If you are human, you haveg and if you have realized your wish, you have for a while at least, felt supreme happiness. It is a kind of happiness that lifts us above the dull andi sordid things of life up, up, into seventh heaven. In Seventh Heaven, that idealistic production which we have chosen to introduce our Senior Class Section, Diane put Chico into seventh heaven with her very smile, for to Diane who had been beaten and almost worked to death by her heartless sister the little seventh story home of Chico was a paradise where one reached out to pluck the stars. Chico 'had chosen this home next the sky as a refuge at night where he could dream his dreams far away from his work iii the sewers of P-aris. As freshmen we were in the sewers of ignorance, but even as Chico we have worked our way up until we have at last attained our fondest freshman desire. We are seniors! After three years of struggling, this truly seems like our seventh heaven. We realize that we have still greater heights to climbg but with little Diane's resolute courage we shall reach up with no fear of the depths of temptation which lie below us, until weltoo shall touch a star.

Career: Ar A.. 1, 2, 3, 43 Varsity track, 2, 3: Class track, 23. Audubon, lg Lincoln-Douglas, 23 Hi-Y, 2, 3, 4: Senior rung committee: Property Manager senior play: Glee Club. 3. Here we have before us one of the few unattached young men in our colony. However he is not totally immune to Cupid's arrows, as you would see if you asked him about his trip to Canada. This new interest is probably the one reason that accounts for Mort's taking one of Miss Cordes' famous French at Sight in Thirty Days courses. Sadie Aduchefsky S9 North Front Street Prospect: New York State College for Teachers. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 43 Prisma, 3, 4g Mary Lyon, 4. Sadie not only photographs well, but even off the screen her charm is apparent. She is the pride of her directors, for she is one of those modest, studious girls whose efforts are rewarded by high marks. Sadie is the living repudiation of the generally accepted rule that brains and charm do not travel in pairs. Charlotte Atkins 61 Wall Street Prospect: College. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4: Interclass athletics, 1, 2, 3, 4: Prisma, 3, 45 Hi-Y Auxiliary,A43 Senior play committee: Senior play property committee, Maid of Honor to May Queeng Class day speaker. In half her pictures Charlotte is the utterly carefree comedienne and her audiences laugh and laugh and laugh: but she is just as convincing and even more inspiring in pictures that call for seriousness, for grace, and poetic appreciation. Atkins makes everyone love her, although when truly serious she is as awe inspiring as the oracles of old. Benjamin Bahl 19 Chambers Street Prospect: College. Career: A. A,, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5: Varsity football, 3. 4, 5: Second team football, 1, Varsity Letter Club, 3, 4, 53 Hi-Y, 2, 3, 4, 5. In contrast with Benny's good nature is his desire to play the villain, and we notice that his hrst step in realizing this desire is the growth of a mustache. But we are of the opinion that Ben's directors will never indorse him as a villain for the stronger side of his personality will always crop out. e K - . - - , A 7-V3 X.,-' ,se iq w e gf 9 :N x aes X .S t S s i Milton Ball 50 East Strand Prospect: N. Y. U. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4: Interclass athletics, 1, 2, 3, 4: Lincoln-Douglas, 1, 23 Audubon, 15 Conservation Club,1. It is extremely difficult to find an actor who is not temperamental in one way or another. However, in Milt we believe we have that phenomenon: for not only has he acted well his four years in Educational Pictures Inc., but also has always had such an even disposition and friendly attitude towards all of us that we suggest that in his future career he play the role of a diplomat. Doris Barmann 309 Albany Avenue Prospect: New Paltz Normal. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 33 Intcrclass athletics, lg Prisma, 43 gilge Club, 1, 43 Gypsy Rover cast, 45 May Day exercises, We wonder whether Doris knows how much we like to watch her acting her part. She must not blame us though, for it is because of her beauty. She is one of the few blondes of our studio, and her eyes-there are none to compare with them. Yet, withal, she is modest and friendly. Millie Beatty Stone Ridge Prospecl: New York State College for Teachers. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 45 Interclass athletics. 1, 2, 3, 43 Captain basketball, 31 Prisma, 3, 43 Prisma prize, 23 Mary Lyon, 2, 35 Hi-Y Auxiliary, 3, 4. Millie is undecided as to the setting for her next picture, but she has given us reason to believe that it will be either in Scotland or in a rural community with a special delivery man the hero. Whichever she does, we're sure it will be done well, as Millie has proved to us during her stay in K. H. S. that she does well what she attempts. Ye Gods, annihilate but space and time, And make two lovers happy! Vivian A. Beatty 122 Linderman Avenue Prospecl: New York State College for Teachers. Career: From Coxsackie High School, 4: A. A., 45 Interclass athletics, 43 Prisma, 4, Hi-Y Auxiliary, 4. Vivian is one of our new stars. She has proved herself to be a clever little actress, whose interpretations reflect the line quality of her character and whose friendliness about the colony has greatly contributed to her popula- rity. Viv proves that individuality can be found in obscure, rustic places. - Q S . :ex 1 'N 'W .s.,' S. 5.

After starring in Special Delivery, which was shot in Hall B, she signed long term contracts with companies A and 12. We hear she is giving up comedy acting to star in Rebellion, so the directors had better watch out. We wish Mary success, even though we'll be minus a comedienne of worth. Edna Britt R. F. D. 2 Prospect: Pratt Institute. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4: lnterclass athletics, 1, 2, 3, 4: Captain baseball, 1, 23 Captain newcomb, lg Captain hockey, 2: Audubon, 1, 2. What would happen if anyone saw Eddy in a serious picture? We don't know, for she is the eternal come- dienne. It seems to us that her main interests are athletics and an athlete. Someone heard her say she liked to sew and work, but we can't believe it because she's sol popular when not on the lot and so very active doing other than domestic tasks. Homer Brown 199 Smith Avenue Prospect: Cornell. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4: Second team football, 2, 33 Varsity football, 43 Captain second team basketball,.3g Varsity basketball squad, 4: Class baseball, 23 Varsity baseball, 33 Varsity track squad, 4g Varsity Letter Club, 45 Hi-fl, 2, 3, 43 Lincoln-Douglas, 15 Stronghearl cast, 43 Athletic Editor MAROON. The young man whom you see before you is a gentle- man, athlete, and scholar. Besides possessing these accomplishments, he is one of the film colony's most promising young actors, particularly specializing in love scenes. During the past year, however, he has been a tramp actor, working in many studiosg but, as the MAROON goes to press, he is under contract with the Henry Street studio where he declares he is going to settle down. Margaret Brown 15 West Chestnut Street Prospect: College. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 45 Interclass athletics, 1, 2, 3, 4: Prisma, 3, 45 Prisma prize, 13 Hi-Y Auxiliary, 4g Property Manager Strcmghearl, 4: Slronghearl cast, 45 Costume mistress Smilin' Thraugh, 4: A. A. play committee, 4: Senior play committeeg Joke Editor MAROONL com- mencement speaker. Brownie is a versatile little lady. Coupled with her ability to act as naively as Mary Pickford, is a sophisti- cation worthy of the jealousy of Greta Garbo. However, Fate will cast Brownie for the great Play, and she will be successful, for is she not a Shader brilliant than we? lVi-AE Q ' S9 Q 'A sex BS QLQVS x,s ,-0 s S S 'H' - - X N Mary Rosalind Canfield 80 West Chester Street Prospect: Curtis Institute of Music. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4: Interclass athletics, lg Prisma, 4, Hi-Y Auxiliary, 43 Audubon, lg A. A. Vaudeville, lg May Day exercises, 1, 2, 3. Rosalind says she enjoys playing the pathetic roles, but we haven't noticed her in any such part yet. Not until this last term did the studio begin to appreciate her abilities. She is now one of the few stars whom everyone likes to play opposite. Robert Carpenter 145 Highland Avenue Prospect: Business. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4, Hi-Y, 3, 4, Lincoln-Douglas, 1. Until recently Bob has played the parts of a good worker and a loyal friend in a juvenile way to suit himself. Lately however, although he is still loyal and willing. we have noticed him looking about for a more serious part in some such production as Woman- handled, Service for the Ladies, or possibly, Women Wise. Well Bob, we wish you joy in your new choice and may you never live to regret your error. Daniel F. Cassidy Rosendale Pmspeci: Syracuse. Career: From Poughkeepsie High School, lg A. A., 2, 3, 43 Interclass athletics, 2, 3, 4g Conservation Club, 25 Lincoln-Douglas, 2. Dan, as we note by his surname, is of Spanish paren- tage. His wit and humor, so characteristic of his ancestors has pepped up many a weary actor to greater accomplishments. Dan is now getting ready for his next picture. The Young Commander, and is planning to shoot many of his scenes in and around West Point. Rose Cavano 128 Broadway Prospect: Business School. Career: A. A., 3, 4: Prisma, 4: Newcomb, 1. In Rose we End reflected a glimpse of gay, romantic old Italy. Her personality and her ability to play her part well, make her particularly suited to such a picture as Romola. However, as her contract with our studio soon expires, she is seeking an engagement to play The Effcienl Business Woman. E w 1 1 1 1 6 I I I I I I W S S S N W M S N W w. 'S m w as w as Q. of B.

A., 1, 2, 3, 43 Interclass athletics, 1, 2. 4: Captain baseball. 1, 3: Captain hockey, 2: Captain basketball, 1, 2, 3: Prisma, 3, 4. Very boyish, but not at all tom-boyish, is Maryemma. She is fitted in many ways for playing dual roles but her complete straight-forwardness keeps her from doing so. A clear head insures her against mixed lines and wrong cues. Lillian Coffin 44 Henry Street Prospect: College. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 43 Interclass athletics, 1, 2, 3, 41 Pfisma, 3, 45 Hi-Y Auxiliary, 4: Costume mistress, senior P3Y- . We wonder whether Nin has her lines mixed? What is her role anyway? At one time she is careless, witty and otherwise provoking. Again, she will pronounce wisdom and philosophy far beyond her years. Is she at heart the flippant freshman with the serious senior mask, taken off at times for relaxationg or does Lillian really play a double role? Benjamin Cohen 72 North Front Street Pvospert: N. Y. U. Career: A, A., 2, 3, 4g Audubon, 11 Band, 4, Orchestra, 4- Here is the star of the First International. Bennie' you see, was born in gay Paree, but he has become thoroughly naturalized and has acquired many of the American habits and custonis. He has also acquired the American taste for that confection from which he has derived his nickname Ice Cream Cohen. Helen M. Conklin 60 Lindsley Avenue Prospecl: Kingston City Hospital Training School. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4: Prisma. 3. 4: Mary LYON, 4 Hi-Y Auxiliary, 4. Helen is busily preparing for the next picture in which she is to appear as a nurse. We are sure it is a part to which she is well adapted and we believe that she will be well received after the success she has gained in just We Too. g 4 Q Sars ,sv +L - v -' Q S A Q N Q fuels Q .S 9 s s s. g 5 s Allan Coutant Ulster Park Prospect: General Electric School. Career: A. A., 2, 3, 43 Interclass athletics, 2, 3: Conser- vation Club, 2. As soon as Al's contract with K. H. S. expires in June, he will begin another wth Hoot Gibson. This contract calls for a strong, handsome cowboy, and Al will fill it most admirably, for is not such a splendid physique as his the envy of many a striving actor? During his engagement with K. H. S., he has found diversion in reading and is following a certain story very closely. Alma C. Cook Prospect: Hospital Training School. Career: A. A., 4g Prisma, 4. Alma plays the title role in The Girl Nobody Knows. It is the boast of most of the cast that nobody really knows us, but, -sad to relate, in most cases others read us like books. This is not so with Alma, for she really has her true being camouflaged with extremely misleading lines. She has been a credit to K. H. S. with her fine scholar- shipg so from these observations, we are more convinced than ever that blessings come disguised. I Harold Frank Davis 34 East St. James Street Prospect: College. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 43 A. A. Council, 43 Varsity football, 3. 4: Manager varsity basketball, 43 Manager interclass basketball, 3g Varsity Letter Club, 43 Hi-Y, 2, 3, 43 President Lincoln-Douglas, 13 Webster-Hayne, 2: Conservation Club, 33 Bankers' Council, 33 Audubon, 1, 23 Slrorrgheart cast, 43 Smilin' Through cast, 43 Com- mencement speaker. Harold is one of our actors who has studied his lines and practised his gestures and facial expressions so diligently that he can master any role from a much damaged football player to a passionate murderer. An Englishman has said that he hopes the United States Americans will never try to produce the Odyssey as they are not scholarly enough to do it properly. How- ever, we believe that Harold will some day be producing this famous epic in a manner truly Homeric. Marjorie S. Darrow 153 Pearl Street Prospect: Cornell. Career.' A. A., 1, 2, 3, 43 Prisma, 3, 43 Glee Club, 2.3, 43 Japanese Girl cast, 3: Gypsy Rover cast, 43 Hi-Y Auxili- ary, 3, 4. Marge has gone Rollin' Through her four years, for she is good skate as well as a skater. She is planning to join a company near Ithaca next year where she will get some first hand information on co-ed colleges. Her primary motive, though, is to learn more about domestic science. We can readily see what a world of understand- ding lies hidden in Marge's motive. X Q X S Twcn ty-five 5 XC E William Dean 25 East Union Street Prospect: University of Pennsylvania. Career: A. A., l, 2, 3, 45 Interclass athletics, 2, 33 Audubon, 1. Bill's latest picture, The Custodian of the College Can, is one of his biggest successes. As the title denotes, many of the scenes were taken in his Ford. This Ford will also be in constant use during the shooting of his next picture Rosendale After Midnight. We understand that after he completes his present contract, he is planning to produce his own pictures. This being the case, many of his scenes will undoubtedly be taken in and about Rosendale. Ruth Dixon Marbletown Prospect: Cortland Normal. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4: Interclass athletics, l, 2, 3, 43 Prisma, 3, 45 Hi-Y Auxiliary, 4. Good nature is the glass through which Dick reads her lines and she interprets them accordingly. It would take a very disagreeable villain, indeed, to rob her of her habitual cheerfulness. Let us hope she ever continues in the part of optimistg 'twill afford her audience much enjoyment. Margaret Donald Edclyville Prospect: New Paltz Normal. Career: A. A., 3, 45 Interclass athletics, 1, 2, 3, 4: Prisma, 3, 4: Senior play committee: Smilin' Through cast, 4g Commencement speaker. It is the unexpected joys of life that make it worth living for our directors. Kathleen proves to be one of those delightful surprises that come in small packages. She is a mysterious little package too, for. with all her mischievousness, she emerges in the final act the most scholarly among us. Added to this she has the distinction of being the only Scotch actress in our senior cast, though it is diflicult to think of her as other than a naive, little mavourneen with a fascinating brogue. Beatrice A. DuBois 50 Josephine Avenue Prospect: Business School. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 43 Interclass athletics, 1, 2, 3, 4: Prisma, 3, 43 Glee Club, 3, 43 japanese Girl cast, 31 Gypsy Rower cast, 4. Here is one of the strangest Bees we ever saw! She doesn't buzz much, but she doesn't need to, for looks speak louder than words. We have heard that Cornwall offers sweet attraction for some Bees. l 'i .

