A MINE ROOM f COAL CUTTER School Wk have a school building of which we are all proud. Its beautiful outline against the gray sky and amidst the white snow as shown in this scene presents a lingering memory to the students and citizens of our little mining community. Ol’K campus is picturesque in its unique atmosphere of woodland. The tall walnut trees with their green foliage present an enchanting environment in the fall and summer, while in the winter time you would search the world over to find a more attractive landscape. On the north of the campus is a modern home recently constructed by the school board at a great expense. This house is the home of the principal. He is always near his work and can readily be reached at any time. Administration I c fie School cBoard 0WIXG to the important part which the School Hoard plays in the management of the W'estville High School, we believe that they are deserving of mention, in this publication of the book which deals with all things pertaining to the school. Most of the great responsibilities and problems of the school are brought before the School Board and we, the students, little realize what a number of things there are to do and the work they involve. At each meeting of the School Board, such problems as paying the school taxes, fixing the teachers’ salaries, hiring new teachers, building new additions to the school or improving it otherwise, are brought up. These are only a few of the duties of the School Board and the students should learn to appreciate the efforts of these men to improve and regulate the affairs of our school. The School Hoard this year is composed of the following members: Wil- liam Moyer. President; John Shimkus, Secretary; H. S. Ercanbrack, Victor Herman. Mike Kelly, Herbert Roberts, and C. E. Stevens.

To him, we V- report all troubles and events, lx th great and small, and his advice is sought in all of our activities, by both the pupils and the teachers. Someone is constantly coming in or going out, and visitors are always welcome. One item worthy of our notice is the system of having eight pupils from the commercial class in the office at different periods of the day for one full period each. In this manner the pupils gain the confidence and experience so necessary to the person who must seek work in later years. All losses are reported at the office, as well as any articles which have been found. Absences, schedules, etc., are taken care of and incidentally, here are devised all rules, which, however, we are glad to say are in no way detrimental to the welfare of the school and its pupils.

Pauf Twenty-five Senior Glass Siistory 7 HE present Senior class entered the Westville High School in September, 1924. The first officers elected were: Anna Balser, President; Helen Hickman, Vice President; Pete Perona. Secretary and Treasurer. Even as freshmen the boys took keen interest in athletics and Stanley Golcynski and Allan Elliott participated in many games. The girls’ basket ball team won the Interclass tournament. The following year was accompanied by the loss of several of our members who were, however, replaced by a few new ones. At the first class meeting the following officers were elected: John Vendelskas, President: George Meinart, Vice President, and Marjorie Buskirk, Secretary and Treasurer; Helen Czapski and John Vendelskas represented us in the Student Council. Several of our members were also in the Science Club. During our third year in school, we elected as our officers: Anna Tuvada. President; Vera Milewski, Vice President; and Gladys Boyd, Secretary and Treasurer. Anna Tuvada and John Vendelskas Student Council. In athletic activities Stanley Golcynski was chosen as the coming year’s football captain, while Allan Elliott, Joe Vanauskas, and Frank Razavich made their letters during that year. In December nominations for the Owl Society were held. The following members were elected: Gladys Boyd, Josephine Blass, Loretta Ber- nard, John Sharkey, Anna Tuvada, and John Vendelskas. The Junior play given that year was also a great success. During our Senior year, we elected as class officers the following pupils: John Vendelskas, President; Alpy Galinasusky, Vice President: Anna Tuvada, Secretary and Treasurer, Dan Kvetinskas and Anna Tuvada, represented us on the Student Council. Allan Elliott, Stanley Golcynski, Frank Razavich and many others were prominent in athletics. Members of the Senior Class can also be found in any club or society in school as well as on the honor roll. Contrary to the usual custom, that of giving a ball or dance, Seniors attended a theater party, chaperoned by Mr. Alison. The Senior play has not, as yet, been given but after such a favorable showing in other activities we are confident that it will be a success. The last year of school is drawing to a close. Perhaps for many of us it means the end of our school days. Yet though it is impossible for us to go back and live over those four short years in school, each in his heart has resolved to profit by his experiences and to face the world with a confident spirit and a determination to succeed.

