T wenty-one Three years and nine months ago the grades sent forth into this high school a new class, conceived in ignorance, and dedicated to the proposition that both Seniors and Freshmen are created equal. Since then we have been engaged in a great civil war, testing whether this class or any class so conceived and so dedicated can endure against the faculty and five per cent. We are now leaving the great battlefield of that war. We have come to say farewell to that field where we have struggled and frolicked that the name of Athens High School might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we do this, but in a larger sense, we cannot edu- cate the Freshmen, we cannot instruct the Juniors, we cannot greatly better this high school. The brave students of the past who struggled here have immortal- ized A. H. S. far above our power to add or detract. Athens High will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what we did here. It is for us, the going, to here dedicate ourselves to the unfinished task of education which this faculty has thus far so nobly carried on. It is for us to here dedicate ourselves to the great work remaining before us, that from these walls of learning we take increased devotion to that cause for which the faculty gave their full meas- ure of devotion. We here highly resolve that this class, under the faculty, shall have a new desire for education, and that this school, by the students, of the stu- dents, and for the students, shall not perish from the earth. —Mary Peoples. Twenty-two Class Prophecy Ladies and gentlemen, in order to fully acquaint you with my identity and the reason I am writing of the persons whose names you will find mentioned herein, I will try to explain myself and my reason for existing. My name is Skygack, and I am the first visitor on this planet from that remote unit of the solar system. Mars. Since landing here I have often thought that I would like to write con- cerning the most popular and prominent people I have met here. I arrived on this planet in South America, in a sparsely populated section of the Chilean Andes, and the first occupants of this globe whom I cast my eyes upon were two men with long hair and bearded faces, who introduced themselves to me as mining engineers, and being the most prominent in their profession today, I know you will have no trouble in ascertaining their identity. They instructed me as to the best way which I should follow to find a seaport. I took their advice, and eventually came to the town of Saylorsville, where I met several unimportant personages. A few days later I set sail on the steamer Panama, bound for San Francisco. I was very interested in the commander of this vessel, Captain Peter Collins, who proved to have a very wide knowledge of men and affairs. Several other inter- esting people whom I met on this trip were seven renowned New York capitalists, George Banks, Paul Cotner, Dick Faubion, Eph. Shirley, Ellis Woodworth, Carl Ramsey, and William Witt, who had, as I understood it, come into their immense fortunes by financing the invention of a noiseless soup spoon by one Messiah Kech- ickian. Also on board the Panama there was a party of missionaries, returning to their native land after sojourning among the Hottentots of South America for several years. Their chief, the Rev. Darrel Herron, I found a very interesting man, and his colleagues, although members of the fairer sex, were very interesting and polite, and great interest was shown by them in my lectures about the people of Mars. The most prominent ladies in the party, which numbered nearly fifty, were: Frances Devlyn, Beryl Cone, Helen Copeland, Myrta Ashworth, Mabel Wagner, Ila Beal, Ethel Beekman, Della Clifford, Lucille Hunter, and Mary Law- head. Upon arriving at San Francisco several days later, I rode in one of the B. F. Taxicabs (famous over the entire country for their service, and owned by Mr. Hunter Brown and Burdette Foraker) to the Davidson and Kircher Bros. Hotel, the most magnificent in the state. Everything and everybody seemed very excited at this time over the coming presidential election between Miss Marian Bush, candidate of the new Universalist Party, and Miss Mary Peoples, of the Anti-Cigarette Party. However, as I was not very interested in the politics of the country (they being entirely controlled by women at this time, the most prom- inent of these feminine politicians being Miss Dorothy Slutz, Miss Dorothy Kirch- er, and Miss Madge Wyatt), I paid no further attention to the election. Several weeks later I left San Francisco and journeyed to Denver, going by air in one of the well-known passenger aeroplanes owned and controlled by Mr. Chester Edgar and Mr. Richard McKinstrv. Upon arriving in Denver I was very much surprised to find a man still holding the office of mayor in that city. Mr. Littler proved himself to be a very interesting and sociable person, as did hiis secretary, Mr. Harold Liggett. While in Denver I spent a very enjoyable evening at the Graham Theatre, owned and operated by the Messrs. Clinton and Harold Twenty-three Graham. A very interesting dance executed by Miss Blanche Riley and Miss Doris Cameron proved the feature of the evening, although the Klingenberg sisters, with their wonderful trained animals, likewise proved very interesting. Later in the week I had the pleasure of meeting several of the world-famous physicians and scientists, namely: Hon. Gordon Bush, Vercoe Murphy, Dr. Devello McKinley, Floyd Brown, Floyd Dinsmore, and Ernest Robinson. I was much taken by Dr. McKinley, and the-next day I visited his hospital and met several of his most reliable nurses, among whom were the Misses Dorothy and Caryl Dent, Dorothy Fisher, and Francis Lee. I next boarded a fast aeroplane bound for Columbus, Ohio. I arrived in that city several hours later. In this city I was extensively entertained, and met many wonderful people, this city now being the social center of the country since the national capital had been located here several years earlier. Among those whom I met of considerable importance were: Messrs. Wyatt Cunningham and Wynne Vernon; the Misses Beulah Jennings, Nellie McCall, Ethel Mansfield, Gertrude and Margaret Pritchard, Edith .Pick- ering, Helen Porter, and Lucille Blackwood, all connected in the social life of the capital. While in Columbus I also had the pleasure of meeting the two greatest ball players in the world, members of the world’s champion team, the Columbus “Sen- ators, ” namely, Harold Russell and Clarence Pidcock. It was here also that I met the leaders of the great social movement which was then sweeping the country (that women should choose the man they wanted to marry instead of the old- fashioned mode then in existence). The leaders of this movement were the Misses Grace Saunders, Winifred Stephenson, Marian Watkins, and Florence West. —Homer Johnson. i Twenty-four rema T wenly-five PIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIMI....I' 11 HIM I mm mi n mu mi 11 llliinn 111 Twenty-six REMA q3S- Twenty-seven Mr. A.

