We commend to you, friends and underclassmen, the care of the treasure chest of golden opportunities which awaits you. lgF ::::smamHRENRlmE ONTENTS ---- nmgumrv CLASSES Ammm vmus mammmmmcs 0 4 X' . wi, ky' , 9 W' U AHS. l924 DEDICATION As an acknowledgement of our appreciation to one who has un- tiringly labored for us and with us during our four happy years in Athens High School, we, the class of 1924, respectfully dedicate this volume of the ARENA to Mr. Stailey, our Superintendent.

As it nears completion we begin to wonder how we shall feel when we bid good-bye to the old building on the hill. Our old Alma Mater has witnessed many scenes of vic- tory, and, we must add, a few ofbitter defeat. For many years Athens High School has been an honored seat of learning in this community. Now it is to be given a new home, better adapted to our increasing departments. Among the new con- veniences which will be ours are a large auditorium and a well equipped gym. Every person will have an individual locker which will prevent the disappearance of his belongings. Limitations on elective branches will be greatly decreased: study halls will be less crowded: the library will be larger and better equipped. These things seem wonderful to us as we hear of them, but they can be fully comprehended only when we can make use of them. As the time approaches when our new abode is to be opened, what are our feelings? Are they regret or expectation? Sorrow or joy? Or perhaps both? Yes. we impatiently await our en- trance to the new home, but at the same time we regret leaving the scene of so many pleasant memories. Page Ten Q 3 0 ,. W I Q09 -, Q K ui Q .W A1-1S. I924 Rf fx W.

HARSHMAN Principal Rapidly acquainting himself with the inter- ests of the Athens High School, Mr. I-larshman proved a worthy successor to Mr. Rupp. Al- though he has held the ofiice of principal but one year. he has already endeared himself in the hearts of the student-body and has been a kind and considerate friend. It is the hope of the entire community that he will see fit to con- tinue in this office for many years. MR. C. E. STAILEY Superintendent The saddest information received during the past few months was the news of the resigna- tion of Mr. Stailey. Commcncing his duties as superintendent when the Class of '24 entered High School. Mr. Stailey has been a faithful friend and councilor of the student-body. It can sincerely be said that. with him at the helm, the Athens High School has rapidly advanced into the rank of the foremost high schools in Ohio. His departure will be long mourned by all those who have been under his supervision. MISS PICKERING Assistant Principal Athens High School is most fortunate in havf ing as faithful and conscientious a stand-by as Miss Pickering. As a faculty member, her services are countless and of an inestimable value. To the student-body she is not only an instructor and advisor but also a willing and loyal friend.

FACULTY Despite the fact that the Athens High School is known far and Wide for countless athletic and literary achievements, a large portion of her fame is due to the faculty.

