Great credit is due to the members of the class for their loyalty and co-operation. We wish to express at this time our thanks to the faculty advisors for their advice and co-operation and especially to Mr. Sabin for his aid in securing the advertisements for the ANNUAL. The advertising committee also have worked very faithfully. We extend our thanks to Elizabeth Graves for the clever cuts which she furnished for this issue. ln conclusion, we hope that the juniors next year may have the same success and that the ANNUAL may become a yearly review book for Geneva l-ligh.

THE SENIOR ANNUAL '24 29 . Class History HE CLASS OF '24 began its illustrious career upon its appearance in G. H. S. in September of 1920. We were told that we were too green to organize as Froshg but in September of '21 we decided that we had absorbed enough knowledge to warrant organization. Accordingly, we chose William Packard, Dorothy Dixon, Clara Petersen and Floyd Rhodes for the offices of president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer respectively. At the same time we chose rose and grey as our colors. Here began our action, At Hallowe'en we planned to entertain the Frosh with a masquerade. A misunderstanding occurred with the faculty due, doubtless, to some greenness acquired in our Freshman year not yet over- come, but we, undaunted as ever, departed kit and cargo to the Y. M. C. A. and held our party. In September of '22 we elected Henry Page president, Chrissie Curtis vice-president, Clara Petersen secretary and james Prince treasurer, to pilot our course through our junior year. This year we 'selected cerise and silver as colors. On November 3 the Seniors con- descended to give us a party, and on April zo we returned the compliment according to custom, In May came the speaking contest and Dorothy Dixon, Clara Petersen, Henry Page and Charles Stolp were chosen to beat the Seniors for us. Although luck was against us, we humbled the Seniors by holding them to a 3-2 victory. We wound up the year with a rousing picnic at Owasco. September '23 began our much anticipated Senior year. To start the year right we began holding those noisy Senior meetings and after several of them, William Shankwiler was elected president, Alice Goodelle vice-president, Dora Long secretary, and Grove Nagel treasurer. We planned to get busy with the High School News right away and so elected Chrissie Curtis editor-in-chief. ln October we held a dance at the Masonic Temple which started our activities. ln November we gave a poverty party for the juniors. Uur next dance was in November at the Masonic Temple in honor of the football team. In De- cember, during Christmas vacation we held our Christmas dance at the Hobart gymnasium and in May our last dance was held at the Masonic Temple, On December 14th we gave the i'Charm School as our Senior play. The success of this is beyond my comment. In May we again competed in a speaking contest and were this time victorious. Chrissie Curtis, Ada Nelson, Grove Nagel and Derwin Laws won the honors for us. The week before the contest the juniors held a party in our honor. Now that the story of our career is done, we will leave it to posterity to comment on our success. ' GENEVA HIGH SCHOOL Class Poem Have you heard of the wonderful one-hoss shay That ran one hundred years to a day? 'Tis naught to the class of twenty-four Who ran the school four years-or more. Our tall, stately president, once very shy, To the winds has thrown shyness, and this is his cry, As merrily Bill dances, plays foot-ball, debates, Sleep not, for Macbeth must keep them awake. You know our Vice-President, Winnie Goodelle. The reason we chose her is not hard to tell: She devotes to her studies a clear legal mind And the rest of the students are left far behind. What's that noise? Oh of course, it's Grove's old horse- There's nobody else who could equal it half. Yet we couldn't be without him, altho it seems funny For not even our class can run without money. Our peaceable Gordon now lives, so 'tis told, A long way o'er the bumps of the old Castle Road. But thru waking hours his address, 'tis found, Is quite a way farther down into town. Oh, Scott's Lochinvar came out of the west. But our Lochinvar, we boast with a zest, Came from Oaks Corners-ah yes, you have guessed. 