Though changed till the resemblance to the original has vanished in its entirety, all embody the idea of the original skeleton, Why, thenf the past so dominante does the world go on? There is but one source of power: spirit-the .spirit of industry, the spirit of progress, and the spirit that comes from knowing that more is gained in striving than in achieving. Here, then, is presented a book whose aim is to set forth the spirit that can bridge the gaps which separate the romance of the past, the realities ofthe present, and the ideals of the future. Z?

Hutzrg In our daily associations with you, Mr. Yutzey, throughout the year, we have watched you as you worked beside us. Your willingness to do small tasks and, following their achievement, your eager- ness to do larger ones, your quiet, modest manner of workingg your acceptance and accomplishment of tasks other than your own-all these we saw as you worked beside us. However it is not because we, a small group, ap- preciate you that we dedicate our book to you but because, through this medium, we have the oppor- tunity to express thefeeling for you that is universal.

' We sing to thee and bring to thee Our love, dear Western High, When the air is filled with storm clouds, And the rain obscures our way, May we see the silver lining Even though the sky seems gray.

My Autobiography School Spirit Elf CI-IOOL SPIRIT is the name my, mother gave me, since she was the Elf of Schooldays, it is most appro- priate. My appearance is hardly to my credit, as I am short and quite rolly-polly, and have a crooked eyebrow and a turned- up nose. In spite of this, however, I'm very jollyg and since school is a new and thrilling experience to me, I always smile broadly so my teeth, which are very white, show and perhaps make up for my other ' faults. I am especially fond of red, so I always wear a bright red suit and a white cap with bells on it. You wont be surprised to know that I delight in doing things which make boys and girls happy and help them to enjoy school life. Somehow or other I am always a help when a person is trying to write an essay, so when I-Iarold Des Austels and Katrina Williams were trying for a prize in the flag contest, I hopped on the chalk board, and the words fairly danced before their eyes, of course, when the judge awarded the niedals, each received one, Test week is the time when the students were racing with each other to see 5 vi lx really appreciate meg and on the last tests, I stuck jean Crebbin, Robert Edmonds. and Le Royjohnson with the Pin of Knowl- edge, and all of them wrote A tests and of course received all A report cards. Moreover, I felt in such fine spirits last week that when Elizabeth Burns, Rachel Griffith, and Dorothy Tallion who could get an all A report card first, I followed them around so diligently that they received I all A's at the same time. Margaret Thorns is especially fond of me because on the day of the declamation contest I sat on her shoulder and encouraged her so much that all three judges gave her the decision. The best service that I did anyone in this school was that of helping I-Iarold Bern- stein, who is in the band, to play the right notes on his instrument, he was grateful to me, too. I am fond of boys who like sports. Ty juras, who by the way is small enough to be my brother, is manager of the basket- ball team and I helped him to do his work so well that now he is a general favorite among the boys.

Chapter II AM a very versatile person, and I like to make friends among all of the students. I-Iowever, when I mingle with the juniors, my appearance has to change, they are much too digni- fied to like a person who resembles a sophomore. Because of this I have grown just a little taller, and my eyebrow is a little more crooked, that's from raising it so much, I suppose. Nevertheless I still like to help people enjoy going laughter. At the last all-school dance when Lawrence Fullington played his guitar and sang popular songs, I joined in the chorus, and everyone talked for a week afterward of his ability as an entertainer. Only last week when Kenneth Hartwell was struggling to make the wings of his model airplane balance, I jumped on one wing and then everything was all right. I haven't said much about SLI. .nl A N JW' f ,a 'drill' fi i,g'i,j-g5 'vxfggal' to school, and so when I armed my- self with the Pin of Knowledge again, the first thing I knew Mar- jorie Lyons, jacob Schwartz, and Ruth Zorn were having their names on the honor roll, and Margaret Vance and Gen- eva Cullen were close behind them. I'm especially fond of helping people who like to amuse othersg so when George Phillips, who is one of my honor students, was telling a jewish story to entertain the girls at a Rankin meeting, I tickled his ribs until the story was so funny that everyone nearly rolled on the floor with sports, but I'm very fond of them, and I always sit on the cheer lead- ers megaphone and yell very loud- ly, At the last game when things were going badly for the Western Reserves, I hopped on the basket and acted so much like a magnet that William lvlaier couldnt help making a basket, and Western won. Mingling with the juniors has taught me that School Spirit is an important part of school life, and since I want to be a credit to my family, I'm trying my best to make a success of it.

