Thimmes EDITORIAL EFFUSION. Most of us are sooner or latter confrunted with the serious question of Hhow can I win a happy home for self and pos- terity. if any. Therefore, seeing as how this is my last year of decorating the frunt steps of the Ashland High School Institu- tion, I deems it is 1ny duty to impart some advise to the oncoming classes in regards to their future struggles with worldly monsters. Knowing as I. do the countless pitfalls in witch a hlind-folded st-udent might walk over and well realizing the oft repeated state- ment that the hirdens of the grate tomorrow will ultimately fall upon the shoulders of the frivilous minds of the present high school generation I considers that anything of value witch I am capahle to give them will not only he appreshated but likewise will be henee fishial, to-wit: If the student is unahel to marry into a wealthy and prosper' ous famly and therefore desires to meddle with law I should pre- scrihe that he should get some excelant practice in attempting to pursuade Miss Manny to let him or her as the case lnayhe, to get out of the geomentry axam when the said student happensto have a series of grades witch resembles the sinking of the hattleship of Maine. lI4Il11'tIlQ1'11101'C, if there is any of 1ny fortunate readers witch have heretofore purfornied a victory over this eluzive i11- structor I would not only advise their trying for adniisshun to the har hut would he the lst nian to dig down in my jeans for finanshel ade after they are admitted. Secondly, if the student wishes to dabhle in politicks, I would suggest that he or she would watch closely the oncoming presi dential campane and he governed accordingly. I would further :Udvise a cemester or more of Ifnited States History under our esteamed Miss Norton, witch has not only tought me a grate many things regarding politicks hut witch is also very heautifull. Thirdly, I want to say a few words to the sedimental student witch is contemplating to be poets etc. like the Great Stone Face or something equaly immune to worldly strives. The enitial re- quirement for a poetic career is a pull from someone higher up so therefore if you haven 't got no loose teeth and nothing else in your head is loose, I would chearfully intercept you to some other form of life recreation. Fourthly, if you are planing to he a hanker or a deeler in stock of either variety or a highwayman or any other thing witch han- dles large quantities of E 'Pluribus Ifnams I would unhesitatingly recommend that you do what all you can to elect yourself to Ath- letick Manager as the writer is well acquainted with the count- less temptations witch accompany this posishion. Fifthly, it has come unto my personel attenshun that some of you students are aspiring to the industry of sheap herding. As 10 I have had no experlenee in this art, I needs only reffer you to Sfupt. Briscoe or Mr. Forsythe, witch persons has been at the heads of varyus high sehools over the country long enough to assure of their grate knoledge of suhjeets of these species. Lastly and finely, I wishes to express rny veaus in regards to those few that prefers working for a lively hood. To persons of these elasses l would suggest many opportunitys for hard work for the right sort of felloes, narnely, to wit: Eleetrieity, house- wifing, shiphuilding, laten and eow sapping. There is also sonre Hopenings' in arkatexture hut 1nost of thenr prove to lze in the rong places the same as windows in Alaska. lYishing you nrany happy returns for the ahove eouneel, l am as always, ready to saerifiee my valuahle sueeor for the welfare of luunanety in all its forrns. --A.

We are leaving times of pleasure, Times of happiness and youth, Not for a life of leisure, lint for a life of truth. 'Felix' short years We've lreen together, Sharing joys and petty strifes, Mixkl with ups and clowns, reverses, lint still 'tis a part of life. In spite of all misfortunes, We have eonqnererl at the last, And, in all our ineniories, linger Thoughts of the unf'mn'gotten past. The class has shmvn the hest that's in it: Most have Worked with mighty zeal Anil prepared to meet the tnninlt, lYith its Woe, or With its Weal. May We live up to the standard May we do whate'er We ean To raise the status of our nation And to help our felloxvman. 7 XYith parting Words We ask von, Make not material wealth ywur aim, lint, With all the zeal that's in von.

The other afternoon I was going down the main street of our city and a queer looking individual stopped me, saying that he understood that I was a memlier of the class of '20 and that he would like to have a few words with me. I was in no particular rush, so I consent-ed to listen to what he had to say, even though I did not lielieve he had anything of interest to tell me. He led n1e to his dwelling place and soon I found that he was a seer, and he made it known to me that many of the class seemed to be in- terested in the future and that he would tell me the future of each member of the class. I told the old man that I would be very glad to hear what he had to say, and sat down. He hesitated for so long that I thought he had forgotten that I was there. He said that I must be very quiet and sat looking into space as though he had spied some- thing most inspiring. Then he began: HI see Miss Adamson as a leader in the anti-cigarette society and she is now touring the country giving lectures on this evil habit and its effects on the youth of our country. i--He sat for awhile as though think- ing and then said: Twenty years hence you will see Lena Prof vost in the city of Rome, studying art. Although Miss Provost is very famous for her paintings, she has great ambitions to make Schuer- is doing her reputation more widely known. I also see Billing man as a missionary in the island of Borneo, where he wonderful work converting the inhabitants of this island. Eu- gene Bryant seems to be next, and I see l1i1n at Harvard, I be- lieve it is, coaching their foot-ball team. He stopped in his wanderings for awhile and then began: 'tNow I see a court-room arranged for trial. Judge Brady is try- ing the case of Miss Obera Morris for holding 'WVomen's Rights lectures on the plaza without authority. Miss Morris is represented by Miss Esther Kleinhammer who has studied law and has become famous. The defendant has been placed under arrest by McMillan who is on the police force of this city. He continued with his prophecy: HI now see Merle IValters as ed- itor of the Ashland Monthly Tidings with Marie Porter as his assistant and Ira Neville as chief reporter. Also I see Domina Provost who is dressed in white cap and apron and--I believe-- yes, he's frying hamburgers and hot dogs at To1ny's old stand. he seems to have worked up a great trade and still is patronizerfl by some of Tony's old customers, Clyde Young and Earl Beck who, when not eating hamburgers, are respectively sexton of the cemetery and draft clerk at the Citizen's Bank, being mostly oc- cupied in opening and closing the windows. I see a street with many beautiful homes on it, two of the 1nost beautiful are owned by two women who were girls of the 31 SENIOR CLASS WILL. Ile, the Senior class of Ashland High School, do make, pub- lish, and declare this to be our last VVill and Testament. since we are about to depart from this mental strain of life. Vlfe, being sound in mind and body, and not acting' under menace, fraud, or influence of any person, do issnc and swear to the following: First: To the oncoming Seniors we will and bequeath the two honorary rows of seats in the assembly, previously occupied by ourselves while we were accumulating our vast amount ol' knowledge.

