JAMES MARSHALL
V i
\
E have spent four school years under the supervision
of Mr. James E. Marshall, and in those four years
many of us have come to know him as more than our
principal. We have found him to be an earnest advocate of
student activities, a sincere believer in the integrity and honesty
of the student body, a fine friend, and a ready helper.
It was Mr. Marshall who started Central high school on the
road to student government and kept it on the road when the
participating students were ready to give up the journey.
It was under Mr. Marshall that activities and organizations
reached their highest point of development in the historv of the
school.
lie is broadminded, vigorous, and just—the type of man that
any school is fortunate to have at its head.
THE STUDENT COUNCIL
Although the Student Council has
been in existence for only three years.
it has done much for the welfare of
the students of Central. Lately, it
was reorganized and has been func-
tioning well all year. At present the
Council is composed of representa-
tives from the four classes, presidents
of all recognized organizations, one
representative from athletics, and
three faculty advisors.
One of the accomplishments of the
Student Council during the past year
was the organization and operation
of the traffic and court system. A
member of traffic officers, both boys
and girls, were authorized by the
Council. These “cops” maintained
order in the halls and helped in a
general way to keep the building and
campus orderly.
The personell of this court was as
follows: judge, Jack Scanlon; prose-
cuting attorneys, Norman Giere and
Allen Nourse; defense attorneys,
Harriet Goldberg. Frank Kluckholm,
and David McCloud: jury, Richard
Sanders, Oscar Willius, William
Christopherson. John Beard, Abra-
ham Harris, and Harvey Stougaard ;
sub-jury, Rae Parkins. Mary Louise
Cless. Beatrice Hutchins, and David
McCloud. The Chief of Girls’ Police
was Mary Louise Cless. Much credit
is due the girls for their excellent
help to the Student Council and the
school.
The officers of the Council are:
President. Jack Scanlon: vice-presi-
dent, Rae Parkins: secretary. Nor-
man Giere.
As the years of my life are drawing
to a close, 1 feel the urge within me
to set down on paper some of the re-
markable adventures that fate dealt
me in my lite, and especially that one
wherein I was projected into the fu-
ture. and saw great things; viz, the
life of the youths and maidens of the
20th century, this now being the 17th.
I have lived for years alone, far
from the sight of man. and for years
with only my savage friend, Friday.
for a companion. But that indeed is
but naught when thoughts of my
greatest adventure enter my head.
Well do I remember that day when.
with a fair breeze behind us. we set
forth from Hull in the barque “Pros-
pect.”
My people come from Hull and
York, although of Teutonic extrac-
tion. and are land lovers. My roving
disposition was apparent when 1 was
but a boy. and my father would often
counsel against what he thought rash
intentions. But all in vain ! At the
age of 17. T set forth from England,
and little bethought me of what lay
ahead. Had I known the slightest
of what was to be my lot. my heart
would have slowed in its beating with
the blood congealing in my veins.
But such is not the lot of man. The
world knows already of the remark-
able adventures of Robinson Crusoe.
when he spent half of his life on a
desert island, but until now. I have
even feared the very thought of set-
ting down the story 1 am about to
unfold : viz. the account of my adven-
tures in the years of 1920,'21,'22. ’23,
and ’2-1 in that remarkable place
tailed high school, among the strange
foung people who inhabit it.
But coming back to my talc; we
were but five days out from Hull
when a most terrible and ferocious
storm arose, raising the seas to moun-
tain-like heights and threatening our
fair ship with foundering any minute.
For two weeks we struggled with the
gale, beaten out of known water into
the unknown, with death always at
our elbows, and the people of the
ship half crazed with the horror and
terror of the seas, and the gale, and
the strangeness of the air about us.
It was on the fifteenth day of the
storm when I had managed to strug-
gle to the forepeak of the ship when
the lookouts call of “Land. Land"
came to my ears, just as the ship.
with a most terrifying jar and crash
stopped dead and began to pound
rendingly upon the reef which it
had struck. Alas, it was the end. I
owe my life to the fact that as the
foremast went by the board T became

entangled in the foot ropes and went
with it. The shock of striking the
cold water was the last thing I re-
membered.
Gradually T became conscious oi
being in a building of most remark-
able proportions and beauty, the
whole being put together with the
most consummate skill, such as I had
never seen before.
Being of a religious nature and a
Christian. I fell to my knees and
thanked God for sparing my life. It
was shortly after this that I made a
terrifying discovery. What I thought
was my earthly body was in truth
but my spirit, and although T was
fully possessed of mv five senses. I
found that I was totally invisible to
anyone but myself.
I was able to make this discovery
because I had seen a human being
in the long hall and upon addressing
myself to him. he gave no indication
of being conscious of my presence.
At first I attributed this to some pe-
culiar thing about the man. for he
was very queer and strangely
dressed. But the recurrance of the
same thing many times confirmed the
thought I was afraid to express. I
was lost! This was not the here-
after; Iwas sure of that. I was ut-
terly doomed.
Gradually I became used to the
place in which I found myself, for
the world in 1920 was a strange place
compared to England in sixteen hun-
dred. For it was in the year 1920
that 1 found myself. 1 was three
hundred years in the future. But all
things will work out of their own ac-
cord. and it was really not long be-
fore f bad become acquainted with
this place called Central. At this
time I had decided that, better than
doing nothing. I should apply myself
to chronicling the events of the place.
It was at this time that there came
here a generation called the Genera-
tion of 1924. I then decided that I
should put down the important
events of this “class." as it was called.
The first thing this band did was
to elect leaders in a very democratic
fashion. For a leader a boy named
Robert Tunstal was chosen, and his
title was President. As these people
were young, it was deemed expedient
that an older person be with them to
guide them, so they would become
more familiar with the ways of the
place. A goodly woman was appont-
ed; Miss Dunivon she was called. In
this first year, that the members of
the “class" might become better ac-
quainted with one another, a gather-
ing called a “Freshman party” was
held. There was amusement for all
and an enjoyable afternoon was had
in the gymnasium, a wondrous queer
hall where the gathering was held.
Perhaps you think it strange I do not
discourse upon the nature of these
people, but I am not writing for that
purpose.
However, one of the customs on
which I must remark was to have a
discussion called the Freshman-Soph-
^WgBBSDiORfliOMBl
omore debate wherein a subject was
treated by six people who would
argue both the pros and the cons of
the subject for a prize. In this first
discussion the Generation of ’24 de-
feated their opponents. It was not
long alter this that their first rear at
this honorable institution was ended.
Another custom at this place was
to have everything run bv years; viz.
there were four divisions and each
year one would leave and another
would enter. Thus it will be seen
that four years was the time alloted
for one generation to remain. So at
this time, the class, or Generation of
’24. was now in its second year.
and was called ‘‘Sophomore." The
first officers having held their posi-
tions for their appointed terms, new
ones were chosen. For a president
one Allen Nourse was chosen, and
also was a new advisor to the class
appointed who was known as Miss
Brodeen. Once again a merry shin-
dig was held in the gymnasium
where there was much rejoicing. To
close the year the “Sophomores"
were soundly trounced by the suc-
ceeding generation; viz, the “Fresh-
men.” However short and unevent-
ful was the second year, the third
made up for it in glory and splendor.
But oh. what longings there were
in my heart to be back in my earthly
bodv once more, away irom this hoi-
riblc place in the future where every-
one seemed happy but me. How I
longed for the shores of Meriie Bug-
land once more! How I wished 1
had never left my home! But a thou-
sand repentances did me no good.
And 1 must get back to my tale: the
time is growing short.
Allen Nourse was selected to take
the throne again. Preparations hav-
ing been made, the “Juniors." as they
were now called, met again the class
before them in debate and were
trampled upon for a second time.
Now, not wishing to close a season
without a victory, they challenged a
school called North High and strange
as it may seem, were again given the
standard of subjugation; viz. were
beaten. Still undaunted, another in-
stitution. Minneapolis Central, was
met and this time victory perched on
the banner of the ‘‘Juniors.'’
Another custom, and a commend-
able one. was to have a ball called
the T-S: viz. Junior-Senior, once a
year, to be given by the Juniors.
Now. this year, a great dispute and
much talk arose in regard to a place
in which this ball was to be held, but
a goodly conclusion was at last come
to. and the ball was a huge success.
And now the class was ready t > be-
gin their last and biggest year. A
new leader, one Stirling Price, was
elected : viz. chosen by casting of bal-
lots. as was the custom.
The biggest task before them was
the publication of a book, to be called
the “Senior Annual." A staff was
chosen and set to work writing dili-
gently. Again a debate was held, and
a third time were the class argumen-
tators severely trod upon.
In order to acquire money, it was
decided to hold a celebration to be

and with it throngs. Once inside,
everyone said goodby to his money.
for none could resist the wares and
the cunning contrivances which
worked like magnets drawing money
right and left out of the pockets of
the credulous ones. It was soon
over, however, leaving everyone pen-
niless. happy, and contented.
Every place has its heroes; viz,
people who are honored for their
deeds. In this place the football
team ; viz. a band of boys who would
play a peculiar game of bone break-
ing. was highly honored. A banquet
was held for them, and a happy
gathering it was.
Soon after, the debating team de-
feated a villa called Stillwater and
closed their book of accomplish-
ments.
And now came the event which
everyone looks forward to. After the
Annual was presented to the public,
the exercises of graduation took place.
and the Class of '24 moved into the
past.
For many days I wandered lonely.
through the school. An insatiable
longing swept over me to be back
once more in the age where 1 be-
longed. Thus it was one night when
1 lay down to sleep. I felt a queer
buzzing in my head, then a roar as
of the sea; then the air began to
chill; the building swam dizzily
about me; all went black! I felt as
if I were being hurled through the
air; then water rushed over me, and
receded. I smelt and felt and heard
the sea! I opened my eyes and
thanks be to God. I was lying on a
beach, with the sea beating about me.
It was an island.
But how I had aged. My clothes
were falling apart; my joints were so
stiff I could not use them. I was
rusty. But T was glad.
1 was gradually able to use my
body once more and discovered that
it was not a dream I had had, but a
trip into the future. It was an island
I was on, and I was there but a
month when T was rescued by a good
ship when she stopped for water.
ft is now years ago all this took
place, and T have but a few years left
to live. But I see happiness and
hope ahead for the world with such
things as T saw in store for it. That
much at least I know.