Chapter III N SPITE of the fact that all of the eleventh grade are considered juniors, I find it necessary to grow older when I associate with the ll-A students. Nevertheless I haven't changed much in my appearance except that my eyebrow is a little more angular and my arms and legs have grown a little longer. Only yesterday I came face to face with Alice lwliller when she was writing a Latin test, and when I perched on her pen to help her write, she did so well that she received an A on her card, and when I stuck Norman fslaas and Edith Kemeny with the Pin of Knowledge, they got all A's on theirs. is footballg and Harry Cook, the captain, and Robert I-Iomer are two of my pet prodigies. At the beginning of every game I tie myself to the ball, and Western can't help making a touchdown. Then in the winter time we have hockeyg and whenever jack Grieger plays in a game, I attach myself to the stick and kick the puck so hard that he always makes a goal. In the second semester comes basketball, and I always sit on Robert Suders shoulder and direct his plays, so of course he is very valuable to his team. Last, but not least, is baseballg and as I am an ardent fan I go to the games and cheer Louis Perry, he is becom- IQI il fir X I really have neglected to mention anything about girls' sports, but I certainly didnt mean it. Why, Anna Gedris and I are so friendly that when she started to train for basketball, I went to every game with her, and she played so well she was elected to the All-City girls' team. The library is one place of which I am especially fond, because of the quiet at- mosphere and the nice orderly shelves of books, so I always do my best to help Margaret Blaser and Elizabeth Scott keep their shelves in good order and file their cards correctly, I'm very glad that there are sports for the whole school year. In the fall there ing quite a star. Talking is something of which I'm very fond, so john Makar and I are friends. Whenever he is debating I sit on the judges' bench and help him along so that he nearly always wins. While speaking of talking, perhaps I ought to say that I owe a debt to the Beacon staff, for they have helped me to prominence, so I like to scurry around and bring Margaret I-Iamblin all the ideas I can for her feature section. I have had a nice time mingling with thejuniors, but I've grown quite wise in my appearance. Page Forty-eight N A ,V PN-K, I f ff?

Instead of being rolly-polly as in my freshman days, I have grown tall and slim and my eye- brow is very crooked, but I still carry my Pin of Knowledge with me and enjoy sticking people with it, When Alberta Long, Philip Resnack, and ,loc Poszywak were struggling with their mid-semesters, I hopped in the Quick and Thomas Iles with so much School Spirit that they played splendidly and Western was successful. I am an ardent promoter of organiza- tions which help brighten school activities, so when Beatrice johnston was elected to the Student Council, I filled her head with so many clever ideas for school dances and other affairs that the council year was very successful. Then, too, clubs are very necessary in 5' li' f Ya door and filled them with so much ambition that they broke all records for writing A tests, and so of course they received all A's on their cards. On one of the darkest days of the year, I jumped in the library door, and suddenly Virginia Stol and Bessie Ifrealig were running a race to see who would check the library books the faster, and when Donald Steinhagen felt my presence, he was so inspired that he wrote a perfect editorial. Tennis is one of my favorite sports, and as soon as the season opens I am always around the courtsg in fact, I like it so well that whenever Ted Kiddon is playing, I sit on the net and direct him and he always wins. Speaking of sports, I am very fond of basketball, Last winter I went to all of the games and my presence filled Harry tal a schoolg and when julia lylartin bc- came president of Rankin, I was very anxious that she should succeed so I went to all the meetings, joined in the singing and debates, and livened things up in every way. I mentioned the annual once before. and I came in contact with it again when Elizabeth Richards was trying to edit the undcrclass section of the BEACON. I wanted someone to write my biography and when I asked her to do it she was delighted, and she insisted that I call it an autobiography and here it stands. I've had a splendid time mingling with the people of the different grades in Western, and I want every boy and girl in school to remember that, if they look for me, I am always to be found, Page Forly-nine ff? avr Im 'W M' 14 1 1 I i I X Page Fifty-two I ar ffi I 'WJ' I W v'..,-Mu.: ff x ,V-gf ,. - Q, +- x JW !

The committee chairmen for the fall term were social, Mildred Diehl, service, Dorothy Maloney, ways and means, Winifred Smith, ring, Eliza- beth Richards, refreshment, Dorothy Beecher, publicity, Kathleen Dammeyer, decoration, Ruth Wilkewitz. The club made money selling cowboys, candy, and Christmas cards. Many acts of service were done. Thanksgiving baskets were given to needy families by the club and the student body. The Girl Reserves and I-Ii-Y clubs gave a Christmas party for a group of poor children. Charlotte Wanke represented Western at a summer conference at Camp Cavell. Twelve members attended the officers training conference at the Y. W. C. A., February 15th.

Twenty-two girls attended the annual all-city banquet, March 8. Many girls sang in the all-city choir for the national Y. W. C. A. convention held April 25 to May 1, at the Masonic Temple. Initiations, socials, discussions, a weinie roast, and a senior farewell made the year an active one. An unusual gathering was held at the Y. W. C. A. for all alumnae and, members of the club. There was an Older Boys and Girls conference for the west side. It was attended by many Girl Reserves of Western, by other clubs, and by church organizations.