Lena is the best sport to be found in our studio. Since she is not the least bit temperamental, we always know her parts will be acted with even excellence and good taste. She is classed with the favorites who need no press agents to advertise their acting. Louise Elwyn Vifoodstock Prospect: Business. Career: A. A., 2, 3, 43 Prisma, 3, 4. Here is some news! Louise has recently changed her type of Hlm. When she first arrived at our studio, her pictures were chiefly about business life, of which That Gay Slenog is a characteristic example. Lately, however, we find her in a more serious and suitable role, that of the heroine in Buzzey's Wagon, in which she is meeting with such great success that we are almost certain she will continue playing in this type of picture. Anthony J. Erena 69 Cedar Street Prospecl: N. Y. U, Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 45 Varsity track, 2: Varsity basketball, 3, 45 Interclass athletics, 1, 2, 3, 43 Captain class basketball 2, Varsity Letter Club, 3, 45 Bankers' Council, 2. When a Freshman, Tony decided to play the role of a basketball star and worked for four long years playing in- ferior parts. Finally, with the aid of a bird cage, he attained success. And lo! in the past year, Tony has not only climbed the ladder to a prominent place in Varsity but has even made his way into the hearts of many of our seniors. Arthur John Eymann 108' Elmendorf Street Praspecl: Gettysburg College. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 43 Interclass athletics, 3, 43 Second team baseball, 2g Hi-Y, 2, 3, 4, Audubon, lg Varsity baseball, 4. . Art played a quiet role in high school until his fourth year. Then he came rapidly into the limelight for his good work in class basketball and for his relief pitching on the baseball team. But his interests are not confined to heroic parts on the battleheld of sport: recently he has developed a decided taste for romantic drama. Good nature is Art's formula for friendship. 3 D I D Twenty-.rc'ven lei!

A., 2, 43 Prisma, 45 Prisma emergency committee, 4, Glee Club, 3, 45 Orchestra, 1, 2, 3, 4: Gypsy Rover cast, 4. Who is this distinguished looking member of the cast, you ask? Some allurement draws us to look again for there is something intriguing about her appearance. Ruth is aiming high, for someday she expects to be a musical director and we're backing her. We are! We are! Rose Marie Feeney 156 Hunter Street Prospect: Benedictine Training School. Career: A. A., 2, 3, 43 Interclass athletics, 23 Prisma, 3, 45 Smilin' Through cast, 4. To those of us who enjoy the beautiful Imiian Lan Call from Rose Marie it seems strange that Rose should star in Smilin' Through rather than Stronghearl. 'All who saw her, however, will agree that our directors made no mistake in believing that Rose was capable of inter- preting a sympathetic, wholesome part. And why shouldn't Rose be discriminating in the roles she plays, for does she not read widely and ponder much? C. Herbert Finger Mt. Marion Prospect: R. P. I. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4, 53 Varsity cross country, 43 Track 4, 53 Varsity Letter Club, 4. 5: Hi-Y, 3, 4, 5: Banking Council, 4, 5: Webster-Hayne, 49 M. A., 15 Audubon, 1, Senior ring committee, 5. The part of this boyish, curly haired young gentleman is that of a comedian. A grin, a mischievous wink, a word or two, and his act is done. When he withdraws from the ordinary mortals that make up the cast and appears momentarily as director, he makes everyone get down to business: or, rather, stand up and,cheer. He often assumes the attitude which Harold Lloyd practised before he entered Tate as the Freshman. George Flemming 33 New Street Career: A. A,, 1, 2, 3, 4, 53 Hi-Y, 2, 3, 4, 5. The first three years of George's contract with the K. H. S. Producing Company were spent quietly playing minor parts in stag casts, but in his last year he decided to try a romantic role. As is often the case with actors, his choosing of a heroine was his making and from then on he has steadily ascended the steps of popularity till now he is one of the best known and best liked actors about the colony.

Kitty's followers will ever remember her in lf Dreams Come True. Kit can adapt herself to any role. She is the poetess, the artist, and the juvenile actress ofthe class. Some even dare to say that by clever acting she outshone Baby Peggy in her last. picture. We have great expectae tions for Kitty in the silent drama. Max Frankel West Park Prospeci: N. Y. U. Career: A. A., 2, 3, 4: Audubon, 1. In moviedom not every one can play the stellar roles: so heretofore Max has been relegated to such minor parts as the knock on the door or the all-pervading silence, but certainly hard-hearted directors can no longer keep a good man down. Therefore, we expect to see Max on location in a few years as physician-general to the cast or as the strong, silent hero in a heart-stirring drama. Mildred L. Freer Port Ewen Prospect: New Paltz Normal. Career: A. A., 3, 4, Prisma, 3, 4. Mildred, another star whose light is wasted in the wilds of Port Ewen, impersonates Virtue and Milton tells us: Love Virtue, she alone is free. She can teach ye how to climb Higher than the sphery chime, Or, if Virtue feeble were, Heaven itself would stoop to her. Esther Friedman 12 Pine Street Prospect: Pratt Institute. Career: A. A., 1, 3, 4, May Day exercises, 1, 25 Or- chestra, 1, 2, 35 Prisma, 3, 43 Girls' A. A. Council, 3. For her various exacting roles, Esther has taken up hunting the hawk.

There was a part in the senior cast that called for a tall dark curly-headed hero and Sid has played this part most excellently. The glibness of his tongue has long been the marvel of many of us, and now that the talking movies are in vogue, we are sure that Sid will be doubly successful.

Carl is the serious-minded Ricardo Cortez of our Senior Class. There is a rumor abroad that he would like to play the lead in Johnnie Get , Your Hair Cul. However, we are anxiously waiting for the release of his latest picture, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. We know that it will be a success-in spite of the fact that he is rather skeptical about the natural coloring of woman's crowning glory. . Jacob Gamzon Ulster Park Prospect: College. Career: From Mount Vernon High School, 4: A. A., 4. This actor, the latest addition to the famous senior troupe, has his studio located at Ulster Park. In the short time he has been with us, his quiet manner and friendly smile have firmly established him onthe K. H. S. lot. We are sure that whatever vocation he may choose to interpret Jake will have a major part. Kathryn Marian Gibbons Port Ewen Prospect: Business College. Career: A. A., 3, 43 Interclass athletics, 1, 2, 3, 4: Prisma, 3, 43 Orchestra, 2, 3, 4. Kay made her first appearance in K. H. S. as a demure little lady, having just hnished her contract in The Lillle Red School. Her biggest hit of this year was My Rival, but we mustn't forget that she was only acting, for Kay's rivals would be difficult to find.

Irene made her debut in Christmas Pajamas, which started us all off for the holidays in a spirit of good cheer. Besides being a juvenile lead, Rene sometimes takes the part of a grown-up. We observe however, that whatever the character she portrays, Irene always can boast of being one of the favorites of the fans. Lillian Groves 89 Lucas Avenue Prosfzecl: Business College. Career: A.

Lillian has a certain personality that wins the actors and dir-. Oh, no, it is her close attention and good work that wins them. So they say! At any rate she is a clever girl and we all admire her.

We think that Sarah prefers the speaking stage. Because of her scholarly look and actual experience along intellectual lines, Sarah was exceptionally well fitted to star in Varsity Debating, her outstanding production this year. But Sarah can play less serious roles, as we see by her success in Quietly, Girls. Edna E. Hall 52 Lafayette Avenue Prospect: New Paltz Normal. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 45 A. A.

Do gentlemen prefer blondes? Well, one gentleman does, emphatically. This fact does not escape our Argus-eyed directors, much to Edna's despair. Ed's chief joy is playing the heroine role opposite a curly- haired hero, and if her directors were not careful she might work overtime and unfit herself for the more serious role she is preparing to play next year.

From the shapes and contortions this fellow getS himself into, we somet.imes wonder whether it isn't Lon Chaney in one guise or another.

Can you imagine a gay, care-free young star liking insects? Well, Margaret does, but she specializes in one certain kind of Bug. She is guite an athlete, so we'll give her the credit she deserves for she does know the effective use of it. Alfred Hasbrouck Stone Ridge Prospecl: University of California. Career: A.

Although Alfred's character is a little too deep lor the majority of us to understand, we all feel proud to have so Gne an actor in our studio. His interpretations have been a large part of many of our pictures, especially Slrongheart and Smilin' Through. But no matter how busy he is, he always has time to tell us something to make us laugh. No wonder we all like Alfred. Ann Elizabethl-Ierzog 171 Wall Street Pmspecl: Wellesley. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4: Girls' Athletic Council, 3: Vice-President A.

Ann is perhaps the best known of us all. We know her in dramatics, in athletics, in musical activities, in fact, everything which goes to make an all round girl. We understand that Ann is considering taking up a serious study of drama, and judging by her great success in two of her most recent plays, Strongheart and Smilin' Through we urge her to do so. By Ann's success in playing opposite the heroes in the aforesaid plays, we can understand Ann's delight in having a different hero for each of her scenarios.

Good, clean, Irish comedy is Betty's specialty, Her directors are often led by the name Hay'Brook to make a farmerette of her, but Betty always takes it as a joke. All the senior Cast agree that Betty is a good friend, a good sport, a good student. Dorothy E. Hicks 67 Smith Avenue Prospect: New Paltz Normal. Career: A. A., 2, 3, 4: Interclass athletics, 2, 3, 4: Prisma, 3, 4. Dotty's ambition is to star in an historical drama. The modern historical drama would undoubtedly hold the greater appeal for ,her audience since she could expose her bobbed curls, but it is rumored that Dotty herself has been seriously considering the ancient. We don't wish to commit ourselves, but we wonder whether the recent discovery that spelling was an unknown subject in those days hasn't something to do with Dot's considera- tion. Matilda M.

Tillie screens best as the boyish young thing who feels that she can't become really serious for a long, long time yet. Her latest successes are The Slringing Arm, .Bring on the Next, a most. remarkable farce, and the Flapper Arlisl. Milton Hooper Esopus Prospect: Pratt Institute. Career: A. A., 2, 3, 4, 5. Milt, unlike most of the senior actors, commutes be- tween K. H. S. Studio and his country home at Esopus. Milt is one of the most loyal members of our cast, for whenever our actors travel to neighboring studios to shoot athletic scenes, he may be seen following the team in his Dodge roadster which is usually overloaded. In case of tire trouble Milt needs no thotl air pump. Thirty-three 1 m Q -12 Vx xs ' ' ' ' , t . . F x s 0 5 Q Bras S .Q s s 1 -V 1- I 5 l W E . Thirty-four .Joseph J.

A,, 1, 2, 3, 4g Second team baseball, 1, 25 Varsity baseball, 43 Hi-Y, 3. During the fall and winter months, Loren suffered from a severe heart attack. He then went up into the mountains. We don't know whether mountain air was recommended as a cure, or whether he is doing practice work for his next picture. While with us, he not only played the part of a diligent student but also of a good sportsman. Who has forgotten last year's short-stop Dynamite Hover? . I Eleanor C.

Eleanor makes an unostentatious appearance on the screen, playing the parts that demand reliability and common sense. She's a baseball lan, a good sport, and, of course, not a bit Edgy! Catherine M.

Catherine is our psychologist, for through a short- handed acquaintance only, she has made a close study of the many interesting people who have visited the studio and who have offered valuable suggestions for the great pictures we shall produce in the future. It is by careful and patient work, but not by the exclusion of her love of fun, that she has become successful.

Steve's countenance is inscrutable except under provocation of humor. This characteristic wins favor with the audience for it is refreshing to see pictured a person who keeps all traces of gloom to himself and allows only flashes of humor and fun to illumine the screen.

Ruth Hrst went on the stage in 1924, when she was cast as the heroine in The Laughing Girl. This play has proved so successful that it is still running. In spite of her great theatrical success, Ruth still takes time to study, saying she truly enjoys it. This she proves by her diligence in studying Art. Seaman B.

After ,Iake's first appearance with the Lincoln-Douglas in The Freshman Debazer, he was immediately signed for a four year contract with the K. H. S. Producing Company. His appearances in Secretary-Treasurer of Webster-Hayne and in Manager of Baseball have strengthened his contract with this company. .lake's clever wit and humor have won for him many friends about the local colony. But it is not likely that ,lake will choose an actor's career, for during his present four year contract which ends in June, he has shown unusual managerial ability and will undoubtedly take up the career of producer.

Like Don Juan, Joe's motto is lov'em and leav'em. Through his prestige as a senior actor, Joe has attracted an aspiring freshman as another of his heroines. Daily at noon they may he seen shooting strong scenes in Hall A. Although we think Joe is at his best as a passionate lover, he himself claims that comedy is his line. Blanche Kenik 64 North Front Street Prospecl: Pratt Institute. Career: A. A., 1, 2: Audubon: Prisma, 3, 4: May Day exercises, 1. Blanche has been cast as the student in our drama, and her study has been the art of business. She has worked hard and now her efforts are to be rewarded, for she is to play the part of her choice, that of secretary. We are sure that with the perseverance, business-like attitude, and friendliness that are part of her make-up she will play a convincing role. J. Edith Kennedy Esopus Pmspecl: Secretarial College.

Ed acts best in those pictures Hlmed several miles from nowhere, but she can play any part well. She hopes that in future years she can become civilized enough to act in Sonrebozlfs Sienog or some such picture. Sylvia J. Kline 96 Hone Street Prospect: New York State College for Teachers.

Who is Sylvia, what is she, that all our swains com- mend her? Well, besides being our most convincing debater, Sylvia is the star mathematician of our class, and she excels in writing poems and English themes as well. We predict that in the next act of our drama we shall see Sylvia as a geometry teacher. V -.sw ts--e -X-' Q .s s' sxs Bali so ,s' 3 S s 1 5 s Q ' Fred Kolts 74 Foxhall Avenue Prospect: Business.

Of course you remember her in her triumph The Big Laugh. Oscar Kuntz Ulster Park Prospect: Business. Career: A. A., l, 2, 3, 41 Interclass athletics, 2, 35 Band and Orchestra, 4. Here is one of our number whose comrades say that he is one true friend!