Page Thirty Glass Cprophecy (A Play in One Act) Time—A dark night, February 29, 1938. Place—W. T. H. S. Journalism Room. Characters—Two “intellectual” hobos. (They graduated from Westville High.) l'irst Hobo (switching on a light)—“Jimeny Crickets! I knew I had been in this place before the minute I crawled through the window and fell all over that desk. Second Hobo (feigning grief)—“How sad!” (rumages about and finally picks up a pile of newspaper clippings). “Hm! That’s funny. I always have wondered what became of the class of ’28. Listen to this clipping. It says that Harry Pettigrew is now President of Vassar College.” First Hobo (rubbing sore knee)—V’assar? Ain’t that a womens’ college? Second Hobo—“Sure, Harry always wanted to dominate over the women. I guess that was his only chance. Here's one about Frank Cowles that says he has discovered a new and easy way to make “flaky” pie crust. His recipe calls for one cup of Ivory coap flakes to every cup of flour. Well, Frank always did want to be a chemist.” “This one is about Stella Rakausky.—Stella is now an expert pianist and came very near winning fame during one of her performances, except for the fact that she suddenly remembered that she had come away without finishing her dessert.” First Hobo—“Ha Ha, that's good. Well, Stella was always the only person besides us who could eat all the time and still keep thin.” Second Hobo—“I guess I’ll just read all of these so make yourself at home. This one about Irene Kelly says that after taking a course in “Making a Living” under Mr. Alison, Irene made use of her newly found knowledge and now owns one of the largest “Irish” potatoe farms in Sardine Patch. She won renown fame when she raised her largest potatoe, 10 feet in diameter and donated it to the Soldiers’ Home.” First Hobo—“Land sakes! Only an empty stomach could keep me from fainting at the sight of such a vegetable. Who’s next? Second Hobo—(continuing to read “Helen Gorz has long aspired t ‘ tread in the footsteps of Irene Castle and since her marriage to the multi-mil- f V lionaire, Mr. Well-To-Do, she has been considered one of the best dressed worn- Faye Thirty-one en south of Kellyville” (picks up another clipping) “Loretta Bernard is now a famous saleswoman. When last heard of she was working for the agency ot Bigger and Better Talking Machines.” She sells an apparatus which, when attached to a victrola will cause it to run for hours without stopping.” First Hobo (convulsed with laughter) “Come to think of it, I once kidded Loretta about becoming an auctioneer, I guess she took it to heart.” Second Hobo—“If you keep interrupting me I’ll be inclined to think that you’re practicing for that profession yourself. Here, listen to this. John Ven-delskas and his orchestra have fast risen to fame. When last heard of they were playing in Herrin, 111., owing to his numerous engagements he will not be able to appear in Westville earlier than 1999.” First Hobo—“Well! Well! I remember Zuppke. He and Bertha Sedlak were always such Latin sharks. By the way, isn’t there something about Bertha?” Second Hobo—“She’s the one that used to think so much. Yes. Here's a clipping that says she is a librarian and has also written a book on the Destruction of Bookworms.” This volume is written exclusively for high schools where students read dime novels in the assembly. Here’s one about Tony Gardzulis. Tony is the new editor of the Ladies Home Journal and Anna Tuvada is the business manager.” First Hobo—”1 always believed Tony was a woman hater but 1 guess it was all put on. Are there anymore?” Second Hobo—“This one is about Thomas Mitchell. It says that Thomas has overcome his bashfulness at last and is lecturing before numerous Women’s Clubs. His subject is Companionate Marriage to which he objects very strongly.” First Hobo—“That’s sure a surprise. See if you can find something about Joe Vanauskas. 1 always thought he’d succeed Rudolph Valentino in the movies.” Second Hobo— Let’s see—Joe Vanauskas owing to his charming personality has become a popular shoe salesman. H'm. That’s a long way from the movies. Here’s one about Helen Czapski. Helen owns a beauty salon where she helps fat women to retain their schoolgirl figures. The next clipping is about Emma Ferpotto and Berniece Stulginsky. The two girls are now with the famous detective agency “Lost and Found.” They spent several years solving the old mystery as to who killed Cock Robin and are now trying to discover why “every four out of five have pyhorrea.” First Hobo (searching his pockets)—“Talking about detectives, I wish those two were here to find out who swiped my last package of Life Savers.” Second Hobo (blushing quietly)—“You’d need life savers if a couple of detectives were here now. ( resumes reading). Leslie H'ible after gaining exclusive training staring at girls’ legs in the English class has landed a job as assistant to F'lo Ziegfeld.” Thiriv tw First Hobo: That’s fine. That’s one position I’d consider taking.” Second Hobo— I second the motion. Well, Stella Darzinikas is next. Stella always wanted to be an interior decorator and has secured a position as window-dresser with Kresge's. Amelia Gopshus is now in Chicago. She has taken great interest in Chicago’s gang wars and is lecturing on the necessity of ! eaee. When last heard of she was still alive.” First Hobo (with rapture)— Ah! A brave woman! But don’t let me interrupt you.” Second Hobo (ignoring the remark) “Russel Herman when not clerking in his father's store spends his time inventing new stunts. I le has recently thought of jumping from an aeroplane with an umbrella but has not, as yet. had time to try out his novel idea.” Second Hobo (to himself)—“Let’s hope not!” Second Hobo (picking up more clippings)—“Here is Gladys Boyd, our cheer leader. Gladys has succumbed to the lure of the movies. Her latest picture The Blond in the Bleachers’ is considered excellent entertainment for football fans on rainy days.” “Lucille Christenson always wanted to be a toe-dancer but she spends most of her time in a sanitarium. Her nervous condition is due either to much intensive study or her constant failures in her search for a man who is not fickle. “Josephine Blass has now entered into society. She reached the height of her ambitions to create a sensation when she appeared at an afternoon tea attired in an evening gown.” “Helen Koepke, contrary to all expectations has remained an old maid. Rumor has it that Helen was willing to marry on condition that she retain her f reedom.” Vera Milewski always expressed a desire to be private secretary to President Coolidge. but since he does not choose to run for that office again she has contented herself by attending all the public dances and inventing new steps. In her latest step the dancers were supposed to kick themselves in the back when turning corners. This step was not so successful when tried out because the dancers got their feet tangled up in the process. However, Vera is working on a new step with which she hopes to become famous.” “Allan Elliott inherited a farm from a rich uncle. He is now busy night and day trying to work off the mortgage. If he succeeds he intends to run for the office of sheriff.” F'irst Hobo “I remember that guy perfectly.” He’s the one that she the hounds on us when we trespassed through his field last week.” Second Hobo (scowls and resumes reading) Josephine Redulis has declined to follow family tradition (that of working in a bank) and still holds her old job as telephone operator. In this way she secures all the latest gossip. fr “Frank Razavich has at last turned professional. After endorsing several u. v : Pape Thirty-three advertisements for articles to which he attributed his athletic prowess, he has sufficient income to enable him to live without working.” “Dan Kvetinskas has landed a job as efficiency expert at the Westville High. He saves the school much money by insisting that the pupils chew toothpicks instead of lead pencils. He has other ideas too numerous to mention.” Last of all we have Albert Pocius. Albert always nourished a secret ambition to be a cowboy, but the west grew civilized before he grew up so he turned to the undertaker’s trade and has made quite a success of it.” Second Hobo (searching for more newspaper clippings) “Well, I guess that’s all. They’ve sure chosen some queer trades, but then being a tramp isn’t such a dignified position, either.” First Hobo (who has been asleep)—“Why not talk of something livelier than tramps and undertakers. Let’s eat.” Se v ’. 1 Hobo— My sentiments exactly.” (Both exit making for the cooking room) Page Thirty-four ‘'Juniors % JUNIORS Top Row Smith. Miller. Holcomb. Kelly. Slazas. Sharkev. F. Miller.

None of the members have shirked their studies, yet they have found time for many of the outside activities connected with our school. At the first meeting in 1925, the following members of the class were chosen as officers: Dan Kvetinskas, President; Mary Mackovic. Vice President; Charles Benedict, Secretary and Treasurer. Although several of our members were on the football squad. Charles Razavich was the only player who received a letter. In the basketball tournament our team won second place, while Albert Miller was given a position on the varsity. On January 18, 1926, forty more Freshmen enrolled, enlarging the total number of members in our class to nearly one hundred. Upon resuming our interrupted career in September, we met under the new title of Sophomores and elected the following members of our class as officers: John Sharkey. President; Frances Miller, Vice President; Vivian Symanski, Secretary and Treasurer. Emma Ferpotto was chosen to represent us in the Student Council. In our Sophomore year we were a bit more fortunate, for two of our boys made the football team and Albert Miller for the second time gained a berth on the basketball team, while several others were placed on the squad. Many of our members were to be found on the honor roll, while in other activities other students became prominent and displayed much talent.

