XX ROCHESTER, N. Y., OCTOBER 7, 1924 NO. 17 Fall Greetings Ave! Vale! This ancient inscription is often found over the ruined doorways or in the entrance to the houses of old Pompeii. It was the Roman custom to use it as a salutation and a farewell to the guests of the Roman home. Hail and Farewell! It would not be in- appropriate over our high school doorway. Last June as a school we said farewell to a very considerable group of our number. Now, in turn, we give a greeting hail to a still larger number who for the first time join our school familyg and these have just said farewell to the schools from which they come. To'all you who come as strangers to our school community we give a cordial welcome. You will not long remain strangers here, for this is now your school. Its interests are your interestsg its opportunities are your oppor- tunities. And the honor, the good name, of the VVest High School are in your keeping. It is a line thing to hold in high regard that school from which you came. Loyalty to one does not forbid nor even lessen ability to hold loyalty to another. Like any other human quality loyalty may be cultivatedg it may be- come a habit. It is a splendid thing in all the relations of life. Loyal people are the ones we trust and rely upon. This is just the quality that makes worthy human organizations possible and that makes them effective for splendid service. It begins with loyalty to one's ,home and familyg it de- velops into loyalty to friendsg loyalty to church and to schoolg loyalty to the community, loyalty to the state and to the nation. And when men everywhere shall sense the deep fundamental principle expressed in loyalty that is as widespread as the human race, war will be doomed and peace assured. For Loyalty Is Unselfishness In Action. William M.,Bennett. V f i P, Fizfe I f ,X I l 1 X, SDXXQCIDQ DX' 4 'Why Fathers Turn Gray ! 'By Doris Garnish HE eminent Dr. Edimetz drew a long sigh of relief. At last, his fondest dream was realized! Before him reposed, completed, his wondrous invention known only to himself. It was to show, first him, then the world, the truth concerning that much dis- cussed, but sphinx-like planet, Mars. Every- thing was in readiness for the decisive test which was to take place that evening with him as the sole audience.. The weird-looking machine was of the nature of a motion-picture camera. A powerful tele- scope pointed toward the heavens, through the huge opening in the ceiling of the laboratory, while a vast number of lenses focused upon a screen resembling that of a movie emporium. Innumerable wires were woven in and out of the contraption in an interesting and elusive manner. However, the machine, as a whole, possessed a very innocent appearance for a factor supposedly destined to affect the futures of two or more worlds. Pride of possession radiated from the owner's whole being. Here, at last was the child of his brain, waiting to print his name forever on the pillar of fame! Vague vissions of his own glory and honor passed delightfully before his eyes. Wonderful-wonderful-. This pleasing meditation was suddenly cut off by the ,equally sudden entrance of the scientist's young, and happily, only son. Two words can most fitly describe this important young person. And those--Joe, College. There you have him. Flapping trouser leg, baggy coat, screeching tie, inevitable pipe, col- lar-ad profile. H'lo,- Dad, -how's business? Have a smoke P was the casually pleasant greeting. f'No, thanks, shortly. A Not at all abashed, his offspring continued- Beastly hot day, what? Should think you'd lay off for a while-er-a little golf or the like-nothing like it, you know. But I say the ole invention's coming right along---whadye Sin' , call this thing ? picking up a small lense from a table. Please don't touch anything, Frederick. And now to get at the real issue, how much am I indebted to you for this visit ? Freddy had the grace to redden? Well, it's like this. Dad, you see, I-that is to say-Billy Schuyler and I-er-well, had sort of a smash-up the other night and- How fast were you going ? Well, I was only doing about, well, not more than sixty-five, but he was doing eighty anyway. It was really his fault but my buggy is pretty well banged up. With an air of long-suffering patience, Dr. Edimetz drew out his cheque-book. How much will it take ? . Freddy named the amount, slightly raised, on general principles. After receiving what he had, verily, come for, the young man stood for a moment playing with the cheque and frown- ing a little. Not enough ? queried the father. Well, you see, Dad,'I really need some new clothes. Getting so I've nothing to wear. Sorry, but that will have to do for now. You've already had twice your allowance. Now, when I was your age- Further discourse was interrupted by the entrance of a third member of the scientist's household. This time a girl of about eighteen years was the interloper. She also was typical of this swiftly-moving era. With the aid' of sleek bobbed hair, rouged cheeks, dress so short and sleeveless as to be almost no dress at all, and the other common and well-known accessories, she flapped her way blithely and irresponsibly onward. I-I, how perfectly darling to find you both here ! she gushed. Daddy dear, please, I want a party! Just a wee, little one, in the garden. You said I might, you xx I ! ' ff f FSQCIDEA Q' 4 know, if I came in early for a while, and I did. Twelve-thirty every night for a week straight! Isn't that wo-onderful? Please, could I? Oh, I knew you'd let me, and Freddy will you round me up slews of men? It'll just be gee-lorious! Then we-i' And sobon and on till at last Dr. Edimetz, who was almost overwhelmed by this avalanche of- feminine prattle, called a halt. 'I suppose I might just as well say, yesfnow and have it over. You'll manaQge it out of .nge anyway. But while you're both here, I'd like to have a little talk with yougffl VYoufife been himto jerk down the windows with a jfew terse and pointed remarks. ' p I Then he turned to his masterpiece and after adjusting affewknobs andelevers, leaned back in his chair to 'await developments. -At first nothing happened. Then gradually, vague forms began to take shape on the whitie screen. -- Tense. in his seat, the inyjQ.U,'GQE Watched. Then, as thedigures, grew more-dfistinct, he gasped in astonishment. -Forithere was pictured almost tl'fe,frelp,lica of the scene below, ,excepting thatuit was-1-fworse! having a good tune all summer andnow I think' ' it i its about time that you begin tovthink of more serious things. You young people of today' .WA fail to realize the, great responsibility',being placed on your--J' ' o Oh, Freddee4ee! .interrupted she of the shorn locks, Let's have it tonight! The Green Rooster eight are in town and we could get them if we ran right into town! C'mon-get a car,-mine's on the Fritz-an' let's go!

