Madison Spracuse Embalming School Twenty-three OUR LAST WORDS WE. the Class of January, nineteen hundred and thirty-three, feeling it necessary to inform the faculty and the underclassmen what we have left intact after our turbulent career in this institution of learning, and having attained the ripe old age and wisdom of seniors do hereby bequeath with all good intentions the following: 1. To Mr. Bennett, our congratulations on his increasing good health. 2. To L'ncle Jim. the satisfaction of having at lea t one lesson recited perfect!’ for him: “hour years of English, etc.'' 3. To Miss Bullard, a collection of fads concerning the sinking of the Lusitania and other subjects. 4. To Miss Bearss and Mr. Lockwood, the grand and glorious feeling of having successfully launched the best senior class yet. (According to our thinking.) 5. To Mr. Watson, specimens of our handwriting to lie shown to future assemblies. 6. To Mr. Keyes, our sincere appreciation of the plays which brightened a few of our assemblies, and more than some of our evenings. 7. To Mrs. Wright, an automatic switch to open all lockers before and aftci school. 8. To Miss Manchester, the hope that there will be a few absent slips left in her office after graduation. 9. To Mr. Sauer, our regret that students didn’t buy a Season ticket, and the merit of beginning such a good plan. 10. To the sub-seniors, the advice not to save seats in the front of the assembly for their Junior friends. 11. To Mr. Coon, our old schedules with their numerous changes that he so loved. 12. To the school at large, the traditions and ideals of the best high school in Rochester. 13. To M iss Davenport, the hope that her future classes will learn to set up apparatus to the right, or is it the left? Relieving this number of thirteen requests to be a lucky omen, we do solemnly set our seal ujjon this worthy document on the 25th day of October. 1932.

Thirty-two N I LITERARY THE FINISH Oh, it's easy to make the start With muscles all tense for the deed. And it’s easy to ran. at the crack of the gun. With legs that just ache for speed. Hut the test of the man is the finish line, II hen the heart must hear the brunt Of the crucial hurt of that one last spurt To breast the tape in front. When your eyes start forth and your breath is spent. And your rival is shoving ahead. And you haven’t the strength to make the grade And your feet seem shod with lead. Remember he of the frantic stride Is feeling just as bad. A moment more and your stock will soar. Tear in. and sprint like mad. Oh. throw yourself at that spanning tape I.ike a bolt from the storm-lashed sea. Tor the prise is the goal of your longing soul. A game man's victory. Thomas T. Kinnanc, Jr. Thirty-three THE SENIOR OCCIDENT OF JANUARY 1933 iflrrru (Ultriatmas By Norval Kkamkk The two were gazing moodily out of the window of the small shack, idly watching the large snowflakes laud «ni the window pane and melt into little stream- lets and then rush madly down to the pane to form a tiny pool at the liottom. Then, one stirred and spoke, and there was a wealth of disgust in his tone: Merry Christmas! That hands we a laugh! The other moved over to the little stove and threw in a chair leg to encourage the undernourished gleam that was the tire. He answered mourn fully, Oh. indeed, business is no longer flourishing. People aren't carrying their valuables about with them these days, it would seem. Why. do you know that this morning I came into close contact with a very rich looking gentleman’s pocket, and what do you suppose I was able to procure? The one bv the window looked up eagerly and reached out his hand quickly for the wallet that was handed him. “Chee, Doc, 1 didn’t know yer made a haul. lie opened it up, gave one look at its contents and threw it disgustedly on the floor. I. ). I .s' Kin ver heat that! and turned morosely hack to the window again. Doc sighed profoundly, nearly blowing out the tiny fire. I could indeed at this moment relish a tender, roasted chicken. His eyes grew rapt as he visualized that savory dish, and he drew in a deep breath as if he could actually smell it tempting odor. “Plain hamburger would suit me. came the doleful answer; and he too sighed a deep sigh which steamed up the window and prevented him from any further observation of the antics of the snowflakes, Listlessly he rose from the window and went over to where the other was tending the lire. Say. Doc. remember last Christmas? Chee. dat was swell! We had loikey and dressin’, and all the fixin’s—and that pie! 'Member the pie. 1)« ? Doc did remember, and they were both silent for a minute, tasting over again that delicious pic. Finally Doc had an inspiration. I say. old fellow, we might have our Christ- mas et. I have an idea! We haven’t tried Worthington Street, and that’s fairly classy. Who knows hut what we shall be able to do business tonight after all? The other looked at him without enthusiasm and remarked, It don’t sound so good, hut I guess anything’s 1 letter than bangin' around here. Let’s go. . So the two of them. Doc and the other, went out into the cold, cold night, slam- ming the door behind them. Although there was no one around, they walked stealthily, from force of habit; and their two shadows, one tall and thin, the other short and burly, melted into the night. Presently they came to the richer section of the city; the streets glowed with people hurrying back and forth. The two disapjieared into the deeper shadows of the night that haunted the circle of light around the street lamps. After some time. Doc whispered to the other, Here’s Worthington Street. You go down that side and I'll go tip here. Meet me here in an hour. Thirty-four THE SENIOR OCCIDENT OF JANUARY 1933 “O. K.’ came a harsh whisper. “So long, One. I’ll he seein’s yer.” And each went his own way. An hour later, the tun met again at the corner, and hurried swiftly homeward. Doc spoke breathlessly. Well, how was business ? “Swell! Say. that was a great idea of yours all right! Now we kin have our Christmas the way we ought. I cleaned up seventy-five smacks! ‘Wot had. not had indeed. I myself procured sixty-four—sixty-four fifty t he exact. Well, old fellow, can’t you just see that chicken now? “And that pic. Doc. Don’t tergit the pie!—What the—! The speaker stumbled over something lying in the stret and mumbled an oath. He started to kick it aside and go on. hut the Doc hissed. Wait! It's moving!” and he stooped down to examine it more closely. Two terrified eyes stared up at him, and a feeble voice cried out. Please, mister, don't hit me! I ain’t done nothin’, honest I ain’t. Why it's a kid! exclaimed the Doc. What’s the matter, boy? The other one looked aghast. Well, ter the—a kid! Kin yer beat that! The weak voice answered. I was a goin’ home, mister, an' 1 si ip] ted an fell. Guess 1 broke my leg or somethin’. 1 can’t walk.” The terror gradually died out of the boy's eyes, and he said timidly. Please, mister, could I go home to me mother? I live over there by the railroad tracks.” Sure, kid. we'll take yer home Kasy now! Am I hurtin' yer? Well, fer the--lie’s gone and knocked himself out. Doc! Hurry up, then. said Doc. We’ve got to get him home. So between the two of them they carried the boy home to his frantic mother and laid him gently on his bed. Doc. living up to his name, fixed the boy up the l est way he could until the family doctor should arrive. The woman went over to the neigh- bor's to call the doctor, and while she was gone, the two looked around them Everything was neat and clean, hut extremely shabby and bare. There was a purse lying on the table. Unconsciously Doc’s hand went towards it. Then he remcmliered himself and drew back shamefacedly. dice, Doc. I bet they ain't got no money. Go ahead, look and see. said the other. So Doc opened the purse, put in his hand and drew it out again empty. The two looked at each other, then they looked over at the lx y in the corner. They looked at each other again: She’ll lie coinin’ hack soon with the doctor. Yes, maybe we better beat it. Simultaneously the two drew forth the wallets from their pockets, took the money out ami put it on the table beside the purse. Then they went out silently, closing the door softly U-hind them.

