The Osky Wow embodies within its pages the events of the school year. And so the Staff has made this, the 1928 yearbook of Jackson High School, the Osky Wow of Progress. Conscious as we are of the inadequacies of this volume, it is our hope that in years to come, it will recall some of the pleasant memories and friendships formed here. If this is done our aim will have been achieved. Compiled by Maurice Lee Schellenger EDITOR - IN - CHIEF and Charles B. Davis BUSINESS MANAGER Dedication To the Citizens of Jackson who have ever loyally supported our schools and have on every occasion proved to be true friends of Education, we respectfully and gratefully dedicate this Osky Wow of Progress. Our Old High School Building Pleasant Memories will ever make Old Kitmison High dear to our hearts. Our New High School Building -where future classes of Jackson High will enjoy every modern facility Osky Wow Smiles Ruth Sheward—“Doesn’t my hair need cutting awfully?” Evert W.—“No, it seems to be cut that way now.” Miss Woodruff—“George, did you throw any of those paper wads which are sticking on the black board?” George H.—“No, mine didn’t stick.” Mr. Henson—The trouble with the great open space is that so many of them are located under hats.

Mr. Henson says, “The best way to get to the top is to go to the bottom of things” Dwane Whitaker—“Where is your chivalry?” Ebby Barlow—“Oh, that old thing? I traded it for a Cadillac”. There are better things than money, but it takes money to buy them.

Sweeping out the shop?” Vinton McCoy—“No I’m sweeping out the shavings and leaving the shop.” Cecil Harper—“I saw about 50 rabbits dead on the way to school this morning.” Dwight Nichols—“Who killed them?” Cecil—“The Boll weevils ran them to death trying to get the cotton out of their tails.” Mr. Thomas—(In music period) “Why all the confusion?” Lewis Davis—“Ah! he was humming the second verse instead of the iirst one.” “What is ordinarily used as a conductor of electricity?” asked the Prof. “Why-er” began the student all at sea. “Wire, Correct. Now tell me what is the unit of electric power?” “The what sir?” “Exactly, the watt. Very good. That will do.” Order of Books FACULTY SENIOR JUNIOR SOPHOMORES FRESHMEN ACTIVITIES LITERARY ATHLETICS ADVERTISEMENTS Osky Wow Smiles Dad—“I saw your teacher today and she said you were at the foot of the class.” Small Boy—“Aw what’s the difference?

Mr. Glandon— What are you doing with all those sweaters on?” Beginner in manual training: W’ell I was going to varnish a piece of furniture and Mr. Jones said I’d have to pui on at least three coats and it wouldn’t hurt to have four.” Another exam paper Classic: Magna Charta”, the pupil wrote, was a soldier in the Revolutionary war who was seriously wounded. His wife, hearing of the incident, immediately went to him, picked up his gun, and sa.d, Shoot if you must this old grey head, but I will fight it out on ihis line if it takes all summer.” Charles Davis— I see I’m only a pebble in your life.” Mary Wood— I wish you were just a little boulder.” Miss Price— What was the stone age?” Carl Baehr— That was the period when a man axed a woman to marry him.” Jene W.— Are autos ruining the younger generation?” Helen M.— No, younger generation is ruining the autos.” Chas.

Jackson High had grown in its enrollment from year to year and the curriculum had expanded to the point where the all too meager facilities were taxed to the limit. Some of the classes were required to meet in small portable classrooms, others in the old Central Building. But within the next year or two, the high school will move into a commodious new building made possible by the voters of Jackson who authorized a $250,000 bond issue at the election in November, 1027. This bond issue was approved by a small margin after an intensive campaign to acquaint the voters of Jackson with the needs of the schools. This was the largest bond issue ever asked in this city and the task of securing its adoption was not a small one by any means. A citizen’s committee with Harold K. Schellenger ’20 as chairman was named to conduct the campaign. The board of education devoted itself whole-heartedly to the work. One member especially, Charles H. Jones ’02, gave almost his full time to the compaign, and made speech after speech in favor of the bond issue. The women’s clubs of Jackson, the various fraternal orders, the ministers, and other groups and individuals worked unselfishly for the cause of better schools. The students also had their part in the campaign, distributing literature, doing personal work at home, staging a big parade, and otherwise aiding in every way possible. At the present time, the site of the new building and the various architectural features have not yet been determined, but the board of education is working on these matters to the end that actual construction may be started just as soon as possible. The board members are determined, however, to give Jackson ju-t as good a building as possible for the money to be expended. They are studying other mod rn school buildings in various cities, in order that Jackson may have the very best. ----- - miL ____________________ THE SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS Walden Jenkins, President Mary McDonald, Vice-President Lura Robbins, Secretary George Abraham, Treasurer Flower Violet Colors Blue and White Motto “On The Threshold” Page Twenty-two = IM£ O O f-WOW George Abraham Science Club (1); Glee Club (1-2-3-4) ; President (4) ; Football (2-3-4) ; Basket ball (3-4); Captain (4); Treasurer of Class (4); “Stop Thief (3); Public Speaking Club (4); Track (3-4); Spanish Club (4).