OUR FOREMOST SENIORS
The most desirable result of our at-
tendance at high school is educa-
tion broad enough to include credit-
able class work and a generous meas-
ure of experience among our fellow
students in organized recreational ac-
tivities. The class is glad that its
leading students have preserved a
balance between studies and the more
or less serious hobbies and pastimes
which enrich school life. They have
done more than their share in up-
holding the standards of the school in
their scholarship and participation in
outside activities. They arc better
than typical.
As she is the first scholar in the
class, Marion Henry is also first
among the girls, at least, in work-
done for the organizations of which
she has been a member. Marion’s
senior year has been a particularly
brilliant one: while she was taking
the longest part in the Dramatic Club
play, and efficiently assisting with the
costuming of the production, tilling
the difficult position of class treas-
ured, writing for the W orld, and act-
ing as secretary to two societies, she
made an average of 93.19 per cent in
icr studies.
There are always some people we
look to for sympathy and apprecia-
tion. Ada Brunke, sahitatorian of the
class, is one of these. Busy as she
has been since she entered Central,
she has always had time to give her
kindly, understanding attention to
whatever was brought to her notice.
The members of the faculty who have
had Ada in their classes commend
her faithfulness and scholarly ability.
Tlie class is proud of. its scholars
and of tire record- thev have made.

HISTORICAL SOCIETY ®
1'he Historical society is one of the
organizations at Central which works
quietly, but its work is probably
more far reaching than that of any
other.
Membership in the society is based
on scholarship. A group of teachers
elect as members of the society a
certain number of students whose
scholarship is high. There are al-
ways fifteen student members of the
Society.
In 1908, the Historical Society be-
gan the work of keeping records of
all the Central graduates. Today the
files contain cards for every student
who has graduated from Central
since the Class of 18? I. This class
contained two pupils, a boy and a
girl, the girl being valedictorian and
the boy salutatorian. In the files, a
record is kept of the honors achieved.
marriages, births, and deaths of all
graduates. Pictures of as many of
the graduates as possible are also
kept.
There are three scrap books which
are very interesting: The souvenir
book which contains programs, tick-
ets. invitations, and commencement
announcements which go back as far
as the year 1874. the social scrap-
book which contains newspaper clip-
pings and comments on all the social
functions given at Central or by Cen-
tralites, and the athletic scrapbook
which contains records of all the ath-
letic events in which Central paitic*-
pated from the year 1900 up to date.
The only complete file of the school
"\\ orld" has been preserved by the
society. The secretaries’ books of
the last fifteen classes have also been
kept by the society. Books written
by graduates of Central have been
purchased by the society or sent to it.
The society has started a good deal
of other important work. A record of
the “C” men is now being worked up
as is also a card catalogue, started by
Mr. Stapleton, which is to contain the
names of all those Centralites who
went to war.
A plan for a junior fund is being
drawn up by a graduate of Central
according to which any self-support-
ing junior, whose scholarship war-
rants it. will be given enough money
to enable him to finish high school.
The plan provides for a board of
trustees composed of both teachers
and business men. the teachers to
make the award of the money, and
the business men to pay it.
The present officers of the society
are: president. Marion Truax; re-
cording secretary. Josephine Conger;
corresponding secretary. Marion Hcn-
rv: finance committee. Helen I fall
and Thomas Rishworth; treasurer.
Miss S. L. Matson.
Much of the material which has
been collected by the society has been
sent to them by former students of
Central and by their parents.

WL CLASS OF 1927
In the fall of 1923, there entered
Central three hundred bewildered
and expectant freshmen who were to
become the class of 1927, with Miss
Mary \ . Carney as their adviser.
Early in the fall, representatives
from all the English 1 and 2 classes
met to elect a committee to formulate
a class constitution. Those elected
were Janet Xolan. Marie Dahl, and
Dorna Clefton. These three, with the
assistance of Miss Carney, succeeded
in drawing up a constitution which
provides, among-other things, for an
election of officers each semester.
The following are the present of-
ficers: president, John Beard: vice-
president, Frank Baumgardner: sec-
retary, Dorna Clefton : treasurer. Ja-
net Xolan: finance committee. Louise
Hall and James Dunning.
After the tryouts for the debating
team. Dorothy Pace. Herman I.us-
san. and Jerome Caminsky were cho-
sen to represent the class, with Mr
Watson as coach.
The first annual party of the class
was held in the library at -I 15 on the
afternoon of February twenty-first.
Music for dancing was supplied by
Alvin Silverman and his orchestra.
For those who did not wish to dance.
Mali Jongg sets were provided. The
program consisted of a piano solo by
Julia Bellis; readings by Evelyn
Schwartz and Audrey Engehnan : and
a violin solo by Adele Goldstein, ac-
companied by Julia Bellis. To Jose-
phine Barnes. Emily Xichols. and
Stuart Moore, chairmen of the dec-
oration, program, and refreshment
committees respectively, belongs the
credit for a very good time.
On March IS. Miss Carney sailed
for England where she will study the
school system of the Empire. Dur-
ing her absence. Miss Meili has kind-
ly assumed the burden of class ad-
viser.
The Freshman-Sophomore debate
on the subject: Resolved that the
present congress should pass the Sol-
dier’s Bonus Bill as fostered by the
American Legion, was held in Cen-
tral's auditorium on the evening of
April 4. Mr. Albert G .Meier pre-
sided.
The judges, Charles 1 Fayes, Ver-
non Miller, and M. J. Doherty decid-
ed in favor of the fre-hmen team.
The freshmen basket ball team,
consisting of Moe Litssan. Arthur Mc-
Ginnis. Roy Bouchier. Walter Schleh.
ami Christopher Roach, has been
very successful up to the present time
in winning two games out of three
Their first game was with the Hum-
boldt freshmen by whom they were
defeated by a score of 9 to 5. The
second game with Johnson was a tie.
the score being IS to IS. and the last
game with Mechanics was won by a
score of 9 to 13.
The usual activities attributed to a
freshman class have been accomplish-
ed. and so ends the chronicles of the
first year of the life of the class of
1927.
Dorna Clefton
In the fall of 1922, Central opened
her famous portals to the first mem-
bers of the Class of 1926. At the
first meeting, Mr. Meier inspired the
members of the class to great things
in his welcoming address, closing
with the introduction of Miss Eileen
Kennedy, as the adviser. At this
meeting, a temporary chairman. Car-
roll Bellis, was elected to conduct the
meeting.
At the next meeting, a constituion
was read and adopted. An election
of officers was also held, at which
Jack Wooster was made president;
Jean Coons, vice-president: Barbara
Poore, secretary ; and Kirker Bixby,
treasurer, with a finance committee
composed of William Platt and James
Thomas.
The Freshman-Sophomore debate
came shortly after. The freshman
team, Richard Purcell. Evelyn Mc-
Manigal. Kirker Bixby, and Carroll
Bellis, deserve the heartiest congrat-
ulations, although they were defeated
by their older and more experienced
opponents.
Feeling the need for celebration,
the freshmen closed a very success-
ful year with a party in the gymna-
sium. The chairmen of the party
committees, were: Madalyn Ken-
dall, entertainment ; Carol Gundlach,
refreshments; and Harold Cooley,
music.
When the class returned to school,
the following September as sopho-
mores. these students were chosen to
pilot them: president. Jack Woos-
ter; vice-president. Jean Coons; sec-
retary. Kirker Bixby; and treasurer.
Edith Quamme.
This year, the sophomore party
was held in December, and all who
attended had a good time. The com-
mittee chairmen in charge were: en-
tertainment. Barbara Poore: re-
freshments. Elizabeth McMillan;
music. Stewart Drill: and invita-
tions, Howard Knapp.
After the mid-year exams were
over, came the new term and elec-
tion time. This semester. David Mc-
Cloud was elected president: Eliza-
beth McMillan, vice-president: Em-
met O'Connor, secretary; and Doro-
thy Burrows, treasurer, with Jack
Struchen and Frank Kluckholm as
representatives in the Student Coun-
cil, and Irving Levy and Norbert
Murray as the sophomore members
of the Athletic Board of Control.
The annual freshman-sophomore
debate was held in April. Those cho-
sen to represent ’26 were: llillford
Bowes, Evelyn McManigal. and Car-
roll Bellis, with Jack Burke for alter-
nate. The subject under discussion,
the Bonus Bill, was hotly debated,
but in spite of the team's valiant ef-
forts. the victory was awarded to the
freshman by a vote of two to one.
'I'hc class feels very greatly indebt-
ed to its advisers. Miss Kennedy,
Miss Tisdale, and Miss O’Hora, and
owes its success to their wise and in-
spiring guidance during the past two
years.

L-. CLASS OF 1925 ZZf
In September 1921 a large, strange,
and considerably bewildered group of
freshmen arrived at that great insti-
tution of learning. Central high
school.
Shortly after their arrival, they
held their first class meeting, and or-
der came from chaos. With Xorberl
Murray as president, Betty Scanlan
as vice-president. Pauline McXear as
secretary, and Theophil Rusterholz as
treasurer, the class started its first
year. The newly organized class
adopted a constitution, collected its
dues, gave a grand party in the gym-
nasium, and. much to its surprise and
delight, won the annual freshman-
sophomore debate with Xonnan
Giere. Ruth Richards, and Raymond
Eppel upholding the affirmative of
the question: ‘‘Resolved, that the
unofficial charter committee should
present to the voters of this city a
city manager charter similar to that
of Dayton. Ohio, constitutionality
granted."
When the class advanced to the
rank of sophomore, it took on new
dignitv and responsibility. The main
event in the first term was the jolly
party given in the gymnasium, great-
ly enjoved bv all those class members
wise enough to have paid their dues
and so permitted to be present. It
was also at this time that the class
chose a very attractive and quite un-
usual gold pin as its emblem. It was
in the second term that the debating
term, composed of Norman Giere.
Ruth Richards, and Xolton Liebei-
man. again won a splendid victory.
Early in the semester, arrange-
ments were made for the annual jun-
ior-senior debate which was held in
the school auditorium and was well
attended by a crowd of enthusiastic
juniors. Xordan Schoenberg. Xoltcn
Lieberman, and Xonnan Giere sup-
ported the affirmative of the ques-
tion: Resolved, that the next session
of Congress approve of the World
Court as substantiated by the late
President I larding. The decision
was for the third time given to the
Class of ‘25.
But by far the most important
event in the junior year was the re-
ception given in honor of the seniors.
If this all absorbing affair was a suc-
cess credit is due. primarily, to the
general chairman. Marion Truax, and
her assistants on the various commit-
tees of which the chairmen were the
following: Decorations. Richard
Sanders: Invitations. Josephine
Conger: Refreshments. Marcele Har-
ris; Entertainment. Alice Mary

Program Design. Theodore I legcr.
In any high school organization.
however, the faculty adviser is a
large factor, and the Class of ‘25 is
certainly no exception, for it has al-
wavs found Miss Elizabeth Stroble
an invaluable source of help and ad-
vice.