HE Red Chapter of the l-li-Y again carried out its purpose by accomplish- ing many worthwhile projects. Under l-liclqolis advisorship and in con- junction with the White chapter of the Hi-Y, the boys ended their twelfth year of service with an enviable record of progress. As is customary with the l-li-Y, it issued football and basketball game programs, and at Christmas time, joined forces with the Cvirl Reserves to bring happiness to the hearts of 80 poor children at the C-ersham lvlission in Delray by providing a Santa Claus-and-Pop-Corn party. On january l-L, 1930, the boys held their twelfth annual banquet. lVIr. Connell and Mr. Hiclcoli acted as chairmen, while Allan Karn and Robert Homer were the toastmasters. An address was given by Dennis F. Strong of the Young Mens Christian Association. The club also had a Mother-and-Son, and an Alumni ban- quet. lvlr. The two Hi-Y organizations offered prizes totaling 10 dollars for the best essays on the four C's-clean living, clean speech, clean athletics, and clean scholarship-submitted by tenth graders. Miss Scott, lX'lr. l-legener, Mr. Connell, Arthur Castorri. and Leonard Nelson were judges. Arthur Castorri and Alice Dowler. of Western, omciated at the banquet held on the second night of the Older Boys and Girls conference at the lmmanual Presby- terian church on May l-l and 15. The purpose of the conference was to launch a movement of understanding between the older boys and girls who are mutually interested in improving their social, mental and spiritual relationships. Some of the topics discussed at the conference were Personal Friendships, Ulleligion for Youth, World Friendships, Develop- ment of Personality, and Selection of Life Work.

H erbert Spathelf Purpose: To train its members, and arouse their interest, in debating and public speaking. ITI-I the beginning of the new ses- sion, the Roosevelt boys showed greatly increased activity. Mr. Hemans, who formerly coached the varsity debating team and had led one of his squads into the State Semi-Final debate contests, for which the school received a bronze wall shield,.came to the club as a critic and assistant advisor. The programs held by the Roosevelt club were varied and interesting, among the activities of lesser note were toast- making. extemporaneous speeches, ad- dresses, 'Roberts Rules of Order, and debate discussions. Early in the first semester the boys held a debate on the question Resolved that the United States Government take im- mediate steps in developing the St. Lawrence waterway. The affirmative was upheld by George Cathcart, Harold Donnelly, and I-Ierbert Spathelfg the negative was represented by John Riehm, Russell Pihurski, and Joseph Burns. Mr. Hemans, the judge, awarded the decision to the affirmative side. Shortly before Christmas, a party was held in the lunchroom with the Rankin club. After many weeks of preparation for the annual Rankin-Roosevelt debate on the question l'Resolved that industrial labor beunionizedf' various labor factions inter- fered and stopped the debate. The annual Rankin-Roosevelt banquet was held on June 12, and was attended by over 100 Rankin, Roosevelt members. alumni, and teachers. Everyone heartily agreed that it surpassed all previous banquets. The festivities were started by Julia Martin, president of Rankin. who acted as chairman, and then turned the assembly over to the toastmaster, John Makar. After the dinner, Claudine Caie, lsadore Shrodeck, Carol Labuhn, Joseph Burns, Elizabeth Richards, and Herbert Spathelf gave toasts and delivered short speeches having aviation as a general theme. Doris Lemon presented honor pins to the Rankin girls who had done meritorious work, this was followed by the presentation of similiar pins to the Roose- velt boys by I-larold Donnelly. Some of the Roosevelt committee members for the banquet were arrangements, Seymour Trivax and Leon Momineeg ticket, Harold Burnstein and I-lerbert Cisco, decorations.

Noted for its defensiye strength, the team did not always show a powerful offense. In the Southeastern, Battle Creek. and Holy Redeemer games, how- ever. Western did not lack driving power. University of Detroit high school forfeited her game with Western because of using an ineligible player. Coach Higgins said he believed Captain Stanley Blaznek to be the strongest de- fense player in the city. He also mentioned Harold Cooper and Frank Jehle as out- standing players. Bill Crothers starred at end until he was forced to abandon the squad because of a serious internal injury, Many of the long runs pulled by the Cow- boys were the result of Carl Benings carrying the ball. The players who did not secure regular berths on the first team but deserve recognition are John Bedner, Jack Grieger. Benny Lazich, George Cathcart, Robert Homer, Arthur Gross, Graham Alvey, William Balog, Bernard Komborski, Do- nald Salminem, Jerome Starzynski, and George Trapp. Arthur Castorri managed the first team and Edward Neeb the second. The regular players who return next fall are Captain-elect Harry Cook, Carl Bening, John Londke, Harold Cooper, Harold Lashbrook, and John Plonka.

The Cow- boys defeated eight of the l-l teams they encountered in dual meets. To round out the season they surprised opposing squads by capturing fifth place in the city meet, barely missing fourth. Of the 150 runners entered in this race, Captain Bill Zapalski placed seventh, thereby earning a medal, and Speed Hershey ran sixteenth, one point out of the medal class. Coach Snarey named these two as the individual stars of the season. Because of illness, Francis lvlondro, one of the best runners, could not compete during the latter half of the season. The following men earned their letters: Captain William Zapalski,MerrillHershey, Erwin Rutkowske, Albert Rutltowske, Francis Mondro, Harry Wrightman, Albert Taylor, Walter Trybus, William Faulds, LIoe'Schreiber, and Irwin Wojtowicz. Alex Procajlo acted as student manager. Although Hershey, Taylor, A. Rut- kowske, and Trybus will be lost by gradua- tion, the remaining letter-men, headed by co-captains Mondro and E.

