Previous to its establishment there existed the Academy, an institu- tion Which to a small extent and in a much modified form may be found throughout the country at the present day. The object of this latter institution was to give to any in- dividual Who was financially able to attend, a well-rounded education which would Iit him for a further pursuance of similar study in a college or university. A great diversity of subjects Were offered and classes were formed as occasion demanded. The academy, as here defined. served well its purpose. But during its years of predominance the need for a school Which would not only impart a classical knowledge, but also prepare young people for a life of immediate service, became apparent. Moreover, the tuition at an academy, to- gether with the necessity for young people to leave home in order to attend, had made it accessible to only a compara- tive few. Hence, for the purpose of teaching a free, pl-ag- tical, and cultural education, there was founded iirst in the city of Boston and later throughout the country, the free High School, similar in many respects to the Academy but of a more cosmopolitan nature. i During the years which have followed the establishment of the first High School the life of the American people has undergone many modiiications. Business has shifted from the country to the city, novel ideas have been inaugurated, ,, .15 - THE FHGET2 great projects have been undertaken, and diverse pursuits followed. Above all, with the maturity of industry, due to all these conditions, labor has changed. With this develop- ment innumerable demands have been placed upon the young people from year to year, and the school has been forced to install new courses of instructions to meet those demands. By such a process there has evolved the modern High School which offers a comprehensive course of instruction either of a scientific, classical, commercial, or industrial nature. But is this all that the High School offers? Is only an abstract knowledge of a limited number of subjects to be gained by attending it? No, there are taught lessons of in- finitely greater importance, embodying those qualities which are requisites of true men and true women. There is devel- oped by the wide-awake and diligent student a broadness of mind, due to the reception of the diverse opinions of others, and an attitude of self-confidence, demanded in High School activities. Under the right influences new ideals are awakened, while by wholesome association and constant social intercourse a proper moral attitude is fostered and developed. The result of these is the art of adaptation to society and to changing vicissitudes. During the last century which has elapsed since its foun- dation, from the doors of the High School have emerged the truly great men and women of the nation-men and women who have directed the 'fShip of State through the whirlpool of war and who have led the Allied armies to victory. With the period of reconstruction at hand, and with the innumer- able problems to be solved in the future, there falls upon the young people of America responsibilities to be relieved only through proper preparation. Since the High School offers the opportunities for this preparation, the young people of America, if they are to serve their country, fellowmen, and themselves, must take advan- tage of its opportunities, for the High School is the Open Door to Success. B. L. S. ,494 THE 'HGER BOLSHEVISM Bolshevism must not be looked upon indifferentlyg glanced at and then left to take its own course. lt is like a poisonous jungle reptile, lying hidden and silent until sud- denly seeing its prey it springs up, poisons its victim and has him in its power. It has been such in Russia and is spread- ing throughout the European countries. The beliefs of the Bolshevist are horrible. He believes that the government, all existing institutions, and the pres- ent civilization itself must be wiped out, and that this must be done by fire and bloodshedg he believes that after this has been accomplished then a new idealistic life can be attained. We see that his theories are unsound. And apparently the Bolshevist leaders are usurping the positions of power that they condemn in others. Many conditions lead to producing a Bolshevist. Discon- tent is usually at the bottom of themg poverty is another fac- tor. We see the poor, poverty-stricken person become soul- weary and then follow hopelessness. Soon anger and hatred spring into the heart and then we find a condition of reckless- ness and the madness seething through him causes a seeking for fire and bloodshed. One does not find the Bolshevist among the rich, the suc- cessful in any art or profession, and not usually among the people of rural districts. One does not find him among the sane and well educated. There is one thing of which we may be certain, that, to prevent the Bolshevist from gaining a foothold in our coun- try, our state and our community is going to mean much to us as individuals and as a nation. To keep him out may be less difficult than to put him out. lt is the duty and in the power of every true American to help in preventing such a condition of Bolshevism in our country as is now ruling in parts of Europe. E. H. S. -50- T-IE 'HGEI2 We, as students and Americans, take this opportunity of expressing our sorrow and regret for the death of that typi- cal American, Theodore Roosevelt. Aside from having been President of our nation, a position that can be attained by so few, he was a statesman, who filled many other public offices. He was as well an athlete, an explorer and adven- turer, a scholar and an author. We need men like Theodore Roosevelt, strong, coura- geous, true, and good. May We all find inspiration from that noble life. E. H. S. In compiling the material for the 1919 issue of The Tiger the staff has put forth exceptional effort in the presence ot' adverse circumstances to make the best annual possible re- gardless of time, labor, and expense. We offer no apologies for its numerous imperfections, but only trust that the mem- bers of the succeeding staff will profit by these mistakes. If, gentle reader, when you have finished this book, you have developed a greater interest in, and a greater desire to serve your school, this book will have accomplished its pur- pose, and will not have been made for naught. NI' I3 HA Nffr ALUMNI lJEI'.XRTMEN'l' Dorothy .lack Frederick 419151 News! News! Old news, and such news as you never heard off Alumni, we all know what it means. We know that from the view- point of the Freshmen it is the attainment of an end-but it is only the Alumni themselves who realize that it is only a beginning'-a beginning as Freshmen in the greater school of Life. It is with gratitude that wc ot' the Alumni look toward our foster parent as we find our High School education helping us in the various lines of work we have chosen. Our interest was not transitory, for it is still stimulated by the activities of the new classes. And although many of the faces above our old desks are strenae, may we hope to be considered by these younger students as schoolmates in the love and reverence we owe to our Alma Mater. THE CLASS UF 1916 Glancing over the list ot' names composing the C1355 tif 1916, we tind its members enjoying the most varied of interests and occupations. Strange as it may seem, Cupid has attacked this class with a vehemenee almost unknown in ths history of the High Schoo1. There have been four marriages already and a number ot' engageinents rumored. You are wondering about the rumors 7 Well, listen: I heard-but that's gossip and far be it from the Tiger to degenerate. Permit me instead to offer a more brief account of the class of 15116.

