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?

4 THE HIGH SCHOOL RECORDER CLASS HISTORY BY AUDREY O,RAIDY That the four years of High School are over seems incredible, but a diary which I came across today among some old papers shows that this is an unquestionable fact. Sept. 27, 1923- Actually in High School at last! The upper classmen are already beginning to complain about our number for we are the largest Freshman class. Thatis all right. Welll soon deserve praise and if We donlt get iteWell, they may complain with reason then. Oct. 20, 1923- What an exicting time we Biology pupils had yesterday. Why? Because Mrs. Phelps took us to Albany to inspect the Educational Building. We must admit that there were many things there we didnt know about, including the Indians and fossils. In fact Mary Giffen has changed her aim in life. When she saw what the bottom of the sea is really like she decided not to be a mermaid after all. Oct. 27, 1923e The most awful thing happened. Our school house burned. And such confusion! The Board disposed of the children from N0. 4 and now a grade school is the High School. We are having school only in the afternoonematinees, While the upper classmen are still going in the morning. They would. Sept. 15, 1924e- Once more the Class of ,27 has come together. This time we are a dignified, thoroughly organized body, The Sophomores, with Nelson Hastings as president. The faculty are gratified at the advance we made under their direction last year. We were just getting started. This year We shall be in full swing. Helen Foote and Paul Kellogg will be busy writing up all our activities for the Recmder. Nov. 12, 1924e Some of our members are going to be money makers, according to the new system which they have introduced. Each week every student is to pay into a school budget live cents toward school ex- penses.