Thirty-fire THE SENIOR OCCIDENT OF JANUARY 1 9 3 IT REALLY HAPPENED By Margaret Iccleden THE Sunny, brisk autumn days were rapidly turning into the dull, drear, cheerless days of November. Trees, whose leaves, just a short time ago. Iiad been brilliant red and yellow sjiots of color, were now just bare branches silhouetted against a sullen sky. Thanksgiving and then Christmas were fast approaching. Ivan Ondnrf, a tall, shabby man of abunt thirty years ol age |tiickencd his steps as he walked along in the chilly twilight. Maybe the thought of a cheery fire crackling or the aroma of a delicious meal was his incentive. Who knows? finally he turned up a short flight of stone steps, leading to wlrit had once been a proud dwelling hut now bore the marks of a tenement. He opened the creaky door and went quickly in. Hello, there. Lucy. How’s your father to-night?” he greeted a darkhaired young girl who was standing in the hall. ‘‘Better, thank yon Mr. i hulorf,” she replied, secretly wondering why such a usually moody and silent young man had suddenly Income so friendly. She had often asked her father why he had rented the rooms on the top floor to such a person as he—one who was always trying to write music although he never seemed to get anywhere. h well, why worry? They jwii l their rent. As for his mother, she certainly was a dear. Meanwhile, the subject of Lucy’s thought was lxnmding up the stairs to the third floor. He opened a door at the top of the stairs, hurst into a small, rather «lark room, clusjxrd a short, white-haired woman b both hands, swinging her to her feet. “Mother. I’ve lnrcn asked to direct the Christmas concert if my music is ready. Isn't it grand!” Ilis mother nodded. Joyous though she was. she was unable to express hei feelings verbally, liecause she had been horn speechless. Ivan worked every day and sometimes far into the night writing his com- position. l ie knew it would Ik- a success for lie felt he couldn’t fail again. Life is sometimes very hard for those who dream and can’t afford to. lie knew that. Hadn’t lie and his mother felt the tantilizing, cruel pangs of hunger? Wasn’t he used to the cold ? However, he pushed such thoughts to the hack of his mind and worked on! One day in the midst of his work he stopped. What was that singing sen- T nrty-six THE SENIOR OCCIDENT OF JANUARY 1933 nation he felt in his ears? Queer he hadn’t noticed it before. Everything seemed quiet! Strange he hadn’t noticed that he lived in such a calm ncighlxjrhood Hut look, there were children out playing in the street. W hy couldn’t he hear them ? £ Suddenly he put his hands on his ears and exclaimed. Oh God. what have I done that You should do this to me! First, mv father, then me.” He sat down at his piano and played his music. How it soothed his nerves! Kvery vibration comforted him! It was beautiful and he had created it! He told Lucv that he had become deaf and she was kind taking pity on the unfortunate genius. Each «lay she carefully wrote down all the important hap- pening. - of that day and each night it was site who patiently listened to his music and encouraged hint when he found his deafness unbearable. The night of the concert was drawing near. Ivan became more and more nervous. He felt his fate was in his music. Then the night came. It was a crisp, starry night. Snow crunching under- foot and snow topped roofs altove. The concert hall wa a great blaze of color. Christmas was in the air People were happy to Ite together and cheery greetings were heard on all sides Finally the noise was stilled. The concert was aliuut to begin. Ivan waited impatiently to conduct bis own number. What if all bis work were for naught? At last the time came for bis composition. With lmton in hand, he gave the signal to the musicians. The music began. Though his physical ears were deaf, each accustomed note was clearly transmitted to Ivan through his sensitiveness to every vibration. He sensed each little run and twist of the music like a spring bubbling over tiny stones, lie put his whole soul into directing his wonderful coni|M)sition. Then, with a soft, light farewell his music was over. Ivan waited—there must he applause—why didn’t it come? With a slight stoop to Ins shoulders he turned slowly. People were applauding ami smiling broadly at the new genius. He had become so absorbed in the music as he felt every vibration that lie had forgotten he was deaf, and therefore, when lie could not hear the approval of the audience he had felt lieaten again. lie looked at the front row and there was Lucy whose eyes were tenderly smiling at him.

