Would I could duly praise you, that each deed Your foes might honor, and your friends might read. Parksie was an ideal classmate: an athlete, a good scholar, a willing worker, and a line class president. We feel sorry for the future seniors that we take the last Parksie away with us. K. H. S. will always envy his scholastic and athletic attainments. DORRIS ANNE DARLING DiddIe Vice President 4: Orchestra l, 2, 3. 4: Play 3, 4: Year Book 4. 1 cannot live unless I love and am loved. Almost any day in summer we could find Dor- ris at Wheelock Park. Nothing unusual about that as she always was fond of Parks and aided one well in governing our Senior Class. We realize that her exceptional ability with langf uages has influenced her choice of a career. ROBERT GAY CALEF Bob 'Treasurer 4: Minstrel Chorus 3, 4: Play l, 2, 4: Year Book 4: Enterprise 3, 4. To business that we love, we rise betimes, And go to it Bob is bank that he abilitiesl as gundif' In with delight. such a good business man in the was elected Cthat he might use these business manager of the Salmaf Cappy Ricks he was the best man- ager in the shipping business, and also the best man for his part. ALICE KATHRYN O'BRIEN AI Secretary 4 We are young and we are friends of time. Al wasn't satisfied with one Bob, so she secured a boyish bob. Now, although she rides in a Ford, it is easy to see she has a preference for a Franklin. We hope she will be as competent a nurse as she has been an interesting classmate. l.UClEN B. ALDRICH Lu Football 2, 3: Hockey 2, 3, 4: Minstrel Chorus 2 Faster than his tongue did make offense, his eye did heal it up. Lu is a dependable player on the hockey team and surely deserves his He realized his ambition when he helped make the K. H. S. hockey team a success, We hope all his ambi- tions are realized as well as this one has been. l5l.ORliNClE .lliNNlli ALIBIZR Ho Year Book Z. 3, -lg Enterprise -ls Minstrel Chor, us 3. 4: Basketball 4: Squad Z, 3: Honor Essay 4 She glides iinfelt into their secret hearts. Florence is one of the hardest workers in the class. It is a worthy ambition to graduate from college. hut we know she will overcome all bar' tiers and go ahead until she teaches the highest peak of possible attainment. ANNIE CREHAN AMADON Ann llom-sltf shines with tlfvtll inluitnluge there. Annie is a member of the commercial depart- ment and she surely will make a good stenogra- pher, She can glide along on the ice and also on the shorthand pad, as Mr. Dresser dictates. Here's success to you, Annie. MlI,lJRliD lSABlil,l.li ANCilIiR Milly Delr't1hlfuI laskf lo rear the lem!'i'r thought To leach the young idea how lo grow. If Mildred keeps order as well in her English classes as she did in the lihrary, the sixth period. she will surely make a successful tea'her, XVe had heard that auburn hair was the siqn of a temper. but she has certainly disproved the state' ment. HARRY W. ARNOLD kVeImrm'. thou pleasing slumlmer: Atuhile embrace me in thy leaden arms. Anil charm my careful tho'ts. Harry is both a good grocer and a witty class- mate, Sleeping is his hobby and he sometimes brings it to school with him. He always manages through some undiscovered miracle, to answer the questions asked him. ZIELMA ARVll.l.A BALLOU Kel He seems ro near, and ye! so fur. Zel surely can dance. It is a fortunate coin- cidence she doesn't live in a No parking zone as she has so many visitors. An all around sport. a pleasant classmate. and a sincere friend. we dislike to lose the intimacy of her compan- ionship, but Normal School isn't far away and we prophesy a wonderful future for her as a Home Economics teacher, CHARLES DALE BARDEN, JR. Bundy My Ioue for Nature and my love for her, Of different ages, like twin-sisters grew. Bardie is fond of hunting on our beautiful New Hampshire hills, especially for deers Cdearsl . We realize that his ambition will soon be fulfilled and we wish you and the Dear the best of luck. EVELYN MAY BARTON EUy lf you be lover of instruction, you will be well instructed. Evy is a very studious girl. Her ambition is to be a teacher and we are sure she will succeed. We are glad, Evelyn, that you didn't give in to the bobbed hair because long hair is so becoming to you. MABEI. ELIZABETH BEERS Shrimp Basketball squad l, Z, 3: Minstrel 3, 4: Hock- ey lz Track: Hockey 4 O Friend! O best of friends! Thy absence more Then the impending night darhens the landscape o'erl Mabel's ambitions are to grow tall and be a nurse. As for growing tall, Mabel. we like you just as you are, and as for being a nurse, we know that with your sweet smile you will always be in great demand. EDITH ELLA BEMIS Bump Blushing is the colour of virtue. We always wondered whether there were an ocean in Fitzwilliam as Bump always has plenty of waves with her. Bump always pays attention in classes as she wishes to obtain all the knowledge she can for her future teaching profession. PRENTICE SMITH BEMIS Bennie Football 1, 2, 3, 4 Men's talents grow more bold and confident The further they're beyond their just extent. Bennie is one of the strong, husky, athletic Bemis's from Chesham. His name has appeared on the All New Hampshire State football team for many a year! His motto is They shall not pass. FRANCES L. BEVERSTOCK Beuy Orchestra 3, 4: Minstrel Show 2, 3, 4: Enter- prise 4: Year Book 4: Chemistry Book Prize 31 Class Basketball 2, 3. Claims strike the sight, but merit wins the soul. The only time Bevy is at the bottom is when she is playing the bass part on her saxa- phone. We all knew her as a fine scholar and a willing worker for anything for K. H. S. CHRISTINE A. BLAKE Chris Minstrel Chorus 2, 3 With mirth and melody and love 1 reign. Chris was one of the most popular girls in the K. H. S. She was always one of the flrst to introduce a new fad. We know that her ability to teach others will bring her happiness and wc envy the lucky pupils, who may in the future call her Teacher ESTHER MARIA BOYDEN Kitty To raise the thought and touch the heart, bc thine! Esther is very quiet in school, but in Camp in summer, oh, my! We hope she won't for- get K. H. S. after she has become a successful teacher. JOSEPH RICHARD BRUCE Dick A certain portion of the human race Has certainly a taste for being uamped. Dick was quiet in High School, but he made quite a sensation with the Normal ladies. Bruce enjoyed giving long oratorical speeches in history, but we found it very profitable to listen attentively. FERNE INEZ BUNTLIN A good companion and as firm a friend. Ferne and Arlene are always together, and they always seem to be having a good time. Snowshoeing certainly is healthy exercise and we commend their choice of a hobby. Here's suc- cess to you. Ferne! FRANK B. BUSHEY Orchestra l, 2. 3. 4. Year Book 2 We're born a restless needy crew: Show me a happier man than you. Bushey is the one boy who will not give up his horse -for any flivver. His artistic ability draws many a laugh. fespecially in historyl. He also draws a line bow as befits a concert mas- ltlr, MILDRED ETTA BUSHEY i'Milly Minstrel Chorus 4 These delights, if thou canst give, Mirlh, with thee I mean to live. Milly is a Hello girl both in school and out. She surely knows how to giggle and we hope she also teaches her patients how to be happy. You'd better not chew gum Milly while attending patients or someone may get stuck on you. VIVIAN ORRIE BUSWEl-l. Bud Be u good sweet maid, and let who will he clever. Buds skating ability must have helped her to glide through classes. We know she will be a successful stenographer because she is such a will- ing worker and pleasant companlon. MARY ELIZABETH CARPENTER Sis Minstrel Chorus l. 2, 3. 