Crimson and Blue THE CLASS PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE The class of 1933, is leaving Abraham Lincoln High School and before departing wishes to thank our community for the institution it provided for our education. Within Abraham Lincoln and its surroundings we have found opportunities, not only for mental and physical developm ent, but opportunities for the development of friendships; friendships among the members of the student body, among the faculty, and among the business men of our city. These friendships will aid us as we take on our shoulders th ~ great responsibilities of life. As individuals and as a class we are proud of our s:::hool, proud of its name, its traditions, and its faculty. To the school, its name, and its traditions we can say n othing. T o the members of the faculty, who have guided us patiently a nd with much self.denial during our four year quest_, we offer our sincere than ks. Graduation brings to an end our direct affiliations with Abraham Lincoln High School, but it cannot take from us the precious memories which will always be a secret source of encouragement and cheer in times of adversity and doubt, and of inspiration to move forward with renewed vigor toward success. - RONALD PETERSON, President of the Class of 1933. - 16- f Crimson and Blue Miss Bea rd, Olsen, Randolph, Mr. Lee, W illiams, Peterson, McManus SENIOR OFFICERS President .... ..... ....... ... .......... .. .... ......................... .... ........

Boyd Paulson SIGNING OFF The senior year of the class of '33 has been filled to overflowing with achievements, pleasures and services. Lest you, as our memories grow dim, forget those occurrences that made school life a never-to-be-forgotten opporunity, we, the staff of the Crimson and Blue, have gathered these memories into this book, which, we hope signifies the true spirit a nd accomplishments of Abraham Lincoln. We have looked upon our task as a solemn obligation and as a precious privilege. At last the book is done. We hope you like it. - The Sta ff. - 60-- l Crimson and Blue First Row: Burton, Kistle, Phillips, Tuchenhagen, J org::nsen, J ohnston, Gallaher, Pa rmer, Hayes, Prouty, Thorpe, Haas, Pryor.

Crimson and Blue Cheer Leaders: Deetkin, Daggett, Taylor, Keith, Wolpa THE FOOTBALL SEASON CoAcH's COMMENTS This year's football team has been the most successful to represent Abraham Lincoln in the last fifteen years. I highly commend the members of the squad for their determination, attitude, and faithfulness to me and each other. The boys of this group who have played the game as they have, and been so successful, will look back upon football as the greatest sport of all. -WM. K. LAYLAND. SECOND TEAM CoAcH's COMMENTS Although the second team did not win the majority of its games this past season, the score is not the goal for second team competition. The main objectives in second squad football are: Acquiring the fundamentals of football, affording the underclassmen an opportunity for inter-city competition, and development of players for future first team positions. · .:.t:;J -ROY F.

His good guarding was his speciality. WILLARD ANTHON Y (Wid) Captain , Forward "Wid ," was in the thickest of play all the time. His g uarding abil· ity was superior. H e was dangerous when he got a shot at the basket. MATT WALSH (Matt) Captain , Center The long, lanky center who was seldom out· jumped was a n ace at tip· in shots.

This sp ort, unlike man y others, is an ind ividual contest where each boy wms or loses according to his own ability. T he feature o f the sport is the fact that it gives the smallest boy in school as well as the largest a cha nce to make an athletic team. - FEE CH EW. S CH EDULE A .

When he won't, he won't and that's the end of it" It is with a deep feeling of regret that the Class of 1934, the largest ever to be graduated from the Abraham Lincoln High School, leaves these halls. The progress of this community is measured by the ability of each succeeding generation to carry out its ideals and aspirations. Within the next decade the Class of 1934 will play an important part in the progress of this community and each succeeding class will have its part in this great scheme of community building. Through four short years, all too short now that they are behind us, we have shared our joys and sorrows. Now we are leaving, but we will not forget these mutual experiences as we go down the highway of life. We could not enumerate all the worth while things the Senior Class has done; look through the pages of this book and read some of them there. Commencement-that all important day which is the last time the Senior Class meets as a body-is June 1. l}s we go out of the building saying, " Good-bye," to this friend and that, we shall turn and look at Abraham Lincoln High School and f eel that we have successfully passed one of life's milestones. W e will smile as we look- and then go forward toward our second milestone. MARK FLETCHER, President of the Class of 1934.

Dale Chambers THE DRAMATIC YEAR If variety is the spice of life, the dramatic presentations during the past year have been spicy enough to satisfy anyone. The Alpha and Aristo literary societies opened th e season with a rollicking comedy, "Merton of the Movies." The Clios next voiced the question "Are You a M ason?" This was a hilariously amusing farce . "Tillie of Bloomsbury," a charming story of romance and humor, was presented by the Ero and Philo societies. The operetta given by the Glee clubs was an outstanding event of the year. "The M a rriage of N anette" will be remembered for its colorful costumes, graceful dances, and music. Christmas at Abraham Lincoln is always a time of joy and service. This year the freshmen gave for their annual Christmas play, "The Stranger." "Learn how to be charming!" Thus admonished b y the Thalians and Ionians two capacity houses attended "The Charm School." 90 First Ro1V : Klein, Meneray, Brown, Harty, Blank, Stageman, Fisher Second Row: Bebensee, Ebert, Bransby, Bierer, Harding, Bollman The Characters H enry Jordon __ __ _ Emma -- ---- --- -- Nettie ___ __ - - - Sadie Fellows __ _ -- Orin ----- ---------- - Ella Jordon Dr. Curtis -- --- Jane Crosby Judge Bradford Ben Jordon Hannah __ _ Jim Jay ___ _ "IC~BOUND" Produced by the Senior Class Under the Directio11 of Miss Ruth Castle Played by ··-···-······ ·······--·-···-····-· _ __ __ __ D on Harding --- --- ----- ·---------------- -- ---------------- Eileen Brown ·-······-········· ······ ___ Mary Janice Meneray __ ____ __ ____ Erma Harty __ _____ Bruce Bebensee Rosalind Stageman ___ ____ ___ ___ _____ _ Kenneth Ebert ----.. ·-·--- - ____ Jacquetta Klein -- --- -------- _ ______ ____ Joe Bransby _____ H enry Bollman ___ __ Anagene Blank ---·-- -- ----- -- _________ Benjamin Bierer THE DRAMATIC YEAR (Continued) Winsome Peg and her dog, Michael, captured their audience in the Delta T au and Logo play, " Peg O ' My H ea rt." The annual Road Show, sponsored by the Band Mothers' organiza tion, presented a diversified progra_m of mu ic dancing and humorous skits. Outstandmg features were the music by the band the lovely music en- ' ' d 1 "S - " d ' ' semble, the rustic wedding, an tie pnng ance by the athletes. "The Ninth Guest," presented by the Juniors was full of tense situations. With "Icebound" a play strong in delineations of character, the Seniors closed the dramatic year of the school. Student directors who aided Miss Castle and Miss Tamisiea, the facult y directors, were, J acquetta Klein, fVIarj orie Rathbun, Erma Harty, June Meyerson, Mary Janice Meneray, Rosa lind Stageman, Irene Fisher, and Olene Rasmussen . Much praise is due to the many students who worked as members of the stage crew and production staff and to the electricians who achieved many beautiful and unusual lighting effects. 9 1 92 COMMERCIAL CLUB Founded-1932 O FFICERS 1933 Gordon Sweeney ---- -·--·--·-······· President Wayne Amick ·-···- __ .. --··-···-- Vice President ....... . 1934 Everett Britta in Marian Thomas ··-·· Arlene Prior · · · ····-· Inez Larsen Claire Brannen ·--···---··-····-·· --···-·-··-· Secretary --·····-······· ..

He was in the thick of every play, defense or offense. EDWARD CARTER End Hebron, Nebraska certainly missed a fine sportsman and end when Ed came to A. L. H e graduates. GENE DIXON End A fightin' fool! Not a yard was gained around his end in the strenuous climax game, that with Tee Jay. FIDDIE FAIR Center Although Fair was an understudy to Allen last year his ball-snapping was much in evidence this season. HAROLD FLURY End Oh, what a bolstering-up he gave that line! On defense he really charged in from his wing position. THE FOOTBALL TEAM FORREST FOSTER Guard It took a high and mighty bump to send this "stone-wall" out of the game. An opponent usually went out with him. WAYNE GRAYBILL Tackle He instilled more fight into the team by his energy than any other man. He is lost by graduation. FLOYD HERD Halfback Floyd wound up his stellar athletic career at A. L. during the '33 pigskin season. JACK JENKINS Halfback A junior who generally "produced" every time he carried the ball. His services will come in handy next fall. HOW ARD McCUNN Halfback H oward developed into a fine punter last fall. He also answers the call at commencement. JOEL MONTGOMERY Tackle Joel carried on the fine work he started as a sophomore. He was a welcome addition to any forward wall. He comes back. DALE NEWMAN Fullback Perhaps the hardest plunger on the squad. He will be sorely missed next year. DON OLSEN End Don played the game hard and there's no doubt that he earned his letter. He is among the few returning. LANGSTON PARKS Halfback No one needs to be told about this boy's flying feet, e~pecially when the enemy's goal was in sight. A four year man. KENNETH PLANCK Guard This was Planck's first and last year as a near regular, but it was because of stiff competition that his prowess was not given greater sway. THE FOOTBALL TEAM DICK SHAW Quarterback A twisting, twirling, writhing mass of human flesh that took many arms to bring down. Inter-city quarter. He graduates. PAUL STUTSMAN Quarterback "Chief" was a valuable back and a plucky little signalcaller. He has completed his A. L. career. CARL VERGAMINI Tackle Another fierce fighter. Although a junior, he stood up as well as a veteran. Watch him next year. FRED GILSON Manager The manager's job is often almost as difficult as the players'. Fred did a splendid piece of work. TOM STAKER Manager A former star lettermar\, Tommy well knew the wants of chose men before and after a grueling contest. 10 5 106 THE FOOTBALL SEASON Fans and followers who watched Abraham Lincoln's initial g rid game of 1933, predicted a successful season because in that game, played on September 22, the mighty Lynx machine steam-rollered a game Walnut team into submission by a 62-6 count. Bur the prognosticators were wrong. Ir was A. L '.s luck at rimes ro rc-ach g reat heights but at other times A. L. was n Jt so successful. The \Va lnut game was played at night, the first of three night games scheduled on rhe Tee Jay gridiron. On Saturday, September 30, man y A . L. students with high hopes journeyed to Tech's field in Omaha. Their disappointment was grea t fo r the Lynx lacked the necessary goal-line punch. The score was 31-7 for Tech. Ir was a wiser ream that challenged Omaha Central under the Tee Jay arc lights two weeks later. Coach Layland's boys made a gallant effort to duplicate last year's 7-7 score but Central came through with a 7-2 win. This was a well played game, a lthough Central had the ball on our yard line when the contest ended. Then came another exhibition of stellar ball play. \'<!hen the Lynx journeyed to Lincoln on October 21, for their annual tussle with the Red and Black, they had never passed the Lincolnite's goa l line. On that day they broke the precedent twice by crossing just that . many times. However Lincoln crossed ours twice also and was successful in one of its extra tries. whereas we were unsuccessful in both of ours. Therefore, the score stood at 13-12 in favor of Lincoln, N ebraska, but Coach Bill Layland said it was the finest game played by the boys all season. McCunn played his b est game of the season and could be called the Lynx star of that game. The whole team played a good game against the defending Missouri Valley champions. Because of its fine showing against Lincol1:, A. L: was easily the favorite slated to win the Glenwood game the following Friday night, October 21. But Glenwood tied the Lynx 6-6. By virtue of this drawn battle the Mills lads called it a good season. Then on the first Saturday in November occurred one of those very rare spectacles of gridiron warfarea game perfectly played by the contestants and thorou ghly enjoyed by the onlookers. The game was with Mt. Ayr at Mr. Ayr. Although only a handful of Council Bluffs persons saw the game, all the spectators will agree that they sa\v as fine a display of football a s could be produced anywhere. Three scores were chalked up; first, tlm~e points were made by the accurate toe of a Mt. Ayr footballer, then two well played attacks brought touchdowns by Lynx backs, Shaw and McCunn. Every man was fighting and talked fight to the next one. It was a far cry from that glorious afternoon on N ovember 4 to the next Friday night when th e Lynx went down to the lowest score of the entire season. Creighton Prep and Bob Dailey proved to be poor hosts and they sen t a badly stunned Abraham Lincoln team home, beaten by a 40-13 count. Saturday, November 18, found A. L. playing the Red Oak team which it had bea ten 34-0 the year before. Red Oak put up a better fight than was ex peered so Shaw's lone touchdown, scored in the first part of the game, stood as the margin o"f the victory, 7-0. Then came the gra nd climax game of the season , that with T ee J ay. The Lynx played a superb game but came out at th e small end of a 14-0 score. Gene Dixon, the Lynx right end, played a wha le of a defensi ve battle. Statistics showed that the Hilltoppers managed to play right along with the Westenders. With memories of joy and sorrow, victory and def eat the football men of 1933 packed away their suits 111 moth balls; some to don them aga in in the fall of 1934; others, like D a le N ewman, Lang ston Parks, Kenneth Planck, Dick Shaw, Paul Stutsman, Mason Adkins, Edward Carter, Gene Dixon, Fiddie Fair, Harold Flury, Wayne Graybill, Forrest Foster, Floyd H erd, and Howard McCunn, fully aware that they were saying goodby to high school foo tball since they will be graduated in June.

L. 107 108 ·, THE BASKETBALL SEASON Due to the fact that all but one of his splendid team of the year previous had completed their respective high school courses, Coach Bill Layland was more pessimistic than his usual pessimism in regard to the winter hard-court season. Everyone thought that with the dissolution of the State Consolation Championship Team of 1933 Mr. Layland would need time to develop another such aggregation. However, to Coach Layland there was no time like the present, so he proceeded to wrap a great team around the only regular he had back, A. L's most glorious example of true athletic ability, and 1933 Allstate high-school basketball forward, Dick Shaw. Moving Gilson in at center, with Martin in reserve, McCunn as Shaw's running mate at forward, and Stutsman and Newman as crack guards, the Coach saw his team march through a season covered with astounding highlights. The team dropped the first game of the season in a close-scoring battle to Central of Omaha 28-25. Then less than a week later the same squad smothered a game Pilger, Nebraska team with a 42-25 score. In its region Pilger is regarded as the outstanding outfit, partly due to its capable coach, Fred Schneider, a former Abraham Lincoln basket ball star. The schedule then relaxe.d for a few weeks, but the squad kept 111 shape by practicing quite consistently during the Christmas holidays. Even before school resumed after vacation, the team had engaged in two contests. They played poor hosts to Sioux City Central, sending them home on the short end of a 21-16 score. That was on January 5. The next night they proved themselves poor guests by whipping Omaha Tech 28-16. All this time the scoring column was being set afire by the rapid pace of the phantom Shaw. In no single game did he fail to collect twelve or more points; and also several substitutes were swinging into action and making themselves known. These were Graybill, Montgomery, Eaton, Vergamini, Endelman, Viola, and "Shanks" Shaw. All of these f,illed their part when called upon. A week after the Tech game the Lynx staged a thrilling overtime duel with Lincoln, Nebraska's Red and Black warriors. A . L. finally succumbed 37-35. Then in swift succession A. L. romped through eight straight victories until they met Lincoln agam. They trimmed their city rivals, Tee Jay, 29-20; beat Glenwood here 38-29; emerged victorious 34-25 over South; journeyed to Glenwood to nose them out 3 3-27; got revenge on Central for their earlier season licking by handing them a 26-12 set-back; walloped Technical 44-23; and snapped a marvelous 29-game winning streak from Creighton Prep 36-31; and turned back Tee Jay again 43-29. In the last regular schedule game A. L. lost to Lincoln 40-28 down there. The Lynx entertained the sectional tournament here as usual and defeated both Logan and Tee Jay for the right to enter the District tournament. When they beat Tee Jay in the sectional finals 27-23, it was the third consecutive year they had performed the feat of trimming T ee Jay thrice in one basket-ball season. Creston was the site of the District tourney this year. The Lynx drew a bye in the first round and then in a miserably played game Clarinda trounced A. L. 29-21 in the semi-finals. By this fine playing Shaw again earned a berth on the All-state team and broke the inter-city scoring record by compiling 275 points. DICK SHAW Forward The most superb p:ickage of lightning activity ever to flash across A. L's hardwood court. The inter-city's mightiest scoring demon 275 tallies. All-State '33 and '34. DALE NEWMAN Guard A cool headed guard who played a hard, steady game featured by 111 s dependable airtight defensive work. WAYNE GRAYBILL Forward A man whose middle name was "Fight". He was all over the floor with amazing swiftness. FRED GILSON Center Fred crashed through to outstanding center-ship this ea He was kept out of the v r. b an in- ;ectional tournament Y jured ankle. THE BASKETBALL TEAM TOM STAKER Manager Because he played basketball last year, Tom proved to be a capable and knowing manager. PAUL STUTSMAN Guard A splendid sportsman who was in the thick of every play. Ran next to Shaw in A. ·L. scormg. HOW ARD McCUNN Forward Howard proved himself an able athlete this last season. He earned his regular berth through hard work. JOEL MONTGOMERY Guard When Joe was inserted in the game, the opposing offense was sure to be bottled up. Monty has finished his last full year. ELDO MARTIN Center Elda had to wait till his last year to turn in his fine performances for A. L. H e was a popular fellow on the squad. 1,09 110 SECOND TEAM BASKETBALL First Row James Barnes Roger Sulhoff Yerian Hilburne Rex Bruce D ean Jennings Harold Reynolds Dick Read First Row Paul Rauterkus Billy Halpin Carlyle Brickey Tom Quick George Walker Second Row Hymie Diamond Russell Sieffert Donald Stupfell Jack Watson BABY LYNX Second Row Bert Ca ligur Ben Edwards Guy Graybill Bob Fuller Edward Solliday Coach Lawson Not In Picture Roy Claar Billy Seddon Coach Parks Chris Dumas Lawrence Stockman A.

They opened the season by defeating the here-to-fore undefeated Omaha Tech track ream m a dual meet 79-47. They placed second in the Tee Jay meet and participated in the Drake relays.

Jeanette Mark Girls' A1h!etic Direclor: M ary Nix During the seven years of its existence, the Girls' Athletic Association has been outstanding in all school activ1t1es. It is a society composed of girls who have played on school teams or participated in sports, and are tlms eligible for membership. The purpose of the organization is to promote girls' athletics by having those especially interested in sports banded together to form a society. In this way interest throughout the school will be aroused and more girls will participate in sports. Each year this society sponsors volley ball, captain ball, and baseball tournaments among the girls' literary societies. The winners are awarded a cup for their outstanding ability and sportsmanship. T eams representing the tenth, eleventh, an~ twelfth grades are chosen from the G. A. A . to participate in volley ball, basketball, and baseball games with Thomas J efferson and Bloomer high schools. Besides these games, the G. A. A. sponsors hikes, breakfasts, and parties from time to time. This keeps the society alive with interest and also gives the girls a chance to earn additional points in order to win a letter on honor day. 11 4 GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION MEMBERS First Row Ruth Blizzard Aggie Lou Hermes Dorothy Benning F ranees Stoker Alpha Graves Doris McGilvary Jeanette Mark Jean Cummings Wilma Hays J osie Bailey Zoe Nelson Myrtle Tower Second Row Betty Woods H elen Singer Anna Jacobsen Marieum Ball Mildred H emmingsen Bernice Faurm Ruth Haynie Dorothy McDaniel Lorene Harding Lucille Gilbert Third Row D orothea Flesher Nina Korgan Evelyn Larsen Margaret Hauschildt Miss Nix Darlene Williams Natalie Dills Dorothy Gates Claire Rauterkus Fourth Row Vera Derry Fon eta Jensen Ernestine Coate Sylvia Ross Donna Lavely Frankie Lavely Helen Shields Shirley McConnell Not In Picture Marjorie Fox Margaret Harper Lillian Kinder Laura McGilvary Rose Reggio Audrey Twiford I I ~ GIRLS' RIFLE CORPS O FFICERS Kathryn Clark ---·----···· Erma H a rty ----···-·-----·······--·· ········-················-··········-·····---·---··········· ...... .

Now, however, it is an independent organization. Any girl in the school may become a member of this society by paying the initial dues of one d ollar, and seventy-five cents a year thereafter. Due to the large number of girls desiring membership, a limit has been set at one hundred girls. The secret ambition of almost every girl in the school is to be chosen as honorary colonel or major of the R. 0. T . C. and in order to be eligible for either position she must have received her expert medal. In addition to this, five girls are selected as sponsors by t he hoys to represent each of the five companies of the R. 0 . T. C. T he honors are formally proclaimed at the annual Milita ry Ball held in the spring. ! 16 EXPERTS Kath ryn Clark, Erma H arty, Irene Fisher, Fern Jensen, M yrtle Tower, Ruth Blizzard, Rosa lind Stageman, V irginia La inson, O vene H ansen, Ruth McMullen, Cora Blanche Butler.

A N IDEAL AT THE GYMNASIUM From the cris p days of autumn until the dreamy days of June, students find recreation and gaiety beyond the sunny steps of the gymnasium. Spirits are keyed to a high pitch as another game is lost or won. Amid sounds of all activity the shadows of Time li g htly t ouched these steps and here cemented ma ny friendships which grew with our intimate unde rstanding of the world about us as we sought to lea rn how to live. - BETWEEN CLASSES J. A. TRUE Superintendent IN only five years J. A.True has proved to be, not only an accomplished educator, but an outstanding citizen of the city. Among his many activities we find him to be a member of the Boa rd of. Directors of the Kiwanis Club, Boy Scouts and Community Theater, as well as an active member of the Chamber of Commerce, the Inter-professional Institute and the president of the Pottawattamie County Schoolmasters' Club. The earnestness with which he carries out all of his duties shows clearly why Superintendent True has been successful. Principal PRINCIPAL KIRN has proved to be the "principal" figure at Abraham Lincoln high school by increasing our art collection, which is known throughout the middle~west, through securing of the Carnegie allocation and by giving to the student body invaluable educational training through the activity program which he yearly arranges. Students graduating may forget these things, but they will always remember him as a friend who knew all of his students, and that friendly smile and wink have meant a lot. G. W. KIRN DORA G. NYROP ,,,, JOI-IN L. Wl-llTE D~AN OF GIRLS Miss Nyrop is not merely the dean of girls at Abraham Lincoln, but her willing, friendly attitude and her numerous activities as teacher and dean have gained for her the confidence and friendship of the student body. .. DE:AN OF BOYS As a teacher, pastor, father, coach of the art and science of argumentation and speech, and a pupil of philosophy, John L. White has gained valuable knowledge and experience that have fitted him well for the position of dean of boys in Abraham Lincoln high school. Administration Roman Hammes, B. S. Margaret R.

Journalism Engl is h Un iversity of Indiana Uni versity of Nebraska Unive rsity of Iowa DEPARTMENTS No, Abraham Lincoln is no exception. We have studies too! The English department, consisting of American Literature, Debate, Dramatics, Eng· lish, Journalism and Public Speaking, may not make us all into authors, politicians, actors, and syndicate writers, but it will surely accomplish its primary purpose-that of giving us a better appreciation of the finer things in life. In the mathematics department, Algebra, Geometry and Trigonometry make their debut. Who knows but perhaps the great thinkers of tomorrow at one time sat in Abraham Lincoln high school, making little circles with a compass! We may not all have taken advantage of this, but the opportunity was there. Next we look in upon the Social studies, American H .istory, European H istory, American Government, Civics, Economics, Vocations and Psychology. All of these subjects, or any one, give us an idea of what we want our life profession· to be. Then, as we continue on to the Language department, we are gre~t d by Latin, French, Spanish and German. Each gives the tudent ·a more rounded education that may be essential in later life. Architectural drawing, mechanical drawing and art are the three vanat10ns offered in the next ·department. There again we find that the pupil becomes better acquainted with the technicalities and beauties of another world-that of art. In the Science department, we come across our old friends, Biology, Chemistry, General Science and Physics. These subjects invade the mysteries of machines, animals, plants and chemicals. Each caters to the curiosity of the student. The commercial department, boasting of Advertising, Salesmanship, Bookkooping, Business English, Commercial G eography, Commercial Law, Shorthand, and T ypewriting, gives the scholar a peek into the mysteries of the business work that he must soon invade. Next comes the Industrial Arts department with its Manual Training for the boys and its Home Economics for the girls. If a girl would make a good wife, and a boy a good husband, this department would prove valuable in the future. In the music department, Band, Orchestra, and Glee Club present themselves to any whose talents lie in these lines. An appreciation of music has helped many a person during his life. Last, but not least, we gaze into the sports department where physical trammg, foot· ball, basketball, wrestling, track, golf, and tennis reign supreme. Before a person can become meptally successful, he must become physically successful. And thus, we leave the studies of the school behind us, even as we must leave them when we graduate after four years of enjoying the wealth that they have offered. May we each have taken from them, the things that will prove most valuable to us in future years. 18 Classes Peterson, Miss Sherman, Mr. Lee Loomer, Bebensee, Bransby Senior Class Officers On the threshold of an new existence, we, the class of 1935, pause to take a last lingering look upon our four years of preparation within these venerable walls. Four years since the child entered these portals to the ambitious youth who now leaves them forever. To the eye, they seem only antiquated, somwhat out of date. To the mind, they contain memories. They have seen the joy of victory and the disappointment of defeat. In their corners our plans have eyes turned toward the future. The overture is ended; the curtain slowly rises upon the scene of life. With a parting smile, the actors step forward and the drama of life is begun.

And here are a few reasons for that feeling. These thirty-sixers have distinguished themselves in every activity of the _school. Debate, music, journalism, dramatics, athletics, not to mention "just school-work", all have drawn many of their "prizes" from this bunch.

And even this year track at Abraham Lincoln is largely caHied on junior shoulders. The first chair posts in this year's successful band were almost without exception filled by juniors. In other music groups nearly the same situation prevailed.

To become a staff member on either of these publications is the lofty, ultimate goal of every student interested in this type of work as a possible career or as a worthy present project. Members of these staffs represen -' e leaders in the journalistic field of this school. The staffs are carefu~ly selected by the faculty advisers, Miss Sherman of the Annual, and Mr. Lee of "The Echoes", and are approved by the principal, Mr. Kirn. Honor and glory are not the only things available for the students who render service in this manner. Work is the principal ingredient tendered this fortunate group. I If anyone has selected membership on "The Echoes" staff as an easy way to attain something for nothing, we suggest ,that they visit the printing company any Thursday. There in an atmospeer of nerve-wracking, brain distorting, linotype roaring, rattling presses, and growled orders, with the dead line and space limits facing him. We challenge him to enter into the production. We feel sure that he will no longer consider this job a "snap"· _Members of the Annual staff are similar in this respect. Work begins sometime near the middle of the fall term and there is no break or let-up in their efforts until the copy has gone to press about the first of May. Taking pictures, writing stories, reading copy, correcting errors, mounting pictures, identifying, rewriting, rewriting, and rewriting are some of the duties experienced by the staff members. But now-we wouldn't want to leave a false, destructive impression. Desirable contacts, profitable knowledge, and valuable experiences are some of the attributes gleaned from this work. Considerable pleasure is afforded the staff in spite of the somewhat heavy burdens imposed. It is not a hopeless task, however, but is one which yields considerable self-satisfaction. The results are easily observed and there is, indeed, a satisfaction in reading your own "brain child" in "The Echoes" or in the "Annual." There is an expression in the journalistic field that expresses well the feelings of everyone involved in this type of work and that is, "Printers Ink Will N ever Wash Off" . This is not to be interrupted literally but merely as meaning that once you have worked in the journalistic field, you can't get it out of your blood. We, he members of the two staffs, fully appreciate the weight of this expression. -- 48 49 Crimson and Blue Staff Ma rsha ll, Epste in, Rosenkranz , Sherman , So renson, Moore, H annah Filbert, Endelma n, Dra ke , Conl ey , Ma ltz, Baco n, May n e , Da hl, J a ks ha Mag nusse n, V:in Leuva n, e.

We have tried to put these memories forth to you in a new and interesting manner. This task, which has been an unforgettable privilege, has been enjoyed by the entire staff. If we have been able to please the majority of the senior class with our publication we ask for no greater recompense. -THE STAFF.

The excited look on their faces and the fact that they often glance at the dock doesn't mean that they are anxiously awaiting for school to start. They are trying to beat the eightthirty o'clock deadline that accompanies each assignment. However any student of journalism will admit that the time and the work were not spent in vain. Seeing your own writing in print and having the motto of the Echoes, "Echoing Vigorously, J ust!y, and Without Prejudice," constantly before your eyes, give you an inspiration, a feeling of pride, and an ambition to make your paper worthy of being the voice of Abraham Lincoln High School.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, we certainly do. This year we can be especially proud of them, for they consisted of the "cream-of-the-crop." To start it off with a ban3, Mr. Jones presented an electrical demonstration entitled "Dancing Electrons." We have now had the novel experience of seeing, as well as hearing, a voice sing. _ What could have been more appropriate for oberving Constitution week, September 16-22, than a speech by Mr. Raymond Smith, local attorney, on "History and Origin of the Constitution." "Romantic Age," presented by the well-known Hedgerow Players, showed us the result of day-dreaming of the old age of chivalry. "What you are to be, you are now becoming." This statement has been the object of much discussion since it was stated by Cameron Beck, personnel director of the New York stock exchange. Iowa University loaned us their professor of chemistry, Edward Barton, for an afternoon to tell us of "Relation of .. Chemistry to Industry." · Chemistry again scored a point when a graduate of the University of Nebraska, James Williams, demonstrated "Liquid Air". Although it was only November, he shot fireworks of cigarettes, charcoal and cotton in liquid air. Quaint scenery made-up the background for "Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves" and "Pinnochio" which were presented by Rufus Rose's, "Century of Progress Marionettes." Armistice Day was observed with a speech by Dr. Aldis A. Johnson, an oversea veteran and Legion member. Mme. D. Pirie Beyea, World \Xfar nurse and noted European traveler, told us how to "Hitch-hike Through Europe." Although it would almost be impossible to improve Dickens, Stanley Brooks, world's best Dickensian Artist, came mighty close. During the second semester, music filled a larger part of the assemblies. First was Luther King from Cleveland, Ohio, who is a negro tenor and who was formerly with the Fiske Jubilee singers. Metropolitan Opera Company furnish ed the next singer, Edwinia Eustis, contralto. 'SThe Bird Man" of Boulder, Colorado, ornathologist and forest-ranger, told us the language of the birds. Mr. Hutchins also whistled several songs as the birds would do them. We were taken on a musical tour around the world by Jane Dudley, violinist. The "Hilger Trio", players of chamber music, played arangements by Fritz Kreisler, M endelson, Beethoven. Light opera prodtiction was presented by Woods Miller, baritone. The second play of the season was given by the Abraham Lincoln Players, headed by Francis Brandt. This play centered around the life of Abraham Lincoln. Monkeys, rabbits, and even mice were used by Joha W . Fr~ e, magician, as he tricked the student body. The M anhattan String Quartet, chamber music sensation of the season, presented a never-to-be-forgotten assemlby. A different type of prog ram was given by the Midland College a Capella Choir. Finally, after eight months ef expectant anticipation on the part of the student body, tf1e National H onor Society named its new members at an assembly. Throughout the season the activities programs furnished a successful and delightful series of ente rtainment.