Some folks choose com beef and cabbage; others, studying. Some like painting furniture, and still others favor window shopping. One of my greatest pleasures is a lovely, grey, rainy day. Rainy days are taken by most people with the philosophical attitude that they just have to be. They are filled with little inconveniences: rubbers, umbrellas, wet stockings, and a gen- eral clamjxMting of everything, including spirits. The drain clogs up. nr the rain beats in an open window; Johnny gets tlx sniffles, or the dog tracks up the clean linoleum with his wet paws. To me. however, a rainy «lay i . the most comforting thought I can have. I always think of a bright lire in a dark oak-panelled, low-ceilinged room, and inci- dentally. although I haven’t yet been in such a place, it is my ambition to have a room just like that some day. The rain suggests a wooly sweater, a tweed skirt, an intriguing book, a molasses pop-corn hall, and a comfortable wing chair. Chummy odors arc kept inside. The smell of burning wood, the fragrance of a pine pillow, or the aroma of a cooking meal are so pleasant and real within the closed doors while the rain is heating down outside. ()ne can at last dream and think, and it's a lovely occupation, this building castles in the air while the world is grey. There arc real clouds outside now. alx ve which one can build a satisfying castle. I love the soft greyness of the skies in contrast to the hard brilliance of yesterday’s copper sun. Such a day has a soothing, enveloping peace, and when one has a chirky red-striped umbrella she can call the world her own. Anyone who finds a rainy «lay unintercstitng loses all my sympathy. If it were not for such «lays life would be too much of a hurried race. It seems to me as if the Earth itself were taking a holiday of rest and I. for one, am an ardent follower of such a plan. “Give me a house by the side of the road, IPith the 7i'i)id and the rain outside, A book, a fire, a moment to dream. And peace in my heart jAll reside The cloud of worry which bedaubed the skies of yesterday Has vanished on and off into eternity—aivay. Oh Mighty Power, or if Pate Thou be. Thanks of the body, mind, and soul arc unto Thee! Relief and joy—the earth again may sing— Tis things like that make life interesting. —Dorothy J. Morris.

When over all that lay asleep There shone a glorious star; The lonely shepherds quaked to see It i ins of such a sice. Its blinding rays of purity Did flood all eastern shies; They bowed and hnelt in sudden fear. Reside their trembling flochs, That ceased their grazing and drew near To shclt'ring shrubs and rochs. They feared the mighty hand of Fate So neither cried nor stirred. Wlu n all at once the I cairn's gate Swung ?ci'de, and then they heard A great Angelic host proclaim. The world's Ring has come! Christ Jesus is your Master’s name; Fear not! for He has come! Rise up. rise up. and journey fat This night, to Bethlehem; Vou'll find Him lying Heath that star, His royal diadem! That night across the desert came Three Oriental Rings, For though they had great pomp and fame And precious worldly things.

