Q gi, 5 w A EE at , I e INTRODUCING WILLIE SPEAK-UP, that man about school, that super-announcer with the traveling mike, who brings you the events as they happen. He's been at every school activity. Who knows? He may have been sitting next to you, that eaves- dropping Woodruff booster who's always around. He cheers the loudest, listens most attentively, and, best of all, he brings it to you in such a lively and exciting manner that you are once more able to see happenings as they occur. So here's Willie, who'11 take you through the book. 5 if m. i :Ill E! M N, Gude frien. We couldna ask mair. Loyal to the blue and gray of Woodruff as well as the Macdon- ald plaid, she is our good friend and we could not ask for more. We know Miss Macdonald as a person who is always ready to help and advise. She continually strives for the advancement of the indi- vidual, and it is with sincerest respect and deepest gratitude that we dedicate to her Volume II of the Talisman. Miss Emma G. Macdonald Dean of Girls 7 Mrs. Anna E. Woodruff MODERN EDUCATION continually demands progress. The man for whom our school was named, former Mayor E. N. Woodruff, and his daughter Miss Mary Woodruff, in memory of wife and mother, have generously seen lit to keep Woodruff among the leaders. They have presented to us the radio sound system on which we are basing our book. It has proven very useful this past year, serving in many ways. We have been able to hear the President's speech delivered at the beginning of Congress. For boosting school projects it has been almost invaluable in creating interest. We marvel at how we got along without it last year and marvel even more at the general improvement it has promoted. x.

Lunch hour is always pleasant, but with this new feature it was made even better. Each morning home room groups hear an- nouncements of all the important events of the day. By means of the radio system everyone throughout the building is certain to hear of all the school's activities. 9 Dancing to recorded music is a popular pas- time, and the students of Woodruff High have found it particularly en- joyable with the music turned in the gymnas- ium where they can dance with school pals.

'cNever put off till tomorrow, what can be done today. Each class daily progresses, working and learning. At times the road seems hard, and the difficulties too num- erous, but the reward comes with graduation and the diploma, which signifies all the lessons learned over a four year period. E 5 1 , J Left to right: Harold Gunther, Treasurerg Paul Pitsch, Secretaryg Lyle DeKalb, Vice-Presidentg Jim Kromphardt, President. Senior Class June and departure come all too soon for seniors. Probably the busi- est year of the four in which they've worked and played, it will leave fond memories with all of them. Not hav- ing to bother about registration for next year, they're twice as busy think- ing about all the things that go with commencement. Even before the first semester had ended they became conscious that their high school days were almost over when they selected their class ring. It had a beautiful little design which could be set in a choice of sev- eral different stones. Several months before the closing days they once more met on serious business, this time to decide on their class colors and flower, at which time they selected American beauty red and powder blue for their colors and the American Beauty Rose as their class Hower. Having been leaders in all school activities, they'll probably find it hard when they step out into the business world or enter college as freshmen next fall. However, I know they'll make good and always be worthy of being called Woodruff High gradu- ates and will certainly go on in bring- ing honors to Woodruff as well as themselves. EVA ABSHER . . .

Every time I meet one, he is hurrying to a class meeting to help decide some important question like the date for the Junior Prom. Essays, book reports, art and dra- matic contests, fair material, and a thousand other projects have taken a great deal of time but have put the juniors high in the record of 1939 achievements. Juniors have been active in practi- cally every branch of both boys' and girls, athletics, boosting Woodruff in teams as well as in the bleachers. ... 1 IAN d - se Ill' J 'ff E7 h-,Ki '- 'g!::5L'a. 5 -S-gf, Left to right: Stockwell, Picl, Lawton, Scott I saw quite a few in the Opera, Va- rieties, All-School Play, and at all the social events of the year. A number of them worked on the Observer and Talisman staffs. The class was very ably represented in Student Council by Jim Kellerstrass, George Neal, and Bob Partridge. And what fun they had at the Jun- ior Prom this year! It was held again in the Grand Ballroom of the Pere Marquette Hotel with Chuck Cart- wright and his orchestra. Kenneth Stockwell and Mary Jane Doebler led the Grand March and made the Prom one of the gayest events of the season. Two of the members of this class won nation-wide recognition for Woodruff this year. Vivian Custer won a national poster contest, and Jim Bob Kellerstrass went to Wash- ington, D. C., as a representative of the Junior Red Cross Society. 42 Left to right: Jean Binder, Presi- dent, Dolores Hollister, Treasurer, Pat Drysdale, Secretary, Elliott Young, Vice-President. Sophomore Class Peels of laughter, shuffling, and rushing identify the sophomores. Anticipating new adventure, they bound through the halls, hiding their inexperience by shouting lustily at the passersby. They use their vocal ability to ad- vantage when they display their wild and wooley feelings at the basketball games and help the team attain the heights of success. Blundering, yet loyal and enthusi- astic, they advance as a group through their busy year and look for- ward to applying their acquired ex- perience to the betterment of the jun- ior class. Freshman Class It was easy, the first day of school, to recognize the freshman class. They wandered aimlessly about looking for the elevator to the eighth floor, with the encouragement of the fun-making upper-classmen. I felt sorry for them, as it all must have been so confusing -trying to find when and where to go, and why. The freshmen may be small, but they make themselves heard in the eighty-piece Woodruff High School band and can out-talk any of the long-winded seniors. They are working with their class sponsors to bring honor and success to this school by hard work, loyalty, and good sportsmanship.

Extra- curricular activities offered at Woodruff are eagerly and enthu- siastically backed by the students who like a change from their studies.

More Honor to Them Since this year's book went to press before new members were elected, it is necessary to run senior members who were elected last year as juniors. There are four requirements of ad- mission to this society. They are scholarship, leadership, character, service. Members are elected by the faculty and are taken into the organ- ization at a very impressive assembly. Letters are sent to the parents of the candidates who are asked to keep the knowledge of their election from them. Then the thrill comes when the list is read and each new member is called to the stage. The four require- ments, scholarship, leadership, char- acter, and service are explained and all of the members receive a rose. Membership in the society is the highest honor the school bestows on its students, so to those who have achieved membership, keep up the excellent work. To the underclassmen, your chance will come so keep on working, not only with this particular goal, but valuing more the love of learning, pleasure in knowing you have taken your share of the responsibilities, the peace of a clear consciousness. and willingness to serve, thinking not of the reward, but the joy of doing.

