Arabelle Shaw The Flashlight this year was published bi-monthly instead of once a month as it had been done in previous years. The Flashlight had an added column called 'Who's Who on the Facultyf, which gave the history of each person on the faculty. All those who paid their student activity fees received the Flashlight with their activity ticket. If they were not members of the fund, the charge was five cents per issue. On May 5th the Flashlight was represented at the convention in Columbia, Missouri, by Miss Horn and Dorothy Mclntire. Flashlight received honorable mention for a mimeograph paper. On May 18th the Flashlight staff presented a play named 'gCurses, What A Nightn. It was a great success. Miss Horn was our helpful sponsor whose work we have greatly appreciated. Page Twenty-two

In a tug-of-war between the new and old members, the initiates won. After the ceremonies were over came a cry of 'LSoup's onf, and everybody ate a meal of doughnuts. Later in the year the club went on a hike to the Meramec River. The boys had hot dogs and coffeeg they still wonder where Rollen Shamel put all the hot dogs he ate. Horseshoe pitching and football constituted the sports of the day, the foot- ball game being played on a cornfield gridiron. At the beginning of the new year there was a basketball rally at the Pine Street Y. lVI. C. A. The principal speaker of the evening was Dr. Naismith, who founded the game of basketball. Then a game of old-time basketball was played in which there were fifteen men on each team, dressed in skin-tight breeches and wearing mustaches. The baskets were peach baskets, and the ball was a soccer ball. After some of the basketball games, the Hi-Y held dances in the auditorium. ln an auditorium session the Hi-Y club gave a show of boxing and wrestling. The boxers were Junior Lowe versus Willie Kauz, and as referee Joe Bradford. The referee lost. The wrestlers were Don Gatti versus Tom Brennan, with John Hogan refereeing. Don lRomeoJ Gatti sang a love song in Italian to his sweetheart Tom Uulietl Brennan amid hilarious applause.