Amidst the shouts of the returning' soldiers Count Lafeu, peering' through his monocle, exclaimed, Ah! Ze mon-u-ment! That afternoon the soldiers left for a camp. How happy everyone was! Rather, how grateful everyone wasg for there certainly was no happiness in the hospital department of the ship where many wounded soldiers had been cared for during' their voyage. There also was no happiness for Count Lafeu in the revenue office where he was having considerable trouble with his luggage and passport. Now Count Lafeu was not a bad type of man for those who liked him. But on the first observation of him one would unconsciously mutter. Well, from where did that come? He was of very small stature. which was largely due to the habit of leaning on his cane, and to make him more striking his ears protruded from under his hat as if contemplating' Hifxht. Count Lafeu gave a sisfh of relief when he was settled in his hotel room. Tomorrow I will make my debut. into ze American society, he mused as he took a letter from his pocket addressed to Mrs..John Courtenay. I zertainly was lucky when zat Courtenay chap happened on my Chateau. I'll bet it contains ze line words of pl-aisgj' and hg turned the letter over and over. The next day the Courtenay home was honored by the presence of Count Lafeu. He bowed very formally over Mrs. Courtenasvs hand and spoke in his best English. Madame, I have come to bre-eng you ze message from your son, Robert. Mrs. Courtney turned pale. was her son Wounded or perhaps dead ? No alarm, ma chere Madame, he added, noting the panic-stricken expression on her face. Nuzzing is ze mattaire. Here is ze message. Mrs. Courtenay hurriedly tore open the envelope and read' August 18, 1918. Dear Mother: I am feeling fine and have escaped all accident so far. I am making a collection of relics, and being unable to carry this one with me, have sent him home. Jane will adore him, for she always did like novelties. I camped on his land for a while and he and I got intimately acquainted. He was physi- cally unfit for the army, so he spent most of his time , at his chateau near the front. Your loving son, 55 BOB. Ohl I'm so glad you have come. I'll send for Jane, Mrs. Court- enay gushed. Mary, serve tea immediately and tell Jane to come down, she instructed a maid as she led the way to the large living room. In a few minutes the maid returned. Miss Courtenay is not feel- ing well and wishes to be excused this afternoon, and with a nod she disappeared. If you will please pardon me, I shall speak to her myself, poor child. Zertainly, zertainly, avec plaisir, Madame, answered the count with ardor. Mrs. Courtney entered Jane's room. Are you ill? Of course not, she quickly added in a sterner tone as she saw Jane sitting in her big comfortable chair almost buried in letters, with a picture in her hand and tears running down her cheeks. Come down at once. Count Lafeu-I think that's it-has just come from France. He brought a let- ter of introduction from Robert. He's simply divine, Jane. He'll be the rage of the season. What care Ifor 'rages' if only Jack could be home. I don't believe he's dead. She paused and glanced in the mirror. But I can't come down now. Just look at my nose. It's a sight. Well, Jane dear, put on another dress-your new lace one. By that time, with the help of a little powder, you'll be perfectly present- able. Now do hurry. It's almost time for tea. A count-that's just like Robert to do something he shouldn't, exclaimed Jane haughtily when her mother had gone. Meanwhile, Count Lafeu was doing some figuring. This was a business trip for the French Government. Why not make it a little business trip for himself? He never left ego in the background. Now was his chance. With Jane's dowry I could easily restore my little chateau in France to its former condition. Perhaps have a little .,. 59- PIIHIE GED over to- here his renections were suddenly interrupted by Mrs. Courtenay's entrance and announcement that Jane would be d0I16 in 2 few minutes. The count spent that afternoon and many afternoons at the Court- enay home. There were talks, walks, and rides with Jane, and as a finale a little talk with Mr. Courtenay. But it was always the same reply: Jane is her own boss when it comes to choosing a husband. Mrs. Courtenay, who was very insistent on the union, tried to per- suade Jane. But mother, I don't love him, insisted Jane. But he has a title and a chateau. Jack may never come back. His name was in the casuality list. He can only be a memory. Besides, the count is so distinguished. 'Distinguished in looks, not deeds, retorted Jane. A letter for you, Miss Jane, interrupted Mary. I Oh, mother! I told you so, she cried as she ran towards the door. Mrs. Courtenay was Uflabbergastedf' although she wouldn't have used the term herself. She picked up the note- Dear Jane: I arrived at the base hospital a week ago. I cannot write and the nurses have not had time to write before this. I am longing for some g-ood old talks like those we had before I left. Yours, JACK. Mrs. Courtenay looked out of the window. All she could see was a roadster midst a cloud of dust going! down the driveway. A CONFIRMED BACHELOR Claire Smith '22 Harold Van Dyke was a confirmed bachelor from childhood. And now, at the age of twenty-three, he was worse than ever before. W'hose fault it really was no one was ever able to tell. but Harold positively would not have anything to do with girls. Being one of the descendants of the Van Dyke family of Old New York, way back in Petey Stvve- sant's time, this naturally placed him in the best society of that city. Harold might have enjoyed it, if girls were not 0119 of the principal features, but since it had to be that way he very seldom went. out, His favorite pastime was reading a good book with his pipe for companv. When the war came in 1914, Harold was the first in his crowd to enlist. His excuse was that he wanted a little adventureg but, as all his friends knew, it was to escape his worst ene1ny--gi1-ls. After several months of hard training, Harold had risen to the 'rank of cap- T-IE '-IIGER tain. It just came naturally, he explained to his father who had asked, i'How did you do it, Hal ? He lived through two years of adventure, or war-and somehow he naturally escaped all that, with exactly nine wounds and with being decorated with the Croix de Guerre. He had been in France just six months and was spending a ten-day leave in Paris when he received word from New York that his father had died from a stroke, leaving all worldly possessions to his only son, Harold Vincent Van Dyke. Not being allowed to come home at the time, he went back to the front line trenches. His father's stern, yet kind face was always before him. His nights were often sleepless-always thinking of Dad, If he ever did get back home, who would be there to welcome him? Rela- tions? Yes, but what were they compared to the best pal he had ever had? He had lost his mother when but a boy of twelve, just ready to enter high school. He had completed that course in four years, then, after one year of travel in America, he had entered Harvard, and had become a star in athletics, a born student, a lover of fun-but some- how he got around all that without the assistance of girls. Many school friends would still be his. but as things were, he had lost everything Hot tears ran down his tanned cheeks as he thought of his boyhood pal, That night as he lay under the stars, he prayed that the next time Hover the top would be his last. In the end of his prayer a lieutenant next to him heard him murmur, God, if I'm not killed, please send me someone-someone I can love as I did Dad. That someone was sent, but in a curious way. After Harold had received his ninth wound, a very bad one in his upper forearm caused by an exploding bomb, he was shipped home. Upon reaching home he immediately went to his father's lawyer, who handed him the will, written two days before his father's death. The last paragraph caused Harold to look up at Mr. Bryant and then down at the paper again, as if hardly believing his eyes. That para- graph was: Harold must, under any circumstances, take Alma Jean Barber, daughter of my junior partner, now dead, as his ward, keeping her until she marries. Holy smoke, Mr. Bryant, what am I to do about this? he cried. Just as it says, Harold, Mr. Bryant answered. But a girl-a-girl, stormed Harold, I never would be able to sleep, eat, talk, or do anything with one of them in the house. Gee whiz, there will have to be more than one girl. I suppose she will have to have a dozen and one maids to wait on her, he sighed. Oh, women aren't that bad, laughed Mr. Bryant, the humorous side at that moment appealing to him. TI-IE 'HGEI2 Well, believe me, she will be sent off to some college or something until she does get married. Don't be too hasty about it, advised the lawyer. Didn't Mr. Barber leave her well provided for? asked Harold. Yes, indeed, answered the other, very well provided for, but H girl not yet of age with no relatives to speak of could not get along in this world alone, could she? No, I suppose not, agreed Harold, gloomily, but I don't know why I had to be picked on. It was your father's wish, said the older man kindly. That's true, returned Harold, I guess I would do anything for Dad. You are to write Miss Barber immediately, said Mr. Bryant. All right, said Harold slowly, I will when I gather words with which to write. After dinner that evening, he set about the task of writing. Six letters were written before he finally got one to suit him. It was a very formal affair, but Harold really wasn't to blame. After he had posted it, he breathed a sigh of relief, but with the thought the worst is yet to come. And come it did, in one week-a girl with hair the color of which Harold was never able to describe-the nearest he ever got to it was burning copper -and eyes of the deepest blue, and a smile that was sweet enough to melt a heart of stone. He had just finished dinner when the bell rang. He bounded to the door expecting some of his college chums who were just home from France on furlough. Instead of six jolly fellows, there before his eyes stood-a girl! Oh, I beg your pardon, he apologized, taking her in at a glance. This is 118 Riverside Drive, and you are Mr. Van Dyke? she asked, sweetly. Y-yes, stuttered Harold. Well, I am Jean Barber, she explained. Glad to know you, I'm sure, he greeted her. He had forgotten to invite her in, but somehow he at last got around to it. He then, a little awkwardly, helped her off with her coat. While Jean was eating, Harold called the fellows in turn, saying that he was sorry, but he had an important engagement. Getting important, aren't you? laughed Frank Chambers, Well, you see-- began Harold. Now, don't try to get around it, teased the other, 'fess up. It's a girl, Hal. Yes, it's a girl, Harold acknowledged. I knew it, I knew, howled the other. Please, Franki- began Harold again. -53- T-1 'ITG Just wait till you hit the club, you-well, just wait, went on Frank. Oh, go on! Here Harold hung up the receiver. He went to the library and slumped into a chair with his pipe for company. How long he sat there he didn't know, but some time later he discovered somebody else was in the room. Oh, excuse me, he said. Won't you come over and sit down? Yes, thank you, murmured the girl. Jean started the conversation on the war, Harold's favorite subject, by asking him about his experiences. He was soon telling an absolute stranger all about himself. He somehow failed to mention that he hated girls, but it Was for the best he argued with himself. They retired at ten o'clock. The next morning Harold didn't find it so hard eating as he thought he would. Jean was dressed very much differently than he imagined a girl would be dressed for breakfast. She had on a neat blue dress with some soft white stuff at the neck and wrists. Harold surmised that it was probably cheesecloth or something like that. He had often heard men talk of their wives' and daughters' clothes. He suddenly realized that the lady across the table was speaking. t'You know, Mr. Van Dyke, I leave for school tomorrow. Oh, how nice, breathed Harold, er-AI mean, I'm very sorry, he finished lamely. Little was said after that, until he found courage enough to ask her to go auto riding with him. She agreed and ran upstairs to get her coat and hat. When Harold reached the side door, five minutes later, she was there waiting for him. He never understood how she had got- ten ready so quickly. They reached home at eleven-thirty and then had lunch. Jean went shopping in the afternoon. Harold found his favorite chair in the library, with a good book and his pipe for company. If it wasn't for these, he murmurrned as he sat down. Jean came home at five. Dinner was ready at six. While they were eating, Jean said, I met some friends down street today and they in- vited me to join them in a theater party tonight. Do you mind ? Naturally, Harold thought he didn't. Lieutenant Rogers will call for me at eight, she said, rising from the table. Where on earth had he heard that name before? At eight the lieutenant came. Harold recognized him as the one who had been at the front with him just before coming home. They talked of the War until Jean came downstairs. The two left immediately, Harold gazing after them. Darn him! What's he doing around here, anyhow? he growled as the door closed. He then went to his book and pipe, -53- THE FITGER On their way to the theater Billy Rogers said, Your friend cer- tainly is a queer fellow. You know when his father flied, he prayed that he would either be killed or that someone would be Sfmt to take his father's place. Poor fellow. Yes, it is too bad, agreed Jean. Harold heard Jean come in that evening, heard Billy bid her good- night and good-bye, as I leave for school tomorrow, you know, she said. Let me know how you are once in awhile, said the lieutenant, as he left. Certainly, laughed Jean. Harold had been ready to light his pipe. He had the match lit, and hearing the above conversation, he paused to listen. The match burned closer and closer. It reached his fingers. Rats, he growled. The next day he bid her good-bye at the station, addressing her as Miss Barber. Jean, if you please, Harold, she said as she stepped on the train. Harold watched it as it slowly left Grand Central. Then he turned to go home saying, UNever knew a female could be so nice. That had been late in the fall and now it was summer again. Har- old had heard from Jean several times and she had spent her Easter vacation with him. He was now spending his summer in his lodge in the mountains, and Jean had promised to come. It was getting late, and Harold had written and asked her to come and have a fortnight house party. He was sitting gloomily watching the water of the lake when A'Boo came from behind. Turning, he saw Jean standing there with a smile of welcome on her face. Two days later the guests arrived, Some were Harold's friends, others were Jean's. It was Saturday night, and dancing was in full swing. Harold and Jean were dancing together and, as they came to an open doorway, Harold suggested going out., Jean ggi-egg. Some- how or other he held on to her hand. They walked the length of the porch, then down the steps into the white moonlight. A little way down from the lodge was a rustic bench on which they sat down, H31-Old then turned to Jean and said, Jean, am I as had as l'm painted '? I mean about not liking girls. I don't think so, answered Jean shyly. Then you think I'm all right? he went on a little eageylv. Ye-e-s. ' And do you--? But just then the wind carried their voices in another direction and the moon went behind the clouds. ..54- T-IE 'HGE12 Pin, Pin, bring me good luck, For I'm the one that picked you up. Mary E. Hemphill '21 James Matthew Marks, known to his friends as Jimmy, was a typical boy. He was just a Freshman in High School. He had a girl, or rather the girl had him,-for he had a f'case on Vivian Detrick. She was a little dark-eyed, dark-haired girl of the B Freshman Class. She greatly admired the boys of classes ive and six, and even looked with shy glances at those in class eight. Jimmy, however, met with her con- tempt, because he was only a little Freshman. The older girls petted and flattered him land he wasn't a sissy eitherj, calling him that cute little Freshman. The day when this story begins was Monday. Always my unlucky day, thought Jimmy, as he ran out of his home on his way to school. As he started up the walk he noticed a common pin glistening on the sidewalk and stooped to pick it up. He was just a kid in customs, although not in standingg for was he not a Freshman in High School? Putting the pin on his coat lapel, he re- peated the old saying, Pin, pin, bring me good luck, for I'm the one that picked you up. In picking up the pin he dropped his book. Out of it fluttered a piece of paper which read, Choose your favorite poem and bring it to class. Jimminy crickets! he thought, I havent' anyg but no time for it now. He raced on to school, for he lived a considerable distance from the High School and had only eight minutes to get there. On his way he overtook his little sister Lois proudly carrying her first primer. It had a sheet of paper carefully folded in it, for the teacher had told her to put it there so her bool-1 wouldn't get dirty. Jimmy grabbed it, de- spite her protests, and skimming through it found no other poem than Jack and Jill or Ba, Ba, Black Sheep. So he rushed on. At school, having one minute before the gong, he hurried down to the school library. He snatched up a book of poems and just had time to see the title and first verse of that famous poem Excelsior, by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, He hurried into English class the first period a little apprensively. Being a Freshman he thought he had to have his lessong and so he did under Professor Mortimer, the stern yet proficient instructor. Jimmy thought at first he would say that his poem was the same as the vic- tim before him. Unfortunately, he was called on first. THE 'IIGEI2 James, tell the class the title of your poem, Why YOU like ii, Wim wrote it, and as much of it as you can. Poor Jimmy confusedly rose to his feet and said, Excelsior, by Longfellowg but it's been so long since I read it, I can't remember it all.' Excelsior, said the professor. A splendid poem indeed! Now. James, tell us what Excelsior means. I am glad to see one who appre- ciates true poetry. Jimmy having' no more idea of its meaning than an Eskimo, stam- mered around and finally said that it was a kind of sawdust usually used for packing dishes. To Jimmy's mortification, Vivian was in that class. VVhen the teacher scolded him and explained that Excelsior came from the Latin word meaning 'fever upward, she looked at him with the smile peculiar to females of that age and tittered,-actually tittered! Fussed, Jimmy caught his hand on Hthat pin, the innocent cause of his Waterloo. He exclaimed, Oh, darn! 'tJames! that will dog leave the room. At noon when he went home for lunch his mother, who had been working hard all morning on a dress, made him slip it on to make the hem even. He fumed and fussed over being in female attire, saying he never did like females anyhow. The door bell rang and his mother opened the door for whom of all persons-but Vivian. Seeing him the second time that day in what seemed to him a dreadful predicament. she giggled. She didn't need to, either, he thought resentfully. He didn't realize, being tired and hungry, that his tousled hair and belligerent countenance so illy offset the frilly lawn dress he was attired in. Her errand over, Vivian left, and a highly relieved Jimmy soon dis- carded the dress. In history class that afternoon the teacher was telling a true storv of the ever illuminated cross on a church in the New York Bowery. It dealt with a young boy who ran away to sea. His father was dead and he was his mother's idol. Before she died she left money to found 3 church, on condition that the cross on the top be ever illuminated. This she did in the belief that her son might return some day. Over and over in Jimmy's mind were these thoughts running: Guess I'll run away to see what Vivian-I mean anybody-would Say' Oh, gee! I'll bet they'd burn 'excelsior' for me. J At last school was out. As Jimmy was hurrying along he Qauo-ht up to Vivian. Now, she had just been dropped by 3 handsome Juliior she admired, for another girl. So consequently she tried the old 0-ago' .- 65- THE 'TIGER of dropping her handkerchief. As they both stooped to pick it up she noticed the pin, a conspicuous ornament on his lapel. fAnything is an excuse for a woman to talk, so?l Y Why, Jimmy! Is that a good luck pin? The look on Jimmy's face as he gazed on that pin would have done credit to a Bolshevik. Naw! I'm the original little pin cushion, he said, and started on. Jimmy, called Vivian softly. Come here, will you? Aw, why? Because-because I want you to. You know, Jimmy, I'm sorry 1 laughed at you, and I think you're the best looking boy in our class- now! And Jimmy, I-like you, Blissful silence. Oh, Vivian! Yes, Jimmy? Will you be my girl? r - gk v-. I fs f' Pk Pk :is THE TRAGIC STORY OF A CO-ED Emma S, Rank '19 This was the second day of teaching in the High School for Tom Winters, a good-looking young professor. He was lonely and in a strenge city, with only Dick, an old college chum, for company. As yet he had seen no one who particularly interested him. While turning these gloomy thoughts over in his mind, the signal sounded for the last class of the day and in walked the fairest vision his eyes ever beheld. The dainty bit of blue and white walked across the room and dropped into a chair. Tom's voice almost trembled as he asked the vision her name. Dorothy Smith, she answered as the blue eyes looked up into his. What a beautiful name! he murmured to himself. That night Tom was bursting with the news as he met Dick. And say, boy, she'll never flunk in any of my classes! The next day Tom awaited the last class with suppressed excite- ment, The charmed hour arrived and the little yellow-haired creature walked in as before.