' Student Government Student government, assemblies social hours, magazine campaigns, conventions, book exchange, banquet -what will I find them doing next? Third hour in Room 213 is an active one as Mr. Carlin, adviser, and Larry Kerker, president, discuss with the members the many Council ac- tivities that are on the year's sched- ule. Student government of the corri- dors requires a corps of one hundred prefects, supervised by nine captains. This is an important activity of the Council and one that requires a great deal of time. 7 I doubt if there were fifty families in Peoria that were not solicited for Crowell publications during the mag- azine campaign in the fall. As a re- sult of the drive, Woodruff students were able to enjoy eight excellent Lyceum assemblies. Everything from galoshes to note- books has been taken care of by the lost and found committee. Further service has been given in the Council book exchange held during the first of each semester. A number of students have taken advantage of the opportunity to take dancing lessons and have practiced the new steps at the Council social hours. Another important project was the student directory, compiled by Coun- cil members. In Charge of Lost and Found: Lyle DeKalb, Paul Pitsch.

Red After seeing and hearing many of the accomplishments of the Junior Red Cross, I have fully decided that they maintain the high standards of their motto To Serve. This year the Chapter sponsored the Christmas seal sale, distribution of baskets of food to the needy on Christmas and Thanksgiving, and they made tray favors for the Vet- erans' Hospital. Some time ago I was startled when Cross Giving first aid:Neal, C. Wells, M. Wells, Wetzler. Selling candy for Red Cross fund: B. Stringham, Howell, Miss MacDonald, Autry. Preparing basket for needy family: Goll, Winberg, Hen- dryx, Coe. I walked into room 114, to see a stu- dent wrapped in bandages. In my excitement I ran to the supposed pa- tient, and to my amazement I was told I was visiting a Red Cross First Aid Class, in which the members were learning to be of aid to their school and community in case of accident. The organization has also done many other notable deeds assisted by the capable leader, Miss Emma Mac- donald. Understanding Promotes Peace Spanish students at Woodruff are certainly doing their part to further the purpose of the Pan American Lea- gue, judging from the busy schedule of its fifty-two charter members. It has developed an understanding of the culture of the Americas. The evening of October 12 was an enjoyable one for the members of Manual and Woodruff Pan American Clubs. A dinner was held in our cafe- teria in celebration of El Dia de la Raza, the Day of the Race, which is observed by the Mexican people to celebrate their descent from the Span- ish people. In December our members held a joint fiesta with Manual at the latter school, presenting a program of Span- ish songs and a play. On April 6 the Woodruff League staged a colorful Spanish carnival in assembly, featuring Spanish customs. The last meeting was a Mexican Hesta, with songs, games, and dances. I have learned much about the cul- ture of the Spanish speaking countries from my attendance at the Pan Amer- ican activities. Miss Florence Step- zinski, advisor, and her League are to be congratulated upon the progress of this new club. PAN AMERICAN Top Row: Mowry, De Ment, Lucas, Kellerstrass, Anthony, Abel.

The Girl Reserves have a varied program to follow to carry out their purpose, t'To Find and give the bestf' Ilve discovered that they have a great deal of fun finding it, too, as the year's activities prove. The best in friendship and fun was shared at a roller skating party and a potluck supper at the Y. I'll never forget the afternoon I wandered into the Woodruff home ec kitchen while the girls were having a taffy pull. I joined in the fun and was rewarded with my share of delicious taffy. You should have seen the Girl Re- serves the afternoon Mr. Durham took them on a tour of the woodshop. He explained the purposes of the var- ious machines and made it so inter- esting that even the sophomores were quiet. I ate more than one taffy apple sold by Girl Reserves at football games, but didn't know until yester- day that the profits were used to send delegates to the district convention at Danville. They took part in the city initiation and candle lighting service at the Y.M.C.A. during the first semester. I especially e n j 0 y e d the inter-club Christmas Vespers held at the Central Christian Church, in which twenty- five of the Woodruff girls took an active part. The last time that I looked in on them they were making bracelets and discussing their progress in learning the much prized Girl Reserve rings. From my contacts with these girls I'm certain that with the help of their adviser Miss Laura Hedstrom they are learning to live their Girl Reserve slogan: To face life squarely?

Be Prepared Doing work in ten different fields, the Girl Scouts is a club full of inter- est and variety. Some of their activi- ties consist of out-of-door work and sports, home-making, crafts, study of nature, health, safety, literature, mu- sic, and dramatics. On May first they completed the second class work. Many of the girls will spend this summer at Camp Whip-Poor-Will, the Girl Scout Camp. As I walked into the library sev- eral days ago, some miniature stages attracted my attention. And I was told the Girl Scouts sponsored this exhibit. The purpose of the club is to make the girls live better and mix together in activities. They have been holding very benehcial meetings every week and having numerous social events under the direction of Mrs. Lottmann, with Mrs. Irving Jackson as the assistant leader.

Ready to Serve- Another of Woodruff's active or- ganizations, the Senior Hi-Y, has helped make a name for Woodruff as Well as for themselves. Every time I get a chance I drop in on one of their interesting meetings, which are held every second Thursday at 1' J Y. xi 1 the Y. M. C. A. The club is made up J, Willinqly Always of senior and junior boys, interested in better living and clean fun. Thirteen boys had the opportun- ity of attending the Older Boys' Con- ference this year, where there were boys from all parts of the state of Illi- nois. The boys entered basketball com- petition at the Y. M. C. A. and came through with flying colors. Their well-balanced team gained enough victories to receive the cup in the senior division. This cup goes to the school, to be placed in the trophy case. Although this year has not been as active as usual, the boys have en- joyed their work and have success- fully accomplished their undertakings. As Mr. Ray Wolf is the faculty ad- viser, it isn't hard to understand Why they have such good times. 60 Steady Workers for the Best If you can fight with your con- science and lose, you're a winner, read the sign which met my eyes one spring afternoon as I was making elaborate plans to skip tenth hour. That sign spoiled a perfectly good tennis game, but I'm still grateful to the Junior Hi-Y boys for placing it where I couldn't miss it. I've noticed that they have a reputation around school for high standards in every- thing they do. Their basketball team made a name for itself in the city I-Ii-Y tour- nament. Further interest in basket- ball was showed when a Woodruff Hi-Y delegation took a basket of fruit to Ted Panish at the hospital. Elliot Young, president of the or- ganization, was district representative to the Illinois Boys' Work Council that met at Joliet last summer. He was elected Junior Vice-President of the State group. Several interesting speakers further added to the interest in Hi-Y activi- ties this year. Henry Triebel told of his adventures in South Africa while supervising a road gang. Chief of Police Kamins informed the group one evening of modern methods of crime prevention. Ted Panish and Bob Theus gave an interesting ac- count of their trip to California with the Bradley team. Mr. Roy Gummerson, adviser, has been an interested follower of all Junior Hi-Y activities during the year. Left-Basketball team-Top Row: Delgado, Schilling, Huber. Second Row: Arons, Young.

