National Honor 

Society Resumes 

Its Activities 

Alexander, Deards, Ogilvie, 

Guill, and Saunders Present 

Members 

Thbs article was written by Miss 

Laura Stark, chainnan of the National 

Honor society committee, in 

an endeavor to explain to both students 

and faculty requirements for 

membership and method of selection. 

The National Honor society has begun 

its activities, The present mciibers 

are: 

12a's--Fred Alexander, John Deards, 

Adelaide Ogilvie. 

12b's--Nina. Quill, -Allen Saunders. 

(Nina entered Central Oct. 5, from 

Evansville, Ind.) 

These members recently held an 

election at which Allen Saunders was 

chosen president, Fred. Alexander, vice 

president; Nina. Quill,, secretary; and 

Mr. Ashman, treasurer, Adelaide 0gilvei 

represents the organization at the 

candy counter. The National Honor 

society, together. with the Girls' club, 

shares in the profits of the candy sales. 

Faculty members who are sponsors 

for the current year are Mr. Ashman, 

Miss Mackin, Miss Morris, Miss Syftestad, 

and Miss. Stark, chairman. This 

'committee has been busily engaged in 

computing the grade points for the 

hla. 12b, and 12a classes in order to 

determine which pupils are in the upper 

third of their class and therefore 

eligible to election on the basis of 

scholarship. Scholarship alone is not 

a sufficient recommendation for election. 

Character, service, and . leadership 

are factors equally important. 

All teachers assist in the' election of 

members inasmuch as they report to 

the- committee their estimates on thel 

character, the service, and the leadership 

of pupils in the upper: third 

groups;. and from the evaluations, thus 

submitted,. the committee must base

MADISON, WISCONSIN, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1933PR 

.. Editorial .. I 

The youth of today is facing a 

greater and .more momentous' crisis 

than has been the lot of any former 

generation. It's very foundations are 

being undermined by Ignorance and 

false. economy. Figuratively, American 

youth has been set adrift on a tempestuous? 

sea in a small boat which is being 

impeded by the halter of ignorance. 

Although youth is pulling bravely 

towards' the great goal of success 

can it arrive there or will impediment 

cause -it to flounder? 

The fate of. the' nation's yout~h 

hangs in the balance as public 'schools 

are being drastically mowed down in 

the name of economy.- Schools, wherein 

are formed the character and 

deals of future citizens-the cornerstone 

of American life-are endangered. 

The movement to close schools, to 

shorten the school term, to dismiss 

teachers, to reduce salaries from 15 

'to 60 per cent, to delay payment for 

months makes for the abolishment of all 

that is progressive in education. Short 

sighted taxpayers are falling prey to 

the propaganda. of the politician whose 

forsight goes only as far as a term of 

office or the next election. Is he- preparing 

a younger generation to take 

the wheel when he has completed his 

service, or is his attempt to show the 

public that '"figures 

don't lie". the 

paramount interest in his achievemens? 

False economy is a serious detriment 

to success in'.Indiividual life as 'well as 

to the life -of a nation. Much poten-. 

tial talent will be lost because of lack 

of means to develop it. The world will 

be deprived of the creative talent 

which makes life worth living. 

This age sounds a -challenge to millions 

of boys and girls. They must rise 

against. the waves which threaten to 

destroy their bark, There. is strength 

in union,, and strength Is- what is 

needed in the present situation.: Only 1 

by the combined effort, of all school 

children can a. crumbling school sys-, 

tem be saved. The boat must. reach 

the goal. There will be sharp struggles 

with. contending currents and dangerous 

' breakers, but the boat carries 

with it the hopes and dealls of modern 

youth and it will not flounder-it must 

not. 

High School Editor's conference, to 

be held at the University of Wisconsin 

Dec. 1 and '2. The emphasis will 

be upon financial problems brought 

by -the difficult times. 

Newspaper editors and business 

managers will have roundtable talks 

on news writing, news source's, headlines, 

makeup, copyreading, proofreading, 

type' display, sports news, 

features, circulation, advertising and 

promotion;' Yearbook editors and business 

managers will have roundtables 

on layouts and art work, photographs 

in the yearbook, financing the yearbook, 

by sales, advertisements, etc.- 

Faculty advisors are invited to- participate 

in their own discussions. as 

well as .a special luncheon for- advisors. 

The critical roundtables will be 

held and staff, members are urged to 

bring copies of their publications -for 

criticism. 

