Lincoln Whittier Junior High 1933 Yearbook

The ittier ,Greenleaf

January 20, 1933

It is to the 9A's that this issue is presented with the hope that in later years they will turn the pages to chuckle and reminisce.

It should recall the many enjoyable times, friends, and teachers that w e r e encountered at Whittier.

GREE LEAF

CLA ONG (Maryland, my Maryland)

You are so dear to ev'ry heart. Whittier, dear Whittier. With happy memories we part, Whittier, dear Whittier. Alas, the time is drawing nigh, When we must ay a sad . good-bye, And leave thee, our dear Junior High , Whittier , dear Whittier.

Three happy years we've spent with you Whittier, dear Whittier, And to the Green and Black been true, Whittier, dear Whittier. At la t the time has come to go, Although it fills our hearts with woe, For happier times we'll never know , Whittier, dear Whittier.

- Elinor McCullock 222.

THE END OF THE VOYAGE

Soon we'll be leaving Whittier, Our pleasant voyage o'er; How we dread putting into port, For what have the days in store?

We have tried to be brave sailors, On the good ship Thirty-three Our task have all been conquered, ow the port at last we see.

Here we part in joy and sadness, For we've been a happy crew; We may sail 'neath other colors, But not again with the Pink and Blue.

Some will leave for Lincoln High School, Three more years of work and fun,

Some may choose a different pathway, Wh en their work at Whittier's done.

Those who sail on ever learning, Fearing not the stormy sea, Are the brave t of all sailors, To them the victory will be.

Teachers, friends, and jolly classmates, A happy time we've all had here,

To the good old friends of '33 Hail, farewell, a parting cheer!

- Ruby Campbell 222.

Mr. Lefler Speaks On"Ties That Bind"

On the morning of January 12, 1933, forty 9A's from Whittier who had earned their efficincy certificates went to the Board of Education building for an interview with Mr. Lefler.

The topic of Mr. Lefler's talk was "The Ties That Bind." He used personal experiences to illustrate the four main ties that bind us to all good things. He thinks that the home ties, friendship, scholarship, and sobriety are the attributes that make for better leadership.

In former year~ Mr. Lefler was able to have a personal interview with each pupil, but now the group has grown so large that he just makes a rather personal talk to the group.

Miss Towne and Mr. Bimson each ffa ve a short talk congratnhting those pupils on their achievement.

Message from 9A class sponsor

As classes leave Whittier and take up the studies and the activities of the senior high school. we watch their progress over there with friendly intere t. We hear good news of weighted credits earned, of class offices ably filled, and of honors won on the athletic field. Whittier alumni have al ways made a creditable showing at Lincoln High and elsewhere. and so we feel confident that this first semester class of 1933 will also measure up to the high standard set by preceding classmen. If, in leaving, they carry with them higher ideals of citizenship, and the determination to ''Make the best better,'' their three years at Whittier have been well spent.

THE

HORRORS OF AN INITIATION

Three year ago, our church o ened a. young peoples camp at Navoo, Illinois. We were housed in an old hotel about ten yards from the shore of the Mississippi River.

We had been in camp two weeks when someone suggested initiating us. This idea was met with approval by all the old campers, but was heralded with violent disapproval by the new ones. So marked was this dislike that some even \vent so far as to attempt to get sick on the green apples which grew a short distance from the building. A few succeeded in this ruse, (only too well) and therefore were absent from initiation, but asi<le from those few, all we new ones were subjected to an evening of horror.

As the supervisors of the camp had gone to town for the evening, the older campers took matters into their own hands, and we resigned our fate to them First we were taken in to the attic of the hotel and told ghost stories. About a half hour later , they decided they were only vvasting their breath; so they gave up trying to get us in the right mood.

One by one we were blindfolded and told we were to be taken through a secret tunnel they had just discoverd, which led to a haunted house. Then we were turned over to a guide.

From there on 1 can only tell my own experience. I was led down the stairs of the hotel into the ''mess hall," where I was forced to drop my dignity and crawl on hands and knees under ever y table there. Then we proceeded in the darkness. I was propelled into a boat in which I was conveyed some distance. How was I to know we only

THE WHITTIER GREE LEAF

went out a little way and came back to the same pot we had started from!

After walking a short distance , my guide told me we were at the opening of the tunnel. Here I was again forced on my hands and knees to crawl through the opening. (automobile tires do make a good mouth for a tunnel, now don't they?)

We proceeded to wend our way through the tunnel. As I could still feel the breeze blowing as violently as it was before 1 had earthen walls to protect me, I formed the opinion that I didn't have such a very truthful guide.

Coming to a slightly damp piece of ground, my guide told me to take a long stride so as not to get my feet wet in the stream. I planted my foot squarely in the middle of where the stream should be, and it came up dry. I didn't exactly like call my guide a liar right to her face; so I let go , and she never k new the difference. Then w e cam e to the other end of the tunnel, where I was again obligecl to proceed on my hands and knees. But this time I was not going to be a fool. I raised my head while I was still crawling and-clank!

