So say we all of us-the mighty Class of 1917-for that is what is before us. We are by nature a very quiet, unassuming group of celebrities, but when the Juniors stretch forth their tiny hands in naughty efforts to annoy, we quell them with wondrous power and squelch their puny attempts at notoriety. As we said before, we are naturally very modest, but since we will soon be gone, but not forgotten, we trust, it is our duty to let the school and the remainder of the world know what we are and what we have done. We are the class that put the do in doings, for it was we who made the Mixers the things that they are. It was the glorious Class of '17 that started the Senior-Junior Field Day-a thing never to be forgotten, and a prece- dent that probably will be followed in lat- er years. It was during our administra- tion that the boys took up Military Train- ing and the girls, First Aid. We furnished five of the first eight on the Basketball Team. Most of the points in the big track meets were won 'oy the Seniors. Practic- ally all of the debaters on both teams be- longed to the Senior Class. Last, but one of the greatest of our achievements, is this-The 1917 Herald. We have worked hard on it, and have been helped right nobly by the Juniors and Sophomores on the staff. Perhaps we are prejudiced in its favor, but, at any rate, we think that it is a pretty classy num- ber. It is the first number of the Herald that has ever been constructed in a man- ner to be really called a Year Book. Be- fore the days of the Crier, the Herald came out twice a year. It was then the only record of the year's doings, and of course all of these were written up in con- siderable detail. Then, too, the school was new, and there was much in the curricu- lum that was new and had to be aired. The old type of Herald, among other things, was a chronicle of the doings of the various departments of the school, particularly those of the Manual Training and Domestic Arts Departments. There has been less and less need of this kind of Writeup, and so it has been cut down from year to year. For the last two years there have been almost no departmental articles. Last year there were fewer pages devoted to articles of a strictly literary nature. This year there are no such ar- ticles. We made inquiry and found that only a very small percentage of the stu- dent body ever read that sort of thing, any- way, so we have omitted them alto- gether. ' The Crier has taken care of the events of the year as they have happened. The Herald sume resuml standii count turn tl ing yi who h giving iors, tl of the who lc who h rious We The 1 Book.

The THE WESTPGRT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. 17 Herald undertakes to give you a re- sume of these things, but it is only a resume. We have only given you the out- standing events. For a more detailed ac- count of any of them you will have to turn to your old Crier files. We are giv- ing you a great many groups of people who have done things. Not only are we giving you the pictures of all of the Sen- iors, that alone ought to be worth the price of the book, but pictures of all of those who belong to the different societies and who have represented the school in her va- rious activities. We ask your kindest consideration for The 1917 Herald-Westport's First Year Book. The Crier While we are talking about Westport's publications, allow us to say something for the 1916-1917 Crier. Perhaps you have noticed that the Crier has carried more news this year than formerly. We have tried to do two things with this news. We knew that a great many of the students would want to keep their Crier files com- plete, and so would want to have therein a record of all the doings of the year. For that reason we have been obliged to chronicle a great many news items that the readers already -knew some- thing about. We have tried, however, to not make these of unnecessary length-just long enough to give you the necessary facts. In addition to these we have tried to give many articles of news that would really be news. Almost any number of the Crier has carried close to five thousand words of news out of a total of considerably less than seven thou- sand words. To do this we have been obliged to run very few stories. We often wished that We could run some stories, too, but the news took up all of the space. Westporters write a good many excellent stories each year. Probably enough subscriptions may be handed in next year to enable us to run several double numbers that will contain some of the best stories. Three or four such numbers in the year would be a great thing. . The Crier wants to take this opportun- ity to thank those who have contributed material throughout the year. - . Our New Vice-Principal Most of us had a great surprise waiting for us when we came to enroll last Sep- tember. Instead of the usual good natured Vice-Principal, Mr. Stigall, we found an equally good natured, but entirely differ- ent person. In answer to our question as to what had become of Mr. Stigall, we were told that he had been promoted to the Vice-Principalship of Polytechnic Institute, and that Mr. Beckmann had been promot- ed to the Vice-Principalship of Westport. At first we were not only surprised, but quite a little hurt to think that our Mr. Stigall had been taken from us. In his few years at Westport he had endeared himself to every one of the numerous stu- dent body. All had found that he was never too busy to sit down with them and give them liberally of both his time and his friendly advice. Many had visions of what would happen to them when it came time to ask for the third admit. When we had had time to think it over, and had discovered that the new position offered to Mr. Stigall meant ever so much to him in the way of advancement, we began to reconcile ourselves to our loss and think how thankful we werethat our own Mr. Beckmann had been selected to take his place. Many of us had long known that Mr. Beckmann is one of the best friends that the students have. We just opened our young hearts to him and they are now full to overflowing. 4... ... - - -- , --rs a--5:-f-+:',-'1:fi.'1:'rl-E1--a-'-'- -' - - - -4'- -' 7 TI 18 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. ' We all hated to lose Mr. Stigall. Of course we did! But it was not long be- fore we began to hear that the almost one hundred Westport graduates at Poly- technic were just as glad to get Mr. Stigall as we were sorry to give him up, so that in a slight measure consoled us. Mr. Beckmann has now taken his place in our thoughts and actions, and we have all pledged him our allegiance. The one thing that we hope most is that he will not be taken away from us as Mr. Stigall was. Mr. Beckmann has been with us for nine years. He came the year that Westport first entered the new building. During all these years he has had charge of the Mod- ern Language Department. Those of our number who have been fortunate enough to be enrolled in his German classes have come to know him well. His long residence at Westport has made him familiar with us and our methods of procedure, so it is little wonder that he has fitted into things as though he had always been Vice-Prin- cipal. Mr. Beckmann, we are for you! The Seven Hour Day Somebody has said that it never rains but it pours. We felt that the rain had been a deluge when we came in on that first enrollment day last September and found that Mr. Stigall was not to be with us, but as soon as we got down to the actual business of enrolling, we discovered that the dark cloud had a bit of silver lin- ing after all. An innovation had been put into force-a seven-hour day. Instead of the old program of -.eight hours that let the unlucky holders of high numbers out at two-fifty, we were to have a much more convenient program of seven hours. Under the new program we were told that we could come either the first or second hours, and that we would have to stay at least six hours. The new arrangement has appealed to all of us. Not only has it allowed us to get out earlier than we used to be able to do, but on days when the societies meet, or when some have to remain for play re- hearsals or debate practice or some other of the numerous school activities, we have not had to wait around the building so long before we could begin. It has amount- ed to a great saving of time for a great many people, and we sincerely hope that the same plan may be continued next year. New Things of the Year Just think of the new things that have been started at Westport this year. In fact it has been a year of new things. They began right at the beginning of the year. We started the new year with a new program under a new vice-principal, and we have been adding new things ever since. One of the first things was the Book Exchange conducted by Mr. Harman. Later in the year came Military Training for the boys and First Aid to the Injured for the girls. In the meantime the girls had established a Bible Class that met after school once a week with Miss Wes- ton as leader. The Mixers have been more numerous. The Senior-Junior Field Day finished off the year. Last, but not least by any means, are the three new clubs that have been formed during the year. These additions bring the number of clubs at Westport up to twelve. Really and truly this has been a year of innovations. Military Training Perhaps the greatest of the new things started this year is the Military Training. The movement started late in the year, but vt Westp school Cadet. 178. and N has c clares ress f ing, a favor. elsewi traini In traini is on start short clude state instii boys high same they cours State that may Th will : rious Milit their Ri Trai girls givei how woui actu of a surg witl ppealed to wed us to be able to ities meet, Jr play re- ome other s, we have uilding so Ls amount- ar a great hope that nued next 11' that have year.

The four high schools of the city have enrolled 389 Cadets, and of this number Westport has 178. Central has 101, Northeast has 75, and Manual has 35. Sergeant Shirloh, who has charge of our three companies, de- clares that they have made great prog- ress for the time they have been in train- ing, and adds that they will compare very favorably with high school organizations elsewhere that have had more time for training. In these days when universal military training is being talked of everywhere, it is only perfectly natural that it should start in the high school. It will only be a short time until such training will be in- cluded .in the course of study for every state university, as well as in many other institutions of higher learning. Give the boys two or more years of this training in high school and then let them continue the same work on a more extended plan when they enter the universities, and in the course of a very short time the United States will have a reserve corps of officers that will be able to meet any crisis that may arise. There is no doubt but that next year will see many more of the boys of the va- rious high schools of the city taking up Military Training as a regular part of their education. -ili- Red Cross Right along with the boys' Military Training came their better halves, the girls, with their First Aid. The exhibition given in the gymnasium showed plainly how well girls can bandage the supposed Wounds of the boys, and some of them are actually positive that they can take care of a real wound. , Their proficiency in the surgical line is due greatly to the eagerness with which the forty girls took up their Red Cross training, but most of all it is due to the leadership of Mrs. Koch and Miss Keeley. These two ladies and Miss Henry, adviser, have given a good part of their time to the training, and it is mostly due to their skill and apti- tude in illustrating that the girls are the dandy little Red Cross nurses that they are. Every Thursda.y we beheld the novel and pleasing sight of forty girls, all dressed in white, and with their Red Cross bands on their arms, going through the halls. Thursday was the appointed day and the appointed hour, or rather two hours, for the training began at two o'clock on that afternoon. Now, due to the enthusiasm with which the forty girls started their Red Cross classes, we boys can rest assured that we will have good care if we do have to go to war. New Clubs V The very fact that we have had three new clubs organized this year, and that they have been so successful, indicates that there was an actual need for them. Since these three clubs, the Biology, Radio, and Chemistry, have been formed, they have shown a wonderful increase in their en- rollment. The Biology Club, since it first took shape under the clever hands of Miss Henry, has become a real factor in school life. It now numbers many of the best people in school in its membership and has performed its purpose wonderfully well. It has aroused great interest in the works of old Dame Nature, and we now know much more concerning Bugology and the' trees and plants than we. ever ex- pected. Mr. Hill and his bunch of radio enthus- iasts founded a very good thing when they started the Radio Club. This club, in tak- ing up such an interesting phase of phys- ...:.-......-..- -f-f- -'11 :-':'f'fi7':'-:27wl'fz:lrd:CRi5- --J . ..a::W.z'f:w: --:1ug.1..,:. - - ' ,., . fxfliil 20 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. i ics, has greatly aroused the interest in that entire subject, and has also been the means of making us at least somewhat familiar with the wireless and its equip- ment. The many technicalities of the ra- dio world have at least become partly known to us and we are enthused. When the old Physics Club disbanded last year it had accomplished considerable in the chemical line, but this has been greatly increased by the new Chemistry Club. Under Mr. Herrmann's leadership it is a self--evident fact that the interest in simple and advanced chemistry has be- come so great that next year will undoubt- edly see an even greater pick-up in the membership of the Chemistry Club. These three clubs are the logical out- growth of the work started by the Physics Club. We are glad to see so many inter- ested in the various lines of technical work. We hope that the number may in- crease next year. Eighth Hour Study Halls All have a very natural aversion for eighth hours. In fact, at times the aversion becomes almost violent. When we stop, however, and consider how much good these eighth hour study classes have done this year, we are thinking along more agreeable channels. The classes as carried out this year were not for the naughty little children who would not behave, but were coaching or helping classes. Some pu- pils were sent there by their teachers, but the majority of those in attendance were those who had had trouble with the sub- ject either on account of absence or the natural difficulties of the subject. Any- one who found himself in trouble had the privilege of going to one of these classes and getting special help. Many lives have been saved by help obtained in this manner. The plan is looked upon with so much favor by the members of the Facility that it has been whispered around that the number of such classes will be greatly increased next year. While these classes are not for punishment, still it is a most unpleasant sensation-this study- ing the eighth hour when you can think of so many other things that you would rather be doing. Methinks it behooves YOU to work mucho next year. ..-i..-i Business Talks Among the numerous innovations intro- duced at Westport this year has been the series of business talks in our assemblies. Mr. Shouse, realizing that a boy has a very difficult time in deciding what he is going to be when he gets big enough to be it, secured a number of prominent business men to talk to us about their respective fields of work. In many cases we have been materially aided in making up our minds as to what our vocations shall be. The real inside dope that has been given us has not only been interesting, but has been very helpful, and we sincerely hope that still more good speakers will give a still wider range of businesses from which to choose when it comes time for assem- blies next year. . Clean Living This year, as in former years, Westport has had her Clean Living Campaign. In every movement there is always somebody or some organization to head up the work. The student body has had three organiz- ations working for the same purpose- the betterment of the social and moral side of the school life. The girls have been fortunate in having two such organizations-the Girls' Coun- cil and the Bible Class. The meetings of the Girls' Council or Council Club, like the Boys' High School Club, were held out of school. In the regular meetings at the Y.

A. the Westport girls have come to know girls from the other high schools who think as they do upon all sorts of questions. Every girl who attended the Council Club meetings was helped, be- cause she found there otiher girls who also wanted to do the right thing, and who she knew would stand behind her in her efforts. Miss Weston, in her regular meetings with the Bible Class of girls, taught them more about the Bible than they dreamed could be found, and showed them where to go when they found it necessary to have help in their seeking of clean living. Many times the boys thought what a shame it was that the girls were not boys so they could attend the High School Club. Under Mr. Foster's leadership some dis- cussion meetings were held this year that have done a great deal toward helping the boys in their fight. Every Monday night found a good sized crowd at the Y. M. C. A. for the dinner with the boys from Northeast, Manual, and Central. Follow- ing the combined meeting came the di- visional meetings, and it was here that we got our real help. The things the fellows said and the points made in those discus- sions have been the means of more than one fellow's making a mighty big fight for a clean life. The fact that Westport won the big cup for the attendance this year proves that the interest in the right things is not dying out.