In the course of the year two parties were given, one of these was a hard time affair. Both parties were a success and were enjoyed by all the students who came. When we met again in the following school year we found that our class had dwindled down to thirty students. However, what we lacked in number was made up by our determination to undertake the arduous tasks of a Junior Class and carry them out to the best of our ability. During our first meeting we elected James Kelly, President; Vivian Symanski, Secretary and Treasurer and Vivian was also elected to represent us in the Student Council. For their services in the season just finished, four Junior boys received letters in football, two were on the basketball team and a large number are expected to go out for track. Tony Lutchka, was elected Captain for the following football season, at the last annual football banquet. Three of the four cheer leaders are Juniors. This year, as in the preceding years, the Juniors gave their class play, “The Junior,” under the direction of Miss Gunnison. It proved to be quite a success. The money received from this play will be used to meet the expenses of the Junior and Senior banquet. Pape Thirty seven Top Row, Left to Riyht—Shcrpitis, Maxieku.

After a few weeks of school we elected the following class officers to represent us: Ruth Jessup, President; Ruby Moyer, Vice President; Secretary and Treasurer Peter Kriviskey. Ruth Jessup and Frank Jonelis represented us in the Student Council. In athletics we were never backward. During our Freshman year several of our boys made a splendid showing in football. The girls went out in large numbers to practice baseball, basketball, and volleyball. The Sophomore girls, also played in the basketball tournament and although they were defeated we expect much of them in the near future. Several of the Sophomores are in the orchestra, while a number of the girls have entered the Semi-Chorus. Of these many have taken part in the operetta and various other musical activities. Last semester several of our Freshmen were victorious in the public speaking contest. This year we are well represented in this contest and hope our entrants will come away with new honors. Several students are also meml ers of the honorary society of “Owls.” Speaking of the class as a whole we can say that we have made good in sports and in outside activities. Our social standing is recognized by the upperclassmen and we have scored heavy scholastically, what more could Ik asked of us? forty rf reshma Top Row, Left to Riijht—Mesach. Rubis, O’Brien.

To this number sixty-six who graduated from the different schools in this district in June were added making a total of one hundred and three. They were a very promising bunch, with a determination to make themselves heard from before the year was out. This they have proved, was no idle boast as three of their number won jitters and were on the first team in football, the three being William Dugas, Joe Lutcha and Pete Sungail. Six won monograms: Edward Mensavage, Jess Vilkanskis, Dominick Giacoma, John Aleknas, Martin Puskac, and Russel Xotar. Joan Yesunas, one of our number won the serious declamation in our literary society, Emerald, then won the school contest, and lastly won the district contest in which four schools took part. Seven have been selected from our class to be members of the orchestra. The girls also made a good showing on the baseball team while the number of names on the honor roll from the freshman class is all the testimony we need as to their scholarship. Soon after school opened they met and elected as their officers for the year: Joe Lutcha, President; Helen Ramsey, Vice President; John Benedict, Secretary and Treasurer; and Miss Blanche Knoblock, advisor. The first party of the year, a Halloween frolic on Oct. 14. was held in the High School with about seventy-five members of the class in attendance and Miss Knoblock as chaperone. The evening was spent in music, games, and dancing. Pane Forty-two NEW FRESHMEN First Row—Giaconic, Dudley, Falconio, Crosvich, Fleenor, Kwak.shas, Malishaku , Shukitis, Hamilton. ...

On January 20. 1928, a small class composed of thirty-five students were granted their eighth grade diplomas. On the following Monday morning these students were enrolled and initiated into our little High School family. For a few days thereafter, they were to be seen meandering around the hallways lost or striving in a feeble attempt to locate the history class room or perhaps the gymnasium. After a few weeks of bitter strife and struggle they were at last organized and settled in their new abode. Two of their boys. Ballard and Kippon, made the basketball team as “subs”. Some showed up good in a track uniform. In future years these boys will certainly uphold the banners of Westville High. The class has some wonderful musical talent concealed in its ranks. The orchestra jumped from fourteen members to twenty-five, the additional musicians being members of the incoming class. Leon Descamps, a violinist, won the favor of all the upper-classmen through his ability to make the violin talk. The class is small but in the time to come they will certainly be heard from. V Page Forty three SYMAXSKI VEXDELSKAS KELI.Y TUVADA KVETINSKAS KRAIXOCK JESSUP Dpie Student Gouncil VrjHE Student Council was first organized in 1924. Credit must be given to Mr. Guin for the formation of this society, as it is one of the best of our organizations. The members of this society promote and sponsor all ideas which are of benefit to the school. The president of each class automatically becomes a member. Each class also chooses a representative besides their president, the Senior Class being allowed two representatives. A student must have a good character, be an apt scholar, as well as a leader to become a member of this organization. For the past few years this representative student body has been making great strides in its work and has sponsored every affair in the school. Its members visit other schools and make reports to Mr. Guin and the student body. One of their main objects is to correct the faults of our school. They have charge of the Friday morning assembly programs and give matinee dances for the students, several times a semester. They also give and manage the Halloween and St. Patrick's parties which are given in the early part of the year. The Athletic Hoard of Control which manages and takes care of football and basketball games during the year, was organized by the Student Council. The Owl society was also formed by the student council. The roll is as follows: Seniors: John Vendelskas, President: Dan Kventinskas and Anna Tuvada. Juniors: James Kelly, President; Vivian Symanski.

