Text from Pages 1 - 112 of the 1929 volume:

Comm poled by the Senior Class Sun the year olf ATHENS HIGH SCHOOL F o r e w ord rriHH Class of 1929 has prepared, in this volume, a lasting record of our high school life in all its phases scholastic, ath- letic, and social. It is our hope that it will serve as a “Memory Book” through the com- ing years when we turn its pages happily to relive again our days in Athens High School. May the associations we have made, the friendships we have formed, the opportuni- ties we have enjoyed serve as an inspiration throughout our lives. WL w t • j- •j'i ■A ‘'I. f e, 'r ? 12] F. E. Harshman Our Principal “We affectionately dedicate this book to one who has always been a loyal friend to all the High School students.” [3] IN MEMORIAM IN LOVING remembrance of Sara Alice Bailey, who died at her home April 13, 1929, and whose loss is keenly felt by her class-mates and friends. Her democratic and friendly spirit toward all, especially endeared her to those who knew her best. The mem- bers of the staff gratefully acknowledge her service in association with them in the prep- aration of this year book. 14 | Here’s your book, folks: Look it over. If you like it, Well and good Come and tell us, We’ll feel happy. If you don’t— Oh! well you should. We’ve worked hard To put it over, And make a book You’ll want to keep. You don’t like this? I’m so sorry, Go ahead then— Read and weep. —Audrey Shamel [5] ATHENS HIGH SCHOOL [7] [8] Names of Faculty A. F. Hixson_______ F. E. Harshman ...

Many happy days we’ve spent here Filled with work, and play, and fun, Now this Senior class is leaving, For our high school days are done. Sometimes we have been discouraged, And have thought there was no use To go ahead and finish, but We found no good excuse. As we still kept plodding onward, Things grew brighter, bit by bit, And we were forced to say then, We were glad we hadn’t quit. Some of us will go to college, To complete the work begun: Once again we will be “Freshies” Then the rest will have some fun. We will leave with pleasant memories, Carefree, happy, young and gay, And now with hearts of gladness, We will go upon our way. Though we find it hard to leave you, We must do so, it is true, Now this happy class of Seniors Will bid farewell to you. —Audrey Shamel. . [10] [11] Class Officers Russell Hall . ... .

[22] e Senior Class History In writing- of this, our class histoi-y, our minds are filled with pleasant thoughts of the past, of present and of future. Tender memories arise, and yet with it all there comes a feeling of sadness, almost regret. It was in 1925 that our class of ’29 began its career. We were ushered into Athens High with proper exercises (and smiles) but we came intent on leaving our names on record. During this first year of High School, which was spent in the Junior High building, the student body elected “Bob” Cooper to be its president. One of the successful enterprises of this year was the Operetta, “Hulda of Holland,” composed mainly of members of our class. The next year we came back with the nom de plume of “Freshies” changed to the more dignified one of “Sophies” and we believed that we deseived this alteration of titles. Our class made known to the higher classes that we had come to do our share and we soon had representatives in all the branches of athletics and other activities of the school. With joyfully important steps we walked back the following Septem- ber. This year brought more work than the former years but with it came also more fun. The class chose as its officers, Jack Swanson, President; Hollis Shaffer, Vice President, and Russell Hall, Secretary-Treasurer. We gave cur loyal support to the things the Senior class undertook and at the end of the year honored them by the annual Junior-Senior Prom which we believe was a success. In our last year, 1928-29, our class participated in all of the different activities, music, dramatics, athletics and the many other events of daily occurence. Again this year “Bob” Cooper was elected president of the Student body. Scholarship is really the most important part of our school life and our class has a record that is very creditable. But beside our studies and oui- work we have had good times that will long remain pleasant memories. The executives of our class for this year are: President, Russell Hall; Vice President, Jack Swanson, and Secretary-Treasurer, Dorothy Wilson. We are eagerly yet with a feeling of regret approaching the end of the year. But we know that if we face Life with the same spirit and determination that has characterized our High School years some of us must gain fame and success to its highest degree. One thing is certain. We will always look back upon our four years in A. H. S. as one of the brightest of all the bright spots in our past. [23] —E. L. and T. C.