And do you remember how the upperclassmen would tell us the wrong rooms, and how Miss Schloss would just naturally snap our heads off if we dared to even whisper ? Of course, no one wants to remember that they had to go through the Freshie stage, but when we look back, we have happy memories of those days, and now that we are Juniors, we feel that we must laugh at the new Freshies. If you don’t think that we are a faithful and steady bunch, just notice that Paul and Gail are standing “side by each” in the Freshie picture. We have some very noted people in our class, too. We have the athletic stars, “Boobic” and “YZ,” our president; and everyone knows that John Bolin, Jean Gist, Baker Young and “Wob” Hall, not to mention others, became famous in the Junior play this year. We think we have a dandy class, even if Banksy and a few more, by some hook or crook, were so brilliant as to leave the rest of their class trudging along while they became Seniors. And nobody has anything on us, for we even have some world war veterans in our midst, to say nothing of Seth Lewis, who has a war all his own each day with his teachers. Now, friends, this is the best one yet—guess who our class teacher is—Mr. A. B. Mackie (A. B. meaning “ always busy”)-. He would almost say we were the quietest bunch in school during session time, but nevertheless we are the objects of his “bawling outs,” as anyone who takes modern history under him will tell you. We are all looking forward to the time next year when we will be Seniors su- preme. Won’t we feel big? We know the faculty will hate to lose us, but then we can’t stay on indefinitely, even if it will be a sad leave-taking. —Jane Dew. Class History We, the Sophomores of Athens High School, appeared upon this hill wrapped in insignificance, in September of the year nineteen hundred and eighteen. I believe we felt much the same as foreigners might upon entering our great metrop- olis, New York. We felt very small, indeed, but I can assure you we soon got over that. We began to work hard and play fair, and to feel that we were a part of this high school, and we soon entertained a desire to help make this high school all that it ought to be. Before we had been organized long, with Jimmie Basom as our gallant leader, we craved a party, and therefore brought about a most successful affair in spite of the fact that we were deprived of three delicious-looking cakes. I suppose you have all noticed how the Freshmen are used in high school. Well, we got our share of the bumps that year, and I believe we established a most pleas- ing reputation in the school, and that is about all any class accomplishes in its first year. The next year we came back feeling much bigger than we had the previous year, and we were prepared also to treat our brother Freshmen much in the same manner as we had been treated. We chose Carl Brooks for our president, defeated the Senior class in the basket ball class tournament, and gave another most successful party. We had made up our minds also to be the very best class that ever departed from this school, and although we would all love to receive our diplomas from Mr. Morgan, to whom we are exceedingly devoted, more than from any other superintendent this high school shall have in the-future, we are all looking forward to two more prosper- ous and beneficial years in Athens High School. —Helen Peoples.

