Phillips High School VOL. XXX MAY, 1931 No. 1 EDI'TORIALS HE PHILLIPIAN Board wishes to thank the contributors to the PHILLIP- IAN vwho have helped to make the paper interesting, and the advertisers who have aided the paper financially. IT is doubtful whether we stop to think in the rush of studying and taking part in outside activities just how much benefit and help we receive from townspeople. Let us take for an example our speaking contests. In high schools there are two types of speakers, those who don't try, and those who are interested in the speak- ing and try to do their best. The majority of pupils in Phillips High School are of the latter type. That means that very many of the high sclhool pupils must get help on their selections. The teachers help some, but others, either because the teachers are too busy .to help, or because they prefer to go to the townspeople. Pupils 'who go out- side of school for coaching are quick to find it among our willing townspeople, and the fact that wwe have so many cups in our trophy case speaks for the ability of our outside coaches. There are people in town without whose help we could not put on as Hnis-hed dramatic productions as we do. They are willing to spend evening after evening with a group of high school people, drilling them -to take their parts in the play. On the night of the performance they are will- ing to come early to dress and make up t-he characters. All of this takes time and un- limited patience. Our townspeople give both with lavish hand. Several of the men here in town were ready and willing this last winter to drive over rough roads in the snow and cold, so that our basketball boys might get to the games. They weren't obliged to do this. They did it 'because they wanted to see our school rank with other schools in basket- ball. We could go on and on naming the various ways in which the townspeople help the school. Space is too limited, how- ever, but we want to say in behalf of the school that every one in High School is grateful to the people for what they have done for the school. R. C. L. DEBATING in Phillips High School in the past four years has become a subject of increasing interest and in this field Phillips has established an enviable record. Teams from Phillips 'have won seventeen out of twenty debates and Robert Lawrence, for 'two years has won .the hundred dollar scholarship as best individual in the league. But debating history dates back farther than four years. For several years pre-. vious to this time Phillips was represented by good teams, and, although not as suc- cessful as later teams, they were working up an interest and paving the way for later victories. In 1927 Kingfield High School was the first high school in Franklin County to be represented at Bates. But our turn came the next year when, winning both prelimi- nary debates over Kingfield and Strong, Montford Libby, Elaine Badger, Robert Lawrence, and Cecil Voter carried our school colors to Bates for the first time, where they were one of the four schools to reach the finals. In 1929 our success was even greater. The school was represented by Robert Lawrence, Everett Harnden, Montford Libby, and Dorothea Vose. All competing . 6 THE PHILLIPIAN teams were 'defeated and Phillips brought home the debating cup denoting state championship, and Robert Lawrence his first scholarship as best individual debater. Debating was firmly established as one of the worth-while activities in our school. Last year Kingfield and Strong lwithdrew from the league and a new triangle was formed for the preliminary debates, con- sisting of Farmington, Mexico, and Phillips. The team was composed of Robert Lawrence, Faris Dunham, Dorothea Vose, and Wendell Whitney. For the third year in succession we won the preliminary de- 'bates and entered the finals at Bates Col- lege where the affirmative team lost to Leavitt, last year's cup winner. Phillips was third in the league and Robert Law- rence again was awarded- the hundred dollar scholarship. Robert well deserved this honor. This year Everett Harnden returned to the team and with Julia Pratt made an- other winning combination. At the present iwriting we are entitled to enter the semi- finals at Bates for the fourth time, and whether we reach the finals or not we feel that our season has been very successful. , D. M. V. SUGGESTED ALTERATIONS AT THE COMMUNITY HOUSE HE success of the High School Bas- ketball team this last season has -directed the attention of many to the facilities for winter recreation which have been provided for the young people of the community. The Community House has 'been used for basketball for two years and a team has been developed which stands .among the best of the teams from small high schools in the state. This team has been developed in the face of adverse con- ditions due largely to the fact that the playing court has been very small. There seems to be no question in the minds of many as to the need of more suit- able facilities for the young people of the village. Many of the surrounding towns have made provision for the recreational and physical life of young people by pro- viding halls and gymnasiums for their use. Since basketball has been taken up the Community House has been used six days in the week for a period of nearly seven months each year. Membership tickets have been held by a large number of boys and girls in .high school and by many of the grammar school boys. These boys have been so interested in the game that without coaching they have been aible to d-evelop a first class team winning practi- cally all their games. It has been suggested that funds be raised to alter the Community House so that better provision could be made for recreation. If the building were increased in length by about 26 feet as shown in the sketches it lwould increase th-e area of the hall by sixty per cent. This would make possible a larger court and at the same time provide adequate seating capacity for those who would attend the games. Even with the limited facilities of the last year the attendance has in some cases been over one hundred and there is no question but that if seats were provided the games would be well attended. By excavating under the portion of the building which would be added there would be opportunity for sanitary ar- rangements, and shower baths and dress- ing rooms and lockers could be provided. This would be especially convenient in case of home games. In most of the places where t-he 'boys play they are fur- nished with adequate accommodations but so far they have not been able to provide such for visiting teams. Up to the present time the d-evelopment of basketball has been due largely to the High School, the Boy Scouts and a few interested citizens wiho have given gener- ously of their time and money that the movement might be a success. A similar interest on the part of a larger group of individuals would provide a place for rec- reation of which the community might be proud. It is hoped that something may be -done during the present summer so that in the fall the young people may have the sort of facilities which they deserve. W. H. C.