Comedies-farces-melodramas-tragedies-and fantasies, through all these we have the ch nce to be some one other than ourselves and see others who can bring us a vivid picture of a life just a little different from the ordinary life at school. -- 72 73 DRAMA The year nineteen hun1red and thirty-five has brought to Abraham Lincoln varied selections from the dramatics department under the direction of Ruth Tamisiea and Ruth Castle whose work is indeed worthy of recognition among the activities of the school. The season opened with the Clio-Logo hit-production "Honor Bright" starring Maxyne Ballew and Harry Jensen with roles showing how an unrefined girl d:ies not fit into the picture formation of a refined family. But "all's well that ends well" and thus "Honor Bright" ended. Janet Gaynor and Warner Baxter lent their roles to Adele Jeppesen and Eric Bransby in "Daddy Long Legs", Ero-Bye production. This story, centering around an orphan girl and a wealthy man, presented the hardships of a child left entirely alone in the world .. Kenneth Camden was only "Seventeen" in the Thalian-Aristo production. Nevertheless, he loved the baby-talk lady, Charlotte Pressler. The story typified not only the problems of many a high school youth but also the problems of many an adult today. "Avez-vous alle a 1 histoire 'Big Pond?'" If you did go, you saw a young girl give preference to a penniless prince with charm over a successful business man with no charm. Dorothy Dargel and Phyllis Thorpe shared honors in portraying the charming young girl in this Delta-Philo play. Do you ever feel as though life isn't worth living? If so, do as Donald Olsen did in the Alpha-Ionian "A Prince There Was." Do something good for someone. Perhaps you will have an incentive such as Patty Phillips, too. The Road Show with its variety of entertainment ranked next in order-a variety program, indeed, with everything from hill-billy bands to a 1860-1935 styleshow. Abraham Lincoln challenges any Chicago or New York roadshow to be more amusing than their 1935 production was. Blood curdling thrills, hair raising sensations, quivering tre!11ors-you witnessed them all in the junior play, "Spooks". Jere Van Rensselaer and Bernard Verdin headed the cast which ended by solving all the mysteries of a haunted house in which several people lost their lives. Is acting worth the difficulties you meet and the happiness you sacrifice? l'viarian Dahl and Eric Bransby thought so in the senior production "The Royal Family". The plot gave the hectic life of a theatrically minded family of three generations. The operetta "Joan of the Nancy Lee" portrayed some very fine dramatic talent as well as musical ability. Betty Busselle as Joan and owner of the ship Nancy Lee gave her rank of captain to Richard Camden, played by Lee Gotch, when Dick won her heart. The Masque and Wig, dramatic society, has taken an active part in the production of many one-act plays. Many of the productions have not only been given for the school but also for many clubs and other schools of Council Bluffs. This organization cooperated in the purchase of the new curtain received through the donation of literary societies and rummage sales sponsored by members of the school. May the year 1936 bring to Abraham Lincoln as many successful hit productions m the dramatic field as the year 1935 has brought. Robinso n House.

Adjectives cannot describe this melodramatic mystery "Spooks" presented by the junior class. Shrieking screams, disappearance of guns, and leaves mysteriously torn from books in plain sight, murders! W hose spine wouldn't quiver with chills! Roaring thunder, beating ram, flashes of lightning, and howling wind-all added to the horror of the haunted house.

"The Royal Family" by George Kaufman and Edna Ferber was the senior dramatic production for the year. The erratic actors, the Cavendishes, make-up three generations; Fanny Cavendish, the oldest, is an actress of the fine old school, a trouper if there every was one; Julie Cavendish is her daughter, a marvelous actress who has made a name for herself in the theater, and Gwen Cavendish, Julie's daughter, whose stage career is just in its infancy.

Thus we describe the members of the opposing debate teams whether they a re participating in a decision debate or merely indulging in a bit of practice. The debate begins in a very calm manner, but at the end of the first constructive speech, cards <1te hurriedly arranged by the next student to take the floor. In similar manner each side struggles to uphold his side of the question, and when the decision is announced, the winners resolve to continue their winnings and the losers immediately strive to become winners.

Declamatory, Extemporaneous Winners Bean, D a hl, Price, Olsen .r MUSIC Work began early in September to make this the most successful year in the history of music at Abraham Lincoln, and indeed it proved to be another step up the ladder of achievement. Of course, m~sic was furnished for each play, but the first produ~tion given by the department itself was the operetta, "Joan of the Nancy Lee", December 8-9. Due to the hard work and complete cooperation of everyone connected with it, the operetta was a very a'."tistic pe:·formance. After that, bes'd s pe,forming for various groups, rehearsals began in earnest for the contests. The first cne entered was the M. I. N. K. contest at Peru, Nebraska. This includes entries from four states, Missouri, Iowa, Nebraska, and Kansas. Abraham Lincoln received superior ratings in small groups and soloists. Next, were the sub-district and district contests at Logan and Shenandoah, respectively, where Abraham Lincoln, for the second consecutive year, was awarded the sweepstakes trophy for Class AA. During this time, rehearsals were in progress for the fourth Road show given April 11, 12, and ..P'3 . The Road show, sponsored by the musicians to raise money to go to Iowa City, corf'fisted of twenty-five acts. and was presented all three nights to full houses. It was considered one of the most professional performances ever produced by an entire school cast . One of the finest things done by the music department during the year was the presentation of a concert at the Joslyn Memorial in Omaha. This program, consisting of several numb<;-ts, was given on April 19. Its main object was to show the people of Omaha and Coun,eil Bluffs just what was being done in the music field at Abraham Lincoln. Then came the spring concert, just preceding the trip to Iowa City for the State contest, with a variety of entertainment. This is an annual event and it was again performed 'to a capacity audience. The Iowa State Music Festival was held at Iowa City on May 2-3-4. As usual, the district winners, including the band, orchestra, glee clubs, small groups, and soloists, represented Abraham Lincoln in the contest. The glee clubs had a reputation to uphold, for last year all three large vocal groups were rated superior at Iowa City. This was, of course, in addition to. the other high ratings received by other groups and soloists. Because it was necessary to transport such a large number of students for the contest, a great responsibility was taken by everyone. Nin~ superior ratings were won. A new system was just begun in regard to the national contests. The National Contest for band and orchestra is to be altered each year. This was the scheduled time for orchestra competition. All orchestras receiving a superior rating at their respective State Contest were eligible. Last year the band attended the National-Contest at Des Moines. As a culmination of their activit;es throu ghout the year, the music department as usual assisted at the Commencement exercises to complete a highly successful season. 78 79 0 R c I-I t s T R A Band Purdy, Smith, Giles E sancy, Franklin, Negethon, Schlemm er, Purdy, Clatterbuck, Conley, Siebert, Longely, W a.rford, Kiger, Hilton, Negeth on , Hays, Frame, Kobbert, Toms, Hilton, Stowe Thomas , Briggs, Kutler, Winn, Orrell, Cayne, Payne , Bachman, Hoffma n, Laughlin, Bamford, Herwig, Bacon, Parker, Sorens on, Tyler, Fernley, Bair, Kirn, Owen Adams, Ma nn, Leuth, Gebuhr, Rowe H a nna, Marsh aJI, Meie rma n , W oodwar d , Wright , llutle r, Opal, Briggs, Thorne ll, H o ffman, ·Maltz Schley, H o lst, Scott, Deputy, 1\1.orrow, Coate, Zimmerman, Knapp, Evans, Sessions, Esancy Bergman, Ste inberg, Bachman, S'·mith, H eath, Hamilton, Wo rtn1an, Jensen, Swan, Parks THE BAND AND THE ORCHESTRA It's Armistice day!

It really is a very worth while distinction as the members of the Girls' Athletic Association select her, not alone for athletic ability, but on the qualities of good posture, leadership, cooperation, and interest which she shows. And another thing, girls- she must have an "A" average in physical training. So, if you ever intend to be Miss Abraham Lincoln, you will have to get busy!

A. Activities Under the sponsorship of G. A. A. organized sports were introduced to the girls of Abraham Lincoln High. During the year such sports as skating, bicycling, swimming, volley ball, baseball, and dancing were planned for the girls. The object of these sports was to urge high school girls to participate in some outdoor sport. The "point system" was adopted to encourage them to participate in the variety of activities offered to them. The outstanding girl athletes of the school represent one of the various sports offered by the Girls' Athletic Association under the supervision of Miss Nix. From early fall until late spring organized and unorganized sports give an opportunity to all girls to become athletic. Even vacation with its pleasant release from class room duties finds the girl athletes still interested m outdoor sports and still working for points that may gain for them t h e cherished membership among the girls who win letter awards from Abraham Lincoln High School. 92 93 Basketball Playing a spectacular but consistently strong game during the entire season, these girls are the city basketball champs. Meeting T . ]., I. S. D., and St. Francis, the team's record was four winning games out of five. The members of the team were: Capt. Faurm; Nelson, Nixon, Schroeder, Feyerabend, Vuagniaux as guards; Gates, Inman, Voss, Jones, Singer, Berry as forwards. Perhaps the most exciting game of the season, was when Thomas Jefferson, traditional rival, bowed down to the "Lynx ladies" after a tedious struggle for supremacy. Nor was the the enthusiasm of the tourney confined to the mere winning of games; girls of the school were as excited as to the outcome of each game, as was the entire student body in regard to the boys' district basketball contest. The team was sponsored by Miss Mary Nix, physical education instructor.

Jenkin's short, chubby legs drive him forward into the wall of wild-eyed boys. Two muscular arms belonging to Carl V ergamini, known as the strongest man in the two cities, reach out and once more he makes one of his bone crushing tackles. Four yards to go- lined up again-this time it's a long end run by Reynolds, fast as lightning and as hard to catch . H e tears around and jumps aside as he skirts the three men of his interference and Drustrup, opposing end, has rolled. H e heads toward the side lines and is finally downed by Dick Olsen. One of Dick's virtues is that he never quits till he gets the tackle. Another line smash - this time it is "Flatfoot" Binder. He hits hard but in turn is rolled over and over by Walt Bussey. Walt is one of the best guards Abraham Lincoln has turned out in years. Size means nothing to Bussey. H e rolls them all. Another plunge by J enkins. He tries to go throu gh Montgomery, Nw?;ent, and Endelman but the " terrible three" smother him for a loss. Montgomery has starred for two years and knows his stuff. N u3ent, the heaviest man on Roger Sulhoff William· Roberts Carl \Villimns 96 97 the line, is like a brick wall when it comes to defense and Bob, whose clowning was the delight of the fellows and the despair of the coaches, forgets his joking, and settles down and plays the football of which he is capable. A brief huddle and the ball is snapped, this time to Sulhoff, diminutive _ quarter whose accurate passing and clear thinking put him on the first team. He fades back and uncorks a beautiful long pass to Don Olsen, light but fast end, far down the field. Olsen catches the ball but is downed by Quick, triple threat man. The ball changes hands and "Red" Fuller, junior sensation, receives the ball from Lyle Hanson, the fighting Dane. He tries an off tackle drive but is smacked down by Charley Milner, hard tackling end. Next to him is Watson, big and heavy. He's worked hard for his letter. A beautiful long run by Williams, who sprints in a footba ll suit as though in a track suit, is stopped by Roy Claa and Bernard Verdin, two more of the strong junior men and wonderful material for next year . . The shadows lengthen-the air turns crisp-Coach Layland blows his whistle-two laps and then-a warm shower-a big meal-and to bed. The football season 1s over. The last ball has been thrown; the last joke played. Formed friendships, strengthened by hard combat, will cause uniting of the "gang" in the years to come. Good luck to themthe football team -of '34.

Roger Sulhoff Dean Jennings Talmage Quick James Watson Frank Friar James Barnes Bernard Eaton Harold Reynolds Dick Read Joel Montgomery Basketball It was an eventful day just to watch the first team's scrimmage. Dean Jennings, captain, was a dependable player on the team. He starred on defense, as well as being a constant threat on the offense. His running mate was Talmage Quick, a junior, who made the first team because of his smooth floor work and eye for the basket. The close guarding of Harold Reynolds, fast and snappy star, and the alertness of Joel Montgomery, an old dependable, made a strong combination that specialized in breaking up winning attacks. Montgomery and Jennings alternated at center and guard. Frank Friar was always ready with his uncanny ability to sink baskets. Hot on the heels of the first five were such men as Martin, a tall center who specialized in long shots; Sulhoff, who could handle the ball quicker than any man on the squad; Barnes, who worked from the second squad to the first team, starring in many games; Eaton, who delighted with his free style of motion; Solliday, who rivaled Sulhoff in handling the ball besides being an impossible person to guard; and last but not least, Watson, an energetic, dependable player. They all paced the first squad so hard that it was a nip and tuck affair all season to know who were to start in the games. The cheering shouts of the fren zied crowd no longer ring in the gymnasium. The grueling hours of toil are over for most of you. You will graduate - others will take your places and tasks, but you will not be forgotten. Your clea11 sportsmanship a n d fighting spirit will go on forever. 100 10 1 Second Team Basketball R ober ts.

The birds hush their singing aIJd the leafy trees gently wave their branches in dumb appreciation, for down the steps of the school there comes a picture that only the happiness of May could reproduce. Twelve maidens, gowned in pastel colors, slowly descend toward the waiting throng, paving the way for one whose beauty is garbed in flowing robes. Bathed in the radiance of her own smile comes the May Queen! This is the highest honor for the outstanding girl of Abraham Lincoln, for this girl is chosen for leadership, scholarship, character, citizenship, and extra-curricular activities. From these· basic qualities in 1935, Abraham Lincoln high school hailed Adele Jeppesen as Queen of May" with Jane Bebensee as her maid of honor. 104 Listen And Ye My Shall Children Hear The Re-echoes For Head Line Readers Only RE-ECl-IOING JUSTLY, VIGOROUSLY, AND WITI-1 PREJUDICE September and October November and December Annual Grind Begins as Bransby Chosen School Opens Portals As Presi_dent in .

Seven E ight Building. Mellowed with age, what citizens it has made! For more than thirty-five years pupils, through this institution, have been guided into lives of usefulness. Soldiers, doctors, lawyers, merchants-but most of all, good countrymen have been initiated here into the fundamentals of that preparation so essential to right living. Library. The city library is an important auxiliary of the school system, generously contributing its facilities and se rvice t o a id pupils and teachers. Nine Dodge Memorial Commemorative of e a r I y Council Bluffs' foremost citizen , soldier, and railroad builder, this monument to Mrs. Dodge offers touching tribute of grateful d a ughters to a beloved mother. Te n Lincoln Memorial Memories of "Honest Abe" are not confined to this site alone, but permeate the city which he established as a railcenter. Kinsman Memorial At this monument to a pioneer journalist, teacher, and Civil War hero, Council Bluffs pays homage to its war dead each year. Pottawattamie County Historical Cabin Seventy-five years ago the pioneer movement was at its peak here. Relics remain, making history, but the spirit with which these early settlers en - dowed us pushes civilization on! E leven T we lve The Story Just one hundred years ago Trader fires began to glow, Red men lived throughout the woods, White men came to trade them goods; Further back, in eighteen four, Clark and Lewis came ashore, Smoked the red skins' pipe of peace Which for decades did not cease. Littl e did the red man dream H e mu st move on down the stream. Move he did with pain and fears, Making room for pioneers. De Smet in a valley cool Built a little church and school; H e re the Mormons stopped to rest Near the gateway to the West; Here at Kanesville in the woods W ago n trains were stocked with goods. As the village grew to fame Council Bluffs was made its name; Lincoln said that he would call This the U. P. terminal. Where was waste land long ago Shops and mills began to grow; Tepee s now were of the past, Modern homes were here at last. That's the story up to date,- . ' .. -- ··-;-. ,. ') , · '• ' ' Yesterday-Pioneer of all teachers, Father De Smet came here a century ago to spread his philosophies among the untutored redmen. Faculty Today-a capable faculty guides the destinies of a rising generation to higher ideals and more valorous deeds for another century of still more amazing achievement. T h ir lt·t·n Fourteen JOHN A. TRUE, Superintendent Intelligent supervision of the educational facilities of our city is in his hands. His unanimously acknowledged ability and clear outlook have done much t o make our lives happier and more successful. GERALD W. KIRN, Principal A man brave enough to undertake the hazards of principalship; to do it carefully, thoughtfully, and with high enterprise. Difficulties can not hold him back. He forge s straight a head and essays to bring every benefit to the school and its students. Nothing is spared to enrich our lives. F ift een S ix tce11 Benjamin S.

SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS Graduation affords us, the class of 1936, the opportunity of applying effectively for the first time the casts of our characters which have been moulded during our high s~hool careers. We wish to express our appreciation to the citizens of our city for the chance they have given us to equip ourselves for the future. We entered Abraham Lincoln as freshmen, and through the process of years, we have now become seniors, possessing a clearer outlook on life, a basic foundation for knowledge, and formulas for an honest, intelligent way of living. To our instructors we extend our gratitude for their guidance in these four years of learning. Through them we have gained a more detailed study of the past, present, and future in all the realms of study. We have been afforded the best in the opportunity for fortifying ourselves for the situations confronting us in the years ahead. Despite individual grades, honors, and intellects, the same paths of success have been opened to each of us. We can take out into the world only that with which we have availed ourselves. Our high school days have come to their close-a new life lies before.

And yet he is living-living and exemplifying art for a ll th ose who pause to stud y h im. The group pictured here-the famous Blue Boy and th e statues, Diana Rahin g :ind Hebe-are typical of a rem;irbble collec tion of p;iintings ;ind st;ituary in the ha lls and rooms of Abrnham Lincoln , ;i collection th:it is one of the l:ugest of its kind in the schools of the Middlewest. In our halls are approximately sixty reproductions of pa intings of undisputed reputation, an d three originals. Such masters as Raphael, Whistler, Gainsborough, Corot, Va n Dyke, Sargent, Reynolds, and Ve lasquez are represented. A group of twelve F rench, Dutch, and American moderns han g in the study hall. In the classrooms are some twenty-five famou s reproductions, and a number of va luable photographs. Besides the paintings, twelve pieces of statuary are distributed throughout the building, :ind every morning we ;ire greeted in the front hall by our best beloved statue, a large one of St. Gaudens' Abraham Lincoln. Seven plaques and medallions and three se ts of freizes are included in the coll ec tion. One of these sets is Thorwaldsen's "Triumphal Entry of Alexander Into Babylon". Another is from the Parthenon of Greece. The senior class is presenting the school with the Cantoria Frieze by Lucca de! Robbia this spring. The present collection has been many years in the making and it is being added to constantly. Art is not a sermon-it has no moral. Yet art creates an atmosphere in which the good unconsciously grows, the beautiful refines, and the perfect suggests the perfect. THE CARNEGIE COLLECTION Because of its collection of fine paintings and reproductions and its outstanding program of mass aesthetic aoprecia tion, Abraham Lincoln was presented with the gift of an Art Teaching Reference Set by the Carnegie Foundation this yea r. In this way it has come to possess one of the finest and most complete high school art libraries and ex hibits in the country. Included in this unusual addition to the art source materia l of the school are books on all phases of art: general histories, volumes on many types of ;i.rt, on the contribution of various countries, and on the work of noted indi vid~1a . Nearly all of these books are lavishly ill ustrated ::J.nd many of them consist la rgely of beautiful pictures. There arc books on ancient art, on arts and crafts, and on costume ;i. nd furniture. A large number of volumes dea l with the history and th e hroad subject of art itself. Four volumes deal with medieval art. The contribution of the Rennaissance to art is discussed in twelve books. Two interesting divisions are those on prehistoric art and the grea t masters. A most important section is that containing mounted many of the f inest works of art in a ll ages: paintings, sculptme, architecture, and mosaics. There are approximately 840 reproductions in this collection. The reproductions of modern art which accompanied the collection have been framed and hung in 315, giving the room the pleasing effect of an art ga llery rather than that of a study hall. The entire collection of books and mounted pictures is housed in an attractive cabinet built by students. Although the gift has been in the school less than a year, it has demonstrated its va lue in many ways, and the work almost of every pupil has been affected thereby. Who can estimate the va lue of this collection in fitting youth for richer living through a deeper appreciation of beauty? Forl:v~nine SENIOR BABIES!

Activities Today-Sacrifice and courage brin g a complex world for us today-and with it an opportunity of becoming th e foremost of men and women through an all-arou nd training for leadership in the growing complexity. Fifty-two ACTIVITIES As students of Abraham Lincoln H igh School, we arc indeed privil eged to have t he opportunity of entering into many va ried outside activities. Coming first in publications is the Echoes, a weekly newspape r put out by second semester journalism pupils. The Crimson and Blue, yearly annual, is pu blished by a sel ected g roup of seniors. The entire year's work of the school is surveyed in the book . Forensics include deba te, declam, and cxtempos. Contests in these di visions ori g in a te in the various litera ry societies. The picked winner of each socie ty then competes with other society winners and in this manner, the school's champion is chose n. Poise, cha rac ter, speaking ability and similia r qualities are all promoted in this group. Band, orchestra, and g lee clubs are given pe riods of th eir own d uring the d ay in which to practice. Each year an operetta is given by th e senior glee members a nd is assisted by the orchestra. Contests of sub-district, district, state and n;itional ori g in a rc entered as part of the project in music. Specia l voice cl asses are also held . There are nine literary societies-five for girls and fo ur for boys. It is in these organizations that culture, leadership, character, and sportsmanshi p a rc hig hl y d eveloped . Everyone is given a ch:ince to show his talents in one way or ::inoth cr, t hroug h p lays, debate, or as an officer of the group. The athletic, commercia l, dramatic, and language cl ubs have orig ina ted from t heir respective school divisions. They are usuall y organized for entertainment or sports. Coming as a climax to all the enjoyable activities are the plays. Every yea r th roug h the co-operation of each literary society, five comedies are g iven. The junior class produces a mystery play and the senior class a d rama. Besides these, one short Ch ristmas play is presented. CRIMSON AND BLUE STAFF Time marches on. For more than six months we, the members of the Crimson and Blue staff, have labored to get out the 1936 edition, under the guidance of Miss Eleanor Baptist, sponsor. W e have enjoyed the labor it took to erect this milestone and we appreciate the honor of being chosen to do it. But as time marches on, never to return, our only hope is that this milestone may guide you back to countless scores of pleasant memories, as you continue marching along with time.

DECLAMATORY SPEAKING Three girls stir their audience to laughter and re:irs, :ind wm ove r n111 e other contestants in the finals of the declam speeches. ORIGINAL ORATORY Harry Jensen climaxed a highly successful speaking career at Abraham Lincoln by winning third place in the state original oratory contest. J ensen began as a sophom.ore with the male lead in "Peg O' My H eart," and continued to distinguish himself in d eba te, oratory, ex temporaneous speaking, and dramatics. Fifty -s eve n F;fty-e ig ht BAND Although other music groups have earned equally enviable records in contests, to many A. L. pupils "music" means the band. And small wonder. What organization is more often in the spotlight than the band in its brilliant crimson and blue uniform coats, gleaming white duck trousers, sparkling buttons, and shining. silver and gold horns? A t games, on the field or in the gym, at inspection, and in all the parades, the picture isn't complete until the arrival of the bandsmen. And-finest of all, you can always count on their being on the job, whether that job is marching down a frozen football field between halves, with the icy wind blowing a gale, or leading the regiment in parade on one of those sultry, 95 ° in-the-shade days of May. All this is just the marching, blaring band of the open air. But there's another phase of the work of the band, the one not so well known, perhaps, but even more important. It goes on each day during the sixth period and frequently after school and in t he evening, when the band, in shirts-sleeves now, sits and drills, learn ing the fundamentals of technique and expression at first, and then applying them in the selections which they pl:i y at concerts and contests.

This year, the band, together with the orchestra and glee clubs, presented a series of Sunday vesper concerts in the gymnasium. They were successful in that they not only afforded an opporrunity for these groups to gain experience, but they a lso gave t he pa trons of the school an opportunity to hear what the students were accomplishing. Since the band won superior rating in the state contest last year, it did not compete 111 the district or state contests, but was privileged to go directly to the national contest at Cleveland this year. As that contest came very late in the term, it was impossible to obtain the results of the competition for this annual. It is ce rtain, however, t hat if the band members went, they did very well, for it is the concensus of opinion among competent observers that this yea r's band was the equal, if not the supe rior, of any hand thar eve r: represented Abraham Lincoln. ORCHESTRA Since the orchestra had competed in the National High School Orchestra contest at Madison, Wisconsin, in 1935, this year's work consisted mainly in laying the foundation among underclassmen especially, through the district and state contests, for an organization in 1937 which would be well able to compete with the finest groups of the entire country. In this objective, the orchestra has been very successful, as can be determined before the outcome of the state contest can be learned. Although several strong musicians were lost by graduation, others have come to fill their places, and, as a whole, the general standard of musicianship seems to be higher now than in the past few years, at least.

Incidentally, this year's contest number is one of the most bea uiful that has ever been chosen-"Symphony in D Minor" by Cesar Frank. Naturally, these contest activities do not constitute all of the work of the orchestra. It furnishes music for almost all the plays, the operetta, and the various assemblies and programs of the school. Taken all in all, its contribution to the school and to individual pupils is probably as great as that of any other organization . Certainly no one can play in the orchestra during a period of years and not gain an appreciation of music that will enrich his whole life. Fift ~nine Sixty SENIOR GLEE One of the largest, most active, and most useful organizations of the entire school, the senior glee clubs embraces the fifty members of the boys' glee and sixty of the girls'. This group contains the pick of the singing talent of the school, and this year bids fair to duplicate the very fine record of last year's group at the State M usical Festival. These singers have all won their places in competition with others, and when a still smaller group is picked to go to the contests, they will also be chosen in the same \vay.

JUNIOR GLEE T he J unior Glee dubbers seldom appear before the public, devoting themselves rather to building a solid musical background for their later careers in the senior groups. OPERETTA One of the most colorful , bright and picturesque operettas was "Riding D own the Sky," written by Goeffrey Morgan, which was presented by the Senior Glee clubs. Spanish costumes, colorful dances, and good acting molded together made every minute of this production real entertainment. W ith very capable leads, as \vell as a good supporting cast, the show was one of the highlights of the season. Under the most capable direction of M iss Kathleen Shaw, and with the untiring cooperation of her most efficient business and production staffs, the operetta was a great success.

Bang! and another record is shattered by the brilliant 1936 rifle team which closed the most impressive season ever encountered by such an Abraham Lincoln team. A winning squad throughout the season, the sharpshooters reached a thrilling climax by winning the championship of the seventh corps area in the annual William Randolph Hearst Trophy matches by chalking up 924 points out of a possible 1,000.

Y et the seemingly hapless Lynx gained wide recognition for their fl ashes of powe r in several off ensive thrusts and goa l line stands. Local sports scribes also repeatedly pra ised their fighting, do-or-die spirit in face of overwhelming odds. In the initial encounter of their fo rmidable schedule, the Lynxsters encountered Omaha Benson, later winner of the Intercity and Interstate crowns, in a hard fought battle, September 20 under the T ee Jay "arcs." The Bunnies were victorious by a 13 to 0 coun t. The fo llowing week on the same field the surprisingly strong Omaha Techstc rs hammered over a 27 to 0 win. Scoring an upset, Iowa School for the D eaf emerged victorious 6 to 0 the fo llowing week in the first game played on the newly improved hilltop field. Omaha Central's strong defending intercity championship team invaded the Lynx coup nex t and found tough going in squeezing out a hard contested 14 to 0 victory on the West End field. Improving steadily, the squad took its first and only trip of the season, October 18, to battle the bulky Missouri V alley aggregation. H ere their pent up scoring power re - leased itself, giving the Lynx their first victory of the yea r by the score of 12 to 0. A victory in the case of the Lynx was not a tonic, as the Lynx d ropped into a midseason slump, losing to Glenwood 35 to 0 and Logan 40 to 0 in two successive weeks. The annual Thomas J efferson game was played Armistice D ay on the snow covered hilltop field. Handicapped by the snow, the light Lynxsters, depending on speed, were bottled up, resulting in their bulkier rivals gaining an 18 to 0 victory. After being doped to lose by six touchdowns in the Sioux City game, an inspired Lynx team held its powerful opponents to three scoreless stanzas, only to lose by a freak play caused by a slow whistle late in the last period, giving rhe visitors a seven point victory ma rgin. The "Turkey D ay" game scheduled with Omaha South was cancelled which resulted in the carrying through of plans fo r a second Thomas J eff erson game. The Lynx again provided a thriller, losing only by the close score of 7 to 2 on the icy, wind-swept T ee Jay field . O f the twenty-three boys who received letters, only twelve closed their careers at t he end of the T ee Jay game. Those twelve will little remember the team's defeats, but the happy memories of the companionships and good clean fun on the hilltop can never be fo rgotten. T o the school the season's record little matters, but the characteristics-hard fighting play, never-give-in attitude, and clean sportsmanship-which are the chief goals in athletic training, made Abra ham Lincoln proud of the 1935 foo tba ll team. Ninety -t h r ee Toss T . N. T. into an opponent's offense and you have the effect produced by Leon Skelton's smashing defensive play. "Skelly," a 1u111or, made all.Southwestern Iowa's second team. G erald, " Pat," Stevens was another junior to show his stuff. Pat substituted at tackle, where he gave a good account of himself. He was a minor letter winner. Bernie Verdin's consistently steady play made him a bright spot in the line. Bernie brought his Hilltop playing to a close with two letters tucked away. Opponents thought twice before attempting a play through Roy Claar's tackle position. His fine defensive work pulled the team out of many a tough spot. Another under-classman who gained a starting position at guard is Joe Paladino. Gains were seldom made through the guard position without Joe's say so. Another new comer who gave a good showing of himself, holding down the tackle position, is dimpled Bill Bell. Bill was noted for his stubborn fighting spirit. Playing his first year as varsity end, Bol Spellmeyer gave a glowing account of himself. Bob will be back to bolster the hopes for next season's squad. N ine ty -four Don Stupfcll was perhaps the most consistent player on the team. It will be hard to replace a blocking ha lf of as high a caliber as D on. T he sptnt of the entire squad was per· sonified in Allan, as dependable and concientious a football player as ever wore the Crimson and Blue. Never absent from a practice in two years of competition, T om was a fine passer, one of the best blockers on the squad, and a deadly tackler. T om will be missed as much as the brightest star on the squad. Quick sends a spiraling punt out of the Lynx end zone as Skelton blocks Moser, T. J back, out in the first struggle with the Y cllowjackets. Steady and dependable Carlysle Brickey showed plenty of prospective power as a ,iunior. Carlysle, a minor letter winner, will be the nucleus of the next year's backfield. Chet Bowers showed enough fig ht while playing substitute end to wa rrant himself a minor letter. Chet will be back next year. An educated toe plus 150 pounds of driv· ing energy in the personage of Talmage Quick gave opponents many anxious moments. "Tam," is a two letter man in football. Whether skirting end or smashing off tackle, Boh Fuller was good for yardage on every try. " Red" ended a brillianr two year! at ha lfhack for the Lynx. Bernie Verdin and Don Stu pf ell stop Eldred " Punk" Arch in one of his Armistice day plunges of the A. L.-T. J. clash. Cone and Solliday arc coming up to help stop the big Orangeman. The speed of Carl \Xlilliams, halfback, gave opponents many a headache. "Speedball " gained two letters while playing football for the Hilltop. Take brains, add an extra measure ol elusiveness, and mix with fighting spirit anc. you have Eddie Solliday, diminutive first string quarterback, an asset to any team. A sophomore, Joe Kmezich, held down a first string end position in his first year of football. Joe's expected to do big things next year. Gaining the all-Southwestern Iowa thin:'. team tackle was just one of the accomplishments of Louis Profeda. Stella r lineman Louie will be back. A main factor in every play, J ack Cone was one of the be~t guard5 in the Intercity. Jack will be back next yea r to give opponents more worries. Wa lter Brandt portrayed a smashing utility lineman, doing his best when substituting at center. Not many backs found gains through "Doc's" position. As a result of his outstanding work substituting at guard, Johnny Hathaway will ~e expected to do big things next season. J ohnn1c won a minor letter. Gaining all-Southwestern Iowa honorable mention was one of the accomplishments of Jim Wa tson, veteran end. Jim graduates a two letter at~. A great end was lost to the team early in the season when Norman Leed suffered a broken collar bone. Norman closed his career with one letter. FIRST TEAM BASKETBALL Thirteen defeats in eighteen scheduled games, the sectional tournament won, and twice victors in the district tournament before losing to the strong Loga n five in the finals is the record compiled by the 1935-36 basketball team. After losing the opening game of the season to St. Francis, the team suffered a disastrous slump which cost them eight straight games before they broke into the winning column with an ove rwhelming victory at Glenwood 's expense . During th e next six weeks the team played up-and-down ball winning when " doped" to lose and vice versa. The two important games with our. West End rivals, however, ended in defeat. In tournament play, the Lynx came back strong to win the sectional with top heav y victories over Malvern, Sidney, and Oakland. Apparentl y headed for th e state tournament, the team continued its winning tactics in the district tournament, toppling Manning and Villisca in quick order before losing its hea rt breaking 23-20 decision to Logan.

