Mr. B. J. Rock, Superintendent of Schools

Our Superintendent Exceptionally capable a s a business atlministrator, alert in the constantly changing

field of educational theory, possessing a real vision, gifted with the ability to do and create, human and sane as a personality, respected alike by students, teachers and community, such is a brief and perhaps inadequate picture of our superintendent and good friend, Mr. I?. J. Rock.

His daily activities do not consist in the Inere following of routine. His every thought and action have their basis in the vital query "will this step and this program ilnprove the quality of instruction in our schools and lead to better educational ad- vantages and opportunities for the boys and girls of Ripon."

Mr. Rock has done nluch for the schools of our community. Through the mediuin of the Tiger, the student publication, we know we represent the sentiments of school and town when we express our gratitude and appreciation for his leadership, and give expression to the earnest hope tha t we ]nay continue to have his fine services for many years to come.

Farewell to Teachers and School

As we come to the end of a perfect year The following knowletlge we learn from a seer: The clear old Ripon High Sings out another sad good-by! Our doors wide open, we need no lock For we a re protected by a s ta lwart Rock. Our office is sunny and light Why n o t ? For there is Miss Albright. Our town no other band need seek As long a s we have Mr. Lueclc And when listening to i ts noise J u s t look! We're not all boys. "Talk with words," says Miss Lyons "We've disregarded using signs." Now one never dare say "bingle" In the presence of Miss Engle. Mr. Banville-for science Miss Smith-if you're ill. But Mr. Lunde-for Physics and keep still. "I3oys and girls be careful on the phones" Is the legal advise of our dear Miss Jones. Typing and shorthand will keep you "busy" Under the supervision of Miss Giese. Who says the seniors don't like Miss Maloney? Miss Ginke tells us how to grow-? Seniors will come And seniors will go Juniors will follow As now you know Sophomores, conceited with their name Freshies soon learn where they a re lame But we a re here to play the game ,

And make our school worthy of fame. Teachers farewell- Students good-by- We leave you with many a sigh- Thus,-passes the glory from old Ripon High!

1930 THE TIGER 1930

History of the Senior Class A few days ago Mr. Rock was seen walking along slo~vly with a most sor-

rowful exprcssion on his us~rally happy co~rntcnancc. During thc course of his walk he nlct with Mr. Smith. Upon their meeting Mr. Stnith inquired. "Why so gloomy today?

"Oh, it seems most obvious, Ripon High School, is being rohhcd of the nlost intelligent and most accomplished class it has ever had," remarked Mr. Rock sadly.

"Why distingush them thus?" asked Mr. Smith. " Are they so exceptional?" "Why, haven't you heard about them?" It has becn a most exceptional class

-both scholastically and in its activities. It is overflowing with pep and en- thusiasm and its intclligcnce is denlonstrated by results of all its undertakings. Its mrmbers have always pushed forward ready to learn something new and accom- plish difficult and honorable tasks. You can't discourage thcm even if hope seems lost. Why last fall when they heard that they would not have a "Tiger" they all iust sccnlcd discouraged but they did not drop the nlatter. "Mona Kohl" who later bccamc editx, got busy carllpaigning and she certainly nlnde progress. Dora Raasch was hcr vcry able efficient business managcr."

"As Juniors they established thc standard High School ring with syr~lbols of the city and state on it. Just mention dramatics and watch them turn out for it, and thcy always do wcll what they undertake. W e find a number of senior girls out for dcclamtory and extcmporancous reading. The Junior Class Play rllade a big hit and so did their play of last year."

"Last year they gave a wonderful yet economical "prom" at the Sherwood Forest Hotel, Green Lake. Everyone enjoyed himself as he "tripped the light fan- tastic" to the time of the Cardinal Collegians, the Ripon College Orchestra."

"Athletics will miss the Seniors. "Franklin Wallschlaeger" is a very capable and inexhaustible center in the basketball team. And in football "Captain Wcrdin," "Lcudtke," "Wallschlaeger," and "Lehman" all did vcry well. Track has also had its members from this class for some time."

"Girls athletics can not be forgotten. It was t h r o ~ ~ g h this class that the G. A. A. was formed for the Senior High School girls. "G:vcn Wilson" was presidcnt and "Alice Badtke" was secretary-trcasurer."

"Music too has its advantagemcnt aided by this class. The Band will certainly miss "Wilbert Wcrdin," "Gwen Wilson," "Rosc Bultcr," and especially "Rucbcn Lclllllall."