Page Forty-eight Page Forty-nine Sophomore Activities After a summer’s rest our Sophomore class, like a great ship which has sailed over both troubled and untroubled waters, will be ready to embark once again; this time, upon the last half of our High School journey. And the sun as it glistens upon the topmost parts of the ship may well represent our successful activities of the past. This year we have been introduced to many activities, differing in number and importance fro'-i those of our Freshman days. As our first step toward organization we held, in the early part of the year, a meeting at which we elected the following as our leaders: Thomas Patterson, president; Jean Wood, vice-president; David L. Jones, treasurer; and Ada Merle Stephenson, secretary. Our class then began to show its true value. From our midst have arisen honor students and promising athletes and musicians. The clubs, such as the Home Economics, the Biology, and the Industrial Arts, are almost entirely composed of Sophomore pupils. This spring the Blue Triangle Club also admitted its future workers, the Sophomores. Our dramatic ability was first demonstrated by a one act play, “The Will O’ the Wisp,” the proceeds of which were forwarded to the athletic fund; and we also participated in the musical numbers at the School Eisteddfod. As a fitting climax for our year’s work we are to hold a Sophomore party. So with each member as one of the crew, we are awaiting our next embarking. Helen Summers.

Some of us desired to become school teachers, and registered for courses which would train us for that work. Others, to become doctors, lawyers, engineers, nurses, stenographers, merchants or the many other occupations which now interest the world, was our desire or ambition and they too, registered for the same. When September came, most freshmen were rather eager for school to commence. After the usual excitement of beginning school was over, we found our courses not unlike our former. Junior High, studies. In fact there was one feature exactly alike and that was work. We found high school just the same when it came to work, and that we must do it, if we wish to reach the high standards, our teachers held for us. A few of our class members decided to start, without all of the high school education. One preferred matrimony, another farm life. I am sure the freshman class wish them well in all cases. We have also been so unfortunate as to lose two of our members by their moving to another city; to these also we give our best wishes. The freshman class established a precedent when they gave a one act play, “The New Poor,” in conjunction with the sophomores who also gave a play. Both were thought to be a success and all the benefits went to the Athletic Club, to use as they see fit. The freshman party, this year, was held the last Friday in April. The evening was spent in games in which most all took part. A quartet gave several musical numbers and all departed, after the refreshments were served, with a good time greeting on their lips. The enrollment of the entire class of Freshman is one hundred-twenty-seven,— Fifty-eight boys and sixty-nine girls, who occupy three rooms as their assemblies. One is a basement room, numbered ten, and the other two are on the second floor, Rooms seven and eight. We are not sure but that the Seniors do not look upon us with envious eyes— for are we not destined to pass the last two years of our high school career in the new building? This is really a wish as the freshman class of 1927-28 certainly hope this will be true for the standard and beautification of the city of Jackson. Marv G. Ridenour.

The Football Banquet Honoring the 1927 football team of Jackson High, champions of southeastern Ohio, the businessmen of Jackson gave a banquet at the Cambrian Hotel December 15. The banquet was one of the most elaborate and well arranged ever held in the city, and was a fitting climax to the successful season of Jackson’s football warriors. More than 30 members of the football squad with Coach Theodore Roberts and other members of the coaching and managerial staff were guests of honor. Judge Frank DeLay was toastmaster of the evening. Among the local people on the program were Mr. Glandon, Mr. Kinnison, Coach Roberts, Captain Floyd McCoy, Cheerleader Mildred James. Distinguished visitors present were George M. Trautman, assistant director of athletics at Ohio State; Sam Williman, assistant football coach at the same school; and Chic Harley, famous football star. All of these men were on the program for talks. At the close of the evening’s program, Charles H. Jones presented the team with a beautiful football trophy, having the names of the entire squad engraved upon it. Coach Roberts was also given a handsome wrist watch on behalf of the citizens of Jackson. The beautiful decorations, the elaborate menu, and the interesting program all went to make an evening long to be remembered. Much credit should be given Dan P. Coll, Jr., general chairman, and his co-workers for the success of the evening. The Junior'Senior Reception The Junior-Senior reception, outstanding event of the high school social season, was held at the Jackson County Country Club May 18. Here, amid a beautiful setting artistically arranged by the decorating committee, the juniors were hosts to the class of 1928. Nothing had been left undone which might go to make the evening a real success, in keeping with the delightful affairs of previous years. Du wane Whitaker, president of the juniors, gave the address of welcome, to which Walden Jenkins, senior president, gave the response. Then following the elaborate dinner, Alvin Shick presided as toastmaster for the interesting program which had been arranged. Margaret McCoy gave a piano solo, “Romance,” followed by a toast by Cereta Arthur on “Juniors.” Orchestral numbers were next enjoyed after which Paul Webb gave a toast on “Thoughts.” Margaret Watson sang “The World Is Waiting for the Sunrise,” followed by the closing toast, “To the Women,” by Louis Fen-ning. Dancing was next enjoyed to the strains of music provided by Woodie’s Collegians of Athens. For those who did not care to dance, interesting games were arranged. Arrangements were in charge of the junior officers, assisted by the social committee, Wilma Dearing chairman, and the decorating committee, with Edward Claar as chairman. Misses Elizabeth Lewis and Edna Price also assisted greatly in making the affair the wonderful success it was.