Then, except for defeating Nlaekenzie, the newcomer to the Metro- politan league, they lost several following games by close scores. Western held the upper hand with Redford until the closing minute, when a Huskie player shot the puck into the net to tie the score. The encounter with Southwestern proved a hot one, and the Prospeetors won it by scoring a goal in the last five seconds.

Western has lost but two matches in the last two years, a splendid tribute to the hard work of Coach Ed- monds in the interest of tennis. After dropping a match to North- western, the Cowboy squad swamped six successive teams 5-0. . In the state regional singles cham- pionship, Captain Spathelf played invinc- ible tennis to come through his half of the tournament with the loss of only three games, taking a set from Gurman, the Northwestern ace. Robert Edmonds, a freshman, made a remarkable record as a singles player when he conquered every opponent, john Edmonds won all but one of his singles matches and combined with Captain Spathelf to make a formidable first doubles team. Ted Kiddon and Henry janltowski as a second doubles team won every match. Of this years team only the two Edmonds brothers return, but several new players who have shown promise will undoubtedly rise to team caliber by next year. Among these are Herbert Cisco. Adam Senderski, and Harold Burnstein. Page Seventy-jire ff' A f Y fwfr' fi VN : '- ' ' X f WWYW Back row: C Hamilton, J. Edmonds, A. Sinkiewicz, W. Minth. Front row: Capt. T, Stefansky, N. Carter, E.

Swimming OWBOY swimmers found rough going this season, bowing to four of the strongest teams in the Metropolitan league. Meets were originally scheduled with Cooley and Mackenzie, but these schools had no swimming teams, so return meets were arranged with two other schools, These meets were the only ones in which Western held her own. Ineligibility accounted for the teams poor showing during the first half of the season, but in the second Southwestern meet, Anthony Sinkiewicz and Thomas Crimshaw, swim- ming for Western for the first time this year, added considerably to the team's strength by taking Firsts in their respective events. This meet marked the turning point of the season, and the Cowboys Hnished in fine form against the strong Trailblazers. Besides Sinkiewicz, whose specialty was the backstroke, and Crimshaw, crawl stroke star, Western had four other equally-able point winners. Captain Thomas Stefansky was a dangerous con- tender in the crawl stroke events and was rarely beaten. Charles Shaw piled up many points in the distance crawl stroke event, Clarence Hamilton and john Edmonds were keen rivals for breast stroke honors, and Hamilton also placed con- sistently in diving. These six swimmers were the only ones able to garner the l0 points necessary for a letter award, Others who swam throughout the season for Western are james Ross, Robert Edmonds, Sam Stone, Nick Carter, Arthur Puschman, Edward Caruso, and Melvin Koepke. Next year nine of the ll regular swim- mers will be back. Page Seventy-.six SJ! gig E. . W' T' v'..Lf1.f,. Back row: G. Cantwell, Coach Ciraccy, T. Munson, A. Stitt, R. Wedge, H. Cook, R.

Captain Merrill Hershey, Ervin Rut- kowske, jack Londke, Willis Wagner, Arnold Colm, and Bill Zapalski all placed in the city meet, this qualifying them for the state meet. Captain Hershey was the star runner of the team, taking second in the quarter mile in both midwest and city meets, and placing second in the 100 yard dash in the city meet. jack Londlce added great strength in the weight events, and he too placed in both midwest and city meets. The quartet of Cowboy high jumpers, Ervin Rutkowske, Willis Wagner, Virgil Sullenger, and Bill Faulds made the best team average in the city meet.

Against Cooley and Redford, the .team displayed its full offensive power by running up large scores. Holy Redeemer was another quintet that was easily turned back. Western kept a three-year tradi- tion of winning every game on the new Central floor by staging a thrilling rally in the dying minutes of the game. Trailing Central 19-10 with three minutes and Z0 seconds to play, the Cowboy team scored a point every 20 seconds to win their last game. The remarkable consistency of Herbert Spathelf secured him the high-scoring honor of 46 points. Captain Harry Quick. the most aggressive player on the team. followed closely with 40. The spirit of cooperation shown by Bob Suder through- out the season was a big factor in the team's victories, Herman Haske, a tenth grader, played so well in the Hamtramck game that he gained a regular berth at center. Thomas Iles, Carl Bening, Leo Fotiu, Edwin Cwerisch, Norman Ivlaier, and Louis Perry were ready to step in when substitutions were needed.