We have studied many different types of songs this year, and have been given chances to take solo work. We sang twice in assembly, giving two numbers with Ruth Shane as the soloist in one. We were the only Girls' Glee Club of Kansas City asked to sing in Convention Hall at the Teachers' Convention this winter. Probably our largest attempt was the Bohemian Girl in concert form given with the other high schools at Poly, May 18. Flora Kelly won a solo part which pe- culiarly suited her high, clear voice. Eu- genia Masden and Juanita Collins were the accompanists for the evening, and Mrs. Hedges directed the production. Eugenia Masden, our pianist and a splen- did musician, has been of much value to us throughout the year. The work has been very interesting, and we all feel as if we had accomplished some- thing worth while. We feel sure that this club will go on accomplishing even more under the excellent instruction of Mrs. Hedges. The members are : Edna Alliflg' Lucille Hyman Mary Frances Allen Elizabeth Johnson Elizabeth Alexander Flora Kelley Edith Ball Hannabelle Baer Esther Badger Virginia Burton Maurine Conley Emilie Chesney Juanita Collins Olive Coombs Helen Creager Ruth Davis Mildred Eckland Naomi Galvin Margaret Hess Ida M.

Boys' Glee Club The Boys' Glee Club began at the first of the year with a fine start, and it ap- peared as if we would make a very fine showing in the competitive singing in the spring. But Westport had not so bright a chance, as many of our best singers left school. As it was, Westport won one solo and one duet. Paul Gibson sang the solo, and Flora Kelleyrand Howard Joyner the duet. Aside from the solo and duet honor there were other competitive numbers for which cups were awarded. . There were four cups, one for sight read- ing, one for the boys' chorus, one for the g1FlS,, and one for the mixed chorus. V 5 7 2 If y tendec sider ' you wx the sp The 3162 Harold Wm.

Orchestra The orchestra has accomplished more this year than ever before and chiefly be- cause of the untiring efforts of our direc- tor, Miss Hedges. We gave a pleasing pro- gram for the school at an assembly and also showed our patriotism when we gave our services at the cadets' drill. We have played for the Christmas, Senior, and Spanish plays, also for the Commencement exercises, and are finishing up the good work by playing for a few outside affairs now. This year there have been several addi- tions to the orchestra and they were very welcome. Indeed all are welcome who join, and We wish more would. Those that feel that they have any musical talent and ability at all should join the orchestra, not only for the sake of the two points that are given, but also because of the advantage derived and knowledge gained from the orchestra practice. There are some of us who are leaving this year, but we are confident that our places will be even better filled next year. Those leaving this year are Frances Morris, Otella Miller, Sarah Burman, and Willard Pierce. School spirit is backing the orchestra so well this year that we can see nothing but a successful future for itg especially, as Miss Hedges will continue to have charge.

Just look at the list of men and women who have ad- dressed us. This list not only includes some of the greatest ministers and busi- ness men of Kansas City, but a very large number of the leading men and women of affairs of the United States. In ad- dition to these people, we have had a good- ly number of assemblies where the enter- tainment has been furnished by those of our own number. It would be difficult to say which as- sembly was liked by the greatest number, for they were all unusually good. What we liked most was the variety. Our ad- dresses have covered all sorts of subjects. There have been talks on patriotism, on clean living, on nature, on music, on China, on business, and on numerous other topics of present day interest. Interspersed through these have been numerous mu- sical programs by way of variety. We want to thank Mr. Shouse and Mr. Beck- mann for securing these people for us. Below is a review of the assemblies of the year: A The Greatest Gamez' Dr. Henry Marcotte, Pastor of the Sec- ond Presbyterian Church of this city, was the first outside speaker of the year. His address, October 2,.was on The Greatest Game, the game of life. In his message he urged us to discipline ourselves to cul- tivate teamwork with the remainder of humanity. The Story of a Thousand-Year Pine On October 20, Mr. Enos A. Mills, the famous naturalist, paid Westport another visit. Several years ago Mr. Mills told from our platform the story of Midget, the Return Horse. This time he told still more of his remarkable adventures in matural research work. His story, The Story of a Thousand-Year Pine, gave the student body much unusual in- formation concerning the life history of an old pine tree. Musical Assembly The Westport Glee Clubs and the stu- dent body engaged in a songfest on Octo- ber 25. Mr. Leslie Peckenpaugh, a former Westporter, sang several selections. True History On November 3 Dr. Nisbet introduced to us Mrs. Mildred Rutherford of Georgia, who spoke on the True History of the North and South as she saw it. ...Vs ... .,, ,...,... ......,,...,.,.:.-.-.-.--7-.-Q-11-1. r1::f :r':--1-r-'r:-:l:c2'.25 .-. f.- - -202' -' Aiwa 7.

Price of the Safety .First Committee made a short talk on Safety First.'7 Vocal Recital On Monday, November 13, Mr. Herman Springer, barytone, gave quite a lengthy recital. He was accompanied by Miss Clara Crangle. Missouri Day Dr. Hill, President of Missouri Univer- sity, paid Westport his annual visit on the day before the M. U.-K. U. football game. As usual, he spoke to us of a number of the university activities. The M. U. Cadet Band dispensed some real music. Debate Booster The better part of the forenoon on De- cember 11 was given over to boosting the debate. Miss Bain, Miss Shufflebotham, Mr. Humphrey, and Mr. Strong spoke in favor of a large number of contestants for the debate tryout. Our Hawaiian Orchestra gave us some music, and then we proceeded to get ac- quainted with Mr. Nugent, the junior member of the Board of Education., Basketball Booster Our first assembly after the holidays was given over to an explanation of the new basketball rules. Mr.-Hoopes illus- trated a number of the rules by means of members of the team. The new cheer leaders then put on an exhibition. China On January 26 we were treated to an il- lustrated lecture on China by Mr. Julean Arnold, Commercial Attache to China. Mr. Arnold lived in China for a long time, so he knew what he was talking about. Both views and lecture were interesting. Classical Music We had an unique treat on January 31 when Prof. H. C. Macdougal, Professor of Music at Wellesley explained to the assem- bly some of the motifs of classical music. Nothing of exactly the same sort has ever been given at Westport. Father and Son Week Westport did her bit in the interest of Father and Son Week. Dr. Spencer of Trinity Church was the speaker. He made a strong appeal for the young people to be loyal to the home, their religious in- stincts, and their country. Triple Cv Campaign The speaker for the boys' Clean Speech, Clean Sports, Clean Habits campaign was Mr. R. A. Waite, of Lincoln, Nebraska.. He made a perfectly plain, straightfor- ward appeal to the boys in the interest of clean living. Many of the boys have worn their buttons ever since. The Message of the Rainbowv On the next day, February 13, Miss Weston, the Bible Class teacher, made much the same sort of appeal to the girls. The girls found out that the letters in the word rainbow stand for a number of things of which they had never dreamed before. Home Talent Concert The Glee Clubs and the Orchestra fur- nished a fitting prelude to the Washing- ton's Birthday holiday. The cherry tree and our drummer boy were headliners.

THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. 27 N. E. A. Visitors Three N. E. A. visitors furnished the assembly on the morning of February 26. Miss Fitch, Dean of Women at Oberlin Col- lege, talked at some length about the schools of China. This was the second ad- dress of the year that dealt with the schools of China, but all were much inter-- ested in her comparisons of our schools with theirs. Mr. E. L. Miller of the Northwestern High School of Detroit made a short talk on the amalgamation of nationalities in the United States. The program of the morning was com- pleted by Mr. Cody, Assistant Superin- tendent of Schools of Detroit. Advertising and Salesmanshipv The first assembly given over to busi- ness talks by business men occurred on March 23. Mr. G. M. Husser, Secretary of the Kansas City Advertising Associa- tion, spoke on Truthful Advertising. All were much interested in the work that the Association is doing. Mr. Mirvin Mil- ler then gave a talk on Salesmanship. Patriotic Demonstration The assembly at noon, April 2, will long be remembered. We were called together at the exact hour when the new Congress was meeting for the first time. The most careful attention was given to every word of Dr. R. D. Ritchey and Bishop Thomas Lillis. Dr. Ritchey outlined the general causes of the World War. Bishop Lillis then gave us some idea of the part Amer- ica was likely to be called upon to have in the struggle. As all filed out quietly after Dr. Ritchey's stirring prayer, there was no doubt where Westport stood on the question. Sweaters and Mr. Trigg The basketball boys received their sweat- ers, Tuesday, April 20. Mr. F. C. Trigg, editorial writer of the Kansas City Star, then gave us one of the most interesting of our Business Talks. His theme had to do with the part that the modern news- paper can have in the propagation of good citizenship. Debate W's On April 24 the debaters, both boys and girls, received their debate W's. Miss Bain, in her delivery speech, gave a lengthy review of all the good things she had heard about the girls' debates. Mr. Humphrey presented the boys' pins. Athletic Jubilee The last assembly of the year was the one where the blankets, medals, and ath- letic W's were awarded. If the applause be any criterion, it was one of the best en- joyed assemblies of the year. Faculty Changes All vacancies caused this year by changes in the faculty have been ably filled by new instructors. Following the acceptance of Miss Mun- dy, last year's substitute, of a very de- sirable position in California, Westport found a popular successor in Miss Hayden, a graduate of K. U. When Miss Chace left Westport to marry Mr. Da Camara, a civil engineer, her posi- tion as instructor in art was efficiently taken by Miss Willhite, who has received a thorough education in that subject at Pratt Institute, Cape Girardeau Normal, and Col- umbia University. Miss Jackson has replaced Miss Streeter in the cooking department. Miss Streeter .....-...,L,-....1....T.f-pq 7:11 eff:-mirrz - Lakai .-. ,- .g, .. .. --szmrzrsf 28 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. is now teaching domestic science at War- rensburg Normal. Miss Jackson, of Mich- igan, graduated at Ypsilanti Normal and at Pratt Institute. She was Director of the Household Science and Arts Depart- ment in Iron, Michigan. Elocution work in Westport has been ex- tended this year by the acquisition of an- other instructor of that subject. Miss Wil- son had several classes in English, also, and coached the girls' debate teams. She is a graduate of Vassar and has taught in Sweet Briar Academy. Miss Myers, clerk of last year, is now in Park College, studying to be a missionary. Her position has been filled by Miss Stout, Westport graduate of '15. She attended Spalding's Business College and is now a capable C? see Miss Duncanj member of our large office staff. It is interesting to know that she was formerly a Junior offi- cer and member of the Herald Staff. V Death of Night Watchman Our night watchman, Mr. Thomas Ham- ilton, who was even with us in the old Westport building, died Sunday, December 31. He was seventy years of age. After serving through the Civil War in the Union ranks, he settled in Westport. He was identified with the Knights Temp- lars and several other lodges. Thanksgiving Westport's Thanksgiving offering this year amounted to 314444, an evidence of the munificence, generosity, and regard for the less fortunate of the students of '17. The distribution of the funds was made as follows: Federation of Colored Charities .......... S 80.00 Provident Association . ........ ..... 3 0.00 Nettleton Home . ........... .... 3 0.00 Boys' Hotel . ................. .. . 27.22 Matty Rhodes' Day Nursery ...... 27.22 Total . . . ........ .... ..... 213 1 44.44 The committee which decided upon the apportionment of the funds consisted of the following students: Seniors-George Parrish, Claire Stoner, Juniors-Norman Jackson, Julia Le Vine, Sophomores- Kenneth Ringle, Margaret Coyle, Fresh- men-Jackson Eads, Joy Crosswhite. Manual Host to Teachers A mixer for the teachers of Poly and the several high schools was given by the Manual faculty Friday, December 8. Al- though the first of its kind, the affair was a decided success and will surely lead to similar functions in the future. The halls were uniquely decorated, there was an infinite supply of punch, and savory refreshments were served. The Cheer Leaders Our trio of noise experts deserves credit for extracting those raucous volumes of racket from the throats of Westport root- ers, for Sig Sandzen, Cliff Simpson, and Gerald King produced a superior brand of cheering. Sig as leader in chief was a demon demonstrator of his skill. Each one of the triplets showed extraordinary ability and pep. The result of their ef- forts typifies the loyalty and school spirit of '17. Yell Contest As in past years, the Westport Book Store furnished the incentive for the yell composer. Each year we acquire possi- bly one new yell through this medium, yet strange to say, merely nominally. The usage of our yells is left to the discretion of our cheer leaders, who in most cases fail to utilize the prize winning yell. As heartless as their decisions may some- times seem, their selections are founded.