What would our senior cast do without Hank? He and his fiddle have pepped up many a dull mind at morning assemblies when our actors have been starting their day's work. Hank is a good mixer, literally speaking. Florence Leaycraft 190 North Manor Avenue Prospecz: College. Career: A.

Win's own future seems to be promising, for she represents the much-called-for fiapper character. As she does not wish to overdo the type, her next role is to be that of the sweet and unsophisticated heroine in just a High Schoul Grad. We are quite certain that her acting will be as fine in this picture as in all her others. Philip McDonald 110 Hone Street Prospect: Fordham. Career: A.

If Mac were on the screen we should expect to see him in the rolelof the dashing hero out in the great open spaces where men are men and women are governors. Not only do we admire Phil for his une physique, but also for his manly ways. On the gridiron, the court, and the cinder path he has fought to bring honor to our school.

Judy's best pictures are the ones in which she appears proud and dignified, but when she starts to giggle, everyone just has to stop work until she becomes sober once more. They say that Julia slips out very stealthily of a night with her net and catches those great, handsome Millers that are very rarely seen. Of course, this hobby may be only a rumor: but, if true, it must be an interesting diversion. G i Y - :Z YS-Kge ov Q Y Q- -2 , Q X 5 x Eels X 1 .s 9 s s s. Ruth L.

A., 4: H1-Y Auxiliary, 43 Prisma, 43 Chairrran Prisma dance co-mmittee, 4: Smmghearl cast, 43 Senior dance com- mittee. With only a half year in the studio of K. H. S., Ruth has achieved that success which has cost most of ds four hard years of buffeting. In her case it was an unusual amount of talent and ability aside from that manifested in Slrongheart that gave her the title role in Maker al Friends. Margaret M.

A vitaphone is needed as well as a screen to do Mar- garet justice. First you see a friendly smile, then you hear a pleasant word and lo and behold! you have made a charming acquaintance of one ol K. H. S's girl athletes. She plays on the court as well as on the screen, but she doesn't play in class, Clifford Miller 54 Linderman Avenue Prospect: Tufts College.

Enter the duke. The Miller family have become the Barrymores of K. H. S. One has outshone the other till our president has reached the heights of stardom. Cliff has climbed steadily during his four year contract with K. H. S. from a tiny freshman grasping at minor parts to a proud senior mastering the title roles. Cliff's next picture must call for some strenuous acting, for we understand he spends considerable time around a certain gymnasium. Peter Minasian 75 Gage Street Prospect: Tufts College. Career: A.

Class Day Speaker. Est-ce qu'il est francais? Well, ratherg why, he is the great French actor himself. That irresistible something about Peter that makes glances linger and hearts leap, is his smile. It enchants, it mystifies, it is magic. High as our opinion has been of Peter's power of expression, it was more than justified by his acting in Smilin' Thfouahl M ss F arty-one N S as sis Qfflfs ' ev f 3 S' 'H' 5 s s s, i with A 4 A 4 F i 1 . 1 1 5 I l i s- - i 3 xvsw' m3 F orty-two wk Mary C. Mooney Eddyville Prospect: New Paltz Normal. Career: A. A., 3, 45 Prisma, 3, 4. Mary is our finest Irish star. Sometimes she takes the r0le of the serious Irish type, but we see her at her best when she plays the part of a comedienne. Whence came that Irish wit, Mary? Oh, we have it! The Irish believe in fairies and Mary is one of their favorites. Jay Molyneaux 274 Clinton Avenue Prospect: Colgate. Career: A. A., l, 2, 3, 45 A. A. Council, 4: Varsity football, 45 Captain second team football, 35 Varsity basketball, 2, 3, 45 Captain varsity basketball, 45 Varsity baseball, 45 Interclass athletics, 1, 2., 3, 45 I-li4Y, 2, 3, 45 Glee Club, 2, 35 Banking Council. 2, 3: Orchestra, 2, 35 A. A. Vaudeville, 25 Treasurer Senior Clas5 Slnmgheart cast, 4. In 1925, The Scrub Team, a very good film, was produced at Kingston. One of the cast' especially commended for his ability is now a star. His success is due to hard work, a spirit of fair play, and loyalty. The strong magnetism of his personality is a master attraction and then, of course-of course, looks have to be considered. Jay always has a difficult task in choosing his heroine. Line forms to the right, girls. The Baseball Hera of '27 was the last of his pictures. His next will be Man af ihe World. Marie Murphy 14 Henry Street Prospect: Hospital Training School. Career: A. A., l, 2, 3, 45 Girls' A. A. Council, 35 Inter- class Athletics, l, 2, 35 Prisma, 3, 4. Before we have quite finished our high school act, Marie has diligently begun studying her feature pro- duction entitled, The Nurse. We wish her success in it although we aren't planning on attending the theater in which it will be produced. Loomis Myers 41 Lafayette Avenue Prospect: Hobart. Career: A.

Last fall Bill rose to fame in the football world and earned the nickname Ten Yard Myers. He has also reached stardom in the theatrical world, the part of John in Smilin' Through being considered one of the best impersonations of the year. The general public will long remember Bill for his athletic and dramatic achievements, but his many friends will always re- member him for his big-heartedness. lfzlx st fs ,ss ss s i . ... ' . y B x Thomas Newman Marbletown Prospect: Rutgers. Career: From De Witt Clinton High School, New York, A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4. Tom has a more dignified bearing than most of his co-stars which may be caused by his prolonged sojourns in the metropolis. The atmosphere which he imbibes when playing his favorite r01e of artist may be another reason for his distinctiveness. Be that as it may, it took but a short time for the camera to portray Tom as he really is, a gentleman and an artist. Alice O'Brien ' 9 Reynolds Street Prospect: New Paltz Normal. Career: A. A., 43 Prisma, 3, 4. . We all like to watch Alice acting her part, for she does it so naturally and so well that she can make the most impossible scenario come to life. Alice seems to enjoy her work, and by her wit and gaiety she makes the studio a merry place. Margaret O'Brien Woodstock Pmspecl: Business School. Career: A. A., 2, 3, 43 Prisma, 3, 4: Typist MAROON. Peg started her movie career with a smile and has smiled right on through it. She was nicknamed Sun- shine by some admirer her iirst year at our colony and has justified this admirable sobriquet by her acting in Woodstock and A Curl and a Smile. William Okos Chichester Prospect: New York University. Career: A. A., 3, 43 Smilin' Through cast, 4. Bill is one of our country lads who knows his stuff. We should never have suspected that he would be chosen for such a part as the prosaic rejected suitor in Smilin' Through but he certainly played the part well. This proves that with a little more experience Bill will some day be playing with a stock company or The Paramount Corporation. Vulf llli YIM F arty-three Q 'ul' fl Q ,, v X- N Q Q- ' s- - -.

I Ken was able to complete his obligations to our cinema company in three and a half years, thus getting a half year's start on his new contract. While under agreement with K. H. S., his portrayals of his many parts were excellently performed. However, his best scenes were shot in the physics lab and in the math departments. Maria Olivet 96 Prince Street Pmspecl: Hospital Training School. Cafeer: A. A., 2, 3, 43 Interclass athletics, l, 23 Prisma, 2, 3: Audubon, 2. Maria has the laughing, good-natured part in our cast. On the stage of life, she is studying to portray the part of a nurse. To better prepare herself for this fine role, she is taking the leading part in The Laughing Nurse, which is being iilmed at our studio. Anna O'Reilley 209 Foxhall Avenue Pvospecg: Business. Career: A. A., 2, 3, 43 Interclass athletics, 15 Prisma, 3: 45 May Day exercises, 1. Anna contributes to our drama something everyone cannot supply. That is Irish wit. Her gay laugh is often heard echoing through the studio, and her bright, merry eyes have a contagious mirth in their depths. Anna doesn't believe in depending too much on her wit, however, so she is also seriously studying the art of stenography. Ethel Osterhoudt 23 Liberty Street Pmspecl: New Paltz Normal. Career: From Philadelphia High School for girls, 3: A. A., 3, 43 Prisma, 3, 45 Mary Lyon, 4. Ethel who played in Philadelphia for three years before she joined our company, has made us realize that it takes a great deal of thought and care to play one's part well. She studies her part with great care but is not too serious to relish the comic side of life on the lot. Her friendliness and general disposition have won her a place in our hearts as well as in our pictures. E 4 Q .ayq sf gsv s Q v X se 0 Q s s Mails- X ' .S s s . sc Mildred M. Ostrander 54 Hurley Avenue Prospecl: New Paltz Normal. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 43 Interclass athletics, 23 Prisma, 3, 4. Actions speak louder than words! Should not that be a tilm actress' motto? At any rate, it-is Mildred's' and much of her success has been accomplished by adherence to this maxim. We expected Mildred's prospect to be matrimony, but how could she tell us and live up to her motto? Helen E. Palen Stone Ridge Prospect: Seymour School of Music. N. Y. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4: A. A. Council, 13 Interclass athletics, 1, 2, 35 Captain baseball, 33 Prisma, 3, 4g Secretary Bankers' Council, 33 May Day exercises, 1, 2. Helen is one of our fascinating, light haired, blue-eyed actresses. Through her irresistible wit and charm and her musical talents she acquired a leading role and for the past three years has been playing opposite a Juniata star. Janet Phillips 21 Staples Street Prospect: New Paltz Normal. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 43 Interclass athletics, 13 M. A,, 15 Prisma, 3. 4. Janet is invaluable as a critic and adviser rather than as actress. Someday a discerning director will surely discover J anet's unobtrusive talents and potential charm which her modesty prevents her from Haunting. Caroline Port 101 Hone Street Prospect: Music Conservatory. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 43 Interclass athletics, l, 2, 3, 43 A. A. Vaudeville, 1, 23 Prisma, 3, 43 Treasurer Prisma, 43 Glee Club, 1, 2, 3, 43 Treasurer Glee Club, 33 Secreta y- Treasurer Glee Club, 43 The Japanese Girl cast, 3: The Gypsy Rouerucast, 43 Property committee operetta, 43 Property committee senior play3 Senior ring committee. This small lady is not excelled in the roles she plays, especially that of making friends. The parts she inter- prets most successfully are those of a musician and a mathematician. She has played as a lone star in this entire production, but we feel sure that the next act will bring forth a deserving hero to play opposite her. . 1 :SS Y F arty-five 3 flfx ssx' si S f S S' .s Y w Q ' v X xx X 5 N as X 50 s s s B Q 6 f N Q W w w E F arty-six I J ,J I Ellen J.

This star might he the envy of the K. H. S. studio because of her crowning glory, but her willingness and her ability to act her part make all on the set rejoice instead of envying her gift. In her leisure moments Ellen shows her ability at the piano. George W. Pratt ' 402 Hasbrouck Avenue Prospecl: Syracuse. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4: Banker, 4. George plays two roles, that of a student and that of- well, L'Allegro. When he impersonates French and Italian characters, we wish that they were spoken, because of the Hexibility of his tongue in these parts. As L'A'1egro he goes Smilin' Through his part, making merry with a troop of good friends. Frank Race 170 Henry Street Prospect: New York State School Ship. Career: A.

We have just returned laughing and happy from an interview with one of our illustrious stars. Frank, one of our star performers, has gained recognition and fame during his four year contract with K. H. S. because of his attitude not to say his philosophy of life. Because of his cheerfulness, which is of a contagious kind, Frank is known as a sure cure for the blues. He is such a jolly, carefree, benevolent fellow that we Betty has an in- spiration. Robert Rhinehart 99 Hasbrouck Avenue Prospecl: Syracuse. Career: A. A. Council, 4, Manager track, 4, Lincoln- Douglas, 1, 2: Webster-Hayne, 3, 4: M. A., 1: Glee Club, 33 Hi-Y, 2, 3, 4. An autographed picture of this famous director of Track in 1928, will be sent on request to any girl who will send twenty-five cents and a return stamp to 237 Locker Rooms, K. H. S. Please address your envelopes plainly, and be careful not to place a Cdl in his last name, as Mr. Rhinelhjart is very sensitive on this point, N. Xxx 6 O .

It is our earnest belief that Ken will always star as a teacher, The Business English Teacher being a play especially adapted to bring out his talents. Sometimes he is rather strict: at other times, rather easy going and jollyg but underneath all this lie is essentially serious. We do not believe any really successful play would be quite complete if Ken's presence were lacking. Morris Rosenzweig 46 Chambers Street Prospect: Business. Career: A. A., 2, 3, 4, Interclass athletics, 2, 3, 4. Rosie has lived up to the name that his fellow actors have dubbed him, for who after seeing his happy smile or hearing his cheery hello has not been able to act his part in the day's work better? May you ever keep things rosy, Rosie! Eleanor Saxe West Hurley Pmspecl: Nursing. Career: A.

Eleanor's dignity and poise coupled with a sparkling merriment and a genial nature have won for her the star part in The Queen of May. Her assignment to this role immediately met with a burst of public applause. All stars seem to have a hobby and Eleanor's appears to be that of a naturalist, her specialty being collecting Millers. Not so long ago she succeeded, with very little effort, in catching a long sought for specimen of this genus. We underst.and she is intending to pursue the art of nursing and it is rumored that nearly all of our studio intend to get sick. Kindly don't overwork her. Beverly Schmidt Mt.

If a picture entitled Higher Athletics were produced Bev would be the star. It's a shame that at some oi the splendid rehearsals that have been held in the Ole Chicken Coop and in the tield, we couldn't have had a camera along to film Bev at her best, as the star of the diamond and of the court.

S. film colony someday about noon, just after the dinner gong has rung, and you should hear a hearty laugh ringing down the hall, you would sit up and take notice, for the owner of the laugh is none other than our famous actor and director, Herrick Schoonmaker, on his way to dinner. His fame as an actor, as most of you know, rests upon his fine interpretation of Strong- heart, while as director of the Maroon, which book you are now perusing with so much delectation, his work speaks eloquently for itself. If you, at any time were to catch a glimpse of his face as he streaks by, you would undoubtedly nominate him as the most cheerful fellow in the colony as well as an all-round gentleman, and we of the Maroon Staff would second your nomination. Florence Mae Schussler 1 Ponckhockie Street Prospect: Kingston Hospital Training School. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 43 Girls' Athletic Council, 23 Interclass athletics, 1, 2, 33 M.