The Countess Gloria Du Preaux was landing in merica from Prance. As she came down the gangplank with her dog in her arm. her picture was snapped by reporters from nearly every newspaper in New York. That night a party was to he given in her honor by the Van Gelders, one of the leaders of New York society. It was to he a grand affair, for everyone was anxious to make the grand lady feel at home. The Countess was the usual type of snob. She was pleasingly plump, a blonde, and the kind who must always have her dog near her. In her spare time, which she had a lot of. she lounged around in pajamas, read love stories and munched candy. Nevertheless. New York fell ior her. for she was a lady with a title. ' '.nests liegan to arrive early, and by eleven o'clock the ballroom was glittering with satin and velvet gowns and sparkling jewelry. i hitside. now and then taking a look at tin- gay party, stood Don Martin, star society re- porter of the Times. He was there to get all the information about thin wonderful party. How lie envied them! He would like to be in there dancing. As he stood there surveying the happy scene he decided that Jean Harring- ton was the prettiest girl on the floor. He had met hri on several occasions and had long ago decided that he could care for her. Put he could say nothing alxuit it. for millionaire’s daughters and newspaper reporters were not meant for each other. The only real break he’d ever had was his job on the paper. h well, he was just unlucky m love. He did not like the looks of the man Miss Harrington was dancing with, lie was shifty-eyed and had a moustache, the very sort that makes a good villain in a play. Still, he found himself wish- ing that he was that man and dancing with Jean and smiling down at her. Suddenly the lights went out; a hysterical scream rent the air. More screams and the lights were on again. The Countess had fainted and her pearl necklace was gone. She was soon revived but was too ill to talk. Miss Harrington’s jewels and those of other guests were also missing. Then footsteps approached Don and a voice demanded who went there. Without waiting for a reply, the owner of the voice dragged om hero into the house. The shifty-eyed man proved to be Martin's escort. This was an embarrassing sit tuition to l e in. especially when your ideal was present. However, when the police arrived he was pronounced all right and identified as the “window-peeping reporter from the Times. The Countess had retired and with her went Precious, the dog who had occupied the place of honor on a cushion on the grand piano. Thus, the guests left after l eing searched and questioned. The party had not been such a success. That night Martin thought it all over but could not remember who had been near that light switch. Chauncey Dexter, our shiftv- eyed friend, had liecn dancing with Miss Harrington near the window on the other side of the room from the switch. Well, he would work on it tomorrow. Tough luck for the guests and the Van Gelders. hut what a story for him! The next day he called on Miss Harrington to find out a few things about Dexter. Now, Miss Harrington, tell me al mtt last night, just where you and Mr. Dexter were. I was dancing with Mr. Dexter near the window, when suddenly the lights went out and I felt my necklace slide from my neck, and my bracelet slipped from my arm. Did Mr. Dexter stay with you? I don’t know when he left, hut lie wasn't there when the lights went on, but soon came in from outside with you.” Thank you, Miss Harrington. I'm sorry to trouble you. I’m glad to be of assistance. I hoj e you solve the mystery. Forty V v ' I ' A Ik tix k his departure, and his heart was light, for she had smiled at him. a humhle newspaperman. He’d find an excuse to call on her again. lie was sure that it was an inside job. He resolved to work on tlte case until the end. 1 le decided to call on the Countess. She must he all right though, for her pearls were stolen and she had fainted; still maybe this was just a blind ’ A week passed, and hope was given up of ever seeing the lost jewels or the thieves again. The Countess was still confined to her room, for she had received a terrible shock. Within the next week Don interviewed her hut gained nothing by it, ex- cept that he didn’t think she was ill enough to he in lied. She certainly was a fool over that dog. He began to suspect the Countess and Dexter. He bad seen Dexter go into her hotel many times, but still that was no reason to think he called on her. Then, came the tele- phone message i r o m Miss Darrington, asking him to call at her home. Well, this was luck for Don. She wanted to tell him tliat the person that took the pearls was standing in front of her. for she felt the arm around her neck, and that also the Countess had liecn sitting near the light switch when the lights went out. “I wanted to help you. rather than the police, but, please, I don’t want any publicity. Thanks a lot. It will help me a lot ii I can solve this problem. Could I help?” Why 3'cs. I’d be glad to have you if you really want to. He was to come hack the next evening at eight o’clock to figure out a plan. As lie went away, he thought how lucky it was for him that the Countess had decided to come to America and bring him all this unlockedfor luck. Promptly at eight o’clock the next evening, the reporter was ushered into the Darrington drawing room. Soon Jean came down, and for an hour they talked of their plans. Jean was to call on the Countess the next afternoon. The Countess was in, a n d the two society women talked of differ- ent social events for two hours. Then Jean saw something. She almost gasped aloud. There on the table was the very necklace that Gloria had worn at the party. As she was leaving, she ran into Chauncey Dexter who was just entering. Well, she had learned two things; that the Countess and Dexter had something in common, and that w as I h c Countess’ necklace. )f course, she had no proof that the necklace was tlu same one she had worn that night. Don was glad to hear this news, and it was decided that he should call at the hotel the next night, unknown to the Countess. Then, that night a thought come to Martin that Precious had never barked when the lights went out. He asked Jean about it. but she had been too excited to notice. Outside the Countess’ living room window on the balcony, the next night, stood Don Martin, reporter on the Times. He saw Dexter come at eight. He heard them talk alxmt things lie didn’t care for. 1 Ic saw them leave for the opera. (Continued on o e VICTORY! The Occident Short Story Contest hai come to an end.