The Ranch team struck their hitting stride in the Highland Park fray, which went to nine innings before the Bears could elce out a victory. Next in line the Cow- boys crushed the Cooley nine and followed this up by giving the Prospectors their annual drubbing. The scarcity of opponents' hits shows clearly that Coach Higgins had one of the best pitching staffs in the city. Captain Donald Payne, William l-ienau, Leo Fotiu, and james Eckhold handled this end ol' the game. ln the batting column Dick Penber- thy, john Matz, Captain Payne, and Bill Mandulali all averaged above the 300 mark. Able substitutes were found in Harold Cooper, John Siantz, Paoh Dain, and Kenneth Cipp. Page Seventy-nine CC If I E ll. ii Back row: A. Miller, J. Kincaid, lvl. Hamblin, A. jackson, H. Szezchura, J.

Western fought valiantly for victory in every fracas, but lost when they en- countered Southwestern, Redford, North- western, Central and Highland Park. Westerns most heated battle was with the Prospectors, as it is almost every year. Although the Red and White won from Redford in an unofficial game earlier in the race, the Huskies, resenting this cle- feat, beat them later on. Good passing and dribbling were the best features of the team. High honors were extended Alice Huff, versatile captain, she obtained a position on the Times' All-City team and was chosen most valuable player of the season by Coach Sibley. Alicejackson was voted captain for next year, the result of her meritorious playing for the past two years. Page Eighty - aff? 2- - , ,,,, an-, .. ,I 5 .eiafw 13 ' Z.. , - A ,il ' Il lf Top row: E.

The Cow- girls raced through the league games, slaughtering every opponent. South- western and Highland Park were the worst threats of the west side, and Southeastern and Hamtramck of the east side. lt was brilliant team work that gave Western its second title, the short passing attack working to perfection. The impregnable defense of the guards, the speedy center work, and the accurate shooting of the forwards gave the girls the title best girls' team ever to win the city champion- ship. Captain Anna Cedris, all-city guard of 1929, also captured the same honor this year. The position of forward on the all- city team was divided among Alice Huff and Hamtramcks two forwards. The Cowgirls making the second team of the all-city were Marjorie Baggott, forward, and Alice jackson, side center. Maurene McDermott, jumping center, and Goldie Baker, guard, performed meritablc work at their positions. Coach Sibley deserves recognition for the fine team she has moulded, The only stand-bys who practiced with thc first team every day, and helped them reach their goal, are Alma Miller, Edith Philip, julia Prokopp, Dorothy Musser, Marie Meier, Dorothy Munsen, and Geraldine Kincaid.

Basketball proved to be quite a success between the study hall and gym classes. The outstanding game of the season was between Victory and Chivalry halls on December l2. As all varsity players were barred, the teams were fairly well matched, but at the end, Victory hall held sway, true to its name, with a score of 14-6. Several ,well fought games were played off between Miss Sibley's and Miss Ed- munds' gym classes. Miss Sibley's last hour class came out ahead of the rest, winning with cooperative team work.

This was a heated battle, most of the games being very close. Friendliness was characteristic of the girls. The en- counter with Southwestern was a walk- a-way, o-0. Edith Philip, captain, kept her prestige by not being beaten by any other girl. Practicing with the boys' tennis team greatly improved the girls' game, because they became used to speed, and they were therefore able to 'ikilln the slower balls that their opponents put over, Coaching by Miss Sibley, Miss Daniel, and Mr. Edmonds was a great factor in the girls' prowess.

AKEN all in all, the intramural football program this year was the most extensive ever. After playing through an interesting schedule, in which Mr, Russell's group won the championship, the four teams were divided into two squads for the annual Victory-Chivalry classic. The game was played before many hundreds of students. Supported by a quartet of stars, Bill Manclulak, Dick Penberthy, Harry Quick, and Denman Meldrum, the Victory team proved quite too much for their opponents, Tommy Iles and Roy Jewell were the outstanding players for the Chivalry team.

Near .the close of the season, after many preliminaries between the numerous teams of the two halls, coaches picked all-star teams from Mr. Russells and Xliss Sturm's groups to decide the final champions. Miss Sturm's boys, who won so overwhelmingly in football, danced to the tune of ll to 4 at the hands of the Russellites. H M' . . H Victory Football . fuk Back Row: W. Monroe, D, Payne.

