H. S., we publish this Phois of 1921. PHOIS-NINETEEN TWENTY-ONE To p .IOSEPHINE M. JOHNSON As an expression of our esteem for her as an untiring teacher, of our apprecia- tion of her as a helpful advisor, and our regard for her as a true friend, the Senior Class of 1921 is happy to dedicate this Phois. .n o 1 Josephine Llofmgon K J 4 PHOIS-N1NlY'l'ElSN 'l'XN'ENTY-UNE 3 The Color Guard W To promote patriotism and respect for the flag, a, novel plan was perfected in P. H. S. In an assembly, speakers from the American Legion Post and the G. A. R., pointed out the courtesies that are to be given to our national flag. To help this plan ma- terialize, they suggested the formation of a color guard, composed of students chosen for excellent scholarship, whose duty it should be to raise and lower the flag daily. Acting upon this suggestion. Mr. Fox appointed an honor guard consisting of five boys, who had obtained the best standing in that report period. Every report period forms the basis of designating the guard. The first guard was composed of Harold C. Rosenthal, sargeantg Kenneth Gifford, Walter Smalley, William Wright and Philip Maguire. The duty of the guard is to hoist the flag every school day at 8:30 A. M. At 3:35 P. M., the emblem is lowered. During this ceremony, every student within sight of the flag is to come to attention. The boys should remove their hats with the right hand and place the covering across their breasts. For in- clement weather, the head covering should be raised slightly from the head. The proper conduct for the girls is to stand in a position of respectful attention. All activities should cease and remain so until the raising or lowering is completed. The cooperation of the student body has been ex- cellent. It is a common sight to see from fifty to a. hundred students at attention, while the flag is be- ing raised or lowered. The movement has been inaugurated to foster a spirit of nationalism, and the students of the school have set a splendid example by their conduct. Already the effect of the students' patriotism and respect is being felt throughout the city. That the move- ment is worthy, is not doubted by anyone, and the class of '21 expresses a hearty wish for its continu- ation.

As the chief result of the various class meetings during the past year has been the amusement for those present, it is altogether fitting and proper that the subject be treated here: The Freshmen meetings are quiet. The cl21Sses conduct themselves with increasing boisterous- ness as they become more influential in thc school. But the Freshmen are very still. A visitor at one of their business sessions would feel awed by the solemn silence which prevails, a silence broken now and then by the husky voice of their president who is always giving sly glances at a book of par- liamentary law on, How to Conduct a Meeting . from a typical set of minutes. A good idea of those gatherings may be obtained The regular quaterly meeting of the class of 1924 was held last Tusday at seven o'clock. The president called the meeting to orderlyness. The minutes were called for, red and expruved. Upon sujjestion of the president Mr. Reeds Platt moved that the meeting adjourn. The motion was carried by one vote. Our advisor said it was very well done. Some mysterious alchemy is affected in the minds of students during their Freshmen-Sophomore summer vacation. Where formerly all was silence and timid- ity, now confident voices rise demanding in tones of those who know their rights, the point of privilege, and the person in the chair, for the president has left it in order to address the body from the floor, answers back confidently, ''Stacharpointuvprivelege. There are no depths of legal procedure into which these sophicated sophs have not dared to plunge. However, there is a case on record when they became so enmeshed in their own parliamentary net that something had to be layed in the table the min- utes faintly record. One cold day last April after they had settled all their disputes and solved all their troubles as became anorganization of their stability and station, some one made the motion that they adjourn. It was duly seconded. Yet with the end so near, they were not safe. A certain tHandsomeJ Kenneth G., wise in his own conceit, rose, was recognized, and made the motion that the motion for adjournment be laid on the table. Here is a circumstance which leads us to doubt the understanding of those aspiring young men and women. The motion was carried. Consider the situation which confronted them. It was six o'clock, their stomachs were empty, they were tired of con- finement in a narrow room and of sitting on uncom- fortable seats. They could not break up that meeting because they had laid the motion for adjournment on the table. It was a question of principle and so they sat. It was a time for vigorous measures. An in- ventory of pockets and desks produced iive sticks of gum. -These were confiscated by the president as a war measure and divided among those present. Shadows material, shadows gastric, shadows men- tal, lengthenedg 8, 9, 10 o'clock. The Janitor looked in He seemed to feel that the meeting 'd have to quit. He'd gotta go home. He had voiced the public senti- ment but how could one accomplish it. The electric clock was faithful. Time went on. Hark! All ears alert. Could it be? It was. Who does not know the gong on the Police Patrol? They stood not upon the order of their going. Those Fresh- men knew their Algebrasg the Simultaneous Equation had nothing on them. That janitor had sense. Thus ended the class meetings of 1923. Respectwely submitted, Secretary. Sit down! Who ever heard of you? Throw him out! If you can't say it, sing it! Silence in the Court House. The monkey's going to speak. Don't be alarmed, friends, the Junior president is merely calling his meeting to order. Order is not immediately forthcoming. A delegate must be elected to receive the spade on class night. Let 'em keep their ole spade. Who wants the rusty thing We don't. With such enthusiastic energy do the childish Jun- iors attack their business. The meeting is long continued. It is the consensus of opinion that no one is able to do the honors in a creditable manner. After long discussion they are no nearer a conclusion than when they began. The discussion is of an orderly nature. Oh yes, the Tower of Babel metaphorically speaking, was located in DJ 4 and 5. The presiding otlicer grows impatient, his face is red, his throat is husky, his collar is limp. He breathes a sigh of relief when the motion is carried that the question be settled in the usual manner. The Ouija board is produced and the Spirits send their choice by means of the three-cornered board. The decision is satisfactory to all. Indeed it appears that it is customary to refer all matters to their protesting Goddess, Ouija. The class of 1921 holds meetings which are perfect at least in respect to form. This of course is due to the dignity and ability of our noble leader. There may be some who would scorn us as radicalsg nay, but I cha.llenge anyone to repeat that those charges before an assembly of our class. We ourselves were not al- ways appreciative of the principles set forth at much length by Harold C. Trotzky or Deacon Robartus Pat- terson, nor have we been truly grateful for their solicitations care. But that did not bind them nor the other zealots for majority rule from earnestly stirring to make Study Hall Four a decent place to live in. There comes our last meeting. Some one moves to adjourn . We almost feel like laying the motion on the table. Our class meetings have done us good. For four years we've felt the battling of personalities. We've learned how to look for leaders. We've applied Dem- ocracy in our school life which must be applied to make our nation a success. C. P. C.