Good-bye. , Page Twenty-nine 1 IIRINR SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Without, the world seemed to be undergoing a great change. Rain beat against the plate glass windows, and the wind moaned mournfully among the swaying pine trees that surrounded the finest estate in the county. Vlftihin the spacious home, which was set back from the road in dignified seclusion, sat the owner with a book in his hands. A great clap of thunder, followed by a deluge of rain against the loose window shutters, caused the reader to thrust his book aside. Who could read on such a restless'night? , The fire-light playing on the dark wainscoating. the one rose-shaded lamp, and the bright pictures on the wall contrasted with the outside world and conspired to send the man who owned them into the pleasant land of dreams. The fanciful fire became a stage on which appeared happy memories of the long ago school days in Athens High School. First in this flaming red and black setting came a chorus of lads and lasses in knickera- bockers and hair ribbons. the Freshmen of A. H. S. They made their bow when the leaves of autumn were trying to brighten a quickly paling earth with their ruddy hues. Each day these industrious. youthful students entered the study hall with Algebra and Latin books under their arms. All the usual joys and problems were theirs during that first year. The pages of the calendar turned rapidly and the Fall of '21 drew nigh. As Sopho- mores they were very much like preceeding classes. The class had the distinction of having the least number of tardy marks as has been the case each year. Daily the Sophomores were vested with new responsibilities which they carried with ease. Then came a long Summer, at the end of which the background was painted again with the bright colors of September. There on the hill, looking over the town, stood a throng of students waiting for the door to be opened. The people who were last year's Sophomores were now' Juniors. They began at once to take their proper place in the school. The Junior Prom, the outstanding social feature of the year, was a huge success. The Carnival was a merry fun- fest with the usual fortune teller. confetti, and merry-makers. Different members of this class took part in debates, athletics and operettas. Many were elected to the National Honor Society. These three years soon slipped into the background and when the curtain rose again the promised land of the, Seniors was disclosed. The familiar forms wove in and out on the stage with the determination to play their parts well without being prompted. '. The best scenes were reproductions of those which occurred in the session room, where many weighty problems were solved. Should caps and gowns be worn No. Woixld another carnival be a success? It was. Robert Dixon, class president. was an excellent manager. and Miss Jewett, who was chosen class teacher, made a good director and coach. Mingled among the other colors of the setting appeared in artistic designs the Senior colors of blue and gold. For many minutes the now absorbed man gazed at the quarreling flames until another scene passed before his eyes. This took place upon the athletic field. At the side of the field, and surrounded by a human snake which wreathed about them many times, stood the team which represented Athens High. It was captained by Sereno Shafer, a Senior, who with many others won laurels for the Senior class. This class took the lead in all the activities of the school. Some of them came near the end of that glorious fourth act and were manifested in those delightful dramatic productions The Bo's'n's Bride in which many Seniors participated, and in The Tailor-Made Man, which put to the supreme test the dramatic talent of the Senior class. And the man saw once more, in the dying embers, his classmates as they acted their parts in that final setting. The members of this Senior class so lived and labored that, when the time came for them to pass from the stage after the last curtain call, they had left something behind. by which they would be remembered, to pay in part for the treasures they had won and carried away. It may have been because of the sheer joy of these memories. or sadness at the thought of leaving them. that the now prominent man arose and half whispered to himself, Those happy days! The wonderful school and class spirit! Then, walking noiselessly over the soft rugs to the piano, he opened it and with gliding hngers played his Alma Mater. ' MARY SHAFER. '24. Page Thirty A.HS.

I924 THE TALE OF THE CALDRON It was midnight.. In the center of a great dark forest a small fire sputtered, then flared. Over this fire hung a massive caldron in which some magic bever- age was brewing. Suddenly, as from the sky, there appeared by the now bright flame the stooped figure of an old, old woman. As the liquid began to boil, the old woman bent over the caldron, and began this tale: Hear ye! Oh. people of the silent forest. so that thou mayest cherish this, the secret of the caldron. in thy hearts. In the year nineteen hundred and twenty, on a warm autumnal day, there came, in fear and trembling, to the portals of Athens High School a band of the world's most gifted young people. Upon their arrival they were greeted by cries of 'Freshief and were directed to Room ll. But undaunted. they advanced in intelligence and ability. Before many days had passed, under the leadership of John Algeo as president, these 'Fresh- ies' staged the first of their original and famous class parties. This was only the beginning of the year's successes. Repeatedly these people came to the front. The following year, with Ted Schmidt as the chosen leader, these young people climbed to even greater fame. A great percent of their number was awarded honor certincates at the end of the first semester. this proving that in this group gray matter was plentiful. Again the annual class party was voted a great success by all those present. ' For the third year of their high school career these students re-elected Ted Schmidt as president. In November, they gave another successful class party which was opened to all high school students. In the Spring, stage talent being evident. a brilliant cast was sele:ted for the Junior Play. This play was a triumph and carried with it -an almost professional atmosphere. Witli this outlook the Senior year looms bright in the future and these people will soon further prove, by their accomplishments. their ability. As the old, old woman spoke these words. the flame vanished, and the forest was again dark and still. But the tale lived on, and was borne on the wings of the winds to the furthermost corners of the earth. You have heard it - perhaps? PAULINE SWANSON, '25.