JUNTO
The Junto was formed in 1918 by
a group of seniors with the laudable
purpose of furthering the literary de-
velopment of the school. This was to
be done by having the members of
the club present dramatizations,
scenes from plays or readings, at the
monthly meetings.
In school affairs the Junto has
been prominent. In the Post Exam
Jubilee given by the seniors last year
the Junto won first prize, a silver lov-
ing cup. with a one-act play, “Sham,”
given by the members of the club.
The requirements of a candidate
are that he have at least eight credits
and submit a written manuscript or
present an oral recitation. A care-
fully chosen committee decides on the
merits of these, which, needless to
say. is no very small task.. Last fall,
ninety manuscripts were received, to
say nothing of a large number of or-
al selections, making the choice of
new members very difficult.
The advisors of the club are Mr.
Rusterholz and Mr. Bush. The pres-
ent officers are : president, Paul San-
dell ; vice-president. Richard Sanders,
secretary, Virginia McGuigan; treas-
urer, Fredrik Lengby.

RADIO CLUB
The Central high school Radio
Club, organized in 1918 with approxi-
mately ten members, has grown un-
til the roll now numbers twenty-six.
The purpose of the club is to promote
amateur wireless and to help begin-
ners to hook up and operate their
sets.
Meetings of the club are held every
Monday evening at seven forty-five
in room fifty-five, where the mem-
bers ‘’listen in" on the club set, dis-
cuss their own sets, and then arc
treated to a program prepared by a
program committee.
The old club set. a de Forrest, was
stolen during the summer vacation,
but the school board very generous-
ly contributed the parts for a I’. V.
199 three tube set. These parts were
assembled by the members them-
selves into a set with which they have
had uncommon success.
Membership in the club is open to
any student who is interested in wire-
less or radio, and who owns a set or
hopes to.
The club is operating under a new
constitution. William Mcllvaine is
the president at this time, replacing
Maynard Briggs who left school in
the middle of the year. Warren P'ox
holds the office of vice-president.
while John Wald is secretary and
treasurer. The chief operator for the
club is Edward Stern.

FINE ARTS SOCIETY
In the spring of 1919 the Fine Arts
Society was organized under the able
guidance of Miss Olive Long and
Miss Eleanor Eaton. The six char-
ter members, Ruth Powers. Ruth
Bailey, Elsa Johnson. Faith Hall,
Grace Goldsmith, and Alice Mary
Connelly, were girls who were inter-
ested in the fine arts. They selected
twenty-five other girls, and since then
the membership has been increased to
fifty. The society now has for its ad-
viser Miss Grace Cochran, and under
her expert leadership, it has accom-
plished much for Central, as well as
for the club members.
Besides the knowledge of art. lit-
erature. music, and the drama, anoth-
er "art." that of school service, is em-
phasized in the society curriculum.
Probably the greatest service that
the society has done for Central is
taking care of the emergency room.
For four years it has been managed
successfully by the Fine Arts girls.
and it has become of inestimable
value to Central. This year, how-
ever. a school nurse. Miss Marie
Wolfman, has taken charge.
Two years ago the Fine Arts So-
cietv arranged to have the emergency
room renovated, and last year a sum
of monev was added to the school
Hag fund.
The club, however, is not without
its social activities. A tea was given
for the new members after the initia-
tions in the fall, and in the spring
another lea will be given for the Fine
Arts girls who are graduating this
year. In February a toboggan party
was given at the Town and Country
club, with the refreshments served at
the home of Alice Fitch. The annual
picnic will also be given in the spring.
The Fine Arts girls have held
many interesting meetings this year.
At the first meeting, in October.
Mary Barlow was elected president;
Clara Eggert, vice-president: Martha
Woodward, secretary ; and Elizabeth
Buckley, treasurer. Clara Eggert
graduated from school in February.
and at a regular meeting of the so-
ciety. Pauline McNear was elected to
fill the vacancy.
The four officers, together with two
other members. Catherine McElle-
strem and Janet Siebold. elected at
the first meeting, formed the execu-
tive committee whose duty is to take
charge of the tryouts for member-
ship.
The underlying purpose of the
Fine Arts Society is to assist in pro-
moting all worth-while activities of
the school and to help to maintain
its ideals.

WORLD-TIMES />
1 he closing of the school year in
June .1924 will mark the encl of the
first term since 1922 that The World
and 1 he Times have been edited by
one staff. It also marks the end of
a successful season for these publica-
tions in a decided literary way.
\\ hat has been true of past vears
is true of this year: it has been
only by the help, guidance, and un-
tiring efforts of Miss Grace N. El-
liott, the faculty adviser, that these
papers have been made a success.
The co-operation and timely assist-
ance of Mr. Marshall is not forgotten
by the staff, which sincerely appre-
ciates his support. There are also
many teachers who have taken a very
loyal stand for both The World and
The Times who will be remembered.
The World again this year was of-
ficially given first place, in competi-
tion with all other high school maga-
zines of the state. At the Central
Interscholastic Press Association
Convention held at Madison. \\ iscon-
sin. in November. The World was
given the high honor of being rated
and recognized by prominent judges.
members of the University of Wis-
consin faculty, and journalists, as one
of the three magazines in the United
States worthy of qualifying in Divi-
sion I. Class A. as one of the best
newspapers in the states.
.Mien Nourse was editor-in-chief
of the World during the fall term
while Carl Christopherson was edi-
tor-in-ch:ef of The Times. Begin-
ning with the December issue of The
World, Phillips Beedon. then asso-
siate editor of The Times, became
editor-in-chief of the World. In Feb-
ruary, at the beginning of the new
term. Phillips Beedon was also made
editor of The Times, thus putting
both publications under one editor.
The new staff appointed was known
as the World-Times Staff.
Forty-eight years ago Central had
a so-called magazine, consisting of
school notes, which was written and
read in the assembly by Miss Mary
Smith and Miss Mary J. Newson.
The first official appearance of the
magazine we know as The World,
then called the High School World,
was in 1885 and consisted of eight
pages containing almost entirely edi-
torials and advertisements.
The Tinies was first published in
the spring of 1921. By 1923 it had
proved so successful and was so well
supported by the students that it was
enlarged to a seven column paper.
This term it has been necessary, for
financial reasons, to decrease the size,
but there is not one whit less quality.

Today we have The World and

and each for one. The staff is fully
aware of its responsibilities and the
dignity of keeping high the honor and
prestige of these two publications.

GIRLS’ ATHLETIC CLUB /<\
Although the Girls' Athletic Club
is but four years old. it has made a
name for itself at Central. It was or-
ganized in 1920 by Sylvia Singer. Isa-
bel! Speer, and Ruth Be.-emer. a
group of girls who were interested in
and realized the necessity of athletics
for girls.
I nder the splendid leadership of
Miss Heyd and Miss Carney, the
club has accomplished many things.
I he girls have been especially in-
terested in swimming, basket ball.
and hiking. Every Thursday at the
Y. M . C. A. the girls meet to receive
instructions in swimming, and the
club boasts many aquatic stars. The
girls also greatly enjov plaving wa-
ter polo.
Basket ball has also been receiving
its share of the girls’ interest.. It is
played in Central’s gymnasium every
Tuesday and four good teams have
been developed, under the supervi-
sion of Miss Tierney. Each has a
color, and the different teams have
played in a tournament. The red
team, of which Margaret Jones is cap-
tain. won the basket ball honors, by
defeating the yellows in a fast game.
the score being 13—12. At a party
given for the reds, each member of
the winning team was given a minia-
ture basket ball. During the past
year, Pearl Bright was elected basket
ball manager. The present team cap-
tains are Anita Poore. Pearl Bright,
Eunice Conrad and Margaret Jones.
Hiking has been an interesting ami
beneficial part of the club’s activities.
In the fall, the girls enjoyed several
hikes, going to Battle Creek and
then feasting on the usual buns, wei-
ners. and marshmallows. X'ot only
the members have enjoyed hiking, but
also th" newcomers to our school.
After school began last fall, all the
girls of the upper classes who were
attending Central for the first time
were the guests at a hike given by the
club, for the purpose of acquainting
them with other girls of the school.
Recently the club adopted a point
svstem. The girl obtaining 350 points
is awarded a red “C.” The points
arc given for basket ball, swimming.
hiking, skating, scholarship, attend-
ance at school, and club meetings.
The trvouts for admittance to the
club arc held every fall, and all girls
interested in athletics, who have nine
credits, are eligible for membership.
'I'he officers of the club are elected
every year. 'I'he present officers are

LATIN CLUB /Jg),
Although the Latin club has been
in existence only three years, it has
already gained a real place among
the other organizations of Central.
1 his club was organized in Novem-
ber, .1921, with a membership of six-
teen Latin enthusiasts, but it has in-
creased its numbers until the present
roll includes sixty members.
The purpose of the club is to cre-
ate a deeper interest in the study of
Latin and to give a broader view ‘of
the culture and civilization of the
ancient Romans. A program meeting
is held each month and this year each
program has been under the direction
of a different Latin teacher and all
have been very entertaining and in-
structive. The November meeting
was tinder the direction of Miss
Baber’s Cicero class who presented
papers on the various phases of social
life in the days of Cicero. A very
pretty pageant presenting the Muses
of the Fine Arts was given in the
Assembly room under the direction
of Miss Ogden and Miss Haigh for
the December meeting. In January,
all of the boys of the club took part
in a Latin play entitled “The Con-
spiracy- of Orgetorix". a dramatiza-
tion of the first four chapters of
Caesar. This play was very ablv di-
rected bv Miss Shaull. The February
meeting was in the nature of an ora-
torical program under the direction
of Mr. McGovern. Selections from
ancient and modern oratory were re-
cited. and the program closed with a
debate on the subject "Resolved,
that ancient oratory is superior to
modern." At the March meeting, the
practical value of I.atin was discussed
and posters along this line were dis-
played by twenty girls. Mr. Melt-
zer’s classes, which had charge of the
April meeting, gave an interesting
musical program and papers on the
life and times of Caesar. The club’s
activities closed with a Roman ban-
quet picnic in May.
Membership of the Latin Club is
restricted to those who have had at
least two terms of Latin and an aver-
age of not less than "C.
The officers of the club this year
are Miriam Schaller, president: Beu-
lah Holland, vice-president, successor
to Louis Schaller who graduated in
January, 1921: Helga Paulsen, sec-
retary-; and Theodore Heger, treas-
urer.
We take this opportunity to thank
Miss Baber, our adviser, and the oth-
er I.atin teachers for their untiring
efforts in behalf of the club.

