S. from September 1898 to June, 1919 Superintendent of Schools from 1919 to 1932 While Mr. Fletcher was superintendent, the schools became highly organized. He started an extensive building program, including the three Junior high schools, the Samuel Love School, additions to five of the grade schools, and the Admin- istration Building. It was his dream to climax this program with two new Senior high schools in the northern and southern parts of the city. He bought land in Poland and started the School Forest Incorporated. When he retired, he was con- sidered the most universally beloved schoolmaster the city has known and his influence is far-reaching. MR. MERTON P. CORWIN Principal of J. H. S. since September, 1920 Head of the Mathematics Department and Assistant Principal 1913 to 1920 Mr. Corwin is a natural organizer and as the author of the Jamestown adaptation of the platoon system, has with admir- able facility, pulled the high school through two extremely crowded periods. During his administration, also, the music de- partment has expanded and the famed band and orchestra of J. H. S. has been founded. Through his co-operation with Mr. Fletcher, the School Forest, Inc., has been developed and Hnanced. Both Mr. Fletcher and Mr. Corwin have honored Jamestown by serving as chairman of the New York State Association of Academic Superintendents and Principals. Mr. Corwin has also been active in civic affairs, being at present a member of the training school committee of the General Hospital and president of the Rotary Club. He is highly esteemed by the students for his fairness and sympathetic understanding of human nature. LIST OF PRINCIPALS 1868-1871 Samuel G. Love, Superin- 1890-97 tendent and Principal 1897-99 1871-76 Samuel H. Albrou 1899-1919 1876-79 A. Frank Jenks 1919-20 1879-81 William H. Truesdale 1920-34 1881-90 Rovillus R. Rogers 9 Frank S. Thorpe Almon N. Taylor Milton J. Fletcher Morton C. Helm Merton P. Corwin Mr. Samuel G. Love, the first principal of the early portion of the building now known as the Jamestown High School, was a notable educator. He was the first organ- izer of the public school system in New York State. He organized the school known as J. U. S. and C. I. and served as its principal from 1868-1869, its principal and superin- tendent from 1869-1871 and served as superintendent of schools until 1890. He was the first superintendent to establish Industrial Arts and the commercial course and to make practical physical education in the schools. His name is written high in the annals of education as well as in the hearts of Jamestown's early alumni. Mr. Rovillus R. Rogers, the second superintendent of Jamestown public schools, was also a principal of J. H. S. for nine years. K During his superintendency of thirty years, he, too, became known throughout the state as a notable educator. He was the first to establish here in Jamestown, the night school, the summer schools, free text-books, the public school kindergarten, and playgrounds for children. Many of the grade school buildings were built during his administration, among them, the Falconer Street, Newland Avenue, Charles Street, Sher' man Street, and Fairmount Avenue schools. The school park or Hundred Acre Lot was also purchased during his administration. Dr. Rogers was one of the six American educators sent to England as exchange visiting inspectors of schools. He was also presented two honorary degrees, an M.A. from Oberlin College and an L.L.D. from Berea College. Dr. Rogers also served twice as chairman of the New York Association of Academic Superintendents and Principals. The present superintendent of schools, Mr. George A. Persell, although he was never the principal of J. H. S., served as principal of the Junior Department from 1902 until 1920, when he became assistant superintendent. Though Mr. Persell has been superin- tendent for only two years, he has the distinction of having the new high school building to his credit. 10 IMPORTANT DATES IN THE HISTORY OF JAMESTOWN HIGH SCHOOL AND ITS PREDECESSORS, JAMESTOWN UNION SCHOOL AND COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE 1836 Jamestown Academy incorporated, building was located on Spring and East Fourth Streets. 1865 Union Free School opening September 12, called Jamestown Union School and Collegiate Institute, or J.

Ella W, Green, '95. 11 Editorial Every year the Red and Green is the farewell of the senior class to its beloved Alma Mater. This year it becomes even more than that. It is the farewell of every class that has ever graduated from this vener- able building. Although our senior annual is giving voice to the history and remin- iscences of all the alumni from 1868 to the present, it is reallylirst of all the voice of the class of '34. With the passing years, Father Time has changed the size and appearance of each graduating class, but he cannot alter the fact that we of '34 bear the same love for our school as did the members of the first class in 1868. We have seen this historic building at its worst, but we will always cherish in memory every nook and cranny of its well-worn old corridors and class rooms. May the 1934 year book of the Red and Green perpetuate for J. H. S. Alumni its traditions, ideals, and happy memories. 12 William R. Lingo, Who Would have been a senior section teacher this year, died on October 3, 1933, after sixteen years of outstanding service as head of the history department. His strong and Winning personality and noble character endeared him to all the students who came under his influence. Harold T. Bosely, who Was a member of the class of '34, died December 2, I93I in his sopho- more year. 13 N Z 4 V ,gil Ll Class Motto iii ill Specfemur Agenafo - L I 225, iff' 'ff L tl -ii: l -L ,L.',!mk,,rL, -5 Class F lower if Ei- White Rose - We salute thee, dear old H.

The source of this hideous uproar was Orsell Price, the world's most auda- cious window-washer commo-nly known as the human fly. The words were no sooner spoken than a can of well-known winder clean- er, Cedarquist's Polish, properly squelched Evelyn Nordstrom who stood watch- ing a display in the window of Madame Kessler's Shoppe for corpulent women. The latter was having a style show modeling the matrons, Joyce Dracup Swan- son, Jane Lundquist Astor and Claire MacPherran Abrahamson. Picking up the rather dilapidated pail, our party adjusted Knoblock jump- ing belts and landed on the sill of the window on which luminous surface was reflected Orsell,s manly beauty. Glancing into the room we noticed Ex-Governor Ford Swanson dictating to his secretary, Florilyn Clark. Two book agents, John Mitchell and Helen De Young were selling him a copy of I. Rushworth's famous Unanswerable Ques- tionsf' Our startled eyes next fell upon the unique sight of Bill Wade taking his tenth lesson in Mme. Paquin's famous School of Aesthetic dancing. He was choosing his new partners, Richard Sklarsky and Lawrence Fagerstrom. Another jump landed us at the Cumming's Broadcasting Station, where Charles Gustafson was announcing the program sponsored by the Now Now Toothpaste Company, featuring Freddy Rice and his cake-walk orchestra. As an added attraction, Miss Lillian Card, the songbird of the Appleyard, sang Too Close by Rachel QScotchyj McIntyre. It was fortunate that the program changed just then, for we had an opportunity to hear Aunty Snoz pull the wool over the little childrens' eyes by telling the bedtime story The Three Little Pork Chops and How They Grew. What is that terrible noise we hear? Hurriedly we leap to- the next window and here we witness a sight that would make the Sphinx laugh out loud. Bob Patric and his trained clowns were practicing for their first performance in Bob Sherman's three square circus. Continuing on our joy ride, we landed on the balcony of Augusta Dracup's Day Nursery. We recognized a miniature copy of Gordon Johnson giving a speech on Nord's, Essay on Scaldsf' Mary Jane Murphy's little girl was talking so rapidly that even Isabelle Rushworth's daughter was forced into the back- ground. Another outstanding figure was Seymour Smith, jr., who was busily pouring water on his sand pile and trying to produce green grass. We were aroused fro-m this fantastic sight by the clang of firetrucks in the street far below. Unless our eyes deceived us, the occupants of the fire truck 53 X 4s M 'W'!lMi lllji.+-,F W jjj-.,. 95,3 ' '. lll'.. lll'l1ja . -f T P it r':r-' rzfils ii ,. 65 . if ' Q LA . V 7 X J included Alvin Anderson, Ray Lindfors and Bill Boerst as Well as many less flaming youths of our old class of '34. At last, We arrived at the top of this wondrous building and beheld a de- lightful entertainment. It was the shooting of a scene from the once again popu- lar Little Nell, starring that charming young actress Marian Crick. The big bad villian Was being portrayed by Helmer Wickstrom While Charles Illig Was taking the part of the handsome hero. Charles Nord Was prompter Qthan he used to bej . The great production was being directed by Jack Davis. We Were reluctant to leave before the scene was finished but Orsell said he had a grand surprise for us. It was just what he said. It seems that our promising young Window-Washer had been leading a double life. The other achievement of this versatile gentleman was his pilot's license. Rather doubtfully, we climbed into his Rocket ship and jerked away. We leave you in a cloud of thunder. Clam Song VERSE: School we love so dearly, Walls, with ivy twined, Clock above the city, Fare thee well forevermore. A Tho thy Walls may crumble, Thy name We Will Hnd Be we proud or humble In our aims forevermore. CHORUS: Class of Thirty-four, now We say farewell, May our deeds, for thee, great honor spell! Alma Mater dear, by thy precepts high, We will guide our lives In which thy name survives, Till thy fame has soared above the sky. -H.

On both occasions this hilarious farce by James Montgomery resulted in a up- roar of merriment. The story is cleverly woven about a young man Who, in order to make money for a Worthy cause, bets that he can tell the truth for twenty-four hours. In doing so, he turns the table on his opponents getting them into greater diffi- culties than himself. He frequently quarrels with his future father-in-law and nearly loses his fiancee. Mable and Sable, the two chorus girls, and the pious Bishop Doran also contribute to the fun. The success of this play must be attributed to the excellent directing and sympathetic interest of Mr. Robert Wilsoin and his able assistants, Beverly Belk- nap and Clair Wigren. He has added one more successful production to his al- ready long list. y THE CAST E. M. Ralston fa brokerj ,ee.........,r,,,...,..... Robert Sherman, Howard Chadwick Mrs. E. M.

