ORTH OUR PRINCIPAL As Ne-Ca-Hi’s largest class goes forth to find a place in life it marks another step in the development of a great institution under the hand of a man of purpose. All loyal sons and daughters of Ne-Ca-Hi delight to honor the man who has made her what she is today. Other master builders have had their part in the work but no one has had his life so completely wrapped up in our school as has our principal, Frank L. Orth. Mr. Orth’s service to Ne-Ca-Hi has continued for almost two decades and has taken many forms. He taught science wrhen it was necessary to make bricks without straw. When the modern high school plant was built he was head of the science department. He then laid out plans that were incorporated into that part of the building to be occupied by his department. These plans meet the needs today and will continue to do so many years, showing his foresight. It is of special interest to know that Mr. Orth was the first real supervisor of the business of our high school’s publications. There was not so much talk about budgets for household expenses and what not then, but it soon became possible to know how the business stood at any particular time. The Monitor had almost gone onto the rocks several times earlier by reaching out too far. That has not happened since and can never happen again because the Monitor has funds permanently invested and Mr. Orth has insisted that the business management show enough enterprise each year to meet expenses. After J. L. Thalman had reorganized the school and put new spirit into it there seemed to be little room for improvement. Yet when Mr. Orth became principal he took up Ne-Ca-Hi’s motto, “Nothing but the Best” and, by thorough-going methods, improved almost everything he found. Greater things have been accomplished in many activities than ever before. Among other things a sound set of financial rules were established to govern all the activities so that they find it necessary to keep in good financial condition. Mr. Orth has his hand upon all the manifold activities of a large school and the cafeteria, the orchestra, the band, and the rest have benefitted thereby. His plans have resulted in many new pieces for our orchestra and band and new uniforms for the latter. During the past year he has given special attention to building up a library that will enable all the departments of the school to carry on their work properly. Most of its books and equipment are the result of his planning and contriving. and gifts from classes in whom he has instilled a devotion to the school. Our principal is best appreciated and will be best remembered by the departing classes for the way in which he deals w’ith boys and girls. His fairness is that of a true friend and guide. When a student is told that he is wrong, there is no doubt about it. Kindness and firmness he shows as the occasion demands. For both we shall always hold him in the highest regard and may Ne-Ca-Hi rise to new heights of achievement under his guiding hand. 10 LA- ■H HENRY 1'. KATES GEORGE B.

And yet these feats are not what make the school really known. Athletic fame is recognized only by the few in the district of the school. That which makes our credit good on the entrance books of colleges, is its scholastic record, the number of students in the upper third of a graduating class. A good average is just as much a mark of honor as a N. C. H. S. for your sweater, and means far more to Ne-Ca-Hi in the long run. This year the Senior class has thirty graduates who have had an average of over 90% for the whole four years. Will not a college be more anxious to enter pupils who come from a school where ten percent of the graduating classes are honor pupils, than those from a school where only three percent are honor students, or where a winning football team is its best recommendation? It is something like this that really makes the school’s name known and admired in school circles. Besides, a high average is a credit to you, and surely doesn’t take much more time than training for football. I do not mean that football or athletics in general should be stopped, indeed they are very necessary to the physical development, but scholarship should not be forced to give place to it. So why not turn to scholastic championship as well as athletic honors and advance Ne-Ca-Hi another rung on the ladder of fame. 59 (Emtrtpay “Courtesy Is sooner found in lowly sheds With smoky rafters than in tapestry halls And courts of princes, where it first was named And yet is most pretended.” When one hears the word courtesy, he immediately thinks of the courts with their pomp and spectacular manners. He sees the diplomat stiffly bow to Her Majesty, the Queen, and murmur words of praise. He sees the glitter of a polished exterior—and calls it courtesy. He knows nothing of real courtesy—the courtesy that comes from the bottom of the heart—and found only in the lowly. That which he sees in the courts is not courtesy—it is a habit, a result of the time when cards were distributed bearing rules that court attaches must follow. Their courtesy is artificial—a form. It is more often the humble who are actually courteous—they do it not because it is a form, but because they feel and mean it. It may look nicer to see the courtesy of the court—but how much better one feels to know that the person really means what he says, and is not saying it because it is customary to do so. Unfortunately all the “lowly” do not practice courtesy. Some have the court as their ideal, and, alas! some have no ideal. How do you prefer to be addressed—in a gruff, brusque manner or in a manner that shows a consideration for your rights and welfare? Why was Lancelot considered the greatest among Arthur’s Knights? Why was Robert E. Lee loved and revered by foe as well as friend? Both men were the soul of courtesy. If then, we appreciate courtesy in a few, why not conceive a plan whereby it may be instilled into the masses? Education has done much, but it can and will do more. And by education I do not mean the learning of fixed rules and customs. In fact, to the contrary. People must be taught to want to be courteous —and they will be if taught in the right manner. This is the problem I bring to you, how can the public be taught courtesy so they will really feel it and mean it from the bottom of their hearts? The students of Ne-Ca-Hi can do much to spread the ideals of courtesy at home and abroad. Artificial manners ring about as true as counterfeit dollars; they reflect about as much glory to their setting as paste pearls or imitation diamonds; very often there are claws concealed beneath soft fur, or daggers hidden under silken coverings. The public must be taught the difference—as in the business world each man needs to be a specialist in his own line, so in the world among men, people need to know' w'hom they may trust. Too often in the past the guileless have met the fate referred to by Balzac, who said, “The humble and modest flowers in the valley perish perhaps when they are transplanted too near the skies, to the region where storms gather and the sun is scorching.” as o THE SENIORS AS THEY CAME IN THE SENIORS AS THEY LEAVE 62 My friends and classmates, we have come to the parting of the ways and like two-faced Janus we are looking forward and backward. We are looking backward upon the happy days of school life, which will always be rich in our recollections and memories. In this short history I shall try to bring to your minds some of the happenings of these four years, during which we have been joined by a common undercurrent of thought and action. On