Miss Olivia M. Pound, assistant principal, has through that position and as an adviser for the all girls league won the confidence of hundreds of girls who have attended Lincoln high school. One of Miss Pound's many duties is the adjustment of credits to fit the needs of the individual girl so that she will not be burdened with more work than she can physically stand. Often when a girl falls behind in her daily work a little help and encouragement from Miss Pound will enable her to continue with her studies. She is one of the closest and truest friends the girls of this school have.

Otto W. Hnckmilln

Otto Hackman, a member of the commercial department for several years, became assistant to the principal two years ago and since that time has been special adviser to the boys. Registration, changes in courses and the straightening of difficulties in which the boys become entangled, fall to the jurisdiction of Mr. Hackman who seems to understand their problems almost as well as do the boys involved. During a years leave Mr. Hackman served in the yeoman school of the navy and in the office of the hospital school. Aside from his duties at school he is an enthusiastic musician and finds enjoyment in golf and other athletics.

(for part of the year)

Timidly, eagerly, anxiously, expectantly, four hundred and twelve enthusiastic sophomores came to Lincoln high school with visions of knowledge to be gained and joys to be lived to the utmost. On that September day they were met by student council members who relieved them of many of their perplexities. The person~el of the class of 1930 was now completed by these newcomers plus the winter class and the group which had come from Prescott in January, 1927.

As a proper initiation into the activities of the school and as a demonstration to the upper classmen of their abilities, the sophomores presented an assembly. Don Abbott and Lowell Boomer, who later won first place in the state contest in trumpet and clarinet respectively, took part in the program. The others who assisted were Morris Poaster, Lucile Reilly, Doris Wilkins, Margaret Hulfish, Dorothy Whitney, Aileen Royce and Frank Wilson. So excellent was the performance that the juniors openly approved it, and even the seniors found nothing to criticize.

After some progress had been made in the business of getting acquainted and the more aggressive students had joined the various activities and organizations, the class elections were held. Donald Sa rbach proved the most popular candidate for the presidency, to be assisted by Estrid Anderson, vice-president; Don Abbott, secretary; Ruth Adams, treasurer; Leo McMahon, editor; and Robert Powell, sergeant-at-arms .

Discovering who's who among the "Sophies" was the main theme of the sophomore matinee party. Games, dancing and an entertaining program made the party enJoyable, and huge quantities of confetti lent a lively atmosphere.

Homer Turner was chosen as the president of the second semester class; Clyde Wedgewood, vice-president; Catherine Neal, secretary; Doris Wilkins, treasurer; Jane Foster, editor; and Bernard -Masterson, sergeant-at-arms. The class elected Ruth Adams and Raymond Mobley to the sophomore seats on the student council, and Martha Hershey represented the girls interests in the all girls league council. With

these leaders the modest and unassuming sophomores came into their own as audacious juniors.

During the first year the students had so closely observed the talents of their classmates that their choice of junior presidents was faultless. Estrid Anderson and •Bernard Masterson , first and second semester presidents respectively, guided the class over the difficulties of the second year. Lowell Boomer, vice-pre s ident; Ruth Adams, secretary; Leslie Witte, treasurer; Bernard Jennings, editor; and Clyde Wedgev, ood, sergeant-at-arms , served with Estrid during the first semester , and during the · second semester, Gerhard Prestegaard, Estrid Anderrnn , Ruth Adams , Henr y Keller and Harmon Miller held the corresponding offices. The junior student council members ,nre Estrid Anderson , Margaret Lapp, Doris Wilkins , Homer Turner , Donald Sarbach , and Morris Poaster.

The juniors proved their merits in dramatics when the y presented DeepfVater, a comedy drama by Lee Owen Snook, March 15 and 16, 1929. Mr. Snook , who honored the occasion by being present at the pla y , complimented the dramatic efforts of the ca s t and the excellent coaching of Miss Mary Y abroff. This play wa s of a more serious nature than is usually presented at the school , and was received favorably. The leads in the play were taken by Bernard Jennings, Clyde W edgvv o od , Lucile Reilly, Valentine Klotz and Helen Calh o un. Homer Turner served as business manager and D o roth y King as advertising manager.

The calendar then announced the ol ympics Olym,:, pu s it self never saw such an event. The juniors, with b=!~=-~======.! faces blacked to the point of non-recognition, carried their colors ( and their black) well, but after a · stiff fight were finall y downed by the seniors with a score of 65 to 55, though Joe Luc!-1singer did succeed in getting down the senior flag.

As the high light of the semester, the social event of the season, the proper climax for an interesting and succes s ful year , came the junior-senior part y Perfect hosts t o the seniors, the juniors secured the best to be had by gaining permis sion to hold the party in the ball room of the Cornhusker hotel. The gyp sy carni v al motif appeared in the colored lights, balloon v enders and mystic fortunes read in the palms of guests by Mi ss Valeria Bonnell , Mi ss Mar y Yabroff, Miss Elisabeth Wittmann, and Miss Louise Miller. Incidentally all the rivalry caused by the ol ympics was forgotten and a bond of friendship was again established between the two classes.

Ah! September again - but so different. The undistinguished sophomores , the jaunt y juniors had now become sen:ors. All hail to the seniors and may their power ever increase! Now came the chance that might never come again, the opportunity to exercise their super iority over the timid "s ophies" and presumptuous JUillOrS.

A satire by the old favorite , Sir James Barrie, en- •·• titled TheAdmirableCrichton, was presented by the senior class, December 13 and 14. The leading roles were taken b y Jane McLaughlin and Eldon Davis. Dorothy King, bminess manager, and Robert Powell, advertising manager, helped to carry the financial burden of the pla y with Miss Mary F. Jackson, chairman of the aud:ting committee. Miss Ellen Anderson, senior class sponsor, unfortunately suffered a severe accident and was unable to be with the class for several

months, but she remembered them all with a "Best-wishes" telegram on the night of their play. Mrs. Frances Rein carried out the work of both sponsors during this time and the success of the senior enterprise was largely due to her guid~nce.

Fuschia and white jockey caps and vests that looked -fresh from Agua Caliente, and Frenchy little scarfs and berets dotted the corridors and classrooms and were eyed enviously by underclassmen. Need more be said? It was senior color da y The seniors were led into the auditorium by Lucile Re illy: June president, and Lowell Boomer, January president. Seniors provided the program, which was closed with the singing of the class song by the entire class. A s the last echo of the song of I 930 died away, the senio1 s filed £edately from the auditorium sincerely enjoying the flatter ing silence granted them by their audience who had as yet not tasted the sweetness of a senior color day.

The other senior officers for the January class we1 e Ra y mond Mobley, vice-president; Marian Fleetwood , secretary; Bruce Kilbourne, treasurer; Joe Luchsinger , editor , and Robert Allen, sergeant-at-arms, and for the second semester class , Catherine Neal, vice-president; Arthur Weaver, secretary; Dorothy King, treasurer, who, because of the point system, resigned in favor of Don Cox; Oliver Soderlund, editor, and Gerhard Prestegaard, sergeant-at-arms. The senior representatives on the student council were Bernard Masterson, president; Margaret Lapp, vice-president; G~orgetta Kimse y, secretary; Donald Abbott, Bernard Jennings, Raymond Mobley , Estrid Anderson , Lowell Boomer, Helen Calhoun, Lucile Reilly, Clyde Wedgwood and Dorothy King. The vacancies on the council occasioned by the ineligibility and graduation of some members were filled by Burkitt Reynolds, Harvey Lanman , Helen Lindberg, Arthur Weaver, Breta Peterson, Homer Turner and Catherine Neal.

January 2-J., 1930, one hundred and thirty-two seniors reached the goal toward which their past three y ears of endeavor had been directed, the diploma. Eighteen of the graduates were given recognition for having been awarded membership in the • national honorary society. Elizabeth Ann Regan , one of the two senior speakers, chose as her topic TheLeagueofNationsandWhatItHasAccomplished and the other , John Bottorf, SupervisedClubsasaCrimePrevention.

After the lo ss of nearly one-fourth of their class , the rest of the group gazed over the auditorium for a new hand to place behind the steerin~ wheel and finally chose Harvey Lanman, who managed like a veteran during the la st seme t er. The other officers were Bernard Masterson, vice-president; Do1 Cox, secretary; Anne Bunting, treasurer; Valentine Klotz, editor, and Donald Edwards, sergeant-at-arm;.

The debate team, football team, Links board and staff and half of the student council members were all chosen from the senior class.

All over! Oh, no "Commencement" ended their school career, but in life - there are still unknown worlds to conquer with the same indubitable will with which they forged through their three years in Lincoln high school. But above all there will always be a binding tie of friendship among those who shared joys anrl sorrows, hopes and defeats for three years of happy school life in Linc oln high school

Wind

Wind is the symbol of youth, Of everything happy and gay, As it sweeps over hill and vale With never a care.

It howls on the ocean wild, It fills the sailors with dread, It leaves bare destruction behind, With never a care.

It sings the baby to sleep Or wakes him with its shriek, But ever the wind is free With never a care.

We may feel the wind as it blows, We may see the things that it does, But never long are we like the wind, With never a care.

Commercial, stenographic

Some one told me spring was near. I laughed and thought that some one queer.

Christmas was a little while ago, And do you hear those strong winds blow?

But then I heard a meadowlark This morning s~nging in the park.

I saw the buds on all the trees Waving proudly in the breeze.

Then, too, that silver moon tonight With myriad stars in radiance bright.

I saw rnme lovers hand in hand Tracing their names on the lakeshore sand.

Some one told me spring was near. I laughed and said, "No, spring is here".

Editori.-al

From the day the staff was announced till the last copy was taken to the printer, it was necessary to have the help and cooperation of the faculty and students of Lincoln high school in comp:ling information for the Links. One can not realize how many persons are needed in the publishing of a book until he has had some experience. To the many persons who have helped to make this book what it is, thanks is given.H. C. Mardis , the principal, has been a silent but important partner in the enterprise and has a ided the book many times with his wise and timely council. Mi s. Edna B. Williams, registrar, not only furnished the Links with accurate data but also supplied some of the necessary materials.

To Miss Helen Wilson a great deal of praise should be given for the art work that she supplied through her Links art class. Although not every member had work accepted for publication, the pieces that were submitted showed marked talent and continued effort. The letter:ng for the book was done by Paul MacLellan assisted by Sidney Dewey. The border design are the work of Lucille Lampert. The cover design contest was won by Philip Yost over fifty-three other entries. This is the greatest number of designs ever submitted for any Links cover contest.

For the picture of "The Sower" that appears in the views section the Links is indebted to Mrs. A. G. George, who gave the L=nks this picture from a file of over three hundred views that she has taken of the capitol during the period of the demolishing of the old and the erection of the new building.

The literature in the book was collected from their classes by many of the English teachers. To them and to Miss ~lie A. Putney, a sponsor of the writers club, acknowledgment is made for the pieces from their own students and from the writers club. Pauline Pike of the Advocate class wrote the history of that publication. Gretchen Schrag assisted in editing the copy and checking the names, Jack Hollingsworth and David Fowler helped in writing the boys sport stories, and Beverly Finkle wrote the olympics story.

Much of the financial success of the Links rests in the hands of the members of the two salesmanship classes conducted by Frank Kane, finance adviser for the annual.

Individual honors went to Arthur Weaver, who was made advertising managc.r and received a copy of the book. He sold two hundred and twenty dollars worth of advertising space, the largest amount ever sold by a student for the Links. Burdette Brownlee was second in the contest, his sales amounting to one hundred and forty-four dollars.

Dorothy Little, a member of this group, won the subscription contest with the sale of 7 5 books. Bernard Jennings was second with 60 subscriptions, and Edward Schaepe third with 54.

