer just a “tryout,” but is an “up and doing,” well organized club. By boosting football, basketball and baseball, in fact all sports, it has promoted the “W” spirit in every athletic activity. Th is club which had its beginning last year, has grown very rapidly and is now being classed as one of the leading clubs of the school- It has about seventy-five members and all girls of the school are eligible. The faculty sponsor of the club is Mr. Jickling, whose untiring efforts have helped materially in its development. At the first meeting of the year, December 4th, Jessie Strang was chosen President, Mildred Lawson, Vice-President, and Grace Casterton, Secretary-Treasurer. The first thing to do was to get a stunt ready for the Kenosha game. Everyone started the work with great enthusiasm. Before long a song and a number of yells were selected; these were quickly learned and were put on very successfully the night of the game. A number of such programs were given during the year. One in par¬ ticular, which aroused the interest of all, was given in the fifth period assembly, just before the Bloom game. In this program the girls yelled their loudest, and sang a song, directed by Mr. Graham. President Jessie Strang made up the words of the song which compared our school to those of the League. All the rooters have purple arm bands on which appear the three gold letters, G. R. C. The G. R. C. feel that much has been accomplished during the past year, and they are looking forward to further progress in 1925. Edith Whaples- ’ 26 .

The club,, under the leadership of Miss Emma Burgess, leader of the Girls Work in Waukegan W. C. A., and Helen Keller, club president, has been striving to provide plenty of clean, wholesome fun for all of the girls, and at the same time to help them develop themselves—following their triangular symbol which represents the body, mind and spirit ot the girl. The color of the Triangle is the “true blue” of loyalty, and every girl is myal to the club in “facing life squarely” and “finding and giving the best.” Some very successful parties have been enjoyed. Among these were a Hallowe’en party, garden party, surprise parties and a Leap Year Party. Basketball, baseball and tennis teams ha e been organized. On the hikes which the girls have taken, the Knowledge side of the riang’le has been further developed—many birds, insects, trees, plants and flowers have been Studied, and stories of star constellations enjoyed. Initiation and other ceremonials have em¬ phasized the Spirit side of the symbol. The one big idea in every Girl Reserve Club is ,to serve—in school, in church, and in the community Waukegan girls, this year resolved to help at home—assisting mother whenever possible, helping care for younger members of the family and, above all, being pleasant always, in school they have volunteered their services on every possible occasion—have kept fresh cut flowers upon the assembly room desk; kept informed about any schoolmate who might be ill, and sent her “words-oVlieer” and flowers; have acted as ushers and have taken tickets at plays given at school. All of these things and much more does this club plan to do in years to come, and it hopes to increase its membership to as many girls as there are in Senior High. The club members have learned what Service really means: Glennora Cashmore. 25. Row 1. (Upper, left to light). Mr. E. R. Gobrccht, Macklin, Munson, Herberger, Thomas, Kappel, Walthers, Ford, Ed.

It is composed of “live wires,’’ influential fellows who stand for the best in school life. Since the aim of the club is the development of character, the Hi-Y is one of the most important organizations of the school. The first meeting was held in October, and from that time until the middle of April, meet¬ ings have been held every Wednesday. The club has been fortunate in securing for each meet¬ ing a speaker with an influential personality and a. real message for boys. The most important event in the Hi-Y fellows’ calendar is the State Older Boys’ Conven¬ tion. The convention held at Galesburg, was well attended by Waukegan’s young men. They heard wonderful talks by noted men. Each hoy came back enthusiastic over the meeting, and reported to the group or body that sent him. In January the club held a Lake County Conference. To this conference were invited mem¬ bers of the neighboring Hi-Y clubs. Representatives from Evanston, New Trier, Liberty- ville, and other high Schools attended. Incidentally, Deerfield High School, which had no Hi-Y, became so interested, that, with the aid of the Waukegan fellows ' , they started an or¬ ganization of their own. Every year the Hi-Y puts on a Four C’s campaign. The Four C’s are: Clean Speech, Clean Athletics, Clean Scholarship, and Clean Living. George Macklin, ’25.

