THE HIGH SCHOOL RECORDER I . Aim Our last year has come to a c10se-a year Which, as we look back, has been full of accomplishment. In the literary field the Recwder has set a high standard, which has won recognition from its exchanges and other critics. One story, Elijah and the Damself by Mary Giffen, was chosen by The School Press Review as a fitting representative of high school work for the month of March. This we consider a mark of distinction both for the paper and the author. We next look at the work of the Debate Club, and find that this group held its own in every debate of a busy season. Hard subjects were tackled tooewater power, war debts and football. In defeat and victory, the team never fell short of the ideals set by the Club. In the field of athletics we note the triumph of the S. H. S. Basketball players as they again won the title of Sectional Cham- pions; and 0f the Baseball team which has ,just won its pennant in a determined struggle for league honors. Socially has the year been a success? A partial answer is fur- nished by the Senior hop, Senior play, as well as several attractive tea dances which enlivened the gym? But now we have come to the end. The Recorder staff is sorry. For us it has been a pleasant though busy yearepleasant though busy because of the cheerful, unselfish encouragement and assistance of our Literary advisor, Miss Gorman. We realize deeply that with- out her guidance the way would have been missed more than once. May we take this opportunity to express our sincere appreciation of her efforts? Regretfully we relinquish the management to our successors. ttTo you we throw the torch, Be yours to hold it high?