His s t ea d y performances throughout the season earned him a position on the all-Southwest Iowa team. KENNETH WRIGHT-A remarkable ball-handler, "Cot" showed great possibilities until mid-season injuries put him on the bench. He will return next year and, barring m1uries, should fill the shoes vacated bv Quick. ' WARREN RADTKE-With two years of competition still ahead of him, this sophomore guard proved worthy in every game. Possessing the stamina, build, and other qualifications of a good guard, he should be a standout on the team his remaining two years. LEON SKELTON - Time and time aga in breaking up the opponents' defense made "Skelly" a main cog on defense. Playing a bruising, hard-driving game, Leon was in every play, and will return next year again to worry opponents. Bos SPELLMEYER-Playing his first year of varsity competition, Bob showed up well whenever he was sent into a game. His speed and ruggedness should be mam factors m making next year's team a winner. GLENN MARTIN-Another lad, who, although hampered by injuries, showed up to the opponents' disadvantage whenever inj ected into a fray. A junior, Glenn has one more year of competition and should be a thorn in the side of opposing forwards next season. BoYD WALKER - A junior, Boyd displays a natural aptitude for the game. This, coupled with his speed and willingness, should make Boyd a valuable man on the team his last year. DICK FREEMAN-Dick's the BILLY H ALPIN-With an unkind of player you like to canny eye for the basket and a watch. Never brilliant, but al- remarkable knack for slipping ways steady and dependable, past opposing guards, Billy was putting his whole heart and soul teamed with Quick to provide into the game. Dick was a the team's scoring punch. Alnightmare to opposing for. though Quick graduates, Halwards and eve ry basket made pin will return next season and past him was a hard earned gives promise of being one of goa l. the finest forwards in the sta te. Bos FuLLER-"The man behind the scenes," "Red" was well-fitted for his position of manager and performed his rewardless duties faithfu ll y and concientiously. N inely-eight SECOND TEAM In spite of the fact that the reserves were made up largely of sophomore boys, the team enjoyed a fairly successful season. Besides winning more than fifty per cent of the games, the team showed up well in the County tournament, losing only to Thomas Jefferson in a hard fought battle. They defeated T. J. later in a return game. Several prospective stars were discovered who will probably push the veterans for varsity berths next year. Allan, Soll azzo. McKenz ie, Norman, Harden, Perdew, Lawson.

FRESHMAN TEAM Enjoying the most successful season in several years, the Lynx "kittens" displayed a superior brand of basketball to maintain a .500 pe r cent basis during their regular season. The team reached its peak in the Southwestern Iowa tournament, winning two games before being halted in its victory march by the Thomas Jefferson "Yellowjackets", one of the finalists in the tournament. WRESTLING Wrestling reached new heights in popularity in the athletic program during the 1935-'36 season. The "grapplers," although mostly underclassmen, crowded the leaders in the Intercity, District and State tournaments. The team was host to the first district wrestling tournament ever held in Council Bluffs where they came through with flying colors to win second place and the right to place six men in the state tournament. They were strong contenders for the team championship of the intercity meet. In the State tournament the team made a valiant stand, but inexperience wrecked their chances for a showing.

The 1935 state champion two-mile relay team with three veterans back was again tops m the state. With three lettermen back, the sprint relays were strong contenders for the state and Missouri Valley titles. The hurdlers and high jumpers fast developed into championship form after having been hampered by lack of veteran material ar the beginning of the season . Weakness was evident in the pole vault and discus events, bur the javelin and shot put, with lettermen on the heaving end, were consistent point getters. ;.

One Hundred One 0)1P Hundrcrl Girls' Athletics BERNIECE FAURM MISS ABRAHAM LINCOLN Sportsmanship, character, leadership, athletic ability, and co-operation are the essential qualities a girl must possess in order to be chosen Miss Abraham Lincoln. It is an honor of the highest degree that can be bestowed upon a senior member of G.A.A. She is elected by secret ballot of the entire organization. Personifying all that is fine in girls' sports, as well as in possession of all qualities of sportsmanship, character, and leadership is Miss A. L. Berniece has assisted during her senior year with physical education classes, has shown keen kn owledge in the field of girls' sports, and has always exemplified enthusiasm and ambition of the highest type. She earned the greatest number of points, 2,000 in three years, and only 1,000 are required for sta te awards. She was captain of the all-school basketball team, sconng a g reat number of points, and participated in every sport. Two PLAYGROUND MEET Abraham Lincoln's tenth grade team was the outstanding entry 111 the Playground Meet this year. Placing high in every event entered, they were the victors. Individual honors rather than team honors were won in this meet. Maxine Neely and Rosella Berg placed first and second respectively in the city in "21". Rosella Berg and Lucille Hayes took individual honors in the free throw. The team was the best in the far throw, with Irene Anderson taking top honors. ,( ;:- ~;-=r ~;:;:;:;:~~~--='=:!'.:4~~!ilii~~?;;;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;~,:-:.~iiii<~~~g;;;;;;;;;;;::;;;=.;:;~;;;;;;:;;;;;;:=:;.;'.::iii!ll Pie rce, N eely, Chapman, And ~o n, Ch ri ~e , Winfie ld, Be rg, Buhrr11an, Hays , Het rick.

It has been preserved by a steadily increasing enthusiasm for girls' athletics. The G .A.A. is a comparatively new organization whose purpose 1s to promote both physical and mental health. A sense of clean competition is developed by the girls' point system. Besides basketball, baseball, volleyball, and track, the G .A.A. sponsors a n umber of hikes, breakfasts, and parties. During nine years of existence, the Girls' Athletic Association has excelled in every activity which it has undertaken. It is composed of the most capable girls. Eligibility consists of earning fifty points by being a member of some team or by participating after school.

These girls arouse interest throughout the school by sponsoring inter-society tournaments. Inter-society basketball, volleyball, baseball, and captain ball tournaments are held each year between the different literary societies. The winners are awarded the G. A. A. cup on honor day. For girls who do not choose to participate in these act1v1t1es the G . A. A. sponsors hikes, breakfasts, roller skating, horse back riding, and social parties throughout the year. In this way each girl has a chance to do the thing she likes best, and so participate in some outside activity. On" JI u ndrcd Four . .

It was first sponsored by the G . A. A., but it is now an independent organization. The membership is limited to one hundred girls. The initial dues are $2.00 a year. After a girl has reached the mark of an expert and is a senior, she becomes eligible for one of the two highest honors at the Military Ball. She may be Honorary Colonel, or Honorary Major. These girls are chosen for these positions by popular vote of the R.O.T.C. There arc also five company sponsors and a band sponsor chosen by popular vote of the boys. In order to be eligible for one of these positions, a girl must have received her fourth bar. Since these awards came at the end of the year, the girls work harder to gain t hese coveted positions.

She is selected because of being outstanding in leadership, scholarship, character, citizenship, and her participation in extra-curricular activities. The May Queen is announced at the annual May Fete. She is attended by her maidof-honor and twelve maids, all of whom are also chosen because of basic qualities. For the first time in the history of Abraham Lincoln high school, the annual May Fete was held on the new athletic field this year.

At that time there was a capacity of three-hundred pupils with three faculty members. The next site was the present one, as appears above. It's difference lies in the absence of thirteen rooms in the east side of the building . M eantime the enrollment has been doubled.

For four full years here we live in an atmosphere of the best in music and art. Greatly adding to our school's equipment for carrying out this ideal are the Carnegie Art and Music Teaching sets, including libraries of excellent books and records, and an unusual art exhibit. The Carnegie Foundation gifts have been obtained in the last two years by the efforts of Principal G. W. Kirn. Besides approximately 840 reproductions of a1·t in the library gift, and 650 records in the music set, mo1·e than 100 reproductions of paintings and statua1·y, friezes and medallions, grace our halls and classr·ooms. The aesthetic appeal of our school is our chief pride. I F ou r) '.Jllrbtration : ·~ J ' ECAUSE the cultural aspects of life are conr' . .' sciously placed foremost in Abraham Lincoln ' I ' High School, we dedicate the 1937 Crimson and Blue to the Fine Arts. The school administration of Council Bluffs has planned and worked to make its school buildings veritable centers of fine arts in themselves. We see this in our halls, beautified with excellent copies of old masterpieces; we see it in the extensive art research library and music recording library; we see it in the emphasis placed on music, art, dramatics, and literature in the curriculum. "Little by little we are fashioned into the image of all we have seen and heard, known and meditated," says Spalding. "If we learn to live with all that is fairest and purest and best, the love of it all will in the end become our very l .f " 1 e.

White dresses form a sharp contrast with dark suits, but the same look of determination is written on :i ll the faces o f the actors. We have completed our apprenticeship in stock and a re now ready for "big time ." After years spent in the shadow of the wings memorizing tedious lines, lea rning p urposeful movements and gestures, we take our places in the spotlight and present to you what we hope will be a play that will live in our memories forever.

For three years we have existed in the shadow of the trenches waiting for the "zero hour", for our chance to win our longhoped-for laurels. The chance, our senior yea r, is the culmination of our careful preparation. As juniors we have encountered many shell holes and struggled through the barbedwire of disappointments. However, there have been frequent " leaves of absence" when we could take time out just to enjoy being juniors-plays, dances, assemblies, and music. We have made many true friends, "buddies", who will carry on with us through our senior year.

Whether it is a football game in sub-zero weather, a basketball game with snow drifts two or three feet high outside, or when they lead the R.O.T .C. regiment down the street on those blistering hot parade and inspection days, the band is always on the job performing its duties faithfully. To obtain the skill which they exhibit, they must put in many hours of conscientious study. They work the latter half of sixth period, and many times after school and in the evenings. The band and orchestra alternate each year in going to the state and national contests. This year the band went to the state contest at Iowa City in the ea rly part of May to uphold its fine reputation gained through previous contests.

It provides music for the operetta, the literary society plays, various assemblies and numerous p rograms given throughout the year. It a lso takes a large p:i.rt in the series of Sunday vesper concerts along with the band and glee clubs, and finishes off the vear by assisting with the Commencement exercises given a t the city auditorium. Besides these services, the orchestra has given the pupils in Abraham Lincoln high school a deeper appreciation of music that will benefit them throughout their lives. This year is the orchestra 's turn to compete in the Nationa l High School Orchestra contest, and much is ex pected of them because they came out of the national contest held at Madison, Wisconsin, in 193 5, with flying colors.

When the president utters these words, the members of Le Cercle Francais settle down to the serious business of displaying their best French vocabulary. Programs which are carried on in French consist of French plays and games. French life and customs usually given at each meeting are an essential part of the club.

TO the company which is most representative of the aims and virtues of the Abraham Lincoln high school regiment goes the distinction of bea ring the colors.

Everything, from the coaches to a new football field, was included in the new deal sweep. To start things off, Principal G . W. Kirn finished several years' hard work when he saw the completion of one of the most completely equipped high school athletic fields in the Mid West. Mr. Kirn has been busy the past years getting grants from the government to finance the building of this field . The climax of it all came on Thanksgiving Day at the dedication of Kirn field. Helen Parmer was crowned Queen of Football on that occasion. The stadium has a seating capacity of 4,500 and the field has a fine, quarter mile track. Showers and locker rooms ate located underneath the bleachers. Next in line of change came the coaches, where the whole staff was revamped. Roy F. Lawson, former second team coach, took over the head duties in basketball and footbal l. Fee Chew, former freshmen mentor, retained the duties of head coach in wrestling, and also took the same position in track. Richard Cochran came here from Coin, Iowa, to assist in football and basketball. Director of athletics now is Virgil H. Miller, who is also holding the position for the first time this year.

Missouri Valley opened on the Kirn field, and each team found the going tough. With both teams doing their battling on the center of the field, the game ended in a scoreless tie. On the next week-end, Tech came over to play a game on the wind-swept field. After pushing over a first-half touchdown, the Lynx became over confident and let the Omaha team garner two touchdowns and a safety to carry a 15 to 6 victory back home with them. Next, A. L. encountered one of the toughest teams in the inter-city in South High. After having everything their own way in the first half, they found it tougher going in the second half, but wound up on the large end of a 20 to 0 score Returning home for their next game, the team won a 7 to 0 victory ove r a smaller Essex team. Then, on its second trip, A. L. traveled to Sioux City. This trip proved disastrous because East Hig h won the game, 20 to 0. Again entering the inter-city wars on the next week-end, our Hilltop team met Central. Although Abe Lincoln was beaten 16 to 6, plenty of thrills were experienced . N ext came the game that made the season a success. You guessed it, the one with T. J .! With vengeance in th eir hea rts for the seven long years in which A. L. had not been able to gain a victory, the Lynx entered this game. For three quarters it lookt>d as if the resu lt was going to be the same as in previous yea rs, but towa rds the end of this quarter Frank Friar caught a pass for a touchdown, and H erd kicked the extra point. T. J. ;ilso scored, but was unable to convert the extra point, and swt>et victory was Abraham Lincoln's. Finishing the season against the Iowa School for the D eaf, the Lynx had little trouble in downing that team 19 to 6. On Thanksgiving D ay, the Hilltop team pla yed a post-season game aga inst the pick of the best players in Southwest Iowa . At this time Ab~·aham Lincoln's new fi eld was dedicated, and the fact that the All-Stars defeated the Lynx 24 to 0 could not dim the glory of that occasion. (Ninety -one) A tr hough not a regular, Keith Austin could always be depended upon for a good game in the backfield. Playing his first year of varsity football, Clark Barritt gained the reputation of a smashing fullback. Bill Bell, a veteran tackle, finishes a brilliant career on the Hilltop team this year. Playing a flashy game at end, Chet Bowers finishes his school football career this yea r. A three-year man, Carlysle Brickey, finished the most outstanding of the three this year as fullback. S peed boy of th e Lynx, Jack Cone, dim:nutive guard, also sees the last of high school football this year. (Ninety-two) Fred Day, although he pbved on ly one yea r of fo ::i tball for A. L., showed plenty of fight at the center position . Frank Friar, senior, made a crreat end out of himself wh:n he caught the pass that won the T . ]. football game. Q ne of the scrappiest fighters on the team was Johnny Hathaway, Lynx watch charm guard, who graduates. Charles Herd was only one of the several underclassmen who made a great shov:ing for themselves in the backfield. Q ne of the really cough ends on the team was J oe Kmezich , who finishes his career in a blaze of g lory. Discovered this year was Milton J enkins, shifty negr::i backfield star, who will be back next year. Returning to bolster next year's squad will be "Rip" Mosher, another guard who was always in the thick of the fray. Helping a good deal to make this year's team a winner was Paul McKee, big center, who will return. Another of a long list of outstanding guards was Joe Paladino, who will come back for his third year. C aptain and one of the most outstanding players on the team was Louie Profeda, tackie and fullback. Utility man on the team was "Monk" Reynolds, who played either backfield or line and will be back. 0 ne of the peppiest members of the squad was "Russ" Seiffert, senior, who gave a good showing of himself at quarterback. M ost feared by opponents was Leon Skelton, the spectacular end, who finishes a brilliant athletic career this year. Rising from obscurity to a first-team position was Bob Spellmeyer, the senior quarterback. A !ways dependable as a utility lineman was "Pat" Stevens who also ends his high school football this year. M aking a "grand slam" at his first bid for football honors, Ray T ennant was a big part of A. L's backfield. A lways ready to play either end or backfield George Wiseman, a senior, came m handy in the pinches. Playing the role of manager was D on Harriman, who is commonly known to the squad as "Pest." H e was ablv assisted by N orman H erd who finished school at mid-semester.

If success means anyth:ng, then Coach Cochran has e~ tablished himself at Abraham Lincoln, because his team this year won 6 games, lost 1 and tied 1. Under the conditions which Coach Coch:an worked, his success was hard earned. With his best boys being elevated to the first team the coach did exceptionally well with the material at hand. 1Jf rrshman lJiootball I T URNING in the poorest record of the season, according to the won and lost column, is the freshman squad. Abraham Lincoln's only two wins were over the Iowa School for the Deaf squad, while Bloomer and Thomas Jefferson each defeated them twice. Much of the Baby Lynx failure to win a game can be laid to their size and lack of weight. However, Coach Chew had worked together a fairly decent squad by the end of the season.

Hindered by the fact that capable boys were constantly being elevated to the first squad, and other boys were being put down on the second team, the squad did very well. When all regular season games were over, the second team had an average of a little over the .500 mark. In the county tournament, which was held at Avoca, the team got off to a smashing start, but suffered defeat in its second game at the hands of Hancock. JJirrslpnan filasltrthall ALTHOUGH having little to w~rk with, Mr. Stout did much with the material ,at hand in freshman basketball. Makmg a rather shaky start, the Baby Lynx d1dn t do so well during the regular season, but made a grand finish on the home stretch. The win and lost column in the city play didn't show any brilliance on the part of the small Hilltoppers. When the team played in the county tournament, the members showed plenty of fight, and should be valuable additions to next year's second team. First row: Fazio, Schaff, Anderson, Dinovo, Zimmerman.

(Nine t y -five ) JOHN HATHAWAY FRANK FRIAR BILL BELL 1Buskeh?ai ~ 1 STARTING off with a bang when they won two games a t Sioux City, and ending rather abruptly when they lost the final game in the district meet were the beginning and ending of the Lynx basketeers. In the meantime they were a hot and cold club, not knowing from one game to the next whether or not they would be able to play bask etball. When they beat both Sioux City teams and then proceeded to lay it on S outh High, N ebraska state champs, they put out the challenge twice of being the unbeatable ball club. A midseason slump, caused by the flu epidemic, quickly disrupted this idea and A. L. took it on the chin six times. Our most ardent rivals, the T . ]. Yellowjackets, were the first to turn the trick when they beat us in a two-point thriller. When the sectional tournament opened, the Lynx revenged this defeat when they beat their West End rivals in the finals. In the district tourn:iment, Abraham Lincoln esablished itself as a favorite when it routed the classy Sac City outfit 51 to 21 . It also went on to win a second game in a victory over Manilla, but Rolfe disappointed a highly enthusiastic A. L. crowd when its team gained a one-point victory over the Lynx in the district finals. This squad, smce it was not only fast, but classy, and averaged nearly six feet in height, gave Abraham Lincoln a fine basketball team. Games Plaved A. L. Opts. Games Played A .L. Opts.

IDrurk 0 NE of the sports that gives the Lynx the most of its prestige is track. This vear's squad will have a great deal to live up to if it's going to duplicate the feats of last year's team. Last year's squad got off to an excellent start when it won the Thomas J efferson relays. One record set, was by the two-mile relay team, of which three boys return. Another excellent point-getter was the mile, which was run by Leon Skelton. 1llilrrfitltttg 0 NE sport that took a tremendous jump in popularity this vear was wrestling. At the first of the season, they looked unbeatable, but defeats by South, Tech and Central wrecked all chances for a championship. Most of the Lynx power was concentrated in the upper weights where most of our matches were won . In the inter-city wrestling tournament, which was held at Abraham Lincoln, Kemplin and Profeda carried off top honors in the 155 and 165 pound weights, respectively, while Kmezich was runner up in the heavyweight position.

H anse n. ~olf GOLF is another mmor sport that takes its place among Abraham Lincoln's sports. Although it did not have as disastrous a season as the tennis team had, the golf team's season last year was not one that wou ld bring any championships to the school. Things seem a great deal brighter to the Lynx "linksters" this spring because of the return of five members of last year's squad. Mr. Stout was the new coach of the golf team, taking the place of Mr. Lawson, who was himself too busy to take charge of this team this year. ffirttttis RACKETS to the right of them, rackets to the left of them volleyed and served. No, this isn't Tennyson's immortal "Charge of the Light Brigade." It's only the way tennis balls seemed to be coming at last year's tennis team, which wasn't able to win one match. Much of Abraham Lincoln's failure in tennis can be laid to its inadequate playing facilities. Things looked much brighter this year with the injection of new blood into a team that last year didn't seem to be able to get the winning spirit. Fro nt ruw : Simon, Green, Pohl , Krasne.

Athletic ability, leadership, cooperation, interest, and high physical education grades-these are the qualifications she must possess. Delores Jones was chosen Miss A. L. of 1937 by the girls who know her best-the members of the G.A.A. She is the tenth girl to obtain this coveted honor. Having obtained the highest award given by the school-a state pin, which requires 1000 points-in her junior year, Delores now has more than 1750 points to her credit. Her favorite organized sport is basketball, and she has earned a large part of her points in this game. Her favorite outside sport is skating. She earned many of her points by acting as leader, not only in classes but outside as well. Not only has she participated actively in practically every sport, but she has held the captaincy position on many teams. She has also held the offices of president and vicepresident of the G.A.A.

The secret ambition of almost every girl is to be chosen an honorary officer by the R.O.T.C. boys and to be formally presented at the Military Ball. Any senior girl who has reached the mark of an expert is eligible to be chosen Honorary Colonel, Honorary Lieutenant Colonel, Honorary M ajor, or Honorary Major Adjutant. Because of the large number of girls desiring membership, a limit of one hundred members was set. This quota is always filled. Organized in 1922, it is one of the oldest organizations. During the first years of its existence it was under the sponsorship of the Girls' Athletic Association, but now it is an entirely independent organization.

Shadows of television presage a marvelous future for us. Just now visions of fear, suspicion, anxiety, flash off and on our figurative screen. Unemployment faces us on every side. A more tragic outlook for graduates would be hard to find. Healthy minds bridge this transition period in which we meet the world. Television is a shadow foretelling the miracles and wonders of the next era. Our generation will fall hefr to this wealth of \voncler ! Our future is beckoning. The 1938 Crimson and Blue serves as a "screenful" of local achievements, and unlike the other visions, it will persist after we have reached our quota of tomorrows. TH~ P a gp S ix DEDICATION H ERE'S to the future! Tomorrow, today will become yesterday, a part of the past, but tomorrows will come forever. In the future gleam the visions we live by; therefore we dedicate this year-book to that powerful, beckoning loadstone-the future. All that we work for, the quality of what we do, of character itself is shown up by this compelling magnet. This record of school life has been the prime hope of every senior class-ours, too. It marks the "30" of our high school career; but we still have our future and our hope. CONTENTS I. Administration - - - - - - 11 II. Classes - - - - - - - - - - 16 III. Music and Speech Arts 45 IV.

KIRN "For three years you have been a part of the Abraham Lincoln High School. The halls have rung with your merry laughter. You have sought knowledge and understandin!?: in the class rooms. Your lives have been enriched with beautiful friendships of pupils and teachers. You have vied with each other and with pupils of other schools in athletics, forensics, dramatics, music, art, journalism, commercial subjects and other activities as vou have sought excellence in intellectual achi~vemenc and in personal development. You have breathed che spirit of the school. You have been the school. P age Twelve "Now as you are graduating you are presenting this Annual as the record of your school life, the tangible evidence of your ambitions, your appreciations and your achievements. It is my sincere wish for you that this book will always recall in golden memory this matchless period in your lives, that it will record for you in type and picture your quest of the good, the true and the beautiful, chat through it you will cherish all your lives the high idealism chat your high school days have stressed and that you may relive whenever you read it, the happy days of your high school course." G. W. KmN. "My congratulations and best wishes to every member of the senior class of the Abraham Lincoln High School for the success you h:ive attained in fulfilling all ch e requirements for graduation. You have taken advantage of the educational opportunities afforded in chis community and have overcome the obstacles met in attaining this first milestone along life's pathway. We share your happiness in reaching chis goal. "We look with you into the future and see on every hand opportunities for those who are willing to prepare themselves and who are eager to be of service to humanity in this troubled world. Go forth with determination that will not be denied. Formulate for yourself some philosophy of living and a creed chat will carry you through any crisis. May I suggest the one given to the world by Harold Walters: I ivould be tru e for there are those ivho trust me, I ivould be pure for there are those ivho care; I ivould be strong for there is much to rnf fer, I ivould be brave for there is much to dare; I ivould be friend to all, the foe, the friendless; I ivould be giving and forget the gift; I JVould be humble for I knoiv my iveakness; I ivuidd look 11p and laugh and love and lift.

By taking advantage of all the character moulding processes offered, we have become changed in attitude and outlook. It took a few years to accomplish the change, but now that we have within our reach a basic foundation for knowlt>dge and formulae for an honest, intelligent way of living, we're willing to make our debut. Similar paths of service open before each of us as a result of cart>ful high school training. Instructors have guided us through our thicker days of that four-year pulland here we are! We have tried to make ourselves a distinct part of the school. We have completed our work now, but some day in the future, you and I will look back wistfully to these rip-roaring days when all things were not only possible, but probable. Our time has come! N ow we, too, will take glad steps to the strains of "Once More, Dear Home." Honors have been shared, as well as scholastic achievements and activities. We are thankfu l to have been a part of all this. DORIS ADAMS - - - - - - - - College Prep Clio; y irl Reser ves ; Fre nch Club; Orchestra; Echoes' Shuf.

Three years we've been waiting for this chance to win long-hoped-for honors. As juniors we've encountered innumerable obstacles and struggled along with our senior goa l in view. Frequently we take time out to enj oy our present status. We attend plays as well as put on the mystery play of the vear. Assemblies break the monotony, too . . This year we've made countless friends, and they will carry us through our senior year. We, th e junior class, have proved ourselves outstanding in countless school activities. A junior won the dramatic division of th e declamatory contest. Six of the membe rs of the teams in the final debates were P age T hirly-fo ur juniors. Operetta leads were carried by juniors. In our midst are all the school electricians who can make or break every play that A. L. puts on. We aren't big-shots yet, but we are the biggest class of juniors this school has had for some time. Almost 400 of us are learning the fundamentals so that we can shine next year. It has taken us a year or so to get adjusted; now we are beginning to make ourselves known. The majority of the year's plays have had junior leads. Wrestling and track honors have been. litera lly scooped up by these seniors-in-thebud. Basketball has ridden on. the crest of the wave due to the juniors' staunch support. Front row: Buesing, Bruington, Brewick, Burnstein, Bunton, L.

Juniors Once again we stand on the crossroad of modern thoug ht. Some say we a re too busy acquiring technical k nowledge to waste our time on unimportant ideas. They contend that we will learn to get along without teamwork and co-operation, that ou r superior training and knowledge will enable us to rise above human failings.

ORCHESTRA Instrumental Music Directors: Mr. Seidl, Mr. Nowak PEALING trumpets, shrill high notes of clarinets, blare of the trombones, all blend together in a snappy military march, announcing that the band is doing its part to help the half time pass quickly for football fans. Playing in the stands before the game and marching, with intricate maneuvers, at the half, the band was present at every home game and at the Thomas Jefferson game on Armistice Day. Fair weather or foul, they did their best. At the end of the football season the band turned to basketball l!ames and did its bit to help the Lynx to ~ictory by supplying school spirit. A little noisy, perhaps, in the confined quarters of the gym, but band members were always ready with the P age F o rty -s ix school song or to help out with a yell. Playing for football and basketball games, however, was not the only activity of the band. A series of three Vesper concerts, in which both the band and the orchestra took part, were held on November 22, January 16, and February 20. These concerts, intended to raise money to send the band and orchestra to the music contests in the spring, were held on Sunday afternoons in the gym. During the Christmas season, the orchestra presented a Yuletide program on December 20 for patrons of the school, and on December 23, for the students. In this manner the orchestra helped the school to ce lebrate Christmas. And at every play, at the operetta, at the road show, the music between acts and during the p:rformance was furnished by a small group of band and orchestra members. To increase the musical reputation of Abraham Lincoln, two trips were made to Omaha this year. In the fall, the band went to the Creighton homecoming and marched in the parade and at the game. On l\1arch 6, the orchestra played a concert at the Joslyn Memorial and received many fav orable comments on its ability. On March 14, the orchestra was highly honored by being the first high school musical organization to ever play with the famous pianist, Winifred Christie, who played on her double keyboard piano. The band also played a large part in the annual R. 0. T. C. inspection. At every parade they were at the head of the line of marchers from A. L. The music at the May Fete was furnished by the band, wh ich spent almost as much time at practice as any group in the fete. The Regional Music contest which has taken the place of the national contest, was held in Omaha on May 12, 13, and 14. The A. L. band and orchestra, because of superior ratings won last year, went to this contest without going to the state contest at Iowa City. With all of these acuvmes during the year, it can easily be seen that the band is one of the most important service groups in the school and also one of the hardest working.

Howard M cllrath has led our debaters through another outstanding year of superior work. The question for the school year 1937-'38 was "Resolved: That the Several States Should Adopt a Unicameral System of Legislation." Opening the debate season at Abraham Lincoln was the literary society debate tournament, beginning with the tryouts on O ctober 19 and 21. At the literary society debate banquet on O ctober 29, Margery Gretzer launched her brilliant debate career by winning the after dinner speaking contest, using "Doodling" as the subject of her speech. T he tournament ended on D ecember 9 with the lonians defea tin!! the Clios in the final round. On this occ";;sion the varsity squad fo r this year was announced. Abraham Lincoln also triumphed at the Missouri Valley debate banquet when Billy Hansen, speaking on "State Legislators," won the after dinner speaking contest. For the second consecutive year Abraham Lincoln was the champion of the Girls' Division of the Missouri Valley League debates. At the Midland Debate T ournament on January 27, 28, and 29, our dehaters were in the qua rter finals, while at the southwestern Iowa d ivision of the Iowa High School Forensic League, held at First place winners: Extempo-Zurmuehlcn.