Eugenia Haydon was the winner this year of the first prize, a large Westport pennant. Her work: Who's got the team? Who's got the pep? Who's got the coach? Who's got the rep, Westport! I The second and third prizes, smaller pennants, were won by George Wieda and Victor Lenge. Business Abroadv Westport High School was put on the map in patriotic undertakings through the efforts of Miss Margaret De Witt. It was her desire to perform something that would contribute to the American spirit in the payment of our indebtedness to France, a country which has ever been America's friend, that led her to write the book, Business Abroad. Not only did she write the book, but also paid half of the price of publication. The book sells for fifty cents a copy, all proceeds going to the fund for the blind soldiers of France. A concise and truth- ful narration of affairs- in Europe from the viewpoint of an American is assured every reader. The style is very entertain- ing and appealing, being representative of Miss De Witt's best literary ability. Lunch Room Changes This year our lunch room was in the wake of a gust of efficiency. Each year there have been slight improvements, but considering the extent of the changes this year, it seems as though this department has reached perfection. In previous years everyone flocked around the serving table at the same time. As a result, those who were supposedly fortunate in getting served first had to make such a struggling exit that the hour was half over before the last ones were served. And then many were so Hvictual- ized that their garments heard the call of the tailor shop. With the installation of an iron railing a single file was formed allowing everybody plenty of time in which to eat. Also the pecuniary stampede that cen- tered around the one check stand faded away with the creation of another. Mixers , All labor is stimulated by the resultant energy of occasional diversion. The re- lation between the several social functions and the regular school work this year is truthfully summarized in the preceding statement. In former years the social side has not been as marked, and it is perfectly obvious that it was feared that more than possibly one social affair a year would be retroactive to study. As time and experi- ence often alter opinions, such proved true in this case. We have shown that amusement is that which cheers, but not inebriates. The Senior Mixer Thursday, November 23, was the initial affair. Last year this mixer was asked for by the Junior busi- ness committee. I A motley Conly in affiliationsb crowd participated in our mostsuccessful Inter- society Mixer, Thursday, February 15. Un- usual spontaneous talent was shown in the several stunts. Again on Friday, March 30, the Seniors found the festive doors of the gym open wide to all their clan. Student Aid Fund Our Student Aid Fund, which, as its name designates, was established to assist '-'Lv' J' -' -Y i'1'3:f Tf i'iI3T':'QC.5'.aI5F'lT'IiZ-7i!. BZ9EHl:.l.-p,sf--1' -.11-4 1:1415-uuggbi 30 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD., , students in their school expenses, received but one application, and the request was readily granted. Efforts were made to in- solicit aid next year, because the fund has reached two hundred and forty dollars, twenty dollars contributed this year, and the committee will be more than anxious to help them whenever necessary. Tug of War The Senior-Junior tug of war which took place over the casting pool on Gillham Road was a decisive victory for the Junior Class. Of course the Seniors' alibi was that the man power of the Juniors was greatly in excess of theirs. Even the girls had a part, stimulating the boys with their musical species of rooting. Considering the amount of pleasure de- rived from the tug of war this year, it is certain that similar and possibly greater functions will form the history of West- port's class rivalry in the future. The thought of having such an immense class flag as the one this year, suspended on the front of the building for a week, acclaim- ing and announcing to all the victory of the particular class, will inevitably cultivate in the students, productive class pride. The Herald Cover The simple yet artistic Herald cover we have this year, is the result of the efforts of Helen Hofsess. As in past years there were a number of contributions subjected to the keen eyes of the judging committee, which consisted of art teachers and com- mercial artists of the city. Among the thirty drawings entered, there were a number that were almost as fit for the Herald cover as the one chosen. Junior Prom The Juniors gave the Seniors their an- nual entertainment on Saturday night, May 12, when at 8:15 the upper classmen met in the gym to celebrate the Prom. The gym was decorated in Westport colors and pennants, and the '18 trophy pennant was suspended from the east end of the gym. Riley's orchestra furnished music, and all the guests were favored with caps and fans. The programs were especially appropriate. The Junior committee and Miss Hodshire are to be blamed for the great success of the party. Music Festival Omitting the fact that the Muse of Music failed to bestow one of the much-coveted 'trophies upon Westport, the Fourth Annual Spring Music Festival and Contest, held in the Assembly Hall of Polytechnic Institute, Friday, May 18, was a great success. Con- tests were held during the afternoon, and the Bohemian Girl was presented in con- cert form by the united choruses of the four high schools in the evening, under the direction of Mrs. Effie J. Hedges.

Con- 1oon, and d in con- es of the under the BOYS' DEBATE The question for the boys' annual inter- scholastic debate was, Resolved, That the Dayton, Ohio, city-manager system should be adopted in Kansas City, constitution- ality granted. Since there has been such a universal reconstruction in municipal governments recently with a varied suc- cess, the question offered unusual oppor- tunities for research. The result of the quadruple contest left Central and Northeast with double victo- rious decisions, both holding a tied lease on the Amherst debaters' cup, a situation similar to that of Westport and Northeast last year. Another debate, scheduled to break the tie between Central and North- east resulted in a complete victory for Northeast, and she holds the first year's lease on the Amherst cup, which takes three successive years of victory to retain permanently. J Westport vs. Northeast Our affirmative team met the Northeast negative at Manual. Our best logicians, John Madden, Leslie Lyon, Jack Kollman, and Bob Dickson, were defeated by the splendidly superficial oratory of the North- east quartette. It was a clash of real ar- gument and fine rhetoric, and Westport failed to stand the test. The Northeast rhetoricians helped to retain the Amherst cup on the strength of a 4 to 1 decision. John Madden delivered a forcefully simple explanation of the Dayton plan as the culmination of all plans for city gov- ernment. With frequent resorts to beau- tifully vested sarcasm, Maxwell Taylor showed the undemocratic principles of the Dayton plan. Jack Kollman enumerated to the 'steenth count the innumerable good features of the Dayton plan. J ack's peppery eight-minute interim was followed by a dissertation by James Fifield of the defects of the Dayton city-manager system. After Les Lyons' demonstration of the perfect adaptibility of the plan to Kansas City, George Combs declaimed by the force of rare oratory on the pure un-American principles of the Dayton plan. The rebuttals were contests of Westport wit and Northeast art of cannery. The four-minute sessions of the Northeasters certainly were not devoted to refutation, and the whole was foreordained in prepar- ation. Westport knew her subject and her extemporaneous rebuttal felled every ar- gument that the negative upheld. John Madden, lawyer-to-be, delivered a rebuttal as brilliant as ever a debater delivered, and the Northeasters rested on sheer force of oratory when he had relieved himself of his refutation, Bob Dickson, as alternate, was a splen- did asset to the team in preparation of re- buttal and deserves as muchncredit as his more talkative colleagues. Westport vs. Central Well, we lost, but it was certainly one real debate. Mr. Humphrey may justly ' A ' '- - AM'-'---+---L--ffl'--7557571-w -f-igfr, :-5:32772-f-::nQrrltIgC:'.,C-tib7r':l:xtze-:mv:1-Ji:..? Boys' Debate Squad be proud of such a team as the Westport boys' negative team. There never was a bunch of boys who did clearer, more accu- rate debating than they did. With Ray- mond Hazelton giving the first speech for Westport, Sigurd Sandzen following him, and Hubert Parker closing the debate, while John O'Keefe assimilated points, and then still more points, in his position of alternate, we can hardly understand why they lost. And then we remember the re- markable pep and oratory shown by the Central affirmative team and realize partly the reason. Central did not have their speeches organized quite so well as our boys, but they did have a happy faculty of rising to oratorical climaxes. The ora- tory 'seemed to impress one judge a wee bit more than our logic, and consequently the decision was three to two for Central. Central had fine debaters, there is no getting around it, and when Harley Smith opened the debate we realized how ineffi- cient our present form of government is and were prepared for what his colleagues had to say. Harry Hamilton, the second speaker of the affirmative, gave numerous examples where the Dayton plan had been a success, and the third Central debater, a particularly fiery little Irishman, called Kelly, wound the affirmative arguments up in great shape. Westport had her arguments organized in the best possible manner and used true logic. Ray Hazelton showed how the Hare system of Proportional Representation should be added to the Dayton plan. Sig. Sandzen proved the advantage of raising the number of the commission from five to nine, and that the recall of the city- manager should not be left to the people. Last, Hubert Parker, a Junior, and a fine debater, proved that only the three highest of a civil service examination should be placed on the eligible list, and that dis- charged employees should not have the right of appeal to the civil service board. In rebuttal speeches we enjoyed the best part of the debate. They were overflowing with real earnestness and showed the ab- solute knowledge of the subject that the boys had. A three to two decision was the only possible one in favor of either team. If our readers only indulged, we should propose a toast to our negative team, real debaters.

Q How hard it was to keep one or more of the fifty-seven varieties of sentences used in delivery practice from invading the real speeches will never be known to the school at large. Several of the debaters adhered to the premonition of confronting liquid elo- quence. Although the inundation proved rather deep and widespread, the Buoy-of- facts which enveloped them bore them gal- lantly. GIRLS' DEBATE The annual interscholastic clash between the feminine intellectual warriors of the four high schools resulted in a quadruple tie, although Manual, last year's incum- bent, will retain the coveted trophy for an- other year. The subject, Resolved, That the United States should abandon. the Mon- roe Doctrine, was particularly well chosen and offered a wide range for research and argumentation. The brilliant work of the girls of this year will offer an added stimulus to the representatives of Westport in debate for 1918. The success of this year will be a higher incentive to attain for Westport that cup, the insignia of championship, which Manual now holds. Westport vs. Northeast On Friday, March 30, the Westport af- firmative team met the Northeast nega- tive at Manual to dispute the question, Resolved, That the Monroe Doctrine Should be Abolishedf' Our team succeed- ed in defeating them, 3 to 2. Ethel Shufflebotham as first speaker on the affirmative opened the controversy with a remarkable speech, proving that the Monroe Doctrine was productive of grave international complications. With her ex- tensive vocabulary, straight-forward argu- ment, and excellent delivery, she did more than her share to favorably impress the judges. Jean Slavens, the Northeast starter, had a good speech, but her delivery was poor. She seemed to be just repeating words, and never really warmed up to her task. Amelia Palmer, second affirmative speaker, proved that the Monroe Doctrine should be abandoned, because it has changed from defense to aggression. Her speech was well worked out and to the point. Sarah Saper, the next speaker, was pop- ular with the audience, for she was a small, sarcastic Sophomore. She had a rather well-written speech, but with not a great deal of argumentative value. Florence Randall then informed her hon- orable opponents that Pan-Americanismx was a much better arrangement than the old Monroe Doctrine. She debated force- fully, and her arguments were very strong. Mona Ramsey, the last negative girl, spoke well and intelligently on the sub- ject, really the best member of the team. Our rebuttal was a strong point in favor of Westport, for it was entirely extemp- oraneous and did its duty of refuting every argumentkthe negative had. It was interesting to see how many points each affirmative girl could overthrow in the time allotted her. The negative were calm and easy-going, for they well knew that their speeches would fill the space exactly, for they had timed them many times when they had previously rehearsed them. Our rebuttal well showed the help of Stella . .,-,,,,.....,..,..,,...,., fr-1-1-,--mzafrr-sr: s' :- .-J . , - . . r ,..m:...nn-- H, 44,10.1.1,--i...-Q-..:.-um. -4 ----Q . - - - 1 ' - '- -'- - - - ' - Girls' Debate Squad Wasserman, alternate, and the whole thing the aid of Miss Wilson and Miss Bain, the coaches. Westport vs. Central The girls of the Blue and White emerged victorious from the real debate between the Central affirmative and Westport negative. The discussion took place in the Northeast Auditorium, and the final de- cision of the judges bears witness to the intensity of the clash. The Blue and Gold team was composed of Helen Thompson, Helen Campbell, and Marie Woodward, with Gladys Danielson as alternate. Katherine Turner showed that the Mon- roe Doctrine hampers our growth as a world power, after which Marie Woodward showed in a concise style of delivery that experience has demonstrated its efficacy as a national policy. After Frances Reckon's explanation of the fact that the policy of Monroe causes economic, commercial, and financial loss, Helen Thompson proved that it prevents the spread of the European monarchies in the Western Hemisphere. Gertrude Kessel delivered a well pre- pared speech in a snappy, eat-'em-up way. Helen Campbell ended the discussion for the negative by showing in a style charac- terized by earnestness and conviction that the Monroe Doctrine is a veritable embodi- ment of the ideals and standards upon which our republic was founded. During the four-minute rebuttal pe- riods, our girls displayed a thoroughness and spontaneity which was due largely to the faithful and untiring energy of the able alternate, Gladys Danielson. Our team concluded the contest and accepted a 2 to 3 decision in a manner worthy of West- port. Themost that we can hope for is that their spirit and pep may be inculcated into next year's teams and lead on to a double victory in 1918. 1 ',l .

' Q -E J f X N ' I V , 1 i KEVERYWOMANU It may be truly said that Westport's dramatic star of fame had reached its zenith on the night of December 22, 1916, when Walter BroWn's modern morality play, Everywoman, was staged in the Westport Auditorium. In many Ways this Was one of our most ambitious thea- trical Ventures. The play depicts the Wan- derings of Everywoman in search of Love, who at last is found to be the sonrof Truth. The cast handled the production like veterans and skillfully conducted a performance which has proven trouble- some to professional companies. The performance as a Whole gave evi- dences of great dramatic ability and each character Was clearly defined and round- ed out under the careful supervision of Mr. Humphrey. The affair was pulled off with a vim and snap that entertained from the first of the first act until the fall of the curtain on the last, and the Christmas Play of '17 can be placed alongside West- portis other accomplishments with pride. Florence Randall as Everywoman, gave a truly remarkable interpretation of her difficult role and fully deserved the praise which has been accorded her. Bob Dick- son as King Love the First appeared to be in his native element. William An- thony made an excellent Nobody. Cath- erine Walrod, Helen Phenneger, and Mar- garet Benton as Youth, Beauty, and Mod- esty, charmingly portrayed their parts as EveryWoman's champions. Wealth, alias Leo Finkelstein, made one believe he really had some dough, and Dan Silber- burg starred as Lord Witless, with that vacant stare, cane, spats, and monocle. John Madden and John O'Keefe as Bluff and Stuff made ideal theater managers, lacking only the realistic touch of the in- evitable long, black cigar. Truth, the mother of King Love, was impressively played by Dorothy Matticks. All the music was composed by West- port students. The dance of the chorus girls was one of the chief attractions, of the play and displayed Miss Bell's effici- ency and ability as. an instructor of the Terpsichorean art. The supers added greatly to the atmosphere and general ef- fect. In fact, from the depths of pathos to the heights of hilarity the play had an earnestness and seriousness that cannot be denied, and this was the purpose of the author.