Elizabeth Jones and Charles Chapman were the winners of these awards, and the presentation was made on commencement night by John H. Newvahner, a member of the Rotary Club. The plan used in selecting the winners is such that the students thus honored must be real leaders of their class throughout the high school period. Qualities considered in determining the winners are character, scholarship, extra-curricular activities, loyalty, athletics, courtesy, attitude, personality, and attendance. The citizenship award presentation is to be an annual event in Jackson High. This year's winners will not be known till commencement night.

Page Seventy-nine Review of the Season A most glorious football season was that of '27, for the gridiron warriors of K. H. S. proved their superior mettle by playing victoriously their entire schedule and by finally winning the Championship of Southeastern Ohio. In most games they utterly outclassed their opponents; in a few they were victorious only through dogged grit and determination; in one game they were held scoreless; but never were they defeated! The season opened Sept. 24 with Oak Hill, the game being played there. It was evident from the first that the Oak Hill team was outclassed. Many substitutions were made for Jackson, the second and third teams playing the greater part of the time. The game ended with the onesided score of 33 - 0 Jackson. The next game also was played out of town when the K. H. S. squad journeyed to Athens, Oct. 1, and played on the University City's gridiron. It was a hard fought battle from beginning to end. The intense heat of the afternoon was a great handicap to both teams, however the Red and White displayed their true caliber. The first score of the game was made by Jackson in the second quarter when Abraham carried the ball for a touchdown and Bloss kicked goal. Throughout the remainder of the game until the last minutes of the last quarter the score remained unchanged. Then Athens, by a series of forward passes succeeded in carrying the pigskin across but failed in their attempt to kick goal, the kick being blocked by Abrams. The gains ended shortly after with the score 7-6 Jackson. On Saturday Oct. 8, the K. H. S. eleven journeyed to Ironton to meet the River City squad. The teams were evenly matched and the attempts of one team to gain territory were always met with the stubborn opposition of the other. Although both teams were urged to victory by the lusty and encouraging cheers from the side lines the last quarter came to a close with a 0 - 0 score. The next two games were played on the home field. On Friday, Oct. Page Eighty Review of the Season 14, Logan was Jackson High’s victim. It proved an easy game, 19-0. Logan showed little opposition and consequently the second stringers of Jackson shared their part of the fray. In a second home game played Saturday, Oct. 22, Jackson handed Gallipolis a 32-0 defeat in spite of the fact that earlier in the season Gallipolis held Athens to a scoreless tie. This game was a neat avenging of the defeat suffered last year by K. H. S. at Gallipolis by a 6 - 0 score. Jackson’s next two games were very easily won. In the first of these played at Middle port, Oct. 28, the weak Pomeroy team was defeated by a 22 - 0 score. However, after Jack-ron’s first two touchdowns made in the first two plays of the game, the Pomeroy eleven began to show a fighting spirit and consequently the “scoreless wonders” saved themselves from being defeated by a gigantic score. Several substitutions had been made in Jack«on’s line-up for the beginning of the game. Then on Nov. 12 on the local field, Oak Hill as again defeated by the K. H. S. grid-cers by the tune of 57 - 0. The first team played only the first quarter, the second and third teams playing the remainder of the game. New Boston was the next victim of the victorious K. H. S. squad. This hard fought game on the home field, Nov. 18, was played in a steady downfall of snow. The mud-covered players found much difficulty in executing their plays because of the wet and muddy field. Jackson’s only touchdown was made in the opening c.f the second quarter. The ball had Iren advanced by long end runs and line plunges, when Jenkins fumbl'd and then recovering the ball, crossed the goal line for the winning touchdown. Barlow' added the extra point. The New Bostonians found it impossible to gain through Jackson’s line and so the game ended 7-0, with one more victory added to Jackson’s long list. Jackson was now the only undefeated team of the Southeastern Ohio league; however, we had one more league game to play and that one on Thanksgiving Day with our old rival, Wellston. The winning of that game held a two-fold victory for us; namely, beating Wellston and cinching the claim of the Southeastern Ohio Championship. So according to schedule, Nov. 24, on the home field, was the great game of the season, the clash with Wellston. A part of the contest was played in a downpour of rain; the slippery, muddy field handicapping the K. H. S. squad from its usual fast play. Most of the game was played in Wellston’s territory, the visitors rarely getting within 35 yards of the Jackson goal. Wellston was on the oefense most of the time, making only one or two first downs during the entire game. K. H. S. scored in every quarter of the contest. In the first quarter, Bloss carried the ball over in a long run, and Barlowe plunged for an extra point. During the second period, Jenkins made a touchdown, but the try for the extra point was not successful. Bloss again scored in the third period, but the locals were unable to gain the extra point. A safety in the final quarter added two more