The first week of March found our debaters at the McCahill tournament at Drake where they competed with 36 teams representing six states, and we were one of the four teams to reach the semi-finals. Ending the debate season for this year was. the state tournament at Iowa City on Apnl 23. Our eligibility for this tournament was secured through our outstanding work in the Southwestern Iowa District Contest. Abraham Lincoln was also represented at the State tournament in the extemporaneous speaking division by John Zurmuehlen who won first 111 our school and second 111 the district. Robert Gustafson was our representative in the original oratory division of the district contest with his original oration, "Fortress of Progress." Winners of the annual declamtory contest, held on January 20, were Ben Kuder in the oratorical division, speaking on "The Supreme Menace"; in the dramatic division, Kathleen H ennessy, reading "The Hero"; and Frances Fitzgibbon, giving the selection "The School Program,'' in the humorous division.

And, as an old annual puts it, it was issued "fortnightly." Although facts are profuse telling of its success, few sources seem inclined to tell us why it failed. Nevertheless, the Hill-Top Delver went out, and the High School Echoes came in, with its first publication on December 17, 1901. The Nonpareil mentioned it as follows: "The first edition of the High School Echoes, the latest venture of the high school students in the realms of journalism, will appear today from the press of the Nonpareil. The paper consists of twelve pages, seven by eleven inches, and is as neat typographicall y as its contents are interesting." They attempted to print the full twelve pages twice a month, but the little matter of financial difficulty arose, and the paper hastily changed to a monthly publication. Various changes have swept through our paper to make it the publication it is today. As if to compensate for the fewer number of papers, the Echoes once enlarged to a sixteenpage monthly. So the paper went merrily on its way. The World War came and went. But waitthought the editors-if the United States can win a war, surely we can start a campaign. An eight-page bi-weekly paper was promptly published. Alternate staffs worked on the paper. By 1921, the Echoes was issued every Thursday. The present thriving 4-page, 7-column Echoes reaches more than two-thousand people. Compare that with the two-hundred subscribers of the Hill-Top Delver! But you should have seen the first of the Crimson and Blue! No, it wasn't a grand affair, but rather a little pamphlet. It was issued as Volume I in 1897. Not important, but quite interesting, is the fact that Lucius Pryor was the business manager of this first annual. And the contents were so different from those we have now. First of all, came about six pages of advertisements. Certainly, the school's patrons received ample compensation for advertising in the senior annual. Then came some school yells. Oh, they were peaches. Next, the "gray matter material" about class history, class prophecy, history of cadets, and history of athletics came. Upon counting the pictures, we find the huge number of -six. And that includes the pictures of the school administration, too. Not many years ago, the pictures had to be taken out of doors. Just as sure as pictures were scheduled for a Wednesday, the "ground hog just wouldn't see his shadow." Or it might be a cold day with the wind blowing briskly at one's hair. How nice it is now to walk peacefully into the auditorium for pictures, where weather is ignored. Each year, the annual chooses a theme. In 1918, the class motto was "over the top," when the annual worked out the World War theme. From war to television-what can tomorrow foretell? Yes, Father Time grows older, but Abraham Lincoln publicaitons, though older with experience, grow ever youthful with their pep. Page Fifty-e ig ht R. 0. T .C.

P a:,:e S ixly Reserve Officers' Training Corps A NOTHER year-another regiment. An annual ball, followed by an annual inspection. But were these the only activities in which our regiment of Junior R.O.T.C. cadets participated? If one could have accompanied us during our periods of drill, and if he could have realized our accomplishments, he would not think so. It was October. Drill began with a formal announcement. Approximately 500 boys enrolled. Many were "greenhorns." Tests were given to the senior cadets, covering basic theoretical and practical material. Those who survived were promoted to the rank of second lieutenant. As a result, a few newly-promoted officers experienced the thrill of wearing boots and commanding the companies at the first parade. Although the day was warm and the rifles became heavy, we were all inspired to do our best. Yes, we were a ll out of step, and our rifles were slightly crooked, but we were nevertheless proud of our regiment. Soon after, the Cadet Officers' Club was organized. It was a new organization, but its pu rpose was old: we were determined to bring this year's regiment to a brilliant climax-the award of an honor rating at the Annual Federal Inspection. The winter followed-the time of year that discourages the eager personalities, when we must remain inside, discontinue close-order drill until better weather returns, and in the meantime listen to lectures. We covered a lot of material, however, and we knew it would be essential later. With the coming of spring, enthusiasm mounted. The R.O.T.C. Manual became the constant companion of the officers. The junior cadets were striving for the three stripes which designate a sergeant. The rifle range became popular with the girls. Why was such an impetus in activity shown? Merely because spring had come? No, March 19, the date of the annual Military Ball, was nearing. It was considered the "Ides of March" for many of us, for the last promotions were to be announced then . Honorary officers were to be presented, too. Finally the day arrived. Rumors concerning the identity of the top officers prevailed. Then on the evening of March 19 came the denouement. The ball will be remembered as one of the greatest ever held at school. The cadet and honorary officers were announced, from the lowest to highest ranks. Spectators saw members of the regular army there, the national guard, officers of the surrounding R.O.T.C. regiments, our parents and teachers. Here-in this large congregation-was illustrated the accomplished air of the senior cadet, who rea lized it was his last promotion; the hope of the junior cadet, who was next in line of command; and the awe of the sophomore cadet, as yet inexperienced. All in all, it was an impressive, inspiring, and colorful display of school military life. After such excitement came the pe riod of calm. All efforts were now concentrated upon the inspection. Individual companies we re assigned definite subjects for study, upon which the inspector would question them. Again and again regimental review was practiced. M ay 12 came as March 19 had comepreceded by much impatient wamng. The ceremony passed quick ly, almost too quickly fo r us. The pa rade to the field, the review, the exhibitions, the lecture period. Then we we re dismissed. We had done our best. All that remained was the hope fo r an honor rating. And so fo llowed Memorial D ay-the senior's " last parade." Another yea r-and another regiment had completed its seemingly short life .

Vice-President S ecretary T reasurer James Sprigg Eleanor White John Zurmuehlen Helena Briggs Sponsors: Miss Pyle, Mr. Blank, Miss Boesche THE N a tional H onor Society represents the highest academic honor that a student can attain. It represents the highest division of the student body. Since the establishment of the National Honor Society in 1929 under the auspices of the Phi Beta Kappa, a national honorary fraterity, it has grown to be one of the leading national societies for those seeking distinction in the fields of scholarship, !raderships, and, character. Of the entire class, only fifteen per cent are eligible. Five per cent of the members may be chosen in their junior year and ten percent may be chosen in the twelve one grade. The new members are not selected by the old members, but by a secret com - mittee composed of members of the faculty selected by the principal. This year the society sponsored the annual Road Show. The advertising and the sale of tickets were ably managed by the members. Whenever the society has been ca lled upon to do service for the school, its members have always responded cheerfull v and willingly so as to inspire those with whom they worked to a greater appreciation of what the honor student can attain.

More than 20,000 journalists-in-thebud have a membership in Quill and Scroll as a result of their outstanding achievement in the scholastic writing field. Twelve years ago, a g roup of High School teachers met and organized this honorary society. It has done much to foster creative talent. Candidates must be in the upper third of their class scholastically and must have done superior work of some sort in jou rnalism.

Nor satisfied with daily work in class a lone, the commercial students have ventured out of the realm of daily assignments to form a Commercial Club to further their social contacts, as well as to acquaint themselves with modern business methods. Y cs, the commercial students seem set on success. Business men are called up for talks on business conditions, and machine demonstrations are frequent. Current knowledge of new machinery is necessary to our soon-to-be young business debutantes. But such hard work that goes into it! It's the typing room. About the time spring fever was getting too contagious for any studying comfort, remember? And you simply had to get outside, didn't you? But for commercial contestants-ah, no! They patiently wa lked into classrooms at 3:20 to practice. For th ere's technique to typewritmg. The touch and rhythm are both very important. And, of course, there's shorthand. Perhaps you've called it penscratching. On second thought, it might be picture drawing. But seriously, just try to think of taking 60-80-100-120-140 words a minute by hand. Do they s~ Palmer method? \'</ell, it would be nice, but think for yourself. Tense moments they are as you take pen in hand and the dictator gets out her little time watch. It's now or never. Each word is read but once. Pens are gripped tightly in clammy fists. Dictation goes relentlessly on .. . But for our contestants, it's a simple matter. Agile pens in the fingers of competent contestants scoot across the page. It was practice that made competency. How many times has a sign gone up in the window "keep ou t, shorthand dictation." For each June, our commercial seniors sally forth into the business world, knowing that bus:.ness is alwa ys open to efficient, competent workers.

With forma l initiation of its new members, the Spanish Club swung rapid ly into action with an ex tensive program consisting of lectures given by Father Cobb, Mr. Chew, and Miss Hannigan. A talk on Mexico accompanied by colored motion pictures was given by Mr. Leo Unger at a dinner held at the Y. M. C. A. As meetings are held every two weeks and each member takes an active part in the functioning of the club, an atmosphere of friendliness prevails throughout the group. A student to be eligible for membership must have had at least one semester of Spanish or be taking it at the time of entermg the club.

Its aim is to live up to the motto, "To face life squarely; to find and give the best." The Abraham Lincoln chapter renders many services to the school and to the citizens of the city. A reception tea is given for new girls of the school in the fall; each member contributes the money earned in one day of work to a service fund of the school; contributions are received from all students of the school during the month of November, Good Will Month, sponsored by all the service clubs; a Christmas party for all underprivileged children of the city is given; and joining the other service clubs, the Girl Reserves helps in preparing an Easter program. This year some of the members were able to attend Girl Reserves' conferences both in Omaha and Shenandoah. The inspiration received at these conferences was delivered to the entire club, and the suggestions made will enable them to carry on this superior type of work next year. Forming a junior organization to the Girl Reserves is the Reservette Club. Although this is not a national organization, it serves as a stepping stone for the girls who wish to take part in the nation-wide activities of the senior organization. The Creche children provide an opportunity for service for the Reservettes. The girls entertain them at an annual Christmas party. In the spring semester the Reservettes give the reception for the new girls. They take part in the Easter program, and send their delegates to the Girl H.eserves Area conferences. The two Hi-Y groups of Abraham Lincoln strive "To create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character." This yea r their accomplishments consisted of participation in Good Will Month, the sale of football pennants, tin footballs, and porn-porns-all of which formed their contribution to the service fund for the needy of our school. They join with the other service clubs to present the Easter program. The organizations carry on their tradition of attending church in a body every Sunday.

It was a local organization until 1933; at that time it became a member of the state system. Abraham Lincoln was the second school to join, due to the f act that the sponsor, fVIiss l\!Iary Nix, served on the committee for the organization of the state point system. By sponsoring the H alloween party and the Valentine party, the G.A.A . raises money to sponsor activities. It also sponsors the Girls' Kid party and the sale of candy at the basketball games. The home room volleyball tournament, literary society tournament, and games with Thomas J efferson and Bloomer Junior high school for the promotion of girls' athletics are under the direction of the G.A.A. T o promote posture, the G .A.A. sponsored the postu re campaign. Girls in gym classes with good posture were given red buttons. If they kept these buttons for a p~r od of six weeks without losing them through poor posture, they were awarded a blue button. M embership in the G.A.A. is limited to seventy-five girls. Any girl may become a member by paying $.75 dues. T o stay a member one must. earn at least one hundred points a semester. Miss Abraham Lincoln T 0 every senior member of the I I G irls' Athletic association the most coveted title is tint of Miss Abraham Lincoln, for she is the most representative girl in girls' athletics. M is' A. L. in A ction Althea W infield was awarded this h ::morary title for her excellent posture, sincere cooperation, outstanding leaderip in athletics, her good sportsmanship ;:!nd interest in physical education and ;ithletics. She was elected by popula r vote of the Girls' Athletic association. T o her credit she has a total of 1141 points, and is eli3ible for her state pin. Her favorite game is basketball, and she has earned many of her points by being captain of basketball teams. Althea is fond of a ll outside socia l act1v1tes. e hc:ided her organization, as president this last semester. rage EiJ.!'hty-sevcn Irene Anderson Ruth Chapman Norma Coan Doroth y Durbin Barbara Moore Maxine Neely Pat Stageman Althea \Vinfil'ld Pauline W oods State Pins BY participation in various a ct1vmes, members of the Girls' Athletic association earn points to qualify for awards. Any girl attaining 1000 points is entitled to a state pin. T hese points are earned by participation rather than ability. For every hour of participation in either organized activities at school or unorganized activities outside of school, four points are earned. It usually takes four years to earn the 1000 points, but because so many girls have attained this number in three years, a sprcial award of a chenille letter for 1500 points is given. This year, Pauline Woods has earned 2500 points. This is the best record atta ined by any girl in Abraham Lincoln. In 1934, Nina Korgan won the first sta te pin ro be presented in Abraham Lincoln. Before this time the Girls' Athletic association of Abraham Lincoln was not a member of the state organization. Letters and Monograms In order to get the first G .A.A. award of a monogram, a goal of 250 points must be attained. The second award offe red for 500 points is a school letter. These awards are given on H onor Day. Front row: Shields, Underwood, W ebster, Bacon. Second row: Durhin, Winfield, Chapman , W oods, Coan, Reid, Stageman, Neely, Moore.

ACTIVITl~S BASEBALL, stunts, volleyball, ping pong, dancing, track, basketball, badminton, concessions-all of these are a part of the program of the G. A. A. The facilities that are available make it possible for the girls to participate in the sport that they like, all of which aims toward the ideals of sportsmanship and the building of healthy bodies. Members also receive points by participation in any of these activities. In the way of unorganized activities they have social gatherings at the homes of members and spend the evenings roller skating and bicycling.

FURNISHING the background of many years' experience, the athletic coaches of Abraham Lincoln have brought us our first real taste of cons;stc:ir success. The football and wrestling teams emerged with encouraging records and the basketball team reached even greater heights, winning the Missouri Valley Conference championship and going to the State basketball tournament. This is the first tim: th2t Abraham Lincoln has gone to the "State" in several BOYS' ATl-IL~TICS I I years. Every athletic event was efficiently managed by the Director of Athletics, Mr. Miller. The Cheer Leaders, too, helped in bringing the students closer to the game and giving the team that "fighting spirit" that leads the Lynx on to victory. At every game and pep assembly, these cheer generators were always on the job, efficiently handling the organized rooting. Pi nkston, Ogan, Eakin, elson, Leosis, Kemplin, Hudson.

WR l: STLI NG ~VER since 1938, when wrestling was first introduced at Abraham Lincoln, the squad has boasted of at least one of the Knight brothers. This year Bob Knight, a freshman and the youngest of these brothers, not only made the first team, but was Page N ine ty -fo ur the only Lynx wrestler to qualify for the State tournament. The season proved to be a reasonably successful one for the Lynx grapplers, as they took second place in the Intercity and tied for third place with Gilmore City in rh c District tournament. The 1938 season inaugurated the first annual Inter-company wrestling tourname'.lt. After th ree days of elimination, Company F came out on top with 27 points, fo llowed closel y by Companies E and B with 25 and 23 points, respectively. The following boys were individual winne:s in their respective weights: Hunter, Company E, in the 85-pound weight; Arch, Company E, in the 95; Saunders, Company F, in the 105 ; Higgins, Company G, in the 115 ; \'</.Arch, Company E, in the 125; Shugart, Company C, in the 135; ChrisDist:rict Resull:s The A.

Page N inety-six FIRST TF:.AM SECOND TEAM FRESHMAN TEAM FOOTBALL S~ASON THE Abraham Lincoln high school football team opened the 1937 season with a 6-6 tie at Missouri Valley, September 17. Alvin Kemplin, late in the second quarter, drove over for the Lynx' only touchdown. In the first home game of the season, September 24, the Lynx met Logan High and battled to a 6-6 tie. An opening quarter march of 65 yards netted 6 points for the Lynx. Albert G allo scored the touchdown. Having neither won nor lost their first two games of the year the Lynx were victorious over Glenwood by the unusal score of 11-7, October 14. A safety, a dropkick by Herd, and a pass from Herd to Pinkston accounted for the eleven A. L. points. On October 9, at Lincoln, N ebraska, the Abraham Lincoln football team met defeat on a field of mud, by a score of 20-0. Sauer of Lincoln was the outstanding player of t he game. Sioux City's East High football team gained a 27-0 victory over the disabled Abraham Lincoln football team on Kirn Field, October 22. Long passes accounted for the Black Raiders offense. Outplaying Omaha Central, but losing, October 29, the Lynx won a moral victory by keeping the Central backfield at bay durin~ the entire contest. An intercepted pass and a 35-yard runback gave Central a 6-0 victory. The Lynxmen met and lost to the deceptive Mustangs at Shenandoah on November 3, by a score of 13-0. This win gave Shenandoah eighteen straight victories. The Thomas Jefferson football field was the scene of a thrilling, hard fought contest between Lynx and the Yellowjackets on Armistice Day. Abraham Lincoln led 12 to 9 at the end of the third period, but a 70 yard march in the closing minutes gave Thomas Jefferson a 15-12 victory. Passes from Albert G::dlo to Warren Radtke netted two touchdowns for A. L. Scoring almost at will, the Abraham Lincoln football team defeated the Iowa School for the Deaf 25 to 0, N ovember 19, on a snow-covered field. The feature of the game was Charles H erd's 85-yard return of the opening kickoff. Both H erd and Tennant scored twice for A. L. Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln met for the second time of the year on Kirn Field, Thanksgiving Day afternoon. The Yellowjackets held the Lynx to a 6-6 tie; however, A. L. led in first downs 12-2. Jack Bigley made the A. L. touchdown. Paiic N inet y-seven Front row: Shaw, Christoffersen, Friar, Spry, H erd, T ennant, Gall o, Jenks.

For the second straight year the Lynx defeated the Nebraska State champions. Last year A. L. defeated South twice, and this season Lincoln fell victim likewise. The Lynxmen won the Missouri Valley conference, placed third in the Intercity, won the sectional and district tournaments, but were eliminated by Franklin of Cedar Rapids in the State tournament at Des Moines. Warren Radtke was placed on the first All-State team, first All-Southwest Iowa team, and on the first All-Intercity team. Boots Gallo was placed on the first All-Southwest Iowa team and received honorable mention on the Intercity squad. Ray Tennant also received honorable mention on the Intercity team. Each member of the A. L. squad had his spectacular game. Ray Tennant made 16 points against Atlantic; Warren Radtke accounted for 17 in the second Lincoln game; Earl Rinehart scored 16 against St. Francis; Cot Wright made 13 points at Creston; and Albert Gallo scored 20 points in the finale with Central.

The future of democracy and of the common school are inseparable. Let them go forward together. What the school is today, democ - racy will be tomorrow.-Joy Elmer Morgan. : : P age 4 .. F 0 R E w 0 R D It is our hope that this book will recall to all of us memories of four of the happiest years of our lives, for high school signifies unforgettable fun as well as learning. The friends we make and the happy experiences we have during our high school days will never be forgotten . Sometimes in later life persons regret that they cannot live over again the "carefree days of youth ." Through this book, many of us con live over again these joyous days spent at Abraham Lincoln. : : P age 5 .. If democracy is worth while, its tenets must not only be taught, but stressed, in order that the responsibility of the individual to the democratic way of life may be recognized.- Dr. George M. W iley. : : Page ix . . DEDICATION Without Democracy, our country would not be the free and progressive notion it is today. Without Democracy, we would not learn the true value of government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Without Democracy in education, there would not be the individual development and the feeling of personal achievement that now prevail. In a period of unsettled ideologies among notions of the world, we believe that Democracy is sti 11 the best form of government for us. We therefore dedicate our book and rededicate our lives to that great institution of freedom and fair livingDEMOCRACY. : : P age 7 .. ·CONTENTS I. Faculty . 9 11. Classes - l 5 111.

KIRN Principal Abraham Lincoln High School No just estimate can be made of Principal Kim's educational program that does not take into account his whole educational philosophy. Iii His program is spread upon a wide canvass; his philosophy of education is highly selective; his ideology is democratic. He senses the difference between a text book education and basic culture. Consequently, he strives for a program that releases the mind of the student to the future without any severance from the best of the past. The net result is an understanding of the pressent. 1J Principal Kirn is one of the most understanding high school educators in the Middle West. The imprint of his broad educational pattern is upon most of the graduates of the Abraham Lincoln High School. Their four years '7 in an atmosphere of democratic ideals, of high ethical standards, of the best in the fine arts, and of' character emphasis, in addition to thorough educa- 'tional instruction, send them forth well braced against the false and the superficial. JI J. A. TRUE Superintendent Council Bluffs Schools - A Citizen of Council Bluffs. The success of the school system depends largely on the attitude and ability of the head of the schools. Iii Superintendent True has guided the destiny of our school system through a trying time without injury to the standards established during good times. His attitude in the employment of n ly the best instructors and a careful program of instruction has co-ordina ed the work jn the schools of the district. Through the several years he has been with us, he has tirelessly endeavored to improve our schools, both as to curriculum and the physical condition of the plant. -A Former Member of the Boord of Education. : : Page 10 : : DAISY B.

JI Senior Class of 1939 OFFICERS Preside nt Vice -President Secretary Trea surer Sergeant-at-Arms Dick Payne Roland McGee Helen Fisher Jack Stephens Glen Mathis Sponsors: Miss Hanigan, Mr. Johnson "Where do we go from here?" is the question of the day. Some of us are gathering up our courage, and our typing and shorthand credentials, with an eye on the business world. Others are flipping the pages of college bulletins, frantically searching for a school to suit their needs and desires. Then, of course, there are a few of us exploring the pages of home planning mag - azines, as well as gazing speculatively into furniture store windows. Meanwhil e the business world, colleges, and society are giving us, the 1939 crop of grad- . uates, the "once-over." We realize that a great deal depends upon us in the future development of the world of which we are to become a part. A country founded upon democratic principles, such as oy rs, finds its security in the development of the yo!J!h of today m d the opportunities offered to them as the basis of its future national life . And so we, the "embryo citizens" of tomorrow, willingly accept the challenge that a world of confused conditions opens to us. : : P age 16 : : ROBERT ADKINS- Commercial- Freshman Volleyba ll , Footba ll .

The night of June 9 arrives. Anxious parents tremble as nervously as the graduates- to-be. At last th~ procession marches down the aisle of the audrtorium, singing with full voices, "Once more, dear home-." Girls in white formals seem to float toward the stage, carrying bouque ts of red roses. Then come the boys in dark suits, seeming to rise to manhood in a night. The picture is perfect. An hour or so, and-it's all over. All over except indelible memdries. : : Page 34 : : Miss Broadfoot, Gretze r, Crowl, Holmes, Hunte r, Mr. Lee.

One more quarter to go and our game is over! At the half we were just beginning to understand what the score was, and now we ore de finitely on the right track. Our goal? A happy, successful senior year! Our junior year, as we look it over, hos been one of accomplishment and joy. We hove been well represented in every event. The leads in the annual operetta were _ably carried by juniors. Our junior ploy, " Mystery at Greenfingers," was a rousing success. The musical activities for the year hove been represented largely by juniors. Two of us won first places in the declamatory contest this year. The success of our bosketbol I season was encouraged along by the prowess of certain juniors. We could go on supplying proofs of our abilities. However we're not by any means the "big-shots" yet. We're just beginning I Circumstances too hove been right slick for us this year. We hove enjoyed many fine assemblies, thanks to Principal Kirn . The ploys couldn't have been more enj oyabl e, and the military boll was a thrill! Only, when we are "presidents" , we'll hove more tea dances! In all this fun of our junior year, we've mode new and deepe r friendships, preparing for a happy senior year. We hove lightly and gail y soiled through this yea r, but now we must prepa re to shoulder the responsibi I ities handed down to us. We ore now seniors! : : Page 35 : : Juniors Front row: D.;;n Bee z ley, Adrian Bra wn, Do ra thy Cain, Elinor Bamfo rd, Elo ise Bobb itt, Be ve rly And e rson, Billie Ann Caywood, Ke nne th Arch, Mi ld re d Be n n e tt, Ca the rine A d ams, He len Bahr, Oda A d e rs, Sa rah Adkins.

OUR ALMA MATER-PAST AND PRESENT When the wave of progress in education swept westward and reached Counci I Bluffs in 1 868, when our forefathers heard of high schools being established in 60 other cities, they decided that the school system should immediately be brought "up-to-date"; so they added the high school deportment to the already existant primary, intermediate, and grammar departments. The second story of the old building on Pierce Street was where the first high school classes met in September, 1868. The first superintendent, Mr. Allen Armstrong, and one assistant taught the 34 boys and 28 girls who were enrolled. (Average attendance was but 42 - tut, tut, we do better now!) This number dwindled down to the four that were the first graduates of C.B.- H.S. in 1871. The second graduating class had yet more graduates-the total number of 6! And all girls, at that! At that time, the students tried to avoid studying writing, arithmetic, algebra, grammar, geometry, and Latin. But the inconvenience of this location made the board of education arrange for the erection of a new school bui I ding at the top of what is now High School avenue. The Nonpareil described it as a "magnificient building"-and it had a capacity of 300. The building's altitude caused .quite a predicament. It is said that many students were forced to quit-too much high climbing . Five courses of study were now offered : Classical, Latin Scientific, German Scientific, English, and Business. Foundation of a manual training department was being started. The business department now boasted of eight first-class typewriting machines. The chemical laboratory was located in the basement which was dingy and dungeon -like. Although it may have resembled the abodes of the ancient alchemists, the students found the odoriferous chemicals and infrequent whiffs of fresh air not exactly pleasant. But as the enrollment grew and grew, and more adequate means and more thorough equipment were needed to carry out its functions, a new high school was again called for. Over a sunflower patch, the present high school was constructed in 1900; the capacity was 600. In 1913, it was enlarged to its present size. And all the time Council Bluffs grew and grew. The time came when another high school was necessary in the west end of the city. At this time, in 1920, when Thomas Jefferson High School was completed, the Council Bluffs High School took the name of Abraham Lincoln. Improvements seemed to run in a 13-year cycle . Abraham Lincoln High School, having covered the sunflowers in 1900, and having been enlarged in 1913, Principal l(i rn decided that a gymnasium was necessary in 1926, and so it was built. And now in 1939, we are considering the construction of a building behind the school which would be devoted to the mechanical and household arts. In 1936 Kirn field was leveled off for athletics a~d track meets and football games are ~ow held over the site of the old high school. It was named for our principal, G. W . Kirn, upon petitions of the faculty and students, because of his efforts in promoting it. And now to describe the AL. of the present. In the future we shall probably look back and say "how queer,"-but it is all very natural to us now. The courses again have changed radicall y: College Preparatory, Commercial, and General, offering Liberal Arts, Household Arts, Engineering, Secretarial, Accounting, and Retail Selling courses. The school prides itself now on its success in various fields of activity : journalism, music, speech, drama, athletics, and many clubs and societies give the students an opportunity for an enriched and vari ed experience. Ou r overcrowded trophy cases attest to victories in many fields. : : Page 43 : : LIF~ IN THE CLASSROOM-1. A dab of lipstick here, a dash of rouge there. 2 ..

The society is international in character, having more than nineteen hundred chapters distributed throughout the United States, Canada, Alaska, Hawaii, New Zealand, England, and China . Since its organization, April 10, 1926, by a group of high school supervisors for the purpose of awarding outstanding achievement in journalistic e ndeavor, Qui ll and Scroll has played an important role in ra ising the standard of high school journalism. Candidates for membe rship must be at least juniors in high school, must be in the upper third of their c lass, and must have done outstanding work in some phase of journal ism. Our chapter, known as the "Ding" Darli ng Chapter, is named for the well-known cartoonist of the Des Moines Register staff. Sponsors: Miss Baptist and M r. Lee : : Page 48 . .

Later in the school year, when the sports' spotlight focuses on a new activity, a track meet or basketbal I game, the band is called upon to "turn the trick" witl1 a peppy march. Light, danceful music lends color to the May Fete . Because of the band's many fine offerings throughout the year, the school has returned a decision of "highly superior" for it, too, along with the contest judges. . . Page 54 : : ,, Orchestra One of the most representative groups of the school is the high school orchestra. Numbered among the many activities it has participated in are the vesper concerts, the literary society plays, and the operetta. It also supports the seniors as they march "the last mile" to the strains of the "Pilgrims' Chorus." For the orchestra's first performance of the year, it played for the Southwestern Iowa Teachers' Convention. Early this spring the orchestra was selected as the best in this section of the country to play over the radio on a national hookup. Playing the opening and closing numbers on the thirty-minute program under the auspices of the National Music Educators' Conference, the orchestra received many messages of congratulations after the broadcast for its outstanding work. It, along with t he band, rated h ighly superior in the Reg ional Music contest held in Omaha. The fine symphonic effect deve loped by the orchestra is the result of many hours of pract ice by each individual member of the organization. This brilliant performance has more than satisfied the demand made on it throughout the year. In addition to the orchestra as a whole, many students entered the contests individually at Oakland and Harlan this year, wi nning many honor ratings.

As usual, the debate season was enthusiastically begun by the literary society tryouts and announcement of the society squads on September 30. A sophomore, Gerry Ross, came off with top honors in the afte r-dinner speaking contest held at the annual debate banquet . • When the Eros defeated the Philos in the debate finals on November 22, the inter-society tournament officially ended and varsity debating came to the fore with the announcement of the squad for the 1938-39 season. Early in January, the varsity girls came through in second place in the girls' division of the Missouri Valley League debates, while the varsity squad tied for first place at the southwestern Iowa division of the Iowa High School Forensic League held in Abraham Lincoln on February 17 and 18. The month of March ended the debate season for t his year with participation in the McCahill tournament and state finals. Again the school was represented in the extemporaneous speaking division of the Iowa High School Forensic League at Iowa City by Dick Payne, who won the school contest and second in the district. With the stirring original oration, "Lest We Forget," Faye Graves received first place in this district and was the representative of Abraham Lincoln and southwestern Iowa in the State contest. On the night of January 19, the auditorium was the scene of the 25th annual declama - tory contest, in which the winners were awarded medals by the City National Bank. Head ing the oratory division was George Pogge with a speech entitled "Ropes." Other speakers were Jean Jacobsen, Don - ald Gossard, and Donald Jones. Royalyn Hildebrand's deliverance of "The Fool" ac - co rded her the decision in the dramatic division, with Faye G.-aves, Robert Keahey, and Joan Stageman a o participating. Marian Van Druff merited the humorous section award through her interpretation of "Just One Big Happy Family." Barbara Hughes, Joan Haisten, and Doris Haii ton offered the competition. : : Page 60 : : (Reading le ft ta right) : l . '·'Now this book states that if Eng land were to-" 2 .

Aristotelian Literary Society Throughout the years of society work in va rious school activities, debating has played a vi tal part in th e development of the members of the Aristo Literary Society. Since its founding as one of the first li terary groups for boys, the Aristo debate squads ha ve been inte r-society champs three times and runners-up once. Besides the element of competition, much benefit is derived from audience contact, sportsma nship in the fa ce of defeat, and the wealth of material which must be perused before the facts in a debate are presented. Whethe r they win o r lose, the Aristos believe that the survival value of debate is of greatest importance.