the morning of September eighth, nineteen hundred and nineteen there came pouring forth from all parts of New Castle a crowd of children who were all bound for the same place. They reached their destination, the welcome high school portals, without being run over by street cars or automobiles, although they did not often venture so far alone. Some kind protecting hand guided them to various rooms where they filled out blanks with information concerning themselves. It is interesting to note that according to the cards the dates of their birth seemed to vary anywhere from nineteen hundred to nineteen nineteen, thus showing their skill in mental arithmetic. The treatment that we received at the hands of the upperclassmen that first day might be expressed in the following way: I came to Ne-Ca-Hi School to enter the Freshman year, The Sophomore he up and says, “We want no infants here;” The Junior looked the other way and owned me with a sigh, The Senior patted me on the head and told me not to cry. But we didn’t feel the least like crying as we thought it splendid fun to be a Freshie. We were treated with tolerant condescension by our teachers and we hope we were forgiven when we rushed pellmell into senior class rooms. Those first few weeks the teachers were exceptionally faithful in their attempts to teach us that we knew less than we thought we did. The first social event of the year was the Senior-Freshman reception. We thought it a regular “scribble” party. We all had a pleasant time and felt much more at home after this event. About three days later we had our first class meeting. Robert Preston was chosen president and some good class spirit was aroused. Our basketball teams were not champions but they were the best that any Freshman class had ever had. We ended our Freshman year with an enjoyable picnic. Then in the fall of nineteen twenty we began our second year in high school. With that year came a feeling of confidence so naturally inspired by the knowledge that we were looked up to by at least one class, though it be none other than the young and verdant Freshmen. This year our class burst forth in all its brilliancy like the first dandelion after a spring rain. For our Sophomore year Walter Wilkinson was our class president. We showed our mental, social, and physical ability by the large number of Sophomores on the Honor Roll, the memorable Sophomore party, and the fact that our girls won the basketball championship without losing a game and scored the highest points in the track meet, while our boys won the baseball championship. These were accomplishments of which we were proud. The second year of the high school life of Twenty-three w'as brought to a close by a picnic at Perry’s cottage on the Slippery Rock. The swimming, feasting, and good fun that were indulged in made this a good time to be remembered by all who were there. Time flew and soon we were entering our third year with its more important work. With greater responsibilities however came greater pleasures. We elected Howard Kirk to guide us through this important year. Once again our girls did not lose a basketball game and our boys were football champions this time. Two important events which occur during the Junior year of every class are the class play and the Junior-Senior banquet. Our class gave a play of Alfred Noyes, entitled “Sherwood”. At this time we presented the school with a quantity of lights and gray curtains to be used for the stage. We banqueted the Seniors royally. As often happens on days set for picnics, it rained the day we were supposed to have had our Junior picnic. Many were the disappointed Juniors who had to stay at home. The class of twenty-three introduced a new custom when it bought its class rings during the Junior year. And now three-fourths of our race had been run and we had reached the home stretch. It was with a delightful feeling of pleasure that we spent this last year together. Howard Kirk was again elected to lead our class in its activities The purple and white, our class colors, waved proudly in all fields of work. The Monitor was kept up to its high standard and the Monitor staff of twenty-three is to be commended for its splendid service. As Seniors our boys won the basketball championship and our girls were champions for the third time. Our Senior play “His Uncle’s Niece”, was a big success. In return for the services of the orchestra during the play we added to the equipment of that body the set of kettle drums that it is now using. Our picnic and many other happy experiences, including the 64 Junior-Senior banquet and the Senior-Junior dance, have passed forever, but we shall treasure them in our hearts. And day by day the Senior’s thought has been: “Our race is nearly run, our days are numbered here, the goal is not afar.” Now we realize that our high school career is made past mending, past improving. Yet a little while and our present will become the past; the class will fade away into a memory, will be given a page in life’s great book; and in the dim future the echoes of the footsteps of the class of twenty-three will be heard and reheard, always with sweet, loving, tender associations. ‘alt? ong of aumtty ahm CYNTHIA BLAINE To the school our Alma Mater, Sing we praises of none greater. First to us both now and later. Dear old Ne-Ca-Hi. Now the future’s call we’re hearing, But we’re not its troubles fearing. For the colors we are wearing, Are of Ne-Ca-Hi. Chorus. We will love thee ever, We’ll forget thee never, We’re glad to go, yet sad to go. It’s hard our friendships to sever. Onward! w’e must find our work, We are not the class to shirk, So farewell our dear old high school, Dear old Ne-Ca-Hi. Now our life at school is ended And to all by whom befriended In whose paths our ways have wended. We give thanks to thee. Now our colors float on high Keep them lifted to the sky, Then our name shall never die, 1923. Scene—Miss Wanda Knowall knitting in her home. Miss Foretell enters and they exchange greetings. Miss Foretell—Why how de do Miss Wanda Knowall! I just got in from court and land sakes, who do you think was being tried! Walter Wilkison was up for bigamy! Howard Kirk, the judge, was sitting up there as big as Mike and yelling, “If you can’t keep quiet, get out!” Representing the Commonwealth was Dorothy Knina and I must say that it looked bad for Walter. Representing Walter was Katherine Beighley. (She wants to get him free so that she can marry him herself). Every once in a while one of Walter’s wives fainted and Doctor John Hite and Dr. Charles Snyder rushed madly to her assistance. Margaret Brenner and Chester Craig were reporting for the “News” and John Donaldson and Earl Shaffer for the “Herald”. They sure exchanged some mean glances. Mike Priscaro acted as clerk of courts, George Nickerson as tipstaff and Michael Zidow as interpreter. The jurymen were Marie Abel, Gladys Gorley, Anna Hal-gren, Ethel Littell, Floyd Dute, William Eckman, David Ginsberg, Ellis Hanes, Walter McKee, Russell McNickle, Julian Miller and Fred Stewart. Fred was sleeping all the time and bothering the court with his snores. Attorney Robert Preston was there (He just got admitted to the bar through the influence of Attorney Dickey). Frank Moretti and Sandry Maielli, the political bosses of the fifth and eighth wards were there trying to influence the judge. Detective George Kulha was snoopin’ around seeing that nothing went wrong. Harry Kerr and Kenneth Lutz were policemen guarding the side doors. Zip Sargent, a fierce looking policeman was guarding the front door. Every once in a while he’d run out