The other members of the advertising team are Ruth Dreith, Abe Grossman, Neil Hall, Donald Kline, ·Burdette Morris, Olive eill, Barrington Plumb, Xema Rightenour, Clyde Smith, Phil Smith, Paul Strauch, Everett Van Sickle, David W agenleitner and Marie Worster.

The Advocate, weekly publication of Lincoln high school, has been recognized as one of the best school newspapers in the United States. For two consecutive years it has won All American honor rating from the National Scholastic P ress association critical service, in which six hundred forty-four papers were judged this year. Georgetta Kimsey, of the first semester staff, was selected to represent the Advocate at the convention of the association, held in Chicago, December 5 to 7.

A large delegation from Lincoln high school attended the second annual Nebraska high school press convention at Fremont, April 4 and 5. Willadene Anton, business manager, led a round table discussion, and Miss Belle Farman, adviser of the staff, was elected president of the association. The convention next year will be held in Lincoln at the University of Nebraska.

First, second and third places in journalism were won in the Nebraska Wesleyan University academic contests by Herman Iselin, Vivian Price and Pauline Pike, students in the news writing classes, English 8 and English I 7.

Not more than thirty students who have completed English 8 are admitted to English I 7. The second semester staff was a selected group chosen from fifty-eight applicants. In order that the student may receive a general knowledge of reporting, edit"ng, and headline writing he is given a new position a t the beginning of each six weeks perod

"Mucho tiene que hacer quien ha de dar gusto a todos." That lucidly flowing phrase is an old Spanish proverb which, translated freely reads, "It is hard to please everybody." However, it seems that nearly all the assemblies have capt_ivated the attention of the majority.

The student body met the new principal, Harold C. Mardis, for the first time on September 25. Miss Olivia M. Pound, assistant principal, introduced M. C. Lefler, the superintendent, who in turn presented Mr. Mardis. Musical numbers were furnished by the girls string quartet.

With hopefulness, enthusiasm and the prophecy for a triumphant football season the initial athletic assembly on October 3 gave the team a hearty send-off to their first game. After a short talk by W. H. Browne, coach, a rousing new song, Sons oftheBlackandRed, was introduced by Mr. Mardis, and adopted enthusiastically.

The advanced orchestra made its first public appearance of the year in an assembly held Thursday, October IO. Seventy-five percent of the group which in 1929 won the national contest in Iowa City appeared on the stage under the leadership of Charles B. Righter and gave the program. Concertino by C. M. von Weber was the solo played by Lowell Boomer with the accompaniment of the orchestra.

A chalk talk by Earl Johnson, physical education director of the Lincoln school system, illustrated the fundamental of football in an assembly held October I I. The band, under the direction of Charles B. Righter, played two special numbers, Fidelity March and Adoration.

"The four things necessary to happiness are to be honest, not a thief ; to be a self starter, not a quitter; to be industrious, not a loafer; and to be truthful, not a liar," stated the Rev. F. F. Travis, principal speaker at the Hi-Y all boys assembly, October 15. Following this talk, four piano solos were played by Burnham Anderson.

It was with pleasure that the assembly audience awaited the opening note oi the ValseCaprice, the first number on the Chenoweth program given October 17. Wilbur Chenoweth is one of the best known of Lincoln musicians and also a composer of note. All his piano numbers and al o those sung by Miss Lucille Cline, an instructor of voice, were of his composition.

In spite of the fact that we cannot all be Carusos or Galli Curcis, nearly all of us erijoy singing now and then. Group singing in the assembly, October 24, proved to be popular and "very well done" as Charles B. Righter remarked.

Color day, Lincoln high school's annual patriotic celebration, when students and faculty alike are variously but enthusiastically decorated in red and black, the school colors, always merits an assembly. At the assembly, October 25, Oz Black flashed his cartoons; the council gave an original sketch; W. H. Browne spoke and the band played several pieces

The playlet represented the choosing of a suitable wife by th~ haughty king, SpiritofLincolnHighSchool, who finally married the SuccessfulSeason, winning all

games with good spmt. Bernard Jennings, Clyde Wedgwood, Raymond Mobley, Arthur Bailey, Richard Cullen, and Elmer Anderson were in the sketch.

Senior talent, although it may appear many times, is never so aptly displayed nor so heartily appreciated as on senior color day, which came ovember 8. The program consisted of a try-out for a vaudeville circuit.

The part of the manager of the circuit was played by Alex Stoddard. Anne Bunting acted as his secretary. Those trying out were the "Sweetness Trio" including Marian Wolfe, Frank Greenslit and Alfred Moses; a group of players, Elizabeth Betzer , Valentine Klotz, De Maries Hilliard, Lucile Reilly and Eldon Davis who gave a one-act play entitled TheNewPoor; Wilhelmein Sprague who danced and football men who sang TheAnvilChorus.

Mi8s Ruth Seabury, secretary of the American board of commissioners for foreign missions of the Congregational churches, was the speaker at the assembly November 14.

"Don't go through life dilly-dallying, with no problems, just merely existing and trying to do as little as possible for the glory of the world," was the closing remark of the addre8s delivered November 15, by Dr. Henry R. Cloud, president of the Indian Institute of w ichita, Kansas.

As a culmination of book week an assembly was held Friday, November 22. The program consisted of four dramatic sketches, a violin solo by Alfred Moses and the offering of awards for the winners of the poetry, prose and poster contests.

Under the subdued lights of purple twilight, which lent enchantment to the "circus", given by the all girls league council, November 23, the circus performers entertained for a pleased audience. A ring master in the person of Breta Peterson, a toy band and tumbling clowns added to the general atmosphere of the sawdust ring. The program included a toe dance by Lois Rathburn, two whistling solos by Georgetta Kimsey, three vocal selections by Lucile Reilly, a butterfly dance by Ruth Weaver and a dance by a remarkable horse made up of Harriet Woods and Martha Hershey and a blanket.

After a successful football season when the team feels a sense of lassitude, there is 8till one more thrill awaiting them. This comes with the awarding of the letters first squad men received their L's at the hands of Coach W. H. Browne.

The second dance drama to be presented in the Lincoln high school all girls assembly, was given. December 12, by the members of the dancing class. The drama, ADayinFlorence, included solo dances by the leads, Nina, the flower vender, and Guido, the balloon man. These parts were taken by Wyona Baeke and Georgia Kilgore.

The singing of familiar Christmas caroh, the playing of soft music by the orchestra, and an inspiring talk by someone who has caught the genuine Christmas spirit never fails to cast a magical spell over the high school audience.

At the first Christmas a8sembly, December 19, Rev. Irv!ne Inglis of the Vine Congregational Church spoke on the different things that go into the "Christmas package." A special string orchestra played two numbers and the combined junior and senior girls octets sang two old carols. Following two selections from Handel's Messiah by the advanced glee clubs, the audience joined in the singing. As a beautiful impressive close, SilentNight was given by the entire assembly.

The 8econd Christmas assembly program was given Friday, December 20. Carols were sung by students and the glee clubs together, the band played a special number, the senior girls octet sang two songs and the Christmas reading, WhytheChimes Rang, was given by Mrs. Mildred Roger Wishart of the dramatic department of the Univers ity of Nebra8ka. Following this the girls junior glee club sang two selections and the girls string quartet played a number, after which the junior glee club sang

• Christmas melodies. This assembly ended in the same impressive manner as the preceding one.

Under the blazing sun of the Sahara desert, former Lincoln high school students adventuring in that part of the world, met and decided to present a program for their amusement while waiting for a bus to be repaired. All of this took place in a sketch written and presented by the student council at the a sembly, January IO. Bernard Jennings, Leo Hill, Arthur Bailey, Madeline Brown, Marguerite Hollenbeck, Alice Denton and Ruth Skiles took part.

The program of the assembly January 15 was given for the recognition of the students recently elected to the national honor society. Alumni members of the Lincoln high school chapter of the society presented the program which opened with vocal selections by Roger Robinson. Emanuel Wishnow played a violin solo after which Augusta French gave a group of amusing reading

The basketball season was officially opened in an assembly on Friday, January 16. Coach W. H. Browne talked of the desire of the team to be the first Missouri Valley high school athletic conference champions.

TheFingerofGod, a one-act play, was the main feature on the Mummers assembly program that was pre ented twice, February 13 and 17. The actors in this play were Chester Hunt, Dorothy Frankforter and Leo Hill. Preceding the play Lucile Reilly read TheTwoFaces, and Walker Cordner sang OntheRoadtolvlandalay. The prog .ram was announced by Bernard Jennings, president of the Mummers.

Representing the Girl Reserves organization wh :ch sponsored the all-girls assembly, February 26, was its double octet which sarig two numbers. Another group of girls presented TheBurglar, a farce. The girls who took part were Gladys Bross, Elizabeth Whitney, Ruby Kleinbecker, Elizabeth Bushee and Faith Arnold.

The a capella choir, under the direction of Glen M. Case, sang two songs in the musical assemblies held February 2 7. The girls string quartet played a number and Marian Wolfe played to the accompaniment of two harps. The harpists, Ruth Hill and Genevieve Smith, then gave a duet.

The advertising campaign of the junior play ended with an assembly on February 28. A portion of the play wa ~ presented before Miss Frances McChesney, dramatic coach, introduced the characters. The musical part of the program was given by the junior girls octet who sang Allah'sHoliday by Friml and MyLoverIsaFisherman by Strickland.

A Chinese physician, Dr. Mei Yung Ting, who has accomplished much for her own people, addressed the assembly, Tuesday, March 4. Another distinguished assembly visitor was orman Thomas, the noted socialist and candidate for the presidency of the United States in the 1928 election, who spoke at the March 5 assembly.

Mrs. Margaret Proctor Smith, who spoke of China and the high degree of cuiture she found when she was there, appeared in the assembly on March 13.

The alumni assembly program was presented Friday, March 14, by well-known graduates of Lincoln high school. Lulu Jo Hyland sang ToaHilltop and Mah LindyLou. She was accompanied by Harriet Daly. The highly dramatic play, The J7 aliant, wa read by Margaret H ulfish.

Dana X. Bible, head athletic coach at the University of ebraska, spoke at the assembly, Monday, March 17, held for the awarding of L's to the first basketball team.

Two talented graduates of Lincoln high school presented the program for the assembly, Friday, March 21. Morris Poaster opened the program by singing Less ThantheDust,TheKashmiriSong and TillIWake, all by Finden.- Richard Page,

a member of the university players, entertained the audience by reading a humorous negro selection, TheMelancholyDame, by Octavus Roy Cohen. '

H. C. Gossard of Wesleyan University spoke on the subject of choosing one:s vocation at the all-boys assembly, March 26. The assembly was sponsored by the Hi-Y and was given in connection with the annual "Find Yourself" campaign.

Acts that were like the ones to be presented at joy night were given April 4 and 7 as assembly programs. Two-piano numbers played by Maxine Smith and Ruth Scott introduced the popular note carried out in most of the other performances. Two CarbonCopies was a humorous dialogue between two black-faced comedians, Charles Steadman and George Pillers A boys quartet composed of George Wikoff, Delbert Jackson, James Harris and Arthur Betz sang, and Madeline Bertrand gave a tap dance. An act by Ruth Weaver, Betty Christensen and Ruth DeKlotz, ended with the singing of DownBytheWinegarWoiks.