Tom blinked his eyes to make sure he saw arigrht. Her jaw was moving with rapidity now. He Called on her to recite to make sure. Dorothy arose, gulped, grew red in the face, and began Cl'l'rl-Qlfll. Just then the bell rang. That evening: Dick met Tom. Say, he asked, t'how's that little beauty who Caught your eye? Toni moved his jaw in imitation of her.

Large gray eyes they were, expressing every passing emotion of the owner. Yet, handicapped thus, she had started to school looking eagerly for friends. She was doomed to disappointment. The first few weeks slipped by, leaving her unnoticed and lonely, wistfully watching the boys and girls at play. Then one eventful day she had been called into the game. She had been so happy until Jack Roland called her a speckled turkey-egg and the cry was immediately taken up by the other boys and girls. Hurt sobs shook her little body as she ran home with the taunts of 'ffreckle-face, speckle-face ringing in her ears. The follow- ing day the taunts reached the ears of Miss Edwards, the teacher, and she bore down on the offenders. They fell back, ashamed, before her stern rebuke-all but Julia Harmon, who said impertinently: Well, Nan's face is all freckled, anyhow! The real reason that Nancy Lee has freckles is because her skin is much finer and more delicate than yours. She will in the future have a complexion that you will envy. Miss Edwards defended Nancy. From then on Julia and Nancy were enemies, and Nancy resolved to make them sit up and take notice that even a freckle-face could do something worth while. Accordingly, she turned to her books, and with untiring zeal led her class through every grade. Oftentimes she helped those who snubbed her quite plainly on every other occasion. When they entered High School she more clearly realized her posi- tion of wallHower, as Julia led the class in their social affairs. It was only in their common interest in experiments that Jack Roland ever noticed herg at other times Julia completely dimmed her hopes. Grad- uation drew near and Nancy quite forgot her unhappiness of the past years when she learned she had won the coveted First Honors. It seemed to Nancy that her petty disappointments had faded into nothing- ness when she realized that at last she had triumphed. She had proven that a freckle-face could do something worth while. One day, two weeks before the graduation exercises, Julia stood before the mirror in the girls' cloakroom when Nancy hurried in. Do you want the glass? Julia asked her as she gave a last deft pat to her hair. Yes, if you please, Nancy replied quietly. I can never get my hair arranged nicely so that it will stay in place. Yes, it does seem too bad that you couldn't at least have had curly hair, Julia returned with a trace of pity in her voice. Nancy flushed painfully at the remark and Julia noticed it. If Miss Edwards could only see the color in your cheeks now. Do you remember she told us you would have a better complexion than any -69- THE 'ITGEI2 of us-J' But there was a look in Nancy's eyes which told Julia she was treading on dangerous ground, so she began to talk of the coming graduation. Who1n are you going to the party with after it is over? Julia asked. I don't 'know as yet, Nancy replied honestly, as anger and resent' ment stirred in her heart. Julia uttered an exclamation of sympathy. Of course, I am going with Jack Roland, she said as she went toward the door. After she had gone Nancy realized anew that book knowledge did not fill the void of loneliness. Later that day Mack Johnson had bashfully asked if he might have the pleasure of her company. She had very quietly answered in the affirmative. He at least was a real masculine, although he had always preferred athletics to girls. The eventful evening arrived and as Nancy stepped forth to give her oration, she felt once again that life was worth while. The rest of the evening was a whirl of music, laughter, and pink ice cream to Nancy. Never had she enjoyed herself more than that night. The next few years were spent at 'tNormal preparing herself for teaching. During vacation she heard of Jack Roland's brilliant college career and rumor had reported the engagement of Julia and Jack. When Nancy's course was completed at 'tNormal, she secured an ap- pointment in the home school. One day the school commissioned young Dr. Roland to report on the health of the school children, and Nancv's school was included. Here he saw Nancy respected by teachers and pupils alike and became interested in her work. Two years later the Greenville Banner announced the marriage of Miss Nancy Lee and Dr. Roland. At last she was no longer unwanted and unhappy! - Till- THE FIIGEI2 PRESENTATION DF LADDER Worthy President of the B Senior Class, in behalf of the Class of '19, February Division, I am presenting you this ladder, a token signifi- cant of our sentiments. What ideas are immediately suggested by this ladder? We may call this the ladder of ambition and of education, each rung a hoped- for end. We are still students, and our efforts thus far have been spent mostly in school work. The education we have received is priceless, though it is incomplete. For, indeed, education can never be considered as completed. However, no material value could equal the worth of that knowledge we have acquired. Of special value has been our jour- neying through the field of literature, sharing the mental wealth of the world's great men. Could the pleasure and inspiration gained by reading the best authors be replaced by the possession of mere dollars? We have, indeed, advanced a little on the endless path of knowledge. Eight years were spent in the grades, in acquiring the rudiments of education. This was the first step of the ladder. Then came the four years of High School, during which our aim has been a successful grad- uation. The perseverance required to gain this end in the face of dis- appointments was great. For many remained in High School, perhaps at a great sacrifice, when their help Was needed at home. But here we are on the second rung, looking toward some new goal. This new aim may be very clear, or very vague. Yet none of us are without some ambition. We cannot say how many rungs there are ahead of us. There are so many in life, and nearly all are unforeseen. But at this point of our lives, as at a milepost, we may look back and be determined to go onward with the same amount of hope which has carried us this far. In thinking of what we have gained, our minds turn with gratitude upon our faculty. They, too, have had to persevere, and perhaps have had real cause for discouragement. We thank them heartily for the help they have given us, and for their efforts in our behalf. T-IE i-HGEI2 My wish to you, my classmates, is that you may mount this ladder with steady strides, and that your lives may be Hlled with true success and happiness. Worthy President, We present this ladder to you, knowing that your class will be eager to carry on the work which we are now leaving. VVe place great hopes in the class following us. We trust that you may uphold the honor of the school, that your record as A Seniors may be brilliant and successfulg that your achievements and gratitude may reward the noble work of our faculty, and that your spirit and efforts may shine forth, a splendid example to those who follow. Heights by great men, reached and kept Were not attained by sudden Hight, But they, While their companions slept, Were toiling upward in the night. -John Murray, Q L. QW -7-m., HE 'HGEI2 ACl'El l'AN CE Oli' LADDER Tonight, on behalf of the June Division of the Class of 1919, of Beaver Falls High School, I accept the ladder, the significance of which is sacred to each one of us. It is symbolical of toil, of advancement, and of achievement. It is representative of uninterrupted effort upon the part of those who have possessed it, in an endeavor to receive an education, to make the lives which God has given them worth while, and to give to their fellowmen as much as they have received. Without end, this ladder of learning towers into inconceivable heightsg so that through aspiration and silent toil one ascends, rung by rung, into ai greater field of accomplishment and service. During no period in the existence of the world have the annuals ol' history been so crowded with the biographies of great men and women as the period of the great war through which we have just lived, men and women who, in the face of opposition, have ascended upon the ladder of life to their places of usefulness. Great minds directed the war and were instrumental in bringing it to a closeg great minds have estab- lished peace and are endeavoring to tranquilize the world to assure freedom and peace for the future. But there now arises the necessity for men and women of personality, capable of assuming the duties evolved upon them by the great struggle, and with the ability to pervert further strife and thereby to assure peace and justice for all time. The young people of America must supply this demand. It is they who must ascend to the highest rung of this ladder of learning and accomplishment in order to reach their hour of usefulness. Longfellow has expressed this thought in the following lines: How beautiful is youth! How bright it gleams With its illusions, aspirations, dreams! Book of Beginnings, Story without End, Each maid a heroine, and each man a friend. All possibilities are in its hands, No danger daunts it, and no foe withstandsg In its sublime audacity of faith, 'Be thou removedl' it to the mountain saith, And with ambitious feet, secure and proud, Ascends the ladder leaning on a cloud! T-IE 'IIGED And so from you, members of the graduating' class, on behalf of the June Division, I receive this larlcler, fully appreciating' the respon- sibility which accompanies its presentation, and the care and respect which it deserves. I trust that, until such time as we may confer it upon a succeeding: class, We may cherish and revere it, that we as a class may win for ourselves as high a reputation as you have won. By so doing, I hope that we may make possible for those who follow us what you and your predecessors have made possible for us. -President Class VII, Q Q MQW Xl ,f 'Y 0, s 42 :wh CLASS PROPHESY OF 1919 It is a rather hard task to be a prophet. I would father be 21 weather man any day, for folks would not blame me if it rained. But harder tasks have been assigned to man, such as lickin' Kaiser Bill, and have been accomplishedg so it is indeed with great pleasure that I accept the role of prophet of the Class of 1919, the most illustrious class that ever entered or went forth from the portals of Beaver Falls High School. It gives me much pleasure to step for a little while into the Future, and placing myself at a goodly age, twenty-five years from now, to tell you the fate of this glorious Class of 1919. My information comes through the columns of the Orange and Black, for a certain day in the year 1944. This particular evening paper, which numbers ten full size sheets, seems to be devoted largely to the Class of 1919, which is working hard to get all its members to- gether for a big reunion on the twenty-fifth anniversary of their gradu- ation. It is to be held in the laregst ten-story hotel ot Beaver Falls, the New Grand, situated on the premises of the old Grand. This evening edition of our paper is truly imposing, and a certain distinction is given to the one which I hold in my hand by having its front page graced with a large picture of Dr. Robert. Ague, a noted physician, whose clamor seems todbe, Patients, come this way, please, and who here promises to return and act. as toast master at the twenty- iifth alumni banquet of his class. Indeed, the whole front page is given over to letters from the members of 1919, saying that they will be pres- ent at the reunion or giving excuses for their absence. Perhaps you would like to hear a few of these messages. 24 PF Dis 22 My Dear Classmates: You will doubtless be pleased to know that I shall be with you at the reunion. After twenty-tive years of exhaustive studv, during which I have become prematurely shrivelled and bald-headed, but in which mv brain has grown to masterly proportions.