and come back looking very happy. Carlotta Kerns lives next door to the court house. The second case was Arthur Nelson, Jay Coulter and Clinton Burchfield. They were being tried for second-story work. Fred Patterson was the next. He was arrested for trying to make doughnuts without holes. Reverend Arthur Calvin was there giving spiritual advice. Just as I was leaving I saw Gertrude Gillespie Kirk bringing the judge’s lunch Miss Wanda Knowall—Have you seen today’s “Tattler” yet? Miss Foretell—Give it here! Why you remember Adelaide Byers. She gave a large dinner dance in honor of her husband who has returned from Annapolis. Among them present were, Sheriff and Mrs. Sam Perry. (You know she used to be Anna Patterson), Mary Winter, the famous lecturess, who is now lecturing on, “How to Put Up Bobbed Hair,” George Weinsehenk and William Hinkson, who have just returned from the north pole, where they discovered that there isn’t any Santa Claus, Wayne Canon, who is spending his life trying to make Buster Keaton laugh, Esther Hawley, the editor-in-chief of the “Whizz-bang”, Edward Johns and Mathew Curtis, the managers of Louis, Martin Shira, who has written a novel called “How to Dye a Pair of Black Kids White When You Want to Wear Them to a Wedding Two Days after You’ve Been to a Funeral”, and Cynthia Blaine, the songwriter. The guests were entertained by a play called, “The Mysterious Actions of Pete and Repeat,” written by Mollie Cohen. The caste were: Pete, Stanley Ewens; Repeat, Russel Hoffmeister; The Village Vamp, Bessie Plant; The Heroine, Eleanor Harper; The Hero, Arthur W'imer; The Villain, Stephen Wilson. At last Ben Prosser has realized his lifelong ambition by singing between the acts. He sang Annie Laurie, but he changed the name to Anna Laura. I always like to read the Hints and Dints. You know William Beadle writes them. Oh! I read where Thomas J. Whalen has taken up prizefighting so that he can call on any girl he wants. (Oh, the red-headed Sheik) ! Local boy wins fame! Robert Anwyl has charge of the footlights in the Ziegfield Follies. What else do you know? Miss Wanda Knowall—Why— Miss Foretell—I heard as how Lee Clarke is flippin pancakes in a local restaurant. Jimmy Harlan is playing Hamlet. Raymond Nolte is the president of Russia. You remember Sis Hopkins? She made a wish and she got one. Miss Wanda Knowall—Oh there’s someone at the door. (She leaves.) Miss Foretell—My but that woman can talk. (Miss Knowall returns.) Miss Foretell—Who was there? Miss Wanda Knowall—Oh it was only Raymond Malloy taking orders to enlarge pictures. That’s the fifth time he’s been here today. He was telling me about James Stewart w'ho has invented a way to turn round corners square. Miss Foretell—I was to the movies the other night. Robert Alls-house and John Spencer are managing it. They have fixed it so that all the front seats are backseats. Sitting next to me was Don Straub and Edna Beighley. They’ve been going together ever since school was out and he hasn’t popped the question yet. Robert Burns and Orland Covert were ushering. In the Pathe News they showed the cotton and rice plantation of Dorothy Rice and Helen Cotton. They also showed the pictures of Pearl Ferree, Beulah Ruthrauff, Margaret Tucker, Margaret Trimble, Ruth Williams and Della Sherman, who are setting out to reform Chicago, that toddling town. Guess who is taking Ben Tur- pin’s place—Scott Tully! Odd McCleary, George Bender, Russel Ma-gill, and Clifford Ziegler were shown as national baseball champions. As I was leaving, I met Mr. and Mrs. Charles Stritmater, you know, Edith Roberts and her husband. They told me that Harry Scheide-mantle had discovered a new kind of shade for mantles. You never can tell what may come of a name! Oh. 1 forgot, Isabelle Zehner’s Symphony Orchestra took care of the music. Her orchestra was composed of: First after last violins, William Jenkins, Geraldine Turk; accordian. Bill Wallace; mouth organ, Eleanor Bolinger; pipe organ, Dorothy Blau; drum, Helen Drumm. Isabelle pays them ten dollars a week and their washing and say, if that was a symphony orchestra, I’m Mary Pickford. When I got outside, I met May Richards who sold me some medicine which she claimed was the secret of her pep. As soon as I got it, I spilled it on my dress and I had to send it to John Brinton, the cleaner. When 1 got it back it looked just like new. I wore it to the wedding of Pauline Heasley and Robert Porter. It was a grand affair. The Reverend Herman Patton officiated. Dorothy Vaughn, Mabel Trax, Virginia Thompson, and Nancy Taylor were bridesmaids and maids of honor. The couple are living down on the farm now and Harold Lenz, an old bachelor is boarding with them. Bertha Kirker takes care of the dairy side of the establishment. They all get along quite nicely. They bought a machine from Kenneth Brown who, with Lois Alford, Olive Annabel. Mary Beadle, Nancy Book, Florence Dick, and Helen Dunlap is in the motor business. Robert Hunter visits them quite often. He is selling Zanol products. (My that boy could sell anything). Miss Wanda Knowall—Have you ever been back to the high school? Miss Foretell—Oh yes, I was visiting there just the other day. I found things a little different from what they were when we left. Uno Leivo is now the principal. They have elevators. Floyd Geiger and John Weyrick have charge of them. Hilton Lynch is head of the science department and when I was there he was trying to teach the children that heat could be abstracted from fire; so as to make the fire perfectly harmless, while the heat could be carried away in flour barrels to be used for cooking. They have a shoe-repairing department for the benefit of those who come late and have to run to school. Harriet Kearns and Robert Perrine look after this. Hazel Wolford is directing the chorus. Leroy Johnson is head of the English department. He has revised Miss Wimer’s method of teaching English. Gertrude Mech-ling and Jennie Johnson have charge of the gym work. (I used to think that Miss Gilbert worked us hard but she wras mild compared to these two.) Helen McConaghy has charge of History. She has written a history called, “The Rise and Fall of Jackson Centre.” After I left the school, I called in the Almira Home and who do you suppose was there? Miss Wanda Knowall—Why I can’t imagine. Miss Foretell—Margaret Brisbine. She had so many proposals for marriage that she got disgusted and retired to the Home. NE-CA-HIS Miss Wanda Knowall—Well, I never. Miss Foretell—Say, did you know that Kenneth Lally, William Mc-Ilveny, Betty Mackey, Mildred Guy, Ethel Jones and John Diffley had organized and gone into the Kiddie Kar business? They found that children could get to school sooner on kiddie kars than on the Mahon-ingtown street car. I saw Betty Mackey and she was telling me about it. She also told me that Sara Gordon and Martha McGill have organized a system of Girls’ Clubs all over the country. Speaking of business, Harriet Ewing and Ralph McGoun have opened a shoe store. Harriet Hugh and Harriet Weddel went into the ice business but it was a failure as their hearts were so warm that it melted all the ice. Linnea Swanson, Cora Humble and Grace Hunter have opened a Beauty Parlor. I passed the other day and noticed a sign outside which said, “Freckles removed while you wait.” Mabel Anderson, Margaret Cowmeadow, Mary Douglas, Dorothy Flansburg, Louise Gibson, Emma Jones, and Anna Artz are traveling salesladies for “Newlywed Baking Powder,” guaranteed not to harm the husband. Edna Armstrong and Hazel Armstrong are chemists whose chief product is a croup ointment. Dorothea Davis, Mary