The students who form this society are those who willingly offer their services to the school, not with the idea of being rewarded by it but because they consider it a pleasure to do something to benefit the school. There are many students in school who are constantly offering their services to benefit others, who never receive any encouragement or praise except by a few friends. To give these students more recognition, to create more competition among others and give them some incentive to look forward to has been the main object in creating this society. Everyone appreciates a reward for their services, especially those who work toward the betterment of the school and give others something of which to be proud. Ever since this society has been organized it has been the custom for the Student Council to elect six per cent of the student body in the fall election in December, and four per cent by the faculty during the spring election in April, this making ten per cent of the student body to be elected to this society an- nually. A luncheon is given each semester for the members of th Such luncheons are usually given by Mr. Guin. The domestic with the aid of their instructress. Miss Gunnison, have charge of for the luncheon. Only members of the society are invited. Page Forty seven Top Rote—Vendclsky. Editor; Sedlak. Christenson. Bernard, Holcomb, Benedict. Bottom Roto—SlulKinsky, Fcrpotto, Cowles, Gors, Balicka . (Janus Staff K. THOMAS, advisor of the annual staff, probably has for his motto, '-' L “Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today,” consequently this year’s annual staff found the dummy for the 1928 edition of the Janus all prepared, September 1, and ready for their helpful hands. Not a day was wasted and the whole staff began to work with such vigor as to cause a few doubtful persons to smile. Their goal was to put before the public the best edition of the Janus ever presented and to get their work sent to the press several months ahead of the usual time. The “ad-getters,” Loretta Bernard and Lucille Christenson showed enough business ability to do credit a salesman of some future hustling age. The art editors, Charles Benedict and Peter Kriviskey drew pictures from morning until night, and sometimes into the night,” so to speak. The snap-shot editor, Lucille Christenson designed and pasted pictures for hours while the typists, Bernice Stulginsky, Emma Ferpotto, and Helen Gorz banged away on their typewriters as fast as the Literary Editor, Bertha Sedlak could wield her pencil to furnish material for their busy fingers. Violet Holcomb, the sport editor, Margaret Baleikas, Joke and Calendar Editor and many others also joined in and contributed their talents. Last but not least, were John Vendelskv, the Editor-in-chief and Mr. Thomas who suj ervise l the work and stopped long enough to prod some poor, tired staff member who sought to steal a moment's rest. So after all the hurry and bustle, work and worry, we are at last in the position to place into your hands, for your inspection and approval, the fruits of ' ir labor.—The Janus.

In the year 1925, under the supervision of Mr. Neumann, the Westville High” won second place in Class V in the annual Newspaper and Annual Convention held at Urbana. In 192b it was considered for sweepstakes along with Robinson and in 1927 it received some distinguishment in its class. The platform of the paper is clean sportsmanship, good scholarship, and school spirit. A Journalism Club was founded by Mr. Neumann for the purpose of lettering and learning more about the newspaper. The club meets every two weeks under the charge of the Editor-in-Chief. At these meetings several staff members give reports on different subjects pertaining to the paper. At the close of the meeting Mr. Neumann criticizes the latest edition of the paper. Journalism Club Pins are given to students who have two years of newspaper work and attend all club meetings except three throughout the school year.

The paper is published twice each month during the school year. The first or front page contains news of all the different social activities and news of the school. Some of the news a person might learn from reading the front page of the “Westville High” is as follows: when different club meetings are held and what is done at these meetings, when plays have been given or are to be given, and what different classes in the school are doing. The second page contains the following things: names of the persons and their positions on the staff, the platform of the paper, editorials, which are written on such subjects as “Doing Little Things” and “Habits, the exchange, inquiring reporter’s article, which contains a question and below the answers given to it by several students and teachers in the school.

LV)he Science Qlub HE Science Club was organized several years ago by Mr. Thomas for the benefit of the members of his Science classes. At the beginning of each year the members meet and elect officers. The following officers were elected this year: Allan Elliott, president: Frank Kazavich, vice-president: Josephine Redulis, Secretary-treasurer. The club meets every two weeks and provides ample facilities for outside work. At each meeting several members give a discussion on some interesting topic in the field of science. It stimulates interest among the students and enables them to learn more than they could master in class discussions if he is taking biology he has an opportunity to learn something of chemistry. When all the reports are given refreshments are served and talented members furnish entertainment. Later in the evening a few games are played and so work and play are combined. The membership in the club has increased this year owing to a larger num- _ j -7 her of pupils who take science. Members of this club are entitled to wear which remain the same each year and are fashioned so as to resemble a skulU. and crossbones. Each year the members visit some est in their science work.

The plans called for a membership limited to eighteen people. The students interested in .his club and wishing to become members were asked to hand in their names About forty responded and try outs were held. The person wishing to belong to this club recited certain lines from selected poems and other things before three faculty members, who acted as judges. After careful study and much deliberation on the part of the judges the eighteen members were selected from the forty students who “tried out” for membership to this club. Much good has been derived from this club in its tirst year of existence. The members have received much needed training in speech, poise and grace. The members have learned to talk impressively and clear and have had their first stage appearance. Much credit must be given to Miss Gunnison who has introduced such a valuable organization, the Dramatic Club, to the school. Pifty-hvo lia.k Rott—Sydea. Fells. Brant, llolcomh, McArdle, Rattle.

This year’s additions are a saxophone, a sousaphone, and a trombone. The Orchestra is very popular and is often called upon to entertain at outside functions as well as those in school. Miss Mason deserves a lot of credit for its rapid advancement. Then there is the Boys’ Quartette which is formed early in September. The quartette was organized by Miss Mason two years ago, since then the custom has been repeated each year. The quartette this year is composd of the following boys: John Vendelskas. Thomas Williams, John Sharkey and Charles Benedict. They are very popular and the audience always insists upon being favored with encores wherever they sing.

The events take place on an old southern plantation during the colonial days. Pilot Farley and a three-year-old child are the only survivors of the ill-fated steamboat, Winona. The Pilot adopts the child. When Hose Farley rjrffgrows up to woman-hood, she is loved Cvff by Richard St. John, a young sugar P planter. s--JyN Simon Scudder also loves Rose. Re- vOocause she refuses his attentions he plots with Jake Martin, and Holly Simms, a shady lawyer from New Orleans, to claim that Rose is the daughter of an octoroon slave. Rose because of her doubtful parentage refuses to marry Richard. The conspirators forge a paper to back their claims, but Richard interferes and accuses Scudder of the falsity of the document. This leads to a duel between the two and Richard is wounded by Scudder who shoots before the signal is given. Rose and the Pilot’s guests hear the shooting. Just then Sheriff MacDougal and Marquis de la Tour arrive, the latter proving to be Rose’s grandfather. Scudder, Simms, and Martin are put under arrest and the Marquis consents to the marriage of Rose and Richard. There is also a pretty love affair running through the play between Richard’s sister. Martha, and Monty Gray from the North. There are also numerous comedy scenes between Old Ned and his wife. Judy, colored servants of the Pilot.

Never before was an audience offered such a number of laugh producers” so to speak, at one time. Besides the colored male characters there was a chorus of girls who sang and danced. The minstrel drew a large crowd both nights and it would be quite unfair to praise one member of the cast more than another since each did his part so well that it would be difficult to choose between them. Since the minstrel was given for the benefit of the annual the efforts of all who participate, are greatly appreciated, especially those who were not members of the annual staff.