In the all girls league assembly, April 9, surrounded by her lifeless dollies, Leai1 Carlson read from a large story book about another little girl whose dolls were alive and would entertain her. Jean Wilhelmy sang Mother Goose rhymes; Ruth Weaver and Imogene Lapp tumbled in as Raggedy Ann and Andy; Dorothy Lee danced; Katherine Masterson as a clown did somersaults; Marian Brown read two selections and Lois Rathburn gave a toe dance. DeMaries Hilliard closed the program by inviting all the girls to the doll party to be given by the league.

Led by E. F. Burke, the first aid team of the Lincoln telephone and telegraph company gave demonstrations in applying bandages for many different kinds of injuries, in the assemblies of May I and May 6.

Illustrating his talk with slides showing points of interest about the Nebraska state capitol, Leonard Nelson, chief guide at the capitol, and former member of Lincoln high school, spoke in the assembly May 8.

Debate in Lincoln high school is divided into two courses. The first is English IO, or beginning debate, where the fundamentals of this art are learned. The second is English 18, or advanced debate, where the subject is taken up more fully and preparation is made on the state question.

An increased interest for debate was shown this year by the larger number of students who participated in this activity. The first few weeks were spent in collect· ing and organizing material on the state question which was used throughout the season, "Resolved: that the present jury system in criminal trials in the United States should be abolished."

As none of the Lincoln debaters had ever had any previous experience in interschool contests a great deal of valuable experience was obtained in several practice debates with Beatrice, Omaha Central and Seward. The squad during the first semester was composed of Lyle Ensor, Gretchen Maggi, Henry Keller, Joe Culbertson, Dan Easterday, Elmer Anderson, Harold Butler, Robert McCandless, Robert Lantz, Harold Soderlund, Donald Quinn, Chester Hunt and Alfred Adams.

An interesting debate was held on the evening of December IO with Omaha Central in the Lincoln high school auditorium. After each team had presented their arguments, the decision was awarded the visitors by a critic judge who remarked, "I did not know until the very last which side I thought had won." The home team, upholding the negative, was made up of Alfred Adams, Donald Quinn and Chester Hunt.

The first tournament e,xperience came to the debaters at the Midland College invitation tourney held in Fremont. Twenty-five teams from the state were entered in this contest, including all the strongest teams. In the first round Lincoln won from Snyder with but little difficulty. Omaha Central emerged with a two to one decision from a fiercely fought contest staged in the second round. They continued in this tournament to win the finals by defeating the strong Fremont team. Lincoln supported the affirmative in both these debates, the team being composed of Harold Soderlund, Chester Hunt and Alfred Adams. The other members of the squad who made the trip were Robert McCandless, Robert Lantz and John D. Hansen, coach.

A few weeks later all three of Lincoln high school's debate teams made a twoday trip to Omaha and Council Bluffs. A great deal of experience and practice in

\n derso n Quinn So d erl a nd Hunt E as terd a y :M:r. H a n en Culbert s on Lantz A d ams McC a ndle s s Butler

inter chool debates was secured as two of the teams had four debates and the third had five during this short time. The Omaha chools who furnished the opposition in thee argument were Central, Torth, South, Tech and Creighton University fresh.men. In Council Bluff , Abraham Lincoln and Thomas Jefferson high schools were encountered. The hospitality of Omaha Central, who provided a banquet and alrn arranged all of the debates, was especially appreciated by the Lincoln teams.

On March I 8, the fir t round of the district tournament wa held with Syracuse. Lincoln won this debate by a two to one decision , arguing on the negative side of the state que tion concerning the abolition of the jur y sy tern in criminal trials.

The following week Lincoln was host to two teams, one from Steele City and the other from Beatrice In the Steele City contest a critic judge gave the deci ion to the Lincoln debater$ who were arguing on the negative. The Beatrice contest was a no-decision debate.

The second round of the district tournament, held on March 30, proved to be fatal for the Lincoln high team. They were defeated by the Jackson high squad in a heated and do e debate , lo ing by a two to one decision. The loss of this debate put the team out of the state tournament.

In the final round, corning on April 7, the Lincoln arguers vanquished the team from Wesleyan Preparatory. The tournament team was made up of Che ter Hunt, Alfred Adam , Harold Soderlund , Donald Quinn and Harold Butler , the la t three named each participating in one conte t. With the winning of this debate the sea on wa brought to a close , a eason mixed with v ictory and defeat, furni hing both plea ure and valuable experience for all the members of the quad.

An annual event which is held in the oring and spon ored by the debate team 1s the intercla$S debate tournament. This afford an opportunity for many students other than the team, who are intere ted in debate to try their argumentative ability. Try-outs are held for each class; the winning three in each group then represent their da in the tournament. The winners of the tourney are awarded the Magee cup for interclass debate.

Members of the all girls league council, 5ix seniors, four juniors and two sophomore girls, are elected at the beginning of each school year by girls on the student council. The purpose of this organization is to promote friendship and good will among the girls of the school, all of whom are members of the league.

The first of the two all girls assemblies held each year by this council was given to advertise a circus party. A ring master, a toy band, and animals added to the general atmosphere of a circus tent.

Live dolls performed at another party. The assembly was an AliceinWonderland story. As the little girl read the story, live dolls appeared in the character of Raggedy Ann and Andy. Tumbling clowns, songs and tap and toe dancing comprised the program.

Be ides furnishing entertainments the organization gathered toys during the Christmas holidays and gave them to the children of the Bancroft kindergarten.

This year an important enterprise of the home room representatives was the leading of the discussion periods, the aim of which was to learn the public opinion of the students in regard to certain unwritten laws and standards of Lincoln high. As a result of these discussions they were able to formulate a code of ethics for the student body. Some of the resolutions adopted are as follows: Traffic should keep to the right and keep moving in the halls; gum chewing should be inconspicuous and permitted at the discretion of the individual teacher; hand clapping is the only form of applause that is generally in good taste; the individual teachers shall continue to determine what constitutes tardiness to class; laughter is in order when something genuinely humorous happens and when it is not at the expense of someone.

The representatives also assisted in guarding halls during lunch period, selling \'.Olors for color day, collecting class dues and performing other necessary duties for the school.

The representatives are elected by the home rooms and serve for one semester. The student council members are not permitted to be representatives but are members ex-officio of this group.

Harvey Lanman and Robert Lantz served as the chairmen for this group which is directed by Miss Helen Dunlap.

§tudent Council

A good example of successful student cooperative ·government is furnished by the student council of Lincoln high school, for during eleven years of existence it has done much for the school and for the students. This year the council under the sponsorship of Miss Helen Dunlap has had a very successful year. The council members who are elected by the students have assisted in guarding halls, selling handbooks and athletic tickets, introducing the new students and visitors into the school and enforcing the point system. The y have given four assemblies and they sponsor the matinee parties. Under the management of the council the annual joy night was staged in the court of King Joy. Lords, ladies and other people of the court were in attendance. Joy night was given April 25 and 26 before capacity houses.

• In 1919 at the meeting of the nat:onal association of secondary school principals at Chicago, Illinois, a propo al was made for the e tablishing of an honor society in the secondary schools of the country. 'fhe business was referred to a committee which reported in 1921 at Atlantic City and offered for the approval of the body a plan for the founding of such a body. The plan was accepted and a constitution composed The purpose of this group as stated in the con titution is "to create enthusiasm for cholarship, to timulate a desire to render service, to promote leadership and t o develop character in students of the American econdary schools." Since 1921, 800 charters have been given to school desiring chapters and at the present time between 20,000 and 25,000 students wear the national honor society pin repre enting the torch held by the arm of youth. The members are chosen on their willingness to cooperate in any school activity such as selling tickets, acting as guides, maintaining a loyal school attitude, acting as big brothers to undercla men or assisting classmates who find their daily work difficult, upholding cholarship and howing initiative in serving the school.

Although some schools require a person to participate in activitie in order to be eligible for this organization, Lincoln high school has no such plan for choosing them The upper third of the senior class in scholarship is nominated and the list submitted to the teachers for election. Only fifteen percent of the class can be made members .

Art Cluh

The art club is organized to arouse and stimulate the interest of art students ·m Lincoln high school. At the meetings the members hear outside speakers give illustrate~ talks on such subjects as MuralDecorations,ColorPhotograph}',Antiques and ArtintheHome. These students know that if the eye is trained for beauty they can see it anywhere. The purpose of the club is to train the mind and the emotions to a keener appreciation of all art, and to put into reality the wondrous beauties of nature.

In May the members gave their first exhibition. The best work of the students was displayed so that pupils might pause in the halls and observe what sort of thing the organization is attempting to do.

The chemistry club was organized in 1914 in o·rder that students interested in experiments not covered in the regular course might be able to investigate some of the mysteries of the scientific world. University profesrnrs lecture at the meetings on such fascinating educational topics as planets, plastics and magic. The illustrated talk on the use of liquid air by Professor Jiles W. Haney was one of the entertaining addresses.

Miss Mariel C. Gere, head of the science department, is the sponsor to whom a large measure of the success of the club is due.

Any student not enrolled in a chemistry class may become a mt1nber of the club by attending three meetings.

'Eagerness to become conversant with modern business methods, ambition to encourage a friendly spirit among commercial s tudents and a desire to learn the needs of the community through the study of local problems, were the reasons for the formation of the commercial club in I 92 7. To emphasize these ideas this year, speeches were given by experienced men of the business and educational world.

The members became philanthropists when they bought four pencil sharpeners to be used in commercial classes, and equipped chairs in the bookkeeping rooms with rubber tips. Club Clatter, the only monthly paper in Lincoln high school, which 1s written, edited and publ:shed by the club editor and his staff, is distributed at each meeting. A page of cartoons is the new feature of the paper this year. This section depicts great moments in the lives of certain members. There are also accounts of the success of former members who have received positions through the placement bureau. This bureau, which is sponsored by the commercial department in collaboration w:th the club members, undertakes finding positions for students who complete the commercial course sa tisfactoril y

At the meetings there are special programs. Two of these were furnished by the Malcolm studio of expression and the dramatic students of Irving junior high school. At another meeting an exhibition of typewriting was given. In addition to the usual picnic and party the club gave a commercial matinee party as an attraction for new members.

Ever since the organization of the club, Forum presidents have spoken the words, "The meeting will please come to order," with a little more pomp and feeling than presidents of other clubs, because it is the Forum which stresses the art of oration. During the semester each member is expected to contribute his bit to the bi-monthly speeches and the parliamentary drill, and in this effort he unconsciously gleans a knowledge of the correct use of the words in the English language.

In addition to their more serious activities the sixty members have enjoyed a party, a banquet and a picnic. Miss Elsie Engli h was recently replaced by a new sponsor, :Miss Margaret Davis.

The group of girls one sees trudging over the prairies isn't a group of vagabonds at all. They are Lincoln high girls enjoying one of the frequent diversions of the girls athletic association. In addition to the pleasure of their sports they are earning a few of the 800 points required for an L. The girls develop good sportsmanship and combine fun with health by giving parties for girls interested in athletics, and by taking charge of concessions at the football games. Their desire is expressed in their motto:

"We, as members of G. A. A., Play the game for the game's sake. We try to be friendly and just, to Honor the victor, have pride in success, Hold G. A. A. ideals in trust."

The Lincoln Hi-Y club is affiliated with the National Hi-Y movement, which has more than one hundred thousand boys enrolled. One high school boy in thirteen in the United States is the wearer of the Hi-Y pin. "To create, maintain and extern! throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character," is the aim of the Hi-Y club. The slogan is "Clean speech, clean sports, clean scholarship and clean living."

Lincoln is fortunate in having a Hi-Y club house, the only one in the country. The Hi-Y club meets every Tuesday evening at 6 :15 for supper at the Hi-Y building.