THE DEBATING CLUB
Many, many years ago, when Cen-
tral was but a promise of what it is
at present, the entire student body
constituted a debating society which
provided material for many an inter-
esting assembly. Obviously, with the
growth of the school, continuance of
the custom became impossible and
the society gradually passed out of
existence.
Xot until the spring of ’22 was the
matter of a debating society again
seriously considered, but since it was
rather too late in the term to take
any definite action, the matter was
dropped until the following fall.
At this time, the Central High
School Debating club was organized
with Miss Thomson as its adviser;
Hjalmar Hove, president ; Alan Ken-
nedy, vice-president; Marie Schaefer,
secretary; and Carl Christopherson,
treasurer. Its aim was to promote
interest and participation in debating.
The present club consists of about
fifty members. Its officers are : Har-
riet Goldberg, president; Sidney
Zneimer. vice-president; Cornelia
Taylor, secretary; and Walton On-
slow, treasurer.
THE MEMBERS ARE:—
Clarence Allen, Lawrence Applebaum, Marion Barnett, Louise Barthelemv, Eugene

W GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB W
1 he Girls and Hoys Glee clubs
were organized first in 1902 as one
club under the capable leadership of
Miss Olive Long. For maiiv rears
the clubs worked together until 1915,
when Miss Florence Dickinson re-
lieved Miss Long of her duties with
the glee clubs, in order that Miss
Long might then devote herself en-
tirely to the art department of this
school. At that time the boys and
girls formed separate clubs. Since
then the Girls' Glee club as a sepa-
rate organization has played a very
important part in the life of Central
high school and has given many
charming entertainments.
In 1917, Miss Maud Lillie took up
the direction of the glee clubs, and
under her efficient leadership many
successful operetas were given, in-
cluding “Princess Chrisanthymuni."
“The Maid and the Middy." and the
opera "Chimes of Xormaudy." Tn
1919. the clubs presented a scene from
the "Mikado" for an assembly, which
proved so popular that it was later
given for The Parent-Teachers as-
sociation.
Tn 1920. the clubs came under the
able guidance of Miss Lillian Mil-
dred Knott, and since then many
good musical assemblies have been
given, besides several evenings per-
formances. Two fine assemblies of
1920 were riven by the Girls' Glee
Club, presenting Grieg's "Peer Gynt
Suite." and Kevin's "A Day in Ven-
ice." During the past two years, the
comic opera. "The Pirates of Pen-
zance." and the operetta. "The Wind-
mills of I lolland." have been given.
Owing to the double sessions, the
glee clubs have not given an eve-
ning performance this year.
At Christmas time, the glee clubs
participated in a lovely assembly
called the “Coming of the King.’"
The music, sung by the clubs. Iloareu
out over the audience from the bal-
cony of the assembly hall, while a
series of tableaux depicting the story
were staged by Miss Hilda Anderson.
The music was planned and directed
by Miss Knott. On the day before
the Christmas holidays, the glee
clubs helped to spread the feeling
of Christmas joy and good cheer
through the school by singing the
well-known carols through the halls.
Last spring the glee clubs present-
ed to room 88 a splendid filing case
for their music. The officers of the
club elected last fall were: President,
Beatrice llutchin; Vice-President,
Ardez Kolar: Secretary. Marguerite
Odendahl: and Treasurer, Mary Bar-
law. Madelyn Kendall, as Vice-Pres-
ident, and Pauline McXear. as Secre-
tary. were elected to fill the places
of Ardez Kolar and Marguerite

beginning of the term.

A BOYS’ GLEE CLUB ®
The Central High School Boys’
Glee club has been active for the last
twenty years of the school's historv.
The club was founded under the
guiding hand of Miss Olive Long
whose memory is cherished by many
Central graduates. Xow it is work-
ing under the leadership of Miss Lil-
lian Mildred Knott.
In recent years, the Boys and Girls'
Glee Clubs have presented many suc-
cessful programs, among them the
comic opera. "The Pirates of Pen-
zance." a novelty program, and the
operetta. "Windmils of Holland.” be-
sides numerous assemblies.
At last Christmas time, the Glee
Clubs tried something more difficult
than before. The selection for the
assembly was "The Coming of the
King.” a cantata written for older
voices with dramatic expression. The
Glee Clubs sang from the balcony.
giving a pleasing and unique effect
to the pageant which was directed by
Miss Anderson. Solos were rendered
bv Kathervn Rasey. Ardez Kolar,
and Mr. T. A. Becker, a friend of
Miss Knott. For the processional
“Xoel" was sung, and “O Come All
Ye Faithful" for the recessional. At
the close of the recessional when all
were out of the balcony a grand
"Amen" was heard.
It has been said that this was the
most beautiful and iim press ive as-
sembly that has been given at Central
in a long time.
Owing to the new schedule in op-
eration this term, it was deemed
wise to dispense with the opera this
year with intentions of beginning
early next semester on something
very good.
In the early spring the Chibs be-
gan studying the operetta. "The Bells
of Beaujolais," for their own pleas-
ure and intertainment. This proved
so interesting that they they decided
to present the first act at a May as-
sembly. This was carried out like an
evening performance with lights, cos-
tumes. and stage settings and was
greatlv enjoyed by the school. Among
the young people who took leading
parts in this musical play were Angus
McDonald. Irene Heuer. Leon Bord-
ncr. Xorman Giere. Mary Barlow.
Wynn Beebe. Marjorie Mellgren. Al-
lene Hazelrigg. Madelvn Kendall.
Carrol Bellis. Russell Ewert. Cath-
erine Prendergast. Edward List, and
Mildred Rogers.
The officers of the Boys' Glee Club
for 1923-1924 season are Harry Tay-
lor. president: William Baker, suc-
ceeded by Russell Ewert. vice-
president: Edward List, treasurer;
and Clarence Eurist. secretary.

DRAMATIC CLUB />Vz
The Dramatic club is one of the
oldest and most active of the clubs at
Cential high school. It was organ-
ized in 1905 under the leadership of
Miss Helen Austin who has contin-
ued to be its director up to the pres-
ent time. It is through Miss Aus-
tin's untiring efforts that the club has
continued to maintain its high stan-
dards and to accomplish all that it
has in the past. The membership of
the club was originally forty, but the
enrollment has increased gradually as
the student body of Central grew in
numbers, until there are now about
sixty members in the club.
The purpose of the club is to pre-
sent a play annually. This year "The
Dragon. by Lady Gregorv, was
chosen by Miss Austin on account of
the possibilities which it offered along
the lines of original costuming and
artistic setting, as well as because of
the fact that many members of the
club were well suited to the charac-
ters of the play.
The finished production came up to
the highest expectations of all. for it
was a success from every standpoint.
and Miss Austin was kept busy for
several days receiving congratula-
tions on her work.
One of the results of the play is
the addition to Central s properties of
an artistic new set. and a number of
beautiful custodies. The property
room is one of the possessions ot
the Dramatic club of which it is just-
ly proud, for not many school clubs
can boast of such an institution. It
was founded in 1921 when the need
of one became imperative because of
the number of costumes which the
club owned. Since then, many cos-
tumes and stage properties have been
added to the collection, until now
their value amounts to several hun-
Ired dollars.
This year the club sponsored a pa-
geant. ‘“East of Sunrise." written by
Frances Bosworth, a former member
of the Dramatic chib, in which many
of the club members took part. The
pageant had been previously given at
the auditorium on Child Health Day.
Although the club does a great deal
of work, the social side of the organ-
ization is not neglected. At the reg-
ular monthly meetings, an entertain-
ment committe always sees that some
form of amusement is provided.
Yearly a costume party and picnic
are given. This year the party was
held at the Hosford home, and there
colonial ladies and gentlemen mingled
with Campbell Kids, gypsies, (buc-
caneers in a spirit of amity which.
when one one thinks of their charac-
ters, is rather unusual.
Officers of the club are elected an-
nually. This year thev are: Allen
Xourse. president : Thelma Cummins.
vice-president: Phyllis Ulmer, secre-
tary; and Beatrice Harris and ITow-
ird Relf, finance committee.

W assembly committee
For many years, the students of
Centra] have been amused and de-
lighted by weekly assemblies.
We have become so accustomed to
these assemblies that we seldom
think of the effort and labor neces-
sary to make them possible.
It is due mainly to the generous
efforts and hard work of the Assem-
bly Committee that the usual routine
is enlivened by these enjoyable inter-
ludes, our assemblies.
Under the direction of Miss Helen
Austin, chairman, the committee
achieved many noteworthy successes.
Among the most beautiful and elab-
orate was the Columbus assembly.
A series of very vivid and inspiring
tableaux were presented. Each de-
picted some memorable historical
event. The lighting and stage set-
tings were especially attractive. Out-
side critics who were present declar-
ed that the presentation would have
done credit to professionals.
Scenes from the play, “Sherwood.”
by Alfred Noyes, formed another de-
lightful assembly. Thelma Cummins
and Allen Nourse took the leading
roles. They and the remainder of
the cast adequately demonstrated
that thorough training which is so
characteristic of Miss Austin’s suc-
cesses.
The Christmas Assembly, under
the direction of Miss Hilda Ander-
son and Miss Edith Hall, attracted
wide attention. It consisted of a se-
ries of tableaux and pantomime por-
traving Christ's Nativity. The Glee
clubs, led by Miss Knott, were seat-
ed in the balcony and the strains of
Christmas hymns floated out over the
hall.
Many other programs were given,
each one appropriate to the various
holidays. With the willing co-oper-
atios of the student organizations,
cross sections of Central life were
portrayed.

forts in their behalf.
STAGE FORCE
The stage force at Central high
school is a group of boys whose busi-
ness it is to take charge of the stage
and handle its equipment for plays
or assemblies.
Of course the fun connected with
the work repays for the hours of
labor put in back-stage. The force
has a private room which is partly
filled with chairs, tables, benches,
electrical equipment, and other stage
properties, but which has enough
room left for the force. All stage
force conferences take place in this
room behind a locked door. Every
rear the names of the members of
:he force are painted somewhere on
die wall of either this room or the
stage itself. At present there is hard-
ly a vacant spot on the walls. Even
the ceiling has names painted artis-
tically on it.
The 1921 stage force consists of:
lack Scanlon, manager: Richard San-
ders. assistant manager: Sterling
Price, chief electrician: Sumner Bag-
ley, assistant electrician: Thomas
Rishworth. property man: Gurdon
Jones. Lionel Gruber. Richard Mul-
len. Donald Knauft. and Xeil Mc-
Ginnis: stage hands. Jack Scanlon
and Sterling Price found it necessary
to resign because of other school ac-
tivities. Richard Sanders was then
chosen manager and Sumner Bagley.
chief electrician.