4: Year Book 4: Basketball l. Z, 3 Is thy name Mary, maiden fair? Such should, methinlzs, its music be: The sweetest name that mortals bear, Were best behtting thee. Mary's greatest problem is to find a suitable college. We are glad that she decided upon Keene High School as her prep, as she was a delightful classmate and jolly sport. ARLENE KATHERINE CARROLL The warmth of genial courtesy The calm of self reliance. Arlene always told us she much preferred win- ter to summer and of course we all knew this is true because of her great ability in mastering the art of snowshoeing. She certainly could not have found a better way to spend her leisure moments. MARION C. HOLDEN Chubby Chubby entered our class our Senior year, so we didn't get very well acquainted with her. Perhaps someday Keene High will know her better as an instructor of Physical Education, which she desires to be. BERTRAM CLUKAY. Bert Football l. 2: Baseball 3: Hockey 2 He serues all who dares be true. Bert is very fond of athletics, but he wants to be a doctor. Doctors certainly are necessary and busy men, but we bet he'll get there on time if he uses his old K. H. S. speed. CHARLO'l l'E JANE COLBY Minstrel Chorus 1. 2, 3, 4 A peace above all earthly dignilies, A still and quiet conscience. Charlotte, one of Keene High's most energetic workers, has the delightful hobby of concocting appetizing viands to delight the human palates. Her success in this has caused the desire to be a Home Economics Teacher. It won't be long before Keene parents will find Charlotte's name on thc faculty list for K, H. S. WILLIAM CONNOR Bill Basketball 3, 4. 5: Football l. 2, 3. 4: Baseball 3, 5: Hockey 3, 4. 5: Track 3, 4, 5 1 um not in the roll of common men We wonder whether Bill originated the say- ing Gentlemen prefer blondes. Bill, how many pairs of shoes did you wear out in the assembly hall walking up for K's? We know that, as a coach, you will realize all possible success because of your interest in sports. DONALD G. DAVIS Red Orchestra 2, 3 A fearful battle rendered you in music Red is our lucky fisherman, but though he always is so successful in producing things with water, he never can make his fliver run without gasoline. We're hoping that someday he will find his ideal Lizzie. ELDORA MABEL DAVIS Bluebird She that hath knowledge spareth her words. Bluebird is one of our winter sport enthusi- asts. Because of her great skill as a seamstress, we hope her worthy ambition to become a de- signer and maker of clothing will soon be real- ized. HENRY A. DAVIS There is great ability in knowing how to con- ceal one's ability. Henry always sticks to everything he starts. Perhaps that is because his hobby is stamp col- lecting. He will certainly make good in any line of work he chooses. MARION M. DAVIS Bunnie Minstrel Chorus 2, 3. 4 What will thou not, woman, gentle woman, dare? Bunnie wants to be a dietition and of course we wish her the best success ever, but are rather anxious to know where she is going to start working. We wonder if she will advise dancing as a pleasant remedy for plumpness. JOHN REGINALD DOAK Reggie Track 4: Orchestra 3 That no woman shall come within a mile of my court. Reggie is the pianist during the freshman music period and he always manages to make the piano ring out over the lusty freshman voices. When not banging on the piano, he is bang- ing the ball over the tennis court. Reggie al- ways chooses good opponents. FRANCIS R. DONOVAN Burly Basketball 3, 4, 5: Football l, 2, 3, 4' Baseball 4, 5: Track 4, 5: Minstrel Chorus 2. 3 Go, call a coach, and let a coach be call'rI Burly believes variety is the spice of life, not only in girls, but in sports. His K's cer- tainly would make a fine exhibition. He has twelve rewards for Keen Cel sportsmanship. We hope that soon a Burly coach will be present at a K. H. S.-Manchester game and help us cheer for victorious Keene. HERBERT HOWELL EAMES Eamsie Football Squad l. 2, 3: Baseball Squad lc Minstrel Show 3: Hockey Class Team 1 What, sigh for the tooth ache? We would like to know whether Howell re- members his outside dates as well as his history dates. His inseparable companionship with Lu was indeed wonderful, and we hope it will not be broken by Graduation. We are afraid that his excellent oratory will force many reluctant people to lose their teeth when his ambition is realized. ELIZABETH FAIRBANKS Liz Minstrel Show Chorus 2, 3, 4 A girl to know and a girl worth while.. As a tennis player Liz is surely a winner. She has tinally decided to become a nurse. This decision may have depended somewhat on her great friendship for ALMA BRUNA FARINOLI Al The splendor of Silence, of snow-jeweled hills and of ice. Al is right at home in Mother Nature's great outdoor playground and enjoys all outdoor sports. We do hope she can continue in school. for we know she'll be a success. Though Al didn't care for ancient history, she was always proud to tell about her home town, Fitzwilliam. CLARENCE W. FARR Valedictorian 4: Treasurer 2: Orchestra 2, 3, 4: Enterprise 1. 2, 3, 4: Harvard Book Prize 3 This proverb flashes through my head, The many fail, the one succeeds. To you. Clarence, we extend the most sincere congratulations for your honor as Valedictorian and the best wishes for your future work. You are .1 most enthusiastic and enjoyable classmate and we cherish the memory of your mighty deeds. EDMUND F. FLEMING Ed Basketball 4: Football 2, 3, 4: Hockey 2, 4: Baseball 3 The -chief art of learnina is to attempt but ltttle at a time. Ed led our hockey team through an unde- feated season, and we surely are glad he didn't decide to graduate before. Many times will the Keene High Hockey fans sigh and think of the good old days when we drove the puck across the ice amidst the shouts of his cheering school- mates. FLORENCE NELLIE FULLER FIossie To live long, it is necessary to live slowly. If Keene High included walking races among its sports, Flossie would be runner-up for the championship. We hope she will be successful as a teacher. RICHARD L. GAY ' Dick Football 2, 3: Track 2. 3: Minstrel Show 2, 3 Great men are always wise. Dick loved to lose himself among his books and read. but his duties as a member of many school clubs required a great deal of his time. We are sorry debating did not become a recog- nized factor in school because we are sure Dick would have been a stronger member of the team, as he has proven his ability. ELEANOR GLEASON Sally Give me back my youth. Sally came up from Dublin every morn- ing in her six, but she soon became a popular Keen feb girl. If Dublin possessed a movie, we wonder whether she would be in Keene in the evening. Lucky will be the college that includes Sally among its pupils. JOHN RIPLEY GLEASON Johnny Hockey 4 He served with glory and admired success A sailing we will go and certainly sailor Johnny will be able to pick out a fair day if he's working in the U. S. Weather Bureau. There aren't any stormy days for the Happy, so let's smile, Johnny. DORIS LOUISE GORGES 1 A foot more light, a step more true, N'er from the heath-flower dash'd the dew. Doris is a very good pal to Margaret. She likes to stay at home listening to the radio. When the radio stations start broadcasting typewriting exercises, Doris will be a faithful listener as she enjoys typing so much. LAURA JENNIE GREENE Greenie A good reputation is more valuable than money. Greenie always did like music, so of course she has chosen a musical profession. Each evening we suppose, after a weary day at teach- ing pupils Grieg and