He is the only man who ever graduated from this school with the honor of winning a loving cup. During his Senior year he was captain of the football, baseball, basket ball, and track teams. From here he went to Ohio Wesleyan, and won his letter in baseball and basket ball. His record at Athens High is one to be envied by every high school coach. He turned out two championship teams, one in football, the other in basket ball. Mackie uses something to instill “pep” into a team that stays with them through the entire season. It is not definite whether or not he will return next fall, but every effort will be made to keep such a man as Mackie. Forty-six CAPTAIN COTNER Captain “Rats” Cotner closed his football career at Athens High in 1919. We do not know how Paul got his nickname, but we do know how he got the high honor of being chosen leader of our celebrated ath- leticteam. Heplayedall fouryearsat Athens High, and has won a name for himself in athletic history. When the call for football candidates was given, only three letter men were available for the team. Many peo- ple were pessimistic regarding a successful season, but when consid- ering football players, the name of “Rats” as captain signalized that the raw material would begin with a good leader. Paul played a good, steady game. He had the weight, and many op- ponents felt his strength. He stood the punishment without flinching, and at all times was one of the out- standing players on the Red and Black Tearn. He has a pleasant na- ture, and his smile will never be forgotten. Paul has been a great credit to Athens High, and Athens High feels the honor of having such a worthy leader. He led his teams through the victories that brought the championship of South- eastern Ohio to Athens High.’ Forty-seven John Kircher, Center. John was the other man on the squad who played the full thirty-two quarters. His size and fight combined made him almost indispensable as a pivot man. The center of the line was plunged for gains very few times, and one reason for this was John Kircher. He has played two years for Athens High, and the Huntington game saw the close of his football career at Athens High School. Harley Littler. Full Back. “Dutch” at full back was our most consistent ground gainer. Whenever we needed a few yards for a first down or a touchdown, all the quarter back had to do was to call “Dutch’s” signal, and almost every time he succeeded in gaining the re- quired distance. Football followers who have seen “Dutch” in action declare that he was the. best all-around player on high school teams this season. “Dutch” was picked for the All-South- eastern Team this year, and we all know that he deserved it. After playing three years of football for A. H. S., “Dutch” leaves us this year, and it will take a man to fill his place. Burdette Foraker, Half Back and Full Back “Shorty” was a very enthusiastic worker, one of those fighting, never-give-up players who helped to make the season a success. “Shorty” could always be counted on to do his share of ground gaining, and when called upon, he responded with a will. “Shorty ” never knew the meaning of the word quit, and his fight lasted through it all. This is his last year to appear in a Red and Black uniform, and his graduation will mean the loss of a reliable man. Forty-eight Chester Edgar, Right Tackle Chester came to Athens High from Commerce High, Columbus, and he was, no doubt, the most reliable man on the line. Although he had a bad knee most of the season, he never slackened his pace once, and when he graduates this June, a valuable man will be lost. Chester will be out for Ohio’s Varsity next year, and we all wish him the best of luck. “Gist” Oldfield, Right End and Half Back. One of the lightest, yet scrappiest, and most dependable men on the team was “Gist.” His end was always a poor place for an opponent to run, and when it came to catching passes and going down under punts, “Gist” was always there. The team has shown its confidence in him by electing him captain of next year’s eleven. “Gist” is working hard to get some old men back in school, and he promises a winning team. “Pete” Collins, Quarter and Half Back. “Pete” has played his last game of football for Athens, and when he graduates, a valuable man will be lost. Being capable of playing almost any position on the eleven, “Pete” was a very valuable man. Always full of fight, he was a great aid in instilling “ pep ” into the team. “Pete” has played four years of football for Athens High, and was captain of last year’s team. Although “Pete” is very light, we expect to hear much of him in college athletics. Forty-nine Homer Johnson, Right End. “Jake” was our fastest end, and was always the first man down under our punts. “Jake” played a great game all season; in fact, his kind of playing is called consistent rather than spec- tacular. This is his last year, and his “ pep ” and fight will be greatly missed when it comes time to hand out-the suits next fall. ' Baxter Judd, Right Guard. Although Judd was seldom in the lineup at the start of the game, the way he responded when given a chance was indeed creditable. This was his second year, and next fall we expect him to show great stuff. Harold Wise, Quarter and Half Back. Although Wise did not appear on the field at the first of the season, he showed great stuff when he did come out. This was his first year on the gridiron, and the football fans say that he is going to make one of the best quarter backs in the state next season. Wise distinguished himself by run- ning through the entire Huntington Team for a touchdown. Harold will be a welcome man next year when the first call is sent out for football candidates. Fifty dlREMA Richard Faubion, Right Guard and Right Tackle. Dick held down both guard and tackle positions at different times this year, and did a very cred- itable job at both. Although not classed as a heavyweight, he was always ready to shoulder his share of the work on the line. He will prob- ably appear next year in uniform, and a berth on the team will be waiting for him. Richard McKinstry, Right End. “Dick” played right end, and was one of the best players on the team. Handicapped by broken arches, he went through the entire