I seem to see some one who looks like Donald Dickerson. who used to be a member of the class of '2O. He is touring thc world giving lectures on the evolution of man as it is explained by Darwin. In the town where Mr. Dickerson is at this time I see a very beautiful little tea room which is owned by Mastiers and Klum who were both of this class. One of the girls working there is Miss Mary Campbell who is a classmate of Miss Klum and Miss Mastiersf' His mind wandered from here to the city of London: HI see in the city of London a beautiful opera building which is owned by Boyd Homewood, and the opera now on is Roy Clary's latest light opera entitled tThe Mystery of Tin Can Alley? Some of the girls of the class are represented in this. The leading lady in the play is Theda Anita Baralee, alias Miss Carrie May Briggs. Some of the girls in the chorus were also memliers of the class, they are: Miss Ena Davis, Miss Violet IVood, Miss Eleanor Allen. Miss Bessie IValker, and Miss Ruth Martin. Elmer Biegel is also accompanying the troop and is acting as stage hand. There is also in the town of London a discontented individual who is waiting table in a small restaurant down near the water' front. She wandered to this part of the world to study and train her voice but it seemed to have developed a peculiar discordance with the piano which apparently was all out of tune when she started to sing, and she gave up in disgust. This person is no other than Miss Beatrice Gunter. I also see Iiewis Beeson and Melvin Kaegi. They are oper' ating an aeroplane route between Tolo and Hilt and doing a pay- ing business. HI now see Miss Donna Bachtell who is a candidate for elec- tion in the Senate on the Socialist Ticket. Miss Lucy Catman is a leading reformist and is giving Miss Bachtell a hard run for the election. Mr. Porter, also of the class of '20 and then known as 'Ike,' is representing the 'Iivets' in this same election and hopes to regain the liberties of true Americans for us as soon as he takes the office. I believe that I now see Anne Ellis who taught school in the district of Climax for a couple of years and is now found as head nurse of the Granite City Hospital, and Ruth Morris. also of this class. is one who chose the life of a teacher and will continue the profession and enjoy the days of dear old spinster-hood. The seer stopped for awhile and then as though he saw some- thing very amusing began: t'The Misses Ivern Keller tIll?lI'- gery Sweetl, Thelma Hughes CIiottie Gengerl, Maxine Pracht fllorothea Dimplesj, Irma De Carlo fMaria D. Maufausutl are now starring in the Mack Sennet comedies, and are, according to 32 is 0- 0 the films, the four girls fighting over Benjamin Miller Clilelix Awfulitchyj who is also in these comedies. t'Leo Finneran will be found traveling from place to place giving lectures on the hopes, aims, ambitions, demands, and struggles of the Irish in Ireland. HM1: Farman Swiggart and Mr. Arthur Peters entered the mechanical world soon after leaving school and produced a most successful invention which was a new crook in the hump hairpin, which they guarantee to keep the hair up in the strongest wind. They are now n1illiona.ires and have settled down to enjoy quiet home life. I now see the Misses Maud York, Vestal Goetze, and Mar- jory Fifield as maids of honor to the Princess Sophia Guggen- slocker of lVindeburg. I also see in the city of New York the Misses Theta Slingerland and Pauline Clift as owners of the most exclusive millinery store, who are now living in luxury. I.ucile Holdridge, Bertha Thinnnes and Mary Moore en- tered the diplomatic service soon after leaving school and are now in the embassy in China. 'ttilyde Gunter is the last of the class and I see l1i1n in Alaska as tl1e sole agent for the Palm Beach Tailor Company and it is said that he has worked up a very good trade among the I'lSlil1110S.H 'With this the man came out of the trance and told me that this was the prophecy of our class and we would find these to he true in the years between 19335-40. He said he could not give the exact date but was fairly sure of the forecast for our lives. I thanked him for his time and trouble and expressed my hopes that his predictions would come true, as none was a life to be dreaded. .. 33 Q J.. SNAPSHUTS SOCIETY The Girls' Glee Club and the Philothespian Literary Society, combined, gave a masked Hallowe'en party, on the evening of Oct. 29. 1919, at Dorothy Tinker's home. Upon arriving each guest was taken through the usual and some unusual rites of the season. Several games were played and then the guests unmasked, after having made vain attempts to keep their identity a secret. Those wishing to have their fortunes told had to follow a string by a long circuitous route until they came to the hiding place of a very formidable looking gypsy. Songs were sung and many danced, and as only girls were present, many humorous and entertaining stunts were given by Yama Yamas, witches and others. Appro- priate and abundant refreshments, consisting of delicious sweet cider, doughnuts, pumpkin pie, and salad were served in cafeteria style. Two raiding parties made several vain attempts to capture the Heats, only succeeding in adding to the excitement of the evening. Near midnight the guests departed, each declaring her unusual enjoyment of the evening. Un Nov. 8, 1919, after one of the biggest football victories that we have ever had, our boys and the Klamath liuskies, washed and groomed, filed into the High School Cafeteria dining room and took their places, which were indicated by individual cards. The room was decorated in crimson and white, with every table dis- playing a large vase of flowers. The menu consisted of roasted turkey, creamed potatoes, dressing, cranberry jelly, apple-nut salad, buns, pumpkin-pie with whipped cream, and coffee. .lt was prepared and served by the High School girls, assisted by Miss Neal. Mr. Briscoe, Mr. Forsythe, and the two coaches were also present and helped do justice to the dinner, which was declared excellent by all. The dinner was given to the Klamath team in return for the one which they gave for our boys on their trip to the Falls. 