Beethoven, she will escape to sway to the ever powerful rhythm of Irving Berlin. JOHN E. GURNSEY Jack Minstrel 2, 3, 4 And with sweet ladies. With my ugords and looks. Jack should have a taxi license because hc surely got paid in victories after taking the players out to the held. He became very well acquainted with all the well-known Lanes around Keene. LOUIS A. HALL Minstrel Chorus 2, 3, 4: Year Book 3, 4: Play 4 He is the greatest artist then, Whether of pencil or of pen. To Louis. we are indebted for the drawings and humor in this book. We have honored him as class cartoonist, and we feel sure the world will recognize his talent. May 'he be successful, and bring fame to himself and to Keene High School. WALTER SCRIPTURE HALL Mutt Football 4: Track 3: Cheerleader M. A. 2, 3 Life is short and thou art long. Mutt is a good sport, especially when he leads our lusty voices into cheers. One good thing about his cheer leading is that everyone can see him. We dedicate his Ford to the Hall of Fame. for carrying so many athletes. VERA LOUISE I-IAMBLET Of softest manner, unaffected mind: Lover of peace, a friend of human kind. Vera walks to school every morning fonly about three milesj and she is always here before many who have to go only across the street. Per- haps her ability to keep history dates in her mind helps her to remember the time of day. MARIAN DORIS HARVEY Mary Ann She laugh! the child lo read, and taught so well, That she herself, by leaching, Iearn'd to spell. Mary Ann never quite outgrew her childish delight in skiing. Do you suppose. Mary Ann, you will be able to escape the bonds of profes- sorship long enough to ski after you become a martyr to the cause of educating young Ameri- cans? MARIAN NELLIE HARVEY Mary Ann Silence is golden. Mary Ann really never said much, but did enjoy dancing a great deal. We're sure her pu- pils will appreciate the wisdom which she ac- quired from listening so attentively in classes. HELEN FRANCES HAYES Hockey 4 Thy presence sweet, Still through long years of uirgil I may share. Helen didn't come out for any sport in school until her senior year and then she showed us she could play hockey. Nursing is a wonderful pro- fession, and we're going to envy her lucky pa- tients. MARGARET PATRICIA HENRY Par Baseball 3, 4 Good nature and good sense must ever join. Pat always keeps us in the best of spirits with her jolly humor. Perhaps this is because she never has to get up early to curl her hair. Pat. you surely have learned Dr. Coue's motto, Keep smiling and with it bring cheer to your pa- ments. CLIFTON N. HILLS HilIey ln small proportion we just beauties see, And in short measures, life may perfect be. Hilley may be small, but he always seems happy. Being a mechanical engineer is a high position for such a short lad, but though the road may be hilly we are certain his ability with engines will do much in helping him ascend the ladder of success. ROGER WHITCOMB HUNT Earth holds no other like to thee, Or if it doth, in vain for me. Roger is our most enthusiastic radio fan. He has become so interested in working with electric- al contrivances that he has linally decided to make this his life's work. K. H. S. will certainly be proud of him as an electrical engineer. VIRGINIA ANNETTE IDE Ginnie Never found the companion that was so com- panionable as soIitude. Ginnie's delight is to tramp through the woods. and to forget school in a careful, raptur- ous survey of God's great outdoors. She always returns enthusiastic, and anxious to recommend this remedy for tired minds and cramped fingers. ANNIE MILLICENT JOHNSON Oh ye, who teach the ingenious youth of na- tions Annie, everyone knows that reading helps one to be a teacher. and we know it will help you to be a winner. Westmoreland must be a very de- lightful place when you're at home. We're cer- tainly proud to have had you in our class. CHARLOTTE JONES Charlie How poor are they, that have not patience! What wound did ever heal, but by degrees? Charlie is another girl allured by the odor of ether. The colleges will get very jealous of the numbers of girls lost to the hospitals, but sickness surely will become a pleasant pastime when one may be cared for by such nurses as Charlie. RUTH ELAINE JONES Jonesie Minstrel Chorus 1, 2, 3, 4 She watches him as a cat would a mouse. Jonesie is never fond of walking, yet she seems to be fond of a certain Lane. Ruth cer- tainly is the life of the school parties and she never fails us when we want help. We know she will more than get through college, and make Keene High very proud to have her as an alumna. NELLIE KINGSBURY 'iBobby They laugh that win. Bobby will certainly have to give up eating if she ever hopes to be a nurse. We just bet she'll swipe doughnuts from her patients trays to appease the gnawing in her stomach. Never fear. Bobby, your patients won't mind if you only smile at them. HARRY LICHMAN Hynee Basketball Squad 3, 4: Football Squad 2. 3 He wa: a good man, and a just. Hynee's one great hobby is athletics and he certainly worked hard for K. H. S. Hynee has shown a line school spirit and it would have been impossible for us to get along without him. PIA MAGNIANI Pele The power of lhoughl-the magic of the mind! Pete is a jolly, fine girl and we're very glad to know she wants to go to school some more. Even though she hasn't decided where she wants to go, we joyfully wish her success. Pete we are glad Fitzwilliam has no high school for the simple reason, if it had. we would have not seen your smiling face each day. HAZEL MAKIN By her life alone, Gracious and sweet, the way was shown. Hazel was a quiet girl. a sincere and willing worker. She was one of our earnest typists. Her choice of stenography as a life work is certainly well made and we recognize in her a successful stenographer. FLORA MARY MARCOUX Honor lies in honest toil. Although Flora didn't enter school until her junior year, we soon recognized her superior ability as a typist. You are bound to do well in your future work. NELSON W. MARTIN Nel Football 2, 3, 4: Hockey 3, 4 Medicine is to be praised when it is in the hands of a physician that is learned, grave, wise, stayed and of experience. Nel will make a wonderful doctor, for we know he's a good fighter. This is shown by his wonderful work for us on the gridiron and on the hockey rink. He can keep his patients Inter- ested with accounts of Keene High battles. Wll.I.lAM FREDYUM MARTIN Football 3 Be assured, I go to use my hands, and not my tongue. Bill has a great liking for water in both its natural and frozen state. As a skater he proves his ability to master its frozen surfaces, and as a naval officer, we are sure he will feel at home and he greatly respected by his associates. ELPHEGE JOSEPH MARTINEAU Al Hockey 2, -4: Baseball 2, 3, -lc Minstrel Show 2. 