It was but four short years ago that our caravan, The Class of '29 , started out on that long, perilous route to that distant land, Graduation',. The very thought of our journey's end sends thrills of joy and fear through every member of our train. For, when we reach Graduation, we shall have passed by one happy milestone in our lives and be about to set forth on a new life-long journey. It was hard traveling at first, the roads seemed rocky and endless. Unaccustomed to the new route, we were beginning, it was easy for many of our comrades to become discouraged. It was found necessary to elect officers to guide us on our way. Under the capable leadership of Donald J. McNerney, his assistant Margaret Carr, secretary, Chris- tine Carr, and financier, Donald Ramsay, our progress was not further delayed. I flike Ciceroilj will pass over the difficulties and hardships of that first year. We were all pretty green in this new adventure and the worst part of it was that we realized it. Nevertheless, we didn 't lose heart. Why, how could we when we had our old friend Mrs. Douglass with us? She helped to keep up our spirits by leading us in a new song of her own composition. We were Hlled with a new zeal to renew our journey. To break the monotony of constant traveling, we made it a point to get together at least once during the year, for a really good time. The first party will always be a memorable night to all who attended, since a stronger rival band of adventurers tried to capture our master of ceremonies for the evening. Owing to the loyal efforts of our friend's supporters, they were unsuccessful in their attempt. Things looked brighter, the second year. The skies were not so cloudy nor the roads so rough. The Honorable Edward Burleigh was appointed our new leader for the coming year. His assistant was An- na Simmons, secretary, Josephine Ruffino and financier, Donald Mc- N erney. A great many difficulties and questions arise on such a trip as we were taking and so we made the wise Miss VVynn our adviser. She never failed us in our troubles. Another banquet was enjoyed the sec- ond yearg and, as the custom seemed to be for rival travelers to abduct our leaders, we were on our guard. However they were partly success- ful, for Ward Manchester was captured. 0 E .-'- i if , ' ' . A - l A 'I v ' T 1 V, At the end of our second year, we eagerly looked forward to the next year, in which we were sure much more territory could be covered. A successful start was begun by making Arthur Ryan connnantler-in- chief of the troop, assistant., Christine Carr: secretary, Josephine Rui'- fino and treasurer. Lester Case. The faitliful Miss Kinnear was ap- pointed adviser for thc year. Oh! yes, there was another banquet that year, and it was too good to pass over. XVliat a very enjoyable evening it turned out to be. However, I haven 't spoken as yet of the greatest event of that third year, The Prom . It happened that on February seventeenth, 1928, we arrived in a town, which boasted of a very beauti- ful mediaeval castle. Of course our party wished to visit it, and we were fortunate in obtaining its use that evening for a dance. The ball room was artistically designed in blue and gold, after the fashion of mediaeval days. It would be impossible to try to tell what a huge suc- cess the Prom was. After that very enjoyable evening, we returned to our caravan for the continuation of the trip. At last, the time is drawing nearer when we will have reached our point of destination. The last year of journeying is here and is passing away too rapidly for many of our happy party. Under the leadership of Ralph Diamond, president and Christine Carr, vice-president, Leo Decker, secretary and Horace Blood, treasurer, this year has been the most successful one of all. Our adviser for the final year is Miss Hunn. We have faithfully tried to carry out our motto, You 've watched the rest, now watch the best , by doing all we could to make the trip a happy and successful one. The Class of '29 extends its best wishes to all those who will someday journey along the Road of Knowledge, which leads to success. M.

Come with me to Bata- vianese, the land of the rising sun. It is a festival day 011 this beautiful little island, Hunn Avenue, the principal street, is gayly decorated with attractive blue and white ban- ners andthe inhabitants are attired in kimonas of every hue, presenting a kaleidoscope of color. They are celebrating the En1peror's birthday. IVhile I ani waiting for the great parade to form, my attention is drami to the attractively decorated buildings on either side of the ave- nue. The first sign that meets my eye is Mouth Organs, Pop Guns and Sleeping Powdersl'-'tlV. Manchester and A. Olsen, Proprietors . The next sign that I see is one advertising a kimona factory owned by two well-known gentlemen, Vincent Serve and Frederick Howe, and, directly back of me, what should I see but a new beauty shop operated by the Misses Margaret Gentner and Christine Carr. Signs on the out- side show that they also sell silk stockings and hair nets of all shades made from human hair. NValking down the street a short distance, what do you think I see? A new and queer-looking restaurant. Above the door a very noticeable sign catches my eye, Rice and iVeiner Munching House . This being very peculiar and I being very inquisitive, I decide to investigate. I walk inside, and, to my amazement, whom should I see but Mush Moynihan and Ted Manicas, chop sticks in hand ready to wait on customers. It would be a very busy day for them. Across the street beneath a huge Batavianese umbrella Harry Mullen is explaining to some citizens the virtues of his 'tget thin quick remedy with living examples of its efficacy- Freddie Stakel before taking and Charlie Copoulos after. I recall that Harry was an excellent scientist in his school days. The hour for the parade has arrived and I hear the strains of a familiar melody tThe Blue and the W'hiteJ in the distance. Over the hill at the north of the avenue comes the big attraction of the day. First in line are the jesters, and say! Can they act goofy? All the people are going Wild when they see Arthur Ryan and Wesson Taber acting up, and I think Wesson must have been on time once in his life because the parade started right on the dot. Tweet! Tweet !-here comes the band. The mighty Ken Weber with his six foot baton is proudly leading his famous musicians. Among them I see James Simpson, Ralph Snell and Howard Verbridge all ham- mering their way to fame on their tom-toms. ,E-jf: , , , + 1 , 2 J ,L V u ..,.T,.,,' . ty. ,skagn 1-A-nt' , Directly behind the band comes the noble emperor, Ralph Diamond, dressed in a magnificent scarlet satin robe which is richly embroidered with gold dragons. With his long flowing beard and wavy hair, he 1S no doubt the most handsome emperor the island has ever seen. Surely no emperor in all the history of Batavianese had ever evoked greater homage. He is riding in a magnificent jinrikisha Qdesigned and con- structed by Bermie Wurtzman and Francis Biddlecombj and is being drawn by 'tEd Manthey and Jimmy Coons, his two faithful coolies. Ed and Jimmy did a great deal of drawing in their high school days. , . ,A l L Eollowing the emperor are a number of attractive floats, the out- standing one being that of living Batavianese dolls. Among them I recognize the familiar faces of Marian Ingraham, Miriam Lowe, Olivia Schafer, Genevieve Klein, and Anna Sinmions. There had been a great deal of strife among the coolies, I was told, as to who would draw this fioat but the honor fell to Bailey Collister, t'Ed Burleigh, Bob Leinm, Howard Hosmer and John Fiero. They always did have a drag with the women. I Next in line are groups of very dignified-looking natives represent- ing the various organizations of the island. The Rice Growers' Asso- ciation, the most prominent company represented, leads with their beau- tiful banner Heating in the breeze. The omcers of this company are marching first and who should they be but Grant Gardner, Horace Blood, and Stuart lVade. In the center of their group is a float being drawn by some coolies on which is exhibited a new mechanical invention made by Lester Case and Bill Faylor for expanding the rice kernels to the size of small potatoes. There were many other interesting exhibits which held my attention for some time. Surely these are progressive people. As the last of the parade passes, I join the crowd and follow to the festival grounds where a banquet is to be given for the mighty Emperor and numerous contests are to be held. The banquet hall has been made into a fairyland of beauty, the cherry blossoms being used in abundance. I am told that the decorat- ing was done under the careful supervision of 'WValt Kornowski. Everyone prophecied during his many years in high school that he had a career ahead of him. I notice in the center of the banquet table a huge birthday cake made in the form of a miniature pagoda geometri- cally designed by Gerald Tuttle and Charlotte Duffy. Thanks to the aid of geometry! Joe Ryan proves to be a very able toastmaster, keep- ing the company entertained with his every ready wit. At the close of the banquet delicious punch, made by Peter Peca and Anthony Di Carlo, is served to the guests. Punch was not a new thing to them. I remem- ber how they carried off the honors in boxing in their younger days. N F f e,.L, '-.,fiv..4, , ' 9355 - . wZ1.'f'- ' Q- .3 ff? V- A, Following the banquet we are entertained at the park where there is a kite fiying contest scheduled. Dave Minor, Allen McNerncy and Earl Norton, the contestants, walk boldly out into the center ol' the field. iVe look on with wonder as a great dragon and two peculiar birds soar high in the air. liligher and higher they mount, one is now out of sight 5 yes, Dave is the winner and why 11ot, l1is kite had quite a start. Suddenly the monotonous drone ot' toni-toms comes to me from across the park, and, rushing over to see what it is all about, here on a raised platform in front of nie are Dot Kidder and her geisha girls including Kay Neaverth and Pauline Cooper giving an exhibition of modern dancing alld receiving much applause. 'Nearby is a small tent, over the entrance of which is a sign in Batavianese characters reading Mind Reading-Two Yen. I enter and iind Ruth Lawson, Margaret Carr, and Josephine Ruifino busy with their profession. They have read everything that has been published and now are reading minds. Pre- senting my fee to them, I take a seat opposite Ruth. She looks into my eyes and says that it wouldn't pay so I decide to spend my money in some other place. I think that I will look around for the other attractions. Just as I am about to leave the tent, who should enter but Matthew Cichowski, all dolled up for the occasion. I learn that he is the emperor's chief news reporter who knows about everything and everybody. Up-on inquiry he says that Al Masse is living in Ireland now, a second Lindbergh and that he is expected that very hour. Suddenly the purr of a motor be- comes audibleg and, looking upward, I see a green aeroplane preparing to land. Chico and I decide to go over to the field and join in the Welcome. Here I am surprised to find the other members of the class appointed as delegates by the emperor to welcome any strangers that might be visiting the island for the festival. NVhen the plane grace- fully reaches its landing, ' 'AP' steps out of the cockpit and we exchange greetings. He tells me he is on the Way to the United States and is stopping over to see the Hreworks and evening festivities. This cer- tainly is luck for me. He asks me to join him on the remainder of his trip. We take off the next morning with a feeling of regret in our hearts at leaving this land of beauty. In a few hours I find myself at home again and the festival day on the island of Batavianese is now a happy memory. s. A., '29.