■ ‘'THE DRAGON” ZfM
Once again, the Central High Dra-
matic chib proved itself worthy of
the admiration and the high place
which it occupies in the minds of
Central students. The delightful
presentation of “The Dragon" a
three act play by Lady Gregory, was
one more success of which the club
and the school are justly proud.
“ I he Dragon." a mythological ro-
mance of Old Ireland, deals witn
those traditions of the supernatural
which are so attractive to us. It is a
farcical representation of the troubles
of kings and queens. The play in its
presentation lost none of those sub-
tleties of humor which are so charac-
teristic of Lady Gregory.
'I'lie plot centers about the proph-
ecy of the astrologer, Finian. that up-
on the Princess Xuala’s eighteenth
birthday, a dragon would come to de-
vour her. Much to the horror and
the consternation of the entire court.
it is discovered that, due to some mis-
calculation of time, the Dragon is
about to proceed on his horrible jour-
ney on what everyone considers the
Princess' seventeenth birthday. The
kiirn-. who has recently married his
second wife, a woman of a very de-
termined and shrewish character, is
trying hard to keep this matter of
the prophecy from his wife, the Prin-
cess, and her suitors. At last the
King, desperate because the Princess
continues to reject her many suitois
and also ill-natured because of his
wife's continual nagging as to his
diet, finally declares that the Princess
must accept as her husband the first
man who enters the palace. 'I'hi>
man is a cook, the King of Sorcha in
disguise. He is accepted as cook in
place of the one who was driven away
on account of the Queen's love of
meddling. He endears himself to the
King because of his magic means of
concocting delicious meals. When
he makes his plea for the hand of the
King's daughter, however, the King
and Queen are very displeased. The
bogus King of Sorcha. who is in re-
ality but Taig, the tailor, has arrived,
and the Queen plans for a hastv mar-
riage between hi'in and the Princess
thinking that the Dragon will never
dare to harm a King's wife. In the
midst of the courting, a messenger
arrives with news that the Dragon is
approaching. All is tumult and con-
fusion in the palace. Finally, the
Prince of the Marshes, a disappointed
suitor of the Princess, goes out to
fight the Dragon. The others follow
suit, with the exception of the bogus
King who hides in the bushes. The
cook, the real King of Sorcha. finally
conquers the Dragon but is reported
slain in the terrible battle. The Prin-
cess. who has come to love him. dies
from the shock. The plays ends hap-
pily. however, when the King of Sor-
cha returns in splendor, the rumor of
his death having been false, and the
Prince of Marshes, despite the pro-
testations of his two aunts, gives his
leaf of life in order that the Princess
might again live.
The cast was well chosen and well
balanced. The results of Miss Aus-

Un's fine training were evidenced in
the x oices and the acting.
Mona Medcalf as the Princess and
Allen Xourse as the King of Sorcna
played the leads with a spirit and
dash that endeared them to the audi-
ence at the very beginning. Their
voices were especially attractive. Al-
len Xourse displayed a depth of feel-
ing not often found in high school
actors.
Marion Henry as the Queen and
Hartwell W ilkerson as the King did
exceptionally fine work, both having-
difficult parts.
Beatrice Harris as the X'urse. Har-
vey Brown as the Prince of the
Marshes, and Allen Tyler as Taig the
Tailor showed a very thorough
knowledge of their parts.
The director and the entire cast in-
deed merited the approval they re-
ceived.
Great credit is also due Miss Hilda
Anderson and Miss Edith Hall and
her student helpers.
The success of the production is
best illustrated by the following ex-
tract from a letter received by Miss
Austin from Mr. John Seaman Garns
of the MacPhail School of Music,
Minneapolis ;
"’My dear Miss Austin :—

AA-_ HISTORY OF ATHLETES AM
It is >aid that al] good things have
small beginnings. This saying holds
true in regard to athletics at Central.
1'he first branch of athletics entered
by this school was baseball. Ameri-
cas national game. It was started
in 1885 when a league was formed
consisting of Twin City schools and
colleges. Some of the schools in-
cluded in the league were: Central.
University of Minnesota, and Macal-
ester. From this small start in base-
ball. Central has gained a reputation
for putting excellent nines on the
field to offer strong competition to all
comers.
Football was the next sport to be
taken up. It came a year after
baseball, in 1886. At first, the sport
seemed doomed to failure because of
the lack of support and enthusiasm.
During the first season of the game.
Central played college teams, and
even independent football aggrega-
tions. However, rides were formu-
lated which changed these conditions
and started the eligibility rules. At
the present time, football is the best
supported of all forms of athletics at
Central.
Track next entered into the athlet-
ic curriculum of the school. 1 his
third branch of athletics was started
in the spring of 1891. I he early days
of this sport saw many varied events
which are not seen in the modern
track contests. Besides the events
we have now. there were bicycle.
pony, wheel barrow. and three legged
races, tug of war. and wrestling. In
fact, we would have a hard time rec-
ognizing a track meet as such if it
embraced all the events mentioned.
Since its institution at Central in
1900. hockey has had to fight for its
existence. This has been chiefly due
to the fact that it comes during the
cold season, and also that it must
compete with basketball. However,
Central has won more hockey cham-
pionships than all the other Twin
City high schools combined, and won
the Twin City title more times than
an\ other school in the Twin Cities.
The next sport to come into promi-
nence at Central was basketball which
arrived in 1902. Central has put
fighting teams into the field every
year, and one year a team coached
oy Alvin Herrmann completed a sea-
son without being defeated. During
Mr. Buser's regime, we annexed the
Citv championships two times out of
a possible three.
Although swimming is one of Cen-
tral's newest sports, it is one of the
strongest branches of athletics at
school. Through the courtesy of the
St. I’aul Athletic dub which gave
us the use of its pool, the first team
was organized in 1919. Since that
lime. Central has always been a
strong contender for the Twin City
swimming title.
This is the brief story of the his-
tory and growth of athletics at Cen-
tral since their beginning in 1885.

ALVIN G. HERRMANN, ’02
It is seldom that the life of a man is as closely intertwined
with the life of a school as Alvin G. Herrmann's was with
that of Central high school. From 1899 to 1918, he was in-
timately connected with Central athletics, first as player, then
as coach, and always as loyal supporter.
His connection with Central high school began in 1899,
when he played left half-back on the football team. In 1 900
and 1901, he played tackle and won positions on both the
All City and the All Twin City teams., After two years in the
College of engineering at the University of Minnesota, he re-
turned, in 1904, as athletic coach, and Central began those
memorable years of athletic ascendency of which many of its
alumni still boast.
In 1 906, the Interscholastic Track Championship was won
by Central’s Herrmann-coached track team. Another exceed-
ingly important episode in the athletic history of the school
occurred in the season of 1908 and 1909, when the basketball

team, under Mr. Herrmann s direction, met no defeats what-
ever.,
The next three years found the school without Mr. Herr-
mann, but he returned in 1912 to develop a football team that
defeated Mechanic Arts in the first Mechanic-Central game for
a'u r'^ea4-S' In ^at year, 1912, six of the eleven men on the
City Team were wearers of the Red and Black, coached by
Alvin Herrmann.
After several extremely sucessful years as Central high
school athletic coach, he left the position that he had so splen-
didly filled to enter business. This was in June, 1917, but
coaches were scarce in 1918, and Mr. Herrmann left his busi-
ness to fill the breach.
A Saint Paul paper has called him ' the Hurry Up Yost
of the Saint Paul high schools and "the most successful coach
any Saint Paul hgh school or any school in Minnesota has had
in many years.”
But personal success was not the chief object of his work
at Central. He saw something finer and more to be valued in
the highest ideals of sportsmanship and fair play. Into the
men that he drilled, he instilled those splendid ideals and
that intense school loyalty that were his. He is undoubtedly
the most admirable figure in the annals of Central high school
athletics.
There is a page in Central’s history that belongs to Alvin
G. Herrmann, and that page is unmarred by blots or smears.
He gave to Central the finest things that a man can give; he
possessed the finest qualities that a man can possess. To us,
he is immortal.
HERRMANN TROPHIES
A monument to the memory of Alvin G. Herrmann that
will be more powerful in its influence and farther reaching in
its effects than a granite statue or bronze tablet could possibly
be has been planned by his former friends and classmates.
This memorial will consist of a series of loving cups, a large
cup to be played for by the high schools of the city and to be
awarded every year to the school with the best record in St.
Paul interscholastic athletics, and smaller cups, one to be pre-
sented each year as the personal property of the Central athlete
who is the truest "Herrmann man".
The first cup is for all the public high schools of the city,
but the second is solely for Central.
It is fitting that such a means of honoring the memory of
Xlvin Herrmann should be selected, for those trophies will,
as far as inanimate things can. help to perpetuate the principles
for which Mr. Herrmann stood; they will be in a small way,
the inspiration to Central athletes that Mr. Herrmann himself
was. .
It is impossible that anything could take Mr. Herrmann s
place in Central athletics, but if the cups, in the smallest de-
gree, will represent the ideals of Alvin Herrmann to the men
playing on Central teams, their object will have been achieved.

THE COACHES An
When Al Buser left the school to
enter business and Jack McCallum
took his place, Central had estab-
lished a strong athletic reputation for
herself, and Mr. McCallum has held
that reputation secure.
The pep and the knowledge of foot-
ball that Mr. McCallum drilled into
the boys was noticeable throughout
the entire season. The fruit of his
efforts was fully revealed in the un-
forgettable Mechanics game last fall.
However, Mr. McCallum’s capabil-
ities are not exhausted by the ability
to form a championship football
squad as track is another sport in
which he is greatly interested.
It is impossible for us to adequate-
ly express our appreciation of Mr.
McCallum, and we hope he may fully
feel the place he holds in our estima-
tion.
We take this opportunity to wel-
come Mr. Blume into the faculty and
the coaching staff. As assistant coach.
he has rounded out his first year with
us. In the fall, he ably seconded Mr.
McCallum as football mentor. He
:urned out a scrapping basketball team
in the winter months and this spring
he is coaching the baseball team.
Mr. Blume himself has an enviable
athletic record behind him and as
coach at Central he has proved him-
self the proper man to possess such
a record.
His abilities, like Mr. McCallum's.
extend beyond the coaching line, and
every afternoon in room thirty-one
he instructs freshmen in geography.
We are proud to be able to call Mr.
Idume a member of our faculty and
piouder to be able to call him our
coach.