OHIO: The Sophomore Class of Athens High School Broadcasting. from the Hilltop Station, the History of Their Class Since September, 1922. Hello. friends! The Sophomore Class of Athens High School sends greetings! NVe are broadcasting our history to convince you that the present Sophomore Class is the best class in Athens High. A ' In September. 1922. we came, trembling and shaking. into Room 18. The upper class- men made fun of us as usual. but we truly believe that we weren't as green as other Freshmen had been. NVe do admit, though, that for the first few weeks we were very meek and humble. but that was just to establish a good reputation. After several weeks a Freshman meeting was called. Vtle elected our oliicers. Gerald Kyle was President: Barbara Foltz, Vice-President: Harold Ross. Secretary-Treasurer. and Miss Pickering. our Class Teacher. By June we were really a part of Athens High. and during the following Summer we derived much joy from that mere fact. In September of 1923 we came back determined to make good our boasts of our Freshman year. As a start for this successful year we elected ofhcers as follows: Frances Morton. President: Merna Mills. Vice-President, and Ernest Vslilson, Secretary-Treasurer. IX-'liss Beem, our Domestic Science teacher, was chosen Class Teacher. XVe have all worked hard and we have furnished material for both Athletic and Literary activities. Following close upon the Christmas holidays we gave a program at an assembly. from the original ideas of different members of our class. XVe presented a skit, The Last Day of School. From the laughter it caused, we believe that we succeeded in making Room 18 seem like a real country school for a while. Vtle should like to tell you more of our joys and triumphs, but the time for our program is already near an end. We still have two years to work for Athens High. and with the splendid start' which we now have, we are confident that we shall have many more interesting events and activities to broadcast to our radio family by June, 1926. XVe hope all those listening in have enjoyed our program this evening. XVe are signing off at exactly ten twenty-four. Eastern standard time. Goodnight, everybody! HALLENE WOODS, '26.

Today my English Prof. told us to look up the life of some writer -- Charles somebody. Chaplin? No, but I wrote it down on a piece of paper, and put it in one of my books.

Oh, Ralph, let me read this to you. Shoot, I'm listening. 'In September, l923. some trembling but proud students entered Athens High School. After they had gone about for a few days. and had tried to get acquainted with the advanced Freshmen. the Seniors gave them a warm welcome at an assembly. At this assembly all the Freshmen were asked to come to the platform at the front of the room. After a welcome address from one of the Seniors. three Freshmen were asked to say a few words. All of the honor guests were then presented with pretty green tags on which was printed, I'm a Freshman -A. H. S. They were then asked to march around the assembly hall, which they did, much to their joy or embarrassment. During the rest of the first semester this class labored hard with books, and got better acquainted with the upper classmen. At the beginning of the second semester this class, or most of it, stepped into the rank of advanced Freshmen. At the same time another group of students made its appearance at Athens High School. and joined with the advanced Freshmen in making the largest class that has ever been seen at Athens High. Side by side these two classes fought against the slaughtering forces of books, composi- tions. and tests. At the end of this great struggle they came out ahead - aln1ost.' Real masterpiece, isn't it? Yes, who wrote it? Don't know. Sounds like Bob Schmidt. Yes. here are his initials. AR. S.' That is the history he wrote for the ARENA that year.

During recent years the MEGAPHONE has ranked commendably well in the High School newspaper world, and has brought many honors to our beloved Alma Mater. In the competition contest of l923, conducted by the journalistic department of Ohio State University, the MEGAPHONE was awarded third place, thus adding one more triumph to her record. Much credit should be given to the members of the staff, because of their willingness and their keen efforts towards the maintenance and the betterment of the MEGAPHONE. They have worked steadfastly and deserve much ap- prcciation. Yet the student body has been responsible to a large extent for the success of the MEGAPHONE. Its earnest co-operation ,has contributed in no small degree to the advancement of the publications. Many have offered friendly criticisms for the improvement of the issues which have been of an inestimable service to the members of the staff. Since the introduction of the MEGAPHONE, the keenest interest in the paper has been shown by all of the students, and it is largely a result of this interest and help that the paper ranks so high. The assistance and kindly direction of the faculty advisers has been of much value to the staff and will always be gratefully remembered by all those under their supervision. They have willingly sacrificed a great deal of their time from other duties in order to be of the greatest service to the paper. Congratulations of such Warmth and sincerity concerning the success of the MEGAPHONE have been received from distant schools through the Exchange Department that it should be a fitting reward to those who have Worked on the staff, and an incentive to the future staff members to mainain such a praise- worthy record in the years to come.