The membership of this society was restricted to the Freshmen and after much contemplation the society was called the Emerald Literary Society. At the last meeting of this society the following officers were elected: President, Alvin Spries; Vice-President. Josephine Stulginski: Secretary and Treasurer, Ruth Gillison. Miss Knobloch was selected as adviser of this society and has since directed many successful programs. In the 1927 dramatic contest the Freshmen carried away the honors for the first time in many years. Margaret Kamas won the humorous speaking and Joan Yesunas won the declamatory honors. Much is expected of the Emeralds this year, for the Freshmen are fast showing that youth is no barrier when one possesses ability. The Philomathean Literary Society was organized in 1921 with Mr. Clinton File as adviser. The students who were chosen this year to act as officers are as follows: Christenson: Vice-President tinskas. Won by Emeralds First Place in I nteri.iterary Contest President. Lucille Millv Smith: Secretary and Treasurer, Dan Kve-Miss Jackson was chosen as the adviser of this society. So far the Philomatheans have not had very much success in winning the Inter-literary cup that is given each spring to the Literary Society which scores the highest number of points in the Inter-literary contest. This year the Philomatheans feel that their time has at last arrived and they are hoping to win the honor this year. The Philomatheans are always successful in presenting their programs. This year, however, they copped the climax and presented one of the best programs ever given by a literary society in the Westville High. The I. I’ . I.’s have elected the following officers to represent them this year: President. Albert Miller; Vice-President. Marvin Herman; Secretary and Treasurer, Tony Morris. Mr. Thomas was appointed adviser. The I. B. I.’s have always presented the best programs and were seldom outdone by the other societies. In the Inter-literary contest they won the New Inter-literary cup for three successive years, which entitled them to the honor of retaining it permanently. Last year the Emeralds won the contest, but the I. B. I’s are not daunted by this stroke of ill luck and hope to rebuild the reputation they had so firmly established and will try to secure new honors during the coming years. I age Fifty-seven 25he junior Cpla ij proceeds were used for OoHE Junior Class presented their play entitled f Q “The Junior” in the school auditorium December 16, with success. The events of the play occur at the Lakeville University. Kenneth Bayles played the role of Ned Moore. Ned “joshed” by the Seniors, decided to get even with them and starts a rumor that the University is to admit a co-ed. He dresses as a co-ed. The Seniors, led by Demosthenes or James Kelly, decide to ride the new co-ed out of town on a rail, but they come across Janet Hale (played by Frances Miller), who is a niece of Thomas Highfield, who intended to endow a sum of money to the college, lligh-field or Charles Benedict, becomes angry at the insult to his niece and' withdraws his offer. John Sharkey played the part of “Prexy,” who decides to expel the Seniors. However, Moore gets the Seniors out of the scrape and wins Janet. The play was coached by Miss Gunnison and the the Junior-Senior Banquet. c5he Senior Lplaij O HE Senior Play Hurry, Hurry, Hurry” will be presented at the High t O School Auditorium March 16, 1928.

The May Fete was entitled Peter Pan” and the incidents involve mainly the two chief characters, Peter Pan and Wendy. The incidents are represented by dances which are as follows: Dance of Parents; Peter Pan and Tinker Bell; Peter Pan, Wendy—John Michael; Host Boys, Lost Boys—John Michael; Wolves; Lost Boys—John Michael. After these dances came the procession, after which the maid-of-honor, Bertha Sed-lak, crowned the May Queen, Mona Kelly. This was followed by the Dance of the Fairies, the Fairv Queen's Dance and the May Pole Dance, bv the Senior Girls. This year a new custom was introduced, that of presenting the May Queen with a silver loving cup. After the pageant, the girls’ coach. Miss Moranville. presented letters to all the girls who had taken part in athletic games. This last event closed one of the finest and most successful pageants ever staged by the Girls’ Athletic Association.

This organi-( Q zation is composed of four students, three elected by the Student Council and one by the “W” Association. This year Josephine Blass, Roy McArdle and Dan Kvetinskas were elected by the Student Council and Glen Thomas by the “W” Association. The members met, a few days later, in Principal Guin’s office and elected Dan Kvetinskas as chairman of the board. The purpose of this board is to take care of the school’s athletic activities. They see that each football and basket ball game at home is properly advertised, sell tickets during the home games, keep an account of the gate receipts and expenditures of each game and post a report of the same so that the student body may see the results for themselves. They pay off the officials of the game and pay the visiting high school their share of the gate receipts or the amount previously agreed upon. An appreciation of the duties of this organization ought to be developed by all, as it is a helpful organization to the school. Pane Sixty-two football « TOP ROW: From left to right: Obrien. Timko.

Gfootfall Season to 1928 c)()ACH MILLER came to Westville early in the fall, three years ago, from the University of Illinois, being a letter man at Knox College and finishing his work at the U. of I. Mr. Miller is a great man. well liked by all the boys and bv every one that knows him. Mr. Miller is a man that has the quality of a real coach. Under his leadership Westville High played some of the l est teams in Illinois, enjoying one of the most successful seasons in years. This year a new coach was added to the coaching staff. Mr. Sollars. a former Millikin University star, handled the second string material and assisted Mr. Miller. The schedule Westville played this year in football was the hardest ever attempted by any team in this part of the state. Mr. Miller was fortunate in having five letter men back and from these he molded the team into shape. The greatest achievements of the season was the game with our old rivals. Hoopeston and Georgetown. In these games Westville showed the prowess and cunningness of versatile well trained veterans. The prospects for a good team in ’28 and ’29 are bright. The following letter men will be available: T. Lutchka. J. Lutchka, Dugas, Lucas, Miller, Mazai-kas, Jonelis, Harr. Gilman.

At the first meeting Allan Elliott was elected President, Stanley Golcynski Vice-President, and Joe Yanauskas Secretary and Treasurer. For a boy’s name to be mentioned in the “W” Association is a sure sign that he is a good athlete and has staying power, for only boys who are better than the average in athletics and who stay out for sport the whole season are awarded these letters. The principles on which the Association is based are good and clean sportsmanship. The W” Association has the responsibility of picking one of the Athletic Board of Control members and it also has charge of the selection of the letters that are to be awarded for that year. The Association gives a push to school activities and is behind any activity that is for the good of the school. We hope that the “W” Associations in the future will keep as good and as clean a record in sportsmanship as the members who now compose it.

This is his third and last year. FRANK (Mattress) JONELIS Mattress was a sub-guard. He was a hard hitter and always full of pep. He has two years ahead of him.