The Abraham Lincoln gridders played a nine -game schedule, winning three and losing six contests. Missouri Valley invaded the Lynx camp on the night of September 23 far the opening ti It of the season, but were sent home on the short end of a 6 -0 score. Jack Bigley counted the A. L. touchdown on a pass from Albert Gallo. The Lynx continued from where they left off the preceding week and emerged with an encouraging 7 -6 victory over the · highly touted Maroons from Omaha Tech. LaVerne Jenks tallied all seven points on a pass and a conversion plunge. Abraham Lincoln's hopes far a successful season experienced a severe jolt when Jack Bigley, outstanding Lynx end, suffered a fractured ankle in the third period of this game. Sioux City Central's powerfu l eleven put a stop to the Hilltoppers winn ing ways by casting a dark 20-0 shadow on the ir previously unblemished record. Taking to the road, the gridders found the going a bit tougher than on the home field and took a 40-0 trouncing from the Block Rai ders of East Sioux City. Returning to Kirn Field the next week, the Lynx succumbed to a second half Shenandoah rally a nd fell 13-6. Clark Barritt plunged over far the Lynx lone score. Tackling the ir second inter-c ity foe of the season, the Hil ltoppers bumped up aga inst a stubborn outfit from Omaha Central a nd dropped on exciting thrill-pocked encounter 13-1 2 . Cliff Herd snagged two of Gallo's passes far a pair of touchdowns, but a single extra point made the d ifference . On Armistice Day, the Lynx outplayed a classy Logan aggregation in every phase of the game except the scoring end, and the Panthers wa lked off with a 12-0 win. The Lynx hit the win column again, however, the fallowing week, slipping past a highly improved Iowa School far the Deaf, 6-0, on a second ha lf plunge by Clark Barritt. Closing the season on Thanksgiving Day, the Lynx and t he Yellowjacke ts of Thomas Jefferson battled on even terms the entire first half. A blocked Lynx kick early in the third period on the ir own ten yard line gave the Jeffs their initia l scoring opportunty wh ich they made along with two other scores. Cliff Herd scored on a pass and LoVerne Jenks conve rted to g ive t he Lynx the ir only tallies in the final 19-7 setback. F ront r ow: H euen n a nn, J e nks, Miller , Ros , B. Capel, Barritt.

Second Team Football Presenting a more favorable record than their superiors, the varsity, Cooch Richard Cochran's second team footballers won six and lost four ti Its. The Reserves succeded in downing Benson, North, Central, Creighton Prep ., and Glenwood, while losing to South, Tech, Tee Joy, and Logan . Although slow in getting started the Seconds come through with flying colors to down their lost four opponents on the schedule. These boys will be elevated to bolster the voristy eleven next sea son . Freshman Football Cooch Fee Chew's Baby Lynx failed to register in the win column lost fall, but they were well represented in the lost column with six defeats. The Frosh dropped two games each to Bloomer, Tee Joy, and l.S.D. Although losing all six encou r.ite rs, the Fre shmon should prove worthy material in the future with a little more training. The Baby Lynx poor showing con prob ably be credited to the injury jinx, which quite persistently followed the squad throughout the whole se ason . : : P'4':e 88 : : BASKETBALL RESUME 1938-39 Abraham Lincoln's basketballers opened the season with promise and appeared to be one of the outstanding quintets of the state, but a mid-year slump, partially due to the loss of three mid-season lettermen, including Gallo, Rine hart, and Jessen, ended these prospects. The Lynxmen were credited with wins over the Iowa State Champions from Creston, Iowa, and two victories over Thomas Jefferson, west end rivals, one being the Sectional Tourney finals. After moving along smoothly through the Sectional Meet and their first round game with Glenwood in the District, the Lynx were stunned abruptly by Lenox in the semi-finals 45-44. In city and inter-city play the Lynx fared very well, winning two games from St. Francis and taking two out of three from Tee Jay. In inter-city league play, Lawson's forces ended in second place with four wins and two losses. Grover Hansen, stellar Lynx guard, won a guard position on the mythical all southwest Iowa selections and also on the second all inter-city five . Cliff Herd, forward, made third team forward on the southwest selections. A L. 20 A L. 35 A L. 20 A L. 31 A L. 35 A ..

The Reserves were taken out of the running in the County Tournamen by Treynor in the semi-finals after downing Carson in the opening round . The Seconds carried a large squad of some thirty odd players throughout the entire season. This squad of promising underclassmen will help greatly to form next Year's varsity five . Freshman Basketball Working with new, inexperienced players, freshmen tutor, Harold Stout, found the going tough at times but the yearlings managed to win their shore of games. Although slow in getting organized, the frosh began clicking toward the end of the regular season and they entered the Southwest Iowa Tournament with a presentable five . Their improvement was clearly displayed in their first tourney game as they downed Hastings, 21 -20, but were defeated by Thomas Jefferson in the second round . Fron t row: Reggio. Haughn, Pullen.

Those competing in the state were: Don Beez ley, 85 pound district champion, Grant Hunter, 95 pounde r, Frank Dinovo, 145, and Earl Ree lfs, 155. The latter three were second place winners in the district. Beez ley and Ree lfs won first round matches in the state, but both lost in the semi-finals.

Golf Although only a minor sport in the athletic curriculum, golf has grown rapidly in popularity during the last few yea rs on the hilltop. Coach Harold Stout's golfers enjoyed a comparatively successful season last year and should come through with an even better record this spring with a large squad of hopefu ls to pick from . Competition is becoming stronger each year because of the increasing number of turnouts each Ye ar. Unlike other sports, teamwork is not as important as individual ability.

The Abraham Lincoln unit ends a year of useful and unfailing activity. The military ball and the ,, federal inspection linger in the mind of the student body as two of the outstanding events of the year. If one is familiar with our work, be realizes the everlasting strug - gle to gain the ultimate goal of the R.O.T.C. Drill began early in September with an enrollment of about 525, the largest in the history of the R.O.T.C. at Abraham Lincoln. Companies were organized and senior "hopefuls" took tests which covered much of the theoretical and practical work that is stressed in this military organization. Those cadets who came through were promoted to the rank of second lieutenant. In our first parade, although not yet organized completely, the regiment showed the earmarks of being a crack unit. Hope for an honor award in the annual federal inspection ran high among the cadets. To help make this hope a reality the Cadet Officers' Club was reorganized. This club, although compara t ively new, is becoming the strong voice o the policies of the R.O.T.C. During the winter we applied most of our efforts toward the theoretical branch of mil - itary science. In this period of physical in - activity it seemed hard to keep up the interest but we all realized the value of this work 'in the approaching inspection. More tests were given to cadets wishing to become officers or non-commissioned officers. Each boy began to look with longing eyes toward the coveted rank of colonel, and each dug deeper into the sources of military knowledge. Enthusiasm grew steadily as spring drew nearer and we all began to look forward to the day when we could again resume close-order drill. The day of March 25 was announced as the date for our annual Military Ball. Rumors concerning the identity of the new commanding officers floated about our ears, and suspense ran high. Finally the day arrived. The Military Ball of 1939 will long be remembered as one of the gayest and most colorful balls ever presented at our high school. The officers and their ladies were presented, while an audience of military notables, teachers, students, and parents looked on with deep interest. The Military Ball was a splendid display of m ilitary life at Abraham Lincoln . After the excitement of the Military Ball, we concentrated our efforts upon gaining that honor rating at the inspection which was drawing very close. Companies were assigned to their respective duties for the inspection and we practiced regime ntal re - : : Pag·e 102 : : view many times so that the parade would be perfect. The day of May l 8 was named as the day for the federal inspection, and it came as quickly as March 25 had come. The AL. Regiment turned out in full strength with brass and rifles gleaming to participate in the most important parade or the year.

The early cadets had no attractive uniforms-just drab gray, Civi l War replicas. Target practice and sham battles f med the main routine . Beginning in 18 2 from "scratch," the organization ho5 progressed steadily to become the largest activity of the school. Prompted by the Spanish-American War, fifty members and ex-members of the corps e nlisted among the volunteers and went to the Philippine Islands in 1898. Later, several Abraham Lincoln battalions and one from Thomas Jefferson battled an unseen foe at Dodge Park, drove the enemy out, and seized the bridge. Other like scrimmages and spring maneuvers were carried on in Fairmount Park, using the hills as fortification. So thinking back, would you prefer to hove been one of those first cadets, or one of today's thoroughly routined and trained regimenta l offi ce rs or cadets? : : P age 104 : : R.O.T.C.-COMPANY C Front row : Swanson, Peters e n , Wilcox, Jones, G.

The Crack Squad What does that red and blue shoulder cord mean::> This question concerning the insignia of the regimental crdck squad is asked over and over. When a boy wears this decoration, he is known as a member of the R.O.T.C. drill squad which ranks highest in military precision and close-order drill . The cadets all strive to bring this honor to their own squad. Every Thursday evening after school one may see the various competing squads in the drill lot. Every company is representecl by its best unit of eight men. At the indicated time, each corporal marches his squad about the drill ground, executing the various movements. The best group chosen is the crack squad. The "crack squad" competition has done much to keep up the interest in the military organization and to arouse a feeling of competition which is invaluable in maintaining the mora le of "our boys." : : Pake 105 : : R.O.T.C.-COMPANY E Front row : Brown, B.

Competition for places on the team was stiff, because of the large number of "hopefuls." Each R.O.T.C. cadet was allowed to try out by firing on the range . Finally chosen, the group consisted of about twenty of the better ri fl emen. The team took part in several inter-scholast ic matches, as well as the Seventh Corps Area competition. A lthough they were not always the victors, the boys kept up their spirit and tried hard throughout the target season . Several in the rifle group will be lost through graduation, but the bulk of the team will be back next year. . .

GIRLS' BRAINSTORM IN PHYSICS This tal k of curent in a bore Is often very boring; And study of induction coi Is Has never raised my scoring . These volts and amperes get my goat, Magnetos don't attract me ; The E. M . F. 's in si xty coils Affects mY mind abstractly. Al I generators make me sick, Oh, why were they invented ? A curre nt does a lot of work, But lea ves my skull undented. An armature gives me a pain, And commutators turning Don't make impressions on my brain, And don't increase my learning . These physics terms have pestered me Since back at the beginning, And when I ponder ove r them, They set my poor head spinning . I study hard both day and night, And try to ga in some knowledge ; But if I stay as dumb as th is, I' II never get to college . - Virginia Ann Nelson.

These directors also stage musical , sport, art, collegiate and commercial productions. Industria l and military "scenarios" are a part of the schedule. A we ll -arranged program is outlined by each directo r at the beginning of the season . Together they work overtime to develop new personalities by means of rganizoti~ns among aspiring · actors. A fine addition to the studio sets would be a new building across the street in which industrial and fine art scenarios cou ld be worked out and produced. Each dir<e<:tor holds a counsel with the chief production manager of the Abraham Lincoln Studio. At this time the producer and the directo rs endeavor to develop the methods used in the "stages." Each director is personally interested, a s well as the parents, in bringing out the best possible in the acto rs. When any one acto r shows promise in a definite fie ld, this ta lent is developed and corrected to the acto r's best ability.' This is the field of direction and directors. Theirs is a responsible position . The future of many young c itizens is greatly dependent upon each and e very director to whom he may be assigned. • • • OFFICERS President J ohn Zimmer~an Vice President Don Beezley Secretary Grant Hunter Treasurer Dick Gray Sergean!-at-A rms Jac k Schlemmer Across the ink-blue of the night sky flash spotlights to announce that the premiere has begun. The City Auditorium is the scene of this, the greatest event in the making of the movie . The long rehearsals and expert directing have produced a four-bell performance never to be forgotten . Seated motionless waiting for the premiere to begin is the first night audience. Fathers mothers sis- ,,. ' ' ters and brothers in pright-eyed expectancy are here to see e debut of their own stars. In the audience also are the directors, tired but highly pleased at the results of their coaching. ,/ t The orchestra begins to play and down the S ponsors: Miss Broadfoot, Mr. Steinbaugh aisles march the stars : girls in sheer white formals with huge arm bouquets of red roses, and boys in dark suits-all approaching the finale of their first big movie. Young voices blend together in the singing of the theme song, "Once More Dear Home ." Seated on t he stage, they listen to speeches giving them thei r last directions before they begin on their next film, whether it be college o r work. As a closing scene, the stars receive their awards for distinguished performance and the premiere is over. Fade Out S itting: Don Beezl ey, Miss Broadfoot, J ohn Zimn1 e rman, Grant Hunte r.

L. senior, was chosen out of candidates from the entire state of Iowa as the D. A. R. representative for the spring pilgrimage to Washington, D. C. This contest was the result of the annual contest sponsored by the Daughters of the American Revolution . Selection was based upon service to home, community, school, and church, and upon leadership, patriotism, and dependability. First, Marjorie was voted the senior girl most outstanding in these qua I ities by the student body of A. L. After being chosen again by a committee of faculty members, she won the county and state competitions successively. In April she traveled to the nation's capital to enjoy a four-day tour with 48 candidates from other states. An orchid to Marjorie' : : 36 .. Featured Players We're majoring in scene stealing! Through our careful selection of parts, we will slowly edge out the other experienced players and become the STARS of l 9 4 l . When the present so-called STARS aren't looking, we see to it that our acting surpasses theirs and step into the limelight. So you see we FEATURED PLAYERS are reall y ambitious!

Gl e n Ande rson Kore n Ma d sen Cec ile Bardsley Winfred Phillips S ponsors: Miss Fl ore nce Lo ndon, Mr. Roy Lawson After the learning of lines and with some coaching by the Technical Advisers, these FEATURED PLAYERS have all the promise of up -and-coming young STARS with the talent and ability to succeed in the parts cast for them by the fade -out of the present STARS. Each and every player rehearses his Ii nes so that he may be spotted by a scout and be placed in the movie "Suc - cess," even though he gets a small part. Even the player who is cast in a mediocre " B" picture does his best in order that he may have a chance for recogniti on . Leadership, personality, and reliability are the qualities sought for in the selection of those who receive verbal "Loving Cups." The Charlie McCarthies (wooden heads ) of this group disappear before long, and a fter a few small parts, cultivate the ability to act as understudies to the STARS. Seat ed : :-; ~ La ndon .

Such recognition was obtained through their outstanding work in the publicity department with clever write-ups and good adve rtisements. The renown of this organization is not onl y local, but internationa l. Membership in such an organization offers inspira - ti on t o the actors who find life's drama more interesting when it is written down on paper. Inst ead of continuing as " ham writers," they become Somebody in the journalistic world. Under the title of the "Ding" Darling Chapte r in A L ., they c reate an organization made up of actors most likel y to succeed in journa lism, with ed itors heading the list. Not only character, but integrity and originality in thought are the traits of our young "Pulitzers." They co-operate with their advisers in making the i r publications four-star productions.

L. stage in January. "Trial by Jury," a one-act operetta by Gilbert and Sullivan, was presented by the mixed chorus, with leads double-cast. Typical of British humor was the musical farce, mocking the procedure of an English courtroom of the nineteenth century. Members of the chorus were transformed into ladies and gentlemen of the 1870's by their costumes and beards. Edwin was being sued for breach of promise by Angelina, but ofter the eloquent pleading of the Counsel for the Plaintiff; the jolly story of his majesty the Judge; and demands for "Order in the court" by the Usher; the case was solved happily for all. "PEASANT CANT AT A" Eager to do something entirely new and different from previous operettas, the senior girls' glee club staged Bach 's "Peasant Cantata," a colorful picture of carefree village life. The theme of the cantata is woven about the rejoicing of the villagers and their congratulations to the new lord of the manor and his wife, who have just come to the village . Many gpy folk melodies are introduced and most of the numbers are based on merry country dance tunes. The senior girls' glee members, garbed in gay peasant costumes, combined beautiful music, romance, laughter, and gaiety into a delightful half-hour of entertainment. : : 50 ..

Like most large studios, we have a reserve from which new talent is drawn. The junior glee club is this source of ambitious singing stars. They too have a chance for public performance at the concerts. As a climax to the season's premieres, this studio was host to nearly 30 0 vocal stars at the Southwest Iowa Teachers' Convention in the fall. This huge chorus was given the privilege of being d irected by Mr. John M. Rosborough, of the Lincoln Cathedral Choir.

Sound E f fee ts The question, "Resolved: That the Federal Government Should Own and Operate the Roi I roods," was the cause of the worried looks on the faces of the debaters during the season l 939-40. The various literary society debaters kept the libraries humming at the beginning of the season with their persistent demands for mate rial. The climax of the intersociety debate tournament came when the Eros and the lonions met in the finals for the winning title . The Eros emerged victorious for the second straight year. On this occasion the intersociety debate season come to on end officially, and varsity debating become important with the announcement of the squad. During the middle of December, Abraham Lincoln entered the Girls' Division of the Missouri Volley League Tournament, but was eliminated in the sem i-fina l round. In January, both boys and girls on the debate team e ntered the Open Division of the Missouri Volley League Tournament and were eliminated during the quarter-final round . Ending the debate season was the state tournament at Iowa City in Morch. Abraham Lincoln tied with Thomas Jefferson for first place in the Southwest District Tournament, which made it e ligi ble for the state tournament. Our representative at the State Extemporaneous Speaking Contest was Margery Bock, who placed first in the schoo l and third in the district. Jack Peregoy repre - sented the schoo l in the o riginal oratory contest in the district. The twenty-sixth annual Declamatory contest was he ld in the auditorium on January 11, with medals awarded winners by the City Notional Bank. Royalyn Hildeb rand wa lked off with top honors in the oratorical division with her oration, "Late for a Dote ." Other speakers were Willis Abels, Mory Louise Dick and Di k Moots. T ears and sighs accompanied "Bobby Shafter," prize winning declom by Marcia Wi I cox. Speake rs who offered the competition in the dramatic division were Mary Rose Everest, Ann Verdin, and Bob l<eohey. Amid chuckles Betty Evans was a warded first place for her humorous selection, "Aunt Effi e Goes Horseback Riding."

Back in the age of football when manslaughter was a five-yard penalty and the rules were that you could do anything the referee didn't see, there come to Abraham Lincoln high school a young man by the name of Towsly. He was a graduate of on eastern college. He interested several youths in the game of football. The young men learned the game, but there were no opponents to ploy. To remedy this fault two teams were organized (of which there were just enough men for the full two t eams) . One team was cal led the "Gentours" and the other was named the "Hercules. " The unifo rms of the playe rs we re very good fo r their mode of ploy. The pants looked like two overstuffed studio couches. The shirts were like old-fashioned hunting jackets with bootlaces to hold them tight on the players. Members of the team of 1893 (which was the first formed in Council Bluffs) included men who ore prominent today.

Pigskin Parade Although foiling to chalk up a spectacular record in the win column, the 1939 football season will long be remembered for a good all -around team hitting a new high in spirit and sportsmanship. According to Coach Roy Lawson, he hod the best boys he hod ever wo rked with . The Lynx were te rmed as an on-and -off team, winning three games, losing seven, and tieing one . The Lyn x opened their season at Missouri Volley by overpowering a stubborn Big Red e leven, 14 to 6 . Bob Copel's posses to brother Tom paved the way for both Abraham Lincoln tallies, while Fred Ross completed the job. At Omaha the Hi II toppe rs lost a heartbrea ke r the fo ll owing wee k to th e Maroons of Omaha Tec h by the count of 6-0. Both e levens fought furiousl y for three pe riods without qualifying on the scoreboard. In the closing minutes, as the Crimson and Blue we re ki c king out of dange r, Horry Rutledge, Maroon substitute, galloped 25 yards for the winning sco re. Still thinking about the previous wee k's loss, Abraham Linco ln took it out on Harlan, 20 to 0, in the first home game. The visitors were unabl e to cope with the smooth Lynx running attac k and Cooch Lawso n's strong forward wall. Bob Copel led the attack with two touchdowns. Toking to the rood, Abe Lincoln was outclassed by a powe rful Sio ux City Centra l el even, 26 -0. The gridders we re up aga inst one of the toughest teams in the Missouri Voll ey Confe rence. After a well -e arned week's rest, t he Hi 11 - toppers resumed football activiti es on Kirn Fi e ld against thei r staunch west- end ri vals, Thomas Jeffe rson . This cont est, wh ich ended in a 6-6 deadlock, proved to be t he best game of the sea son .

As a result of two successive blocked punts, Tee Joy was able to tie the score. It was a bitter struggle between the two fine forward walls of both elevens. Omaha Centrol's powerful aggregation downed the Lynx 25-12 on the hilltop the following week. The Purple Eagles accounted for their points on power drives and long posses. Tom Copel scored both the A. L. touchdowns, one as a result of a startling 65-yord run . The Bluffsmen journeyed to Shenandoah where they dropped another heortbreoker, 6-0. The Mustangs, capitalizing on Lyn x blunders, scored their points in the opening period. In the closing minutes, Tom Capel fell l 0 yards short of a touchdown after a 60- yard jaunt. This was the first of three go mes to be played within ten days. Adolf Herzog and the scrappy little Iowa School for the Deaf Bobcats pulled the upset of the season by defeating the Railsplitters 7 -6 . A sustained drive down field scored for the Lynx in the opening period, but they failed to convert the e xtra point. Adolf Herzog galloped 56 yards for the I. S.

The Hilltoppers seemed to be able to score at wi ll. Everyone on the Lynx squad saw action. Sioux City East's powerful onslaug ht invaded the Abe Lynx camp the next week, but found the Lawsonmen no easy prey. The Missouri Valley champs downed the Bluffsmen 16-6. A. L.'s team made a fine showing against a much supe rior e leven, giving the Black Raiders one of the ir toughest battles of the sea - son. In the season's grid finale, which had aroused much discussion, the Crimson and Blue gridders again face d Thomas J effe rson. A c rowd of 4, 500 chi lled fans turned out at the west end f ield to see Abraham Lincoln drop a 6-0 decision. It was another nip-and-tuck battle with the lines taking the spotlight. Tee Jay scored in the second period as a result of Harle Damon's fine passing . A. L. outplayed the ir rivals, but were unable to cash in at the scoreboard. • 1939 Football Schedule A.

L.'s second team footballers seemed to fo ll ow the li nes of their superiors, the Varsity, in thei r season's ploying. Working under a new mentor, Theron Stuelke, the Seconds established themselves as a formidabl e e leven by outplaying most of thei r opponents. The ir season consisted of two wins, two ties, and four losses. The Lynx downed Gle nwood and South. Gomes with Central and No rth resulted in deadloc ks. Coach Stuelke's lads lost to Thomas Jefferson, Tech, Benson, and Creighton Prep. None of these contests were lost by more than a marg in of two touchdowns. Football Starlets FRESHMAN FOOTBALL Presenting one of the most favo rable records of any of the other athletic aggregations was the freshman footbol I eleven. The Baby Lynx, under the eye of Cooch Fee Chew, were undefeated all season-something that hasn't happened in years. The Frosh won the Intro -cit)'.'. championsh ip by defeating Thomas Jefferson, I. S. D. and Bloomer. The on ly mar on a perfect record was a tie with Tee J oy in the second contest. The yearlings proved themselves a great prospect for the future football e levens at Abraham Lincoln . Front row: Osborn . Buclatz, Knudsen, Ilen1ld i, Ranney, Musgrove . W . Schlott.

The Five Wh() Came Back Acclaimed as one of the weakest cage teams at Abraham Lincoln for some years as a result of seven straight losses, the Lynx bosketbollers proved themselves otherwise at the close of the season with decisive victories over Creston, previous season's State Chomps, and Creighton Prep, 1940 Nebraska State Champions. Labeled as the surprise team of the intercity league, the iron man quintet offered many exciting moments for all lovers of clean sports, friend and foe, alike. The hapless Lyn x climaxed their season by snapping Creston's 34-game winning streak after losing their first seven games. Unlike other years, A. L. lost both their games with Tee Jay; the lost contest being on upset, but these defeats were overshadowed when the inspired Lincolns defeated high favored Creighton Prep, twice victors over Thomas Jefferson. The Hilltoppers retained their Sectional Crown which was held at Underwood by defeating Griswold, Avoca and Underwood, but were eliminated in the first round of the District Meet by Creston in a revenge fracas. Cooch Roy Lawson lost two of his Iron Men, John Zimmerman and Word Show, because of graduation. Glen Anderson placed on the All-Southwest basketball team and will return next season to bolster Lawson's hope for a championship team. THE SCHEDULE A. L. 17 .. ............ .. .......... .... ..

The Seconds lost only to Tech, Neola, and Creighton Prep, twice. Stuelke's squad of over twenty boys proved to be a tough outfit to beat. They turned in victories over Tee Jay, twice, Walnut, Central, twice, Tech, Glenwood, twice, Oakland, and Hancock. Some of the outstanding players saw some first team action towards the end of the season. These boys shou ld solve many of Coach Roy Lawson's problems for a successful Varsity quintet next season.

The Yearlings lost to Thomas Jefferson, Bloomer, and I. S. D., and were e liminated in the first round of the Southwestern Tournament by Pierce School.

GRANT HUNTER State Winner, Honorary Captain Matmen At the close of the 1939-40 wrestling season we find the Abe Lincoln matmen one of the leading teams in the state. Lynx grapplers ended the year with eleven wins and only one defeat, to complete the most successful season in the history of the sport in th is school. With five champions and one second and third place winners, Coach Fee Chew's wrestlers won their first District Tourna - ment. The Lynxmen captured the runnerup post in a close inter-c ity league race . Having one wrestler come through at the State Tourney, the Lynx concluded their outstanding year with their first State Champion . In the regular schedule the Hi I I toppers were decisioned only by Omaha Central, lnt? rcity Champs, 22-14, in their second bout of the schedule. Grant Hunter, three -year letterman, climaxed his high school career with an undefeated season. Bob Knight, junior 125-pounder, and Wayne Lee, fouryear varsity letter winner, each suffered only one defeat throughout the twelvematch campaign. !(ni ght was undefeated in the 125-pound class, but was handed his only defeat to Perkins of Hamburg in the l 35-pound division.

Knight, in the 125 division; and Fronk Dinovo, 145-pound representative, won first place berths in their respective weights at the District Tourney held at Atlantic. Kenneth Arch, second place medal winner, and Howard Andersen, third placer in the l 05 and heavyweight classes, respectively, contributed greatly to win the first place trophy. Qualifying the five first place champions and one second place winner, the Lynx journeyed to New Hampton to enter the State High School Wrestling Meet. 0 . Lee, Arch, W. Lee and Dinovo dropped their first round matches. Hunter and Knight won their first match, but l(night lost in his second encounter. Hunter won two decisions and a foll in copping the 95-pound division State Championship. Hunter threw Roths of New Hampton in the finals to emerge victorious. It was the first time a grappler from Abraham Lincoln hod won the coveted position. Of the eight graduating senior lettermen, Hunter, in due reword for his brilliant record, was elected honorary captain for the wrestling season just completed. The motmen who wrote finis to their high school wrestling competition, besides Hunter, were Don Beezley, Kenneth Arch, Wayne Lee, Fronk Dinovo, Roy Campbell, Rudy Joksho and Howard Andersen. ~ -...

They Swing the Sticks Abraham Lincoln is noted for its wide field of athletic enterprises, but until a few years ago golf had not entered the schedule at the hilltop. For those not interested in track, golf has been accorded much popularity in the past few years. Under the tutelage of Coach Harold Stout, the golfers have improved every year, although they are still behind some of the other e xperienced schools. Nevertheless, they were able to achieve a fairly successful season last year and are expected to do even better this spring. Kt1cket-teers Much credit is due to the boys who represent Abraham Lincoln in tennis. Although a minor sport at this school, more boys are turning out each year and taking a greater interest in it. Because of inadequate playing facilities, the netsters find it hard to compete with other schools that feature the hard-clay sport. Under the eye of Coach Howard Mcilrath, the tennis players have to do "as best they can whereve r they can." Very little time is spent in prac - tice because they lack a court, and the practice that is done is in the gymnasium. : : 07 : : Front row: Miss Ni x, Everhardt, Ford, Stageman, Kmez ich.

Farewell f(J the Seni(Jrs Once there was a freshman Who started to this school, He didn't know his way around And to all he was a fool. Next he was a soph'more, He had been here just one year, Of course he knew his way around And no one did he fear. We Extend Best Wishes To The Graduates of 1940 • SHAWLER'S FLOWER SHOP 545 W . Broadway Phone 1622 And then he was a junior, Only one more year to go, He was a "wow" in a ll the clubs And to others he did crow. At lost he was a sen ior, The goal was reached so fast, Graduation time hod now arrived, His high school days were post. Out into the world he set To get a job or die; He was smiles from head to toe, The world was cherry pie. In school he "boned" for any job And studied every course, He had taken Spanish, Germon, French And shorthand from the source. But woe betook our hero brave, He searched both night and day, But a paying job he never found, He's now on W. P. A. So let this be a warning To you seniors bold and true: You never know what's coming When you r high school days are through. - Ea rl Z in:me rman.

Gy mnasium T wo The Nation's Moral Defense Throughout the nation, the gears of industry are rotating at full speed. Factories are beginning to turn out defense items in mass production. So it is with the high schools of America . Simultaneous with hurried preparations for national defense, thousands of stu - dents are preparing for their future as citizens. They have completed their apprenticeships and are ready to take part in their nation's moral defense as full-fledged workmen . These students have passep through their last "bottleneck." When this year's commencement exercises have come and gone, many thousands of young men and women graduates will shoulder new responsibilities. They will gladly accept the task of carrying on in the struggle to preserve Amercan liberties. ~.I Table of Contents Dedication Administration Faculty Classes Activities Sports R. 0. T.

We know that only by keeping our minds free from prejudice and narrowness can we preserve the essence of democracy; that by opening our hearts and minds and keeping them clear and liberal, we can help to preserve for ouselves and our fellow-men that individual freedom which our forefathers embodied in the Constitution. Therefore, it is to spiritual defense that we dedicate the Crimson and Blue of 1941 . Fi ve Si x BOARD OF EDUCATION Raymond Smith, E. V. Gustafson, Poul E.

He hos hopes of becoming a great executive, or a teache r, or a scie ntist, but no matter what he does, he is stil l a port of the great mo ss of the Ame rican peop le who ore striving to make this a happy and prosperous notion. But h is jo b is not complet e at this point, fo r it is his p riv il ege to guide th e li ves of futur e gene rati ons. It ho s come t ime for him to put his education int o practice and poss h is knowledge along , in order that he ma y be a strong and stu rdy lin k in the chain of de fe nse of Ame ri can peopl e.

This operetta is based on the old fairy tole in which His Majesty, the Emperor, is tricked into buying a suit of clothes which, supposedly, can be seen only by the good and faithful. The results are very humorous indeed. The shysters, Flou Flou and Fripcn, ore apprehended by Jorrotiere, the banished betrothed of the Princess, thus winning the favor of the Emperor. In order to show his gratitude the Emperor presents Chousette, his daughter, to Jorrotiere in marriage and names him as the crrince llo r to succeed the aged Archivieux. The music for the operetta is clever and colo rful and greatly accentuates the mood of the operetta as a whole. Two dance groups added much to the presentation. One of the most outstanding and commendable characteristics of the operetta was that all costumes, wigs, and prope rties were made by the members of the vocal groups. Special mention must a lso be give n the fine orchestral work. A single phrase aptly describes this operetta : "One of the most colorfu I and successful musical pe rformances eve r pres2nted at Abraham Lincoln ."