points to the score. The Jackson players displayed consistently good ball throughout the contest. During the last quarter Coach Roberts ran in the second and third teams. With the end (5 Page Eighty-two TIME 'C O 'il'WOW Review of the Season of the last quarter, Jackson had defeated Wellston 21-0 and now were undisputed Champions of Southeastern Ohio. This K. II. S. football squad of ’27 At the close of the football season because of the notoriety and reputation of Jackson’s Southeastern Championship Team, Hamilton, Champion of Southwestern Ohio, challenged them to a game to be played on Hamilton’s field Dec. 3. Jackson promptly accepted the challenge. In this game, with all odds against them and yet fighting fiercely for supremacy, the team of Jackson High bowed to defeat for the first time this year. The great odds which seriously handicapped Jackson was the lightness of the team; being outweighed by Hamilton on an average of 20 pounds to the man. The first score of the game was made by Jackson when after recovering a fumble made by Hamilton on the kick-off, Jenkins carried the ball for the only touchdown. A pass from Bloss to McCoy was good for the extra point. Hamilton broke Jackson’s lead at the end of the first quarter when Hamilton made a touchdown and kicked goal. For the rest of the game Hamilton averaged a touchdown a quarter. Although defeated by a 25-7 score the defeat (was shameless to the hitherto victors. Their skill and knowledge of the game and their never give up spirit made a great impression on the Hamilton people who remarked freely that it was the lightness of the team that was responsible for the defeat. Hamilton was the second team this year to score against Jackson while Jackson was the third team to score against Hamilton. Page Eighty-three Review of the Season bringing to themselves and to their school the honor of champions of southeastern Ohio, have also made an enviable record in football history of Jackson High. Never during their football careers was “can’t” or ‘Von’t their spirit; their spirit was “can” and “will”. May the determination, grit, and spirit of this year's team inspire the teams of the coming years to deeds as glorious.

Although Coach Roberts endeavorer to make this year’s team keep the pace set by the team of ’27, the new material, with their lack of experience and teamwork, were seriously handicapped. Jackson High School opened the basketball season by being defeated by the decisive score of 14-37 on the Pomeroy floor, Jan. 6. Jackson’s inexperienced team was entirely outclassed by the Pomeroy squad which was composed of four letter men of the previous year. Many substitutions were made for Jackson. The following night the K. H. S. eagers met Athens, and again suffered a decisive defeat, the score being 31 - 15. Although very slow in setting their defense, in the last half of the game the K. H. S. quintet staged a comeback, chiefly through the work of Taylor playing offensive guard. On Jan. 13, in the Ironton High gym. after holding the I. H. S. Tigers until the last minutes of play, the K. H. S. basketeers met defeat 20-12. However, wonderful improvement was shown by the Jackson team in this game. The K. H. S. squad, fct er journeying on to New Boston, played a good game, Jan. 14 in the New Boston gym., being defeated after a close contest by a 27 - 24 score. This game will be remembered by the enormous number of fouls called on both teams. The continued improvement of the Jackson eagers was displayed Jan. 27, when they defeated thy Wellsion quintet 27-11 on the home floor. This was the fastest game the Jackson basketeers had played this season and the team worked together in a spectacular manner, clearly outclassing Wellston. Then losing the high stride of the previous week, the K. H. S. squad were defeated Feb. 3 on the home floor. Many fouls were call- Page Eighty-six Review of the Season ed on both teams. Jackson fought hard and most of the game was fast and furious but nevertheless the New Boston team was able to hold the lead at the finish, defeating K. H. S. 29 - 21. On Feb. 11 the Portsmouth quintet defeated the Jackson squad 38 -31 after a fast and hard fought game. The Portsmouth team was composed entirely of letter men from last year’s squad; and, consequently they excelled in almost perfect teamwork. On the other hand the K. H. S. five were hitting a high stride and playing hard and fast. However, Portsmouth stellar passwork and accurate shooting won the game. Avenging the decisive victory of Jackson earlier in the season, the Wellston squad defeated the Jackson quintet by a 24 - 18 score Feb. 17 on their own floor. For some reason the K. H. S. five failed to “get going” and, consequently, the Wellstonians were victors. The following night, Feb. 18, after journeying to Galli-polis the K. H. S. squad was completely outclassed by the fast Gallipolis team. During the earlier part of the game the Jackson five held the Gallipolis quintet in a capable fashion; but Jackson’s defense became weaker as the game progressed. After the first team failed to show as good form as usual, Coach Roberts sent in the second stringers. After playing the best game of the season, the K. H. S. quintet defeated the Logan five on the local floor Feb. 24 to the tune of 21-16. The two teams were about evenly matched but the Logan five found it next to impossible to penetrate the defense set by the K. H. S. basketeers. The entire game was fast, both teams showing good teamwork. At the class A tournament held at Athens, March 8, 9, and 10, the Jack-son five were eliminated from the meet when defeated by Logan 22 - 18. Although the K. H. S. squad had de- V f I ■ II , ■ V Page Eighty-seven wt OSIMt-WOWl Review of the Season feated the Logan team in the previous game, they were unable to hand them a second defeat. During the entire basketball season Coach Roberts worked faithfully for the success of the team and his efforts are greatly appreciated, not only by the members of the squad but also by the student body. Since four stellar members of the team of ’27 graduate this vacancy had to be filled with inexperienced players for the team of ’28. This year the team will again suffer loss by losing four capable players, namely Capt. Abraham, Taylor, McCoy, and Steele. But since Coach Roberts gave much attention this year to class teams for building up good material and with his coaching next year, everything looks rosy, for the Season of ’29. —Basketball Schedule— Jan. 6—K.