Hilda and Kenneth. Dear Classmates: Don't fail to be at the reunion. My partner and I shall be there and can promise you all special rates on good pictures or likenesses of yourselves. Pictures finished while you wait. Cook QQ Lytle, Tintype Association. Dearly Beloved Friends: It would please me greatly to be present at this memorable re- union, but I cannot, for I never allow my earthly duties to interfere with my heavenly ones. As it is near our own commencement I cannot leave the convent. Catherine Snograss, Mother Superior, St. Mary's, 23: :jz There are more letters of a similar nature on this page, but I shall pass them by and turn to the next page of advertisements. Marvel of all marvels! Two of the first to greet my eyes are: WILLARD DOUDS-TONSORIAL PARLOR The latest in hair cuts and pompadours at moderate prices. MADAME JESSIE GALTON-BEAUTY PARLOR The latest in hair dressing, manicuring, and facial massage. wk ek PEG 231 An advertisement of the much heralded L. Marcus Kr Company circus, announces among other attractions the world famous clown and comedian, Happy Francis, who entertains the people with his side- splitting stunts-now you see me and now you don.'t. Mr. Marcus is -77- THE FIIGER particularly fortunate in having obtained the services of Harry Iaattfb, who drums up the crowd. Mr. Marcus extends a heartY iNVit3U0U to the Class of 1919 and especially requests them to patronize the sand- wich counter and sample Leon Starke's special brand of hot dog sand- wiches. Undoubetdly you will all be interested in the sporting section of this issue. I see that Beaver Falls Hiegh School has defeated New Brighton High School to the tune of 35-O, due no doubt to the efforts of Coach Ellsworth Thomas. Mr. Thomas is still faithful as of yore to the Orange and Black, and has succeeded in organizing a clean-cut and first-class team. . Much information concerning the Class of 1919 is found in the per- sonal and social columns. Among the first things to attract my atten- tion is this announcement: t'Miss Martha Jasper, now Mrs. 1- 1I can't quite distinguish her married namel, is about to set sail on a journey to visit Minnie Marcus. Minnie, you will be interested to learn, is now a noted and favorite rag-time player at the court of her Majesty, the Queen of Spades. They regret that they cannot be with us at the reunion and send their heartiest Wishes for its success. Another item announces that Miss Lila Boswell, after twenty-tive years of waiting, will close her home for friendless maiden ladies and will launch her new venture, a matrimonial bureau. Should this prove unsuccessful, she is seriously considering establishing an asylum for rod-headed orphans. Edward Tilbrook announces through this edition that he is leaving San Francisco in his aeroplane, and expects to see soon the Class of 1919. Mr. Tilbrook returns as heart-whole as when he left twenty- Iive years ago, and oifers a free spin in the air to all the old students of '19. I fear that we will see very little of Mr. Tilbrook on thig visit, as no doubt most of his time will be taken up explaining' the various manipulations of his aeroplane to many of the charming' members of the fair sex of Beaver Falls and vicinity. Further on I see that Mr. Charles Scott has advanced to the position of assistant manager of the Can't Get. 'Em Up Chewing' Gum ASSOC-ia- tion. Mr. Scott, who is noted for his generosity, will bring a goodly supply of samples. The abilities of the various members of the Class of 1919 are so many and so varied that even in the theatrical column I see a familiar name. Miss Mildred Thickett, who will make her last appearance in Grand Opera at the Lyceum, announces her engagement to the leading THE 'HGE12 man of the company. Miss Thickett expects to be with us at the re- union, and will lead us in singing the old songs of long ago and help carry us back to the singing days of '19, Those attending the banquet will be delighted to hear that William Denhart, now a famous cartoonist, will be one of the entertainers of the evening. We are told that his little daughter inherits the artistic abilities of her father. He was heard to say to a friend the other day: Say, Ed, I wish you could see that little five-year-old girl of mine draw. Say, she drew a hen this morning, and it was no natural that when she threw it in the waste basket it laid there. , Following this announcement I see a familiar name in some men- tion of the faculty for the year 1944. I notice that Beaver Falls High has obtained the valuable services of Raymond Hawk as superinten- dent. No need to tell you that Raymond is the strictest and most exact- ing superintendent Beaver Falls has ever had. Miracles do happen once every decade. I see that Miss Bower has followed in the footsteps of Mr. Hawk and is teaching history in the grammar grades. I hear that she is intro- ducing historical controversies in the school. She was heard to ask Bobbie Ague, Jr., who discovered America. He was evidently thrown into a panic, and hesitated to make a reply, requesting the teacher to please ask something else. Why should I do that? demanded the dignified Miss Bower. Well, Teacher, replied Bobby, the fellers were talking about it yesterday, and Pat McKee said it was discovered by an Irish saint. Olaf, he said it was a sailor from Norway, and Gio- vonnie, he said it was Columbus. And, Teacher, if you had seen what happened you wouldn't ask a little feller like me. Well, look what's here! A celebrated scientific article by Eugene Pettler, who spent several years after his graduation in endeavoring to invent a smoke consumer. This he succeeded in doing, and when tried out at the Armstrong Cork Works, it proved such a howling suc- cess that Pettler was forced to leave his native city and seek refuge in the forests of Maine. There, seeing the vast waste of sawdust, he conceived a plan by which complexion powder might be made of the same. This powder, now being put up in tin cans bearing a handsome picture of Pettler, sold at a high price and is in great demand by ladies of social distinction. Samples may be secured upon request at any of the local drug stores.

HIGH There are just eighteen teachers in B. F. High, And they are always asking us Where? and Why'? If they catch you playing hooky -although 'tis quite clear That spring-fever is most contagious at this time of year- You had better be prepared and have a good excuse, Because when you try to camouflage-well, there isn't any use. But in spite of their inquisitiveness, we're quite fond of them, I'm sure And if you wish, now, of B. F. High, we'll endeavor to make a tour. All who've not met the Faculty, just step in the line, And I'1l introduce them to you, one at a time. First-Monsieur, meet Mrs. Hendricks, The person who our troubles will always share. Her motto must be, as we all agree: Whatever the weather may be, Whatever the weather may be, 'Tis the songs ye sing and the smiles ye wear, That's a-makin' the sun shine everywhere. THE FHGEI2 Second--Down in Room 10 you'll meet MBS Baker. Who dictates to us like a real dictator. Third--Miss Pearson is the Freshman's friend, To that you'll all agree, And if to her a hand you'l1 lend, She'll help you find Friendship's key. Fourth--Miss Mae Simpson, the Junior Vlass advisor, Than all the other teachers is said to be wiser. It may be true, but now, don't you Think that some of the others are very wise, too? Fifth-Miss McKee holds the key To Trig and Geometryg There's no doubt she's found out The secret of popularity. Sixth-Mr. Hemphill, so quiet and shy, You'd never know that he was by. Seventh-Mr. Mayers, who is very sage, Says he endorses Woman's SuH1'age. Eighth-Mr. Gensbiegler, from signing permits And asking, Why weren't you here ? Decides by the answer he-'d like to be a dentist Because of the money they must make each year. Ninth-Miss McGown, you needn't frown, If things don't go just right. It does'nt do to just sit down And not join in the iight. Tenth-We must not forget Miss Jamison, Who everybody's friendship has won. She certainly likes system, And you must always listen, For she also likes ah-tenshun! Eleventh-The1'e's Miss Cook, who doesyfg Always greets you with a smile. And when advice she gives to you, Consider it well worth while. scold you ... 53 TI'-IE PHGEI2 Twelfth-Here's Miss Carey, who's not contraryg But she always has her way. And we hope that while here we tarry, With B. F. H, S. she'll stay. Thirteenth-Miss Eakin teaches us Drawing, That's very plain to be seen, For we've learned to know every color From Orange-and-Black to Freshman Green. Fourteenth-Mr. Burns teaches Manual Training- The use of a hammer and nailg And although he's so shy in B. F. High, He's quite popular in-Eastvale. Fifteenth-Miss Funk knows how to cook and sew She's trying to teach us how To make pie a la mode sans dough, And most every kind of chow, Sixteenth-Miss Elliot taught us English, The best language in the world, Why Macbeth saw the ghost at the banquet, And Herrick's Advice to a Girl. Seventeenth-Miss Solomon teaches the history Of fishing-worms, spiders and ants, But I'll wager she knows less about t'cooties Than the fellow who's just back from France. Eighteenth-Last but not least, Miss Simpson, Whose French is always tres bonne. There may be teachers and teachers and teachers, Some of them large and some quite small, But in the opinion of the Senior Class She is surely the best of all. Mr. Atwell, so kind and true, Our highest praise we give to you, But praise is faint and can't express The standard of your worthiness. -gg..

