V GussieW'ilde SECOND YEAR ROCK SPRINGS, WYOMING, MAY, 1912 25c PER COPY EDITORIAL OUR HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL has been a source of great mental agony for the editors. We hope it will not be such for the readers; and that they Will remember, though we are very brilliant young people, we cannot avoid a few mistakes. IN a few years we expect to see a splendid High School building erect- ed that Will excel all others in the state. It Will have all the modern im- provementsi-a gymnasium, laboratories, shops, and a department for do- mestic science. The latter will, without doubt, be appreciated by many of our girls and, perhaps, by some of our boys. We wish to extend our thanks to the people of Rock Springs Who have assisted in the progress of our High School. NEARLY every issue of the Phillips Exeter Monthly contains some of Toby Reavillls very interesting work; doubly interesting to us, perhaps, because Mr. Reavill was a student of the Rock Springs High School. FOR the first time during the existence of a High School in Rock Springs, there are enough Seniors to present a play With no assistance from other High School classes. This year they will present HA Mid-summer Nightls Dreamfl This play is one of Shakespeares classics, and would be difficult for any class but the Senior, to represent the character of the time of its composition. We do not want to appear conceited but one cannot help admitting the truth. 20

L ITE RARY Rock Springs vs. Alliance itI don,t care, fellows, you can say what you want, but there,s some mighty good baseball stuff in those Freshies. Here we are, making all sorts of fun of Shuster just because his manners arenit polished and he happens to be a little overgrown. But PH tell you, he could put a ball over the fence even if the best High School pitcher in Wyoming were in the box. Iive seen him play, and with a little practice why boys, hetd even put Max in the shade. This speech was unusually long for Captain Beverly, in whose room the Senior boys had met to discuss the material . for the sprng baseball team. Naturally enough, the conver- sation had turned upon the new students, at whose expense they were having a good deal of fun. The one who had re- ceived more attention than anyone else was Jack Shuster, tall, well built, but exceedingly bashful. While the Seniors were recovering from the surprise caused by the unusual enthusiasm of their captain, he broke in again, iiFellows, we need Shuster more than anyone else if we expect to keep the cup this year. A1- lianceis team is better than ever, and you know it was great last season. One by one the boys began to own up that they, too, had seen Shuster play and that his strength and ability were unequalled. Before the crowd dispersed that night, it was unanimously voted that Shuster should play second base on the High School team. All through the season the Rock Springs team won the games played with the other High Schools of the state; now only the game with Alliance remained. itHang it ail, fellows, I canit play in the game today. I just received a letter from mother, and though she doesnit mind my playing in the small games, she wonit let me play today. She thinks thereis too much excite- ment in big games. Imagine a little excitement affecting a big fellow like rnefi Shuster laughed in an embarrassed way. tiSay, Shuster, stop your joking and get ready. Donit you think Iim worried enough without your ttornniy rot, ii exclaimed the captain in a pro- voked tone. 2-2