This is his second and last year. WILLIAM (Dugie) DUGAS Dugie, another Freshman, who made a first team. He played left guard. He was fast and mean. Watch his smoke, as he has three more years. JESSE (Jess) MOYER Center, is a man of brains. It takes a man like Jess to handle such a play on the team. This is Jess’s last year. Page Sixty-six GILBERT (Bln?grass) BARR Playing his second year, he gave the fans many thrills by his spectacular tackling. ALLAN (Al) ELLIOTT He was one of the most consistent players on the team. His best games were against St. Mary’s and Hoopeston. He will be missed next fall. RUSSEL (Rusty) HERMAN Rusty developed into a dependable halfback. His speed caused opposing teams grief. He was a good defensive man. JOHN (Johnson) SHARKEY John played a great game at halfback. His aggressiveness won him a regular position. Much is expected of him in the future. JOE (Josie) MAZIEKAS Playing his first year, he developed into a great safety man. His tight will make him a valuable man. TONY (Whitic) LUTCHKA (Captain-Elect) He played tackle, center, and end.

Payc Sixty-seven MILFORD GOES UNDER ATTACK OF WESTVILLE. SCORE 25 TO 0 Westville played under a handicap, for one of their best men, Elliott, was missing from the tackle position on account of the death of his father the night previous. Only a small crowd attended the game, the main part being composed of Westville fans, who had made the trip to Milford to see at first hand the quality of the team which Westville had. Also, guard of the regulars. Vanauskas, was only able to play two quarters on account of injury to his ankle. Sungail, a Freshman, played in Elliott’s position and did great work, while Dugas took Vanauskas’ position. Mr. Miller had almost all the second team in the game when the final whistle blew. All of the men who made the trip with the exception of one received an opportunity to show what they could do under fire. Razavich and Lutehka were the outstanding stars of Westville, while Captain Golcynski played a good game at left end. The stars for Milford were Captain Pancake and Clark. WESTVILLE DEFEATS ROSS PETTY’S ELEVEN BEFORE SMALL CROWD Westville tigers defeated Ross Petty’s Watseka eleven for their second win of the season by a score of 6 to 0. The game was slow because of a muddy field. A crowd, of between 400 and 500 people, stood or sat out in the rain to see the game. There were blocked punts, penalties, and incomplete passes because of the condition of the field. The only touchdown of the game was made by Joe Lutehka, Westville fullback. in the middle of the first quarter. VERMILION GROVE 6—WESTVILLE 33 The fourth game of Westville’s schedule was with Vermilion Grove Academy. The game was filled with many thrills as Westville tore through Vermilion Academy team, who stoutly fought to hold back the Westville’s “Four Horse- Payc Sixty eiuht men.” Some of our men were bruised and hurt in this game and in the last quarter Vermilion Grove scored a touchdown on our second string. SIDELL FALLS BEFORE WESTV1LLE Sidell swooped down on Westville Armistice Day, expecting to force West-ville to mark up a defeat. But when Westville started making and smashing plunges and wide end runs through the line, Sidell was forced back yard by yard. Soon Westville carried the ball across the line for a lost touchdown. This gave the boys more pep. Coming back the second half, they literally walked with the ball down the field. The final score ended 33 to 0. HOOPESTON 0—WESTVILLE 0 The largest crowd ever to see a football game in Westville was at the Westville- Hoopeston game. As Hoopeston was forced to journey to Westville this year and was the strongest team that Westville expected to meet this season, the game attracted a crowd. The highly touted Hoopeston bunch fought us last year to the end of the game, beating us by a score of 7 to 0, but this year Westville showed her supremacy by out-fighting and out-playing them. The game showed many of West-ville’s weak points as much fumbling was done. The first half was a line-plunging game and as Westville neared their goal. Razavich made a line plunge, and gained seven yards, nearing our goal, but by fumbling the ball the goal was never reached, the game ending to a 0 to 0 tie. ST. MARY’S 0—WESTVILLE 15 On October 22, St. Mary’s came down from Bloomington to give Westville a few lessons on how to play football, but when they left they were convinced that they had a few lessons to learn themselves. St. Mary’s team was aggressive but could not hold back Westville's Granges,” who continually made great gains, while Westville’s defensive was the best shown that season. The score at the end of the first half was Westville 12, Bloomington 0. In the last half Westville came back as strong as ever, and I’ete Lucas, one of Westville’s second team men, received a Bloomington punt on his own 35-yard line and made his way with good interference that was given him for 65 yards to a touchdown. The game ended with Westville easily victorious. JASONVILLE 6—WESTVILLE 13 Miller’s tigers downed the Jasonville Hoosiers in a hard-fought game, which took place on a slippery field before a large crowd. Westville, because of its pep, got a flying start and before the first quarter was over a touchdown was chalked up for her. From then on till the end of the game Tasonville held her own. The biggest thrill of the afternoon was when Jasonville’s quarterback received a punt on his own 10-yard line, and after eluding two Westville tacklers he raced the remaining distance of 90 yards to the goal line for Jasonville’s only touchdown of the game. Westville outplayed Jasonville in the first quarter but both teams battled on an even basis in the second quarter and the half ended with the ball in Westville’s position on the 50-vard line. During the next half Jasonville again tried many of her passes but only completed a few. Then both teams kept punting and as Jasonville punted to Westville. Mazeikas carried the ball seven yards to the one-yard line and on the third down Razavich carried the ball across the goal line for Westville’s second touchdown. Westville punted to Jasonville’s 20-yard line and the game ended in Westville’s favor, 13 to 6. ATTICA 0—WESTVILLE 19 Westville’s defeat of Attica, Indiana, on the out-of-town Attica athletic field, November 4, was on account of the greater superior endurance of the Tiger team. The Attica squad of extremely fancy but ferocious football huskies swept down the field, smashing and breaking the tough Westville line but failed in chalking up a single touchdown, while Westville scored 19 points. Attica’s home town faithful had done everything within his power to show that he was for Attica, but he did nothing when it came to Razavich and Mazie-kas' brilliant performance. Several hundred spectators witnessed the battle on the gridiron. GEORGETOWN 0—WESTVILLE 0 Westville, with one of its best teams in years, went down to Georgetown on Thanksgiving day to play football for the first time in four years. For years rivalry between the two teams had been keen. Georgetown, not having registered a win over Westville for the past seven years, were keyed to the highest pitch. One of the largest crowds of the season attended the game. The first half proved to lx- scoreless with Westville having constant jtosses-sion of the ball and threatening to score, but each time bad breaks or penalties prevented any markers. In the second part of the second half the ball changed possession but neither side could gain heavily. The fourth quarter proved even more thrilling. Westville during the last few minutes of play had the ball an inch and a half from the goal line with four downs to go, but were unable to put it over due to Georgetown’s defense. The game ended with the ball in Westville’s possession and it was the first down. The final score was Georgetown 0. Westville 0. It was a wild and howling throng that returned to Westville that night. We had played our last game for the 1927-28 season and we had won all but two games. These two games were tied with Hoopeston and with Georgetown. We did not expect this last game to end in a tie. We knew it would be a close game. Everybody in our part of the country knew it would be exciting, so they came from far and wide to see the contest but went home disappointed, for neither side had decisively won. I age Seventy one l7dlie football Banquet OollE fifth annual football banquet of the Westville High School was given IQ Thursday, December 15, 1927, in the high school gymnasium, which was very nicely decorated with orange and black crepe paper, which are the school's colors.