Although the or- ganization is one of the newest in the school, they have about thirty mem- bers, and are busily making plans for their future meetings. These gather- ings are held every two weeks. Rather than tell about their accom- plishments, because of the age of the club it is necessary to tell of their plans for the future. Made up of stu- dents who have scientific interests, they are planning to make field trips, and in the course of their meetings to cover all branches of science. Thus far they have had an illus- trated lecture on plastics by Melvin Miller and an interesting talk on birds by Miss White. In the next meeting Mr. Shepherd talked on the different types of oxidation, and John Stolp gave a report on Wohler, an organic chemist. With this kind of a start, it isn't hard to see that more and more stu- dents will take an interest in its ac- tivities, which are so ably managed by Mr. Shepherd, Miss White, and Mr. Hall. The club members are the sort of people that I would trust to give me the H20 and not the H2SO4g so more power to them in their quest for scien- tilic knowledge, these explorers into the worlds that so many of us miss.

The F uture's Enriched by Snaps Today I'm certainly glad the camera club was formed, for it made it possible for the TALISMAN staff to get pictures of many of the clubs and organizations as you might see them in activity. Usually two or three of them would take the same picture, and the person whose picture turned out the best was rewarded by seeing it in the TALIS- MAN. I've seen them often taking candid shots of the faculty and students. Perhaps you were one of them. I'll never forget the time one of them got me as I spilled and broke a bottle of Coco-Cola all over the floor of the cafeteria. However, they made up for this Cmisdemeanor?j by taking a snap of me with my best girl. Seriously, the camera club learns a great deal under Miss Florence Court- right, their adviser, who is busy teach- ing them how to take, develop, and print pictures. They have the use of the school's dark room and one should always take care not to burst in on them and ruin some important pic- ture. The club was formed about the middle of the second semester and is fast becoming one of the finest, most worthwhile clubs at Woodruff.

THEY RANK HIGH IN MUSIC, Our instrumental department has progressed by leaps and bounds this year, bringing honor and recognition to our school, both in the city and in the state. Life, enthusiasm and entertainment were added to the football and bas- ketball games by the music of our band. At every performance they wore the new uniforms, which added greatly to their appearance. The orchestra furnished musical in- terludes for all the plays and gave a concert at the dedication of the Wood- Mr. Forrest Woodman, Director 64 ruff Memorial, the broadcasting sys- tem. This year a new group has been formed, the second band. Those be- longing to the organization receive valuable training before entering the Hrst band. Being active in contests this year, the department brought many honors to our school, which were made pos- sible by having a competent and faithful director, Mr. Forrest Wood- man. The band ranked first division in the district contest and second di- vision in the state. Several ensembles and soloists also ranked high in con- tests.

Marion Langan, cornet, and Dee Shepherd, saxophone, received first division in the district. Those who gained second division were: George Delaney, Huteg Dean Delaney, cornet, Jack Graham, trombone, and Maurice Kahn, Hute. The Flute quartette consisting of George Delaney, Leo Gorenz, Mau- rice Kahn, and Geraldine Neal, won First division in both district and state. The clarinet quartette including Winifred Nelson, Earl Alford, Dick Isaacson, and Carolyn Burklund, ob- tained second division in the district.

Pinafore Delights Audience Murmurs of delight ripple through the audience as the curtains open on a scene on deck the H.M.S. Pinafore, the setting for Woodruff High School's first opera. All are eager to hear the chorus of 200, directed by Miss Julia Beoletto, assisted by Miss Erma Emerson at the organ, and by Miss Ruth Kappeler at the piano. Little Buttercup comes on board to interview Dick Deadeye, the vil- lain. Here comes the handsome hero, Ralph Rackstraw, dejected because his sweetheart Josephine cannot marry a common sailor. Say, is everybody melancholy? Look at Captain Corcoran, sad be- cau.se his daughter Josephine is indif- ferent to Sir Joseph Porter, K.B.C. And now we see the lordly Sir Joseph with all of his relatives. Now Ralph declares his love for Josephine, and she rejects him. Is that a pistol in his hand? Somebody stop him! Josephine rushes to his side, knocks the pistol from his hand, and confesses that she loves him. We are kept in a constant state of suspense until Little Buttercup re- veals the fact that Ralph Rackstraw is really a man of high degree, and Sir Joseph, of lowly birth. The curtain closes on another suc- cessful Woodruff musical production. The leads in tonight's performance were: Sir Joseph Porter, Ed Porter- held, Captain Corcoran, Aaron Al- ford Jr., Ralph Rackstraw, Ben Bar- ron, Dick Deadeye, Jerry Camper, Boatswain, Don Briggs, Boatswain's Mate, Don Gates, Tom Tucker, Bob Kidder, Another Seaman, Carl Kent, Josephine, Mary Jane Doebler, Hebe, Betty Jane Gable, Little Buttercup, Betty Beger, First Lord's Sisters, his Cousins, his Aunts, Chorus, dramatic directors, Miss Alberta Leistritz and Miss Maria Crowley.

A CAPPELLA MEMBERS STRIVE FOR This year the vocal department had a Very busy and interesting program under the competent direction of our new choral instructor, Miss Julia Beoletto. Miss Julia Beoletto Director Miss Ruth Kappeler assists in the department as director of the fresh- man chorus. Miss Erma Emerson is always present at her customary place at the piano or organ. As early as the second week in September I heard strange sounds is- suing from 102-ma, me, me, mo, mu. Miss Beoletto informed me that they were the vocalize given each day to singers. After hearing the beauti- ful tone quality of the chorus when they sang various programs, I realize the value of such vocal exercises. Gilbert and SulliVan's UH. M. S. Pinaforew was the first large attempt made by the musical groups this year. Top Row: Farabee, Brown, Hoffman, Kent, Arendell, Gates, Wood, McDonough, Hutch- eson, Neal.

SUPERIOR INTONATION AND DICTION It was selected because the works of Gilbert and Sullivan are being well received throughout the country by music lovers. NH. M. S. Pinafore proved to be a very popular musical production. This year the a cappella chorus sang in a Cantata with Peoria Central and Peoria Manual for a Christmas program. They also s a n g over W. M. B. D., at the Baptist and Meth- odist Churches, at Teachers' Insti- tute, and at a vesper service in West- minster Presbyterian Church. The girls' ensemble provided music for the Mothers' Club at the Jefferson Hotel and for the Union Congregational Church. They climaxed the year by giving a Spring Festival in which all the musical groups participated. . my -Tig. alll?