The Senior Plays The Seniors acquired the highest dramatic distinction Friday evening, April 27, in the Auditorium, when they staged Sidney Rosenfeld's farce, Mr. X, and Horace Fry's tragedy, Little Italy. From the heights of mirth to the depths of tragedy, the dramatic art and mirthful frivolity was preserved without blemish. In Mr. X, the title role of Xerxes Xavier, Mr. X for short, an insurance agent, who is successively mistaken for a poet, a humanitarian, a winner of lottery prizes, and a murderer, was creditably pre- sented by Foster Strong. The part of Molly, the maid with the treacherous mem- ory and about whose lack of mental con- centration the plot centers, was very clev- erly portrayed by Marceline Law. George Wieda fairly lived his part of Mr. Anthony Henn, the irascible old father of Jessie, the principal feminine character, in which Fern Bewyer displayed unusual talent. Easter Patterson was particularly well casted as Jessie's aunt, Miss Mathilda Henn, a char- acteristic old maid, and Charles Nicolet, alias Joshua Tick, a telegraph operator, appeared to be wafted into the skies above by the celestial and heavenly Visage of the fair Jessie. The comedy was followed by the present- ation of Little Italy. Marguerite Stemmons as Guilia, an Ital- ian, homesick for the sunny fields and shady vales of her native land, played one of the most difficult parts of the evening in a manner highly complimentary to her- self and to her able coach, Mr. Humphrey. Mattie Lightner undertook the masculine personification of Michele, an itinerant street singer, and the impassioned love scene between him and Guilia was a rare f G4 J if J ' .

Eugenia Haydon El Trovador On April 11, one of Westport's best lan- guage plays, El Trovador, was given by the Circulo Calderon before the largest au- dience that ever turned out for a club play. Never before has any society of Westport High School attempted anything so elabor- ate in the way of costumes and scenery, and so difficult a play to produce. Much credit must be given to Mr. Phillips' per- sistency in drilling the cast. Meldon Everett, as Leonor, gave a re- markable interpretation of her difficult part of a weak character, who knowing her duty, had neither strength nor will to ac- complish it. John Jordan as the Trovador played his amorous part so well that a translation of it was not necessary in order to be understood. Harry Heite as Don Nuno played his unscrupulous and weak character with exceptional skill. Helen Carver as Azucena did not let us lose sight for a minute of the mortal conflict in her soul between vengeance for her mother and her love for Manrique. Don Guillen, Leo- nor's brother, was a brother to be feared, as played by George Weston. Guzman, Jimeno, and Ferrando, taken by John O'Keefe, Willard Pierce, and Irene Seek- inger, were as all well trained servants are, gossipers. Ruiz, the faithful servant of Manrique, and Jimena, lady in waiting of Leonor, were well played by Ned Edwards and Sara Burman. One of the chief charms of the play was the songs taken from Il Trovatore, that were sung by some of the girls. The au- dience was one of the most appreciative ever seen at Westport.

The play is a very amusing little farce about the unsuccessful attempt of a young married woman to cook a dinner for guests after her cook has left. Everything is either so salty or so badly burned that it cannot be eaten, but in spite of a very heated discussion and many tears all is for- given at last. ' Mildred Wine interpreted the part of Hertha, the wife, very well. Arnold and Seeberg were well played by Harold Smith and Louise Michael. Julia LeVine, as Trudchen, Mattie Lightner, as Ulrike, and Ray Edmunds, as Wittkow, lent themselves admirably to the spirit of the play. -Ruth Piper. Clay Club Play The Clay Club thrust aside the moss- eaten custom and broke into the progres- sive when it presented Shakespeare's Taming of the Shrew in the Auditorium, Friday, May 11. The presentation was an interesting piece of work considering the short time in which it was prepared. Miss Wilson and Mr. Humphrey furnished valu- able assistance, as did Miss Lucille Hayes, pianist, Miss Kelly, and Miss Matticks. CAST Katherine, the Shrew ..............

It is one of the first cities to adopt military 'training in its high schools. At one of the January meetings of the School Board, the following resolution was passed: Resolved, That the Wyoming Plan of Military Training be hereby add- ed to the list of elective subjects in the high school curriculum. Accordingly, at the end of the first semester, Captain E. Z. Steever, U. S. A., was in the city organiz- ing the cadet classes. The resolution went into effect at the beginning of the second semester. After a week's delay, the drill sergeants arrived and work be- gan in earnest. The Westport and North- east companies are drilled by Sergeant Herman Shirloh. Sergeant Weeks drills the Central and Manual cadets. Lieuten- ant Ray C. Baird has the supervision of all the cadet companies and their activi- ties. . The cadet corps is organized into com- panies, according to the orders of the War Department, each company consisting of not more than 80, and not fewer than 50 cadets. The company organization is as follows: one cadet is appointed company leader, one assistant company leader, two platoon leaders, and two assistant platoon leaders. The remaining cadets are formed into squads of 8 each. A cadet is chosen from each squad to lead his squad. The platoons are made by dividing the number of squads into two parts. The competitive units formed from the com- pany are, 115, the infantry drill unit, 125, the wall-scaling unit, 135, the firing com- petition unitg 145, troop leadership unit, and 155, camp and field units. These di- visions take part in the competitive drills, mentioned below. At present, all the cadets are in their first semester of this training, in other words, rookies, so that there is not a va- riety of activities of which to boast. On the evening of April 28, our cadet corps held a Competitive Show in the gymnasium. It gave the patrons an op- portunity to see the nature of the work done by our Cadet Corps and Red Cross Class. The features of the program were in the following order: a band concert, the grand march, inspection by Mr. Shouse, Superintendent I. I. Commack, Lieutenant Baird, and others, presentation of colors to the corps' sponsor, Miss Jane Greiner, battlion review, practical demonstration of their work by the Red Cross class, a wall- scaling contest, and a final band piece. In addition to this, the cadets have en- joyed two military hikes, one on April 14, and the second on May 5. On these tramps, the cadets put to practical use the maneou- vers learned in class, and became acquaint- ed with the method of making a camp, camp hygiene, and learned the desirable points for a good camp situation.

However, only forty could be accommodated in the two classes of twenty each, and it was necessary to resort to lot in the organization. These classes were organized for the preparation and applica- tion of surgical dressings. The interest of the local Red Cross has been centered on the High School classes, as they were the first to make the ban- l 1--iv?-in -f--gf.-p 5 J. -,-'rg 5-vi-1 rv-1-J .1 1.-. e-A 1.x-mmm... i Red Cross ' A dages according to American, in preference to French instructions. Two classes are instructed every Thurs- day afternoon for two hours under the in- struction of Mrs. Estelle Koch and Miss Elinor Keeley, Superintendent of St. Luke's Hospital. The hour is spent in lecturing and in the preparation of bandages. Each girl has prepared a kit consisting of compresser, laparotomy pads, surgical rolls, surgical sponges, fracture pillows, and other hospital supplies of their own making. At the end of the course of twelve les- sons, examinations were given, which if passed, entitled one to a certificate show- ing that she had completed the course in surgical dressings. In addition to this the girls were given military drill for two hours each week in order to give them the instruction so nec- essary in making a correct appearance at public performances.

Whether a club is kept up to a high mark or not is shown by the school's opin- ion of it, and this is one reason for con- cluding that the Round Table has passed through one more highly successful year. We have not only conducted our meetings so interestingly as to keep our large mem- bership Working together, but We have been brought to the front by the exertions of the members in every line of school ac- tivity. We fairly bristle with artists- vocal, piano, cartoon, and poster artists- as many as any club could desire. We had representatives in the Christmas play -Florence Randall in the leading role, and many others with smaller parts. We had a member on the basketball squad.

The sole sen- ior officer of the fair Sex is counted among our number, and finally, We had several members on the Senior play cast. In the tragedy of this year's senior plays, Jason Jones had the leading male part, though we cannot imagine him in any except comic acting.

Suffice it to say the club recovered rapidly and has been able to at- tain as strong a club as usual. We have devoted most of our time to the study of the opera, the drama, and the essay. Most of this material was taken from foreign literature, such as Greek, Roman, and English. The last two or three meetings were consumed in the study of American authors. We are proud of the interest our mem- bers have taken in the various school ac- tivities. On the Crier-Herald Staff our club is represented by Ray Hazelton, Edward Gookins, Oliver Brackett, Bob Malcolmson, and our President, Hubert Parker. On glancing at the cast of the Christ- ......MR.WARD mas play, we perceive that Robert Dick- son, Hubert Parker, Glen Kendall, and George Berry were loyal Irvings. Then, too, we have four members who were on the debating team. These were Leslie Lyon, Ray Hazelton, Robert Dick- son, and Hubert Parker. In track and basketball work, we have supporters in Ray Hazelton, Ray Edmunds, and Hubert Parker. We also have reason to boast that Ray Hazelton is President of the Senior class and President of the Westport division of the High School Club. The Vice-Presi- dent of the Westport division of the High School Club is Hubert Parker, who is also Junior Sergeant-at-Arms. The Irvings have four military officers, namely: Fred Lyman, Fuller Ross, Fran- cis Gerhart, and Bob Malcolmson. -Fuller Ross, Sec. U 4 ' ' 1 - f - - .. . .V - -.,- W... - g,,..i-..,:-.

It has had good meetings With interesting debates and parliament- ary, law drills. Everyone took an interest in the meetings and took part in the pro- grams. Among its activities was a triangular track meet, Clay, Irving, and an outside club taking part. In the inter-Society mixer the Clay Club expressed their thoughts in actions Cthey say actions speak louder than Wordsb as to how the play, EveryWoman should have been played. Probably future stage managers will profit by the Clay Club's example and choose a heroine on the principles of Shorty George Weston. The club had an . . . . .MR.

The Clay Club was represented in all the activities of the school except the girls' debate teams fit has never succeeded in gaining a monopoly in this activityb. In athletics the Clays were represented on the track teams and inter-class basketball teams. It had members on the school plays, boys' debate teams, and the Crier and Herald Staffs. The Clays might also add that the president of the Junior Class, Jack Kollmann, is a member of that club. Much of the success of the club is due to the Work of our adviser, Mr. Roberts, and that of the presidents. -Chas.

This year, the seventh year of the ex- istence of the Pundit Club, will go down in history as one of her most profitable and successful years. This has been due to the interest of an unusually large per cent of members shown in each program. The characteristic feature of our pro- grams, naturally, since we are a debating club, has been a debate. We have had se- rious debates, less serious debates, funny debates, and ridiculous debates. Besides debating, we have made a study of the social life and customs of foreign coun- tries, and such countries as India and Tur- key have been discussed. Great talent has also been shown on our programs in mut- sical and reading ability. At Christmas time we joined the Pundit SECOND TERM President. . ...........

The year of 1917 has been one of mark- ed success for the Schiller Verein. Al- though the membership at the opening of the year was small, due to the graduation of so many of our members last spring, there has been a steady growth until now the Verein has one of the largest member- ships in its history. The names of many of the best undergraduates of the school have been placed on the c1ub's roster. Great praise is due the program commit- tee for the most excellent programs they have provided. The study of represen- tative German literature has proved most interesting and instructive. Some excel- lent papers have been given. Besides the study of the works of the principal au- thors, recitations and musical numbers and German games have varied the pro- grams and rendered the meetings most en- joyable. One of the rare treats of the ....MISS ROSS year was the Victrola concert given by Mr. Beckmann at the Thanksgiving meet- ing. At the last meeting the German com- edy, Versalzen, was successfully pre- sented to the amusement of all. -E X The Verein has pleasure in offering its good will and congratulations to Mr. Beck- mann, its former adviser, now Vice-Prin- cipal of Westport. Miss Ross, the Verein's present adviser, has been untiring in her efforts for the strength and life of the organization, and to her also thanks for the excellence of the interesting programs are due. Miss Young, the new German teacher, has also rendered valuable assist- ance. Taking it all in all, the Schiller Verein has had a most interesting, most enjoyable year-one that will live always for each one of its members.

The Circulo Calderon is one of the strongest societies in Westport. One and the greatest reason for this, is our adviser, Mr. Phillips.

We were then naturally under an influence for progress. 'Perhaps it would be ,Well to state the manner in which We conduct our meetings and the Work we have undertaken this year. It is our custom to form a circle during our meetings. Not a Word of Eng- lish is spoken in any meeting unless for the purpose of enlightening a poor awe- stricken Freshman.

Also in the past year our programs have been filled with very delightful and especially intellectual papers on Spanish poetry, music, and va- rious forms of art. Probably the highest pleasure bestowed upon us was the honor of having a group of Physical Ed girls under the direction of Miss Bell present a Spanish Dance.

The second year of Les Faineantsn has been brought to a successful close. As the second act is always the one in which the play grows interesting, this year has increased the in- terest of all French students in Les Faine- ants and the work we are taking up. The club was founded for the purpose of increasing our general knowledge of French and the French, and there are few, if any, who have not improved, at least in their ability to understand the language. As a general rule, when we have entered the club, we have been tongue-tied, as far as speaking French goes.

Particularly interesting was the program in which Miss De Witt de- picted to us the true conditions of France in war-time in her talks, Paris During the War.

We feel that it is unnecessary for the History Club to employ this space to let you know of our members and their doings, for we are quite sure that we have had sufficient publicity without. We have spread our fame from Leavenworth, Watt's Mill, and Quindaro to Independence. Although we have studied but little His- tory in our club programs, we have created much of it in our hikes to the above named places. Through our members we have been rep- resented in the debate, basketball, and track teams, in the class offices, and in the Christmas and Senior play casts. alt is undoubted that from our ranks shall come many famous citizens, actors, and lawyers. . . . .MR. I-IARMAN The History Club, as a step toward the perfection to which it is so near, in the latter part of the year adopted an inaug- ural ritual, emotional, pathetic, and sub- lime. The debt which the organization owes to its adviser is one that is appreciated by all members of the club who have ob- served his club loyalty and fidelity. In the years to come may this History Club enjoy, if possible, greater successes, and may their heritage be properly cared for, the good thereof to be cherished as a guide to our ideal, and the bad with all its memories to be confisticated and for- ever forgotten. -Jason W.

