CJoreu:ord WORK is finished! After month� of planning and con­ structing, after days of dis­ order, when only the architect could see the completed building through the confusion, the task is ended. The builder surveys his creation, proud of his accomplishment but sad that the ideal for which he has worked and striven is no longer a dream. It stands, a monu­ ment that will endure, a tribute to his integrity and faithfulness, whether it be that he has finished a building, a high school career, or a book that may in the days to come recall the years of construction that he spent at Baldwin High School.

still see him in our midst, playing with us in our games, working with us, raising his voice with ours in song. He will always hold an affectionate place in our hearts as a loyal friend, a true and trusty worker, and one who accomplished with true merit whatever he attempted.


'lJiews rnx1_T 1s WITH satisfaction that we regard our building.

.JJ Its walls are already firmly founded and are con-

,_,,n•

tinually being raised higher. There are four fields in which we have attempted to portray the development: Religion, Education, Recreation, and Business. The wall of Religion is already strong and lofty. It is from this wall that we receive faith and courage to expand our building program so that it may benefit all mankind. The wall of Education must be sturdy and strong; for crime, avarice, and hate flourish only where the undermining evil, ignorance, has prevented a straight wall. The next is Recreation. It is the law of nature that all young and old alike must play. Parks and playgrounds are an essential part of all cities, and it is because of them that people are able to be happy and healthy. The wall of Business has mounted to skyscraper heights. It has grown rapidly and continues to grow, changing villages to towns and towns to cities. No matter how fast or rapidly we build, we must take pains to construct each step thoroughly. Only disaster awaits, if, in the rush to attain great heights, the building is poorly or inadequately done.

there are leaders. To be a leader is to inspire others with the will to act and to direct action, giving it specific aim and guidance. Little would be accomplished without supervision, without a guiding hand to direct those who have latent ability, but who lack the quality of directing themselves or others. It is the executive and the solons who direct our great country, who decide whether our country shall be great or small, magnanimous or selfish. The same is true of our village and school. It is the administration which initiates the plans for the welfare of the number; and if these have confidence in their leaders, the value will depend upon the good management and guidance of those leaders.

sc1-100L buildings arc designed to serve the community along many new lines. The enlarged Barnum school in Birmingham, authorized in 1929, will cost $385,000 and will be completed September I, 19 JO. The building is fireproof concrete, brick, and steel and will provide for 760 pupils in the kindergarten, grades, and junior high school. It contains sixteen home rooms and a kindergarten, as well as general offices, health service, library, art, commercial, cooking, cafeteria, sewing, manual training, music, and science rooms. The combined gymnasium and auditorium will provide superior facilities for all kinds of work in physical education. The Barnum swimming pool, which is the first in .my Birmingham school, is of standard size, twenty-five feet by seventy-five feet, is of the latest design, and has most modern equipment for sterilization and purification. Pro vision has been made for the installation of public address and radio tde vision equipment throughout the building whenever needed. Such facilitie~ a~ these for educ.1tio1ul and recre,1tio1ul work arc a gre,lt .1ddition to the Birminglum school system. ODE RN

may be compared to As the followers are a collective body, it is essential to separate them into their units and evaluate each. A worker is known by his workmanship, and the corollary of that workmanship is the character given to a work by the art or the skill of the workman. No matter how small one's lot may be, if he does it to the best of his ability, with all the ardor and efficiency he has, he will obtain his due reward in selfsatisfaction and gratification at the success of the undertaking of which he has been a minute particle. To be an artist in the most menial labor that destiny can provide is to be greater than being mediocre at a thousand aimless efforts. ~ H E CLASSES

January (?lass GJeistory s WE THINK back, it seems that our history as a class b~gan in the year nineteen twenty-eight, our sophomore year; at least that was the first time we manag~d to get more than our names and pictures in the Baldwinian. However, our real history begins further back with the stone age, the marble age. It recalls to us pleasurable first meetings with each other, picnics under the guidance of our teachers, the hilarious game of pom-pom-pullaway on th~ old Hill School play ground, occasional glorious fights, and more poignant than all, our first loves. Our life in junior high came in preparation for our entrance into high s::hool. We were hammered into the first semblance of a class and were given our first authority over ourselves. During these few years we grew and changed, intellectually and physically.

In high school our first president to go on record was Knowles Wilson, our sophomore president. We weren't much then, but we knew that we soon would be. On entering the eleventh grade we could begin to see the end. We were now With the alternating aid of the very definitely an important part of the school. ten A's and eleven A's we entered every organization or activity that was offered, among these our first play, "Babs," starring Veneta Cook. Several of the "kids" were important parts of the athletic teams. Finally, in the year just passed we settled down to face a serious situation, that is, for some. But all our interests were not on scholastic goals. There was much else to hold our attention. All the organizations and athletic teams were well supported by us. "Adam and Eva" was our play that year, in which much dramatic ability was shown. Graduation became imminent and we were anxious to go the way of former friends. Our last big "throw" together was a combination treasure hunt and tobogganing party that all seemed to enjoy. Then came that one night in caps and gowns, when we sat on the stage, looking over the audience and smiling both inwardly and outwardly at the remarks of our interesting speaker of the evening, Dr. Hoben. Our tiny class was awarded diplomas and the thing was done and now we are through. Who can tell what lies ahead?