Alumnus' words, like those of an oracle, stand true in any test, for the only thing that looks as foolish as a little frog in a big puddle is a Harvard freshman. As I entered the gate to 1 harvard yard, one fine fellow stepped up, took my baggage, and led me to my room. His technique was per- fect. I never knew he wanted to sell me any- thing until I was thanking him for his kind welcome. I had just told him how well he fulfilled the 1 larvard tradition of courtesy, when he smiled a wicked smile, pulled out a contract and pen, and asked me to send my dirty clothes to the Students’ Laundry. That’s the last time I ever thought anything about Harvard courtesy. My experience with it has been too painful to allow further speculation on its merits. In the Union halls there are cases filled with the trophies of althctic conquest. How signifi- cant that they should he exhibited in the dining hall! Let’s climb the stairs slowly and look at the pictures of ancient Harvard athletes. Like Samsons they sprawl among their teammates, their great unshaven faces reminding us that man is the result of evolu- tion. Bill now. at the lop of the stairs, we have reached the windowed hall from where the rating freshmen may he viewed. From tlii- vantage students ga .e upon their acquaint- ances and freely discuss them while they cat unsuspectingly below. If you dislike some- one it is only necessary to stand at these win- dows long enough and you will meet a fellow- hater. Many friendships arc formed here by expressions of common dislike. The place could be called either I later’s Haunt or Friend- ship Hall with equal verity. Any essay about Harvard wouldn’t lie com- plete unless it mentioned a custom unique to the college yard. Until a few years ago, al! students who lived in college buildings lived in the Yard. Then the University built fine Houses for the upper-classmen. They moved out of the Yard. The freshmen were left, and with them there remained the custom- yelled, “Rhinehardt.” Late at night when every fellow is studying, a long drawn cry. Rhinehardt,” is sent volleying from hall to ball. The yell gains volume as the studying crowd ceases its work and lets loose its shout. Suddenly the yell stops. Evcrylxidy laughs. Here and there a voice calls again, but the spirit that moved the crowd has waned, silence is restored to the Yard. If assignments are especially burdensome, tlie yell will be related that evening, but on average nights the cry may occur but once. None of the students seemed to know how this custom began, but President Lowell knew, and he told tins story of its origin. In the late Nineties there was a lonely stu- dent who lived in the Yard Rhinehardt longed for companionship but tlu fellows shunned him. Existence was miserable for this boy until he thought up a plan of home-made popu- larity. Kacli evening lie opened his window, ran down-stairs, and shouted,, “Rhinehardt.” Then, running up-stairs, lu- called down, ‘‘Hello.” Rushing again to the place below his window he hollered, “Are you coming out tonight ?” When he was back in bis room Rhinehardt answered, Maybe. I'll see if 1 can finish this work early.” The suddenness of the lonely fellow's popu- larity caused wonderment and suspicion, which led the other students to discover and expose Khinehnrdt’s plan. Since then the custom of wiling Rhinehardt,” has become a tradition oi Harvard Yard. To various students, Harvard is a serious life, a joke, or an unfathomable puzzle; hut to me, it is a combination of all these living, laughing, puzzling phases. Life at Harvard is real. Work is the motive of that life and the ‘•••«th that makes men free” is its goal. 'nrly-hto A hi,, c'Pew. My Prince Charming Every jt irl in the world, at some time in her lift , usually in her “teens. dreams of a Prince Charming. Slit makes this Prince her ideal. He possesses all the good characteristics any girl could wish for. He is perfect in her estimation. He is always handsome, and some- times rich. I. too, have a dream man, and I’m going to try to give you an idea of what 1 want my Prince to lx . I want him to lx honest and a good sport in everything. I don’t care if he swears. Of course, 1 don't want him to swear every other word, hut almost every man. in order to ex- press an opinion, must use a little harsh language. I don’t care if he smokes. It is masculine. It seems to he a pleasure, and of course I want him to Ik happy. I draw the line at drinking. 1 don’t want him to Ik soft or sentimental. 1 want him to Ik dominant or the cave-man Lypc. I hate to see a man whom a woman can wrap around her little tingor. I want his respect and love at all times, hut as this is only an ideal lx y friend aljout whom I am writing. 1 don’t care if it is only puppy-dog love. His religion does not matter. Catholic. Protestant, or Jew. as long as he believes in God. 1 don’t desire a perfect person, for with such a one there is no fun. He should he. popular with everyone; a good dancer, and able to play some instrument. I want him to enjoy cards. A sense of humor is a good quality, too. A wise crack now and then helps a con- versation along. Naturally, I want him to have a good education. I should want him to he active in all sjmrts and games. Neatness and politeness are good points, tern. As for looks. I prefer the tall, dark type. Brown or Idack hair, brown eyes, even teeth, and an ordinary nose arc my idea of a hand- some face. He need not he rich. Money doesn't mailer to me. A show, a dance, a siqiper now and i hen would content me. Although a girl hardly ever gets the type of man she dreams of, that's my idea of an ideal l ov friend. 1 can’t make you see him as I see him, hut I think I've given you the main ixiints I want niy dream boy to possess. My Ideal Girl Friend Who wants to have a perfect girl-friend. 1 don’t lielicvc there is such a thing as an ideal girl-friend. Nevertheless, a girl should have certain characteristics. She should, to lx? ideal, he beautiful, but unfortunately, few girls would take a beauty prize. Nevertheless, a girl can make herself attractive, and that is an important characteristic. She should wear pretty clothes and make herself as comely as possible. She should Ik of average height and have a well-proportioned form.

By Jean Haslii The senior class attempted t have a party; U failed to materialize because of lack of co- o] cration. This tact is trivial, though the principle involved is of phenomenal import- ance.