It came in hard contact with a wooden beam. I then swayed from one side to the other. I was completely encased in wooden walls. Afterwards I got to take the place of the head executor, and anyone crawling between the two benches who stuck their head up, I was supposed to'crown' them with the wooden paddle.

When I emerged from the tunnel I was immediately shoved inot a large bush of thorns , .but I had stood about all I could. Grasping a hand that had pushed me into the bush, I forced its owner into the place I had so recently inhabited and was rewarded with some very vigorous shrieks.

Then I was lifted up, et on a

narrow ridge, and told to jump. Well, I didn't jump so was finally pushed right into the haunted house! Groans, moans, and the rattling of chains were to be heard all around me after I landed. All these noises, though, came from one side of the room so you can bet I tayed on the other side. That didn't quite suit omeone outside, and the first thing I kne\\ , I was being pushed further inside the room. I stepped out of their reach and stood there wondering about the commotion outside, but I didn't wonder long, for someone had got a broom and I was hurled into the very mid t of the "ghost."

After a few momets of very lively stepping, I was left alone , but still I wasn't to have peace, for it wasn't very long until I heard someone saying ' ' Right this way! Right this way!" suspecting more misery, I stood stock still, and told them if they wanted me they would have to come and get me first. A cold hand closed on mine, and I was led out into the evening air , where I was again left alone. I must have stood there about three minutes, and nothing happened; so I sat down. Immediately the air rang with laughter and mv blindfold was taken off.

After e v e r y On e had gone through the ''haunted house,'' we were forced to go through the ''paddling machine.'' Afterward I heard some of the older ones saying what fun that was, and I would have handed them a dictionary so the y could find the right meaning of fun , only I had none handy.

But the evening was finished off with ice cream and lollipops, and everyone was satisfied, even though we did eat standing up, the next day.

H. R. HISTORY-216

On January twenty-seventh, nineteen thirty, thirty - six frightened 7B's for the second time entered the portals of Whittier. Of that number twenty-eight remain. There were nine additions and seventeen withdrawals; four moving; five sixteen years of age, and eight demoted or transferred.

During 7B and 7 A they were under the guidance of Mr. Slothower, their friend and advisor. From 8B to 9A this group was ably manoeuvered by Miss Cruise.

This home room has some very interesting peculiarities:

The long and short of this home room is represented by Charles Becher and Robert Smith respectively.

Most birthdays come in July, September, and December, with none in April or November.

Paul Beck has gained thirty-six pounds in weight and seven and one-fourth inches in height.

The members of this home room were born in seven different states, ebraska, Illinois, I<?wa, Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, and Michigan. One pupil, Charles Vorburger, has the honor of being born in Switzerland.

Marion Borchert leads in scholarship while Emma H~hler and Walter Colwell are two leaders on the honor roll ; Mqrion, too, is one of the leaders.

Virginia Van Winkle had one of the leads in the operetta while a 9B, and many others had minor parts.

CLASS PROPHECY

Before an enchanting, mysterious prophet sat a woman nervously clutching the sides of a cushion. It was close, yes, very close to the time of an important factor in Miss Cruise's life. After many sleepless nights and much serious debating she had at last decided to seek the prediction of the discouraging 9A Class What was that? Oh disappointed again but wait! Yes it was! At last the prophet was beginning his interpretation.

Ah! The January class of 1933 from Whittier Junior High! A very difficult problem, indeed, but I shall attempt to prophesy its future. Nothing of much importance will happen for, lets see! About eight years. But on J anuary 20, 1951 a small, dark young man will bring to you tidings of greatest j o y (or of deepest sorrow!) Pretend this is the year 1951. You are at Miss Clark's home awaiting the outcome with bated breath. All is silent when suddenly a shrill ring echoes throughout the house! Inwardly fearful but outwardly calm Miss Clark answers the door with Miss Cruise close at her heels. After a minute of stupification she admitted a small dark young man. · What was going to happen?

"May I interest you ladies in a portable television set? One is needed in-Why bless my whiskers! If it isn't Miss Clark and Miss Cruise!"

As he came into the light they were surprised to see an old friend. Yes sir, this long-awaited, mysterious, dark, young person was Russell Taylor! After a most enthusiastic reception he set up the television set and after

ASSEMBLY SUMMARY

Assembly is a familiar word at Whittier, and they're always good too. Whittier has assemblies every Wednesday. At these

gatherings we usually have

entertainment though at the end of every semester the candid ates for Civic League offices are introduced. During the following assemblies committees are introduced and the Civic League officers are installed.

The first assembly was held to advertise the pa p e r, the Whittier Greenleaf , in which all members of the staff were represented, M a x i n e S t a k e r taking the part of Miss Hult. In the end the news staff stood behind the characters representing them. On October 7 the garden certificates were awarded. Mr . Heston was speaker at this event and along with his talk he exhibited many different kinds of vegetables all of which had been grown by himself. Some of the vegetables the pupils had never heard of or seen. This assembly was one of the most important thus f a r this semester. Mr. Ferris came to talk to us on fire prevention, giving us interesting facts and warnings about fire. Mr. Oscar Bennet and his accompanist, Miss Whitlaw, e~tearti~ed with some very dramatic musical numbers.