season in good shape. He was always dependable and alert on the defense, stopping all end runs that came his way, and an excellent receiver of a for- ward pass. His playing equaled that of any other end in Southeastern Ohio. He is a Senior, and has honored the Red and Black by his excellent work on the gridiron in his last year. “Bill” Witt, Left Guard. “Bill” was down on the field, rain or shine night after night, for it was his last chance to make a letteT, and he took advantage of this op- portunity. “Bill” was out last year, but could not secure a berth on account of inexperience. “Bill” will be missed by the coach and men next fall. Fifty-one Fifty-two Football Season Last fall Athens High School placed upon the football field one of the best teams in her history. Although not quite as heavy as the teams of preceding years, it possessed much speed and real football ability. Every man on the team was a star at his position. Our team won the Southeastern Ohio championship this year, with much credit to the school, as well as to themselves. The schedule was a hard one, and only a team with fight and grit could face such a schedule and come out on top. The first two games of the season were easy victories, Athens defeating Logan by a score of 59 to 0, and Rio Grande College bv 12 to 0. But with Feth out of the game, and a few men with bad ankles, Athens met defeat at Williamstown, G to 0. It was a slow game, and Williamstown scored in the last three minutes of play. To make up for this one defeat, Athens next beat Zanesville by a big score. They were never hard pushed, and the game ended with the score 44 to 0. Aquinas was too sure of a victory, and came on the field with over-confidence. This is the first time Athens High ever defeated a Columbus team, but not the last, and next we hope to see East and West on our schedule. The visitors were able to negotiate but few first downs in the entire game, while Athens was quick to turn everj' Aquinas misplay into a scoring possibility, and the final score was 22 to 0. One of the best games played on the local field was that one in which Athens met Portsmouth. The visitors came with the intention of carrying home the bacon, but our team was out to even old scores with Portsmouth, and they did it with a 23 to 7 victory. Portsmouth had a heavy team, and one that was well- coached, so Athens had to fight and fight hard to keep her record clear. This game won the championship of Southeastern Ohio for Athens, and it will be long remembered. The team left Athens in the evening for Parkersburg, where they spent the night, and next morning went on up to Marietta to meet one of the strongest teams in the state. There were many loyal Athens rooters on the sidelines, and the team fought hard to the last whistle, but we need not give an alibi for this defeat, as we all know the details of this game; score, 45 to 0. Closing the season against the strong West Virginia Team, Athens placed her- self among the five strongest teams of the state. Huntington came to Athens with a big team and lots of “pep,” but went home with a defeat of 14 to 7. It rained for two days before this game, and the river flooded the lower end of the field, so the goal posts had to be moved forty yards up the field, and even then the field was half-covered with water before the game was over. The last three plays were made in water eight inches deep, and it afforded great excitement for the fans. The game was close all the way through, and both teams worked like mad. Wise made a wonderful run through the entire Huntington Team for a touchdown, while Littler was the steady ground gainer. Of this year’s team, Faubion, Wise, Judd, Sharp, Brooks, Griffin, F. Oldfield, and G. Oldfield will return to school next year, and the outlook for a championship team is good. So here’s to our coach and the team of 1920, and the best of luck to them all. SCORES.

When the season approached, the attitude of other years pre- vailed in that it was supposed that we would have a good schedule and have con- tests with the other teams of our end of the state. However, when the schedule was announced, it was very apparent that a new athletic policy was being shaped for Athens High. Our schedule this year called for contests with teams from every part of the state. Athens High was no longer to remain a second-rate team, but was ready to take a chance in establishing a state record. Many people pre- dicted defeats, but before the season was half over it was recognized that the Red and Black Team was gaining prestige all over the state. Coach Mackie came with a new stvle of play, and for a time the making of a winning machine was a hard problem.’ Two things attributed largely to the wonderful season gone into history: Athens High had a coach who was a real driver and insisted on his way of doing things. He gave everything he had to his team. No coach could have been more loval and fair in his work. His knowledge of the game is beyond question, and to him goes a lot of praise. On the other hand, there appeared on the court a bunch of candidates willing to undergo the hard grind of the coach. All of these men deserve much praise for their faithful work and willingness to do what was told them. The subs, Bolin, Sharp, Basom, Brooks, Hall, and Dagget must not be forgotten when the great season is thought about. It was a wonderful season. We won the Ohio University tournament for the first time. This triumph came in a year when the competition was keener than any other year. The victory will never be forgotten, because it was won from worthy foes. Our team went into the finals at Cincinnati and at Delaware was rated as one of the best in the state. Athens High is proud, of the record of nine- teen hundred and twenty. Fifty-five Tournament Winners. This is the team that won the Ohio University Tournament of 1920, in which such teams as Lancaster, Canal Winchester, Doane Academy, Parkersburg, and other strong West Virginia teams were represented as well as a great number of small town teams. Athens first drew Woodsficld, defeated it; then Canal Win- chester; then Doane Academy, and finally Portsmouth, a game long to be remem- bered by players and fans alike; score, 23 to 20.