We feel that the club is sure to thrive, since, in addition to the difficulties of drawing up a constitution and adopting a pin, the club has, in its first year, built up a membership of thirty. For a pin We have selected a small silver and purple imitation of a retort bearing the letter NC!! The programs of the meetings have been of great value to its members.

LOUIS FOLEY Advisers MISS VAN NEMAN I In the Herald of 1916, the Science Club was very proud of itself, because its mem- bership had grown until it Was equal to and even greater than that of the last year, before, although many of its last year members were lost by graduation. This year the Science Club was divided into three divisions, one of which is the Biology Club, of which only one member of the Science Club, Earl Donaldson ,Is a member. Should not the Biology Club be proud of the fact that it has a membership twice that of the former Science Club? Not only have We been successful in our increase in membership, but also in the carrying out of our Work. The subjects of our Study have been birds and trees. That which We study one meeting about trees, We study the next about birds. The MISS HENRY first term Was spent in organizing, and in acquainting ourselves With the classifica- tion and minute study of birds and trees. During this term We have had such sub- jects as Bird Reservations, the Rela- tion of Birds to Millineryf' and S Tree Protection Against Fungus Disease, In- sects, and Animals. In addition to the reading of the papers, We have had read- ings, illustrations by the lantern, and field trips, combined With hikes and Nvvienie roasts. Our success has been due to, first, the loyal support of the members to the club and officers, second, the appealing quali- ties of the subjects, but to a larger extent to the untiring efforts of our advisers, Miss Henry and Miss Van Neman. eUarda Clippenger, Sec. r. 1,21 .-Ir.1i-.--3--if I Y...':1.f,1f.'l'l:.-1J,'Q.-J :.L1:.-:4.Z.-.- :T.4,.

HILL Radio was organized last October by an enthusiastic group of Westport wireless wizards who believed that new ideas and valuable suggestions could be more easily and efficiently obtained by a club than by the individual operators. As the organiz- ation had for its purpose the promotion of the interest in wireless among West- port students, little time was devoted to the parliamentary side of the club. Programs for the meetings were ar- ranged so as to present each time articles of current importance, theoretical discus- sions, explanation of apparatus, and per- sonal experiences of members in the wire- less field. In this way the subject was well handled, considering the limitations of time imposed by the shortness of the school year. SECOND TERM President. . . ..................

Thus far, nothing particular has been said about those of the club who were made members while yet uninitiated into the mysteries of this wonderful science. They displayed such interest in the' sub- ject that they presently became intelli- gent speakers and experimenters in wire- less. Yes, Radio expects to install a wireless station at Westport in the near future, provided that the present interest and sup- port of the science is maintained. We are a young club, but we feel we have suc- cessfully fallen into line with the other clubs of the school, and we intend to re- main a permanent institution of Westport High.

Instead of 'handling everything himself, the Coach assigned a squad man to every team, and the innovation produced a noticeable im- provement in the brand of court pastime displayed by the interclassers. The spizzerinktious Sophomores took a wild leap for glory and landed squarely in the spotlight by finishing first in class per- centage. Each Soph aggregation took sec- ond in its respective league, making the combined average of the '19-ers just a bit better than that of the Seniors. Third place went to the Juniors, and the Freshmen brought up the rear. . Prof. J. Red Gottlieb, coach of the A Juniors, taught his pupils so much inside stuff that they just naturally had to cop the major league gonfalon. Following the Sophomore runners-up were Flo Kirkpat- rick's Freshmen and Herb Evans' Seniors. In B, the Seniors prospered under the tutelage of Kewpie' Cooke and nosed out Erie Helm's Sophomores for the pennant, with Lib Tracy's Freshmen and Honus Bowman's Juniors trailing. An indication of the classy article of basketball put up by the interclass athletes is seen in the amount of squad material developed. Coach Hoopes picked the fol- lowing eight for either his first squad or the squad reserve: Spruill, a Senior 5 Brigham, a J uniorg Durr and Dodge, Soph- omores, Speck, Rudolph, Reicher, and Ellet, Freshmen. ' No official all-star teams were picked, but the consensus of opinion had the make-up of the mythical fives as follows: 'U I-In is U1 Cf' Pi cn sw 3 L15 PU: 3 'SE I s: . rn U1 CD 0 o 5 CL Pi co S9 E . . . . . .Spruill CCD . ........ . .

INTERSCHOLASTIC LEAGUE Variety maybe the spice of life, but the folk over at Central of late years appar- ently have not been going on that theory. At any rate, the career of the Blue and White basketeers and their followers for the last three years has been entirely sans spice, and the Centralians seem to have stood it remarkably well. Three Inter- scholastic League seasons have seen the pupils of James Ulrich Young dragging out their lives in one long monotony of victory, and yet, during the whole joyful jamboree, , ,, N, E.. ,Q 'v ,Aim 1 A 4...

More than that, Blue and White supporters have just about arrived at the conclusion that Central is the salt of the earth in a bas- ketball way, so much so that they say all loyal Centralites have put a ban on the use of spices in the lunch-room and are using Na Cl alone for seasoning purposes in order to symbolize their membership in the ,select circles of basketballdom. Now this idea of being the real terres- trial sodium chloride in the line of court pastime is not calculated to give rise to unanimous votes of approval from West- port, Northeast, and Manual, Whose sup- porters, being of an inquisitive frame of mind, naturally are curious to know who untied such a crude specimen of tauriform monstrosity. But the trouble is that for a fact Central is the high mucky-muck, basketballically speaking. She is' undis- puted monarch of all she surveys at this time, and it is the 1917 season, worse luck, which puts her supremacy beyond ques- tion. A victory in one single year may be just a flash in the pan, and a duplicate performance may be in the nature of a fluke, but a three-ply triumph of any- body's athletic machine puts the quietus on scoffers and compels recognition of the championship caliber of such a team of pastimers. This year's Interscholastic League scramble was just the same old story in the same old way for Central, cap- ping the climax of a truly remarkable three-year career of a truly remarkable court machine. For Westport, Northeast, and Manual the past season was an off-again-on-again affair of the wildest and most exciting type. Even after it was apparent that the Cen- tral champions could not be headed in their mad pennantward course, the interest of fans and fanettes was kept at a high pitch by the merry battle for the runner- up position waged by the other three schools. Manual early developed a liking for the cool, secluded spot down in the basement, and it looked for a time as if the Crimson had cinched the cellar cham- pionship, leaving the Northeasters and the home talent to fight it out for second. But an unexpected victory over the Rootlets injected a bit of ambition in the toboggan- ing Fifteenth Streeters, and thereafter the reformed Selvidge proteges struck out for the higher things in life. They made con- siderable progress, too, before the season's close put a stop to their upward trend. Just as Westport and Northeast were pre- paring to take the runner-up station on a 50-50 basis, the fast-traveling Crimson five caught the confident ones and forced them to split second place three ways, all of which Captain Harry North allows was a rude but still a necessary procedure. This same quintet was the pre-season pennant choice of a majority of dopesters. Coach Selvidge started with a whole team of letter men which looked on paper to be the class of the league, and Central might have been dethroned and a new champion might have been crowned if North and his mates had begun the season at the same clip at which they finished. Their tardy spurt found them in the form pre- dicted for them from the beginning, but their early-season procrastination had done the damage. Central, with a powerful ag- gregation built around the veterans, Sing- er and Sanders, struck her true stride from the first, and, though meeting with tough, torrid, and turbulent tussels with her rivals, Manual in particular, the Blue and White could not be headed. In the Beginning-Sadness The home talent helped to usher in the season by entertaining the Northeasters in the Central gym. The start was not auspi- cious, however, for most of the enjoyment went the way of the Purple to the tune of a 31-24 count.

The first point of the game was manufactured by Loyal Constant Knol- lin, the Belle of Loma Vista, on a free throw. Goals by Gottlieb, Munsell, and Tracy, while the Rootlets were collecting five points, left the foe in the rear at the quarter, 7-5. Knollin opened the second spasm by batting a goal and J . Red Gott- lieb counted from twenty feet out. But that was all for Westport in the first half. The Purple defense suddenly tightened while the offense was getting familiar with the iron ring, and the Llewellynites found themselves trailing, 15-11, at the half. The next period was the same and more of it, Westport getting only a brace of free throws while the foe was garnering points at will. Then, going into the final frame on the shortend of a 24-13 count, the Lib- lets uncovereda spurt which rapidly cut down the enemy's lead. Tracy, Elstner, Gottlieb, and Browning contributed baskets which swelled the Tiger total rapidly, but in the meantime the Rootlets were count- ing seven tallies, and the last domestic points, a pair of 'em made by Lefty Louie Elstner, left Westport in the rear, 31-24. Forrest De Bernardi and Paul Jones were leading Purple scorers with nine and eight tallies, respectively. Pauly, Captain Ment- zer, and Harling did most of the remaining damage for Northeast. Gottlieb led the Liblets with eight counters and was ma- terially aided by Knollin, Elstner, and Tracy. Lay Off, Macduff ! The next time out found the Llewellyn- ites victims of the Central champs in a nightmarish affair which wound up in a 40- 16 score. It certainly was a queer sort of contest. Cap'n Lib and his men took an early lead on a pair of nifty shots by Browning and Gottlieb and gratis goals by the same pair and Elstner. Central mean- while couldn't get going, and Westport had a four-point margin at the quarter, 7-3. But the Youngsters didn't like the rear- end idea, and they lost no time in showing it. Singer pried open the second frame with a 2-ply flip, Duvall did likewise, and George Williams tossed a free throw. Red Gottlieb counted the only domestic points of the quarter on a sparkling side shot which was sandwiched between a pair of goals bearing the Singer label, and the ene- my was ahead at the half, 12-9. But that Central spurt was just a prelude to the real fireworks. Gottlieb, Browning and Elstner contributed baskets to vary the monotony of Central counters, and the score at the end of the third session was not so bad, 26-15. But the Tigers went to pieces in the final frame and laid the set- ting for the pyrotechnics bymaking an as- cension which carried them up so far that they didn't settle down during the whole period. The enemy shot baskets at will after the Tiger blow-up, while the Liblets tallied a lone point on Pidge Browning's free throw, and when the smoke had cleared away somebody said the score was 40-16. Milt Singer snagged eight baskets, Wil- liams copped five, Duvall and Sanders flip- ped a pair and all four made 1-pointers. For the Liblets, Gottlieb was author of seven counters, Browning collected six, and Elstner kicked in with three. As You Like It After debuting disastrously and running into more tragedy the second time out, a rejuvenated quintet of Tigers took on the Selvidge-North athletes and with consider- able neatness and the same variety of dis- patch took off the victory. It was a par- ticularly luscious bit of joyfulness for Westporters, because the much-touted Crimson five was accorded an edge by the dopesters, and the Manual followers had visions of a soft contest when they saw the reconstructed machine that came onto the flooj L. wou basl his 1 up 1 shif Geo: Bro' Hoo G.