WESTVILLE 25—OAKWOOI) 20 The first game of the 1927-28 season was played on our home floor with Oakwood as our opponents. Although our team had not been practicing as long as Oakwood. yet we were able to hand them the small end of a 25-to-20 score. Razavich and Miller played a wonderful game, showing wonderful early form. WESTVILLE 27—GEORGETOWN 20 Georgetown’s low ceiling spoiled many shots for Miller's cagers in our next game. Razavich had Georgetown scared ail the way through the game. He dribbled, pivoted, shot, and passed the ball to perfection piling up a nice lead, making it safe going all through the game. WESTVILLE 57—SIDELL 11 This was a set-up for us, even our second team got hot and made quite a few points. This gave gave Miller a chance to find out what has been termed as first team reserves. WESTVILLE SPLITS WITH VERMILION GROVE Two games were played with the Vermilion Grove Academy crew from the South. They do not have a large school, but their team this year was exceptionally good and in the first game Westville was victorious by a one-point score but in the return game they took the lead and won by four points after a terrific struggle. % I Pane Seventy-five Vermilion Qountu tournament FEBRUARY 2, 3, ANI) 4 AT HOOPESTON First Place Vermilion County Tournament When the whistle blew tor the 1928 county tournament the Orange and Black team was one of the strong contenders to start. Westville took it easy by playing their second string while opposing Sidell, so as to be ready for the Hoopeston crew. Hoopeston, however, got bumped off by the strong Oakwood quintet, who, three hours later, gave Westville the scare of their lives. They were badly crippled after their game with Hoopeston and fell before the fierce Westville attack. The next opposition was Alvin, who was the dark horse of the tournament. The team was big and fast and our boys had their hands full in turning them back with the short end of a 16-14 score. The only thing now that stood between Westville and the County Championship was the meeting of the fast and furious Potomac lads, who in the afternoon had rushed Catlin off their feet and escaped with a win by a narrow margin. Things were beginning to look brighter but the boys were tired from the long grind and were beginning to show signs of fatigue. Then came the crucial hour when the two teams met. The game was on. At the quarter Westville stood 7 to Potomac’s 5. The half was even closer and the third quarter left them still in a deadlock, and in the last quarter, with two minutes to go, a wonderful brand of stalling the ball kept it in our possession with a one-point advantage, crowning Westville for the first time champions of Vermilion County. Sidell Invitational tournament Making a good start but finishing with a poor ending, Westville got second place in the Sidell Invitational Tournament. Westville played Sidell the first game and it was very nearly lost, being completed out of form and missing the loop time after time. When the game ended it was 25 to 13. Georgetown was the opponent on the program and Westville, showing a complete reversal of form, swamped Georgetown 24 to 8, thereby entering the final game with Oakwood, this being the fourth time Westville played against Oakwood. The game was fast and steady and at the half Westville was seven points ahead of Oakwood, and at the third quarter Westville was still holding the lead, but by Oakwood’s last few minutes to go they scored two points ahead of Westville and by using Westville’s system at stalling put Oakwood at the head and were crowned champions. For three years Westville has been champions but this year the tables were turned and dumped the dope bucket. Two more games remain on our schedule, which are to be played with Hoopeston and Loda. After that, Westville will try to defend her title as district champions at Danville on March 9 and 10.