"I believe the Girls Glee Club has made such a splendid success of the en- th~lsiasm of the senior girls. "Loraine Schultz" was president a*ld "Irene Ladwig" the secretary-treasurer. "Jane Barbour" was the leading soloist."

"Not only this year has this class been outstanding but for the last six years this has been true but most especially this year. In Junior High School they were in Audubon Club and all possible activities."

"Although it took them six years to attain their present height of being dignified Seniors it will take but a few minutes and they will be gone for good. Yes, I very much hate to see them leave."

With this Mr. Smith departed. Mr. Rock, with tears in his eyes, walked home.

History of the Junior Class of 1930 The Junior class of t h i s year i s t h e same gootl old class t h a t s tar ted a s Freshmen

in 1928, with our enrollment of sixty-four. We boast a fine record, not only scholastically, but in something also important

outside activities. I n a l l t he athletic events, football, basketball and track, t h e Junior class i s well represented. A good solid percentage of the band is made up of Juniors. Juniors a r e helping to make this Tiger a success. Besides these school activities, we find t h a t t h e in teres ts and abili t ies of t he Junior class extend still f a r the r , to the Boy Scouts and the Girl Scouts.

During the pas t year w e have been occupied in earning money fo r the Junior Prom, and also to suppor t ( a t leas t with our interests) the Tiger by sentling in a class picture.

As fo r school spiri t , i t is necessary only to a t tend a n y of t h e athletic events fo r proof of i t s existance. Our Junior Cheer Leader has done much fo r the whole school a s well a s fo r our class. When Vilo leads a yell, t he opponents all feel blue.

Now when the school year is drawing to a close, we hear fi.om all sitles "keep up the s tandard made by t h e Senior class."

I t s t rue t h a t we have a high s tandard to ul)hold. We think i t is also t rue tha t with every Junior doing his par t we can leave Kipon High School a s p~.oud of us a s we a r e of her.

Sophomore Class History I u w We entered seventh grade with high hopes for the future , nor were our hopes un-

L" ' I founded. & . .4 Y

d All of our class parties, held in t h e g y m , have been successes under the able super-

, , yision of Miss Kommcxrs, Miss Carrol, and Mr. Johnson; in order. From the beginning 4 ;r - * our class proved to he one of the most intelligent and strongest classes in ages (gatnere,l

f rom an authority). We entered into all sorts of activities and have continued up t i l l b -+resent. The Septeniber enrollment for '29 and '30 showed 64 Sophonlores. Forty per . J * cent of our hand meml~ers are Sophomores. Ten fro111 our class also got out fo r football - J - of which number, fou r received R's. Among the no st prominent were: A r t Fallon,

a Gordon Bellmont, and Lynn Fargo. There are eight out for basketball and we expect ! six or niore will be ou t f o r track. The well Icnc~wn A r t Icohnkc from our class is man- , _ &el: of all athletic,. We also claim nule menrhrrs in the Girls Glee Club. The outlook

.4 * fo r next year's ac t iv i t~es is even better. Ilere's wishing all classes a successful f u t u r e

Rural students, of which there are a large number, as well as the city students are par- ticipating in various school activities. It has been well represented in basketball and football this year and will undoubtedly advance in years t o come.

Besides being scholastically represented it offers help in the Band, Audubon Club and Scouting as well as Athletics, forinerly mentioned. Dramatics too must not be for- gotten for in that they too did not fail to enter.

Eighth Grade History The Eighth grade class started out the year with a class "hard time" party. It

was a grand success. 1Iarl.y Evans represented llaroltl Lloyd. He wore overalls, glass- es, a tiny green hat, and a big red handerchief. Carl Schallcrn and Frederick Butzin were ready to do some rash deed in their costumes as piixtes. Ina Duitrnan and Ber- nice Fallon were sailors. IIeave IIo! After the grand march, in which Mr. Johnson and Miss Komlners acted as judges, prizes were awarded to Percy Mallard and Dorothy Lukowski, who were dressed as poor little f a i m chil31.cn. Ila Wepner and K u r t Radke were awarded prizes. K u r t gave a speech on "love" antl Ila to ld the best joke. A de- licious lunch was served by the rcfreshnlent committee.

We have, arnong us , a number of band members, antl hope t o have more soon. We also have a number of scouts, both girl and boy.

Our class seems t o be noted as a pretty ''pep]y/' one, b u t how can we help it, with such people as Donald Buchholz, Frederick Butzin, Harry Evans antl Carl Schallern in our midst ?