Because of the. success of last year's 

"Stunt Banquet,"' instead of addresses 

all entertainment will be furnished 

by student- delegate-skits,- dialogues,

Glen Step hens, Attorney, 

To Speak -Here Today 

Mr. Glen.. Stephens, a member of 

the American -Legion, a Madison attorney, 

and an officer of the school 

board, will be the main speaker at the 

auditorium program Friday, Nov. 10. 

He will tell of, the signing of the 

Armistice on Nov. 11, 15 years ago. At 

exactly 11 o'clock taps will be blown 

and' the assembly will observe one 

minute of silence as a tribute to the 

soldiers, who- fought and died during 

the World War. 

WILL HE MAKE IT? 

Music Mothers" 

Association to 

Be Organized 

The first steps toward the formation 

of a' Music Mothers' association 

were taken Wednesday,.Nov. 8, when 

approximattely 20 parents attended an 

open rehearsal of the Central Junior- 

Senior orchestra. 

At this time the 

parents were able to observe how rehearsals 

are run, and how the children 

are progressing in -orchestral work. 

Alternating open orchestra and band 

rehearsals are being planned for once 

each month. 

Mr. Klose, who sponsors the movement, 

states that such an organization 

'would be for three purposes--to 

promote parental interest, in Instrumental 

work, to increase the child's 

interest in instrumental work, and to, 

insure a satisfactbry backing. of projects 

undertaken by the band and orchestra. 

These three points would 

overlap, inasmuch as increased interest 

on the part of the parent would 

naturally reflect on the child. Such 

stimulation would lead to great support 

of the .organizations. 

"The ultimate objective of the asso- 

'ciation would be to send the band and 

orchestra to -the spring tournament if 

the individual improvement and the 

cooperation of the parents increase 

sufficiently," Mr. Klose 'explains. 

School will be dismissed Friday afternoon 

at 3:12 for a pep meeting to 

be held in .the auditorium. Jim Dean 

will be the chairman. The pep' meeting, 

for both junior and senior high 

school students, will begin promptly at 

3:15.. The band will be on hand to 

help make a noise.-

Art Department in Charge 

of Second Part of Program 

Last 'Thursday, Nov. 2, the students 

of -Central Senior High school were 

entertained by a dual program. The 

first part of .the program was provided 

by Oscar R. Werner and his wife, 

Mrs. Werner. Mr. Werner Is an accomplished 

flutist formerly of the Chicago 

Civic Symphony orchestra. He is 

making a tour of- the United States 

to afford opportunities for awakening 

of interest in that art.. He favored the 

audience with three numbers, among 

them the celebrated "Greetings to 

B ungary." 

The second part of the program was 

provided by the art department. Royce 

Pendleton, the- first speaker, expressed 

the purposes of art. "Art is most essential 

for our rapidly increasing leisure 

time,' was his principle text. The 

second- speaker, Walter Randal, demonstrated 

by use of molds and tools 

the different processes, in making 

metal dishes, bowls, and rings. "Thering 

is the best and favorite problem 

of art metal students," he declared. 

Eleanor Connely, representing ,the 

fine arts department, explained the 

structure, painting, and designs of the 

two large screens on display. Mary 

Mae Woodman was in- charge of the 

display of :art. metal goods. Posters, 

tooled: leather, pewter, copper, and. 

brass dishes were also on display..

THEE 

French Students. 

Hear Experiences. 

OfCanadian Boy 

Monsieur Carriere is a French Canadian 

boy who is working his way 

throiugh the University of Wisconsin. 

In speaking to the club he explained' 

the system of the school he attended 

which was of the Catholic division. 

There are separate schools for boys 

and girls, there being no co-education 

at all in Canada. "All correspondence," 

he said, "is read by the priests." If a 

young man wishes to write to a girl 

friend he addresses his- letter "Dear 

Aunt"; and when a girl writes to a 

boy, she addresses her letter "Dear 

Nephew." He also said that the chief 

sport in Canada is hockey, little attention 

being paid to football and basketball. 

In answering a question as to how 

the girls amuse themselves, Monsieur 

Carriere said, "The girls don't have any 

sports except tennis. They just walk 

anid talk. They don't play basketball 

or anything like that because they 

think it destroys their femininity to 

We walked along the- outside from 

the engine up to the last car. We 

figured the inside would be much 

warmer than the outside. After stand-

busted on the porters 'bench,, we entered.- 

It was warns.- 

The first sight that caught my eye 

was a swell place' to sit. It was padded 

and beautifully upholstered. 