Our national president, Mr. Keppen, looking uncomfortable in his evening clothes, acted as toast-master. Missjean Byer, world famed authorcss and biographer, talked on the sub- ject: The Ups and Downs of Aviation. Mr. Herbert Clark, the noted surgeon, talked on the subject of prohibi- tion. The Reverend William Licht was the hit of the evening with his delightful anecdotes of his career, while Edward Neeb, the rival of Paderewski, charmed the guests with his display of technique at the piano. Numbered among the other distinguished guests were Miss Pearl Dunphy, editor of A Studenfs Confession. Mr. Russell Pihurski and William Monroe, stars of the new musical show, Hot and Bothered. Miss Charlotte Wanke, the proprietor of a most exclusive Fifth Avenue Shoppe and Mr. Stanle Burns, the popular American artist, who exhibits in Plaris, also appeared at the reunion. City Council Ceases Controversy The Hon. Conrad Batchelder, and the Hon. Norman Naas, both of the Detroit City Council, had to be separated by the other members of the council after a furious debate which lasted three hours. The debate t.ook place last Monday in the new executive buildings, desi ned and constructed by the Burns and Kohs architectural fgrm. The subj ect that caused so much controversy between them was the compulsion of Latin and Greek subjects in high schools. Mr. Batchelder, who has never taken Latin or Greek, maintains that the two subjects ought to be taught to each and every student, while Mr. Naas, having had a complete course in Latin, vehemently disagrees with Mr. Batchelder. Prominent Parsonage Pleases Press Miss Florence Kenyon, known throughout the artistic world for her captivating smile, has arrived in the city to accept the position of president of the Women's club. Her pleasinfg personality and her reassuring smile were the Sub- jects o much discussion among the reporters sent to inter- view her. She accredits her executive ability to the fact that She was presiding officer of the Scribblers club at Westem high school.

Educational Entertainment Mr. Bennie Shwedel, the prominent movie magnate, has announced that he will soon put movin picture educational courses On the market. He asserts that all the algebraic problems will have a happy ending. Weather Worries Westernites The weather has been quite dull for the past year. Extra hard assignments from points such as the classrooms of Miss Waples, Miss Liskow, and Miss Whipple have caused a decided decline in marking altitudes. A high heat of excitement ran wild at many of Western's athletic events. However, the lack of freshmen who might furnish material for jokes and for the Chatter column has dampened the spirits ofthe playful upper classrnen. Modern Method Makes Mathematics Milder Vote for lN4iss Kruke for Chief Mathematician of Western hi h school. Below is an idea how problems of the future wfll be worded if Miss Kruke is elected to office: Before the recent stock slump, a broker bought a certain number of shares of stock for the tremendous sum of 25960. Now, during the stock crash, the price fell S20 per share, and then the broker realized that if he had waited, he could have bought four shares more for the same monefy. Such a loss worried the broker, so he jumped out of his O FICC window on the twelfth story of the Book Tower. He was later found on the fire escape, trying to figure out what his loss would be at the end of 50 years if this gain had been invested at 6523 interest. Find the number of shares he bought for 5960. Suggestion: Let X equal spot where body was found, and Y equal the number of shares he bought before the break. Society Shown Skill Mr. Charles Fotiu, champion ping-pong player, has been invited to display his skill in an exhibition game before a roup of prominent society debutantes, among whom Miss Claudine Caie, Miss Vera Brauer, and Miss Sophie Andrulis are probably the best known.

Pugnacious Pugilist Preserves Prestige The fight between Roundhouse Sam Tabachnick and Gashouse Richard Haskel tumed out to be one of the biggest social events of the season. Disregarding all fouls on the part of the combatants, the contest was conducted in a very sportsmanlike manner. The Hrst and second rounds were but a series of attempts on Sam's part to keep ahead of Richard, so that by the end of the second round both contestants were noticeably dizzy. The third round was begun by Richard as he raised his arms and followed with a lunge forward, jumping backwards almost simultaneously. Ar the same time, Sam came in with a few passes and clumsily stepped on Richard's foot. Richards face im- mediately turned pale, but he fought gamely on, swinging his arms about trying to cover the greatest area possible. However, when Sam stepped on Richards pet corn a second time. Richard, claiming a foul, and weak from injuries to his pet corn, decided to lie down. Notwithstanding Richard's claim, Sam was acknowledged chamfnion by the hoots of the crowd, and the countless number o pop bottles and other weapons which sailed dangerously near the press reporters. Tomatoes and other fruits were also abundant. Notice Hereafter, will the dishwasher in Westerns lunchroom please wash the soup bowls in Lux, as we do not wish them to be any smaller?

The game, the most terrific, nerve racking, exhausting, rough-and-tumble contest in which a team ever battled another, was a game of croquet, Makar started off the battle, and after missing the wooden ball three or four times, he kicked it through the first two arches with his foot. Charles Lindquist of the Bi-weekly immediately started to protest but Mr. Yutzey stood up for his team and threatened to report the news-seekers if they protested too many times. Esther Frank then came up to bat and was more successful in hitting the wooden sphere. Sol Friedman sunk his and became so disgusted that he threw away his material and started cutting out paper dolls, claiming all the while that he was Napoleon. era Brauer had time called out while she powdered her nose. Miss Whi ple objected to use of powder in such a peaceful battle, and? as a consequence, both were ruled out for starting an argument. Wanda Mrozek and Carol Labuhn did little good for their side when they collided with each other while looking for four-leaf clovers. With the aid of John Edmonds, Herbert Spathelf was able to complete an exceedingly hard shot. Russell McLau hlin, playing for the Bi-weekly, was the only one to com Hate a round. His ability to argue got him through many difficult shots. The final score, disregardin allerrors, stock market Huotations, weather reports, and fouls was Beacon 0.334i ound-Uppers 0.