THE JUNIORS HE virtues of this Junior Class Although 'tis far above my skill I'll tell to you as best I cang I lack the power but not the will. Wendell Whitney id have you know That he 's a self-made mang That in ev'rything he does excel That that is fate's chief plan. Faris D. we must admit Profitably spends her hours For through the woods and fields she strolls Gathering Herbs and i-lowers. At Rena we 'll but shake our head, And give for admonition That night 's the time to be in bed And not for wild ilirtation. Ruth's condition we deplore, She 's getting weak and thin, Thinking of a southern shore Till she's just bone and skin. An aviator's life for Floyd With all the thrills it brings For it 's the only way he knows Of riding with the Wings. Madelyn keeps Cupid busy Shooting forth his darts. For this fair lass we must admit Is a breaker of men's hearts. About Leola we hear things shocking Although we know they can 't be true For who would think of her as walking Or riding 'til clock Struck two? Delmer we 'd know as Rena's brother Meet him where'er we might For he just like his sister Takes pleasure in the CKjnight. Phebe seems demure and sober, Yet we're told her pleasures run, Not alone to solving problems, But to breaking hearts for fun. Henry thinks that all the girls Are just a nuisance here, That earth would be a better place If they were off this sphere. For Elinor we 'd only say That she is very Fine But when the sun brings forth a Ray She says, f'Don't touch! 'tis mine! Norman Field's great specialties Are athletes and the girls, And his heart is all a-flutter When hewspies their fetching curls. Mildred is a most fine girl With dimples very fetching, With hair so dark all done in curls And a smile so very catching. Christine.plays the piano And Bessie's' a Girl Scout true, We wish we had more like them For there are very few. A bright lad's Erland Fraser And quite distinguished toog He takes the greatest pleasure In robbing Grammar School. To Marshall's fate we are resigned Since he seems past all aidg For he will end a bachellor As I will die old maid. D. M.

T does not seem so very long ago that we entered Phillips High as Fresh- men, but in reality it has been almost two years. During that .time our class has lost four members, but although we have de- creased in numbers probably most of us have increased in knowledge. There are fifteen in the class now, and we hope there will be fifteen in two years. Thereiare some very line athletes in the class of '33. Probably Red White is the best. He has .won the pole vault in the track meet for two years, and he also has a basketball medal. Bus Stinch- field is a very good forward in basketball and is also good in baseball. Hollis Leavitt is a star third baseman, and Ger- LLIPIAN 15 ald Moores is one of the best out-fielders we have on our baseball team. There are two especially good speakers in our class. They are Montress Wing and Elizabeth Russell. Last year Mon- tress got into the preliminary speaking, and this year they both did. Our class is wide-awake. We like hikes and other outdoor activities, and have en- joyed many in the past two years. We only hope our next two years will be as happily spent as the last. P. C. S. A SPEAKING 'TwAs the night before speaking When all thru the room, Not a creature was stirring, Not e'en a book worm. The boys they were sulkyg The girls all looked white, For each one was thinking Of that awful night. They would stand on the platform, Survey that vast crowd, Then do just their best, To speak up good and loud. Their throats would be parched, And their two knees would shake, As they stood right up tall, And advanced to meet fate. I tell you it 's no joke, You may bet that I'm right. If you don't believe me, Take my place Monday night. R.