Thrills, Chills, Excitement, Lauqhs Watching this mystery drama, Ghost of the Air, from the orchestra pit is quite a thrilling event. The scene is in the reception room of radio station KUX of which Thomas Wat- son is president. The lights go outg a shot is fired. Who was killed? Who fired the shot? The lights are on again, and Gor- don Mowbray is lying prostrate be- fore the microphone. Madame Zinia has prophesied previously that some- thing dreadful will happen. Bing Bellamy, a crooner, has a revolver in his hand, and his fiancee, Lucille LeRoy is hysterical. Everyone's curiosity is aroused to the nth degree. Jane Jackson, the secretary of the studio, fears that suspicion will be cast upon her be- cause she mailed Gordon a package containing perfume. Betty Mac, a radio star, appears rather guilty because she and Gordon have broken their engagement and she has renounced her love for him. Aunty Baird is delighted when Jasper Holmes, the detective, with the help of his assistant Mary Malone, solves the mystery by discovering that Fred Denny has committed the crime by injecting a deadly East Indian poison into the microphone. The cur- tain is now closing on one of the most successful senior plays given at Wood- ruff High School, under the capable direction of Miss Bertha Berman. All-School Play There is nothing any more enter- taining than watching a young girl at- tempting to influence the affairs of her family. Such is the case in the Adorable Age which is being ably presented tonight in the all-school play, directed by Mr. Hall. Mary Gay's life-long ambition has been the attainment of a father, at fifteen, she begins to see the possibil- ity of her dream becoming realized, but it only strikes terror into her heart when she finds her mother has chosen the wrong man! With the aid of her own ingenuity a rather meager knowl- edge of amagnetisml' of which she is making a study, she attempts to right the situation by training her own choice, Uncle Jim, so that he will be the successful candidate. The complications which arise from her discovery that Grant York is only attentive to her mother to fur- ther his own business schemes, and Uncle Jim's clumsy attempts to fol- low Mary Gay's instructions make up the plot of the story. Magnetism seems about to fail when her enthusiastic rehearsals with Uncle jim are mistaken by Bert Parn- ham, her own youthful romance, for an affection for someone other than herself and by her mother's anger when she discovers Mary Gay's med- dling. When all that she seems to have gained are a broken heart and a punctured romance, besides a very much unwanted father, Mrs. Colby herself saves the situation by her ex- pose of York whose every move she has used to wake Jim into speaking his mind and heart.

On With the Show! The Stage Is Set Here we are, standing behind stage, taking a peek at our stage crew, di- rected by Mr. Waugh, Mr. Armitage, and Mr. Durham. Being faithful to their duties, they contribute much to the success of Woodruff's productions. The house lights are dimmed by Bob Robinson, who is manager of the crew, and operates the switchboard, giving the beautiful lighting effects seen in our school productions. The curtain is drawn by Jack Phil- lips, whose job is manning the cur- tains. As the characters step on the stage, they are followed by a bright beam. Tracing its source, we find the spotlight in the projection booth op- erated by Dick Orr. The first act over, we hear and see the property man, Clarence Kehl. His job is changing the scenery and seeing that the sets are properly arranged. One oustanding and beautiful set was the ship, H.M.S. Pinafore, which is pictured below.

Honors Won This year Woodruff has been hon- ored by having many students win- ning recognition in contests of scholar- ship, art and speech. The Dental Society sponsored a contest for the art students. Many dental posters were submitted from all the states. We are very proud to say that two of our art students won places in the National contest. Bon- nie Custer received lirst place in the Junior Division and Frank Katus received third in the Senior Divison. Our speech department has also given honor to our school. Several contestants ranked high in contests. Maxine Dennis received first place in the oratory at the Progress Club. As a result of this, Woodruff received a beautiful cup. She and Bernice Greve participated in the local and district contests and rated high in each one, which gave them the opportunity of going to the state. Bernard Norbusch and Ruth Koo- ken obtained scholarships to Bradley by receiving highest in a competitive examination. Bill Crawford received a scholarship to Bradley Summer school by submitting the best poster. I unior Prom The Junior Prom, one of the most eventful days of the year of '39, was held at the Pere Marquette Ballroom on May 5. The room was beautifully decorated, and the many colors worn by the girls greatly glorified the color scheme. Kenny Stockwell led the grand march with his queen, Miss Mary Jane Doebler. Beautiful smooth mu- sic was provided by Charlie Cartright and his twelve piece band. The Prom's great success was made possible through the efforts of Mr. Colgan, Miss Leistritz, the chairman and co-chairmen with their faithful committees.

Our Iournalists and Writers The reward for outstanding service on a school publication comes with membership to Quill and Scroll, an International Honorary Society for High School Journalists. Members are elected in either their junior or senior year and must be in the upper third of their class. Three members of this year's staffs were elected last year, Con- stance Frazier and Allen Upton, the co-editors of the Observer, and Phyllis Anne Springer, editor of the Talis- man. Four new members of the Observer staff have gained admittance to this organization. They include Dorothea Stringham, Editorial Writer, Lois Kerker, Typist, Tom Bennett, Copy Editor, and Joan Kelly, Associate Editor. The Talisman staffis membership in Quill and Scroll has greatly in- creased. Those who have been ac- cepted into the society include, Mary Winberg, Activity Editor, Mary Jane Taylor, Senior Editor, Maxine Den- nis, Editor of the Personal Index, Carlene Upchurch, Art Editor, Sara- belle Turner, Art Editor and Feature Editor, LeRoy Benson, Photography Editor, Bill Crawford, Circulation Manager, and Eva Picl, assistant to the circulation manager.

The first one is the Conceiving. Allen Upton, Constance Frazier, Do- rothea Stringham, and Charles Bell have as their duty the problem of selecting suitable news and feature stories. Not until these four have se- cured adviser R. O. Burt's permission can further plans be made for that issue. T When the Conceiving angle has been marked off the list, Creating steps right in. Don Parmelee, humor Walt Corrie, Anna Mae Tyrell, and Jean Binder, reporters: Lois Kerker, Eola Olmsted, and Dorothy Schroe- der, typists, then begin their duties. No matter what one is working on, there is always plenty of Correcting to be done. Each time before the paper is issued, Tom B e n n e t t, Georgie Cantwell, Lyle Roszell, Shir- ley Coe, and Mike Pollott spend many hours to get the galley proofs in good shape, using correct spelling of names, dates and places. And after the correcting has been finished by the capable ones men- tioned, the job of Completing the paper must be handled by Joan Kelly, Harold Plack, James Clarkson, and Allen Upton. They give many free hours of their time to the print shops, devoting the time to making head- lines and crossline decks. Not to be forgotten is the business staff, who take care of the Collect- ing end. These people are under the direction of Mr. Hoeflin and Harold Anderson, business manager. They are assisted by Bob Meints, LaVon Hazzard, and Audrey Pitch. 78 editor, Len Fosdick, sports writer, Standing: Meints, Mr. Hoeflin, Hazzard. Seated: Pitsch, Anderson.