1Vhen all had finished, several speeches were given, Clyde Young acting as CllZliI'1l13.I1. Although the Klamath fellows were defeated, they felt fairly well repaid by the dinner and ex- pressed wishes that the good spirit between the two schools might l e kept up. On the evening of Nov. 26, 1919, at the home of Mary Moore. the Philothespian Literary Society gave a t'Kid party. The nzemlzers came forth very t'kiddishly clad. Curls, half-socks, knee dresses and aprons, and dolls were in evidence. Three new n emlers were initiated into full nieinbership, much to the amuse- ment and delight of the other 11191lll'9l S.' C'hildren's games, as: London Bridge, and Farmer in the l3ell,,' were played. An 02 .Ml i HAH Day Sucker hunt was started and the best hunters were supplied with refreshment to last several Days Other games were played and then at about 10 o'clock, refreshments, consist- ing of hot chocolate, cookies, candy, and sandwiches were served. Very soon after, the guests departed, as it was long past the bed time of kiddies On Saturday evening, Dec. 13th, 1919, twenty-one pigskin fighters, and two coaches took their places around a fancy deco- rated tiable in the Parish House, where they found one of the swell- est feeds ever set before a football team. The dinner was pre- pared and served by tl1e mot-hers of the players. Neeley and Biegel left all in the dark when it came to devour- ing chicken, but just watch Dom, Sharm and Beeson eat mashed potatoes and chicken gravy. Look at H Burt VVinne and Ross Small, they certainly like cscolloped corn. Selby and Carlon proved superior in getting rid of hot rolls and butter. A taste for fancy salads, stuffed olives and celery sure goes to Kaegi and Buchanan. You'd Be Surprisedl' to see how the affections of Coach Moore, Jones and McMillan fall for apple pie dressed with whipped cream. All drank tea and coffee. Following this a few short speeches were made and Wlaltef' Jones elected Captain for '29 To perfect things, the 'tfair ones were brought in and the rest of the evening spent in snappy en- tertaimnent. On the evening of Dec. 1, 1919, the Juniors gave a box social and program in the High School gymnasium. The program con- sisted of readings, recitations, parodies, iinitations, a burlesque on a movie studio in China, a school paper containing many per- sonals, and several musical numbers. All told, it was a very well worked up program and lasted for half an hour. lmmediately after the program, the audience was told to go to the balcony, where, for the small sum of 10 cents, they were allowed to fish behind a screen and bring forth upon their pole a wonderful sur- prise package. These packages were 'usually jokes and helped to put the students in a gay humor. After all had tired of angling, the booths, of which there were two, candy and cider, were opened and were the center of interest, especially the candy booth at which chances were sold on a large box of fudge. Then the boxes were auctioned off by two gayly dressed clowns, who, by their comical attire and witty remarks kept the crowd in an uproar. Successful and swift sales were made, and the boxes were soon sold without effort. VVhen the contents had disappeared through the endeavors of hungry boys the party dispersed, all avowing that the Juniors were delightful entertainers. On Saturday evening, Dec. 20, 1919, the Sophomores gave a reception for the September Freshmen in the High School gym- 36 nasium. Wlien the rooks arrived, timid and pale as death, they were escorted down stairs. After shaking hands With death, be-- ing introduced to Mr. Skeleton, and having a taste of the best Wine available, they Were turned over to the ushers, Who found seats for them for the evening's entertainment. The Sophs then spent an enjoyable half hour listening to the impromptu program of the Freshies. After this, games were played, Which were enjoyed by all. The rooks were then led upstairs Where light refreshments were served to the Sophs and still lighter to the Freshies, their refreshments consisting of milk and all day suckers, the Sophs fearing that anything heavier would not set Well with the infants at that time of night. The Sophs, however, began to feel so sorry for the rooks that they divided with them and then all were satis- fied. The Freshies were then sent home feeling like full-fledged members of the High School. The Senior class on Thursday evening, Feb. 5, 1920, gave a Pie Social in the High School gymnasium, the proceeds from the auction of the pies to go to 'ZThe Rogue. The evening was especially enjoyable to all those present as the program Was ex' ceptionally good, representing each class. The Freshmen gave a Mock VVedding, the Sophomores, Hawiian songs with ukeleles by tl1e Harrel girls, tl1e Juniors, Alohea, sung in a duet With guitar accompaniment, and the Hornpipe dance by Dorothy Tinker, the Senior girls, a Fashion Show, and the Senior boys a very humorous stunt. A booth, very artistically decorated in the class colors, pink and green, Was provided with candy and punch, of which all partook. The booth was tended by two Yama Yama girls dressed i11 pink and green. After the program, Clyde Young auctioned off tl1e pies and with much merriment they were dis- posed of and everyone departed in high spirits, and not the least bit pie hungry. On Saturday evening, March 27, 1920, the Sophomores gave the January Freshmen a reception in the High School gymnasium. After having their names taken and having been presented yvith all day suckers, the shivering Freshies were put into a room by themselves. Then, after Waiting what seemed hours, for the Worst to come, one at a time they were taken down into the dark gyunf nasium, and led up on the stage. There they met the skeleton, grotestquely arrayed, and sitting in a chair, with a girl standing beside it. Then two boys took the Freshie by the hand, While the girl read something which the Freshie must repeat. YYhile this was going on the Freshies were supposed to receive a shock, but evident-ly they were too green for it to have any effect. After each was taken through this process, the Freshies were called out on the stage for a program. A court scene, the 'tThree Bears, and a cracker race between a boy and a girl were given by the Frosh, 37 thus ending their initiations. Everybody sang songs and then games were played. Then each one got a partner and fornierl a grand march up to the dining room, Where tables were laid. Ice cream and cake were served hy the Sophs much to the delight of the Frosh. Shortly after 10 o'clock, the party broke up and th-3 Freshies Were sent home to hed. The Juniors have heen,and still are hard at Work on the plans for entertaining the Seniors. It is very prohahle that either a re- ception or a picnic will he given. They are also making elaltorate preparations for a Junior Hi Jinx. The Juniors are very anxious that this year's entertainment he original and a pronounced suc- cess. P. C. '20 fx X . w V.