'Saw- fully hard to get ahold of this orchestra, floated over Freddy's shoulder, and they were gone like that. No time for anything but jazz- ing, speeding, playing, always playing! I-Ie didn't understand this younger generation. That night the Edimetz home was one of buzzing activity. Down in the garden, festivity was at its height. Girls in frocks of every description and hue were waited upon by youths, slews of them, each the counterpart of the otherf For the most part, the young people were grouped about a band of sound- makers, who were going through all sorts of physical contortions to produce what was being broadcasted, by their audience as those- Sad and drearee-ee Make me wearee-ee Blu-e-ue-es. These weird noises reached the ears of Dr. Edimetz, high in his great laboratory, causing .,i.. ,K-1' ' HE scene was laid in a garden much like his'own. Girls, with hair shorn except on the tops of their heads, where it was frizzed unmercifully, wearing dresses, made with an apparent scarcity of material, with stockings openly and unmistakably rolled, tilted around on four-inch heels, held by youths garbed in trousers much resembling the voluminous skirts which our grandmothers affected, wide belts, and decollete and sleeve- less shirts of silk. They were moving Qone could not call it dancingj to the music repro- duced by a queer-looking individual, unlike anything on earth, who was performing on an instrument which was a cross between a saxa- phone and a modern washing machine. Shudderingly, Dr. Edimetz twisted another knob of his contrivance, to shift the scene. It could not all be like that first exotic glimpse. This time a peaceful country-side scene was flashed upon the screen. For a moment all was still. Then suddenly something huge and black darted across and was swiftly lost from View. Excitedly the spectator, quickly adjusted his machine, enabling him to follow the fight of the strange object which sped through space faster than anything he had ever ,seen on earth. But gradually the vehicle was slowing upg finally it stopped. Again the scientistfgasped. For this speed demon was only an automobile. fContinued on page 251 - Seven ..

