4 Ex Eibria f THE FRICASSEE ‘Published by The Senior Class of Baton Rouge High School FORKWOBD IS the sincerest wish that this volume meets with the approval of the student body. In the following pages we have tried not only to record the events of the past year but also to arouse the spiiit of the school which will return to our minds in later years. [ I’agc Four J I rage Five ] FRICASSEE DEDICATION T HERE are a few public-spirired citizens in every community who find time in the busy rush of everyday life to devote their intelligence, energy, and business acumen to the administration of the affairs of the community as a whole. They bring to their chosen task insight, gained by years of experience in the business world; a practical ability to do things, won by hard training in the school of life; and a vision, which plans for the improvement of the projects in which they interest themselves. Such a man in our community is Mr. W. H. Perkins, president of the East Baton Rouge School Board. Interested in all civic activities, he has devoted himself unselfishly to the cause of education in general and to the welfare of the Baton Rouge Senior High School in particular. The magnificent edifice in which we work is a monument to his efficiency as chairman of the building committee and as president of our “School Board. In recognition, therefore of noble service, of unfailing friendship, and of highest achievement, we, the editors, respectfully dedicate the 1928 “Fricassee” to our friend and leader, Mr. W. H. Perkins. [ I’age Seven J CONTENTS - FAcn rv CLASSICS ATII LKTIC'S OR( A X IZATH) S PORC RARITY IIIMOR BL JS I ?

For this honor, he was presented by Mr. W. H. Perkins with a diamond set, gold football. The brilliant type of football that he plays and the creditable manner in which he held a defeated team together were the chief points of Granger’s success.

The jinx of a new athletic field, which has vanquished the strongest teams in the country, overpowered the squad, but never did they stop fighting. Not one game was lost by over nine points. Even the evil spirit of defeat could not stop the fighting eleven from overcoming their chief rivals from Warren Easton by a score of 12-0. The lettermen for the season were Captain George Granger, William Lobdell, Toliver Piper, Andrew Aiello, Kelvin Ncsom, Muller Hochenedel, Robert Montgomery, Brook Ewing, E. W.

Under the careful training of Coach Ed Young, Stokes has in the past two years developed into one of the greatest hurdlers of the day. lie now holds the state record in the high hurdles and won both hurdle races in the 1928 state rally. On June second at Stagg Field, Chicago, 111., in the national interscholastic meet, he was the most brilliant performer of the day. He won the high and low hurdles, breaking the national record in the former event. By this brilliant running, he enters the final Olympic tryouts at Harvard Stadium. May he have success and wear the colors of U. S. at the Olympic games in Amsterdam. : 19 2 8 'i [ Page Thirty-Five J [ Fage Thirty-Six J 1 J. E.

The Basketball team of tha Baton Rouge High School did exceedingly well during the 1928 season. Although practice began late, the squad developed rapidly into one of the best teams in the state. They defeated some of the most outstanding high school teams. This team was the first that the school has put out in quite a few years, and the season was very successful. a r Forty | I TH K ( HEERLEADEKS THE cheerleaders for the 1928 season were chosen by the student body, and its choice could not have been better. Marguerite and Harry Perkins were always on the job to arouse the spirit of the school in all games, meets, and contests. These two efficient cheerleaders were full of life and spirit at all times, and created a deep feeling for the school. For their brilliant performance they were each presented with a gold football. I Page Forty-One J FRICASSEE CLASS OF 28 Seniors! happy seniors! Smiling and gay and bright, For the time that we have longed for. Graduation is in sight. There’re suits and frocks and flowers And invitations too. We’ll have to hurry and scurry and work, For there’s many a thing to do. But then a ray of sadness Comes before our view, We’re leaving dear old High School And all our teachers too. You have taught, school of ours, And given us a place Where we may solve the problems Which confront the human race. Our faculty, we love you And remember you we will, Though other teachers we may have, None ever your place can fill. We love you dear old Baton Rouge High, And in our memory long will stand, The first and best and ever The dearest school in all the land. —Maude Hook ter.