In these she has always tried her utmost to reach the goal for which she was striving. This year, as has been the custom for about the last twelve years, Athens High organized her debating teams. As in former years. Southern Ohio was divided into triangles, six in all, with Marietta College and Ohio Uni- versity sponsoring the debates. The question for debate was, Resolved: That the United States should enter the League of Nations. Athens debated iirst with John Hancock and Wellston, the negative team going to Wellston, while the affirmative debated at home. The glorious news - a 3 to 0 win for both teams! The semi-final debate was with Portsmouth and Coshocton: the aiiirmative team going to Coshocton, while the negative debated at home. This time the news was not so glorious, as Athens lost to Portsmouth. 2 to l, and to Coshocton. 3 to 0. But we are still proud of our debaters and of the wonderful work and study which they did. Much praise should be given to the debate coach, Mrs. Price, for making the teams the success that they were. Mrs. Price spent every available minute of her time in helping the teams in some Way. She burned much midnight oil in correcting and rearranging speeches, and in thinking of rebuttals. She sacri- Hced her time and her own personal pleasures to make the teams victorious for A. H. S. Of course, too much praise can not be given to the debaters themselves, who also spent their time and sacriliced their pleasures in learning about this great question. The teams were as follows: Kenneth Wilcox, the captain and the third speaker of the affirmative. Kenny, in his stately, convincing way, soon won his audience, and put fear in the hearts of his opponents. Doris Morton, the first speaker of the affirmative, told' in a very interesting and exact way, her part of the argument. Edgar Zick, the second speaker of the affirmative, spoke like a real orator. The remark was heard later that Edgar spoke like a professional debater, in- stead of an amateur. Vianna Roush, the alternate, showed by her willingness and hard work, that she will make a good debater next year. Robert Dixon, the captain. and the third speaker of the negative, certainly proved what had been said of him the year before- he is a born oratorf' Bob showed up especially well in rebuttal. His delivery was excellent. Harold Wyckoff, the second speaker of the negative, another veteran of last year, again proved what he was capable of doing in debating. His delivery was exceptionally good. . Virginia Knecht, the first speaker of the negative, and still another veteran, explained in a very calm but convincing way why the negative did not wish the United States to enter the League of Nations. Theodore Schmidt, the alternate, was not allowed to show his ability in speaking this year, .but in the splendid way in which he helped his colleagues. heswill be given a place as a speaker on the team next year. Debaters, from now on, let Victory be your watchword.