S111,11.1,. 11 SOPHOMORE CLAbS. w,.. 'Ti W Q in R F ss! Y, R Y The class of 1922 entered High School as first-rate Rooks, with a reputation Worthy of being put in history and not enough back- bone to Walk up the aisle straight. But listen all, that Was done when they were Hooks, now, they are Sophoinores with much more ambition and considerably more imagination. In fact they stretched their imagination so far that they actually thought they sayv a teacher smile, and if their eyes didn 't deceive them they sayv a high and mighty Senior bend. The Sophomores, however, must be given credit for their initiative ability. They initiated the Freshmen in the name of the Father, but mainly in the name of the Skeleton Ghost, as they made the timid Freshmen shake hands with a skeleton which was charged with electricity. It was afterwards stated that he was quite a lively corpse. Please don't consider them heartless because, you see, they are just having their spite out. Turn about is fair play and although the Sophoniores might seein cruel they are sticking to their inot-to which is: 'tBe kind to all animals, especially Freshmen, and also consider the nobility of the higher class of life, which is Seniors. The last part of this motto is compulsory. Taking these facts into consideration and regarding the fact that the Sophomores furnished seven good girls to fill up empty places in the Philothespian Society, We judge that the class learning, and becoming a lightei green. Oh! l forgot to tell about their increased capacity of reasoning. They are absorbing so inuch knowledge that they actually figured out that elevators and winding stairs were not in common use in the schools of Ashland. They no longer believe all they hear, and consequently have learned hoyv to discover things for themselves. -elCl5N,X BLANK. -lf? L,-XSS, F FRESHMA X , .

In the days of Prohibition, there once lived in a place called the Ashland High School a group of strange, wonderful, fascinat- ing beings, known as the Basketball Boys. These were very daz- zling personages and the Female Element of the Ashland High was mightily awed in their presence. They were the Presiding Geniuses of the A. H. S. and during the day strode haughtily through tl1e vast dim corridors of the Seat of Learning, deigning ever so often, about once a semester, to look down from their lofty plane upon the miserable worms beneath them, composed of thc Female Element and the Minor Males, and bestow 'upon them a meager, condescending smile, or could it be called a smile? Having done this they once more, feel- ing that their duty was done and a disagreeable task off their noble, toilworn hands, resumed their pacings, ponderings, and councils with others of the Faultless Few. But, let a F. F. CFeeble Femalej of a M. M. fMinor Malej be so bold as to dare to smile at them, they promptly squelched the im- pudent, drastic attempt-s by looking at the insect with disdain in their eyes and a sneer coldly arching their lips, which wilted completely the F. F. or M. M. At night, at stated intervals, the B. B. B.'s fBaskethal'l Boysj, haughtily attired as the lilies of the Field, would stride forth as did Julius Caesar, to conquer neighboring foe or foreign enemy. After swift and furious combat they would oust the Hostile Ones and amid thundering applause and deafening roar of acclaim. would glide to their quarters with a proud and noble smile on their physiognomy, or on the part of their physiognomy which lies directly beneath the peculiar ornament which they had adopted, known as Soup Strainers. At other intervals they would appear at affairs known as Nut Club Jazz Dances, where they favored a few of the F. F.'s with a turn around the ballroom, and then, not to infringe upon their dig- nity, would advance to the entrance and glide out into the night. leaving an awed and gasping assemblage blinking behind them. This state of affairs continued during the entire years of their supremacy until at last there came a day known as Graduation Day, on which they received Sheepskins or Diplomas, which in- struments they firmly grasped and sallied forth to fight the world and conquer there as they had previously done. After their demise, crepe was hung on the doors of the Seat of Learning and mourning was carried on for seven days and seven nights, and never since has the Seat of Learning been glori- fied by their equals. -H.

The Philothespian Society was founded the first of the school year, September, 1919, by Miss Parr, head of the English depart- ment, and twenty-one students who were interested in developing the powers of self-expression. The following officers were elected: Maxine Pracht, president, Marie Porter, vice president, Carrie May Briggs, secretary and treasurer, Violet XV ood, editor, Paul- ine Clift, sergeant-at-arms. The purpose of the society is to find and cultivate all dramatic, literary, executive and social talents of the members. The pro- gram committee assigns the members to parts in the weekly pro- grams for which they are best fitted. VVeekly application and de- livery enables the members to rely 'upon their individual efforts for entertainments. The programs consist of music, debates, plays, impersonations, readings and other amusements furnished by the members. A play, t'Our Aunt From Califomian was given by the society January 9, 1920. It was produced with great vivacity by the actors and was heartily appreciated by the audience. The mem- bers plan to present, 'tThe Comedy of Pyramus and Thisbe from A Midsummer Night's Dream at an early date. Social entertainments are held frequently at the homes of the members in which all participate. Membership is limited to thirty. The following are members: Theta Slingerland, Pauline Clift, Edna Blair, Eleanor Allen, Ena Davis, Bessie XValker, Marie Por- ter, Violet Wood, Vestal Goetze, Maxine Pracht, Carrie May Briggs, Beatrice Gunter, June Mcliladeyn, Esther Cliurch, Etha Abbott, Alice Slingerland, Ruth Eske, Bertha Thimmes, Dorothy Tinker, Claudine Cox, Mildren tluly, Marjorie Edson, Laura XVen- ner, Gertrude Viertz, Gwynne Gammon and Nellie Hake.