It probably would have been censored anyway.

An investigation is going on to determine whether petitioners have any minds to be distracted. Want Ad Dancing Academy Haskell's Dancing Academy is looking for pupils.

The entire card was blank, except for the street and number, 376 Second street. Thus far I had no idea as to the sender of the card. Filled with a deep curiosity and love of mystery, I put on my hat and commenced to walk in the direction cf the aforesaid address. Recalling that Second street was the habitation of toughs and underworld scoundrels, I had slipped my trusty water gun into my coat pocket, praying that I would have no occasion to use this deadly weapon. Reaching the address, I found a gloomy house with a sign on the front door saying 'iCome In. Overjoyed at such hospitality, I entered to be greeted by the cheerful sounds of clanking chains and hooting owls. Upon becoming accustomed to the darkness, I saw an old Chinaman with a curious looking box in his hands. Upon seeing me, he told me that he was the sender of the note and, since I had come to see him, I could have one wish. I immediately asserted that my one ambition was to see the world and its noted individuals. A smile played like a faint light across the face of the Chinaman as he answered, It is well. Your wish shall be granted. The Oriental passed through a door, beckoning me to follow. This I did, and suddenly found myself in Ireland. On the steps of its capital, I saw Russell McLaughlin in full dress suit trying to get through a crowd of reporters, among whom were Charles Lindquist, Wanda Mrozek, and Jack Twist., Russell was the leader of his party in the I-louse of Commons, and was trying to pass a law making it a crime to joke about the Irish andAScotch. In this worthy purpose, he was greatly aided by Ronald IVlacDuff. From Ireland, we were whisked to England. Passing the Buckingham palace, I was surprised to see Mack Prozak, Sarkis Sarkisian, and Charles Fotiu in the palace guard that was just passing. Charles was shouting out some orders, and I soon found out that he was in command of the guard. At the palace I found United States Ambas- sador, Emery Cummins, trying out his vocal chords on a piece entitled Asleep in the Deep for the benefit of the king who had just returned from a lovely boat trip, and who had not got over it yet. Fearing that the king might become violent with Cummins, I suggested to my guide that we visit France. In gay Pareef' I noticed a huge illuminated theatre sign announcing the appear- ance on the stage of two American beauties, Claudine Caie and Vera Brauer. From an open garden cafe, I heard a new song which had been introduced by Sam Stone in his Trivax Follies a short-while before in New York. The appealing sound of a tenor saxophone caused me to look for the player, whom I discovered to be none other than Charles Dobbins. At the same time, the director of the orchestra turned his head toward me, and I realized I was looking at john Riehm. Enough of Paris! Next we passed to Spain. Two senoritas especially attracted my attention. Imagine my surprise when I found them to be Bonita Overman and Sophie Andrulis. They explained that their love of Spanish dishes had led them to that country. While in Spain I learned that Isadore Shrodeck was the proud proprietor of a cute little hot dog stand in the Alhambra, an ancient fortressof Spain. The next trip was through Germany, where I was attracted by the efforts of a German band. I immediately recognized the members as being Frederick Unger, Roy Cook, and Arnold Colm. Colm held a clarinet for Unger, who blew into it while Cook pressed the various keys. In fact, the entire band sounded like a single instrument. In Russia, I happened upon Nicholas Anikeef, who, now president of that country, had adopted a constitution similar to that of the United States. Viola Roberts and Enid Marble were drawing huge crowds in lVloscow's principal theatre by their own interpretation of the Cossack dance. In Turkey, I found Bertha Ciptak selling woolen underwear and fur coats to the populace. Her salesmanager, William Ackley, was introducing various pastel shades in men's trousers and sport wear. Lavender was a great favorite at the time, though green was still in demand. We visited Persia next. In a Persian market, I became especially interested in a juggier, who was tossing eggs, knives, rubber balls, and other fragile objects into the air andigatching them with great skill on the first bounce. Imagine my surprise when I saw that the juggler was none other than Fred Smith. In another part of the market Page One Hundred.