The Senior Dance had started. After a very orderly grand march which went smoothly to its conclusion, the first dance be- gan. This prophecied the gr-a-and time through-out. The gymnasium was attractively decorated in our class colors, blue and white. Palms Zlllfl CVCI'gI'CCl1S fllffllel' Covered the walls making many charming alcoves out of square brick corners.

VVe must pause here to note that many of the manly young fellows had borrowed' the paternal evening dress. Ch the glory of white shirt front-yes, even our president was attircd as became his dignity. At eleven oiclock, refreshments of ice cream and cake were served. During the inter- mission, Clifford Nuhn extended the best Wishes of the Senior Class to the members of the Basket Ball Team who were to leave the next day to compete for the state championship at Syracuse. After they had partaken of their refreshments, the members of the team left in a body to get their rest for the journey. Dancing lasted until twelve o'clock, when all the .guests took their devious ways toward home. One junuor who managed to get himself invited, was overheard to remark, VVell, it was a pretty good dance. Multiply that sentiment by a hundred 01' so and one has the truth of the matter. It was the concensus of opinion that it was the best Senior Dance, the class of 19211 ever had had. The chaperones were Mr. and Mrs. Moon. Mr, and Mrs, Fox, Mr. and Mrs. Boyce, and members of the Faculty. Rutherford's orchestra furnished excellent music. Much credfit must be given to the members of the various committees and to the Presi- dent of 1921. all of whom coolperated for success.

Both were well done and afforded valuable experience for those who afterwards took part in Pruuella. . Of Prunella itself. it is impossible to sayauything but good. The presentation on March 19, of Housman and Barker's dainty three-act drama. established a precedent in Poughkeepsie Hgh School Dramatics. VVe are all proud, and justly so, thatqa play of this type could be produced by high school students. Personal commendation is clue XValter Slavik as Pierrot. and Marion MacKenzie, the little Freshman star, who played opposite as l'runella. Both showed sympathetic sen- sitiveness in the interpretation of their parts. Robert Dietz as NSC2l1'Zl111Cl,, and James Skel- ley as- t'he gardner's bofy were also exceedingly good. The graceful dancing of Geraldine Kearney, and the clever statuette designed by Elmer Tripp, were interesting and: novel fea- tures, while the costumes and scenery were almost professional in Huis-h. In a Word Primel- la was a huge success. judging both from the artistic and financial points of view. The dramatic success is due largely to Miss Elizabth Penny, Vassar FZZ, orn whom the entire responsibility of coaching rested. The Misses Jackson. Burr, and Smith of the faculty were indispensable in the production. A vote of thanks is also due the Executive Staff, without whose faithful co-operation and interest, such a production would have been impossible. t 'ilillZNE3YfZiiWeilFZSPKWifEWZiliKiiiKiif?tiii7ilFKWYN675157351PFWiliiiiiiiiiililiiiitilii-iii' P1-IOIS-+N1NETEEN TXYENTY-O ANQAIS FR LE CERCLE PHGIS-NINETEEN .TVVENTY-ONE fi Le Circle Francais OFFICERS President, Harold Rosenthal Secretary, Betty Peckham Vice-P-resident, Betty Matteson Reporter, Ruth Gross Treasurer, Arthur .VVollenhaupt Serg'eant-at-arniis, Bill Ryon I MEMBERS ' 19.21 Eva Shostak Margaret Mack Ruth Eifron 1 Helen Andrews Ernmet D'Arcy Clifford Case .

The Constitution says its purpose is to maintain a high standard of' athletics, and to raise the standard of the varsity insignia. Re- commendations from Mr. Fox, regancling the care of school property and exempllifying good conduct have been adopted and practiced conscientiously. But primarily, t'he club has de- voted itself to the development ofathletfic standards, and has succeeded to a remarkable ex- tent. . The club was organized a short time after the mid-year examinations. The charter niem- bers, were those who had won two varsity letters. These numbered eighft, and included Robert Patterson, Edward Smith. Alber-t4Coiifey, Harold C. Rosenthal, Abraham Crooke, Edmimldr Murphy, Thomas lXlcVVilliams, and Leonard Hall. Officers were elected' from these charter members. Mr. Crapser was elected faculty Advisor wlifth full powers of mem- bership, Messrs. Flannery and Murphy, football and baseball coaches, were elected hon- orary meinbers. A constitution was drawn up and by-laws adopted. New members were admitted. Slow- ly, tihe organizatlion has grown and become a source of power. Numerous suggestions and recomni-cndations have been made to- the Athletic Council mfost -of which have been adopted. All Ilthlebic affairs of any importance in the school have been directly under the supervision of the Letter Club. f ' By its excellentconduct, the Letter Club has become an inspiration to- all High School athletes. Every man who has won a varsity letter in any sport is eligible to membership. If, in the oplinioni of the club, a fellow is worthy of membership, he may be elected to such after-a short probationary period, during which time hc is under the scrutiny of the entire organization. - ' The iirst affair of any importance which the Letter Club promoted was the Interclass Track Meet. The entry list was the largest of any meet held in Poughkepsie, but so skill- ful was thedirection of this meet that nothing happned which marrede the Coqnpetitionu It was sponsored solely by the Letter Club, every .official being a member of the organization. The Hudson Valley Track Meet will also be held under the auspices of this club. One especial feature which we do- not wish to forget was the dance held on May thirteenth. - Judging' from its growing' roster and potential inllunce, the Varsity Letter Club gives promise of becoming the most powerful organization in the school. Under all conditions it has stood for all that is fair and honorable. It is emblematical of all that is embodied in the school insignia, the P , As the initial year is an overwhelming success, who dares to pre- dict what the future holds for this club?