We are the first class to begin and end in the new building f rom seventh year on. During our five years here, we have tried to serve B. H. S. with our whole heart, soul and body. llle didn't do much in our seventh and eighth years, we were saving our genius for real high school. As Freshmen, we selected, after much hub-hub , green and white for class colors. Our motto is Ad Astra Per Aspera' l. lVe supported the Halloween parade so strongly in our Sophomore year that we easily won the twenty pounds of candy and fifteen pounds of peanuts from the friendly frosh. We sold our winnings and we want- ed to do something big for our dear old B. H. S., so we bought a large blue banner with Batavia written on it in large white letters. And now in our Junior year, I think you will find quite a few of us on the basketball team tBranche, Folger, Davis, Rumsey, J udd, Newsted and Frank, 5 football team tGardner, Allan, McGettigan, Branche, Fol- ger, Judd, Chaddockj and many going out for track. lVe try to support everything that comes along. That's why there were so many juniors out for Girls' Speaking contest-and three juniors Won. A great many of us Htried out for the school play. When we came together, last September, we elected as president, Sherman Babcock, vice-president, Mary Mclioneg secretary, Helen lilc- lVain3 treasurer, J olm Secordg with Mr. Frank E. Owen as social acl- viser to work with Miss Blanche Kinnear, our faculty adviser. This is a good corps of ofiicers and they surely have carried us through a most successful year. J A - - We had our class banquet on December seventh. The committees in charge of affairs were: Decorations: Evelyn Glade tchairmanj, Katharine Telfair, Mary Russell, Vlfilliam Stroutsg menu: Helen Ware tchairmanj, Aileen Eni- mert, lVinton Putnam, program: Arthur McGettigan, lsobelle McBride, Jean Hovey, John Secord, music: Richard Davis, William Clark, Helen Miner. It was a great success and I am sure it equalled if not excelled any junior banquet, for it had pep, a good dinner, great singing, dandy pro- gramme, slick dancing, in fact, the nuts of a time. The big event of the year will be our prom which is on April fifth. The general chairman is Fred Allan and he is assisted by Helen McWain and Arthur Mei-Frettigan. ' And, finally, We bid a sad au revoir to the departing seniors. E. G. G., '30.

Mid Noon- an, acting as toastmaster called on several guests and members of the class for speeches. Dancing followed, the music being furnished by Sherm Babcock's orchestra. Much credit is due to Miss VVynn, Miss Jones and the members of the committees, for putting over such a splendid banquet. With a record such as this behind, the class should surely soar to success. So let's prepare for a good take-off, tail winds all the way, and happy landings in our Junior Year. J. E. M., '31. W u 1 A . C I A man without thought for the future must soon have SOTTOW.

At this meeting James McBride was chosen to represent us on the General Organization council. After Mid-Year exams were over, the class was called together for the purpose of electing our class officers and another adviser to work with Miss Cramer. Jack Lawson was elected Presidentg Donald Davis secretary and treasurer and Mr. Hanley, our other adviser. We chose for our class colors, blue and silver. The class motto has not been decided upon as yet. The Ereshman party was held February 21, 1929. The pupils showed their loyalty to the Freshman class by supporting the party with almost one hundred percent attendance. The program was very entertaining. Francis Chapple and .lean Carpenter danced, Ruth VVild- er and Rose Panzone gave readings, Sarah Panepinto and Bertha Em- ery sang some popular songsg last ot' all, George Garnier gave a mystify- ing but not deceiving iso he saysi exhibition of magic tricks. After this we enjoyed ourselves in dancing to the music of Char- lie Lehman's Harmony Boys. D.

H. S. At half past two, the many enthusiastic members ol' the General Organization niet. in the auditorium, 'midst posters, tags and banners bearing the names of tive candidates for ollicc, to celebrate the beginning of the fifth year of the history ot' the G. U. The annual con- vention, which was held at that time, proved to be one of the pcppicst and most interesting ones held in the history ot' our student organiza- tio11. The Iirst noininating speech was made by Frederick Stakel who named Donald BICNE'I'11Gy. Edward Burleigh was then nominated by Kenneth lVeber, followed by Olivia Schafer, who backed up the third candidate, Edwin Roth. After short seconding speeches, each of the candidates responded with interesting acceptance speeches. The vice-presidential campaign was also received with enthusiasm by the students. Frank Pappalardo presented Josephine Ruftino as a candidate while J. Robinson Ryan nominated Margaret Carr. These were followed by seconding speeches and acceptance speeches. Then followed a peppy campaign during which G. O. members wore tags bearing the names of the candidates they were backing. The day of days came! September 25 found the students ready to decide their choice for president and vice-president. After the el- ection had been held, three bells suinmoned the students to the auditor- ium, at 11 145 where Mr. lVeber was waiting to spill the news, namely that the successful otlicers were: President, Edward H. Burleigh and Vice-president, Josephine R. Ruftino. Although the students welcomed these officers with heartiness and support, We wish also, to congratulate the other candidates who showed so much school spirit and clean sport- manship during and after the campaign. XVith the support of the student body and faculty, the G. O. Council has accomplished a great deal this year. One of the most successful projects has been the Hot-Dog Stand at the Woodward Field during the Football Season. The G. O. Hots not only gained popularity for them- selves among the students, but they also earned some substantial reve- nue for our Treasury. tAsk Mr. Keegan-He'll tell you.j Then came the bicycle problem-bumping, exchanging vehicles, etc. But the council put a stop to that by placing a capable connnittee in charge of it. Publications have also received a hand from the G. O. Council this year. During the earlier part of the year, the council appropriated a sum of thirty dollars to forward a representative of the Picayune,' and one of the Batavian to the annual Publications' Conference at Ithaca. The Council has also done considerable work regarding Athletics by voting to give B's to certain players, approving of the Tennis Tournament, letters and also the Tennis cup.