We first elected our o f f i c e r s with t h e help of Miss ICommers. Bu t alas! Our presi- dent has left us so soon t o join the eighth graders.

Our first big excitement was ou r class costu~ne party, which proved a big success. Around the gym on equal terms marched pirates and pilgrims, colonial dames, hoboes, Charlie C h a p l i n , and even Santa Claus himself.

Most of the members of the class are active ~ n e i n b e r s of the Audubon Society, and :: few are in the band.

The Football Men

When "Coach Hettinger" issued a call for football more than thirty-five fellows ap- peared in uniform in answer to this call. One of the largest squads to have ever ap- peared in the Orange and Black were to be fount1 training daily on the gridiron. From these were moulded one of the hardest, fighting teams tha t have been put on the field by Iiipon High School. They well lived up to their name of fighting tigers. Out of the eleven regular players four were seniors, four were sophomores, two were juniors, and one freshman.

As a fullback, Lehman was one of the hardest plunging backs tha t ever donned a uniform. More than once his hard plunging brought the team from a tight place. All of "Washy's" G feet 2 inches of bone and muscle held the end. When he went af ter a ball nothing less than an elephant perched on a step ladder could stop him. As a guard Luedke showed his strength and ability. Although his first year of competition he proved to be a mainstay in the line. Capt. Werdin held the position of left tackle. This was his third year of competition ancl he played the game a s all veterans should play it. His 185 pounds were in every play. Although l h i e l was not a regular he was a good little fighter, playing left half.

The Juniors can well be proud of their athletes. Harold Duac is perhaps the best all around athlete in school. I'laying a t left half he was the best punter and passer in the little ten conference. He was elected t o captain the team next year. Hunold was teamed with Duac a t right half. Great things are expected of him next year. In the line we see two more husky juniors, Cehrke, playing a t center and Primrose a t right tackle.

The Sophs were repre:ented by Artic Fallon and Gordon Belmont. Fallon played quarter back and Belmont played end.

I-Iett found in Bob Buchholz, a freshman, a second Rube Wagner. Among the substitutes who will play important roles in the team next year are

Fargo, Bump, Adamski, Krueger, R. Luedke, Crahn and Nellis. Ripon High 3chool can well be proud of their good looking little coach. In the

three years tha t he has been here he has built some very good athletic teams. Coach Hettinger is rated to be one of the best little ten coaches. All the fellows like to work with him and some day he will have the best athletic teams in Wisconsin.

The Football Season

The game with St. Peter ' s school of Oshkosh was played a t Ingall 's field. I t w a s the first game o l t he season. The Tigers showetl their stuff a n J prevented them f rom scoring. The Orange ant1 Black kept t he ball in thei r possession nlost of the time and soon had a score of 18 to nothing a t t he entl of the third quarter. In t h e las t f ew min- u tes of play the Oshkosh team brought into play a n aer ia l attack. Werdin illtercepted a pass and r an 25 yards f o r a touchdown. The place kick failed. Final score, 20-0.

Beaver Darn came up to Ripon with h i ~ h hopes of beating the Orange and Black by a large score. I t w a s soon evislent a f t e r the first half t h a t Ripon would win with a de- cisive score. The first score was niade by Lehman in the second half. The Tigers hat1 carried the oval down to the center of the fieltl a f t e r receiving i t on a punt. F~ .on l there they carried the pigskin down to goal on two first downs. Soon a f t e r this Beaver Dam came back and a f t e l put t ing all they had into the fight tied the score. When the Beaver's kicked off t o Ripon, Fallon received the ball and a f t e r nice display of side stepping made the score 13 to 7. Dewey accounted the other point by a drop kick.

West Bend's plunging fullback coultl not be stopped by the Tiger 's line. The West Bend backfield men were f a s t and the Orange and ]<lack could not possibly hold them. Wes t Gend excelled a t passing through the air. The scoring was done in the first half. Ripon bracing up considerably in the las t half. The final score was 33-6. Fallon lnatle the touch down. Besides Lehman, Duac, Fallon and Hunold played especially good ball.

Battl ing ganlely aga ins t a team of' acknowletlged superiority, t he Ripon High's lost t o Waupun by 13 to 7 count in one of the best prep school gridiron t i l t s played here in recent years. The invaders took the fieltl with a g rea t deal of confidence, only to find t h a t they had underratetl our Ripon men, and their task of smothering Ripon was t o be a fight all the way. Ripon remained in f ront till the final qua r t e r where a bit of mis- judgement in the f r aming of a defense fo r a Waupun shi f t f o r n ~ a t i o n caused Ripon's downfall. Reuben Lehman nlade the touchdown fo r Ripon.

