E T is with pleasure, mingled with a feeling of sadness, that we, the gradu-
' ating class of 1926, appear before you tonight. VVhen We entered Adrian
WMM X High School three years ago, Class Day, one of the most important events
6 of graduation, seemed very far away. But no-W it seems only yesterday
' fe that we entered dear old Adrian High School.

' Tonight we wish to extend to you, parents and teachers, our thanks
for your interest in us and your kindly assistance. If it had not been for you, we
would not have enjoyed so many advantages, consequently our achievements would
have been more limited. The way has not always been smooth. Some were handi-
capped financially and were obliged to work their way through high school. Many
drove long distances in order to attend. We were obliged to forego pleasures and
remain at home studying. But we overcame our difficulties and stand before you to-
night with pride and joy in our record as a class.
The future is before us. No one can foretell what it holds. Adrian High School
has afforded us excellent training and preparation. Our future achievements should
be great. VVhether or not they will be remains with ourselves.
VVe extend to you a most cordial Welcome. We hope you will enjoy this enter-
tainment and carry away a pleasant memory of the class of 1926.

CLASS HISTORY
LUCILE SCHNEIDER
Ejfza-Vlf' ISTORY is often thought of as a record of a series of dates, battles and
important events. So this history is a chronicle of the most important
events of our high school days. September 4, 1923, is one of the most
memorable dates in the history of the class because! it is the day on, which
we, as Freshmen, entered Adrian High School. This class of two hun-
dred and one members was the largest class to be enrolled in this school.
ln spite of our numbers, we felt some timidity in facing those upper-classmen because
we had heard rumors about the way Freshmen were treated, but we: were determined
to march, right in and fight for our rights if we must. We soon became accustomed
to the other pupils and even adopted some of their ways. lylany were our achievements
that first year. Robert Matteson was chosen to be our leader. The Freshman Booth
at the Pep Society Carnival, which was attractively decorated with the class colors,
the royal purple and gold, was one of the prettiest there. Campbell hiurphy was
playing his second year on the Football team and two other Freshmen boys were on
the Basketball team. In the Declamatory Contest VVendell Smith was awarded first
place. At the end of the first year we knew we had a class that could show real school
spirit.
After a happy summer vacation, we returned to make the second year a greater
year than the first. We had forgotten the fears of the Freshman year and felt quite
free to converse with our old friends and meet new ones. At our class meeting,
we chose Wendell Smith as our president. He proved to be a most efficient leader.
Again the boys showed their good school spirit in Athletics. Four of the Junior
boys were on the Basketball team and. many of them fought successfully on the Foot-
ball team. Our Class Program was made a success by the presentation of' "The
Teeth of the Gift Horse" and the "Class Song," written by one of our members,
Beatrice Little. One of the Junior girls, Glendora Hurlbut, took the leading part as
"Theresa" in the Operetta f'Captain Crossbonesn and many of the Juniors were in
the chorus.
VVe were pleased with our Junior year and came back to school on September 8,
1925, confident that we would fight to win. To assure our success, Victor Keip
was chosen as our leader. For the third time the boys of our class took their places on
the Football and Basketball: teams. One of the important events of the season was
f'The Bells of Beaujolaisf' The majority of the members of the cast were Seniors
and many Seniors were in the chorus. The Senior play, "The Whole Townls Talking,"
was one of the finest plays which has been produced in this High School and We wish
to express our appreciation of the untiring efforts of Miss Thomas, who directed the
play. Our greatest undertaking, as a class, was to earn money to finance an Educa-
tional Tour to Washington, D. C. The aim of the class was to earn enough money
so that every member could enjoy this privilege. Our class was the first to break away
from old customs and introduce the cap and gown for Commencement Week. VVC
have fought our battles in the school and tomorrow marks the close of our High School
History and the beginning of a new era in our lives.

CLASS PROPI-I ECY
CLARA MCKEIGHAN, FRANCES COLLAR
Frances: Hello, Clara, I haven't seen you in ages. What are you doing?
Clara: Why, at present, I'm reading extracts from Victor Keipys diary which
has just been published. Y0u've heard about Victor's books, of course?
F.: Yes, Iive read several of his books and enjoy them very much. I imagine
that his diary is very interesting.
C.: It is. It has several references to some of our old schoolmates.
F.: Oh, let's look it over together. CThey begin to glance over first page.D
This name sounds familiar Qreadsj :
March 19, 1940-Wife and I went to see UClaude Carpenters Cross Continental
Circusn today. VVe were surprised to see some of our old schoolmates taking part.
Harold Sharp led the band which was called HSharp,s Spectacular Syncopated Sere-
nadersf' In the band were Clarence Biscupski, Norman Baker, Burr Allen, Charles
Leonard, Norman Clark, Keith VanDusen and Montelle Springer, whose specialty
is the mouth-organ. John Ampey gave a Charleston and clogging exhibition and
Fred Temple sang his new song, 'KTen Nights in a Barrooml' Very soulfully. Lyster
Dewey also made a big hit while singing "Oh Evelynf' Upon inquiring, I found that
Evelyn was in another tent mending Lyster's socks. Dean Long was the ring-master.
He made an imposing figure in a tuxedo. A thrilling prize-fight was held between
Harold Hornby and Richard Shrader, the heavy and light weight champions of the
world respectively. Laurene Bovee sang 'fBring Back My Bonnie to Me" Cby the
way, Francis is the giant in one of the side shows but considers himself above herl.
Eva Hilkert, Doris Gregg and Estalla Miller sold popcorn and pink lemonade with
the ease of professionals. They must have acquired this training in their Senior year
at high school. Dorothy Jackson and Creita Eayrs were very graceful tight rope
walkers. just outside the main tent, we met Marguerite Van Auker who paints
pictures while you wait. Her paintings have a very "Frenchyl' appearance.
As we were leaving the circus grounds we had a little accident. Our chauffeur
ran into a taxi bearing a huge sign which read "Transportation of Other Fellows'
Girls." Upon close investigation it proved to be driven by Lynn Bowerfind. Imogene
Zook was riding with him but explained that she was out collecting Dr. Jewett's
"Bill,' when Lynn offered her a ride.
C.: Isn't that interesting? Let's see. Victor married Dorothy Bly, didn't he?
F.: Yes, isn't that a perfect match?
C.: Here is something else:
April -I-Went to Edwin Blohm's bookshop today to see about a publication. I
found Eugenia Mott deeply absorbed in "The Life of Scott." Ruth Loveland, Irene
Kahle and Ethlyn Hurlburt were Working there and are considered excellent authori-
ties on literature. I purchased two books, one entitled "How We Won Bliss" by
Eula Burtch and Florence Holloway, the other by Everett Stevenson, "Flapperism-
How to Crush It."
F.: I wonder if he mentions Adrian in his book. Let's glance through it and