Leisurely Anne un- wrapped the package to draw forth from under the layers of bright tissue an ex- pensive looking box bearing the label of one of Fifth Avenue's most exclusive can-dy shops. Nestling under a ribbon bow lay an unsealed envelope, tl1e contents of which she hastily scanned. U The poor fish! she exclaimed. if Does he think that I vwould eat any candy that the sent me? Why, I 'd sooner starve than taste of Theodore Baxter's candy. And if he thinks that I could do anything but despise him he is mightily mistaken. just then the door of her boudoir again openedg this time to admit her mother. Dear, dear! How ever could I have forgotten! Tomorrow is your Aunt Aga- tha's birthday and I completely forgot to get her anything. I cannot possibly find time to go down town after something, and it must go today. Oh, what shall I do? the last an agonized wail. How would these do? asked Anne, holding out contemptuously the box of candy. I ihave absolutely no use for them, and you know Aunt Agatha is quite partial to can-died fruits. H The very thing! exclaimed her mother, Hit you are sure you don't want them. I have no use for them, positively, replied Anne. Then won't you pack them, for I simply must go to a committee meeting. Oh, all right! Presently Anne, having bathed and breakfasted, was signing a birthday card with tihe names of ther mother and herself. As she was putting it into fits envelope her telephone rang. Dropping the card beside the one which sihe had recently removed from the box of candy, she took up the phone. Hello ! , Yes, this is Anne speaking. 'K That 's great! I'll be right over. Wait until I get there, rw'on't you? But I'll be there in just a minute. Iv'e just got to finish doing up a pack- age. K' All right. 'Byef' Whereupon, seizing the card nearest, she tossed it into her package and hastily did it up without second thought. And that vwas how, on the following morning Miss Agatha opened a box of candy and read an enclosed note which caused her sallow cheeks to take on a fiery hue and her hands to tremble. 'K At last! she breathed. Who would believe! And yet-didn't the card say so? Then' all her work had not been in THE PHILLIPIAN 19 vain. Hadn't she waited tive long, lonely years for this? But who would have sup- posed that he could be so-well, so ardent, when he scarcely seemed to notice her. trick? Ah-it What had turned the must be -. Surreptitiously from the hid- den depths of a dark corner of her dresser drawer she brought forth a shiny enameled object. A vanity case! fAh, Aunt Agat-ha, are you catching on to the wiles of the little feather-brained Hints? I am surprised at youlj 'A This must be it! she exclaimed ex- citedly, for yesterday :when I met him in the hall he positively stared at me. Whereupon, after she had peered -cau- tiously about her three-room .apartment, the spare hand of Miss Agatha was raised 'to her high cheek-bones, where, with a dainty puff, it uncertainly applied a ver- million splash of color to either cheek. 'A My, it certainly does make a differ- ence, she addressed her rellexion. Do you-do you suppose he would like my hair bobbed? CAnd if you could have known Aunt Agatha you would realize how smitten she was to fall to this.j A' But what-what shall I say in reply to his note? Thereupon she sat down at her desk, crushed down the pride that for tive long years had held her in its grip, and, after much thought and more destroying of paper, finally penned the four words, The feeling is mutual. Stealthily, looking this way and that, she crept out into the hall and slipped the note under the door oppo- site. Then she tip-toed back and softly closed her door on the inside, where she stood panting as though she had run up six flights of stairs. When Thomas Brewster returned to his apartment after a delicious but solitary 'dinner he was surprised to find a note tucked under his door. His astonishment grew when he read the short unsigned message. U Now what under the canopy does it mean, and who put it under my door? he asked himself, thoroughly puz- zled. What feeling is mutual? I am sure that I haven't been telling my feelings to anyone-not but what I'd like to tell a certain lady something, though, fwith a sighj. If only she weren't so aristocratic. I don't suppose she has ever even noticed me, except as another obstacle in the hall. 'K But who could have put this note under my door. Perhaps Miss Stanley might have seen somebody snooping about, if only I dared ask her. Certainly it could do no harm. Consequently he crossed the hall and timidly rapped on the opposite door. Presently the door opened, and Miss Agatha stood before him. Upon seeing who it was she suddenly blushed furiously 'beneath her rouge. 'fWon't-won't you come in? she stammered. f'Ah! thought she, here he is at last! Now for the great moment ! - 'I I just wanted to ask you if you might have seen someone snooping about in the hall this afternoon. 'I Why I- Have you lost No, I found a queer note under my door, and I didn't know but what you might know something ahout it. Do you? something? Are you insinuating that I have been snooping about your apartment? she asked angrily, in an attempt to evade an- swering directly. Why, certainly not, exclaimed M1'. Brewster, astonished at her vehemence. H But I can't imagine what the note can mean' Suddenly tears of anger and humiliation began to roll down Miss Agatha's cheeks. H And you dare to say that you don't know what that means after you wrote that in- criminating note to me, and sent me a box of candy ! she stormed. Why, my dear! Mr. Brewster took a step nearer, Hwhat are you talking about? Candy! Note! You must be mistaken. 