Ripon played Columbus there. Both tealus were quite evenly nlatched dur ing t h e first half. Neither teal11 w a s working their best, par t ly due to a poor fieltl. I n t h e l a s t half Ripon placed the pigskin over the goal twice, but the score did not count. Time ant1 t ime again we advanced only to be se t back more yards than we had gained, by fouls. Final score was 0 to 0.

The Ripon Tigers ant1 the Ilerlin gr iders clashetl in a hard fought ganlc a t Iierlin. The field was very nrudtly ant1 slowetl u p the game considerably. Time a f t e r t ime Leh- lnan and Duac woultl make line plunges t o gain a foot o r nlaybe a few yards. Only a few runs of short tlistances were made around the ends. Lehman made the only touch- down in the ganle in the 2nd quarter. The place kick w a s unsuccessful. F inal score 6 to 0.

Mayville High won the unciisputed possession of t he Litt le Ten conference football championship when i t defeated Ripon High a t Ripon, Novetnber 6th. Score, f t o 19.

The Basketball season proved t o be disastrous in the line of conference standing. but from the standpoint of a team, i t proved t o be successful.

The season s tar ted with 25 lnen reporting, but this was cut down to two teams, f i rs t and second. Coach Hettinger built his team around three letter men: Capt. Duac, forward; Wallschlaeger, center, and Belmont, guard.

Captain Duac was rated a s one of the best players in the conference and was elected all conference guard. He was Ripon's scoring "ace" and one of the high :corers in the Little Ten Conference. Duac has one inore year to play. Washy was the only senior t h a t played regular this year. r e i n g a n ex-,.apt.-in he was the inain spolte in "Hetts" wheel. Playing a t center he ranked second t o Duac in scoring and was given honorable inention on the Littt lc Ten. Belmont, who is only a sophomore, was teamed with Hunold a t a guard position which he handled in t rue veteran form. Great things a re expected of him in his future years as a E. B. star. Playing his f i rs t year of H. S. competition, Hunold, held the position of running guard. He proved to be a very capable man and will be one of "Hett's" mainstays, still having another year to play. "Hett" found in Fallon, a f a s t shifty forward, a future basketball s tar . He proved to be a dangerous offensive nlan and a good player a t all times. Although Novtzeske did not play regular his height and ability t o pass made hiin a dangerous Inan. He playecl a t center and forward.

The seniors who will receive letters this year are: Wallschlaeger, Novtzeske, and Werdin. The mainstays of the squad are Duac, Hunold, Belmont, Fargo, Fallon, and Millard.

Coach Hettinger appointed Orin Fink, former Ripon High School B. B. s tar , t o coach the second team. Coach Fink used the following line-up in his games: Theil, and Kroll, guards; Krueger and Kohnke, forwards; and Adamski a t center. The following substitutes were used in most every game: Carter, Buchholz and Gransee. The team turned in five victories and were defeated twice.

The Basketball Season Rosendale was the flrst game of the season for the Ripon Tigers. I t was played on the College gym court.

In the flrst half Duac scored four fleld goals. The only points for Ripon. . Rosendale had eleven points to thvir credit. In the second quarter the Rosendale players had Duac fairly well covered and not only prevented him from adding several more baskets, but annexed several themselves.

The large floor didn't bother the Rosendale team as i t might have done. They sunk the ball for counters from nearly every angle of the floor.

The Tigers seldom were successful in getting the ball on the tipoff. Washy was game but couldn't outjump his opponent a t center.

The Orange and Black fought hard up to the final signal but gradually the Rosendale player? added more basket; to their score. Duac accounted for five poillts and Washy three, in thv last half. The final score was 22-16 in favor of Rosendale.

The Tigers engaged Beaver Dam in a very hard fought game. Duac and Washy played a n important part ill i t wlth their short passing with Duac sinking the ball for the points. Duac was all over the floor. The Beavers could not keep him covered. Ripon was the flrst to score. Washy making the flrst point on a free throw. At the half and a t the end of the third quarter Ripon was ahead with only a point or two. During the last half both teams came back with a fierce attack. The Beavers gradually weakened and Ripon piled up a decisive lead. Fargo played the last few minutes of the game and added a point on a free throw and Washy two.