S ecretary REPORTERS MAURICE FAUGH EDNA MANLEY MAY COLLINS HELEN HARMON GLADYS RIDGELY MARY BETH WI-IALEY CHARLES SHANTZ GEORGE CLARK RAYMOND KIRKPATRICK ROBERT SCHROEDEL Something is wrong somewhere. A mild riot of consternation ensued in one of the recent class meetings when the faculty advisors announced the new bug bear Why? -pardon us-ruling, providing that any student a member of the eighth period, was debarred from class offices or from membership on the school executive board. There is no consistency in this ruling which shows unmistakable evidence of the faculty's desire to force a student who is not the best 'of scholars to become an outcast as far as stu- dent activities are concerned. The new rule would perhaps be a bit more bearable if it were carried out in all these activities, but at present it applies merely to student officers, class offices, and council membership. These are the offices which demand less at- tention and application than the sport teams, to whom the new ruling does not apply. The council meets occasionally, perhaps once a month, for generally a period lasting less than a half hour. During the athletic seasons, mem- Eight bers of the teams are excused from the eighth period regularly to attend practices. Mr. Stowell tells us each year that we are all members of the XVest High School Student Association and as such entitled to vote and hold office. This same rule is in effect at our sister school East High, where there is no eighth period. We hope the faculty executive board can explain this ruling which is appar- ently a puzzle to the student body. ooo, Can you laugh with your pupils ?,' This should by all means be a stock ques- tion among the list regularly asked hopeful pedagogues seeking em- If Our Teachers ployment.

XX X i ' ff FSQCIDEA bf' 4 A sense of humor is an attribute of good character. Nothing can make a teacher solider with his pupils than to display a set of white molars in a genuine, honest to good- nenss grin the first day of school. The students will strive to understand him from that day on, because they will have found that he's a regular fellow. Once someone wrote eleven commandments for teachers. Qne of the eleven was written in capital letters: O O O To keep with the cultural growth of Roches- ter-its 'art galleries, public schools and con- cert music-the LeRoy Collins Management is introducing to Rochester a Series of Five Professional attractions for Project young people.

I 0 O 0 A New Co-operation-how often we preach that word and how often do we cast away oppor- tunities to practice it! Too often do we thoughtlessly fail to do our Co-operation bit and cause much unneces- sary trouble for one person. For instance-if. in the lunch room, we should all co-operate with the teacher in charge by clearing up our dishes, taking back our milk bottles, and placing our waste papers in the proper containers, we would have a neater lunch room. Also, consider this-with which teacher do we stand the better chance of receiving a good mark? The teacher who has been compelled to clear up' our dishes, take our milk bottles back. and pick up our papers, and eat his own meal in great haste, or one with whom' the lunch period duty has easily taken its course?

A good time was had by all but the dawg! Evelyn Beyer spent a very delightful vaca- tion right here in Rochester, and that's not the first report either that Rochester is a pretty good place to live in during the vacation!

All reports tend to show that he is studying hard and win- ning honors in his work, which is a difficult one. A letter received from Mr. Sias recently states that he will be glad to see the halls of old West High and the pupils who haunt them. This feeling is reciprocated, for certainly it will bring quite as much joy to see him in the West High halls or at his regular desk. In the meantime best wishes of all the students are with him as he toils and grinds.

The praise, the honor, the popu- larity all reflected back to Mr. Spouse. Since Mr. Spouse has been so interested as to devote time outside of school to drill his clubs, it is expected that the students repay that favor. All that is asked is that all students who possess a little vocal ability come to see Mr. Spouse immediately concerning their ad- vent into one of the choruses or glee clubs. I O O O Ladies of Faculty Spend X Summer in Various Ways Miss Manchestewspent the summer months at her home in Newport. A Miss Halstead made two eventful trips to New England by motor and train.