Captain Littler ended his high school career in one more sport at the close of the basket ball season. “Dutch” played the center position. He can be called a great center, although he lacked the height necessary, but as a floor man he could not be excelled. If a record in scoring points were compiled, Littler would rank among the best point “getters” in the state. “Dutch” is an ideal guard, and his great ability marks him for a wonderful career in college. “PETE” COLLINS. Collins finished his fourth year as a member of this year’s five. He has served as captain, and proved worthy of that position. “Pete” belongs to the world of little men, but on a basket ball court he proved equal to any man of any size. He was a scrappy guard, and especially keen in solving the defense of an opposing team. His ability to break up and intercept the ball caused many a team to fail in scoring. “ Pete ” is a Senior, and is worthy of all the credit that can be given him. PAUL COTNER. Cotner is known to you all as All Southeastern guard. He won that distinction by his great playing this year. In other seasons Cotner played the role of a sub, but this year he was the one big man on the Athens High defense. Cotner played stationary guard, and to get near the basket was impossible. He kept the op- ponents at safe distance, and was especially good in taking the ball of the “ bank. ” Cotner is known for his broad smile and kind nature. Added to this personality is the honor of a good, clean, hard fighting. Fifty-seven CLYDE BATTIN. Battin is another All Southeastern player. They say he is the best player that ever trotted out on the basket ball court. He moves like a superman, and people went to games to see his flashy forward work. Besides being a wonderful floor man, “Booby” arched the ball in perfect fashion. Battin is only a Junior, and has another year in which he will again bring glory to his school. He played in almost every game, and stood a hard grinding season in excellent fashion. GEORGE BANKS. Banks for the fourth year wore the Red and Black colors. His ability as a player is well known to all the students in Athens High. When it came to shooting from difficult angles, he ranked among the best. He divided the time at forward with the other forwards, and at times showed his worth. Banks had much trouble in holding the ball under the new pass system, and had to work hard to overcome this difficulty. He will be remembered for his work in the Canal Winchester game during the tournament. HAROLD WISE. Wise is a Junior, and has already put himself in the world of athletic fame. He stands supreme as a floor worker, passes accurately, and, as the girls say, “ Drops them through the basket very pretty.” Wise has another year, and his fame will continue to live. Wise proved the man of the hour in the finale of the Ohio University Tournament. Entering the game handicapped by illness, he made a test of superhuman strength by playing an exceptional game, and his work did much to bring the great honor of championship to Athens High. Fifty-eight RALPH DAVIDSON. Davidson is another Senior who will pass from Athens High this year. He also reported for basket ball, and was a “dark horse” candidate. He must be praised for his faithful work and for giving the best he had. He played the role of a sub and edged into many contests. “ Davy” can be rated as one who did his best to make this year’s team the greatest in the history of the school. EDWARD JENNINGS. “Dutch” Jennings and “Lute” Evans were our cheer-leaders this year, and to them goes the credit for the good, organized cheering that put fear into the hearts of our opponents. Both in white sweaters, they worked like clock-work, and the crowds always responded with a yell that was deafening. They were in evidence at all games and rallies, and never missed a chance to give the team, Mr. Morgan, Mr. Rupp, the speaker, or whoever it might be, a rousing good cheer. JOHN KIRCHER. Kircher answered the call for basket ball men, and was not even considered a strong candidate. However, as the season progressed, his faithful work began to show, and by mid-season he was rated on a par with all others on the quintet. He played a guard, and he deserves a lot of credit for his wonderful showing as a result of only one year at basket ball. Kircher is purely representative of the Athens High spirit, as he was a hard, clean worker, and gave all he had to win a contest. Fifty-nine Sixty Girls’ Basket Ball Team The girls’ basket ball team at Athens High this year has been a success in every sense of the word. Two nights a week were allowed for practice at the armory, and under the efficient coaching of Mr. Mackie and Miss Schloss, a first-class girls’ basket ball team was produced. Dorothy Slutz was elected captain, and Marian Bush manager, and the season started off with a bang when the Senior girls won the inter-class tournament. A game with the college girls was next scheduled at the armory, where the Red and Black defeated the Green and White by a score of 10 to 5. The second game was staged on the college gym floor and was a hard, fast game which ended in a tie; but the Varsity team, in the extra five minutes of play, raised the score to 14 to 10. The last and most interesting game of the season was played at New