Dillard, Frances McCann, Francis Hazen, Vera Ward and Madaline Kelty have gone into the manufacture of nutritious sawdust. Betty Melder is the manager of the Sherman Hotel. She employs Mary Perdue, Olive Taylor and Hilda Whalen as bellhops. Ethel P ix, Martha Hurst, Helen Keating, Agnes McClelland, Helen McCracken and Pauline Peffer have an establishment in New York where they “ take in” boarders and anyone else with whom they have any business dealings. Margaret George, Dorothy Fisher, Clara Freshwater, and Elizabeth Chambers have established a day nursery. Ruth Frampton, Peg Vogan, Amelia Komarc, Bertha Dobe-lek, and Thelma Scott are somebody’s stenogs. Cecil Stewart, Ruth Brown, Erma Halboth, Genevieve Young, Adrienne Leathers and Eunice Wilson have established an art shop. Their specialty is hand-painted dishpans. Miss Wanda Knowall—Well, Well— Miss Foretell—Had you heard of the marathon talking race? Edith Dodds, Esther Levine, Carolyn Myers, Pat Owens, Ruth Baer, Lydia Black and Victoria Conca are the competitors. The last I heard Carolyn and Pat were running a close second with about one hundred twenty-one words a minute. Speaking of marathons, Jeanette Rabin-ovitz started a marathon dance when school let out and as far as I know she is still dancing. Tommy March and Wesley Rose ran a race with Sparkplug and when Tommy and Wesley were coming back, they met Sparkplug just starting out. When I was coming home after watching the returns, I saw a woman and somebody carrying a bunch of bundles. The woman proved to be Louise Bishton and the somebody. W'illiam J. Usselton, her husband. (I never thought he’d come to this, he certainly was a woman hater). Speaking of marriages, 1 heard that Bernice McWilliams was happily wedded to Bill Hamil who holds a prominent position with the Pennsylvania Railroad System. Harold Philpott has at last succeeded in getting Doris McClure. Gwendolyn Wilson helps her husband manage his picture taking studio. Of course Ruth McCormick has married Jimmy Lewis. And did you know about Eleanor McMillin? She was married in an aeroplane in order to avoid pursuit. Ruth Zerner has married the Secretary of Treasury. I think his name is Magee. Wilfred Thomas and Mildred Burleson have also entered upon the sea of matrimony. Miss Wanda Knowall—Well, I’m glad I never married. Miss Foretell—So am I. Say, did you know that Rae Muirhead has resigned? Dot Davenport has been appointed to take her place. I think she will be a little more lenient. I heard that she was going to allow the people to stay out until nine thirty instead of nine o’clock. She’ll be after that dancing club that Roy Eagan, Fred Lee. William Sands and Elmer Whittaker organized. Lets see—what do they call it now? Oh yes! The Paymore Club. They wanted Richard Connelly to belong to it but he said he was too busy trying to invent an invisible pocket flask. Miss Wanda Knowall—What’s this world coming to? Miss Foretell—Trevor West celebrated his fifth birthday the other day. Miss Wanda Knowall—Fifth birthday? What do you mean? Miss Foretell—Oh, I mean the fifth birthday of his apartment store. I was there and you’d be surprised at the number of people I know that work there. James and Glynn Williams are floor walkers. Mary Downs, Margaret Guinaugh, Mildred Hughes, Bertha Lorenz and Helen Nicholson are some of the clerks. There were pictures all around of Harold Shafer, advertising Arrow collars. Marguerite Montieth was shown as having “the skin you love to touch.” I saw James Stone in there and he told me that he had succeeded in winning many loving cups and one, not through any athletic feat. There was a lot of signs and posters all over the place. One of them was a bulletin drawn up by Martha Mathews, Elma Robison, Wallace Brewster, Clyde Myers, Blanche Roberts, Clare Fisher, Amzie Reynolds, Boyd Stunkard, Cora Belle Eckles, which stated that tuition is due on the first Tuesday after the first Thursday when it falls on the thirtieth of February. Another announced the enterprising expedition of May Minner, Frank Brenne-man, Nellie Irwin, Josephine Morganti, Elsie Mackey, Mary Tewell and John Kenehan to Egypt to find out who put the tut in Tut-ankh-amen. I saw another announcement which stated that Elmer Thomas was going around the country arguing, in fact, he’d pay any man five dollars an hour for arguing with him. One of the clerks told me that Rhoda Leslie was managing basketball teams. Carl Taekelt, Charles Thompson, Victor Underwood, and Norman Young didn’t lead a high life in school but they are now. They’re living up on Pike’s Peak. Thelma McCracken, Georgianna McNees, Adelaide Norris, Minnie Pili-fant, Cora Taylor and Mae Sands are sailsladies. Yes, they joined the navy last fall. Myrtle Burnett keeps singing a little song entitled. “Andy, There’s a Minister Handy.” Esther Marlin and Rosella Mar- 71 kowitz have gotten out a theory that man should have been made entirely different. They think that there should be one eye in the front of the head and one in back because it is just as important to know where you’re coming from as it is to know where you’re going. Ears should be made in the hands so that if they get cold you can put them in your pockets. The mouth should be on the top of the head so that if you’re in a hurry, you can put your breakfast in your hat and eat it on the way to work. Miss Wanda Knowall—Say, what became of Ted Heess? Miss Foretell—The last I heard of him he was singing, “I Just Can’t help Loving Every Girl 1 See.” But my, oh my! It’s four o’clock and I was to be at a missionary meeting at three-thirty! I must be going. Miss Wanda Knowall—Oh, I’m sorry. Can’t you stay for tea? Miss Foretell—No thank you. (She leaves.) Miss Wanda Knowall takes her knitting and leaves the room saying, “That woman certainly doesn’t need any phonograph in her house.” ” t3NE-CA-HISi J. D. HARLAN I will not say that it gives me great pleasure to stand before you this evening and to look into your smiling faces. I do not believe that is necessary. However, by way of introduction allow me to announce that the tuition for the tenth month is now due. Now, my mission is to expose the students, faculty, janitor force and what-not of this school and I assure you that it is with real enthusiasm that I take up my task. Let us first look over this Senior Class. It is a joke! The smartest ones in it are kids who have skipped several grades while some others, mostly our football players, should be supporting families. The girls are stupid, the fellows are ugly and stupid, and as a whole they are the laziest bunch you ever saw. All the work is shoved on the shoulders of Kirk, whom everyone knows is hardly capable of third year Spanish. Speaking of Spanish, do you know Preston? Why he—but let us pass on! This class elected Wesley Rose treasurer only because he was president of Hi-Y, thinking that perhaps he could be trusted. Zip Sargent was made sergeant-at-arms because he had visited Washington during the Penn Relays. Fat Sands is the only one in the class who is not afraid of work. Why he could lie down and go to sleep right beside a good job. After being associated with people for four years one gets to know them pretty well. I have known this gang for some time so I will tell you some of their shortcomings. To begin with, Lee Clarke is the biggest crook in the class. He never pays his bills at Robinson’s Bakery. Wilkinson and Shafer, the cradle-busters, are also questionable characters. Ted Heess is one of these birds who always has four or five girls on the string, but lately Pearson, Mackey and Johns are making things hot for him. We