Our radio listeners have just enjoyed a program which was sponsored by the Fifth Avenue Style Shop. We will now take you to our New York Studio. This is Paul Antorietto announc- ing.” These are the words which reached the ears of Mr. and Mrs. Rex Smed- ley, Mrs. Smedly formerly known as Mona Sanders. “Rex, do you know what happened just eleven years ago tonight?” “No dear, I don’t.” “Well, it was exactly eleven years ago tonight that we received our diplomas from deal' old Athens High with seventy-four other students and Paul Antorietto was one of them. “Listen, I forgot to tell you, but just a few days ago I heard that Ros- coe Reading had taken over the management of the Fair Store and en- gaged Mildred Holmes as his buyer, and that Merrill Morrison had bought the Banks Ice Cream factory. John Sheridan and Carl Beery, real es- tate agents, sold the property.” “Well, with owners like that the business should prove very profitable. Alice Keen and Rachel Syx, designers for the D. Zenner Company, told me that two of their new models were old school mates, Ramah Darst and Lorena Hartley. Rachel said that she had received a letter from Thelma Cox and Virgene Newman who are engaged in welfare work in the tene- ment districts of New York City and they were telling of a musical revue, “The Blue Laws of 1940,” the stars of the performance being Aldena Tewksbury and Camilla Nickoson. Also there were two Quite famous tap dancers, Ester Lewis and Alma Robinson.” “Gee, it would be great to have a get-together of all these folks, wouldn’t it? There goes the telephone. Wait, Mona, I’ll answer it.” “Sit still, it is probably mother. Hello-—Who?—Oh!—Why, we would be delighted to come.—Who did you say the honor guest was to be? Mr. Wiliam Cooper! the famous orator, oh, that will be lovely. Thank you. Goodbye.” “Rex, that was Pauline Overmyer, who was recently married to Paul Saylor, the organist at the Metropolitan Theater in Chicago. She has in- vited us to a dinner she is giving at the “Crocus Tea Room,” near Sugar Creek. It’s managed by Ellen Stokoe. Lelah Holland and Virginia Bran- non are waitresses. You remember them, don’t you ! She has also invited Audrey Shamel and Ruth Robson, the stenography and typing teachers from Athens High.” “That will be fine. I wonder if John Gift, the woodshop instructor, will be there. Say, you remember Elizabeth Ong, don’t you ? Well, she is coming over tonight to bid us farewell. She has just completed a course in Missionary work and is leaving for Africa next week. She is to be ac- companied by Doroles Phelps. Rosalie Coffey, and Vera Newman. She told me that while she was in New York, she saw Paul Dalton and William Strickland who are with Sousa’s band. You remember they played in the old A. H. S. Band. Very talented young men, weren’t they? She said also that Mona McKinley and Ruth Cone were on their way to Palm Beach to spend the winter, and to see Roy Robinson in the auto races. He cer- tainly ought to be good because he got plenty of practice during his high school career. Elizabeth wants to leave next week because Raymond Car- [27] michael is to fight in New York for the national championship, and you know she always was interested in Raymond’s activities.” “Mona, where is the evening paper? I would like to see it.” “Here it is and guess who is on the new staff. Mildred Reynolds is writing editorials and Alice McCracken is writing the “Lovelorn” column. That certainly is the right place for Alice. Just recall her high school ca- reer, and they say that experience is a good teacher. 1 see where Gertrude Lyon, the great character actress, is playing at the “Ohio” next week. We should go and se her.” “Rex, where did you get this magazine? I see a boy’s story in it writ- ten by Eniest Gibson. I suppose he acquired all his knowledge from read- ing Horatio Alger books in high school, and here is a page of wonderful poetry written by Bernard Matheny. I heard that he was considered the world’s second Shelley. I suppose he has Miss Pickering to thank for his wonderful background of literature. “Did you read here in the paper about the new air port which is to be erected by Jack Beverage and George Kilpatrick? I suppose Jack is go- ing to furnish the brains and George the money. I think there is also to be a flying school with Mary Belle Taylor and Elizabeth McGraner as flying- instructors.” “Yes, I saw that and also that Dana Swift and Dwight Gaskill have drilled another well at Fisher. If they keep on they will be real million- aires. I wonder who will be invited to the farewell party which Russell Hall, now a prominent business man, is giving in honor of Jack Swanson, Rex Koons, and Hollis Shaffer. You knew they were going to Hollywood to break into the movies, didn’t you ?” “Perhaps they will go through