The first thought that caught my 

brain was to bum school and see the 

world with the Royal Scott. Oh, that- 

'would be life, but I didn't.- 

~Next thing was the lounge and 

smoker room,' but I didn't see anybody 

flash a cigar. The young lady- in front 

of me was forever stopping when I 

{didn't see her. That meant. I didn't 

-stop until my nose grew flat. 

The bunks they had were -worth 

'.trying. You could sit up, stand up, or 

do anything. in your bed, you didn't 

have to worry about the upper bunk 

because there wasn't any.

"To dominate lawlessness we must

and keep it at all times in preparedness. 

It is better to' pay ten million 

dollars per year for 10 years for preparedness 

than to pay one hundred 

millions of dollars at the end of that 

period of time for immediate defense." 

These were the statements used by 

Lieut." E. P.' Wilson, who spoke at the

of Navy day, to emphasize 

the significance of an efficient navy. 

Theodore Roosevelt was attributed the 

honor of being the father of Navy. day. 

Ensign Kuehi told of the manner in 

which a young man is admitted -to 

Annapolis. Strict examinations, both 

academic and physical, must be passed 

before the man is admitted. Mary 

pranks are played in the summer. 

Punishment for such actions is from 

three to four hours at attention. 

Rules of etiquette 'are so strict that 

the "plebes,"' as first-year men are 

called, are often subjected to many 

dis comfitures at. the hands of upper~ 

classmen because of ignorance. At the 

order, "Sit on infinity," the "plebe" 

finishes his meal on the floor. For such 

negligence as spilling anything, a 

"plebe" is greeted with submergence. 

He reclines under the table and there 

he must finish his repast. "Red eye," 

as catsup is called, must be saluted by 

all "plebes" wit their forks. At graduation 

they wear their clothes backward 

and perform a snake dance because 

they are so overjoyed at being 

released from -the class of "plebes," 

who are usually the butts of all jokes 

and abuses. 

Annapolis is not all revelry, however, 

as most of the year is spent in academic 

pursuits. 

A Central student, Miles Moore, who 

has seen four years of actual service in 

the navy, was the chairman. Cheers 

were led for the speakers and, a new

Congratulations to the Band 

CENTA'S band has been concentrating upon' its 

marching this year and has displayed' a commendable 

improvement over that of last year..On an average. 

of twice a week Mr. Klose. has. spent periods in excess 

duration of the usual class hour, drilling the band in 

the fundamentals of marching and in the fornation of. 

school letters.. The diffiulty .bf breaking in new members 

of the band has largely disappeared through the earnest 

efforts of everyone and the noteworthy accomplishments 

of the drum major, Don Williams. 

Between halves of football games played by Central 

this year, the band displayed the letters "C" and "W" at 

the Central-West game, the latter: supported with -a mov-- 

ing border; and the letter "J" for Janesville and the 

word "Hello" 'for .the keynote of Central's homecoming at 

that game. The -latter was a novel experiment. As; soon 

as the word was formed, capes were opened and a lusty 

"Hello, grads" resounded from the Central musicians. 

The band is out to make good this year, and if it 

hasn't shown you an admirable piece of work yet, It will

in the first quarter when their attack 

"folded up" with the visitors' 10-yard 

line. Hanke kicked to Kenosha's 19-

and Central recovered. Two plays:

that the. invaders' 'defense tightened=

Mitchell went back to pass but was

he couldn't find a man in the clear. 

It was well through the third quarter-

In the first quarter Smith's quick

downs, when a fourth down pass was 

knockced down in the end-zone.. 

Just before this period ended Hanke 

fumbled a punt, and Park recovered 

on Madison's 22-yard line. After the 

teams had changed goals, Nordentoft 

and Serpe scored a first down in three

Three more plays took the ball to the

the ball on the last down, and when 

the players were pulled off, the ball 

rested one inch from a touchdown.

them. 


su'preme over East on the gridiron, 

but in, 1930 East broke through this 

string of victories and the Orange. and 

Black warriors have not secured a 

win over East since then. 

Another interesting point is that 

Coach Koskey has not as yet tutored 

a- team to a victory over the East-j 

siders since he took over the Central 

coaching reins three years ago, and 

this year he especially likes to see his 

eleven hang up a- victory. 

In 1923, the year that East began 

its existance the Central eleven took 

advantage of -their' youthfulness and 

handed the Purgold's a 24-0 defeat. 