see. CThey turn pages.D Here! wait a minute! I thought I saw something about
Adrian.
C.: Sure enough, read it.
F.: CReadingj:
May -I-I thought I'd like to go back to see old Adrian again so we left im-
mediately and "here we are." We expect to do the town tomorrow.
C.: Oh keep on reading.
F.: Continuing:
May 5-Went down town today. We found Perry Wilson managing a K'Smith"
store with Richard Mawin as an assistant. Frank Collins was running a garage with
"Fiske" Tires a specialty. We found that Lucile Schneider is an auctioneer while
VVinnifred Rau is her traveling companion and takes care of the sales. Margaret
Krout and Lois VValdron have established a confectionery store which seems to be
more popular than the 'lBusy Bee" was in High School Days. Irene Bailey and
Margaret Rogers are silk hosiery saleswomen. VVe passed a hotel which we were told
was built very recently. It was an imposing structure with a prominent electric sign
which read "The A. Frank Hotel, 2000 Rooms and a Bathf' We noticed through the
window that Gladys Burkhart was the desk clerk. Down the street a short way we
found another new building. VVe found that it was a laundry. There was a huge
bill-board on the front of the building which read HDon't Kill Your VVife-Let Us
Do Your Dirty WVork"-C. Spies. We went in and looked the place over and saw
that Laura Hibbard, Jeanette llloflit and Dorothy Pieplow were assisting Charles.
We came to a neat little shop which happened to be Josephine Beal's Beauty Shop.
Nellie-lNIae Bennett is the manicurist and Louise Bishop gives henna rinses. Perhaps
the most important feature of the show was Arno lVIiller's shoe-shining quarters. It
is said that Arno is very skillful in this profession. VVe also learned that this Beauty
Shop is patronized by Albert Zimmerman who is now the lVIayor of Adrian and was
earnestly striving to keep his school-girl complexion. Dorothy Thomas is 'a famous
modiste. Her mannekins who often visit Paris are Cleo Quigley, Leta Yeutter, Ruth
Geer and Lulu Root. It was noon by this time so we stopped in to Gladys VVest-
gate's little tea-shop on the four corners. She makes a specialty of "Campbells"
foods. VVe talked with Gladys for some time and she told us that Kenneth Ryan
was the Governor of Ohio and that Avis Adam was his private secretary. She also
said that we should not fail to visit the Tack factory. As soon as we left the tea
shop we waited for a street-car to take us to the factory. VVe were in the act of board-
ing one headed in the right direction when the conductor,"Cappy" Lewis, informed
us that this street-car was for ladies only.
C.: Claughingl: Do you remember how "Cappy" used to avoid the girls in
high school?
F.: I should say so, and now to think that he is so entirely devoted to them. You
read on, will you?
C.: Continuing:
Finally a street-car came. This one happened to be run by VValter Bohn. We
arrived at the Tack factory and there a great surprise awaited us. The factory was
owned by Robert Jackson and the tacks were guaranteed to produce dimples like his
if fallen on properly. Ruth Derby demonstrated for us. We returned to the down
town district to complete our shopping. VVe stopped to admire a pearl necklace in a

jewelry store window where a placard caught my eye. It read HSee the Earles Girls
about your Pearlsf' We found the store to be owned by Evelyn, Martha and Vivian
Earles. They told us that Opal Hendrickson is the Queen of Jamaica and that just
recently, at: her suggestion, Glennis Van Auker has gone there to run an airplane
service for the uplift of the natives. We passed a quiet looking gray home which
looked rather gloomy. On the porch sat Frances Westerman. She told us that it was
her place of business and that all those who had been disappointed in love came to live
there. Some of the victims were Erna Schmidt, Louise Baker, Esther Jones, Con-
stance Wiggins and Lois lVIacKenzie. We passed on feeling very sorry for the ill-
luck which has befallen the poor girls when all at once we heard a noise resembling
a hand-organ. On a prominent street corner we found the cause of the noise. It
was an inexhaustible gum machine with a musical attachment. Helen Hughes,
Thelma lVIay and Thelma VVooster had invented it and were selling gum. As we
were in the act of speaking to the girls, Clement VVright burst forth from a building
near by and besought the girls to move their machine as it disturbed him. I thought
this rather unreasonable but Clement explained that he, assisted by Harvy Berndt and
Paul lVIurphy, conducted an exclusive girls' school and that the young ladies were
disturbed by the music. We purchased an Adrian Daily Telegram and went home.
F.: So Clement is conducting a girls' school! I should have guessed that he would
conduct a boys' school. Well, for goodness sake, look at this: "VVe read the paper
with much interest and the following clippings especially interested us: 'Debate tonight
on the momentous question-VVhy is the heavier end of the match the lighter?' The
World Debaters, Kenneth Gruel and Harold Townsend-afhrmative, vs. Claire Peck
and Elton Beekel-negative. The debates of these famous men have gone down in
history as prominently as the Lincoln-Douglas debatesf,
C.: Imagine that, and they were our class-mates. Aren't you proud? Here is
another clipping:

I am a rich old maid and live on a farm. Claribel Engle,

Dusen or Ruth Swenk.