H. s.-- Senior Play- Let's Get Married. A party of young people spending the week-end at the home of one of their number are suddenly seized with an epidemic of mat- riinoniuni-tremens and wildly extemporize three elopements be- hind the back of their hostess. The complications that surround and finally defeat these projects are most amusing. It is funny and full of the spontaneity of youth. Instead of the usual climax with lovers in arms, and ''they-lived-happily-ever-after'' ending the curtain falls for the last time on two young men firmly resolved never to marry. One can see from the brief review given that Tiet's Get Mar- ried is a snappy farce, and it promises to be a HS0I'6El1I1H from beginning to end. The title alone awakens interest in the minds of all young people and some older. Cast of Charactersr. Mrs. lVilliam Stewart ................. Pauline Clift Mary .................. ....

Because of the Flu Ash- land had no team last year and therefore a large amount of 'tjazzw Was manifest at the beginning of the season. A new coach and the return of five letter men caused the Student Body to have expec- tations of a successful season. They were not disappointed as the Red and TVhite gathered four of the five battles staged. The team piled up seventy-four markers to their opponents thirty-two. George Moore, an experienced coach from the lflast, took charge of athletics at Ashland High and aft-er a feyv weeks of unceasing labor by both him and his players had a machine which could do more than yvear football togs to please the feminine sex. The first scrimmage Was but a crude exhibit of what later games would be and, yvhile it was a wild entanglement of arms and legs, it contained those players who later composed a smooth run- ning football line-up. The second team, coached by Mr. Forsythe, was a game bunch of players for they had to face the smashing attacks of the first string men. Every night they were knocked for goals and every night they were on hand for more medicine. The course of treatment they received this year will put Ashland High on the map again next fall and Will mean curtains for Medford. HV Young, captain of the '17 team, was re-elected. HV is right there with the goods all the time and is recognized through- out Southern Oregon as being the most successful captain around these parts. For three years he has specialized on the center po- sition and he is rewarded by being picked by all authorities as center on the All Southern Oregon Eleven. As well as playing his oyvn position to perfection he can be depended on to put confidence into his men when the game is going Wrong as yvell as When the lied 211111 White is Winning. XVe,ll miss you next year, V, Merle YYalters was elected manager. He dreiv up the sched- ule of games and handled the finances. lt is needless to say that Squats made the financial side come out as successfully as the team's record on the gridiron. GTS The first game was played at Klamath Falls, Oct. 18th. The Ashland team made the trip over the Green Springs road in auto- mobiles and were met in Klamath Falls by a delegation of players from the High School of that city. The Klamath men showed their hospitality and invited the Lithia Boys to a grand little chicken entertainment, which was enjoyed by the Ashland team--also Coach Moore! That night the team put up at the 'tVVhite Pelican and between the squeaks of Line Neeley's overloaded bed, the snores of Clarke, and the cries of Ross Small, might be heard thc nervous mutterings of some of the newer players. Those that fin- ally choked the demon of restlessness and were inclined toward slumber were occasionally interrupted by the munching of choco- late drops and pepperments fro1n the apartment of Coach Moore. Early the nert morning, the team went through a fast signal prac- tice on the Alkali cow pasture upon which the struggle of the af- ternoon was to be staged. At 2 p. m. the two teams ran out onto the field and were met with enthusiasm by the crowds that came out to see their local huskies devour the VVestern lnvaders alive. The game started with a rush, Montgomery, the Klamath Chief, kicking off to the Ashland quarterback, Deak Bryant, who returned the oval fifteen yards. After three downs for small gains, the Ashlanders booted the ball far into the territory of the defenders. A few minutes later a Klamath fumble resulted in VVinne making the first touch- down for Ashland. By line smashes and forward passes, Ashland secured two more touchdowns, one by Provost and another by Wlinne. The final score of 19 to 0 would seem easy money for Ash- land but the truth is it was a fight from start to finish. That night tl1e Klamath sports gave another chicken entertainment! The team, as a whole, was in no condition to thoroughly enjoy the eX- citement but it was hinted that Coach Moore and Referee Mowat derived a big kick out of it-not to mention Neeley's smiling features. A week later, the Red and White took a business excursion to Grants Pass for the purpose of settling up the 1917 debt but they were doomed to disappointment. The game was 26 to O in favor of the heavy Josephine County vets. Bill McMillan, Ashland's crack punter and tackle, was injured during the first six minutes of play and his loss was felt throughout the entire game. He was out until the Thanksgiving game, when by sheer determination and grit he stepped in and helped put the Red and Black on the shelf. The first half was hotly contested, both teams seeming to be evenly matched. lt was a battle between the weight and experi- ence of the Grants Pass team andthe speed of the Ashland men. lVhile the Ashland eleven was superior in forward passes and end 64 runs the condition of the field prevented the Ashland team from tearing off the gains which they otherwise would have made. As it was, Squatsl' Walters reeled off seventy yards on one excur- sion and Jones netted forty yards an a tour around the end. Ash- land, also, was very successful via the aerial route, completing seven out of nine attempts of the forward pass. This fact showed that Ashland had a pair of speedy ends in the persons of Beeson and Schuerman. The first game on the home grounds was played Nov. Sth against the Klamath Falls warriors, who came over on the war path. This was the first chance that the local