Learning to Analyze Problems One of the first steps in becoming a good citizen is becoming acquainted with one's government. The debate squad too k a great stride along this line when discussing the subject, "Resolved : The Powers of the Federal Government Should Be Increased ." The first event in the debate season was the annual debate banquet. Jack Peregoy won first place in the after-dinner speaking contest held at that time. Following this was the intersociety tournament. The Logos, "the underdogs" of past years, won the boys' tournament and the Cli os defeated th~ girls. As is the custom, the women had the last word when the Clios defeated the Logos in the final rounds. After the close of intersociety debate, the large varsity squad was chosen . These deba ters participated in the Missouri Valley Debate Tournament. Here the girls placed fourth and the boys placed third in their respecti ve tourname nts. The varsity fiftee n was then earl y January, the se people Midland Coll ege at Fremont. Fifl t1Ul' selected. In journeyed to A. L. entered two teams which came out well in spite of opposition . Merry DeVol and Mary BrugenHemke entered the extempo and afterdinner speaking contests respectively. During February, A. L. had the honor of playing host to the underclassmen for a discussion program. This tournament gave juniors and sophomores an opportunity to debate and also to hear some very outstanding speakers. Concluding a very successful year, the Varsity Fifteen journeyed to Perry, Iowa, to Drake University at Des Moines, and to Iowa City for tournaments. Although the teams had tough competition, they emerged with a good percentage. Winners of the declamatory contest which was entered by all literary societies were as follows: Walter Wheeler in the oratorical division, who spoke on "And Sudden Death" ; Joyce Bransby in the humorous di - vision, whose sel ection was "The First Day of Kindergarten"; and La Verne Page in the dramatic division, who gave "Buttons".

FIRST SQUAD Abraham Lincoln's basketeers opened the season with promise, a nd appeared to be one of the bette r quintets in this vicinity. The Lynx downed si x opponents in their first seven starts. T he ca ge rs were unable to ma intain this pace a nd the rema in ing games were represe nted equa lly in t he won and the lost columns Most impressive was the first A L.-T.

Other high spots of the 1940-41 campaign were the win over Creighton Prep and the machine-like effectiveness used to snuff out Omaha Tech, 42 to 19. · Three t eams were victims of the Lyn x twice during the season, Sioux City East, Omaha Tech, and St. Francis. Missouri Valley, Logan and Omaha Benson suffered defeats when they met the Hilltoppers. The Lincolns also celebrated victories at the expense of Sioux City Central, Creighton Prep and Thomas Jefferson . Of the seven losses, Tee Jay and Omaha Central each accounted for two with Sioux City Central, Creighton Prep, and Creston copping re - ve nge ti Its. Story Sul hoff rl Bera I di Reggio Thoma s The Hilltoppers rolled along in the Sectional Tournament dropping St. Francis, 35 to 27, and topping Logan, 43 to 32. Then, meeting Tee Jay for the third time, the Lynx dropped a close 28-26 decision to lose a sectional tourney for the first time in several years. Coach Roy Lawson lost two mid-season lettermen, Glen Anderson and Art Reggio, and four more lettermen because of gradua - tion : Honorary Captain Bud Plunkett, War- ren Vogt, Dick Dean and Jack Strowig . Art O'Neill, Don Radtke, Bob Story, Orris Murphy, Bob Gibler and George Lemen will return next season to form a nucleus for Coach Lawson. A. L. A. L. A. L. A. L. A. L. A. L. A. L. A. L. A. L. A. L.

Creighton Prep was again easy prey for the Lynx grapplers before succumbing again to Tech, Tee Jay, and South. Coach Chew, with a manager and ten of h is best men, trekked to Cherokee to participate in the district wrestling tournament. Don M iller, Warren Binkley, Leo Cash, Fred Garrett, Louie Carta, Mark Stageman, Bob Wright, Orville Wright, Dick Leed, Eugene Diller, and Manager Oda Sulley were the boys making the trip. Cash, a 112-pound junior, was the only team member to p lace when he copped the championship of his division He was eliminated in the fi rst round of the state meet held at Clarion. Bob Knight, veteran Lynx grappler, was kept from action because of ill ness. The team was further weakened when Orval Lee injured a shou lder. For the season, Leo Cash, Dick Leed, Bob and Orville Wright, and Gene Diller looked best for Abraham Lincoln. These boys mode good showings agai nst Nebraska State champions in intercity matches.

With only five of the seven lettermen in school turning out, Cooch Chew was handicapped in the seven meets which he entered.

N inety-six Military Highlights March 22 I One of the highest honors attainable by any senior in A L. is about to be bestowed upon two people. It is the n ight of the Mi litary Ball whe n the honor of heading a ll the cadets in school is to fall to some R. 0 . T. C. officer, and one of the twenty-nine girls selected by the gym c lasses is to be named Honorary Colonel. A tense si le nce falls. The buzz of conversation ceases. All eyes are faste ned on the c losed curtains behind which are t he unknown "draftees." The n Cadet Colonel Bob Pete rson and Honora ry Colone l Jean Beno lead the grand march amid the prolonged cheers of the spectators. The secret is out at long last. - \ I \ \ I J I ~~ R. 0. T. C. trains boys along definite lines of leadership and character. It gives them moral and mental discipline and teaches habits of good conduct and self-government. Through strict guidance, boys develop stamina and individuality, become self-controlled, and learn to work with others in an orderly society. R. (!). <J. e.

T. C. as a sophomore. Only the boys in this organization know the struggle involved in order to achieve an Honor Rating at the annual inspection . With the announcement of the beginning of drill in the middle of September some five hundred boys were launched on the way to an Honor Rating the following May. Competitive examinations involving ail subjects covered in the first two years of their training were given the seniors wanting a promotion. Outstanding cadets in these tests were promoted to second lieutenants and allowed to lead the "Back to the Rails" parade . Theoretical training held the cadets' attention during the winter months. Lectures were given concerning map reading, musketry, first aid, combat principles, scouting and patrolling, and the characteristics of infantry weapons. When spring came and close order drill was resumed, interest mounted steadily. The 1941 Military Ball was one of the most beautiful of all balls and will be long remembered. Efforts were then concentrated on the inspection which was scheduled for May l 3. Drill was held five days a week in order to give more time both to close order and extended order training . Companies were given their respective duties for the inspec - ti on and these were practiced over and over. May l 3 arrived rapidly. The regiment turned out in all its glory-officers with brass and sabers gleaming, and cadets with immaculately clean uniforms .. . . The end of another year came all too quickly as the 1941 regiment fol lowed the 1940 into the past.

Rosenkranz Two Mobilized For Victory Awake America! Stand by to meet any emergency! A radio flash on December 7, 1941, shocked Americans into a full awareness of national danger. The. phr.ase, "Remember Pearl Harbor," will come in the future to be a household word for alertness. Now it is the war-cry of youth, a cal I to the army, the navy, the air corps. The cream of American manhood is being mobili zed for victory. In no less measure has the a lert been sounded for the citi zens at home. We are the wardens who, wide-awake, watchful vigilant, whi le keeping national life going normally, must at the same time bend every effort to war production. Priorities demand that we place defense above every other consideration. Yet the schools still rema in the first line of defense, for out of them come the future soldiers, the sa ilors, the airmen; out of them too comes the post-war nation. The school is the greatest priority. Happy will be the country that remembers that after wars cease, out of the schools come the statesmen, the presidents, the scholars, the artists, the workmen in all walks of life. Here in the school beats the heart of the nation. That heart is alive to America's need. CONTENTS--Dedicat ion (4 ) .. . A d - m ini stration ( 6 ) . . . Faculty ( 8 ) . .

Four America On Guard The Statue of Liberty, standing guard at America's front door, uplifts a torch that is a constant challenge to vigilance. Now as never before in the world's history, this is a challenge to preserve a way of life. That way of life for us Democracy-a way of life that believes in the worth of the individual, in liberty, and in "freedom-loving men and women." Our spiritual heritage is too deep-rooted to rel inquish; we are determined to preserve it at all costs. Conquer we must. As young people who must in the future carry on the American tradition, we dedicate the yearbook of 1942 to the Spirit of Eternal Vigilance.

Eleven They Guide and Inspire THE FACULTY The faculty of a modern American high school accepts a challenge second to none . Meeting youth on its own ground, the teachers must be Argus-eyed to catch every flicker of talent and to fan it into a flame of action. Guidance and inspiration are the keynotes of their program. The forty-five members of A L.'s faculty are thoroughly alive to the opportunities and responsibilities of their task. The Dean of Girls As friendly consultant and confidant, the dean of girls is an indispensable asset to any large high school. Miss Nyrop has filled this position admirably here for eleven Miss Dora Nyrop Twelve years. Her duties include supervision of N. Y. A work for girls, first-aid service, counseling, pre-college advice, orientation, and supervision of rural students. Alice Madsen I In the classrooms the student becomes aware of the many wonders awaiting him in the fields of ~cience, mathematics, music, literature, h istory . If he is alert, there is no limit to the range of his understanding of the universe. Thil'tt_C!l Standing: Blaine Vandevente r, Mr. Burke.

Now we find ourselves in the place of honor at Abraham Lincoln High School. Four yea~ of high school have seen our mora l, mental, and physi cal growth . We were grade school children with little responsibility; now we are seniors who have been trained to accept and fullfill our obligati ons and responsibilities. We shall go on doing this with an earnestness that shows we are qualified to step into the business and social life of a nation at war as well as at peace. Citizenship, as well as scholastic attain - ment, has played an important part in our education. By becoming good citizens of our school, we may, in turn, become good citizens of our nation . Now, as we poss the finale of our days in high school, we shall be on the alert to grasp the impressive opportunities of the adult world. We shall endeavor so to live that our school, its faculty, and our friends may feel pride in our achievements. Fifteen EARL ANDERSON Commercial Masque and Wig, Head electrician, R.O.T.C.

We gained a "thank you" from the seniors for arranging the Junior-Senior Prom. We hope that we have gained the goodwill of the faculty so they will welcome us-to coach and teach us in our senior year. We look forward to our senior year with hope comparable to that felt last year in Th irty-two becoming upper classmen. Our scholastic and athletic attainments we hope will be crowned with greater success next year. We will apply our efforts to keep up the reputation of our school, to make the alumni proud of us, and to please our schoolmates. So we bid farewell to our junior year and will welcome the September that will begin our senior year.

DcVol. Forensics This year's debate problem "Resolved: That every able-bodied male citizen of the United States should have one year of full Lme military training before attaining the present draft age" was timely and in line with the trend of thought of the American people. Th2 regular varsity two-men teams were used for the first time this year in intramural competition instead of the traditional three-men teams. In the final rounds, the champion boys' team, the Aristos, defeated the Thalians, the champions of the girls. The varsity squad then started to prepare for the contests that were in the offing. A new system of problocts was e xperimented with and proved successful. In Decembe r the varsity team placed second at a tournament at Central High School in Lincoln, Nebraska. With the advent of 1942, the debate team returned to Lincoln Fifty-six to enter the Nebraska Wesylan Univesity Forensics contest. Out of a field of more than th irty teams, Abraham Lincoln squad placed sixth in the two-day meet. The varsity members with a full month to prepare for the district tournament at Perry, Iowa, ofter the Wesylon contest, went to work with full intention of gaining ultimate victory at the district contest. On Morch l, Rose Pa luk.a, Leono ra Sollozo, Marvin Richards, Jack Peregory, a nd R. Craig Olson, succeeded in winn ing the tournament, undeofeted, untied, and with a total average of "excellent" for both teams. The accomplishments were not singularly at the district, however, for Jock Peregory qualified for the state tournament in extemporaneous speaking. The State Tournament was a proving ground for good hard work, and although A. L. was not victorious, the contest was a most desirable climax to the year's work.

From the time a student ente rs the ninth grade until he becomes a sen ior, his highest ambition is to become a member of the National Hono r Society. The requirements for this honor are stiff. They are stiff because only a limited number may be selected as members. To be elegible fo r membership, one must rank in the upper third of h is c lass if he is a senior, and in the upper fourth of h is class if he is a junior. He must have shown marked achievements in other qualifications. S ixty-two There are four basic requirements for membership in this o rganization: Character, scholarship, leadersh ip, and service. In considering membership, a secret committee of teachers composed of representatives from eve ry department se lect those who have most nearly fulfilled these high standards. Fi nally the day comes when members are to be taken into the Honor Society. After three or four years of diligent study and service, the ir ambition is at last realized.

Seventy-n ine Gridiron Review Boasting of no spectular record in the 1941 season, the Abraham Lincoln football squad ended the campaign with three wins chalked up against five defeats. The first game resulted in a setback, but that was soon overshadowed as the Lynx pounded out two successive victories on home grounds. Constantly battling the injury jinx, the squad went into a four-game slump and finall y emerged by taking the season's loser. On September l 3, Abraham Lincoln invaded the stronghold of the Big Red in the season's initial fray. A veteran Missouri Valley outfit capitalized on blunders midway in the nip-and-tuck battle to blast the hopes of the Lynx for an undefeated sea - son. From deep in the heart of A L. territory a poor punt and a disastrous penalty paved the way for Valley's score. Grid proceedings on Kirn Field were started two weeks later as a scrappy Logan went down, 13-6. Scott's end run climaxed a first quarter drive, and O'Neill's 56-yard runbac k of a Logan pass yielded the Lynx their first victory. City rivalry was renewed on the West End Field as Thomas Jefferson played host to the Lincolns. Tee Jay struck first, but A L. countered a s Lemen took the kickoff and went 96 yards behind good blocking to even the count. Driving over twice in the last ART O'NEILL Honorary Captain half, the Yellowjackets handed our gridmen a bitter 19-6 setback. The Bluffsmen raided the den of the East Sioux City Raiders in the tough est scrap of the season . Scoring in every quarter the powerful Sioux Citians scuttled the outclassed, but spirited Lincolns, 26-0. In spite of a crippled squad, Hilltop home competition was kept in the win column at the expense of Atlantic the next wee k. Abe Lincoln regulars and reserves topped off a spirited week of practice as they a 11 saw action in the 24-6 victory. Scott and Radtke sparked the offense with long end runs that brought the crowd to its feet. A blocked punt deep in Lynx territo ry was the golden opportunity and Central Omaha took it to squeeze past Coa ch Lawson's lads in a 7-0 heartbreaker on Kirn Field .

It was a contest between two fine forward walls with our line carrying the scrap to the heavier opponent all the way.

Lynxmen took the first four games from North, Benson, Tee Jay, and North, before bowing to South, Central, and Creighton Prep for a seasons percentage of .571. These boys had a lot of spirit and will push returning lettermen for varsity berths next year. Baby Frosh The hard luck team on the hilltop was the baby frosh who had a clean slate of no wins. Coach Leslie Bayless's lads, in spite of defeat, were never push-overs in losing close contests to Tee Jay and Bloomer.

Eigh ty -SC\'CTI Lynx The Abe Lincoln wrestling squad was given the works during the 1941 -42 season, losing ten matches and winning only one. Our new wrestling instructor, Paul Hoemann, built his squad around the four returning lettermen - Loper, Lee, Cash, and Carta Starting off with a bang by pinning Atlantic 26-20, the team showed great promise, but soon fell into the paws of a ten-game losing streak, defeats coming at the hands of Tech, South, Central, North, and Tee Jay. Doped to clinch the cellar spots at the district tournament, a determined aggregation of grapplers journeyed to the meet and orought home third place. Four boys qualified for individual honors : Loper and Carta, l 29 and l 35 class respectively, copped first place crowns, and Lee and Campbell took second place in the 112 and 95 pound classes. E ighty-e ig h t CO-CAPTAINS Leo Cash-Lynx individual scoring champ. Louis Loper-District winner.

But the future looks bright for Coach Hoemann, for district-winner Carta, and the second-place champ, Bob Campbell, both return for another year of competiti on.

" Nine ty-five ~ I In the Military Spotlight "The Military Ball is tonight." For twenty-three years the students of Abraham Lincoln High School have looked forward to that night every year when one of the highest honors in the school will be given to one senior boy and one senior girl. "Victory" was the theme of the Military Ball this year on March 7 . Rifles, the nine corps area symbols, the colorful dresses and uniforms, and the huge Amrican Flag stretched across the ceiling made an impressive sight and helped to carry out the theme of the Ball. One by one the officers and honorary officers were presented and formed a long double line . Through this line, under drawn sabers, Cadet Colonel Robert Alberti and Honorary Colonel Mary DeVol passed on to lead the grand march .

In a sense, for the seniors, graduation from high sc hool marks one sunset in their careers. It is only a temporary lowering of the flag, however. In an early dawn On e Hundred Four their flag, too, will again be flying to mark continued activity in college, career, or calling. For the rest of us, June is a pause in our education, but September will see us again gathering on the hillside in the old, redbrick school house, ready for another year of furious activity.

Jhe (}olden Spike SNCE THE first transcontinental ra ilroad was completed by the driving of the golden spike at Promonotory Point, Uta h, May l 0, 1869, railroads have played a great pa rt in the development of Council Bluffs. Because of railroads, our city has grown from the sma ll tradi ng post of Ka nesville to be the fifth largest rai lroad ce nte r in the United States and the largest in its population class. It has the third largest railway mail terminal in the United States. The rai lroads he lp support the schools throu gh ra il taxes. They give employment to many persons here, and spe nd large amou nts for supplies. They have symboli zed unity, power, progress, co-ordination, and defense not only for our city and state, but for the na tion . These quali ties are reflected in our school life. In conside ration for a 11 that ra i I roads have done and wi 11 conti nue to do for our city, Abraham Lincoln Hi gh School dedicates the 1947 Crimson and Blue to the railroads. It is our "golden spike", li nking the rai lroad ing past with the railroad and air age of the future.

The Daughters of the America n Revolution dedicated the memorial in October, 191 l , and the site is now a favorite spot from w hich to view the two cities and the river valley. Lincoln, at the time of his visit here, first met and tal ked w ith Grenville M. Dodge, whose "whole career is synchronous w ith ra ilway expansion west of the Mississipp i," according to t he Rev. J. R. Perkins, h is biographe r. The story has been pre - served in " T rails, Rails and War."

Pete Crose DIRECTOR: Mr. Seidl "Boogie Woogie " Jack Treynor pounds the ivories and draws a n admiring crowd , The fun, hub-bub and excitement of contest work is the mai n event of the school year for the musicians in the small instrumental groups. Some might say, " Where do you see any fun in working over music just for a rating"? They wou ld a nswer back, " You don't know what you're missing." Of course it's hard work practicing and practicing unti l the piece is ready for perfection, but, oh, how proud they feel when they go to the score board and find that their division got a l rating! There's also the excitement of piling into a bus and heading for the place of competition, Top to ri ght : String Quintet, Brass Quintet, Woodwind Quartet, Contest Soloists, Brass Quartet, Trumpet Trio, Drum Ensemble. where young people all over the state gather to vie in music. A. L. was right on top this year when it came to excellent ratings, not only in vocal but also in instrumental music. ' The state contest for 1947 was held at Missouri Valley on April 25 and 26, with Abraham Lincoln being awarded twenty-seven superior ratings. In the vocal department there were four superiors and five excellent ratings. Tne instrumental groups, as shown on these pages, brought home five superiors and thirteen excellents. Council Bluffs is outstanding in music appreciation, and A.

Valley confe re nce foe, A. L. vs. T. J. Fift y- t hree Omaha Tech, at Kirn Field to start the season's campaign. Jim Anderson was fired a pass and he dashed over for six points. Gibbons of Tech scooted around end for Tech's score in the third quarter, with Sam lncontico booting the winning point. The trying Lynx lost 7 to 6 , handicapped in their ' 1greeness.'' With high hopes for victory denied them with Tech, the Hilltoppe rs journeyed to Shenandoah for the second contest of the season. Fighting hard, A. L. outplayed the Mustangs in the first half. The able Lynx were rocked for two touchdowns in the last half. Fumbles by A. L. let the score stand 1 2-0 in Shenandoah's favor. Facing the city rival, T. J., A. L. fought hard to preserve the 6-6 tie, which was racked up on a pass rifled to Jim Anderson. A blocked punt late in the fourth quarter set the Jeffs' winning plunge, with no time left for the Lynx to match it. It was 12-6, the Jeffs on top in points, as the game ended. The Junior jays of Creighton Prep were the next conquerors of the game Abe Lynx crew. A quarter-back sneak by Roger Van Meter netted the Crimson and Blue's only score .

The final score was a moral victory of 6-6. The taste of victory was gained against the Omaha Central Eagles the following week by defeating them l 8-0. Jack Scott sliced off tackles for the opening score while Dick Eckert scanimered w ith two passes for 12 more points. john Briggs stood out in line, as the whole Lynx team looked good. The powerful Boys' Town club, unbeaten and untied, were the next to invade the Lynx camp. Boys' Town scored on their first play. The Lynx came roaring back to tie the score on a bullet pass play in which Jim Anderson scored. The final seore rested with Boys' Town 21 -6 in a hard fought game . Looking for revenge, the Lynx took up their a rch intercity foes, Thomas Jefferson. Pass interceptions and fumbles ruined the Abe Lynx otherwise fine attack and accounted for the 26-7 pasting.

The Inter- city Championship and runne r-up spot in the tough Mo. Valley Conference were two laure ls which were won by the Lynx. Handicapped by a large squad, Coach Lawson nevertheless. developed a strong and well-balanced team which won its opening game on a basket in the last eight seconds. The Lynx then journeyed to Sioux City, where they lost the game to Central. The fastbreezing Lynx came shooti ng back to win four in a row- Sioux City Ea.st, Omaha Central, Thomas Jefferson and Omaha Tech. Sixty After playing a tough game on Friday ( 46- 43), A. L. shot it out with Bays Town, losing 33-31 in a thri ll-packed game. A. L. then trounced its former conqueror Sioux City Central 37-27. The valiant Lynx lost to Creighton Pre p on a foreign court. The disappointed team came charging back to post wins over Sioux City East, Omaha Tech and T. J. Journeyi ng to Lincoln for their toughest game of the season, the Lynx were turned back by an a lert Lincoln team. A. L. blasted its last two scheduled oponents, Omaha Centra l and Creighton Prep, and prepared for the state tournament. The Hil ltoppers coasted th rough the d istrict tourney, posti ng triumphs over Ade l and Glenwood. Playing the favorite role, A. L. was tamed by Villisca 4 1 to 50 in the substate tourney.

Lawson, Abraham Lincoln head coach, requested on N ovember 8 a leave of absence for the rcm;tinder of the school year. Corning. to the hilltop in 1929, Mr. Lawso n has been head coach since I 93 6. Throughout the course of his coachin g here, he always regarded development of a large sq uad more important than that of shaping up a COACH LAWSON few crack players. T eamOn leave from hilltop duties. work and sportsmanship he considered paramount in athl etics. A lthough this year's eleven reco rded no wins, Mr. Lawso n 's teams have presented in the past the best percentage of games won since 19 19. - 42- the the Abraham Lincoln's Lyn x fai led to crack victory column during the '47 season. Still, team was not without success, for " ba ttles are lost in the same spirit in which they are won." Spirited varsity play was seen in games against two of the toughest opponents, Creighton Prep and Boys T own . The will to fi ght aga inst odds was present also in the other contests of the season with Thomas Jefferson, Sioux City East, Omaha T ech , and Omaha Central. If an A . L. team ever had to believe in sportsmanship as its own rewa rd, the 1947 gridmcn did . Courage, persistence, fairness, the stuff it takes- these were all theirs. Every boy on the squad is to be commended fo r trying his hardest. SECOND TEAM FOOTBALL First Row: Manager Dryden, Ford, Bryso n, Keller, T . Fischer, Diblasi, Post, Wickman, R . H ansen, F.

The Lynx squad was handicapped at the first of th e searnn by the necessity of practicing at the Dodge Armory. But under the able coach in g of Vic J en nin gs, A. L's new mentor, th e Lynx develo ped into a strong, well-lialanced team . SomelhinlJ lo Victor Jennings, former Abraham Lincoln High School and Parsons College athlete, took over the Abraham Lincoln head coaching position December l. H e came here from Alliance, Nebraska, to fill out the unexpired term of Roy Lawson. Although his sports career at Abraham Lincoln was hampered by an injury in his senior year, Mr. Jennings played brilliant football at Parsons College, where he was a fo ur-year letterman and made All-Iowa Conference end. Since 1936, Mr. Jennings has been active in sports, either as a coach or as an offi cial. His previously-coached teams have been unifo rmly successful. - 44- fi ghtin g gallantly, the Lynx nevertheless went down in th e first game of th e season with Creighton Prep. Then, journeyin g to Sioux City, th e A. L. squad defeated Central, 40-30, but was trounced on the East boards in a close, ha rd-fought battle . T he Lynx smashed back subsequently to win eight in a row: Omaha Central, T ee Jay, Omaha Tech, Sioux City Central, Sioux City East, Omaha T ech, T ee Jay, and Lincoln Central. Having defeated Lincoln Central, th e Lyn x lost th e Mo. Valley title in a heart-breaker with Omaha Central 38·37. In th e last game of the season, A. L. grimly hun ~ on to th e Creighton Prep sq uad, but once again ended up o n th e low sco re side . T ee Jay defeated th e Lynx squad in th e distri ct game to knock A .

School, too, is a "jumping-off" place where, through many kinds of learning, we ready ourselves fo r exciting frontiers of our own- " the adventures that have no time and no place- the great adventures of the human mind and heart and spirit" O n these facing pages are shown our school's physical plant and a view of Council Bluffs, once famous itself as an outfitting point for the Forty-niners and Mormons. School Is A "Jumping-Off" Place Captains of the Caravan On the old wagon trails, captains of the caravan were the organizers, the leaders who h elped those in their ch arge to journey successfully to their goal . .. Today, school board, administration, and faculty serve in a similar capacity. BOARD OF EDUCATION E. L. ALLPHIN, President CLYDE C. CAVITT CARL ECKERT THOMAS M cMILLEN DENNIS L. NELSON CHARLES W . LANGMADE LLOYD W. ROPER A Principal with a Purpose A. T. WHITMAN, Secretary SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS RUSSEL J. MOURER 4 PRINCIPAL OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN Alth ough h e is our new princi pal, M r. Stuelke is not new to A . L. Before th e war, he taught social studies; returning from se rvice in January, 1946, h e became vice- principal. An important interest of his is th at of developing the student council into a n organization of fun ctioning government with real influence . Anoth er is that of in - stilling in each student an often -neglected sense of disci pline and responsibility to accompany his rights and pri vil eges. Mr. Stuelke 's philosoph y of democrati c and practical citi zenshi p is best ex pressed in this message to the stude nts of Abraham Lincoln High : " In a democ racy th e process of educating yo uth should cove r th e span of life experience . The knowledge instill ed and the skills and attitudes developed should deal with th e mental, ph ysical, social, spiritual, moral, ethical, aesthetic, and vocational aspects of his life. "Our school h as a definite obligation to educate yo ung people to live useful lives. The educated man is h e who uses the culture of mankin d to adjust himself to conditions of his time." Theron R.

James Marshall opened the sluice-gate of Sutter's Mill, watched the torrent rush from th e tailrace, and excitedly scooped up a h andful of yellow nuggets washed th ere by th e water . N ews of the gold spectac ularly opened another "sluice-gate, " and th e tide of westward emigration spilled ove r the All eghenies, through th e Cumberl and Gap, fl oodin g the grassy prairies and th e far western slopes. 8 For some, th e gold rush meant a fo rtune gained ; for others, a fortun e lost. But, win or lose for th e Forty- niners, this discovery ch anged th e course of history- and u Before, we h ad been Europea ns; now we were something new, Americans, reshaped by th e influences of th e fro ntier land . Out of th e W est came a g reat American h erit;tge- a heritage of vitality, of strength , and of practical th ought--which gives enduring character to o ur peopl e ancl to our way of life. --- - -- - 1 J Looking Forward G old! For centuries that magic word has lurccl seekers o f wealth all ove r the world. H erc in America it sent th em fl ocking to th e Gdifornia gold field s in '49, and ag;tin to the Colorado country ten years later. But our rea l we<dth is not in " cliggin's" or beckoning greener pastures. A ll of th e qualities of 9 the frontier- self-reliance, adventuro us spirit, ingenuity, democr;tcy, and read y confidence- arc the "pay clirt" in yo uth. It is m th em, in each of them, this wea lth , pa ying off in their fo rward -looking visio n of a n even better Amcric t. So, to you se niors, .1un1ors, sophomores. ;tt1d freshmen- A .

The nation rolled west in cove red wago ns- and it was organization that greased the axles, th ;tt supplied the bacon and beans fo r the long trek, that elected a captain of the carava n fo r leadershi p. It was org;tnization, level-h eaded fo resight, planning, and pulling together th at b ro ught abo ut order on the tra il and mutu;tl defe nse ;tnd security fo r the frontiersmen . 1949 N o longer is ours the ta sk of orga n izing l1undrcds o f Concstogas fu r tnc ove rland route.

Orga nized under the leadership of Mr. M iller and Mr. Little, the club has built its activity around a Speed Graphic and an enlarger, both made possible from money donated by previous graduating classes. Additional equipment was purchased from funds raised by a dance and from the sale of prints of school activities .. . Enthusiastic members h ave been pretty much in the "dark" this semester, working away in the developing room, whi ch was originally a storeroom in Mr. Miller's classroom . .. Three main purposes of the new club are : to acquire know-how through camera work and meetings centered aro und different ph ases of the photographic fi eld ; to give students an opportunity to make practical use of their h obby; and to take pictures for the annual, The Echoes, and school sale. CLIO. The Clio motto, "Not for self, but for all ," was really lived up to by its members, who worked to bring honor to the school and their society, not for personal glory . . .

A. R. winner of the good citizenship essay contest .. . To complete the year, the Delta Taus held their annual M other- Daughter banquet. DRAMA CLUB. M ore than 125 students are now members of the Drama Club, organized in the fall of '48. Under leadership of Mrs. Arlene Danielson Harding, the club has sponsored this year's Road Show, staged two literary society plays, the annual Christmas program, the junior and senior class plays, and assisted with the operetta. In D ecember they sponsored a dance called the "Bell Ball" ... M embers are now working toward a charter in the National Thespian Dramatic H onor Society for High Schools (better known as Thespians), which is the same type of organization for drama clubs as is Quill and Scroll for journalism students. ERO. Initiates of the Ero Literary Society will long remember the "cat" story as told by Joan Krause at the KOIL Point Picnic. And the food- remember? Enough and to spare ' ... The fall debate program was supported by M ;trie H ansen, a veteran debater, with new Eros, Gail Satterfi eld, N ancy W atson, and Renee N elson learning how to "resolve." ... "Good Night, Ladies," combined literary society play, found these Eros busily watching their cues: Jeannine Speight, Sue Swanson, M argie Jenkins, Janet Bartel, Jayne Allavie, Joan Krause, and Mary Castle. Marcia Gordon, student director, and Lois Brown were top Ero ti cket sellers, w ith the Eros as champions in society competition ... M argie Jenkins brought honor to h er society as a w inner in the Prose and Poetry finals ... Besides the initiation picnic, social functions included a Christmas party, a V alentine tea, and the traditional Mother-Senior banquet in M ay. HI-Y. This was a good year of accomplishment for the Hi-Y. The group sponsored an after-football dance, the proceeds of which were contributed to the N ational Children 's Fund.