• The program consists of devotions, music and entertainment, discussion of life situations and addresses by prominent men. During the year a number of special features are enjoyed such as the annual banquet to the football team, father's night, mother and son banquet, the furnishing of a service squad for the state basketball tournament, the "Find Yourself" campaign, and the sending of delegates to the state older boys conference, and local and State Hi-Y camps.

Sometimes in the scramble to get the best things out of life one forgets perhaps the most important essential in harmonious living - the home. The girls in the home economics group realize the advantages to be gained by making better homes. The members have taken time from the hurry of school activities to think of • others less fortunate than they. Although the work is not entirely of a charitabie nature, "good-will" baskets were taken to needy families during the holiday seasons and a Christmas party was given for a group of orphans.

~ummeF§

Interest in drama was clearly shown by the two hundred students who tried out for ~he Mummers, the dramatic organization of the school. Forty-two persons were admitted this year.

The annual stage production of the Mummers this year was TheRearCar given before two capacity houses. Under the direction of Miss Frances McChesney the cast earned praise for the finish with which all the parts were taken. All attendance records since 1920 were broken. The sum of $601.25 netted from the production was used for further improvement of the auditorium. The Mummers, being one of the richest organizations of the school through the cordial support given to its plays by the students, was a liberal contributor to this fund, giving a total of $500 this year. The Mummers hope to convert room 326 into a little theatre by installing curtains and scenery for the stage.

A Christmas party with Christmas trees, a Santa Claus and presents, was given jointly by the Mummers and the Forum. The members had fun with their presents, \Yhich were later given to children of the city.

The meetings of the Mummers are of unusual interest to the students because of the numerous speakers who appear on the programs. Among these are lvir. Herbert Yenne, Mrs. Ada C. Malcolm, Mr. Zolley Lerner and Mr. Cyril Coombs One-act plays, both original and copyrighted, readings, musicals, dances and summaries of the leading plays and biographies of the leading actors of the day constitute the programs.

To a person who has spent hours of arduous effort in pract1cmg music, 1t 1s a genuine pleasure to forget for a time the bustle of reality in the mood expressed by a composer. Because such opportunities were appreciated and desired by Lincoln high school musicians, the Orpheons, which as the name implies, is derived from the name of the Greek god of music, Orpheus, was organized.

With the aid of Charles B. Righter, Glen M. Case, Miss Helen Stowell and Miss Lucy M. Haywood, the club took an active part in the annual mid-year concert, TheMikado~ and the five vesper concerts. The preliminary contest for the district contest at Geneva was another of the music activities sponsored by this club. From the forty-three instrumentalists and vocalists who tried out, a cellist, a soprano and a string and vocal quartet were chosen. This organization also provided financial support to the soloists and to the glee club, the orchestra and band which represented our school in the state music contest at Hastings.

The meetings are unusually well attended because of the well planned programs which are presented. The members of the club talk about their instruments, play solos and study the lives and works of musicians and leading composers of the day. A Valentine party was the social function of the Orpheons given for the participants in the mid-year concert

R.adiolink~

Several years ago if you had said "radio" to a friend, he would probably have looked at you in wonderment and surprise. Even now most of us have only vague ideas of the possibilities of the invent:on. There is, however, a group of boys interested in the technicalities of the radio who were the organizers of the Radiolinks club in i928.

During the past semester talks by radio authorities concerning reception, receivers and transmitters were given. This spring the club joined with the Cornhuskcr radio club in promoting the Radio Interference League. In competition with each other the boys constructed simple sets so that they might gain an elementary knowledge of the radio and its action.

In the language of chivalry ·'Round Table" signifies an organization of King Arthur's knights. If Lincoln high school had a dictionary of local expressions the definition of "Round Table" would be a club organized especially for the girls in the normal training department who expect to make teaching their vocation.

These future teachers meet on the first and third Friday of every month to discuss just how and what the coming generation must be taught. Often at their meetings they have a special speaker or a musical and dramatic program. The club also put on an act for joy night.

Students are elected to membership in the writers club if their manuscripts pass the membership committee, whose duty it is to read, criticize and approve literary work submitted by pupils. The fundamental aims of the club are to stimulate a desire for self-expression by means of writing and to promote an appreciation of this art.

• The programs of the bi-monthly meetings are composed of the reading of original short stories, poems and book reviews. This year the writers club is planning to publish a book containing work by members of the student body of Lincoln high school. At the St. Patrick's reception for new members everyone was required to kiss the Blarney Stone. Another activity was the annual picnic which took place in the spring. TheOldHomestead, an old fashioned melodrama, was presented at joy night by seven boys of this organization.

Opern

The Orpheons presented the advanced glee clubs in a Japanese comic opera by W. S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan, TheMikadoJ on May 23 and 24. The opera is familiar to a great many people because it is an old favorite and has been presented twice in this high school, the last time being in r 920.

When the opera was chosen, no one anticipated the difficulty that would attend the selecting of a cast. After six weeks of practicing no one was sure who would play the part of N anki-Poo. It was finally decided to let two boys share honors, one appearing in one act and the other in another. The chorus had to concentrate on learning the technique of the fan. A usual sight was a hundred people all flicking their fans in unison.

The theater orchestra was selected early so that Glen M. Case, director, might be able to have an orchestra that would fully realize what it was doing. For two weeks before the actual presentation this year this group of selected musicians met in the auditorium every night for three hours to rehearse. The members grew to understand the story and were able to add just that much more to the success of the opera.

Ad..,nnced Glee Club•

An entirely new feature of the glee clubs this year was the formation of an a capella choir. Although the Lincoln high school glee clubs have done some singing in public without accompaniment, there has never before been a group organized to do onl y that kind of work. According to Glen M. Case, instructor, this group has the best mixed harmony he has heard s:nce he has been at Lincoln high school.

The choir made its initial appearance at a vesper concert on November r 7. It also sang for the Rotary club, the schoolmasters club and the mid-year concert.

This organization, which has approximately one hundred members, is composed of the combined bo ys and girls advanced glee clubs. Instead of meeting separately, as in former years, the boys and girls meet together in the auditorium on :Monday, Wednesday and Friday. On Tuesday and Thursday they meet as separate glee clubs.

The girls advanced glee club , directed by Miss Helen Stowell, and the boys advanced glee club , under the direction of Glen M . Case, sang for a vesper concert, the mid- y ear concert , the Kiwanis club, the teachers convention, and the Christmas assembly. Ru th Scott and Maxine Smith were the accompanists for the girls, and Esther Fuen11ing and Mildred Walker accompanied the boys.

Junior Glee Club

To be admitted to the junior glee club is to achieve the first step toward the advanced glee clubs and the a capella choir. The members of this group are selected from the chorus classes by individual try-outs. Three times a week the class met t() work on such pieces as Sylvia,TheBellsofSt.Michael'sTower and DeepRiver. Most of the period was spent in working out various parts of the songs. Four broken batons are material proof of the strenuous practice. However, the students who endured were given a good foundation for more difficult work.

A new system of promotion was adopted this year. Every person in the organization was required to sing a solo, a standard classical number, in order to get credit or obtain advancement. After each selection Glen M. Case, the director, gave his criticisms and made his decisions as to whether the student had gained enough to merit credit in the course.

Their only public performance was in the mid-year concert where the excellence of their work in harmony and intonation was particularly notable. Variation from the routine of work was produced by programs presented by the talented membe1s who furnished entertainment such as reading, dancing, singing and playing.

The girls who accompany the glee club are Katherine Donis and Velma _ Smith.

The girls junior glee club is a comparatively new organization, having been in existence only two years. Besides their regular study of music, the girls present programs within their own organization. The programs, consisting of reading$, dances, vocal and instrumental solos and duets, are unusually interesting and varied. The purpose of these performances is primarily to accustom the girls to singing in public.

A cantata, PanonaSummerDay, by Paul Bliss, was presented by th:s group at an evening meeting of the Orpheons and at an assembly.

Blossom Tamey, Nadine Wheeler, and Ruth Scofield are the accompanist.

1 othing is so st1rnng as mm.ic by a band, particularly when that band is a state music contest winner. In Lincoln high school we have just such an organization whose activities are not limited to football games alone but to numerous concerts. No football game is ever complete without the band, of course, but that is a minor part of the work considering that this year our band played for many civic clubs, the Rotar y club, the Kiwanis club and for the Nebraska state teachers association convention, mid-year concert and the June commencement exercises.

This year the band has undertaken more difficult numbers than they ever have attempted before. Among these selections are WeddingDayatTroldhaugen by Grieg, Orpheus overture by Offenbach and Jl;JilitarySymphony by Haydn. The remarkable playing of this band caused Carl L. King, one of the judges at Hastings, to say, "And, of course , we know who wins first place. And this band will be the winner of the national champiomhip in a few years."

The success of the band is largely due to Charles B. Righter, though every member is capable. The drum major for the first semester was Bernard Jennings.

Ad..,nnced Orche•trn

The advanced orchestra has been greatly improved during the past year, both · in musicianship and instrumentation. This year two harps, sev~ral violins, violas, cellos, string basses, and a tuba were added.

A large part of this years work was spent on the overture to Die Jl1 eistersinger, by Wagner, the required number for the national orchestra contest, and on Les Preludes, by Liszt, the selected number.

Lincoln had a double interest in the contest for it was held in this city, and the Lincoln high school orchestra, which won first place last year, was an entrant. Hammond, Indiana, and Flint, Michigan, which placed second and third, respectively, last year, also competed again.

The eight men who were chosen to judge the contest are all prominent figures in the musical world. They were selected by the national bureau for the advancement of music of New York, under whose direct supervision the contest was conducted.

The success of the orchestra is due almost entirely to Charles B. Righter, the director, for it is the director who has the difficult task of selecting, training and guiding the members of his orchestra. "Choosing the member of the orchestra is a matter which deserves much careful thought on the part of the director," says Mr. Righter, in an article which appeared in the MusicalObserver. "The members of the Lincoln orchestra are chosen for certain rather well defined qualities, partly musical and partly personal. Dependabilit y is placed at the top of the list. Interest in the work is next. General scholarship is third and last of all, actual playing ability and musicianship."

In the state high school music contest, which was held at Hastings, Lincoln high school made an excellent showing. Lincoln fulfilled the motto, " ot to win the prize, not to beat an opponent; but to pace each other on the road to excellence," and thereby was able to gain both prizes and experience. The sweepstake trophy was won for the third time, and thereby became the permanent property of the school. The entrees were the advanced orchestra, the band, the girls glee club, the girls string quartet, the girls vocal quartet and two soloists.

The orchestra and band both won first place. According to Carl King, one of the judges, Lincoln's band promised to hold a national championship in a few years. The string quartet placed first in the small instrumental groups The vocal quartet received fourth place in competition with fifteen other groups. Ruth Sibley won first place among the cellists and Lucile Reilly, third among the sopranos.

The judges, all nationally prominent musicians, were introduced at the close of the contest. They were N. de Rubertis, conductor of the Little Symphony orchestra at Kansas City, Missouri; Carl King, bandmaster and composer, of Des Moines; Jacob Evanson, director of the Flint, Michigan, a capella choir; Paul McCollin, head of the department of music at Morningside College, Sioux City, Iowa; Albert Beck , composer and piano teacher at Council Bluffs; and L. E. Waters of Des Moines.

~id - 11e i11F Con ce r t

For thirteen years the musical organizations in Lincoln high school have been presenting mid-year concerts. Not one, however, has equaled the concert given on January 17 and 18. The success of the previous performances and the efforts of the business staff this year made it possible for this concert to be presented two nights.