I924 QUARTETTES In the Pall of '23, soon after the Athens High School opened its doors, Miss Spring organized three quartettes in addition to the- other musical activities of the school. Last year the Senior Class sponsored a Girls' and Boys' Quartette, which met with much approval. This year, due to the interest manifested by the student- body, three quartettes were formed. The initial performance was successfully made by the Senior Boys' Quartette. Following this, the Junior and Senior Girls' Quartettes appeared before the school, and presented programs in a very commendable manner. The members of these quartettes are as follows: Junior Girls'-Thelma Bingman, Jennie Moore, Kathryn Moses, and Vianna Roush. Senior Boys'--Theodore Cowen. Harold Nice, Kenneth Wilcox, and Rex Roush. Senior Girls'-Dorothy Drake, Frances Pickering, Dorothy Ann McVay, and Elizabeth Faubion. Page Sixty-one a llRINR GIRLS' GLEE CLUB BOYS' GLEE CLUB P11570 Si.l'f!l-fll'U A.HS. I924 .210 1 1 THE ORCHESTRA Last year some of the talented musicians of the student body of Athens High banded together to form an orchestra. Each week they practised faithfully under the direction of Mr. Raymond Connett. Much advancement was made in this new venture, and at the end of the year when the orchestra appeared on the programs at the commencement exer- cises and the other functions of graduation. those who heard it registered it as a forward step in the activities of A. H. S. This year, with all of its old members, the orchestra began work again. It appears in our assemblies, and adds much to the variety of our entertainment, A great deal of credit should go to the new leader, Mr. Alspach, who has had much experience in directing orchestral music. He came to our school from a tour through the country as a professional trombone player, This is evidence of his ability as a musician. Under his supervision the orchestra has improved greatly. This is the general sentiment of all of the students, Those who com- pose the personnel are Christine Dailey, piano: Kenneth NVi1coX, saxophone: Rex Roush, saxophone: Mary Mansfield and Harold Brown, first violins: Mary Stalder and William Beck, second violins: Phillip Ong, trombone: Edgar Zick, cornet. The future of our orchestra is very promising. Most of the persons men- tioned above will be with us again next year, and we hope that more instru- ments will be added to further perfect the orchestra. Page Sigrfgr-fliree '6 4 5 Q' 5 Q QE' HRINR NATIONAL HONUR SOCIETY In 1922 the Athens High School applied for membership in the National Honor Society, and was immediately recognized. After the constitution was cer- tiiied and a charter received, the local chapter was established with a small num- ber of eligible students, and with Miss Anne Pickering, Mrs. Winifred Ackley, and Mr. Harold Mardis as the faculty advisers. The National Honor Society corresponds to the Phi Beta Kappa honorary fraternity in colleges, and is based on the principals of high scholarship. charac- ter, service. and leadership: and only students with such high aims and requisites are eligible for membership. The purpose of this society is chiefly for the public recognition of students with these qualifications, and to stimulate others in the student body who are capable of doing better work. Since the founding of the chapter it has had a most important part in the school life. In the two years it has already become one of the foremost activities, and with the increasing number of members has a very promising future. The active members are as follows: Seniors-XVilliam Davis. Christine Dailey. Robert Dixon, Virginia Knecht, Doris Morton, Amy Morgan. Josephine Marshall. Harold Nice. Mildred Williams, Kenneth Wilcox and Harold XVyckoff. ' Juniors--Theodore Cowen. Clifford Moriarty. Theodore Schmidt. Pauline Swanson, and Vianna Roush. It is a mark of distinction to belong to the National Honor Society. and to wear the gold torch and it is the sincere wish of the present chapter that as time passes more and more students will come to realize this and strive to become members. Page Sixly-four MMOIDU 90190 AHS I924 THE GGHI-Y CLUB 1 The Hi-Y Club is an international organization whose purpose is to raise the moral standing of the boys of the land. It is a branch of the Young Men's Christian Association adapted to boys of high school age rather than to adults. The club was first started in Athens High School last January when the Hi-Y torch was carried here from Marietta. At that time Mr. Harshman called together a group of boys consisting of Robert Dixon. Harold Nice, Harold Wyckoiff, Kenneth Wilcox, Bill Davis, Donald Foster, Charles Tribe, 'Wilbur Imes, and Ted Cowen. This group sought to gather material, and act with the view of the formation of an oflicial Hi-Y club. The officers chosen were: Kenneth Wilcox, President: Donald Foster, Vice-President, and Harold Nice. Secretary and Treasurer. Five members of the group attended the Hi-Y Conference for South- eastern Ohio. which was held in Granville on February l6th. Mr. Harshman and Mr. Voorhees of our faculty are valued councilors, and with their help it is expected that this organization will be a great benefit not only to the members of the organization but to the whole high school.