Last October, the Ex Libris sponsored the play Julius Caesar, which was given by a well-known Broadway Company. This play was well attended and the Ex Libris Club was able to clear up a goodly sum. Just before the Christmas holidays, the Club was enrolled as a member of the Book League of America which entitles the Club to twen- ty-four books this year at a cost of eighteen dollars. This list includes novels, biographies, poems and travels. The following are a few of our interesting programs: Poetry and Poems given by Mr. Aderman, Legends bv Miss Johnson, The Adven- tures of YVinnie, the Poo by Miss Jones, Rhythm by Mrs. McIntosh and a one-act play by Miss Snavlin. An interesting feature of one of the meetings was a clever comedy given by members of the Club. One per- son described this sketch effectively by calling it The play in which the moon rose but the thermometer did not' '. Those who saw the play will understand what she meant. Under the faithful and enlightening guidance of our adviser, Miss Thompson, the members have enjoyed to the utmost the privileges of the Ex Libris Club. M. L.

Mclutosh. Right. then the work ot the year was begun and was carried through the whole year with great success. The iirst important event was the Initiation Service held November 8, 1928. At this time new members and an adviser, Miss Louise Olin- sted, to replace Miss Klefeker, were welcomed and initiated into the League. Mrs. Everest Judd was the speaker of the occasion and the members of the league took this opportunity to welcome Mrs. Judd as an honorary member of the G. S. L., to show our appreciation for her kind services. The work ot' the year has consisted almost wholly of rendering ser- vices to B. H. S. In the iirst place, it has been the aim ot' each member ofthe League to support all school activities such as: athletics, concerts, contests, debates and so on. IVe have done our best in helping new girls get acquainted and in selling tickets for games and concerts. V All contests, speeches and entertainments which have taken place in the auditorium have been faithfully attended by the members of the G. S. L. and not only that,-you needn't be scared of missing a seat or of not getting a program. The girls wearing the Blue and lVhite VG. S. L. banners attend to that! Then come the Hi-Y suppers. There are always six or seven girls at the Hi-Y suppers Thursday nights,,Who see to it that no one gets more than one roll and one dish of dessert. In other words, the girls have served supper to the Hi-Y club and they have been very faithful in doing it At all the basketball games, this year, a check room has been spon- sored by the G. S. L. and has been faithfully supported by -the Student Body. Also, a candy and Eskimo Pie sale has been held by the girls at the basketball games regularly. Believe me-you should have seen them sell! Besides these many small acts ot' service, the girls have been think- ing of creating a lasting memorial for the League by donating, each year, a scholarship of one hundred dollars to some worthy student who is in need of it. As this article goes to press, the certainty of this project is not yet known, but. if nothing comes up to impede the wishes of the League, the plan will be carried through. U On April 12 the League entertained the Student Body in a Three- Part4Assembly. The program was made up of a play entitled Miss Civilization , an Indian Scene, accompanied by an Indian Song and War Dance, and a sketch carrying out the Service Ideal. The success of this assembly was due for the most part to our Advisers, Mrs. Mc- Intosh and Miss Olmsted. - tflontinuerl on page 1483 Q6 N 1 gag, Xi?

ROBINsON RYAN R-EYIEXV or SCHOOL YEAR Last Year, with a membership of thirty, the Boys' Glee Club made quite an impressive record. by taking part in two concerts and the radio broadcasting. This year, the club organized and got off to an early start with nearly all last year's members back. This membership was aug- mented to iifty by a wealth of newcomers. The boys practiced diligent- ly in preparation for the Christmas Concert, and, under Mr. Owen 's capable direction, gave a never-to-be-forgotten performance. During the year, the Club has also sung for several assemblies and will contribute its share in the radio concert to be given in the spring. At the time of this writing, the boys are making splendid progress on the new numbers for the Spring Concert. These numbers are diffi- cult, but we are enjoying them even more than last term's pieces. They are representative types with swinging melodies, always enjoyed by a Boys' Glee Club. R Rehearsals are held Wednesday nights and the sixth period on Monday. Regular and prompt attendance is essential and those not complying with these requirements have been dropped without cere- mony. The accomplishments of this year's club may overshadow those of last year's but the school will probably never forget that great song, John Peel . TVithout doubt, this song has gone down in the history of the school. ' In the two years that Mr. Owen has been here, music in Batavia High School has taken great strides forward. The Boys' Glee Club has held up its end of the program very well. Natural ability is not so es- sential as hard and conscientious practice, in fact many who entered last year with quite ordinary voices, have developed into real singers. Much credit is due Mr. Owen for his untiring work in getting the club to its present state of effectiveness. Our officers are : Director, Frank E. Owen, President, Edwin Roth, Vice-president, William Stroutsg Secretary, Robinson Ryan. Edwin Roth's graduation in January moved Bill Strouts into the presidency and Art. Ryan was elected Vice-president. ' R. MacF., '30. I -1, 'iff' A Honour' Society OFFICERS President .......,.,......,,,,4....,.,,...,..,A,....,.,........,.,...,..,...,,.....,....

I R. GFS This winter, there has been the revival of a club which was started in the old brick building under the sponsorship of Mrs. Douglass. This club was revived this winter and has become a very pleasant organiza- tion. The Rural Girls' Club, shortened to R, GTS , have had as their objective mutual companionship and sociability. About forty girls be- long and the average attendance is thirty. There are no dues and few officers. Grace Simmons is the secretary, and Mrs. Frances Pratt Douglass and Miss Iva J. Hand, advisers. The meetings are held every NVednesday noon in Room 215. After lunch, we adjourn to the music room where the girls dance, play games or sing. Special parties have been enjoyed, especially our Valentine party which included ice cream, cocoa, cakes and cookies. G.

The success of that or- ganization depends upon well balanced parts and trained voices. Mr. Owen is greeted every year with the problem of building up an organi- zation to better the previous one. The Boys' Octette, this year, was more determined than ever to surpass the fine performances of last year's group. The numbers sel- ected and sung in their various appearances were even more difficult to learn and more effective than those sung during the previous year. H On the Sea by Dudley Buck and Invictus by Bruno Huhn are the two favorites of the Octette. . fC'ontinued on page 1491 ff? ,...-, N -, . v, A Fl 1 .'

The girls felt, too, as if they were in competition. They hope, however, to become as pop- ular as the boys in the future. The Multiple Trio showed the pos- sibilities of such a unit particularly in Lift Thine Eyes from the Mendelssohn oratorio.