They Made the Book My memories of the Talisman workers include vivid ones of the edi- torial staff, under the direction of Miss Gladys Hedstrom, and the busi- ness staff, supervised by Mr. Roy Gummerson. I see Phyllis Anne Springer, editor- in-chief, working on the theme and the make-up of the udummyf' Work- ing with her is Mary Winberg, ac- tivities editor. In charge of the senior section is Mary Jane Taylor. Close behind her are her assistants, Martha Herget, and Evelyn Winkler, typist. I also see Shirley Opdycke, Lenora Selburg, and their faculty section: and Maxine Dennis with her personal index. Who could forget Marjorie Wotton, Barbara Easter, and Marilyn Wilson's class pages? Don Cravens, Bob Rodgers, and the Camera Club, directed by Miss Florence Courtright, took snapshots. The feature section was written by Sarabelle Turner, Evelyn Stringham, and Virginia Budahn. Charles Bell and Dick Gresham were sports editors. Photographs were scheduled and supervised by Leroy Benson and Thomas Autry. The year's memories also reveal Miss Shepherdson with Carlcne Up- church and Sarabelle Turner and their division pages, with Don Win- slow drawing me. Bernice Greve also contributed art and writing in her calendar. Other art assistants were Ralph Rodgers, Helen Kucavik, and Marjorie Wotton. Don McDonough, business man- ager, was in charge of the ad solicitors, Earl Alford, Clarence Hayes, Leo Gorenz, Maurice Kahn, Norma Mee- han, F r a n c e s Ringness, Sidney Schwartz, and Elliott Young. The business staff would not be complete without the subscription manager, Bill Crawford, and his as- sistants Eva Picl, Roberta Drury, La Von Hazzard, and Audrey Pitsch. Standing: Gorenz, Schwartz, Alford Young Seated: Hayes, Ringness, Meehan, Kahn All Work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

LANDIS MR. RIRIE MR WOLF Coach Teams and Keep Them Going Thomas Correll and his assistants have established an excellent record for Woodruff in its second year of ex- istance. He participated in college football, basketball, baseball and track at Bradley Institute which gave him an excellent background for com- petitive coaching. Tommy came up this year with a well-balanced bas- ketball team which worked its way to the state tournament. Raymond Wolf is the able assistant of Mr. Correll in football, basketball, and baseball. He was also a very good athlete at Bradley during his college days. Since golf is considered one of the major sports at Woodruff now, the fact must not be forgotten that the team in its six years of existence has always won more than they have lost. Harry Landis is the capable coach who again had a team that downed Bloomington. Bowling is a popular sport at Woodruff, and under faculty director Clem Colgan the boys are really in the thick of the fight for supremacy of the keglers in Peoria prep play. The track team under the super- vision of youthful Roy Gummerson is certainly to be watched. Roy ran the long distances while in college and made a name for himself. He is also coaching a new sport at Wood- ruff, cross country. The toughest little coach, Merle Ririe, really built up a football team from underclassmen. To prove it, they tied for city championship this year. Top Row: Cotton, Manager, Mr. Wolf, Assistant Coachg Swayne, Pesch, Boatman, Part- ridge, Gresham, Picl, Alexander, C.

Peoria Central furnished the com- petition and downed them very handily, winning 31 to 9. The best the Blues could do was to advance the ball to the Maroons' five yard line. SEPTEMBER 30 . . . Meeting the Lewistown 'KBattle Axes at Woodruff field, the Corrells again bowed, this time 7-0. The Corrells started a rally that ended on the two yard strip, before the gun ended 'the fray. OCTOBER 7 . . . Using an aerial attack that completely baffled the Blues, Peoria Manual made them bow once more, this time to the tune of 20-0. The Orange held the upper hand throughout the game. OCTOBER 14 . . . Facing the hard-hitting Toulon football team, the Blues found new life and managed to hold them to a 19-19 deadlock. Although they led at the half 19-O, after Chuck Ford was injured, they completely fell to pieces. 82 OCTOBER 21 . . . In their first appearance away from home, Woodruff drop- ped another game. They were beaten out 12-0 by the Farmington Farmers. Coach Correll used mostly green talent this game as an experiment. The Corrells scored in the last period on a pass to Bob Kent to Karl Kent, but it was called back because one of the Blues was off side. OCTOBER 28 . . . This time the Blues hit the highways, going to Galva for a night fray. Although outweighing the Galva crew, the Corrells lacked the drive, but did manage to eke out a 14-14 tie with the wild cats. The game proved to be a thriller all the way through. NOVEMBER 3 . . . Meeting Havana in a night tilt, the Corrells soundly trounced them 19-0. The Blues relied mainly on man power. Fosdick, Ford, and Partridge each counted markers. The fine runs of Don Alexander featured the fray. NOVEMBER 14 . . . Meeting a hated rival on the cross-river field proved most disastrous to the Blue team, as they bowed 33 to 0. The big Red team completely bowled our team over. Elwood i'Duke Reynolds proved to be the whole show for Woodruff with his fine defensive play. 83 CHARLES FORD, Quarterback. Chuck proved to be the sensation of the Blues all year. Although playing the last four games with his hand in a cast, he was the best blocker on the team, and made the all-city team with great ease. EUGENE DUBOIS, Tackle. He was a regular for two years having gained enough experience in his sophomore year. He is a hard worker, a good blocker and always the one who pepped up the rest when the going was toughest. CARL KENT, End. As co-captain of the team Carl proved to be an inspiring leader. He had played regular for three years. He made a great defensive end due to his hard tackling. DONALD ALEXANDER, Halfback. He was one of the fastest players that ever made a Woodruff football team. He was a lad who carries his knees high and got out and went. Only a junior, we expect great things of him next year. BOB CASSELL, End. Bob played in all but the last three games this year and although only a sopho- more proved himself good enough to be a regular end. He is a good pass catcher, a hard tackler and always hard to take out on end around plays. LEONARD FOSDICK, Halfback. One of the fastest men on the squad. Len proved to be an able halfback. He specialized in end around plays being very shifty. A senior, he will be sorely missed next year. WILLIAM GARDNER, Tackle. Bill played a clean hard game of tackle when he teamed up with Rey- nolds to make part of a strong Woodruff line. He should be a great tackle in '39. RICHARD GRESHAM, Guard. Besides being a cage star Dick reported for football this fall and be- came a valuable asset to the Corrells. Although of light build, he played the line and stopped many an opposing ball carrier. JOHN HUNT, Guard. John proved a valuable un- derstudy to Reynolds, and played some great games. He could also really punt a football and was depended upon to give a good performance. ARTHUR JAMES, Fullback. Injuries held Art back practically all year. He finally graduated to the back- field where he had plenty of drive and proved to be quite a punter. Too bad he was a senior. ROBERT PARTRIDGE, Halfback. Bob stood out the latter part of the season as a great prospect for next year. During this period he showed himself to be an excellent broken field runner. WILLIAM PICL, Center. Although only a junior, Bill has been regular pivot man for two years. His accurate passes to the ball carrier made him a valu- able varsity center. ELWOOD REYNOLDS, Guard. Elwood is one of those jolly amiable fellows liked by everyone. He played in 1936 as a regular when a sophomore. He played his position well and helped bolster the team morale. NATHAN SCHWARTZ, End. Brother of two great athletes at Manual, Nate came to Woodruff as a junior and played end on the varsity all year. Hels an ex- cellent pass receiver who will be back next year. DAN SHAVER, Guard. Dan was a regular in his senior year, having gained enough experience in his junior year to make him a dependable tackler and an excellent blocker. He was a consistent threat to all opponents he met. WILLIAM SMITH, Tackle. His enthusiasm and abil- ity for good play made up for his lack of size. Smitty'l substituted the entire season as a tackle. Rough and tumble he will be back for another great season next fall. EVERETT STARK, Guard. He's a strong sturdy fellow who was in his glory backing up the line. Seeing action occasionally throughout the year, Ev will be a very valuable man returning next year. lu Top Row: Mr. Ririe, Coach, Fay, Kanzlarich, Franks, DeMent, Button, Coleman Kleppe Kent, Cox, Buckingham, Emser, Manager.