fans had of seeing the boys in striped jerseys in action, and a large crowd was in at- tendance. After the smoke of battle had cleared away Ashland was the winner of a 34 to 0 contest. Deak Bryant and Dom Pro- vost trespassed upon Klamath's sacred territory when they both recorded a couple of touchdowns and Selby put the Freshman class on the map when he pushed the pigskin across the last chalk line. After the game, a big turkey feed was placed before the rival teams by the Ashland damsels. This repast will go down in the annals of High School history as an event long to be remembered, and in the words of the Klamath captain was, UA dinner that would take two weeks to 1'ecover from. The team now settled down to hard signal practice for the final wind-up of the season. Ashland determined to cop the remaining two games with Medford, thereby more than squaring themselves for the Grants Pass defeat. Comparing the scores of the Ashland and Medford games with Grants Pass, Medford would seem to have the edge over the Ashland team, but the latter was strength- ened by the experience gained in a couple of contests with Klam- ath Falls. Although the dope sheet indicated an even break lze- tween the two teams, yet Medford was radiant with confidence since such stars as t'Uhick Vance, the Browns and the Sher- woods decorated their gridiron. The first game was scheduled for Nov. 15th, when the Red and Black invaded Ashland. At 2:32:17 p. m. the referee's whistle set the two teams in action. Medford started with a bang and by a series of line bucks carried the ball well into Ashland territory At the critical moment, the lied and M'hite braced and gradually worked the oval back to the middle of the field. Early in the sec-- ond quarter Ashland cut loose with some real football, the apex of which came when lleak floated a beautiful spiral pass far out into the waiting arms of Provost, who carried it across the goal line. In the second half, by a lucky break, Vance got away for a long run towards home, which was abruptly ended when Wlinne pegged him on the four yard line. In the next four minutes of 65 play the Ashland line made themselves famous by dropping the Medford plungers in their tracks. For three consecutive times Clarke pierced their defense and threw their backs for losses. Again in the last quarter Medford uneorked some long gains until they brought the ball to Ashland 's one yard line. The next down carried the ball over for Medford's only score of the season. They made a feeble attempt at kicking goal and the game ended with a score of T to.6 in favor of Ashland. H Deak Bryant received an injury which greatly handicapped him for the remainder of the season. The final game of the season was played at Medford, Thanksgiving, before one of t-he largest crowds ever witnessing an Ashland-Medford game. McMillan was back in the game in spite of his injuries. This game was by far the hardest fought of the season. At the end of the first half the 0 to 0 score indicated a possible tie. A well assorted selection of plays executed by the Crimson and YVhite baffled Heidenreich's disciples. The Medford quarter got confused in the shadow of his own goal posts and called for a forward pass, Provost gathered in the sphere and jazzed' through an open field for the first touchdown of the game. ln the last few minutes of play Ashland, by successfully returning a long punt, carried t-he' ball to Medford's twenty-yard line, but lost the ball on downs. Medford then tried a double pass which was broken upggiving Ashland the ball with but ten yards to go. A couple of line smashes were followed by a short end run by TVinne, who carried the pigskin over as the whistle blew. This was a suitable finish for the season of 1919. Many of the members of the team had just completed their football careers under the banner of the Red and Vivhite. -H14-O! TA. H. s.--- It was a nice October evening, in September last July, the sun was shining brightly and the moon was in the sky. The flowers were singing sweetly, the birds were in full bloom, and I went into the cellar to sweep a top floor room. The time was Tuesday morn- ing at half-past W'ednesday night, l saw a house ten thousand miles away and it was out of sight. The front door projected in- ward, the front was in the back, it stood alone with two others and one was whitewashed black. The viIlain's lips were tightly sealed and he yelled with all his might, 'tKill me if you dare, but spare' my life. The hero shot him with his knife and killed him till he died.

He never allowed a play to go around him and when it came to grabbing the ball at the end of a pass Was all there. R. XYinnc, Left. 'fncklvz 185 It takes a fast man to get around YVinne, as Medford knows to their sorrow. Burt was the veteran of the football squad and his presence on several occasions meant victory for Ashland. M. xXvEllt0l'S, Hznlflsrxckz 150 t'Squats is the fastest man on the team and a hard one to stop. long, twisting runs were exciting features of exch game. XV. Jones, Capt.-Elect, I-Ialfback: 155 Walt is a fast backfield man and sure at tackling. He is heady and his experience should make him well fitted to lead next year's teiun. F. Flnrk, Guard: 155 Pinkie hails from Talent. He sure plays a wonderful brand of football for a new man and with this yeitr's experience will make a stellar per- former next season. M. Nerlcy, Guard: 1525 Fat' was the heaviest man on the team. He always opened holes for the backs and was right there Whell it came to stopping line bucks. R. Small, Gunn-dz 155 This was Ross's first year on the team and he made good all around. He filled both tackle and guard po- sitions and did not allow anyone to go through his part of the line. G. Selby, Halfbxu-k: 150 Selby made good in the backfield and with three more years ahead oi' him should be one of the best players in the Valley. H. F2lil'I0ll, Tackle: 160 Homer is a consistent, steady player who can be relied upon to do his part. He will be back next ye,1r for a. backfield job. 5 I f - N i 'I , if-I , ' Tl1e haskethall praetiee started immedi- ' ately after Lliristinas vaeation with a large I t'l1l'llfOl There were in sehool three let- ter-me ound whom to build this year's ' team. ley were: Provost, forward on 1 the 1918 team- Bryant, forward, and Me- NQN-: 7 . , Millan, center, of the 1919 team. Young QQ? WW and Sehuerman had aequired experienee 5 lim, as memhers of the squad in former years. Smallpox and influenza epideinies played havoc with the sehedule and resulted in eight games heing eaneelled. This, eoupled with the inability to arrange the annual series with Medford, re- sulted in the season lmeing unsueeessl'ul as to the numlxer of games played. The first game of the season was played against the Central Point Alumni in the loeal gym. Ashland won the game easily. although Central Point employed some rather rough taeties. The next games on the sehedule wer: with Alhany and l,ineoln. These games were eaneelled on aeeoimt ol' the entire team heing vaeei- nated, due to the smallpox epidemie. Hosehurg' then askezl to have their games with Ashland eaneelled heeause of the influenza. The Ashland team was invited to attend the State Meet, to lve staged hy M'illamette l'niversity, Mareh -lth, 5th and fith at Salem. livery effort possihle was made to arrange games with Me'll'ord hetore entering' the Meet, so as to aequire exiferienee, whieh eau only he seeured through games, and also to deeide the Soutliern Oregon ehampionship, hut these efforts were of no avail. The State Meet was staged hy Uoaeh Matthews of Willamette, under the auspiees of the Greater NVillamette Cluh. The idea of the Meet was to deeide the Tnterseholastie State Baslfetlall ehame pionship. The following teams were present at the Meet, repre- T2 senting their respective sections of the state: Astoria, Lincoln, Rainier, La Grande, Madras, Forest Grove, Albany, Tl1e Dalles, Marshfield, Salem, Medford and Ashland. At the drawing which took place Thursday noon, Mar. 4th, Coach Moore drew Medford for Ashland's first game and the sec- ond game of the tournament. The other teams lined up in the pre- liminary games as follows: Salem vs. Astoria, Lincoln vs. Rai- nier, The Dalles vs. Forest Grove, Albany vs. Madras, Marsh- field vs. LaGrande. Salem easily defeated Astoria in the first game. Ashland won from Medford in the second game, 24 to 11. The first half ended with the score being tied, T t-o T. ln the last half, Ashland hit their stride and ran the score up to 2-E, while Medford scored but 4. Tn the third game, Lincoln defeated Rainier by an overwhelming score. The Dalles was eliminat-ed by Forest Grove in the fourth game. The Madras team from Eastern Oregon lost the fifth game to Albany. La Grande won the last game of the preliminaries from Marshfield. The teams in the preliminaries were unevenly matched and, as a whole, the games were slow and uninteresting. The drawing took place immediately after the preliminaries for the semi-finals. Ashland drew Lincoln for the first game. Albany and Forest Grove were opponents in the second game and La Grande drew Salem for the last game. Lincoln won from Ashland, 36 to 18, by their close checking and machine-like team-work. lin this game, Bryant of Ashland scored 1-L points, the largest number of points scored by an indi- vidual against Lincoln at the tournament. Albany defeated For- est Grove in a closely contested game. The last game of the semi- finals was lost by La Grande to Salem. The first game of the finals was to take place Friday evening, Mar. 5th. The three teams that were left to compete in the finals were Albany, Salem and Lincoln. At the drawing, Albany and Lincoln drew the numbers that made them opponents in the first game, while Salem was fortunate and drew the blank, which al- lowed them to rest until the next day. Lincoln crushed Albany's championship hopes, 50 to ll. The Lincoln team showed better team-work in this game than any other team did at the tournament. Lincoln and Salem played the final game of the tournament, Saturday afternoon. Salem won from Lincoln, 11 to 12. lt was a close and exciting game and was not won until the final moment of play. The Salem team received two large cups. Tl1ey were donated by S Jauldinv' 8: Bros. and the Nliilson Seortinfr Goods Store of . zz l ra Salem. 73 The following All-Star Team was selected: Wriglit, Lincoln ................. Forward L.

Guard Cole, Lincoln ............ tcaptainl Guard The Meet was staged in the Salem Armory before large crowds. The tournament was a success and the many athletes left Salem with a good impression of Wlillamette. Wlhile in Salem, the Ashland team was the guests of the Sigma Tau Fraternity and were royally entertained. Two games were arranged with Medford, Mar. 12th and 13th. The first game was played in the Ashland gym. The Ashland team won 23 to 15. The game was slow and a poor exhibition of basketball. Provost was the high point man for Ashland wit-h five field baskets. The second and last game was played at the Med ford Nat the following night. Medford again lost to Ashland. The score was 36 to 13. In this game the Ashland team hit their stride and showed better form than at any time during the season, Bry- ant and Young were the stars of the game. Bryant scored 22 points. Young played a wonderful guarding game. The team lines up as follows: Bryant :md Provost. forwards, McMillan. center and captaing Schuerman and Young. szvards, Heer and Guthrie, substit'utes. Bryant, Provost. Ndlillan and Young won their letters and the entire first team graduates this spring. I OUR BASKETBALL TEADI. 74 i fx - Captain ':Jazz McMill,1n, playing the center garden on the Big 5, seemed to be a bulwark in defense and offense and played thru the se - son in splendid form. He piloted the team through a successful season in B. B. ' 'f He never owns up girls and his favorite song is 'I'ake'r Slow and Easy. Heart-Crusher Bryant w's high point man and one of the best foul flippers in the state. His speed and accuracy proved deadly to oppo- nents and by his snappy passing and guarding alw.1ys kept the ball in home territory. Yo Ho. Some Lady Man? Smoky Provost never slackens his speed and his specialties were taking the ball away from the big fellows. He was a strong guarder and all over the floor at once. 'I' cf if Shes' a new one, I haven't been out with her yet. L Night Hawk Young always tried his very best at guard. Powerful and alert, Young holds his opponent to -a minimum count and never gives in. He is very crafty in rolling the bull for two points and plays a fine game of l'KliYN'l13llllllGl'.