Sometimes, when things go wrong, we wonder, What's the use? but it is a wonderful feeling to realize that we are really helping in the good work, and we come smiling through. llarinony is one of the most de- lightful sensations one can experience, and we therefore conclude that our attempts along this line shall not go by unrecognized. It was interesting to note how the Girls' Chorus developed step by step, from a group of many poor, and all untrained voices, by a slow blending of voices and cultivation of tone, to the formation of a chorus, singing with precision, balance, attack andshading. How do you like our dainty costumes? They certainly make the chorus look much more attractive, tno harm meantl and less amateurish. We have accomplished a lot this year-and feel that the Spring Concert will far excell the highly praised Christmas Concert. In addition we have an attractive group of numbers, thanks to Mr. Owen's excellent taste and judgment. The girls have been struggling with that great musical dragon,--Tone. YVe cannot truthfully say that we have conquered himg but, by keeping our mouths vertical instead of horizon- tal, We have made a good compromise with him.

There has been keen competition between the boys and girls, but, when the Chorus gets its big number Sanctus Cone of the most in- spired and beautiful of all sacred songs, by Gounodj, down to what Mr. Owen admits is perfection tthough I'm afraid he never will admit thatj, the boys will sit up and take notice. We wish to thank Mr. Owen for the unfailing interest and faith he has had in us from the start. We know that without his constant lead- ership the concerts, the broadcasts and all the musical enjoyment given to Batavia High School would not have materialized. t Here's to another year as thoroughly enjoyable and worthwhile as the last one has proved to be.

XI l'!fL4J X' 'ral f 'A The Uiriclliiesitirci At the beginning of the year, the orchestra. had several advantages and disadvantages over last year 's organization. It was already fairly well organized and had the new instruments purchased last year. How- ever, the violin section was materially weakened by the loss of B-ill Southworth, last year's concert-master, Diana Dipson and Claire Eb- erhart. As a result, the violinists have had to work harder this year, because they have had no leader. Instead of picking one person as concert-master, Mr. Owen has changed the first violins about, at various times, giving each a chance to lead. In the Christmas Concert, the orchestra opened with the War March from Athalia . Many different numbers were played, among them Lustspiel Overture by Keler Bela and Valse des Fleurs by Tschaikowsky. The Lustspiel Overture and Hungarian Dance No. 5 by Brahms require expert directing, and the strict attention of each player, because of the sudden changes in time and volume. tt The Inter- mezzo from L'Arlesienne Suite by Bizet is a number of great tonal and melodic beauty. All were very favorably received by a large audience. 'During the second half, the orchestra has been working on the H Eg- mont Overture by L. V. Beethoven. This is the .contest number for high school orchestras, this year, and it is difficult but effective. ' In selecting the music, Mr. Owen has also advanced into the realm of modern composers by using In a Monastery Garden and Valse Nan- ette by Friml, which are fine numbers and very popular with the play- ers. They will also be popular with our audiences, and, since the or- chestra appears at so many school functions, it is a good thing to have a varied repertoire. . In order to insure a musical future in Batavia schools, Mr. Owen is spending some time each week in the grades interesting the younger people in different orchestral instruments and teaching violin classes. Also, he trains new recruits in Junior High, so that the movement is well established in Batavia. In' this Way, foundations are being laid for future development. 4 Those of us who have been in the orchestra four years and are now leaving, are glad to see the progress made in the past two years and the promise for the future. We envy those who are to be in the orchestra next year. T. A.

The Senior Plug Time has turned its wheel around again to April 2.5 and 26, the nights of the school play. This event had a hard reputation to live up to, but under the guid- ance of our faithful coach, Miss Virginia B. Snavlin, it proved a great success, financially and otherwise.

E v elyn Mooney And the plot-could he ever forget it? It started out by George McFarland's making a bet that he could break a law and get away with it-for a year. The bet was made and his friends promised to come, if he were caught and explain the whole thing, so he would be freed. He goes for eleven months under cover, and then a woman gets him . She is Dolly Kanman, daughter of the sheriff of a small county of Colorado. Her father had gone into the city and, as Dolly has teas- ed him so to let her stay alone in the hut, he does so. Oh! now the ac- tion enters. George McFarland enters the hut in search of food. Dol- ly recognizes him as a criminal. She has a hard time to keep covered for he proves to be a quick and witty person. Just as she has him nice- ly covered and the action begins to fade away-in walks the villian, Simp . Then there is no peace for both Dolly and Kanman realized that Sirnp is out for blood and they must be on their guard. Of course, Cupid enters and does his little act quite well. Finally Dolly has both her prisoners brought to the county jail. To make any story good there must be another woman, and, as this play is quite good, there are two: Violet the villainess, who gives Dolly heart qualms, and Martha, Dolly's aunt whom Dolly is continually shocking. McFarland wires to his friends that he is caught and asks them to come to free him. His Wire is returned and his friends reported lost at sea. McEarland wants to drop out of the picture entirely and is in the seventh heaven of despair when his friends appear. They have sent the telegram as a joke. Then it has the usual happy ending for he is freed. Just before the curtain falls, he asks Dolly to be his jailer for life. Donald McNerney was manager of the play and he was assisted by Margaret Carr. E. G., '30. 108 H, Ei Ein? ,. L. V V lkazy.. A - '--ww . ' -5 if ii I .

E nwixnn Bnnnnrcn The Hi-Y has now been in existence for five years. Each year, it has become more efficient and popular. The purpose ol' the club is to create, Hlallltalll and extend throughout the school and the community high standards of Christian character. For the first time we have carried out serious inductions this year. These indnctions impressed upon the minds of thc new members the high ideals of our club. Following the serious inductions, we initiated the new members with a great deal of spirit. There are two sides to the activities of the club, the social aspect and service. iVe have held two very successful dances so far this year and plans are on the way for more. These dances were made possible thru the courtesy of Mr. iVeber who allowed ns to use the Hgym' ', gratis. The Hi-Y assembly program' was given on March 15. The first part of the program consisted of a setting which represented the usual Hi-Y supper. Vile were just finishing the last course of ice cream- and had for our special guests, 'Mr. Weber and Mr. Rankin. Following the speeches for this occasion, we were entertained by some skits put on by the members of the club. We judge that this assembly was well re- ceived by everyone. As a new feature of our club activity, we entertained the girls of the Service League who have so faithfully served us. This was a real pleasure to our club for it is to these girls that we owe a real debt, as Well as to our mothers. At the time of the older boys' conference, held in this city, the Hi-Y boys took charge of conducting them to the places where they were stay- ing. We also contributed money to the milk fund of the high school. The Hi-Y has become a nation-wide organization, and our club has done 'its best to carry on. We are attempting to start clubs in surrounding towns to do our part. A constitution was drawn up by a committee which has given us a firm foundation for our club in the future. We owe a great deal to the Service League for serving the club suppers, every Thursday night, and Wish to thank them very much. We hereby thank Mr. Rankin for his help- in advising and helping our club along, and the co-operation the Y gives us in carrying Out 0111' projects. A.