The groups which participated in the concert were the advanced orchestra, band, advanced glee clubs, junior glee club, a capella choir, and the girls octet. Marjorie Compton and Lorraine Hummel, assisted by the a capella choir, sang BeautifulSavior, by Christiansen. Frank Greenslit played a trombone solo, Wagner's Songtothe EveningStar. He ,~·as accompanied by the orchestra.

The program was closed by the Lincoln high school advanced orchestra. Besides several other numbers the orchestra played parts of LesPreludes, by Liszt, one of the numbers for the national contest.

The artistic success of the concert was due to the music instructors, Charles B Righter, Glen M. Ca e and Miss Helen Stowell. Edward Bloom, business manager, and Leo Hill, publicity manager, were largely responsible for its financial success.

The junior and senior octets fill an important place in the musical activities of the school. These groups, under the direction of Miss Helen Stowell, are much in demand by outside organizations as well as for school performances.

The senior octet sang for a parent-teacher association meeting at Capitol school, the installation of Job's Daughters and the mid-year concert. The junior octet sang for the East Lincoln chapter of the Eastern Star. The combined octets sang for the Rotary club, for a teachers meeting at Park school and for an assembly.

The accompanist for the senior octet was Ruth Scott; for the junior group, Maxine Smith.

The nat:onal orchestra contest was held in Lincoln on May 29, 30 and 3 I. The three principal orchestras which entered were the Lincoln; Hammond, Indiana; and Flint, Michigan, groups which placed first, second and third, respectively, at the Iowa City contest last year.

The securing of Rudolph Ganz, director of the Chicago Musical College and internationally famous musician, as a judge was particularly fortunate. Among the others who offi,ciated were Carl Busch of the Kansas City Horner conservatory, Kansas City, Missouri; Will Earhart, director of music in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, schools; E. H. Wilcox, assistant director of the school of music of the University of Iowa, Iowa City; and David E. Mattern of the University School of Music, Ann Arbor, Michigan. Each of these men is recognized for his music accomplishments. The Lincoln men who helped to make a success of the contest were 0. H. Bimson, general contest chairman, and Ted Sick, general chairman of the junior division of the chamber of commerce contest committee.

Y e•per Concert•

The vesper concerts, since the series was started eight years ago, have steadily increased in popularity. This year three of the concerts were presented by the advanced orchestra, one by the advanced glee clubs, and one by the band. Such well known soloists as Parvin Witte, tenor; Hermann Decker, baritone; and Wilbur Chenoweth, piano; appeared on the programs. Mr. Chenoweth played several of his latest compositions, some of which were still in the hands of the printer.

A quartet composed of Miss Vera Upton, Mrs. R. 0. Hummel, Homer Compton, and E. C. Boehmer , sang in one of the concerts. They were accompanied by l\.1rs. Edith B. Ross.

On another occasion, the Doane college string trio-C. Burdette Wolfe, violin; Herbert Gray, cello, and Arthur Byler, piano-played to an appreciative audience. These concerts, which are under the auspices of the board of education , are arranged by Charles B. Righter.

ln•trument.-1

f;roup•

Several small instrumental groups were organized this year Among these the most important was the string quartet, which played for the convention of the Nebraska state teachers association and the reception for new officers, an assembly, teas and parent teachers association meetings. The members were Marjorie Young, first violin; Dorothy Peterson, second violin; Dorothy King, viola; and Marian Wolfe, cello.

Alfred Moses, violin; Marian Wolfe, cello, and Frank Greenslit, piano, formed a trio which played for an assembly and several club meetings.

Two brass quartets and a wood-wind quartet which were organized performed at one or two events.

Yoice Cl.-••e•

Every year students are chosen from the advanced glee clubs and the girls junior glee club so that voice classes may be formed. The purpose of the classe is to train new material and to perfect the old by allowing the e students to study more music if they wish.

Twenty girls are enrolled with Miss Helen Stowell and a group nearly this large is taught by Glen M. Case. When the groups meet, the teachers give each person individual attention. The members sing solos before the whole class and so derive training from the criticisms.

When I Wn• Lonely

The Lord's gift to an only child is an imagination.

People usually regard one who has no brothers and sisters as a spoiled darling, who has every advantage his parents can give him, besides the love that would otherwise be divided. This idea is as false as it is common. The only child is lonely from the time he is born until he is married and has a family of his own.

Thus I say that an imagination is the blessing of an only child. He lives on it. When I was little, and saw that others had brothers and sisters, and I had none, I invented some. I usually had an older brother, an older sister, and a younger sister. I do not remember their names. In fact, it would be impossible to recall them, as they were changed nearly every day, to suit my varying moods and fancies.

I argued a great deal with my "family", especially with my older sister, wno was about two years my senior. Of course, I always won the argument. Sometimes I was caught in an embarrassing position, as I would forget which side I was upholding, and which side my "sister" took. In that case, I would decide which side I could most ably defend, and then remember that it was the side on which I was debating.

My older sister was constantly abusing my younger sister, and I was always protecting the latter. eedless to say, I was the heroine of all my imaginings. My brother was the hero of my dreams, and I was his favorite. As my older sister and I were usually fighting, I sometimes did away with her completely, and had only a brother and one sister. That is the main advantage of having only "make-believe., sisters: they can be disposed of whenever one wishes.

As I grew older, and ~tarted to school, I began to read fairy books. I got so interested in fairies that I forgot all about my imaginary family, and discarded 1t alt ogether. My adventures with fairies ranged from watching elves as they worked among the red coals in the fireplace to riding around the world on a fleecy white cloud. ( I never could understand why people rode on wooden horses and magic carpets, when clouds look so much more comfortable.) I have driven Apollo's chariot for him, surrounded by a robe of all the colors of the sunrise. I have walked up wide white steps to a castle in the sky. I have floated down the river on a raft, like Huckleberry Finn, and watched the stars. - I have fl.own with Peter ~nd Wendy to

the Never Land, and played with the lost boys. In fact, I believe there was never a place in fairyland that I have not visited.

All my life I have looked at the world, and wondered. \Vhen I grew older, I learned things about it which I did not know before. I thought that if I kept on learning, some day I could explain the universe. But the more a man knows, the more there is to know. Scientist~ may experiment with the earth as much as they please, and try to solve its problems - it is impossible. If I have learned nothing else, I have learned that life is too deep for me - so I look at the world as merely a dream. Other people can fly to the moon in airplanes if they wish, but I do not need one. I have already been there, on the wings of my imagination.

A s ilver moon rides high tonight -Dorothy Snodgrass And bathes the world in softest light; The whispering wind is a faint caress, The dew is tears of tenderness.

You know, when I want an adventure, I go to my country estate in India. My good friend, the Rajah of Shan, is always searching for strong, courageous men to seek for the most unusual things. You see, his wife - may I say it? - is a little off. You probably remember my experience concerning the white elephant with the brown spots - how I captured it so the Rajah's wife could have a couch cover of its hide? Well, about a year after my return home, things grew dull in the United States again, so I went back to India.

Sure enough, in a few days I received a frantic telephone call from the Rajah. "She's off again," he moaned. " ow she wants a pingaffie skin to drape in the window."

"I'll do my worst," I replied, and at once started to think. Perhaps you never heard of a pingaffie? Well, don't bother if you haven't. You've heard of it now.

Knowing that none of the specie were to be found in India, I set off tor Africa. I took no guns or spears or bows and arrows. I believe these things entirely unnecessary and cruel. But I did take my tried and true sling-shot, some rubber bands, and several notebooks.

We landed safely on the African coast , near the mouth of the Congo river. I plunged into the jungle alone, for companions are liable to yell or jump at the wrong time. For days I wandered, but I caught no glimpse of a pingaffie. Once I confronted a huge tiger. As he sprang for me, I ducked under him and seized his tail, until the beast was completely exhausted and cowed, trying to catch his tail, you sec. So I gave him a slap on the side of ·the head, and left him to think.

You can imagine my surprise on coming upon · a polar bear one day. I could scarcely believe my eyes. There he was, in the middle of the stream. This being the only shallow spot in the river, I could not figure how to cross it without risking the bear's life, and he was far too fine a specimen to kill in cold blood. The bear did not come for me, but just stood there, growl : ng ominously, so I started to journey upstream. After a mile or so of traveling, I saw the grasses trembling, as though some creature were passing through them. Then a familiar gray shape appeared, and I breathed again. The mouse looked old and tired with life, so I quickly put it out of its misery. Then I fastened it to a long pole and leaped on the crocodile0, yes, there was a crocodile taking a nap on a sandbar - and held the tiny creature in front of the huge reptile. When he had traveled to the spot where the bear was sunning himself, I jumped off and left the two to their own devices. You see, they would be so busy with each other that neither would bother with me.

I had journeyed far, but still no pingaffie. Bears, tigers, crocodiles, to be sure, but still no pingaffie. Picture my joy then, on suddenly encountering one - and a magnificent one, too. He stood there, only twenty feet in front of me, growling and sniffing, for the poor beast had a cold. His head was weaving back and forth, sho\\·ing that he was dreadfully, dreadfully, angry. Right then I started to tear up my notebooks. Suddenly, with no warning, he threw up his trunk and charged. If he had ever touched me - well, know that the claws of the pingaffie are deadly poison. But I sprang nimbly as:de, at the same time hitting him with a paper wad. He grc,v furious. His howls of rage were awful to hear. Then he came at me again. I slipped back of the table - we were in the table lands - and again fired. He rushed toward me, after he had recovered, so I slipped back of another table and put my slingshot into use. His agony was terrible to see. Finally he danced off a cliff and fell many feet to his death. His magnificent ruff I kept as my due, and the green and brown spotted hide I took to the Rajah's wife, who was overcome with joy, poor thing. Thus ends one of my most dangerous adventures.

_:_Doris Harris

Away back yonder in the dark ages, nineteen hundred and thirty to be exact, before education was abolished and school teachers were burned at the stake, there lived a boy. Of course there were more boys than one, but there was this one in particular. And he was particular, too. In this unadvanced day school teachers were allowea to run wild and gibber innumerable insidious incantations, vainly attempting thereby to achieve the supernatural, i.e.., to instil some vague smattering of such hideous subjects as mathematics, history, or the rest of the curriculum into the heads of the 1 ehi-guzzling younger generation. And they were never persecuted for witchcraft.

But I am digressing. This boy was known by the name of Lincoln High, Linky for short. I shan't bother to describe him for he looked just like the next boy you meet in the hall. Dignified and self-important was Linky, with an air of distinction about him, for he had skipped study period seventeen times and had led a rebellion against weekly library readings. However , in spite of all thi$, there was one thing that worried our hero.

On a certain day late in the Last Six Weeks ( a division of time then in common usage and of uncommon activity) Linky visited a house which bore a large sign proclaiming that within one "Madame euralgia di Lumbago, Astrologist and Psychologist," held forth

"I have come," began our young Homo Sappyens, "to you in hope that you couid remove a great weight from my mind, Madame."

"Well, sir, there's no time like the present to find out about the future, so just give me your name, date of birth, and auto license number."

These matters having been settled, then , business as usual , or maybe more so. Her Obesity, leering into a crystal and referring occasionally to a chart on the wall, started out with a monologue something like this:

"The blessed stars impart to me that you have deep insight, short foresight, and nothing upstairs. You are very honest when someone's looking and truthful even though it hurts the fellow in the seat behind you. Your governing planet is the Other Side of the Moon and you were born in the sign of Pisce$, showing that you have as fine a brain as the biggest fish afloat. .1. ow you may ask questions."

"All very interesting, but what I want to know--"

"Now, then, I see the sun enter Leo, the lion, in opposition to the moon in Sagittarius, the archer. This signifies that $Orne day you will go on a big game hunt which may prove fatal."