'K Mistaken! You signed your initials to 20 THE PHILLIPIAN it. Are-are you trying to back out of it after so 'humiliating me? Was it just a cruel joke? I can 't imagine what you are talking about, said Mr. Brewster in a puzzled voice. K' Let me see that note. Shamefacedly Miss Agatha brought forth the note, and handed it to him. There! If you didn't write that, I should like to know who did. Mr. Brewster took the note and read the follofwingi Dearest: How can you be so cruel! I cannot stand the suspense any longer. I have waited so long! Give me some sign that you love me as I love you. T. B. As he finished reading, it gradually dawned upon him that Miss Agatha had thought this from him, and had answered by saying, The feeling is mutual. He beamed upon Miss Agatha and said, 4' I 'll have to admit that I didn't send it to you, but I wish I had years ago, for it ex- presses exactly what I have longed to say to you for the past five years. Thereupon -the note and its mysterious author were abandoned for more impor- tant occupations, and Miss Agatha found herself in the exact spot where s-he had so long desired to be. D. M. H. HASTE MAKES WASTE UR English class was studying Poor Richard's Almanac, and our assign- ment was to interpret some of the old maxims in it. I found it very easy and I was making swift progress until I came to, 1' Haste makes waste. I began to reason: If a person hurried, he was at least saving time, so what on earth could he Iwaste? Fate solved my problem. I remember quite plainly that it was the first day of December, a very cold day, and one on which the Physics class was supposed to perform experiments in the laboratory. Our instructor assigned the experiment, told us it was hard, and asked if Miss Vose and Miss Bunnell would please get some ice so that we could start at once, as he was in a hurry. Why the chose me I didn't know, for I wasn't noted for my speed, but we set out, very glad to get a few minutes off. Winifred complained that the ice was dirty, and I made the suggestion that we go 'to the river for some. Winifred agreed, and being careful to keep out of range of the laboratory windows wwe made a dash. I.reached the bank sooner than Wini- fred and with a piece of iron which I had brought for the purpose I began to hack at the ice, meaning to get mine first at all hazzards. Alas! What I thought was bank, wasn't bank at all. My feet slipped and the blue waters of Sandy River closed over my head. Winifred pulled me out and asked me what on eartfh.I fell in for and who Richard was. For I was gasping with the little breath I had left: HP-p-poor Rich- ard was r-r-right. FRIDAY, THE THIRTEENTI-I N a bleak cold night when the wind was ihowling around the trees like a ghost shrieking I was riding on my horse trying to get to the farm before the storm broke. As I drew near the haunted house, I gave Jean the quirt, and tried to get past as quickly as possible. As I got opposite the house my 'hair began to rise for in the window was a lamp. When I reached home I put my horse in the barn and went on trembling limbs to the house. After supper I told my father and mother what I had seen. They looked at each other and then looked quickly away. Later I heard them talking it over, THE PHILLIPIAN 21 and I learned that every three years this same light is seen in the window. My father called up several of the neigh- bors and they decided to fathom the mys- tery. So did I. I put the saddle on Jean and started. I reached there -before the others, left my horse at the 'bottom of the Ihill, and started up. When I reached the top I crept noise- lessly toward the house and peered cau- tiously in the window which 'had the light. Then I laughed to myself and my knees stopped shaking, for sitting in an old arm- chair was the sweetest old lady I had ever SCSU. ' Going boldly up to the front door I knocked, and asked the old lady if I might come in. She placed a chair on the oppo- site side of the fireplace for me and told me her story: Her name was Madame Grave. Fifteen years ago her son had gone away because his sweetheart had been untrue to whim. It was on Friday, the thirteenth, so every three years, on that, date, she 'had left her 'home in the city, come to this old house, and placed a lamp in the window, hoping that some day the light would guide her son back to her. We heard a noise outside and then a knock. I went to the door and just out- side stood a strange man, tall of stature, with black hair and eyes. I-Ie pushed me unceremoniously aside and kneeling placed his head in the lap of the old lady, crying, M'other! I never 'before saw such joy as was re- flected in Madame Grave's eyes. 'AI knew, she said, that that ligiht would guide you home to me sometime, and I am so glad, my son, so gladf' I saw that they had forgotten me, so I went softly out. At the end of the path I met my father and tihe other men. I told them of my experience and I saw them covertly hiding the revolvers which they had brought to fight the ghosts . B. B., '34. OLD HOUSEKEEPERS AND NEW N order to get a true idea of the value of modern improvements, let us close our eyes and let our thoughts drift back to the customs of our ancestors-ac- cepted customs because no one could, at that time, improve them. On a lonely, wooded, country road, twi- light is falling. Set back from the road, which is merely a widened cow-path, is a country farmhouse. It is unpainted and weather-beaten, on one side its slanting roof nearly touches the ground, at the front is a heavy door strengthened with bolts and bars. We enter, and find ourselves in a square, old-fashioned kitchen. At the end of the room is an extremely large fireplace, from the direction of which, in a kettle, hung from a crane over the blazing fire, drifts an appetizing odor. An old woman, moving heavily about the kitchen, 'brings dishes of pewter from a hanging cupboard on one side of the long room, to a table on the other side. Back and forth she travels, and finally, turning to the fireplace, we hear a little click, and s'he has opened the door of a great brick fireplace. From the oven great pans of fbread, and oven over the she draws two makes the trip across the room again to empty the pans. At last the simple meal is prepared but how many 'hundreds of steps has she taken? After supper, taking the one candle from a holder on the shelf, she throws a shawl over her head, and taking a pail, goes out of 'doors and at least a hundred yards down the path to the well, where, a small bucket being the only means of drawing the water, she has to lift it up full many times, before the pail is filled. Then slowly she travels back with the pail into the house. ' To heat the Water, the kettle 'having been removed from the crane, she hangs 22 THE PHILLIPIAN the pail over the fire and soon the water is bubbling merrily. f Meanwhile she has taken the only broom she has, made of rough bristly hides, as a cover for cloths bound together. With this, she sweeps the rough floor, partly covered by rugs