Straits- ville, our team defeating them by the large score of 15 to 4. New Straitsville had been an undefeated team for two seasons, and claimed the Southeastern Ohio championship; therefore, much credit is due the girls for defeating them. This was the first trip a girls’ team of this high school ever took, also the first time they ever received basket ball ‘‘‘A’s.” The ones proudly wearing them are: Dorothy Slutz, Marian Bush, Frances Devlyn, Julia Porter. Jane Dew, Rcda Watkins. Ruth Porter, Pauline Danford, Lucile Brown, and Mary Klingenburg. Sixty-one Sixty-two Baseball Outlook The coming baseball season should be a success in every way. Although we lost some of our best men last year, we still have the nucleus of a good team in our school. The old men who will be out at the first call are: Wise, Battin, Banks, Littler, Collins, Pidcock, and Foraker; while the men coming out for the first time are: Sharp, Brooks, the Jones twins, and Painter. The Arena goes to press before the season is really started; therefore, we can- not say very much as to the strength of the team, but we have one of the very best coaches in the state, and we know from past experience that he will put the best that is in the men, and himself, on the field for every game. Pidcock should hit his best stride early as he has been working hard all spring to get in good condition. We all know from the past he has the stuff, and can win with the backing he will have. Wise and Oldfield will be ready for the call to help him any time he happens to be “under the weather.” “Gist” Oldfield should get the first call for the center garden job, assisted by Littler in left, and Sharp in right. Wise, Collins. Battin, Banks, Johnson, and Foraker will be seen on the infield, and the fans all know this is a “scrappy ” bunch. We are better off in a financial way than ever before. The Junior class has been kind enough to give the team half the proceeds of their excellent play. This will be a big help in making the season a success. The schedule will be the heaviest that has ever been attempted by the Athens High baseball team. We play John Hancock three games to decide the city cham- pionship. We won last year, and should do the same again with the old-time sup- port of the student body. The other games on our schedule are: Washington C. H., Circleville, Jackson, McConnelsville, and Nelsonville. By this time next year this season will be history, but do not wait until then and look back, but look forward now and see nothing but a good team and the most successful season in the career of Athens High baseball. Give it your best support, and the team is bound to win. The captain of the team has not been elected as yet, but will be just before our first game. Whoever is elected will be a good captain and lead our team to victory, and be assured of the very best support the student body has in its power to give. Let’s go, team. Sixty-three Sixty-four IfeEMA Brown Prizes Prizes for various things during the school year were awarded to the students of Athens High School, June, 1919, by Mr. James D. Brown. Through the kind- ness of Mr. Brown, this has become an annual custom, and one which inspires the greatest effort on the part of the students. Mr. Morgan and the faculty divide the money as they see best, and last year the prizes were awarded as follows: The prize of ten dollars for the boy with the best four-year average was given to Clarence Clifford, who had an average of 92.7%, and Arthur Rhollans won the second prize of five dollars with an average of 92%. Velma Staneart won the ten-dollar first prize for the girls with an average of 95.9%, while Gladys Jones won the second prize of five dollars for a 95.3% average. Erma Comstock should be given honorable mention, as her four-year average was 95.2%. Prizes of five dollars each were given to the best all-around boy and girl in each class below Senior rank. Harley Littler and Beulah Jennings won the prizes in the Junior class; Harold Wise and Jean Gist in the Sophomore class; and Paul Schimpf and Pauline Schimpf in the Freshman class. A prize of ten dollars each was given to the boy and girl exerting the best influence for the good of the school, which were won by Clarence Clifford and Lcnora Van Dyke. The Senior class recorded the best attendance for the year, and received thirty-five dollars; while the Sophomores took the second prize of twenty dollars. Angella Woods won the Declamation Contest, and received a prize of seven and one-half dollars; and Harold Hale, a close second, took the five-dollar prize; while Mabel Wagner won the third two and one-half dollar prize. In the Essay Contest, Angella Woods again won the first prize of. seven and one-half dollars, Clarence Clifford the second five-dollar prize, and Lenora Van Dyke the third two and one-half dollar one. The students of the high school wish to sincerely thank Mr. Brown for making these prizes possible.