Heretofore, the lighter mood has prevailedg but she has already begun rehearsing a new picture, a more serious variation of the subject, to be called While Linen Nurse. Arthur Scott 38 West Chester Street Prospect: Post Graduate Course. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 43 Interclass athletics, 2, 3, 45 A. A. Council, 4: Student Treasurer A. A., 43 Audubon, 1, 23 Bankers' Council, 23 Hi-Y, 2, 3, 43 Slronghgarl cast, 4: Senior play publicity committee. 4: School Editor MAROON. Great Scott! Although Art went over big in Strong- hearl, we Gnd him at his best when he plays the struggling business man, trying to keep the A.A. out of debt. With the executive ability which he has shown with this company there is no doubt but that he will soon be directing his own production. After interviewing Art we find that the reason for his success is that he is never Ruthless. Isabel M. Scudder 58 Downs Street Prospect: New York State College for Teachers. Career: A.

When in Isabel's presence we feel ourselves close to royalty. Her part calls for a gracious princess and she interprets it to perfection, throwing in no small amount of intelligence, sympathy, and wit. Though never seeking the limelight, Isabel is absolutely essential to our act. ffl! S s pix S- -,QS X-X' sv 5 ' .s ' 'H .- . s s Helen D. Seeger 60 Elizabeth Street Praspecls New Paltz Normal.

Broadway has a strange fascination for Helen and will welcome her warmly, for she has the enviable ability of making and keeping friends. James Shiels Lake Katrine Prospect: Pratt Institute. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3. 4. James is a good looking chap with curly hair, who thinks a lot, but never says a great deal. Indeed, he is quiet and demure, but the Senior Class are proud of their Jimmy and expect to he still more proud of him when he realizes his ambition to become a famous reporter. Ada Verna Shultis Saint Remy Prospecl: Pratt Institute. Career: A. A., 3, 45 Prisma, 3, 4. Ada's acting is worthy of the envy and admiration of the rest of the cast. lt necessitates no conspicuous effort for her to change from the role of student to that of seamstress or mistress of the kitchen, and what a pleasant, unobtrusive way she has of playing her parts! Louis M. Siller 22 East Union Street Prosped: Cornell. Career: A. A., 2, 3, 4: Class Track, 2: Webster-Hayne 3: Audubon, 1. A vote taken recently by a number of newspaper reporters revealed that Louis Siller was considered by them to be the best dressed man in the K. H. S. colony, as well as the hardest to interview. We who know him, will verify the result, and we might add that as a good sport and fellow, Louie is not so wurst. F arty-nine w S Q S s 5. Mildred Simmons 19 Hewitt Place Prospect: Music College. Career: A. A., 3, 43 Interclass athletics, 1, 23 Glee Club, 3, 43 Prisma, 3, 43 Japanese Girl cast, 33 Gypsy Rover cast, 4. ' Mildred is liked and respected by every director because of her ready smile and quiet manner. She has never yet played the leading lady in any production but we have a feeling that in her next picture Pccheur d'Islonde she will play opposite the hero of her own choice. Ernest Smith Prospecl: College. Career: A.

A. Council, 53 Boys' Glee Club, 4. Come, see our Red Grange who has appeared in numerous productions on the football field and basketball court, where he did some marvelous acting for K. H. S. Red is now starring in a super-Iilm, entitled Broken Hearls, and is shooting many of his scenes in the corridors and about our school. ln this latest project he is having the loyal support of the maidens of K. H. S., which lends a touch of local color to the drama. Saul Sobsey 354 Washington Avenue Prospect: New York University. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4: Inter-class athletics, 3, 4: Lincoln-Douglas, 1, 23 Secretary-Treasurer Lincoln- Douglas, 2: Webster-Hayne, 3, 4. Saul is one of the few true comedians in the Senior Production Company. Although he is adept at acting his part as a student. he is often in controversies with his directors, especially in shooting historical scenes. Saul's one regret is that the motion picture is a silent drama. John Steigerwald West Salem Prospect: N. Y. U. Career: A. A., 2, 3, 4. When we see a streak of blue dash by our studio windows, we know it is John's Nash. Both he and his car are in our latest production Our Last Year, and john has proved that he has great ability. He is a member of the Eddyville fire department and if you doubt its efficiency, John will convince you with ocular evidence that your doubts are unworthy. - .

It isn't often that we find one whose character is so well portrayed by his title as Ernest's is. His aversion to talking and, on the other hand, his splendid ability to make all his actions speak, prove that he is much better adapted to the screen than to the stage. The militaristic roles which he p!ays at times brand him as one who will some day attain stardom in a feature picture on the Order of The Big Parade. Janet Story Ulster Park Prospect: College. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4: Captain basketball, 45 Inter- class athletics, 1, 2, 3, 45 Prisma, 3, 4. Janet was discovered in the East by Kingston High, but we don't know how much longer we can keep her, as the West, with those handsome cowboys, is a special attraction for her. 1t's a sure guess that wherever she goes, she will rise until she reaches the very heights of stardom. Sergio Suarez 16 Stanley Street Prospect: Pratt Institute. Career: A. A., 3. 4: Class track, 4. The scene of the hrst act of Don Sergio's life was laid in Cuba, the beautiful Pearl of the Antilles. This accounts for his present act's being filled with much dignity combined with no little mystery. The title of his act EI Senor Suarez would add charm and interest to any dramatic production: and we assure you that some day someone else will enjoy starring in La Senora Suarez, which is just as interesting, for Sergio is not selfish. .+ Fifty-one 'JIS x ,SQ S ll ff' i ff Q 4 Y 4 e VM we ff 4 Fifty-two Elsie Taylor Bloomington Prospect: Moran's Business School. Career: A. A., 2, 3, 4: Prisma, 3, 4. E1sie's roles are generally those of a smiling sym- pathetic little heroine of the type that appeals to and impresses everyone. Our colony will certainly miss her when we part and she goes to prepare herself for her de- but on life's stage as The Private Secretary. Gertrude W. Terwilliger 146 Pine Street Prospeci: College. Career: A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4: Interclass athletics, 1, 2, 3, 4: Prisma, 3, 4: Mary Lyon, 4: Hi-Y Auxiliary, 3. F Gert's best acting is done in gay parts: for she is never serious very long at a time. Her good nature is so unquenchable that she can ever hand out a smile when someone calls her Red. We commend the director for his good judgment in picking Gert for the heroine for The Knight wilh the Yellow Steed. - John S. Thompson 256 Vllest Chestnut Street Prospect: Dartmouth. Career: A.

Do you remember the Herilage of the Desert, in which Mescal plays so prominent a part? It wasn't our Mescal, but we are sure that she could have played the part to perfection. Both she and Bebe are dark, viva- cious, and full of fun. Mescal acts well the part of an efficient excutive too, for under her administration Prisma has enjoyed one of the most prosperous years since it organization. 6 4- - A vvs ss' ss' s S s E233 X .6 3 S s X 1 Max Tucker 311 Broadway Prospect: Cornell.

Here is an actor who has taken only three years and a half to prepare himself for the world's stage. His acting was not a startling success until the invention of the Vitaphone: but now we shall be able not only to see Max, but to hear him also, We are sure his years as a debater and violinist will stand him in good stead, and his success as an actor will be certain.

Gladys, if only by her presence in our midst, has led us all to strive to reproduce the best that is in us in our pictures. Although the productions Gladys prefers to star in are Ucaviare to the general. she has always had a discriminating audience of admirers who are able to appreciate her true worth in our K'.H.

A Burt personifies and cleverly acts the part of a very efficient business man. However, for relaxation he chooses the parts that call for nonsense and girls. Undoubtedly he will prove paramount in an intensely thrilling business world drama and maybe have a cle-yer little romance woven in for the play-within-the-play. Who knows? H.

Her quiet humor makes her a good friend and a very agreeable companion. John Watts 106 Highland Avenue Prospect: Dartmouth. Career: A. A.. 1. 2, 3, 43 A. A. council, 4: President A.

At a casual glance he looks the part of a villain hut on noting the twinkle of his eye we would pick him for the part of a mischievous disturber of the peace.

Here is the rare type of young man whom directors are constantly seeking, the one who can slip into any role and play it to perfection. George can play the farmer lad, the scholar, the editor, and the invalid, all equally well. He says that his next role is to he that ofa young doctor, who has just hung out his shingle. We wish him success in this new part. but we are afraid that in one way Willie is going to meet his Waterloo, for he will have patients of both sexes, and George hasn't shown any great interest in the weaker sex, though once he did get close enough to a lady to step on her toes.

No play is quite complete without Alda's starring as the athletic heroine. During the four years she has been among us, there has been no role in athletics in which she has not acted. However, Alda has shown a great inclination toward a more impressive role: and in her next picture she is to act with royalty, playing opposite a King.

Bill's assignment with the Eddyville company is his fourth OJ hero role for as many different companieS during his four years career at K. H. S. Unlike Richard Dix, Bill picks a ditferent heroine for each of his pictures3 he seems to have no trouble in finding a leading lady.

We are of the opinion that May would have out-shone Dorothy Mackaill had she had that part in The Crystal Cup, for is it not May's hobby to play the part of a boy? She is at her best when her part calls for a dual portrayal, for some know her as the quiet, attentive pupil of the class room, while other know her as the peppy tomboy of the baseball diamond. But no matter what part she plays, we know of no one that could take her place in our cast. ,. ? ' Gvwv e X Q N Q' 'R E eg has st ' s s Q s :E In Memoriam One of our beloved actors on Life's stage is missing today from among us of the K. H.

But now, though the sun has gone, the shadow of sorrow has also passed, and has given way to a perpetual rainbow, a rainbow of memory, of hope, the beauty of which will long stand as symbol to the frank., loving personality and noble character of our classmate and comrade, Rudolph Reiner.

On October seventeenth, nineteen twenty-seven, the junior Class met for the first time and elected officers for the ensuing year. IKENNETH HAPPY . . President HARRIET CRANSTON . . Vice-President lWILl9RED HEALY . Secretary ALFRED LYNCH ....... Treasurer The class has secured a beautiful red and white banner with a unique design which has attracted considerable attention, especially from the seniors. The most important social activity of the year was, of course, the Junior Prom on December twenty-first, enjoyed not only by the upper and lower class- men but also by many of the Alumni. The Junior Class boys have been prominently represented on both varsity and inter-class teams. The girls also have been interested in athletics, as shown by the fact that they have formed several basketball teams and taken an important part in the cheering sections of the games. The Junior Class has been loyal and shown the proper spirit toward the athletic activities of K. H. S. But the Juniors' ability is not confined to athletics only. They also furnished three disputants for the varsity debating squad: Sherwood Lasher, John Kinney, and Kenneth Happy. Moreover, the class of twenty-nine is fortunate in having several members of dramatic ability as was shown by their Work in Stronglzeart and The Gypsy Rover. Now as the Class of 1929, with an ever-increasing love for its Alma Mater, approaches the conclusion of a successful year in all scholastic activities, it looks forward with eagerness to the task of upholding with customary dignity the ideals of K. H. S. which senior classes have always so well maintained. Sixty-frelo r l V Sophomores The sophomores have made the plot interesting by doing the unexpected: as freshmen they organized and as sophomores they didn't! Wlhich seems to show that after all they desire to be normal. They cannot quite control their youthful bent for accomplishing the unexpected, howeverg for one of their members, Bill Schumacher, did an almost unheard of thing by earning a place on the varsity debating teamg Gordon VVatts, Frank Thompson, and John Mohr have played sellar roles in the Athletic Classic, and Howard Thomas has brought glory to his class by featuring in Higlmst Honor Roll. XV hen the need of an artist is felt at the studio, there is usually a sophomore to play the part, for it seems' that the blessing of artistic ability has been richly showered on the class. - XYhen we witness the presentation of Girls' Aflzlvfirs, we see that Sarah Lefever's team has a place in the foreground, for it has lost but one game out of the nine played so far. Viale see that the boys who won the pennant from the juniors last year, are again doing excellent work. They won the inter-class bas- ketball league championship and have contributed to every varsity team. A review of this act confirms the opinion that the sophomores are a wide- awake group possessing extraordinary talent, which is bound to bring ultimate success to them in the great drama of high school life. .

As many themes run through my head, I sigh, For sonnets each of fourteen lines must be, And who by love inspired is? Not I, Nor have the muses over-favored me. Thus I ponder for the longest time, My mind is filled with horror at a thoughtg For I forgot the special kind of rhyme, And now my time and work will come to nought. You see, the lines, a, b. b. ia should be, And I have written mine al, b, a, b. A. E. H. Freshmen This year Peter piped and the freshmen flew. They did not fly to organizing, however, as the class last year challenged them to do. Yet, in their gay, care- free wanderings many good qualities were brought forth, loyalty being one, for they had a large attendance at all the athletic contests. VVe find that the followers of Pan have an important place in the school, a balance as it were, to the scholarly severity of the upper classmen. Sixty-five vii Q ,St y , . Q La ys xx,-v gL,+ S ' 3 S.

VVe admit that the film drama has defects, some technical and some vicious in nature, but we see its many possibilities and recognize the fact that it is growing in importance as a major art. So the first reason for our choice is that the motion picture is a worthy theme. Furthermore, its usefulness in the capacity of year book theme is self- evident. Every phase of school life can be aptly represented, for all the worldls a stage and all the men and women merely players. f So, aw-are of the value of the motion picture, we have pledged ourselves, by choosing it as our theme, to promote its advancement in all its better aspects 5 to protect it from misuseg and to help realize its ultimate place as one of the most helpful and valuable contributions to education and dramatic art.