The robins are singing up in the tree, While the brooks are running towards the sea. The fruit trees are blossoming and scent the air, And later we see the peach and pear. The sower has come from afar with his seed, And is raising the food which we may need. Now is the time when the rain brings the grass, A place where a fellow will sit with his lass.

So he got the seeds and bought a hoe, did Little Tommy Hamm. He worked all day, he worked all night, till he was full of aches, He spent much cash nor thought it rash, did this young country jake. He surveyed his job with honest pride, and boastingly he said, I'll fool my neighbor, Pat McBride. Then off he hiked to bed. But in the morn he looked forlorn, as he jumped out of bed, For a bitter frost had shown who was boss, and killed his plants all dead Five feet of snow was on his Farm, and what did Hamm do then? Why, he gave a high as he wiped his eye, and whispered Never Againl' -A. B.

We can never forget them Or their deeds, so valiant and brave, And our thoughts shall ever be with them, Yes, even beyond the grave. Some will return soon, victorious, But others will have given their all, Like the Christ who died on Calv'ry's cross To answer humanity's call. ..91..

FRIENDSHIP How often do we pause to think How truly rich we are? Each day, to friendship's chain a link We add, to shine there like a star. And as that chain grows lighter With friendships new and old, May they make life's journey brighter Like bright gems in pure gold. But oh! a friendship tried and true That shares each joy and sorrow, Is not to be forgotten for a new That lasts but through the morrow. For that true link is added To that inner circle of loveg Such a friendship is not ours to lose. For 'twas guided from above, -Elizabeth Fullerton '20. - Q4 - Y,v fig? f'x4 BFHS vi 1'....

W Frazier . .. -- - T1-IE 'HG FOOTBALL We know that the football season last year was no great success in any school on account of the Hu epidemic. The Beaver Falls schools were closed for four weeks during the fall. This caused a num- ber of games to be cancelled. New Castle High was not allowed to come here to play, while Ellwood City High and Heaver High cancelled. The Butler game, which was one of the big attractions at home was unable to be played, so one can see that the team did not have a fair chance to show its worth. Captain Pettler, Wilson, Smith, McGrew, Hamilton, McCandless and Windram were the letter men in school from the previous year. The team was without guards, center, one end, and quarterback. But it was no great task to tind men to fill these positions from the great number of boys out for football. The Beaver Falls football team was lucky in having Dr. Fred Ward as coach. He had made his letters in football at the University of Pitt for three years and was one of Pittfs best halfbacks. He coached New Brighton two years ago, but last year he decided to stay on his own side of the river. The first game of the season was with Washington High at home. Of course, the hardest game had to be first, when we had so many new men on the team. Washington defeated Beaver Falls the year before last at Washington on a very muddy field, by the score of 54 to 0, so they came here confident of running up a large score. Even though they outweighed the Beaver Falls team twenty pounds to the man, they soon found that they had to work to win this game. The game ended with the score 14 to 0 in Washington's favor. But it was no disgracep in fact, it was some little honor for a team with so many new men as had Beaver Falls to keep down the score as well as they did. Washing- ton had three or four men good enough to play on any 0011626 team- The lineup: yvashington.-14 Position Beaver Falls-0 Irwin ..... . . . L. E. . .. ..... Harvey Gibson .. ... L.

It was at Charleroi, and as Charleroi had defeated the team which tied with Washington a few weeks previously, they felt assured that this would be another vic- tory for them. But they were mistaken, for we defeated them 15 to 0. Every man on the team played his best. McCandless received a punt and ran seventy yards for a touchdown, the first one made. Captain Pettler received a forward pass and succeeded in carrying it over the goal line for the second touchdown. McGrew and Harvey both fell on a fumbled ball behind Charleroi's goal line, netting: two more points for Beaver Falls. This victory put a little more confidence in the members of the team.

Wilkinsburg was the next town that Beaver Falls visited. Thev had played Washington the Saturday before to a scoreless tie. Conse- quently, Beaver Falls knew that if this game was to be won, thev would have to play real football. They must have done it, because they succeeded in scoring one touchdown, while VVilkinsbure was unable to score. The score might have been 14-0 had Harvey not tripped Over 3 rope after receiving' a forward pass over the goal line and fumbled the ball. Edward Kerr scored the only touchdown of the game after simi- larly receiving' a forward pass over the goal line.

The next game with Rochester was the saddest event of the whole season. Everything seemed in favor of Rochester. The poor punting of Windram and Hamilton was against Beaver Falls, while the Roches- ter punter seemed to get along all right, even though the mud did stick to his shoes. Eckstedt and Holt each made a touchdown for Rochester, while Allen made a touchdown for Beaver Falls by recovering the ball after Rochester had fumbled, and by crossing the goal line with it. This game very nearly shattered our hopes for the championship of the valley. Then, on the following Saturday, when Rochester defeated New Brighton by the score of 20 to 0, it seemed almost settled that Roches- ter had won the county championship. The lineup was as follows: Rochester-12 Position Beaver Falls-6 Rowe .... L.E. ....Pettler Treglia ... .... L. T. ... ....Kerr Rex ...... .... L . G. . . . .... Allen Kovilinka . . . . .

New Brighton had a good, 'THE 'HGEI2 heavy lighting' team last fall, and the New Brighton people were confi- dent that they would win. It rained all morning, and although it stopped about noon, the mud in the Held was about a half foot deep. This caused the game to be somewhat slow. No long: runs could be made and forward passes were fumbled repeatedly on account of the wet, muddy ball. At the beginning' of the game it appeared as if Brighton would score if they could keep hitting the line. But Beaver Falls braced up, started on the ofensive, and before the first half ended Howard McCandless could not be stopped from taking the ball over Brighton's goal line for a touchdown. The second half was an even match. The ball was worked from one end of the field to the other. but neither team could score. So the game ended 7-0 in favor of Beaver Falls.

Schenley High was outplayed Q-very minute of the game, and had Beaver Falls not made a fumble the score would have been about thirty-two to nothing: But it happened that the local team had only fifteen yards to go to get a touchdown lat the rate they were going they would have had it in a very short timei, when the ball was fumbled and Kahn, the Schenley quarterback, picked it up and ran eighty-tive yards for Schenley's only touchdown. MQC3nd1eSS starred for Beaver Falls, carrying' the ball across the goal line thy-QQ times, while Hamilton played a splendid game and succeeded in Q-gt- ting the other touchdown.

Captain Pettler played either end or fullback this season and de- serves a great deal of credit for the success of the team. He will be missed next year as he graduated in February. Coach Ward said that Beaver Falls had two of the best High School tackles in the state, and we think he was not far wrong. Wilson played right tackle all year and played real football in every game. McGrew, who played the other tackle, outplayed his opponent every time. He had his finger injured in the early part of the season and was out of two or three games. Kerr and Harvey, who played ends, were both new men this year, but they played like old stars. The guard positions were never certain, but Starke, Mitchell, Tilbrook and Boulding were always on the job. Allen played tackle While McGrew was out of the game, and played guard in the other games. He is fairly heavy and not easy to push aside. Mer- riman played a good game at center all season. He was good at get- ting the ball to the backfield men and blocking up the line. McCand- less, the quarterback, proved to be the best ground gainer that Beaver Falls had this year. He made five touchdowns this season. Hamilton, who played right halfback, was the lightest man on the team, but he was the fastest and hardest to tackle of any of the Beaver Falls players. Smith played fullback at the beginning of the season. He was never better satisfied than when hitting the line. Gahles, Watson, Littell, Rabinowitz, Schlotter, Leoffler, and Timmins were substitutes and helped make the first team what it was. McGrew was elected Captain for next year, and it is certain he will make a good one. Kerr, Harvey, Wilson, Merriman, McCandless, Ham- ilton and Gahles are the other letter men who will be in school next year, while Pettler, Mitchell, Starks, Allen and Windraw will graduate. four of the 'X ames layed and all probabilities are that if they had gotten second si g p trials with Washington and Rochester, they would have had six straight victories. But last season is long past, we must forget about it and look forward to a better season next year. The season as a whole was successful. The team won -10l.- T-IE 'HGE12 LETTER MEN Captain Pcttlcr Wilson Mitchell Gahlus McGrew Kerr Merriman Starke Harvey Hamilton McCandless Allen Windram QQ TI-IE FHGEI2 BASEBALL The prospects for a good baseball team this spring are very pleas- ing, although only live of last year's squad remain in school. There are so many new candidates out that there will be no trouble for Coach Heckathorne to pick out a winning team. Howard McCandless was elected at the close of last year's season to captain the team this year. He is one of the best shortstops that the High School has had for some time. The other four men remaining from last year's team are Harvey, Gahles, Bowers and Rabinowitz. The new candidates who are likely to make a place on the team are Hamilton, Harry McCandless, Kerr, Thomas, Littell, Maroney and Schuler. Although no positions have as yet been definitely assigned by the coach, it is thought the lineup will be as follows: Pitchers-Bowers, Schuler and Maroney. Catcher-Gahles. First Base-Harvey or Loeffler. Second Base-Rabinowitz. Shortstop-McCandless. Third Base-Hamilton or Harvey. The outfielders will be three of the following' tive: Harry McCand- less, Littell, Thomas, Kerr and Loeffler. The team this year is fortunate in having such a good schedule as they have. There are ten games to be played, six at home and four abroad. They are playing a number of very good teams, such as Pea- body, Butler and Ambridge. The schedule is as follows: April 26-Alumni at Beaver Falls. April 28-Ambridge at Ambridge. May 3-Monoca at Monaca. May 9-Butler at Beaver Falls. May 14-Monaca at Beaver Falls. May 22-Ambridge at Beaver Falls. May 30 ta. m.J-Rochester at Rochester. May 30 tp. m.J-Rochester at Beaver Falls, June 3-Butler at Butler. June 7-Peabody at Beaver Falls. -104- 4.