Mary Peoples, our able editor-in-chief, and her assistant, Paul Hall, have de- voted their entire time to the paper, and a great deal of credit must be given them for the success of the paper. Harold Liggett was business manager until the second semester, when he left school and could no longer fill this capacity. Ralph Dav- idson, who was then chosen business manager, has proven himself a very able one. Harold Wise and Angella Woods, as advertising managers, have worked their best, and received ads. from practically everyone. John Kirchcr might be called the busiest man in Athens High, since he is always on the jump for the high school interests, and is always willing to help out on the paper. Frances Murch, as literary editor, has given the Megaphone readers a great variety of interesting short stories. Our exchange has also been unlimited. Baker Young displays his well- known and ready wit in editing the joke column. Clyde Battin and Harold Hale surely do use a lot of paint and ink as art editors. The class reporters, Eleanor Phillips, Helen Phillips, Charlotte Jimod, and Katherine McKee, certainly have a difficult position to fill, because upon them goes all the dead work that the rest of the staff cares to give theip. They have proven themselves very faithful and re- liable. Sixty-seven Sixty-eight Troop One Boy Scouts Troop One of the Boy Scouts of Athens, Ohio, was founded by Mr. Chas. Para- dise, a student in the Ohio University, January 18, 1917. No records of the troop are available. Mr. Paradise left town in the spring of 1917, and for several months the troop was without a leader. Mr. Geoffrey F. Morgan, our present superin- tendent, was appointed scout master in May, 1917, and has been in charge of the troop ever since that time. The roll of active members in May, 1917, included the following scouts: Dayton Wise, Ralph Evans, Robert Keenan, Clark Kenney, Clyde Battin, Ralph Johnson, John Bolin, Rholland Jones, Robert Jones, Richard Daggett, Abbott Wilcox, Edward Jennings, Homer Baird, Carl Brooks, Paul Hall, Floyd Brown, James Milliron, Harold Addicott, Llewellyn Evans, Harold Wise, Harold Liggett' Gordon Bush, Ernest Young, Wilson Ator, Otto Lewis, and Jack Rhodes. The troop consists now of forty-eight active members and twenty-four associate membess. The associate members are the pioneer scouts of the troop, consisting of the “Panther,” “Fox,” and “Crow” Patrols that were first formed. Of the active members six are “Life Scouts, three Eagle Scouts, twenty-four First- Class Scouts,” ten “Second-Class Scouts,” and five are “Tenderfoot Scouts.” Perhaps no other troop in America has such a splendid record. Troop One has helped to put Athens on the map by their leadership in the interests of scouting. The first Scout Congress in Southeastern Ohio was held here in 1918, when Troop One took many honors; while two basket ball tourna- ments have been fought out here. Happy and lucky, indeed, is the boy who has had the privilege of being in Troop One under the guidance and leadership of Mr. Morgan. Interested from the depths of his heart in the boys of Athens, his has been the master mind behind all of these activities, and greatly will he be missed when he leaves us this June. ■Sixty-niue Seventy Tan Roland Mr. Morgan, our versatile superintendent, achieved quite a success in the writing and staging of “Tangoland,” a musical comedy in two acts. This was his second success, the first being “The Valley of Hocus Po, ” and it shall long be remem- bered as a leader in the high school dramatics. The plot was unique and full of unexpected twists, while the rapid-fire conversation kept the audience in mirthful suspense. Ezra MeWhaeklc, the sassa- fras king, and his daughter Eleanor come for a visit to the realm of Tangoland, of which Don Sodo di Poppo is the ruler. McWhackle brings with him, besides his fair daughter, Agatha Fidget, his sister-in- law, and many friends. Bobby Hunter is in love with Eleanor, but lacks the necessary funds for marriage, and McWhackle, disliking Bobby, and believing him unable to earn money, agrees to let him marry Eleanor when he has ten thousand dollars. So Bobby arrives on the scene, having shipped as a stowaway, and his friends, Ned Barlow and Dick Baxter, agree to help him win Eleanor by fair means or foul. Now Don Sodo di Poppo is a great stager of bull fights, and has promised Ezra McWhackle that he should see a good one, but no one can be found who will fight “El Toro,” the great bull. The Don offers a prize of ten thousand dollars to anyone who will meet and conquer the bull. Bobby sees his chance to get the money, and at tire end of the first act presents himself to the Don as the champion toreador of NelsonviUe. He immediately starts learning the “tricks of the trade,” assisted by his friends, Ned and Dick, and affords one of the most amusing scenes of the comedy. Punko Bevo, walking delegate of the Bull Fighters’ Union Number Twenty-Three, threatens to call a bull fighters’ strike for ninety-nine years if a “scab” is allowed to fight in the arena. So Don Sodo di Poppo is forced to pay Bobby the ten thousand dollars to cancel the contract, and thus he wins the girl. The Dance of the Rose, by Jean Gist and Richard Daggett, was one of the best features of the show, and both entered into the dance with grace and agility. Mr. Morgan deserves warm congratulations, not only for his clever comedy, but for the thoroughness with which he and Miss Anna Pickering coached the cast. Quite aside from the excellent cause for which the proceeds of this show were used, it was good enough to draw a capacity house even on the second night. Cast.