Washington and see Kenneth Jones, who, I understand owns a large apple orchard there.” “Do you remember Lowell Kenny and June Kimball? When I was in the Palm Beauty Parlor, owned and managed by Mable Croy and Harriet Jacoby, I overheard someone saying that Lowell was the new bus driver between Albany and Athens while June, his wife, operates a lunch counter. Mable said that Janet Bing, dean of girls at Columbia University, was com- ing home for a short visit. Perhaps Nelle Stout and Rhoda Cowan will come with her. They have established an exclusive finishing school for young ladies.” “Oh, Mona, I have just been reading the sport page and I see where Virgil Cross has accepted the position of coach at Notre Dame and Fred James has signed up with the New York Giants.” “Pauline Shuler, Pi Beta Phi house mother, was telling me that Flor- ence Vorhes, manager of the F. W. Woolworth store, has just returned from Grant hospital where she underwent an operation for appendicitis. She said that Edward Hixon and Eldridge Whipple were doctors there, and Mabel Bowles and Frances Gold were nurses. Dr. Whipple said that Lee Beasley, the famous architect, was convalescing from a broken leg.” Cledythe Cranmer came into my office today. She told me she and Arthur Scott were soliciting money to buy trophies for the basketball boys. They are now the physical education directors.” “Oh, Rex, if I go to the dinner party Mrs. Saylor is giving I must have a new hat. I think I will go down to the millinery shop, run by Addie Guth- rie and Blanche Cassels. They get their hats direct from Paris so I should be able to find something very stylish. Oh, that radio, Rex turn it off. —Wilson and Wilson.

She was an earnest student and a friend to all, highly regarded by teachers and students alike. The loss of such a girl is keenly felt and greatly mourned. In memory of our beloved schoolmate, Margaret R. Landis, who died at her home January 13, 1929, we wish to express our deep felt loss. Margaret, who had a smile and a kind word for everyone, had many friends.

Leadership, and Scholarship, with Scholarship counting the most. This year, the society had the privilege of installing a chapter at Gal- lipolis, initiating eight members. At the beginning of the school year, there were seven members in the Athens chapter: Pauline Overmyer, president; Dolores Phelps, vice presi- dent; Elizabeth Ong, secretary; Paul Saylor, treasurer; Thelma Cox, guide; Dorothy Wilson, pianist, and William Cooper. Four new members were initiated in March: Audrey Shamel, Ruth Robson. Virgil Cross, and Lee Beasley. The sponsor during the year was Miss Ann Pickering. [47] ■ [48] Mathematics Club This ciub is sponsored by Mr. Hughes. Its purpose is to develop an interest in mathematics among the students of Athens High School. Meetings of the club are held once a month, and the time is spent in discussing the lives and works of noted mathematicians, such as Euclid, Newton, Dicrates, Eulu, Napier, and Pathagoras; and playing such games as bridge, checkers, and five hundred. Puzzles concerning the work of the important mathematicians are also used. The club is composed of Sophomores and Juniors, who are taking eith- er advanced algebra or plane geometry. The Juniors eligible for member- ship must have a C average and the Sophomores a B average. Seniors who majored in mathematics and had an A average may become honorary mem- bers. The officers must be Juniors. The officers this year were: Presi- dent. John Boden; Vice President, Robert Gullum; Secretary, Alice Schu- ler; Treasurer, Margaret Radford. The total enrollment this year was thirty-eight. This Mathematics Club is in its infancy, being organized only this year, and its members hope that it will continue to be successful. The Algebra Club The Algebra Club was organized at the first of the semester for the purpose of furthering the study of and fostering an interest in Mathe- matics. The meetings are held on Thursday of each week. Various teach- ers and students of the Mathematics department have contributed to the programs. Two members, Thomas Reading and Charles Emish, partici- pated in the State Scholarship contest. First place in this contest was won by Thomas Reading. Members of the club are: President, Thomas Reading; Secretary, Beatrix Ricketts; Treasurer, James McClanahan; Lorayne Fields, Sarah Sherman, Grace Story, Mary Eleanor Morton, Jean Morton, Virginia Hoov- er, Mary Nagle, Naomi Vernon, Jean Huchinson, Mary Pinkerton, Maurine Cornwell, John Pickens, Aubrey Morris, James Rutkoskie, Harley Bobo, Charles Emish, Paul Person, Bill Kircher, Mr. Wood, sponsor. [49] [50] The Megaphone The Megaphone staff had an opportunity this year which few high schools throughout the country, if any, are granted. Instead of the usual