S The Ofphme Clam A group of poor little orphans are standing on the site of the old high school. The dreary rain adds to the general misery of the tear stained faces. They are the class of 1935. Through their minds are running memories of the past happy year. One little group stands apart looking a little more forlorn than the rest. They are the officers who brought them out of the chaos that reigned amidst the razing of the old building. One of the gay memories of the last year in old H. S. is the heated cam- paign for the election of those officers. They were Samuel Lundquist, president, Arthur Beal, vice president, Jane Laudenslager, secretary, Edward Gunnell, treasurer, Walter Craig, keeper of properties, and Marie Le Roy, typist. That was fun. One of the other happy memories of that last year is the Junior play, given at Lincoln Junior High on March 16, and repeated March 2 3 at Wafhington Junior High for the benefit of the Falconer Street P. T. A. Smiles come forth at this reminiscence. It was without do-ubt the funniest play ever given in old J. H. s., One more great event added to the success of the year. The Junior-Senior reception was the best one ever held. The committees were hard working and deserved much credit. The orphans, standing in the rain wiped away a furtive tear or two. Oh well, at least they had the distinction of being the only class in the history of the high schoo-l to have no school from which to graduate and the only one to be known as the orphan class. The junior 'Way Friday evening March 16, the junior class covered itself with glory in the annual play, a delectable comedy laid in a small town hotel. It proved an excel- lent vehicle for the exceptional talents of the players who were cleverly cast in various roles. Robert C.

SOPHOMORE GIRLS Solllbomore News . .51 X Heigh ho, everybody! This is the class of '56 speaking. We, as you know, will be the first class to graduate from our new J. H. S. to- be. A bright future is ahead for us and we hope to graduate with as little loss of our class as possible. To start the year right for wrongj a sophomore reception was held, being attended by parents, teachers and students. The next event was a more o-r less informal class party. Meanwhile at regular intervals our report cards have been marked, red ink being the favorite color, with a little black ink here and there. Finally the big event of the year was presented, the Sophomore Prom. Af- ter much effort and hard Work a minstrel show was given in Institute Hall, much talent being displayed. Dancing, and tons of ice-cream were enjoyed by most of those who attended. The gym was decorated with the class colors, blue and white, and the banner was displayed. One of the high-lights of the year was the victories of our basketball team over the juniors and post grads, the seniors having defaulted, leaving us the champions of the school. All in all, we believe that the sophomore year was a rousing success from every standpoint.

Hall Debate As a memorial to their son Charles E. Hall, who died during his senior year, Mr. and Mrs. Frederick P. Hall, in 1919, originated the idea of a yearly debate contest between a team chosen from the junior class and one from the senior class of J. H. S. At the time of his death, Charles Hall was the president of the Lyceum as well as the editor-in-chief of the Red and Green. He was one of the best debaters the school ever produced. It is in memory of his forensic interest and ability that this annual contest in debate is held each year. It has done much to raise the interest of this high school in debate to heights that most schools rarely atain. The winning team of the Charles E. Hall debate each year is award- ed the beautiful silver trophy cup and the names of its members inscribed there- on. Besides this distinguished general award, the winning team is presented with a prize of thirty dollars. This year the topic for debate is Resolved that the United States should adopt the basic principle of the N. I. R. A. The Seniorf team consisting of Mulford Nobbs, as captain, Seymour Smith, Gordon Johnson and Bill Wade will undoubtedly present a lively battle to the Junior team, represented by Everett Jones, captain, Wfalter Craig, Samuel Lund- quist and Mike Enserro. The coaches for the teams are Miss Dean and Mr. Wilson for the Juniors and Milton A. Bissel for the Seniors. I 6 6 Memories of H. S. fTune: Believe Me If All Those Endearing Young Charms. Alma Mater, thy name in honor we hold, J. H. S. thou art dear to us allg Swell the chorus of song, let thy praises be told While together school days we recall. The old study hall shrines, the joys of our youth, 'Tis the place where the school spirit 'bides- The spirit that wrings jest from the gravest of truth, And cheers us whatever betides. And still, J. H. S., in the year that shall be, The scenes will crowd memories hour- The class rooms, the Gym, the old willow tree, Ffen the clock that keeps watch in the tower. Thy boys and thy girls, thine today and for aye- Spite of changes old time shall have seen- We,ll stand for the right, for the honor we'll try Of our colors, the Red and the Green. -Milton J. Fletcher Clem of 1868 The class of 1868 was the first to graduate from the building, then called Jamestown Union School and Collegiate Institute, which is now the right hand portion of the structure called Jamestown High School. At than time, the members of the class graduated from various divisions one of which was the Physical Training Department, the first to be established in the United States. There were seventeen members who graduated that year from all depart-- ments: Robert P. Miller, Theodore Z. Root, Clinton B. Winsoir, Daniel H. Post, Wilson M. Day, Luvellian M. Glidden, Horace A. Fox, Louis K. Jones, Lillie P. Wescott, Ida M. Giles, Mary E. Harris, Eva E. Barrett, Addie M. Sprague, Sadie A. Arnold, Frank B. Farnham, Charles W. Mace and Roswell J. Bootey. In 1918, when the class celebrated their fiftieth anniversary, seven mem- bers were living out of the seventeen who graduated, Roswell J. Bootey, Louis K. Jones, Charles'W. Mace, Theodore Z. Root, Clinton B. Winsor, Wilson M. Day and Mrs. Lillie Wescott Carnahan. The sole survivors now are Mrs. Lillie Wfescott Carnahan, and Mr. Clinton B. Winsor. Mr. Winsor served our public school as superintendent of buildings from 1902 until he retired in IQZS. He has long been an outstanding and very beloved citizen of our community. 67 J V x dx mol filo l Y. W X. f Av X ' ' . ' 'Yiffx -- - we . il MN . EE i -Erirmg 1 'fTi.q '- , L 7. 1- .

I. was a notable one.. There were ten members in the English-Scientific course who graduated. Four members of the class are still living in or near Jamestown. Mrs. Cora Sheldon Tew, daughter of the late Porter Sheldon, was the president of the class. Mrs. Coralyn Thayer Taylor, who now resides in Frewsburg, sends greet- ings to the class of '34 and states that fifty-four years have not served to lessen the bond of affection that the members of this early class feel for the old school and its beloved founder, Samuel G. Love. Probably the most distinctive member of this class in the opinion of the alumni of H. S. is Mrs. May Love Gifford. Mrs. Gifford was the daughter of Professor Samuel G. Love. The finest tribute we can pay to her is to note here a few of the reasons why our school and community honour her father's memory. Mr. Love was the organizer of the public school system. He was asked to come here to organize our schools, and he remained to make Jamestown schools notable throughout the state until he retired twenty-five years later. He es- tablished here the first industrial department of education and made physical education practical in the schools. Another interesting member of this distinguished class is Mr. John Ahl- strom, who was the first Swedish man to graduate from the high school. Until March 28 of this year, another notable member of the class of '80 still lived, Miss Rebecca Langford. Miss Langford was a beloved teacher and grade principal, who served the Jamesto-wn schools for more than forty-five years. Looking Backward In looking backward through the decades, isn't it strange how little we remember of what constitute the major activities of school life? For instance, what do I remember of the lessons in Reading, Writing and 'Rithmetic, of my early years? Not a thing. What literary gems that I stro-ve to memorize have a permanent place in my memory? Why, the only ones I recall are Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Mary had a Little Lamb. Yet some things that hap- pened produced an indelible impression. Once I was shut up in the cupboard for whispering, another time I was obliged to sit on the platform for running away from school, and once, most terrible of all, teacher spatted my hand with a ruler for eating hickory nuts in school. I was caught with the goods. These punishments must have been effective for they were not repeated. Came a memorable day in June when attired in my best pink calico and a pigtail down my back, I, together with my classmates, marched up to the building,' to- try our exams, the passing of which would permit us to attend school in the Junior Grammar department. I must have been successful for I next found myself in Mrs. Gaddis's room. She was the first person to call at- tention to the necessity of having my teeth filled. Of the other time spent in 68 this department, I recall chiefly that Clayton Bailey used to be held in teacher's lap to keep him quiet, until Mrs. Gaddis conceived the brilliant idea of having him sit beside me. But Clayton didn't mind that, he grinned his usual cheerful grin and took it for a lark, whereas to me it was cruelty in the extreme. Here, also, began a certain systematic torture, classified as Rhetorical Exercises and continued throughout the entire course. Every Wednesday afternoon, as sure as fate, we had to submit to it. The first week we spoke a piece, the second read an essay, supposed to be original, and thq third we read a criticism on one ofl the essays given the preceding week. The criticisms were chiefly distinguished for their brevity. Then we had a week of blissful rest. It was a continuous per- formance repeated twice each term and we had three terms a yearg therefore it meant eighteen public appearances during the year. It is no wonder that there was no appreciable increase in the school registration for so many years. In the course of time, still wearing my pigtail, I emerged into the Academic department of the J. U. S. and C. I. There were four regular teachers here. Mr. Jenks, principal, Miss Ida Giles, preceptress and Miss Flora Shearman and Miss Crosby, assistant teachers. In addition to these were the special teachers in music, drawing, gymnastics, commercial and penmanship. We also had the rare privil- ege of observing a course of true love running smoothly and terminating at the altar. The principals in this little drama being Mr. Jenks and Miss Florence Sheldon one of his pupils in the Virgil class. Those were the times before everything was free. We were required to pay a tuition fee of two dollars. For each foreign language studied we paid an ad- ditional two dollars and for each diploma two dollars. The young people of those days must have been much more clever than those of the present time, for, with the exception of Algebra which required two terms and foreign languages, the same time as at present, it needed only one third of the year to acquire the necessary knowledge in Physics, Chemistry, Astronomy, Moral Philosophy and o-ther such subjects. Instead of English for four years we had one term in Word Analysis and one term in Rhetoric, but in that short time we learned the principal elements of expression. By what- ever fortunate chance I was impelled to take up the study of Latin, I do 1'1Oit know, but I bless my stars that I did rake it and had for my teacher Miss Flora Shearman to whose thoroughness of instruction has been largely due my in- terest in foreign language study. The other subjects seem to have vanished into the limbo of forgetfullness. The closing of each term had its own special distinction. At the end of the fall term, plays were presented in a very realistic manner. At the close of the winter term contests were held consisting of essays and recitations. In June came graduation. The girls wore black silk dresses and after reading their graduation essay were presented with bouquets by their friends, if they had any. The first girl to show the good sense and daring to go contrary to this custom, was Josephine Corcilius who appeared in a suitable light cotton dress.