To Coaches Young and Thornton, a new crop of athletes with suffii-cient prowess to fill the gap made by the departure of the stars we take with us. To Mr. Blalock, Juniors of dignity and poise, instead of flappers and jellies. To Mr. Miller, pupils who will be interested in the text rather than the teacher. To Miss Burris, classes as learned, as orderly, and as dignified as we, the Class of 1928. To Miss Horton, a physical training class to train for the rally. To Mrs. Kean, 78 gallons of buttermilk with our guarantee to slenderize one pound per gallon. To Miss Dunbar, a chemistry class that will ask sensible questions. To Mrs. I.eguenec, a pack of promiscuously picked 'postrophes promising perpetual perfection. To Miss Pujol, a third trip to Europe, and a safe return with a Duke or a Bull Fighter. To Miss Reed and Mrs. Liter, we bequeath the excess pounds cast off by Mrs. Kean. We leave the pupils who wear long dresses, abhor lipstick and rouge, and who are yet not tacky to Mrs. Hinder. To our new teachers, Misses Barnett, Butler, Perkins, Xesom, O’Leary and Mrs. Vega, anything they may desire to help their future pupils’ records equal ours. To Miss Knighton—a megaphone. To Miss Racot, a step-ladder to enable her to whisper secrets to Miss Alexander. To Miss Harper, our Latin “ponies” that she may ride swiftly and securely through the intricate battle fields of Caesar. To Mrs. Pegues, our ingenious ideas, our inventive schemes, our clever solution of problems in home management together with our cast-off note books and old aprons. To Mrs. Lombard, and Miss Keller, we leave the friendship of Damon and Pythias. We, the girls of ’28, do solemnly declare that the Juniors shall receive all our dresses which are three inches below our knees, and to the Junior boys, the boys of ’28 bequeath their suspenders. To the Freshmen, may their tribe increase, we leave the path we have begun in the road of experience, and hopes that they will receive from the teachers the same treatment that we did as Freshmen. To our Alma Mater, a picture of which will ever remain indelibly imprinted in our heart, we, the first class to go forth from its portals, leave the hope that its beautiful walls, desks, and grounds will always remain free from the vandal’s touch, unmarred and unscarred. In Witness Whereof, we do hereby set our hand and seal, this first day of April, 1928. THE SENIOR CLASS OF 1928. (Camille Womack, Notary Public.) Codicil : We, the Senior Class of 1928, this fifth day of May, with the future digestion of the pupils and teachers foremost in our minds, do implore someone to furnish the Cafeteria a change in menu. We suggest salmon salad, potato chips and crackers. pppppwm 1928 | Page Killy-Seven J $1 FRICASSEE MILE STONES OF 1927- 28 Sept. 19... Sept. 19-25 Sept. 27-28 Sept. 30 . Oct. 3.... Oct. 5. . . .

Barthel as cadet colonel leading his men in fine military style. Among these were William Beard and Alton Blouin. Our friends Alfred Hammond and Eddie Kaiser just completed their trans-Atlantic flight in the monoplane “Man o’ War.” As they landed in Amsterdam, Mr. “Sleepy” Stokes finished first in the high hurdles in the Olympics. Our next stop was at a well known school for boys. We met Arthur Fort as physical director conducting a class consisting of Jim Mahier, Charles Harrell, and other well known athletes. At the Polo Grounds George Granger gave us a thrill when he hit a home run winning the game for the Yankees. Clifford Gallagher and Richard Brown were interested spectors. When we arrived in Paris, we saw that Miss Fannie J. Nabors was to play in a recital. This was the closing event to a three-year music course. Madrid, the city of old Spain where we could see bull flights! The crowd of many thousands was thrilled by the brave and daring feats of our two famous matadors, Howell Morgan and Bob Harris. Our next place of interest was the beautiful cathedral in Florence, Italy. Jack Hebert greeted us with a hearty welcome. Margaret Herget and Margaret Wood were boarding the “Leviathan” after a six months trip through Europe. We left Europe and journeyed to the jungles of Africa. Who should we see but Brannoc Wilkinson and his guide, Andrew Aiello, trying in vain to tame a giant ape. As we journeyed southward through the “Dark Continent,” we stopped at a diamond mine. There we met Erma Robertson and Ada Louise Shields inspecting seme very valuable stones. By air, we went to the Fiji Islands where we beheld His Honor, Water Roberts, dancing around the pot and yelling like a regular cannibal. Two days later we arrived in China. General Ching Chong Chung entertained us with a native dance. He said that this dancer had just arrived, and that we must pay close attention. Ruth Mayo appeared from a corner and gave us a wonderful “Chinese Blackbottom.” : - r f - 1 9 2 8 r [ Page Sixty-Four ] k k: pr C c§c T r, 1 k M k k Or.