BALDWINIAN

June ~lass CJeistory 1927 THE MEMBCRS of this class started to build the third building in their educational construction plan, the senior high school. They had already completed the elementary school and two junior highs. One half of the class built the junior high at Baldwin, the other half at Adams. But now both groups combined to construct Baldwin Senior High. N

First we had to lay the basement foundations. Our whole sophomore year was spent in constructing this basement. One by one we laid the bricks of English, Latin, geometry, and history, but better than all of these, friendship. Miss Stickle and Mr. Correvont were the "bosses" who expertly guided us in our construction work on senior high. Everyone having worked hard, a holiday was declared for all laborers. \Ve gladly laid aside our tools and paraded with the other unions to Barnum Field where we took part in the traditional Field Day. When Hallowe'en came around, we had a masquerade in one corner of the basement on which we were working. Mr. Toothacker easily persuaded our class to organize a Sophomore Washington Group, and he was chosen to be our advisor. During the spring semester, the interclass basket ball tournaments were held, and our sophomore laborers emerged Yictorious. Next September found us starting on the first floor of our building; where the first bricks of French, chemistry, and public speaking were laid upon the basement bricks. The workers were also very busy in another organization, the Junior Washington Group. Mr. Correvont was chief "boss" and Miss Grey his assistant in our Labor Organization of the Class of June 19 3 0. The constructors were given their annual celebration at a leap year party in the Community House, which might have been called the "Builders' Ball." A few "beams" were added to the auditorium by the "Thirteenth Chair" presented by the class. Now the _Labor Union has been working on the last floor of its building. This i~ where the last bricks and finishing touches have been added, such as journalism, physics, civics, typing, shorthand, and bookkeeping. Mr. Correvont, with the assistance of Miss Packard, has managed the Union for the third time; and Herman Schwarze has been "foreman" for the third time. When Field Day, the Laborers' Holiday, was held, the seniors were victorious. Now we are looking forward to the time when a whole week will be given to us to make our trip to Washington. The boys had the greater opportunity in dramatics chis year, for we gave "The Meanest Man in the World," a play having a cast of boy leads.

In June 1930, we shall complete our construction of the senior high school. We hope and expect that the bricks which we have laid, those of knowledge, friendOn June 12, we sh.ill receive the ship, and school spirit, will remain forever. diplomas which will enable us to undertake the work of building in larger schools, colleges and universities.

father of the man." Good building is a thorough process, and it is in the grades and the junior high school that a firm foundation of primary fundamentals is learned. The necessity of intense, well-directed labor, the art of concentration, and the need of coopera­ tion have become inbred by the time these eager juniors reach the senior years. They have be­ come far advanced in music, in athletics, in self­ government and discipline, so that senior high school means merely the developing of these powers to a greater efficiency. It is perhaps with a touch of paternalism that the seniors, remembering their own careers, regard these diminutive juniors; but nevertheless they watch them with pride and take a genuine interest in their proJects.

or June 1933 gives promise of distinction in both music and

~ athletics.

It is well represented in both girls' and boys' glee clubs and on the athletic teams. A comparatively large number of girls are beginning to look like fine material for basket ball and baseball, and the girls' soccer team has already demonstrated its prowess. The boys have been a great addition to the football ~quad, three on the second team, and 0!1e on the varsity. The boys also formed the nucleus of the hard and scrappy junior high basket ball team. The class has given two fine parties: one a tobogganing party at Devon Gables; the other in the lower hall, where there were tables for card-players, and Duke Mills's "Merrymakers" provided music for dancing.

In athletics, as well as other activities, members of our class have been outstanding participants. The boys of our class gave fine support to the track team, the letter men being Wm. Guckleberg, captain-elect for 1930, Jack Patterson, Clark Matthews, and Donald McAlpine; in baseball the letter men were Clarence C.1~~.1dy and J.1ck P.1ttcr~on.

TH E VERY first year that this class entered Baldwin High, it carried out a novel idea with the 7A's. The 7B's and 7A's had a combined outdoor party. Games were held for which points were given to the winning team. The two classes contributed and bought a cup which went to the team having the most points. The cup is to be the property of each victorious 7B or 7A class of the future. Mary Jeanne \X'eitzel and James Packard were members of the Student Council in the SB. This semester, SA, Mary Jeanne Weitzel and Kenneth McBride represented our class in th.1t organization. Miss Hughes and Miss Huggett have been our advisors.