Page Eighty-eight 1SME iH Review of the Season The Girls Basketball Team finish ed the season of 28 with about an even break of games lost and won. This team was handicapped even more than the boys for this was Coach Wick's first year with the K. H. S. girls and, as Capt. Pilcher and Lewis were the only letter girls of last year's squad, she undertook a great task. The lack of teamwork and co-operation among the girls was very noticeable, and several times it alone was responsible for defeat. The girls opened their season Dec. 16 on the home floor. The fast Hamden team, having played several games previously, were victorious; winning by the small margin of two points. The next game was Dec. 22 at Coalton. The game was very slow as Coalton showed little opposition, and the K. H. S. cagers were winners by a 16-6 score. On Dec. 23, the Alumnae Team was defeated by the Jackson Varsity squad to the tune of 27 - 20. This game with the Alumnae showed an improvement in the hitherto absent teamwork. Then on Jan. 6 the Girls’ team journeyed to Pomeroy to meet the undefeated P. H. S. squad. The Pomeroy team proved too strong and easily defeated the K. H. S. girls by a score of 48 - 22. Having played nothing but strict girls rules the Jack-son girls were somewhat confused when the referee called only boys rules. The following game was with Bloomfield on the home floor Jan. 13. Although the B. H. S. sextet put up a pretty good fight and saved the game from becoming monotonous, the K. H. S. lassies were easily the winners by the score of 35 - 11. Then on Jan. 21 the Jackson team met the Oak Hill squad on Oak Hill's floor. During the first two quarters, one team and then the other held the lead; at the half Jackson was leading by one point. The second half was much like the first but Oak Hill held high score when the whistle blew, Page Eighty-nine Review of the Season thereby defeating the K. H. S. squad 27 - 24. A great many shots were missed by Jackson in the first half while the Oak Hill lassies showed pretty sure shooting. Then on Jan. 27 came the game to be played with Wellston on the home floor. Jackson played real basketball during the first half, holding the Wellstonians in a capable manner, but in the second half the K. H. S. girls fell as victims to Wellston’s renewed energy. Wellston clearly excelled throughout the game in their accurate passing and teamwork. On February 3 after journeying to Athens, the Jackson girls hit their highest stride of the season. Athens fast team was confident; however, the Red and White team as ready to fight. The first quarter was a walk-a-way affair for the Athenians, but from then on the guards of K. H. S. played real basketball and Athens’ shots for the basket were few and far between. The forwards of Jack-son, endeavoring to play up to the guards, excelled in teamwork. The playing was hard and fast and when the final whistle blew, the K. H. S. lassies were leading 22 - 30. The Jack-son team continued their winning streak when they defeated Petersburg 24 - 18 on the home floor Feb. 11. Jackson’s second team played a great part of this game. At Wellston on Feb. 17, Jackson met the Wellstonians for the return game. At the beginning of the game Jackson proclaimed herself a match for the W. H. S. team. However by superior teamwork Wellston was again able to defeat the Red and White basketeers; this time by the score of 26 - 18. The following night the K. H. S. girls journeyed to Gal-lipolis. From start to finish the Galli-polis players showed excellent shooting and, as a result, defeated the Jackson squad 40 - 20. On Feb. 24 the Jackson girls journeyed to Lancaster where they were completely outclassed by the large Page Ninety Review of the Season % and fast Lancaster team, the score being: 30 - 8. Then on the home floor Feb. 27, after a poorly played game the K. H. S. girls won over the Petersburg team by a 19-20 score. The game was won on fouls. On Mar. 2 the K. H. S. team entered the class B tournament at Wells-ton. By the irony of fate Jackson drew Wellston. So on the afternoon of Mar. 2, Jackson met Wellston with the determination to win. The game was fast and hard fought; the referee was always two plays behind time; the cheering was deafening while the score stood :IG - 27 with four minutes to play; Wellston called time out; Jackson called time out; Wellston called time out; Wellston scored; the final whistle blew; the score was 27 -31 Wellston. All was lost, but it was lost, fighting! In view of the fact that Jackson nearly defeated Wellston while Wellston won the class B tournament, the Iv. II. S. team proved themselves fighters and worthy of a part of coach Wick’s effort and confidence. With four letter girls— Ridenour, Wood, Smith and Washam—and two other experienced players — Taylor and Deemer— left for next year’s squad, the season of ’29 promises unlimited success.