"Well, that's all very disastrous sounding, but--"

"The influence of Aries, the ram, is very strongl y in your favor. When you undertake anything, go into it head first, like a battering ram, for that part will suffer the least injury. Now when the moon is in Cancer--"

This time Linky interrupted with, "I say, can't you--"

"And, looking at Scorpio, I see that you are quite sensitive to insect bites. Have you ever been stung? If you haven't, you will be soon."

"Yes! Yes! But will I--"

"Now this is very important. When the sun gets to Virgo, you will meet a maiden fair to look upon. She is graceful, sweet-tempered and will always remain faithful to you."

"I'm not interested! I want to a$k a question. Just one, I beg you."

"Very well. What is it you wish to know?"

"What will be the result when I take my final examinations?"

"Well, the moon is doing the black bottom in Aquarius right at that time. Aquarius 1s the water-bearer and he rises to say that everything will come out all

-right in the wash. That's all. The planets have set for today. That will be two dollars, please !"

"Two dollars! That's exorbitant!"

"Maybe it is, but I must live you know, and besides I have all my little constellations to feed or they will refuse to work. Thank you. If you flunk this time, call again. Good day!"

M i • t:

The sky is like a soul that hides something, All the more beautiful because of the unknown. This mystery makes us feel as only A dot in the great unexplored dreamland.

Softened texture, and light of form They nod dreamily, the trees, Each little breeze lazily moving. Direction or time are nothing.

Describing lazy circles the smoke of industry, A thing so far removed from the dreamy soul, Moves across the world,

Dissolving in the slowly moving mist. -Mary Cathern Albin

Whnt:"• in n Name P

Of all the interesting and attractive names to be considered in the extremely serious business of naming a baby, why did one hundred and twenty parents of what are now high school girls suffer such a lack of originality and spontaneity of imagination as to christen them Dorothy? Just consider now how many sixty Dorothys are - equal to I 5 % of the senior class; enough to make two ordinary classes. It really is very distressing, don't you know, when rambling down the corridor behaving one's self, to have someone shout, "Oh, Dorothy, did you know that so and so really--." I gaze dazedly at the speaker who is near. "I beg your pardon, but--." I get no farther - the speaker tosses me a withering scowl and says, "I really wasn't addressing you. I spoke to Dorothy Blank."

Then the nicknames - scores of them. I think everyone who ever knew me has found a different one. My family always called me Dort, but outside the parental sphere I am called by such names as Duke, Dolly, Dort, De, Dode, Dora and the most common and intriguing- Dot. I say intriguing because in the last few years I have read of no less than three feminine creatures carrying the name of Dot King being murdered! Ruthlessly and brutally murdered. At the present time I know three Dorothy King's besides my self. Sometimes I sit and amuse myself just wondering which one of us will be murdered first. It is easy to conjure exciting pictures of my own demise and the trip from this earthly sphere to wherever the next path will lead me.

Nevertheless, the name of Dorothy King is not so bad and it will do as well as any other, but I can sympathize with all the other Dorothy's who surely must appreciate the fact that "God must have loved Dorothy's or He wouldn't have made so manv of them." .T ust as I feel for the Dorothy's of today, I implore parents to be considerate and think of the Shirleys, Jeans and Bettys of tomorrow.

-Dorothy King

The figure with a fur-lined cap pushed down over his ears, a heavy topcoat, and big, black, rubber boots was slowly making his way over the snow covered fields. Where was he from, and where was he going? His large footprints could easily be traced back to a small brown hut pushed up against a huge hill. As you approach the dwelling, you are not sure whether it is inhabited. There is no sign of a light now, but looking in at a small window, the interior is visible. At the back is a fireplace; a low smoldering fire sends forth a few flickering rays. Above the fireplace is a rifle, and directly in front are a chair and footstool. In one corner there is a table with two chairs, and in another is a bed. There is a rough-hewn chest against a wall, and the floors are covered with skins. Skins of wolves adorn the walls.

As you look away from the house, about a mile distant is a similar dwelling, only larger. Toward this the man was evidently going. He would see a rabbit scurrying lightly over the crust of snow, which stopped for a brief second and then went its way hippety-hop as if afraid of its own frisking shadow. The hoot of an owl in one of the scattered trees did not disturb the solitary man at all, for he steadily plodded on toward his destination. The full moon shines upon his smiling face as he thinks of the ohs! and ahs ! with which he will be greeted upon the receipt of each items of news of the wondrous outside world, gleaned from the soiled, fingered newspaper folded and carried so carefully under his arm.

He was almost there; now he was at the gate, which he opened noiselessly. At the same time a low growl coming from a little yellow pup was heard. A word from the man, and the dog was joyfully jumping up and putting his dirty little paws on his overcoat. This disturbance soon brought a brawny six-foot man to the door, and behind him a woman and three children peered into the darkness. Upon seeing their neighbor, they exchanged greetings. Then, when the newcomer's cap, coat and boots had been put near the burning logs in the rude fireplace, the host said, "Well, Jim, what's the news?" With this summons to begin, and after looking around on the eager, attentive faces turned toward him, he started in his usual drawl to tell these simple, unassuming people the ways of the world, and to answer their questions the best he could in his humble way.

Each neighborhood had its scholarly "knowin' " man who took a newspaper and who gladly distributed his information among his neighbors. Sometimes several families would gather at one place weekly, and the "bit o' news'' collected here would be animatedly discussed for a week. My grandfather says this was the way the news was circulated in Iowa about I 862.

A symbol of our glorious development is he, Strong, sturdy, of beautiful form, just As we should desire our ideals.

On a pinnacle he shall stand above, Powerful in bronze.

On his lofty throne he stands, A crowning glory to our Capitol, High, h"gh above us seeing all we do. A guardian of our city and state is he.

May he in the years to come,

Remain a symbol of our hopes and aspirations

As he is now, so strong and vigilant, Typifying the spirit of our sovereign state, ebraska. -Mary Cathern Albin

Variety in evening performances was obtained at Lincoln high school this year by the presentation of a mystery play, a satire, and a comedy. These productions were successful in every way. The actors were well trained, and picturesque scenes and furnishings were used so that a natural, yet suggestive, atmosphere was obtained in each production.

All presentations have their difficult side which the audience never realizes. The long parts to memorize, late practices and Saturday morning rehearsals, sacrifice oi other school activities, parties, football games, vacations, and especially the discouraging results make plays something more than happy lines, laughter and clever piots. However, the players have many happy moments together. The tantalizing chances at try-outs, the first overwhelming realization of call slips, and the actual assignment of roles are stirring events. The rehearsals, sometimes tedious, have their exciting moments. Excursions down to the cafeteria, new scenery, costumes, and unusual properties afford diversion. After pictures have been placed on the illuminated bulletin board, reports have appeared in the Advocate, and dress rehearsals with daring costumes and too much grease paint have been experienced, comes the great joy of the actual production. Later the cast recognizes the two important and la tin6 values of a play, the friendships established and the dramatic training obtained by actual experience.

The clever and unusual plays selected by the play committee were directed by Miss Frances McChesney. She chose understudie for the leading characters, but did not employ the double-cast arrangement. The actors cooperated with the coach to make these plays dramatic accomplishments.

Realistic lighting effects were arranged and carried out by students of the stagecraft class under the direction of Claude 0. Morrison. Other members of the class, directed by John D. Hans~n, obtained natural sound effects and designed, constructed and painted appropriate scenery. Property managers procured furnishings and all the necessary articles. Ushers wore costumes suggestive of the type of play. Music furnished by orchestras under the direction of Charles B. Righter carried out the theme. Many others assisted in presenting these plays. Sponsors and business staffs worked and planned to make the productions financially successful.

The new maroon-colored, velvet curtains on the stage and the drapes at the windows enhance the auditorium and lend an artistic grace to the plays. This is the first achievement in the auditorium improvement plan which was started last year.

The first annual play of the year and the second mystery drama ever produced at Lincoln high school was TheRearCar, written by Edward E. Rose. The Mummers presented it November 13 and 14.

In the prologue, an unusual vendor suddenly enters the private coach in which Ruth Carson, accompanied by Norah O'Neill and an attorney, is traveling across the continent to her father.

The mystery is intensified by the unexpected entrance of five characters, including Rut~'s father, the disappearance of the attorney, and the shifting of conductors. Then a voice in the panel announces the death sentence of the occupants trapped in the coach. "The train will go on, but this rear car will go back - down the grade. It will crash into the express that follows you - crash at Indian Canyon - and nothing will be left." Thus Elwood Carson has plotted revenge against his brother, Luke, because of past disagreements.

Sheridan Scott, an ultra-modern detective, fires a shot and Elwood Carson, alias Oliver Hanks, the first conductor, falls out of a trap door and is handcuffed. Then Murray is discovered bound, gagged and locked in a secret passage. So Sheridan, inspired by Norah, solves the mystery and saves the rear car.

In the epilogue Ruth is startled from sleep by a shrill train whistle. She finds that all the horrible complications are only dreams.

The Admiiv.-hle Cirichton

A satire on English society, TheAdmir'ableCrichton, as written by Sir James Barrie, was presented December I 3 and I 4 by the senior class.

In a luxurious English manor · the indolence of_ the upper class and the humble inferiority of the servant class appear both customary and necessary. Equality is opposed by the elite and also by the servants, one of whom is Crichton, a perfect butler, aloof and haughty.

Shipwrecked on a small tropical island for several years, the castaways are forced to recognize the superiority of the former servants. Accordingly, a scullery maid curtly refuses a gentleman's proposal, and Lady Mary is honored to gain the love of Crichton.

After the group is rescued and brought to England, positions, connections, and even affections of life on the island seem to be forgotten. The servants return to their rank and duties, while the family reassumes its dom=neering social standing.

The juniors presented on March 7 and 8 a comedy, TheGooseHangsHigh, written by Lewis Beach.

Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Ingals sacrifice everything to send their children to college and to offer them the best opportunities and enjoyments of life, although their efforts are opposed especially by the grandmother who realizes their straitened financial conditions.

Because of an unpleasant situat ion Mr. Ingals resigns his position and is left with no money to support his family. Hugh Ingals postpones his marriage and adds all his savings to his father's funds, while the twins , Lois and Bradley, refusing to enter school at the cost of others, immediately secure positions. _However, l\,lr. Ingals 1s so displeased with the apparent prospects for his children that he plans to resume his former job. Meanwhile, the twins persuade grandmother to buy a business concern and employ their father to operate it for her. Thus the entire family becomes readjusted, with Mr. Ingals working contentedly, Hugh again planning to be married, the twins gaining knowledge from actual experience, and Granny not only helping them all but even real"zing that the new generation is capable and appreciative.

Basketball never fails to stir a ripple in Lincoln high school sport circles. Girls play two-court basketball with six players on each team. Two-court basketball may seem slow to outsiders, but not to the girls who show keen interest in the games.

The ba ketball season always ends with an interclass tournament. This year, the juniors won against the sophomores with a score of 35 t<:> 10. The seniors were able to pile up only a 12 to 6 score against the sophomores. Consequently, things looked dark for the seniors in the junior-senior game. The score was 8 to 9 at the half, the juniors holding a one point advantage, but soon after the play was resumed the seniors rallied, and the final core read 15 to 13, seniors. Elizabeth Francis captained the winning team and Ruth Hornbuckle led the juniors. The senior team defeated the junior second team to a tune of I 8 to 8.

In the color tournament, the green team led by Phanetta Herron came out victoriou Miss Katherine Horner had the advanced group Tuesdays and Thursdays, and Miss Story, the beginners on Mondays and Wednesdays. Each girl was required to attend at lea t twelve times for credit, and many received extra points for being present twenty times.