Wie have tried to accomplish something as well as to keep up the old standards of the society. Through the help of our faculty ad- visors and our President, whom we have had for both terms, we feel now that we have not striven in vain. , ln our programs we have tried to arrange one debate, one literary program and two weeks of argumentative speeches a month. Besides this routine works, we had the annual debate with Irving VVebster, in the Auditorium. Delis-o's team consisted of Ruth Blackmon, leaderg Alice Connelly, Gertrude. Olds with Viola Light, alternate. Though we lost we feel that our team did credit to the society. The junior-Senior debate was also held and the junior's won. During the first semester, we had a jolly initiation party in the Gym. At Christmas time, we had the fun of dressing twelve dolls for the Salvation Army. Sh! we occasionally have a surprise at meetings too. NV-e were very sorry to have to accept the resignation of Miss Knox as faculty advi- sor, for she had been a great help in llehso work. However, with Miss Cotter and Miss Barnes as able counselors, we hope the society will continue to grow as it has this year. History of Irving Webster 'llhe plan for debating this season has varied somewhat from former years. The object has been to give more men a chance at debating. As the program committee was active, we have had two mock 'trials and many interesting programs of one and two-man debates. These were invariably followed by discussions as in teresting. at least, if not more so than the de- bates themselves. c Plans are under way for a more systematic .organiation as well as more specialization in team work. VVe lost the Rutger's league debate to Kingston on the subject: Resolved, that the United States should have a navy at least equal in effective strength to that of Great Britain. Our team had the negative. Previous to this, the annual Irving Webster and Deliso debate was held using the same subject, the Irving XVebster winning. The Junior-Senior Debate com-pletes the list of public debates for the season. ,fn PHOIS-NINETEEN TXN'EN'1 Y-ONF , 101 3 K, .KKK , X . KSKKXSK K .. . . . U K. ,K.KKK....,faigKK3KK4, Q A -.

They took seven out of eight games, losing one to Kingston 6-3, but in the return contest they trimmed the Kingston team Zl--0. This made football history. for it was about the most decisive defeat ever handed toa Kingston eleven, by the wearers of the Blue and VVhite. The success of the team was due largely to the remarkable coaching of J. Gordon Flan- nery, a graduate of Syracuse. who took a bunch of candidates only four of whom had played on a varsity football team before, and moulded them into- a championship eleven. Rip , as he was affectionately known to every member of the squad, did. not aim to develop stars, but he strove to make eleven boys play as one unit. He su-cceeded so well that the team took the cham.pionship of the Central Hudson Valley Interscholastic Athletic League. Flannery was not a line man, but he develope-d a lighting line which proved a ternor to the teams all along the valley. They did not wait to get hit like the other linemen, but they broke through and nailed the runner before he could get started. The linemen of P. H. S. made more tackles than 'che backiield men who are ordinarily expected tio' do the tackling. He taught the center linemen to use their hands to block holes, and not receive the full weight' of the attack. A Coach Flannery achieved his marked success by his remarkable personality. He got down tio brass tacks with the boys themselves, and took his share of the work, and several other shares, too. Nobody ever caught him shirking, and nobody could tire him. By the end of the season. the members of the squad, from the star players, to the humblest sub- stitutes. felt that they had gained a friend. Football meant more to the players than the mer-e playing, for it was a developer of character as well as of body. The High School eleven, in the eight games which they played, scored 270 points, while the best their opponents could do was 20 points in all. The Blue and lVh1te goal line was crossed only three times throughout the entire season. Patterson, captain and quarterback. tar outshone the other quarters along the river. At PHOIS-NINETEEN TXVENTY-ONE h the conclusion of the season the coach said that he would make a place on any freshman team in t e country. He was not only a good field general. but a kicker, and a fast, broken field runner. shak fron buck He the was coul pass cent for thy Coffey, at fullback, was a consistent linebucker. He knew how to pick his holes, and e off tacklers. He was good tor tive yards through the center of the line at any time. Rosenthal, half back, shone on end runs and off tackle plays. VVhenever he got loose 1 the pack, he was good for a touchdown. VanNosdall, halfback, was shifted from end when MicVVilliams was injured. He could the line and form interference, and ranked fourth as a point getter. Cummings, center, had the best spiral pass of any pivot man in this section of the country. was especially good as a roving center, on a forward pass formation. Cummings will be captain in 1921. Ryon was an aggressive guard. He usually had a hole open and one closed when it necessary. -Wlollenhaupt was a good msate for Ryon. They were the heaviest men on thc team and d use their weight to advantage. VVollenhau,pt was better on the defense, 'Smith made a smashing tackle and a good kicker. He gained much ground on a forward formation, besides making himself felt on the defense. . Cahalian, tackle, had his forte on the offense. It was his work which completed the strong er line. Hill at end: was in every play. ' He completed several forward passes which accounted substantial gains, and also scored a touchdown on one of them. Sanderson was moved from the second team to replace VanNosdall and he made a wor- successor. He was a good tackler. 1 ' , Mckkfilliams started the season at fullback, butlaitcr was shifted to end and showed his worth there.

All the best High School basketball talent in the State of New York was entered in a tournament in Syracuse, March 31, and April 1 and 2. Through an uphill battle, the 'Poughkeepsie High School came to the top. A beauti- ful silver trophy is in our hands. and it will remain there as a symbol of what was made possible by hard team work. lt is probably the greatest honor which an athletic team. has ever brought to the High School, and the citizens of the city considered that it was a great honor to them as well. The series was played, Thursday. Friday and Saturday, and the team came home Monday. A mob was on hand to greet them at the station, and even a representative from the Fox News was present to render homage to the returning heroes. In the evening the Kiwanis Club ten- dered a public banquet and reception, at which the members ofthe team and Coach Crapser were the quests of honor. Leonard VI. Hall. captain of the team, wasnamed as forward ofthe All-state interscholas- tic team, at. the conclusion of the tournament, and Albert Coffey was given the call for one ot the guard positions. The other members of the team were: Charles Hoag. arold C. Rosenthal, Edward Smith, Hawley C. X1Vaterman, and Thomas N. McVVilliams. :X Lester Crapser was the coach. PHOIS-NINETEEN TVVENTY-ONE 7 The team went through a schedule of 19 games, losing only one of them-to North Tarrytown High Schoolsquintet, 3-1-32 on their own court. ln these 19 games the team reached, 1003 points, the greatest number scored by a team of P. H. S. Together with the 100 points they made in the Syracuse tournament, their record for the season com-es to 1103. Because of their experience, speed. and size, Sherrill, Albany, and Norwich were picked to be thejleading contenders in the tournament. Poughkeepsie chose Albany for the hrst opponent, and of -course, everyone was with Albany. .ln the closest, and most exciting game of the tourney, the P. H. S. team managed to take the victory from Albany, in the final seconds of play. .lxlbzmy took the lead. and at the end of the tirst 20 minutes of 'play they were leading 20-17. Remarkable team work won this urune ' ' bi u r For their next opponent, P. H. S. drew Johnstown High School. This was another close game, because Johnstown had accounted for the highest score of the tourney in their tirst game. It was basket for basket all the way 2 at half time, the score stood 18-18. Some bril- liant work by Hall, assisted by Rosenthal, together -with the other members of the team, brought iinal victory to P. H. S. by a 35-31 scorey Q '. Sherrill pulled a big upset: for. in their game with Nofrwich, who had takenv the title in 1920, they came out on the lo-ng end of a 25-la score. - ' - The unusual guarding of the l'. H. S team was the outstanding feature ot' the tinal Sherrill--P. H. S. game, which was for the state title. The opposing guards were not able to s-core a single basket. Poughkeepsie took the lead at the outset: so, by forcing the game all the way, they led 16-7 at the conclusion of the opening period. and had the big part of the 29-18 total when the whistle sounded. This result gave them undisputed possession of the champonship of New York State. . P VVith the exception ofthe Tarrytown game, the rest of the schedule was one. long succes- sion of victories. P. H. S. took them as they came. and handed them all they same medicine. They won the Central Hudson Valley lnterscholastic Basketball Title. without suffering a sin- gle defeat. lt is the second time thatthe team has taken the title. It it is won'by P. H. S. again next year. it will remain in the permanent possession oi Poughkeepsie. The Midget team, comes in also for its share of the honors. They went through their season without a single defeat, and they developed a style of play which rivaled that of the First team. The Second team contended all season that they could trim the First, but they never .succeeded in doing it. They had a schedule of their own, and made a creditable re- cord. Several of their players will form the nucleus for the team next year, as all the play- ers but Hall are expected to graduate in june. 1 The scores' Opp. P.'H. S. The scores: Opp. P. H.