' 6 - 1 x 1 l Forward Line Will Be Strongest Point Of Veteran Occidental Soccer Eleven Coach Ralph Tichenor's Bunch of Veterans Looks for League Title By Harry Meyer For the past two years, Coach Ralph Tiche- nor, better known as Tic, Occidental mentor, has had everything but good material from which to pick a winning soccer combination. Contrary to the past, the Orange and Black skipper or pilot, whatever you wish, has this season a flock of veterans from both the first and second teams. Besides these men, who, in a rough estimate number around thirty, are new comers who have turned out on the athletic held with the fervid intention of making the team. - Although the Genesee Street Institution loses seven veterans, namely: jackson. Loucks, Serenatti, Westbrook, Odell and Rowley, the losses will not be keenly felt. jackson is lost through graduation while Row- ley finally wound up his p. g. course. Serenatti, Odell and Loucks, who found no prospects in school and no laurels knocking at their doors, left. Red Harry, who was the talk of the newspapers last year, is attending school but will be unable to go out for soccer. R Tichenor found little difficulty in picking a goalie since Ham Niven and Dick Rich, two reliable lads, are available. Rich will, in all probability, carry most of the goal tending burden with Niven sharing in one of the half- back positions, where he is equally as good. Fourteen Losing two fullbacks, the backfield may seem to be completely shattered. Several men from the scrub team, Hall and Katsampes, are con- tenders. Mope Fahy, the honest spit ball artist, will, undoubtedly, occupy a fullback posi- tion. Tichenor can spare Fahy from the half- back line, having plenty of halfback material in store. V Halfback Line Strong For a strong halfback line, Tichenor has a choice of the following men: Hall, Richardson, Collier, Niven, Chet Harry and Hodgeson. This year, Tichenor will center everything about Chet, who was the all-scholastic choice the past three years. The forward line is expected to turn out the best offensive combination of any team in the league. No East High backfield, not even last yearys. would be able to withstand the pounding our forwards are able to administer. Every man on the squad possesses a sure boot and it will take more than scholastic backmen to stop their bullet speed drives. - Veteran forwards are plentiful, Woodbridge, Storandt, Shantz, Persse, Kirkpatrick, Warner and Decker being last year's mainstays. Many new promising forward candidates may bloom forth into the limelight before the season ex- pires. With a 'vicinity championship in sight, the team must be given perfect support by each student of the school. Bill Smith is the newly elected manager of the'soccer eleven. ,X N l ' f, f sggcinrah' 4 Five First Team Veterans Eligible for Court Team Storandt, Fumia, Brown, Katsampes, and Schroclel To Form Nucleus of Basketball Team BY HARRY MEYER If the battle-scarred Ralph Tichenor, the coach with the winning smile, recovers from the effects of the soccer season, which is now in full swing, he will soon issue a call for basketball candidates. It is hoped by each and every member of the school that Tic recovers as prospects of a crack and unusual basketball five are insight. The fact that our school was wretchedly rep- resented in basketball last season, has no effect on this yearlspossibilities. Several men who were barred from participating in the game last season, will be on hand next month for the practices. Had these men played last year, it might have been an entirely different story. Forgetting the past season, and looking over the prospects, new material, and the veterans, West High has a wonderful opportunity to be represented by a winning team. The Occidentals lost Bump Howard, one of the best guards this state has ever laid eyes on. It is going to be a long time before West High will have another man of Howard's ability. Besides him, the Orange and Black suffers the loss of Bill Darling and Russell McFarland. Darling was lost through graduation while Packy, the perfect lover and most studious of all, is handling the faculty's medicine. Tichenor will look forward to five first team veterans besides an innumerable flock of scrub team veterans. The tive first team letter men are: Paul Woodridge, center, Paul Kat- sampes and Howard Brown, guards, Robert Schroedel, Lloyd Storandt and Victor Fumia, forwards. All these men have had plenty of experience and a crack team is expected. Merton Fahy, Robert Harmon, Wesley Ash- ton, Edward Hall, Raymond Kirkpatrick, Austin Bleyler, and James Shedd compose the squad of second 'team veteran men. COOL WEATHER WILL BRING p FIRST CALL FOR WRESTLERS As soon as it is cool enough to work inthe gymnasium, Coach Hulek will issue a call for tumblers. The team is going after City Championship honors this year and by the looks of things, they have a fine chance. The mat sport is get- ting to be quite a pastime in our school, judg- ing 'from the amount of interest shown by the student body last year. Five veterans remain from last year's team, which made East High and Tech High step along to capture first honors. The latter men who returned to school are Shorty Barons of the featherweight class, joe Krank who did wonders in the 135 lb. class, Bob Knight of the 140 lb. class, Gilbert Sandholzer of the 145 lb. class, and Anthony Gentile of the 120 lb. class. The team will suffer a great loss in the heavyweight class as Art Moehlman and Horse Bishop have not returned to school. Moehlman graduated and Bishop will not re- turn to school until January. A ' The league will again operate this year with teams representing East High, West High, Tech. High, Charlotte High and Kodak High. These teams will ,meet once at week for eight weeks to decide the city high school champion- ship. It looks like a big season for the mat artists. I 0 Each one of these men will battle away at the practices to earn a place on the first team. It would not be surprising if several former second team men are seen in the first team lineup. Bobby Fisher, star fof last year's second team, islost through graduation. As is well known, West High is one of the five teams in a league,'drawn up by the Health Education Department. Besides these games, the Occidental manager, Richard Jackson, is booking some fast outofttown teams, for play on open dates.