Last fall the G. A. A. joined the state league athletic association for high school girls. Through this league two awards and two state awards may be given.

A black chenille L distinguishes the girl who has won I 200 points and a black felt L, the girl with 600 points. The state award, uniform throughout the state; is a chenille triangle of red and white for the first honor and for additional points a triangle to be worn under the first to form a six pointed star. Dorothy Mobley, president of the girls athletic association, as yet is the only girl who has earned the 2,000 points necessary for this emblem. Mae Lebsack and Evelyn Schell have each filled the requirements for first awards.

Participation in sports alone is insufficient in gaining an award. A girl must keep eighteen weeks of training rules for each award. These rules are merely seven health habits which almost everyone comes to keep habitually.

Anna Dalton, Elizabeth Francis, Frances French, Rose Flynn, Emily Hickman, Ruth Hornbuckle, Mae Lebsack, Nadine McReynolds, Ruth Mann, Dorothy Mobley, Evelyn Schell, Grace Wert, Vera Weyand, Alice Wiren and Harriet Woods have all received their chenille L's.

Eight of these girls are seniors and some will receive further awards before they graduate. Seven are juniors and will be back next semester to earn their state awards.

It is not by chance that spectators at football games can devour candy and peanuts during the pauses in the games. The girls athletic association holds the conce~sion and yearly makes a neat sum to defray their expenses of the year. For making the largest sales Altine Hahn received a box of candy.

Elizabeth Francis and Vera Weyand, concession managers, had charge of selling candy at noons in the gymnasium. adine McReynolds, Velma and Evelyn Gaddis also sold candy at noon.

Baseball is one game that everyone enjoys whether he is in the fray or mereiy on the side lines. Girls in Lincoln high school \Vere no different from any others if one could judge by the large groups which participated in this outdoor sport in the spring. The girls went out for baseball three times a week, and were divided into three classes. The members of the advanced class played the games and also took their turns at umpiring, for no outside assistant was allowed. While these girls took turn at this practice, Miss Katherine Horner directed the intermediate and beginning players on another diamond. Each girl shifted so that she would have the experience of playing in every position sometime during the season.

As in any other sports, class color teams were chosen. From these groups class teams were selected by the color captains and by Miss Horner.

Swimming again proved an attractive sport, as about I IO girls registered for it in the fall. Classes were held two and three times a week under the leadership of Miss Lillian Story. Many girls were glad of an opportunity to learn to swim, \-vhile the more adept welcomed a chance to indulge in their favorite sport in the winter.

The swimming meet completed the season. Jean Beachly won first honors m this event, having placed first in th~ 20 yard crawl, 40 yard free style, crawl for form, trudgeon for form, cross chest carry and rear approach. Anne Bunting was second and Emily Hickman, a close third. Bettie Willson, a graduate student, won high honors in the meet, winning five first places.

Ruth Kier and Ruth Diamond from the University of ebraska, acted as judges, and Miss Story, as official starter.

Phy•ic.1111

Educ.ation Demon•tr.ation

A physical education demonstration was presented May 15. The program consisted of a dance drama under the direction of Miss Marie Snavely, and marching, tumbling, building of pyramids under the leadership of Miss Katherine Horner. Miss Lillian Story had charge of the swimming demonstration.

The dance drama which was presented in the auditorium portrayed a Greek myth. Frances French was a nymph, and Madeline Brown, Justine Mickey, Ruth Hancock and Georgia Kilgore represented the four winds. A scarf dance was given by Marjorie Compton, Virginia Kimball, Jane Pidgell and Mildred Kirkbride. Margaret Grant played the part of Odysseus and Josephine Slama represented Aglaia. The parts of epthys and Isis were taken by Eva Wright and Hollis Teten.

Jeanette Mossholder played a violin accompaniment, and Miss Bernice Shellenberg was the piano accompanist. Girls selected for the baseball teams gave a floor demonstration and played Nebraska ball.

Any girl who wished could enter the swimming exhibition of strokes, stunts and diving, water polo and junior life saving.

Girls of the athletic association who did not take part served as ushers and hostesses

The clashing of sticks and the general enthusiasm of girls already enrolled for hockey, served as an added incentive to many girls who had not registered for this outdoor sport.

Hockey practices were held three times a week under the supervision of Miss Katherine Horner. After the girls became fairly adept in managing their sticks, color teams were selected. The Blue team, captained by Irene Dean, emerged victorious. The Red team, led by Dorothy Bollard, was the runner-up in the tournament.

In a hotly contested class tournament, the seniors kept their place with difficulty against the sophomores, but ended with a 2 to I score in favor of the upper class

The first state-wide play day was sponsored by the Lincoln high school girls athletic association, March I 5. Invitations were is ued to all schools that were members of the state league association. Representatives came from about twenty different schools.

The color squad , which were organized as the girls regi , tered, competed m such games as ebraska ball, baseball and in folk dances. The games and dances were led by gymnasium teachers from various parts of the state. The leaders were Miss Lucille Bave, Fairbury, in the game of kick pin; Miss Helen Schlytem, McCook, in ebraska ball; Miss Eleanor Flatermersch, in baseball. Earl Johnson, supervisor of physical training and recreation, led a group of social games. Miss Bertha Lambart, Everett junior high school, led the folk dancing. Miss Marie Snavely supervised the swimming pool. In the girls gymnasium, at the conclusion of the games, several ~chools presented stunts.

Miss Mabel Lee of the University exp res ed her hope that play days would be held in various districts so that every school could attend at least one. She also mentioned a national play day to be held in California directed by Mrs Herbert Hoover. An invitation was extended by Fairbury for a play day in May.

The student squad leaders were - red, Harriet Woods; blue, Altine Hahn; green, Dorothy Mobley; purple, Ruth Hornbuckle; black, Alice Wiren; and white, Edvardine Dye.

"Get off my feet," "We'll show 'em," "Let's take that flag," "Ouch," and many similar expressions were heard on the day of olympics, along with many groans when the juniors won by a score of 65 to 55.

The age and experience of the seniors availed them nothing when the dash and flaming youth of the juniors began their barrage of points early in the battle. For the third time in the history of the school, the juniors came out victorious. However, the present senior class got the flag last year and kept it this time. They upheld the colors through both years that they were in the olympics.

The juniors garnered their first points when Yelkin took the baseball throw, but the seniors came back into the lead when Masterson won the football throw. Amidst cheering for both classes, Eugenia Levy scored the second triumph for her class by throwing the basketball out of the range of the senior contestants. The seniors counter-attacked, and Dorothy Mobley won the girls baseball throw. The next decisive battles were won by the juniors when the girls triumphed in both relays and Everett won the boys 40 yard dash. Jack Rea took the next victory when the seniors annexed the 7 5 yard dash.

The next event was a 40 yard dash for girls. Elizabeth Frances won this for the juniors, but Mae Lebsack put the seniors back in the running when she won the 60 yard dash.

Oliver Soderlund technically knocked. out Ernie Ettleman to raise the hopes of the seniors a trifle more in the heavyweight boxing, and Sauer aided the senior cause with a victory over Hackenbary in the heavyweight wrestling.

The juniors got back to their lucky streak under the leadership of Aguirre who won _ in lightweight boxing and Haecker who carried off the honors in lightweight wrestling. The junior girls won the progressive broad jump to add to their score.

Part of the cause for the seniors losing the tug-of-wars was the fact that they were outnumbered in all mass events. Backed by a spirit of determination the seniors pulled with all their strength but the juniors survived and scored in all three contests.

A desperate and successful stand of the seniors took place in the heavyweight battle royal. Tossing the juniors about like chaff, the seniors won with a loss of onehalf their original number. The juniors duplicated this feat in the lightweight battle royal to cinch the olympics for themselves.

In the push rod contest the seniors, though outnumbered, seemed to be made of hands and covered the pole with these members. Many of the injuries came during this free-for-all.

The next event, the color rush, seemed to be all seniors. Luchsinger, who was the flagpole sitter, wasn't even threatened. The members of last years football team formed an effective guard for the seniors. In fact , they were so determined that one junior was carried off the field He soon recovered consciousness.

After the last cartridge was fired the seniors filed from the oval with their heads ''bloody, but unbowed." With many applications of bandage, tape, liniment and other hospital accessories the seniors left on their annual picnic.

As a grand finale of Coach Browne's football record in Lincoln high school, one of the most powerful elevens ever built up in the history of the school defeated all opponents but one, the game ending in a scoreless tie, to win the mythical state championship. This great team piled up 347 points while their opponents scored only 12 points in the course of the whole season, a record for both offense and defense. Coach Browne modeled his record-smashing football artists from seasoned veterans of the 1928 and a few of the best reserves. Nine of these brilliant players were placed on all-state football squads. When the call for material is given next year only one letter man of the memorable team of 1929 will answer.

The Red and Black defenders swooped down from their stronghold to annihilate the powerful Hastings eleven in the opening game of the season. With the quickness of a cat they eluded an anxious and fighting Tiger to score in the first two minutes of play. The downfall of the Orange and Black can be credited to the remarkable work of a strong line which stopped practically every play that came its way. The Adams county youths made yardage but four times during the game. Captain Bishop, Schmitt, Joy and Prestegaard were great powers in opening the holes and running interference. Luchsinger, Sauer and Masterson scored the seven touchdowns and three tries-for-points.

Columbus day was clear and beautiful, but it brought no joy to the Thomas Jefferson football team of Council Bluffs, Iowa. Those Orange and White gridiron warriors who participated in that game against the capital city lads are likely to remember the day. Every play was more than matched by the sterling play of the Lincoln line. Sauer, Masterson and Luchsinger carried the bulk of the ball lugging. At the end of the sixty minutes the score read, Lincoln 47, Thomas Jefferson o.

A zephyr in the form of eleven gridsters from Lincoln blew through an inspired Beatrice team. The red shirts were completely outplayed during the first half. At the intermission Coach Brow·ne gave his proteges a lecture on how not to play football. With the start of the third period the Capital City machine began to function. The final result found the Orange and Black on tne short end of a 31 to 6 score. Luchsinger, Schmitt, Bauer and Prestegaard upheld the honor of the Red and Black.

Lincoln high celebrated Booster day by severely chastising the Omaha Central eleven.

Fulcher provided the thrill of the afternoon when he galloped sixty-one yards for a touchdown. Fulcher, Luchsinger, Sauer and Lanman were the backfield stars, but the whole scarlet line was conspicuous for its skill.

L :ncoln and Omaha Tech locked horns in the feature grid tussle of the season. Both teams resorted to trick plays of every description, only to see their efforts fade away. The Lincoln boys fought their way through the Maroons' defense, only to be halted on the Tech one-foot line. The metropolis boys outweighed the Capital city lads nearly fifteen pounds to the man, but the fighting spirit of the Lincoln team more than offset the weight disadvantage.

The Red and Black swept from the west and left eleven battered gridiron warriors stretched on the sod at Cedar Rapids, Iowa. The Iowans were helpless before the brilliant aerial attack of the Junior Cornhuskers. "Chief" Bauer was on the throwing end of three passes which resulted in touchdowns. Joy, Kilbourne, Sauer and Weir accounted for the four Lincoln touchdowns.

Playing in a sea of mud, the Brownies rolled up the largest score in the history of the school against Vermillion, South Dakota. When the final gun sounded, Lincoln had scored a dozen touchdowns, and seven tries-for-point. The Dakotans failed to make a first down while the Lincoln team made twenty-nine. The Red and Black made 506 yards from scrimmage; the opponents had to be content with a negative seventeen yards. This accomplishment was the result of the cooperative spirit of the whole team.