Riding Academy-Helen Pries and Elizabeth Prange.
F.: Why here are some more clippings:
MICHIGAN CHOOSES POET LAUREATE
lN'Iarion VViley has been chosen poet laureate of lwichigan. This honor was said
to be the direct outcome of her famous poem "To Charles."
HIVIore missionaries neededf, says Vvilliam Drager, missionary in Siam. Mr.
Drager is doing excellent work and the missionary hospital conducted by Edna
Blouch, lNIay Stonacher and Hazelle Somerville is said to be well populated.
The noted Scientists, Charles Dennies and Elwood Miller, are exploring for
Dinosaur eggs in Greenland.
C.: VVhat is this clipping about radio stations or something? Oh I see.
fReads.j Hear Thelma Reisig, Ruth Droegemueller, Florence Scholl and Lena

Engle will sing "The Prisoner's Song." He has been heard from coast to coast and

the audience never fails to burst into tears. Earl Young will lecture on "W0'man
Suffrage-A Curse."
F.: That must have been a fine lecture. There are no more clippings so let's
read in the diary.
May 6-We decided that we would like to visit the old school before returning
to VVashington so promptly at 8 o'clock this morning we started for the school. We
were surprised at the number of our class-mates who were instructors. Helen Tag
is the Physical Training Teacher, lVIelvin Beebe is the Coach, Louise Filter teaches
French, Darrow Thompson teaches Shorthand and Eunice jones teaches Geometry.
In conversation with these teachers we learned that Campbell Murphy operates a
can opener factory in Blissfield. He is the head salesman, having acquired his excellent
training in salesmanship in his Senior year at high schoolg also that Burton Bartlett is
a preacher in Philadelphia. It is said that his dignified presence is a great inspiration
to the congregation. Helen Harvey is the organist and lklarguerite Stetten often
renders a violin solo. Wilma Reganall, Ruth VVeaver and Ruth Lash sing in the
choir.
C.: Can't you just see Burton preaching? Let's read on.
llay 7-Before leaving Adrian I made some inquiries about people whom I used
to know. I learned that Harold Patchet is coaching a girls' football team at Oberlin.
Lillian IVillnow, Nita Schultz, Susie Pixley, Katherine Bellenir, Laura Hibbard,
Edith Miller and Jeanette Boyden are star-players. Carleton Smith is a professional
football player, second only to "Red" Grange. Alvin Blanchard and Frances Anderson
have made many experiments in the agricultural line. One of their finest discoveries
was how to grow sweet lemons. Robert lliatteson is now playing with Paul VVhite-
man's orchestra. lr is generally believed that when Yvhiteman retires Bob will take
his place. Arthur Babcock is teaching Science at the U. of IVI.
F.: I never realized that there were so many talented people in our class.
tTurns pages., This is just business references. Let's skipf them. VVe can read the
whole book some other time. Here is something.
Sept. 1-Secured tickets for the opera tonight. The opera was staged by Dale
Spaur. lt was entitled "Oh Elin." Andy Engel was the leading man and Helene
Hoisington took the part of 'iMin." Phyllis Parker, Marcella Bachman, Myrna
Trosien and lllarie Fairbanks were in the chorus. David Curtis was the comedian and
was unusually funny.
C.: Say, speaking of operas, I happened to think of Glendora.
F.: Why, is she in an opera?
C.: IVell, she was to make her debut in Faust's opera but just as she was to
appear she was seized with such a violent fit of giggling that it was impossible to carry
the performance any further.
F.: How like Glendorai
C.: Let's return to the Diary. Oh, listen to this!
Sept. 20-hir. Richard Beck, of Hollywood, California, called today and had
dinner with us. He informed us that he often doubles for Reginald Denny and that
at present he is trying out for the leading part in the picture "She Is A Violet." He
also said that Kay Sampson's latest picture is UHOW Could You, Clarence." Emilie
Schubert is also in pictures. Beck was quite surprised when I told him that Wendell

Smith was posing for 'kArrow Collar" advertisements. He said that he had seen
pictures of Helen Beebe and Virginia Westgate on magazine covers.
Oct. 5-Received a letter from Bert Robbins, who is now a noted architect, in
which he stated that he is very busy working on plans for a new high school building
in Adrian. The school board wants to have the plans ready so that if by any chance
the school bill passes in the coming 19-P2 election, the work on the new school can begin
at once. In the same mail Dorothy received a letter from Viola Iasmund, in which
she stated that she and Claire Lee were happily married and living in Birdsal. Claire
is mayor, city council, and dog warden of that thriving metropolis. She also stated
that Alice Randolph and Clifton Jordan were married but soon divorced because
Clifton refused to learn to Charleston.
F.: Goodness, is that ll o'clock? I must go. I haven't been out so late since
I left high school.
C.: It seems strange that so few of our school-mates are married.
F.: My dear, give them time. We'll continue reading tomorrow.