UR CLASS is made up from

three schools, Pierce, Hill, and Quarton. When we came over from the grades we had to have somebody to help us, somebody to lean on. We tried to lean on Bob Mix, but he started leaning on us-imagine our embarrassment. The two Student Council representatives are Victoria Gellatly and William Gail. They are reported as working well. Quite a number of boys went out for basket ball, but we were a little bit green; so none of us made the team. \XI' ell-if luck is with us we may graduate-who knows? So, Adios.

CLASS OF January 1933 began the year in the usual way by electing officers and advisors for the semester. The advisors were Mrs. Hicks and Miss Densmore. Several parties during the year were held but all were poorly attended. Toward the end of the first semester Mr. Stratton, our session room teacher, started a room organization. Irene Lamond, Madge Williams, and Robert Gibbons were chosen as a committee of three to assist him in his plans. However, as everyone was busy studying for final exams only one party was given, a coasting party hich cook place at Cranbrook.

J· RESHMAN CLASS of Adams Junior High School has just concluded a most successful year under the leadership of Robert Buckberrough, president; Hester Giles, vice-president; Hermine McCormick, secretary-treasurer; and Miss Rogers and Mr. "Wiseman, advisors. In the field of sports the ninth grade girls won the soccer and ki~kball championship whi le the boys' tennis tournament was won by Gerald Anderson. The Adams Girls' Athletic A ssociation known as the A. G. A . was started by a group of ninth grade girls under the direction of Miss Kriekard. The fre~hman class also enjoyed themselves socially last year. In the fall the ninth grade class sponsored the Freshman Masquerade, which was a very enjoyable party. Before Christmas this class held a dinner dance out at Bloomfield Park. The freshman play which was very successful was given about chis time. Near the end of che semester the f.1culty joined with the cbss in a party for the alumni, which was also a farewell party for Coach Wiseman.

']\{gws on the C-Western GJront (�iss Huggett\· Physiology [lass) Extracts from "Lieutenant Whitey Corpuscle." (�oDAY AS I WAS talking to Miss Red Corpuscle,a messenger came up with the � message of war. War is so common to us corpuscles I took it as a matter of fact. I rode to the heart barracks and received orders to take a company of corpuscles to fight some bacilli in northeastern corpuscle land .... I ordered a spy ahead to locate the enemy. In the meantime nobody ate anything w as to have a good appetite for the fight .... We advanced cautiously and soon were close to the rebel camp. We attacked at c,nce, but the rebels formed a square. I soon found the square unbreakable and so retreated. I decided to ambush them and got behind the liver. I saw the rebels coming :ind cautioned them to remain hidden. When the rebels were between my lines, I charged. I picked out a bacillus and soon devoured him,for I was hungry. I ate rebel after rebel. But soon I noticed we were being_ driven back against the walls of the liver. I gave a yell and out came friend bile. We soon devoured all but five officers and the rebel leader .... -DONALD SCRIVEN.

They will play one more selection entitled "My Loving Red Corpuscle." (Pause) That was also very good. It is now time for the Blood Hour.

YLAR THERE have been some splendid voices in th~ Junior Girls' and Boys' Glee Clubs, which will in time afford excellent material for the Senior Clubs. The girls made a successful appearance before the Literary Club. They have worked on some exceptionally hard numbers and have slowly but surely won recognition. The appearance of the Junior Boys' Glee Club at the Christmas chapel certainly showed that there will be some Carusoes and McCormicks from the group.

nil T BASEBA L L team to represent the Baldwin Junior High School set an enviable record. Under the skilful guidance of Coach Engel, the Green and White team went through the season undefeated. The boys won a hand~{lme sil ver troph y designating the championship of the Little Six League.

\X'hen Coach Engel called for candidates, twenty-five boys turned ouc for practice. The team was built around Wedge as pitcher; Conwell, Bunyan, McDonough, Jones, and Patterson composed a most formidable infield while McKee, Hunt, and Halsey performed in the outfield. Hunt led the team in. the offensive department with a batting average of .65 0, while Patterson was high scorer bagging eleven runs. To coach Engel goes the credit for the success of the team which worked under him. The success of next year's team will depend upon the substitutes and new material, all last year's regulars being lost. Those who received letters were Wedge, Conwell, Bunyan, McDonough, Jones, McKee, Hunt, Halsey, Aldrich, Cassady, Patterson, and Ward. Miller received a manager's letter.

under Coach Engel laH spring completed a most note-worthy The team successfull y opened the season winning the Little