Grand Island was the next victim. The first quarter was evenly fought, with the Yellow and Blue gridsters ha v ing a slight advantage. The Lincoln boys took command soon after the second period opened, the outcome from then on never being in doubt. The final score was 46 to o.

St. Joseph Central furnished the opposition in the farewell game of the season. The field was a sea from an all-night rain and snow. Lincoln scored in the first few minutes, only to see the score t ied when a Central player caught a pass and ran sixty yards for a touchdown. Lincoln scored a safety a few minutes later when a Purple :and White warrior was spilled behind his own goal line. In the last quarter the Red j~rseys scored touchdowns twice. The curtain rolled down on the high school careers of twenty-five pla yers in this victorious game.

After a lapse of two years, the championship banner of ebra ka once more waves over Lin coln high school. The first championship of the Missouri Valley athletic conference also rests in the halls of the Red and Black. The Links won twenty-two out of twent y-five games pla yed , and rolled up 704 points for an average of 28 points the game. .

The Missouri Valley high school conference was opened by the Red and Black with a 40 to 18 victory over Thomas Jefferson. A powerful offense, with Witte and Ayres leading the way, swamped the Iowans. " Bean y " hit the hoop for fifteen point .

York was host to the Lincoln :tes in the second game of the sea on. The Blue and White could not stop the sharp shooting of Witte who connected for nineteen points. Y elkin and Bauer were the defensive stars of the game.

The Links were entertained by two St. Joseph, Missouri, teams in their next trip to the court. The Red and Black flashed a fast breaking offense which Central could not fathom. The final score favored Lincoln , 29 to 11. Another victim in St. Joseph fell by the wayside when Lincoln defeated Benton, 31 to 19.

The Crimson hoop experts played a hard fast game to subdue Omaha Tech, 29 to 8. Witte led the scoring with eleven tallies, followed by Ayres with seven. Bauer stood out in the Red and Black defem:e.

The next game with Jackson high was a feather in Lincoln's cap for even the brilliant pla y of their suburban rivals could not stop the Red and Black. The score was 28 to 17.

The Links triumphed over Grand Island, 30 to 18, in spite of twenty-one fouls which were called. Alden Martin was high po int man with ten points. At the next game, however, Lincoln met defeat for the first time when a fast St. Joseph Centrai team out-scored them, 25 to 18.

The purple of Omaha Central were the next victims falling, 32 to 16. Witte, Ayres and Masterson led the scoring with nine, seven and seven points respectively.

Witte's long archer from mid-court furnished the climax for one of the liveliest basketball games seen in recent years. The Crete flippers outplayed the Red and Black throughout the game. The final score was 29 to 27.

The Kansas City Bulldogs uncorked a short passing attack which the Links could not solve. Wyandotte was on the heavy end of a 31 to 18 score. The defeat by Wyandotte inspired the Scarlet basketeers to romp over an apparently strong Hastings quintet. Witte was all over the floor to the sorrow of the Tigers for, with his 18 points, he scored enough to beat them single handed.

Abraham Lincoln of Council Bluffs, Iowa, dropped their second game to the scarlet five, 22 to 14. Witte annexed high scoring honors with ten counters.

Since the Missouri Valley championship hinged on the outcome of the Omaha Central contest , the Links ,could not be defeated. With Les Witte leading the way, the Red and Black sharp shooters countered twenty-two points while the Purple and White had to be content with fourteen. To make the invasion complete Lincoln knocked off Tech the following evening, 30 to 23. Ayres led the scoring with nine points.

The Geneva tossers gave the invading Lincoln tribe the hardest fought game of the season. Martin, Witte and Masterson carried the bulk of the Red's attack.

The season ended when Lincoln rolled up the largest score of the year at the expense of Omaha South. The final score was 55 to 14.

§tate T ournanaent

The Links romped over Sidney in the first game of the state ~hampionship tournament. The Lincoln five kept the Westerners busy solvin g the zone defense. Witte, Ayres and Y elkins were the chief factors in Sidney's downfall.

Lincoln drubbed York in their second turn on the court, 33 to 11. The Blue and Yellow were completely outclassed from the start. Witte was the mainspring in the offense, while Y elkin and Wampler forced the Yark forwards to shoot from the center of the floor.

The Scarlet tossers remained in the running by giving Hastings a sound thrashing in the semi-finals, 33 to 13. Witte was again the chief offensive weapon of the Links. Masterson and Y elkins gave a great exhibition of defensive play.

The sharpshooters from Lincoln high overcame an early lead to win the state championship from Kearney in the finals. After a slow start Witte and Masterson began hitting the hoop with regularity to go into the lead in the second round. The play of the Red and Black guards, Yelkins and Wampler, featured.

Re:ional T ournanaent

The Brownies overwhelmed Bethany in the first round of the Wesleyan regional tournament by rolling up nineteen points in the first half and two in the second. Bethany held the ball on the back court the entire second half to keep the score down.

In the second round an inspired Milford five held the Red and Black for the first half. When Witte started connecting in the second half, the Milford guards were helpless before the southpaw ace. The final score was 23 to 14.

The biggest surprise of the tournament came in the third round when Jackson upset the Red and Black cagesters. Gillette and Barrett were the main cogs of the Red and White tossers. Ayres, Wampler and Y elkins were the only Lincoln players able to hit their stride. This defeat put the Links out of the running for the state ~ournament, but the Lincoln hoopsters were picked from the state at large to compete in the Nebraska champiom:hip tourney because of their impressive record during the season.

Since 1922 W. Harold Browne has acted as both athletic director and head coach. This year he is going to the University of Nebraska where he will be added to the coaching staff. The duties in Lincoln high school have become such that one man cannot take care of both positions, as has always been the custom. Harold Lauritson will take over the reins of athletic director in the fall of 1930. He will plan all drills and exercises for the physical education department as well as schedule all interschool athletic games. For the past three years he has been the head of the physical education department at Irving junior high school. He attended high school at Beatrice and received his college degree from Doane college at Crete, Nebraska.

Stuart T. Baller will assume the duties of coach of major sports. As head coach at Jackson high for the past five years he has built up an enviable record throughout the state. The past season Jackson was the only Nebraska team to defeat the Red and Black cag-esters. After graduating he taught for a short time at his alma mater, Wesleyan University.

The average person seldom thinks of a reserve team as doing anything at all. The team in our school, however, does much to uphold the honor of the Red and Black and we should grant support to them as we do to the regulars. Five victories out of six games was the record of Sed Hartman's reserves. Edward Uptegrove assisted in coaching. The reserves lost their only game of the season to College View on a muddy gridiron. DeWitt, College View reserves, Bethany, Jackson and Crete reserves fell before the junior Links. A game scheduled with Cathedral was forfeited to Lincoln. In the Greater Lincoln League the reserves placed third. They furnished the Brownies with practice skirmishes almost every night. The outstanding playe1s on the team were Moeller, W. Bauer, Ames, French, Wampler, Morrison, Fowler and Kos. With only two lettermen return:ng next fall the reserves will be called upon to carry the burden of the schedule.

Leslie Witte, forward. Les was honorary captain and was captain of the all state team. He was the sharpshooter of the team and the leading scorer in big five conference and in the state tournament.

• Bernard Masterson, center. Bernie was the g iant of the team, his height giving him the tip in almost every game.

Francis Ayres, forward. Francis played this year as forward. He was a good shot and a fast floor man, and one of the most dependable men on the whole team.

Lloyd Wampler, guard. Lloyd is one of the veterans who will return next year. He was a good defensive man and contributed his share of shots from the middle of the court.

Virgil Yelkin, guard. Virgil played his first year on the team. He kept the opponents' shots well back on the court.

John Carlson, center. John was small but got the tip from the taller men. His ability to control the tip caused him to be referred to as the player with springs in his shoes.

Alden Martin, forward. Aldie was a clever dribbler and an accurate shot and scored many brilliant plays.

Henry Keller, guard. Henry was one of the cleverest floor men in the state.

Lyman Lindsay, guard. Lyman played a heady game and accounted for his share of the points.

Neil Brown, forward. Neil played well during the early part of the season, but was on the injured list the last weeks of the season.

Henry Bauer, guard. "Chief" displayed his basket ability during the first semester, but was graduated in January.

Completing a fairly successful season the Lincoln high reserve team placed third in the Greater Lincoln league basketball race. The most attractive games of the season were those with Wesleyan high and Bethany. The reserves broke even in these games and showed the best brand of play displayed all year.

William Bauer and Leo Ayres, diminutive forwards, were chosen to play on the league all-star team which downed the coaches in a spirited fray. Ayres was high scorer in the league for the season. The only people who were really able to appreciate the work of the reserves are the 1930 state high school basketball champions. Almost every night saw a scrimmage between them and their capable understudies who will defend the Red and Black in 193 I.

The lettermen are Leo Ayres, Glen Ayres, William Bauer, Harold Miller, Ray Baldwin, Glenfall Barnes, Lester Allen and Harlan Davies. Coach Hartman deserves a large share of the credit for training this squad.

The Red and Black splashers led by Captain Lanman had one of the best tank teams in the state. Seven lettermen of last years squad returned for the team - Captain Lanman, Vold, Meier, Turner, Grossman, Carle and Markham who made letters two years ago. The first meet of the season resulted in a victory for the Beatrice Y. M. C. A. team. In two dual meets with Omaha Tech the scarlet swimmers lost by narrow margins. Creighton Preparatory of Omaha fell in the wake of the Lincoln natators in Omaha. The Bluejays captured only two first places.

The state meet was abolished this year by the state athletic association as not being representative since only a few schools entered. Omaha Tech held an invitation meet in which Lincoln placed third. Markham and Eberly were second and fourth respectively in the plunge for distance. Carle won third place in the 7 5 yard medley while Luchsinger was third in the 220 yard free style. N ovicoff and Rathburn placed in the 50 yard free style. Kuklin was second in the 100 yard back stroke and fancy diving. Meier won forth in the back stroke and Grossman fourth m fancy diving. Lincoln relay teams won third in the 200 yard free style and second in the 200 yard medley relay. Omaha Tech won the meet, the eightieth consecutive victory for the Maroon swimmers.

Treat tied for third in the high jump. After this meet the Lincoln tracksters closed the season in the Greater Lincoln meet and the Big Five conference championship

Mr. Hartman Kohiro

• The national pastimers, under Coach Ralph Beechner, faced the most strenuous season in the history of the Red and Black. Captain Yelkin, Wampler, Horne, ov1coff, Scheck, Strasheim and Schaepe were the returning lettermen from the 1929 squad. The other members of the team were Bork, Wood, Blockwitz, Murray, Well, Tucker, Penrod, Teten and Menne

There was difficulty in getting enough boys to pitch for the team. Rudolph Horne was the only boy who was able to act as a regular thrower since Everett Stuermer was ill and could not play. In spite of ob tacles, however, the team had a successful season. In the initial tilt of the season Elmwood fell a victim under the bats of the Lincoln nine. Mead next succumbed on the Lincoln high diamond when the Red and Black collected their second victory by defeating their opponents, 8 to 4, in a seven-inning game. Rain caused many of the games to be postponed. One game which was to have been pla yed at the Landis field with Omaha Central had to be set at a later date and the schedule for the season was uncertain. The Links al.,o played games with Omaha Technical hi gh school and Omaha South, Weeping Water and Cordova.

A heap of tin and rust it stood, It could move a mile an hour. It rattles from rear tire to hood; What it needs is a wreath and flower.

A bump, a jump, a kick, a spurt, The motor roars and balks, The wheels throw steady streams of dirt; Safest is he who walks.

A sign upon the roof is stuck, "For sale, dirt cheap," the words are writ. Upon con idering the sale, for luck I'd choose the dirt before I'd choose it.
