ARD:-g1p5':It5YKrT 17 BOYS' BASKETBALL The team of 1926-1927 has had a very competitive and interesting season. We had some very good material, and the boys worked hard to make this year a successful one. We all feel that if the basketball season had lasted a little while longer we would have had a very good chance of obtaining tirst place in the League, for when the season ended. our team was playing at its best. ,Xs it was. we were able to take third place in the League. The League games resulted as follows: Team .S'rore Ttltllll .blt'I?I't' f,lt!vV4'll of Irvington 26 Xrdsley l 'J Ardsley Dobbs Ferry 33 .Xrdsley 23 Dobbs Ferry Creenburgh 117 Xrdsley 23 Clreenburgh Hastings 2-1 Xrdsley 18 .-Xrdsley Irvington 26 Xrdsley 20 Irvington Dobbs Ferry 14 Xrdsley 17 qlvrdsley Greenburgh 17 Xrdsley .34 .Nrdsley Hastings .23 Xrdsley 26 llastings I' R .XC li Last year our track team made a good record on the cinders considering the fact that we had little practice. Lib Oakes brought in a tirst place in the base- ball throw, and Ed llruce tied for tirst place in the seventyelive yard dash for the junior class. Several other members received rewards of second and third places. The Juniors funder one hundred and fifteen ponndsl, both boys and girls, showed up welll and we feel that in another year they will be bringing in their share of points for Ardsley. lYe are greatly handicapped by having no place for running or jumping, but we hope by another year to have a space in the park.

18 THE DEDICATION The new -addition was started about July, 1925. In October, a collection.of future memories was taken from each class to be put into the cornerstone, which ws laid with simple ceremony on October 22, at 3 P. M. The building was ready for occupancy at the beginning of the new school term, September, 1926, but was not officially Finished until later in the Fall. With an interesting and impressive program, this new addition was dedicated N oyember 11, 1926. There were over six hundred people at the dedication, which, we believe, is more than have ever been in the school at one time before. The program was as follows: Music-Ardsley High School Orchestra. Welcome Song-First Grade Group. Invocation-Rev. J. T. Van Burkalow. The Star Spangled Banner-Sung by Audience. Greetings-Mrs. Mary T. Goehren, President, Board of Education. Your New School-Mr, Charles H. Cheney, Dist. Superintendent of Schools. Solo: The Wind's in the South -Miss Marion Munson, Director of Music, Ardsley. Dedication Address-Hon. VVilliam F. Bleakley, judge of the County Court. Benediction-Rev. P. F. Lombardo. Inspection of new building. Dancing in the old auditorium---music by Uelmorians. Ushering by the Senior Class. The spell-bound audience listened to the addresses and music. Miss Munson held the rapt attention of all with her singing, and graciously tendered as an en- core. the song, I Love You Truly. Inspection of the building followed this. Some of the visitors then left. but the others went into the old auditorium and enjoyed a social hour of dancing to the music of the Bellemorian Orchestra. The pupils appreciate the forethought of the people of the village in giving us such a splendid building and will strive to be worthy of this great opportunity.