The first two quarters of the game with Mayville were fast but neither team had much success in breaking away to pile up a very large score. The score a t the half was 10-5 in favor of the Orange and Black. I n the third quart- er both teams came back with more flght than was shown in the first half and began to sink the ball for several counters. Mayville was more successful in placing their shots and cut down Ripon's lead considerably. I n the last quarter the Tigers ran the score up and won by a decisive victory of 19-9.

The flrst Ripon-Berlin game was played here. Both teams were slow the flrst half. Although the score was 14- 10 a t the end of the half in favor of Berlin, Ripon came back in the last half upsetting Berlin. From then on the game proceeded fast and furious. The Tigers tied the score. A free throw was awarded to Ripon which won the game for them.

The Wautoma game was the last game of the season to be played on the College gym floor. Wautoma had a good team and put up a good flght. The flrst half of the game was quite even. 2-1. Duac.

Washy and Fallon began showing their s tuff in breaking loose in the last few minutes of play to make a feur more points. Duac led in the scoring. He accounted for five of the twelve points scored.

The elimination game with Berlin was played a t Neenah. The Tigers had several fouls called on them while the game proceeded to keep the spectators on their feet most of the time Both teams were out for victory. Play after play was broken up. The ball would change hands a great number of times in the center of the floor before either team could make a break to carry i t down the floor to get a chance to make a shot a t the basket. At the half the score was flve to four in Berlin's favor. In the last half the game continued to be a nip and tuck affair. Ripon win- ning by three points. 13-10.

Some of tire games that the boys played are: touch football, soccer ball, hasketball, volley ball, speed ball and indoor baseball. 13esides playing ganlcs they were taught the fundamentals in ~riarching, correct postwe, exercise by which they could build up their bodies, and the fundamentals of all track and field events. The slogan which Mr. Hettinger used and followed was, "A sport for every boy-a boy for every sport."

The girls gym classes were conducted by Mr. and Mrs. Hettinger. Mr. Hettinger having charge of the morning classes and Mrs. Hettinger the afternoon.

The sports and games which the girls took par t in are: volley ball, basketball, in- door baseball, soccer ball and t iack and field events.

most impossible. Beginning in the fall of 1924 with only twelve instruments i t has grown to a fifty piece band under the capable direction of Mr. C. E. Lueck. In the spring of 1929 i t entered the s t a te contest and placed first in i ts class. A very pleasing concert was also given t h a t school year.

The 1929-30 band has played for the public on many occasions including a program given by the American Legion Auxiliary fo r the band benefit. On the opening night of the "early Christmas shoppers' event," although extremely cold, a good number of the band ventured for th and played a t various places of business.

All for R. H. S. "Fight, Tigers, Fight!" Say, but this is the best yelling this old auditorium has

heard in decades. If we don't win that game it won't be the rooter's fault Already 1 have that queer sensation that grips one .just a s the f i rs t whistle is blown. Well, 1 have to get my practising done before 7:30.

Out into a crispy, winter night. Hustling, head down over the slippery hill to the gym. The row of lights that mark the windows of the sky-light; cars parked on both sides of the road; black figures continuously streaming in the doorway-say-this is great! Now inside, fumbling for tickets, crowding down the narrow passage with red noses and quickened breath over to the bleachers past the preliminary which is in full swing. 0 Gee!

Down comes the team, deftly, nonchalantly, dropping the old ball through the net. The grim little coach, with a bull-dog set to his chin. A t last off coine sweatshirts, a final word and-"Come on, gang, let's go."

0 goo'nus, I must stop biting my fingernails. They were all so nice and-. Oh. where my neighbor has clutched it. ?hey didn't make it, anyway. I wonder, with don't let that-Don't Let that go in! Whew! I sink back to my seat, one arm aching chagrin, whether I look like that girl across the floor who appears to be going into spasms. Oh stop tha t man! Don't let him dribble 'way down! Stop tha- Well for goodness sake, did you see tha t shot! I'm just linlp all over. I can't even cry. How ever did he make it:' Quarter! And so on through the game. Every other minute I find myself f a r over the bounds of maidenly propriety and with an effort, try to cool off. Good for 'em. Come on now, make it, Dewey.-One minute to play. The opposite side Gee, I'm hoarse. Oh pal-don me, please, I didn't mean to step on your-Oh, foul!

Good for 'em. Come on now, make it , Dewey. One minute to play. The opposite side maintains a despairing silence, while our cheer leaders can't sit still a' moment. Whistle Frantic rejoicing which calms down to a sort of peaceful exhilaration by the time I reach home. We won-we won-we won. What more could be asked?