GIFTATORY
RICHARD BECK
URING the three years we have been in high school, the faculty has taken
keen delight in giving souvenirs and memoirs of one kind and another.
It is now my pleasure to conclude this good work. These little presents
are given because it is thought that they will be needed after the receivers
have left the protection of our dear teachers. Much deliberation and
great care was used in selecting these costly gifts. Due to this great
expense in collecting, it is obvious that all could not receive them, so I have selected
those members of the class who, I think, will be able to use them to the greatest
advantage.
The first gift is for Burr Allen. Some people will probably wonder why I am
giving him this hair curler, but anyone who knows him will agree with me in saying
that he needs it.
To Laurene Bovee I wish to present this volume of Longfellow. She can be
with him all the time now instead of at intervals.
This "Ford Instruction Book" may be useful to Paul BIurphy if he takes any
more trips
to Pontiac.
This toy dog is for Katherine Sampson. I will leave the naming of it to her
but suggest that she call it "Brownie,"
I think this rattle will go very well with Gladys NVestgatels baby talk.
The cake of Palmolive Soap, "for that school-girl complexion" can be for none
other than
Lynn Bowerfind.
Although Phyllis Parker will undoubtedly know the contents of this book, I am
sure it will be valuable to her to use for reference. The title is "The Conquest of the
Normans."
It is my sincere wish that this monkey will help keep Arno Nliller from being
so unulterably bored.
These hand tailored trousers are for Nlarguerite VanAuker. They will go well
with her hair cut.
Everyone knows Jean lNIott has almost ruined her health by staying up at times
until morning, just to make herself the most proficient student in the geometry class.
This vanity case is a small reward for her efforts.
ln our class we have two powerful orators and the members want to show them
some appreciation for their efforts. Fred Temple gets this medal for being the
fastest talker, while Bob Matteson earns his by being the loudest and most volumi-
nous speaker.
The last gift I have to bestow in behalf of the class of 1926 is to extend its best
wishes to the members of the Junior and Freshman classes.

PROLOGUE
This poem is a fantasy which represents the imaginary entrance of the Class of
1926 into the ranks of the Alumni.
I
The silence was occasioned by a knock
VVhich echoed loudly in the crowded Hall.
An aged man in quaint and Well-Worn frock
Arose to meet the unexpected call.
II
In the street outside, a murmuring sound increased,
'Mid voices raised in cries and bits of song.
Within the doors, the laboring multitude ceased
Their work to inquire the cause of laughter long.
III
It was a Work of many different kinds,
As varied as shells or sand beside the sea.
The craftsmen dwelt in near and distant climes
But in them all a likeness seemed to be.
IV
For each and all possessed a certain store
Not only of Wealth or health or self-content,
But also of knowledge placed there long before
When each was young and on some learning bent.
V
The chairmanis eyes by chance fell on the sign
That gleamed and scintillated on the wall,
Then suddenly remembered it was June,
And therefore just the time for such a call.
VI
Then rushed he to the door and Hung it wide,
,Till the sun shone on that sign "Alumni.',
To those who waited, he bade, "Come inside,
Welcome, Class of Twenty-Six, Adrian Highf,

lt is the tendency at such a. time as this to look backward instead of
into the future. VVe forget all the cares of high school and remember only the many
pleasures and benefits we have gained. Parents and friends, we sincerely thank you
for the kind support you have given us. VVe greatly appreciate your kindness, en-
couragement and the timely counsel you have given us amidst our difficulties and trials.
Now we turn our minds toward the future with its possibilities and opportunities.
The Great War brought into the foreground the necessity for education. VVhen we
think of the thousands of men who were turned away from the army because they
did not know enough English to follow the commands of their officers, of the thou-
sands of first-class fighting men admitted into the army, who could neither read nor
write, we know that the elimination of illiteracy is one of the most pressing problems
which will confront us during our lifetime.
If we think of the large percentage of applicants who were turned away because
of ill health in the early days of the late war, we appreciate at once the necessity for
a new program for health education. But physical fitness alone is not everything. VVe
must come to a fuller realization of the fact that every human being has his place in
the general plan of things and it is the business of education to fit the individual to
find and till his place.
Not only in the educational field are we needed but there is a great necessity for
trained minds and hands in every branch of industry in the country. VVe will be
called upon to do the things that others have done and we hope to perform them
honestly and well.
ln the years we have spent at Adrian High School, we feel that we have. been
given a liberal preparation for what We have to do. It is not the preparation but the
way we use that preparation by which we will be measured. The honors will go to
those who dare to venture and learn to lead and only time can tell who those shall be.
VVe went to school to equip ourselves to enter the world. To many of us Class
Day means the end of all school training but to others it is merely a stopping, after
which we will continue our work in College and Universities.
Tomorrow night at Commencement, this great body of friends will meet to-
gether for the last time. This is our last opportunity to say farewell. It is with
profound gratitude we say farewell to you, our teachers, who have taught us the
proper attitude toward life and have inspired and encouraged us. Members of the
Class of 1926, as We say farewell it is with a feeling of regret that we must part.
YVC know that the world holds sorrow as well as joy but we are eager to find our
life's work. As we step into a larger life, let us hold fast to what we have gained
in high school and utilize it to our best advantage. Let us fashion a vision in our minds
of what is expected of us and then meet our responsibilities. Let us conscientiously put
forth our best efforts and be determined to make good, come what may.

JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY
GLADYS NEAR
Efzihgi is quite a fall from the highly-respected position of ninth-graders in
145 ,Tunior High to the humble place of Freshmen in Senior High. Such
a downfall, we, the class of 1927, experienced in September, 192-I-. VVe
soon found our places, however, and set out to work toward our goal-
'ef graduation.
As Freshmen, we elected Edward Baldwin president, and lVIiss Arm-
strong class adviser. We were successful in athletics through the efforts of the boys,
who won A's, through the girls' basketball team and in the musical organization where
we were well represented. Other activities were our booth at the Pep Carnival and
the Freshman program, with the play "Good Medicine" a prominent feature.
This year, Richard Goff was elected president. Our class rings and pins now
identify our members everywhere. YVe are again prominent in athletics. lWany of
our number are still prominent in the orchestra and glee clubs. Several Juniors tried
out for debating and one member, Kladeline Nixon, made the team.
VVe have helped the Seniors sell tickets to raise money for their VVashington trip.
Next year, we expect to take a VVashington trip ourselves. VVe want to be the largest
and best class ever graduated from Adrian High School. And, with these aspirations,
we look forward to our last and best year in High School.