'Tis Dilworth Bauer, of our brave knights the best. laugh 'THE SENIOR ANNUAL '24 There are all kinds of girls in Geneva High School. Some study, some joke, and some break the rule. But theres one, find fault with if you can, The scholar and student, Irene Buchan. Shortage of food we'll not have to fear After Arthur's Senior year For such a great agriculturist he'll be His rise to fame we soon shall see. The next on our list is Troy Caudill. We accuse him right here-he wrote the class will. He came from Nebraska where cowboys are bad, This happy-go-lucky, smiling young lad. Boss of the show is our well-known Cork, Never known to be afraid of work. He toots a sax and keeps his dates But best of all he decorates, Our Chree is a girl we'd all hate to lose, For she's Editor-in-Chief of our High School News, She's always back of sports and fun. A charge against her? There can be none. We've a prestidigitator in our class Who juggles with words all the time, alas! Instead of 'thinkingf he 'cogitatesf It takes words of ten-syllables to be Allyn's playmates Dorothy Dixon is a versatile lass Who is ever involved in affairs of the class. With her harp as her hobby so busy is she That standingfround idle she never can be. GENEVA HIGH SCI-IOGL' From Phelps comes Milton with his grin To amuse the town with the jokes he brought in. But Geneva was not good enough for him So back to Phelps he went again! We've twins with us who are shy and quiet, But when given work they say, We'll try it. There are few who can tell the one from t'other They both seem to look, so like each other. Theres Elsie with her Puritan way Who never smiles however gay. jeans words are few, she giggles ne'er Oh a quiet miss is Jeannie Fair. Pray invoke the law to make one grin That each may not look like her twin. Ralph is a laddie with shoulders square, Courteous of mien and kind of air. When some fellows say cant, Ralph always says may Oh you can depend on our Ralph any day. We hereby Doris Fitton charge With excellence in things at large. In business and domestic art She surely well can play her part. Leslie Funnell is one of the boys Who thinks playing the piano's the way to make noise. I-le'll rattle the keys at any time If you'll only offer him half a dime. George Goodelle is a husky sheik, But around the girls he is very meek. He studies little but knows his stuff, Some say it's science, but we think it's bluff. Tl-IE SENIOR ANNUAL '24 Eleanor Graves seems a dignified Senior. In class she acts with perfect demeanor. But looks are deceiving, we'll have to say, For her friends are jollity, Mirth and Play. Do you know the artist of G. I-l. S. Whose drawings are considered of the best? Does it not come to you in great thought waves That this artist must be Elizabeth Graves? Our mascot? Oh sure. That's the third Graves, Irene. Ever in deeds of great prowess she's seen. Tho she's only a child, a mere infant to us She has managed to toddle along in the rush! Now tho the average on Ruth's card Will show she's studied long and hard, Too constant Haps her little tongue ln giggling, laughter, and some fun. Franks a cornetist of no mean renown Also a pianist, drummer and clown. l-le'll play any instrument till it's lame Compared to him, Paul Whiteman's tame. Have you seen the wonderful four-wheel car, The Thane's Gondola that's travelled so far? We are sure if the Deacon had seen Reds Ford The tale of his shay would no more be heard. Now we pray you give heed to the Heist sisters fair. If one you e'er see, know the other one's near. The elder, Elizabeth, seems a meek little girl But she's not so meek when you know her real well. Her crime if there be one is hid to the eye. Pray call Sherlock Holmes if this miss you would try GENEVA HIGH SCHOOL Lucille, the violinist, with bright happy face, Will scorn any pessimist to lasting disgrace. Gan this be the crime of which she is accused That she ever is eager to drive out our blues? She's a Kidd by nature as well as name And she has quite a piratical fame. For earrings and headbands our Ruth's head adorn And her booty of hearts shows that many've been shorn Quiet and sober is this Klopfer maid And to her account no crime can be laid 5 But for all her silence, when she chooses to smile- Well, Louise has a smile that is really worth while. In the Charm School, Derney, with his crooked smile, Kept us laughing all the while. But off the stage it's just the same Derney and his jokes have won lasting fame. Cyrus Lloyd is the lad with sunny smile Who thinks most everythings well worth while. Athletics, acting, dances and such, And e'en filibustering enthuses him much. Ruth MacArthur by name should a Scotch lassie be. And tho she's not sandy as all