Getting off to a good start by defeating Manual 14 to 0 they next humiliated a strong Canton team 21 to 0. In their next start against Central the boys fought to a 0-0 tie. Traveling to Pekin the boys were handed their first and only setback of the season. Woodruff tied for the city cham- pionship with Central this year. The personnel of the team were as a whole, large well built fellows. Merle Ririe, as coach, really bore down on the lads and made them hustle. The boys will fill the shoes of the seniors who graduated this June. VARSITY Woodruff ........ 0 Woodruff .,.. . . . 0 Woodruff ....,... 0 Woodruff ........ 19 Woodruff ........

On to State For the first time in a number of years the North Side cage fans had a team to shout about, perhaps the greatest in Tommy Correll's thirteen years of coaching. They went to the State tournament after losing three of their men at the end of the first semester. Those lost were Chuck Left to Right: Senti, Hawley, Ford. Ford, Chuck Hawley, and john Senti. The team proved to be a smooth working machine that failed to click only six times during the year. The Big Three of Larry Kerker, Lyle De- Kalb, and Dick Gresham proved to be the Blues' mainstays all year. It was DeKalb's long, last second bucket that enabled the Blues to go to their first state tourney. The Corrells started off on a four game winning streak, dumping El Paso, Galesburg, Normal, and Ver- mont in rapid order. In their fifth game of the year facing Dick Baxter's Manual HCom- etsl' the Blues were soundly trounced 46-27. They next traveled to Pekin and were again downed, this time by Pekin 27-22 in a rough and tumble affair. Finally, they started their win- ning ways again and were not defeat- ed for six weeks, winning nine games in a row before their streak was snapped. They downed the Alumni 31-29 in an overtime, when Gresham sunk a beautiful long side shot. Then Central, Spalding, Lacon, Toulon, East Peoria, Pekin, Lexington, and Central were all defeated. But all good things must come to an end, and the Spalding Irish saw to this. After battling for 32 minutes, the Irish eked out a last minute 35-32 win. The Blues then closed their regular playing season with four wins and one loss-the loss coming from Manual 29-27, while Mason City, Green Val- ley, East Peoria, and Lamphier of Springfield all proved to be Blue victims. DE KAI-B GRESHAM KERKER They entered the Regional Tourn- ament held in their own gym and copped runner-up-honors. Opening up against Eureka they downed the Greenmen 47-15. Their next foe was the rugged Roanoke Five and eked out a 37-35 victory when most of the Blue regulars went out of the game on fouls. In the championship battle the Blues were upset by the Central Ma- roons, 33-32, this loss moving them on to the Galesburg Sectional. In the Galesburg Sectional, Wood- ruff drew Media as their first foe and smashed them 43-23. Galva was their opponent in the semi-final round, and the Corrells battered out a 49-28 win over them. The Blues copped the championship title when they de- feated their ancient rival, East Peoria, 35-34 in the greatest thriller of the year. Entering the State tournament as an underdog, the Blues chose the tall rangy Gillespie five as their first op- ponent. Much to the surprise of everyone, the Woodruff boys shot out a 45-39 win. The play of Larry Ker- ker and Lyle DeKalb featured in the tilt. Facing another tough foe, Paris, in the quarter-finals, the Corrells were downed 51-42. Four Blues went out on fouls, Lyle DeKalb, Kenny Stockwell, Dick Gresham and Man- uel Gutierrez. Dick Gresham's play warranted him a berth on the Second All-Star Team, before he followed his teammates by the foul route. All in all, the Blues had a suc- cessful season and were received in fine style all over the state. For their grand season, the Blues were featured at banquets by several of their sup- porters. Ten boys were declared mon- ogram winners, Dick Gresham, Lyle DeKalb, Larry Kerker, Kenny Stock- well, Manual Gutierrez, Kenny Has- brouck, Bill Crawford, Chuck Ford, John Senti, and Chuck Haw- ley .

Basketball Heroes of Tomorrow Contrary to last year, the Frosh- Soph basketball team opened the season with a victory over Galesburg, winning 17 to 14. The Blueboys experienced a great deal of difficulty in the Roose- velt game and finally lost out 28 to 24. St. Patrick's parish. A newcomer to the Blues schedule, was put into camp in the third encounter of the season. There was no regular captain dur- ing the season, as several of the mem- bers were given the duties of pilot. Coach Ray Wolf depended upon the new freshmen coming in at the turn of the semester to bolster his group. These same boys are de- pended upon to carry the basketball burden for the next couple of years. Although not enjoying a remark- able season such as the varsity ex- perienced, they improved as the '39 year progressed and should be in good shape for next year.