Blanche, a member of the Junior Class, was a girl whose character
made her a companion to be enjoyed, and whose likable disposition won
for her many a friend among her teachers, classmates, and the student
body of Senior High School. ln her death the school has lost an excellent
student, one whose interest in all activities was keen and loyal, and whose
memory will long be an inspiration to finer School-Citizenship.
HA sudden dropping of burdens,
A sudden ceasing of sigh,
The sudden hush of a dear, dear voice
A sudden song on high!

One word, one low, swift, KCome'-
Suddenly we may 'absent' be,

FRESHIVIAN CLASS HISTORY
TOM Hoover:
gf: :NgHE Tired Old World sat by the roadside watching them pass gayly along.
Little ones and big ones, fat ones and lean ones, tall ones and short ones,
were all going in a certain direction-to school. The Tired Old Worldls
eyes glistened, for among them he observed a fine looking group, a group
that swelled with pride and walked very straight for today they were to
Z W 2 enter Adrian Senior High as Freshmen.
'AWouldn't it be fine?" sighed the Tired Old World, dreamily, "Wouldn't it,
though ?"
l'VVouldn't what be fine ?" asked the Average Citizen, dropping to the grass be-
side the Tired Old World.
"Just to go back to schoolf' sighed the Tired Old World, "and see there all the
faces we have almost forgottenfl
"For myself l'm glad it's overfl snapped the Average Citizen, 'il always wanted
to escape schoolll' ,
"No, you didn,t,'l added the Tired Old VVorld, "You never will. You just
keep on learning through life-it's a school, you know-but one doesnlt get report
cards and vacations."
"But one can't spend his entire lifei learning, and besides, after one has passed
and passed from grade to grade what does he come to, anyway?" asked the Average
Citizen.
"The Great Examination Day, of course," answered the Tired Old World
thoughtfully, "when there are no September sevenths and all is vacationf,
The Average Citizen had to give in and walked away with a better understanding
of life than he had ever before experienced. The Tired Old World looked after him
and smiled, saying, "Just his daily lesson, l hope he studies it Well."
Some months later the Tired Old VVorld was glancing over his notes and records
when one drew his attention. It was a brief review or history of the Adrian High
School Freshmen. lt showed that the Freshman Class had an enrollment that far
surpassed any of previous years., that it had entered many school activities and had
assisted in many ways to make the life of Senior High a success.
'lThat certainly is a record to be proud of," remarked the Tired Old VVorld, "l
surely expect a great deal from them in the future life of Senior High-and in later
personal life as Well," he added with wisdom.

SENIOR PLAY CAST
E73-'ifgi ANDUSKY, Ohio, is the little town which is talking in that extremely
entertaining comedy, 'lThe' Wlitule Town's Talking," which the class of
'26 presented to a sympathetic audience on the evenings of lwarch 25
and 26. It is a Three-Act Farce Written by John Emerson, the president
E-'l of the Actors' Equity Association' of America. The tremendous success
9 W 2 of the play was largely due to the ability of the director, lVIiss Frances
Thomas, and the loyal support of the cast.
The action throughout the play takes place in the living room of the Simmons
home in Sandusky, Ohio. lVIany chuckles and hearty laughs are encouraged by the
little maneuvers of Mr. Simmons and his business partner, Chester Binney. lN'Ir.
Simmons is intent upon a union between his daughter Ethel and Chester, and although
numerous obstacles present themselves, he finally achieves his purpose and at the end
of the third act peace reigns in the Simmons household.

SENIOR PROGRAM
The annual Senior Program was given before a general assembly of the students
February 12, 1926. The speaker was Perry lN'I. Hayden, of Tecumseh. Mr. Hayden,
a recent graduate of the University of Michigan, was, during his Senior year, president
of the Student Christian Association. He chose for the theme of his speech, "Where
there is no vision, the people perish." The forcefulness of his delivery and the earnest-
ness of his manner, together with the excellent ideas contained in his speech, made a
deep impression upon all who heard him. Glendora Hurlbut sang a solo and Clara
lVIcKeighan played. Both of these numbers were greatly enjoyed. Victor Keip,
president of the Senior Class, presided over the program.
IVIARDI GRAS
The pupils who expect to go to VVashington were divided into groups with a
captain for each, and throughout the year many activities were undertaken by the
various groups. The big event of the year was the Klardi Gras given at the Masonic
Temple, April 26, 27, 1926. Each group undertook one or more activities. A dinner
was served each night before the carnival and besides the many booths there was a
dance in the auditorium.
BACCALAUREATE
The Baccalaureate Services for the Class of 1926 were held on the evening of
June thirteenth at the Presbyterian Church. The Reverend Edward llflontgomery
delivered a very fine address which was greatly appreciated by the Seniors and their
friends.
SENIOR SEND-OFF
The Class of 1927 delightfully entertained the Seniors at the annual Send-Off on
the evening of June fifteenth. The dinner was served at the lflasonic Temple. lm-
mediately following the dinner an entertainment was given. After the program, the
guests spent the evening at dancing. The ball room was artistically decorated.
CLASS DAY
The annual Class Day exercises were given on the evening of June sixteenth. A
very pleasing and interesting program was given by members of the Class of 1926.
According to the custom of the school, the Gavel was presentedr to the Class of 1927
for a year's keeping.
COMIVIENCEMENT
The Commencement exercises were held on the evening of June seventeenth, at
the Croswell Theatre. Dr. H. L. Feeman, President of Adrian College, was the