here can see And is quiet and sedate as a Scotch lass should be, Yet she still loves a joke as well as we. There is Gladys Magraw, a quiet young miss But were somewhat disturbed when we look on our list. For why should this girl from our good old High Find so much to enjoy in a town nearby? THE SENIOR ANNUAL .24 Wesley Martin is far from dense. Hes simply a picture of innocence. But he'll make a living on what he knows About all kinds of radios. Taunting brown eyes and curly bobbed hairg Pictures she draws and makes them most fair. Perhaps you have guessed who this maiden must be. Ah yes, Margaret Merchant, as we all can see. May Michelson is a lassie most fair With eyes of blue and bright gold hair But the fact is belied by her merry smile That she thinks only business is really worth while. Have you seen Agnes Miner drive her Ford sedan? She does it as well as any man. And since we are sure she does that all right We know she can manage her linotype. She is calm and serene wherever you find her Unruffled, unworried, she needs no reminder. And tho she'll not always recite when she can Myrtle Mogge has brains with the best of the clan. Quick, vivacious Ada with her ever ready smiles Into buying candy many boys and girls beguiles. And always standing ready, every wish of hers he fills The strong and sturdy youth by the name of Clinton Tills An orator bold is Henry Page. And tho he seems youthful, he's wise as a sage. Always and ever he stirs up commotions When he starts propounding his very good notions. GENEVA HIGH SCHOOL Who is this girl with shining bobbed hair, Who an eighth period so often does share? She laughs very much and dances as well. That this is our Clara you surely can tell. There is one jimmy Prince who belongs in our ranks We are sure that you must have heard of his pranks When anything goes on, jimmy's sure to be there, As slick as a pin from his heels to his hair. Elizabeth Reynolds is always late Even when she has an important dateg But we all like her just the same For in dancing, and play she is ever game. Floyd Rhodes is a radio bug of renown V As authority on the subject well known about town. Only one fault with our Floyd do we see- That he and the girls never seem to agree. We know there are flowers, flowers everywhere, On hilltop and mountain, in wood and mere. But when you name one that everyone knows We're sure you must mean our Lula Rose, Here's to Scotty, the joker, e'er ready to play A prank on each victim that passes her way. But so tall and so stern she endeavors to seem That poor freshmen are fooled by her dignified mien Against one of our number, I very much fear A most terrible charge must be made right here. Sh! Don't repeat it, for this is the tale: Mildred Secor in Latin was ne'er known to fail! THE SENIOR ANNUAL '24 There is one of our boys who is not very tallg But we see him as soon as he enters the hall. For Leo's hair is ne'er twice adjusted the same, Since he shakes it back as a horse does his mane. One of the sweetest of all, 'tis said, ,Is our popular classmate, Elizabeth Stead. She is dainty and charming, with curly bobbed hair. She's a dear little maiden, surpassingly fair. A great athlete is our Frederick Stevens, Who'd like to eat anything, even the leavin's. He can crash thru center with the ball, But talk to the girls 7-Mercy! Not at all. You have heard of our wonderful athlete star. Other teams records Macs sure to mar. A I-Ie's hot of head and warm of heart. He sure was hit hard by cupid's dart. You have yet to hear of our Marjorie T. A bright and studious maiden she. At drawing and painting she excels indeed, And she always likes to work with Reed. Theres another Senior by the name of Dick Truesdale Whose greatest fear is a ten-penny nail, For, as no doubt 'most everyone knows, I-ie owns a Ford that sometimes goes. From Romulus in days of old Came Linley in his lizzie bold, A skillful mathematician he The like of which could never be. GENEVA HIGH SCHOOL Violet Wayman is a quiet lass Who ever is silent and subdued while in classi But out of class you'll always find Vi's ready for fun of any kind. Of course you have heard of Alice Wheat. Of all the girls there's none more sweet. When help is needed, she's always there, And by our Alice we'll all of us swear. Naturally everyone here knows Sew. So tall you can't miss him even if you try to. He's an athlete of promise, a student of fame, And far from effeminate, 'spite of his name. V And now we have told of lad and lass Who taken together do make up our class. Since you have seen us in battle array Do you wonder we like ourselves more every day? Ah me! We'll not boast ourselves any more, Only-Hail to the class of twenty-four! D. E. L.