The Central star of that year. was 

Mik4 Tripalin. who helped very much 

towards his team's success.s 

1924 brought another win for the 

Square eleven; this time to the tune 

of 19-7. Pip Nelson, Moose Krueger, 

and Bob Linden all later members of, 

the Wisconsin varsity. helped materially 

towards the success of that Orange 

and Black victory. ' Tripalin, 

however, was the big star of the contest, 

scoring both of the Central 

markers. . 

In 1925, the Central gridiron warriors 

again~ bowled over the Eastsiders. 

This time the final score was 

23-13. Marky Schmitz, played a whale 

of a game in the Center, during that 

game. Little 'Pip' Nelson came in for 

his share of glory in the back field. 

Joe Kurth, who later was a Notre. 

Dame star, played 'a marvelous game 

for East. 

In '26 Coach Howie Johnson's squad 

paced by 'Pip' Nelson, 'Bud' Usilton,' 

and 'Fritz' Staab crushed East 25-0. 

That was in days when the annual 

game came on Thanksgiving and. was 

played at Camp Randall. There were 

always at least 5,000 spectators eagerly 

watching the boys do their stuff, 

and they always put on a good show, 

as you can be assured. 

Central's. teams were 

reaching a 

high point in': the school's grid history, 

as .the next; year rolled around 

and then the Orange and Black 

eleven trampled the East teami.48-0. 

Usilton "with three touchdowns andi 

Staab and Bosdick with two markers 

apiece were the offensive stars' for 

Central. 

,In 1928, the Central eleven. rolled* 

ujp the largest score in the history of 

the rivalry. This was in the heyday of 

the famous "Four Dynamoes" composed

In 1930, the beginning of the Koskey 

regime, East broke. through the 

long string of Central victories 'to' gain 

a 12-7 victory herself. The' powerful

and Smythe was too much for the 

Central team. However. Captain Jerry

Threaten Early 

In Every Game 

Central Eleven Proves Biggest 

Menace to Opponents 

During First Five Minutes 

In every game this year, the Central 

eleven has threatened their opponents 

in the first five minutes. In the 

first four games of the year against 

Mineral Point, Beloit, Racine Horlick, 

and Richland Center, respectively, 

these early threats led to touchdowns, 

and in the Janesville tilt a safety resulted 

when, after losing the ball on 

downs, Dudley, Janesvllle's fullback 

was nailed behind the goal line by 

Jack Welsch. 

However, in the last games, those 

against West, Kenosha, and Washington 

Park, these chances have not been 

utilized. During the whole first quarter 

of the West game Central played 

inside of their opponents 30 yard line, 

but not a point was scored until the 

last quarter.. Again in the Kenoha 

battle, -which resulted in a scoreless 

tie, due to the recovery of a fumbled 

punt, and a first' down, Central had 

the ball on the Redmen's 8-yard strip 

with first down, eight yards to go, but 

Kenosha took the ball when Mitchell 

was nailed on the last down looking 

for someone to pass to. Then at Racine 

a 35-yard forward pass, Smith to 

Hanke, placed the ball on the 13-yard 

line, but again Central's attack proved 

impotent, and a fourth down pass was 

incomplete over the goal line for a 

touchback. 

Let us hope that the team will keep 

up this record of threatening early in 

the game against East tomorrow, but 

let us also hope that they will not 

keep up the record of the last few 

games, but that they will push the ball 

over for the first score of the game.

the upper third of the ila, 12b, and 

12a classes. All elections will be made 

from this list, and will be announced 

around Christmas. 

Several members of the 12b class 

are in the upper third, but because 

they are new students here, cannot be 

elected to the society. This is because 

of a provision in the N. H. S. charter 

excluding those who have not attended 

school for at least one year before 

election. Those students are Phylles

Christmas Cards 

To Be Made by 

Art Club Members ; 

Samples of Christmas cards are to 

be made and shown to prospective 

buyers, and posters are to be made advertising 

the cards. These projects 

were decided upon by the Art club 

at its meeting on Nov. 8. Miss Post 

gave a talk on etchings, which are 

made by drawing the desired work on 

a polished sheet of copper, that is 

coated with wax, gum, and rosin, with 

a sharp instrument. 

The sheet is placed in a vat of a 

special acid, mordant, which dissolves 

a limited amount of the copper. 

The wax is then removed. As the 

polished surface does not hold the 

ink well, It all runs into the grooves. 

The etching is printed by a special 

process of forcing the ink from the 

grooves. Etchings are valued at the 

number of prints made from the original 

plate, the fewer the prints, the 

higher the price. 

The Art club Inspected the exhibits 

of etchings done by George Groth of 

Chicago. These are on exhibit in the 

main hall. Many of his etchings were 

shown at the State Teachers' convention 

at Milwaukee. 