The following first round matches were played: Paul Woock, present West High Champion, defeated James Little, 10-8. Art Plant, one time Caddy Champion, defeated the Junior City Champ, Ward Mitchell, 4-3. Harold Rohrer defeated Don Renehan, 6-4. A silver cup will be awarded the winner of the tournament.

O 0 O Wealth of Swimming Material Predicts Banner Year in Tank The first call for the swimming squad brought forth a wealth of promising material. Things are shaping up fine for a banner year in the tank and several good meets have been arranged. Meets have been scheduled with Hutchinson High of Buffalo and St. Iohn's School at Manlius. With most of last year's squad back, Coach Benson is starting in to form a smooth aggre- gation. Charlie Mercer, city breast-stroke champion, and James Little, city fifty yard champ, will 'form the nucleus of the team. Other veterans back this year are Miller and Coe, divers, Montgomery, a relay man, and Masters in the 200 yard swim. A captain and manager will be elected later in the season. Sixteen , . Three Occidental Track Men Enter City Championship Meet Although no West High athletes placed in the city championship track meet Saturday, September 13, thanks is due those who went out on the Genesee Valley Park track in an effort to bring back honors to the Genesee Street Institution. Q Charles Shaver, Edward Decker and Paul Rekers. all of the VVest High track team, made their appearance. Rekers placed fourth in the pole vault but that place was not taken into consideration. The students should give these athletes a hearty hand, as they deserve it.