3, 4 H1 go, I go: look howl go: Swifter than an arrow from the Tartar's bow. Al doesn't need geometry to show him how to cut figures on the ice: he can do it without the help of the science of Euclid. We will never forget you. Al, in the Minstrel Show, putting over those clever jokes of yours. NIll.O ALBERT MATTSON Deeds not words. Niilo is always too busy in the shop to enter into sports, but we know he does enjoy them. Some years fiom now an A l machinist will es- cape once a week from his daily routine to watch Keene High School win victories. FLOYD MCARTHUR 'I'ho' he seems so very quiet, There's a sparkle in his eye That causes all his teachers To heave full many a sigh. We just have to give Floyd a machine in the machine shop, and he is happy to spend the whole day there. We wish him the greatest success. JAMES J. MCGINNESS Jim President 3: Football 1: Baseball 3, 4 I dare do all that may become a man: Who dares do more is none. A'Jimmy the Trojan was our Junior class president. We are sorry Jim took the 2.19 train every day because he was not then able to take part in the sports which he loved so well. We never realize that you were interested in Mechan- ics, 'AJimmy, or we would have put you to work. FRED J. MERRILL What virtue canst thou trace, In that broad brim that hides thy sober face? Fred was interested in machinery, so he took shorthand, trying to see what kinds of hgures he could make out of the Characters. Good machin- ists are certainly scarce, so he is using his time to the best advantage. HAROLD BARRETT NIMS Biddy Silence is the mother of Truth. Biddy really never says very much, but we know he does a great deal of deep thinking. His playing on the courts made up his stillness in the classroom. Biddy always Qmed thoroughly to enjoy himself, when engaged in class discussion and recitations. ALICE ANNA O'LEARY Al Secretary 3: Minstrel Chorus 4 There is a language in her eye, her cheek, her lip. Al sure is some Hne girl and fast too, espec- ially on a toboggan, If speed is a necessary requisite for a good stenographer, she surely has it. I-lere's luck to you Al. MARY EVA OLMSTEAD Eve Grace was in all her steps, heaven in her eye, In euery gesture dignity and love. Eva always is laughing, smiling, or talking, so it is quite natural that reading is her hobby. We wonder if a biography of Florence Nightingale influenced her choice of nursing as a profession. We're sure she will be a credit to her chosen work. If we are sick, Eve, we'll let you know. NORMAN H. PERREAULT Norm Basketball 3, 4: Football 2, 3, 4: Baseball 2, 3, 4: Track 2, 3, 4: Minstrel 4 But coach! coach! coach! Oh, for a coach, ye gods! Norm as an athlete was a howling success and his interest and achievements in athletics of course influenced his choice of a profession. We hope that some day our younger brothers will be coached on the gridiron by our old classmate. CHARLES W. PERRY Chick Basketball 3, 4: Track 4: Football 2, 3: Treas- urer 1: President 2 O, 'tis a parlous boy Bold, quick, ingenious, forward, capable. Chick's hobby, athletics, is probably due to his amazing success in basketball. He certainly brought fame to himself, good luck to the team, and honor to the class. WILLIAM H. PHILBRICK Bill Treasurer 2: Minstrel Chorus 2, 3, 4: Play l To God, thy country, and thy friend be true. Bill is one taxpayer's son who enjoys having his money spent on improvements on the roads to Swanzey Fatary. Bill can always get war' rants to force people to do things, but we doubt if he needs any of these for --. HELEN CAROLINE PHILLIPS Skimmy Whate'er she did was done with so much case, In her alone 'twas natural to please. Skimmy never does much talking with us, but quietness is a wonderful virtue and she will win in anything she may attempt. Although she hasn't as yet chosen a career, her willingness to work and cheery disposition will aid her in her future work. BLAKE PITCHER 1'31ahit-' Chaste words proceed still from a bashful mind. Blakie is a southemer, at least he comes from South Keene. Pitcher is interested in Normal School. How much money do you spend on Jelly-beans, Blakie? But then, suc- cessful bankers always do have lots of money. l.OIS ANGELA PITCHER Secretary l He cherish'd thine image for years. Lois in our Sophomore year left us for Flori- da, but the thoughts of a Farr land called her back. We know. Lois that you will be suc- cessful as a commercial teacher and we know you Won't forget Keene High, nor will Keene High soon forget you. BARBARA PLATTS Barb Basketball 2, 3: Track Z Her voice was ever soft Gentle and low, an excellenl thing in women, Though everyone now drives an automobile. Barb still much prefers to stick to her horse. Don't forget K. H. S. Barb. When you're touring Europe, won't you send us a postal card when driving in the Bois de Boulogne? RACHIZI. PRATT Run Be glad and your friends are many, Ray's choice of a Secretarial career in the busi- ness world is an excellent one, Your merry laugh, Ray, will brighten many a dull, sad morning and your steady faithfulness will certainly lead you to success, EDGAR Wll.l,lS REYNOLDS Our thoughts are ours, their end more of our own. Willis always appears very quiet in school, but We judge he knows how to talk outside. Someday we know that, waking up from his revery, a wonderful thought will proceed from his overcrowded brain. With this thought and his perseverance, he will be sure to win in whatever he attempts. GIZORGIZ EDWARD RIX RI'.X'i'Ll.' Hockey 3, -l Tis much he dares: rind, lo that dauntless temper of his mind, He hulh a wisdom tha! dolh guide his Uulorf' Rix could surely mix among the boys and was elected manager of the gridiron team. He played hockey with a vim and received a K in the sport. We certainly wish him the best possible in whatever he attempts. ELTON N. ROBERTS Fl Minstrel Chorus 3: Play 3: Enterprise Z, 3 O, I see thee old and formal, fitted to thy chosm part. With a little hoard of maxims preaching down a daughter's heart. If Elton builds his buildings on as firm a foundation as he bases his arguments, and if he builds them as high as his ideals reach they will be looked up to. We know he will achievc fame in constructing an architectural eighth wondc: of the world. MINNIE PEARL ROY Oh Min. What would thou have? Your gentleness shall force More than your force wave us to gentlenessf' Min knows how to ride a bicycle! I hope her worthy ambition may be fulfilled because travel- ing is surely a liberal education. Would a posi- tion as traveling saleswoman meet the require- ments? MARVIN RUSSELL . Men of few words are the best. Marvin can be found any day in the librarv pouring over countless volumes of scientific books. When you become a famous scientist. don't forget to think of K. H. S. CORRINE RUTH SAFFORD Tinkey ' No one knows what she can do till she tries. Tinkey has remarkabe ability with the needle, but in spite of this she desires to become a stcnographer. Although she is so tiny. her small head is filled with big ideas. If you don't break the record typing, Tinky, you certainly will by smiling. MADELEINE BALLOU SARGENT Maddie Secretary 1: Minstrel Show 3, 4 Smiling, frowning, evermore, Thou art perfect in loue-lore, Ever varying Madeleine. Fair lady with the sparkling eyes, please look our way and smile. Maddie, you can't decide upon a career. Well, we suggest secretarial work. We have our argument in favor of this statement backed by your ability shown as secretary of our class and various organizations. tc. ANNA CATHERINE SAVAGE Ann Earth holds no other like to thee. Ann has had very interesting experience in running an office, and, as experience is the best teacher, we're certain she will do well in the business world and bring back many laurels to K. H. S. EDITH MARION SEWALL Eddy On their own merits modest men are dumb. Eddy is another sport enthusiast who often graces the tennis courts. If she is as speedy a typist as she is a tennis player, we just know someone's going to have a fine stenographer. FLOYD GEORGE SHAW Shorty Scholastic Cup 3 Who broke no promise, served no private end, Who gain'd no title, and who lost no friend. Shorty is one of our classmates who never gives up. In fact he never gave up difficult sub- jects or taking fountain pens apart and trying to put them together again. His ability to read notes will surely aid him in carrying out his ambition to