have a cavalry troop in our midst, made up of Byers, Perry and McGoun, which rode all the way through Virgil and Cicero. Then there are about three girls who are so selfish they want all the good marks for themselves. Myers, Hawley and “Doc” Patterson have a drag with their teachers and draw down all the ninety-fives and hundreds, leaving the rest of us nothing but the D’s and seventies. And, by the way, we get them, too. You have heard of many kinds of cases: book-cases, suit-cases, and, maybe, schmier-kase. We have yet another variety. Our most prominent examples are those of Stritty and Edith, Lee and Nancy, and Kirk and Gillespie. This kind of a case is only a method of putting in time, but is really an important side of 73 high school life. Winter and Richards are always fighting about the relative merits ?f Dartmouth and Westminster and so keep the class in an uproar about future prospects. Another pair of agitators is Ray Nolte and Hylton Lynch, either of whom will argue upon any subject at any time at great length and say nothing. (Two grains of wheat in a bushel of hot air.) Let us glance at the wardens of this institution, the faculty. They are the real cause of all our failures for they are the ones that give the low grades. And the way they treat us,—but what can you expect when their minds are filled with thoughts of—well, you know, “in the spring a young man’s fancy’ and all that. The principal of Benjamin Franklin Junior High set the pace last year and now the w'hole faculty seem to be trying to follow his lead. Honestly, the way they coo around in the halls is disconcerting. Also, it is very embarassing to the student body to have to go about the town denying the reports of our principals’ engagement. Each member of this noble faculty has some peculiarity. It is said that the student who laughs loudest at Mr. Sheaffer’s jokes receives the highest marks. This is the only wray in which we can account for Weinshenk’s high grades. Mr. Shorts is the lady’s man of this crowd as he falls for the directress of every play that comes to the school and endeavors to play Beau Brummel to the several lady members of the faculty in the meantime. Mr. Weide is another social butterfly. The Elliott sisters chase “Henry” over a ten mile track every morning and pitilessly leave him by the curb to shiver in the driving blasts or gasp in the burning sun. Mr. Conner draws his salary for walking the halls and looking like a traffic cop. I wish you could have seen Mr. Baer and Mr. Hoon at the Junior-Senior Banquet. They were regular “cut-ups”. Miss Riffer, when not telling Kirk howr to run the Senior class, finds time to assign lessons for her pupils. The things I have mentioned are mild compared to what I might betray about the rest and even some more of the same, but I am a little afraid to say more now as Graduation is still twenty-four hours hence. The class of twenty-two is responsible for starting a fine library for us, but as Goldberg says “it doesn’t mean anything”. It takes about ten minutes worth of red tape to get in and as much more to account for being there when you are in. Why, I hunted in vain all one afternoon trying to find a Motion Picture Magazine or a Cosmopolitan. How can we be expected to keep up with current events? People speak of our fine orchestra and explain what a wonderful organization it is. This is all bunk. They raise the roof for three hours of the day, yet we are supposed to study. How can anyone concentrate when such a din is pounding in one’s ears. The only redeeming feature about this orchestra is that the director has red hair. You have heard of our charming cafeteria where you can get anything you want. You also get many things you don’t want, mostly in the soup. The janitor force is said to be very efficient but what they are efficient in remains to be seen. We are going to put plush seats in the janitor room so Lennox and Jones will not become tired from sitting all day on wooden chairs. The only time they move is when they go to cash their pay checks. Did you hear about our large athletic field? 74 It will be a beauty by the time it is discovered. Do you know that we were forced to cancel our home track meets because no field was available? When the school was built it was supposed to be fireproof and, now, if they catch you smoking they kick you out. They might as well have built the thing of straw for all the good it does us. Tell me. how can the young men and young women be expected to enter good society with no practice in fine arts? You know how a boy looks in a suit he has outgrown. It is the same way with us. Our home auditorium will no longer hold us and we must hold our Commencement at Junior High. Speaking of the Junior High—it is just like a new baby. Superintendent Graham and the school board have forgotten there is a Senior High. They have lavished presents and praise upon little brother, while we older ones have been sadly neglected, and little by little are being forced out into the cold, cruel world, and in forty-eight hours we will all be digging for ourselves. It is a fact that the fourth year Latin class had to buy it’s own books. It is not fair for the schoolboard, as our foster-parents, to pamper its youngest, but, then, personally, I am in favor of getting along without a school board anyhow. Alas! I am afraid to say more. Even now I see the storms of wrath gathering upon your brows and flashes of fire darting from your eyes. And yet I am satisfied that I have done my work well. I have not mentioned Ralph Gardner’s silken locks, but, nevertheless, I feel that my mission has been accomplished. And now as Alf Tennyson says: . “Forgive these wild and wandering cries, Confusions of a wasted youth;; Forgive them where they fail in truth, And in your wisdom make me wise.” Pax Vobiscum. 75 DOES EDUCATION PAY? ROBERT PRESTON We are living today in an intellectual world. A vast majority of the people in all civilized countries possess a fair education, while many are high school, college, or university graduates. So great has become the desire for intellectual attainments, that young people willingly undergo every sacrifice in order to attend school, that they may stand in the front ranks of intelligent society and make their marks in the world. When young people reach a certain age, they commence to ask the question, “Does education pay? Shall I go on or shall I stop? Shall I continue the educational training I have received so far in life, or shall I call my education finished and turn my thoughts to other fields of activity?” Years ago, each human being went through a period of preparation followed by a distinct and separate period of life work. When such a person left school, his education w'as finished, but now’ w'ell developed men and women allow' their education to cease, only when life ceases. We no longer attempt to separate our years into two periods, one of training and the other of work. We hold rather, that work should begin in the period of training and that training should continue throughout the whole period of active work. That education pays the professional man no one doubts, but does it pay those who do the common things in life? Does it pay the great majority of the human family who do the physical work of the w'orld? Years ago, men seriously debated this question, and some claimed that people who must earn a living by manual labor wrere better off if they had very little education as otherwise they would be discontented with their lot. That idea has passed w’ith their generation. That idea has passed out of the minds of nearly everyone. We know’ well that far more pleasure can be secured in life by having a liberal education and enjoying good books, good paintings, and appreciating all the beauties of nature around us. By a good education, I do not necessarily mean that one must be trained in a college or university. Some of our best scholars did not have the advantage of a common school education. Abraham Lincoln w’ent to school less than one year, when we add all of the separate days together, yet he was such a student of men and books that he showed himself the equal intellectually, of the best college trained men in the land. ” ' €3NE-CA-HIS The question uppermost in the minds of most young people is, “What shall I do to make a living?” New occupations are coming up daily and old ones are dying out. No man can be certain that the trade or profession he learns will not in a few years absolutely cease to exist, and he will be forced to turn his attention to a new field of endeavor. Theodore Roosevelt told a story about his grandfather, who said that he was in a line of business that would last forever. He was a manufacturer of sickles. He thought that as long as men lived in this world they would grow grain and as long as grain was grown, they would need sickles to cut it. Soon a man invented a cradle which would cut ten times as much grain as a sickle, and then another brought on the reaper, which would do ten times as much as the cradle, so the manufacture of sickles disappeared. See all the great industries that have sprung up recently. The automobile was in its infancy twenty years ago, and today hundreds of thousands of men are employed in its manufacture and repair. The phonograph, the flying machine, the wireless, the radio, the farm tractor and hundreds of other industries have sprung up in a dozen years offering new sources of employment to millions of people, while old industries pass away. Well trained minds easily adjust themselves to new surroundings and in the uncertain conditions prevailing in this world, that is the best we can do. The right kind of an education pays well, That is, the kind that trains the mind and enables one to readily grasp a new subject. Be students. Whether you are at home or in school or in any line of business, always be students. Keep up with the times. Learn to read the periodicals and newspapers. Study the politics of the country. Learn about the stock market so that you will know what is meant by margin, selling short, bulls, and bears. Study the financial columns published in nearly every daily newspaper, and you soon will become interested in the financial affairs of the nation. Never have the erroneous idea that your education is finished. There is a great deal of charm in the intellectual world aside from barely making a living. Compare the amount of pleasure an educated person gets from a journey, with that obtained by an ignorant person. The former knows the historic events which took place in the country through which he travels, knows of the industries, the foliage, the mineral deposits, and the class of people who occupy it. He is filled with a constant interest and every hour has the pleasure of adding to his store of knowledge, while the ignorant man knows none of these things. He sees the mountains, the forest, the cities, and takes an interest in the outward appearance of things, but knows and cares nothing else about them, thereby missing most of the pleasure a cultivated mind would receive. Any boy or girl will be better for close association with the greatest and purest of the ages. What boy’s blood is not stirred and his nature ennobled when he reads of the knightly adventures of Ivanhoe? 77 3 IN L-LA-Hlk r His ideals become higher if he reads Ruskins “Kings Treasures” understanding . There are few girls who do not see a new nobility of womanhood as they read “Queens Gardens” in Ruskins’ “Sesame and Lilies.” No one of us can strive so ferociously to enrich ourselves at our neighbor’s expense, nor thirst for revenge after we have read the “Merchant of Venice” and the celebrated “Mercy Speech” contained therein. Children remember their duties to their mothers and fathers and strive to show the gratitude to their parents that they should, after reading the pitiful story of “King Lear”. So aside from all thought of the financial gain that can be secured from an education, it is extremely important that such a one, no matter what his situation in life may be, should put forth his best efforts to secure all the intellectual culture possible, as it will help to make his life happier and better. —Robert Preston.

We did not claim that we were the only class. We simply went to work, and the entire school has come to realize our influence—and though they have not confessed it—they are confident that we are the model class of Ne-Ca-Hi. The way in which we were greeted on entering our High School meant much to us in the way of encouragement. The genial spirit of our teachers enabled us to feel that they were our friends. Very shortly after our entering, the Seniors gave us a reception, which was a most enjoyable affair, and deeply appreciated by every member of the class. In 1922 we entered as Sophomores. When we were Freshmen, we thought as Freshmen, we spake as Freshmen, we acted as Freshmen, but when we became Sophomores, we put away Freshmen things. Naturally, a year older, and having travelled the High School pathway a year, we felt our responsibility a little more keenly. We owe much of our success during our Freshmen and Sophomore years to the wise supervision of Mr. Frank L. Burton. To write our history as a Junior Class, is to write a very important volume. No living writer is versatile enough to describe fittingly ihe achievements of the Junior class in its many fields of activity. It would take a Ruskin to do justice to its success in art. Carlyle alone would be capable of interpreting our literary masterpieces, while the genius of Homer could not fittingly describe our deeds of heroism. For several years the faculty has been selecting the brightest and fairest of students, and has reserved them for graduation in 1924. Our members for the past three years have not only excelled in class work, but also have proven themselves to be among the leaders in athletics, for in every year of our High School career, we have been represented in Varsity basketball, track and football. Special mention should be made of the successful play “All Aboard”. This play required 150 persons for the cast, and these people were easily found among the members of our class. The people must have recognized the ability of this class, as was demonstrated in the sale of tickets. The amount received was $1992.50. The net proceeds amounted to $762.32, this being the largest amount ever taken in by a single class. Our class reached the climax of its achievements when they entertained the Seniors in the annua' Junior-Senior banquet. Four hundred forty sat down at the banquet table, and the fellowship that characterized the event shall long be remembered. As Juniors, the class wishes to express its appreciation of Miss Wimer’s thoughtful guidance and its regret that she will not be with us in our Senior year. With this record, we believe that we have contributed much to our splendid school, and we, as members, believe we have closed a most successful year. The officers who have so successfully carried on the work of the Junior class are: President, Homer Allen; Vice-President, Judson Heess; Secretary, Emmy Lou Dickey; Treasurer, Walter McGee; Cheer Leader, Brendon Hanlon; Class Supervisor, Miss Wimer. t3NE-CA-HIS Ta nigHeview.