LES MISERABLE' By Dauber Chapter I. A man sat on a wall. Walls were invented by somebody and improved upon by somebody else. The Chinese were the greatest customers of the wall factory. The man still sat on the wall. Chapter II. The sun went down. It got tired of staying up. Darkness came on. Darkness is a great shadow which arises from the earth when the sun gets underneath. The man got down from the wall. He was afraid the wall would break. It did. That's why he got down. Chapter III. He walked across the street. Streets are good things. Walk in the street and you can collect your 75c accident policy. He went into a house. He saw Marie, his sweetheart. She was kissing another man. He was shocked. Chapter IV. Marie said to him, I will marry the man who brings me a stewed lobster. Stewed lobsters are patentedg all those appearing with- out the author's signature are infringements. They will be only prosecuted. A Chapter V. Our hero was tall and handsome. All heroes are. All the girls like heroes. Some heroes like girls. This hero liked but one girl. Marie is the heroine. The other fellow is the vil- lain, The villain is dark. He has a mouse- tash. All villains have. Chapter VI. The hero faced the moon and said, I will do this even tho my life be forfeited. All heroes do this. Then he took the villain with him. Marie cried when they went. The heroine always cries. Chapter VII. They approached an inn. The villain rapped on the door. The door opened. They walked in. The villain ordered gin. The hero drank milk. The villian got intoxicated. Intoxica- tion is the state one experiences when large quantities of ethyl alcohol are blotted up. Chapter VIII. ' The hero reached in his pocket and with-' drew a block and tackle. He tied a cable around the intoxicated villian. Then he drew on a rope and turned the villian upside down. Fighting is prohibited in this stateg only pugilists can fight. They get money for it. When we fight, we get thirty days. Chapter IX. He put the villian' on his back and carried him to Marie. Marie was all dressed up. She said she was going to marry another fellow. The hero handed her the stewed lobster which he made from the villian. She spurned it. The heroine always does. Chapter X. The hero went home and put on his red flannel B. V. D's. Then he went and ate the stewed lobster. He liked to eat stewed lobster. It reminded him of his father. His father was a bootlegger. Chapter XI. The heroine came from her house on her husbandis arm. He was a very strong inang he must have been. She saw a man lying on the walk. I-le had stewed lobster sticking from his throat. He had died a noble death.. Bride sings: And at the coronerys inquest They called it suicide. Seventeevi 17262 --Wfga E The rose blooms forth over night. The rose we have reference to is one, Floyd Cooper, he of the admirable smile and a vocab- ulary all his own. Floyd, as we know him, was always a good fistic fanatic, but only lately, exactly two weeks ago, did he blossom forth in all his roseate glory as an athlete-a soccer player of, if not the first, at least the second water. Floyd himself claims to have been surprised at his sudden handiness with his feet. His first experience on the soccer pitch was .the day of the third practice of our noble soccer squad when the Dour Scot mustered courage enough to fall in at the end of the line of soccer hope- fuls. Tichenor spotted him, admired him, and de- clared him a master of the honorable Dutch Contest. There is a powerful moral lesson in this. It is: Little do we know our own possibilities until we give them a chance to show off. MINCEMEAT A singular honor was conferred upon us the other day. VVe were allowed the liberty of placing our personal scrawl in the autograph book of Kenneth QDukej Haskins. We got more satisfaction, if possible, in carefully going through the thick covered book, than we did in placing our Hancock on one of the pages. Notable are the signatures therein contained and more notable are their owners. Strange enough, the more beautiful half of the student body seems to possess the best sense of humor. Where the quotations of the males are at times pointless, those of the ladies are spicey, artless and full of meaning, not always hidden. We have suggested to the Duke that his Eighteen book of knowledge be placed on view in the library during the forthcoming Know Your School VVeek. Eh-VV hat ? MIN CEME.-XT The Fervent Faculty now asks, nay expects, us to dig right in to our books and assimilate facts, educational and otherwise. Personally, we think the F. F. takes a lot for granted when it assumes we are in a fit mood to tackle and conquer brain-paralysing studies because we have been allowed to separate ourselves from them for the all too brief period of not quite three months. . Nvhat to do! -M RHNCEMEAT A After all-how ignorant we are! The young ladies of the institution have now proceeded to locate and emphasize waist lines, something we had come to think they never possessed. Gone are the snaky effects. Gone are the sweeping long skirts. In their place the high waist line and medium length skirt. Somewhere, somebody is accumulating any number of shekels just sitting still and think- ing up new arrangements of ladies draperies. That's our idea of a position. J. H.

But the crowning touch was the driver, a youth attired much after the same manner of those of the garden party. The car was filled and overflowing with his kind, who were laughing and pointing triumphantly back to the road over which they had just seemingly flown. Deeply disgusted, Dr. Edimetz twisted an- other knob. There must be something worth- while, on some part of the planet. The next scene was laid in a luxurious home much resembling those 'of this planet with the slight exception that the rugs were suspended from the ceiling, while lights shed their glow from the floor. However, the center of attrac- tion lay in a group composed of an elderly man and woman, logically the mother and father, and another of those freakish looking girls. The latter was holding up for the inspection of an equally freakish youth, a coat apparently of canary feathers. She appeared to be ex- plaining something about it. , After a moment, the young man nodded ap- provingly and handed her a slip of white paper, evidently a checque. Then he turned to the older woman and appeared very much annoyed when she began to talk and point to the pile of groceries, woolen underwear, medi- cine, and bills, at her side. The man held a golf-bag and some books on his lap. He wore a worried expression. . For a moment he regarded it in silence. Then resolutely seizing a hammer, demolished his in- vention beyond recognition, with a few deft strokes. That's as far as those ideas will- go on this earth, he said tersely. Up from the garden floated the wailing ot the saxaphones and the voices of the young people, raised in telling the world in general that: If the Moon is made of green cheese, it must be cheap on Mars. ll E fe?