You should have seen the gallant array as we marched out on the floor of Institute Hall, the girls wear- ing White dresses with long streamers of ribbon flowing over the right shoulder. Didn't we swing the dumb bells and Indian clubs in a most marvelous man- ner!! I came away the proud possessor of four diplomas, Academic, Normal, Commercial and Physical training. For three I paid two dollars each and the fourth was free. This was my first bargain. No account of our school can be complete without mentioning the most striking personality of all, our Superintendent, Mr. Samuel G. Love. Who that knew him can ever forget the effect he produced on the audience, when the time came for exercises to commence? He would step forward and speak the magic word, Order. The effect was electric, for instantly there was absolute silence throughout the Hall. No repetition was necessary. No one though of dis- regarding that command. The above picture is one of the first classes to graduate in gymnastics, if you know what we mean. Note the gymnasium costumes, designed to give free- dom to the muscles! The instructors were Miss Tousley and Miss Eva Peterson. The class of 1888 had the honor of being the first to graduate from the newly organized J. H. S. 70 l l The Class 0f1886 Class of 1886 was one of the last to graduate from old J. U. S. and C. I. It consisted of Hfteen members, fourteen girls and one boy. Seven students and two instructors are still living. The students are Mrs. Ada Appleyard Swisher, Mrs. Ray Giles Pickard, Miss Lillian G. Dickson, Miss Emily W. Holmes, Miss Etta M. Weaver, Mrs. Jennie Wilson, Mrs. Evelyn B. Jones. The two living in- structors are Miss Flora Shearman and Miss Josephine Corcilius. The teachers in the first row of the picture above from left to right are: Miss Mary Willard, Miss Flora Shearman, Miss Addie Gleason, Mr. Love, Miss Sara Dickinson, Miss Josephine Corcilius and Mr. Rogers. The Clam 0f189O Class Yell-- Ninety, ninety great and mighty, Hoo rah hoo for the Class of Ninety. 'iWhat next? Class flower-white clover. Class color-white Class motto- Never ending, still beginningf' The Class of Ninety had for its president, James Parker Hall, who later became the Dean of Chicago University Law School. Walter L. Tenny was the Class Poet. Marian Gifford was the Cake Maker, maple sugar cake being THE CAKE. The Class of Ninety which was composed of twenty-eight members was the first class to do original things. They were the first to have a yell and they originated the Class Vigil. They were also the first to have a Baccalaurate Ser- vice. This Class was not the first to have a song, but the first to have original 71 music. Grace Forrington Wrote the Class Song and in their zeal to be original, induced Miss Mary Willard to write the music for it. The Class of Ninety was the first to have an originally designed pin. Rings selected from a catalogue had been the previous vogue. The Class was considerably larger than any preceeding class and was the first to have any large proportion go to college. Ninety's Class had the distinction of having three colored people, namely-Gertrude, Della and William Scott. They were the first to be graduated from J. H. S. During the last year, the late Mr. Rogers was made the Superintendent of Schools and Mrs. Rogers took his place in Room Io. Superintendent Rogers said no other class held the same relation to him as did the Class of Ninety. The members Were- James Parker Hall J. Grace Fenton Frederick J.

Farington-Grey Kate Vanderburgh-Ashwell Fifteen of the twenty members of che class of 1897 are pictured above with Prof. Thorpe, doing the town in their private carf, 72 The Claw of 1896 The Class of 1896, Jamestown High School, with forty-one members, was I believe, the largest class up to that date. Although thirty-eight years have passed, and the members of '96 are scattered in all parts of our country, a check shows the remarkable fact that about 90 per cent. are still alive and active, also that a dozen or so are still residents of Jamestown or vicinity. Many have achieved marked success in their various chosen lines of en- deavor. Two members, Ralph W. Dorn and Lyman M. Bush, have survived service in both the Spanish-American and World Wars, thus becoming two time war veterans. Miss Amanda Nelson, thru the years since her graduation, has made an enviable record as a teacher and administrator in the Jamestown City Schools. The members of '96 remain loyal alumni of H. S., cherishing the mem- ory of innumerable incidents of old High School life, and revering the memory of the able teachers of their High School days and of their fellow classmates who have passed beyond. Ralph W. Dorn, President Class of '96, J. H. S. The Clam of 1898 The Class of 1898 numbered thirty persons, twenty girls and ten boys. While small in numbers compared to classes immediately following, '98 as a class like to think they made up in quality what they lacked in quantity. Of the thirty members some eighteen are at present living in and about Jamestown, occupying places as worthy citizens of the community. Several are the fathers or mothers of another generation of J. H. S. graduates. Among the ten young men are to be found today, a noted writer, architect, physician, attorney-at-law, manufacturer, auditor, druggist. Two of the class were mem- bers of the famous football team of '98, having returned to H. S. for post graduate work. Only two members are known to be deceased. The spirit of rivalry between the classes of '98 and '99 was so intense that plans for class parties had to be made in secret, usually at the home of some member. Frequently these parties were interrupted by uninvited guests, which only added to the zest and excitement of the occasion. Eurydice Brown Wellman, '98. The I934 editorial staff of Red and Green wish to pay tribute to Miss Martha May Briggs, a teacher of H. S. from 1893 until 1917. Miss Briggs was a teacher much beloved for her charm, her everready cooperation, her sense of humour and her human understanding. She organized the lagging commercial work into a department and when she left there were seven com- mercial teachers in the department and a variety of subjects taught. She assisted Miss Nelson with the Red and Green when she was a teacher in J. H. S. and when she was asked by the staff of '34 to help them find material from the alumni for this year's book, she responded with the same charming good-will and energy that had made her always so popular in the old days. We thank her for the results. 73 :fr I 'dine irsar:-I-Q E --f r- Q ER5? 25 E i. -' . 8534 -f jaf' ' ' 5.1 .

The above picture was taken in 1907. They are from left to right top row: Miss Harriet Jones, Miss Mildred Falconer, Miss Carrie Aiken, Miss Corrie Aiken, Miss Martha May Briggs: bottom row: Miss Mary Nelson, Miss Calista A. Dreager, Miss Sara Dickinson, Miss Lucy Fish Baker and Miss Edith Rogers. The Clays of 1900 The class of 1900 was organized in April, 1899. From that time until af- ter the class of '99 were graduated, there were no dull moments in school. Class rivalry was very keen. It reminds one of the feeling between older boys and girls and their younger brothers and sisters. For instance, there was the night the wheels were removed from the hay- racks which were to bring '99 home from Bemus Pointg and the night '99 stole all our refreshments, the time the famous Seat Club was organized, and the time '99 was burned in effigy at Busti. Small wonder that the class of 1901 was not allowed to organize until a week or so before we were graduated. We followed the then largest class of J. H. S. and we Were looked upon as a sort of anti-climax. 74 Many of our members have brought honor to J. H. S., however. Cf our thirty-one members, three became honored physicians, one a successful phar- macist with a chain of drug stores, one became an attorney, one is foreman of the Journal Press, one is a teacher in the Phillipines, one is a successful far- mer and the father of three boys, who are all honor students. Of the girls, eight are married, one is a secretary in the Chamber of Commerce, another has been successful in insurance, one is a secretary in Washington, one is the Chautauqua County Clerk and two who were success- ful teachers have been called to their reward. Death has claimed six of our members and the whereabouts of three others is unknown. Not a bad record for the first class of the Century. -Ellen Yates Miller President of 1900 Looking Tifzckzmzffa' to 1902 Not very much fun for youngsters, this looking backward, but oldsters get quite a kick out of it. Those were the good old days, or were they? When Dr. and Mrs. McElhaney came to be our physical directors the girls were delighted. No more just exercising in formation with Indian clubs and wands and dumb bells. No, now girls had a separate ugymn period as well as their own basket ball team. They even donned a swell gym Quit, rightly named, for it made one swell to twice her normal size. You've heard about the calf, a real live calf, that was put one dark night in the little balcony above the front school door. In the morning there he stood with our class colors, representing our youth and inexperience. We were then juniors. I believe our class of 1902 planted the first ivy on what was then called the new buildingf' I think it didn't grow and they planted more but the in- tention was good. Our class only had about thirty or thirty-five members but we all knew each other and had some entertaining times. I remember we had a week end party at Belleview. There was an old hotel that hadn't been used as a hotel for some time. Through Miss Dickinson, one of our class teachers, they let us use it. We left by wagon Friday night, after school and stayed until Saturday night, I believe,--thirty-two years is a long time to remember exact details. We had what seemed to us a wonderful timeg but I imagine this present generation would get a laugh out of the idea of our boating, playing games and hiking in long skirts with brush binding and dust ruffles and great wide hats. I think 1902 was the first or one of the first classes to get out a school annual. Miss Lucy Baker, now Mrs. Miller, another of our teachers, helped us a great deal. We called it, The Videndaf' Having some business ability in the class we made quite a bit of money on it. Besides giving the school a bust, we blew ourselves to an extravagant Vigil. Vigils in those days were something to write home about. They seem to have lost their flavor now. If a rival class 75 I si , Neff fm?