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto subscribed my name and affixed my seal the zznd day of May in the year of Our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred Twenty-E our. ' T. w. C. '24 42 GENEVA HIGH SCHOOL The Scrap Book fThe Prophecy for the Class of '241 HE YEAR IQ4O is famous in the history of the world because of the great strides that have been made in the interests of health and sanitation. All public buildings are models of cleanliness. The historic building that bears the legend Geneva Classical and Union High School-Year of our Lord 1869 is no exception. Even the junk room has been swept and garnished. The copies of the High School News have been ruth- lessly removed from the shelves that have borne their weight so long, and, wonder of wonders! a book has been discovered which contains clippings and pictures of the famous alumni of Geneva High. You, my friends, are interested, I know, only in the members of the class of 1914, so I will tell you what I have found of interest concerning them. On the first page, I find a clipping from a South American newspaper. It says: Miss Agnes Miner has just opened the new Y. W. C. A. home for working girls. This building is the largest and most magnificent in Rio. Miss Miner who has charge of it, is considered the most competent worker in the Y. W. C. A. branch in South America. Pasted under this clipping is a picture of a hunter with much game surrounding him. Under the picture is the inscription, Dilworth Bauer, the greatest of American hunters, has just returned from his third great expedition into the wilds of the Amazon Valley. When one recalls that Dilworth was in the habit of leaving school, especially just previous to examination time to go on a hunting trip, one does not wonder at his choice of a vocation. The next thing of interest is a series of theater programs and pictures of Shakesperian actors. Two of the actors I recognize as Leo Staunton in the guise of Shylock in The Merchant of Venice and Chrissie Curtis as Portia. Under Chrissie's picture are these words: Miss Curtis has the country ringing with praise for her splendid work in Shakesper- ian roles. We feel that she has filled the gap left by the retirement of Ellen Terry. We TI-IE SENIOR ANNUAL '24 43 knew you would, Chrissie, when we remember the speaking contest of '14 when you made even the hard-hearted teachers weep copiously. The theater programs are announcements of coming features. I notice the names of Henry Page, now as famous as I-Iarold Lloyd, Ronald I-Iarmon, doubling for Rudolph Valentino, Irene Stevens the close rival of Ramon Navarro and Floyd Rhodes, an eccentric dancer with Keith's Vodvil. The next is a page, cut from the Theater Magazine. I will quote from it: Jean and Elsie Fair are making a tremendous hit on Broadway. They have recently signed a dancing contract with F lorenz Zeigfield of the Zeigfield Follies. Now, we are astonished at this. Who would have thought that our Fair Twins would ever trip it on the light fantastic, especially on Broadway! And here we have an announcement of Russell I-Iay who is scoring a successful hit in his revised version of So This is Venice. I-Iis accompanist is Leslie Funnell, a former Eastman student. I-Ie is billed with Frank I-Iancock's orchestra which is an exact reproduc- tion of Paul Whitemarfs. What is this? Oh, I see. It is a picture of a Comedian dressed as a clown. And, I do believe it's our former president William Shankwiler. Well, William! Who would have thought it. It says that he is in Franks orchestra. But, I remember now that they always were good friends. I A This next is a circus program. Seward Whitaker's name appears. I-Ie claims the title of Tallest Single Man. Now, what does that mean? ' I-Iere are two clippings. Bothare written by E. A. Coryell. critic for the New York Times. Well Cork's work with the Geneva Daily Times has at last done him a good turn! The first clipping concerns Alyn De Voll, the president of Cornell Agricultural College and, Arthur Cammett who is also a great agriculturist. These two are applying Cornellian meth- ods in the Nile Valley. 