FOOTBALL
VVENDELL D. SMITH
gf: DTE call of Coach Shadford for material for the making of this year's foot-
lgil ball team at the beginning of the season was enthusiastically responded to
by the appearance of forty men on the practice field, all eager to gain a
position on the team.
Thirteen letter men remained from last year's successful squad and
2 the entrance of several men from other schools whose football records
made them promising candidates for the Adrian team, predicted a successful campaign.
Keen, but friendly rivalry was shown by the men throughout the entire season.
Not one of they forty candidates could be classed as heavy. The problem then that
faced Coach Shadford was the moulding of a team which could use its football intellect.
Much time was given to the fundamental elements of football and the coach did his
best to teach each man how to outvvit his adversary.
VVhen the team was finally selected it was not a heavy, formidable one, but a
group of men, strong, quick and able to think rapidly at a critical moment. ln all the
games that were played, either when gaining a victory, or going down to defeat, a
fighting spirit was shown which is the most essential characteristic of a good team.
The first game of the season was played in Adrian with Tecumseh, the county
champions for 1925-'26, Adrian played consistent football, limiting her plays to line
plunges, end-runs and punts. Tecumseh, dying hard, was unable to gain a first down
and received the small end of a 39-0 score.
The second game was also played in Adrian with lkfarshall. An aerial attack in
the first half gave Adrian a 13 point lead and gave her an opportunity to try out some
other plays that would be used later in the season without danger of losing the game.
The visitors received their only tally on a well executed cross buck in the final period.
The final score was Adrian 19, Nlarshall 6.
The next week Adrian journeyed to Ann Arbor with the grim determination to
do her best against the larger school. The score shows that the fighting spirit was
displayed in this game. Adrian was forced to play a great part of the game on the
defensive and the excellent punts of our fullback kept the ball in safe territory. Ann
Arbor received the one break of the game which accounted for the only score, 7-0.
Following the Ann Arbor game, Adrian met Coldwater on the home field. Adrian
still smarting from the defeat of the previous year, avenged herself by whipping her
opponent 27-0.
On a field of mud, Adrian next faced Detroit South Eastern. The visitors scored
a place kick in the early part of the game after the officials had given them two oppor-
tunities. Although the Adrian players recovered many fumbles, and once the Adrian
captain broke away and ran with the ball nearly to the visitors' goal line before he
was tackled, it was too slippery to advance the ball. Score, Detroit South Eastern 3,
Adrian O.
The most exciting game on the schedule was played at Sturgis. In the first
quarter, Adrian easily scored a touchdown. Sturgis came back in the second period
after scoring on a long pass over the goal line. VVhen the tvvo teams lined up for
The SENIOR SICKLE 1926
mf s - ww
the second half, one could not help but notice the set and determined faces of the
players. Sturgis scored a drop kick. With but three minutes to play Adrian took
time out and talked the situation over. Then from her own five yard line the blue
and white machine began her advance down the field to victory and the game' ended-
Adrian 14-Sturgis 10.
Adrian next played at Hudson and easily defeated her 62-0.
Backed by a host of rooters, Adrian next faced Monroe at the rival city. After
two spectacular runs by the opponents' quarterback, Monroe claimed a 14-O victo-ry.
Congratulations to Monroe.
As a climax to a successful season, a game was arranged with the alumni of
Adrian High School. All former football players of the school were invited to partici-
pate Thanksgiving morning. After a parade through the down town districts to the
football field and after a comical preliminary practice, the game started. Graduates
from the class of 1898 played side by side with those of 1925. All high school men
who had stayed throughout the season were. allowed to play in this game. The so-called
youngsters finally emerged victors. Score, Alumni 6, High School 12.
Adrian won six games and lost three, scoring 173 points to her opponent's -I-6.
Adrian High School owes much of its splendid athletic history to Coach Shadford
and appreciates the results of his labors.
A THE TEAM
Captain Claude Carpenter played his third and last year at center. Not only
being an accurate passer and a sure tackler, he was also a terror to opponents' lines
and his smashing attacks were an inspiration to his team mates.
Fisher, captain elect, played guard. Fred's fighting spirit which would never
say die, often brought the team a victory where defeat seemed apparent. Fisher has
our best wishes for 1927.
Gruel played his second year at end, where he broke up interference easily and
when he was unable to make the tackle himself, always turned the play in.
Carlton Smith, who hails from Elyria, Ohio, started the season at guard but his
tackling was so good that he was moved to tackle where he played an excellent game
both on offense and defense.
Temple, at guard, played a fighting game and his ability at recovering fumbles
made him invaluable to the team.
VVeatherbee, a tackle, was a bulwark of strength on the line of forwards. He
had unlimited endurance and great things are expected of him in the future.
Weiidell Smith played his second year at end.
Murphy acted as general for the team for his fourth year. At quarterback, his
quick and wise decisions for the right play at the right time brought the team many
victories.
Beck, a southpaw, played fullback and was a triple-threat man. He was also
a furious tackler and a wonderful receiver of passes. For two years he played in
every scheduled game without a time out.
Jackson, halfback, was formerly a tackle, but because of his unusual ability to
block and punt, he was shifted to the backfield. He was a sure tackler and when
given the ball, could always hit the line for a gain. This is Jackson's third and last
year.
The SENIOR SICKLE 1926
i- f ff if.ff--fff---ff--if-wif'-ff-ffm--ff1779
Goff, halfback, who was hindered by a bad knee which was injured early in the
season, was prevented from participating in many of the games. VVe hope Dick will
have better luck next year.
Baldwin played guard. He was a strong defensive man and could take his man
out on the offensive.
Wagner, center, was a hard worker and one who could talk it up.
Hornby played his second year at tackle. Praise should be given him for the way
he withstood the battering attacks of his adversaries.
Other men of the team deserve their share of praise and it is the desire of the
graduating football men that they raise the standard of athletics even higher than it
is now.
The second team is deserving of much credit. They received knocks and bumps
and no thanks and only had the satisfaction of seeing the first team develop into a
strong one by the strong opposition that they gave them in scrimmage.
Walter Bohn, the manager, has the thanks of the team for his services. His work
and faith in the team are appreciated both by the school and the coach.