be a private secretary. BARBARA FRANCES SMITH Smithie Basketball 2, 3, 4: C4 Captainj 3 Hockey: Baseball 3 It is not strength but art obtains the prize. Smithie entered our class during her sopho- more year and immediately made herself known as a member of the varsity basketball team. She surely worked hard as captain during her senior gear. We are certain any college will appreciate er. HAROLD W. STEVENS Steve Football 2, 3, 4: Minstrel 4: Cheerleader 3, 4 Through endless states of being, still more near, To bliss approaching and perfection clear. Steve certainly attained his ambition to play football, as a member of our victorious team. We wish him as much success in further ambitions as he has achieved in this one. FRED LEE STILLINGS A good companion and as Hrm a friend. Fred is one of our friends from Surry. We don't see much of him outside of school, but we suppose that Surry must be a wonderful place because its sons have such an attachment for it. Herc's good luck for any undertakings of yours, Fred. I-lOl,l.lS VINTON STILLINGS Vim Men of few words are the best men. Vint, Fred's brother, is another product from good, old Surry. His steady perseverence and his ambitions will help him in his success. Good luck to you, Vintl LEROY PERI-IAM STONE My tongue within my lips I rein, For who talks much must talk in vain. Leroy never really told us about what he was thinking so seriously, but sometime far in the future, when he has become a successful business man. we know he'll write a worthwhile article on his recollections of K. H. S. XVILLIAM MORRIS THRASHER Turk Basketball 2: Football l, 2, 3, 4 To me the cries of fighting Eelds are charms, fKeeneJ be my sabre and of proof my arms! We know that Turk will make a wonderful soldier and we wish him all the success possible. If he plows through the enemy's line as he plowed through our opponent's line, he will dis- tinguish himself. LUCILLE L. UNDERWOOD Chihe Salutatory: Vice President 2: Enterprise 1, 3, 4 And choice, being mutual act of all our souls, Makes merit her election. Chike is certainly a wizard in her studies, but she always seems to have time for her favorite sport. dancing. A wonderful friend, and a bril- liant student. she certainly deserves the honors she received and we know she will make a splen- did teacher. WIl,I.lAM J. VADEBONCOEUR Hill Track 3. 4 Or schoolboy Midshipmun that. standing by. Strains his shrill pipe as good or ill betidesf' Bill's aspirations to go to Annapolis are indeed very lofty. but we're sure he will make good. When the keen air strikes youl' face. Bill. remember K. H. S. and your many friends far from the deep blue sea. MARGARET HELEN WATKINS llama In simple manners all lhe secret lies: Be kind and virtuous. youll be blest and wise. Peggy is a skillful typist and desires to be- come a candidate for a stenographer in some business office. We are certain she will win many laurels with hel' pleasant ways and skill with a typewriter. liDSON GERRY WHITCOMB, JR. KVhit1y Football 2, 3. 4: Baseball 1, 2, 41 Track 3 Minstrel Chorus 2: Play 4 He was noi merely a chip of the old block, hut the old block itself. Gerry's ambition is exceptionally worth- while. We are certain he will win an honorary degree after a hard-fought battle at College. His battles in sports will aid him in the fair play and hard lighting necessary for a college athlete and a good student. MRYTLE IRENE WHITE Whitie He is a fool who thinks by force or skill To turn the currenl of a woman's will. Whitie is led on by the thought of a nurse's uniform, but we know that every once in a while, the allurement of jazz will again capture its victim and lead her away for a few glorious hours. VIOLET ANNA BURBANK WHITE Vi The warmth of genial courtesy, The calm of self-reliance. Though Vi loves the great outdoors. she doesn't neglect her studies, and brings the spirit of Mother Nature's Wildwood into the classroom. We are sure she will become an excellent Home Economics Teacher. JOHN T. SMALL SmaIIy Football 3, 4: Hockey 3, 4: Track Z, 3: Year Book l I am one of those gentle ones that will use the devil himself with courtesy. Smally's gentle disposition was rather jarred when he became an enthusiastic boxer. His matches so often end in arguments, that Johnny has decided to turn all this verbal energy into business and as a lawyer we know he'll be no Small success. HAZEL VIVIAN NVILLARD lVlIl1'e Good company and flood discourse are the iierqx slnews of virtue. Willie is another one of thoxe capable girls who helped in the office. We always enjoyed her smile which was especially pleasant when she collected the slip in room 26, seventh period. NVhy the smile, Willie? HAZEL WILLIAMS Minstrel Z That caressing and exquisite grace-never bold, Ever present-which just a few women pos- sess. Our fair Hazel in the starchy-white uniform of a nurse at the Massachusetts General Hospital is a dream soon to be realized. She surely can't help but graduate with a high degree on account of her ability as a student, her winning ways. and her smiling countenance. LONA C. WILLIAMS Basketball Squad 2, 3: Orchestra Z, 5, 4: Var- sity 4: Year Book 4 4'Music.'-'Ol how faint how weak. Language fades before thy spell. Lona and Florence, the Basketball twins! It always was a question in our minds how Flor- ence let her become such a fine violinist. It might have been spite. We're very proud of our Lona. We know that Keene High won't soon forget her. MARY WILSON Willie Vice President 3: Minstrel Chorus Z, 3: Play 3: Enterprise 3, 4: Honor Essay 4 Gentlemen Prefer Blondes Mary entered our class in our Sophomore year. We always thought Surry was a quiet town, but since Mary has been there, it has ap- peared on the map. Mary, we shall always re- member you as one of our most versatile class- mates. RUBY MARGUERITE WILSON Bobby A friendly eye could never see her faults. Ruby's ambition is to learn how to swim. It's a mighty fine attainment and we're certain she'll make good. When you get back from swimming the channel Bobby let us know and we'll help you celebrate. CHARLES JOSEPH WOODS Charlie Hockey 4: Track I Of good men, the very best. Charlie is always happy, but more so when the ice is good for skating. He is a reliable player on our hockey team and always keeps our spirits up. He also keeps the puck in the offensive section of our territory. It is the first time anyone has ever heard of Woods being right at home on the ice. MAY ALSIE YARDLEY Orchestra 2, 3 4 And still we gaz'd, and still the wonder grew, That one small head could carry all she knew. May isn't very large, but the wide, White open spaces hold no fear for our brave little snow- shoe enthusiast. It is very easy to see that she will reach her ambition. Any business man may consider himself lucky to have our plucky little May for his typist. HOWARD GEORGE YON Howdie Speech is but broken light upon the depth of the unspoken. Howdie is a wiz in classes. At least, hc always answers all the questions. We're sure he will be a master of anv trade he chooses. In manual arts. Howdie you have learned the use and line result of planning. so please convince the people in Fitzwilliam to level their roads. MARION CAREY Kiki You never can tell. Kiki's picture was not finished in time to be printed. She is a very athletic girl, but owing to the fact that she lives out of town we saw her very little and she attempted no sports at Keene High. We are certain she will reach the highest rung of the ladder in her career as a school teach- er. JUNUOR 553 If ' Q, N KV -I ' 'f Fi?--5 - M ifffll 51- Hllnlm- - -X ' pl A Ai sf 4.