Page seventy nine SENIOR TEAM—WINNERS OF THE INTER-CLASS TOl RNAMENT (jiris' Base Ball HE first part of the year in Girls’ Athletics was devoted to baseball. A tournament was played at the end of October with the combined team of the Juniors and Seniors remaining victors by defeating the Sophomores 21 to 17, Monday, October 24, and defeating the Freshmen 14 to 7, Wednesday, October 26. The game between the Juniors, Seniors, and Sophomores opened with Jun-iors-Seniors. The Sophomores fought bravely to get ahead but the Juniors-Seniors team continued to remain in the lead during all the game. In the sixth inning the Juniors-Seniors made as high as six runs. Anna Tuvada and Stella Melecosky brought in many of the points for the Juniors-Seniors, while Helen Misunas and Bernice Survillo starred for the Sophomores. The game between the Juniors-Seniors and the Freshmen was much harder than that of the Sophomore game. Even though the Juniors-Seniors made3-0 in the first inning the game was not easily won. The Freshmen came into the lead and continued to stay ahead until the eighth inning. The Juniors-Seniors entered the game with such zeal in the eighth inning that they made nine innings to their four. In this way the Juniors-Seniors won the game with a score of 4 to 7. Anna Tuvada and Agnes Nausid did good work for the Junior-Seniors and Irma Mae Berry and Stella Morris gained praise for the Freshmen. Miss Moran-ville, Athletic Instructress, umpired both games. Page Eighty c(Drack 77he 1927 77rack Reason Xp OACH MILLER and his band of thin clads enjoyed a successful and pros-1 . perous season. Westville copped their own invitational meet. They also grabbed enough points to win the Annual Vermilion County Track and Field Meet, and placed second in the relay race. A few weeks later Miller took a picked few to Watseka to the District Track Meet. There was only one fortunate man out of the few that Miller took to Watseka. This was Wilbur Jessup, who won first in the discus and also placed third in the shot put. lie later went to the state meet, where he didn’t fare so well. Bill Uporsky, the Westville flash, was one of the pluckiest little track men we have ever had. Bill was a speedy sprinter and he was also a good broad jumper. Johnny Walters was also a good man to have on the track team. He always put out his best in practice and in meets. Joe Vanauskas always got his share of the points in any meet he entered. He was also a faithful man to appear for practice. Alpy Galinausky was the dark horse of the season. Nobody knew “Logg” could run till he came stepping out in a pair of trunks and passed everything up on the track. Jess Moyer and the two Lutchka brothers were the three middle distance runners. They were three of the grittiest men that ever stepped out on the cinder path to compete for the Orange and Black. Although Joe Mazeikas wasn't as fast as some of the rest, he made them step to get a place on the Westville Track Team. Last but not least. Albert Miller deserves a little mention for bis faithful ability to progress in the pole vault. The 1927 team stepped faster and got further than any which Westville has produced in many a year. Four new track trophies were aded during the season and many new track records were established. Many inexperienced men were given some development in track tactics. This training is of great value in keeping the boys fit for other branches of athletics. -'«! • Hifjhty two Elliott, (ialinauiku, Moyer. Vanaunkaii. Miller. Razavich. Mazeika . Mmnavirh. COACH MILLER c?9 rack 1928 9HE outlook tor a track team this year is very promising. We have with us this year the following aspirants: Allan Elliott is a good all-round man. but his specialties are the weights. He should take a few places in the discuss and javelin throws this year. Alpy Galinausky, with his ability and staying power, ought to be a man that could collect some points for the good of the school. Jess Moyer is our best long-distance runner. Last year he was unable to place in any of the meets because of a bad knee. He is counted on to make quite a few points this year. Joe Yanauskas, a three-year man. should be our best point collector. His specialties are the 440-yard and 100-yard dashes. He took first place in the county in the 440-yard dash last year. Albert Miller is a good middle distance runner. He ought to show his heels to quite a few competitors this year. Frank Razavich, a three-year letter man. is expected to cap the high jump at the county meet this year. He also should take a place in the shot put. Joe Mazeikas is another good dash man. He specializes in the 440-yard dash and 220-yard dash. He should make quite a few points for the team this year. Edward Mensavage is a Freshman and little is known of his ability: but if his grade school record can be relied upon he should go great in the middle dis tance runs. Among other men who should make good this year are: Dugas, Balia Rayles. T. Lutchka, J. Lutchka. and Sungail. s -ty These men will compose the Westville Track Team. When Westville is inert- u,, tioned in connection with a track team the opposing teams settle down to real ? training. , Page Eighty-three rj 1 Inter-Glass 3Y[eet HE Juniors upset the dope bucket in the Inter-Class Track meet by defeating the haughty and dignified Seniors 57 to 50. The meet was held on the High School Track on April 22, 1927. The Seniors, with such stars as Jessup, Blakeney, Walters, Uporsky and Stanevich, expected to cap first place, but the Juniors developed a few dark horses who stepped out on the track and took the meet away from the surprised Seniors. The Sophomores took third place with 20 points, while the Freshmen took undisputed last place with the grand total of nine points. Vanauskas, a Junior, was the big factor in the copping of the meet by the Juniors. He was the high point man of the meet, netting a total of 18 points. He copped three first places and one second place. He took first place in the 100-vard dash, 220-yard dash, 440-yard dash, and took second in the 50-yard dash, Uporskv of the Seniors nosing him out of the first place. The officials of the meet were: Judges—Guin, Miller, Appanitis, Howard. Starter—Delaney. Timer—Lucas. Clerk of Course—Sloan. The 1928 Inter-Class track meet is scheduled for the first of May. There is going to be some keen competition among ourselves as each class has about the same number of athletes and several inter-class records will be broken. The Seniors are doped to win the meet and if they do it, it will be a walk-away for the Senior class, as they have swept the inter-class II. 1?. championship all ready.

A student at Coney Island was eating a hot dog when he came upon a string used originally to bind the wein-ies together. He threw the hot dog down disgustingly and said: I don't mind eating dogs but when it comes to eating the collar too—By Heck I quit! Come one. come seven.” Paje Ninety-two The Spirit of the Miners Wise Cracks Where would you go to find the parts when the day breaks ? When night falls is anybody hurt? 1 he faculty is a group of men and women who are hired to help the Seniors run the school. The bell that rings at the end of a class period is the Liberty Bell. If you want to communicate with anyone across the assembly, don’t whisper, just holler, or whistle and the teacher will think it is a train whistling or some one dynamiting coal, and then you won’t get a ninth hour slip.

Attendant: They’re all under the beds examining the springs. Little Brother—I don't see anv feathers. First—(disgusted) That’s a picked team. A Fish Story F’irst: How did you catch those big fish ? Second: I hit them over the head with a club. I’irst: OW! How could you see them ? Second: Well, you see I bought a plug of chewing tobacco and threw it in the lake and when the fish began to bite they had to come up to spit— then I cracked them over the head.

Carrying Out the Master’s Ideas Thomas: (to Zuppke, Editor of the Annual) I wish you’d carry out these ideas. Ten minutes later Zuppke was seen going out of the science room with the ideas in a waste basket. Not Unlawful. Lady: Aren’t you ashamed to beg? Miner (out of work) Yes, but it’s against the law to steal. A Good Idea. Father: Son, you should never strike anyone smaller than yourself. Son: I wish you’d tell Miss Jack-son that.

Vicc Preirident he yllumni A S each graduating class leaves, it is an almost inevitable fact that its mem-bers must be scattered about the different parts of the country, probably never to meet again. The friends we make during our school days are the ones whom we wish to keep in touch with and whom we remember the longest. For this reason many attempts have been made by the Alumni to organize, but owing to the scarcity of members, most of these attempts have proved futile. The first real attempt made to form an Alumni Society was in 1917. Later in January 1926 a meeting was held at the Brooks Point school-house but only a few of the Alumni attended. At a later date another meeting was held in the High school building. The work was now taken up in earnest. A constitution was adopted and the following members were elected as officers: Hazel Harris, Treasurer; Edward Delaney, Secretary; Elizabeth Emery, Vice President. The first social affair given by the Alumni was an invitational dance held at K. of P. hall. The High School seniors were guests of the Alumni at the dance. During the fall of that year, the Alumni gave a “Home Coming Dance.” This was attended by many out of town Alumni, Westville High School, and Attica High School, football teams. Although the number of Alumni total several hundred it is difficult for the members to take part in the society owing to the fact that they are scattered about the country. This year the Alumni are thinking of giving a Senior and Alumni banquet. However, none of the plans have been carried out thus far.

And that is one of the reasons why we pay so much attention to the quality of the goods we sell. It is so easy to skimp on a lining, or substitute inferior leather in the inner sole of a shoe. But then we would not be running an honest business, and it would gradually crumble into ruins. Selling honest merchandise at a fair price is more than an ideal with us. It is our “insurance policy” against failure.