XV e could not possibly put into words what her life among us has meant these past four years. Her untiring efforts have helped many of us over the rough places of our high school careers 5 but, more than that, her personality will always live as an example and inspiration in our lives. VVe sincerely trust that she will be quickly restored to her health and strength and be able to come back to inspire and uplift the future senior classes of the Kingston High School. Thou wert our guide, philosopher, and friend. -Pope. College Material As one's senior year in high school draws to a close, it is only natural that his thoughts are directed toward a higher institution of learning. If one of the problems that presents itself at this time is greater than another. it is the question whether or not the student is fitted for college, whether or not he has the stuff in him which the best colleges now require. The first requisite of any student on entering college, although not the prime one, is that he offer evidence of the satisfactory completion of a four-year high school course or its equivalent. Next in importance is the requirement concerning the standing of the pupil in his graduating class. The changed con- ditions in the world to-day compel the colleges to make their third requirement one calling for evidence as to the moral responsibility of the student. In the questionnaires sent out by them to the principals of the high schools are included such questions as these: Is he affiliated with any church? Does he believe in obedience to law? Has he been convicted of any crime? Is he to be relied upon? Is he likely to make good in college? Since it has become an admitted fact that education without character is not only a failure but also constitutes a dan- ger to society, greater stress is laid upon this last requirement each year. The student, besides possessing these essential qualifications, should, if he wishes to make a genuine success of his college course, have attained through his years of training and wise council, a background of self reliance, initiative, and a great driving purpose, all of which have developed a resolute will capable of mastering a given piece of work. He should add to these an appreciation of life without which any education would fail in its human purposeg second, an enthusiastic spirit which is one of the means to high idealsg third, a keen desire to learng and fourth, an appreciation of the use and value of knowledge which will inspire him to the persistent application required by the college. He has also learned through these years of training that health is a first rung in the Sixty-eiglzf a . V e- ivwvs- .sv Q s Q' Q 1 sf it EE This it so s s S 1 s ski: ladder of success without which life becomes an all serious problem, and that the conduct necessary for great achievement cannot be realized apart from a pro- found love of God. Unless students realize that they must possess these qualifications, they will find that the colleges do notwant them even though they are qualified scholasti- cally, since they are lacking in those essentials which make for the best college material. And, therefore, it is most necessary that the high school student be made to consider college standards from this viewpoint. Real School Loyalty During recent years in K. H. S. we have heard a great deal of criticism of our school spirit. This criticism, however, has been limited to athletics, and has been brought to bear in particular upon the lack of support of our various teams. Evidently this criticism was deserved, and, judging from the enthusiasm displayed in athletics during the past year, it is safe to say that it has accom- plished its purpose in stimulating interest in sports. However, there is one very important phase of the term school spirit which is not generally thought of,-namely, the attitude of the students toward what is going on in school. It is easy to fall into the habit of criticising and making light of the various school activities, but it must be remembered that such an attitude destroys school pride and is not conducive to loyalty and unification among the members of the student body. Another thing which should be kept in mind is that many people know nothing whatsoever about our school except for the opinions they have formed from their occasional conversation with some of the students. For this reason every student of K. H. S. should carefully refrain from making -any remarks to outsiders which would tend to lower their respect for the school. Our school offers us many opportunities which, if we grasp them, will enable us in later years to encounter the obstacles of everyday life with a feeling of confidence in our own ability. Certainly Life is the most important game of all, a game which we must win if we are to derive the full benefit from our existence, therefore we ought to feel thankful for any assist- ance we are given that would help us make a success of life, and to say the least respect the source of that assistance. Perhaps to some extent this custom of unwarranted criticising could be alle- viated if all of us now and then would stop and consider the significance of the chorus of the Alma Mater: Alma Mater, Kingston High School, We shall never fail To respect thee, aid thee, love thee. K. H. S. all hail! all hail! Sixty-nine 01, ev S ser sr i Q i s S' Ease X As g S s g el Scholarship Can you think what your reaction might be towards an actor who appears on the stage with an utter lack of poise? How his movements seem to break the rhythm of the whole play, how discordant his words become! Now, as poise is to the actor, scholarship is to the gentleman. It is his poise. just how much of it he attains, just how devoted he is to it, decides his measure of success and satisfaction on life's stage. True, there are uneducated people who have succeeded, who have achieved greatness. But each one of these throughout his life, has missed something which no amount of renown can secure for him. He lacks the primary essentials of scholarship, those indefinable characteristics which are the marks of good breeding, a sense of surety, self-mastery and a more receptive attitude towards the finer' and more significant things of life. Scholarship is not education alone. There are educated as well as unedu- cated people who lack true scholarship, that desire for learning for learning's sake, acquired at an early age. For, unless there is the ambition as well as the ability to learn, scholarship is lacking. Scholarship is not something which can be attained in an instant. It means constant, faithful years of plugging. Its result is inconspicuous at firstg its material reward is small, but in the acquisition of scholarship one has achieved poise, that essential to the well acting of one's part in life. Thank You Through careful management last year's IVIAROON Staff had a surplus on hand after their publication had been paid for. Realizing through experience the difficulty of producing a book under cramped conditions, they decided to present the succeeding staffs with an editorls desk. We, the staif of nineteen twenty-eight, being the lirst to benefit from this gift, wish to assure the donors that already the desk has proved very helpful if not indispensable in the work of editing the NIAROON. 'Every drawer of the desk has been utilized to great advantage during the whole time that the staff has been at work. It has made our labor easier and more eficective to have a definite place for each class of manuscript and it lends a bit of dignity, too, to the staff to have a desk all its own. VVe appreciate the foresight and generosity of our predecessors, and from this good beginning we are encouraged to dream that some day there may be a NIAROON stati room. Scvcviaiy .A c 'I 'f cms sr' fs Q N s' 1 2 s' if IHZSE Q St S s S 5 E ' 2 E A Word of Advice As our last act in the theatre of K. H. S. draws to a close, many of us may forever leave the stage of learning and take our places among the more experienced players on the stage of life. It is at this time that we must think seriously of the importance of playing our parts well, whether they be majoi or minor. . Perhaps some of us may be chosen to play the roles of stars, but it is far more likely that the majority will be assigned to more or less minor characters. That, however, should not discourage us, for we are here to make of our lives the best that we can, and whether our part be large or small it behooves us to play it well. We must remember that in the drama of life, as in every other drama, if we would have a unified whole it is necessary that minor' and major parts alike be played with equal zeal and attention to detail. To illustrate our point we may take almost any machine. If one wheel or bolt is defective, usually the machine will not function properly. Knowing all this, we may see that our success and even the success of our social and economic institutions do not depend on playing a large part, but on each playing his own part, large or small, with his fellow players. Let us realize with Ben Jonson that, ln small proportions we just beauties see And in short measures life may perfect be. The Columbia Scholastic Press Association Convention Again this year the directors of the senior annual of the Kingston High School film colony felt it -advisable, in order to further improve the annual, to send three delegates from the MAROON Staff to the Columbia Scholastic Press Association Convention held at Columbia University for editors of high school and college publications. This convention was attended by more than one thousand student editors from all over the United States, who came together for the purpose of discussing the problems of editing. Editors of the prominent newspapers of the East gave inspiring talks on the solution of the problems which confront them, and were the leaders of round table discussions which were an inspiration to all who attended them. There were also helpful round table discussions in which the students themselves solved their difficulties. However, the program did not consist entirely of open meetings and lec- tures, but furnished wholesome entertainment as well. A banquet, a tour of the Seventy-one ,. V X4 are ass sr 5' 3 Q' 1 Q' 5 ' :gas r .s 0 S s Q E Q sl QE! city, and the line varsity show, Zuleika, put on at the Waldorf Astoria by the seniors of the University, added pleasure and interest to the convention. Although we feel that it was planned more for those who intend to follow up journalism, still Awe believe that coming into contact with such people as Dr. Finley of the New York Times, Mrs. Meloney of the New York Herald Tribune, and Chief Scout Executive West, and receiving the message each of them had for us, made the trip profitable, and it is unhesitatingly that we advise the staff of twenty-nine to send at least one delegate to The Press Association meetings. May 9, 1928 ' Dear Mr. Editor: I don't know whether or not you have completed the MAROON yet. If you haven't sent it to press you might like to use the little tribute by Henry Van Dyke which I ran across in the paper recently, and I think it would be a very fine thing for you to publish. I want to wish the staff and advisers the best of luck with the '28 IYIAROON. I would like to have you save me a copy. Sincerely yours, FRED CLARK Tardy Tribute Paid to Unknown Teacher' I sing the praise of the unknown teacher. Great generals win campaigns, but it is the unknown soldier who wins the war. Famous educators plan new systems of pedagogy, but it is the unknown teacher who delivers and guides the young. For him no trumpets blare, no chariots wait, no golden decorations are decreed. He keeps the watch along the borders of darkness and makes the attack on the trenches of ignorance -and folly. Patient in his daily duty, he strives to conquer the evil powers which are the enemies of youth. He awakens sleeping spirits. ,He quickens the indolent, encourages the eager and steadies the unstable. He communicates his own joy in learning and shares with boys and girls the best treasures of his mind. I-Ie lights many candles which, in later years, will shine back to cheer him. This is his reward. Knowledge may be gained from books, but the love of knowledge is transmitted only by personal contact. No one has deserved better of the republic than the unknown teacher.-Henry Va-n Dyke. Seventy- two rs ,N-so .X-' Q 5 s xN .SQ 5 H. gg ,l p N N Can We Repay? An inventory of our ability preparatory to entering the world outside of the school room necessitates asking ourselves the question, How much have we benefited by the opportunities offered us? Time, no doubt, will provide the best answer since the use we make of our lives and their influence upon others can not now be estimated. However, what we do know with certainty is that the opportunities afforded us at Kingston High School have been many and of a very helpful nature. It has been a privilege to attend school in so beautiful a building. Some of us can remember a feeling as we entered that caused us to straighten up and look up, a feeling of pride that this was to be our school. Surely the Board of Education of the city of Kingston had a broad vision and a keen interest in the future welfare of the youth of Kingston and Ulster County in erecting this beautiful edifice. After becoming students, we were not disappointed and the conviction that we must measure up to something higher still grips us. As the system under which we were to work unfolded, we found that we were a part of a big m-achine, whose satisfactory working depended somewhat upon us and that it permitted us to be comfortable and happy while shaping us for the life outside of school, so long as we obeyed the laws enacted for the successful operation of that system. It has been a wonderful privilege to have as teachers men and women of such ability and high character, teachers in the true sense of the word-teachers who appealed to the good in the student and made him feel their genuine interest in him and who were always ready both during and after school hours to aid the student who needed it. Nor was it to lessons alone that their efforts were given, but also to character building, impressing upon us the value of finer qualities and high ideals by the example of their own lives. The atmosphere of the school has been conducive to good fellowship and cooperation, which are factors of primary importance in the successful life. There comes to many of us at this time a feeling that if we had the four years to live over, we could do more to make the work of the principal and the teachers easier, but since that is not possible we have resolved to make the most of our lives, and thus prove to them that we have appreciated deeply the noble lessons they have taught usg and we close our last act in the K. H. S. studio with the hope that this will bring th-at happiness into their lives which is the reward of true service.

In several different work-shops, English classes, and homes, are actors in the drama-thinking-waiting-hoping. Then come winged thoughts from some place in infinity.

Battles JUNIOR-SENIOR SHORT STORY CONTEST First Prize jerry coughed harshly, a short racking cough that shook his wasted frame terribly. Vliith a feeble hand he pulled the blanket closer around him and settled back in his wheel chair with a sigh. This damp spring air wasn't doing his gassed lung any good. Queer perversity of nature which decreed him endless torture! He never could manage to be quite comfortable. If it wasnit his lungs, it was that piece of shrapnel that the doctors feared to remove. They said he was recovering, but Jerry could detect easily the note of doubt in the surgeon's voice. It would be a blessing if he didn't recover, but the thought of a slow death like this made him cling more tenaciously to the slender thread of life. And death was an unknown quantity, while there were a few things in life that made even one like his worth living. Thank God, he had never been a coward, and did not intend to be one now. How different it was to face moving death on the field of battle! The warm sun would help him fight. Poets heralded spring as the symbolization of new life and hope. Jerry smiled wryly at this thought and then stared inoodily at the grim walls of the war hospital, its harsh outlines only partially softened in the glow of a late sunset. The only things that spring revived in him were numerous aches and pains which reminded him that he had been a sacrifice on the altar of democracy. And the old heartache was still there. , It had been eight long years since that blossom-scented day when he had kissed Helene goodbye and marched proudly off to war. He could see her yet, a picture of dainty loveliness with misty eyes mutely expressing the hope of his return. Sezlmxty-si.r Q - - v . ' -1,71 'Q xxx' si' Q 3 S VH ai E Q ,S 3 S s Q. He had returned, but not marching among his fellows in the thinned ranks. Of course, she had been sensible in not burdening herself with a cripple, but it had hurt when she married that rich profiteer so soon afterw-ards. He had heard she was very happy. Happiness of that sort could never be for him. Oh, well, he wasn't so badly off as that fellow in Ward Three who had been horribly hurt in smothering a bomb that fell among his comrades. Poor chap! A Distinguished Service Cross didn't help a man support a wife and two kiddies. Jerry stared wistfully at the trim legs of a smart surgeon who walked past in company with a pretty nurse, and his fingers wandered to the vacant spot beneath his blanket where his right leg should have been but for the accuracy of an enemy gunner. He turned his gaze away, out over the Hudson whose tranquil waters were absorbing the blood-red tint imparted by the rising moon. It reminded him of the Marne on that fateful day when his best pal had been killed. He sank into a dull apathy and idly thought of other comrades who mouldered underneath the scarlet poppies. There was young Thorne, a junior at Harvard when he enlisted. The Tommies all thought him crazy because he kept repeating football phrases as he charged the bristling lines of steel. A white cross marked his grave in the Argonne. Curse the sniper who got one of the bravest fellows who ever went over the top! He remembered Izzy and Sven, that oddly assorted pair who had gone down in la bayonet charge onga machine gun nest. Then there was Scotty, the fighting Highlander, who had iinished eleven men before he went down. And there were others. Pathetic in their way were many who still lived-blind Tommy who still thought of Nannette at Belleu, and Jules, who was making a living as the armless wonder in a circus. War is Hell! Sherman once said, but the aftermath of conflict for some is infinitely worse. No one but ra soldier knows the horror of old war memories brought back-the visions of blood-splashed trenches, bursting shells, gleaming steel, and above all, silent, still figures who have given their all for their cause. Sweet strains of soft music aroused jerry from his revery and he moved close to an open window from which the sounds emanated. A glimpse into the lighted room beyond showed him several soldiers grouped around listening to the evening radio program. Galloway, head bandaged like an Egyptian mummy, sat tuning the set. Others were grouped around him in various attitudes of attentiveness. Smith leaned his emaciated body on the pillows of his cot. Brown smoked a cigarette idly, the wreathing smoke forming a ghoulish frame for his shot-torn S even ty-sewn 'Q fa7Q sr Ns- s Q Q x N Y V 1 X ,Q 1 Q A Q Q , s W was X .Q s s m e A E e '- features. Allen, nervously lingering the buttons on his shirt with his one arm, made way for a nurse who escorted the blind Tommy. There were many others, relics of virile manhood, their glories long since sung and forgotten, many of them still waged war against death. Few cared to think of the late horror, but all around was evidence to remind them hourly of it. It certainly had been a great scrap. Suddenly the tones of a sports announcer rolled from the loud speaker, breaking in upon their low-voiced discussion. Jerry could hear it plainly from where he sat. Friends of the radio audience, to-night we are assembled at the ringside to witness the most important Battle of the Century-- The listeners leaned closer, eagerly, expectantly.