Any resident of the City of Poughkeepsie will bear out this statement. This grand home coming was truly a civic affair, for, directly or indirectly, every Poughkeepsian took part in welcoming ihome our team, the Basket Ball Champions of New York State. . The -departure of the team to participate in the tournament was the very antithisis of its return. Witli no ostentatious display, but bearing the best wishes of the entirepcommun- ity with them, the staunch defenders of the Blue and XVhite departed for the scene of con- tests. - , Playing under the most adverse conditions, our splendid aggregation wo11 the first elim- ination contest, defeated one of the best contestants 'in the semi-finals, and administered a decisive defeat to Sherrill High School in the iinal game, thus winning the Sftate title. Ten teams, representing the best of our two hundred high schools, were entered in the tournament. Norwich High, last year's champions: Sherrill High: Albany: Iohnstowng VVest Hampton Beach: Minoa: Oriskanyg Batavia: Tupper Lake, and Poughkeepsie were the contestants. Norwich, Albany, Sherrill, and Johnstown were the outstanding quintets according to up-state papers. , ' Albany, Poughkeepsie's first opponent. was the favorite by a large majority. The locals were unknown. As for the game, it was the most brilliant exhibition of basket ball witnessed in the elimination contests. Wfith the score changing constantly, this battle royal lasted for forty minutes. At the end of this time. Poughkeepsie led by tive points, the score being 36-3'l. In the semi-finals, Johnstown was our opponent. As in the initial contest, our oppon- ents were regardfed as the prospective victors. But, like Albany, they received an unexpected defeat, 35-31. Coming from behind in the last few minutes of the play, our team overcame the lead of the other team, assumed an advantage. and held it. This game was both close and exciting, the result being doubtful till the final whistle. 1 lilatched against Sherrill High School in the finals, our representatives took this contest with comparative ease. The superiority of our aggregation was always marked and the game ended 29-18. . Like royal conqucrors returning from victory, our team received a welcome that will never be forgotten. At 2:30 P. M., Monday afternoon, April 4, 1921, the train from Syra- cuse rolled in. The sun shone down on the largest crowd that ever filled the railroad station platforms. The bridge on Main Street was packed with an expectant crowd. As the vic- torious team descended, a wild exultant crowd rushed forward, singled out the heroes, and hoisted them on their shoulders. Flowers filled the air and were showered on the blovs. Girls, boys, teachers, and sedate civilians, all joined in the enthusiastic and noisv reception. A :mo- tion picture -man increased the interest. ' ' Seizing the boys' luggage, they were rushed to automobiles and a parade formed. Large signs and banners, bearing the title of the team, horns and other noise-making helps were heard on all sides., St. Peter's Brigade Band furnished the music for the procession. Xkfith snake dances and in single file, the procession came royally to the High School. ' ' , Here more pictures were taken. Then a monster meeting inthe auditorium took-place. Congratulations by the Mayor, Superintendent of Schools, and other officials were tenfdfered. Short, modest speeches of appreciation were made by the individual members of the team, punctuated by loud cheers from the enthusiastic crowd. Soon afterward, the bovs were taken to their homes. ' Numerous receptions by all the civic organizations followed. The boys were feted, dined, and banqueted. Nothing was left undone to show civic appreciation. Their reception was royal, but the boys merited all the recognition they received. Throughout it all, their reply was: The honor of representing such enthusiast'i'c supporters is greater than the attainment of a state basketball title. ' Pl-IOIS-NINETEEN TXWENTY-ONE J' , l l r g l Baseball Wfith the approach of spring came the egress of thc candidates for the nine. After the wonderful showing of the football and basketball teams, much enthusiasm was shown re- garding the chances of the baseball team's cleaning up the valley trophy, and a large squad attended the initial assembly of the baseball candidates. Under Henry Murphy, coach, last year's captain of Cornell's baseball team, the team gradually assumed a favorable form. Though light, the team: has the P. l-l. S. spirit. Very few veterans reported and so it was necessary to develop a new nine based on the nuceleus of last year's team. Coach Murphy has succeeded beyond the expectations ofthe most op- timistic of the team's supporters. Those who are watching the baseball season know that their victories and style of team work will make a fitting climax to this splendid season of athletics. Track p Although in its infancy. track has taken a strong grip on Poughkeepsie High School. The season began .May 2, 1921, when aspirants of the cinder path, met in an interclass meet, The class of 1921, emerged victorious having acquired 37 points while her slister class of '23 stood second with 31. The meet consisted of 2 class-es, 110 lb. class and unlimlited Weight. In the latter class, 1921's athletes excelled while '23 stood out in the lighter class. From the winners of this meet, the representatives ofthe varsity team were chosen who will compete in the dual meets and in the Valley meet on June ll. . Any one who obtains points in any meet is entitled to a varsity block P for major sport. judging from the competition displayed in the class meet, more track letters will be is- sued this year than ever before. Last year, eight men won the varsity P for track. Of these, four remained to wear again the colors of the Blue and XYhite on the track. it I1-IDIS-NIINTlLIlN FXXINIX UNL 111 9' 1 , 4 . , 99 EW ofifmwfy ' v Ne I !