First is the bud, the infant; then comes the half-opened bloom, the school-child; next is manhood, the full-blown flower; lastly comes old age, when one receives the fruits of a well-spent life-time. Our period of schooling is just the same. When, in the fall of 1921 our class entered this institution of learning, we were, indeed, a tight-closed bud; which gave only a faint forecast of the life concealed within. In our first year we did not enter much social life, the only affair of this nature for us being the Senior-Freshman reception, given in our honor in the first school month, and our own picnic just before vacation began. Our scholastic standards were high, however, and our athletics were also very good. When we entered this year, the period of the half-opened flower, our real worth was recognized. With enthusiasm we recommenced studies, our work and play, and now, as we draw to the close of our second year in this school, we may feel justly proud of our achievements. This class has been well represented on the Honor Roll each month, and we are expecting to have even more brilliant students in the future. We have had members on the Varsity football and basketball teams, and two of the four members of the relay team that ran for our school in the recent Penn track meet were Sophomores. There have been no social events for us thus far, but we expect to end this year by a party or a picnic. So now that we know our abilities, our weak and strong points, we may give a hearty cheer for our past happy life, and embark confidentially on the boat that will carry us over the unknown but promising sea of the future.

This play equals any other given in the high school and is another one of many successes which have marked the progressive path of the Seniors. This farce was a real mirth provoker. The story centers about a young man supposed to be a budding young maiden. Being a girl and impersonating one are two different matters, so Francis Felton discovered before he received the million promised by an irritable uncle. A telegram announcing the arrival of the uncle and Philander Fil-more, the intended husband for Francis, causes Richard Tate, a young lawyer, to devise a plan by which Francis should obtain the million and he, one hundred dollars a week as lawyer’s fee. Many complications arise when the uncle visits his niece who to meet the occasion dons female attire and a golden wig, but none is so embarrassing as the explanations to Dora Hale and Alice Malcom, engaged to Frank and Dick. At Happy Valley Junction, where Francis’ marriage to Philander is to take place, other complications set in for Philander, unfortunately for him, meets Sarah Ann Mullen, whom he had unceremoniously left twenty years previously. Dick becomes a jailbird but is aided by the sheriff for Sarah Ann’s sake. Finally, after many explanations Frank removes the wig and becomes a nephew instead of a niece, but “nobody ever fooled uncle” for he had always wanted a nephew anyway. The cast deserved much praise for presenting this farce in such a realistic and professional manner. Nothing of the amateur entered into “His Uncle’s Niece.” It was a finished production. As Dora, we meet Viola Johns who is well known to the public for her ability in past productions. Elizabeth Hopkins took the part of Alice in a creditable manner. Sarah Ann Mullen was created by Elizabeth Owens whom we have not seen before in scholastic productions but who nevertheless achieved a pronounced success. As the Uncle, Howard Kirk displayed a keen insight into the character of an old gentleman and kept the audience in a roar. Russel Hoff-meister admirably characterized the “humble but wise” Philander. Two of the cast who carried difficult roles with flying colors were Sam Perry as the Sheriff, and Frank Brenneman as Timothy Haye, natives of Happy Valley Junction; both of whom acquired a drawl and an accent, and merit the applause so generously accorded them. James Harlan as Francis and Stanley Ew’ens as Dick, took their roles like trained artists. They need no introduction to the New Castle public, having starred in other school plays. Between the second and third acts three dances were given: Wooden Soldiers, Magic Dolls, and Jumping Jacks’ Jubilee. These were directed by Miss Gilbert and added much to the success of the production. The class is greatly indebted to Miss Hartsuff who directed the play and it is to her that we owe our great success. THE JUNIOR PLAY — “ALL ABOARD” CSNE-CA-HI rs “ALL ABOARD” The loss of a set of false teeth was the incident around which the plot of “All Aboard”, the Junior class play centered. Billy Brady, football hero, finds himself aboard the S. S. Florida—toothless. Billy’s predicament is the result of leaving five teeth on the gridiron and losing his false set one half hour out at sea. Among the passengers are the vivacious Beatrice Sloane and Billy’s rival, Johnny Grady. In desperation Billy steals teeth. Frantic, toothless passengers search for teeth. Eventually harmony is restored and Billy is able to win Beatrice. The play was a success from both a financial and a dramatic viewpoint. The cast of one hundred fifty was divided into ten chorus groups, including, Tourists, Antidotes, Yachting Girls, Sailor Girls, Sailor Men, Cabin Boys, Sweethearts, Bumble Bees, Answers, and Overall Girls. The net proceeds realized by the class were $762.32, the largest amount cleared on a class play for many years. THE CAST Billy Brady ...................

THE HIGH SCHOOL BAND THE H I-Y CLUB Hl-Y CLUB Ne-Ca-Hi’s enviable reputation for clean sportsmanship has been upheld and abetted by the Hi-Y Club probably more than by any other such organization in the school. Organized upon the ideals of a cleaner personal life and service for others, the club has done much to raise the standards of New Castle High School. The year of nineteen hundred twenty-two and tw’enty-three proved to be an unusually successful season for the club. We opened the year with twenty-six members, twenty-four of our number having graduated with the class of twenty-two. Many candidates for membership in the club immediately filed applications, but our roll was completed but slowly. The greatest judgment and care were observed by the cabinet in selecting new members, only the cleanest-living fellows of the High School being tendered the glad hand of fellowship. Our Hi-Y club may be reasonably proud of its accomplishments. At the present time we are the one and only standard Hi-Y in the state of Pennsylvania. Another novel and unique feature has been added to our organization during the past year which distinguishes us from all similar clubs the world over. An electrical apparatus designed by Victor Patterson for use in the initiation services, is now in the possession of the club and is believed to be the only such design in existence. It consists of a beautiful arrangement of colored bulbs, a white cross surrounded by a red triangle, the insignia of the Hi-Y. During the year nineteen hundred twenty-two and twenty-three the members of the club were treated to many unusually entertaining and educational lectures. A fine program was arranged whereby the services of the best and most interesting speakers were obtained. The following men addressed several talks to the fellows: Rev. Homer B. Davis, Rev. Herbert Ellis, Rev. G. A. Jelbert, Attorney Reynolds, Dr. Patterson, Robert Meermans, Rev. S. J. Purvis, Rev. C. M. Smail, and Kid McCoy. On January eleventh fraternal activities were opened when we were banqueted royally by the Girls’ Club. We returned the favor on April sixth when we entertained the Girls at our room in the Y. M. C. A. building. The most notable of our achievements was the successful M. U. F. campaign of March twentieth to twenty-third which was sponsored by our club. It was conducted for the students of the school, and its yield can never be reckoned by human agencies. Over one hundred forty fellows were interviewed, and of these one hundred three took some definite “forward” step. We owe much of the success of this campaign to the sterling and enthusiastic leadership of Doctor Herbert Ellis. The fellows who so ably directed our activities during the past year were: Wesley Rose ......................... President Clare McClymond ................ Vice-President Hugh Sturdy......................... Secretary James Harlan....................... - Treasurer V. F. Patterson..........-............ Advisor THE ADELPHIC LITERARY SOCIETY ADELPHIC LITERARY SOCIETY During the past year the Adelphic Literary Society excelled in many ways. After the first few weeks the society became definitely organized and regular meetings were held every two weeks. Although the programs were not regular the first of the year, toward the latter part of the first semester new life seemed to be instilled into the members. Under the competent supervision of Mr. O. J. Sheaf-fer, the club was able to reach the height of its achievement. It is the purpose of the society to promote public speaking, and to give each member a clear understanding of parliamentary practice. The officers for the past year were as follows: 1st Semester 2nd Semester William Usselton.......President............