In our case, we buried them and because we were Hin the money, we threw some coins in the grave. QI imagine most of us would dig deep to get them right nowj. We chartered a small yacht and went to Light-house Point, had our din- ner and burial ceremonies, etc., and started home. A fog had arisen and when we thought ourselves well on the way to Jamestown, we discovered we were at Mayville. Our teachers didn't care to risk anymore boating so we managed to crawl back to Light-house Point and spent the night there. As it was a small inn and occupied by other house guests, most of us slept in chairs, on tables or not at all. A rather sleepy crowd arrived at the boatlanding in the still gray dawn of the morning after. Thirty-two years, but still not so different! Girls and boys with books under their arms, some hurrying, some lagging, scornful boys, giggling girls, but not so different from those of long ago. Mrs. G. L. Lockwood The Clam 0f1903 High collars, high shoes, ratty pompadours and sweeping skirts for the girls, Teddy Roosevelt, trust busting and burning ambition for the boys. Ours was the dubious distinction of being one of the smallest classes graduated from J. H. S. in years, the girls incidentally, greatly outnumbered the boys. Whatever we lacked in numbers, however, we made up in enthusiasm and noise, and ours was the class so quietly involved in the calf episode,--a case of moral turpitude that nearly disrupted the school and caused the tem- porary expulsion of two of our most prominent male members. While our roster contains no such celebrities as Judge William Ransom We may point with pride or view with alarm Alexander Spurgeon Carlson, our President, who is now the political boss of Onondaga County, Bonny Blaicdell Dean, the Editor-in-Chief of Vox Scholae, the Senior Annual of IQO3, and the modest writer of this little paragraph, who was associate editor of the 1903 Annual and secretary of the class, but whose real claim to fame is the fact that she happens to be the mother of Robert L. Taylor, a business manager of I93I,S annual and William A. Taylor the Editor-in-Chief of 1933. Thus dear old J. H. S. and its yearly publication are particularly near and dear to her heart. Lena Moses Taylor-f19o3j 76 The Class 0f19o4 It is difficult for members of the Class of 1904 to realize that thirty years have passed since that sultry night in June, when we received our diplomas from Edward J. Green, representing the Board of Education. High school housing was not among the problems confronting the ad- ministration, when we entered H. S. at the turn of the century. The upper study hall was large enough to seat all Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores and Fresh- men. Although our class, with a membership of fifty-six, twenty-eight girls and twenty-eight boys, was the second largest group to be graduated up to that time, historic Institute Hall, soon to fall under the hammers of building wreckers, provided accommodations for our Commencement exercises. The late Dr. Rovillus R. Rogers was Superintendent in our student days. Milton Fletcher, later Superintendent, was entering upon his second year as Principal, when we were advanced from the Preparatory Department in September 1900. George A. Persell, now Superintendent, took charge of the lower study hall the year our class moved upstairs. Ours was the first class to be formally organized with oflicers in the Fresh- man year. Perhaps it was this distinction accorded ,O4 that led to our humilia- tion a few weeks later when the Freshman colors were displayed on an inno- cent calf placed in the balcony over the school entrance. Class rivalry was in- tense in those days. The Class of 1904 gave the name, Red and Greenn to the High School Annual, our immediate predecessors, '02 and ,O3, having chosen the more pre- tentious Videnda and Vox Scholaef' Class social activities of our time differed somewhat from present day customs. In the early nineteen hundreds high school students still lived in the horse and buggy era. There were a few uhorseless carriagesf, but we knew nothing of high powered motor cars. Bobsleds, hayracks, and trolley cars were the vehicles of transportation employed when Seniors and Juniors went out of town for a party at Bemus Point, Ashville or Panama Rocks. The Wright brothers made their first successful airplane flight only a few months before our graduation. Gas was in general use for illuminating private residences and a home lighted by oil lamps was not an uncommon sight. The first motion pic- ture theatre in Jamestown was not opened until after our graduation. We had been out of high school many years before the radio was developed. The 1904 edition of the Red and Green is an impressive reminder of the lapse of time. Not a single teacher of our period is a member of the present high school faculty. Three of our beloved teachers, Miss Mary R. Willard, Miss Carrie E. Aiken and Miss Sarah E. Dickinson, have pasted over to the other side. The faculty of thirty years ago included, in addition to the teachers mentioned, Principal Fletcher, Miss Lucy Fish Baker Q Mrs. Everard P. Millerj, Miss Elsie E. Leet, Carl LaSalle, Roy V. Hill, Miss Harriet L. Jones, Miss Mary J. Nelson, Miss M. May Briggs and Miss Leila A. Bell fMrs. Edmund S. Smithj . Members of the Class of 1904 recall with much pleasure the four years that followed the dawn of the Twentieth Century. All will be happy to join in an expression of grateful appreciation to the teachers of that period for their in- telligent, patient and devoted efforts in our behalf. ,O4 Graduate. 77 M.

The Clem of 1905 The- class of 1905 had the unusual distinction of being two-thirds male. The class of fifty-five was, therefore, run by its thirty-five boys. During the year, Miss Mary J. Nelson presented the play, Howell,s Mouse Trap, to earn money for the class. The cast supposedly contained only one male charac- ter. This masculine class, however, copped up all the parts. Even yet the for'- tunate audience of that time remember Ed Kelley, Clarke West, Bill Maguire, Harry Stern, Clarence Hebron and Oliver Johnson, dressed in bustles and pan- cake hats disporting themselves as timid Victorian maidens afraid of a mouse. A Letter from ez Member of1905 My dear May, I received your card and I have thought and thought of things that hap- pened while I was in school but they were all such personal things, I don't be- lieve they wo-uld be what you would want. As for instance, the day Lulu Part- ridge and I planned a birthday party on Mr. La Salle and had the class bring Limburger Cheese, crackers and beer to class Cand such a smellj and again we went down to his room one real cold winter day and opened all his windows and turned the Kaiser and all his other pictures with their faces to-ward the wall. We were to have a test that day. QBut we didn't have itj . We used to drive that man nearly nuts. He usually gave me V. G. or E. but Ethel Reynolds always got P. So one day Ethel and I went down and changed her grade to E., and when he read the grades that afternoon such a time as he had. When he came to Ethel's he got out another pair of glasses and looked and looked CI can just see himj and finally he said to himself- O no, O no, that is a mistake. And we nearly had a spasm about that time. Another funny thing was the time we had a yacht ride and Mr. Hill was one of our section teachers and coming home he kept going from one end of the boat to the other watching every couple very closely to be sure no petting was going on. I surely could tell lots of funny things about him and many other little incidents, but, I fear they are too personal. I wish I were sitting right now in the old S. H. with Mr. Fletcher keeping an eye on me. I hate to think of the old building coming down. Yours, Mabelle 1908 Takes ez Trolley Ride 'lWhat do we care, So long as we are, Riding on a Trolley Car. Thus ran the words of our old school song. On a lovely May afternoon during our Senior year our solicitous section teachers, Miss Lucy F. Baker, Miss Sara Dickinson and Mr. Floyd Darrow invited the class to be their guests on a trolley ride. It was before the advent of the automobile, the whole town boast- '78 ing only of about a dozen horseless carriages, the forerunners of the natty streamliners of today. So of course we accepted the invitation, dressed in our best new spring suits and frocks, and wearing those little white caps with the '08 numerals thereon. At four o'clock, the open cross seated trolley car was in waiting over by the corner grocery, while we filed out in groups of twos and threes, little aware of what was about to happen. A dire plot had been hatched up by the Junior boys led by Carl Hultquist, Allan Meahan, Bill Wright and Harold Tiffany, to kidnap our Senior class president, Paul B. Camp, jerking him off the car as it started and hiding him away until the party was over. The game nearly suc- ceeded amid the shrieks of the Senior girls. The milling and seething mass of Junior and Senior boys soon filled the long sidewalk leading to the street. Some- how we kept our feet until big Edward Cyrus Underwood with his six feet four of sinew and gristle, with a mighty leap landed on the heads of the pha- lanx, and toppled us all over onto that nice soft grass, green and mushy after the spring rains. Another immediate cause of our headlong precipitation over on the green sward was that knee high iron railing, edging the sidewalk. Over the fence we tripped and sprawled, and our new spring suits, so stylishly tailored at Ted Nelson,s haberdashery, took on the verdant hue of new green grass stain, never to be fully removed. Mr. Darrow shouted, Boys! Boysln But to no avail. From his watch tower over the front door our respected principal, Mr. Fletcher, had observed the be- ginning of the kidnapping, for kids we surely were. Our principal hastened down and when Milton fs commanding voice ordered our goose pile to unpile, we reluctantly obeyed. We found little Paul was still breathing, as he lay next to the bottom of the mass, tightly clutching the waist of halfback Carl Hult- quist, who in the words of Mr. Fletcher, Seemed to be at the bottom of this,'. Again arranging our peg top trousers and pompadours we gathered up our lunch baskets and after a few desultory jerkings of the trolley rope by the Juniors, we started for Falconer. We nursed our bruises, shouted our yells and sang our songs as we sped along at nearly fifteen miles per hour. We retraced our course through the city and then headed for Lakewood. Up by the Celoron switch we disembarked, spread out our lunch amid the daisies and dandelions and partook heartily, especially of our class fruit, the humble olive. Well, those were the days of the good old simple life, when men were boys and women were fair, with neither paint nor permanents, for we all reached home at 8:30 after thanking our section teachers for providing a nice outing. Tire First Senior Play The Class of 1909 was noted for doing things in a Udifferentn way and so no one was much surprised when we decided that we would rather give a Senior play than the time-honored Senior Recitationsn. But we had a hard time con- vincing the Faculty. They did so enjoy the spectacle of a frightened Senior class marching down the center aisle in the old Study Hall and reciting some Classic in a far from confident voice. Cranford was hit upon as being sufficiently moral and respectable for us to present. There was only one objectionable scene-a card game-which the '79 li Vfldsf x if l ,-'f 1 519, x. L 'J .