At the start of the second semester Bill got his chance. A guard, he was always play- ing a good rebounding, consistent game. LYLE DEKALB. 'tSlip,' was the out- standing member of the team. Always a cool, reliable mainstay, he was largely responsible for Woodruff be- ing represented at the state tourna- ment. His last minute clincher sent the Blueboys downstate. He was all- city forward this year. CHARLES FORD. Even though he played only one semester of varsity basketball, Chuck proved to be one of the best defensive guards the Blues had this year. DON FORD. The first freshman to make a varsity basketball team here, Don played either forward or guard. You will hear much more of him, for he has three years of competition left. DICK GRESHAM. During his sec- ond year of varsity basketball, Dick was outstanding for his one-handed shots. He was always in the thick of things when the going got tough. He made second teams for both all-city and all-state selections. MANUEL GUTIERREZ. HGutha quickly hopped into a varsity berth at the semester. Only a sophomore, he played his guard position well, and had an uncanny eye at long range. KENNY HASBROUCK. The sixth man on the team, he proved to be an able reserve all year. Another sopho- more, he will be here next year. CHARLEY HAWLEY. Finally he got his chance and came through with Hying colors. A large youth, he was a great rebounder and ball-handler. LARRY KERKER. For the past three years '4Pete has been a main- stay on the cage team. His eagle-eye enabled the Blues to cop many a close one. All-city scoring champion last year, he was named all-city member again this year, and one of the out- standing centers in the state. EARL LAYTON. 'LStub, a junior was the midget, but could really move. He played forward most of the year, understudying Gresham or DeKalb. BOB PARTRIDGE. With a varsity berth at stake for the tournament roster Bob lost to Layton by the flip of a coin. A tall rangy lad, he proved to be an able rebounder. JOHN SENTI. L'Red played as a re- serve, and was good at long range shots. He was a valuable asset to the team during the first semester. KENNY STOCKWELL. K e n n y really showed up well during his first year of varsity play. A natural leader, he copped a place on the starting five. A great ball handler and defensive player he has one more semester. BILL WAHL. Coming from the freshman-sophomore team he broke into the varsity and proved quite a ball handler and dribbler.

A One-Hit Game Since last season's nine was a team developed during a year of experi- menting, the Blues managed to eke out only three wins against eight losses in an eleven game schedule. Under the able direction of Coaches Tommy Correll and Ray Wolf sev- eral promising players were de- veloped and should cause plenty of trouble in games with other schools this year. In the opening game of the year against Glasford, Louie Droll pitched a one-hit masterpiece, defeating them 5 to O. Also during the fray Larry Kerker blasted out the first home run that was ever hit for Woodruff, with two teammates aboard. After this win, the Blues dropped seven straight - Plenty of Thrills games to Spalding, East Peoria, Man- ual twice, Central twice, and Prince- ville. The Corrells then broke the ice with another win over Glasford 5 to 4, with freshman Art Ecklund doing some excellent relief hurling. The next foe the Blues faced was Low Point High School and Joe Stef- fin, who allowed the Corrells just two hits, beating them 10 to 1. In the seasonls finale the Blues defeated the Spalding Irish 7 to 3, due to Bob Smith's three-hit pitching. The fol- lowing men received letters: Louie Droll, Bob Smith, Art Ecklund, Dale Fenton, John Senti, Larry Kerker, Ed Meyer, Fred Fass, jim Mowry, Del Taylor, Ed Pesch, Walt Denlick, and Harold Anderson. 92 Baseball Heroes Top: Denlick, Droll, Fass, Kerker. Below: Meyer, Pesch, Smith. WALTER DENLICK. Walter was a hustling freshman who was g o o d enough to make the first team and also earn a varsity letter. He was an unusually good ball hawk and seldom missed any balls that came his way. LOUIE DROLL. Louie was one of the regular pitchers and marked him- self as a dangerous hurler to face, when in the first game of the season he limited Glasford to one hit. Pitch- ing good ball this year, he should make a winning pitcher next year. FRED FASS. A sophomore, he played in the outfield, third base, and occasionally was called upon to do some pitching. Fred had plenty on the ball, and will probably do more pitch- ing in his junior year. LARRY KERKER. Larry proved himself a valuable asset to the team because of his speed on the bases, his good throwing and his timely hitting. He has another year and should be one of the main cogs in the Woodruff team. ED MEYER. Ed played third base and right field, showing good form afield and also at bat. With his size and power he was one of the leading hitters on the club. He, like the rest of the sophomores on the regular team, should make up a very formid- able team in another year. ED PESCH. Ed proved to be one of the most dependable hitters on the squad. His fielding improved with every game, and at the end of the season he was a polished ball player. Great things are expected of him for the next two years. BOB SMITH. Bob was regular pitcher during the 1938 season, and did some outstanding work in the later weeks. In the Spalding game he did some fine work, and put them down in easy fashion. He should be a consistent winner in 1939. rl QW K ,,,. ra X -.. lil Hx , CE' , wus wus- fr H YVIIS YYIIN uv n 54 WH S Q, v s. Top Row: james, Younglove, Diller, Wahl, Emser, Dixon, Beake.

Topple Many Foes in Heated Contests In the Hrst year of track at Wood- ruff, Coach Roy Gummerson pre- sented a fast flying squad. Since only two boys graduated, Len Fosdick and Ray Bauman, the Blues should be represented very well in the cinder sport this year. During the year several men stood out. Carl Kent represented Woodruff at the state track meet in the high jump and javelin throw. In the greater Peoria Meet Carl tied for first in the high jump. He was also high scorer for the year with his 61V2 points. Another harrier who starred dur'ng the year was sophomore Bill Bren- nan, who raced to a first place in the Greater Peoria Track Meet in the mile event. In the annual Fresh-Sophs' Re- lays held at Lincoln, the underclass- men showed up very well, placing sec- ond, being nosed out by the host team by two points. During the heated fray, Art Scott leaped to a new record jump with a leap of 19' 9314 . After a lengthy season of nine meets, the following men were awarded letters: Art Scott, Carl Kent, Don Alexander, Len Fosdick, Bill Brennan, Bob Rose, Jack Diller, Lyle Friess, Jim Kromphardt, Em- mett Skaggs, and Herbert Timmons.

TIIGYIIG Trained for Endurance For the first time in the history of North Side athletics a cross-country team was organized at Woodruff. Under the able tutelage of Roy Gum- merson, spring track coach, the team was ready for athletic wars. Mr. Gum- merson, a former Bradley thinclad, was one of the greatest track men ever to attend Bradley. Besides being an ace cross-country man, Mr. Gummer- son still holds the record at Bradley in the mile. The season was quite a success, con- sidering it was their first attempt at the sport. In two encounters with Manual they won both meets. In the Kewanee Invitational they came off with second place honors in one of the large meets of the year. Dale DuPuy, a senior boy and act- ing captain, seemed tof be the main point maker for the Blue harriers. He raced home to a fourth place in the Kewanee Invitational in a field of 132 runners. Also he copped two firsts in the dual meets against Manual. For his Victory in the Manual run, the team was awarded a trophy which he later presented to the school. Besides DuPuy, other lads who showed up well were Louie Droll, Bill Crawford, john Diller, and Wilbur Miller. The only junior on the team to show well was Lyle Friess, who will be the one letterman to return next year. TEAM RECORD La Fayette Invitational ........ Fifth Place Woodruff 37- Manual 59.