Those loveliest of trees Lighted- By the dim-starred slties Make shadows Woven with silvery patterns.

Physics Imitation of Karl Sanburg's Chicago. "Her" in the poem is referred to a s the Subject- Physics.

A brain exaggerator of students you are, Using up their surplus ingenuity, Causing them to pass sleepless nights. Difficult, arduous, hard t o penetrate. A study of the "why" of facts.

They tell me you a re obscure, and I believe them for I have passed eighty hours in her recitation room and heard.

And they tell me there a re few tha t attempt to undertake it and I answer: Yes, it is t rue for there a re few sitting in her pews to hear of her.

And they tell me there a r e few tha t want to remain in their pews after seeing what it is all about and my reply is: I've seen students want to walk out, staying only, when being persuaded by her instructor.

And they tell me there a re few tha t understand what it's all about af ter having heard, and I answer: I believe them, fo r I've seen students look more stupified after hav- ing heard than before.

And having answered thus I turn once more to those who a re afraid to undertake i t and say:

Come and show me another subject with such a knowledge of the "why" of facts, such problems for practicing the brain and such pleasure of working in her laboratories.

Difficult a s trying to count the s tars in heaven or the hair on your head: Specific Heat, Heat of Fusion, Pressure Coefficients, Acceleration, Elasticity, Cohesion, Hygnometry, Linear Coefficients, Ergs, Momentum, Inertia.

Under her covers are words enough to spill, ~nathematics enough to wreck your brain and an interest enough t o continue it.

Only laughing and merry making will eliminate her griefs, until you've reached her fin- al page and have passed out the door.

And then, oh, how you long to go back to her study room to hear and have more of her and even long to be a physicist.

Solitude When all a t length is silent

And quiet comes I hear the flowers whisper

She tells me all her secrets I yearn for more.

I learn of the precious love That never dies.

The Mysterious Passenger

On the early morning t r ip the bus driver was always ahead of schedule. He had to drive slow in order not to arrive a t Lake Street ahead of time. Sometimes the pas- sengers complained about the slow speed. However, the minister said nothing.

The driver wondered a t the minister's silence. He wondered how f a r he was going. Would he get off a t the f a r side of the flying field? The road along the flying field was muddy. Accordingly the driver began to look for a dry spot.

He turned in his seat to ask the minister where he wanted to stop. No passengers were left in the seats. Had the minister stepped out somewhere? The driver swore and stopped the bus. He climbed from his seat and stared back. The minister was nowhere in sight. Again the driver swore.

Slowly the driver clinlbed back t o his place a t the wheel. Once more he twisted around and stared a t the empty seat. A crumpled piece of greenish paper caught his eye. Ten seconds later he held a five dollar bill in his fingers.

The driver remembered the policeman a t Black Falls. Probably the passenger was not a minister a t all. May be he was the escaped criminal.

Whoosh! go the snowflakes careening along; The Winter King shrieks in his devilish glee. The Earth stiffens, freezes, and waits fo r the Spring.

Games Among the Greeks For more than a thousand years the Olympic games of the Greeks were held in

July of every fourth year in honor of Zeus, the highest of the Gods. The Greeks were very enthusiastic over these games. They corresponded very much to our track meets. The games were held in one of the fairest spots in Greece. These contests attracted enormous crowds. People came from all parts of the Greek world. Friendship and un- ity were shown on these occasions.

The training of the body of t h e Greek lad in his earlier boyhood occupied just a s important a place in the Greek system of education a s the training of the mind. I t de- pended much upon the strength and ability of the athlete to win in the contests. They were sent to school away from home and were skillfully trained.

When the great day of the contest came everyone grew excited, hoping t h a t their favorite athlete or maybe their own child would be one of the victors. The contest con- sisted of five exercises; leaping, quoit throwing, running, wrestling and javelin throw- ivg. Leaping over a bar a t different heights and also foot races made up the first exer- clse. Quoit throwing, throwing the discus, was a test of strength. The discus was a great lump of iron with a hole in the middle through which was put a handle of wood or leather which aided in throwing it. The next exercise was wrestling, similar to tha t of today. Hurling the javelin was another exercise which required skill. Later other trials of strength, skill and endurance were added to these five, including boxing and chariot race. Judges were there to decide the contest and award the prizes, a garland of pine leaves or an olive wreath. The athlete did not work for the prize a s some of us do today, but the victors were honored and when they returned to their native cities they were received with extraordinary honors. Sop~etilnes they lived a t the expense of the city.