WINIPRED ACKLEY The athletic and honorary activities have always had a most important part in the Athens High School, but, until recently, the literary side was not given much stress. Realizing this, two literary societies were organized in the Fall of '23, with a self-evident purpose to improve the literary talent in the school. The Delphian Literary Society was organized under the capable guidance of Miss Skidmore and Mrs. Ackley. In a short time, the Delphian Society pre- sented its first performance before the student body in a delightful Thanksgiving pageant taken from the Courtship of Miles Standish. The program won such appreciation and approval on the part of the school that the Delphian, alter- nating with the Ionian Society, presented programs at regular intervals through- out the remaining school year. The organization of literary societies is quite ai new venture in the Athens High School. Yet, due to the interest which was manifested by the students, much has been accomplished by both societies this year, and the literary ap- preciation has been so increased that the literary societies are destined to become foremost among the activities of the Athens High School in the years to come.

SMISS LEECH QMISS PHILLIPS The Ionian Literary Society was organized early in the school year of '23 and '24, at the same time as the Delphian Literary Society. The purpose of the society is to give those pupils, doing the best work in their classes and not taking part in many other activities. an opportunity to improve their literary talent and to increase the literary appreciation of the school. The society made its initial appearance before the school in a most unusual and attractive Christ- mas pageant which was a great success. The second time the society entertained the assembly was in a patriotic program given on Washington's Birthday. The third and final program given in May was typical of the season, bearing a touch of Spring and nature. Although a new experiment in Athens High School, the society has ac- complished much under the excellent sponsorship of Miss Helen Leech and Miss Blanche Phillips. Not only has it helped its members in many ways, but it has raised the literary standards of the whole school, and laid a foundation for better work next year. Page Sixty-eiglzt qnxidlrtl Q Q 0 ru 0 AHS I924 i i WA TAILOR-MADE MAN The Senior Play, A Tailor-Made Man, by Harry James Smith, was selected from a large number of plays as the most appropriate to be presented by the Class of '2-4. Although it has formerly been the custom to stage the Senior Play with a double cast, due to the unusual number of characters in this play, but one cast was chosen this year. The play was staged under the capable supervision of Miss Jewctt, who is the class adviser. A Tailor-Made Man is a four-act comedy which was successfully staged in New York City during the Summer of 1917. Since then it has been quite popular in many of the larger cities throughout the United States. Although the Senior Class has had but few opportunities to display its dramatic prowess, there is much talent in the class, and each character in the play was most successfully portrayed. While several of the characters were heavy parts and required real acting and dramatic ability, the success of the play was largely due to the able support of the entire cast whose hearty co-operation and finished work were quite unusual.

The Juniors were proud to sponsor such an undertaking. Never was a plot better portrayed by high school people. The spell-bound audience laughed with the Cast, wept with them, feared with them, hated with them, loved with them, and were mystiliecl by them. Vv'hen the Hnal curtain fell and Putting It Over had been put over, everyone joined in calling this play a triumph. Each player scored a personal victory.

The Latin Class of Athens High School presented Coniuratio Orgetorigisf' The Latin, French, Spanish, and English classes together, put on what was called Mother Ducere Scene. ' L In Coniuratio Orgetorigisf' Robert Dixon played the part of Orgetorix, the manwho plotted against the government. Imagine Bob with his splendid speaking ability together with a Roman garb and a long, sharp sword. When, at last. a mob of citizens headed by Ronald Smith as Magistratus Went after Orgetorix, they found him dead. He had killed himself: perhaps the torture of his conscience was more than he could bear. The Mother Ducere Scene was Miss Leech's idea of a way to show how many different languages have been taken, partly, from the Latin. Mary Stalder played the role of Mother Ducere. There were four groups: Latin, French, Spanish, and English. Each group had a leader who spoke to Mother Ducere in her own language, telling her of all the words of her language derived from the Latin. The Latin students sang the verse of Alma Mater Ohio in Latin, and each group sang the chorus alone in their language: all joining in the final chorus together. Especially the leads in Coniuratio Orgetorigisn had a long, hard row to hoe when they began to learn their lines in Latin. It is difficult to appear on the stage at any time, but when there is a page or two of Latin to remember and pronounce correctly, you have something more on your mind. V These skits were practical as well as entertaining and we should surely congratulate these people on having enough interest along this line to devote their time and energy to it. Miss Leech again lent her services in coaching the Latin pupils. She always has some good ideas and not only has them, but puts them into action. That's the kind of teachers we like in A. H. S. Miss Phillips should also receive praise for her part in coaching the Spanish group. . Page Seventy-two OCDO 043590 A.HS. I924 HISTORY PAGEANT A pageant of ancient civilization was staged in an assembly by some of the members of the Ancient History Class of 1923. Mrs. Price, instructor of the History department, coached the paeant. The object of the program was to show the connection between modern and ancient times through the gifts which ancient nations have contributed to modern civilization. The scene representing Modern Civilization was characterized by Jennie Moore. The Spirit of 1923 was portrayed by Verna Danford. The paiges of the Court, played by Clifford Moriarity and Fred Guthrie, announced the ar- rival of each of the following stages of civilization: Ancient Man ...........,.........