Keqlers Daily Become More Noisy Every Monday night the Woodruff bowling team is among those at the Peoria Auto Parts who really knock the pins over. This is their practice night, and it is from the averages of these scores that the first and second teams are selected. Each of the four schools in the city, Manual, C e n t r a l, Spalding, and Woodruff has a first and second team who meet every Friday and battle for the city championship. Letters will be given to those who participate in two-thirds of the tourn- ament games. Thus far this year the high game is 234, rolled by Jack Bul- ger, who is followed closely by Tony Shuda with 224. The high team game is 893, and Tony Shuda holds the record for the high two games, his score for these totaling 416. This year for the first time the athletic department will award let- ters. It is necessary, of course, that the boys be scholastically eligible, just as in any other activity, as bowl- ing is now recognized as a regular sport in the athletic curriculum. The team is under the direction of Mr. Colgan, who has done much to give it this standing at Woodruff. W Z .5 D il 'fi-.ir ,X , Bob Reynolds demon- strates correct form as his team mates look on.

Golfers Gain Thrilling Victories After a bad start, Coach Harry Landis' golf team managed to break better than even by winning five games, dropping four, tying one. Captain Bob Reynolds was the only letterman that returned from the 1937 golf team. Besides being Captain of the team, Bob Reynolds was the only Blue to represent Woodruff at the state meet held here last year. In the district meet, also held here, the Blues were runners-up to the great Peoria-Central team. For this achievement the boys received medals. Besides the main foursome the boys received some very valuable aid from Sid Schwartz and Jack Krantz. With a team consisting entirely of juniors, Coach Landis should present a strong team against any opposition they have this year. 1 1938 RECORD Woodruff. . 5 Bloomington 7 ni Woodruff. . 5 Pekin .... 7 Woodruff. . 5 Central . . . 7 '+' Woodruff. . 9M Spalding . . zyg ' f K Woodruff, .12 Spalding . .

Tennis Team Trains for Contests In the first year of tennis at Woodruff the Blues failed to win a match, but did manage to tie the Irish from Spalding. Coach Bill Dragalin was in charge of the squad and developed several promising players, with freshman Don DeMent showing up the best. Of the six boys on the squad only two were seniors, Dick Haungs and jim Briggs. Since Jim received a letter in tennis, he became the first three-letterman ever to attend Woodruff, having obtained two previous letters in football and basketball. Although Coach Dragalin has lost two valuable men in Dick Haungs and Jim Briggs, we expect great things from his net team this year.

They entered the Annual Golden Glove tourney as a team and, one of their members, Paul Benko, in the 112 pound class fought in the finals. Under the able direction of Al Schurrah the Blues were really whip- ped into shape. Mr. Schurrah, a for- mer boxer, himself, fighting for the middleweight title in 1935, really knew how to handle the boys. Little Paul Benko lost the Fly- weight title to Lucien Ingrassia of Pekin before more than 3,500 people. He copped the first round, but drop- ped the next two by forcing the fighting. In the semi-finals, Paul copped two wins, winning from Bob Johnson and John Elliott, both of Chillicothe. The mitters suffered a loss when John Cassidy of Caterpillar pounded out a win over Jim Coffel. Frank Button, hard hitting light- weight, copped a thrilling fight from Lolbert Lear from Havana. But Frank wasnlt so fortunate in his sec- ond bout of the evening, when he was kayoed by a fast moving colored lad, Johnny Leek, of Canton, in the first round. In the 135 pound class, Johnny Hunt defeated rugged Bob Baugh of Homewood Heights. John lost his second bout of the evening to Ralph Aberle of the Caterpillar team in a much disputed decision. For his ex- cellent performance in this division, John Hunt was named alternate. Boys' Gym Classes Here are boys in gym classes playing badminton in the farther court, and deck tennis in the closer.

Girls' Athletic Association The League of Girls' Athletics Association has a definite purpose, to stimulate interest in girls' athletics and to standardize and promote ideals of health and sportsmanship. They have regular days for sports, at which time they play hockey, bas- ketball, and volleyball. A meeting is held only when something important Miss Dorothy Mohn, Director 102 arises. This organization has well over one hundred members and is ever increasing. To raise money, they sold candy alternately with the Red Cross at the home basketball games. Usually specializing in one game at a time, they break away from this custom occasionally when they attend play days where they participate in several games for a certain time. Last fall they attended one of these events held at Peoria Central High School. Last year the association sent Betty Favorite and Evelyn Stringham to camp at Bloomington, and this year they have set a higher goal and are planning to send live girls. Miss Mohn, the gymnasium teach- er, is their adviser, who is helping them to continue the fun they get in the freshman-sophomore gym classes.

Girls' Gym Classes Right along with their gymnastics they learn to build pyramids, to dive over each other, and to perform other difficult tricks. In the late fall, the freshman gym- nasium classes participate in gymnas- tics, which strengthen their bodies and at the same time give them much en- joyment. 104 In the spring when all thoughts are of the prom, the girls find much pleas- ure in learning how to dance. Many of the girls of all classes find badminton a very interesting game and receive it with open arms. This year was the first year for hockey at Woodruff. It is quite fast and different from any other sport, and has proven to be great fun. Since the visit of the archer in as- sembly, Woodruff girls have become decidedly archery minded, and arch- ery is now one of the main spring sports. Remembered joys are n e v e r pastf, Students as we see them every day are shown in this section. The cameraman has attempted to catch as many as possible at their hobby, or with their pals just as We know them. W i I I fi 5 OFFICE ASSISTANTS Top Row: Plack, Orr, Gres- ham, Nordbusch.

OU HAVE SHOWN good judgment in having had your annual printed in your ownhome town, by the only known method that produces pictures of your classmates sharply and clearly. ln the years to come you are going to look back in memory at this book and be glad it was printed by letter press method instead ot by mimeograph or some interior method ot preserving some ot your most cherished memories. Quality will always be remembered when price has been forgotten .... DO YOU KNOW- ln 1866, when our granddads were working 12 hours a day, and more on busy days, printers in convention resolved that eight hours should con- stitute a day's work but it was not until the early nineties that working hours were reduced to 10, then in l898 to 9 hours. But the 8-hour day, effec- tive lan. l, l90G involved a struggle and cost the printers over S3,000,000.00. We then continued for shorter hours so in l922 at a cost of over 316,000,000 the 44-hour became effective, until today 44 hours is recognized as standard for labor all over the country. So through the pioneering efforts of the Typographical union ALL laboring men have bene- fitted-and we all labor do we not?