After the naming of the following committee chairmen to carry on the work of the club, we at once set out to accomplish our purpose: to create. maintain and extend throughout the school and com- munity High Standards of Christian Character. The committee chair- men, and their respective committees are: Entertainment, Harry Page, Service, Edwin Davyg Social, Edison Lee, ltlembership, George Gouin- lockg Supper. Neil Duffy, Religious lVork Committee, Richard Dewey. B guards and chains were issued to each old member and are now issued to all members according to the recommendation of the Hi-Y Congress. The following speakers imparted to us knowledge that was very inspirational and helpful: M r. Randall, Lieut. Dan. W. Tomlinson, Miss Jones, Mr. Huff, Mr. Blockinger, Mr. Francis Steele and Dr. S. R. Dhalwani of Bombay, India. Ytle are very grateful to all of them. Our social activities have been few and far 'between since our pro- gram has been full of service activities. XV:-3 had a masquerade party on October 29 which was well attended. The costumes were very at- tractiveg and, on the whole, the affair was very successful. A theatre party and dance was our next affair, this being held on Dec. 27. This also was well attended. A stag theatre party was held on March 7 at Shea's Buffalo Theatre. This was also well attended,-the entire club going by Blue Bus and having a light lunch in Buffalo. Our annual banquet and ball was held in May. Of course it seemed, to us, a com- plete success. ' A list of the activities put on and sponsored by the club follows. Amovie benefit was enjoyed, netting the treasury 359660. This gave us some ready cash to work with. Success for this was due to the capable chairmanship of Harry Page. The entire club worked very hard and cooperated splendidly. Next came the 1-ilootball Banquet which was put on for the B. H. S. Football team. At this banquet remarks were given by Mr. Wells, Mr. Weber, and Mr. Winters and Mr. Pierce. The main speaker was Mr. Lawrence Judd of the coaching staff of the University of Rochester. All these messages helped to make the affair a success. Edwin Davy gets the credit for this most acceptable banquet, he being the chairman. Next we had a Father and Son Banquet at which time the Rev. Alfred Brittain was our honored speaker. At this time twenty- two new members were inducted into the club. The Induction Cere- mony was put on by the officers of the club.

KEEGAN This year, Mr. Keegan conceived the idea of forming a Radio Club. He spoke to Mr. Weber about itg and, after Mr. YVeber had backed his idea by announcing in Assembly that a Radio Club was to be formed, a wild rush for admittance to the club started. However, the club was re- stricted to Senior High School students only. But as soon as some would-be members become Senior High students, they will be admitted. To join this club, one must have a keen interest in radio, he must be willing to work for the good of others. He must do his part in the club. Although only twenty members are allowed at present, we intend to increase this quota when it seems wise. This club is run in a business- like manner and has been sponsored by the faculty for the purpose of promoting friendship, fellowship and the knowledge of radio in Batavia High School. On March fourth, the club erected a radio in the auditorium for the purpose of hearing the Inaugural address of President Hoover.

There were a few sparks left and they carrie to life on March fourteenth, so we are now burning with the ambition to finish the girls' rest room that is to be in memory of Miss XVard. VVith Miss XValdorf and Miss Saund- ers as our advisers and our newly elected president, Esther Miller, we surely can make a great success of this room. It is expected to be com- pleted soon and will be very attractive when finished. There will be pillows, lamps, block print curtains, a wall hanging and a painted lounge and chairs for its decorations. The girls of Gainsborough are all very willing to workg so if we can be of any assistance, call on us to help you. As a matter of fact, a great deal of the art work produced in the past Picayunes has been done by members of the art club as well as some of the cuts appearing in this Annual. New members were not voted into the club this year because of our lateness in getting organized. After Miss VVard's room is finished, we expect to finish the leather tooling started last year. The articles to be tooled consist of belts, book marks change purses and various things. All the unfinished work is cleared off. Next year we can start earlier in the year with some new objectives in mind. Be certain that you will hear more about us and see more of our Work then. D. P., '30, .

A Dramatics Club has been introduced into thc extra-curricular activities of our school. It has survived the rough seas of coming into being and is progressing rapidly under the supervi- sion of Miss Wheeler, director, and Miss Jones, assistant director. ' A Dramatics Club is an organization whose interests lie in the study, management and presentation of plays. There are few clubs with such a wide scope of real interest for there is nothing so fascinating to most people as watching or producing' a play. Such enthusiasm for our club was shown that we found it necessary to limit the number of members by admitting only those who have tal- ent along special lines. The members are chosen by means of try-outs from the Freshmen and Sophomore classes. We have discovered, in our midst, students talented not only for acting but for the designing of stage settings, costumes and the mech- anics of play production. This is one of the aims of the club, to discover individual talent and to cultivate it. However, the chief aim is to create interest and appreciation of drama in the school and community. A club with aims like these surely ought to be a success. VVe want it to rise to such a degree of usefulness that we shall be indispensible to the activities of our school. Although we are only a few weeks old, we have assisted several organizations with play productions both in and outside of school. This shows that our Dramatics club has a chance to prove itself an asset to B. H. S., a club that our high school will be glad to have. J. S., '31.

On Sep- tenlber 29, we opened the new Woodward Field with a 31-0 victory over Medina. Teamwork was a decisive factor in this game. On October 6, we went to Fredonia, and returned home with a hard earned 13-0 vic- tory. The thirteenth was our lucky day and we took an 18-6 victory over East High of Buffalo by scoring two touchdowns in the last three minutes of play. Tuttle featured with his all-around playing. The team again traveled to the grape belt, to Dunkirk on October 20. The maroon-clad team of that city, smarting under four consecu- tive defeats, handed us a neat trimming to the tune of 26-6. The agres- siveness which the Blue and lVhite had shown in the previous games, was not shown here. The Blue and White again went into the victory column on October 27, with a rather easy 31-6 victory over Depew. On November 3, the team visited Lockport, but failed again in an attempt to find much opposition. The boys romped home with a 31-0 win. Lack- awanna, a new team on our schedule, visited us the following week, No- vember 10, and mathematically proved to be the weakest team the Blue and VVhite met. At the end of the fourth quarter, the score read B. I-I. S. -33, L. H. S.-0. At last, on November 17, opposition was found, but proved to be too strong for the Blue and VVhite. Hornell took away a 7-6 win. It was the most interesting game of the year and incidentally was our first loss 0n'Woodward Field. Gardner, Roth and Pappalardo shone brilliantly on the line for Batavia. On November 24, came the climax of the season-the Batavia-Le- Roy game. LeRoy, after an undefeated season, was out for a victory- but it was our turn.

Pappalardo thlgizj The basketball season oi' 1928-29, was not so successful as was ex- pected. Serious unavoidable accidents at the height of the season, to UJl111l1IlQH Suozzi and Ed Burleigh handicapped the Blue and IVhite greatly in the R. P. I. Cup race. Eleven victories as compared with eight losses, show well for the hard-fighting Blue and White squad. In the R. P. I. race, Batavia finished fourth. On December 12, the season was opened with South Byron furnish- ing the opposition. Coach Pierce tried out many combinations to find the best working quintet. The Hnal score read Batavia 29, S. Byron 14. On December 14, the Blue and White faced Akron. Unexpected op- position was encountered, but the Batavians managed to come out on the long end of a 32-23 score. The third straight victory in as many starts, was scored at Attica's expense on Dec. 21. Not much opposition was encountered and the Blue and IVhite easily won, 36-14. December 22, found our string of victories shattered. East High CRochesterj with Ray Shutrum in the stellar role, took a hard-earned 40--25 victory home. On December 28, the Blue and VVhite resumed their winning Ways, with a 42-20 victory over the Alumni. Such stars as VVickens, Me- Curdy, Luther and Morehouse, were unable to check the Blue and VVhite offense. . ' On January 11, the R. P. I. league was opened. The Blue and White managed to get started on the right track with a 34-23 victory over Lockport. The return game with Attica was played Jan. 15g and, after a close but uninteresting game, the Batavians had an 18-17 victory. At Tonawanda on Jan. 18,we suffered two losses, the loss of the game 23-57 and the loss of our star forward, Jimmie Suozzi. Jimmie suffered a broken collar-bone. His loss was a severe blow to the team. Ed Burleigh, star guard, severely wrenched his back in this game and was unable to play for two weeks. The following week the 'league- leading team, Niagara Falls, invaded our court. Minus the services of Suozzi, and Burleigh the Blue and White fought gallantly but were easy prey for the Red and White and fell to the tune of 33-19. A February saw the Blue and White again break into the winning column, this time at N. Tonawanda's expense. A dynamic offense and a stubborn defense brought us a 34-27 victory. The following night, ' tContinued on page 1513 , I -Q fi Tennis Early last Fall, tennis was introduced to Batavia High School un- der Miss Konscik's sponsorship. The sport gained immediate and vast popularity among all the students. It was announced that there was to be a tennis tournament. Twenty-four boys signed up. These were paired up, and the first round was begun. The losers were eliminated and the winners played winners. The final round found Bailey Collister and Albert Masse duelling it out. Collister, after little difficulty, emerged the winner. To the vio- tor belong the spoils -and so Bailey received a bronze medal for his victory. To the last eight who remained in the tournament, minor B 's were awarded. This octet was composed of: B. Collister A. Masse C. Buckholtz F. Masse H. Hatten H. Seekins C. Lehman K. Weber These tournaments will be held annually and it is expected that the list of entrants will be nearly doubled in the next tournament, because of the lncreased interest in this sport. A.