What a treat it was to sit in the
stands at the football games, and
watch and chuckle at the amusing
and derisive motions used by the
cheerleaders for the benefit of the op-
ponents! The long, sweeping strokes
which signified that the locomotive
veil was being extracted from our
lungs brought an involntary lump in
our throats as we realized too late
that we had swallowed our gum.
W’e pleasantly recollect the many
times that Bill and Theophil squat-
ted. grinned, and began to give the
enemy the axe. both in voice and in

How can we forget the momentous
davs preceding the classic clash be-

CAPTAIN JACK MEISEX
The 1923 football season started
with a bang. Five letter men, Meisen.
Falk, Gerst, Johnson, and Stevens,
formed the nucleus of the team.
Others who aided in forming a cham-
pionship aggregation were Aldous.
Burch. Heath. Callender, McDonald,
Druck. Van Straaten, Pelton. Kogi.
and Blackwood.
Running true to dope. Central
pushed Humboldt around the field to
the tune of 45 to 0. The team as a
whole showed unusual strength for
its first game. Johnson and Gerst
were the main-stays of the line, while
Captain Meisen and Falk were the
stellar performers in the backfield.
Central did not have the easy time
with Johnson that she did with Hum-
boldt. Johnson put a team in the field
that made Central put forth all she
•Ml
had to come out at the long end of
a 13 to 8 count, '['he high-lights of
the game were two beautiful drop-
kicks by Kaufman and a 35 yard run
made by Gerst after he had recov-
ered a fumble. Falk saved the day
for Central once by giving Johnson
two points on a safety and putting
the ball in a less dangerous position.
The Red and Black took Pillsbury
into camp on the following Friday,
but in doing so. lost the services of
Falk and Gerst for the remainder of
the season. Falk suffered a dislo-
cated arm, while Gerst received two
broken ribs. Falk. Meisen. Aldous,
and Gerst were stars of the encoun-
ter.
Central had two weeks in which to
prepare for the Mechanics game and
both teams entered the fray in their
best form. The teams seemed evenly
matched for the first ten minutes.
Mechanics using a passing attack
while Central used a running offen-
sive. Mechanics had their lone
chance to score when a 30 yard pass
was completed. A pass lost ten
yards and a line plunge failed. “Bus"
Dunn placed a beautiful drop-kick
between the up-rights for their ione
score as the quarter ended.
The second quarter opened with
the ball on Central’s 35 yard line. On
a fake kick. Johnson got away on a
twenty-yard run. Here Central was
stopped, and the play see-sawed un-
til Johnson intercepted a Trainer
pass and ran to Central's 30 yard
line. Mechanics received a penalty.
which helped Central place the ball
in mid-field. Burch threw a 40 yard
pass to Callender who received the
ball on Mechanics 10 yard line and
ran for a touchdown. Meisen kicked
goal. Mechanics, receiving the ball
on the kick-off. worked the ball to
Central's 31 yard line where she lost
it on downs. Central, in turn, lost
the ball on downs on her own -17
yard line. The Trainers, with the aid
of two passes, placed the ball on
Central's 20 yard line only to lose it
there. Johnson and Burch brought
the ball out of danger as the half
ended.
At the start of the third quarter.
Central placed the ball on the Train-
er s 15 yard line, but she was pena-
lized. and Mechanics was placed out
of danger. Mechanics then took the
ball to Central's 20 yard line, but a
penalty set them back. Dunn failed
to make a field goal. Central worked
the ball to the center of the field, and
a long pass. Burch to Callender, was
attempted. Garrett interferred with
Callender, and Central received the
ball on Mechanic's 5 yard line. John-

son made a touchdown, and Meisen
kicked goal. The play see-sawed in
the center of the field as the third
quarter ended.
The fourth quarter was the most
exciting period of the game. Me-
chanics completed a 25 yard pass.
but lost 10 yards on the next two
plays. Burch intercepted a Trainer
pass, and after a series of unsuccess-
ful passes Central kicked. Mechanics
took the ball on her 31 yard line, but
was held for no gain. Burch and
Johnson both made large gains
around end. Two passes were in-
complete, and Central punted, but
was penalized 15 yards. Central took
the ball again in mid-field, and a pass
netted 25 yards. The Trainer line
took an unexpected brace, but on the
fourth down Meisen put a place kick
between the posts. Just before the
whistle. Meisen intercepted a Me-
chanics’ pass and ran 30 yards for a
touchdown, lie kicked goal just, as
the game ended.
One more game was scheduled for
the city champions with St. Cloud.
Central commenced the battle minus
the services of Falk. Stevens. Gerst.
and Aldous. The absence of these
players was noticeable throughout
the entire game. Central went down
before the fast running attack of the
"Tech" boys. Meisen was the star
of the game for Central, standing out
both on offense and defense. Heath
showed up well in the line.
St. Cloud had a perfectly balanced
team, and the backfield had marvel-
ous interference.
Meisen. Falk, Aldous. Johnson, and
Gerst were placed on the All-City
team at the end of the season.
Central had a brilliant season, and
the work of Mr. McCallum and Mr.
Blume cannot be praised too highly.
CAPTAIN GRANT SANBISON
Once again the Twin .City high
school Hockey Championship has
come to Central. After last season,
when Mechanics won the title from
Central, the Red and Black puck
chasers staged a come back.
In the first game, with Johnson,
the Central pucksters completely out-
classed their foes, winning 4 to 0.
Falk proved to be the star of the
game by his spectacular lone rushes
down the ice with the puck.
The following week, Humboldt fell
victim to the superior playing of the
Central team, featured by the work
of Falk. Neil Tilton, and Leo Tilton.
In the Central - Trainer hockey
game, which featured the closing of
the first round. Central went into the
lead for the first half of the race by
virtue of a victory.
Another victory over Johnson
opened the second round. This game
was won only after a hard struggle
with the Maroon and White sextet.
Captain Sandison. the Tilton broth-
ers, and Carl Wilcken were working
in top form, but this game also found
Jack Meisen and Willard Falk, who
were the mainstays of the team in
the opening round, missing. It was
Falk's dashing performance on the of-
fense, and Meisen's stellar work on
the defense that made the team in-
vincible in the first three games. The
Johnson fray also found Captain San-
dison back in position as center.
Flushed with four consecutive vic-
tories. the Central team met its first
defeat of the season in the encounter
with Humboldt. The final score in
this contest was 2 to 1. Only the
brilliant work of Romnes on both the
offense and defense prevented the
Tilton brothers and Sandison from ed him. The winning goal was
pushing the winning markers into the thr.y^ past Annen in the overtime
Humboldt net. period by Leo Tilton unassisted for
Faced with the possibility of hav-
ing only a tie for first place through
a defeat by Mechanics, the Red and
Black pucksters gave their best ex-
hibition of hockey in the final city
game. Carl Wilcken played the finest
game of his career in this contest,
stopping many shots that seemed to
be marked for goals. Neil Tilton and
Ted Howell on the defense showed
fine form as did Don Foster. Easton
Senckler. and Bill Pederson. On the
offensive. Leo Tilton was the out-
standing Central star, while Sandison
and Clarence Wilcken ably support-
a 2 to 1 victory and the City Cham-
pionship for Central.
One more contest faced the team.
West, of Minneapolis was met at the
Coliseum for the Twin City title.
Although the "dope" favored the vis-
itors. Central outclassed them with a
■1 to 1 victory to close a successful
season.
Much credit is due to Mr. Varner
and Arthur Brandt who. as advisor
and manager, shouldered the burdens
and the joys of the hockey team
throughout the season.
CAPTAIN CLARK JOHNSON
It was utterly impossible for Cen-
tral to annex all the championships
of the year, but the basketball team
never held a game lost until the final
whistle.
At the first call, about sixty boys
reported for the class teams and
from these the school squad was
chosen. Clark Johnson was the only
letter man back, but Turner. Heath,
Pelton, Golden, Druck. Rice, Myers.
and Nelson helped to put a strong
team in the running. After a suc-
cessful practice season, Mr. Blume
had a fairly smooth working aggre-
gation.
The first game with Cetin was a
nip and tuck mix from the start. The
lead was constantly changing until
in the final minute when Central
caged two long shots, and cinched
the contest. Clark Johnson and Ev-
erett Myers bore the brunt of the of-
fensive work, while Heath stood out
at guard.
The first game of the high school
league was with Johnson. Johnson
took the lead at the start of the game.
and at no time were they seriously
threatened. Clark Johnson. Druck.
and Heath were the stars in defeat.
The guarding of Druck and Heath
helped greatly in keeping the score
down.
The next game was with Hum-
boldt. Neither of the teams wanted
to take the cellar position, and both
of them were fighting for a victory.
Central fought hardest. Even at that,
the game was forced to two extra
periods in order to get a result. The
game was a thriller as neither team
was able to hold the lead. Clark
Johnson was the outstanding offen-
sive player: both teams put up an ex-
cellent defense.
Central went down to defeat before
Mechanics in a see-saw battle that
kept the fans in anxiety. The lead
shifted constantly, and two minutes
before the final whistle the score was
tied, but the Trainers sank two long
baskets for a four point lead as the
whistle blew. The team, as a whole,
plaved excellent basketball in this
fray.
The Red and Black squad lost the
second game to Cretin by a very close
score. A basket and a free throw
made in the final minute put Cretin
in the lead.
The first game of the second-round
was with Johnson. Central tried
hard to avenge the defeat of the first
contest, but again the uncanny abil-
ity of Kaufman and Goldstein, of
Johnson, to locate the basket was
noticeable. Clark Johnson was the
main cog in the Red and Black line-
up. getting a basket and a free throw.
Central slipped into fourth place
when they lost to Humboldt. It was
the ability of Abramovitz. of Hum-
boldt. to slip the ball through the
loop that had a great deal to do with
the defeat.
Central dropped the last game of
the season to the Trainers on their
floor. The contest was hard fought.
and it was only superior shooting
that enabled Mechanics to come out
victorious.
Clark Johnson, captain of the
team and one of the best forwards hi
the city, was awarded a forward posi-
tion on the All-City team.
The year of Nineteen Twenty Four
brought to Central, a City Swimming
Championship. Captain Stirling
Price, with his crew of capable nata-
:ors made an enviable showing. Cap-
tain Price worked hard all the season.
and in so doing developed a cham-
pionship team. Too much cannot be
said of the most excellent showing of
“Bud" Osborn. ■ Beside his breast-
stroke event, he swam, also, in most
of the relays and in some of the back-
stroke races.
Eurist and Dixon, our two back-
stroke mainstays, defeated more than
one man and showed their true colors
in every meet. Al Tyler possessed a
pretty stroke but seemed never to
make a good start. Pud Morton.
George Thane. Ed Abbott, and
Pill Manstein were regulars on the
squad. Morton deserves much credit
for his work in the 200 yard swim.
The loss of Chappell to the team
dealt a decided blow to the diving
and backstroke departments. Chap-
pell took first rights along last year
in both events. Bagley and Scullcn
both worked hard in the diving this
year but failed to meet the competi-
tion. Plunging was also a weak spot
in the team, and seldom did the Cen-
tral men score high in this event.
'1 he highlight of the season was
reached when six of Central’s men
came through for all citv honors.
The following men were chosen:
Price (Cap’t). free style: Osborn,
breaststroke; Manstein, free style;
B. Morton. 200 yard: O. Morton,
plunge; Dixon, backstroke. Price
was chosen captain because of his
coaching ability.