Any attempt at a class function invariably flops. If these are the results of the present policies, why not make an attempt at unification? class is hut a miniature government. It is here that the seeds of good polities should be cultivated. Then later in life, a transition of these acquired ideals will prove beneficial in regard to national politics. 'I'he seniors, at any rate, should have reached the degree of intelligence to realize that consolidation and co-operation are the only means of establishing an effective body. I’cr- haps if they were a highly organized group, taking pride in their achievements, the other classes could lx- lured into following the pre- cedent set by them.

It is to their own Ex-Teacher Now Vice-principal By Dominic Paris Doctor Charles H. llolzwarth. former West High teacher, is not a new acquaintance. In 1914 he came to West High as head of the Modern Language Department. In 1919 lie was recognized as an outstanding leader of Modern Language in our own city. During that year lie became the acting director of Modern Languages of the High Schools of Rochester. He held this position for several years. Docfr Holzwarth's education liegan at No. 8 School. After graduation from that school, he attended the Rochester l rcc eademy, now the Board of ('duration build- ing. He was a member of the last graduating class. The following year lie attended Last High School. After graduation he went to the University of Rochester for two years, and then went to the University of Syracuse. After graduation from there, he attended the Uni- versity of Leipzig in Hermany. In P 26 he was appointed vice-principal of Monroe Junior-Senior High School, lie re- mained as vice-principal until 1929, when he decided to take a trip abroad. In 1930 he returned to Rochester and regained his posi- tion as Director of Modern Languages in the High Schools of Rochester. At present.

Pori v-.vu A t • . Syl Novelli Talks By Mary Comrkai.e J c and my piano— Now you're talking. Syl Novelli speaking—l ut at one of his rare speaking moments. It just doesn’t fit—a shy orchestra leader in this day of baton wielders. Going as far as springing a Greta Garbo on his would-be interviewer is just a bit too much. The big man ot mystery is the same Syl who thrilled feminine hearts with his radio broad- casting a few moons back; the one who had them ga-ga at Madison when he led the Show Boat orchestra there; and the one who’s sla ing them here with the W est High orchestra. Notwithstanding all this glory, this wholesale heart-wrecker is still at large. Add whispers —he’s a woman hater. S I has bec-n coaxing the ivories for a good part ot his life and he expects to continue as long as jazz is king. He has an orchestra of his own with which he hopes to make Colom- 1 0 5 and Vallee’s sound like a couple of rattle factories. Quite ambitious, if you ask me. The W est High orchestra is not his own. After the 1932 edition of West High Nights went down in history, Mr. )st orne gave Syl full charge of the orchestra for school danc- ing (thank you Mr. Osborne). t present, the orchestra is about to undergo a change. Thir- teen is too notorious for Syl: he hopes to reduce it to the convenient numlier of six. At the time of writing. Mr. Novelli was wrapped body and soul in the production of the ’( iarliage Man.” Says Syl. “Music is the thing—and I’ll furnish it.” Watch him. West High, lie’s due for great things! Frank Stevens, an outstanding singer in W est a few years back, is singing tenor in a mixed quarter which is featured every Sunda evening over station Mil M at 8:00 P. M. John Remington sings bass in the same quartet. Council Progress Continues By Sarapiiine Rivers Within a lew weeks after its first successful step, the Executive Council has launched a new movement, another by-law to the consti- tution. Due to the length and intricacy of this by-law, I shall not attempt to explain it in detail. It is based upon the Hare System. In- stead of having t struggle through the tedious routine of voting until a person has receiver! the necessan majority, this system enables tin Council to cast its votes for the required number of candidates all on the same ballot. Before proceeding to choose these candidates, however, the Council fixes, bv motion, the exact number it wishes t«« place in nomina- tion and the required quota for election. Through this plan, the possibility of certain fraternity groups ' r other factious gaining con- trol of the Council is eliminated. Both the faculty and Council members are confident that there is no default in this plan. As a whole, the method is thoroughly representa- tive and efficient, and will la a firm foundation for future Council nominations. In our acceptance of this hv-law, the Urri- d'nl wishes to express thanks to Mr. Stowell, commissioner of elections, wlio has worked hard and long that West High government may run smoothly and satisfactory. Scientists Club The Scientist’s Club has struck into its stride. The first meeting started off with a hang. About twenty-five fellows reported and a program committee was appointed t « furnish the topic for discussion at each meeting. TIktc will Ik a meeting every other week, and the alternate week, a trip will he made t a factory or a plant. Mr Smith says that llu- Scientist’s Club will afford extra credit to chemistry and physics students if the club proves worth while. l:orly-scVcn A' I • y Unseen and Absurd By Roger Maloney A handsome young man. who. we know, would not like his name divulged, went into a phone booth in the hamburg emporium across the street and put through a call to the only one. “Hello ’ came the feminine voice. “Hello, ai l he.