V1 T-IE FITGED BASKETBALL The prospects for a good basketball team were not very bright at the beginning, but brightened wonderfully through the season. Mc- Candless and Ague were the only letter men in school, and as Ague was graduated with the January Division, only one letter man remained in school. Loeffler and Merriman were substitutes last year, but this year because of their all around good playing, each found a place on the first team, Merriman as center and Leoffler as forward with McCandless. The two guards had to be picked from new men and Coach Ward decided that Elmer McGrew and Charles Harvey were the two men best quali- fied for those positions, McGrew playing still guard and Harvey roving guard. There were a great many good players out for the team. These served as substitutes. Among them were Hamilton, Schlotter, Rabino- witz and Wilson. December 28, 1918-Wlestinghouse vs. Beaver Falls The Beaver Falls High basketball team went down to defeat before the strong five representing the George Westinghouse at the local gym- nasium by the score of 35-28. The game was close and exciting through- out and the Beaver Falls boys showed that, with a little more practice, they would likely be contenders for the championship honors again this year. As the team had had very little practice, it was hard for Coach Ward to pick the best possible team. Ague started at center but was replaced the second half by Merriman, who secured three field goals while he was in the game. This was the most made by any local player. McCandless and Hamilton also starred for the locals, each getting two field goals. Dorsey was the individual star for Westinghouse. The lineup: Beaver Falls-28 WPSlil1l2Jh0US9-35 McCandless . .. .

The game was fairly close throughout, as the score indicatesg but the last half was much more interesting than the first, because in the first part of the game Beaver Falls had a lead of from 8 to 10 points all the time, while in the latter part of the game Rochester braced up and scored five field goals to two by Beaver Falls. Schlotter, Merriman, and McCandless starred for Beaver Falls, while Murray and Echsteat played best for Rochester. There was a good crowd to witness the game, largely made up of students of both High Schools. The lineup: Beaver Falls-25 Rochester-19 Schlotter .... . . . F. . . . .... Murray McCandless ... .. .

January 10, 1919-Butler vs. Beaver Falls The first league game of the season played at Butler was not a good one by which to judge the ability of the team. Since Butler did not have a football team last season, they started basketball practice fully a month or two before Beaver Falls. It was, therefore, no disgrace for Beaver Falls to be defeated. It is the next thing to impossible to beat the Butler team on its own floor. Few other teams are accustomed to playing on a floor so small and caged in as is But.le1 s. It was impos- sible for Beaver Falls to get a shot under the basket. We only secured two field goalsg those Loetfler made from the center of the floor.

Beaver Falls was unable to get ahead and the game ended 29-20 in favor of Bellevue.

January 17. 1919-New Castle vs. Beaver Falls Beaver Falls High won its first league basketball game of the sea- son by defeating New Castle, on the home Hoor, by a score of 40 to 23. McCandless, Loeffler, and Merriman all played well for Beaver Falls, while the guarding of McGrew and Harvey was the cause of New Cas- tle's low score. The game was rather slow at the start, but about five minutes after the beginning Beaver Falls warmed up, and although New Castle was the first to score, the first half ended 20 to 8 in favor of the locals. The second half was scrappy throughout, and in the third quarter Coach Heckathorn put in some substitutes. The playing of the local forwards was splendid, while the guarding of Beaver Falls astonished New Castle. Two carloads of New Castle rooters accompanied the team here, and a great number of Beaver Falls High students and citi- zens of the town witnessed the game. -- 109 - THE 'HGET2 Following the game light refreshments were served and a regular good time was enjoyed until about midnight, when the New Castle crowd went home, happy though defeated.

January 21. 1919--Butler vs. Beaver Falls Beaver Falls had revenge on Butler for the defeat received at But- ler by winning on the local floor by a score of 34-25. The large crowd which attended the game was well pleased by the playing of the Beaver Falls boys. The game was hard played throughout, with the score fairly even until the last quarter, when Butler began fouling, and thus adding to the score of the locals. There was no individual starring. as every man played his best to win. This victory gave Beaver Falls third place in section three of the W. P. I. A. L., Bellevue being nrst and Butler second. A great deal of credit for the winning of this game and the one with New Castle goes to Coach Heckathorn. who replaced Coach VVard, Mr. Heckathorn coached the team last year, but enlisted in the navy at the close of school. He was given an honorable discharge about the first of the year, and returned to Beaver Falls. Coach VVard resigned as he had too much other work to attend to, and Mr. Heckathorn was given his old job. The lineup: Beaver Falls-34 Butler-25 McCandless . . .. . F. . .

January 29. 1919-Beaver Falls vs. New Brighton In one of the best and most exciting basketball games ever wit- nessed in Beaver Falls, the local team defeated its ancient rival from across the river by the score of 26 to 23. New Brighton scored first, securing seven points before the Beaver Falls boys were able to secure a single score. New Brighton's game in the nrst half was to block all Beaver Falls passes, and the team from across the creek played hard throughout. the first half, which ended 18-17 in their favor. During the second half New Brighton seemed winded from their hard work in the first half, while Beaver Falls came back with more pep than ever. Beaver Falls secured five Held goals to New Brighton's one in the last half. Merriman, the local center, made three of the five, which gave Beaver Falls a boost and helped win the game. One of the largest crowds ever present witnessed the contest. The doors were locked at 7:30 and more than 200 persons were turned away. It was a splendid exhibition of basketball on the part of both teams. This victory gave Beaver Falls second place in the league.

Naval Ordnance basketball team of the Homestead Steel Works by the score of 86 to 17. It was not because the visiting team did not have good material, but rather be- cause they were not coached to use team work, and as a result they seemed lost on the floor. Only four Ordnance players arrived on time to start the game, so Lee Metheney of Beaver Falls played forward until McBride came. Metheny succeeded in getting one field goal, which was as many as any of the visiting players got. McCandless scored the most field goals for Beaver Falls, getting seventeen. Schlotter and Hamilton, who went in in the last half, each got five. VVilson, who replaced Merriman in the last half, scored two field goals.

February 10, 1919-Duquesne vs. Beaver Falls The local team completely outclassed and outplayed the Duquesne High five from the beginning until the end of the game. In fact, in the last half Beaver Falls rested, for they scored only four field goals to eighteen scored in the first half. Most of the substitutes got in during the last half. McCandless was the individual star of the game, scoring sixteen field goals, while Merriman with four and Loeffler with three helped raise the score.

The score was not very large on either side, due to extra close guarding. McGrew replaced Merriman at center and secured two field goals. Liv- erpool's much talked-of center got but two. The game was roughly played and at one time it seemed as though there would be trouble, when Hamilton and Rabinowitz let the Liver- pool players know that they were going to take no rough treatment. However, everything was quieted soon and the game ended 29 to 21 in favor of Beaver Falls. The lineup: Beaver Falls-29 East Liverpool-21 McCandless . . . . . F. . . ....... Coleman Loeifler .... ..

February 18, 1919-New Brighton vs. Beaver Falls As Beaver Falls had defeated New Brighton by such a close score on the local Hoor, the students of both schools were in doubt about the outcome of the game at Brighton, but it was altogether natural that each had a faint idea that their team was going to win. It was not decided until the end of the game which team was really going to win. The score was tied eleven times during the game. The score at the end of the first quarter was 6 to G3 at the end of the first half, 11 to 113 at the end of the third quarter, 18 to 17, in favor of New Brighton. Boren starred for Brighton, making four field goals, fhl-99 of theuj from the center of the iioor. At short shots he is sure, and at long ones he cannot miss. McCandless and Loetfler played best for B9av9riFa115, each securing two baskets. Luck seemed to be against Beaver Falls. for many times the ball rolled around the rim and out. The armory was packed with rooters and crowds were turned away. The outcme of this game made the county championship quite uncertain.

February 22, 1919-Avalon vs. Beaver Falls As Beaver Falls defeated Avalon by only three points at Avalon, the basketball admirers of Beaver Falls expected to see an exciting game on the evening of February 22. They were not badly disappointed, for they saw Beaver Falls run away with Avalon the first half, while Avalon scored 15 points to 9 scored by Beaver Falls in the last half. Mc-Candless and Loeifler played best for Beaver Falls, each scoring six field goals. Beaver Falls had twelve field goals to her credit in the first half and two in the second half, while Avalon secured two in the first half and four in the last half. The score at the end of the first half was 30 to 10 in favor of Beaver Falls. The locals kept ahead throughout the whole game, ending with the score 39 to 25.

February 24, 1919-Ellwood City vs. Beaver Falls Beaver Falls next visited Ellwoocl City for a game with the High School team of that place. The game was played in the new Shelby Tube gymnasium, one of the best floors played upon by our team. Ell- wood City turned out en masse to witness the game, and they had one of the biggest crowds of the season. Quite a number from Hlgh School went with the team and the cheering at times was quite splrlted. The game was fast and clean throughout, and the clever shooting and Hoof work of McCandless and Loeffler astonished the crowd a .number Of times.

February 28, 1919-Bellevue vs. Beaver Falls The local team journeyed to Bellevue and played one of the best games of basketball that they have played this year. It just seemed as though Bellevue had to win and they did by a score of 39 to 34. This game gave Bellevue full right to claim the championship of section three of the league. The Bellevue players, although winners by a mere tive points, had to fight like demons throughout the game in order to oH'set the fine work of the local Eve. McCandless and Loeifler played well at the scoring game, while Harvey and McGrew made it hard for the Bellevue forwards to score. The lineup: Beaver Falls-34 Bellevue-39 McCandless .... . . .

March 4, 1919-Casino Tech. vs. Beaver Falls The next game was one of those one-act comedies. Although the paper had given this team a big' write-up, there was not a large crowd attended. It was a close second to the U. S. Navy team which was de- feated by a score of 86 to 18. The score at the end of the H1-gt half was -116- T-IE PITGER 42 to 8, and, of course, the substitutes got to play at least 3 part of the last half. The final score was 67 to 20.

But Beaver Falls had a better team and they played harder. They showed the spectators some good playing for the last time this year. There was no individual starring, as the whole local team played its best. Merriman made three baskets, while Loeffler and McCand1ess each scored two. There were no substitutions made, as the game was close throughout, and Beaver Falls was never positive of a victory until the whistle blew. The final score was 27 to 22.

They had their minds made up to get back at Beaver Falls. They picked on Merriman especially, for they thought he was at the bottom of all the trouble. Nothing serious happened, however, and Beaver Falls completely outclassed Duquesne on their own fioor. It is said if Beaver Falls had played in every game as they did at Duquesne, they would never have been defeated this season. The lineup: Beaver Falls-50 Loeffler ..... .. F. McCandless . .. . . F.

March 14, 1919-Rochester vs. Beaver Falls The Beaver Falls basketball team closed its season by defeating Rochester, 51 to 27, on the latter's Hoor. Beaver Falls was really ex- pecting a hard game and probably a little trouble. but they were wrong, for they won by a large score and everything went along smoothly. Every member on the Beaver Falls team starred: 1lIcCandless, Loetfler, and Merriman in making Held goals, and McGrew and Harvey in pre- venting Rochester from securing Held goals. So each man contributed in some way to the victory. The iinal score was 51 to 27, The lineup: Beaver Falls-51 McCandless . .. . .