This year, in the finals, the championship at h between a freshman Eleanor Spittal and a senior, Anna Simmons, m c , was a hard-fought and interesting one. Again, as last year, the tourna- ment was won by a senior, who was awarded the gold tennis medal.

R oBINsoN RYAN R-Evisw OF SCHOOL SYEAR Last Year, with a ineinbersliip Ot' thirty, the Boys' tileo Club made quite an impressive record. by taking part in two concerts and the radio broadcasting. This year. the club organized and got off to an early start with nearly all last year's members back. This membership was aug- mented to fifty by a wealth of newcomers. The boys practiced diligente ly in preparation for the Christmas Concert, and, under Mr. Owen 's capable direction, gave a never-to-be-forgotten performance. During the year. the Club has also sung for several assemblies and will contribute its share in the radio concert to be given in the spring. At the time of this writing, the boys are making splendid progress on the new numbers for the Spring Concert. These numbers are ditti- cult, but we are enjoying them even more than last term's pieces. They are representative types with swinging melodies, always enjoyed by a Boys' Glee Club. Rehearsals are held Wlednesday nights and the sixth period on Monday. Regular and prompt attendance is essential and those not complying with these requirements have been dropped without cere- mony. The accomplishments of this year's club may overshadow those of last year's but the school will probably never forget that greatlsong, John Peel . Vllithout doubt, this song has gone down in the history of the school. In the two years that Mr. Owen has been here, music in Batavia High School has taken great strides forward. The Boys' Glee Club has held up its end of the program very well. Natural ability is 11ot so es- sential as hard and conscientious practice 5 in fact many who entered last year with quite ordinary voices, have developed into real singerss Much credit is due Mr. Owen for his untiring work in getting the club to its present state of effectiveness. Our officers are: Director, Frank E. Gwen, President, Edwin Rothg Vice-president, William Strouts, Secretary, Robinson Ryan. Edwin Roth's graduation in January moved Bill Strouts into the presidency and Art. Ryan was elected Vice-president. T' R.

Gfs This winter, there has been the revival of a club which was started in the old brick building under the sponsorship of Mrs. Douglass. This club was revived this winter and has become a very pleasant organiza- tion. The Rural Girls' Club, shortened to R, G. 'S , have had as their objective mutual companionship and sociability. About forty girls be- long and the average attendance is thirty. There are no dues and few officers. Grace Sirnnions is the secretary, and Mrs. Frances Pratt Douglass and Miss Iva J. Hand, advisers. The meetings are held every lVednesday noon in Room 215. After lunch, we adjourn to the music room where the girls dance, play games or sing. Special parties have been enjoyed, especially our Valentine party which included ice cream, cocoa, cakes and cookies. G. S., Sec. M T , g: I' g ll ll E I l t X? I I 1. V ls ,Lrg ,img -.cv ' Bo S?

The success of that or- ganization depends upon well balanced parts and trained voices. Mr. Owen is greeted every year with the problem of building up an organi- zation to better the previous one. The Boys' Octette, this year, was more determined than ever to surpass the fine performances of last year's group. The numbers sel- ected and sung in their various appearances were even more difficult to learn and more effective than those sung during the previous year. On the Sea by Dudley Buck and t'Invictus by Bruno Huhn are the two favorites of the Octette. fffontinued on page 1491 V 55.4, 5, ,-. lflli1e:1CGiirlls9 Multiple Trio n A few weeks before the Christmas Concert, Mr. Owen selected nine girls from the large Girls' Chorus to comprise a 'A Girls' Multiple Trio' '. The nine girls are: FIRST SOPRANO SECOND SOPRANO ALTO Evelyn Albright Mildred Herbine lsobelle McBride Loretta Corbin Dorothy Spitzmesser Margaret Gentner Sarah Panepinto Christine Carr Grace Landon It is possible to attain a higher class of work, and more perfect shading with a smaller group than it is with a larger one. A small or- ' a ements ganization may be taken to represent the school on various eng g with very little trouble, while it requires weeks of planning to take a large organization on an engagement. The Multiple Trio made its first appearance at the Christmas Concert. The girls were very nervous, due to the fact that they follow h ar old Boys' Octet who did so very well. The girls felt, too, ed t e ye - as if they were in competition. They hope, however, to become as pop ' ' H' ' ' h 'ed the os- ular as the boys in the future. The Multiple Trio s ou p 'b'l't' of such a unit particularly in Lift Thine Eyes from the si 1 1 ies Mendelssohn oratorio. It might also be added that the uniform dress of the girls received many favorable comments. Let us not forget that had it not been for Mr. Owen, such an organi- zation could not have been even thought of. His efforts are greatly ap- preciated. . M. A. G., '29, 101 Q, iff H ,fl , -9 i , ?

Sometimes, when things go wrong, we wonder, What's the use? but it is a wonderful feeling to realize that we are really helping in the good work, and we come sini-ling through. llarinony is one of the most de- lightful sensations one can experience, and we therefore conclude that our attempts along this line shall not go by unrecognized. It was interesting to note how the Girls' Chorus developed step by step, from a group of many poor, and all untrained voices, by a slow blending of voices and cultivation of tone, to the formation of a chorus, singing with precision, balance, attack and shading. How do you like our dainty costiunes? They certainly make the chorus look much more attractive, tno harm ineantj and less amateurish. We have accomplished a lot this year-and feel tha.t the Spring Concert will far excell the highly praised Christmas Concert. In addition we have an attractive group of numbers, tha.nks to Mr. Cwen's excellent taste and judgment. The girls have been struggling with that great musical dragon,-Tone. We cannot truthfully say that we have conquered himg but., by keeping our mouths vertical instead of horizon- tal, We have made a good compromise with him.

We know that without his constant lead- ership the concerts, the broadcasts and all the musical engoyment given to Batavia High School would not have materialized. Here's to another year as thoroughly enjoyable and worthwhile as the last one has proved to be. - I.