West Plays Santa By Eleanor Stringer For years it has been the custom of the students and faculty of the public schools in Rochester to participate in some way or other toward making Christmas just a hit happier for those less fortunate than we. Recently. West has done its part by contributing food to fill baskets to l e distributed to the needy. 'Plus year, because of the scarcity of funds, the City Council of Social Agencies has urged the faculties in the various schools to con- tribute money toward a very worthy cause which provides rubbers and galoshes for the needy. The students have been requested for a continuance of their wholehearted support in supplying either food or money for food to replenish the baskets. With Miss Storey as its chairman, the faculty committee is comprised of the follow ing members: Mr. Coon. Mr. Naramore, Mr. Pickard. Mr. Slater, Miss Carey, Miss Dc land, Mrs. Hoefler, Miss Hogan, Miss Man- chester, Mrs. Nash. Miss Verna Robinson, and Mrs. Rourke. The student committee has at its head as publicity managers, Josephine liagstrom and John Remington.

The one-act plays are as vet undecided. Philip Barry’s The Youngest, ' is under con- sideration for the coming three-act. The Choir is busy preparing several selec- tions which will be sung at the annual choral festival at Monroe High in January. This yearly event is held to give the high school choruses an opportunity to hear the work that each group is doing. In the post, these festi- vals have been very popular with the choirs. Since every high school choir sings, each one endeavors to do its lx;st work and a very pleasing program is presented. 'I he feature group at the festival will be the Inter High School Choir. After-School Dancing The promising campaign speech of Elmer Myers lias at last been put into effect. Several very enjoyable afternoons have been spent dancing t« the tunes of Syl Novelli s orchestra. An unusually large crowd turned out fur this revived social function; ami it appears that tlu overwhelming success of the first dance will lie t«i a great extent very influential in continuing them regularly. For a long time there was continual lis cusshm as to whether or not this social move would be promoted, and now that it lias let’s do our best to keep the old pot boiling. If the interest already shown becomes at all slack, the committee in charge will not feel it worth- while to bother giving the students a good time. Naturally, if no school spirit is exer- cised in these matters, it is then only logical that tliev 1m discontinued. Up to the present the school feels entirely successful in the advancement of the project. Just a Slogan or Two Boots Schrader: Sunkist. Norma Hurlburt: Often a cloud of «lust.

The ten-second pro- vision provides that a team must advance the hall past tnid-court within ten seconds after getting passession of it. One of the reasons tor agreeing not to use the rule was that it was felt teams using the zone defense would get an undue advantage. All other rules are being followed. Although the fall sports are now over and the winter season is well under wav. here is a hit of gridiron cleverness which liorders on the theatrical, and proves that a coach may he smart in other things than the fundamental rules of football. It concerns the game be- tween Brown and Holy Cross, in which the former, in the last two minutes of play, won hv a trick. You may recall that neither team had beun defeated or tied, and that Brown was lighting for national recognition. The score at the time was 7 to 3 for I July C ross, and Brown had jmssession of the hall near the Holy Cross goal line. Then came the play. It went like this: With the teams lined up. waiting for the hall to he snapped, the spectators noticed that there was some sort of controversy in tile Brown backlield. Chase and Gilmartin, Brown’s hack- field stars, were involved in an argument, and noliody seemed to know what it was aliout. Possibly they differed on tin choice of the next play, or perhaps ('base was for Roosevelt and Gilmartin was try ing to do some late election- t'ifty eeriug for Hoover. The sjiectade of two hacks engaged in a heated argument at such a time was enough to capture the attention of the bystanders, and the bystanders included the Holy Cross players. They relaxed for a moment to stare at the delators, and in that moment, the hall was snapped and Frank Gammino went over the line for the touchdown that defeated Holy Cross. It was part of tbr- act, and it brought down the house. West's basketball team engages m three double-benders' this season, and one triple- header. Two of the double hills liave nlread Ixten played, ami the triple-header” was played on Thanksgiving night when West went down to defeat at the hands of Painted Post. Incidentally, that defeat i nothing to Ik? ashamed of, for last year tlu squad from Painted Post was one of the best in W estern New York, and apparently tin;, year is keeping up its past record. Write down in your little note hook tlu dates Friday, January 13 l unlucky for Hast), and Friday, February 17. as the dates of the annual East-West classic. West, this year, although it appears to have a very fast team, lias an inexperienced one with only Eddie Pulvino lack from last year's team. W hen Tech won tlu soccer championship this year, it was their first title since l' 27, when West began its championship reign. East High is tlu only oilier school ever to have topped the honor. re we taking Olu soccer ton seriously r Here is an article from Argentine tliat reads: , .l■ , , “Loon Arismendi. refereeing a soccer game here yesterday, was shot in the head and critically wounded by A. Celadilla. president of the Soccer Club, when he refused to allow Celadilla's team a penalty kick.” Hop bottles have always been the Yankee bouquets for umpires who have offended, but never a leaden pill. Marshall, according to pre-season dope, is favored to cop the basketball championship. Marshall has four veterans hack, including Sonderman, last year's high scorer, and Nick Xucchi. So far. Marshall has borne out the pre-season dope, but the race will l e a close one with Marshal], Tech, and Charlotte favored. W est is having the homeroom basketball league again this year, under the able leader- ship of Mr. Cone. The league contains almiit ten teams. At the end of the season, the homeroom that has won the most games will receive a pennant. 'Pile purpose of homeroom basketball is to extend the privilege of super- vised recreation to those who are unable to make regular teams. The howling team, this year, is made up. for the most part, of newcomers and hoys who have never howled before. The only veteran on the squad is Captain Gilbert Vcith. )ther members are Repp. Keplcy. Groli. Heffcr, W'erth. and Light. Cagers Start Season liv Jack Bkxnktt West High’s inexperienced five went down before the onslaught of Sodus and Painted Post in their first two games of the season. West led until the last quarter, but lacked the necessary drive to hold their own. Sotlus de- feated West 23 to 22 as likewise did Painted Post 20 to 17. Our hoys came hack the following week with a brilliant display of basketball, and downed the Alumni 27 to 21. Many former West stars, such as Eddy and Tommy Kewin. Louy Deutch. Mike Williams, A! DeAnntinzio. George Deforrest, and Reggie Westbrook, a member of the last W est team to defeat East, and later a star at West Point, comprised the Alumni team. Eddy Pulvino, lone returning veteran from last year’s team, was chow.i captain of the Occidentals. Others on the squad are: Cor daro. Prciss. Howe, 11 ad sell. Drum. Brown. Winkleholtz. Obdykc. YYlrted. Provenzano. Blanchard. Beal. Calnon, Rowley. Prospects for Swimming The swimming team is hoping t continue its record by winning the city championship for another year, making seven such victories in all. The team is faced with a hard schedule, starting early in December If it is as suc- cessful as it lias been in the past, the team will make two two-dav trips; one to Syracuse and one to Niagara Kails-. This serves as an incentive for the mcm- l er.s. The veterans are the Myers brothers. Haefle, Herman. Stoddard, Ammering. Karrell. Lehman, and Robinson. With the old material and the new group from Madison, including Townsend and Williams. West should cop the first place with all its laurels, once again.