school paper, irregularly issued, the news was written and published twice a week in a section of the Athens Messenger, under the heading of “The Megaphone.” This method required more writing and news hunting and gave every member greater experience. The staff consisted of the follow- ing—Clara Belle Bailey, Alice Beasley, Ruth Fleck, Harry Hudson, Mar- garet Johnson, George Kilpatrick, Rex Koons, Mildred Reynolds, Kathryn Farrar, Helen Townsend, and Miss Anne Pickering, faculty adviser. The Social Science Club was organized in the fall of 1924 at the sug- gestion of a group of students in the social science classes who wanted to study local economic and social problems more intensively than they could in the regular class room work. During the years of its existence, the membership of the club has been moderate in number, but its enthusiasm has always been great. This year, the club has made a thorough study of the various economic activities and social problems in Athens. Membership in the club is optional. The officers this year were: Anne Evans, President; Virginia Coe, Secretary-Treasurer, with Edward S. Dowell, the advisor. [51] Debate The question debated by the Athens High School team this year was: Resolved: That the United States should cease to protect by force of arms investments in foreign lands except after formal declaration of war. The affirmative side was upheld by Roscoe McKibben, Robert Warth- man, and Margaret Porter, with Ruth Bain as alternate. The negative side was represented by Pauline Cone, Margaret Haskins, and Arabella Chute with Margaret Johnson as alternate. In the first elimination contest Athens and Portsmouth High School held a dual debate which resulted in a victory for Athens, by a score of sev- enteen points. In the second round, the Athens team met and defeated Lancaster High debaters in a dual debate by a score of eleven points. This concluded the debating activities, leaving Athens High School the winner in the South-West district of the Ohio University-Marietta College League. [52] ARENA The Student Council The Student Council during the fifth year of its existence in Athens High School has proven to be a valuable representative body. The success of the Fall Festival, the Spring Frolic, and numerous pa- rades, which were sponsored by the organization, owe their success to this able group. A member of each home room in both the Junior and Senior depart- ments composed its membership during the first semester. At the begin- ning of the second semester, these students were either reelected or their places filled by new representatives. This made possible the participation of many pupils. William Cooper, president of the high school, Jack Swanson, vice presi- dent, and Mr. A. A. Nellis, director of extra-curricular activities, took active part in leadership of the council. [53] [54] Athens High School Orchestra During the past year, under the direction of Miss Jettie J. Denmark, Director of Music in Athens High School, the high school orchestra im- proved considerably. At the beginning of the year there were only eight members in the orchestra, and the number increased to thirty-two. The orchestra work has been stressed particularly this year because it was hoped that just as much progress could be made in instrumental music as vocal music. The Athens High School orchestra was especially honored by having a membership in the 1929 National High School Orchestra and Band Camp at Interlochen, Michigan, offered to one of the students, but it was impos- sible to accept the appointment. This year the orchestra played the musical accompaniment for the op- eretta, entertained at a Rotary Club party, at assemblies of the school and other meetings. It played on the recital given by the Music Department May 10 in observance of National Music Week, May 5 to 11. The members also entertained at the Rotary-Kiwanis Father-Son Banquet May 7. Wearers of the “A” This honorary group consists of those students in the High School who, through participation in certain activities, were awarded the letter “A.” The emblem is only given to participants showing special merit in the activity in which they have entered. [55] am r f9S] The Drama Club The Drama Club was organized this year for the purpose of stimu- lating interest in dramatics. Three plays have been given by this group: “Dulcy,” a three-act comedy; “A Pair of Lunatics,” and “Peace Manoeuvres.” The charter members were: President, Jack Swanson, Bill Cooper, Raymond Carmichael, Ann Evans, Virgil Cross, Virginia Coe, June Kimball, Charles McKinley, and Elizabeth Ong. New members were: Laura Morris, Robert Warthman, Margaret Johnson, Roscoe McKibben, Lucille Gardner, Albei t Watkins, and Gertrude Lyon. The sponsors were Miss Ann Pickering and Mr. A. A. Nellis.

