H. S. do constitute this as our LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT hereby revoking any and all former wills by us at any time hereto- fore made. After the payment of our just debts and graduation charges and expenses we give and bequeath and devise as follows: First: To the Class of 1930, we give and bequeath a part of our dignity and nobleness as Seniors that the underclassmen may have cause to revere them. Second: To the English Department we give and bequeath a copy of the Gold Bng that that organization may at last reap the benefit of a true literary gem. Third: To the Class of 1933 we give and bequeath our cherished emblem, the BLUE and the GOLD, that its beauty may endure through the years to come. Fourth: To the Faculty we give and devise a portion of our vast fund of know- ledge lest in the event of our ravages having depleted their store of learning, they as well as students to come may not suffer the bliss of ignorance. Fifth: To Miss Upham we give and bequeath a gilt-edged, leather-bound copy of Allan and Greenoitgh, that she may administer efficiently to the needs of future Latin enthusiasts, the only true seekers of the light of learning. Sixth: To future Wit Editors of the Graphic we give and devise a part of Charles Alonzo LeClair's super-abundance of humor in order that smiles may continue to adorn the faces of those who shall read Pen Pointe. Seventh: To the Glee Club we give a copy of the Soap Song from Lux. Eighth: To Stephen Whicher we give and bequeath a long piece of string which we hope shall aid him in remembering to report for orchestra practice. Ninth: To George Pease we bequeath half of Francis Nloorels surplus altitude with the hope that he earnestly strive upward day by day. Tenth: To Anne Crandelmere we give and bequeath Ruth Redman's newly acquired wave with the best wishes for its continued success. Eleventh: To Howard Peckham we bequeath and devise some of Howard Chenowethis sylph-like grace. Twelfth: To all "Les Miserables', who are "letting it grow" we bequeath a portion of Janice Nlunsonls bobbie-pins. ' Thirteenth: To Miss Churchill we bequeath a new trio of German musqueteers. Fourteenth: To the Graphic office we bequeath a new lounge which may rc- place the one lone rocker which has so faithfully done its duty through so many long years.

Eighteenth: To Doris Redman we bequeath Sophie Kosenski's ability to forget to remember with the hope that the said ability may sometime be of use. Nim'teemh.' To Nlr. Brown we give and bequeath a large bouquet of uforget- us-notsl' that he may have some cause to remember the class of 1929.

With this he left me and I remained to bewail my terrible fate. Alas! Too well I knew I could not hope for the sudden gift of divination and yet to fail to see into the future meant death or worse at the hands of I-Iarvey's hired highwaymen. Inwardly I struggled to make my benumbed brain think but it could hold only the one thought -tomorrow they go "boom and you faw down." I rushed to the window to im- plore the aid of Phoebus Cand to count the sun spots.D I leaned forward holding out my arms to the sun-god in the approved manner denoting supplication and was strongly considering donning a pair of smoked glasses when the raised window fell with a bang catching my hapless neck in its tender embrace. Nly Adam's apple was crushed and something from its ruins tickled down my throat, which tasted peculiarly like cider. Then CI,d be willing to take an oath on it but I never swearj the sun fell and I felt myself falling after it. ' I awoke in the gutter of a strange city just in time to save myself from the hands of a benevolent gentleman wearing the insignia of the society for the pre- vention of Cruelty to Animals.

' The first three games of the season resulted in ties. Turners Falls was held to a O-O tie in a game featuring the fierce tackling of Gilbert and the backfield work of Keedy. The South Deerheld game which also resulted in a scoreless tie was played on a wet slippery field which slowed the game up. Sullivan and Griffin played well in this game. - VVest Springfield was played with a 6-6 tie in a fast and exciting game which was thrilling throughout. Harvey, Roberts, Wlolcott and Keedy all played well. The first victory of the year was a 44-O defeat of New Salem. New Salem was inexperienced and lacked punch. Vic Tidlund, sophomore halfback featured with his long runs. Orange, the next victim, was swamped 58-O in a game of which "Chug', Keedy was the individual star scoring a total of 36 points. ln a game which saw the return of Kelly and Landis to the lineup, the A. H. S. team defeated Northampton 13-12. The game was the fastest and the most thrilling played this year and every member of the team played inspired football. The work Of Scott Harvey at center and of Roberts and Griffin at the ends and of Keedy, Kelley, Landis and Sullivan in the baclcfield were especially outstanding. QE 59 HQ I- --.- - Q66 Qfmfd Qing - - -- 1 fclfieffmll USING the majority of games played, the A. H. S. basketball team ex- perienced a rather disasterous season. In the Hampshire League the team gave a poor exhibition winning only two games out of eight played. Smith Academy who won the league champion- ship, was the first in the league to defeat us. They defeated us 23-10. Next South Deerfield took over toll by a 33-16 score. Qur boys played a wonderful game in the first half but went to pieces in the last half. Smith School then defeated us 15-14. This game was a thriller and was won by a lucky long shot in the last ten seconds ofplay. Hopkins took us into camp by a score of 2,3-19. A week later at Hopkins we turned the tables and won our first league game 15-13. Encouraged by this we traveled to Smith School and defeated them 14-11. But that was as far as we got in the league. South Deerfield defeated us in a thrilling game, on our own floor, 16-15. ln the last league game Smith Academy defeated us 30-12. In other games played we lost four and won two. New Salem was defeated in the first game of the season 27-21. Technical and Commerce High Schools of Springfield both snowed us under by the scores of 26-12 and 34-4 respectively. We were defeated at West Springfield 38-16 but managed to annex a victory from them on our own court, by a score of 23-19. in our final game. Capt. Keedy,Sievers, and Tidlund all played excellent games at guard and with such stars as Nfacfiimmie and Landis at the forwards and Gilbert at center we should have had a more favorable season but the breaks seemed to be all against us and we can only look forward to a better season next year, when Henry Landis who played splendidly all year will lead his mates as captain. of 60 go Q if 1 1 s 1 K l 5 1 1 f 1 l 7 - 3566 QQUM Qzzg E Yhzfeball HE A.