44 GENEVA HIGH SCHOOL The other clipping concerns Dorothy Dixon, Lucille Heist and Margaret Merchant. Dorothy is touring the country with her own orchestra. This is the content of the clipping: Miss Dixon, altho' very temperamehtal, is loved by those she directs. She has, under her direction, Lucille Heist, the great violinist and Margaret Merchant, the celebrated ukelele player. Margaret probably adopted the ukelele as an outlet for her overabundance of npeph.. l notice here a list of the faculty of Harvard in 1940. Two names are familiar: Gladys Magraw is teacher of singing while Elizabeth Stead is teaching voice culture and science. The next cutting is a page from the Congressional Digest. Should the U. S. zone the sky for airplane traffic? Pro-A speech made by Irene Graves, Representative from New York State. Con-Statements by Eleanor Graves, Representative from New York State. Although these sisters are opponents in Congress, Eleanor is helping Irene carry out a long cherished ambition. Their home is an immense farm where Irene, during her leisure time, raises pigs. Another report from Congress says that Irene Buchan, the President of the Womans Progressive Party has succeeded in convincing the President that her views are correct. lrene is assisted in her work by Mildred Secor, her secretary. Here is a very clever cover page, similar to those drawn by Howard Chandler Christy. Notice that Elizabeth Graves is the artist. The next is a cartoon drawn by Dick Truesdale. We all knew that Dick would be famous some day. 4 This looks like a page from a cubist magazine. Yes, that is what it is and Marjory Taylor's name is at the bottom. ' TI-IE SENIOR ANNUAL '24 45 A letter from someone in Reno, Nevada comes next. It is about Alice Goodelle. She has just made a statement favoring the passage of a new divorce bill. Her law partner, Troy Caudill, has also done much toward the passing of this bill. A ticket for a football game is pasted here. It informs us that Gordon Backus, coach of the All American football team is to referee the game. A program for the Olympic Games comes next. I see that john Prendergast is one of the runners. In the margin of this program is written, I went to see 'The Purple Tigers' play the other day. You know Ruth Kidd is their star shortstop. Who do you suppose is managing them? Elizabeth Heist! A telegram occupies the next space. It announces that Louise Klopfer and Lula Rose are opening their new novelty shop in New York City. Ruth MacArthur is head buyer and Linley Van Riper has the position of Hoor walker. - u The next item of interest is a comment on Dora Long's new book, Whats In a Name 7' In this same article Violet Wayman is praised for her volume of poems. The comment says that the book is dedicated to Wesley Martin, the commander of the Seneca, a dirigible longer than the Shenendoah. I notice that this picture is of Sherlock Holmes, How much like him is Grove Nagel! But Grove always wanted to 'be a great detective. At last he has succeeded. His latest accomplishment is the discovery of a clue which, it is hoped, will lead to the capture of the persons who broke into the High School safe during our Senior year. What is this? Ch, I see. It is a circular letter advertising the New Hotel Geneva owned by Derwin Laws. Derny has employed George Goodelle as head waiter so I am sure his enterprise will succeed. At the bottom of the letter, Clara Petersen has advertised her new chain of stores called, The Hand Bag. I imagine Clara took the idea from The Market Basket. 46 GENEVA HIGH SCHOOL These two snapshots are of Elizabeth Reynolds and Alice Wheat. The pictures were taken in front of the Presbyterian Hospital in New York City. Elizabeth is at the head of the hospital while the head dietitian is Alice Wheat. There are several more pictures-and clippings pasted in the Scrap Book. One of the pictures shows Mac Stolp and james Prince. A note under it says that Mac is follow- ing out the methods of Billy Sunday in reforming people and James has just been ordained a minister. How interesting!! On the last page I find notes about some more members of 'z4. Pauline Scott, I find, is teaching Math in Alaska in the same school with Milton Emery, now a French pro- fessor. Ralph Fillingham is a dancing teacher in Vassar. Dancing is one of the requirements for a degree. Myrtle Mogge teaches history in Geneva High School. The World's Work has added Ruth Hall to its staff. The last article is about a famous scientist. We, of '24, should be proud to think that we had as a classmate so great a scientist as Cyrus Lloyd. He has lately proved to the world that radium can actually be obtained from the sun.