Secremru, EMILY W LL. RO ORIS CAR nrD Vzre Preside rio 1 5' fy Ab s o 1 Listen, my friends, and you shall hear Of the 1927 class career. It was four years ago in '23 When we entered K. H., S. with glee, 2 Our freshman year we worked with vim, Here our education did really begin. The choice of officers was our very first task. And for none better would anyone ask: V John Holbrook, as President. was chosen first To lead our class through the best or worst: - His able co-partner, our Lanie so gay. Carried out his instructions in every way: The quartet was finished by Madeleine and Chi:k. And don't you agree they're the best we could pick? 3 Our first social venture was Freshman reception, The best ever held, in our own conception. This soon was followed by a.weenie roast, Of which fine time we all did boast. A sleighride prevented by lack of snow We replaced by a dance, as you all know. It was during this year they started to buy, The field dedicated to Keene High Alumni. For completing this goal we all did strive, And each from his 'task much joy did derive. 4 The title of Sophomores we then assumed, And to a year of hard work we all seemed doomed. As our Sophomore Class President we chose Chick And Lucille Underwood, his assistant merry, Who were ably aided by Pitcher and Farr, Whose excellent records no thoughts can mar. We held Freshman Reception amid much cheer And nothing so gay came during the year, A weenie roast, concert, and dances were held. All of which we attended with joy unexcelled. 5 Athletes, many, we have possessed. Whom all considered the very best. Bill, Burly, and Turk, the dauntless three, A fearful trio appeared to be: For football, basketball, baseball, and track, For hockey, and tennis they have a great knack, And a countless number of heroes bold Might be named and their exploits told. 612:- Perry But the mention of Park, Fleming, Perrault, and Lane Will bring back to memory the others' fame. Page 42 6 Our Junior year was hardest of all, But one of the best we can recall. Jimmie, and Mary, Alice and Bill, The four class officers did efficiently fill. We had many dances the same as the rest, But the ones at Alumni Field were always the best. A basketball game between Keene High and Normal Did open the gym in a way far from formal. A rception to Seniors we gave in the spring. And much joy and pleasure it to all did bring. 7 The orchestra was far from lacking our aid, And to our musicians all homage be paid! Especially Bushey, the concert master, Whom none could surpass in playing faster. Farr was winner of the Harvard Book, And Floyd Shaw the Exchange cup took. While the book prizes were won, you see, In chemistry by Frances B. Many other honors we did take, And thus for ourselves a history make. 8 Our name of Juniors we soon had to lose, And then it was time other leaders to choose. After some discussion we chose Francis Park, Who, with co-partner Dorris, led many a lark. Bob and Alice assisted them well. Of better workers we're sure none could tell. Several dances took place both in spring and in fall, And a very good time was had by all. Now to you, Juniors, for our Prom dance, We wish to extend our most hearty thanks. 9 For four long years we all did work, And never one from his task did shirk. A closer race than has run in History Was run for the honor of Valedictory. Clarence Farr 'midst the plaudits of all, Beat Lucille Underwood by a margin small. The choice of class honors took very much time. It's rather difficult to say it in rime, But Florence, and Mary, and Frances, and Gay, Toward very high ranks were all on their way, l0 An expression of gratitude we now do give To the very best friends that ever did live, For now at this time we wish to extend Our heartfelt thanks to each teacher and friend. And to the Board of Education Who gave to us our graduation, And to our Principal so fine, Who helped us to have a wonderful time, And to all you others either schoolmate or friend, Who've aided and helped us our work to end. 11 A farewell we bid to the best class we know, And as through long years to success we go, May we remember with joy our life in Keene High, And for these four years will we always sigh! -Frances L. Beverstock -Mary E. Carpenter. .Q fra. -e-: me ,il v qv Q U ' .. te. , Q , WILL A We. the Class of 1927, of the city of Keene, Cheshire County and State of New Hamp- shire, being of sound mind and disposing memory, do hereby, make, publish, and declare this our last will and testament, hereby revoking all former wills, bequests, and devises ol what ever nature made by us. i Mr. Smith: Pupils who will enjoy having him as their principal as much' as we did.

Dorothy Small: A large classroom, so the growing freshmen will have room to stretch their feet. Charles Dresser: A hat box to keep his hat in. lf he can't use it for hats, he may use it for tickets. Elwin Damon: Actors and actresses who will add, as we have done, to his fame as a coach. Forrest Hall: Ear muffs. so the noise of the machines will not always be in his ears.

On December eighth Mu Delta Rho, one of the first of several clubs to be started this year was organized. lt is made up of members enrolled in the public speaking classes who have accomplished a certain amount of work in some branch of public speaking such as reading. debating, or dramatizing. Several interesting meetings have been held during the year. At the first one Barbara XVil- bur. who later won first prize in the New Hampshire state speaking contest, gave a humorous reading, and Christmas stories were given by Evelyn Strout and Lois Pitcher. At a joint meetf ing with the Enterprise Board, a short play was presented by members of the club. Besides several class debates, two important ones have been held. one being on the Phill lipine question and one concerning our Allied War Debts. Richard Gay deserves mention as one of our strongest debaters. At one of our spring meetings Mrs. Willard Wilbur gave a very interesting talk on The History of Drama. Many of the programs given at the meetings have been the result of regular class work during the public speaking periods. As a part for stunt night Mu Delta Rho with the Home Economics Club put on .1 little Japanese Sketch called Mousme of the Japanese Toy Shop. The leading parts were well played by Kathryn Adams and Robert Calef. Faculty Adviser .. .... ,.... ,,,. . ..,.. . . . RUTH V. BELKNAP President ........,.. CLARENCE FARR Vice President .,.. ......

To promote this two-fold purpose, each business meeting is followed hy a program dealing with Roman life, and by a social hour. The Club has about forty members.

During the year the club has subscribed for many publications which have been on tile in room 29. Several tech- nical books have been added to the club library. The club has also added several framed pictures of technical subjects to its interesting and instructive collections. The sum of ten dollars was donated by the club to defray the cost of changing one part of the hot water heating system in order that a reverse belt might be installed on the melting machine. The club was fortunate in securing Mr. Harry Shaw, editor of the Sentinel, to address the school at an assembly. Mr. Shaw talked on the subject of The Value of Practical Education and his remarks were interesting and instructive. Recently the club took part in a Stunt Night program, being represented by the Per- reault brothers, William Millington, and Roscoe Reed, who demonstrated that real talent is to be found in the club. The Brome '55 Sharpe Manufacturing Company, of Providence, R. I. sent a speaker, Mr. Goss, to address the junior and senior classes relative to their engineering courses open to high school graduates. The members of the M. A. curriculum are quite proud of their shop equipment and the club decided to have pictures taken, the same to be framed and placed in the club library. QA page of these are found elsewhere in the bookj. Accordingly seven pictures were taken by the Granite State Studio, including one picture showing samples of the machine work of the senior classes. Before the close of school it is planned to take the several classes on visits of inspection to various industrial plants.

Weston, Hannah Ellis, In November, 1926, a science club was formed in the high school. The club's aim is to promote among its students more interest in modern science. This is an important field of learning. which the students of the Keene High School should know more about than is possible for them to learn during class periods. Many interesting meetings have been held. The club has visited the Kingsbury Machine shop, and investigated Frigidaire. At one interesting meeting a lecture was given by Mr. Ralph Clark. who spoke on road building. Following Mr. Clarks talk, piano solos and vocal solos were rendered. After refreshments were served, the evening was brought to a close by a dance in the gymnasium. The club has about forty members, many of whom are charter members, Faculty Advisors .. ,.... MR.