And what a juicy bit of gossip for the gossip world of Metford! Ol' Dave, the mystery of the village, who lived by himself in an old log cabin near the creek- The waiting assembly moved restlessly. Recovering himself, Hank moved about his work with his eyes gleaming. To whom should he tell this choice bit? No one here, to be sure, for that would look too suspicious, too much like tampering with the mail. But he must tell it to someone quickly, or shout it to the-ah, here was just the one. For in through the door merrily tripped Mrs. Frasden, unchallenged queen of Metford's gossip-world. ' Any mail f'r me, Hank? Hank dealt out her portion of the correspondence for the day. Say, did y' hear what I heard about old Dave? he queried, every feature betraying intense excitement. ' S The woman, sensing something important, at once answered in the negative. VVal', I heerd that Ol' Dave had a sweetheart once what he left in the lurch an' he's asked her to come back t' him. The words poured forth in a torrent, like surplus steam from a boiler. It took ten whole seconds, the longest she had ever kept quiet on such an occasion, for the astonished woman to digest this mentally. It that so? she at last managed to gasp, and without a word further, she turned and sprinted for the street. Upon hastening through the doorway, she came in violent contact with her bosom friend, the vice-queen of gossip, Mrs. Berton, whose rotund figure received the best of the argument in this case, with the result that Mrs. Fresden sat down heavily. Not daunted in the least, she leaped to her feet and omitting the usual formalities, plunged into her story. Soon, the two excited women hurried toward a nearby house. The next day it was generally known throughout the village that Ol' Dave had run off with a girl in the Follies and that his former sweetheart had threatened to kill him if he did not return. Someone ventured the theory that Ol' Dave had been thrown into prison and escaped and had sought this secluded place to hide from the law. But one thing was clear, Ol' Dave had made up, and his sweetheart was coming back. At last one day the person in question arrived in the mail car. Since the mailman obligingly conveyed her right to Ol' Dave's door, they had only a fleeting glimpse of her as she passed. But one look w-as enough! For she was fat! They saw billows of fat, and she seemed to have a very dark complexion. Say, gasped Ed Berton, if that's gonna be Ol' Dave's wife, he's makin' a bigger mistake than I did marryin' you, Kate. Mrs. Berton quelled him with a glare. Eighty-one 6' , ' I 1 :Q YS xxssx oxw' Q S Q 1 Q N : N ia 63 .E f X ' Q S L 5, Days passed quietly in the little village, except for an ever growing query: When was Ol' Dave going to get married? For not a sound had come from the little cabin that would have indicated the coming event. So Mrs. Frasden could contain herself no longer, and on the pretense of borrowing some sugar, she entered the cabin and found the old man seated in a corner contentedly smoking his corncob. Have a cheer, he gestured, as she entered. Came to borry some sugar, she held out a quart measure. Hey, Alice, get the lady some sugar, he shouted into the next and only other room and the subject of all the interest came lazily waddling into the kitchen, amid loud protest from the boardsiunderfoot. When she had disappeared to obey the old man's command, the visitor inquired hesitatingly: VVho-who's that, anyway? Then, finding the old man looking at her peculiarly, she hastened to explain her inquisitiveness. Well, we-they all thought you 'n' her was goin' to git married, she blurted out. The old man started. , Huh, he grunted slowly, then as if he had just fully realized what she had said, he burst into a loud gale of laughter. Say, he at last managed to get out, where did you get that idea? Again he relapsed into a fit of laughter during which the visitor sat, a perfect study in amazement. Well,' he chuckled finally, I'l1 tell ye all about it. And again he chuckled. Alice Hazelton here is one o' those civilized Injuns, an' when I lived out'n the great open spaces, I had her f'r a cook. But we had a leetle argument about somethin' and as all Injuns are touchy, she left, an' later I moved t' the east. Wal, I wanted someone around agin, so I writ her, an' she come here t' cook f'r me agin. But that's too-Haw, haw. l And' when the astonished Mrs. F rasden had taken a somewhat hurried leave, the old man still sat in his chair, shaking with chuckles. g ' ROGER HALL, 1930 q On Escorting Girls Home To indulge in this usually pleasing pastime, one must be at some affair whence he can escort the damsel. The manner of inquiry -as to whether the person in mind will accompany you or not is an art in itself. Above all, one must be nonchalant-ignite a Murad if need be. Extreme nervousness has no place in a situation of this type, while alertness and speed inoutclassing possible rivals is a prime. requisite.

It was inevitable that it should. The State had proclaimed that all teachers must now consent to be taught by the pupils. For, did it not seem probable that the students were quite capable of doing this very thing when they all succeeded in passing their exams with such excellent marks? Kingston High was not slow in following out the order. The entire faculty was brought together and marched very sedately to Room Seven, which had formerly been Miss Cordes' room. Roll call was taken and no one was found absent. There they sat, tense and expectant, not knowing what was in store for them, and yet wearing that self-confident, superior smile which teachers will assume now and then to let us know that they are probably the most well- informed people on earth. The MAROON Staff had been appointed as teachers. It was thought that they were most capable of performing so tremendous a task as to enlighten the Faculty on any points which were rather vague. Assembly was called, and after a few short announcements concerning meet- ings which they were requested to attend, Mr. Stine led the singing in a very able and creditable manner. The songs which they sang were, The Battle Cry of Freedom, and Cana Little Child like me, which were entered into very enthusiastically. Mr. Riedel seemed rather restless and leaned over to whisper something to Mr. Dunbar, but the Editor-in-Chief arose very majestically and shouted: Quiet! I want it quiet in this room ! Mr. Riedel meekly obeyed orders and did not cause any disturbance for the rest of the day. Then the questions were asked. The first to be called upon was Miss Noone. She was asked to spell, define and pronounce concentrate, and give her authori- ties for the said pronunciation. This she did with great ease and rapidity and received an Excellent from the Literary Editor, who had asked the question. Mr. Paul was then asked to prove the following simple problem: Suzanne Bliss and ther little brother are together twenty-seven years old. One is two times as old plus one year as the other was when he was one-fifth as old plus one year as the one will be when the other is three times as old plus one year. How old are they? He had to retire in disgrace, as he was unable to solve it. The Joke Editor told him to come in after school to have some of the basic principles explained and then perhaps he would have a more extensive knowledge on the subject.

Miss Hussey was called on next. She was asked to read some poetry, which she did in a truly eloquent manner. This ended the class for the morning as noontime had approached much faster than usual. Miss Monroe and Miss Schnitzler prepared the lunch and achieved com- mendable results. The food which they prepared was both tempting and delicious and everyone enjoyed it greatly. As the afternoon session wasgabout to begin, Miss Walton was noticed talking to Mrs. Norwood and seemed to be protesting something. For the third time that day the Editor-in-Chief arose in wrath and ordered Miss Walton to remain after school for twenty nights and write I must not talk in school. After this slight interruption the recitations continued serenely until about five minutes to three, when a great commotion arose in the hall. Mr. Van Ingen rushed in just as the bell rang to end the day's session. VVhat Mr. Van Ingen rushed in to say will ever remain a mystery, as Sir Alarm Clock awakened me then from a land of dreams and happiness to a land of reality where teachers dwell, and always will dwell, in authority. MARY V. CLARKE, 1929 Gossip's Waterloo FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE PRIZE SHORT STORY The usual hum of voices filled the rough room that served as post office for the little village of Metford, as the few personages present waited for their daily ration of mail. Hank Dart, the postmaster, slowly and methodically stamped each outgoing missive, preparatory to tossing it into the mail sack for the waiting and all-impatient mail carrier. He was about to drop the last letter into the sack, when he noticed that it had opened. - H-m-m, he muttered, insecurely sealed, and a crafty light stole into his eyes. For was not this letter concerning someone else in the village, and therefore lawful game for the gossip-hunters? Turning his back to the gaping audience, he drew the paper from the envelope, and perused the following note: Dere Alice: I am awful lonely hear, an' I wish you wud come back. Forgive me about that last time and I think we will get along line. Yours truly, DAVID RATTON Eighty 4 ' ' I Y fn rs 1+-' eds' Q S Q' ff- V X I N A .3 N .

Perhaps you pass a confectioner's or a like establishment and pause for a bite to eat and something sweet. Ah! The ecstasy of consuming good food--not merely light refreshments but wholesome, appetizing meals! The charm of a 'tastefully prepared dish is like the essence of a rare old perfume. Speaking of fragrances, what odors are more satisfying than those emanating from the domicile of a good cook? Expectation is half the delight of a good dinner, the fulfillment thereof is a great pleasure, but the enjoyment is not complete until time dims the memory. There are meals both good and bad, but bad dinners have no place on this terrestrial globe and should be relegated to depths unknown. They are the gall and vinegar of an otherwise milk-and-honey existence. We remember the Pilgrims because they instituted -a well-known feast day which has inspired delicious inventions in the culinary line. What -a rapturous feeling it is to lean back from a lightened board and contemplate the smiling-and sometimes smudged faces of contemporaries who have also enjoyed the carnage! Appreciation of a banquet is not hesitancy on the part of the consumer, but an Epicurean delight that holds good cooking as a boon to mankind. However, actual gluttony is taboo. Certainly the sense of taste was created to be enjoyed, but the internal man should- not be over- worked, for the horrors of indigestion are numerous, and often include d0ctor's bills. A well-assembled course should not be like the jerky polygot of an old time jazz band, but should be as the well timed soothing symphony of a good concert orchestra. Picture an entree of some delicious concoction struggling under the name of soup. Then a couple of squabs or broilers done to a heavenly turn with all the details fore and aft would not be amiss. A luscious triangle of lemon or apple pie done a la mother-used-to-make would help fill up the corners. You who delight in ice cream special combinations can easily understand and aptly form conceptions of your own perfect menu. - I think, young man, that you had better go back to the business of escorting this young lady home, or you will have but a short time to linger on the porch.

JUNIOR-SENIOR SHORT STORY CONTEST Second Prize Mrs. Vanderlip was indignant. I can't understand it, Your Honor, it's quite beyond me. The idea of this officer's saying that last week he arrested my niece for speeding. My niece has been at Bryn Mawr, ha.sn't been home at all during the Easter vacation, and furthermore, has no car. How, I should like to know, could she be arrested for speeding? Judge Landis attempted to assuage the woman's rufiied feelings. Oh, I'm sure, Mrs. Vanderlip, that we shall be able to clear the matter up satisfactorily. But we must have justice, too. Officer Arnold, perhaps you will tell us your part of the story. Officer'Arnold stepped forward. I-Ie was a stolid-looking man, whose face now bore that rather painful expression common to the overscrupulous. It's just this way, Your Honor, I'm an officer of the law, I am, and I aims to perform my duty. Last Friday afternoon I was patrolling the road around Tarrytown. .Suddenly down the road towards me I sees a young whirlwind coming. A yellow streak flashes past, is gone. As soon as I collects my wits, I wheels my motorcycle around and starts off after that yellow cloud. Well, Your Honor, I've been on the force twenty years now, but that was the toughest chase I ever had. I got my man though-woman, I mean. Down near I-Iillside, I catches up to the roadster. A girl was driving it-a red-headed girl. I beg your pardon, Mrs. Vanderlip interrupted. Your Honor, my niece's hair is of a Titian shade. Does this not prove that the young lady was not my niece? The judge sighed. It was rather an odd case. Your Honor, the officer continued, I reckon I can tell red hair when I see it, and- Omit the description of the young lady, Ofiicer, and finish your account. Eighty-four QVQ +ve el' Q ' ' 3 Q' Q ,S 3 S S 5, I VVell, let me see- Officer Arnold wrinkled his brow in his effort to recall each detail of the story. As I said, I catches up to the young lady after she's gone about ten miles at seventy an hour. I orders her to slow up and drive to the side of the road. She smiles at me, and says it will be a pleasure. I asks her if she knows she's been making seventy miles an hour, and she says she didn't think that the old bus had it in her. I asks her then why she has been speeding, and she-well, Your Honor, she said a rather queer thing there. What was it? queried the judge. She smiles at me, gentle-like, and says, 'Perhaps that little poem of Shakespeare's-or is it Browning's P-will answer that question, There's some- thing in the air, that's new and sweet and rare,-it's spring! What can I do for you, officer? ' 1 I gives her a ticket then and asks her name. She says she's Charlotte Vanderlip and lives at one hundred twelve Riverside Boulevard. I think that's about all, Your Honor, except that I warned her to be in court this morning and told her you was strict on speedersf' The door of the court room opened. A slim young girl with flaming hair entered quickly, a smile on her face as she caught sight of the stern-looking judge. The smile widened, rippled into a laugh. The girl ran forward and threw her arms around the judge's neck. Dad, darling, it's simply marvelous to see you. Isn't it the most devastating thing that I should be late for my first court appearance? I'll never forgive myself. But it's just too funny for words-my being arrested for speeding. Jane, the judge's voice was stern, explain yourself at once. Dad, let me laugh first. The joke's on you. Yes, it is dear, don't look so surprised. Give me time and I'll explain how I came to be Charlotte Vanderlip. You remember, Dad, last year you read that awfully interesting story about a valet who often masqueraded as his master, the king? You said at the time that it was quite possible for one person to masquerade as another and get away with it. Do you remember that I said it was impossible, that the imposter would soon be found out? Then I offered to bet you one hundred dollars that if I ever attempted to the best of my ability to masquerade as another I should be found out within two weeks. You took me up on it. Remember, Dad? A twinkle came into the judge's eye. One hundred, was it? Yes, I remember. Go on with the story. Well, Dad, down at Bryn Mawr all the girls noticed a resemblance between Charlie Vanderlip and me. Oh, we weren't twins by any means, but we were both about the same size and had the same red hair. When the Easter vacation came a bright idea struck me. Why shouldn't I try out that bet? VV hen I sug- gested this impersonation to Charlotte she beamed with enthusiasm at the idea of a lark so unique and different. Charlie was to spend her vacation as Jane Eiglzfy-five z- 1 k . 1 fa rs v,o' ,xv Q S e 1- S' N I N E523 X .s 3 s s X ' t Landis, and I was to be Charlotte Vanderlip. So you see, Dad, when I was arrested for speeding, I had to give Charlie's name, and, you also see, Dad, that since my identity was found out within two weeks, you owe me the sum of one hundred dollars. Quite right, jane g I agree with you that you've won the bet. First, though, I want to settle a few things. Understand, Officer Arnold, my daughter's hair is generally known as Titian, though it is red when the sun shines on it. Second, -pay attention, Jane,-the amount of your fine for speeding is-exactly one hundred dollars. Oh, judge, Jane murmured. NVINIFRED A. MCCUTCHEON, 1928 The Joys of Collecting Essfxv CONTEST l First Phze Have you ever collected books? Then surely you have a real treat in store, for no more fascinating hobby exists. WV hen, after taking a geometry, Latin, and French test you arrive home tired and disgusted to find that the mail has brought you a book for your collection, you no longer feel that life is a vale of tears. And there are so many kinds of books to collect, beautiful books printed in limited editions at private presses, first editions of the classics, if you have the money, modern first editions, and association items. Fine volumes are worthy of the zeal of any collection. Some of these books are first editions, exquisitely printed on soft, handmade paper and bound in boards or fine leather. They are a joy to handle and usually a joy to read. It is surpris- ing what added pleasure one gets from reading a well-printed book. T-ake for example, the first edition of James Branch Cabell's M uric from Behind the Moon. It was printed in a limited edition on handmade paper. Bound in black and silver boards, it might well grace a millionaire's library. Then the story-Cabell is always delightful and he is at his best in this story. But, alas! There were more collectors desiring them-I happened to be one of those unfortunates--than there were copies. Now it is almost impossible to obtain the book. I envy the person who owns a copy. A year ago it could be bought for six dollars-now it is a good investment at thirty. But books with interesting associations give the greatest satisfaction. Who would not be delighted to have in his library, as one collector has, a copy of the first edition of Francis Thompson's Hound of H eafvetn with the inscription To the Meynells with the love of their friend Francis T. ? Francis Thompson was a young doctor, unable to make -a living at his profession 3 but he wrote beautiful Eighty-six -P2 'S as-X' Q Q v e' X Ns . SX X 5 N 721922 .s 9 s 1 s Q poetry, which was rejected again and again by the magazines. An opium addict, Thompson became more and more degraded. At last Mr. Meynell, himself an author, came across some of Thompson's poetry. Both he and his wife were delighted with it, and through their influence Thompson gained the fame and financial reward he deserved. But he was unable to enjoy it long, for, with a constitution weakened by drugs, he soon died. The Meynells were beside him until his death, trying to help him. The end of his life was made happy by kindness and encouragement of the Maynells who stood by him tll1'Ollgl'l his trials and suffering. And so this book, a memento of a beautiful friendship is one of the finest association items obtainable. , Then there is that copy of Coventry Patmore's Sclccfvd Poems inscribed, From the Author, and bearing the legend, Robt. Louis Stevenson, his book. On several pages Stevenson has written comments on the poetry. Or would you prefer a copy of the hrst edition of joseph Conrad's Typhoon, inscribed To R. C. with the love of his friend J. Conrad U? Such books would enrich the finest libraries. Then, too, there is the first edition you have wanted so long. VVhat hopes you have had when you looked for it in a catalogue, what sorrow when you discovered a copy but could not afford it 5 how eagerly you awaited a reply when you had written to a dealer inquiring for a copy, and at last what joy when the book finally came! Could it really be yours at last? You will always value it, get new pleasure every time you open it. Sometimes it is possible to persuade an author to inscribe one of his first editions. VVhen you have done that you have really cut your collecting teeth, for it is an achievement worthy of a Carnegie Medal to persuade one of the falzlolfs authors to inscribe one of his books-and the great authors are the only ones Worth bothering with. It is almostimpossible to get Sir James Barrie to inscribe a book, but if you can-what joy is yours! You can look down upon all but a few book collectors, for you are not only a collector but a fine hunter and a great diplomat as well. You would need the cunning of Satan himself to persuade George Bernard Shaw to inscribe a book. But, if one could, such books would be well worth the effort spent to have the author inscribe them. Autograph collecting is the finest indoor sport I know of. You must cer- tainly use your brains to get worth-while autographs. Almost any author will sign, or have his secretary sign a card for you, but such autographs are hardly worth having. Autograph letters are especially fine if you can get the author to discuss one of his books. Then you have a treasure that cannot be surpassed except by an original manuscript, and the latter is for the very wealthy collector. To a book and autograph collector nothing makes more fascinating reading than rare book catalogues. Such catalogues are the universal panacea for the true collector: they will cure his headache more quickly than an aspirin tablet and will soothe his nerves sooner than the best nerve tonic on the market. V Eighty-seven f- - 9 l' .j2'Q is as Q 3 Q Q 1 .5 5 Basis it .S Q S s S ' s slsi sl 'EE There are a number of fine books on this branch of collecting. The A. Edward Newton books are classics of this type. The fact that a person cannot afford expensive books should not prevent him from this fascinating kind of hunting. The poor collector is more to be envied than the wealthy one, for he must plan and save so long before buying a. book for his collection that it is doubly precious when he acquires it. And if you succeed in getting some famous person's autograph yourself, it will mean a great deal more to you than if you had bought it.