All were looking fo r new opportunities in the W est. Life was turbulent, hard, yet these pioneers found that the plink of a guitar, the scrape of a fiddle, the snatch of a familiar song brought great solace and happiness to them in the difficult days of travel. 1949 N owad;tys, music may be had fo r the asking. W e flip a phonogr;tph switch or spin a radio dial and it's there : symph ony or cowboy song. M ore satisfying is the music we create ourselves.

There in the magic of song and dance and pre· tending, they forgot the fortunes lost, the brawls and shootings, the growmg talk of lynch -law, the sweaty tangle of men and mules and oxen, the loneliness of working their claims . . . 1949 People have always liked make-believe. Just as those lonely miners enjoyed watching "Miss Fifi, " today we look forward to a movie, a musical, or a school play. W e remember the anxiety of our first "lead," and th e thrill of accomplishment aft er· wards. Since we all find self-exp ression or rec rea· tion in plays, th ey will continue to be in the fu · ture, as they have bee n in the past, one of our most popular choices of entertainment and education. 55 l ... .... ....L.......

H eading the story of romance and intrigue on ;1 lonely island off the coast of Maine were Gretchen Gunpbell, Del Ranney, Jerry Pierce, and Patricia H er· ring.

M any of these armies of the frontier were poorl y drill ed . They lacked discipline; they lacked unifo rms; they lacked weapons, depending on their long knives and rifles. But they did not lack that intrepid courage and purpose necessary for defense of the emigrant wagon trains rumbling through N ebraska, W yoming, and the Oregon territory. They were crude, those old armies of the W est, but they served their purpose well. R. D. T.

L's young men responded enthusiastically to everything from the new M -1 rifle to air flights and firing demonstrations. Following are highlights in the roundup of events: Rifle Team. Lynx sharpshooters covered 1500 miles in shooting rifle matches. That's real distance-as far as from here to Boston, and far in excess of any previous year's traveling ... Competing in the Camp Perry indoor matches at Booneville, Mo., A. L. placed second as a team .. . "Deadeye" Roger Miller tied for third in the annual rifle matches held throughout the Fifth Army twelve-state area. A . L.'s rifle team placed seventh. Flights. High grades meant high -flying for a group of cadets who earned those grades in map and aerial photo tests. A warded a two-hour flight in a C-47 over Iowa and N ebraska were Leonard Amato, Lawrence H ardegen, Bob B. Johnson, and Dave Olson. Military Ball. Presentation of Bill Wickman as lieutenant colonel and Janice Reese as honorary lieutenant colonel marked the thirtieth an nual Abraham Lincoln High School military ball at the A .

With long-awaited fanfare, officers and their ladies were revealed as they stepped through an arch formed by the legs of a giant cadet figure suspended from the ceiling .. . Colonel Wickman's staff officers and their ladies were Maj. Don Larsen, executive offi cer, and M aril yn Peterson ; and M aj. Fred Miller, adjutant, and M arilee Stemple. Firing Demonstration. Helping to celebrate Army Day, A pril 6, c;1dets piled into army trucks and rode out to a fi eld firin g range, where was demonstrated for them th e firin g of all weapons in the infantry regiment. Men from A . L. formed the weapon squad under Gene W oolhiser. New Equipment. The 1903 model rifle went the way of all obsolete equipment, was replaced by th e M -1. A ccording to those who know, this is the best semiautomatic rifle in the world . A s a result, A. L. cadets had in their hands the most up-to-date and effective weapon a soldier could possess.

The Lynx tasted victory in the season opener, defeating a highly-rated Creston team 13-0 in a hard-fought game. With H al M cKain scoring on an eight-yard run and W arren Barritt on a ten-yard sweep around end, the Lynx showed great promise for the remaining games. Omaha T ech presented a one-man scoring punch 111 Ray Novak and conquered the Lynx the following week, 14-0 . Warren Barritt looked good for the Lynx as they suffered their first defeat. Coming up against a highl y-favored Creighton Prep team, the fighting Lynx outplayed the Bluejays all the way but lost a heartbreaker 7-6. Lack of speed hampered the Lynx when touchdown-bound runners were pulled down from behind. A pass from D oug Lawson to Don Larsen scored the A. L. touchdown in the second quarter. Winning in the last twelve seconds on a pass from Kinart to Corbin, T. ]. defeated the Lynx 12-6 in a wellfo ught contest. M cKain scored the Lynx touchdown on a pass from Del Ranney. A. L. outfo ught Sioux City East in a scoring duel the next week, 26-20. After leading 13-0, the Lynx h ad to come from behind late in the game with McKain going over for the winning touchdown. Lawson's passing was the highlight of the Lynx scoring punch. The following week Jennings' boys made it two in a row with an impressive 20-0 win over Omaha Central. Scoring all three touchdowns in the first half, the Lynx flashed an all-around scoring attack. The entire team looked good with McKain going for two touchdowns and Lawson one. Trave lin a to Shenandoah the following weekend, "' the Lynx lost to the undefeated Mustangs, 19-7, on a cold, muddy, rain-swept fi eld . McKain scored the lone A. L. touchdown in the fourth quarter and Barritt the conversion . Gaining the biggest victory of . the season, the Lynx toppled T.]. in th e return match, 13-7 . Barritt set up the first A . L. score on a sixty-seven-yard run and Lawson carried the ball over from the two-ya rd marker. T. J. took the lead, 7-6, when Kinart scored on a quarterback sneak and then passed to Gibbons fo r the seve nth point. One minute later, Barritt raced twenty-two yards for the win - ning touchdown. Gibbons was T. ].'s main threat. Barritt and M cKinl ey in the b~tckfield and Hansen and Crookham in the line spearheaded the Lynx attack. First Row: Bryson .

L. this fall, such a combination got together to win the state Cross Country Run team championsh ip. The coach was Mr. Fee Chew, head track and w restling mentor at the Hilltop. The h eartless workouts h e directed really paid off in the meets at Iowa City. Chuck Whiteaker fi lled the spikes of the star that paced the team to victory. A mid-year senior, Chuck finished a stellar high school track ca reer by winning both the individual state championships in the mile and two-mile cross country runs, and copping first place in a mile and a h alf grind at Drake Stadium. T h e Michigan track coach saw Chuck perfo rm and had him running this spring under W olverine colors. Coach es and sports fa ns recogni:c White · aker as o ne of the greatest trackmen ever to come from Council Bluffs . Completing th e championship team were Dan Longnecker, Ber111 e Lainson, ;rnd Galen H assen. Bob Gree r, T ony Anthony, John M eye r, Jerry Kruge r, and N orman Kinney were underclass aspirants. Since workouts began in August before school opened, all hands were in good shape by the time of th e first meet on October 16. This meet was a mile team race h eld on the University of Iowa track at Iowa City. Chuck Whiteaker landed first place, fo llowed CHUCK WHITEAKER State Cross Country Champ by Dan Longnecker in fo urth , and Berni e Lainso n twenty-sixth in a field of more than fifty runners. On team totals A . L. wound up second out of 11 class AA schools. The next week Lynx leg- men ran against the Des Moines cinder athletes on th e Drake track. The hilltop team won the mi le and one-h alf contest with Whiteake r, Lai nson, Hassen, and Lon '.~n cc r in first, second, fourth , and seventh , respecti vely. On O ctober :;o, the distance crew aga in appea red 111 Iowa City, this time fo r the sta te Cross Country Run.

M eye r. \,V h itca kc r A11thu11 y £AS~f !£All Fight and determination characterized the A. L. '49 basketball squad. Coach Thurman Johnson, in his first yea r on the hilltop, was greeted by only two major lettermen, Doug Lawso n, a regular from last year, and Don Larsen, the "sixth man" of last yea r's team. A round these two boys, Coach Johnson built a tough, fast· breaking team, with Kenny W allace and Lawson at the forward posts, Roger H enderson at center, and Dave Lemen and Larsen at guards. Opening the season, the Lynx faced Iowa School fo r the Deaf, starring M ar vin Tuttle. The Lynx took off to a 5 3-48 victory. N ext came St. Francis, whom A. L. soundl y beat, 44-2 9. With Creighton Prep, always a topnotch Omaha squad, visiting the Hilltop, the Lynx went down to their first defeat, 40-24. T raveling then to Sioux City fo r a two-night stand, the Lynx split a pair with th e two tough Sioux City clubs, beating East, 30- 19, and losing to Central by a slim margin , 42-3 7. The H illtoppers visited Omaha Central th e next week and took home a well-earned victory, 38-32. But up agai nst the A . L. alumni, Johnson 's boys lost to the "ol' grads," 34-26. Up against their crosstown rivals, T. ]., next, the Hill toppers lost to the highl y-rated Jeffs, 5 4-38. The foll owin g week the Lynx moved ove r to Omaha T ech and lost in a fast and furious game, 28-24. Sioux City Central visited Council Bluffs fo r their second game w ith th e Lynx the next week. In one of th e most thrilling games eve r played o n the Hilltop boards, the Lynx lost a heart breaker, 46-45. With th e Lynx leading, 45 -44, Sioux City came through in the last Len seconds with a desperation shot that was good. Johnso n's boys broke their losing streak the next week by clipping Sioux City East, 46-3 7, and th en again lost to T ech the fo llowing weekend, 57 -48. Faci ng two more tough ones the fo llowing two weeks, th e Hilltoppers went down fo r the second time before T.J., 44-32 and Lincoln Central, 47-H. Henderson, season 's high-scorer, pots one for the Lynx The Lynx th en split th eir last two regularly-scheduled games of the season by beating Omaha Central, 56- 4 7, and losin g to Creighton Prep, 5 1-41 . Ente rin g tournament play, the Lynx w..::re paired g<tin st T.J. fo r th e District clnmpionshi p. Surprising th e Yel l ow Jackets, the elope sheets, and most pre-game predi ctors, the smooth A .L. team knocked off the Jeffs, 50-7'6. N ext was the sub-state, and again assuming the underdog role, the Lynx blasted a highly-favored W ebster City crew, 48- 47'. Playing in th e fin als of th e sub-state, three nights later, the fi ghting Lynx lost to a tough Fort Dodge team, 44-42, as a late A.L. rally fell short. Ending their basketball careers at A .L. this year we re Don Larsen, Roge r H enderson, Kenny W allace, Don N ymann , Rolland Johnson, T om Cambron, Bob H ansen, and Chuck Larsen.

These projects netted the Lettermen enough to pay fo r the ;mnual football banquet, basketball and wrestlin;:; banquet, and start the football clock fund rolling with a clumtion of one hundred dollars.

ROBERT BROWN MARGARET HEND ERSON and THE SCHOOL IN ITS PRESENT HILLTOP LOCATION A cornerstone . .. and a milestone This is the cornerstone oF Abraham Lincoln High School. Into the hollow of the stone were placer\ the mementos of a bygone day. And into it were placed, too, the dreams of Council Bluffs citizens who wanted a better school and schooling for their children. Upon this same stone were built classrooms and laboratories, the auditorium and the library. And these activity centers h ave themselves become cornerstones- the cornerstones of character. Discriminating thought, social participation, and r esponsible citizenship are built upon them. The cornerstone is now half a century old, yet Abraham Lincoln High School can never be old. For, in an ancient or a new building, it is dedicated to an ag:less service- that of educating young men and women. . . ' t '' .. . • · ::beJicaleJ lo . .' .

O ri ginal ca pitalizatio n a nd se ntence structure h ave bee n retain ed . "The experience of our High School shows the untruth of th e adage that 'A rolling stone ga thers no moss.· W e find that much of its time has been spent in rolling up hill and down hill, across the roaring Indian Creek. A s many of the older inhabitants will r emember, the High School was organized in the fall of 1868 in the Pierce stree t building, the Superintendent and one assistant teacher hearing all the classes. In the fall o f 1869, they wandered down to the old W ashington avenue building. During that year the present High School building was being erected . . . The first graduating class, consisti ng of two boys and two girls, appeared before the publi c in 187 1 ... When the High School was organized a three-yea r course was planned. A s there were only two te<tchers there was rea lly time fo r 'Little Latin and no G reek.' N o work was done in the Sciences, there bei ng no apparatus. H ence the course was devoted chiefl y to M athematics and English ... A number of changes h ave l::ccn made since that time. N ow, fi ve courses are o ffered , namely: Classical, Latin Scientific, Ge rman Scientific, English, and Business. " - Quoted from the Senior C lass An nual of 1899. "Liter the (h igh school) classes were moved to the 13loomer School where they stayed fo r two yea rs. In 1880 school was moved to the new W ashington A venue building and in 1890 fo und the classes back on the hill w here the enrollment continued to grow until the grade school classes were fo rced out and in 1900 the high school on Bluff Stree t was necessary. " - Q uoted from M arch 3, 192 1, issue of The Echoes. Top: "The present high school (on Bluff Street) was commenced in October, 1900, and the following O ctober occurred the formal dedication of the building complete. It is built along classic lines, simply but most efficiently arranged ... There are twenty-four rooms in use, including the principal's and the city superintendent's offices, and the capacity of the building is six hundred . .. Instead of a class of fo ur as the first to graduate, today there are sixty-four to leave the present school." - Quoted from Council Bluffs High School Annual of 1905. "During the next few yea rs the enrollment grew by leaps and bounds, so that in 1913 an addition was necessary. With the addition built, the rooms accommodated 800 students. The addition consisted of about twelve rooms, including a manual training and domestic science department and rooms fo r the literary societies."- Quoted from M arch 3, 192 1, issue of The Echoes. Crowded conditions preceding and following W orld W ar I resulted in three shifts of classes. During 191 2- 1913 and again in the early twenties, school classes r an from eight o'clock in the morning until fo ur o'clock in the afternoon ... Continued overcrowding led to the erection of Thomas Jefferson High School in 1921. In that same year, the name Council Bluffs High School was replaced by Lincoln High in the masthead of The Echoes and by Abraham Lincoln High School on the title-pages of the yearbooks. Since 192 3 the name Abraham Lincoln High School has been used to distinguish the old Council Bluffs High School from the newer building . . . The fin al unit of the school, the gymnasium, with band and drill rooms, was completed in I ?26. Bloomer Junior High School now accommodates nearly all of the freshmen.- Paraphrased from the 1931 Crimson and Blue. A.

Abraham Lincoln High School has traveled from the cornerstone of 1900 to the crossroads of the present. What is its future? Will the aging building some day be replaced by a great diversified school catering to the broader needs of all students? Actually m the relative .scheme of things, the building itself is unimportant. A one-room school can nurture t hat in men which makes them great thinkers, writers, artists, musicians, homemakers, scientists, doctors, lawyers, mechanics, philosophers, educators- great citizens. The cornerstone of Abraham Lincoln High School and of all education is the students themselves. On you, then, the student, depends much, for you are the future of this school.

This building was Pottawattamie County's first courthouse. It was built by Orson Hyde, Mormon leader, and known as Hyde's hall. Located where the Levin home now stands at 2 20 South First Street, it was purchased by the county October 12, 1849, for $800 and used as a courthouse until October 6, 1857. Here is the First Congregational Church in Council Bluffs, founded in 1854 by Rev. G. G. Rice. Reverend Rice persuaded two sisters, Sarah and Lucy Rockwood, to come here and operate a school in the church building , the log cabin shown at right. On the left was the parsonage. Both buildings were located on Broadway, just below G len Avenue. Looking west on Broadway in 185'1. While what is now Main Street was p lowed up in cornfidds ed u- (·ation was being carried on a long H yde Street'. now known as First Street, but then the main thorou,i;hfa re of the town . D uring the early fi fties, p riva te schools were taught in dance ha lls, thea ters, and real schoolhouses, and at one time even in the o ld log courthouse. - Excerpt from 1904 annua l.

Let me call up in your minds that select group of sixteen teachers and four hundred lively boys ancl girls who came with me from the old 'Castle on the Hill' to take possession of the 'brand new Bluff Street Building,' and let the senior class of that year join me in wishing for you in the next fifty years as much fun and happiness, and as interesting a world to live in, as it has been our privilege to enjoy .. . "The little school I left in 1905 h as outgrown its walls and expanded far beyond the dreams of those who planned the housing of it. I have watched with growing pride the triumphs of its students, of the skilled teachers leading them in exploring subjects unknown in high schoo ls of my day. I have looked with paternal approval upon those two master principals, Gerald Kirn and Theron Stuelke, who have guided the eager life in Abraham Lincoln for a generation. And now I can say to the seniors of 195 0: 'Fortunate Youth! Your fine old town and Abraham Lincoln High School have made it possible for you to develop into the kind of men and women free nations must have if, through the years, they are to remain free.'"

L. students, alumni, facu lty, and administra tion, 1950 has a double significance. It is our fifti eth birthday, as we ll as the golden anniversary of the twentieth century. Yes, this school in its present structure has reached the ripe old age of half a century. If by some magic the school could talk, what amazing accounts it would tell us of fun and study and successful preparation for life and of illustrious alumni. "Fifty yea rs. That is old for a building. But buildings are only one means to an end, for a high school must be judged by the way it functions rather than by its outward appearance. We at A .

W e cherish the memories of fifty golden years in this building, and we hope and pray that th rough the youth of th e future we may have another fifty golden years ahead. " Theron R.

Over the school stage is this motto: "Ye Come to Learn - Go Forth to Serve." H ere at A. L., we find that we can "go forth to serve" through many service activities. The Student Council, serving the individual home rooms, sponsors worthwhile school projects. Twelve council members are seen inspecting their latest project, new footlights and an apron for the auditorium stage. At Open House students of the National Honor Society serve as guides. D erelle Blumer and Sarah Stupfell show their parents the elaborate Road Show set. The Junior Red Cross serves the school and community in countless ways; one the home rooms delight most in is that of delivering Christmas baskets to needy fami lies, whose names are supplied by the J. R. C. Each semester student librarians aid Miss Lucy Miller in the routine jobs of the library. Doris Jean Franke is shown signing passes; Shirley Falk stamps a book for Janele Atherton, while Kathleen Steffensen checks through the book card file. Of community service is the Y-Teen Christmas party for underprivileged children. The girls dig into their own pockets for gifts and toys, such as those being wrapped by Janice Crisman, Betty Bruhn, Dorothy Madsen, Juliann Walker, D oris Jean Franke, and Barbara N eilsen.

No more assig nments, no more tests, no more seventh periods. Your high school days are over. These last four years of schooling have been rough in spots, but down deep you know you've enjoyed every minute of them. Your pencil lags and there is a funny feeling in the pit of your stonuch. This is the end of a way of life. An open \vorld faces you and it's yours to conquer. You feel kind of scared , for you now know the real assignments, the real tests are ahead of you . Every day will bring its problems, and there won't be a teacher a round to help you. Graduation is the end , you've been telling yo urself. The end , did you say / It's on ly the beginning .

Things in preceding years all seem to be important, but when you 're a senior you enjoy everything more because you know that it is your last chance for many activities- class elections, plays, footba ll and b asketball games, after-game dances, the Soc-H op, Military Ball, the Senior Day picnic, the Prom, and all the other things that go to make a senior's life complete . School life fli es by, and sooner than you think, every senior is tuning up for "The Pilgrim's Chorus" and reaching out for the fulfillment of four years' work and fun- the diploma. Montage.

But in the winter of 1901 , the "Hig h School Echoes," representing the entire school , appeared . A small magaz ine-size pape r, it was published every two weeks. Financial difficulti es caused the paper to be changed to a monthly publi cation. Howeve r, within a few pros perous yea rs it was enl arged from twelve to sixteen pages and came out every two weeks. Jn l 920 , the pages decreased to four, the columns increased to fi ve, and instead of bi-monthly publication The Echoes was issued every Thursday . Final change in size came in 19 3 7 when the present four-page, seven column paper was introduced. A charter member of Quill and Scroll , The Echoes is a member of the Iowa High School Press Assoc iation and the N ational Hig h School Press Association . Honors for The Echoes include the Intern at ional Honor Aw ard , l l)4 0- l949, the Quill and Scroll " A" Honor Award , and medal wi nners in the Quill and Scroll N ational Group Contests. Standing out among the advise rs responsible for the success of The Echoes are Jennie G. Rice, H azel Long, Marg uerite l -· ·! c i· and H Arthur Lee.

Six by nine inches in size with forty pages, it was more pamphlet than book. Graduating seniors were photog raphed as a g rou p on the school steps. The next year, a book with a hard cove r was prod uced. Then, yea r after year, each annual became less a cl ass book and more a yea rbook portraying the activities of all students. In 1930, the Crimson and Blue had over two hundred pages, but with the depression and World War II, it almost returned to the pamphlet stage of its beg inning years. 47 Things picked up after the war, howeve r, and in 1947 the first stiff-cove red annual since 1942 was published . T he 1949 yea rbook introduced a much larger format , desig ned to provide space for more attract ive layouts. Celebrating the school's golden annive rsary, the 1950 ed ition is the largest book in fifty-three years of publication , with hundreds of pictures used in contrast to the first annual's total of six pictures. Unsung advisers, whose work made progress and improvement a reality, include Mabel Brisley, Margaret Henderson , Mary Wall ace, and Eleanor Baptist. In 1947, after twe lve yea rs of service and fin e annuals, Miss Baptist reli nq uished T he Crimson and Blue to Robert Brown. Both past and present yearbooks have won First Class hono r ratin as from the N ational Scholastic Press Association . b £ l ~ f CRIMSON AND BLUE EDITORIAL STAFF First Row: Hand, Smith, Norgard, Gordon, Stupfell, Campbell Second Row: Pierce, Markwell, Schultz, Hoff, Andersen, Jensen, Anthony, Blumer Third Row: Lake, Ranney, Briggs, Greenlee, Fitch, Green, Ratekin, Sieck, Lawson CRIMSON AND BLUE BUSINESS STAFF first Row: Gall, Pfe iffer, McKee, Edwards, Cleaveland Second Row: ford , Kja r, Olson, Datesman, Molga rd , Byers 48 DERELLE BLU/V!ER Edi1or-i11-Chief SHERMAN ANTHONY Executive Editor J OAN EDWA S Business Ma11<1ger To.MOLSON Advertisi111< <111a.~er CRIMSON AND BLUE EDITORIAL STAFF EDITOR-IN-CH IEF E XECUTIV E EDITOR THEME EDITORS ORGAN IZ ATIO NS EDITOR PUBLICATIONS EDITOR PLAY EDITORS ADMINISTRATION EDITOR D ERELLE BLUMER SHERMAN ANTHONY JOANNE PIERCE, SHIRLEY MARKW ELL SARAH STUPF ELL PHYLLIS SCHULTZ PEGGY JENSEN.

Forerunner of A. L., Council Bluffs High School jo ined the I. S. H. S. A. A. in 1897 and has been a member ever since. Baseball was introduced in 1899 and in 1903 basketball was started, but p lay was hampered by the low ceiling of the gym, our present cafeteri a. Mr. W. C. Bleamaster came to the school in 1908 to be the first paid coach in the history of the school. His football team won the Iowa State Championsh ip. Nineteen hund red and sixteen was a great year with Pusey McGee named first team all-state guarterback, and with the basketba ll team taking third in the state basketball tournament. Under the direction of C. E. " Dutch" White, present track coach at Omaha Tech, the Hilltop boys in 191 9-20 enjoyed their first undefeated football season and were runners-up in the state basketball tournament. In 1925 the football field was bu ilt on the site of the old high school. The present gym was constructed in 1926. Making good use of the new field , Gordon Clifton set the school pole vault record of 12'2% " in 1926. Myrll Goecker and "Babe" Mou lton wen t to Iowa City in 1929 and brought back the high school hurdl e record and first place in the mile run. In 1932, Coach Fee Chew revived interscholasti c wrestling, which was orig inally started in 1905. Nineteen hundred and thirty-three went down as one of the biggest yea rs in A. L. sports history.

Langston Parks and Dick Shaw made the first team all-state, and Matt Walsh drew second honors. A new coach and a new stad ium came together in 1936. Roy Lawson took over the head coaching duties, remaini-ng until 1947. Warren Radtke wrote his name in the sky in 1938 by plac ing first team all-state in basketball and setting the school record in the 100 and 220 yard dashes. A. 1. had a state champion in 'vrestling in 1940 when Grant Hunter brought home the title for the first time in the school's history. Lead by the "ROG" line- D on Radtke, Art O 'N eill, and "Pump" Gibler- the Lynx took the intercity in 1942 for the first time. T he Lynx captured the titl e again in 1946. In 1948 Hughes Wilcox was the big name in basketball and track. In 1949 the football and basketball teams respectively came under the direction of coaches Vic Jennings and Thurman Johnson. Johnson's boys lost to Fort Dodge in the sub-state by only two points. T he harriers took first place in the cross country track meet at Iowa City w ith Ch uck Whiteaker capturing the two-mile crown. In this brief sports summary, mention of many star names and top honors has been sacrificed to limited space. But A.

Smith, D ra per ' ' ' ' ' 54 -1 ' I Going into the second season under the watchful eye of Coach Vic Jennings, the Lynx g ridmen chalked up a season's record of three wins and six losses. Starting out on the right foot, the team squeezed by the Creston Panthers in a wide-open contest, 27-26. Dave Lemen led the scoring parade with 21 markers. Once more Ray Novak was too much to handle, as Omaha Tech, the Intercity champs, whitewashed the Lynx, 28-0. A. L. did hold Tech to one of its lowest scores during the season, however. Two long runs by Phil Legg io and Dave Lemen featured the first A. L.-T. J. game as the boys in the Crimson and Blue left the fi eld with a 13-6 victory. The hope of a successfu l season took a seve re setback as the B.enson Bunnies, led by Dick Westin , stopped the Lynx 24-0 on Kirn Field. Seeking revenge for last year's close defeat by Creighton Prep, the determined men from the Hilltop traveled across the river only to receive an astounding 34-7 defeat. Still trying to get back into the win column, the Lynx met a heavy and powerful Sioux City East team on the Black Raiders' fi eld . The Lynx, by use of their passes, were Gerdeman Dri ves for That Extra Yard Against Omaha Central. able to move up and down the field at will, but were not able to pull a victory from the contest. The fin al score was 35-6. N ever g 1vmg up, the boys from A. L. came back to overpower Omaha Central, 13-6. Just ten plays elapsed before Dave Lemen plowed over for his thirty-third point of the season. On a pass from Lemen to Schuman the Lynx tallied another six points and D ave McKinley kicked the extra point. In what was the best defensive game of the year, the Lynx held highly-favored Shenandoah, wi nners of the Hawkeye Seven Conference, to a 6-0 score. The rough, hard- charging Lynx were impreg nable on defense, but they could not get their offensive weapon into gea r. The only score came late in the second period on an end around play. A. L. Seniors played the last game of their high school ca reer aga inst their crosstown rivals, T. J., in an 18-6 loss. Although the game was an evenly-fought contest, the Lynx could neve r recover from an early touchdown by T. J.

The hoopsters breezed past St. Francis 53-36, beat Iowa School for the Deaf 37-28, and handed Red Oak a 43-32 setback. The real test was found in the first intercity game with last year's champs, Creighton Prep. And what a test it was. The Lynx, with three games' experience behind them, squeezed out a 24-2 3 victory in a thrilling game on the Prep floor. Sporting a 4-0 record, the team traveled to Sioux City to meet the undefeated Central M aroons. In a wild and high scoring game, the Lynx were handed their first setback of the season to the tune of 51-48. The next night saw the tables reversed as the basketeers downed Sioux City East in a low-scoring 34-30 contest. Omaha Central provided little opposition as the boys in the Crimson and Blue came out on the top end of a 52-32 score. With a 6-1 record, the team was g iven an invitation to play Des Moines East in a special game at the Iowa Coaching Clinic. East, the number one team in the state, had too much height as they handed the Lynx their second setback of the season in a 50-48 thriller. In a game that was close for three quarters, the Johnsonmen blanketed T. J., their crosstown rivals, and won going away by a 4 5-30 marg in. This victory set the stage for the Omaha Tech game, with the winner taki ng over first place in the Intercity League. However, the Lynx were not up to this game and Tech notched a convincing 54-3 3 win . The game schedu led with Sioux City Central was postponed to March 3 because of bad roads. After a week's layoff, the team met and defeated Sioux City East, 47-33, on our home boards. T he Lynx rece ived a severe blow when Bud Crowl, the 56 DA VE LEMEN ... a match for the big boys DOUG LAWSON . . . hard est worker on the floor team's high scorer, suffered a fractured foot and was thought to be lost for the season. Minus Crowl, the team gave Omaha Tech a hard battl e for the first half of their second meeting, but with Doug Lawson and John Meyer fouling out ea rly in the third period the Lynx were helplessly subdued, 70-47. Continuing their slump the Lynx lost a 61-46 contest to a red-hot Thomas Jefferson quintet in a return engagement. The next week a tall but slow Lincoln team came to the hilltop only to be handed a 45 -36 setback. Journeying across the river, A. L. was defeated 40-29 by a much-improved Omaha Central squad. Although apparently in improved condition , the Lynx five dropped their final intercity game to Creighton Prep, 48-42 , on the hilltop floor. In the final game of the season a strong Sioux City Central five, winners of the Missouri Valley Conference, fell before the fast-bre aking A. L. five by a 58-5 4 score. In what has been correctly labeled the " jinx game" of the . seas~n, the de.termined boys from the hill top, with spmts raised by their recent victory over Siou x City Central, handed Thomas Jefferson an astounding 64-26 defeat to gain a berth in the Sub-State Tournament. Being held to a 23-23 deadlock at half-time, the Lynx, led by Bud Crowl, completely out-scored, out-ran, an d out-played the Yellowjackets to cinch the Qistrict titl e for the second stra ig ht season. Continuing their fast break style of basketball, the Lynx crew stopped Ames 55-47 to advance to the Sub-State finals. For the second stra ight year in a row, the Lynx ran out of gas one game away from the state tournament. Sioux City Central turned the tri ck this year by defeatinn the Lynx 54-4 1 in the Morningside gym. Lack of he ig li'; and the close officiating hurt the Lynx cause as Bu d Crowl fo ul ed out early in the second quarter.

Under the able coaching of Fee Chew and Assistant Coach Vernon Doty, A. L's wrestlers emerged as Missouri Valley champions and placed fourth and third respectively in the North Invitational and District Meets. Failing to win one dual match all season, the matmen turned in one of the most spectacular upsets in a long time. With determination and stamina, A. L., the all-season underdogs, broke into the light to place themselves as Missouri Valley champs. The winners were : Frank Diblasi, 105; Don Van Seay, 118; Tom Fischer, 124; and Dave McKinley, 155. Second-place honors went to Del Ranney, 145 ; and Gene Woolhiser, 165. District meet this year was held at N ewton and the state meet at Mason City.

Coach Fee Chew had the boys working out early in the season and had one of the largest cross-country crews in the history of the school. The first meet was at Des Moines, and the Lynx placed third behind Des Moines North and Des Moines East. The next week the harriers traveled to Iowa City for the state mile team race. Just being nosed out of first place by Des Moines East, the Lynx placed second in a field of fifteen. Bernie Lainson, Galen Hassen, and Loren Ratekin ran in the money for the Lynx. Lainson placed second , Hassen was sixth, and Ratekin fourteenth. Two weeks later the runners traveled to Iowa City for the cross-country team race over a two-mile course.