which she, herself, has braided or hooked. Then she dips it in hot water and dusts off the spinning wheel, and sweeps the cobwebs from the beams aiboveg finally she shakes the home- spun blankets which cover the rude bunk in one corner. Then, exhausted lby her long, hard dayis work, she sits down by the ire to wait for her husband who is still at work, and soon is dozing peacefully. Next let our fancies drift to a modern apartment. Here we see a young housekeeper in her cheery little home with its 'bright color schemes, its devices to 'save time and labor, the best possible use of space, and the furniture convenuiently arranged to save steps, and everything made as easy as possible for her. Our young housekeeper rises in the morning, prepares a light breakfast, mak- ing coffee, toasting bread, etc., and even washing the dishes afterward, all by elec- tricity. If she wishes to wash or iron, electric appliances are always ready. Even the 'spring and fall rhousecleaning, which her grandmother took three or four days to do, is done in a single afternoon by our modern housekeeper. Indeed, elderly people have been heard to say that the younger generation is growing indolent because they have so lit- tle to do. But if there are machines for everything, then, :why not use them? y G. W. W.. '33, A STORY HE train was rumbling through a small town of the west and Betty was wondering how' she would like it. There was one reason in particular why she should try to do her best. A few years before, .her aunt wtho was very rich had died. She had said in her will that her fortune and fine home should go to Elizabeth Wilkins if she proved that she wasscapalble of earning her living by the time she was twenty-one. If not it would go to a certain charitable institution. Since Betty's father was dead she felt that it was her duty to do this for her mother. So she had obtained the position as teac-her of a country sclhool in Chinapee in the mountainous district of Montana. She started out in high spirits with visions of a log 'schoolhouse with a cheery' stove in one corner and especially lhad she thought of the background and how she would deco- rate it. With these thoughts in mind she dozed and ha-d' a dream of her schoolhouse in winter. All of a sudden she awoke. The porter was tapping h-er shoulder and say- ing: Chinapee Junction's next station, Missf' Bet-ty picked up her that and magazines and prepared to leave the fwarm car. In a few minutes the train stopped in front of a small, shabby station and Betty got off. There were several horses standing around but no one was in sight. She asked 'herself why she was disap- pointed. Had she expected someone or a large nunfber of people to Welcome her? Where was the home of the people with whom she was to board? A lonely feeling came over her as slhe stood al-one on the platform and watched the train vanish in the distance. She al- most wished that she was in 'her humble home witlh her mother. Then she knew that she must not turn to be a coward. Her friends had all told her that she could not do it. She would show them. About that time a team appeared around the curve. She could see a white horse and a young man. He drove up in front THE PHI of the station and stopping in the yard said to Betty Ein a western drawl: A' Guess you 're the new school teacher? Iym Nick Keen. Mrs. Jones sent me to get you. Are those bags yours? Better bundle up warm. It 'sa long ways up to the ranch. 1 f Very soon Betty was in the sleigh and the lhorse which she learned was called Dample was dashing along the road at a merry pace. Nick told 'her quite a bit about the schoolhouse and pupils. She learned that :boys and girls 'went to school until they were eighteen or nineteen. He went when Phe was not too busy. His de- scription of the schoolhouse was not as she had hoped and she felt a bit disap- pointed. Anyway she determined to ac- complish what she had set out to do. Sfhe had dreamed that Chinapee would be a small town with little white houses but her surprise was great. Tihere was a storehouse, general store, and several shabby dwellings. Disappointment was written all over her face. Nick sensed it and said, Guess this is-nit 'what you were expecting, is it? Betty admitted that she was disap- pointed. At that moment they turned the curve and the ranch 'house came into view. It was a large, wooden, unpainvted struc- ture. The corrals and -barns, on the back side of the house, were also unpainted. Mrs. Jones met them at the door. She was a motherly sort of person and Betty liked her at once. Sihe ate a small supper and immediately went to bed as she was very tired. She cried herself to sleep and wished for the twentieth time that she had her brother, Nick, who ihad been stolen many years before. The next day Nick took Betty to the scihoolihiouse. It was a small red building and the wooden benches were covered with initials and writing. About 8.30 the pupils began to arrive. They :were very curious about the new teacher. At 9 o'clock when Betty rang the bell she found LLIPIAN 23 twenty-five pupils of all sizes assembled inthe yard. Ben Kenniston, the bully of th-e school, was the las-t to enter. He 'had made his braggs that no teacher could make -him behave. . 'The other pupils thought that what Ben did was all right. Nick had told 'her of Ben and his actions. It was evident that Ben had no inten- tion' of behaving. He' threw chalk ,rand did funny things to make the others laugh. In short he was very unruly. George Bacheldor, one of the smaller pupils, started out to 'the waste paper basket. When he was opposite Ben he fell down. Everybodyg knew that :Ben had tirifpped him up. Betty 'felt 'that her time had come. Ben, she said in a stern voice, you may come,out in the floor. A . He sneered and said in a loud whisper, Let 's s-ee her make me. 