'T 1 ' ESPITE the loss of two letter men for the first semester because of ineligi-
bility, Coach Shadford developed a team of which the school should be
lfllwffq proud. Fourteen games were scheduled and the Blue and White lost
but two of these, scoring 427 points to her opponents, 222. The fine
record is due more to the excellent passing and teamwork than to

and every candidate was given a chance. Score: Adrian College Reserves 93 High
School 28.
Adrian High School opened its basketball season Jan. 8, by playing Tecumseh
there. The floor had been freshly oiled and was very slippery and no decision could
be reached by the coach as to the players' ability. Again all candidates were sent in.
Adrian finally emerged victor 22-6.
The nextf week Adrian faced Ann Arbor, a leading contender for the State
championship. The game was closely played but Adrian lacked the skill to put the
ball through the net and lost 11-2-1.
By the next week, Adrian was a much stronger team. lllany of her faults had
been corrected by strenuous practice and a few more plays had been introduced by
the coach. Coldwater went down to defeat at her hands 30-11.
Adrian next played Ypsilanti and easily won by a 39-9 score. The Adrian
defense was particularly good. Ralph Taylor, a former member of our school, cap-
tained the Ypsilanti team.
hlindful of the defeat of the previous year at the hands of lllarshall, Adrian went
to the rival city prepared for a stiff battle and got it. The first quarter ended, before
the Adrian players could rally a score and Marshall was leading by 12 points. The
second quarter Adrian made 1-l points and tied the score. ln the second half, first
one team would be ahead and then the other but when the final whistle blew Nlarshall
had been vanquished 27-21. Players and fans agreed that this was the fastest and the
cleanest game of the season, having been played without a substitution on either side.
On Feb. 10, lllorenci came to Adrian and went home defeated -17-16.
Birmingham was next beaten on her home floor 33-13.
The second game with Tecumseh was played on Feb. 17. Tecumseh now
possessed a much improved team and floor. Score: Tecumseh 93 Adrian 29.
Hudson visited us the next week. Hudson 165 Adrian -17.
Pontiac, smarting under the defeat at the tournament of 1925, determined to
beat the Adrian five. Although the Blue and White were unaccustomed to playing
on large courts they conformed to the conditions and defeated the larger school 28-12.
The coming game with Metamora had long been heralded as the hardest one on
the schedule. The Ohio school had lost but one game throughout the season and1 had
already won a tournament in her class. The first half ended with Adrian six baskets
behind but again she proved her ability to score in a pinch and tied the game just as
The SENIOR SICKLE 1926

the whistle blew. ln the overtime game both schools alternately scored. Final score:
Metamora 275 Adrian 28.
The second game with Morerici was played there on March 12. Score: lVlorenci
229 Adrian 27.
The High School defeated the Alumni the following week -I-6-22.
Lansing was drawn by Adrian at the tournament which was held in Ann Arbor.
The game was slow and tiresome, neither team showing ability to score. The work
of the Adrian guards was commendable but the team lacked her former tallying
prowess. The game ended Lansing 15g Adrian 13g thus ending the tournament for
Adrian and completing her season.
The team appreciates the value of their coach and his intelligent and considerate
manner of handling the men. Also much credit is due to Melvin Beebe, the manager,
who was a member of last year's team and who has not only had a keen interest in the
fellows but who has carried out the financial part most successfully.
THE TEAM
Glennis VanAuker played his second year at the tip-off position. Not once during
the entire season was he outjumped. VanAuker was also a consistent scorer.
Harold Patchett, a forward, played good basketball and seemed to be able to
score almost at will. He broke speedily and handled the ball easily.
Captain VVendell Smith played at either the forward or center position.
Paul Howe, captain-elect, played at a guard position and his fighting spirit often
turned a seemingly defeat to victory. 'fShiek" has our best wishes for 1927.
Richard Beck held down his position as guard for the third year. Being a
remarkable defense player, he often worked the ball down the floor and put it through
the net. Beck's experience was a great aid to the team.
Frederick Fisher, a guard, had a remarkable eye for making baskets at a distance
and was a valuable man for the team.
Leland Stevenson, forward, although hindered by a late start, added many scores.
Stevenson is known as one of the best basketball players in the state.
Ray Hanover played guard and it was most unusual for his man to get away for
a basket.
The other men participated in the games and much is expected of them in the
future.
A new system was introduced by Coach Shadford this year. Games were scheduled
for the Reserves and they often accompanied the team on its trips. They did not lose
a game and always gave the first team a good scrimmage.

The opening game of the season found the nine at Hlissfield where they
gave a very creditable showing. Following Coach Shadfordls instructions
gig the Adrian pitcher threw nothing but straight balls because of the danger
if W 2 of injuring his arm for the rest of the season. The more experienced Bliss-
field team was able to bunch its hits and won 10-3.
The next week Adrian went to lVIetamora with a much' stronger team and.
played in a most commendable fashion. The score up to the ninth inning was four
all, but in that frame Adrian made two runs. Score: Metamora 4-5 Adrian 6.
At lvlorenci a contest was staged to see who could hit the ball the harder. The
Adrian men showed themselves to be all sluggers and returned home triumphant.

The second game with Blissfield was played at Adrian. Adrian now proved
herself dangerous to the county champions. The game was closely contested through-
out and in the ninth inning Adrian staged a rally only to die with two men on bases.