I-Iis great popularity was due to the fact that he had lost his saxophone some few months before. Our trip through Asia was equally interesting and startling. Going through this wonderful country, I came upon a regimental parade passing in review before the commander-in-chief of the Cossacks. I recognized the chief as Denver Wood, and as I looked about the encampment, I saw Lawrence Butterfield sitting on a camp stool, crying as if his little heart would break. Upon coming closer, however, I knew that it was the onion which he was peeling that had caused him to weep so bitterly. I-Ie had been put on K. P. duty because he was found guilty of cheating in a recent game of solitaire. Visiting the palace at the capital, I came across Fred Wrenbeck guarding the entrance. I-Ie tried to tell us that the ruler was in conference, but when he recognized me and found I was no prohibition agent, he opened the door and bid us enter. I found later that he was the left-hand man of the ruler. When I entered the palace, I was greatly surprised, for in the center of the huge room was a mountain of cushions, and on top of this little mountain reclined the great ruler. The ruler made such great haste to welcome us that he scattered the cushions all over the room. I then realized that this hospitable monarch was the great. Stanley Burns of my high school days. The next place my guide led me was to India. I-lere, in a little village, I met Leon Mominee, who was trying to convince the populace, by means of a loud and forceful speech, that Valentines day was the most important holiday in the calendar. The older inhabitants, however, still shook their heads, and maintained that St. Patricks day was more important. Francis McCullough was the foremost in supporting this idea. A Australia was another interesting country to travel through. What a surprise I received when I witnessed I-Iershey running a race with two ostriches. Try as they could, the poor birds could not gain on Merrill. My guide reminded me that this was I-Iershey's spring training quarters. I-le was representing the United States in the Olympics. From my guide, I also learned that other Americans were training at this ranch. Upon a little investigation, I perceived Cathcart in a little practice workout. I-Ie was playfully jumping over a yard stick which a trained giraffe held in its mouth. Going a little farther, I came upon Stanley Blaznek in full football gear, sidestepping kangaroos and knocking over elephants with his stiff arm. Upon speaking to him, I learned that he was playing on the All-American eleven which was trying out for the worlds championship. As it was, Stanley's trainer had started him off with a light workout, intending to give him a heavier workout later in the training season. Goodbye, Australia' I-Iello, I-Iawaii! Ever since Kempis Trager made these islands a stop-over point for his trans-oceanic air lines, the place seems almost as busy as New York. While at these islands, I got the goods on Willard Zane. I-Ie had opened up a school for the purpose of teaching the I-Iula dance. I also learned that Sol Friedman was his able partner and assistant. Almost too abruptly, we were over the Pacific Ocean bound for San Francisco. While enroute, I witnessed a sham battle which the United States fleet was staging. On the top deck of the senior ship, I saw a group of officers-probably discussing plans to elude the mock enemy. Coming a little closer, I received such a surprise that I nearly fell into the ocean-which would have ended this tale, for I can swim about two feet at my best. My guide, however, prevented the casuality in some way or other. The surprise was the result of my eyes' falling Cliteralj upon Leon Mominee, who was arrayed in a most gorgeous uniform with braids, a sword, whistle, medals, and polished belt. I could recognize only one of the officers, jack Twist, who seemed to be in com- mand of one of the ships. By this time, I began to look forward to seeing even greater and more astonishing sights, but suddenly my sight began to fail me, and everything becamelblurred. Looking to my guide for explanation, I noticed that her appearance was strangely familiar. just then, I was rudely awakened by a noise of a closing file cabinet drawer, and looking around my office, I saw the guide fthe office secretary? just opening another file drawer. She immediately informed me that I had been sleeping at my desk and started to apologize for the noise caused by the filing cabinet. I disregarded her apologies, how- ever, and told her to take some dictation. In this manner, this tale comes to you, with but few changes, as I dreamed it while pouring over architectural plans in my office.

The Stage Manager Reflects OW can we make the Beacon pay? The staff was wondering one day, When someone said, I know a way To off set costs, let's give a play. Thats how it started, no one knew Of all the work he'd have to do Or all the trouble hed have, too, Before The Amazons was through. Miss Whipple and Miss Paterson Directed it. It was begun, Then I was told it was to run, And all the things that must be done. We gathered prop, it was hard work To practice hours, but none did shirk. Rehearsals stopped when the grey murk Of evening 'round the halls did lurk. Then suddenly first night was here, Soon, in the house, crowds would appear, The parts were perfect, one could hear Mumblings backstage, the time was near. The curtains part, the play is on I-Iow it speeds by, two acts are. gone. I-low does it look out front? says john. I shout, Who turned those blamed lights on? And then it's over, and while they Wash off their make-up, I just say While I am putting things away, I wish we'd have another play.

Grand River Avenue at Park Place ROFESSOR LONG, after his four year course in Bigger and Better Cigar Cou- pons, has developed the following theory regarding the proper feeding of cattle: Green grass is very poor food for cattle. lt is no better for them than green apples are for small boys. Can you people not see what you are doing to this younger generation of cattle? Feed them and feed them well, but never green grass. This is my remedy, patent applied for: place a pair of rose colored glasses on each cow. The effect is very noticeable. A feeling of exhilaration comes over the cows, and they prance about thinking they tread a path of roses. Now and then they stop and munch at the grass, This grass does not hurt them, for it is rose not green. Yes, it is rose colored. The cows think so, and it must be. A sane, mentally and physically well- balanced cow couldnt be wrong.

He said he went only because he liked to be doing school work all the time. This seemed odd to everyone because the senior had a little brother and sister who needed coaching much more than the other boy, as their marks were always lower than his-Oh! You guessed it! That little boy had a very beautiful sister attending the same high school as the senior. This is absolutely the last time this favorite saying will appear in any Western publication, so please look and memorize: Oh Yeah!