A distinguished array of antique costumes were literally pressed into our service, all of which were safely returned to their owners after the play except one bonnet string belonging to Miss Dickinson's great-great-grand- mother. That has never been recoveredg a liberal reward is offered for its return. The great moment in the play came when Fred Hall-the only man in the cast, looking like Santa Claus in a Prince Albert coat, bestowed a brotherly kiss upon Ted Root on his return to Cranford after a long and mysterious absence. -Thetis, ,O9. fm! az Coifzcidence In the old days a big black bear stood guard over the stuffed birds and a museum collection in the L of the upper hall. The chemistry classes were pre- sided over by a good natured lady somewhat lax in discipline but not in her physics assignments! The instructor was a thin young man, serious and nervous who never dismissed his class when the gong sounded but waited until he was ready to take his stand by the door which he would open as a signal that the class might file out. One day during the last period in the morning another girl and myself left the chemistry lab and managed to move the stuffed bear from his pedestal down to the threshold of the physic's class room-his nose right against the door which opened inward. From our look out We were rewarded by the surprise it gave the instructor and the class at dismissal time. The giggling class was sent back to their seats while the instructor in consternation paddled down stairs to report to Mr. Fletcher. The janitor came and put the bear in his place and the class was dismissed. On my return to the study hall after lunch, I found a note clapped under the ink well lid on my desk- Come to the office immediatelyu and signed M.M. B. Did my heart jump? We had been so careful. How could anyone have found out who had done it. M.M.B. was in charge of Mr. Fletcher,s ofiice and incidental- ly was my section teacher. I went with fear and trembling but to my surprise there was no reprimand. Miss Briggs said The funniest thing happened this noon and I want you to write it up for the Annualf, Thereupon, she told me the story of the bear. Meekly I said I would try. At the next meeting of the Red and Green staff my contribution-the bear in verse- was discussed. One of the section teachers had entirely cut out sev- eral verses describing the physic-teacher's reactions. She felt that it was undigni- fied and not respectful. . I was editor-in-chief of the annual and felt that the story should go in complete or not at all. I don't remember who won but mo:t likely the section teacher did-but I do remember to this day the funny feeling I had when asked to write up my own prank. -Elizabeth R. Bealer, 1909. 80 The Class 0f1914 We're the class that danced the too much mustard, And we hesitated to and fro. We're the class that were on the spot, To take the hundred acre lot. We're the class that wore the yellow bow. We'1'e the class that said that we should worryu We're the class that wore the Balmaccan, And what do you want for more? Welre the class one nine one four, We're the greatest class of all the land. The Clan of 1916 The Class of '16 was the smallest in four years, numbering eighty-nine embryo world-beaters, eager to be up and at 'em. Its one dignified claim to dis- tinction was that the late Mary R. Willard terminated her long and brilliant teaching career that year at her official ugraduationn. The memory of Miss Wil- lard's rare literary discrimination, and her light touch in kindling an interest in things Shakespearean has clung as a priceless heritage to the students of her time. Even now, I venture, these groups are never exposed to Shakespeare without a thought of the old Avon Club meetings on Saturday mornings, when for years she shared with the maids and matrons of the town, the inspiration of her de- voted years of dramtic study. To the old Avon Club also belongs the idea of the present Players Club. That was back in the days when the newspapers were filled with The Girl I Left Behind Me, pictures, and the rumors of war, as troops mobilized for service on the Mexican border, all of which occurred during commencement week that year. One member of the class, Harold Seeley was compelled to Wear his army khaki to the week's festivities. The class went to its reward that year in the height of fashion, the girls with skirts swirling clear of the floor, like so many summer parasols, clutching bouquets of red roses, the class flower. High,' shoes were in vogue then, folks not stepping out in pumps and low-cutsl' until the calendar definitely guar- anteed balmy weather. And anyway, high shoes were supposed to keep feminine ankles dainty! Besides the superb booting of this decade, the fashion- able tresses were firmly bound-round with a hair-ribbon. During its junior year, this same class of '16 captured the president of '1 5, Morris L. Bowman, known even then as Doc, exchanging his head of hair for a pig-shave and the 1916 numerals brightly and permanently painted thereon. The senior play flower orders were also twisted by some wit in this class to funeral flat pieces, which were handed reverently over the footlights to the giggling starlets of no less a masterpiece of dramatic aft than Our Mutual Friend,', by Charles Dickens.