At the time that this account goes to press several scheduled games remain yet to
be played and a successful outcome of the season is assured by the way the well-oiled
Adrian machine is now working.

GIRLS' BASKETBALL
HE year 1926 ushered in a successful and interesting basketball season
for the girls of Adrian High School.
Although the Seniors did not retain their title as Champions they

Little can be said of the Juniors on account of the few games they
played. Their victory over the faculty, however, established a good reputation for
them.
The Frosh produced a team, of which they can be proud. The title of Cham
pionship falls to them for winning most of the inter-class games.

.7 HIS year, as in the years before, the Athletic Association has played an im-
KK portant part in student organization. Mr. Beebe, president for the first
semester, was unable to preside at all meetings, as they were held in the
morning and he attended school only in the afternoon. hir. Smith, the
vice president, filled lNIr. Beebe's position very well.
i W 5 Last fall Walter Bohn was elected football manager. He Hlled his
position very well.
lWelvin Beebe was elected basketball manager. Our basketball season was very
successful under his management.
One notable thing was accomplished by the Athletic Association this year. The
football letters are now to be two inches larger. This certainly will show up better
for Adrian High School.
The baseball manager, Frederick Fisher, has proved very competent, and David
Curtis, the track manager, has showed himself to be very efhcient.
The last word is for our yell-leaders. They have never had to be called a
second time.

Debating League. The question debated was, Resolved: That the Proposed Child
Labor Amendment to the National Constitution should be Adopted by the United
States. The aihrmative team consisted of Madeline Nixon, Hazelle Somerville and
Burr Allen, with Gwendolyn Bancroft as alternate. The first debate was with Hills-
dale and was a pronounced success, the score being three to one in favor of Adrian.
Though not showing the polish of experienced debaters, the contest nevertheless
showed the time and effort which both llfiss Thomas and the team had expended on it.
Due to illness, the personnel of the team was changed somewhat for the next debate
with lwonroe, as Gwendolyn Bancroft took the place of Hazelle Somerville. Though
the decision of this second debate was not as favorable as it might have been, still
Adrian upheld its side of the question well against its more experienced opponents.
Besides these two State League debates, the :affirmative team met both Ann Arbor
and Britton in practice debates.
NEGATIVE TEAM
EVTTNZ5 HE negative team was composed of Tom Hoover, hlary VVilson, and
- - i . , , .
up fb Earl Young, with Gerald Downer as alternate. lhe debating season
bv ,-' v .
was opened when Adrian met Hudson and although they were defeated
'f'v"I cr' . . . . .
it was a hard won victory for Hudson. 'The next debate with Blissheld
showed the dauntless spirit of the team and the long weary hours of
' ff -- - . . . .
2 W 3 coaching which it underwent. The score of this debate was three to one
in favor of Adrian. After the two regular debates, practice contests were held with
Tecumseh and Ann Arbor. lN'Iore enthusiasm and interest was shown in debating this
year than ever before and it is hoped that this will increase as time goes on. Taking
all things into consideration, the debating work this year was a great' success and with
two victories this year, the future looks bright for Adrian High School in the lllichigan
Debating League.

Y' 2: 'l I-IE Girls' Pep Society has followed a different line of work this year,
which enabled it to live up to its name more than before. The organiza-
tion was divided into various groups, each one backing some organization
in the school and group chairmen were elected. The supporters of the
v f basketball team were especially active in selling candy and helping to bring
'MQ
f ta
wi.. Ylihz- f
S ,, Q
'i I 4 large crowds to the games. NVith this new plan, it was possible for the
Hpepl' of the girls to touch every branch of school activity. Gwing to the preparations
for the Vlfashington trip, it was thought inadvisable to give a Carnival. At each pep
meeting before a game, one of the girls from the Pep Society gave a speech-fthis
livened things considerablyj. The girls who supported debating usually attended the
debates in a body. Miss Green, as our faculty adviser, never failed to give us the
benefit of her inspiration and the wealth of good ideas which she is known to possess.
VVe hope that the girls will keep up the good work next year in a way which will
make the other organizations look to their laurels.
VVe, the Seniors of Adrian High School, wish to express our thanks to Mr.
Angell, the manager of the Croswell Theatre, who has so kindly given, us one-half of
the money we have obtained from selling tickets to moving pictures at his theatre.
He has certainly helped us on our way to VVashington. The parents and friends
who bought these tickets are also given our deepest thanks.
The dinner given the Seniors by the Rotarians and the Exchangites at the Masonic
Temple, Ihlay 6, was greatly enjoyed and a deep impression was made by the speaker,
Mr. Edward Kelsey, of Toledo, Ohio. The members of the graduating class will
long recall this occasion with pleasure. The Rotarians and the Exchangites have our
appreciation.

THE SPICE OF LIFE
From eastern shores the fragrant spice
Is borne across the sea in ships,
And hands adept in cookery
Fashion sweet morsels for our lips
As aromatic as the Wine
Of Indian air the poets sing,
And so life has its zip and zest
From just this touch of seasoning.
Life needs another kind of spice,
So season it with laugh-ter dearsl
We need the benizon of.jokes,
Yes, even jokes that bring the tears,
Side-splitting thrusts of give and take,
And, too, reminders droll or smart
Of care-free days and happy hours
IVhen not a grief weighed down the heart.
Well, here Without apologies
Our little grist comes to the mill,
Our sheaf of jokes, our bales of spice
From sunlit shores of fine good will.
Ye eds have not exactly torn
Their raven hair from mooring yet
But, laugh a little or laugh long,
They've had a lot of fun, you betl

Systematic saving provides the
most certain road to financial independ-
ence that has ever been discovered. No
other method has proven so sure, so safe.
No young man who gives a moment's

ticing thrift every Week of the year.