The first was held on October IQ at the Masonic Temple. Attractive decorations of lavendar and white, the class colors, and beautifully tinted autumn leaves transformed the hall into an ideal setting for an evenings entertainment. Music was furnished by Scott's orchestra. On November 30 another dance was given at the Masonic Hall. In honor of the foot- ball team footballs and crossed canes tied with red and black satin bows decorated the walls. Music for the dancing was provided by the Seneca Serenaders. Hobart Gym was the scene of the third dance sponsored by the class of l24. The date was set for December zo so that alumni home for the Christmas holidays might attend. Red and green crepe streamers and pine boughs gave the gym a very fitting atmosphere. The Seneca Serenaders again furnished the music. During the evening punch was served. The last dance of the Senior class was held May 9 in the Masonic Temple. The hall was again decorated in the class colors of lavendar and white which was most tastefully carried out in sprays of wisteria, Art Dwyer's orchestra furnished the music. This dance was one of the most widely attended and was a great success, though all the dances were highly successful being well attended and thoroughly enjoyed by the students and friends of Geneva High. THE SENIOR ANNUAL '24 49 junior-Senior Parties N NOVEMBER 6, 1923, the Senior Class gave a poverty party in the Assembly hall, at which the juniors were the guests. Games and dancing provided entertainment for a large number of the- upper class students. Mary Page and George Goodelle were awarded first prizes for unique costumes, while Emma Friday and Henry Page received second prizes. Apples, doughnuts and cider were served during the evening. Mrs. Graves, Mrs. Dixon, Mr. and Mrs. Loman, Miss Parker and Miss Sweeney were the chaperons. On May io thejunior Class held a party for the Seniors, The assembly hall was gaily trimmed in rose and grey, the junior colors. Many mothers and teachers, besides a large number of students were present. Cards and mah-jong furnished the entertainment. Later dancing was enjoyed. At about 1o:3o ice cream and cake were served. The party was well attended and the guests had a jolly time until about I2 o'clock when the merry- makers turned homeward. Senior Debate N MARCH z 7, Miss Parker's and Miss Sweeney's English classes held an interesting debate, the subject being the restriction of immigration. The speakers for the negative were Alice Goodelle, Chrissie Curtis, Dora Long and William Shankwiler, while those representing the affirmative side were Cvrove Nagel, Cyrus Lloyd, Floyd Rhodes and George Goodelle. Both sides did remarkably well proving themselves able and in- telligent debaters. The judges, Mr. Merrell, Mr. Sabin and Mr. Whittemore, awarded the decision to the negative. 50 GENEVA HIGH SCHOOL The Senior Play A N DECEMBER I4 at the Opera House the Senior Class presented The Charm School, a clever and romantic comedy drama in .three acts. The action centers around a young and handsome automobile salesman, Austin Bevans by name, who, upon inheriting a young ladies' finishing school from his aunt, decides to put into effect his opinions concerning education. Accordingly he takes personal charge of the school while his four room-mates become instructors. Bevans firmly believes that all girls should be taught the value of charm, and he conducts the school with this idea in mind. However the young laides prove such apt pupils that the instructors seem quite likely, and not un- willing to fall the victims. The results are highly amusing and very exciting. Even young Bevans himself falls in love with the president of the senior class. Several of our class mates showed exceptional dramatic ability. Dorothy Dixon as Miss Curtis, the schoolsecretary, gave an excellent interpretation of her part, that of a fussy old maid, always trying to please everyone with the result that no one was quite satisfied. In a tense moment her flustered carriage and gasping breath spoke eloquently of her state of mind. Chrissie Curtis was the haughty, self-reliant principal, Miss Hays, who humbled the usual pompous and impressive Homer johns CGeorge Goodellej with her sharp tongue and stern mien, did very good work. Elizabeth Reynolds as the vivacious heroine and president of the Senior class, proved the exponent of charm. The part of the gay, spontaneous Sally Boyd, leader in every meeting, was exceptionally well played by Ada Nelson. But even these two bold, brave maids quailed before the rebuke of the dignified, handsome, but unsuccessful, automobile salesman, Cyrus Lloyd. jim and Tim Simpkins CHenry Page and Troy Caudillj the twins, were irresistibly amusing as they skipped across the stage, clad in gingham aprons or did the latest dance steps clad in immacu- late blue serge. Russell Hay made a grave and serious law student although at times the audience found him extremely amusing. Derwin Laws, as the joblesslaccountant, carries his role very well. The other members of the cast were Lula Rose, Elizabeth Stead, Mar- garet Merchant, Alice Cuoodelle and Agnes Miner who took the part of school girls and delighted in 'charming' their instructors. THE SENIOR ANNUAL '24 Y SI The junior-Senior Speaking Contest HE twenty-first annual junior-Senior speaking contest was held on May 23 in the assembly hall to decide which of the two classes should have the honor of the custody of the 1902 and the 1921 loving cup.