Six Meet at Royal Oak, scoring forty - four points to Royal Oak's twenty scvcn, followed by Berkley, Haz.el Park, Adams, and Ferndale. The next meet w.1s the Oakland County Meet at Ferndale where fourteen teams competed. Our boys were forced to accept the runner- up position, Pontiac Eastern accumulating sixty-four and one- half points. The next meet we met our traditional rivals, Adams, for the City Title with a silver trophy at stake. The boys ran wild, forcing Adams to take the short end of an :ighty-nine to twenty-nine score. The laurels won by the Green and White team included two handsome silver trophies, a bronze relay trophy, and several medals. One feat worthy of note was achieved by the relay team in the Oakland County Meet. The team composed of Bunyan, Hunt, McKee, and Patterson tied the Detroit Junior 440 relay record, covering the course in fifty -one seconds. Prospects for another strong team are fairly good although five lettermen are lost. Those who received letters were Patterson, Bunyan, McKee, Hunt, McDonough, Aldrich, Weeks, Mills, Packard, Guckleburg (captain-elect), Freeman, Jones, Whalen, Groves, Ward, McAlpine, Matthews, and Dalee, a manager's letter .

JUNIOR HIGH basketeers under Coach Johnson completed a successful season with six victories and four losses, the cagers dropping the four games to Ferndale, Berkley, Adams, and Ferndale. The team showed the fight characteristic of Baldwin teams. After losing Canever and Wedge to the senior squad, and Forester and Dimmick at the second semester, a much weakened team finished the season. Trebilcock, Cassady, O'Rourke, Groves, and Weeks joined the squad at the second semester and were valuable assets. McBride led the offensive department with a total of thirty-four points. The team that finished the season was composed of McBride and Laughlin at guards, Trebilcock at center, Aldrich as one forward and Deneen and Morrow sharing the other forward position. Undoubtedly the most exciting game of the season was the second Adams game, th~ Green and White team barely nosing out Adams with a score of nineteen to eighteen, after playing overtime. Next year's team will be built around McBride, the only remaining regular. Those who received letters were McBride, Laughlin, Aldrich, Trebilcock, Deneen, Morrow, Forester, Dimmick, and Payton, a manager's letter.

ACH YEAR a new staff, confident in its ability, little realizing the magnitude of the task before it, sets out to make a book that will portray all phases of student activity. Soon the members realize that to have a "orthy product they must work hard, just as any laborers work constructing a building. Upon looking about and noting the great progress and strides in building, the staff decided to show how the material building in the community reflects the spiritual and mental development. Just as someone is sure to find a fault in a building, we realize that some of you will be dissatisfied. However, we hope that most of you will like this book and cherish the days you spent at Baldwin. To Mrs. Horwath, Miss Taylor, and Mrs. Kidder, those who directed, labored, and

w patiently devoted their time, the staff expresses its deepest appreciation with the hop: that they will continue to give so generously in order that coming classes may reap the same fruits that we have enjoyed .

MARCH the Maroon and White celebrated the beginning of the third year of its existence as Baldwin's first and only real newspaper. Issued biweekly as a publication averaging eight pages, it has been a factor looming well up in school life since its beginning. Several interesting extra editions have been produced by the Maroon and White Staff. Among these h,ive been sports editions, and Thanksgiving football editions. The paper has sponsored the Model Airplane Club contests .1nd Model Boat regatt.1s, offering trophies to the winners. A custom begun at the close of the b.1sket b.dl season, that of presenting a gold basket ball to the most v.1lu.1ble pl.1yer, will be continued throughout each se.1son. The p.tper has been foremost in p.1triotic .1ctivities of the school, sponsoring pep meetings, introducing the Birminglum M.1rching Song, and presenting the cheer leaders with their firH emblem~. Among it~ student services ltJ~ been the posting, quartcr-by -qu.1rtcr, of football scores of Ol)t-of- town g.1mcs. Clc.trly the Maroon and \Vhitc is a vital factor in school life.

THE tradition, there was_ organized in the fa_ll of 1927 another Sophomore \X'ashington Group. Little was done to raise money the first year because of the two groups already working, but the junior year was a great success under the able direction of Mr. Toothacker and Miss Gray. \X'hen Miss Cray left at the end of the year, Miss McIntyre stepped in and capably filled the vacancy. With such advisors as these and such co-workers as we had, who can doubt that the actual trip was just one of the great pleasures of the venture?

team for this year was announced, everyone wondered what kind of a showing it would make, for it was composed entirely of inexperienced people. Peggy Hart, Mary Hutchinson, and Gerry Kessler, constituted the first team; but several juniors, Marian Masters, Joseph Huston, Philip DeBeaubien, and Gilbert Hopper, were also on the squad. It is hoped that they will form an even more successful team next year. In spite of inexperience, and notwithstanding the fact that the team failed to go as far in the elimination contest as our previous teams have, it did establish a new record; for it was the first team in our school to receive the highest number of points possible in the preliminary series. It has added another wall plaque for excellence in debating to the series in Mr. Hart's office, the fifth consecutive one. Jt1LN Tl-IL D E BATING

The question for debate was, "Resolved, That a Judge or Board of Judges be Substituted for the Jury in all State and Municipal Courts in the State of Michigan." During the season, the team upheld both sides of the question. The team met Royal Oak in the first preliminary debate, from which Baldwin emerged victorious. A few weeks later the team journeyed to Fordson where they again received the decision. Monroe and Dearborn were its next opponents, and it defeated them also. For the first debate in the elimination series Baldwin drew Cooley High of Detroit as its opponent. Though the team put up a good fight, the decision was aw.irded to Cooley. Much credit for the work the tc.1111 did mmt go to Co.1ch Corrcvont. It w.1~ only through his co.1ching .111d encouragement that the squad changed from .in inexperienced group to a finished debating team.