(Wi, track /<?.
With a number of veterans back,
and numerous candidates out. there
are many indications of a successful
season for the track team.
In order to uncover good material
for the team, an indoor class meet
was held eary in March. The sopho-
mores annexed the meet by a large
score, the juniors taking the remain-
ing points.
A meet was held with Edison of
Minneapolis, in which Central over-
whelmingly defeated the visitors by
a score of 71 to 6. 'I'he Central stars
were Marcus Lewis, a real find ac-
cording to Mr. McCallum. Joe Mark,
Art Brandt, Druck. and Captain Gol-
den.
Out to avenge themselves for last
year’s defeat at the hands of North
High, the Red and Black team took
the Mill City team into camp by cor-
alling 59 points to North's 6. The
luminaries for Central were Captain
Golden. Brandt, and Lewis. Brandt
took three seconds, Golden took one
first, and Lewis carried off two firsts
and a third.
At present Central is very strong
in track events, but the field events
will need new material to insure a
well rounded championship team.
Although the outdoor work has
just commenced, it is expected that
the team under Mr. McCallum’s
coaching will perform as well in the
outdoor meets as it did in the pre-
season indoor contests.
BASEBALL
CAPTAIN JIM McKENDKICK
Although it is too early to predict
a championship nine for Central this
season, it is not improbable that the
end of the season will find the Red
and Black team the city champions.
Captain Jim McKendrick and
Benny Green, veterans of last year,
are back to form the nucleus of the
team. McKendrick will be remem-
bered as the leading southpaw pitcher
in the high schools last season, while
Green will again capture tlies in the
outfield.
Among the seventy untried candi-
dates trying out are Rice. Kuhfeld,
Borjeis, Sandison, |oe Mark, Pelton.
Dixon, Stolberg. and Burch. Burch.
Stolberg. and Holman are all work-
w ®
ing hard to draw the assignment as
a partner of Jim McKendrick on the
mound. Grant Sandison. Joe Mark,
and Howard Dixon are taking turns
receiving the slants of the hard work-
ing pitchers.
The candidates for the various field
positions are Rice. Hilton, Pelton,
Betz. Edwards. Borjeis. and Woos-
ter. With such talent, the infield and
outfield should have no superior in
the high schools.
This season finds the team direct-
ed by our newest coach. Mr. Blume.
Mr. Pratt has taken over the burdens
of the faculty manager of baseball,
while Oscar Oftelie is assisting him
as student manager.
JOL_______ n
TENNIS
. It is because the sport of tennis
comes so near vacation that we hear
so little about it. Nevertheless, the
season of 1923 brought to Central
the Citv Tennis Championship. W ith
such men as Harold Sommers. Bob
Bethke. Hans Hoff, and Adolph Betz.
and a capable student manager. Mel-
vin Levy, the team just couklnt' help
themselves. They ran up against
only one team that beat them, and
that was Shattuck. St. Paul Acad-
emv. Concordia, St. Thomas, and
even Mechanic Arts all were hum-
bled by the Red and Black's racquet
wielders.
When this annual is published, the
1924 tennis season will be going full
blast. On the team will probably be
two veterans of last year. Adolph
Betz and Plans Hoff. Roy Kearton,
who failed by a small margin to cop
a “C" last season, but who showed up
well nevertheless, will be back again
this year to try his skill. With these
three men back in line. Central may
look toward another successful sea-
son and another citv title.
Central, being an up-to-date school,.
has added another sport to its athletic
curriculum, golf. Although the sport
is not officially a form of athletics at
school, it is nevertheless growing rap-
idly with its adherents. The much
maligned and discussed game has
found a firm lodging at Central with
a team of five enthusiastic follow-
ers of the elusive white pill. The
boys upholding this fine Scotch pas-
time arc captain Hubert Tierney,
Frank Siefert. William MacDonald,
Conrad Rice, and Ernest Lindgren.
Mr. Berg, who swings a mean club
himself, is coaching these lads in the
fine points of the game.
The team has already played sev-
eral matches with Minneapolis high
schools. Central of Minneapolis was
defeated by the Red and Black golf-
ers. while South high later defeated
the boys by thirteen strokes.
Matches for the future have been
arranged with Mechanics. Johnson.
Edison, Roosevelt, and Minneapolis
Central.
With this promising beginning, it
is hoped the near future will find
golf an official form of athletics at
Central.

ATHLETIC BOARD OF CONTROL /<W
The past four years have seen a
revival of athletics that has accom-
plished two great things. It has
aroused the enthusiasm for sports
which is inherent in every American.
and it has brought many champion-
ships to the school.
in order to successfully promote
and, at the same time, control athlet-
ics here, the Athletic Hoard of Con-
trol has been found necessary. 'I he
work of this board has made sports
popular and financially sound.
The board is composed of members
of the faculty who are interested in
the welfare of athletics in the school.
The present members are: Messrs.
Rusterholtz. Cooley. Berg. Schwabe.
Harp. Pratt. Varner, Marshall, and
Meier. Mr. Cooley is president and
is faculty manager of basketball.
Swimming is in charge of Mr. Berg.
who is also vice-president of the
board. Mr. Rusterholtz is the secre-
tary, and is football and tennis fac-
ulty manager, as well as purchasing
agent. Mr. Schwabe is treasurer.
The other faculty managers of sports
are: Mr. Pratt, baseball. Mr. Warner.
hockey. Mr. Harp, track, and Mr.
Berg, swimming.
The coveted “C's” are awarded by
the board to those who participate
in athletics and to the student man-
ager of the various sports. The win-
ners of the “C” must maintain a good
standing in all studies, and conduct
themselves as Central students
should-

B
Lionel Strongfort Wherry nimbly swung to the lower branches
of a gigantic lilac tree in the dense jungles of Como, and was soon
standing on the ground clad only in his overalls, with his kniie and
toothbrush swinging freely at his sinewy side. He had once more
returned to the primitive, and he swelled his magnificent chest to his
full height of seven feet. He was hungry, and his well polished fangs
were craving an ice cream cone or a coney island red hot. After sniff-
ing vaguely around for a short time, he fell to browsing in a nearby
patch of cauliflower. Presently the man-beast paused, his sensitive
nostrils dilating as he sniffed the odor of French pastry being wafted
on the cool evening breeze. With the swiftness of a cat he sprang
into the lower branches of a tree and made away toward the west,
stopping at frequent intervals to nurse tenderly a stubbed toe. He
stopped at the edge of a small clearing, and made a long nose at Goro,
the moon. The prey he was seeking was a huge tabby cat, on whom
he intended making a fat meal. The cat, although a powerful beast,
was caught unawares and was borne to the ground under the onslaught
of the manbeast. Although she screeched loud protest, she was soon
subdued to a lifeless heap by a series of toe-holds and head scissors.
Lionel got up, put one foot on the body of his kill and gave forth the
ghastly victory cry of the great bull apes of the tribe of Kerchak. Pick-
ing up the mangled carcass of the great carnivora he threw it across
his index finger and swung into the lofty branches of a tree to feast
his fill. But he had not reckoned on the mate who had watched the
entire killing from a reserved seat in the grandstand. The cat, gnash-
ing its one good tooth, leaped on Lionel s back, and the two oF them
went hurtling down, down through leafy heights to land with a crash
beside the bed.

Disappearance of Financier

Jail Jumper Jugged
Mendota, Minn.—
Howard Relf, prominent financier of
Mendota, has mysteriously disappeared.
He was last seen buying a green necktie
on the night of March 16. All of his
favourite haunts have been searched and
his friends carefully questioned. Detec-
tive Everett Myers, who is working on
the case, fears that Mr. Relf has been
murdered. He gave the following deduc-
tions to the representative of the press,
Rose Carroll.
“1 am inclined to believe that Relf has
been murdered because it is a well-known
fact that he is a Mah Jongg fiend and
almost invariably wins. This is a very
plausible reason for his being murdered.
Second, he is very fond of debating. And
third, Oscar Willius, a former friend of
his, has been heard expressing dire
threats against Relf after the victim’s use
of a lurid spot-light on the night of De-
cember 14. But the most significant fact,
in my estimation, is the disappearance of
Harvey Brown at about the same time.”