During the 1949-50 season, the Lettermen's Club has been busy with financial matters. It has paid for and maintained the concession 'stand at Kirn Field, rented one popcorn machine, purchased another, and financed and planned all the athletic banquets. The dub has also aided the school in many other ways, such as helping with the basketball tournaments. Members of A. L's huge Pep Club-dressed m their white blouses, navy blue skirts, and white hats-cheer and encourage the team to win. The dub, with a membership of 117 g irls, holds meetings every other W ednesday to go over new yells and plan dances, skits, and "extra programs" given from time to time. Among these "extras" each year are the presentation of corsages to mothers of the basketball team, and presentation of the Pep Club "Pin-up Boy." Chosen as "Pin-up Boy" this year was Dave Lemen.

Overhead lig hts lower in the gym, and "spots" and " floods" glow as it's curtains-up on the 1950 gym pageant. The performers go throug h their acts smoothly, expertly; the audience laughs uproariously at the changes and contrasts during the past fifty years. Crowds fi le out, pronouncing it the " best pageant yet." And May 5 fades into memory. It sounds so easy. But it isn 't, for gym pageants are made, not born. First, Mrs. CleoJa Mansfield, gym rnstructor, must think up a theme for the g iant pageant. In 1948, the firsf pageant was a dramatization of world peace and union. In 1949, the very successful " Lynx Jynx" bu ilt on favo rite superstitions, was presented. This year, A. L 's golden an nive rsary offered golden possibilities. N ext, the general theme must be carried out through acts. In add ition to the gym classes, supporting help must be enlisted in other departments of the school - instrumental, vocal, dramatics, and art. T hen there is the double headache of props and costumes.

And they do. By this time Mrs. Mansfield's job has taken on the magnitude of a military commander's. Everything and everybody must be in the right place at the right time. And, as with more than one military campaign, what looks to be' a rout settles down after a bedlam of practices and dress rehearsals into an orderly, well-organized series of acts.

Scenes from "Now 'n Then" are shown on page 64, and from the "Lynx Jynx" on page 65. Happy A.L. fans scramble for a seat on the return trip from Des Moines.

Pinafore, " presented in 1906 by the senior class. In 1909 an ambitious senior class play was "Der Neffe als Onkel," translated from the German and given at the old Nicholas Theater, now the Liberty. In 191 4 the first high school cadet play was produced. "Jeanne D'Arc" was presented in 1918, feat-uring the largest cast in the school's history. At one time there were one hundred and twenty people on the stage. From 1919-1942 each of the girls' and boys' literary societies put on a play, and the junior and senior classes each produced a play annually. The ROTC is credited with having orig in ated the first Road Show. From 1920-1923, the Road Shows were great hits, even traveling to neighboring towns, but were discontinued until 1930. In the past fifty years there have been several repeat performances. "It Pays to Advertise" was produced first in 19 18 and again in 1924; "Clarence," by Booth Tarkington, in 1922 and 1940; and "Tom Sawyer," in 19 38 and 1947. In the early 1900's, Shakespeare and German and French translations were the perennial favorites. From the twenties through the forties, play titles indicate a preference for more varied fare , rang ing all the way from the sentimental "Daddy Long Legs" of 1923 to the tragic fantasy, "Death Takes a Holiday," in 194 1. As there are no boys' li terary societies today, the g irls' literary societies combine to g ive two plays a year. Together with the junior and senior class play groups, they carry on the high thespian tradition established in the past by such A. L. coaches as Leota Hatswell, Lucy Jane Robinson Baird, Fred Morrow, Ruth Castle, Ruth Tamisiea, and Mary Ellen M cCabe.

Throug h the combined efforts of the music and speech departments, the true spirit of Christmas was felt in the hearts of all students. Played by the band, fam iliar carols like "H ark the Herald Angels Sing" and "O Little Town of Bethlehem" cou ld be heard as the students filed into the gymnasium. After the students were seated, the speech department of Abraham Lincoln Hig h School presented the Christmas play, entitled "No Room at the Inn." The play told the story of Christ's birth - familiar to everybody - but one that becomes more beautiful as it is repeated . The cast included Leonard A1n a t o, D enn1· s M ourer Pl ·11 · , i1 1p Sherbond y, Eldon Erickson, Jerry Pierce, Joyce Andersen, Gene Scott, Don Taylor, Henry Laub, Sam Tramonte, Phili p Leggio, Harlan Price, Dick Clifton, and Claude Antill. Changing from ti · . . ie more senous vem to the lighthearted, the chorus sang Fred Waring 's arrangement of .. 'Twas The N ig ht Before Christmas," complete with jing le bells and whistles.

Its purpose is to furnish an experimental activity for those who wish to participate in any of the speech arts. Students earn points toward Thespian membership through the Drama Club.

Ucal mu6ic 1903-1950 ~fu ic can never fail in its appeal at ALHS if the love of smgmg contmues to be as popular in the future as it has been in the past. 'In 1910, the Delta Taus organized their own personal glee club, and '12 boasts of the first really successful boys' glee. Gilbert and Sullivan's "H. M. S. Pinafore" was produced by the combined glee clubs in 19 13. With their profits, they bought the school a Victrola. In 1921 , a novice g roup of g irls organ ized the Merry Glees .. "Bulbul," an operetta, and the dedication of Tee Jay H 1g h School were two outstanding prog rams featuring g irls' and boys' glees in 1922. A. L 's Jirst opera was "The Bohemian Girl," presented by the glee clubs in 1926. N_i neteen twenty-n ine brought to Council Bluffs for the first tune the Southwestern Iowa District Music Contest. In 1933 the boys' quartet took lirst place in the state contest, with all large sing ing g roups winning first place in the district contest. And it has since been a tradition for A. L.'s music g roups to walk off with hig h honors. T he last tl~ ree years have yielded two popular operettas - "The Mamage of N annette" and "Pickles"- and the highly successful opera, "Martha." Since the beginning of vocal music at A. L. , there have been many helpful teachers, but well-remembered in the long future w ill be the names of instructors like . Ang ie Middleton, Kathleen Shaw Miller, and the present director, Viola Bichel. Band organ ized in 19 18 . . A $ 500 appropriation from the school boa rd meant the beginn ing of band music at A. L This faded picture from the 19 19 annual shows the early band. Y.n6lrumental mu6ic 1915-19 50 First of the instrumental groups to be organized at Abraham Lincoln was the orchestra during the fall semester of 191 5 and under the direction of Claud Coyle. Three years later, thanks to a five-hundred-dollar appropriation, the band was formed. Both organizations found immediate and ample interest at A. 1. W ith careful instruction under directors Claud Coyle, Lee M. Lockhart, Willibald Nowak, and Rudolph Seidl, the band and orchestra have served importantly in school and civic activities. In contest work, both have nationally distinguished themselves against talented competition at large contests. At Chicago in 1923, the band placed third in the national contest; and in 1935 , the orchestra received high rating in the national contest at Mad ison, Wisconsin. N otable activities of the orchestra also included a concert March 6, 1938, at Joslyn Memorial, and a performance in 1939 on a nation-wide hooku p, under auspices of the N ational Music Educators Conference Members of the band and orchestra have established in the past a high standa rd of music at Abraham Lincoln 1-li oh School, a sta~da rd of excellence conti nu ing under the lead;rship of the new director, Harry H. il t~n .

Under the direction of Mrs. Viola Bichel and accompanied by Joan Mynster, this favorite opera of many generations won a new round of applause from A. L. audiences. The story, as familiar as the music, concerns Lady Harriet, w ho is bored with court life. She and her companion , Nancy, disguise themselves as country girls, go to the fair, and as a joke hire out as maids to Plunkett and Lionel. To their surprise, the girls discover them- ~clves bound by law. This all leads to excitement, love, adventure, and beautiful songs by the leads and the chorur.

Origin al page r eprod uced from 1904 annua l. THE CADETS 1892-1 9 19 M il itary instruction beg an in the Council Bluffs school system with the establishment of the Council Bluffs High School Cadet Corps Company in 1892. The unit was unique in that it was the only cadet company in the nation whose membership was entirely voluntary. Instruction was g iven by qualifyin g cadets and officers of the local N ational Guard garrison. In 1899 it was necessary to expand the company into a battalion , but interest lagged and the unit was reduced to a company. In 1903 all prev ious records of enrollment were surpassed and the battalion was reestablished. Inte rest increased as the cadets took a larger part in school activities, sponsoring dances, athlet ic events, and plays. CADET CORPS BECOMES ROTC 19 19-1 950 The s1:mester of 19 18-1 9 saw two great changes in the battalion's administration . At the beginning of the fall term of 19 18 military instruction was made compulsory, and on April 28, 19 19, the cadets were made a unit of the Jun ior Rese r\'e Office rs Training Corps of the United States Army. This .transition brought with it the benefits of government eq uipment,. uniforms, and mstructors from the regu lar army. Instruct.ion , mcreased from one hour to three hours weekly, consisted of baste dnlls for unde rclassmen and theo retical tacti cs for the seniors. The first annual military ball was held in 192 3; in the Cadet gray has been rep laced by .W orld W ar I kh ~ki. Familiar sig ht in 1921 was chok ing co llars and spiral arou ncl Puttees that d1Jn t stay wrapped around. \vra p-. same year a drum and bug le corps was organized . At this time two battalions were formed consistin g of three companies each. The detachment was sever~ ! times named honor schoc l. By 193 0 it had won this rating seven times. The ROTC continued to grow, and in 1939 there was a reco rd-break ing en rollment of 525 . Under the present P. M . S. &:. T. , Maj. Robert F. Bayard, the trend has been to have the cadets gai n instruction as much as possible throug h actual expe rience. This new policy and its expansion will help make possible a larger and more successful ROTC detachment at Abraham Lincoln. 5568 po ints p laced A. L.

Qualified cadets were then issued uniforms and initiated into the routine of the military. Four companies were organized in place of the customary fi ve, each company consisting of three platoons. Fundamentals of close-order drill occupied the ROTC d uring the mild fa ll weather. When old man winter forced the cadets into the classroom, courses in map reading, weapon study, military organiz ation, and tactics were presented.

Thalian debate teams, composed of D erelle Blumer, Betty Christensen , Barbara Hand, and Pat Jasper, displayed an excellent quality of log ic and delivery. An unusual number of contestants participated in Prose and Poetry preliminaries, and two members, Derelle Blumer and Veronica Silverstrand, represented Thalian in the finals. Work on the Extemporaneous Contest prog ressed with fine enthusiasm. Marian Leaders, Jeanette Thomas, and Valera Jepson defended Thalian laurels in extempo semi-finals. The climax of one of the most interesting and profitable years was the play, " Little Women," g iven with the Ero and Omega societies. In May the annual Mother-Daughter Banquet brought activities to a satisfying close. Gro The informal initiation of new members started the year off in full swing fo r the Eros. Activity continued with Joanne Pierce, Beverly Blackwell, and Renee N elsen representing the society in the Inte rsociety D ebate. Beverly and Joanne pl aced second in the debates, and Beverly further honored her society by be ing selected the best debater in the program. Ero Prose and Poetry fin alists were Etta Belle Teale, Beverl y 13Iackwell, Phyllis M alony and Sue Swanson, with Beverly and Phyllis winning first and third places respectively. The Eros, in cooperation with the Thalians and Omegas, g ave the del ig htful play, "Little Women." Social functions included a Christmas party, complete with a v isit from Santa Claus, a Valentine tea, and the annual Mother-Senicr Banquet in April. A. L 's golden anniversary year was action-fill ed for the Omegas. Jacqueline Collins and Donna D avie represented the Omega society in the Intersoc iety D ebate. Club members participated in Prose and Poetry, with Karen rson nd Kathryn McVitty as fin alists. On April 13 and 15, the Omega, T halian, and Ero literary societies presented "Little Women" as their play. Omegas held their annual tea for the Mothers in the spring when awards were g iven to outstanding g irls.

The Alphas have taken an important part in school activities during the year. Our debaters were Betty Bruhn and Joelle W ahl. In the Prose and Poetry fi nals was Mary Alice MacLafferty, who placed fi rst in a five-state tourney. Joan Mynster, the accompanist for many of the school's musical productions, represented Abraham Lincoln in the D . A. R. contest. Space prohibits naming those in the Road Show and the opera "Martha." LaVonne Cleaveland and Pamela Magarrell were cast in "Don't Take My Penny." One of the highl ights of the year is the annual banquet honoring seniors and mothers. Although several members will be lost by g raduation, the Alphas will continue their tradition of supporting not only the activities of the society, but also the activities of the school. The Cli? motto_ is "Not fo r. self, but fo r all," and every member stnves to live up to this motto by working to bring honor to tl~ e soc1e_ty and to_ the school. Clio activities began this year with the mformal 111 1t1ation of new members. Doris Andersen an. d Jan ice Bland were football quee tt d t . S .

Delta Tau, too, celebrates its golden anniversary this year. At the _turn of . the century, a g irls' debating society was organized at A. L. and, in time, christened Delta Tau. Miss Jenn ie G. Rice was its fi rst sponsor. Fifty years have brought many changes in the make-up and purposes of th is organization, but that Delta Taus can still debate is evidenced by their winn ing the intersociety tournament this year and fu rnishing two of the lead ing debaters on the varsity squad , Janet Sig ler and Sylvia Sicrsbeck. Sylvia Djurdjevich, Patricia H erring, Evonne B?yer, and Phyllis Schultz had roles in the tri-society play, " Don 't T ake My Penny," and Delta Tau was proud to have fu rnished both the Honorary_ Lt. Colonel, Shirley A llred , and the Football Queen, JoAnn O 'Brien. The most important social event of the year was the dmner g iven in May in honor of the graduating Delta seniors and the mothers of all the members of Delta T au. The golden anniversary provided the motif of the banc1uet.

The two consuls alternate in presiding at the meetings. A typical program of the year consists of piano solos, a vocal solo, and a quartette. The Christmas program provides fun and gifts for all. Members held a very successful candy sale this spring to help finance the club picture in the yearbook. The Spanish Club was happy to welcome back Miss Lois Delk as its sponsor when she rejoined the Abraham Lincoln faculty after a year's leave of absence. Under her leadership, the club enjoyed many activities. The Christmas Party featured the traditional pinata with its sweet treats. The gift exchange was accompanied by the festive cascarones. One The Retail Sales Club is composed of Distributive Education students who arc employed part-time in retail stores, thus giving the students an opportunity to secure practical experience in their chosen vocations. Sponsored by Mr. Fee Chew, coordinator of Distributive Education, the club has carried through its work this year with great enthusiasm. of the highlights for club members was the January Spanish fiesta Dance. Programs featured the Latin-American arts. To further increase interest in the Spanish-speaking countries, the club was privileged to see Peruvian movies taken by Mr. Kaltenborn. A party closed an interesting and a profitable year. A play entitled "Ten Try, But Two Are Chosen" was presented January 27 under direction of Mrs. Arlene D anielson Harding. One of the highlights of many worthwhile activities was that of club members entertaining their employers at a noon luncheon at Hotel Chieftain.

L. participated in the activities of the world's largest youth organization. The various services of the Junior Red Cross were explained at an enrollment assembly in the fall. The council participated in many worthwhile activities. Clothes were sent to Greece, and ten International Cor· respondence Albums were exchanged with foreign countries. Rather than send gift boxes this year, the council decided to send a school chest in conjunction with several other schools of the Intercity Junior Red Cross Council. The chest included many articles of the gift boxes in quantity. Collection of donations for the Heart and Cancer Funds was conducted by the council. Proceeds from the annual Soc Hop constituted a sizeable contribution to the National Children's Fund. The Camera Club was founded at A. L. two and a. half years ago. Funds left by preceding senior classes furnished the first equipment, an enlarger and a camera, to which was added other equipment purchased jointly by the school and th e Camera Club. Although it is primarily a h obby club, the Camera Club h as been of additional service to the school in furnishing students with pictures of school activities, and in its work for the Crimson and Blue and The Echoes. The club has sponsored photography contests, and pupils have been in three National Photo Awards Contests. This year, the Camera Club has furnished most of the incidental and small-group photographs for the anniversary annual. As there was no 1950 Camera Club photo contest, the club was requested by the Crimson and Blue to submit for a miniature gallery in this book three outstanding photogr;iphic studies made by members. T hose of M errill Greenlee, senior, and Barbara Hagerman, sophomore, were chosen. N ot displayed, but worthy of honorable mention, was a sports shot by Joe Franks, senior. Picture Annotations: A favorite subject of many renowned artists, the old Iowa landmark in Mud H ollow was a "natural" for Barbara H agerman's camera. In h er study, Barbara h as retained successfully the atmosphere of desolation and cleverly angled the picture to point up the incongruity of radio aerial and log house . . . Once in a blue moon does a photographer get an action shot like tha t of M errill Greenlee's. M errill h as handled the camera in such a way as to "freeze" John M eyer's motion. Balanced composition characterizes the ph otograph . . Almost everybody loves dogs. M errill Greenlee couldn't miss with the picture of ten hungry puppies. A dding to interest is the effective contrast of long white tails and the large dark spottings. 99 fALL J OYCE AND ERSEN VIRGIN IA P ETERSEN EMMY L ou H ANSEN K ATHL EEN STEFFENSEN .

"As we begin the first year of the second half-century, it is difficu lt for a principal to tell what the future holds for h is school. Too m any wonderful plans are never completed due to lack of funds, more urge nt needs elsewhere in the school syst em, o r to a host of other val id reasons. " It does not, however, take a look into the crysta l ball to predict that the only building improvement and expansion program we can expect here at A. L. is the insta lla tion of a new h eating plant a nd the conversion o f a portion of the fourth floor into rooms for study halls. "It is hope d that our curriculum expansion, despite space restrictions, will include more metal shop facilities and a complete agricultural course. The commercial department is at present considering the advisability of a genera l business course to replace the one in accounting. This would prepare more young me n for genera l office work. All other departments of the school a re studying curriculum changes and improvem e nts to mee t more ad - equ ately the students' needs and interests. "The second fifty years of the century should find continuing progress at A. L., for the stude nts make the school and there are a lmost no li miting boundaries on their ambition, effort, and achievement." Theron R. Stue lke f 1 ·I ' ·1 ) i ·I During th e P.-T.

J!. When a school outgrows its buildings, the problems are serious and many. Alternatives are those of making additions to the building, using the present space to better advantage, or constructing a new and larger school . With budget restrictions and with the school board 's attention focused on elementary school improvement, Principal Theron Stuelke's daily headache is that of the second alternative-using the present space to better advantage. Knowing that the school population peak moving through the grade schools will soon hit A . L., Mr. Stuelke has suggested that the fourth floor attic in the east wing be converted into two study halls and two classrooms. Such conversion would necessitate stairways, dormers for light and air, fire escapes, but would enlarge the school at the least possible cost. Still another formidable problem in using the present space to better advan - tage is that of offering a more diversified program to the students. I nsta II at ion of a hand meta I shop has been one step in that direction; another contemplated step is inclusion of agriculture in the curriculum when space for such classes can be found . Pictures on this page illustrate how A. L. is looking ahead into a progressive future . Principal Stuelke. with instructor Mrs. Marjory Murphy and students Bud Roffman and Sandra Knott, discusses possibility of turning part of the attic into study halls and classrooms to help accommodate future enrollments .. . .

But during the last few years, a virile resurgence has become evident and the city is once again forward -thinking and forward - moving. The City Planning Commission, charged with day-today problems of city growth and with shaping Council Bluffs's future , has recently presented citizens with a master-plan prepared by S. Herbert Hare, planning engineer. Highlights of the plan are wide, tree -lined streets and boulevards, business district by-passes, an expanded, modernized school system, and development of a civic center. That Council Bluffs is a progressive city, compounded of commerce and culture, of homes and children, a city playing a proud part in American life and looking ahead confidently, is graphically told in the series of photographs on this page. North Broadway boom! Hansen's Additions and the Elmwood Drive area help answer demands for more homes as Council Bluffs grows .... Completion of Hoover School spearheads an educational program looking into the future .... A church spire reminds citizens that spiritual growth is not being neglected in the city's progress ....

America is today at the crossroads of her destiny JUSt as surely as she was in Revolutionary War times, as before the War between the States, and at the start of World Wars I and 11 . Many c itizens have lost contidence in their leaders, in the country's confused policies, toreign and domestic. Many Americans who looked hopefully to the United Nations have become disillusioned by her hesitation and the tendency of member free nations to give this country only token aid in Asiatic problems. Lecturer and traveler, Cornelius Vanderbilt in an Iowa talk paints a grim picture of America 's tuture, pred icting registration of almost a ll men and women for mi litary or civilian service, and a huge army and navy in Europe and Asia "for the rest ot our lives." These are soul-searing days, as Elsie Robinson, col umnist, calls them. "It is doubtful if we have ever seen worse," she comments. "Yet bel ieve in America . ue1 1eve that Ame rica has something which no other nation has ever had. Believe in the faith which has neve r been daunted no matter how great our reverses." On this page is a picture-portrayal of t hose th ings which should lift us up when we despa ir of our fu - ture and give us faith . . Sharply critici zed and yet a last hope in attempting to solve "unsolvable world problems " is the United l'Jations.

Attired in its bri ght, new uniforms, this year's group, performing unde r the capable di rection of Mr. Ha rry Hilton, has ta ken part in parades, at footba ll games, basketba ll games, a nd at any othe r affair where spirited music was needed. In addition, the band presented a concert in the Abraham Lincoln gym on February 23, a nd went on a short concert tour of Southwestern Iowa during the spring. With the abolishing of contests in which the band participated as a grou9, a music c linic was he ld in the A. L. gym on March 14- 1 5. Mr. Robert McM ille n of the Unive rsity of Colorado came to work with the band and with individua l members. As a fina le to the clinic, a concert was presented by the band. The idea of holding a clinic each yea r was acclaimed as much more va luable to the music - ians than atte nding contests. However, soloists and small groups still ente red contests a nd gathe red many honors for A. L. 18 Honors received by the band were a Division Two rating in the State-Band Marching Contest and a third place at the Ak-Sar-Ben Ma rching Contest aga inst strong competition. Individuals received high contest ratings and represented A. L. at the All - Sta te Band Festival at Des Moi nes on Novembe r 24. "Busy but always ready and willing" could easily be called the motto of the Abraham Lincoln Band. BAND OFFICERS President . . . . ... .. .... · · · · · · · · · · · · . ...... . . ....

The club, consisting of thirty-three membe rs, meets every six weeks to enjoy a varied program of music, games, and reports on Roman customs. The organization follows these customs as nearly as possible. For example, the executive office is shared by two consuls who take turns presiding over the meetings ; and the initiates this year wore the typical Roma n dress, a toga, for a day. The most outstanding activities of the group this year included the sponsorship of a dance , a Christmas gift excha nge, a nd a Valentine tea he ld on February 14.

Jere Olson, emerged from a large " A. L. " at the south end of the gymnasium. Cadet Colonel Richards and his lady then led the regimental officers and their ladies in a colorful march in which the A.

ROTC teaching here includes a course on basic infantry weapons. Students tear down and inspect the M- 1 rifle, the automatic rifle, and the carbine. They fire blank ammunition to feel the "kick" of the weapons, and seniors fire "live" am - munition on the police rifle range . Small unit tactics are drilled into A. L. cadets during their three-year ROTC instruction. Each man has a chance to exe rcise his leadership and drill command . Hygiene, first aid, map read ing, orientation on new weapons, and military policy all come in for study. There is increased emphasis on physical development and fitness to meet the draft calls. The new combat-conscious program of the ROTC is a hard - hitting attempt to build the youth of the land into a powerful force for preservi ng peace or for fighting war against the enemies of our way of life.

' - Coach Thurman Johnson The Abraham Lincoln basketba ll team of 1950- 19 51 proved to be one of the best outfits ever to come out of the Hilltop. Only t he squad of 1942 could better th is team's 17-5 record. Gwards Bud Shortley, Dick Davis, and John Kates could hardly be beate n in rebounding. Scoring ability v;as well taken care of by the front- line- John Meyer, Bud Crowl , and Dick Henderson, w ho were noted for their terrific fast- break throughout the season. The Lynx cagers started off by winning six games in a row. In the season's openers they beat Missouri Valley, 51-40; Red Oa k, 62-37 ; Iowa School for the Deaf, 62-27 ; and Glenwood, 61 -38. The first rea l test of the season came whe n the Lynx ove rwhelmed Cre ighton Prep, 62-34. This was their initial Intercity victory. Abraham Lincoln went to Sioux City the fo llowing week, whe re they defeated Sioux City East, 55-51 . The next night the Lynx took the ir worst beating of the year at the hands of a sharp Sioux City Central outfit, 58-30. Expecting a comeback in the fo llowing w ee k agai nst an underrated Omaha Centra l team, the Lynx again ra n afoul of pred ictions and came out on the low e nd of the scoring column, Centra l w inning, 48- 42. A. L., going into the next game with a 6-2 record , b lasted their way back into the victory column with a 62-53 win over crosstown rivals, T. J. Traveling to Boys Town, the Hilltoppe rs met a sma ll but fa st Cowboy t eam that d id every - thing but beat them. The final score was 5 1 -50 in a thrilling finish. A strong Oma ha Tech five became the hoopsters' tenth victim of t he season to the t une of 60 to 48. john Meyer demonstrates his t echnique on a lay- up shot as he scores anothe r two points for the Lynx aga inst Missouri Valley.

L. fi nally get sweet revenge on Sioux City Ce ntral, rolling ove r the team, 4 6-35, that had slaughtered thEm earlier in the season. Big Bud Shortley showed up in true torm and stopped cold Central's 6-5 star, Bill Soelberg. Sioux City East was defeated as predicted, 53 -44. The Lynx went all out in the foliowing week. W ith everybody playing tine ball, they smashed Omaha T ech 74-52. This total b roke a n Int e rcity record. Now shooting tor the Intercity title the Lynx were saved by Ray Waters and johnny Meyer in the last tew seconds to put the Creighton Prep game in the win column, 51 -49. In the last regularly-scheduled game of the season the "firehouse tive" came back strong in the second ha lf to defeat Omaha Central, 55-38. Thus, A. L. was crowned "Intercity Champions," a title last he ld by the team ot 1947. The state tournament began at the Unive rsity of Omaha field house, w here the Lyn.><: cagers again pulled another game out ot the tire by coming from behind in the last t ew m inutes to stop an always rugged T . J. quintet, 44-42. T he next tournament game, w ith Sioux City East the opponent-, was an a lmost identical repeat ot the previous one , tor once again the Lynx, spurred on by W a te rs and Meyer, sta ged a ra lly in the last tew seconds. This only ried the score, sending it into an overtime . A . L. ended on top, 51-47. In the sub-state final, the Lynx just couldn't find themselves until the fourth quarter and by t hat time it was too late. Their oppressors were Sioux City Central, 46-42. Ma ny agree that, if the game had been p layed on a ne utral fl oor, A. L. would have turned the t ables on the only t eam to stop them twice during the season.

L. for the first time, the cross-country squad began the l 950 season. On October 2 1, the thinclads left for Iowa City to participate in the one-mile team race. Boys making the trip were Galen Hassen, Ron Jackson , Gerald Kruger, Gerald Huggins, and Ken Hutchison. Hassen led most of the way but was passed in the last twenty yards by Don Murray of Des Moines East. Jackson c2me in eighth, Kruger nineteenth, and Huggins twenty-third. Hutchison was forced to drop out in the final !ap. As a team, the Lynx placed fourth in the entire state. Coach Capel, Hassen, Jackson, Kruger, Huggins, Wilson One week later, the same boys with the exception of Ken Hutchison, whom Myron Wilson replaced, traveled to the Ames two-mile team race. More than one hundred runners started the race with less than one-half finishing. The race was almost a duplicate of the previous week as far as places were concerned. Murray of Des Moines again passed Hassen at the very end, Jackson finished eighth, Kruger twentyfirst, Huggins twenty-third , and Wilson thirty-seventh. A. L 's standing had improved over the week to third in the state. The golf and tenn is teams, coached again this year by Mr. Walter Kaltenborn, both had busy seasons. Two returning lettermen were noted this year in the golf turnout. These were Dave Datesman and Jerry Lawson. Mike Merrill, Ted Tedesco, Charles Gates, and Ralph Storey came out for their first year in active competition. In addition to seven regular scheduled matches and the State Tournament, the golf team competed in the Missouri Valley Tournament held at Dodge Park. Although the tennis team lacked experience and a suitable place to practice in Council Bluffs, it was molded into fine shape . Ed Hoffman was the only exp : ri c nced membe r. Others on the team included Jim Stu z lke, Je rr y Beezley, and LeRoy Durham.

As a form of tradition the club presents boutonnieres to the fathers of the football team, while the mothers of th e basketball squad receive corsages.

Boys interested in basketball also gain worthwhile experience, for the sophomore team plays its games just before the varsity main-event and many times brings the fans a performance packed with thri I ls. The band, orchestra, and vocal groups offer sophomore boys and girls interested in music the chance to meet new people and, in several instances, the op75 Seated : Mary Ann Martin, Mary Lou Allred Standing: Harold Miller, Jim Stuelke portunity to travel and see different parts of the state. During the sophomore year, the boys begin to take ROTC, and the girls become active in different organizations, such as the literary societies and Pep Club. In the literary society plays, all eligible sophomore boys and girls have a chance to show their ability. The girls are also permitted to take part in contests developing their dramatic talent. The sophomore year, all in all, proves to be a student's stepping stone to stardom. Students show approval for their favorite candidates at the sophomore class ra I ly held in the auditorium.

October 12 and 14 we re the nights of the junior class play, "We Shook the Family Tree," a great comedy success. A few weeks later, in a hard-fought contest, juniors named their officers to steer the class of '52 through its junior year. These office rs, with the help of sponsors Miss Erva Huckleebe rry and Mr. Virgil Miller, proved themselves capable in handling the varied junior activities. Thanks to the diligence of the treasure r and his he lpe rs, dues we re collected, and this money, combined with tha1· from the class play, was used to defra y expenses of the annual Junior- Senior Prom. Any money rema ining in t he treasury will be used to purchase a gift for the school when the class graduates. The re was a rush and sc ramb le on class d ect1 on day as every junior hurried to cast a ,ote for his choice.

Miss Bess Hanigan Mr. Herbert Little Senior~ Membe rs of the Class of '51 have clon e muc h to brin;: honor and recognition to their school. As sophomores, they helped to originate the Student Council, which ha s become a very important fu nction at Abraham Lincoln. From the beginning they have taken part in all curricular and extracurricular activities, such as literary societies, plays, Hi-Y, Y-Teens, music, d ebate, Pe p C lub, The Echoes, and the Crimson and Blu:?. Se niors have done their share in building up A. L.'s reputat:on as a lead:ng contende r in the va rious fi e lds of sports- l:: a sketbal l, footl::a ll, wrestling, and track. During their final yea r, outstand ing m embers were elected to positions of football queen, D. A . R. representative, Pep C lub PinUp Boy, class officers, cadet officers, honorary officers, and senior committeemen. Busy senio r days reached the :r climax with the beautiful, earlymorning baccalaureate services and with the comme nce m e nt exercises, which were held at Kirn Fie ld for the first tim e in the history of the school. Enthusiasm and spirit ran high at the sen ior class ra lly w he n t he stude nts chose as t·he ir leaders John Me ye r, president, and Pe t e Fe ldt, v ice- p resident. The old tradition of exchanging senior p ictures is ca rried out by Norman Springe r, Robe rt Bostedt, Ma rl e ne Martin, Dick Davis, Nancy Gallagher, and Ann Beno as their senior year draws to a c lose. 88 13ARRY DEAN ABEL T enn is.