The club plans to visit the art exhibits 

at the Memorial Union and 

Wheeler conservatory.

JUNIOR HIGHNES 

'Home -Rooms~ 

Talks on Various Phases of' 

Education Given by Students 

This week, Nov. 6 to 10, is American 

Education Week. This is the 13th 

anniversary of this celebration.. 

Some of the plans which were inaugurated 

by various home rooms of 

Junior High school to celebrate this 

occasion are as follows: 

In Miss Victoria Mcflquhanm's mathematics 

class, a discussion on "Cost of 

Education" was held. Pupils gave two 

short talks on "The Value of Reading, 

"How Reading Helps One," and 

a discussion on' some enjoyable books{ 

to read. 

Miss Baldwin's 9b Latin class held 

a discussion on the relation of Latin 

to practical life--based on Miss Sabius' 

book. 

Home room lala discussed articles 

taken from the daily papers. 

The 8a mathematics classes worked 

problems on "Cost of Education." 

Miss Lena- Hessman's home room 

studied the appreciation of literature 

in poetry form. The realization of this 

aim was to be attempted during the 

home room period and in English 

class. 

Attempts were made by pupils to 

compose poems. 

Miss Cecelia Gallagher's English 

classes and home room have been 

working on "Education Week." Pupils 

are writing letters telling what they 

have' done during "Education Week."

Aid Poor Families 

Girls who are taking domestic science 

have volunteered to use their 

time to make garments for the needy 

of Madison. Dresses will be made for 

children from the ages of 10 to 12.1 

These garments are to be ready byI 

Christmas, and will be distributed by 

the Red Cross. 

The families on the relief program 

will not receive any of these garments; 

only families who are needy and who 

have not signed up -for relief. Mrs. 

Siebecker of the Out-door Relief has 

requested that nightgowns be made, 

but she has not decided just what other 

garments besides dresses will be 

made.

Mind -Reader? 


Betty Torgeson anxiously watching in 

all directions. I flit up to her shoulder, 

milddly curious as to what is causing 

her impatience, and hear a nervous 

"Will he come by, or won't he?" 

Then I gleefully slide down the bannister 

to second floor and realize by 

the sounds of confusion emerging from' 

208 that Miss Bohmrich must be away. 

Curious to see what that study is like 

when Miss Bohmrich is not there, I 

enter and am almost squashed into a 

grease spot by a collision, with an airplane. 

When I listen in on the functioning 

of "Teacher" Miriam Baird's 

brain cells, I find that although she 

appears to be studying industriously, 

she is in reality devoutly wishing for 

Miss Bohmrich's return. 

I beat a hasty retreat from that 

chaotic place, thankful that I am still 

intact. As I glance into 217 I notice 

another pupil "teacher"--none other 

than Phyllis Schwoegler. Curious to 

M 

see the difference in her thoughts and 

Miriam Bairds," I recline on the jade 

set in her ring and hear a confused 

humming. I- am a little too far away 

to understand her thoughts clearly, so 

all I can perceive is a jumbled idea of 

C. R. & 

I 

J.- D. (or is it H. G.?) I cannot 

be sure.

But alas,, before I can verify my t

room just in time to escape detection.

'G oose Playlet 

Play Written by Fran k 

Dvorak; Art Work Done 

by Edward Spader, 

On Friday, Nov. 3, the Dianysians 

Dramatic club under the direction of 

Miss Royetta Smith, dramatics and 

English teacher, presented a costume 

play entitled,, "Old King Cole in 

Mother Goose 'Land." 

The play was written by Frank 

Dvorak, under the direction of Miss 

Smith. The art work was done by Edward- 

Spader of the 9th grade art 

class, under the supervision of Miss 

Edith Edwards.I 

The reading was done by Fay 

Haukedahi while Frank Dvorak acted 

as Old King Cole. The music between 

scenes was furnished by Elizabeth 

Park. 

Earlier in the semester the Dianysians 

elected these officers : Fern 

Griffin, president; Donald Maynard, 

vice-president; Billie Usher, secretary; 

Helen Schaub, treasurer. 

This was a new kind of a performance. 

Frank Dvorak, who many believe 

will be a poet, wrote several 

nursery rhymes using the characters 

that lived in Mother Goose land. The 

class dramatized the poems while a 

dressed-up grandmother read them. 

Because this' scheme has not been 

tried in the Junior High before, the 

entire cast loked forward to the performance.