J'i fly-one Girls Athletes In Many Activities IjY Ki.IZABKTH Ekk N ) Y that tin- white snow covers all the the land about school. it seems almost improbable that once girls shouted joy «msly at volley hall on the green campus, or that fierce battles t friendly ones of course) ensued on the sun-drenched tennis courts at the athletic field. These things were once realities, however, and when the smoke of the tournaments had cleared away, the sophomores had won the volley hall championship. The enthusiasm of the younger girls for volley hall insures them a good time out-of-doors next spring. Ruth Bagley and Hellen Murphy were the victors in the doubles tennis tournament, and are already challenging all ouconiers for the singles tournament in May. When it was announced that axial dancing would be taught one night every week in the gym. so many people signed up that the regis- tration had to lx limited to juniors and seniors. Xow, every Friday after school the tantalizing strains of the latest hits, played by Mrs. Pred- morc, seem to tell the girls listening outside the gym. that the 70 juniors and seniors taking instruction in social dancing under Miss Fisher and Miss Dunbar art having a most wonderful time. Why do the girls taking gym. hand thin dimes to one of their number, who carefully crosses oil the name of the doner and then dis- appears on tip toe into the gym office? The Board of Kducation is short of funds, due to some unknown cause called the depression. This shortage reacts in the Health Education department iti several ways. It deprives the g m classes of an accompanist; so that in desperation the classes have handed together and subscribed enough money t have Mrs. Predmore play for them for rhythm and danc ing one day a week. Then again, it is neces- sary to have twice as many members in the swimming classes at Madison in order to have an instructor. As no more than the usual number signed up this term, there is no West High swimming at Madison. Therefore, the depression has got the gym department of West High School. The gay orange poster in the main ball, with the letters G. A. A. on it. is more than a poster. It is the Athletic Honor Roll, and all girls earning more than fifty points have their names inscribed there. Edith Stangland and Fred Robinson created it. and are aching to add more names to tin long list. Fall is nice with all its tennis, swimming, volley ball, golf, riding, and soccer; but the winter sports are so much nicer. Then we can indulge in skating, tobogganing, skiing, long moonlight slcighrides, and best of all—the thing that keeps us alive, that makes us quick on our feet, deft in judging distances, the sport we really wait for year in and out—basketball. It is especially exciting this term for no class tournaments arc played. The girls are put on equal teams -equal number of good and i oor players and four nights of the week, basket- ball reigns supreme in the girls' gym. Different teams play each night, and some of the older girls referee with an instructor when they are not playing. Many a fine point of Imskethall is brought out and learned, per- haps for the first time through one of these volunteer referees. With whistles blowing, command!; snapping, the cold air blowing snow upon the beads of the active players, the girls of West High learn the rules of lrasketball. Not only do they learn the rules of the game, the learn to lx good sports, and to pull for the team rather than for themselves. These can lie used not only in basketball, hut also in all the work they endeavor to do. Co; What did Romeo say to Juliet when he met her on the balcony? Ed: Couldn't you get seats in the orchestra?

The Occidental outfit, due to a bad break of circumstances, has finished the season tied with East for fourth place.

Coach Smith states the causes tor the loss of the champion- ship as being: I. At the Itcginning of the sea- son. only two veterans were on hand around which to build a ehamponship team. 11. Prank Cordaro was out of the line up for three of the seven important games, and III. Although the team was good, it was. for the most part an experienced outfit.