Rex Koons [57] [58] The Girl Reserve Club The Girl Reserve Club has enjoyed the most successful year since it was organized in 1925. It has met every Thursday noon from 12:15 to 12:45. The general program of the meetings has centered around the var- ied interests of the girls. There have been talks by special speakers, open forum discussions led by the girls, “sings,” and social and recreational meetings, such as teas and parties. The continued interest and active participation in the programs of the year, and the higher standards and relationships, prove that the girls have striven to carry out their slogan “To Face Life Squarely” and their pur- pose “To Find and Give the Best.” Girl Reserve Cabinet: Janet Bing, President; Mary L. Walker, Vice President; Virginia Coe, Secretary; Margaret Radford, Treasurer; Dorothy R. Holcombe, Dolores Phelps, Alice Keen, Tersa Woolley; Song Leader, Delia Dorsey; Pianist, Margaret Haskins. Hi-Y The Hi-Y is a national boys’ club, a branch of the Y. M. C. A. It was organized in January, 1924. The club is sponsored by Mr. Harshman and Mr. Porter. Its purpose is to maintain the highest standard of fellowship throughout the school. High school membership is the only necessary re- quirement for eligibility. The club meets every Tuesday noon and is fa- mous for the “slum” banquets served to the members. Many professors from the Ohio University gave their services this year and some unusually fine speeches were given. This year the club was governed by William Cooper, President; Rex Koons, Vice President; and Raymond Carmichael, Secretary-Treasurer. [59] The Science Club The Science Club is an organization composed of nineth year pupils who are interested in science. Its purpose is to give those pupils who are interested, an opportunity to secure a greater knowledge of science, to de- velop a cooperative spirit on the part of those participating, and to create a place for constructive social activity. The Manual Arts Club v The Manual Arts Club was organized this year to further and give ad- ditional opportunities to those boys interested in this department. The department of manual arts in Athens High School consists of the following subjects: Woodwork, Mechanical Drawing and Printing. The boys are chosen from these three departments according to grades and the best of reliable character. The ideals of our club are signified by the shield like pin which bears the star of leadership—meaning to elevate to the highest and seek for the truth. [61] J?