On November 2 Mr. Bimson came and gave us a talk entitled Freedom in Restraint. N o vember twenty-third Mr. McLees entertained with several piano solos.

The Christmas assemblies are always leading events. This time the Glee Club sang from the stage and Mrs. Swisher's and Miss Jones' chorus classes accompanied from the audience. Both the glee club and chorus classes were

THE WHITTIER GREENLEAF

accompanied by a string quartette composed of Richard Smith, Roland Fricky, Mary Worden, and June Meek. Mrs. Malcomb gave us a Christmas reading.

It is hoped that many more such assemblies may be had.

CHICKEN AND ICE CREAM SERVED AT 9A LUNCHEON

(continued from page 3)

LEONARD CURRY

Not only the 9A class but the rest of the Whittier pupils and teachers as well regret the death of Leonard Curry of 310. Leonard was shot while hunting with his father and a close freind. Leonard held important offices every year while he was here. He was the boys alternate in the 7B and chairman of the home room loyalty committee. In the 7A he was the home room president and the boy alternate again. He was the assistant captain of the boys team and a member of the service committee in the home room in the 8B. While he was in the 8A he served as the vice president of the home room. He served on various home room committees in the 9B and was elected to be the boy delegate for the 9A. Through the first six weeks he was in home room 106 and served as the secretary there until the accident. He also was a member of the boys playground committee of the junior civic league. Throughout the whole t i m e he w a s h e r e he was a good student and citizen. In all of his jobs Leonard was a reliable boy and in the future will be missed greatl y by everybody.

James Porter would play ''In Old Madrid" on the trumpet and that our age old prophet (Adine Scofield) would read the class prophecy. After the pupils had been enlightened as to the happenings of their future life , June Rogers, president of 302, received a telegram requesting that the contents of their will be exposed to the public. When the audience had recovered from the convulsions caused by 302' s will, Mrs. White led the class in singing their class song. Two more telegrams came, the first to Alice Nolan , warning her that 216' s will was yet to be read by Bob Oden, and the second saying that the class of 1933 wished to hear a parting word from Mr. Culler and Miss Hult. Then the class was startled by the sudden shouting by Victor Ray, the newsboy, ''Extra! Extra! 1933 class is just about to leave Whittier Junior High School." The newsboy distributed the extras(the 9A Issues) and the remaining time was spent in signing the Greenleafs.

Harry Abrams was greatly surprised to find that America was a young country, so his teacher said , and yet was 150 years, of age. "How old do you have to be, to be old?'' is his question.

A special note of apology to James Porter. In writing up the 9A luncheon it was listed that James Porter would play in Old Madrid. It wasn't meant that he would play in old Madrid (although some might wish it) but that he would play '' In old Madrid." Is it clear?

GIRLS SPORTS

Ninth grade games this semester have been intensely interesting and exciting with the umpires and score-keep e rs calling the strikes, balls, and scores fairl y and squarel y The members of the play-ground committee were Emma Bahler, chairman, and an all-around athlete from the usual champs, 216 , Pauline Kahler , Jean Fisher, Mar y Hester, Hazel Hahn, · Lydia Snyder, Janet Taple y , Thelma Koenig, Katherine Eirich , June Younker , Violet Hansen, and Dorothy Anderson.

THE WHITTIER JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL

This is dedicated to the 9A's of June '33. It is hoped that along with this issue will go the memory of the three happy years spent here. It should bring back recollections of the many amusing incidents which happened and it should recall also the life-time friends and faculty members met at Whittier.

THE WHITTIER GREE LEAF

CO M MENCE M ENT D AY

'Tis our commencement day at Whittier,

Old Whittier Junior High, Although we hate to leave you We all must say good-bye.

Now we've reached the end of our task And will be leaving soon.

Some never remembered history Nor civics could we do, Arithmetic was hard for us Will always bring bright mem'rie back

Our loyal colors green and black, Waving high and low,

Of the time we here did know.

We came to Whittier as freshies. And could not find our rooms

And music went wrong too. Even though all these befell us We tried to be true blue, But now we're going to leave you

Our dear old Whittier school.

- Margaret Dolezal.

GRA D UAT I ON

(Tune: Sailing)

Good bye, dear school, the hour is near When we must leave these halls so dear, And so across to senior high

We 9A's go, dear school, good bye. But 'ere we part from junior high today

A song we'll sing for the green and black so gay, Then, here's to the teachers and here's to the pupils too We will loyal be to all our comrades true.

Chorus:

Graduation, going from junior high But many a happy time we've spent In the dear, dear days gone by. But we're leaving Whittier school, so d~ar, And on we'll go to conquer things More difficult, we hear.

The time has come when we must part We'll give a pledge before we start Our ideals here we'll cherish true Our thoughts will be of you, dear school. Your standards will our inspiration be To conquer tasks on land or on sea. Then, as we grow older

More trained in wisdom too

Part of our sucess we'll give, dear school, to you.

- Ethel Taber.

Goodbye, old school! Your friendly portal we now must leave, You've done your part, In any good we achieve.