TERRY 52 GENEVA HIGH SCHOOL Athletic Review Football E HAD a comparatively green team to start out with in football and the team was rather erratic during the season. Winning the first contest-that with Starkey Seminary-in easy fashion 68-o. We lost following game to Buffalo Tech. 7-o, thru lack of experience to take advantage of the breaks. The following week Elmira drubbed a somewhat demoralized team 44-7. That one touch-down we secured proved that at one time in the game and one time only Geneva showed fight and forward-passed it's way to 7 points. If that spirit had but lasted we might have tied the score and even won. After an open date when we had no game, we de- feated St. Johns of Manlius Q uniorsb I4-O. G Then followed the best game of the season. Trailing bvo at the end of first half, we came back in second with a bewildering over-head game that de- feated Cook Academy I9-6. The next z games were lost, to Cascadilla at Ithaca, to C. B. A. at Syracuse. We were capable of winning both those encounters but injuries to first string men and lack of capable substitutes proved our downfall. Then came the hectic set-to with St. Francis which ended 6-6. Altho we had St. Francis outclassed the ground was too muddy to do sufficient scoring to prove it. The team was as follows, Ends Bergman-Peck, Tackles Capt. Shankwiler-Goodelle, Guards Calabrese-Wyatt, Center Potter, Quarter-back Stolp, Half-Backs Harding-O'Connor-Glanville, Full-back Stevens. A THE SENIOR ANNUAL '24 53 iBasketBczll N BASKET-BALL we won Championship of Finger Lakes League and the right to represent said league in District Tournament at Rochester. Due to the fact we were compelled to win 3 games in 5days to finally secure the championship the team went to Rochester tired and were eliminated in the first roundg but we had a very successful season. Facing a difficult season with a green team and a new system of play, we dropped our Hrst 2 games to Lyons and C. B. A. respectively which schools each had veteran teams. From that time on we won all our games until we struck a mid-season slump which started with a 2OfIQ defeat at hands of Waterloo at Waterloo. Alumni fell first I7-I 5, then Penn Yan Academy 15-13, next Rochester Tech. succumbed 42-25, Waterloo was walloped 28-1 5. And for first time in several years Canandaigua was defeated at Canan- daigua 24-2o in a wonderful battle. In a game that was full of thrills and was any- body's game up to final whistle, we defeated the strong Brockport Normal team 19-18 on Armory Court. Then came the slump which lost us the next 3 games, 20-19, Brockport at Brockport 34-1 5, and Rochester Teck. 25-18. But the team came back again and won the rest of games. St. johns Reserves fell 42-26 and we had sweet revenge by walloping Lyons at Lyons 26-1 5. Then came the3 games in 5 days, we had to win and which tired the team and put us out of the running at District Tournament. Canandaigua was first victim and a difficult problem they proved to be. The game was played at Armory and first half ended 7-3 our favor, we secured 6 points to Canandai- gua's3 in the second half giving us a 13-6 victory. In second battle we easily disposed of Penn Yan 40-ZO. But Phelps with their steveing team gave us a scare. We led I5-4 at end of half and they climbed the score to 22-I8 with shots from center of floor. The boys took hold of the short pass, criss cross game in a remarkable manner. There were no outstanding stars. Each man was but a cog in a machine. The team consisted of Lloyd and Rippey center, Larrison, Stolp, Stevens, Pelton forwards, and Harding and Capt. O'Connor guards. Rippey played same at guard as did Pelton. SUMMARY Geneva IQ 28 Lyons IO 20 C. B. A.