VVith the heartiest welcome possible we greet you, not as an audience but as participants in our fun. In the name of 1921 I invite you one and all to join our class this evening and beone of us. To those people wfho have never before attended Class Night exercises, an explanation is due. To try to explain fully what Class Night means to us who are leaving here tomorrow as graduates would be futile. Suffice it to say, that it makes the closing link in the chain of memory which will hold High School days dear to us. One of the ancient ceremonies that will take place here shortly wlill be the presenting of the mementos. Let me assure you that there is scarcely a graduate of the Poughkeepsie I-Iigh School who has not a little mem- ento tucked away in some dark corner, occupying the same place of honor as the handker- chiefs, pressed flowers and dance orders. They all serve as a starting point for remliniscence which leads one on to take part again in, perhaps, the happiest moments of his y0uth,...tO call back again the school, the dance, the life. To-night we are lingering on the platform for a last good-bye hand-shake with Poughkeepsie High before the train bears us out and away. To-night there are no actors, no starsg we are all graduating Seniors. And now fond mdthers and fonder fathers, be not alarmled if your sonny boy and some Winsome little girl, or vlisa versa, are linked to-gether here this evening with a long string of paper hearts. 'Tis nothiing serious. The mere borrowing of a pencil may have been sufficient cause for the knockers to exaggerate on this occasion. And let me inform you that the greatest disgrace and the greatest calamity that can befall one of us tonight, is to have some- thing meritorious said ab-out us. Quoting from one of the old masters, we say, The harder they knock, the better we like it.', Until this moment I have neglected to state that this Class Night is going to be the biggest, best and most stupendous ever enjoyed in the History of the Poughkeepsie High School. It goes without saying that no class can equal the class that one graduates with. So now let King joy with his two jesters Qui-p and Pun mount the throne and let his scepter rule from this moment on, for I have finished.

PHOIS-NINETEEN TVVENTY-ONE Class History LADIES, GENTLEMEN, AND MEMBERS OF THE UNDERCLASSES: DESIRE to bring to your attention tonight an important .change in the curriculum of the Poughkeepsie High School. Mr. Moon, Superintendent of Schools, and Mr. Fox, Princi- pal of the High School, have requested me to announce the introduction of a new history into all courses taken up -in High School. ' On account of the strict Regents regulations, this history is to be elective in the Fresh- man year beginning September. 1921, but ,it may be selected any time before graduation by the classes already enrolled. This hiStOI'y must be taken a full year in order that the pupil may secure a High School Diploma. It is called History ,X because of the indiefinitude of its results, for as the years roll by, its importance to the underclassm-an wfill be more fully realized. Mr. Fox has privately intimated to me that upon the successful completion of a full year's course the pupil will be accredited wfith at least six counts because the Board of Ed- ucation has agreed that its stufdy will have Zl far more beneficial effect upon young people of the adolescent age than that of either Ancient, Modern. or American History. Although fully impressed himself with the inestimable value of the new subject, Mr. Fox anticipated, from past experience with your indifferent attitude, that you underclassmen would pay no attention to the great opportunity offered you, so he and I decided that the best way to impress its importance upon you is to present its merits to the attention of the parents present tonight who may have a little more influence over you than your teachers have. ' History X deals entirely with the deeds ofthe great Class of 1921 and the achievements of its many beacon ligh-ts. Q 'A - Q You see here in my hands on th-is rostrum, the first volume of thc handy hip-pocket edi- tion of the Phoiley issue, complete in all departments and contain-ing an absolutely full and accurate account tall within th-ese coversj of the achievements of the Class of '21, If you will, kindly permit me to read to you a few paragraphs here and there in this wonderful little book you will be convinced of its essential worth to the coming generations. I'Iarking back to a bright afternoon four short years ago we can see rows upon rows of little girls dressed primly all in white each cherishing with so-licitous eye and hand a huge boquet, and an equal 'number of young aspirants to manhood bring- ing up the rear just as anxious about their stiffly resisting topknots which, in spite of ye repeated generous applicaton of soap or vaseline still sought their accustomed unkemypt state. One by one they hurried forward,psqueaky shoes protesting loudly, to receive with beating heart their grade school diplomas. How their fond parents clapped as Billie or Betty bowed automatically! And how proud they themselves Were! How big they felt! To think that now at last they were graduated and soon to be in this great big building. . Four years ago, Four years ago, Far, far away, P We were Freshies gay. i INC had no care or trouble then, To work we settled, what was past had been. Wie looked ahead with a cheerful grin, To the year twenty-one. ' The following September, 1917, they found themselves really coming into this school and-mirab'ile dictu!-under the awe-inspiring name of Class of 1921 of the Poughkeepsie High School. Lest the gen eral public be not properly impressed with PHOIS-NINETEEN TWENTY-ONE this astounding fact UP. H. S. '21 was blazoned on all their possessions. It was not long ere they found out that freshmen are infinitesimal in the eyes of the great Sen- iors. QAnd always were and always shall belj However the Class of '31 soon grew accustomed to studies and school routine had began to show symptoms of extraor- dinary mentality and individuality. The year Hew quickly as a whole although every second during class periods seemed an hoiur to the, poor little youngsters. They could' hardly wait for the Regents they were' so eager to show what they could do. ' ' Three years ago, Soph's were we, We'd changedl a blit, VVe'd gained some grit. Vlfe started in to dig the soil, On books and lessons hard to- toil, And we waited long to get tlhe spoil Of the year twenty-one. Q After the shortest vacation known to mankind they were back again only to encounter an irresistible enemy called the f'ti.u . Although some werefatekdg to suc- cumb, all fought and sacrinced. And when they came back a month late-r they still smiled bravely with the resolution to iight and' keep on Fighting. Now the word HSOPHGMORE 'ZF' was printed glaringly on the covers of all' their notebooks. Woe betide the ignorant who did not now deem them veterans in the High School! Playing was studied and studying was played, and haughty words were dropped up- on the Freshm.en's receptive ears. Regents were nothing in their young lives gl they were but an incident. CAlthough I must admit in some cases they turned out to be an accident.j The year fled altogether too quickly. VVhat little vacastion they had was certainly enjoyed ev-en if the usual grumbles about its shortness seemed to deny this. - Two years ago, r lust so so, The goal so near, 'Long came a fear: A Shall we ever get our lessons right? Can we cram our brains in just one night? ' O, we felt so queer! llfhat an awful fright As