'lv' 1 Betty didn't know what she would 'do but she hurried up. Nick was ahead of her. He grasped Ben's arms and took him out in the floor :amid the s'houts of the pupils. Ben had found -his equal and he was very much ashamed. After that incident all went along very smoothly. Betty had no more trouble with the pupils. They were devoted to her and always tried to please her. Nick, espe- cially, was progressling very fast in his studies. V One day when Betty's term was nearing its end Nick stayed to get some help. After 'they had finished studying they talked of Nick's future and B-etty told him he must not give up his education after she had gone 'hom-e to her mother. I wish I had a mother to go home to, Nick said -wistfully. But I have no par- ents or I think they must be dead. I was stolen when I wa-s a baby. One morning Mrs. jones found me in their front yard and I have always lived with them. Some day I shall find them, if possible. I am very sorry, Betty stammered. Perhaps I can help you find them. 24 THE PHILLIPIAN I have only a picture of them. Would you like to see it? This is a part of their home. I remember there were many flowers, Nick sa-id eagerly. He took a small locket from his pocket. He opened it and passed it to Betty. She look-ed at it and then at him. Where did you get my parents' pic- ture? Betty asked, ther face very white. Your parents' picture? he asked in a puzzled voice. Why that is my parents' picture. And this is their home. The picture was of her father and motfher and a piece of her back porch. She had a picture like it which her mother had given her. It had been taken many years before in front of the rose bushes. Suddenly the truth dawned on her. He was her baby brother, Nickie, whom the gypsies had stolen. She remembered 'how her father and mother had wept and searched for him. Nickie, she said, laughing and crying at the same time, you are my long lost brother. With her arm about Nick, she told -him about their mother, their home, and her long lost brother. They decided that as Betty's term wias nearing its end they would wait until after school closed and then go east. Nick was very anxious to see his mother :and could hardly wait for the time to come. They decided that the next fall Nick s'hould enter the University. The days sped along until finally the day of departure came. They had made their farewelsls to Mrs. Jones and vwere started home. Betty's heart was singing. Nick thought the train went all too slowly because he was so anxious to see his mother whom he could scarcely remember. When they arrived at Brownville they found Betty's mother waiting at the sta- tion. She was very much surprised to Hnd Bettyls companion a young man in- stead of a girl. Betty had written her that she was bringing somebody home with her. Both Nick and Betty had agreed that it would be better to wait until they got ihome before they told who Nick was. The house soon appeared and Nick cried, 'K It is just as I had imagined it. When they -were inside Betty said eagerly, H Mother, see the present I have brought you. Why, don't you know him? He 's my baby brother, Nickief' Nick tenderlly took his mother in his arms and said, You are just as I had dreamed you would be, Mother. Mrs. Wilkins wept and said, U Could it be my baby boy? Let me see the back of your neck. Nick had a scar there. They looked and there was the scar. A little later Betty was telling her mother how she had discovered Nick and of the locket. .The mother told them how she had clasped it around Nick's neck the day on which he was stolen, just for fun. A' This is the best present I have ever had, she said happily. M. E. B.. 232. HOW TO STUDY T was one of those hot days in Indian summer. The dormitory fairly siz- zled with heat. I threw my Macbeth book on the desk witih as much vehemenc-e as I could muster and lay down on the window seat. Study was useless and term exams wer-e tomorrow! Oh, well, ,perhaps I could rest a while and get cool before be- ginning to study in earnest. I must have gone to sleep, for the next thing I knew it was getting dark and there were several girls in the room. One was sitting on my feet, another had a book propped against the back of my head. I was angry. Informality is all right but I didn't see any need of carrying it so far. Mabel Prescott was speaking in that know-it-all voice of hers: 'fDoesn't it seem sometimes that you just couldn't remember all the things you are supposed to? Did she think she was the only one who had difficulty along those lines? Why talk THE PHILLIPIAN 25 about it? Or if she must talk it over why didn't she give us some solution that would help us absorb all the knowledge 'we were supposed to. I opened my mouth to tell her so when she plunked a pillow over it and continued: HI have found a waythat makes study- ing a snapf, I lay still and 'pricked up my ears. The other girls begged her to tell them about it. UWell, said she, very importantly, w!hen I find that I am at the end of my rope, tired out, and unable to study an- other instant, I go to bed and put my book under 1ny pillow. In the morning I find that the contents of the book have made their way into my head. It is very simple. I-T-79 Bosh! Who ever heard tell of such nonsense! Mabel Prescott, I did give you credit for a little sense. I was thor- oughly angry. And the rest of you girls sitting around swallowing all her foolish- ness! It would serve you better to go back to your rooms and go to bed. I in- tend to right now. I paused significantly and they took the hint. Out they ltrooped and I was left alone. I oughit to finish reading that third act but what an effort it was! I would not do it! I climbed into bed and 'with a shrug I placed the book under my pillow. 5 X Suddenly I seemed to be on a heath walking and talking disitractedly. From behind a rock appeared a withered old h-ag with white hair and a long hooked nose. Shaking a pointed linger at me, she said, Are you Macbeth? I knew I wasn't but I blurted out, Y-yes ! U Follow me. Vl'hat cou-ld I do but follow? She led me into a cave which was as dark as mid- night. In the further corner I saw a tire. Around it were more hags. A huge kettle hung over the flames and every once in a while the witches threw in something. One of them darted quickly behind a rock and dre-xv forth a trembling form. There was something vaguely familiar about it. I drew nearer and peered into the kettle. Could it be! It was! Oh joy! There sat my English teacher in the steaming kerttle! No English tomorrow! No Eng- lish tomorrow! I chanted and danced. Hurray! The English teacher will never trouble us any more! Mean old thing! Helen! Helen Thompson! Wake up! VVake up or I certainly will trouble you! I sat up. Holding-on to my shoulder was our English teacher who was also matron of the dormitory. She was safe after all. She would be! W.