But L. Llewellyn Hoopes isn't what anyone would call an amateur in the realm of basketballic diagnostics, and the success of his new combination showed he had sized up the situation expertly. Gottlieb was shifted to center and a second team star, George Cotton Reeves, was inserted as Browning's running mate at forward. And Hoopes made no mistake when he shoved G. Cotton into the going. The towhead is a shy, bashful, demure little chap who has such a sweet and innocent countenance that he would never be thought so rude as to harbor the wicked intention of busting up anybody's ball game, but George plunged straight into the fury of the fray, speedily struck up a close acquaintance with the basketball, which was not at all like his usual bashful self, and found himself, when the final gunshot flashed the game into history, with as big a share of the glory as any one of the victorious Tigers. And that commodity was due to everyone of the Liblets in huge packages, for Tracy and his mates clearly outclassed the ene- my, though wild shooting kept the score down. Both teams started slowly, the offense in each case finding it hard to break through the opposing defense. Free throws by North and Koenigsdorf gave Manual her only points in the first session, while the home talent was counting a trio on a sweet basket by Browning and a gratis goal by Tracy. Pretty passing by Joe, Cot- ton, and Pidge held the spotlight in the initial spasm and continued to feature the second quarter. This, too, was a light- scoring period. Reeves manufactured three Tiger tallies all by his lonesome while North and Koney were garnering an enemy trio, and the half ended with the Llewellyn- ites one up, 6-5. Pidge Browning opened the third frame with a free throw and Kirk- patrick, Reeves, and Munsell followed suit, whereupon Flo Kirkpatrick judged the time auspicious for kicking in with a spark- ling shot from the center, and, so judging, so kicked. Meanwhile, Harry North and Hobe Gilmore were flipping a goal apiece, and Sammy Dubin's free toss left the Lib- lets with a 2-point margin at the quarter, 12-10. Dubin's basket, following a Pea- body-Browning exchange of gratis goals, then knotted the score, but it was soon untied by J. Red Gottlieb's field counter. Pidge took it unto himself to go out and do likewise, and then Josephus R. got frisky with the leather and caged it for a brace of goals. A nifty shot by Dubin, following Munsell's free flip, was all for Manual, and a single-pointer by W. Hans Bowman as the game ended made the score 21-15, with the margin leaning the right way. Browning's six points were high for Westport. The Manual forwards, owing to the classy guarding of Cap'n Lib and Flo Kirk, amassed the hefty total of three field goals, augmented by Gilmore's basket. Koney Koenigsdorf tossed a trio of gratis goals, and Reeves, Browning, Munsell, and North hooked a pair apiece. Joyfulness Again The following Friday found the men of Hoopes on the home court at last, and they opened their domestic stay in the most ap- proved style. The Northeasters were sec- ond party to the ceremonies, and they proved very pleasing guests by surrender- ing the court pastime to the tune of 32-20. The Tiger offensive trio, Joe, Pidge, and Cotton, was playing rings around the ene- my defense, while Tracy and Kirkpatrick were displaying a high degree of efficiency in squelching the Rootlet forwards. That domestic duo of diminutive demons, Brown- ing and Reeves, were cavorting as only those midget stars can, and the Purple fol- lowers were discomfited with an exceeding great discomfiture at the ease with which the two Georges and Joe penetrated the Rootlet defense. - 1...4-.B..3--.-.f.4....1.,..-..,.L-..s...,.,......L...f,. ...:.T.?.7,-,fwvj-.,73-5 Q-g .. ., . 1-, .,. . rch: .r '. 1 rr-va-rv-r .1 -N-x s 1-1- 74 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. The Liblets jumped into the lead at the start and never were headed. Four baskets and a free flip gave the home talent a 9-4 lead in the first frame, and they went a- goaling again in the next session for an- other nine points while the foe piled up an- other quartet of counters. Mentzer, Jones, and De Bernardi lent a helping hand with a goal apiece in the third session, but the game was already in the domestic cooler. The Tiger offensive triplets, under the able leadership of J. R. Gottlieb, continued to cage the oblate spheroid at will, and, when the gun put an end to the fes- tive fracas, the Llewellynites were on the long end of 32-20 count. For the Rootlets, Jones, Capt. Mentzer, and De Bernardi did all the scoring. Gott- lieb was the big domestic noise, copping seven goals as his share of the evening's festivities. Reeves and Browning manu- factured the same number of baskets be- tween them by way of announcing their presence, which, however, was sufficiently noticeable not to need any special adver- tising. G. Liberty Tracy and M. Flos Kirk- patrick also staked a claim for a hefty bit of the praise by their sterling defensive performance, which kept the enemy for- wards at a safe distance while the other Tigers were doing the damage. Central Again-'Nuff Sed Two victories had enabled the Llewellyn- ites to find themselves and gain the neces- sary confidence to carry the fight all the way into the Central camp on the following Friday. Hoopes' quintet did that, too 3 but the Youngsters took advantage of numer- ous Westport fouls and carted off a 37-28 win. It was a tough fracas to lose. J. Red Gottlieb and the midget Georges played brilliantly and kept up a continuous attack on the enemy goal which netted 13 baskets, while the Lib-Flo department kept Cen- tral's Singer machine fairly well sewed up and allowed the whole Blue and White of- fense just the same number of goals. But the Llewellynites perpetrated fifteen breaches of basketballic etiquette while the foe was committing five, and those fouls were precisely what caused the decline and fall of the home talent. The Tigers hit a fast clip from the tip off, and the lead they piled up in the first frame was hefty enough to give the stout- est Central supporter an uncomfortable feeling in the insides. Singer and Reeves exchanged free throws to pry open the contest. Jose Gottlieb then introduced a charming pair of baskets, whereupon Pidge Browning went about the business of doing likewise. Milt and Cotton then made an- other exchange, this time of 2-ply coun- ters, and the close of the quarter, shortly after Williams' free throw, found the count 11-4 with a domestic flavor. The South- easters began an uphill climb in the second session which clipped a trio of tallies off the Liblet lead. Two lengthy shots by Singer and a sextet of single-pointers brought the enemy total up to 14 at the half, but the Tiger Triangle contributed a goal per each and Pidge tossed a free throw which left the Llewellynites with a margin of four points. The Youngsters, though, were coming fast, and the third frame was the turning point. Gottlieb in- serted a choice pair of baskets after Sing- er's 2-ply fling had opened the session, but now, just when it seems we should be able to crow lustily, we find ourselves forced to put on the soft pedal. The Tigers, ambling along with the game apparently iced, lost their pepful spirit and became painfully tame after suffering a sudden at- tack of the Blues, who at once took charge of the festive fray and rudely headed it toward the Central cooler. The count was knotted when Singer shot a brace of goals and two mates caged 15-footers, and the enemy attack netted five more tallies be- fore the spasm expired.

Joyfulness No. 3 The next game foundWestport entertain- ing the basketeers of Harley Selvidge. The Llewellynites put in a very profitable even- ing, too, in the course of which they dem- onstrated to the Crimson unbelievers that a certain pestiferous person named Virgil had the old cranial appliances running in form when he left the old homestead to tell the world about facilis descensus Averno -which, being translated into the slanguage of our day, means that the ashes on the cellar slide are few and far between. It was just to dispel from Manual minds any lingering doubts upon the subject, and not because of ulterior motives, that Cap'n Lib and his mates decided to relieve the foe of the basketball game. This they did with great gusto and eclat. Five free flips in the initial frame, aug- mented by a goal flung by Browning, gave the Tigers a lead which they never relin- quished. Thereafter the Westport offense bulged the netting at opportune moments while Tracy and Kirk were covering their men niftily. Lib occasionally found it nec- essary to escort the leather goalward and cage it all by his lonesome, and Flo would have done so himself had he not taken more pleasure in sticking to his home district and rudely interposing his hefty self be- tween the goal and the venturesome Man- ualites who came his way. The score at the half was 14-6 and the final damage was 24-14. Red Gottlieb, whose six goals in the previous game had made him high man for the home talent, again led the Tigers with half the number. Pidge, who shot five baskets in the Central contest, flung a pair this time with Cotton and Lib doing likewise. Red and Reeves flip- ped two 1-pointers apiece and Tracy and Kirk tossed one each. l.i F. De Bernardi-Meanest Man Hoopes and company tried the North- easters as hosts the next time out, but didn't grow overly enthusiastic over the Purple brand of hospitality. It was an unjoyful reception that was extended to the home talent, and most of the blame goes to one Forrest De Bernardi, a villain- ous person who did the damage as head of the Rootlet entertainment committee. The South Side forces, having disposed of Man- ual, figured to give the same treatment to the Purple and thereby clinch second place, but the activities of the enemy's red-thatched demon sent the dope awry after the Tigers had amassed hefty leads in the initial half and had finished the third quarter with a one-margin. Browning put himself on the receiving end of a pass from Tracy and basketed the leather for a starter, which highly com- mendable act Josephus Gottlieb took as his cue to make himself author of four counters by the field goal route. Cotton Reeves, a very upright youth to be sure, could see nothing wrong in such proced- ure, so he raised the Tiger total to ten by a similar performance. The Rootlets mean- while were having their troubles getting by Lib and Kirk, and their scoring activi- ties were confined to a pair of goals by Capt. Mentzer and J ones' free throw. The second session saw the Llewellynites suc- cessfully continuing their attack while the' Lib-Flos department was keeping the Pur- ple forwards well under cover, and the mid- way station was reached with the foe trail- ing at a distance, 24-15. That was nifty, and we thought we heard a dickey bird whisper in our ear something about joy unbounded and rapture unconfined. But the confounded thing must have been a lyre bird, for the third frame was still in .sm nm.: 1 -vnu- z gg.. .-. -.g..1.,.fwuzm.: ..4.f,..--.n4.4.,..a. -... :.....- - - 76 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHCOL HERALD. its infancy when De Bernardi, who had made his first goal late in the second quarter, left his guard position and applied the pulmotor to his weary mates by fling- ing a basket from some thirty feet out. Mentzer and Jones followed with goals, and then, after Lib had contributed a sparkling shot, the enemy redhead came back with another frenzied flip from a dis- tant region, knotting the count. Dana Munsell, in for Pidge, tossed a free throw which kept the Liblets ahead at the close of the period, 27-26. De Bernardi resumed his shootfest early in the final spasm with a close-in shot, and followed that with his third insane heave from long range. Tracy stopped the onslaught momentarily by making a neat basket, but De Bernardi per- petrated another demoniacal fling and Mentzer kicked in with a 2-ply counter. Gottlieb bulged the netting once and start- ed another shot toward the same place. The gun flashed, however, as the leather left J oe's hands, the goal didn't count, and the fracas was Northeast's, 34-31. Mentzer and Jones accounted for nine enemy goals, while Gottlieb was leading man for Westport with five. Lib, Cotton, and Pidge flipped three apiece. Much Ado-With Central Doing It The largest score rolled up on the Tigers during the season was amassed by Central in the next game. That fact, however, caused no particular sadness on the South Side. The Llewellynites simply took a sporting chance and failed. Hoopes risked a heady though desperate scheme in an ef- fort to take the Youngsters by surprise, but the champions were pastiming in their niftiest vein and were not to be beaten by any system, as their 25-point victory in- dicates. The whole second team faced the Blue and White at the start, with orders to hold off their opponents as well as possible for the first quarter. And, considering the team they were battling, the young Tigers did well. Cap'n Hans Bowman and Moose Munsell performed valiantly on the defense and allowed only four opposition baskets during the session. Five successive gratis goals gave the Youngsters most of their lead. The domestic portion in this frame consisted of a duo of 2-ply flings, with Paul Polo Proctor doing a solo part in their manufacture. Both of them were long shots with a decidedly Singeresque look about 'em. That quartet of points left the Blue and White on the long end of a 13-4 count at the quarter. Cap'n Lib and his mates entered the fray in the second chap- ter, but they found it hard to get started while the Youngsters were traveling at a fast clip. The game became a Central shootfest, Singer, of course, leading, and the Liblets were far in arrears at the half, 28-9. The home talent braced a bit in the third spasm and annexed seven tallies on goals by Browning, Gottlieb, and Tracy and a free flip by Pidge. The champions, though, continued on their goaling way and had a 38-16 margin when the period closed. Reeves sandwiched a neat field goal be- tween a pair of the same variety bearing the Gottlieb label, and that was all for the Llewellynites in the last canto. The final damage was 47-22. Gottlieb headed the Tigers with three 2-ply counters, with Lib and Pidge collect- ing five tallies per each. Milt Singer's handiwork in the goaling line was 22 ponts on ten baskets and a brace of free throws. The Finale-More Tragedy While the Blue and White basketeers were trimming the Purple for their twen- ty-seventh straight victory since they started their winning streak late in the 1914 season, the athletes of Hoopes and Self pea por to s if 1 pro The the to 1 thii a d i11t4 Ag.