we came to twenty-one! A In September, 1919, the wandering fShould the historian have used wonder- ing?l disciples of knowledge returned to the seat of learning o-nce more, a little older but infinitely wiser than on the previous occasion-for now they were juniors. And they had come back with the resolution to play hard,--for the marks they made were perfectly wonderful. Now a decided interest in Athletics was beginning to grow steadily-a flame which had emlitted no light in previous classes. They seized the initiatlive of every organization in school. How those sprited girls tagged at the football games! Unlucky the crestfallen mortal who had no dime! CRemember the track nireet of 1920 at Newbugh? Let me read you the sentence which summarizes it completelyl. The rest of the school starred on the the sidelines while the class of '21 went in and won. This year proved thefir mettle. Thru their efforts this school did not recognize itself now. It was overflowing with class spirit, not only in athletics but also in all in all other activities. A wonderful thing is class spirit-lit braces, it supports, it shines like little lVillie's face after his weekly scrub. Gust so -it shows cleanlinessj It makes or the lack of it breaks. Our school was made by the class of 'ZLD PI-IOIS-NIN-ETEEN TXYENTY-ONE The reins of leadership were eagerly grasped and the class drove thru all op- position to the Basket-ball championship of the Hudson V alley. But the deeds Cconsidered as crimes in the eyes of the class of 'ZOJ-they as juniors performed were nothing to what they achieved after the censoring Seniors had left and the Class of '21 had grasped their rightful throne in September, 1920. The terrific pace they set caiused Mr. Moon and Mr. Fox to gasp. They im- mediately captured the Hudson Valley .Football title, and then CGaze long upon the cham'pions!j the Hudson Valley Basketball title and1then the Basketball Cham- pionship of the entire State of New York! They have thus completed the most won- derful year of athletics the Poughkeepsie High School has ever knowin. Soon it was june and after the Regents had gone just as quickly and as easily as mother's jam, the Class of 'Z1' passedf into History. My time is growing short so I must conclude quickly. I did not come here to make a speech, but an announcement. This little -book will tell you all you wish to know about the conspicuous personalities of '21, As for me I can only say that when you justly consider the characters of our Cicero Case, Pericles Patterson, Robespierre Rosenthal, Tissot Tripp, Alcibiades Smith, Nicias', Knox, Roosevelt Ryon, Debs Davis, and Sampson Sheridan the inestimable differ- ence between their meriits and those of the other great men after whom. they are nicknamed s'hows how infinitely greater -and wiser are the boys of today than the men of yesterday. Here we are, Bright as a star. See how it's done: . just watch the fun. VVe worked, for diiplomas were now in sight: VVe gained the victory by doing right. VVouldn't you be as happy for this one night As our twenty-one? VVords by Elmer L. Tripp, '2l. Mr, President, I sincerely regret that I had to interrupt your program with this announcement in this way and I wish to express my gratitude both you for per- mission to speak on this important subject and to the audience for their kind atten- tion. Again I thank you. - no ZQQQV its m PHOIS-NINETEEN TNVENTY-ONE Class Prophecy Through the power of hypnotism the prophecy of the class of 1921 was revealed by NAN BRADY and ELMER TRIPP.

PRESIDENT, FRIENDS AND JUNIORS: S there no cup of joy that has not its drop of bitterness? Is there nothing like perfect bliss? If there is, we have yet to find it anywhere. You suggest, the Senior Dance. After four short hours it had to end. You mention the triumphant celebration when we won the State Basket-Ball Championshipg but many of us lost out in the struggle to force ourselves in front of the camera. And now you say the crowning event of our school life, this our class night. But even this is not to go unmarred by a note of sorrow, This Spade, this sacred Spade, must pass from our regretful grasp tonight. And to whom? Pre- cedent, the relentless ruler of this Hudson Valley, has decreed that it fall to that class whose fairestiiiowier sits yonder, huddled together in, Llet us be moderatel in timid bashfulness. If that were the end of o-ur trouble it would be enough to deaden our pleasure, but when we begin to visualize what that spade will be after we have gone, we are completely overcome. Tonight is the saddest instead of the sweetest in all our lives. Until now this has been a vibrant living thing almost possessed of a soul,-the tool with which and the symbol by which we worked. Tomorrow, it will lie neglected- on the shelf, but what a mere shell it will be, inanimate, stripped of all of its deep significance and useful- ness-a bitter mockery ! Although all these truths are evident to anyone in anyway connected with the school, vet, for the benefit of those who are strangers to usglet us make a complete survey of the past year with comparisons between the accomplishments of our class and the one beneath us. As Athletics is the first topic to come to our minds We will begin there. This yea-r for the first time in three, Poughkeepsie High School defeated Kingston in Football. VVe won from Newburgh twice. Hudson, Middletown, Peekskill Military Academy and Yonkers, winning the Hudson Valley Championship. Xkfhy? For two reasons: Rip Flannery a11d the fact that in the regular line up there were eight Seniors, three Sophomores and one junior. The aggregation that won twenty-two consecutive ga-mes this season, lost but 0116, and carried off the Hudson Valley and the New York State Basket-Ball Championships, was composed of six Senior and one, self-confessed Sophomore. On Monday, the second day of May last, an interclass meet was held. in Eastman Park. I know that this is a tender subject to broach before you juniors, but it is my duty to men- tion it and my duty I must do. Wihen the last event had been run off, the results were these: Seniors 37, Sophomores 30. Freshmen o and- Juniors 9. The Seniors and their sister class held 67 points,-four times as many as the classes of 1922 and l9Z4 combined. Now that the enemy has been annihilated in the land of sport let us turn to the field of art. No one, not even the Juniors themselves, will deny that one of our number is the best artist in the school, and he is not the only talented person in our class, for in every pos- ter contest held this year, Seniors have carried away three-fourths of the honors. Has this institution ever before sheltered a sculptor? No, but during the last four years it has and he is one of our classmates. Concerning our literary genius we are inclined to be modest and silent because it speaks for itself. The reason the Apokeepsian so successfully weathered the stormy past year is plain when you know that eight of its editors, story-writers and poets were Seniors while but three were Jnuiors and two, Sophomores. The members of the student body unwittingly showed a faith in the humor and literary ability of the Seniors, when they gave double the number of subscriptions to Phois than have ever been given before. VVhen an opportunity offered to demonstrate eagerness to help and musical ability, the Senior Class saw and made use of it and a Senior girl has been our capable song-leader all this term. Further proof of our accomtplishments are these songs you have heard tonight which we admit are the best ever written by the members of any class, anywhere. Through