Room 104, I overheard an interesting conversation between two of our helpful friends, Miss Pencil and Mr. Eraser.

NE DAY, BEING IN

"As you are a newcomer here," Mr. Eraser was saying, "I'll tell you about the Dramatic Club that meets here every -::ither Tuesday night." "Oh, please do!" cried Miss Pencil, delighted at the idea. "It really is a wonderful organization considering it began only last September," 5aid Mr. Eraser warming to his subject. "And it has an inspiring purpose, an aim for mutual improvement in the development of personality, self-reliance, and poise, and for cnlargment of the fund of general intelligence by the study and appreciation of the better forms of dramatic art." "Has the club produced any plays?" asked Miss Pencil. "They did give one play called 'Wurzle Flummery'; but right now the club is interested in the different phases of dramatic art, that every member may have a general knowledge of the drama before any more productions are attempted."

MEANEST MAN IN THI WOJlLD" was particularly dist inctive because of ;rs pleasing plot and the unity of the production. The play did not lag at any moment from the opening act to the last curtain. Particularly noticeable were the fine settings, executed for this piece. The story deals with a young fellow who has made believe he is a great success when he is really a tragic failure in his own m ind. His opportunity comes when he goes to a small town to collect a bill and instead collects the girl he loves ( who of course becomes Mrs. Clarke), a fortune from oil ( which he charitably returns to the people of Hudsonville), and converts Hiram Leeds ("The Meanest Man in the World"). All in all it was a delightful performance demonstrating the commendable ability of the seniors as actors and giving the audience real satisfaction.

IRA TES, JUNIORS; romance, intrigue, transporting us

to the "Treasure Island" days when dusky pirates roamed the earth seeking romance and adventure -such was the play of the Junior Class of 1930. Ambrose Applejohn, a young man who is longing for excitement, is confronted one day, by a young Russian lady who begs him to save her and hide her jewels. He does this, and so reveals to her a secret panel in which is located a map telling where a pirate treasure is hidden. Much excitement follows, with robbers, shrieks and shots, and mystery.

OPl:.Rl:.TTA, presented by the glee clubs of Baldwin High School, was one of the most outstanding productions ever given by our students. Betty Burbank, a popular young lady, finds that Harold Post fulfills her requirements as a suitor. Her mother is pleased with Betty's choice, but Mr. Burbank declares he will have no bashful, "softy" boy for his son-in-law. A money prize offered by McCullom, induces Joe Bennett to display his ability as a stunt flyer; and upon winning a position in the McCullom studio, he is able to ask Shirley's hand in marriage. Persuaded by his chum, Jim, Harold volunteers to make a parachute jump which will prove him a real dare-devil. All efforts to evade the ordeal failing, he makes the leap and wins Burbank's enthusiastic approval.

, , ---. Jfci) OURAGE IN DANGER is half the � battle," said Plautus. What can develop courage and a brave heart better than physical competi­ tion with an opponent worthy of one's skill? It takes courage to play the game, to play fair, to best an opponent after an equal struggle in which it has been necessary to try one's best mettle. There is no place in the scheme of life for one of faint heart. To face life courageously, to live a clean, wholesome, fruitful life, to put forth one's best effort on all occasions, requires the keenness of a well-developed body. May athletics always continue clean and whole­ some, with the participants holding in their hearts a real love of the game and a sports­ man's spirit in victory or defeat.

GRO UP, ONSISTING of both coaches and students, was organized with the purpose in view of giving the students a voice in the planning and carrying out of the school athletic program, with the hope through this cooperation of improving athletics. That this hope has been recognized is evident from the benefit which the board has seen in the athletics of our school for the past few years. The things which come up for discussion are size of letters and rating of sports in two groups, or discussion of any new sport which should be introduced in our activities. The b:iard .ilso helps to promote school spirit and good sportsmanship. It consists of members from the four upper classes, the high school principal, athletic director, and coaches. The members for this year were Don Gore and Jean Brooks for the senior class, and James Brien, Derwood Harris, and Fred Sage for the junior, sophomore, and freshman classes respectively. There is also a member from the Varsity Club, who was Harry York this year. The faculty members were Mr. Johnson, Mr. Engel, Miss McIntyre, :i nd our principal, Mr. Hart.