OUR POLICY
As this issue of The Universe goes to
press, our policy is fixed firmly in our
editorial mind. It is as unchangeable as
a red mark or a five dollar bill on a street
car.
We are firmly in favor of the Einstein
theory.
We believe thoroughly that all members
of the younger generation should go to
the dogs to satisfy the older generation.
We know that everybody is wrong but
us.
We admit that accuracy in a newspaper
is subordinate to interest.
We know we’re good.
ites and envy of rival schools originated;
there some of the most entrancing of love
scenes were enacted; the most thrilling
dates were made. And they would de-
prive the future generations of this so-
lace!
Where now can the humorist go when
he is requested to leave class? How can
the briliant journalists find a place where
the notorious ones of Central assemble as
well as in the office? No more can the
super man gaze longingly into the eyes of
his fellow-mourner!
The Mourner’s Benell was presented to
the school by a group of departing chas-
tened ones, intended as a punishment.
It failed its purpose lamentably and soon
became the gathering place of the elite.
Only those who had been truly original
were admitted to a place on its leather
seat. In later years the strict require-
ments deteriorated, and finally dis-
appeared.
On these principles THE UNIVERSE
has been founded and perpetrated. On
these iprinciples we bravely face the

FAMOUS INSTITUTION ABOLISHED
The Old oaken bench, known to poster-
ity by the touching title of Mourner’s
Bench, has finally become a feature of the
past. As an honoured institution, the
pupils of Central mourn its removal sin-
cerely; it was the most efficient means of
dismissing a trying class ever found. There
were composed most of the stories and
poems that thrilled the readers of the
“World"; there most of the wit and humor
that was the delight and pride of Central-
Up to a certain period of my life I had

Stage and Music
The operatic season opened with a dull
thud last night at the Whatziss Opera
House. In the title role of “Spaghetti, ’
the well-known opera by Neil Tilton,
Madam Wherry gave the best perform-
ance of her career. She was particularly
good in the Areas of the evening. tr2,
when she hit a high note for three basses
and tied the game.
Herr Luke Clancy displayed a powerful
voice in the part of "Limiburger?’ It
showed up particularly strong in the duet
“Onions," with Mille. Luella Bernier,
whom he succeeded in completely drown-
ing out.
The death scene between Madame
Wherry, as “La Balina Spaghetti,” and
Herr Clancy was handled with consumate
skill and delicacy. This is the scene, you
will recall, where the youthful lover sings
college songs beneath the window of La-
Palina’s furnished room, and she accident-
ally drops a can of salmon on his head,
killing him instantly. Grieved at what
she has done, she climbs down the fire
escape singing “Die Wacht’ am Rhine”
and perishes of starvation in the gutter.
On the whole, the opera was worth see-
ing if one had passes.

CHAMPIONSHIP CHANGES MITTS
(By Associated Mess.)
At Madison Tea Garden, last night,
“Battling Kid” Falk defeated "Gashouse
Ike” Stolberg in the second round of their
scheduled thirteen round bout when Stol-
berg refused to continue the discussion
because his feelings were hurt. This was
the first boat sponsired by “The Marie
Schaefer Association for the Uplift of
Boxing, Wrestling, and Dominoes.”
From a financial standpoint, the bout
was eminently successful, the gate re-
ceipts being three safety pins, a cough
drop, two slugs, and a teething ring.
“Battling Kid" Falk entered the ring at
9:S3 P. M. with his seconds and a pail
of mouth wash. “Gashouse Ike” Stolberg
followed in an hour and a quarter, accom-
panited by Theodore Heger at the piano.
His equipment was an atomizer and a
copy of voice exercises. After announcer
Rose Garvey had done her stuff. Referee
Richard Sanders called the fighters to the
center of the ring and presented each
with an engraved copy of the rules. The
fighters then kissed each other tenderly
and retired to their corners.
At the bell both rushed from their re-
spective dugouts and met in the center of
the ring where Referee Sanders formally
introduced them to each other. The
"Battling Kid’ led with a nasty remark
about “Gashouse Ike's" trunks. “Ike"
countered with a pan from Shakespeare.
They mixed it fiercely in the center of
the ring until “Gashouse Ike" ran out of
breath. “Ike" returned with a cuttingly
caustic comment about his oponent’s ap-
pearance and refused to apoligize. Falk
kicked “Gashouse” in the shins as the
round ended.
Both scrappers got out their com-
pacts and worked feverishly between
rounds while their seconds matched pen-
nies with the referee.
The “Kid" opened the second round by
creeping stealthily upon the sleeping
“Ike” and biting him fiercely on
the ear. "Gashouse” awoke and threw his
atomizer at his opponent, but his aim was
bad. At this point, the well-known aesthe-
tic and Grecian toe dancer, Hurley Warm-
ing, clambered through the ropes and
threatened to leave the Gardens if the
brutality went on. Both fighters prompt-
ly united in throwing him from the ring.
"Gashouse” Stolberg staggered Falk with
a pun about socks. Falk came back with
a Pat and Mike story, but Stolberg failed
to see the point. The “Battier" folowed
up by whispering something softly in
‘Gashouse Ike’s” cauliflower ear. upon
which “Gashouse" promptly sat down and
cried as if his little heart would break,
refusing to continue. The fight was there-
upon stopped as Referee Sanders had a
date with the announcer.

This is without a doubt the great-
est novel that Grane Bray has ever
written. ■ It can't be judged as one
would judge an ordinary novel. lor
the “Two-Bun Man” is decidedly not
an ordinary novel. It is as superior
to such tawdry tales as “Aliens,”
“Typhoon,” “Sanine,” and “Youth,”
as Maxfield Parrish is superior to Ma-
net. Degas, Van Gogh, and Picasso.
It will be regarded as a classic for-
ever, regardless of the opinion of such
low jesters as Mencken and Roscoe.

Anna R. Tuttle, formerly first Gummist with Paula Whiteman's orchestra, and now
head of the Tuttle School of Gumohewing, is another artist who praises Oozy-Juice
Instruments. In a recent letter she states that our instruments “are superior to all
others in tone, volume, action and expressiveness.” Miss Tuttle uses our instru-
ments in her teaching, and her results testify to the almost devotional care that is
exercised in our factory. Among her world-renowned pupils are Francys Pelton, the
gummist composer; Easton Senkier, who is now vacationing at Bayport, Minnesota;
Bartley Osborn, of the Englewood Symphony, Chicago; and the Partridge, Thomas.
and Partridge Trio, now on the Keith Circuit.
Whether you plav a stick or not, send for our illustrated brochure, which gives
all the facts regarding the various models of Oozy-Juice instruments. Or better still,
take advantage of our offer of a free trial, and ask us to send you an instrument on
trial for three days Then you can appreciate for yourself the scintillating arpeggios,
crashing chords, and ethereal harmonics which are made possible by the new. im-
proved Oozy-Juice. Progress is rapid: you’ll be able to chew the scale within a week.

credit where credit is due-
That is why I mention Zip-
It was the janitor Nicholas
That I one day did see
Come flitting down the hallway
And stop and speak to me.
Black were his eyes, like the black of
night.
His cheeks an olive brown,
His tie was yellow with purple spots;
His dress was worth renown.
Then up and spake friend Nicholas;
His voice was filled with fright;
“Methinks I see a storm coming
I bet I get canned tonight.
“For I have pulled a boner!”
So spake the quivering Nick.
“And the thing that I’m afraid of
Is that I will get the stick.
“Last night I saw the silent halls
But tonight I'll see the sky.”
I took a drag from my cigarette,
And a scornful laugh laughed I.
And then from a locker on Nicholas
A book began to fall.
It hit him with a resounding thud
That echoed through the hall.
Around the corner he swiftly sped,
And passed out of my sight.
The disappearance of Nick Berlin,
Startled the world that night.
The very next day, when just at noon,
The stalwart luncheon corps
Were very startled to hear a voice
Come through the oven door.
It sang, and then the door dropped down,
And gazing at the mob,
Was Nicholas Berlin himself.
But he was on the job!
“Come hither, come hither, my little Nick,
And do not tremble so.
For that was only a falling book
That struck you that foul blow.”
“For,” he said, “I've often heard
The boys around here boast
Of how they had a hot time
And of being done to toast.”
Then loosely round his supple form,
He wound his dusting cloth,
And flitted down the hallway.
As lightly as a moth.
And then to this immense surprise.
With out the slightest cry.
They fainted, each and every one,
And still he wonders why.

L’ENVOI
When the author's last lines are blue penciled,
And th’ engraver has finished his task,
When the printer has run the last copy,
And our work is completed at last,
We shall run, and faith we shall have to
Hop a freight that’s bound far away,
Till a brakeman or passing conductor
Speaks, and we’ve got to obey.
And the studes left behind shall revile us
As they languidly laugh at our work,
And loftily leer at the drawings;
Then remark, ‘‘This junk’s poor,” with a smirk.
But we shall not be there to listen
Though we’ll know every word that they say,
For remarks that they’ve spoken for decades
Are the same they’ll be making today.
Then only ourselves shall praise us,
And we’re miles from folks who will blame.
We didn’t write for money,
And we got but little fame,
Nor wrote for the joy of the writing,
But the “ed" made us turn in our stuff,
So we give them this book with clear conscience
And tell them, “Now ‘lay on, MacDuff’.”

The Wimpus—
World’s Slowest Swimmer
Will you catch one in
Glacier
NATIONAL PARK?
Records taken without the sanction of the A. A. U. show that the Wimpus
swims at the surprising rate of 100 yards in 10 flat, or 300 feet every 10 days.
Scene when JPimpus is
swimming west
Scene when IPimpus is
swimming farther west
Note—As the JFinipus swims at
very great. depth, it is impossible
to show him in above photographs.
Scientists say that the Wimpus swims thus
slowly because (he, she or it) is never going
anywhere, but is always coming back. This is
a very simpleton explanation.
Until the slow-motion camera was developed,
it was impossible to photograph this remarkable
hybrid. And yet, the Wimpus’ swimming
speed is about 6,000 times faster than the move-
ments of Sperry and other live glaciers in
Glacier Park.
While You Hunt the Wimpus
Enjoy yourself in Glacier Park —■ horse-back

climbing, hiking. Modern hotels and rustic

afterword
The ‘‘proofs'’ arc all in, and so arc we, but before laying
down our pens, we want to express our sincerest thanks to those
persons who helped us to make this Annual what it is.
To Miss Baumgart, the editorial advisor, we owe a debt of
everlasting gratitude, and to Mr. Kessel, the business advisor,
an equal amount of our appreciation. Without the aid of these
two faculty members we would have been lost. They were al-
ways encouraging.
Our class advisor, Miss Brodeen, was a large factor in the
accomplishment of our work. She was in a way. our ‘‘guardian
angel": her ready helpfulness and friendly encouragement and
advice were invaluable.
Miss Paro supervised the art work for us, and it is impos-
sible for us to adequately express our thanks, for her unflagging
interest and help.
To Mr. Tracy, Mr. Peterson, and Mr. Judkins of the Per-
kins-Tracy Printing Company and also to Mr. Chreiman of the
Buckbee-Mears Company, we express our appreciation for the
aid and hearty co-operation they have given us.
And now. with the pleasant knowledge that we have done
our best, we lay our quills aside. Never again, in Central, shall
we wield them.
The Staff.