S4 GENEVA HIGH SCHOOL Wrestling RESTLING as an interscholastic sport was taken up this year for the first time in the history of G. H. S. We participated in two meets winning one and losing one. In our first meet-that with East High of Rochester-we met a team composed of veterans of several years and proved easy victims, altho we did secure z decisions over our more experienced op- ponents. It was a different story when we met the team representing Charlotte High of Rochester. Like ourselves Charlotte started wrestling only this year We defeated them quite easily. We will have practically the same team next year and ought to go big. The team was com- posed of Bunis IOS lb., Beattie II2, Price 118, Martin IZ4,,JOl'1l'lSOl'1 133, Hay 147, Capt. Potter I6O, Prendergast 175, Calabrese 175 and over. Beattie, Price, Potter, Prendergast, and Calabrese earned letters. i Track NE NIGHT, after practice, I sent the lacrosse men on a run up around jay St. and back. Howard Gardner came in considerably ahead of the rest and comparatively fresh and I asked him if he would like to train for the mile run. In this way interest in track was started. In his first start-at Invitation Meet of University of Syracuse-Gardner secured 4th place out of a field of 39 runners. His performance was very creditable considering his lack of experience. We finally decided to train Stolp, lacrosse Captain, for quarter-mile and Gardner for half-mile in the state meet. In order to qualify for the State Meet one must secure a first place in his event at the District Championship Meet. The meet for our district, No. 11, occurred at Rochester May 24th. but due to the fact that we were playing Central High at Syracuse that date for Championship of the State in Lacrosse we were given permission to compete in No. IO district at Ithaca, May 3 Ist. Stolp, who had played lacrosse against Vocational High the day before secured 3rd in quarter while beating our representatives from Elmira, Ithaca and Cortland. The time of the 440 was 55 :1. Gardner, being absolutely fresh, easily won his event, the half-mile, in 2:9 and z fifths. This qualifies him for state meet this week, ,Iune 7, at Ithaca. The schools in the district finished in following orderACortland 21, Elmira, IQ Penn Yan 15, Ithaca 14, Watkins 12, Corning II, Waverly 9, Geneva 7, Homer 2, Elmira Heights o, Horseheads o. Geneva with only 7. men entered, made a most respectable showing. Next year, with our new gym we can start training boys in jumps, shotput, etc., and qualify more men in the State Meet. THE SENIOR ANNUAL '24 55 Lacrosse OR THE second consecutive year G. H. S. has captured Championshipof the state in lacrosse. Starting with an almost entire green defense and 2 new faces in the attack we have swept thru the season without a defeat, winning 7 games with only a comparatively easy game yet to play with Voca- tional at Syracuse. - There has been no question of the superiority of G, H. S. over every opponent as each game was won decisively by a top heavy score. Our greatest rival, Central High of Syracuse, was easily defeated in 2 contests one here in the mud 6-2 and on dry field at Syracuse 8-o. One of the players was heard to remark, Much of the successiof this years team is due to the fact that the team is fighting all the time never satisfied to let up with the last whistle blows. Such an attitude is always rewarded. It is always a remarkable achievement to be- come Champions of the state in any line of sport. One more year as Champions and the large silver loving cup is ours permanently. We started the season with a practice game against Hobart Frosh. WC all thought the Frosh would give us a battle but we had things all our own way winning easily I3-2. The following week we played our first regular scheduled game with Hobart 11-2 Clffroshj and again demonstrated our superiority. Next came Central and Oh how it rained! We delayed starting the game until 4 o'clock and by then the rain had ceased but what a sea of mud it left to play in. Central players kept their feet much better than ours did but again we had things our own way and won 6-2. In the game with Syracuse Erosh the following week in Syracuse Stadium we seemed ro demonstrate that we were a Hock of mud hens as we won easily again in a sea of mud 12-4. It was a much surprised and chagrined bunch of Red and Black warriors that left the field at end of half at Cornell the following week with only one goal scored, Entering the game with the idea that they were unbeatable and could take things easy, they met a rude surprise. The Cornell Frosh were fighting to win and they deserved to win in the first half. But in second half Geneva looked more like its old self and scored 4 more goals while Cornell was getting 2. Score 5-2. For some time now the Hobart Frosh had been telling how they would beat us if we met again. So to please them we staged another regular game and again defeated them 6-1. Then came our second encounter with Central at Syracuse. We had pointed toward this game since the first encounter with them. A truck load of girls and many other sup- porters were on hand to cheer us on to victory and a grand victory it was. It was over- whelming, after the first io minutes there was no question of the outcome. Stevens shot a goal then and was followed 45 seconds later by one by Larrison, After that Geneva had things all their own way. Final score was 8-o. The game with Vocational at Geneva High on Memorial Day brought out the largest crowd that has witnessed Geneva High play since lacrosse was instituted as major sport. The Red and Black had reached their peak in the Central game and was not up to form. Vocational had a better team than last year. Geneva secured 7 goals in first half and 6 in second, while holding Vocational scoreless. The defensive play of Goodelle, Loyd and 56 GENEVA HIGH SCHOOL Whitaker kept the ball in Vocational territory most of the time. Harding, Stevens and Stolp each scoring, themselves guarded the center of Field in fine shape assisting the two Larrisons, O'Connor, Bergman and Ward and Fairfax to score also. SUMMARY C. H. S.