TOMS My Ludicrous Experience With an Edible Bifvalve HUMoRoUs SKETCH CONTEST First Prize An edible bivalve, or to be more specific an oyster, seems a trivial object upon which to center one's attention, I supposeg but if you would believe me, its diminutiveness certainly belies the havoc it may wreak should occasion offer. Anyway, I shall recount my tale and permit you to judge for yourself the veracity of my statement. It happened this way. One evening when my family was so disposed we dropped in at a nearby restaurant and ordered a shore dinner. The first items Eigh ty-eight Q , W, -- ,V . . .- X ,xx Q 5 5 x . mga Q .s 0 s s 5 ' E S on the menu which served to stimulate my salivary glands were the appetizers, from which I, to my subsequent regret, selected oysters. During the time which elapsed while the waiter was procuring our order, I glanced around and ascer- tained that the place was pretty well filled, especially the adjoining tables. In what seemed an incredibly short time, that is, for a restaurant, the waiter had placed our orders before us, and I began to scrutinize my oysters very minutely. There were six of them, each recumbent and tenaciously fastened to its respective shell. In the center of the plate was the cocktail sauce and on the side the cus- tomary slice of lemon. XVithout further ado, I commenced the preliminary opera- tion of squeezing a little lemon juice on each oyster. Then, after prodigious exertion, I managed to extricate the first luscious morsel from its reluctant shell and forthwith doused it in the awaiting cocktail sauce. After a moment's sub- mersion I removed it and, with a dexterous twist, maneuvered it into my buccal aperture. No sooner had it touched my esophagus than it started a series of gymnastics that would have put to shame even the most experienced acrobat. First down, then up, then to the side, and so on in rapid succession, without the slightest semblance of an attempt at procrastination. In the meantime 1ny lineaments had become somewhat distorted, my ears bulged, Amy eyes were dis- tended, and I was faintly aware, although the tenseness of my predicament obviated any degree of certainty, that I was gasping. Then a convulsive shudder and the deed was accomplished, for the mollusk had safely ensconsed itself in the interior of my abdomen. I-Iowever, the worst was yet to come. A few sup- pressed giggles from the adjacent tables showed me only too well that my pre- dicament had not passed unobserved. My physiognomy became overspread with a temporary erythema and a caloric efifulgence. I For the curious or those desiring a technical elucidation of the aforesaid phenomena, I can only say that it was engendered through paresis of the vaso motor filaments of the facial capillaries, whereby being divested of their elasticity, they were suffused in a radiance ema- nating from an intimidated praecordia. ' , Undaunted by the result of my protracted tussle with the Hrst oyster, I valiantly attacked the second with an audacity that surprised even myself. To my utter amazement, it slipped down my throat with a serenity and propriety that befitted such a delicacy. The antithesis was too extreme. Three, four, five, and six followed immediately. The taste was exquisite. My complacency was unbounded. At last, I had subdued the oyster. This, my friends, is the story of my first experience with an edible bivalve, and having been endowed with a magnanimous spirit, I desire at this time to pass on to you such a delicious aliment. May I exhort you not to become dis- couraged if you fail in your first attempt, but taking my case as an example, to persevere. Remember that you will be amply repaid.

B g 5 E Doctor Bell On November tenth, Doctor Bell of St. Stephen's College speaks to the students of Kingston High School on education. After telling us something about St. Stephen's College, he says that the purpose of our education is to teach us to make the most of our lives, that no school or teacher can educate usp we educate ourselves. There are four things, he points out, that our education should do for us if it is to be successful. It should make us a little of an artist, a little of a scientist, a little of a mystic, and a little of a philosopher. Charlotte De Hajak December eighth Miss Charlotte de Hajak, a Hungarian student at Vassar College, speaks to Kingston High School girls about Hungary and the girls of Hungary. Miss de Hajak traces the development of her nation, a liberty-loving people who obtained their lirst constitution in 1222 and constantly fought against the Hapsburgs for their liberty. Hungary now has a kind of democratic govern- ment. although it is really a kingdom. Miss de Haj ak assures us that the girls of Hungary are very much like the girls of this country in some respects, such as bobbed hair and mode of dress. The greatest ditterence between American and Hungarian girls is that the Hun- garian girls are not so fond of sports as we are. Doctor Akagi On December fifteenth, Doctor Akagi, a Japanese professor, speaks about the relations between the United States and Japan, giving the following view of the subject: ' To-day we are facing the New Pacific Era predicted by Roosevelt. 1VVe are beginning a new basis of contact with the East, personal and individual. The solution of the problems of the Pacific rests on the shoulders of the younger generation because the older generation has failed. If we establish this contact with the East now, we shall build the basis of future friendly relations, the surest prevention of war on the Pacific. The only way in which these problems can be solved is in a Christian way, for by friendly relations we can make the Pacific a bond of friendship between Japan and the United States as the Christ of the Andes is a pledge of peace betwen Chile and Argentina.

Professor Myers emphasizes the usefulness of the forests and the great need for reforestation and planting of new forests on what is now waste land. He ends by urging us to waste no chance to encourage forest planting. Reuben Schrum On February ninth Reuben Schrum, chaplain on board the President's yacht, the Mayflower, speaks to us of the need of faith in our lives. He says that Abraham Lincoln personified and illustrated the fact that a man can get to the top, however humble his circumstances may be. He illustrates the faith of those in power by an intimate glimpse into the life and character of the first lady of the land. On board the Mayflower one day Mr. Schrum was standing near Mrs. Coolidge when a Chinese steward came and asked her at what time to serve tea. As she looked at her watch, she said to Mr. Schrum, I want you to see the inscription on this watch. Taking the watch, he found engraved there: To Calvin's mother, with love from his classmates. 1925. Mrs. Coolidge told him, It is just about a year since my son died, but I do not feel that my boy is very far away. The longer we live, the more I am convinced. Mr. Schrum told us that he hoped that in the forming of our lives we might take our example from those who -are higher up and have proved that there is something to it all. A Real, Lifve Commissioner In ,a special assembly Mr. Service introduces Dr. Lewis VVilson, assistant commissioner of education of New York State and director of vocational and extension education. Mr. VVilson arises and begins to speak. His pleasant voice, engaging man- ner, and Hne face immediately win everyone's attention. He explains how the tremendous developments in science and its increased importance to civilization make education imperative for success. This need for education has been answered by the growth of many new educational courses in both science and art.

He closes by reminding us that satisfaction cannot come from choosing a vocation for its monetary value alone, and that The college used to train young people for leisureg V Now it trains them for life work. l Miss Bain On April nineteenth Miss Bain speaks about regard for law. She empha- sizes the fact that it is only through law that we can have liberty, for there are many people who would have no regard for the rights of others if it were not for the laws. A law is passed only by the consent of the majority and there- fore an individual's disapproval of a certain law gives him no right to disobey it. Obedience to laws is one requisite for attainment in this Land of Opportunity. ' Captain Steiner On May third Captain Steiner, a chaplain in the United States Navy, tells us many interesting facts about life aboard one of the large vessels in the navy. He says that' it takes twelve hundred men to man a medium-sized battle- ship and that activities on board ship necessarily have to be many and varied in order to accommodate this large gathering of men. He then tells us some- thing about how the ship is equipped for warfare, illustrating his point by saying that if one of the ships could be brought up into the Hudson as far as Kingston, it could easily shell Woodstock or High Point. Doctor Day On May the ninth, Doctor Day gives us a sketch of the development of hospitals beginning with the work of Florence Nightingale during the Crimean VVar. She tells of the establishing of training schools for nurses, first in England and then in the United States, until now we have seven thousand hospitals in this country. In 1921 Hospital VVeek and Hospital'Day were instituted in this country, and Hospital Day is now observed on May twelfth because it is Florence Nightingale's birthday. Dean Distler Dean Distler, chairman of student Welfare work at N. Y. U., and a group of talented friends visit our morning assembly. The performance of Goss at the Xylophone, with piano accompaniment by Hughes, pleases all and Principal Van Ingen consents with a smile to a fourth selection. Dean Distler gives -a short but impressive talk emphasizing the fact that, although a college education helps very much in life, it is not absolutely essential. He stresses the point that one should not become discouraged because he cannot 'go to college, but rather develop the abilities he has to their best use. Dan Ecker, Secretary of the New York University Y. M. C. A., speaks a few words, and Frank Briante, although he only smiles, receives a lion's share of applause.

The theme of the play is young love versus superannuated prejudice, with the former finally winning out. John Carteret, whose fiancee had been shot on their wedding eve by an embittered rival, Jeremiah Wayne, is prejudiced against Ieremiah's son Kenneth, who loves his niece, Kathleen. Carteret, seeing that Kathleen is likely to be swayed by her love for Kenneth, tells her the story of the death of Moonyeen Clare, his sweetheart. Carteret's story of fifty years before, as portrayed in Act Two, olfers a striking contrast to the rest of the play in not only dramatic action but costume and atmosphere as well. The old man's tragedy, accompanied by the curls and crinolines, the high hats and the seriousness of a bygone era, is remarkably set off by the smart comedy and modern dress of nineteen fourteen and nineteen nineteen. The author must have had our characters in mind when he wrote this excel- lent play, for the cast, with a unity and grace and an absorption in the spirit of the play held the audience in rapt attention throughout. The property 111311, Morton Ackerly, and the stage manager, john Fisher, with their assistants, did their work so well and so effectively that one really believed that the stage setting was that of Carteret's old-fashioned garden. The setting, however, though very picturesque, did not at any time stand out as a single attraction, but immediately took its place as real, and served as a harmo- nious background for the action. As John Wfatts, our capable business manager, devised an unusually effective pla11 for the sale of tickets, each member of the class became inspired to do his share. As a result the house was completely sold out before the night of the performance. The Senior Class is deeply grateful to Miss Anne Byrne, without whose excellent work in directing and coaching the perfection of parts and merging of them into an artistic whole would have been impossible.