There were 12 men on the squad and at least 10 men were used in the ma- jority of the games. The credit of having such a successful season goes to Coaohi Lester Gattrell, Ass't Coach Willard Cur- tis, and several other men :who braved the wind and storm to take us to the different games. The eight league games are as follows: Nov. 7. We easily beat Strat-ton on our floor 27 to 6 using the whole squad. Stinchlield was hiigh scorer with. 10 points. Nov. 21. We found Stratton to be able to play much better on their own floor and they beat us 15 to 11. Field scored seven points. DEC. 6. We walloped Kingfield 33 to 6 on our floor allowing them to score only one basket. The outstanding players and high scorers were Leavitt and Rowe with eight and six points respectively. DEC. 11. This was one of the league's most exciting games. The second team started and did excellent work. At the half the score was: R. H. S. 14. P. H. S. 11. Then the locals began to climb and, with but a minute and a half left to play, Raymond, Rangeley's star, made good a N foul and there was no more scoring, the game ending 28 to 27 for Rangeley. Ray- mond lvvas high with 12 points. Field was high for the locals with 10. DEC. 17. Although Strong beat us in this game 37 to 24 we gave them quite a bit of opposition. They led us 25 to 9 at the half but in the third quarter we came up within a few points of them, only to slip back again. The stars of the game were Stinchlield, who was high scorer with 14 points, and White whose guarding was spectacular. JAN. 21. Wliien Strong High came to town so did most of the inhabitants of Strong and when the game started there was scarcely enough space to play on. Led by Badger, who scored 11 points in the first half, we shot baskets from all angles and distances to lead 22 to 10 at the half. However, in the second half we lost White, who had been sticking to Norris fStrong's starj like a Hy sticks to fly- paper, via the foul route and we then went to pieces to be nosed out 28-27, as Norris went wild to score 12 points. FEB. 10. At Rangeley we had a close game for three quarters but in the last they surged ahead to win 23 to 19. Prescott of R. H. S. was high with 11 points while Stinchfield chalked up nine for us. FEB. 16. We went to Kingfield to make THE BASKETBALL TEAM THE PHILLIPIAN 31 them suffer their first defeat in their new hall. Using 11 men we easily beat them 30-21. Field was high scorer with 141 points. The results of the non-league games are much better as we lost only one of these, although the teams played 'were just as diliicult. The games were as follows: NOV. 15. Phillips 38, Andover 11. Leavitt was outstanding player. LESTER GATTRELL Basketball Coach JAN. 16. Wilton 28, Phillips 15, Stinchfield tallied six points for us. JAN. 31. Phillips 24, Anson 20. Field was high scorer with 13 points. It should also be added that this was the first time in two years that Anson Academy had been beaten on its own floor. FEB. 4. Phillips 25, No. New Portland 18. Field got 13 points. FEB. 7. Phillips 28, Wilton 26. Badger stored away eight points for us. FEB. 12. Phillips 36, No. New Portland 12. Stinchfield was high with 10. FEB. 13. Phillips 27, F. S. N. S. Re- serves 17. Stinchfield was high with 12. The game at Kingfield completed our schedule until the tournament at F. S. N. s., Feb. 27-Qs. The inter-class games took place Feb. 28. In the first game the Sophomores easily beat the Seniors 65-16. Then, in an overtime period, the Freshmen nosecl out the Juniors 22-20 by scoring a basket in the last few seconds of play. Then the Freshies came back strong in the nnal game to nearly upset the dope and beat the Sophs, lwho were the strong favor- ites. However after a hard, even battle the Sophs finally won 31-30. F. S. N. S. SECOND ANNUAL BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT ln the first game we were matched against our most bitter rival, Strong, who, with the amazing record of having won 15 straight games, was strongly favored to win the tourney. But our team fhaving been firmly impressed that our lives would not be worth a plugged cent if we returned unviictoriousj cooperated so well that we outplayed S. H. S. throughout to win 30- 21. Our guards White and Fairbanks not only guarded perfectly but shot baskets at will. Stinchfield, :who was playing after a week's illness, and Fairbanks were high scorers with 8 points apiece. To quote some of the papers- The Lefwisfon. Sim-Plzillips High 15 Farmington Surprise. The sensational Strong team, winner of 15 straight games, was eliminated in the first round by the mite team from Phillips. The Strong out- Ht had previous-ly defeated the Phillips team twice but today the little band of warriors from the town of Phillips showed superiority in all departments of the game. 32 THE PHILLIPIAN THE TRACK TEAM The Franklin Journal-The big upset was when Phillips High outclassed Strong in the preliminaries, then gave the tourney winners a run for their money in the semi- finals, and Hnally came back in the conso- lation contest to win easily from Anson Academy. . . Strong had previously won twice from Phillips and was expected to repeat, but the Phillips boys, playing the coolest and hcadiest game of any team in the tournament, ou-tpassed and outshot their closest rivals to win 30-21. The next afternoon, against the much stronger opposition of Livermore Falls High School, our teamwork was all off, in fact all the team except White played poorly and we were defeated 25-14. Later Livermore won the tourney, defeating Jay hy a larger score than they defeated us. Stinchfi-eld was high for us with 4 points. That evening we got going again and easily outplayed Anson Academy through- out to win 32-20. Field was high scorer with 18 points. 