The organization was divided into two groups: the Junior club, with Lorene Rodenhaver, President; Bea Ricketts, Secretary, and the Sen- ior group electing Alice Keen, President; Harriet Jacoby, Vice President; and Margaret Johnson, secretary. Under the splendid supervision of Miss Mildred Rice, the club has progressed and has been very successful. [64] [65] Our Athletic Directors The name “Coach Wise” speaks for itself. We will always remember the remarkable things he has done in the interest of A. H. S. Athletics. He has not only proven himself a capable coach but also a clean sportsman, worthy friend, and a desirable advisor. This is Miss McEuen’s first year as a director of Girls’ Ath- letics in the high school and she has already shown her ability of leadership in this line. The gills have had an extensive athletic program this year. Thanks, to Miss McEuen. Coach H. E. Wise Coach Ethel McEuen Our Assistant Athletic Directors We feel that the success of the Athletic season is greatly due to the assistance given us by Mr. Sharp and Mr. Newcombe. They have worked faithfully to aid Coach Wise to put out a team worthy of Athens High School. In doing this they have done their best to try to solve the problems that confronted the team on various occasions. We feel that too much thanks cannot be given these men. [66] Coach Sharp Coach Newcomb Jack Cheerleaders It was a well uniformed and “pep- py’’ group of cheerleaders that work- ed before the bleachers this year. Un- der the leadership of Jack Swanson the yell masters contributed a big factor in the success of the Athens High Ath- letic Activities. Four of them were new to the game, but showed possibilities for the future. It was they who were able to pep up the crowd when “the going was the hardest.” As a result of the enthusiasm they created, the score oft- en became more favorable. Jack Swanson, senior cheerleader, has been a cheerleader for the last five years, and during that time has estab- lished a reputation as one of Athens High’s best. He is “peppy,” reliable, always on the job and has a personal magnetism which inspires the rooters to follow him. The four valuable men remaining as next year’s cheerleaders are Joe Rardin, Tom Craig, Bill Cline, and John Cline. BIG FIVE [67] VARSITY SQUAD CAPTAIN ROBINSON We can truthfully say that the football season was a success. Through diligent, hard work and with the help of the Coaches, the boys won five out of eight games. Those “fiery” red suits carried down the field by vigor- ous, determined players were enough to frighten the most courageous op- ponent. But that was not all; the fighting spirit which has long been predominant in Athens High football was in the heart of each man. Dur- ing the entire year, squads were play- ed that were much superior in weight, but seldom was a wall too strong to resist their attack. Football In summing it all up, we must repeat the words so often used in refer- ence to the football Athenians, “The Battling Bulldogs.” Eight seniors are graduating in June and their places will be hard to fill. Roy Robinson, “Bart,” has played on the Athens High School Varsity for the last four years. The mere mentioning his election as honorary cap- tain and selection as All-Southeastern Ohio guard is sufficient to pronounce his ability as an athlete. His speed both on the kick-off and in running down ball earners was a great asset to the team. He was known to be a hard fighter at all times. One of the most able players of the football squad, Bernard Matheny, was not only a notable guard in his early career, but as a senior showed himself to be a valuable man at the tackle position. Bernard filled the posi- tion of “punter” during the last half of the season and did exceptional work. [69] The “Signal Barker” for the season was Virgil Cross, who overcame many difficult situations by his intelligent leadership. In the back field, “Crossie” was recognized not only as the best tackier, but as one of the best ball carriers as well. Raymond Carmichael at the halfback position was a great assistance to the “bulldogs.” You remember how “Ray” backed up the line on de- fense, and how he marched down the field with the ball? Well, these ac- complishments and others entitle him to a place in the A. H. S. hall of fame. William Cooper, after one year’s experience, stepped into the varsity squad this year and proved himself a valuable lineman. His natural assets as a football player and his knowledge of the signals made “Bill’s” position at tackle a forceful one at all times. Kenneth Jones developed into a guard this year. Coach Wise often spoke of “Buck” as one of the best linemen on the team. There is no doubt that his work both on the defense and offense helped to make a successful season. Although handicapped by injuries, Dwight Gaskill was a strong player at the center position. His accuracy in passing the ball to the backfield led the way to victory. “Dwight” served on the squad for two years. Russell Hall was an aggressive end. He was always alert and always ready to make the best of circumstances. His ability to catch every pass within possible reach brought many laurels to the Athenians. It will take a good man next year to fill his shoes. The following scores show the result of each game in points: Middleport____20; Athens___37 New Boston __ 0; Athens___25 