Its purpose is to give to its members a better understanding of the French language, to show how the French conduct similar club meetings, and to promote a more general interest in the study of French. All French students are eligible to membership. There have been several successful and interesting programs including that of Madame Toler who spoke on “Education in France”; that of M. Burlette whose topic was “Louis Seize”; and that of Home Talent Day, the last being in the nature of a musicale in which members of the club took part. The officers for this year were: President ............ Elizabeth Mackey Vice-President.....-........ Mary Winter Secretary ............. Elizabeth Hopkins 108 LA- THE COMMERCIAL CLUB THE COMMERCIAL CLUB One of the most outstanding and progressive organizations in the high school during the past year has been the Commercial Club. The purpose of this club has been to further and promote the welfare of its members. Although late in organizing much good has been accomplished and in every respect the organization has been successful. Our meetings have been very profitable. We have had the pleasure of hearing a number of local business men who have been successful individually and who have so graciously given up some of their time to point out to us obstacles that might hinder our progress. On March 23, we gave a school party, to which the members of all three classes were invited. The affair was reported a great success and a good time was enjoyed by all. We sincerely feel that we have profited and that our efforts and time have been well invested. Much credit is due to the untiring efforts of our supervisor, Mr. Ellis, who has worked faithfully to have all our undertakings a success.

HAUG. DAY. 1922—ATHLETICS—1923 The current year in athletics has easily been the most successful in the history of the Senior High School. In football our team was probably the peer of any team which ever represented our school. The undisputed championship of Northwestern Pennsylvania was won on Thanksgiving Day in a notable game with Grove City High School before probably the greatest crowd which ever witnessed an athletic contest in New Castle. A scoreless tie prevented us from winning all our games. The outstanding players were Capt. Hamill, Ex-Capt. Sands, March, Preston, Haug. Heess, McCleary, Capt.-Elect Monath, Smith, Stone, and Sargeant. In basketball we finished in a tie for second place in our section of the W. P. I. A. L. and closed the season most auspiciously by winning the amateur championship of Lawrence County in a series of three games with the Castle Five team. Capt. Stone, Capt.-Eleet Hartman, J. Heess, Kirk, Preston, and Nolte were the bright luminaries in basketball. A league of some sixty basketball teams in the Physical department and the class league, the championship of which was won by the Senior class ream furnished healthful recreation for a large number of boys in addition to developing varsity players for future years. Track, this year, has interested 3ome 75 boys and is rapidly coming to the fore as one of the most important of athletic activities. Our relay team ran to second place in its event in the Penn Relays at Philadelphia, and our team as a whole finished first among all the high schools entered in the Carnegie Tech Interscholastic meet. Capt. Wesley Rose, Ralph Day, Tommy March, Philip Sargeant and Chester Dean are our most noteworthy performers. Class football and class basketball also interested many of the boys. A very creditable tennis team represented our school, so a large majority of our boys were actively engaged in some form of athletics. Financially our year has been very successful also and our teams have been completely equipped and have been a source of pride to us both in appearance and in performance. Our crying need of a playing field or athletic stadium seems about to be realized at last as a committee of alumni are at the present time actively engaged in preliminary work with that object in view. We earnestly ask all alumni, former students and friends of the High School to aid in this movement. The success of our teams and the large number who have participated in athletics this year have been due in a large measure to P. H. Bridenbaugh. Mr. Briden-baugh came to us as an experienced and successful coach and he has fully lived up to his reputation. The aims of those who were largely instrumental in bringing him to New Castle are already practically realized. Not only his knowledge of coaching, but his ability to handle boys, to inspire confidence and to get results have been the greatest factors in the success of our athletics this year. We can hardly close this brief resume of 1922-1923 without acknowledge with grateful thanks the “feeds” given our boys by Miss Cleo Bryan, Mr. and Mrs. II. G. Preston, Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Rigby, Mr. and Mrs. P. H. Bridenbaugh, Miss Dorothy Edmunds. Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Stone and Dr. and Mrs. S. M. Perry. The fellowship and associations of these banquets are our most prized possessions. To Hamill, Sands, Stone, Preston, March, Rose, McCleary, Nolte, Kirk, and the other boys who have played for Ne-Ca-Hi for the last time, we wish to express our appreciation and admiration of your achievements. We shall miss you tremendously, but we wish for you in the years to come even greater success than you attained in old No-Ca-Hi. FOOTBALL SCHEDULE N. C. H. S 40—New Wilmington 0 N. C. H.

GIRLS’ VARSITY BASKETBALL Ne-Ca-Hi was well represented by the Girls’ Basketball team this year. The girls met some of the best teams in this part of the country and, although they sometimes met with defeat, every game was a fight from start to finish. The girls who received varsity letters are: Byers, Gillespie, Bur- nett, Hopkins, McClure, Allsopp, Patterson, McGoun, Offutt, Johnson, Fisher, Beighley and Leslie. The results of the games were: New Castle won 6, lost 4.

The Senior Quintet won the championship of the Class Basketball League, their aim for the last four years. They defeated the Juniors, champions of the first half, in two out of three championship games. The Junior lads won the first game by a 17-16 score. The Seniors fought hard, and not until the final whistle could the outcome be decided. The Seniors took the second and third games by a 25-14 score and a 17-16 score, respectively. The second game was a comparatively easy victory for the upperclassmen, but they almost lost the final and deciding game when the Juniors made an unexpected rally in the last quarter. A great deal of credit is due Ralph Gardner, who ably coached the team. SENIOR GIRLS’ BASKETBALL TEAM Bock Row LEVINE. COTTON. HUMBLE. BEADEL. LESLIE. Front Row FISHER. MECKLlNG (Captain). DAVENPORT.