Foul Goals-MCCHHKUQSS. 15 out of 20, Ekstedt, 11 out of The Rochester game closed a basketball season which may rightly be considered very successful. The team won fourteen games out of twenty played and scored 752 points to 526 scored by their opponents. Bellevue scored 39 points to Beaver Falls 34 in one game, which was the greatest number of points scored against the local team in any game this season. Beaver Falls, on the other hand, ran up as high a score as 86 to 18. Captain Howard McCandless played a wonderful scoring game all season. He succeeded in getting 102 field goals in the 20 games played, or an average of about five goals per game. He scored 16 goals in each of two games this last season. Kenneth Loeffler, playing forward with McCandless, was one of the best floor workers and all around play- ers on the team. He was next to Mcilandless in scoring field goals, getting 65 in the 20 games. or an average of over three per game. One of the necessities of a good basketball team is a tall man for center and Beaver Falls was fortunate in having Merriman, who measures about six feet one inch. He was good at getting the jump on the opposing center and was almost always in on the scoring. He secured 45 Held goals in 19 games. Harvey played a good game at roving guard, al- though he is rather short in stature, This was his first year at basket- ball and big things are expected of him next year. He scored six field goals this season. Elmer McGrew played a wonderful game as still guard. He usually starred in every game, and although he only made three field goals all season, he did something else which was just as im- portant-he kept the opponents from scoring. Hamilton as substitute for- ward and roving guard secured nine field goals in three games. Schlot- ter also was substitute forward and scored Hve field goals in three games. Wilson, substituting at center, scored two goals in two games. Houston secured one field goal in three games. Not one of the five regular players was graduated this spring and a championship team is expected next year. The letter men were: McCandless, Loetfler, Merriman, McGrew, Harvey, Bowers. -119- NY' 'WY' THE 'HGEH GIRLS' BASKETBALL January 10, 1919-Beaver Falls vs. Alumni The Beaver Falls girls' basketball team lost its first game of the season to the Alumni five by the score of 18 to 7.

January 18, 1919-Beaver Falls vs. Salem The Salem girls defeated the Beaver Falls players on the Salem floor by the score of 18-2. This was the first attempt of the Beaver Falls team at playing girls' rules, and this fact largely accounts for the one-sided score. During the first half, the Salem team scored almost at will, securing' eight goals from the floor. In the second half the local girls, having' profited by their experience in the first half, guarded so closely that their opponents secured only one goal.

Although the game was played according to girls' rules, it was prob- ably the fastest and most interesting one played this season. Both teams were on their toes from the start, and the game was tied at the end of the first half. In the last half, however, the locals slowly drew ahead, and were leading 12-6 at the end of the game. The lineup: Beaver Falls-12 Sal9m-5 Clyde ........ . . . F. . . ,,,, Church Schaubhut .... . . .

During the second half the Beaver Falls girls seemed to lose their spirit, and at almost the end of the last quarter the score was tied, 8-8.

The Seniors having: won the class meet, went forth confident of gaining their share of the bacon, and the other classes as well were represented. It was a hot day, but one to be remembered as the date on which was held one of the most important. and most successful meets in the history of our school. Beaver Falls succeeded in establishing a new record for the 100-yard dash and the half mile. They scored 58 points out of a possible 110, and won 19 medals out of a possible 28. Wind- ram was the individual star of the meet. He scored 2515 points and won six medals, live of them gold. He broke the scholastic record for the 100-yard dash by doing it in 10 2x5 seconds. McCandles also had a successful day. He won every event he entered, including the quarter mile and the relay, and established the county scholastic record for the half mile by running it in 2:33Xr. McCandles was the second best point ,f:etter for Beaver Falls, with the total of 1255 points to his credit. Boulding was second in the 50-yard dash and the 100-yard dash, and ran in the relay. Much is expected of him in the future as he has two more years in school. The Freshmen deserve much credit for their per- sistence, although they were unsuccessful in gaining any points. New Brighton finished second in the total number of points, scor- ing 22. Monaco, from whom much was expected, finished third with 19 points, while Rochester finished third with 8 points. Beaver was not well represented and made only one point. Beaver Falls scored as follows: 50-yard Dash-First, second and third. 100-yard Dash-First and second. Half Mile-First. 220-yard Hurdles-First and third. 220-yard Dash-First and third. One Mile-Second. 440-yard Dash--First and third. High Jump-Third. Relay-First. -129- W B1 fi! ,xx x i . QQ. , n, -..

THANKSGIVING FOOTBALL CELEBRATION On Thanksgiving evening, to celebrate the victory over our bitter opponent, Brighton, a very' delightful celebration was held in the High School gym. Speeches were made by members of the team and also by Ells Thomas, who was then home on a furlough. Quite a number of people were there, including many of the Alumni. Games and dancing were enjoyed, after which a dainty lunch was served. NEVV CASTLE RECEPTION One of the most important events of the season was the reception held on the evening of the New Castle basketball game. In the pres- ence of a large number of people from our own school the visitors met with defeat. The New Castle students were invited, but judging from appearances, many enjoyed the dance at the Junction more than the reception. However, those who did not dance played games. The for- mer diversion was enjoyed by most of the people present. Everyone enjoyed the lunch which was served. FRESHMAN CLASS PARTY On Friday evening, November 23rd, the gymnasium of High School was a scene of much gaiety. The infants were full grown. and were. under the direction of lVIr. Gensbigler and Miss Pearson. having a party which proved one of the most successful of Freshman parties. After assembling, the guests were invited to the study hall, where they en' joyed a splendid program planned by the social committee. which con- sisted of Thomas Perrott, Helen Ewing, Dorothy Hemphill' F1-31-,gig Inman, and Margaret Cunningham. Mr. Edward Sable. President of the Class, spoke on f'Class Spirit. Mr. Gensbigler, Principal of the High School, and Miss Pearson, Class Advisor. gave short talks, Next, Charles Harvey was elected captain of the Freshman basketball team. The students then returned to the gymnasium. where Victrola music and games furnished amusement for the remainder of the evening. A very delicious lunch was served by the refreshment committee, consist- ing' of James Lytle, Kathryn Moltrup, David Brooks, May Mcpaddenv Clara Bert, and Alberta Mcilafficli. About sixty of the 131355 were present and all expressed their enjoyment of the evening. -132- T-IE TIGER SOPHOMORE CLASS PARTY The Sophomore Class held their class party on February Ist, in the High School gym. The entertainment committee had planned a fine program, and many games were played, among which were Words, Winks, and Fruit Basket. After games had been played until they became monotonous, the eats committee issued a very welcome call. The refreshments were very delicious. For a short while dancing was enjoyed, after which every one departed for his home, saying it was one of the best parties since their entrance into High School. JUNIOR CLASS PARTY On Saturday evening, January 2-ith, 1919, the gay Juniors assem- bled at the High School for a good time. And truly they had a good time, for Miss Soloman, Miss Edna Simpson, Miss Elliott, Mr. Gens- bigler and Mr, Hemphill were present to make things hum. Games, such as Fruit Basket, Forfeit, and Musical Chair were very much enjoyed, and to make things more interesting, the guests were divided into groups or families, such as Snookums family, Dink family, Liberty family, and Mutt and Jeff, and Mike and Ike were not forgotten. This afforded much merriment, especially as Elmer McGrew was Snookums. A very good lunch was served, after which each family was called upon to sing a song. The Liberty family sang a parody on Smiles, Mutt and Jet? and Mike and Ike sang another parody, but it was to the tune of America The Catzenjammers rendered an orchestra selection, which left much to the imagination of the audience. The Snookums ended the program by singing I Was Seeing Nellie Home. Some of the committee early in the evening had quite a time finding the janitor in order to gain entrance to the build- ing, but he had just as hard a time finding them at closing time. SENIOR CLASS PARTY-FEBRL'ARY DIVISION The Senior Class demonstrated their class spirit on Tuesday even- ing, February -ith. They attended in a body the game between High School and the Naval Ordnance from Homestead. After they had helped their own splendid five 'Ago over the top, they adjourned to the home of Agnes Lytle. The Lytlc home was prettily decorated in the class colors, Gold and White. The evening was spent in games and music. Kathryn Snodgrass and Puge Pettler displayed an unusual amount of gray matter by winning the prizes in the guessing contest. The evening was featured by the singing of the class song and medley. Delicious refreshments were served, and the class left thinking their Agnes an excellent hostess. - 133 - 'H'-IE 'ITG PHYSICS CLASS NEW YEAIPS PARTY The members ot' the A Senior Physics Class were pleasantly en- tertained at the home of Jessie Galton on Steffin Hill, December 31st, 1918. The students hiked to the Hill in mud, but the time they spent while at Jessie's home made up for all the rain and mud they encoun- tered on their journey to and from the Hill. Games and music were enjoyed by all. Miss Ester Funk, Domestic Science Teacher, added much to the enjoyment of the evening. A dainty lunch was served by the hostess. As the bells were tolling the death of the old year and the birth of a new one the guests departed, singing on their way. PHYSICS CLASS TAFFY PULL On Thursday evening, January 23rd, 1919, the members of the Physics Class again met. This time at the home of Gladys McClain. A taffy pull was the diversion of the evening. It was more Hpull than taify. However, much enjoyment was gained from this party. for they all were Ugood fellows. A light lunch was served by the hostess. after which the physicists departed. JUNIOR-SEN IOR BAN QU ET The semi-annual banquet by the Juniors, in honor of the Seniors. was held Friday evening, January 31st, 1919, at eight-thirty o'clock in the dining-room of the Grand Hotel. The room was beautifully deco- rated in gold and white, and with daisies, these being the colors and flowers of each class. The faculty table was placed at one end of the room. The smaller tables, tastefully decorated, were arranged for the students. Mr. Atwell presided as toastmaster. Thaddeus Merriman. President of the Junior Class, was called upon, and responded with a toast, To the Seniors. And much like the spoke in the wheel was Puge Pettler in his response on Friendships Lena Brown gave a pleasant prophecy for each member of the class, and Catherine Snod- grass gave a quaint toast on Reminiscence. The Juniors sang a med- ley and their class song, after which Mr. Gensbigler responded with Permits, The Seniors voted this the most successful social event of the season. BACCALAUREATE SER MON The Baccalaureate Sermon to the graduating class of the February division was preached Sunday evening, February 16th, 1919. The Rev. Dr. H. L. Ice delivered a very able one on the subject, A Great Life's Work. One of the graduates, Miss Mildred Thickett, sang very beau- tifully, Oh, Still Night. The invocation was by Dr. N, H, Patterson, scripture reading by Rev. M. F. Smith, and prayer by Rev, C, N. Un- derwood. The benediction was given by Rev. O. J. Shoop. -134- T-IE 'HGEI2 CLASS PLA Y In the Carnegie Auditorium, Thursday evening, February 20th, the February Division gave their class play, The Girl From Upper Seven. The play was given under the direction of Mrs. Josephine Orr. The plot which centered around the coming of Genie McShane to the ranch of her father to take charge of it, was skillfully carried out by the entire cast. Agnes Lytle, in the role of Genie McShane, was very charming and interesting. Mildred Thickett as Rose Hawkins, and Milton Francis as Edward Fielding, played exceptionally well the part of lovers. Eugene Pettler as Steven Malone. Manager of Lower Seven Ranch, exercised a good intiuence in the play as well as on the players. VVilliam Denhart as Francis Hughes, and Charles Scott as Douglas Mason, were typical cowboys The work of Minnie Marcus, Hilda Miller. Harry Latto and Robert Ague produced much laughter. The remainder of the cast were fine. All in all, the plaw was a huge success, and the class deserves much credit for the talent and work which they displayed. After the play the Seniors held a dance and reception at the Tamaqua Club. A large number of the Seniors and their friends were in attendance. COMMENCEMENT The Commencement exercises of the Senior Class. February Division. were held in the Carnegie Auditorium, February 21st. A very interesting program was given. as follows: Invocation . . .