Do You Remember .9 Do you remember back in IQI6 when the old High School became so crowded that they had to paint lines and arrows on the corridor floors and ap- point traffic officers to see that we followed directions and didn't cut across other lanes of traffic? Getting to and from class Was sort of like doing the Shuttle at 42nd Street between Broadway and the Grand Central. Follow the green line! Do you remember when they told us we would have to sit two or three in a seat and when the Sophomo-res had to come in two shifts, one at 8:00 A. M. and the other at 10:00, and chapel was put off to 1:15 and the Juniors and Seniors weren't allowed to come? Do you remember how the old stairs came down into the middle of the lobby and the steps looked like a tier of saucers, and how they creaked? Did you ever see the old stuffed bear presiding in strange places? Did you ever see General Grant with his face to the wall? Do you remember what hap- pened to the Kaiser's picture that used to hang in Dutchy LaSalle,s room? Did you ever see it in its final resting place? Did you ever hear Milton Fletcher condemn the mischief makers, oh, so gently? Did you ever see a sheep- ish bunch when he got through? Did you know that John Barrett took the cast of Green Stockings for a ride to Frewsburg and almost didn't get them back in time for the performance? Did you ever know who climbed up the flag pole on the old Grammar School building and hung the Senior colors high in the breeze and then greased the pole? Did you ever find out who made the flag? Did you ever see that Service Flag hanging in the Upper Study Hall with If stars representing the missing from the one hundred seventeen boys who had gone to serve their country in the Great War? Did you ever? Well, I did! Ernest D. Leet, 1919. f H. S. Alumni Association As the Alumni Association of Old J. H. S. enters its 66th year with ap- proximately 5,ooo living members, it is difficult to realize that this is the last time the old Gym will resound with singing led by Charlie Wibo1rg or the old grads will participate in the class rivalry manifested in former years when above the din and clatter first one and then another class yell or song would ring out. 1914 was always noted for being an original, peppy class and on one occasion had a daisy chain, their class flower, and on their fifth reunion, a huge birthday cake with lighted candles was carried in for all to admire and envy. 1910, on their tenth reunion, brought their seven youngsters who staged a mock wedding. The catalog of ofhcers and students of the Jamestown Union School and Collegiate Institute Qusually referred to as J. U. S. 85 C. I.J for 1875-76 con- tains the following historical sketch of the Alumni Association: Early in the history of the Institution, it was deemed advisable that some- thing should be done to secure a living, active interest in the welfare of the school, and if possible to strengthen the attachment to the Alma Mater, of 82 those who should complete a course of instruction therein. They would go out from it, to enter upon business and professional careers. Many who remained within the sphere of its influence, would soon be called upon to assist in its management and control. To aid in accomplishing this object, a society was formed, consisting of the graduates of the school, the teachers, and members of the Board of Education. The first steps towards its 0-rganization were taken at the close of the commencement exercises in 1869. During the following year the organization was perfected, and it was named the Alumni Association of the J. U. S. 81 C. I. By the terms of the constitution, the annual election of officers takes place on the seco-nd Tuesday in Aprilf, From 1869-1873 under the auspices of the Alumni As:ociati0n, Anniversary Exercises were held on Thursday evenings each year with a program composed of several musical numbers, an Anniversary Address, a report of an Historian and a Necrologist. On Friday, June 19, 1874, the Hrst so-called Reunion was held at Griffithis Point on Chautauqua Lake where the Alumni and guests repaired via the steamer P. J. Han0ur for dinner at 4:30 P. M. Now the Thursday evening program is cut to the Anniversary Address and the reports of the Historian, Nccrologist and the newly added Poet are given at the Reunion on Friday. Under the able leadership of Superintendent Milton J. Fletcher, the Alumni Reunions were brought to the school. In June, 1907, the banquet was held in the school gymnasium with a record attendance of 200 guests. Prior to this time the Reunion of June 21, 1888, was the only one ever held in the High School building. It was deemed wise to bring the Alumni Association to the school for the problem of transportation was becoming a serious one. The attendance was greatly increased through this innovation. In June, 1908, at the business meeting, a constitution was adopted fthe original 'one having disappearedj providing for the perpetuation of the organi- zation through a board of trustees, one elected each year for a term of three years, the assessment of go cents annual dues to be used to purchase prizes, assist worthy students or for such purposes as the trustees may deem advisableg and for the election of honorary members. During the years 1888-1908 an advisory committee of three persons had been appointed each year by the Super- intendent of Schools to increase the executive committee composed of the elected officers of the Association. Commencing in 1904 three trustees were also elected, while the advisory committee also continued to function for the next four years. By 1926 the High School gymnasium had grown inadequate to accommo- date the large crowds who wished to attend Alumni and it was again decided by the officers and trustees to make a change in policy and the Reunion WaS taken to the State Armory. Seven hundred and ten people were in attendance. The largest Alumni Reunion in the history of the school was the Centen- nialn one in 1927, held in the Hotel Jamestown, when about 900 Alumni at- tended, the 1927 class dining on the mezzanine floor and later coming to the Crystal Ball Room for the program and dancing. At this Reunion a purse of S1200 was presented to Superintendent Milton J. Fletcher for recreation and study by those Alumni numbering 2,743 who who attended the High School during the 28 years Mr. Fletcher was its principal in token of their affection and esteem. 83 as 'Emo I .fl 'lfgap gii if E 4 -, V rl I will, 1 I .J It l L.. il 'IH : ?LTT ici' 142-1g1Qizwpv4'Q.

A central committee has planned and executed the decorations which have been uniform on all the tables. Alumni have sat with their friends instead of by classhes as in former times in the Gym. Formal programs have taken the place of the tofasts and stunts from the 1, 5, '10, 25, and 50 year classes long in vogue. An attempt was made in I93iI to adopt the Dix plan of reunions to our local problem. It was not particularly successful as it tended to keep away Alumni who felt they might no-t be welcome in any but their reunion years so this has been discontinued. It is interesting to note that the Alumni Association has returned to a former custom by holding the Reunion last year on the same day as the com- mencement exercises. The graduating classes of the old J. U. S. 85 C. I. were divided into De- partments consisting of the Literary and Classical, the Normal, the Physical Culture, the Commercial and the Industrial. Let us say that a person graduated in 1886 from the Physical Culture Department. I-Ie might leave school then or continue and in 1887 or 1888 graduate from the Literary and Classical Depart- ment. The Literary and Classical Department was considered the true graduat- ing class. The class of 1868, the first to graduate from the J. U. S. 86 C. I., contained three members who graduated from the Literary and Classical Department as follows: Wilsoin M. Day, Louis K. Jones and Lewellian M. Glidden. The Corn- mercial Department was composed of six members and the Department of Physi- cal Culture was composed of fourteen members. Six members of the Physical Culture Department were members of either the Literary and Classical or the Commercial Departments. The class of 1886, the last to graduate from J. U. S. 81 C. I., was composed of IS members in the Literary and Classical Department. The class of 1887, the Hrst to graduate from the Jamestown High School as it is now known, contained 15 members, also, in the Literary and Classical Department. The Class of I934, the last to graduate from old J. I-I. S. will probably be composed of 325 members. Genevieve E. Fancher, Secretary Alumni Association. 84 D0 You Remember When? -In 1868, the first commercial department was organized by Professor Love with Reuben Kimberly as its head. 2 In 1 869, at the Fourth Annual Exhibition of the Jamestown Union School and Collegiate Institute, a colloquy Time Changesl' was given by the students. In I873, Miss Carrie Aiken started teaching in the Jamestown Public chools at the age of 17. For 42 years, she initiated the boys and girls into the intri- cacies of algebraic equations. Miss Aiken died at her home in 1923. In 1880, the last class of ladies and gentlemen graduated. According to Miss Sarah Dickinson, the students were becoming too rough to be classified longer as such. Maybe some of our older residents remember the fine-looking R. O. T. C. cadets of the I89O,S. The following is a famous remark of Fredrick E. Botsford: Here is one part of this selection which must be done just right. I want all the girls to hold onto mi until the boys let go of their do. In 1894, fifty students graduated, this being the largest class up to that time. -The first Annual was issued in 1901. It was called the Videnda,', whatever that means. ' Bom 60 Years T00 Soon In 1876, the Seniors were required to take Mental Philosophy, Moral Philoso- phy and Astronomy. Judging from the present output of intellect, in 1936 the teachers will think themselves fortunate if they persuade the budding thought to acquire other knowledge of astronomy than a comprehensive study of the movie stars. In 1872, the use of vulgar and profane language, smoking in the streets or other public places, also visiting billiard saloons or playing at billiardsl' were strictly forbidden. We pass this information to the present generation for what it may be worth. In 1871, at the Annual Entertainment of the Lincolnian Association, tableaux were given from Mother Goose. Sixty years later, tableaux are unnecessary. All one needs to do is to watch the passing throng. In 1869, the first Musical Review was given at Institute Hall. Our orchestra and band in rehearsal, occasionally flirt with some of the sour notes let loose then but leave them severely alone in concert. In 1892, 3000 school children paraded in memory of the 400th Anniversary of Columbus' discovery of America. In 1934, 3000 schools children will par- ade to the Junior High Schools in honor of tearing down the old school. In 1909, individual pictures were taken for the first time, causing much heart- burning on the part of the pre-1909ers, who had to be content with showing their charms as part of a group. 4 85 1 vu'f les .,. 4 fix f L -is F5 l is , -In 1901, Marion Fisher was president of the Lyceum showing early indication IE 55515.95 of his well-known forensic abilities. , 5 .3- T' -In 1902, it was said of Louis M.

Harry Stam: How did I know you wanted to swear first? -In 1919, Mr. Corwin said, I need a rest. Whereupon he strolled over to the calendar and nonchalantly took a month off. -In 1920, the Senior Prom specialized in races and peppermint sticks, and the boys and girls indulged in that daring pastime, Oh Jolly Is The Miller. -In 1922, Miss Bergquist's gym class slogan was, Two hops to the right, two 86 to the left, two hops forward, two hops backward,', which seemed quite a lot of hops for a prohibition period.

In 1929, William Beal put on the well-known Spring Dance, The Spirit of Gentle Breezes. -The National Honor Society first came into being in Jamestown High School in I93O.

Wil LYCEUM T2 The Lyceum 4-lj, In May, 1900, an organization of thirty-three members, knowifas ,Fhe Jamestown High School Lyceum was created, largely through the efforts of Principal Milton J. Fletcher and William L. Ransom. In the same year, eight other Western New York schools manifested a similar interest in debating and public speaking, and met at Buffalo to form the Interscholastic Debating League. In September, 1900, the Lyceum began its work in earnest. Its president that year was Marion H. Fisher. Its first interscholastic debate team consisted of Frank Goodwin, Harold Crissey and Ralph Lockwood. This team argued with Dunkirk the formidable question, Resolved that the United States and the several states should establish courts for the compulsory adjustment of disputes arising between employees and private corporations which possess franchises of a public naturef, In February, 1901, an affirmative team consisting of Henri M. Hall, J. Harold Swanson, and Dana B. Hellings was appointed to argue with Lockport on another question of interest at that time. The continuous existence of the Lyceum during the years that followed showed that the young men of the school, as well as the citizens of the com- munity recognized the value of sound intellectual training in the art of expres- sion. In I905, the debaters won the Rush Rhees trophy cup awarded to the most successful school in the Interscholastic Debating League. Although the early years of the Lyceum were not without lulls in interest, the so-und principles upon which the organization was based, its ever-increasing prestige in the school, and the fine type of men it attracted has insured for it over three decades of pro- priety and success. ' This brief history would not be complete without an expression of appre- ciation and gratitude to the men and women who have guided the activities of the Lyceum throughout its existence. T0 Mr. Milton Fletcher primarily, and to Mr. William L. Ransom, Miss Leila A. Bell, Mr. William R. Lingo, Mr. Avery E. Williams, Mr. Robert C. Wilson, and others, the Lyceum owes an ever-increas- ing debt, and the active members of the Lyceum are happy to have this oppor- tunity to express their gratitude. I In September, I933, the familiar announcement, 'Lyceum meeting this noon called an ambitious group of bo-ys to the leadership of the officers elected the preceding June. Within a month, the influx of new members had nearly doubled the membership of che club. Throughout the year we have carried on numerous informal debates, extemporaneous speeches and a course of study in Parliamentary law, that has noticeably increased our argumentative abilities. In March, a Sophomore Lyceum was organized with the following oHicers: Presi- dent, Robert Brillg Vice President, Bret Carlson, Secretary, Jack Bergdahlg Treasurer, Paul O,Brian. The members of the SophomoreVLyceum will be a welcome addition to the parent organization next fall. J. H. S. LYCEUM OFFICERS First Term Second Term President ................ ......,..