an 'unfortunate misinterpretation of the principles of the Rutgers league on the PI-IOIS-NINETEEN TVVENTY-ONE part of their opponents, the debating team representing Poughkeepsie High School lost to Kingston last March, although the judges all agreed that ours were the better arguments. With this in mind the Hon. Daniel Webster Kuhn will issue much useless verbiage about the oratorical inferiority :of the Senior Class, because all four members of the team were Seniors. Disregardting the significant fact that all right minded critics will uphold the ex- cellence of t'he debating team, you can easily observe the pointlessness of his remarks be- cause if there had been any better debaters in the junior class, they would have taken our classmates' places. Renard dit, Its sont trop vertsf' VVhich Cfor the benefit of the Juniorsj I will explain is an allusion to the well-known and justly famous Fox and Sour Grapes. In March the Dramatic Club mfade a decided hit by its successful presentation of Prunella. If-tand listen well to thisii if you take from the cast of Prunella all but juniors there will remain one actress and half a dozen ushers. If you take away all but Seniors you still have the hero, whose acting so far surpassed all other acting that there is no compari- son with him, and a host of his able supporters, nine in all, who formed the nuceleus of the cast. Besides the actors, the stage managers, the business managers, and the members of the advisory staff were all Seniors. That was the assistance which the Senior class gave to the Dramatic Club in the production of Prunella. It may not here be out of place to read the opinions of several eminent school authorities. Prof. Fox says: Yours is the best and largest class ever graduated from P. H. S. Its number includes the clearest thinkers and the most progressive and efficient workers. I have ever m-et. Our future looks black without 1921. Dr. Sue M. Ralston states: You may quote me as heartily endorsing Tanlac, it has entirely cured the rheumatism in my-4- I beg your pardon, the Doctor must have given me that manuscript by mistake. Here is the right one: Y-ou may quote me as heartily endorsing your class. -During my sojourn in this school I have come to regard it with an affection equalled only by my scorn of l922. You are at liberty -to use my-name in this statementf' q X Not -only have these far-sighted pedagogues expressed their sorrow at our inevitable de- parture but the very building itself has shed bitter tears for the past month, necessitating a new ceiling outside D-13. 1922 ran a benefit dance last fall and very successful it was, too. Indeed all the junior officers were benefitted to the extent of twogand a half dollars apiece. I neglected to men- tion that they held this dance at the Tennis Club contrary to the expressed wishes of the established authorities. You juniors, all or any of you, explain why is was necessary for every member of your class to contribute fifteen cents to some hushed-up fund about the time you ordered your rings! VVas there any connection between that mysterious collection and the equally mysterious disappearance of the ring which the company, Cunsuspicious because they were unaware of your reputationj rashly sent your- president as a sample? Perhaps some may think that there is a personal allusion in my next' remark: maybe there is. About the beginning of April it became necessary for the junior class to elect a dele- gate to receive this spade on class night. The members of the class had considered that problem ever since September and even then they were far from its solution. I have here the names of six of the most promising juniors, all of whom sit yonder, who confided to me they believed that there was no one in their class who was capable of confronting the very poorest choice tl1e Seniors might make. They are :-- Out of regard to their position I think it only charitable to omit their names. They have already betrayed themselves by their agitation. fAren't the little boys and girlies pretty when they blush ?j The problem was finally decided in the usual way. The President held a session with his Ouiia board and as a matter o-f formg the secretary cast one vote for the person whom the spirits had pointed out. ' PHOIS-NINETEEN TWENTY-ONE Those aforesaid Juniors are not the only ones who had no faith in their class. Several others, less openly but j-ust as clearly expressed their disgust' when they chose the do-ubtful fate of matrimony, rather than remain any But enough of this! Too long already Now you, dear friends, can understand our bol to most' certain degradation. Yea, even soul from its senseless shell? Farewell, O longer among such associates. have we lingered in dread of the inevitable. anguish when we pass down this beloved sym- death for what is death but the Hitting of a Spade, forever!

OU have heard the Senior orator. That Bud Fisher creation, with the auburn hair, orchard-white-proof freckles, and excess of longitude, took ten minutes to o-rate on the go-od points these Seniors, as a class, think they possess. In addition, this near-human, representing this grinning assemblage of somewhat nearer humans, made some very un- com limentary remarks about the Junior class, with the following results: Ellhe temperature of this hall and your desire ,to sleep have been increased several de- rees. r - 1 ' g The utter lack of logic, brains and knowledge of how to use them, consistency and unity of thought on the part ofthe Seniors have been perfectly demonstrated. As a representative of the junior class, 210 strong, I voice the opinion of all when I un- hesitantingly predict a great' futuere for my opponent as a writer of fiction. To illustrate: ' ' Did Clifford mention, among the numerous characteristics, of .the Senior class, Nerve ?- nerve of the type possessed by Sophomores, book agents, an-d soap-box-orators? Possibly he intended merely to give an illustration. Wfelli, he has! Behold the Spade, given intolthe, hands of these Seniors just one year ago. I tremble at the thought of the ignomliiiiousfate that has been yours since you fell into the hands of 1921, O Spade! Since they received this sacred imlplement, these braggarts have al- lowed it to rest, covered with dust and neglected, in an obscure corner of the top shelf of the closet of Mr. Fox's outer office, and when the .oiiice was rob-bed on the night of April 13, 1921, it was used by the thieves to pry open a filing cabinet. Great care, you Seniors have taken of the symfbol of all the work you ought to have clone, isnlt it? I might mention in passing that thejunior class banner disappeared from the oliice that night! ! ! It took these efficient, thorough Sen-iors fou-r days to elect a staff for the school year- book, Phois,-four days of wasted time and energy for nothing was gained by their futile discussion. Then, their choice for managing editor resigned, and the circulaton manager was elected to H11 his place, but these wonders forgot to elect a new circulation manager, so one ofthe few live wires of the class who evidently didfn't realize what he was do-ing when he joined that bunch in the fall of 1920, upon his arrival from XVorcester Academy, was forced to do double duty. Can you beat that for lack of efficiency and thoroughness? ' Now look at the Apokeepsian record for this year. With fourteen Seniors on the staff, holding down all the positions of importance but one, because they were Seniors, and only live Juniors, these few handicapped with Senior bosses, could you expect to see the paper out on time, or anything exceptionally good- in