The class boasts of having three returned service men to be graduated with them. They are Harry Latto, Raymond Hawk and Ellsworth Thomas. FRESHMAN RECEPTION On Friday evening, April 4th, the Freshies were joyfully wel- comed into High by a very well attended reception. At precisely eight o'clock the evening's entertainment was begun, and an excellent pro- gram prepared by a committee was executed. An opening speech of welcome was given by Bob Mitchell, Presi- dent of the Council. Responses were given by Gregory Palmer, Vir- ginia Inman and Barbara Hutton of the Freshman Class. These were followed by a speech from Prof. Atwell. To show that the school was not lacking in musical ability there were several musicians brought to light. First a double quartet, com- posed of Bill Watson, John Groth, Ken Loeifler, Keith Allen, Chuck Rabinowitz, Claire Littell, Dick Thomas and Jesse Farkas, gave an excellent rendition of Mustache. A pleasing duet, Will You Re- member, was sung by Gladys McClain and Kenneth Loetfler. SENIOR PARTY-JUNE DIVISION On March 28th, 1919, after the trying exams, the newly-promoted Seniors were pleasantly entertained at the home of Miss Margaret Carnes on College Hill. A goodly number of Seniors were present. Mr. Mayers and Mr. Burns were the only teachers who attended. Games and music were much enjoyed, after which a very pleasant lunch was served by the hostess. SENIOR PARTY-J UN E DIVISION The aggressive Seniors again met on April lst at the home of Miss Miriam Richards of College Hill, for a second get-together party. Only one faculty member was present, but the Seniors managed to enjoy themselves. Some very clever games were played, and ith being the evening of April Fool's Day, some very foolish ones. For pal-tigu- lars ask Evelyn Moltrup or Bob Mitchell. Dancing was also much en- joyed as well as music. And being very digniiied Seniors, they de- parted de tres bonne heuref' -f l36 - T-IE 'HGED TIGER STAFF PARTY Something quite new and startling happened March 28th, 1919, when the Tiger Statl' held a party at the High School. Just the mem- bers of the staff and their immediate friends, together with eight of the faculty, were present. Dancing was quite the division of the even- ing. Some of the faculty were good sports and showed that they could indulge also. Claire Maroney, with the assistance of Miss Solomon, performed marvelous acts of mind reading and kept us guessing. But soon two persons, who have especially well-trained mathematical brains, caught on. They were Miss McKee and Jim Windraw. Miss Edna Simpson presided as the main authority of the evening, for it was to her that everyone went to have everything settled. Much fun was enjoyed from the game, Air, Land, and Sea. A most delicious lunch was served, consisting of ice cream, cherry pie, chocolate, and marsh- mallows. Mr. Gensbigler, economically inclined, extinguished the lights early, and the staff departed. ARCHEAN LITERARY SOCIETY The Archean Literary Society of the High School held its lirst meeting of the year January 30th, 1919, at the High School. The meet- ing was called to order by the President. Bruce Schmunk, and the fol- lowing program was given: Music . . . . Gladys McClain Original Story Margaret Thomasson War Poems . . Elanor Schwenk Reading . . . Emma Ranck Society Paper ..... Elizabeth Fullerton After the program Mr. Gensbigler gave an interesting as well as instructive talk. Since there was no business to be transacted the meet- ing Was adjourned.

FrancisMurray and Margaret Wilkerson Reading- Roosevelt .... Harold Littell Society Paper ...... Mary McGraw A pleasing address by the new President of the Society, Clark Moore, followed, after which several new members were welcomed into th society. Mr. Gensbigler gave a short talk on the Benefits of the Literary Society. The meeting was then adjourned. -137- '11-IE TIGER ORGANIZATION OF FRENCH SOCIETY Mgnday, March 17th, 1919, at four o'clock, the French students met in the High School to organize a presided, and the following officers were elected. French club. Miss Edna Simp- son President-Ralph Unkefer. Vice President-Helen Sponcler. Secretary and Treasurer--Dorothy Seanor. March 31st was decided upon as the date for the next meeting. FRENCH CLUB MEETING On March 31st, 1919, at the High School, there was held the second meeting of the French Society. The meeting was conducted by Presi- dent Ralph Unkefer, who gave ,a fine talk. The name and motto of the club were voted upon. La Societe Francaise was chosen as a name, and On ne pent faire gu en faisant as the motto. After singing Le Marseillaisej' the meeting was ad- journed. RED CROSS PARTY A very pleasant affair of March 14th was a progressive dinner party given by the present members of the executive committee of the High School Auxiliary of the Red Cross, in honor of the President, Agnes Lytle, who was graduated in the February Division of the Class of 1919. The courses were served at the homes of the Misses Helen Sponcler, Cathryne Kennedy, Elizabeth Reeder, and Hazel Gray. Red Cross and St. Patrick's decorations were used for the tables, and the menu was trop bon. After dinner a theater party was enjoyed. The guests were composed of the ex-members of the committee. SENIOR CLASS PARTY The departing Seniors again rally to the call of eats ! At the home of Bruce Lytle, April 23rd, the Seniors and their friends met for another party. Very intelligent games were played in which thev tested their senses. Victrola music was much enjoyed. But when these Seniors get together they don't need much else to have a good time, for they are such jolly good fellows. So, after a very tine lunch, they departed for their homes. Tres tard. COUNCIL PARTY On May lst, 1919, the Council held a party at the home of Robert Mitchell. The council and friends, together with several facultv mem- bers attended. Games and music were the diversions of the evening. -- 138 - T-IE CITGER Th chief attraction, however, was lunch served a la cafeteria. A big surprise greeted all when a large birthday cake which had eighteen candles for Robert's eighteen years was brought forth. After wishing the host many more happy birthdays, the guests departed, each with a piece of cake in his possession. MISS FERGUSON SPEARS AT CHAPEL Miss Maude Ferguson gave a very interesting talk on the work of the American Red Cross in Europe. Her talk was something out of the ordinary, for she did not tell so much of the actual fighting as of the other activities behind the lines. Miss Ferguson's experience en- abled her to tell many interesting incidents which we all enjoyed. She is the only Red Cross nurse on our High School Honor Roll. We are proud of her! JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET The crowning event of the Senior Class social events was a ban- quet given them by their most worthy successors, the Juniors, Friday evening, May 9th, at six-thirty o'clock, in the High School. The gym. was beautifully disguished as a dining-room, decorated in old rose and silver gray, the colors of the Junior Class. The guests were placed at tables which formed a large E lwhich suggested to the Seniors that they would get enoughl. A very sumptuous four-course dinner was served by the Stokton Society of the Methodist Protestant Church. During dinner the High School orchestra added greatly to the pleasure of the bariqueters by their lively and spirited playing. Harold Littell, President of the Junior Class, made an excellent toastmaster, presiding with ease and savoir faire, as the French say. Mr. Gens- bigler responded to the first toast, Names, and showed very logically how we all received our names. Then Hazel Gray toasted Annuals, literary, floral, and amorous. The Senior Girls, proposed by Ralph Unkefer, was answered by a toast from Flora Margret Miller to The Junior Boys. Bruce Schmunk, President of the Senior Class, fittingly closed the toasts with one to The Trials of An Editor. The parodies to Mickey and Ja Da, written and sung by Jesse Farkas and Kenneth Loefier, were very clever and the climax was reached when the panto- mine, The Cannibal and the Skeleton was given by Edward Kerr, Kenneth Loeffler, Jesse Farkas, Eugene Gahles, and Harold Littel, the interpreter. The evening closed with the singing of Till We Meet Again and The Orange and the Black. Everyone said it was the best banquet of them all. - 139 - T-IE 'HGE12 SEN IOR HIKE On a beautiful moonlight evening, about the first of May, a large number of Seniors, chapercned by Miss McKee, Miss Elliott, and Miss Solomon, hiked to the residence of Robert Mitchell's aunt on the Dar- lington Road. Upon arriving, a joyous evening was spent, being fea- tured by a Weiner and marshmallow roast. About evelen o'clock the happy hot-doggersf' after two hours of unequaled enjoyment, started homeward. ANNOUNCEMENTS Dan Cupid, the ambassador from Loveland, has forced an en- trance into Beaver Falls High School. Mr. R. A. Burns, Manual Train- ing instructor, has severed diplomatic relations with Single Life. The fortunate young lady is Miss Bertha Felton, a country school teacher and graduate of Beaver Falls High School. Their future residence will be on College Hill. We wish them good luck in their new venture. From obvious indications and various sources it comes to the knowledge of the people of Beaver Falls High School that Miss Mar- garet Simpson contemplates a plunge into the depths of matrimony. We understand that she has a bright outlook, and we wish her success and happiness. COLONEL JOSEPH THOMPSON SPEARS AT MASS MEETING Colonel Joseph Thompson will long be remembered by the students of B. F. H. S. for his fine speech delivered on the afternoon of May 23rd. A mass meeting was called at three-twenty p. ni. in the studv hall. Professor Atwell introduced Colonel Thompson, and when the Colonel stepped to the platform he was given an exceptionally lively applause. He then described some of the campaigns in which our local boys as- sisted, and many things which were of very great interest to us, He not only spoke of their activities as an army unit, but also related sev- eral of their individual experiences, some of which were very humorous, and some quite the opposite. His speech was just what wb have been looking for. It was a speech that every student could enjoy and one that every student thoroughly appreciated. -140- 1 -Q.: W-'B' an X.., W... .51--3 9 x 1 13 Q - 1 4 . No A ,. Q 1 N R If s vi .

Geneva offers such opportunities in courses of study, laboratory facilities, specially trained teachers and loca- tion, as to make it unnecessary and unprofitable for students of the valley to go elsewhere. Ceneva's record in the tri-state oratorical association, inter-collegiate debate and in athletics is such as to make a strong appeal to prospective students who have am- bitions in any or all of these inter-collegiate activities. Plans are now being considered for a large new dormi- tory for women. R. H. MARTIN, President Beaver Falls, Pa.