T re N24 6 ex' ASSOCIATION The A Association has been organized in the high school for several years, and the boys have taken much interest in this association. This year's organization was affected early in the Fall and 'the officers elected were: Ted Cowen, President: Robert Clark, Vice-President, and Jack Rhoads. Secretary and Treasurer. Under the leadership of these excellent officers the associa- tion has progressed wonderfully. Every loyal Athens High boy has an am- bition to belong to this splendid organization of young fellows who have won great honor for themselves in athletic activities. The A Association Welcomes all men who have won a certificate in any athletic activity. There have been many new members initiated this year and we hope that many more will be able to attain the goal of membership. Page Seventy-se1:en 1 S IIRINR ! CHEER LEADERS Dutch Littler cannot be given too much praise for holding up the spirit of the student body of Old Athens High. Dutch was at every game helping the sons of the black and red to come through with victory. We regret very much that we must lose so H112 a Cheer Leader and so loyal a pupil as Dutch, His place will be very hard to fill next year, but We have three other cheer leaders in the High School who have worked hard and co-operated with Dutch. Donald Kinsel, who is a Junior this year, Earnest Wilson, a Sophomore, and Bill Phillips, a Freshman. are the on-coming Cheer Leaders. Well may we expect a very promising future for the spirit of A. H. S. with such lively and enthusiastic fellows as are these young leaders at the helm.

He came to us from Sioux City, Iowa, where he was employed as director of athletics in the Junior High School. During his one year's work in the Athens schools, he has proved to us be- yond any doubt his ability to organize teams of the various athletic sports, and to lead those teams to victory. His work here has been very creditable, and we wish him success in his future career. Chic does not expect to be with us next year, and his place will, indeed. be a difficult one to ill. WALTER PORTER, Manager b Mr. Porter, who came to us as a teacher from the grades several 'years ago, was ap- pointed manager of athletics in the High School. He has a very difficult task to per- form, and he deserves much honor for the way in which he has executed his work. XVe all appreciate the work which he has done, and sincerely hope that he will stay with us for many years. - Page Eighty AHS I924 FOOTBALL 1923 Charles Kirchcr Jack Rhoads Earl Carmichael lVilliam Kennedy ' Charles Tribe Sereno Shafer Herbert Smith Edmond Miller John Algco Delbert Swyers Ivan Maple Pa ge Eigh ty-om' N.