It was al ready fairly well organized and had the new instruments purchased last year. How- ever, the violin section was materially weakened by the loss ol' Bill Southworth, last year's concert-master, Diana Dipson and Claire Eb- erhart. As a result. the violinists have had to work harder this year, because they have had no leader. Instead ol' picking one person as concert-master, Mr. Owen has changed the lirst violins about, at various times, giving each a chance to lead. In the Christmas Concert, the orchestra opened with the War March from drhtllflllllu. Many ditferent numbers were played, among them Lustspiel Overtureu by Keler Bela and 'tValsc des Fleurs by Tschaikowsky. The Lust.spicl Overture and 'tliiungarian Dance No. 5 by Brahms require expert directing, and thc strict attention of each player, because of the sudden changes in time and volume. The Inter- mezzo from L'Arlesienne Suite by Bizet is a number of great tonal and melodic beauty. All were very favorably received by a large audience. During the second half, the orchestra has been working on the Eg- mont Overture by L. V. Beethoven. This is the contest number for high school orchestras, this year, and it is difficult but effective. In selecting the music, Mr. Owen has also advanced into the realm of modern composers by using In a Monastery Garden and Valse Nan- ette by Friml, which are fine numbers and very popular with the play- ers. They will also be popular with our audiencesg and, since the or- chestra appears at so many school functions, it is a good thing to have a varied repertoire. In order to insure a musical future in Batavia schools, Mr. Owen is spending some time each week in the grades interesting the younger people in different orchestral instruments and teaching violin classes. Also he trains new recruits in Junior High, so that the movement is welliestablished in Batavia. In this way, foundations are being laid for future development. Those of us who have been in the orchestra four years and are now leaving, are glad to see the progress made in the past two years and the promise for the future. We envy those who are to be in the orchestra next year. T. A.

It started out by George lXlcFarland's making a bet that he could break a law and get away with it-for a year. The bet was made and his friends promised to come, if he were caught and explain the whole thing, so he would be freed. He goes for eleven months under cover, and then a woman gets him . She is Dolly Kanman, daughter of the sheriff of a small county of Colorado. Her father had gone into the city and, as Dolly has teas- ed him so to let her stay alone in the hut, he does so. Oh! now the ac- tion enters. George McFarland enters the hut in search of food. Dol- ly recognizes him as a criminal. She has a hard time to keep covered for he proves to be a quick and Witty person. J ust as she has him nice- ly covered and the action begins to fade away-in walks the villian, Si1np . Then there is no peace for both Dolly and Kanman realized that Siinp is out for blood and they must be on their guard. Of course, Cupid enters and does his little act quite well. Finally Dolly has both her prisoners brought to the county jail. To make any story good there must be another wornang and, as this play is quite good, there are two: Violet the villainess, who gives Dolly heart qualms, and Martha, Dolly's aunt whom Dolly is continually shocking. McFarland wires to his friends that he is caught and asks them to come to free him. His Wire is returned and his friends reported lost at sea. Mclllarland wants to drop out of the picture entirely and is in the seventh heaven of despair when his friends appear. They have sent the telegram as a joke. Then it has the usual happy ending for he is freed. J t b f r the curtain falls he asks Dolly to be his jailer for life. us e o e Donald McNerney was fnanager of the play and he was assisted by Margaret Carr. E' G., BO.

The purpose ol' the club is to create, maintain and extend throughout the school and the connnunitv high standards of Christian character. ' For the first time we have carried out serious inductions this year. These inductions impressed upon the minds of the new members the high ideals of our club. Following the serious inductions, we initiated the new members with a great deal of spirit. ' There are two sides to the activities of the club, the social aspect and service. WVe have held two very successful dances so far this year and plans are on the wav for more. These dances were made possible thru the courtesy of Mr. YYeber who allowed us to use the gymn, gratis. The Hi-Y assembly program was given on March 15. The first part of the program consisted of a setting which represented the usual Hi-Y supper. We were just finishing the last course of ice cream- and had for our special guests, Mr. Weliei' and Mr. Rankin. Following the speeches for this occasion, we were entertained by some skits put on by the members of the club. Vile judge that this assembly was well re- ceived by everyone. As a new feature of our club activity, we entertained the girls of the Service League who have so faithfully served ns.i This was a real pleasure to our club for it is to these girls that we owe a real debt, as well as to our mothers. At the time of the older boys' conference, held in this city, the Hi-Y boys took charge of conducting them to the places where they were stay- ing. We also contributed money to the milk fund of the high school. The Hi-Y has become a nation-wide organization, and our club has done its best to carry on. VVe are attempting to start clubs in surrounding towns to do our part. 4 A constitution was drawn up by a committee which has given us a firm foundation for our club in the future. We owe a great deal to the Service League for serving the club suppers every Thursday night, and wish to thank them very much. We h b thank Mr. Rankin for his help- in advising and helping our club ere y along, and the co-operation the Y gives us 1n carrying out our projects.

Charles liehmang Vice-president., Edison Lccg Treasurer, Raymond Luntg Secretary, NVilliam Ytlickensg Adviser, Ed- win G. Nixon. After thc naming of the following committee chairmen to carry on the work of the club, we at once set out to accomplish our purpose: to create. maintain and extend throughout the school and com- munity High Standards ot' Christian Character. The committee chair- men, and their respective committees are: Entertainment, Harry Page, Service, Edwin Davyg Social, Edison Lecg Membership, George Gouin- lockg Supper. Neil Duffyg Religious NVork Committee, Richard Dewey. B guards and chains were issued to each old member and are now issued to all members according to the recommendation of the Hi-Y Congress. The following speakers imparted to us knowledge that was very inspirational and helpful: Mr. Randall, Lieut. Dan. W. Tomlinson, Miss Jones, Mr. Huff. Mr. Blockinger, Mr. Francis Steele and Dr. S. R. Dhalwani of Bombay, India. XVe are very grateful to all of them. Our social activities have been few and far between since our pro- gram has been full of service activities. VVe had a masquerade party on October 29 which was well attended. The costumes were very at- tractive, and, on the whole, the affair was very successful. A theatre party and dance was our next affair, this being held on Dec. 27. This also was well attended. A stag theatre party was held on March 7 at Shea 's Buffalo Theatre. This was also well attended.-the entire club going by Blue Bus and having a light lunch in Buffalo. Our annual banquet and ball was held in May. Of course it seemed, to us, a com- plete success. A list of the activities put on and sponsored by the club follows. A movie benefit was enjoyed, netting the treasury 359650. This gave us some ready cash to work with. Success for this was due to the capable chairmanship of Harry Page. The entire club worked very hard and cooperated splendidly. Next came the I'lootbal1 Banquet which was put on for the B. H. S. Football team. At this banquet remarks were given by Mr. Wells, Mr. Weber, and Mr. Winters and Mr. Pierce. The main speaker was Mr. Lawrence Judd of the coaching staE of the University of Rochester. All these messages helped to make the affair a success. Edwin Davv gets the credit for this most acceptable banquet, he being thechairmain. Next we had a Father and Son Banquetatlwhich time the Rev. Alfred Brittain was our honored speaker. At this time twenty- two new members were inducted into the club. The Induction Cere- mony was put on by the officers of the club.

He spoke to Mr. Weber about ity and, after Mr. lVeber had backed his idea by announcing in Assembly that a Radio Club was to be formed, a wild rush for admittance to the club started. However, the club was re- stricted to Senior High School students only. But as soon as some would-be members become Senior High students, they will be admitted. To join this club, one must have a keen interest in radiog he must be willing to work for the good of others. He must do his part in the club. Although only twenty members are allowed at present, we intend to increase this quota when it seems wise. This club is run in a business- like manner and has been sponsored by the faculty for the purpose of promoting friendship, fellowship and the knowledge of radio in Batavia High School. On March fourth, the club erected a radio in the auditorium for the purpose of hearing the Inaugural address of President Hoover. Three loud speakers were used to allow all who wished to stay to hear the ad- dress.

The popular tea dances held on Tuesday afternoons, every other week, are also the work of the Council. WVith the help of a committee chosen from the student body, the afternoon dances went over big . As this article goes to press, the G. O. Council has still many impor- tant projects in mind, the success of which cannot as yet be printed. As a Whole, the work of the Council has met with approval, thanks to the hearty cooperation of both students and faculty, the senior mem- bers joining hand in hand, wish next year's council a successful and en- joyable year.