it? Subscripton manager was the one important post held by a junior, and with one of her assistants a Senior, and fourteen Seniors lee- turing throughout the school in behalf of the paper, could you expect a record number of subscriptions? Yet, with all these handicaps, 'junior management secured a circulation list second only to one since the Apokeepsian was first published. As to the support of the paper, the juniors subscribed far more heavily than the Seniors, and furnished quite as much ma- terial as these would-be leaders of school activities. Ninety per cent of the Senior contribu- tions came from the class president, and- he didn't have the nerve to sign even his initials to his work! VV hy did a debating team composed entirely of Seniors lose to Kingston? Are inmates of that hamlet superior intellectually to sons of P. H. S.? Not unless those sons are un- wonthy Seniors! Ananias, h-ere, worked himself up fearfully over that debate,-and Senior social activities. True, these children did secure Mr. Fox's permission to have a few couples down in the gym on the afternoon of january 15th, 'for what they had the nerve to describe in the Apokeepsian as a tea-party, Tea is about their speed, at that. But to continue, they ca- PHOIS-NINETEEN TVVENTY-ONE joled a few of their classmates and one or two Sophomores into furnishing the music, which sounded very much as if deaf m-en were playing by ear. And, though they disclaim any responsibility in the matter, it was the Seniors who manufactureda concoction of salt water and something that looked like fruit but did not taste or act like it, which passed as punch, served mainly from dish pans. Really, it was an inspiring sight to see the Senior boys abandon coats, vests and partn-ers and rush to the brew. How cutely they fished in the nethermost depths of the mixture for the painted marbles, they thought were cherries! Senior members of the basketball squad, tall of them ex-football menj, led this mob scene. The Senior Ball was somewhat better. As o-n all former occasions, the Juniors were theifavorites when the Seniors came to choose their partners. .By some accident the punch was very palatable, the music excellent, the decorations tasteful. just about the time the strains of Home Sweet Home rent the air the Senior boys got over their stiff and formal ways, too, though they did not quite descend to their natural insufferable childishness. They were actually human, that last five minutes, that is, all except those who wore dress suits and could not, therefore, look the part! The wonderful Senior school spirit, class unity, and morale glowed brightest this year in dramatics. These haughty, precocious youngsters thought Prunella too childish for the Dramatic Club to produce. Prunella, a classic of the English-speaking stage, child- ish! ! ! Exceptions to this rule include about ten Seniors who, despite the jeers, ridicule and pitying glances fro-matheir classmates, tried -out. Seven of these made the cast and ap- peared in the final production. And the only unfavorable comment to be heardiafterwards came 'from these Seniors, who send Rig Boy Case up here tonight to brag about their school spirit. I And now we come to the subject of athletics. True, the Seniors have done considerable in that line, but does that justify their criticizing the juniors, whose athletes are just as good as the Senior phenomes, and in many cases better, if not quite as numerous? As the Seniors of the school, it was their duty, not a mere matter of choice, to lead in each and every activit' es eciall ' a ' t' ' ' ' A 1 5, pi y s nine y per cent of that mob have had five years of school life in P. H. S. Vile Juniors have enjoyed three, to date. and yet these Seniors aim to make a compari- son, howling about their prowess in athletics to cover up their deplorable lack of support to the other branches of school life. lf fiction-writing bores you, Mr. Case, you will be a great success as a painter, for you have proved yourself an artist at spreading a very little over a very large surface. M The SC11iO1'S themselves have furnished the best evidence I have to prove the X'Vashington onument, here, a second Baron Munchhausen. No-ne of them will deny that they find the l,tllllED:I'S, as gndividfuals, very interesting. VVhy,'ninety per cent of the things the Honorable Str. ase, o .VVhat, has mentioned as Senior excellence, was a direct result of individual Seniors striving to win the approving glances of some particular junior. And the Seniors have admitted our superior excellence as a class by devoting more space to the Junior class in Phois, over which they have com-plete jurisdiction, than many Senior classes have had in the past. ' - l H We thank you for the Spade, Seniors, and wish vou both the best of luck Mav you win 21. success and happiness, and may this Spade receive better treatment in our hands than it did in yours.

Besides those on the Phois Staff, there are many who cooperated faith- fully and diligently. To begin with, the Freshman class elected Elizabeth Keller, Sanders Kline, and Gerald Flewelling as their representatives in supplying class sentiments for the book. Under the guidance of Miss jackson, who is always willing to help, the task was completed without a delay. The Sophomores cooperated in the same way. Marian Butts, Catherine Taylor, Dick Tow'nsend, and Bob Hill were elected to use thei-r wits, nerve, and judgment to show their fellow classmates either their faults or virtues. Miss Cotter and Miss Russell aided the Sophs in touching things up. But that's not all. The juniors, realizing next year's responsibilities, did their share with credit. The junior workers were Mary Feldsine, Jean Boyce, Ed Cummings and Bill Morris. Although they had a late start, their great effort, with Miss Stewart's, brought in the material on time. VVe es- pecially thank Miss Stewart for her work on the Class Night Program. It seems only right to mention, by way of appreciation, the work done by the Phois Staff itself. Probably the most valuable asset in any business is the ability to keep a promise. So it was with the edit- ing of the Phoisg helpfulness to .the the highest degree was keeping a promise to the letter. For her untiring effort and good-will Miss johnson deserves unlimited thanks for her helpfulness. Mr. Joseph was indispensable in matters of finance, his advice being not only needed but heeded. Then there are the literary department, the de- partment of photography, and the advertising department that should be praised for their accomplishments: for, if one unit failed to function, the whole machine was crippled. It was only through cooperation that we were able to keep going. The work of the art department under the guidance of Miss Van Zandt, is worthy of especial notice. The drawings by Agnes Caven and Elmer Tripp were exceptionally well done. The fronticepice of three colors is Miss Van Zandt's idea. A piece of linoleum, a printer's roller, some ink, a clothes wringer, and' a piece ot glass were the tools. Agnes, Trippy and Miss Van Zandt were the workers. The motto of the art department seems to be: Nothing succeeds like success. We should not forget our advertisers . You will find in most cases that the men who advertised in the Phois are the men who are most interested in the work of the High School. Now we have the oppor- tunity to show our appreciativeness' by patronizing those who patron- ize us. As a last word, let us thank all those who had any part in the Phois. Let us say to the juniors who will have the task next year, that we wish them all the success possible.