4' Red White was our only player to make the all tournament team. He not only made it but was the only man on it to be elected unanimously. BANGOR Y. M. C. A. TOURNAMENT VVe were chosen to participate in the Y tourney at Bangor, being the only team from this district. In the first game we were chosen to play Hermon, who was favored to beat us, we being a dark horse. We easily downed Hermon 30-18 and were matched against Winthrop in the next game. We were again favored to lose and did not disappoint the dopesters this time Calthough we nearly didj. At the quarter we lead 4-3 and at the half 10'-9. The second half was also very close. At one time we secured a four point lead and once they didg this 'being the greatest -difference in score during the game. When the game ended, however, they were two points ahead of us, 22-20. In the first game Field and Stinchfield scored most for us with 9 and 8 points respectively. In the second game Field xwas high scorer with 12 points. TRACK -- FALL, 1930 THE PHILLIPIAN 33 TRACK - SPRING, 1930 . E won the Spring Track Meet at Farmington by a good margin. The men getting points were: Rowe, Harnden, White, and Field. 'WE had a good number of men out for track and were quite confident that we would win another track cup at the fall track meet at Farmington. However when Strong beat us quite badly in a dual meet we were much less confident. Finally the big day came and, as event after event went by, first one team and then another would be ahead. When the last event came Jay was in the lead but only by a few points and, as they had no one entered in this event, the pole vault, they could not Win. Therefore there 'were three teams, Strong, Kingfield, and Phillips who might win. We were sure of a first place in this but then Strong got enough points so that it was necessary for us to place another man to even tie them. Then a gallant Freshman, Raymond Rowe, crashed through and saved the day fby tying for fourth. This tied us with Strong for first place. The one man greatly responsible for our victory was the iron-man Everett Lindy Harnden who was tied for the High point man. He got first in the half mile and also in the mile, which was to be expected -be- cause he not only has the county record in the mile but last year he surprised the State by breaking the State record at the Bates track meet. He also got third in the 440 and fourth in the broad jump. Others getting points were: Stanton White first in the pole vault, Raymond Rowe tied for fourth in the pole vault, Norman Field tied for first in the high Jump. BASEBALL - 1930 E had a much more successful base- ball season than we had had before for some years. We :won half our games and some others were very close. Quite a few came out for this sport and we found excellent material in the Freshman squad. The games and scores are as follows: Apr. 27 Phillips 10 New Sharon 4 Phillips Phillips 6 Kingfield 8 Kingfield May 10 Phillips 15 Stratton 5 Phillips Phillips 0 Rangeley 9 Rangeley Phillips 14 Stratton 13 Stratton Phillips 1 New Sharon 7 New Sharon Phillips 15 Kingfield 14 Phillips Phillips 14 Strong 16 Phillips N. H. F., Ass? S. W. GLRLS' ATHLETICS AST fall the girls of Strong High met with us to have a dual track meet, along with the boys. In this meet we were successful, but when we went to Farmington the- next week to the county meet we were able to get only two points. This, however, was better than we had done for several years, thus making an in- crease in our athletic ability which we hope will keep increasing in the following years. Volley-ball is another of our vain at- tempts in athletics, but in spite of all the failures we are ready to do our best again this spring. We think perhaps basketball this winter may have helped us to keep fit for volley-ball. In regard to the basketiball this winter We can say that although we failed to play any games, at least we have learned how to play and next year we hope to meet teams from other schools. Mr. Whitte- more and Rev. Mr. Curtis arranged with the boys' coach, Lester Gattrell, to coach the girls also. We certainly appreciate his valiant effort to make a team and hope we may be fortunate enough to secure his aid again. 34 THE PHILLIPIAN il inf' I X l A ,Oiliv ' .V -M321 l it f M X Q ' ,ff VF.-S wc. ms- ' '.'lVU1f'i I A l.1Q,A,fw,.