He informed the two girls that they had been elected as members of the National Honor Society. Imagine their astonishment and delight! He continued by reminding them that Edward Burleigh, Margaret Carr, Diana Dipson and Josephine Ruftlno had been elected in June, 1928. He said that Marian lngraham, Ruth Lawson, lVard Manchester, Donald McNerney, Peter Peca and Arthur Ryan had just been chosen and all Cincluding those elected in Junej would be initiated in assembly on some not far distant Friday morning. Added to this list in February were Marion Feary, Doris Passage and Grant Gardner. Certainly we must make mention of our P. G. member, Carlos Weiss, who has helped us out more than once this year. The National Honor Society stands for the highest type of charac- ter, leadership, scholarship and service. Every member has done his utmost to uphold the ideals of this National Organization. Under the capable and whole-hearted guidance of Dr. Myrta E. Hunn, the Society has enjoyed the fu-ll privileges that membership in this Organization offers. M. L. I., '29.

Reception was very fine g but, as the time for school drew near, there was such a racket in Assembly Hall that no one really heard the address. On many of the previous meetings, speeches have been made up by different club members. The club has enjoyed these talks. We hope they will continue in the future. These talks were of great technical value and were a bit deep for a new radio enthusiast. In the near future, the club is planning to erect a suitable antenna for a radio which will be used permanently in the school. We also in- tend to have a complete short wave sending-receiving station construc- ed in the building. This will do much to promote enthusiasm in radio and bring into Batavia High School, the value and reward of radio experiments. C.

Judd caught a pass, thrown by Kornowski, after it had bounded off two LeRoyan's hands, and stepped over the goal line for the score. LeRoy should be complimented upon the alrnlost impenetrable defense they presented when their goal was threatene Thus the season closed in a blaze of glory. The team had a season which it can rightfully be proud of, scoring 175 points to their oppon- ents 45. With the record goes the loss of ten lettermen who, We regret to say, will not return next fall.

A., a Fun Banquet at which time Dr. Dhalwani showed us how the different head dresses are applied and worn by Hindus in India. This banquet was a t'howling success because of the 11oise maker and horn, as well as hats, supplied each person. On February 12, the club en- tertained the entire faculty ot' the school at a regular dinner meeting. On March 14, the Jr. Hi-Y invited the Sr. Hi-Y to a joint meeting. At this time Mr. WV111. H. Burger gave a talk on I-Ii-Y Ideals and the Junior club again put on their induction ceremony, for thc other new members of the club. On March 26, a Mother and Son Banquet was held. For this occa- sion a mock trial was put on by the members of the club. Most of the entire club and their mothers were in attendance. The supper was pre- pared by the club members under the leadership of Neil Duffy. If you don 't think it was good, ask the mothers. Edwin Davy with the he-lp of his committee on service got together a complete college and university catalogue. It will be well worth the time of all the students of the high school to spend a few moments in looking over this most Worthy collection. The club will go to visit the Kenmore Jr. Hi-Y Club on April 3, they being the guests of this brotherly club. A program will be put on by the Kenmore Club that will be very interesting as well as enjoyable to the entire club. Cn Dec. 21 to 24, the Club sent two delegates to the Hi-Y Congress held on the Cornell campus in Ithaca. Charles Lehman and Edison Lee, President and Vice-president respectively, were the two delegates. They returned afire with the right kind of Hi-Y spirit and have certain- ly helped the club with their suggestive thoughts and plans received. The club sponsored a first name campaign which consisted of each member 's addressing the other by his nrst name instead of his last. A lot of good was ascertained from this worthwhile and necessary cam- paign. u The club will put on a play, The Mystery of the Third Gab-le . It is a pleasing as Well as mystifying play of three acts and the club hopes to have the school auditorium to stage it in. Much credit is due to the live girls who are helping the club put this on. They are Jane Miner, Il?3rowip Thomas, Jeanette Strouts, Evelyn Albright and Marion Mac- ona . Credit is due each member of the Junior Hi-Y Club for the whole- hearted support he has given the club, this year. Success of the pro- Jects, if they have been successful, could not have been attained if it had not been for the line club cooperation. Much credit is due the officers. They have worked faithfully and untiringly to niake the year a success. The Club also wishes to thank any who have also helped to make this year one of the best in Junior Hi-Y history, but especially the Girls' Service League. . 3 '?g3maea.g?i1.:f ifY?,l,.g- M ' ' . , Basketball tkhliiliiiuell from pngxv 1251 the strong Monroe High of Rochester successfully invaded our court and rode home on the long end of a 3-L-23 score. Feb. S, the Blue and WVhite played their best basketball of the season. The strong Kenmore team was able to beat us by the slender margin ol' one point. It was by far the most interesting game of the season and the spectators enjoyed it thoroughly. Feb. 11 found us at Lockport. By means of a last minute rally, Lockport fell, 18-16. Jimmie', Suozzi played for the first time since his injury. On Feb. 15, Tonawanda visited us They were lead- ing 26-20 in the last quarter, but, when an argument arose, and a Tona- wunda. player was ordered from the floor, the entire Tonawanda team left and the game was forfeited to Batavia 2-0. The following week the Blue and White were decisively beaten at the Ealls by a 30-13 count. March 1, and another loss. The team was slow in getting started and fell to N. Tonawanda 38-33. One week later We played at Kenmore. The Kenmorites left no doubt in the spectators' minds as to the better team. The Blue and White of Batavia was overwhelmed by the Blue and TVhite of Kenmore 33-9. 1Ve closed the season with two clean cut victories over LeRoy. The game at LeRoy was uninteresting as the 55-14 score might suggest. In the last game, it was a vastly improved team that the Batavians met, and the LeRoyans let their presence be lmown before going down before our colors, 28-16. - Folger, Branche and Souzzi, all letter men, will be back next year. These, plus the fine material on the second team, indicate that a well- balanced team can be expected to take the floor, next year. A.

The first session will begin July lst, 1929. The course is continuous and consists of twelve quarters of eleven weeks each with Vacation periods of two weeks between the quarters. The curriculum consists of a basic and specialized course of in- struction. The basic course considers dentistry, as a branch of medi- cine and in conjunction with the faculty of the School of Medicine, courses are offered in the fundamental subjects with credit toward the medical degree. The future contact of the medical and dental practi- tioners is secured throughvthis common basic training. It is impera- tive in the conservation of human life that these two great professions of health service should have a common ground for the interchange of ideas. The object of the basic instruction is to gain a higher and broader interpretation of the relation which dentistry bears toward the cause and treatment of systematic disease. The course of dental specialization is to teach the student to be- come a creative, independent practitioner. It consists of fundamental instruction in technical procedures which constantly alternate with in- firmary schedules. Students are allowed to progress as fast as they may demonstrate their ability. They are given every opportunity for clinical experience in independent practice by the various assignments at the hospital wards and clinics. The economic feature of this course is appealing to the average student who wishes to enter dental practice at the earliest opportunity, as it reduces the dental course of six years to one of live years Ctwo years of pre-professional and three years of medico-dental studyj. Un- paralleled opportunities are offered at the hospitals to determine through study and research the interdependence of medicine and den- tistry in cooperative diagnosis. Professional study requires a type of education commensurate with the responsibilities of professional practice. In view of the recent ad- vance in both the theoretical and clinical work, valuable time may be saved by utilizing the long summer vacation period. More constant contact with the professional curriculum results inevitably in a greater breadth of knowledge and a higher accomplishment in technical skill. . ,Dentistry offers unusual opportunities to those who wish to special- ize in surgery, orthodontia, technical and scientific fields, and in general health education. The classes are limited in numbers. The next C01I9Ee term opens July lst, 1929.