~qu,1d w.1s not up to the level of teams in the p.1st, 1t completed .1 succes~ful season; for under the leadership of Co.1ch Johnson the team le,1rned .1 gre.lt deal, not only about football but also about life, ch.1racter, and clean sportsmanship. Our team won the first game played by one point .md also won the second, then lost five consecutive games. Then cam~ one of the ~reatcst things that can happen to a team in one season. The team that had won but I wo games, tied one, and lost five, pbycd the I.1st game, stepping, under the coaching of Mr. Johnson and the captaincy of Herman Schwarze, from an .ilmost unconquerable rut to a victory over the Royal Oak team in the most interesting and important game of the ~c.1son, beating them by a seven to nothing score. This team learned the taste of defeat and the hard task to break from such position. They learned wh.1t a fight it is to reach Yictory without support; and they learned the honor and joy of being a success which every boy should feel. This season, as you can sec, was not a failure but a success, even though we lost five out of nine g.1111cs played. A new rule was instituted this year under which a temporary captain is chosen for each contest and then at the end of the season one of the players is honored with the c.1ptaincy. This gives the best man a better chance as he is chosen more on the ability he displays during the season than, a~ formerly, by the judgment of the veteran players. Therefore, Herman Schwarze was the last full year active captain for Baldwin. "Herm" played a good game for three years ,lt both end and half-back and deserves a lot of credit. We have the disaster of losing by gr.iduation, besides Captain Schwar.i:e, six good men who played marvelous football. Don Gore, who is the pluckiest player for his size .inyone h.1s ever known, h.1s played his bst game for B. H. S. He played .it b.1ckfield .111d guard and will leave a big hole. 1 111ouc., 11 o u l\ 1 oo I BAIL

B ,-\ L DVVI Tim Neal, who held down the end position and tackle for the last two years, also played his last game for Birmingham. "Stew" Rainey, who has played end for the last two years, leaves a big hole at the right end of the old line. Calvin Morgan, who played at guard for two years, leaves a position to be filled by somebody who had better borrow a little of Cal's "fighting spirit." Jimmie Winborn is another we lose from the backfield; he certainly could carry back those punts. Lauren Ford, who played his first and last season for Baldwin, had the spirit to "hit 'em hard" and "make 'em like it." We lose a lot when we lose "Mike." Many of the students started the season right by taking cars to Pontiac to see the opening game. We beat Pontiac seven to six in a hard fought game. Our next game we won six to nothing on our own field against Grosse Pointe. Then we journeyed to Port Huron to play a very close and hard fought game that ended in a nothing to nothing tie. We then went to River Rouge and lost a good game nineteen to nothing. The most talked about and discussed game of the season was with Mount Clem~ns on our own field, which we lost twenty-seven to nothing. This game was a great change from the preceding year, being the most cleanly played of the season. Ferndale beat us sixteen to nothing, and Fordson won a victory twenty to twelve. Hazel Park next downed us six to nothing, after which preparations were made for the big game with Royal Oak. Thanksgiving Day the team that journeyed to Royal Oak to win the greatest game of the season was in the best of spirits and was determined to win. This it accomplished on the opponents' field, beating Royal Oak seven to nothing. The first half was very quiet and ended nothing to nothing, but the second half was a different story. Birmingham started a march down the field; and in one of the best trick plays Baldwin had, Brien carried the ball over for a touchdown, and Jim McGann's "educated toe" succeeded in making the extra point. The team almost scored again; but Royal Oak held fast, and the game ended with the teams in mid-field. By winning that game from our closest rival, Baldwin completed a most note-worthy season.

to rise to the heights of a perfect season, we can by no means consider the past one as a total loss; for some day a team is to arise that will sweep aside all opposition and victoriously stand at the head of all.

GAIN UNABLE

We won six of the fifteen scheduled contests, losing a practice match with Detroit Central. At the tournament our hopes were downed as we lost in the opening round to a superior St. Mary's team-36-19. The team, in spite of numerous handicaps and discouragements, did not allow itself become discouraged but bravely fought to the end. Many of the contests were decided in the last minutes of play and provided the spectators with great excitement, .1s well as acting as a spur to greater loyalty. to

Seven men won their coveted letters, which were presented at the Basket Ball Dance. They were the following: Hartwell Ladd, our captain, who, although he graduated in February, was a strenuous fighter, an inspiration to his teammates and best of all, a good loser. Clarence Wedge, elected captain for the remainder of the season, played a steady, at times sensational game and proved one of the main stays of the team. When he was t1ken ill just before the tournament, we lost one of our best players.