Wilso-n, the 1934 debate squad has completed a profitable season in developing a finished debating technique. The school has been increasingly debate conscious this yearg a condition which has been for manyyears the goal of Jamestown debaters. Our several large and appreciative audiences were a natural result of the elimination of ad- mission fees and the awarding of J,s in debating. It is with a feeling of pride that the Lyceum and the school are able to award the school letter in recognition of the work of the debaters. This forward step is one which will do more for debating in J. H. S. than any other one fac- torg and we are certain that the size of the 1935 squad will be adequate proof of this statement. The question discussed in all the 1934 debates was: Resolved that the United States should adopt the essential features of the British system of radio operation and control. Everett Jones, Walter Craig, John Cederquist and John Ecklund upheld the aflirmative side, while Mulford Nobbs, Gordon John- son, James Boerst, and Seymour Smith spoke for the negative. Their worthy opponents included the forensic representatives of Falconer, Lockport, Erie- East, Niagara Falls, Hornell, and Warren. The debaters wish to express their appreciation to the Lyceum for the use of its funds in defraying traveling ex- penses and to the library department for the splendid way in which it served the needs of the squad. The debating movement fogtered in 1900 by Mr. Fletcher has and will continue to have, a powerful influence in the high school. Probably no other extra-curricular activity is of more directly educational value than debating. A large number of the influential men of the community, among them a group of successful attorneys, bear witness to the value of such high school training. With the advent of a new building and a well-organized student body, we can expect increased progress and interest in forensics in Jamestown.

W. C. A. The club was made up entirely of high school girls with meetings held at the high school and at the Y. W. C. A., with the aim of linking the two educational or- ganizations, and giving girls greater opportunities for personal growth. Co- operative effort between the YH, and school began here, with Faculty members serving as advisers to the club, a custom which is still followed today, and which is most valuable to club development. The club grew and prospered as all good things do, and in 1920 the name Girls' Hi-Y was adopted, copied no doubt after their brother organization of the Y. M. C. A. With the adoption of a twin name, came the first joint affair, a party given for members of the Faculty of the High School. At this time, too, the girls had so far advanced in thought, that an innovation in Conferences was held at Jamestown, with the local club acting as hostess for a Vocational Conferencef' for over Ioo girls of Chautauqua County. Since that time the local club has entertained two state-wide High School Girls' Conferences, and several Chautauqua County Conferences. In 1922 the girls attempted their first presentation of a three-act play. Sev- eral members of the Boys' Hi-Y were asked to fill the male roles, and Patty Makes Thinks Hum, the fore-runner of the Annual Mi-Y-Hi-Y plays came into existence. The presented in I923. first joint Girls' and Boys' Hi-Y play, Clarence, was In I92S due to the confusion caused by two clubs being called Hi-Y, the name and became known as the Mi-Y club, the name it girls abandoned the now holds with the purpose of offering to all high school girls, a club where girls may find friends, gain leadership training, broaden their horizons, and follow ideals of Christian living. The outstanding activities of the Mi-Y Club during 1934 were the annual play, An Accu ing Finger, presented at Washington Junior High School and the mid-winter nfefrence held at Oil City. The club year also included many parties and seve al interesting vocational talks. I I I , ,f X THEY ALL DO What is your view of kissing?,' I asked a flapper wise.

The Jamestown Club was organized at the local Y. M. C. A. in February, 1918, by Mr. Alexander Esplin, Boys' Work Secretary at that time. Although there does not appear in the minutes of that club a complete list of charter members, we End that its oihcers were: President, Leon Kofodg Secretary, Archie Parker, Treasurer, Ernest Leet. Other members mentiond in these minutes were Charles E. Hall, LeRoy Brunstrom, Lawrence Davis, Ralph Donovan, Walter Eckberg, Daniel Gurney, Roger Ellis, Clair Culver, Worthy Ingham, Clayton Farm, Berger Lindbeck, Carl Geiser and Abner Hagberg. K Mr. Esplin retained leadership of the club, assisted by Mr. Clarence Burch- ard, until June, 1921, Rev. Andrew Mayer was then secured and he served as the club,s Advisor for the next two years. Following Rev. Mayer, Rev. A. E. Randall served for two years. Then in the Fall of 1925, Mr. Roy A. Wagner came on the staff of the local Y. M. C. A. as Boys, Work Secretary, took charge of the club and is now completing his eighth year as the club's Advisor. The Club meets each week at the Y. M. C. A. and its program of activities includes Bible Study, Devotions, Life Problem Discussions, discussions along general educational lines, speakers on a wide variety of subjects. Then there are a variety of social activities, stag parties, Parents, Nights, joint affairs with the Mi-Y Club, and of course, the annual play in which these two clubs co- operate. Since I926 the Club has printed and presented to the school all the athletic schedules, both for football and basketball, and stands ready to render whatever service it can to the student body.

Each term fifteen per cent of the upper scholastic third of the senior class are chosen by the senior section teachers to be members of the Honor Society. Membership is based on the principles of leadership, scholarship, character and courage. The emblem is a to-rch mounted on a keystone. Meetings are held every two weeks at which times enjoyable programs are presented. The post-graduates nOit wishing to give up their meet- ings have formed an alumni chapter which meets several times during the year. This year they voted to entertain the active Honor Society at a dinner, a custom which is to become an annual event.

Instruction was given in in- strumental and vocal music and diplomas were given at the completion of the course. The Academy placed their students upon graduation as is shown by the statement from their year book of 1857-58: The demand for teachers of music is usually such at this academy that all well qualified to teach can be fur- nished with schoolsf' When the Academy moved into their new headquarters, the central part of the present building, and became' the Jamestown Union School and Collegiate Institute, music still held an important place in the school program. For many years there were two divisions in the department-the instrumental and vocal. Instruction was givenfxon the piano, melodeon, and guitar. The keen interest in the music department at this time and for many years to come was, no doubt, due to the influence of the Superintendent of Schools, Mr. Samuel G. Love and his wife, Mrs. Louise M. Love, who for nineteen years was the head of both departments. Mrs. Love had several assistants during those years. Among them were Mrs. Abbie Breed and Miss Addie Burgess. For five Years, 1872-1877, Miss Emma Dewhurst was assistant and in the beginning of the year of 1877, Miss Corrie S. Jeffords became assistant in the instrumental department, and Miss Isabel Harrington, who has been, and still is deeply interested in the music of Jamestown, took charge o-f the Vocal Department. Later Mrs. Love Was assisted at different times by Miss Emily Crane, Miss Anna Crosby, Miss Dewhurst, Miss Jessie Starr and by her own daughter, Miss May Love, now Mrs. William Gifford, who is still actively interezted in music circles of Jamestown. After Mrs. Love resigned, Mrs. Corrie Jeffords Bradshaw and Miss Lizzie Thomas of the vocal department worked together for seven years and at differ- ent times during the next few years, Miss Evah Jones, Miss Stella Bligh, Miss Minnie Hegeman, Edward Clarke, and Miss Flora Shearman were members of the department. Miss Shearman worked untiringly to build up the splendid music library given the department just about five years ago by the Mozart Club. To thousands of men and women in Jamestown, the thought of music in the schools is linked with the name of Frederick E. Bottsford, who for twenty- six years went from school to school and supervised grade school music, taught the chorus in the high school and directed the assembly singing. For twenty years he carried this strenuous work on alone. In the high school he taught large classes in singing. At different times he conducted a chorus, and healso organ- ized a mandolin club. These two organizations gave several concerts in Insti- tute Hall. Mr. Bottsford also organized the high school orchestra. This was, of course, just a very small organization and although they did not appear in con- cert, they played occasionally at the school assemblies. And speaking of assem- blies-how many students of that day will ever think of singing in assembly without being reminded of the two songs that reigned as favorites for so many years: The Bobolinkv and The Capital Ship for an Ocean Tripf' In the Fall of ,I9I7, Mr. Bottsford was given an assistant, Miss Ruth Ford, Cnow Mrs. Alfred C. Davisj . As Mr. Bottsford enjoyed best working with the 99 .ae-f' f 5- -' 2 qi 'Ji ' . ?-T' .q - -r Y , 1 , Q. . Gx, - I lf?