I924 FOOTBALL WRITE-UPS CAPT. SHAFER Serenie has been a very deserving captain and cannot be praised too highly for the way in which he led the team through the season. He always put fear into the hearts of his opponents and confidence in the hearts of his teammates, especially when his face was covered with mud and enthusiasm. Sereno is a Senior this year and we all wish him much success in his college activities. MCKINLEY Pete is an all-around backfield man and was always in the game with all his mind and body. His teammates thought enough of him to elect him cap- tain for next year. JOHN ALGEO ' Hoge was small but mighty. He deserves great credit for piloting the team through the season. Hoge had the old fight and could be depended upon at any time in the game. RHOADS Dusty was hard to see when ploughing the line and would make his opponents dizzy if they tried to stop him. If there were a few yards to gain, Jacky would dive clear over his opponents. He leaves us this year. TRIBE Tate displayed a great brand of football on the line. Very few men ever got away from him either in open field or through the line. He leaves us this year. KENNEDY Tubby never failed to do his share of the playing. He could always hit the line with much force, and make a large hole. He leaves us this year. and is leaving a big hole which will be hard to fill. g SWYERS Studd played the old game and played it hard and fast. His opponents seldom made a gain around him. He will be with us next year as one of our veterans. ' COWEN Ted always played a wonderful game of football. He was exceptionally good on snatching passes, and breaking up his opponent's end runs. BAKER , Bill was a demon on the defense, and could be depended upon to make a big hole in the line for.a gain. We lose him this year, and his place will be hard to lill.- g - E. ALGEO Eddy was always in the game with all his might, and was a big obstacle in the path of his opponent. He will be a valuable man to the team next year. E. CARMICHAEL Buddy was a hard hitter when it came to playing football. The op- ponents always feared death when they saw him coming. Buddy is a Sophomore this year. Page Eighty-three 'Q 'Q y ,t Q .iam a llRINR P. CARMICHAEL Buddy was a tearer at bucking the line and mighty on the defense. The harder the game the better he played. We are expecting much from him in the years to come. ' SMITH Smithy played his iirst year on the squad at center and hlled his position exceedingly well. We regret very much to lose him this year. MAPLE Bub was a bear cat on the line. His opponents learned to avoid him as much as possible, especially if he was angry. He was a stonewall on the defense, and it took a powerful interference to go through his sector. MILLER Monk played a fine brand of football both on offence and defense. With his experience he should make a fine football man next year. KIRCHER Krutch made crutches necessary for his opponents. especially when they tipped on his Irish, He always played a hard game to the end. XVQ are fortunate in having him next year.

He always played the game hard and fast, and kept his opponents guessing throughout the game. We are mighty glad that Ted will be with us another year. BOYD PRITCHARD Possom was the light man on the team, but his lack of weight meant a great deal in the fast work that he performed. He will be a great help to the team next year. RHOADS Dusty was always there when the time came. His floor work was splendid, and he was always 'uncorking tricks to his opponents' surprise and consternation. We must give Dusty up this year. PEARL CARMICHAEL This is Buddy's first year on the squad, but he has shown us that he knows basketball. We are very fortunate to have him with us two more years. HAROLD PRITCI-IARD Scratch also played his first basketball for the high school this year. He showed himself to be a scrappy guard and was always inventing some means of breaking the passes of the opposite team. A . MORGAN Blinky belonged to small men type but his opponents soon discovered that he was not so small when it came to guarding him. His fast work and accurate shooting made them wonder. We have him with us again next year. EARL CARMICHAEL Buddy was a tough customer for the opponents, especially on floor work. He ran rings around them all. With two years more in high school we expect big things from Buddy. wANLEss i Wanless performed stellar work throughout the season. This is his first year to show his ability at the game. and he has proven himself to be a fine bas- ketball man. We expect wonders of him next year. Page Ei,,htyAcight 0190 9 0 A.H.S. l924 TRACK 1923 The Track season last year started off with 21 bang, and under the excellent direction of Coach Cunningham the members of the track team made a fine showing. Several of our men qualified to attend the State meet at Columbus, and we came through in fine style at the Ohio University meet. We also held two meets with Logan, but were defeated by a very small score. This sport is coming to the front in Athens High and We are depending upon a great season this year. Page Eighty-nine 03 4 i, 94 IlRINR TENNIS Last year a new sporting event sprang into existence in Athens High School. Several fellows with the aid of Coach Cunningham organized a tennis team. The team was composed of Bill Davis, Captain: Herbert McConihay, Ted Cowen, Harold Wyckofl', Harold Morgan, Paul Hottel and Henry Garrett. The first four of these fellows journeyed to Greenfield where they defeated McClain H. S. 2 to 1. In the future years we hope more of the students will become interested in tennis.