1930

Herman Schwarze, playing his last year, again proved to be one of the most brilliant players on our quintet. Leading the scoring in almost every fracas, he will be a hard man to lose; and Coach Engel will not easily find a man to fill his place. Bill Dixon, .1lthough handicapped by his size, managed to make up for it in loyalty. Fighting every minute, he deserves the letter he earned after three years of hard pulling. Eddie Deer, who will return for a full season was also awarded his letter. He managed to keep in the center of the melee and to play a good game at guard. John Chandler, playing a mediocre game at rimes, often rose to heights and led the team. We arc looking to him for next year and expect to sec great things from him. Taking Berger's berth in mid-season, George Shave, following in the footsteps of his illustrious brother, played a fine game. Fspecially commemorable was his showing at Royal Oak. We lose three fine players by graduation-Ladd, Schwarze, and Dixon. Deer and Chandler will return for a whole season, while Wedge and Shave, will have only a semester to play. There is also much promising material among the reserves, the outstanding ones being Harris, Dalley, Hunt, Bunyan, and Brown. No captain will be elected before the season, but one will be selected before each game and an honorary one elected at the end of the season, thus enabling the men to choose the player who most deserves the honor rather than conferring the honor beforehand. We won games from Dearborn, the alumni, Mt. Clemens, Monroe, Wyandotte, and Ecorse. Games were lost to Pontiac, Hazel Park, Royal Oak, Pt. Huron, Gross,· rointe, Ferndale, Adrian, a~d St. Mary's. In a resume of the season we recall the exc1t1ng Royal Oak game at Royal Oak which we lost 15 - 14, the Ferndale game which we lost 20- 19, and the second Royal Oak game which was lost I 8-16 .

BALDWINIAN The second team had a fairly good season, breaking about even. There were also many exciting games and much good material was developed fer the Varsity five. "Nippy" Wilson held down the position (it used to be job) of manag~r. ~mall, he did a good deal of work and kept the team in good spirits.

Although

Coach Engel is to be praised for the splendid training he gave the boys in sportsmanship and clean-playing. And who knows but that that championship may be won next year?

1ntramural Qames INTRAMURAL GAMES this year attracted a considerable amount of attenti_on and provided the spectators and the players with a great deal of exc1tement.

The first meeting was between the 10 A's and the twelfth graders. The IO A's, the team that was to win the championship, routed the Seniors, 26-14. On Tuesday the 1 I B's and the 11 A's clashed. In this match, also, the lower classmen succeeding in turning back their rivals, 26-8. Wednesday, the 10 A's bested the 10 B's, gaining the right to meet the 11 B's in the finals. On Thursday the finals were played bringing the undefeated quintets together. The hopes of the 11 B's were downed decisively, .1s the 10 A's literally swamped them, winning the championship by the one-sided score, 26-14. The players who won medals for playing on the wmnmg team were McDonough ( high scorer), Brown, La met, Stone, and Stewart.

Our victories were over our closest rival, Royal Oak, and over Berkley, Wyandotte, Grosse Point, Port Huron, and Redford . We were defeated after a very strong fight by Ecorse, Ferndale, Monroe, and Pontiac, with whom we played two games. James Brien, "Bubby," held down the first bag, taking the place of Ralph Schwarze, who had become ineligible. Lauren Ford, "Mike," was behind the batter and certainly made a good stop for Wedge's fast curves. Herman Schwarze also pitched and at times relieved Ford at the catcher's job. Ralph Schwarze, who was captain, lost this honor to Tim Neal, who is succeeded by Clarence Wedge this season. The letter men who returned to Coach Johnson's training this year are Captain Wedge, H.

UR TRACK TEAM last year stood about the same as other years but was '--.../ ~ made up of a few very good men rather than a whole good team as before. We were crowded out of third place in the State Meet by one point, thus taking fourth with a score of fourteen to fifteen. Milton Porteous and Fred Rollins were the dual captains last year; and this year, 1930, we have Harry York, who on account of injuries was not able to run the latter part of last season. He was missed greatly in the hurdles and relay.

Fred Rollins, who started the season as a mile runner, shifted to the 440 and took second in the State Meet, being crowded out at the finish by another man. He was able to take first in the S. E. A. A., however. Porteous took first in the state 220 and first in the S. E. A. A. 220 and 100. Berger took second in the state high jump and second in the S. E. A. A. division. Our relay team consisting of Rollins, Porteous, Welch, and York ( DeBerg rephcing York in the S. E. A. A. because of injuries) was very good, placing in every meet and taking second in the S. E. A. A. and third in the State.

of candidates and maturity in those who did report for cross country in 1929, the team was not so successful as the two preceding ones. There was a good turnout of smaller boys, but only three who were of age to run m the Regional Meet, one of them being our captain, "Dave" Macomber. Although three members of the team were eligible to run in the Regional Meet, none ran in the State Meet. UE TO LACK

The boys who received letters were "Dave," who graduates; Maurice Ge1sei, who has two more years ; Virgil Owens, a freshman; captain-elect, Ward Conwell, who also has two years; and Glenard Schwallie, who received his manager's letter. Several promising men, ,111 of whom have three years more and just failed of winning letters this season, were Eldridge Drury, Victor Canever, Leo Ward, and John Pepperall. With :ill this promising material returning we are expecting to have a good team in 19 3 0.