I In the Fall of 192o, Ebba H. Goranson became instructor of High School music, taking charge of the Freshman and Sophomore music classes which Were held first in the Study Halls and later in Institute Hall. During this year a girls' glee club was organized. This organization was the beginning of the choral work in the department. The boys' glee club was organized the follow- ing year and for several years these groups appeared as separate clubs and as a mixed chorus at assemblies and concerts. During the school year 1922-23 Mr. Bottsford passed away. Many lives had been enriched through his service and to show their appreciation, the Parent- Teachers' Association and the Teachers' Association raised money for a memorial to him. Each year since, the Bottsford Memorial Contest has been held. In 1923, Arthur R. Goranson became instructor in the vocal work. In 1924 Miss Goranson was appointed Supervisor of Music in the city, and director of the chorus and orchestra in the high school. Mr. Goranson was appointed as director of bands. During this year the instrumental class work was begun on a very small scale and from then on the work has grown steadily. The band was organized with seventeen members and there were I2 members in the orchestra that year. In 1928, Miss Catherine Rooney became instructor of theory and the treble cleff choir, and in 1929 Miss Gertrude Fuller took her place and is still a member of the department. The orchestra, band, and glee clubs Qwhich later became a cappella choirj, have been very active. They have always taken part in the sectional contests and festivals at Fredonia, and the orchestra and band have also entered the state contests at Syracuse several times where they have always received first or second place in the state. The band also attended the national contest at Flint in 1930. Several members of these groups have been state champions and Harold Gustaf- son was national champion. The band was invited to play for the State Con- vocation at Albany in November, 1932, and appeared there in their new uni- forms for the irst time. These organizations have grown so that now there are about zoo students in the choral work, 70 in the orchestra, and 88 in'the band.

M. C. A., for the purpose of accommodating a larger number of sophomore boys in the Hi-Y movement. This club is not an organic part of the Hi-Y, but was organized with the co-operation of the Hi-Y Club. Its purpose is to enlist as many sophomore boys as possible in a movement for the promotion of clean living and high standards. ' The club has met each week during the school year since its organization. The program is varied, including educational and entertaining speakers, book reviews, discussions on life problems and social meetings.

It, however, came to be only a poor imitation of the Lyceum and the girls had lost interest in it. When Miss Freck came to the high school in the fall of 1918, she revived it and changed it to a dramatic club. In the fall of 1919, Miss Swensson, the new expression teacher at that time, took over its direction and it soon became a flourishing and popular dramatic club, including both boys and girls in its membership. After Miss Swensson resigned the successive faculty leaders of the club were Miss Rogers, Miss Fraser and Mr. Wilson. The crowded registration and platoon system has enforced a Sophomore branch of the Pretenders for the past two years. Two plays were given this year: one for undergraduates and one for post graduates. The King Rides Byn was given in November at Lincoln Junior High with a clever, talented cast including Roger Cummings, Nadine Cum- mings, Kathryn Kettle, Allan Hagstrom, Dorothy Hake, Isabelle Rushworth, James Larson, Vincent Anderberg, Michael Enserro, Dorothy Dickson, Rodger Gustafson, Doris Havens. The Passing of the Third Floor Back was given. It was a triumphant achievement for a student cast to present so satisfyingly, a subtle, religious play such as this one. It proved the maturing, histrionic ability of the club members and ability and talented direction of Mr. Wilson. The cast included Florilyn Clarke, Charles Garlock, Ernest Jones, Emmett Rapp, Seymour Smith, Janet Morningstar, Wilson Myers, Raymond Hughes, Dorothy Sklarsky, Beverly Belknap, Joyce Randall.

Jamestown High School's first football team was formed in I 8 96 by a group of students under the leadership of Clarence Wilcox who was a pupil in the school at that time. At this time the school authorities had made no provision for football so the team practiced at the cricket grounds, the present site of the Gurney Ball Bearing Company. Although no locker rooms were available, the school allowed them to dress in a small room in the cellar. The team could not obtain regular games with other high schools, so they played small colleges and professional teams of this region. They had no coaches such as We have today, but were guided by the older and better players. As the years went on and the boys of the original group graduated new men took their places. Each year one or two players from previous teams would coach the squad and help arrange games for them. A few years after the first team was formed, Mr. Arthur Winsor, a local attorney at that time, offered his services as coach for the squad. From that time on the schoo-l has recognized football as a school activity. Old timers will re- member such prominent players as Lyle Himebaugh, Captain in I 8985 Al. Curtis, Captain in 18965 Pete Partridge, Captain in 19025 Louie Collins, Cyn Jones, Captain 1913. The most famous team in the history of the school was the squad of '98 who went through an eight game schedule scoring 350 points against nothing for their opponents. RECORD FOR THE SEASON OF ,98 J.

Philip Albano Managers Harold Johnson, Roger Gustafson Although this year's team was not as victorious as many of Coach Moon's former football teams have been, they showed excellent fighting spirit and good sportsmanship throughout the whole season. ' The team opened its schedule losing a scrappy CO'1'1tCSt to a strong Erie East High team, a close game, the score being 6-0. 'Tis to be remembered that in '32 this same school trounced Jamestown 58-7. In their first home game the team lost to Canisius College freshmen, 1 3-7. It was another close one and Jamestown outplayed the strong college team throughout the whole contest. The next game was a hard fought battle with Dunkirk High School. Neith- er team succeeded in placing the pigskin over their opponent's goal, the final score being o-o. The next two contests against North Tonawanda and Olean were also close. Although Jamestown put up a stubborn defense against these two opponents they were defeated by the sco-res of 6-o and 7-0 respectively. Jamestown gained back their lost prestige by crushing the co-nhdent Warren High, their traditional rivals. The H. S. team showed marked ability during the whole game which met with the enthusiastic approval of the large crowd. Every player did his share toward handing Warren the overwhelming defeat of 26-o! The closing game on the schedule was a muddy conflict with the strong Lackawanna High School team. The score was 6-6. At the end of the season Bob Shearman was elected captain for the coming year and we all have hope for the team under his leadership. RECORD FOR THE SEASON J. H.

The object of the club is to promote in school a spirit of fair play and good sportsmanship, to foster a spirit of supporting teams at all times, to see that the Jn is worn only by those who have earned the privilege. Through its twelve years of existence the club has been highly successful in living up to the standard set by the charter members. It has gro-wn to be a strong and closely united organization and one that every boy in school should be proud to be a member of. This year the club has sponsored bo-th a benefit dance and a banquet for the football team. The dance was held in the New Casino for the purpose of raising mo-ney to help pay the expenses of players hurt this fall. This year's banquet for the football team was one of the most successful ever given. The JU club in collaboration with the Kiwanis Club of Jamestown were able to bring Harry Kipke, University of Michigan football coach, here to speak at the dinner. He gave a very interesting talk and showed some Hne motion pictures of his championship team in action. We are sure that MJ club will carry on their loyal spirit and fine sportsmanship to the new school. Vmfsigf Spam Coaches Denton Moon Allen F. Ayers This year's teams may not have been as colorful as many of the Moon coached teams in the past but it certainly waSn't due to their lack of spirit. Especially in football the boys went into every game with a fighting determina- tion to win, but during the whole season, with the exception of one or two games the breaks seemed to be against them. Both Coach Moon and his able assistant, Allan F. Ayers, did their utmost to produce successful combinations. Coach Ayers' reserve teams did themselves proud. His basketball team going through a hard 16 game schedule losing but one contest. Consequently, we feel that with the fine material that is assured, next year's teams will be ex- cellent ones. 113 si Ygiam'-5 l ,....f 1 gli ml: J . , .I wk ' ,Nj m. if .X . , h, if KH gg-xg, :Lies F Z s .5- l.T'l'f4Kl-1Q,?fgh'nf-4'Q- ' Basketball Manager ,,, ,, ,....w,.. ,. .....K, Roy Malm Q The H. S. basketball team of the '33-,34 season won ten games and lost nine. Jamestown was entered in the Southern Lakeshore League and won games from Falconer, Westield, Lakewood, Olean, Warren and Mayville. They failed to cop the League title, however, losing in the final play-off to a fighting Fal- coner team. V At the end of the regular season, Jamestown was given an invitation to play in the annual tournament sponsored by Falconer. Coach Moon entered the team with enthusiasm and they responded by winning three games in a row to capture first honors. Gust Jones, one of the season's outstanding players, was elected to the all tournament team after the play-off was finished. The following men made letters in basketball during this past season: Holger Anderson, Philip Albano, Sam Carmen, Gunnard Lundgring Gust Jones, Sebastian Calannio and Roy Malm, the capable manager of the squad. DON,T READ THIS! Getting out an annual is no joke. If we print jokes, they say we are too silly, If we don't they say we are too serious, If we publish news, they say we're too dry, If we publish material from other annuals we're too lazy to write our own, If we print ads, there is nothing else in the annual. If we don,t we wouldn't have any annual. Like as not some fellow will say we swiped this from another paper. And we did. 114 Meal Service Fountain Service ' fovm-ffANvwlcH BAILEY BUILDING PINE AT FOURTH When the day arrives that you are to choose your Furniture for the HOME OF YOUR DREAMS ---- It is wise to consider- First: the Reliability of the Store.