U. S. at last. As we landed, we were greeted by a group of friends whom we had not seen in many years, Ruth Chaney, Marietta Millet, and Jessie Miller. At the University of California, Marguerite and Harry Perkins were blowing up the grand stand by their hilarious yells and squawks. The National Republican Convention was a great meeting due to the stirring speech by Jack Chambers. Turner Bynum was nominated for president. An amusing incident during this convention was the great debate between Goyne Hobgood and the world famous politician, Major Iloople. At a theater in Chicago our little crowd saw the great photoplay, “The Eternal Lovers,” starring Mary Louise Miner and Willie Wheat. In a station at New York, we heard a familiar voice but could not determine its source. After inquiring here and there, we found S. L. Owens using his vocal organs to good advantage. He was saying, “Next train for Boston leaves on track number 5 at three thirty-five.” Our hearts stood still! We could not move! Miss Camille Womack was giving a speech on the deep subject which has caused more than one poor soul to lose his mind. She was discussing eleventh grade collaterals. Some days later Mr. Eugene McMillan’s newest creation in the ways of wearing clothing distracted our minds from the everyday life. Evelyn Fryoux, Beulah Mae White, and Iola Denham stupified the audience with their wonderful gowns. As we passed by the old maids’ home the crowd stopped and we spied a group of industrious welfare workers, Beulah Pace, Annie Michael, Louise Smith, and Lucille Segler. Alton Lea invited us to visit his new school of disappointed lovers. Rosa Saltz, C. E. Barthel, A. M. Rosenthal and a host of other old friends approached us with sad and downhearted looks on their countenances. We departed with downcast hearts. At the “Metropolian Opera House” Moriska Colomb, Naomi Sanchez, and Hilda Champagne brought back old memories by their beautiful singing. ' ' . 3 Warren Munson recently won the national golf championship, closest rival was Julius Mullins. His THE GRADUATE'S FAREWELL The gleam of golden school days ends, And here no longer can we rest.

A JEWELRY PURCHASE IS AN INVESTMENT IN PERMANENT VALUES MEN and nations pass. But their jewels remain. Of all the possessions of ancient civilizations, the most enduring have been the tokens wrought in precious stones and metals. Gone are the palaces of Egyptian kings; their gorgeous apparel and equipages. But scattered among the museums of today, in all parts of the world, many of their jewels are still intact; more beautiful and infinitely more valuable than ever. There it no finer gift “ H. Pc an Elgin Wauh. Featured in K-.Jc jt !e W’Ktr and toll M et’Ktt renting f-om Sif toSiyoo. Today, as always, a purchase at the jeweler’s is an investment in permanent values. Jewelry is one of the few luxury-commodities which can be “consumed year by year, decade after decade, without materially lessening the Quantity or quality of the basic value! Building up a line of jewelry means building up an asset-heritage for future generations, while enjoying the delight and charm of beautiful adornment in the building. The jewelry business is among the fastest-growing in America, because, more and more, keen Americans are putting their shopping money into imperishable values. than W HITE BROS.

Along came an ant and crawled on his nose. He paid no attention to it. Then a fly came and joined the ant, and still Harry paid no attention. A bee earner and a caterpillar, and they joined in the parade. Finally, however, a wasp lit on his nose. Being an unsociable insect, the wasp stung Harry right on the tip of his nose. He raised one hand and swept it across his face. “Just for that,” he said, “you'll all have to get off!” ■ ...i . i .. ;•. i i j ) ♦ PHOTOGRAPHS For the Fricassee furnished by EWING STUDIO BATON ROUOE.