Marietta______ 6; Athens___ 0 Logan ---------- 6; Athens____12 E. Hi Columbus 6; Athens___19 Portsmouth____32; Athens_____6 Hamilton______16; Athens____ 0 Ironton ________6; Athens____ 7 [70] VARSITY SQUAD Boys Basketball The past season was a success as far as the basketball squad was con- cerned. Although the bulldog team was considerably smaller in stature than any one of its opponents, the boys often excelled them through quick action and brilliant thinking. The players were commended for their knowledge of the fundamentals of basketball. Three veterans have been lost this year, but with the help of the un- derclassmen, the High School’s chances should be equally as good next year. Virgil Cross, honorary captain, for the 1928-29 team, has demonstrated his skill at the forward position. For three years he has shown a high grade of basketball. The fact that he was selected for the all-tournament team in the South-Eastern Ohio League is a sign of his outstanding ability. It will be remembered that Raymond Carmichael, guard, was a con- sistent player during his entire basketball career. Ray demonstrated his ability at the tournament and received honorable mention from the officials. [72] CAPTAIN CROSS Russell Hall obtained considerable credit during the season for his ability to fill any position on the team. He played smoothly at all times and always maintained a fighting spirit. The following schedule gives a review of the season: First Squad: Ironton 10 Athens 24 Marietta 34 Athens 24 Parkersburg 30 Athens 20 Portsmouth 28 Athens 18 Parkersburg 24 Athens 20 Logan 19 — Athens 17 Westerville 28 Athens 35 Ironton 17 Athens 29 Marietta 16 Athens 35 TOURNAMENT Logan 11 Athens 37 Chillicothe 23 Athens 14 Second Squad Greens Run 9 Athens 17 Albany 25 Athens 16 Hamden 36 -. _ Athens 12 Hi-Y 14 Athens 12 Chauncey 20 Athens 25 [73] ’28-’29 BASKETBALL “A” WEARERS [74] FIELD BALL TEAM Field Ball Honorary Team: Faye Tom, Ethel Doughty, lihea Shumway, liuth Daggett, Helen Drake, Martha Swift, Bertine Sanders, Ann Evans, Mar- garet Johnson, Mildred Murphy. Field ball was introduced in Athens High School this year by the new physical education instructor. This sport being the first one ot the season, the girls entered the game wholeheartedly, eager to learn. It was not long until all were familiar with the rules and were practicing earnestly. The announcement was made that teams would be picked for a tourna- ment, and that the players would receive points toward a letter. For a few days, then, field ball was the main topic of conversation. Miss McEwen picked the best players from the senior high girls physi- cal education classes, the teams chose colors, and practice for the tourna- ment began. After a few practices everything was “set” for the games that counted, down on the Mill Street Athletic Field. “Going down to see the tournament at the field?” “I wouldn’t miss it!” [75] These and many other remarks were heard after school during the period of the tournament. At the field the girls played their best. The lines moved backward and forward across the field until one team made a goal. Then the spectators were in an uproar. When the tournament ended the Orange team was ahead earning 13 points; the Green came second earning 11; and the Red came third earn- ing 3 points.

Just what does it mean anyway and what is it all about? G. A. A. stands for Girls Athletic Association, an organization which the gills of the physical education department have organized this semester. The Girls’ Athletic Association exists for the purpose of fostering sports and athletics tor girls and furthering interest in such, by providing wholesome recreational activities. At present the interest is centered on volley ball, baseball and hiking. For other sports this year we have had field ball, tennis, dancing and basketball. Basketball Honorary team: Martha Maynard, Mildred Murphy, Margaret Has- kins, Helen Drake, Martha Swift. “Guard her!” “Jump!” “Shoot!” “Shoot!” These and similar peppy expressions were hurled at the girls playing on the rival basketball teams in the inter-color clash. The spectators of these snappy games became very much excited, and showed their love for fine sportsmanship, training, and teamwork which was displayed by those i epresentatives of the Athens High School girls who had actively partici- pated in basketball. [76] Girls Athletic Association Basketball Team In this clash between the two color teams, the Reds and the Oranges, the teams were evenly matched. However, despite this fact, the Reds were defeated by the Oranges in two games. Of the teams, the forwards on the Orange group were more able to score points for their team. The forwards on the Orange team were Mar- tha Swift and Helen Drake, while those on the Red team were Mildred Murphy and Carol Hope. The Reds could not have existed without the center, Loretta Brannon, and the side center, Louise Seiple. The guards for this team were the two Ruths, Ruth Daggett and Ruth Drake. The center for the Oranges was Margaret Haskins, with Velma Alex- ander as side center. The guards were Katherine Brannon, Julia Bogle and Faye Tom. The Oranges again managed to win first place and combining this score with the field ball results the color team points were as follows: Orange, 23 points; Green, 13 points; Reds, 9 points.