Q - - f- - --Q -N , ff ACTIVITIES OF THE SCHOOL YEAR The first social event of the Year was the Freshman Reception, held in the gymnasium on Saturday evening. October ninth. The upper class officers made up the committee in charge. Francis Park, our senior class president, gave the welcoming address. Putnam Kingsbury. pres- ident of the freshman class, responded to the welcome. The faculty and the class officers stood in the receiving line while the freshmen were introduced by members of the junior and senior classes. The grand march, led by the class officers, followed. Then, came dancing, and later refreshments were served. The refreshments consisted of dixies and cake. There were card tables for those who did not care to dance. Everyone appeared to have a most enjoyable time. The party ended at eleven-thirty. On Saturday evening. October sixteenth, an informal dance was held in the school gymna- sium. This was held on the spur of the moment to celebrate our football victory over Concord. We could not get an orchestra at so late a date. so Miss Leining consented to play for us. We varied the program by dancing and singing. Mr. Latchis persuaded a nine piece orchestra from the vaudeville to come up and play for us after their act. They repeated their act for our benefit. We had a very enjoyable evening and were very pleased with our good luck: both because of our victory and because of the good orchestra. Our annual High School Minstrel Show took place Thanksgiving evening at the City Hall. Franklin Peart was the interlocutor and filled his position very well. The end men kept us laughing until we had to hold our sides. William Millington made a hit with his clog dancing and song Down by the Winegar Works. Other feature songs were Baby Face'7. and I Ate the Bolonyf' Between the first two acts, Florence Lane and Teresa Gilbo did the Charleston, and Charles Hanna and Armas Mackey did a very clever tumbling act. The chorus was extremely good. The second part consisted of a four-piece musical number, a Spanish dance by Ella Gauthier, and a toe dance by Marion Johnson. Robert Calef and Harris Clark showed us some clever and amusing tricks in the art of Black Magic. Then. last but not least, came the kitchen orchestra. This was very cleverly arranged. The Orange and the Black was sung by the students and the audience. Cheers ended a most enjoyable evening. The orchestra 'IC- companied the musical numbers, showing their great ability acquired under the directorship of Mr. Davis. The entertainment was in charge of a senior committee with the faculty advisors. The close of our most successful football season was celebrated by a dance in the school gymnasium, Friday evening, December eleventh. Our programs iwere' made in' the shape of footballs. Hfter having a grand march and receiving our programs, wecdanced. for the rest of the evening. Refreshments were served in the lunch room. On February twenty-first an Enterprise dance was held in the school gymnasium. A group of students decorated the gym Friday afternoon. The color scheme was carried out with orange and black crepe paper streamers and orange programs. Several copies of the Enter- prise hung around the edge of the balcony. Castaw's Orchestra furnished music. Refresh- Targa- 57 ments of ice cream and cake were served during intermission. The dance was put over most successfully and ended with quite a sum for Enterprise profits. Cappy Ricks, a three-act comedy was presented on March eleventh at the City Hall. The School Orchestra furnished music, opening the program with the overture Poet and Peasant. I Ralph Huse as Cappy Ricks carried out his part in an excellent manner, keeping the audience in fits of laughter. The captain's daughter, Florence, played by Pauline Sargent, captivated the audience as well as did Captain Matt Peasley, played by Gerry Whitcomb. Gerry played his part of a captain extremely well. Robert Calef, as Skinner, Cappy's general manager, pleased everyone with his fine acting. William Millington in the role of a dude with English manners furnished, to a great extent, the comedy. The chorus girl stenographer, and eventually Mrs. Cecil Pericles Bernhard, was played by Dorris Darling. The minor parts were taken by Catherine Coffin, as Aunt Lucy Ricks: Richard Gay, lawyer: and Louis Hall, chauffeur. A senior class committee was in charge with the aid of several faculty advisors. Stunt Night was held in Keene High School Assembly Hall, Wednesday, April 27th. This was the first event of that nature ever attempted. It created a great deal of amusement and won great applause from the audience. The entertainment was divided into tive acts, each act being given by the various clubs. The first act consisted of three classical pieces played by the school orchestra. The second act was given by the Mechanic Arts Club. This was divided into three parts: a trio composed of Norman, Clayton, and Paul Perrault, who rendered their songs in a delight- ful way: a violin solo played by Roscoe Reed accompanied by Reginald Doake: and a dance and song interpreted by William Millington with Reginald Doake again at the piano. The third act was given by the Commercial Club. It was a sketch entitled. Henry Jen- kins and Family Go Out for an Airing. Those who took part were: Anthony Sullivan, Madeleine Sargent, Pauline Sargent, Florence Lane, Teresa Gilbo, George McDonald, Mildred O'Brien, Mabel Beers, Beatrice Rousseau and Margaret Wichland. . The fourth act, given by the Science Club, was in the form of a radio broadcast. This consisted of several numbers played by a four piece orchestra with Ruth Edmunds, of the Normal School, at the piano: Edward Small. drums: Margaret Carey, violin: and Edward Gibbons. saxaphone. A xylophone solo by Edward Small and a violin solo by Roscoe Reed completed the act. Howard Wheelock acted as announcer. The fifth act, which' was given under the auspices of the Home Economics Club and Mu Delta Rho, took the form of a three act Japanese play. Those who took part were: Kathryn Adams. Richard Gay, Robert Calef, Ralph Huse, Karl Bruder, Elizabeth Perry, Sybil Burnell, Josephine Pickett, Emma Martineau, Doris Stevens, Evelyn Ware, Hilda Blombach, Marjory Pitcher, Ruth E.

KEENE 28, BELLOWS FALLS O Keene High School's opening game was played against Bellows Falls High School at Alumni Field. The weather was extremely hot and was a handicap to both teams. Although Keene scored Z8 points, their offence appeared weak as compared to their defence Bell F ll l ' ows a s cou d gain only two lirst downs. Turk Thrasher scored three touchdowns, one a run of 45 yards. Norm Perreault scored the fourth touchdown by receiving a pass from Fleming. KEENE HIGH 0, N. H. FRESHMEN 28 Keene High played its second game at Durham against one of the strongest freshman teams ever turned out there. The game was much closer than the score indicates It rained during most of the ame - 2 and three of the Freshmen touchdowns were results from blocked punts. The Keene line la d hl f p ye a w a e o a game holding the Freshmen for downs many times. This game gave Keene some valuable experience and showed that they had a powerful team. KEENE 73, MURDOCK O Murdock furnished but little competition during this game as Keene scored at will. It, however, gave Keene a cha b nce to rest etween the Durham game and the Concord game the following week. Greene, Thrasher, and Beverstock, did most of the ball carrying for Keene. KEENE 13, CONCORD O Concord came to Keene following a tie game with Manchester, which had left their minds too contident. The game was hardly five minutes old when Bill Connor picked up a muffled punt and ran 40 yards for the first score. This gave Keene an early start and a lead to light for. Stevens broke through Concord's line and tackled Haskell, who was about to throw a pass. Steve hit so hard that Haskell dro d h b ll ' ppe t e a and Norm Perreault scooped it up and dashed for Keene's second score. This ended the scoring. Both teams held strong and neither team could gain consistently Page 60 enough to get into a scoring position. Keene linesmen tackled so hard throughout the game that Concord was forced to call for several time-outs. This game put Keene High, instead of Concord, on its way to the state championship. KEENE HIGH 13, SPRINGFIELD TECH 0 :ay The next victory came from the hands of Springfield Tech. Keene's backheld was now beginning to show better form in both the running plays and in the forward passing. ' Both teams exchanged punts during the first quarter. Keene started a drive during the second quarter to Tech's 35 yard line. From here Perreault grabbed a short pass and by clever running got by Tech's secondary for the first score. The game was more or less spectacular as both teams completed several long runs and forward passes. In the second touchdown, Thrasher carried the ball around the end from the 15 yard line for