The players surpassed all expectations in the handling of their parts, and showed the well-rounded result of Mr. Morgan’s coaching. The part of the lion, John Burkctte Ryder, was played remarkably well by John Bolin; and Mary McGrainer as Mrs. Ryder deserves honorable mention. Jean Gist as Shirley, the mouse, was the idol of the audience throughout the performance, and won all hearts by her easy stage appearance and acting. The part of Jefferson Ryder was excellently played by Paul Hall, who threw himself into the part with spirit. Gail Quest as Eudoxea, the hired maid, proved that she had real ability as a comedian, and together with Baker Young as the eccentric Fitzroy Bagley, they kept the audience in a good humor. Homer Baird as the Rev. Pontifex Deetle, Dorothy Andrews as Jane Deetle, and Mildred Mansfield as Miss Nesbit, “ the banker’s daughter, ” also supplied the comedy part, while Richard Daggett as Judge Rossmore, Julia Porter as Mrs. Rossmorcv and Lawrence Worstell as Sen- ator Roberts played their parts well, with all the actions of elderly people. Harold Wise, who played Richard Stott, even surpassed his former reputation, and Cath- rine Overmeyer made her stage debut as Kate Roberts. The above were well supported by Jane Dew, who was the maid; Joe Edleman as the expressman; and Robert Keenan, the butler. Seventy-two Friendship Gircle Athens High School has a girls’ organization of which we can be proud. The Friendship Circle was organized this year with more honest-to-goodness “pep” than ever before. Beulah Jennings is president, Angella Woods secretary, and Ruth McCormick treasurer. At the beginning of the year a meeting was held for initiation. The impressive candle service of the Y. W. C. A. was used. The advisory board and the cabinet were present and held the lighted candles. Later in the year we had a sale in connection with the Girl Scouts, which was even more of a success than we had hoped. The first big event was a “ Kid Party, ” attended by nearly ninety girls. First and second prizes were given to the “Kiddiest Kids.” Mildred Young and Jane Cooper won them, although the large number of clever costumes made it hard for the teachers to decide the winners. Speaking of the teachers, Miss Grover and Miss Osbourn could not be told from the other “kids, ” and fought over the teddy bears and dolls with the rest of them. More parties and hikes have been planned for the near future. Meetings are held every two weeks in the Methodist Church, when topics of interest to girls are discussed. Even the Freshmen take part in these discussions, and we have found several promising speakers among them. With such good material the Friendship Circle cannot help but be a success for several years to come. Seventy-three aAREMA Social News SENIORS. A while before Christmas the Seniors got the party spirit, and decided to have a Christmas party. And they did. It was a real and “reg'lar” party. It came off in that spacious hall commonly known to Athens High as “the lab, ” but you would never have recognized the old place. The lights were covered with red and green paper, and long strings of snowy popcorn completed the dainty dec- orations. The evening started with a bang. A game of wits and memory came first. In this Helen Copeland was winner, and was given a beautiful (?) box of Lowney’s best, which was presented by Mr. Morgan Games, music, and dancing made the evening unusually enjoyable. Fruit punch was served throughout the evening, and after a nerve-racking game of Faith, Hope and Charity, a light collation was served. The climax of the evening was reached, however, when Coach Mackie, Mr. Wible, and our dignified Senior teachers, seated on high stools each endeavored to eat a longer string of popcorn than the other, in the given time. Mr. Wible, however, because of a more efficient system, put away the most, and since he had already shown that he was the possessor of some sense, he was given one more (cent) to add to his collection. JUNIORS. The afternoon before the Easter vacation someone was heard to remark that the Athens County Fair must be in full sway, as they had noticed several country lads and lassies gloriously gowned in overalls and gingham aprons and sunbonnets. Oh, what a dreadful mistake! Here it was only the Juniors properly gowned to have an orange roll for Mr. Mackie. But that didn’t keep us from getting up the next morning at an unearthly hour and going on a hike. We had our breakfast of fried eggs, bacon, buns, weiners, pickles, ’n everything out on East Hill. We had a glorious time. Our play was a big success, and soon we are going to give a party. SOPHOMORES. . On Thursday, January 22, 1920, the Sophomore gave their class party in the corridor of the high school building. The hall was effectively decorated in the class colors, old rose and Alice blue. The guests gathered about seven-thirty, and the party began with a grand march led by Jennie Graham and Mr. Rupp. The remainder of the evening was pleasantly spent in games, music and contests. Later refreshments were served, and the party adjourned, voting the affair quite a success. FRESHMEN. The social bee in the Freshman bonnet didn’t do so much buzzing this year. The only real organized stunt they accomplished was a party given December 19, 1919. Our faithful teachers, Mr. Morgan, Mr. Rupp, Mr. Wible, Miss Schloss, Miss Nelle Pickering and Miss Anna Pickering, entered into the merriment with good will. Mr. Morgan entertained us by playing on his xylophone. The new laboratory could hardly be recognized with the decorations of the class colors of rose and grey. The Christmas tree was laden with very appropriate presents, such as blocks, pacifiers and milk bottles. All-day suckers were passed as favors, much to the delight of the faculty, and the remainder of the evening was spent in lively games. Refreshments consisting of ice cream cones and cookies were served, which brought the delightful evening to a climax. Seventy-four Alumni Many are the people who look with backward glances toward the happy days spent at Athens High School. Many of these former students are in the different colleges and universities, and many are out in the “wide, wide world.” We wish we knew where they all are, and what they have accomplished since beginning their different careers, and would like to appeal to all former graduates to keep in touch with their Alma Mater, so that loyal Athenians may share in their joys, sorrows, and their successes. One of our oldest alumnae is Miss Helen Walker, who graduated with the class of ’59. She makes her home in Athens, and is very much interested in the welfare of our city and school. Hazel Morris is teaching in New York.