These contests also had a religous significance for the Greeks believed tha t the body of a man has a glory as well a s his spirit and they could best honor Zeus by de- veloping their mind and body.

The Greek youngsters also enjoyed swinging a s do the youngsters of today and their games and toys were very much like our own.

A Friendly Act I Witnessed I always believe in the ~noral, "A Friend In Nerd Is A Friend Indeed." I will

tell the story of a friendly act I witnessed a year ago this srrmmer at Camp Tichora, Green Lake.

I arrived at th'e camp on a Sunday in July. My father took me out there ill his car. I t was a mild day and several nlembers of the Ripon Girl Scout Troop were al- so going out to Calnp 'l'ichora for a two-weeks vacation. H e went into the office to find out which cabin I had been assigned to. I deposited my travelling bag 11po11 the floor of the lobby and followed my father into the office. Mr. Seamers, the chair- man of Camp Tishora, seemed vcry nice and he assigned me to Cabiri 4, which lat- er I learned was under the snpervisio~l of JoAnne Kurtenbacher of Madison. There were six girls in my cabin, Mary Techmeyer, JoAnne Kurtenbacher, Madison, Mary Belle Mapps of Green Lake, Anabeth Geer of Oshkosh, Myrtle Andrews of North Carolina and myself. They all seemed very nice but I wished I was back home with my own girl friends. Mrs. Seamers, wife of the chief, introd~~ced me to all the girls in my cabin. After lunch we had a swim before rest period. There were about four girls under the age of twelve and they didn't know much about swimnling but they went in anyway. Soon after the girls had jumped in, there was a shrill cry from one of the ten-year olds. She had gone bey6nd the safety rope! A girl of thirteen soon swan1 to the spot and brought the girl back to the safety zone. The girl was given artificial respiration and she soon recovered.

This girl was given a medal and was honored and praised by every girl in camp.

The Real Pal One day little Jackie Jones, who was three years old went down to the beach

with his nurse, Marie and his dog, Pal. Pal was a Gernlan Police dog and the best friend Jackie had.

Jackie was sitting on the beach with his nurse and Pal near him. He was an adorable picture sitting there in his little sun-suit. Soon a friend of Maries canle up to her. "Won't you join us in tea?" she asked.

"Thank you, I would love to. Jackie will be all right here, won't you Jackie?" Marie asked.

"Sure, I'll be all right." said Jackie. So Marie went to join her friends while Jackie played on the beach. In the

meantinle Pal strolled up the beach a short distance and went to sleep. Jackie play- ed in the sand until his eyes became so heavy he couldn't keep them open. While he was sleeping the tide began to collie in. Soon it came up to where Jackie was sleep- ing. Slowly it began to cover Jackie. Faster and faster the water was covering Jackie. Finally he awoke and the water was rushing over his head. At first he did- n't know what was happening. When he realized what was happening he became frightened and called, "Marie!" But Marie was unable to hear him. Again he shouted. The cry of the familiar voice reached Pal's ears. He sat up and listened Slowly the water was rising and again Jackie shouted. Pal recognizing the voice dashed down the beach. When he saw Jackie bouncing about on the waves he gave a leap and started out after Jackie. Finally he reached him just as he was going un- der.

Declamatory and Dramatics

Exceptional success has been the reward to t h e s tudents who have been tloing speech work fo r Kipon High School this ycar.. Because the declamatory and tiranlatic season was still f a r f rom over when the f i r s t copy on school activities was se t u p fo r t he 1930 Tiger , i t is f i t t i ng t h a t a page a t t he end of this volur~le be given to a review of the season.

A large number of g i r ls went out fo r the tleclalnatory work ant1 were coached fo r the try-outs by Miss Maloney ant1 other teachers. Af t e r a series of elimination try-outs, J ane t F a r g o and I Iar r ie t H a a s were chosen t o represent t he school in t h e contest with Berlin and Waupun. H a r r ~ e t took a secontl place in t h a t contest , pro- f i t ing by the coaching of Miss Maloney.

l jargy I ly sa r t and J a n e Barbour took a secontl and f i r s t respectively in t h e extemperaneous reatling contest, and J a n e I'ollowed up her success by t ak ing a sec- ond in another contest a t Milwaukee.