H. S. opened during April at Ironton. This was a Tri-State meet of Kentucky, West Virginia and Ohio. Competition was keen as the contestants for all the events were accomplished. Three Jackson men placed—“Nug” McCoy 2nd in high jump, “Nub” Jones 5th in pole vault and “Duckfoot” Davis 5th in mile run. On Wednesday, May 9th the dual meet with Wellston was staged. The running score for the first events was very close but towards the last the capable K. H. S. men showed their superior skill, the final score being 54 - 71, Jackson. Nine out of thirteen first places were won by K. H. S. Those who won honors for K. H. S. were: NORMAN SMITH 1st Discus 1st 100 yard dash 1st 440 yard dash 3rd 220 yard dash “EBBY” BARLOW 2nd 100 yard dash (Tie) 2nd High Hurdles 1st High Jump 1st 220 yard dash “DUCKFOOT” DAVIS 1st mile run 1st Va mile run 2nd Relay DU WANE WHITAKER 2nd Vi mile run “NUB”JONES 1st pole vault ALVIN SHICK 3rd pole vault “NUG” McCOY 2nd high jump 2nd broad jump “WALLY” JENKINS 1st low hurdles GEORGE ABRAHAM 2nd javelin The Track team of ’28 has won many honors by their ability and effort.

The team will lose three capable men by graduation—McCoy, Jenkins and Abraham. 119 ® a Page Ninety-two Literary Page Ninety-three Bill’s Idea of Modernism FIRST PRIZE STORY (By Collis Harper) Folks, I know I’m wastin’ my precious time but they told me to tell Pop to come an' express his opinion on modernism. Knowing we didn't have no money fer to be expressin' things with. I come myself. To begin with, I think you folks are wrong about modern ways. And the young ladies think they know it all. Why jest last night me and Jane had a quarrel 'cause I said, “I think the modern ways are all bunk, even to courtin’. Jest think Mom used to work all day fixin' stuff fer Pop when they were courtin'. But Jane's jest like the rest, thinks a fella oughta shell out the dough. So I had to spend all my fishin' poie money before she got filled up and I didn't eat anything at that. Then they have such fancy names fer things, Glee Club fer instance, that's modern, too, I reckon. I'd always heard lots about it so I went with a friend of mine to the Glee Club. I never laughed so much in my life. The only club I seen was a ten inch stick the director had. You oughta heard them overgrown babies squawl, every time . higgled that stick, they yelled louder, jist like they was bein' hung. An’ the only Glee I could see was the piano and it sounded like a rusty hinge. You folks oughta see my club. We got a name with a principle. It’s The Spit and Whittle Club. NO! SIR! None of 'em sissy names fer us! There's another teacher who's always sayin' we oughta git up early and see the stars. They all thought it was funny when I said, I see 'em every mornin’, not cause I git up but because I don't. Seems like Pop's fergot 'bout bein’ a boy hisself. Is this what you call Modernism ? But still Grandpa says I’m a fraidy , that I oughta be brave like he was when he killed Indians. But now, I ask you, don't I risk my life every time I go into a classroom without my lesson? Besides, most boys my size don’t have nothin' to worry 'bout 'ceptin' mabe some of the folks on his route don't have porches to put the papers on. MODERNISM! BLAH! Page Ninety-four SECOND PRIZE STORY (By Walden Jenkins) “For my part,” said Bob, “1 am going: to keep training rules, and do my best for the team.” “What’s the matter, Bob, afraid of the coach?” asked a tall red-headed boy standing near Bob. “Red, you know it isn’t that; it isn’t playing fair with the school to break training, especially with the biggest game of the season so near. And you know what Rockwell did to us in football. We should try to avenge that defeat by giving them a beating in basketball. I heard it said that the football defeat was largely due to some of the players not training.” “Alright,” said Red “I suppose I shall have to go without you, but I can’t see why a little dancing is going to hurt anyone and I’m going, basketball or no basketball.” So saying he left the gym, followed by Bob. The boys were members of the Coleman’s Academy; they were staunch friends and room-mates, besides being members of the basketball team. This conversation took place in the gym after basketball practice one evening when Roy Jennings, a tall red-headed chap, who was the center on the team, asked Bob Brown, who played forward, to go with him to a dance at a roadhouse, a short distance from town, which was to take place the night before the basketball game with Rockwell College. Bob did not sleep well that night for he knew if Red, the main-stay of the team, was not up to form there was a big chance of Coleman’s losing the game. “Red has always been indifferent,” thought Bob. “Was that way in football, never caring whether he trained or not. I must think of a way to keep him from attending that dance.” After some moments s; ent in deep thought Bob suddenly sat upright in bed and exclaimed, “I have it, an 1 if we don’t win that game my name isn’t Bob