Directed by Leomzrd H. Stine. Censored by the Board of Edzfcation. Setting: Kingston High School Auditorium, December 10, 1928. Musical comedies were never thought of in connection with the moving pic- tures until the vitaphone was invented. The combination of interesting music with a dramatic production made The Gypsy Rover something new. It was evi- dent from the absorbed attention and generous applause of the audience that they greatly enjoyed and fully approved an attempt that, while ambitious, was excel- lently carried through. Theplot hinges upon the complication arising from the abduction by gypsies of Sir Gilbert Howe in infancy. The title role is played by Newell Lasher. Although it is his first year in our studio, he displays a commendable amount of ability in this work. Opposite Rob, Genevieve Main as Lady Constance, takes the part of an English heroine charmingly, and her beautiful voice and her appreciative interpretation make this part a real achievement in musical Work. The role of the father of Lady Con- stance, Sir George Martendale, is admirably taken by Alton Shader, who displays a very pleasing baritone voice, and gives a dignified interpretation of the char- acter. The erstwhile fiande of Lady Constance, Lord Craven, was the hardest role for which to find an actor. The difficult part, that of an English fop, was given to james Halloran, who shows real dramatic ability and a fine sense of the humorous situations without CO1'lll'11llQtl1lg the all too common offense of ovcrdoing them. Edna Hall as Meg, the gypsy mother, gives her audience quite a surprise with her excellent portrayal of an old gypsy woman. Mart, the husband of Meg, as played by Samuel Read, is very realistic and together with Sinfo, played by John Thompson, makes the robber scene in the second act, one of the climaxes of the performance. Zara, the belle of the gypsy camp, is portrayed vivaciously by Caroline Port, who adds a genuine gypsy color to the first act. Vivian Klothe as Mina, the second daughter of Sir George, is a charming social butterfly, whose love affairs with Captain Jerome fFrank Racej and Sir Tobe Lyon fl-larry Sussinj add to the interest of the story as well as furnishing- unusual comedy scenes. The part of the lackey, a typical English servant, is taken by Clifford Miller, and john Mohr interprets the role of Sir Francis McCorkle, a song publisher. ' The success of many new actors can be attributed largely to Director Stine, whose work reveals his unusual ability in this held.

They chose a play that was particularly appropriate because the theme was athletic, and because it was presented while the football season was at its height. The play centers around a romance, the culmination of which is prevented by race distinction, since Strongheart is an Indian brave, and Dorothy, an aristocratic American girl. The natural and realistic interpretation of Reade, the Hgrindf' by George Willg the part of the sehemer, Thorne, taken with vigor, yet restraint by Clifford Miller, the loyaity to Strongheart of Frank Nelson and Dick Livingston made real by Alfred Hasbrouck and John VVattsg the naive humor of Billy Saunders captured and imparted by John Thompson, espe- cially in his love affair with Molly QRuth McLaughlinjg the frivolous Hirt done to the life by Maud Weston, CVivian Klothejg the lifelike portrayal of Ross, the typical Freshie by CHarry LeFever, Irjg the peppy coaching of the Football team by Jay Molyneauxg excellent presentation of the Football team itself 5 the line appreciation and convincing portrayal of the loyalty and self-sacrifice of Strongheart by Herrick Schoonmaker, and the vivacious, yet serious nature of Dorothy Nelson, so satisfactorily done by Ann Herzog,-all these parts contributed to an unusually time high school performance. The actors made the play so realistic that each spectator forgot for a time that he was witnessing a drama, and felt as if he himself were in college. The play made such an impression upon all who attended it, that it will long remain in our memories. The A.A. gratefully acknowledges the efforts of Miss Anne Byrne, whose patience and energy and self-forgetfulness could not but inspire all the cast with an earnestness and enthu- siasm to do their best.

Permission granted by the Board of Education. License No. 1928. Time: 8:15 to 11:30. Place: Kingston High School Gym. The stage is set. The bare room, usually given over to the prosaic swinging of Indian clubs, and the giving and receiving of quick, sharp commands, has taken on a festive air through the magic of softly shaded lights, graceful streamers of blue and gold, and the tradi- tional harvest-time decorations.

Scene II Suddenly from behind the screen of cornstalks throbs the soft chord of a banjo and the long answering wail of a saxaphone. For an instant the couples hesitate, each reluctant to be the first to take the door. But in another moment the lure of the music has entered the actors' blood and the fioor is thronged with laughing, whirling, jostling couples. And so on through the swift hours of the evening the insistent, pulsing strains of the music, the soft rhythm of feet, quick laughter-a happy, happy throng. And then-has the film been cut? Surely it is too soon for the picture to be over. No, the picture is completed, but it will long remain a happy memory. Prisma Dance Under the auspices of Prisma. Directed by Ruth McLaughlin and assistants, Mary Phelps, Ann Herzog, Edna Hall, and Mescal Toms. Permission granted by Board of Education, License No. 1928. Place: Kingston High School Gym. Scene I Strolling couples are boarding a gaily decked ship. The life preservers hang aloft lest something unfortunate occurg for is it not leap year? However, the girls fully realize their precarious situation and assume responsibility by introducing their guests to the ofiicers and the crew. Maroon and white banners, Prisma inscribed, hang from the upper deck, indicating the name of the good ship. Scene II The dance is at its height! Even the captain is heartily entering into the festive spirit. The music, played by Tony Turck's orchestra, is sufficiently excellent for a dance held even on a Prisma ship. Everyone registers happiness, the boys because they are being entertained, the girls, because they are doing the entertaining. Scene III As the crew starts work at the gang planks, the music changes into the ever familiar tune Home, Sweet Ho-mc, and the last of the guests realize that the dance has ended all too soon and that they must disembark and go back to the prosaic landlubber life of rehearsal for the next act.

To this end the directors of scenery, music, publicity, and refreshments worked hard for weeks trying to get things ready for their big night and especially endeavoring to per- suade the members of their own cast to support their first great undertaking. The momentous occasion finally was at hand and everything seemed to be in readiness except the junior cast which had not yet appeared. But the seniors, unwilling to see their fellow producers fail utterly in their first attempt, sent a great many of the senior cast to the junior studio in the K. H. S. gym that the shooting of The Junior Folly might be able to proceed. Everything appeared to be running smoothly with the cameras clicking away rhythmically, when sud- denly ea whole bankz of evergreens on the front wall tumbled down and out upon the dance floor. Then the seniors again came to the rescue and rearranged the scenery so that the production was able to resume once more. But their troubles were not yet over, for the punch bowl soon ran dry, making it necessary to cut from the picture many delicious, almost indispensable scenes. In spite of these and various other setbacks the production ran ont com- paratively smoothly, everybody apparently having a jolly time, even the seniors. A. A. Social As the MAR-ooN goes to press, we are looking eagerly'to the annual Athletic Association Social to be staged Friday, May eighteenth. Each year all the classes mingle for an evening of frolic topped off by dancing' in the gymnasuim. Many of our stars are anticipating this opportunity to prove that the Kingston High School studio still produces artists and entertainers of ability. Thus, there can remain no anxiety as to the quality of the evening's enjoyment. One Hundred S even . N4 1,72 ,S sxs,-- say' Q w Q. If - 9 - N 5 N TH vi S X S - 5 s X V , ..

In these glimpses we see Eleanor Saxe starring as Queen, Clifford Miller as Prime Minister, and Charlotte Atkins, Maid of Honor. Isabel Scudder, Irene Gleason, Edna Hall, Matilda Hobush, Genevieve Main, Julia McEntee, Beverly Schmidt, and Margaret Happy comprise the train, all clothed in vari- colored gowns, harmonious with the season. A spring carnival with its frivolity and color enlivens the scene, transporting the audience to a gay atmosphere wholly in keeping with the time of year. In one of the dances the partic- ipants are in clever clown costumes. Now the May pole dancers appear, the boys in long Oliver Twist trousers and white waists, and the girls in white ruftied dresses and pantnlettes. Other special dances are delightful surprises that bring credit to the directors. The letters and roses as well as the NIAROON literary prizes are awarded. At last we see this picture which has added a touch ot' beauty and lightness to the last act wind up by the return of the royal procession.

The qualifica- tions for appearing in this act are not at all rigid, as each aspirant who h-as thirty or more counts, who is willing to cooperate, -and who desires to promote the general welfare, is admitted to the cast. It is late in the fall of nineteen twenty-seven when the curtain first arises on the act. First on the screen appear the candy sellers, who reappear at regular intervals all through the play. Then comes a mob scene which finally resolves itself into a smoothly running election. VVith uninterrupted action follows the selling of Prisma pins, paper, badges, and Alma Mater songs. Next we see the freshmen being amused by a very original party with Peter Pan and others featuring. Now, at the beginning of the Christmas season, the girls are decorating dolls and tying balloons into bundles-a rather strange procedure. In the development of the play we see that these toys reach the hands and cause joy to the hearts of a number of Kingston's smallest pupils. At this time, too, there is flashed a picture Wherein the girls are busily decorating the foyer of the school, starting an epidemic of decorating which sweeps through the building. At the dawn of the New Year the scene is one of gaiety, leap year dance being the special feature. St. Patrick's day hits the screen done in color, the color, green, being sup- plied to the unadorned in the form of neckties and hair ribbons. A Prisma minstrel with a truly Irish fiavor holds eve1'yone's attention. A spelling match occupies the next strip of film, not a very lively act, but interesting and amusing. At Weekly intervals for a period of two months we see groups of girls assembling in the library and courteously listening to different speakers. The written titles show that medicine, teaching, business, etc., are the speakers' topics. This informs us that the scenes are those of vocational guid- ance U talks which are of unbounded benefit to the girls of Prisma. An important coming attraction is the annual County fair. 0110 Hundred Thirteen A . V V are of .X-' Q s s' 2 S E was + .S S s s s 551 :15 4 4 1 2 Xfvw V A Bankers' Association GORDON NVA'rrs . .

This year they have not only discharged their banking duties with merit, but also have attended to the sale of tickets for various school activities and the collection of funds raised for special purposes. If the association keeps on as now, there is no doubt but that future K. H. S. stars will find a group ready to take care of a percentage of their salaries.

Certainly their defeat was not the fault of the earliest cast of players from K. H. S., who presented the atiirmative side under the directorship of Miss Ethel M. Hull and Miss Agnes S. Smith. They brought no new laurels to our Alma Mater, except the assurance of having done their best and the distinction of having been the best of sportsmen. A new era in debating, arising from the use of the extemporaneous plan in speaking, has made its advent into our school, as well as other Hudson Valley schools. It is a note- worthy fact that no other supporters of the athrmative, which side we upheld, have won on the question disputed this year, so it is with hope and grim determination to carry off honors next year that we write Finis to a very interesting debating season. SCREEN REVIEW OF THE DEBATE WITH POUGHKEEPSIE This is an exciting drama of a close, clean light, with Sarah Gulick, Mescal Toms, Sher- wood Lasher, and Kenneth Happy, alternate, in the stellar roles. Notable is the sportsmanship of the opposition and the wonderiful actinglof all players. The unanimous decision of the censors in favor of Poughkeepsie adds ll touch of sadness, but does not, however, detract from the quality of the production. SCREEN REVIEVV OF THE DEBATE VVITH ALBANY This is a good show, with the interpretation by Isabel Scudder, Sylvia Kline, John Kinney, and Kenneth Happy, alternate, clone in line style despite the decision of two to one in favor of the all-male cast of Albany.

Grim dancers of Death they seem to me As they t'oss their limbs with Hendish glee To the piping notes so shrill and high Made by the swift wind rushing by. I hate the winter, cold and grey g How I wish that it were May! I'n1 happy when I see the trees Bursting forth with new-born leaves, Happy when I hear the trill Of little voices piping shrill, See the grasses green and new, Smiling skies and heaven's blue, See the robin on the lawn, Robust red-breast, brave and strong, See the earthworm plump and round Crawl slowly over fresh turned ground, Hear the rushing of the waters- 'Tis the sound of Nature's daughters.

The second half starts and Poughkeepsie is fighting hard. At last they shove the ball across. The final score reads Poughkeepsie 12, Kingston 6. Scene V Our opponent is Middletown.

The final score, 14-6, represents a well-earned victory. Scene VII The season is over. The Duso League teams meet again, but not in battle. They are noisily attacking a fine banquet given through the courtesy of the Newburgh Hi-Y. Prejudices disappear with lightning-like rapidity. The ban- quet finally breaks up with a general feeling of good will, especially noticeable among the K. H. S. men, for they have had a successful season and they look forward to a fine team next year under Captain Flip Jones and Coach Kias.

Q A ' The basketball team, which was built around six of last year's letter men, had a very successful season, losing but four out of fifteen games. Coach Kias taught them -a new style of playing which was quickly mastered. We opened the Duso League season by winning a close game from Port Jervis, 23-21. The victory came only after an extra two minutes had been played. In an equally exciting game We lost by two points to Poughkeepsie after leading them by one point at the end of the first half. This defeat disheartened the team and they dropped another game at Newburgh. From that time on, the team picked up and registered some very decisive wins. We were very fortunate in that we had no stars playing for us. Good teamwork was a vital factor in our victories. Much credit for the varsity's good work was also due to the second team which played with great spirit throughout the season. As its players were mostly under- classmen, there is every prospect of a championship team next year. Scenes of Action. K.H.S.

Captain Joyce and Jones are the only men back from last year's varsity. The rest of the team have had little experience, but they seem to be a hard hitting bunch. In the first game every man collected at least one hit as the team trimmed Highland 15-6. Beacon was unable to compete with the K, H. S. sluggers and fell to an 8-3 defeat. A home run by Eddie Minasian, a freshman, and four hits by Jay Molyneaux were features of the game. The victory over Albany Academy was one of which we may ustly be proud. Again every man on the team made at least one hit. Red Joyce, who had pitched steady, consistent ball in the first two games, rose to the heights in this contest. He allowed but three hits and retired ten of the Academy players by the strike-out route. The NIAROON goes to press on the eve of the Poughkeepsie battle. Snice the Poughkeepsie jinx is a thing of the past, we are confident of victory. SCPIIFS of Action K.H.S'.

Unfortunately our first meet with Cornwall was called off on account of stormy weather. VVe opened our season at Poughkeepsie. The team score was 62-364 in Poughkeepsie's favor, but we are far from discouraged with the result. King Thompson, our captain, won the mile run without much effort and johnny WVatts placed first in the 440 yard run. These two men are the outstanding stars of the team. VV e -are counting on them to win in the sectional meet. Minasian, Lebert, Brown, and Clark, respectively, placed second in the shot-put, high jump, 220 yard dash, and pole vault. The team is working hard with the determination to bring home victory from the Albany Academy meet. Manager Rhinehart expects to book more meets to be held after the sectionals at Poughkeepsie.