Meetings have been held on Ihursday, at 6:15, in the Y. M. C. A. The constitution, similar to that of the Hi A C lub, was drawn up by Francis Foley, Stewart Whvte and Harry Edwards, under the supervision of Mr. Davis. Some of the speakers who addressed the club during the season were Mr Keller Mr Muehl and Mr. Brown. At the final meeting of the club, April 17, a here-to-fore unheard of thing—a Mother and Son banquet was given. After the supper and the speeches, a mock trial was presented by the members of the club. Granville Sands, the defendant, was sued for breach of promise by his financee, Gar Yates. (The heart-balm desired by the young lady was said to he fifty- thousand dollars). Mr. Grosche acted as judge; and the visitors composed the jury. The attorneys for the accusation were John Price and Francis Foley, while those for the defense were Ditter Shea and Dewey Lewis. The other members acted as witnesses. The object of the club is to live up to, and help others to live up to the “Four C’s”— Clean Speech, Clean Living, Clean Thoughts, and Clean Sports. Stewart Whyte, ' 27. Ditter Shea, ’27.

The failure of the bank leaves them penniless. Through Mr. Hawkes, Attorney, they learn of the death of Mr. Kingsnorth, Mrs. Chichester ' s brother. The younger sister of the two who married an improvident Irishman has died, leaving a daughter. This daughter is provided for by Mr. Kingsnorth’s will. The Chichesters are asked to take her into their home and by training and environment give her the culture necessary to one of her high an¬ cestry. Needing the money this would bring, they consent to try her. Peg, who is selfish and untrained, is more like her Irish father than her aristocratic mother, and proves a problem to the proper and self-centered Chichesters, but being warm hearted and lovable, she wins them all, including Sir Gerald Adair. The play has a charm and lilt pleasing to the listener. It has also much fine characterization.

RORDP EQR One Hundred Fifty-three HIGH SCHOOL MYTHOLOGY The composer of this story is not very deeply versed in the Theory of Reincarnation, but it seems to him as if some of the old deities have been reincarnated in the following high school students: The only vulnerable spot of Achilles was his heel, while the only vu.nerable spot of Dave Porter is his heart. Adonis was the “sheik ' ’ of the Gods, but Macklin is the “sheik of the basketball team. The mark of Cupid is the human heart, while Cote’s mark is a basket. They are alike in that they seldom miss either. Mars, God of War, is usually depicted as being armed with a sword and shield, but put boxing gloves on him and his name would he Kolbe. Mercury, the wing footed messenger of the Gods, is almost surpassed in speed by our “champ” sprinter, Koziol. Venus was the belle of the goddesses just as Martha Osgood is the belle of the High School.

I The somewhat loosely fitted body of j a few years ago has been replaced by j a solidly constructed, almost airtight j body. But this improvement in con- | struction has brought with it an ac- ? companying problem—Ventilation. s The very small amount of air in a | closed car is soon used up. And while j the small openings in the doors and s windshield let a little fresh air in, I there is no way of discharging the j used air. It rises to the top of the j car and you breathe and rebreathe it. j Here is the way to have real comfort | in motoring in a closed car, whether it j is for long tour or a short ride on the I boulevard. Plenty of fresh, healthful I air without disagreeable and danger- j ous drafts. If your car is parked for any length of time, the air in it will be sweet i and clean when you return. The Ventilex is not only the scientifically correct ventilation I system for the closed car, but it imparts a dressy and distinctive appearance to the car. j THE BIFLEX CORPORATION, Waukegan, Illinois j Export Department: 130 West 42nd Street, New York trade: mark THU CLOSED CAR VENTILATOR SANITATION IN YOUR HOME w V i (J The continued good health of your family—your children—is largely de¬ pendent on the plumbing in your home.