Crown.” Now that he had the worry off his mind he soon fell asleep. The next morning Bob went down to the telegraph office to see a friend of his, who worked there to help pay his way through school. When Bob left the office with his friend both boys were smiling and thinking of Red and the basketball game. It was Friday evening just a night before the big game, Red and Bob were in their room talking. Red was dressing for the big “hop,” as he called it, and kidding Bob for not going along. A knock sounded at the door, “Come in,” yelled Red, in high glee, for he was in good spirits thinking about the good time he would have that night. A boy opened the door and, after winking at Bob, handed a telegram to Red and then made his departure. “What is it, Red?” exclaimed Bob, jumping up. “I don’t know yet, but I hope it isn’t bad news,” responded Red tearing the envelope open. “Good Gosh!” said Red after reading the telegram, “And to think, just when I had planned a good time for tonight.” “What’s the news,” cried Bob, although he could hardly conceal a smile, for he knew what the telegram said. “My Dad’s coming for the game, said he wouldn’t be here till late tomorrow' night and wouldn’t get to see me before the game but said he would probably get to see the game. That means I’ll have to show my stuff tomorrow night or else— wrell you know my Dad, Bob.” “Well Red if you are to play your best tomorrow night you can’t go to that CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE Page Ninety-five Loyalty CONTINUED FROM PRECEDING PAGE dance for you know it will make you sluggish on your feet during the game. So you had better call the dance off, and turn in early with me tonight, if you expect to 4do your stuff’ before your Dad.” “I don’t know,” Red said thoughtfully, “I guess I had better call it off and get to bed early.” “Good!” cried Dob. “Now we’ll win this old ball game!” It was a few minutes of eight, Saturday night, the coach of Coleman was giving his last instructions to his team before the big game. “Boys, we must win the game. All of you are in tip-top shape and, if you play hard every minute you’re in there, we can win. Now go in the game with a determination to play your best, and good luck to you.” The teams filed out on the floor and in a few minutes the game was on. The teams seemed evenly matched, neither team getting a lead, but one being ahead one minute and the other team going in the lead the next. First the Rockwell section would yell, “Fight ’em Rockwell, Fight ’em, Fight ’em!” Then from Coleman, “Coleman Rah, Coleman Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah Coleman!” The Coleman five were playing well, and Red was doing his best but they could not keep the lead. There were only five seconds to play and the score was 36-37 in favor of Rockwell. Red was in the center of the floor, and receiving a pass from one of his team mates, he tried a long shot. The ball hit the rim of the basket and, after bouncing around it for a time, during which the people all held their breath and all was quiet, finally fell through the basket, giving Coleman a one point lead over Rockwell. The gun boomed, the game was over and Coleman had won! The boys were in the dressing room, happy over their victory, when an elderly gentleman burst into the room and rushing up to Red began shaking hands with him and congratulating him for the fine game he had played. “Dad, Dad, you saw us beat them, didn’t you,” cried Red. “Yes son, and it made me feel good to know that a son of mine was out there doing his best for his school. And boy, always show the fine spirit that you showed tonight and be loyal to your school always.” Red’s father accompanied Red and Bob to their room, during which Bob hardly knew what to think. He had no idea that Mr. Jennings would be at the game. It was Bob’s plan to make Red believe his father would see the game and Bob knew well enough that Red would play his best if his father was there. He planned to tell Red all about it after the game and here Red’s father had shown up by mere accident! “Well, son, I am sorry I could not let you know 1 was coming, but it wasrft convenient to let you know and besides I wanted to surprise you.” “What do you mean, Cad? Why you sent me a telegram telling me you would be here!” “I sent you a telegram,” spoke up the perplexed father, “I — ?” “I am afraid it’s up to me to explain,” broke in Bob. Then he told the whole story. When he had finished Mr. Jennings looked at his son who was rather shamed faced, and said, “Roy, I am rather disappointed in you to think that you played the way you did tonight for me and not for your school. But I am sure this will be a good lesson, to you, and always, son, be loyal to your school.” After the father had left, Red looked at Bob and said, “Bob I see now what you mean when you say it is not playing fair with the school to break training, and after this I am going to do better in training a well as in other things.” “I am glad to see