West- port needed the victory to gain clear title to second place, and the Tigers started as if to win it and so staged a basketballic production of All's Well That Ends Well. They had a slim lead at the quarter and the midway station, but the fracas began to look like a Comedy of Errors in the third spasm, and by the final frame, from a domestic standpoint, it had degenerated into a clear-cut case of More Shinned Against Than Shinningf' Flo Kirkpatrick took a pass from Tracy and caged the leather from long range, shortly after the tip-off, for as classy a specimen of the art of basketry as they manufacture around these parts. Pidge seconded the movement by convert- ing another Tracy pass into a pair of points, and Cotton Reeves flung a goal after Dubin had registered the first brace of enemy tallies. A repeater by Dubin and Capt. North's free flip left the score 6-5 for the inital session. North and Du- bin made goals to pry open the next frame, but Jose Gottlieb brought on considerable rebuttal in the shape of a joyful trio of the same. The teams raced neck and neck for the remainder of the period, the Lib- lets retaining their slim lead at the half, 17-16. But the frolic didn't resemble itself after that. The Crimson took complete charge of affairs and ran the game like a quintet of despots. They went on a bas- keting rampage which netted them a fort- night of points while there was absolutely nihil faciens on the Tiger side, and the game was done, went, and gone. The long lean pair, Turner and Walker, broke in with goals in the last round and Pidge Browning 2-plied. The Crimson, however, were doing some business in their own ef- ficient way, and the final damage was 33-23. COURT PROCEEDINGS The second team created no great furore during the past season, but it equaled the mark of the first team by winning three and losing six for a percentage of .333, which wasn't bad considering the handicap Bowman's boys were pastiming under. Owing to shifts in the first team, the Lit- tle Tigers were shaken up considerably, and they presented a patched appearance most of the time. A new quintet of re- serves performed almost every time out, and Cap'n Bill Hans himself was out of the going on occasions when Coach Hoopes was saving him for night duty. lt was thus impossible to develop any sort of team- work, and the natural consequence was that most of the games went on the wrong side of the ledger. The three fracases that did have a domestic flavor were won at the expense of Northeast and Central, two of them being taken from the Rootlet reserves. Capt. Bowman and four Seniors-Cooke, Turner, Proctor, and Walker-formed the team that played most often, with Spruill, another Senior, and a number of under- classmen assisting. Hans and Kewpie worked niftily together, and, if they had formed the defense in every game, the Ti- gerlets would have copped more victories. Harry Turner outjumped every opponent and bulged the netting with pleasing reg- ularity, while Paulo Proctor was a tireless worker who was good for three or four baskets a game. Cliff Walker, whose cor- poreal equipment includes two optics a la eagle and a pair of remarkably lengthy brachial appendages, was leading scorer for the Bowmanitesg and he certainly made the leather behave for him. George Spruill, champion shotsmith of the interclass se-A ries, was a consistent performer when he got into the going. Speaking of the second team, we are led to the consideration of prospects for next year. We need make no premature boasts, ..,....:,...-.------ --1 '- '- ' ' 'mth sb ' .nh- 78 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. for such is but the favorite pastime of chronic losers who seek to cover up their evident weakness with profuse advance ad- vertising, and, however few champion- ships Westport has won lately, L. L. Hoopes has gained a reputation for turning out real basketball teams which need neither pre-season press-agenting nor post- season apology. It is nevertheless inter- esting to look forward and try to dope out the Tigers' chances next winter, and we may be pardoned for taking a reasonable amount of pride and satisfaction as we see that all present calculations warrant the belief that Clan Llewellyn is scheduled to cut a very tolerable sort of figure in the 1918 Interscholastic League scramble. Provided that the call of the leathern spheroid lures Loyal Constant Knollin from his Loma Vista farm, our guess is that the Tigers will line up next year much after this manner: Reeves and Knollin, for- wards , Gottlieb, center, Munsell and Bow- man, guards. And if anybody's court pas- timers calculate to pull this venividivici stuff on such an aggregation with the same frequency that it was pulled on the home talent this year, we believe the same will come in due time to see the error of their ways. For the above mentioned five form a mighty nifty court machine. Gott- lieb's playing during the past season won him the pivot position on the first all-star team ,Reeves showed himself to be a midget marvel, a wizard at handling the ball, and an accurate shot, Knollin, Munsell, and Bowman proved their worth as first-line re- serves, so all will be veterans next year. Among the second-string forwards, Ralph Brigham, Dave Dodge, Hal Durr, and Paul Jackson will be back. Brigham, a Junior, is light but fast, and he might make a capable running-mate for Reeves, should Knollin not return. At center, Ed Speck and George Chandler will assist Gottlieb if necessary, and on the defense there will be ample reserve material in Rudolph, Reich- er, and perhaps Shutz. Our next most important concern is the chances of the Central champions to repeat next year, and here again there is cause for encouragement. All praise is due to J. U. Young and his boys, who have made a phenomenal record in the last three years, climaxed when they brought the state championship to Kansas City this spring, but there will be no particular weeping or wailing or gnashing of teeth around the other three high schools when Singer, Williams, Sanders, and Ramsay are graduated this year. It is said that Duvall may be back, but his return would leave the Blue and White with only two vet- erans, the other being Burke, a big guard who did relief duty in the last campaign. Coach Young will be a miracle man for certain if he is able to turn out another winner under such odds. Another circumstance points to the crowning of a new monarch in local high school basketballdom in 1918. There seems to be in athletics a definite Rule of Three, an unwritten law which very seldom fails of operation, in connection with sport championships. The rule is that, in regu- lar annual campaigns, a team can finish on top three times in a row, but must bow to 'defeat the fourth time. Take, for instance, two such diverse examples as major league baseball and our local interscholastic track and field competition. Several diamond aggregations have won three straight pen- nants, but not the master minds of base- ball, pilots of the type of Jennings, Chance, Mack, Clarke, Stallings, and McGraw, have been able to lead their men to four suc- cessive championships. Here at home, the Tigers of L. Llewellyn Hoopes took three straight Quadrangulars and then, with prospects apparently favorable for a fourth triumph, were forced to take a back seat. It simply means that the life of champion- ship team is almost without exception lim- ited to three seasons, and, having seen the rule work out to Westport's disadvantage in ti ketb It less, port A witl ing' dina com who and in tl thin take of N thin rita dow duc' the1 alto indi' as 2 F esta higl San hon was didi The .the ish, of ceiw J wh' claf cor cla: sch Het Joe tioi . .. f.' , 1 1. :-i.1i.':.--,2:'.g ......--pL.g.i.f.::'1:.,-4...:,g.-.4-1-4-..f4.,... -mm ..,.........m. - - ' :1v:,, - :a:mf:.,:-gp .1,-i.,1::..: - f ..f.4.e, 1.. . . ..,......-.,.1.,gg,, ---,,,,,g, 1,.W, 4, nu gg, ' ' ' ' - L... .'.. -2'.-- 4... - L.. 1 ..-.. ...L -..-....,,-. -V 1--..:...f-- - --,.:--A-:':1'i'a'T'.:'-at-rrqrf aygargcttrliwyttwzwxil1r:i:a.1:w:v:r:rLv.:.,:4,-.vvu:v.1---- .- s. s.. . ,Q .'.,z. v.....- ..-.:,-...,-..z ..L..... 7.-.H-.P 7- - - --.'--...-....-..,. , - . .--.-,-.--.-.i.-..------ --'---'- - '- - g M mfg. , - . .- ... - - ' I the peat ause e to nave last ught this :ular eeth vhen I are ivall eave vet- uard align. for 'ther the high eems ree, fails sport 'egu- ,h on W to ance, ague rack nond pen- Jase- ance, have suc- , the zhree with ,urth seat. pion- lim- 1 the ltage THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. 79 in track, we look to see it work out in bas- ketball to our advantage. It isn't that we love Singer and Central less, but that we love Hoopes and West-u port more. A prophet isn't the only person who is without honor in his own country, accord- ing to Sigurd Sandzen, cheerleader extraor- dinary. Sig opines that there is much in common on that score between prophets, who tell the world what is going to happen, and cheerleaders, who are supposed to be in there doing their durndest to make some- thing happen-and then are supposed to take the consequences if they succeed. All of which makes Sig believe that, if any- thing, the prophet has the softer job. Ir- ritable teachers have been known to call down cheerleaders for undignified con- duct-which, of course, is the last thing they should be guilty of-and there is an altogether too plentiful supply of benighted individuals who regard megaphone-wielders as an unqualified abomination and pest. Fortunately, however, noise artists are established as indispensable fixtures in our high schools, and, when they are of the Sandzen-Simpson-King caliber, they are honored at home and abroad. Our yell trio was a scrappy, peppery aggregation which didn't need to take pointers from anybody. They were expert artists in their line, on .the job and toiling hard from start to fin- ish, and, it may be mentioned, deserving of more support than they generally re- ceived from the rooters. Josephus Gottlieb is a ponderous person who does not claim to possess the most classic figure in the world or to have a corner on the speed market, but he is the classiest basketballing center in the high schools, by consensus of expert opinion. Hence the broad grin which plays over Joe's phreckled physog when anyone men- tions the fact that Flos Kirkpatrick has found himself forced to award J. R. Gott- lieb the fat n'1an's half mile title, not, as Kirk allows, because Gottlieb is too fast for him, but because Red has become so hefty that he makes Marion look thin and the officials won't let Kirkpatrick com- pete in the same class as the redhead. Joe should worry about that. He was chosen as center on the first all-star team as of- fifiiauy picked by the coaches, officials, and sport writers of the Star. Singer, De Bernardi, Sanders, and Peabody were the other four chosen, and a person has to be a basketballing bearcat to mix in with such company. But that's Gottlieb. One of the most gratifying features of the season was the way in which Marion Kirkpatrick came back after the injury which kept him out in 1916. The big blond boy performed in big league style all the way, and his sterling work won him a guard position on the Star's second all- star aggregation. More than that, the Post gave Flos a place with Sanders on its first quintet, displacing Peabody- which is a pretty fair sign that Kirk was pastiming with unmistakable class. Following are some interesting facts gleaned from a complete summary of the past season: The league's leading scorer was, of course, Milt Singer. The Central captain's field goal record was 75. In addition, he tossed 10 lfree throws, his total points being 160, an average of approximately 13 a game. Sammy Dubin was runner-up to Singer with 41 baskets. The Manual midget's point total, including 11 gratis goals, was 93. Our own Rederick Gott- lieb was third with 35 two-ply baskets and half a dozen of the single-point variety, for a total of 7 6 tallies. In free flips alone, Williams of Central led with 14, followed by his team-mate Duvall, who was author of 13. Dubin, Pea- body, and DeBernardi tossed 11 apiece. 80 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. Turning to the other side of the ledger, we find G. Lib Tracy and Bobby Sanders knotted for the lead in fouls with 33. Lib's string included 26 personals and Sanders' 25. The honor of footing the list of offenses went to Pidge Browning, who made only a trio of technicals -and a single personal. Pidge went through the last six games without committing a foul. Browning's mate, G. Cotton Reeves, was another gen- tlemanly pastimer, being charged with only three technicals and the same num- ber of personals. Paul Jones, a Rootlet, perpetrated one and five.

Harold Richardson produced two counters by taking third in the 880-yard run. Three more points were earned when Cartwright, Lorber, Kleinsteuber, and Hughes finished third in the midget relay, and a final quin- tet were added by the Cooke-Sandzen-Mur- ray-Munsell combination in the 10-lap af- fair. The home talent was decidedly off-color in the invitation meet at the M. U.-K. U. trackfest, March 16. Central nosed out Northeast, 25-21, while Westport and Man- ual trailed-with, a trio of tallies apiece. Hoopes' athletesfirst broke into the scor- ing through the work of F. K.-or is it E. R.-Simpson, who traveled to fourth place in the 50-yard dash. The other pair of tallies was won by the midget relayists, Herndon, Cartwright, Kleinsteuber, and Hughes. High School Day at M. U., May 5 The Kansas City high schools met a tar- tar in the Missouri University meet on Rollins Field May 5, and were for once forced to see an out-sider take away the victory. Five Webster Groves athletes l- -'L alfa from St. Louis County were the Welling- tons who made the local representatives do a Napoleon, Waterloo style. The down- state performers battled on even terms with Central until their victory in the last and deciding event, the half-mile relay, gave them the meet. In the meantime, Hoopes' athletes had started slowly in the dashes and hurdles, and, though they fin- ished strong in the field events, they wound up in third place, some distance be- hind the Youngsters. Webster Groves scored 40 points, Central 35, Westport 22, Joplin 10, Manual and Northeast 7. Westport's chance for victory went glim- mering early in the meet when the dashes and hurdles produced only two domestic points. Paul Jackson topped the low sticks well and finished fourth for one counter, the other being earned by Moose Munsell in the quarter mile. Dana hit it up like a popular song all the way, and he probably would have finished better than fourth had he not used up his reserve strength pass- ing several men on the first turn. At that he crossed the line scarcely a foot behind Siler of Northeast. The shotput was another event in which the home talent drew a blank, but after that Westport was very .much in the going, chiefly through the work of the Gold and Blue captain. It certainly wasn't Cooke's fault that the Kewpielets didn't bring home the bacon. A couple more chefs per- ,u..,E, ff .

Kewpie leaped far over his head in the high jump, making the elongated George Williams extend him- self, and then frogged his way to first place and a gold medal in the broad. His marks were 5 feet 7321, and 20 feet 115. Cliff Simpson took fourth in the high and Sig Sandzen added two more tallies by winning third in the broad. Despite the Westport spurt, it was now evident to Capt. Kewpie that the Webster Grovers had cooked up a raw deal on the home boys and that the domestic bill-of- fare was going to be a baconless one, whereupon E. H. H. H. Esterle and George Chandler did the next best thing and made hogs of themselves in the pole vault. This noble bit of self-sacrifice produced eight more points and brought ithe Westport total up to a respectable size. The ath- letes, after clearing 10 feet 6 and so cinch- ing the first two places, called it a day's work and quit. The final counter was made when Cap'n Cooke, Walt Kleinsteuber, By Shutz, and Sig Sandzen took fourth in the half-mile relay. Coach Hoopes entered another team in the open quarter-mile relay, and his speedsters, Simpson, Jackson, Jordan, and Hughes, won the event. It did not count for points in the meet, but the boys won a cup for their efforts. Two ex-Westporters were the main cogs in the Polytechnic machine which gave Kemper a close race in the major division of the meet. Bahlman Parker was the big noise with firsts in the half, the 220, and the broad jump, while Tom Jarvies won the 440 and took fourth in the 100-yard dash. To complete their work, Parker led off and Jarvies ran anchor in the relay, 'which was a soft victory for Poly. The whole Westport team was quartered at the Delta Tau house and was royally en- tertained by your old friend and coach, Shanklin Aronson. The Quadrangular, May 12 Perhaps if the day had been different the results would have been different. Had it been damp and chilly, the Northeasters might not have acted as they did. But it was warm and sunny, ideal growing weather, so the natural result was that C. B. Root blossomed forth into a cham- pionship coach as his Rootlets grew into a sturdy aggregation of real athletes-and you know the rest. The Quad went to Northeast with 1495 points, Central was on the Purple's heels with 142M-3, West- port finished third with 1145, while Man- ual trailed with 22W. The aiair was particularly disastrous to Westport because it entailed not only the temporary loss of the Michigan Cup to Northeast, but also the permanent loss of the Harvard Cup, emblematic of the cham- pionship in the five major events in Class A, to Central. It was especially hard to lose the meet, too, because it is a shame that such a phenomenal performer as Lyle Cooke should not be able to lead a winning team. Lyle is an athletic marvel. As in 1916, he won three flrsts and established a record in Class C which undoubtedly will stand for all time. Last year his epoch-making performance was a leap of 22 feet 1 in the broad jump, this year it was a jump of 5 feet SM in the high. This last mark is about five inches over Cooke's height. After his remarkable work in the high jump, the captain proceeded to win the broad and the low hurdles. If ever an athlete deserved to pilot a winner, Cooke is the man. Sig Sandzen was runner-up to Cooke with first in the 220, second in the broad, and a place on the relay. Other high men were Herb Lake, tie for first in the high jump and second in the high hurdles, Walt Kleinsteuber, first in the 220 and fourth in the broad, Doug Waddell, tie for first in the high and fourth in the broad, George I4-A If 4- -1 ----'r' -- '-'-'-- ru-r v1.11 ,- 1::'v:z'v:-err'-:1:1:.n.L.m -wr - 1-as-mtv . mln., . . 84 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD.

The deciding factor in Northeast's vic- tory was the total of 54 points rolled up by her Class D men. Westport led in Classes C and B by margins which were too small to overcome the Central and Northeast leads obtained in other classes. Led by Captain George Williams, who won firsts in both hurdles and the high jumps, the Central athletes finished well ahead in Class A.

Invitation Meet, May 19 Inability to place in the dashes and hurdles and failure to strike their usual form in the field events held the Westport- ers' total at Lawrence down to 815, which placed them eighth in the meet and third among the Kansas City schools. Central again led the local teams with 2815, which won the whole affair for the Blue and White. Northeast finished just ahead of the Lyle-Llewellyn forces with 91f2, while Manual brought up the rear with 3. The game running of Dana Munsell, who took fourth in a 440-yard dash in which a new record of 51:4 was set by the win- ner, accounted for the first domestic coun- ter. George Chandler added a point in the pole vault and Capt. Cooke earned half a one in the high jump. The Kewpie then frogged his way into second place in the broad, and Lyle's side-kick, Sunset Simp- son, captured third. That was all for West- port, except a tally won in the relay by Moose Munsell, Kewpie Cooke, Sig Sandzen, and By Shutz. In a close race between By Shutz and Moose Munsell for the 1918 track cap- taincy, the latter was elected.