He is also an egg lover and will be back next year. Young was another surprise this year. He plays a steady game and will be in the first string next year. He plays the guard position and is the third man of the egg combi- nation. Track Prospects. Ashland expects to turn out another bunch of spike wearers this Spring that will make the Medford turf trotters as dizzy as they were at the last year's meet. Brower, Ashland 's young half- miler of the 1919 team, is already eager to establish a new South- ern Oregon record for the 880-yard journey and make this run as famous for Ashland as in the days of Abbott. Beeson will prob- ably be Ashland's hope in the 220-yard t-rip and should have little trouble in landing a slice of the relay honors. Clark, a new acqui- sition from Talent, will set a mark in the board jump for Medford to gaze at with tear-dimmed eyes. Jazz McMillan will take care of the high jump and weights, while 1Valters will again try his luck with the vaulting stick and in the sprints. Bryant will cleverly heave the javelin and shot and with Boss, should gather some markers in floating the discus. Gunter, Clary, Small and Selby will be on deck to do their bit as in former years. As a whole, Ashland should have a track machine that will take a fall out of Medford in spite of such stars as Lucas and Brophy of that city. --A. H. sf-- Baseball Prospects. After having been dropped for one yea1', the Xational Pastime is again to be placed on the athletic curriculum as a Major Sport. A renewed interest has been taken throughout the city and school in regard to baseball. Ashland supported a town team last year which was the first for several years. This, coupled with the base- ball spirit which prevails in school circles throughout Southern Oregon and Northern California will assure a successful season on the diamond. Although a year has elapsed since the game was played, there remain in school five letter men of the 1918 team. They are: Deal: Bryant, who guards the initial sack in a way that would do credit to a big leaguer. He wields a bat in a Babe Ruth style and is the best clean-up man in this part of state. VM Young, first string catcher is in a class by himself when it comes to looking over pos- sibilities for the receiving department. He is a consistent man with a stick and can be depended upon for a hit in the pinch. Young is steady behind the bat and pegs the ball down to the bases with the snap and accuracy of Bay Schalk. In Babe Schuer- man, Coach Moore will have a man around whom to build his outer defence. Schuerman's success in the outfield lies in his ability to judge flies and also his speed and wonderful throwing arm. He is a hitter of the slugging variety and would be an as- 77 ...J set to any ball elub. lqeo Finneran Will be Ashland's best bet on the niound. He is a port-side hurler with excellent control and exceptional ability to outguess the batter. Lefty is a first! class lead-off nian. HBil1 McMillan held down the keystone sack on the 1918 teain, and will try out again for that position. Besides these nien, there are in school sfueh Inen as Provost, Porter, Clark, Beck, High, Selby and Babe Finneran, around yivhoin to build a formidable aggregation to represent Ashland High.

T8 -L 'HJ ISVX N153 H10 T HE 'l EARL GIRLS' ATHLETICS The girls started practice soon after the beginning of school and worked diligently through the fall and winter. There was a fine turn-out, which made it possible to have three teams. They were called, HThe Red, and t'The VVhite, and t'The Blue teams. Several closely contested games were played with the Red team as final winners. Vllith Miss Reichling as coach, a strong first team was organ- ized and stood good chances of evening up an old score with Med- ford, but on account of a smallpox scare in Ashland, Medford, in her fear, cancelled the games. i Despite some discouragenients at first, the girls showed a fine spirit and supported the school with all their ability in all the ath- letic activities and at rallies and entertainments. Although they did not play any games this year, niost of the inenibers of the team will be back next year and we hope will be able to play as well as now. The first team represents the school very well, as it is niade up of Seniors, Juniors and Sophoinores. The Freshnien showed their colors as well by coming out in full force for every practice. The li11e-up is as follows: Lena Provost fcaptainb ..... ...Forward Dorothy Frulan .................. Forward Maud York ...... ...Jumping Centei Leila Carlton. .. ..... Side Center Mildred Kaegi. . . ...... Guard Dorothy Tinker .................... Guard The girls are niuch heavier than those who have represented the Crimson and lVhite for some time and with the team worlf they always played could have shown their opponents some lively games. +D. R T. C,-' i Q 1 x -I .1 B THE CINDER PATH, 1919 After the basketball had been laid on the shelf for another year tl1e athletes from Ashland High began to think about sting- ing the Medford delegation via the einder route. Such articles as the javelin, shot, vaulting pole and hurdles were unearthed fro1n their resting places and about twenty shiv- ering athletes 1nade their appearance on the oval track. Kincaid and Mchlillan could jump about as high as they fly kites in Sweden and the foriner showed good forrn in clipping the hurdles. The sprinting department was represented by Stone and Beeson while Brower reigned supreme in the long distance excur- sions. Fraser could throw tl1e javelin out of sight if tl1e weather was a little foggy and Mehlillan put all of his six feet and four inches behind his shot heaves. Ross, also, was good for some points in the weight events. The big Southern Oregon Triangular Meet was staged on the Ashland oval Nay 3rd and it proved to be a keen exhibition of Track and Field work throughout. Ashland High won the Meet by a score of 48 to 41 over the Medford spike men, while Talent gathered a total of 9 points. The score was as follows: Event.

After spending weeks of meditation and ponderings in the hope that you will land an inspiration that will dazzle everyone and-suddenly a bright one hits you square in the face that almost shocks you into insensibility, and you grab the family goose quill and write it out quick for fear of losing it. Then you laugh until the tears come because it is so funny and you are sure your name will go down in history as the Twentieth Century Vi'it, and you rush o'ut and show it to your friends, expecting them to do the Udonkey stuff. But-they read it, yawn a couple of times and say, HVVell, I think l'll run homo and get a little shuteye. So long. old top!