Keene. Q Greene, Donovan, Bemis and Beverstock played a fihe game for Keene. KEENE 18, WORCESTER TRADE 0 Keene High displayed 'all the tactics of a strong football team to defeat. by three touch- downs, Worcester Trade. Worcester trade had a strong line, and the nrst half passed scoreless. Near the end of the third quarter Keene advanced the ball to the 20 yard line and here Thrasher was sent in to the game. He had been kept on the side lines because of an injury. Donovan and Thrasher alternating crashed through for first downs and then Donovan took the ball over on the next play. In the last quarter Keene High scored twice more. Stevens blocked a kick and Donovan recovered on Worcester's 32 yard line. Burly then broke' through left tackle for a clear field to a touchdown. Burly then showed that he could play the backfield as well as the line. A pass from Park to Perreault, netted the final touchdown. t KEENE 2, MANCHESTER 7 About 2,000 loyal fans followed the Orange and Black team to Manchester to their battle for the State Championship. As a result of a poor kick, giving Manchester the ball in mid-field. Keene was put in a dangerous defensive position at the beginning of the second quarter. Dougan, Ahlgren and Bozec gained three first downs and Mocek then scored from the ll yard line. Keene chose to receive the kickoff and began a 67 yard march down the field only to have the ball given to Manchester on the goal line by Cuddy Murphy, umpire, who ruled that the ball crossed the goal line after the referee had blown his whistle. The following play, Donovan blocked the kick from behind the goal line and Doughan recovered for Manchester giving Keene two points on a safety. With the exception of the last few minutes of play, when both teams opened up with passes, the remainder of the game was straight football. KEENE HIGH 13, BRATTLEBORO 0 Keene High won a hard fought game from Brattleboro 13-0. This gave Keene the first leg on the Latchis Football Cup. Brattleboro was unable to score or even to get at all dangerous. The men were worn out by the hard charging Keene line and the rushes of Beverstock, Donovan, Fleming and Park. KEENE HIGH 7, SPRINGFIELD, VT. 0 One of the hardest fought games of the season was played at Springfield, Vermont. Keene has been the only team to defeat Springfield in the past two seasons. During the first half, both teams fumbled several times and the bulk of the play was in Keene's territory. During the second half Keene showed more pep and pushed the Springfield team back to their goal line. Park caught a punt on Springf1eld's 36 yard line and carried it back to the l8 yard line. Rushes by Donovan and Thrasher carried the ball to the six yard line and from there Donovan crashed over. ' Keene nearly scored twice more, once losing the ball on the goal line by downs hnd again when a pass failed by a close margin. KEENE HIGH 16, GARDNER 7 Keene High closed a successful season on Thanksgiving by defeating Gardner 16-7. Dur- ing the first half. Keene scored two points on a safety by Gardner's fumble and six more when Benny Bemis scooped up a fumble and dashed 40 yards for a touchdown. In the last period Park worked the sleeper around Gardner's end for 20 yards. Rushes by Beverstock. Donovan, and Thrasher carried the ball to the extra point. Toward the end of the game many subs were sent in, and it was during this time that Gardner scored its only touchdown. Only one other touchdown was scored against Keene High during the season by a High School team. Pug: 61 Wiwrwm ,- ......

Keene High journeyed to Gardner, January eighteenth. and returned with a 26-14 count against them. The Maassachusetts team lead throughout the game. Park and Donovan ex- celled for Keene.

Keene, who was never headed at any part of the game, kept a safe lead for itself. Park and Barry were high scorers. On January twenty-fifth, Keene met its second defeat at the hands of Brattleboro, 31-10. The game was fast, resulting in sixteen personal fouls being called, putting Park and Connor on the side lines. Burly Donovan was high scorer for Keene with ten points. Keene was defeated 24-22 on February first by Greenfleld in a very fast and exciting game. In the last two minutes of play Greenfield cut down a tive point lead to win by one basket. On February fourth Keene added Peterboro to its list of victims, when our boys defeated Peterboro 39-16 at Peterboro. Keene started off at such a fast pace that Peterboro had to trail the remainder of the game. Fark, Barry, and Donovan with fourteen, ten, ten points respectively were high scorers. For a second time this year Keene defeated Murdock High 33-11 at Keene, February eighth. Clever team work and a strong defense on the part of Keene were responsible for the victory. Park and Barry were best on offense, while Perry stood out on the defense. February eleventh, Keene again met its jinx and was defeated for a second time this year by Gardner 23-21. It was the fastest game witnessed at the gym this season. Gardner led at the half and led to a few minutes from the end. when Keene tied the score.

At last when Miss Brown came this fall, as girls' athletic director. their dreams were realized and a varsity team was organized to compete with other schools. They played only three games during the season. The first one was on October four- teenth with Keene Normal School. The teachers' team was composed of veterans and had a difficult time securing two goals in the first three quarters. The game was then called off on account of darkness. Their next contest was with the High School at Gardner, Massachusetts, on October twen- ty-sixth. Because of a much stronger team, Gardner won 6-0. The last game our girls played was a return game with Gardner on our Held on November eighth. Keene showed very good teamwork and played a good defensive game, but were not able to stop two goals, which were made by Gardner in the last half. 1' ., it ,- as HOCKEY TEAM Back row, left to right: Julius Bergeron, John Whitcomb, William Connor, Lucien Ald- rich, John Gleason, George Rix. lfronl row: Coach Watkins, Edmund Fleming, Charles Woods, Millard Bemis. The Keene High School turned out its first champion-ship team this past season. Too much praise cannot be extended to our Hockey coach, Mr. Watkins, who was largely responsible for the season of five undefeated contests. The Hrst contestant to taste defeat was the Vermont Academy sextus. This game was a hard fought battle by both teams, due to the poor condition of the ice. This battle took place on the Vermonters' ice, and no score was chalked up until the last minute of the game when Bill Connor sent the disc into the opponents' net and won the game for our team. The next opponent to bow to Keene was the Mount Vernon School, by a score of 3-1. This game, also a hard fought battle on poor ice, took place at Keene. The Academy boys deserve much credit for their efforts, but lacked the ability to put the puck past our goalie, Charlie Woods. ln this game Bill scored one and Ed Fleming two. The other players. Martineau, Aldrich, and Cluckey, deserve applause for their prowess in the defense. Next came the Tri-State League Champion-ship games, in which Keene High emerged the victor. The participants were: Rutland, Vt., Brattleboro, Vt., Greenfield, Mass., and Keene, N. H, The first game of the series was between Rutland and Brattleboro, the game going to Rutland. The second game was between Greenfield and Keene. In this game, Greenfield forged ahead 2-0, but the score was quickly evened up by two goals by Fleming. The winning tally for Keene was made by Hill. The score at the end of the game was 3-2. The victors of those two games, Rutland and Keene, played for the champion-ship. At no time in this game did Rutland take the lead, Fleming scored all four goals for Keene, while Rutland was held to three tallies. This tournament was played at Bellows Falls, Vermont, and the Keene High School hockey players sincerely appreciated the way they were received in the Vermont town. 1' ti ,rf .' nu The last game of the season was another contest between Vermont Academy and Keene. This game was, however, a complete run away for Keene. the score being 8-1. Connor and Captain Fleming were responsible for four points each. The season was officially closed by the awarding of letters to Captain Edmund Fleming, William Connor, Lucien Aldrich. Flphege Martineau, Bertrum Clukey. Charles Wood, John Small, John Gleason, John Whitcomb. Julius Bergeron, George Rix and Manager Millard Bemis. We must not by any means forget to put in this article the fact that a generous gift of new hockey equipment was presented to the Keene High School by Mr. Friedsam, a good friend of the high school. The scoring of the season was done by Fleming and Connor, Captain Fleming making twelve goals, and Connor making seven, WON'T THE SENIORS MISS- Mr. Paige's History assignments? Detentions?