Competition for Westport's racquet-wielders since last September has been limited to the fall, the spring, and the K. U. tournaments. The fall tourney was a semi-official affair managed by Dick Brooke, Mr. Harn- den's aide-de-court. It drew a large list of entrants, of whom Len Smith, Nat Denebeim, Ernest Derry, and Olaf Peter- son reached the semi-finals. Peterson and Derry were finalists, and in a well-played match Olaf was crowned champion, 6-4, 6-3, 3-6, 6-2. The spring tournament was put on by Mr. Harnden for the purpose of qualifying men for the K. U. and the Interscholastic, so was not carried to the semi-final and final rounds. Peterson, Paul Proctor, John Brackett, and Forrest Alexander were sent to Lawrence. The boys were beaten in the doubles, but Alexander fought his way to the finals in the singles and triumphed over Bradshaw of K. C. K. High School for the championship. Forry received a nifty cup for his victory, which he won by a score of 1-6, 6-4, 6-3, and won his tennis HW. The Interscholastic Tournament is a new departure and a step which will go far to- ward placing tennis on a firm basis in the high schools. D. Keedy Campbell, local sport official and athletic impresario, was originator of the project, and it was through his kindness that the Rockhill Courts were secured for the matches. Mr. Campbell is referee of the tournament. A committee, including Messrs. Hornady CCD, Pinkney CND, Schneitter KMJ, and Harn- den CWD, made arrangements for the boys. Two singles and two doubles teams may be entered by each school, a player in both singles and doubles if desired. A bronze tablet is offered for the winners in both events, to be inscribed with the winners' names and to become the permanent pos- session of the school. The same number of girls' teams may be entered in each school, but a girl can play in only one event, ac- cording to the decision of the committee, which included Miss Scott KCD, Miss Stewart CND, and Miss Bell CWD. The girls' prizes were not decided upon. School letters will be awarded to the winners and runners-up in all events. The Westport numeral is a five-inch blue Italian W, The pictures are snapshots of boys and girls who qualified for the teams, but not necessarily of actual contestants, since the regulars have not yet been definitely chosen.

Q., 4 The first of next year will mark a new era in girl's athletics. The movement toward compulsory physical training has materialized, and gym work will be re- quired for a possible two years in the high school course of every girl. The proposed appropriation to be made will enable every girl to come in contact with honest sports- manship, acquire real friendship, and re- ceive the physical benefits that such a course offers. At Westport, gym work is of especial interest to any girl. Besides the ordinary class periods of physical training, there are the unusual benefits to be derived from the outside work in hockey, basketball, track, and tennis on practice days. The work is made even more interesting by inter-class contests planned by Miss Bell. The appropriations made for outdoor hockey work on the triangle on Gillham marks the growing interest in girls' gym work. The inter-scholastic tennis tourna- ment th-is Spring shows a development of even greater enthusiasm. And there is the prevalent hope that the girls will be allowed to enter such inter-scholastic events as basketball and track in the near future. Basketball In a fast inter-class contest in basket- ball, the Freshmen in the final game of the season ousted the Seniors from first place by the narrow margin of a 14 to 13 score. The speedy, little midgets of '20 had downed successively every other class of the league, and the fates destined that proud old '17 meet the same defeat. The season opened March 27 with a double header. The Seniors got the Juniors well started toward fourth rank in the series by an 11 to 4 victory over them. It was a slow game and the ball rarely passed out of center bounds. The Freshmen had an easy job in their 24 to 19 victory over the Sophs and followed it with a similar victory on April 3 over the Juniors, 26 to 11. The same day the Seniors won a close game from the Sophs, scoring 20 to 18. The-result of playing off the tie for third place between the Sophs and Juniors gave that position to the Sophs. The final contest between the Seniors and Freshmen for first place developed the best basketball of the year. The Mullins twins, forwards, ex-stars from Hyde Park, had developed the speediest passing in the league, and their clever teamwork was greatly strengthened by the centers, Helen Decker and Louise Putnam. Though they were the light-weights of the series, their quick passing baffled their experienced elders. Meldon Everett and Dot Matticks, the mainstays of the Senior aggregation, were delayed in entering the lineup until the last half, and their absence proved fa- tal. Boots Thomas and Ruth Marr dem- l l Girls' Basketball Squad onstrated real consistent playing as for- wards, but close guard work on both teams prevented heavy scoring. The game, tied except for the last few minutes of play, ended with a Freshmen triumph. Bernice Winburne recorded a goodly share of the Sophs' points throughout the season, and Lilly Larson, in accordance with her former rep, left every game be- fore the end of the first half for personal fouls. The games were well officiated by Miss Bellows of Poly and Captain Lib Tracy, and the cheerleaders had lots of pep and some noisy yells. The teams were chosen as in former years, by the election of class commission- ers, who made the final selection of the line-ups. The class squads elected their captains, and by almost unanimous vote, Helen Decker, Lena Banning, Marie Mc- Carthy, and Boots Thomas were elected. This year Miss Bell introduced various up-to-date rules to insure a speedier team- work. Special practice was given to open playing, the guard playing free from the forward. More extensive use was made of the dribble and pivot turn, and in practice, the teams played a two field game with the privilege of advance to the center line. The innovations were highly successful and insured even a more interesting and more closely contested series than in form- er years. Track The track meet held May 8 was the great- est success of the season in girls' athletics. It was the most enthusiastically supported contest of the year, and the results of the meet recorded some records tied and others totally smashed. Miss Bell directed the events, and Miss Bellows of Poly, Miss Kleeman, Miss Morrison, Miss Stewart, Mr. Harman, and Mr. Shouse officiated as judges. Ruth Baity was score keeper. Madge Lutz, a Soph, with a 4 feet 7 inch count, broke the Central record of 4 feet in the high jump, outclassing Meldon Everett by several inches. Ola Moon won a first for the Freshmen, breaking the I l l 5 I I J l 2 E i s F 2 51 9 . I ,A . 516.0 E. X ts Q WX t 2 ..

The Sophs have another record breaker in Ber- nice Winburne, who ran the 75 yard dash in 9 seconds. The Freshmen, scoring 6 firsts, a like number of seconds, and a few stragglers, won the meet with a total of 5215 points. The Sophs, who captured 7 firsts, totaled a final count of 4115 credits. The Seniors fell in third place with 2015 points, the Juniors last, with 1715. The meet was a contest for form and speed. Among the events for form was the work on the balance beams, won by Boots Thomas, the work on the travelling rings won by Margaret Kelly, a Soph, with a count of 83 rings, and the exercises on the bucks and on the rope swings. In the speed contests, the Sophs won both the class relay and the relay handi- capped by skipping. The Freshmen won the obstacle relay. Besides the Soph vic- tory in the high jump and dash, Marie Richardson won a first in the hurdles. Mel- don Everett won the 150 yard dash in ex- cellent form. Hockey The hockey season this year was delayed in its termination by the unfavorable weather last fall, necessitating the final games of the series to be played off this spring. Consequently, much interest was detracted from the inter-class contest. The Sophs distinguished themselves as hockey champions of '17, Captain Shuff's team won a decided victory over every team in the league and played a real classy game with the sticks. The Freshmen were forced into second place by a defeat from the Sophs last fall. The Freshmen showed the greatest representation on the field, and this early perseverance marks the se- cret of their later success in basketball and track. The Juniors, by a 4 to 0 defeat of the Seniors last fall, hold a meager third place, followed by the Seniors as trailers of the league. The numerous distractions of the Senior gym girls forced the Seniors to lose to the Freshmen by' default. The Juniors lost to the Freshmen by a similar failure to appear on the triangle. , , .--.-- .. ...-.,....--f-----.s ..,....... .

And, true to the saying that good things come in small packages, the real glory of '17 lies in the accomplishments of the various individual genii who compose that august assem- blage. Speaking of small packages reminds us of Flossie Kirkpatrick, Eddie Addison, and Leo Finkelstein, a trio of notorious Seniors, who, outside of Adelbert Baker, are the heftiest specimens of human ponderosity extant around these parts. Going to the other extreme, we boast, in the persons of Harry Bell, H. H. H. Turner, and George Weston, some altitudinous triplets who are considerably high up in their professions. Of the midget type, we have Edna Horst, Sidney Kaufman, and the twinsome Baers, regular Lilliputians. The Senior Class is well versed in the various arts. Helen Hofsess won the prize for the Herald cover, and Flora Kelly and Paul Gibson starred in the Musical Contest. Of the sixteen debaters, twelve were Seniors. Everywoman in the Christ- mas play was a Senior-while Nobody was a Junior. How lost the '18-ers will be next year with Everywoman gone and Nobody to lead 'emi As usual, Seniors have been the back- bone of Blue and Gold athletics. We had three first-team basketeers, a majority of the track men who went to Columbia and Lawrence, and both captains, Tracy and Cooke. We were represented in girls' ath- letics by some of Westport's: foremost stars, including Meldon Everett, Dorothy Matticks, Florence Randall, Ethel Shuffle- botham, Marian Barnes, Beulah Thomas, and Ruth Marr. The Class of Seventeen is a cosmopoli- tan collection. Indeed, upon looking over the names on its roster, one sees a com- plete syncopated sentimental short story in twenty-eight words: Miller-Spiller-Lake- Hands: Hart Pierce: Jewell-Bell-Tighe- Holmes-Carr. Good. Ball: Strong Wine: Owings: Barnes-Rigg-Walker: Wade Wal- ler Mudd: Young Love Parrish: Law- Proctor: Newman! Then, although we were on the damp end of the deal, we had considerable to do with the institution of Junior-Senior Field Day, which, since it was so successful this year, we hope will be made an annual affair. After indulging in much cogent cogita- tion upon the facts hereinbefore present- ed, even the most hopeless Junior must necessarily come to the conclusion that the shining example set by '17 is a star to which '18 may well hitch her wagon. -The Secretary. .

Our spirit of un- swerving loyalty and tireless energy has in itself been a veritable embodiment of the animation so well exemplified by the ac- complishments of the Gold and Blue. But to fully comprehend the true worth of the qualifications of the Junior class of '17, one must note its actual performances. We have participated in everything which has invited class competition, 'ten- nis, tug-of-war, basketball, debate, and track. Clarence Peterson was our sole rep- resentative on the tennis team, but in bas- ketball we possessed four quite brilliant stars, William Bowman, Dana Munsell, Joe Gottlieb, and Ralph Brigham. Many of the most capable followers of the cinder track were Juniors, among whom were George Chandler, Dana Munsell, Howard Esterle, Byron Shutz, Paul Jackson, Jack Kollmann, Hubert Parker, Byron Cart- wright, and Ernest Garth. In the literary line there were those fiery-tongued orators, Jack Kollmann, Hubert Parker, and Rob- ert Dickson of the boys' and Gladys Dan- ielson of the girls' debate team. Again, we did not lack representatives in dramatics, for a great many of the Christmas Play cast profess '18 to be their class. Is this not an excellent record for us, who still have another year in which to prove our worth? Boasting? Yes! But our pride is justified. Those of us who are gifted neither with physical strength nor mental activity were given an opportunity to display our loyalty by pulling or yelling for Old Eighteen in the tug-of-war against our worthy predecessors, the august Se- niors. They of the lordly mien emerged from the liquid with their ardor for con- quest a bit dampened. And the J uniors? Well, '18 floated and waved for seven days above the entrance to the school upon a hill so high and noble. The day of the liquidation was so fair and so foul a day, as the treacherous Macbeth was known to utter, fair for the Juniors and foul for the Seniors. Well, now we suppose you are convinced of our ability to become the best Senior class that ever pulled for Westport. So we look forward to our last year, a period which will be termed as progressive and which will be called an age of advance and prosperity for the Gold and Blue. -The Secretary.

Z ! W N MAGNETIC Engineers for years have sought a smooth How of power from motor to road. Their search has led from 4 cylinders to 12 in vain. For change-speed gears remained. However great the power, however un- interrupted the impulses of the engine- heavy clashing, jerking gears have inter- vened to break the flexibility. Now gears are overcome. The Owen Magnetic substitutes the resistless, elastic tenacity of magnetism for the steel-hard, rigidinterplay of gear-teeth. And it substitutes a little finger lever on the steering wheel for the awkward, heavy- working shifts of other times. So here, at last, is flexibility-and true control. A thousand speeds that flow into each other under the touch of your hand. An epoch-making achievement is compel- ling electricity to serve gas power. Trans- mission, starting, braking, lighting, all are provided by the same dependable magnetic unit. Moreox er, from all this comes great- er eiciency-more mileage for tires and gasoline-longer life tothe car. Coach makers have paralleled this tri- umph of science in antriumph of design. Not even foreign c'-rs have distinction, style and beauty whfch can more than compare. Bodies in stock and to order by great carriage buiiders, on chassis built and equipped by the Baker R . 8zL.

Some day you are going to finish school and make your way in the world. The savings bank itself is a school of thrift and economy. It will teach you practical lessons that will be very valuable when you later enter some business or pro- fessional career. I We know that it takes considerable money for young men and young women to have a good time, but every dollar laid away, drawing a regular interest rate, is going to help just that much when you become older. Most people who reach middle-age and are unsuccessful, admit that if they had started early in life, their lot would have been different. You can begin a savings account with us by depositing so small a sum as 31.00, and you may add to this from time to time-and you will find also that with a savings account started, you will find many ways of earning money. We want you to come around and talk it over with us. Very truly yours, WESTPORT AVENUE BANK, ' E-ay A By W. F.