UR Nl:.T GA.ML attr.1cted a great deal of attention .md interest last season '-./ ~ because of the way the team was picked. After an extensive tournament of all boys intereHed in the game and in trying for a place on th e quartette, the team to represent our school in this sport was chosen. It consisted of "Bob" Muzzy (captain), Forest Fowler, Wally Gail, and "Duke" Mills .

Our season was about neutral, two games being won from Rochester and one each from Milford and Log Cabin, while there were lost two very interesting games to Royal Oak and two to Pontiac. The last one with Pontiac was to determine who held the championship. After a hard fight we won the first set, but hard luck came our way and we lost the last two sets, thus losing the gam~. We have only one of the veterans back, "Duke"; and we hope he will receive not only the support of all boys who are attracted by this sport, but also the support and interest of the whole school.

BALDWINIAN

Girls' cAthletics

IRLS' ATHLETICS come second in the hearts of the

Baldwinites, the boys being first. But the second choices are satisfied because their enthusiasm for each particular phase of the sports urges them on to victory even though the sidelines are not packed. Good sportsmanship prevails throughout; and our girls, although feared by their opponents, are praised for their clean playing. Miss McIntyre instills this spirit by constantly urging the girls to take a loss as easily as a victory. This is hard, but even when defeated they usually come out with a smile, perhaps a little forced, on their faces. This athletic body is deserving of praise for their valiant struggle to gain a front seat in the respective leagues.

CoACH McIntyre

GJ3asket GJ3all Last year's basket ball season was a tremendous success m that Baldwin's speedy sextet won :five out of a possible seven games. At the beginning of the 1930 season a horde of new rules were inaugurated and with the loss of Esther Kist, and Gertrude and Margaret Coryell, through graduation, Miss McIntyre was facing a perplexing situation. \'>?hen she gave her call for athletes, however, thirty showed up at the gym for the :first practice; then the only trouble was to whip the promising material into shape. A jinx seemed to attach itself to the basketeers after the first game, for both fcrndale and Farmington defeated the Maroon and White Six. On top of this Catherine Carr was lost for the rest of season through serious illness. The remainder of the season was better than expected, a fact which can be traced only to the brilliant work of the coach. Miss Mac should be commended for her tactfulness in preparing the girls for Baldwin's sports. We all hope for a successful finale in whatever she may attempt while coaching.

1929 INCOMPARABLr girls' baseball squad turned in a very compliment.uy The teams who conquered the Baldwinites were Halfway and Hazel Park, who becam~ victorious only after a long and stubborn struggle by the final losers. Miss Mac's prodigies outscored the opponents 142 to 109 in the seven games played. For its reward the able nine brought home the runner-up position in the "little six." With the Berkley game, -~nded the successful baseball careers of Annette Kiley, Patricia Chandler, Esther Kist, and the Coryell sisters, Gertrude and Margaret, whose absence left a large berth to fill in the oncoming season. However, the new material looks very promising to Miss McIntyre at this stage in the game of Baldwin's budding team. We are looking forward hopefully to the makings of some homerun queens in these recruits, who thus far appear ~ record, winning five games and losing only two.

L THOUGH TH E BALDWIN tennis team did not win all of its engagements on the

courts, the '29 season turned out as satisfactorily as expected. The star performers of the Maroon and White were Reinette and Catherine Carr and Frances Frye. Of this speedy trio Catherine Carr is the only one remaining, and her chief aids this year will probably be Jean Brooks and Peg Cooney. Out of seven games played the team won four, forfeited one, and lost the other two. This year Miss McIntyre's racketeers will be favored with a first class clay court, whereas in the preceding years the play ground was nothing above the ordinary. With no particularly outstanding hindrance in view, the team should be very successful this season.

~ ~ OME THINK THE world is made for ~ fun and frolic"-"And so do I." Can't you hear those sweet voices and the deep ones singing with all the pep and vim in the world? What a dreary place this world would be with its seriousness, its drabness, and its perpetual repetitions without its vanet1es, its little unexpected pleasures, its youth that just carries it along with its bursts of enthusiasm. Perhaps we might recall to your mind the story of the "Prince and the Pauper." Doesn't every king want at one time or another to be a hobo for just a day or two? Cast aside your mask of seriousness and enter these pages without a backward look to see if someone is looking at you to see if you are acting foolish. "Hence, loathed melancholy." Come enter here and bring a light heart, and a cheerful countenance.

The Importance of the Electrical Equipment On Your Car It must be kept in perfect working order. That is what we are here for. We do it for you quickly, at little cost and when you want it done. In these days of long mileage car owners are prone to forget about the importance of the electrical equipment. Batteries should be checked every two weeks and other electrical equipment should be inspected at regular intervals.