Then Ripon High actors calne into their own antl with the old pol)ular "Flol.ist Shop" won a f i r s t p lac t a t Waupun in competition with Waupun and Reaver 1)am. In their next contest they took a second. The actors in the cas t were Reuben Lehman, Haroltl Werdin, Lewis IIunold. J a n e t Fargo, J a n e Barhour. Miss Jones directed the work and Mr. Toll traveled w ~ t h the troup a s s t age manager.

Mr. Johnson workd ha rd with the orators. Bu t three boys entered the com- petition fo r t he honor of representing Ripon. Haroltl Werdin and Clarence Zimmerrnan were chosen to represchnt the school. Lionel Hunold, t he thirtl candidate showed ex- ceptional promise and will undoubtedly do sotlle fine work on the platform in f u t u r e years. In the leage~e contest a t Berlin the Ripon ora tors dicl not place. Their selec- tions were good, and thei r coaching carefully ant1 intelligently hantlletl by Mr. Johnson but their lack of expc~rience w a s a handicap.

All in all i t was a gootl year f o r Ripon speakers and the s tudents congratula te contestants antl coachf .~ . I t is t o be hoped t h a t an even greater interest will be shown in speech work in t h e fu ture . With Miss Maloney, Miss Jones antl Mr. Johnson a s coaches, Ripon has a t r io of capable speech directors, who given the mater ia l will produce results.

The Band at the Tournament

J u s t before the f inal pages of The Tiger go to press there is still a n oppor- tunity to chronicle the f ine success of the band a t t h e Milwaukee tournament.

The Elephants marched and playetl the i r w a y to new laurels th is spring. Four th place in the marching contest , a ~ e c o n d class r a t ing in group "B" in the band competition, two f i r s t places in solo events, three second places and a four th in solos, this was the record achieved.

The four th place in the marching contests was of y e c i a 1 significance fo r t he r a t ing was a distinct t r ibute t o the unifornls and other ecluipment t h a t the band now has. Second only to Menasha fo r tl-e best looking uniforms in the state, t he Elephants have the business men and t h e band mothers to thank f o r thei r f ine uni- formed appearance. J u s t before the tournament the band mothers pul,chased a large banner and a tlrunl major 's shako bringing thei r to ta l expenditures fo r t he band during the pas t year u p t o almost six hundretl tlollars.

Las t year Itipon played in Class competition and receiveti a F i r s t Place award. This year t h e band stepped into f a s t e r conlpany competing with bands of froill 20 to 30 nionths experience. Four of the bands in th is division which won f i r s t place awards this sp r ing won sinlilar awards in the same division las t spring. Lack of complete instrumentation (i. e. oboes, bassons, bass and alto clarinets, kett le drums, French horns, etc.) handicaps the band a t t he tournaments a s f a r a s decisions go.

The following people won awards in solo and ense~nb le competition: Bunny Exner , f i r s t place, french horn, class 13; Roberta Stuar t , f i r s t place,

f lute, class B; Neil Resheske, second place, trombone, class A ; Ralph Leathar t , sec- ond place, trombone, class B; Lynn Fargo. four th place, sousaphone, class A ; Reuben Lehman, Roberta S tua r t . Gisela Hinz, Gwen Wilson, H a r r y Washkoska. Barbara Scott , second place, clarinet sexte t , class A.

Fifty-two musicians comprised the band a t t h e tournament th i s year. The entire group made the t r ip on special t ra ins via the Northwestern and according to all reports had a g rea t , b ig t ime.

The tournalllent is t h e biggest single fac tor f o r encouraging the growth of the band. The Tiger hopes t h a t t h e Ripon band will be able to enter these big a f f a i r s a s long a s they continue t o be held.

Menasha is considered t h e next tournament city fo r 1031.

A Word of Appreciation High school at~nrtals are ~ t s u s l l ~ the work of their faculty advisor.

The 1930 Tiger is at1 exception. Practically every dctail of work on this modest booklet was done or supervised by Mona Kohl and her staff of assistants. The book is small, it is true: pictures are not very plentiful; write-ups are short. But lack of money prevented the p~!blishillg of a bigger and perhaps better vollt~ne. Mona Kohl, with the handicap of little money, did at1 exceptionally fine job, and to her and 11cr workers goes the credit for this antlttal.

I t gives a faculty advisor genuine ylcnsure to make these state- ments, for an editor of an antitla1 who displays ability and willing~less to do the work without calli~lg upon the advisor every step of the way, is a rare creature indeed .

To you and your staff, Mona, many congratr~latiotls. CLEMENS E. LUECK, Faculty Advisor 1930 Tigc.1.