it,” said Bob, “and I hops you will always be loyal.” Page Ninety-six What Price Qlory THIRD PRIZE STORY (Robert Ervin) It is the twelfth day of September, 1918, in a hangar of the American Esca-drille in France. A stillness hangs over the building broken only by the distant rearing of the big guns or the soft droning of an airplane high in the blue sky. Within the building a military trial is in progress presided over by five officers, while around the walls stand the mechanics and pilots of the planes. The charge is spying on American artillery fortifications and reporting it to the Germans. This was placed against Freddy Raider, a very well liked boy from Boston, by Captain Joseph Ritz, a naturalized citizen living in New York City. Captain Ritz stated that he had seen Raider in his room one night looking over papers on which were plans. Ritz also said that the next day Raider had taken his scout plane and had flown into Germany, supposed to deliver these plans to the enemy. The evidence was very strong against Freddy, but the judge gave him two weeks to try to clear himself. This accusation was not such a shock to Raider, for he had always suspicioned Ritz as an aid to the Germans. Captain Ritz was a short, well built, and very efficient looking man. He was not liked by his inferiors, because of his overbearing manner. Freddy decided to watch Ritz very closely for some evidence in defense. On the twenty-third day of September, Raider was flying patrol duty over Germany when he happened to look down and noticed an American plane in a field and at closer sight he recognized it as Captain Ritz’s. At once he knew his suspicions were true, that Ritz was a German spy. Nosing towards the earth at a terrific speed, he turned the machine gun on, and the spray of lead from it did terrible slaughter to all except Ritz, who stood trembling with fright. Raider secured a written confession from Ritz at the point of a gun and commanded him to start towards the hangar after he had taken the guns and thrown out all the ammunition. The trial was speedy and just. Captain Ritz was convicted and suffered the inevitable penalty. This happened about the time that the Allied powers were preparing for a big drive to finish this greatest of wars. Ritz was shot as a spy .about one month before the Armistice would have been signed, and he would have been welcomed home. Page Ninety-seven The Worst Punishment I can very well remember an experience I had, That to me was simply awful, as a shy, embarrassed lad, Though today—I must confess it—if the same thing would befall, I am sure it wouldn’t bother nor embarrass me at all! I am thinking of my school days (they were days of precious fun!) When I’d sorely riled the teacher, by some whispering I’d done. And as punishment she put me—(well, I know you’d never guess!) For it surely was unusual—and it caused ME much distress! For it set my heart to racin’, till I felt it in my cheek, And, for once, the teacher had me—not a whisper could I speak! I am filled with shame to tell it—and I know that you’ll be shocked— For she put me in the seat with Susie Jones—to whom I’d talked! Little Susie only giggled, as did all the kids as well— They considered it a picnic, and the time they had was swell! I can see myself in fancy even now—as there I sat With, my back, against Miss Susie, who was chunky, sweet, and fat— And who didn’t seem to mind it, nor to care one little bit_ While with every passing minute, I thought 1 would have a fit! I have stood within the corner, with resentment in my heart, I have had my britches paddled in a way that mads them smart! While the other boys were playing, I have waited after school— For the teacher always caught me, every time I broke a rule! But the time that I’ll remember, till they put away my bones, Is the time I had to sit with sweet and smiling Susie Jones! Page Ninety-eight Jim Kinnison Tall an’ lank as Ichabod, Alius has a smile, er nod, Fer a feller that he meets On the roads, er in the streets, An’ jes’ bubblin’ o’er with fun— That is ol’ Jim Kinnison.

When a boy fights like Sam Hill, Jim’ll take him—yes, he will; An’ he’ll say: “No false pretense. Let me hear what’s your defense.” Oh, there may be cryin’ done ’Cause of ol’ Jim Kinnison. But his heart is soft as dough. Like as not he’ll let you go, Sayin’: “Watch out next time, lad!” Ef you don’t you’ll wisht you had. It ain’t no use to cut an’ run From foxy ol’ Jim Kinnison. Seems jes’ like sweet kindness lies All around his lips an’ eyes, An’ you sorto’ feel that he Is good clean through, jes’ nacherly, Fer you know there ain’t no one As good as ol’ Jim Kinnison. Knows about ’most ever’thing— Mettyfisics, cyphering; All about them Punic scraps, An’ a whole lot more, perhaps, Purt’ night wise as Solomon Is this ol’ Jim Kinnison. Wouldn’t trade him for the best Fine-haired teacher, East er West, Ain’t no up-to-dater, yet, Knows a boy like Jim, you bet! Oh! I wisht school’d jes’ begun Fer red-head ol’ Jim Kinnison.
