In our childhood days we were guided by our parents or guardians. Before long we find ourselves becoming restless, and seek to make our own pathway. We soon find ourselves in the midst of High School life. Little do we realize that these are our hoppiest days. After they are gone we try to turn back, but in vain, for Father Time takes us by the hand and leads us into College life. dmiummmmmtdm..mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm We stand at the door of the world awaiting applause. Alas! 9 again we are disappointed, and find that the one way to gain fame g is by the sweat 0f the brow. Still confident, however, we plunge :3 into the jumble of life with strong determination. The roadway 2-: becomes unusually rough and steep: time and again we stumble, but rise again, until, carewom and exhausted, we reach the top. We have published this annual that you may take it with you when you conclude your high school days. We hope that when you get caught in Lifels whirlpool, with hair turning grey, as you sit and meditate, you will find joy and rest in turning these i pages, and recalling your days in old Ben Avon High. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmt. a : a H mm. 1 n n n t mmm q 7mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm x , Fem 5:.th .. a5 2 t. e.

One holding this position is expected to please the schgol board, the faculty, the parents, and the student body at the same time, whlch is almost impossible. Nevertheless we feel that Mr. Heinig has always done that which is most beneficial for the student body. imm. mm r nmmmi' imm'n'imnmml Wm iw rm?

Numbered among those. leaving the school this year :11'0 six football lettemien, three basketball letter-men, seven basketball letter-gii'ls and the manager of eavh of these branches of athletics, as Well as the tennis manager. Two cheerleaders, both of them highly accomplished in acrobatic stunts, will also be missed next year. In September, 1920, 0111' Ship 01' State sailed up the Hgrade, onto the nHigh7y seas, with Fritz Stout in command. XVei'e we humble and tgreen' in that first year of our voyage? No indeed! We were too exveptional a group to be ignored by upper classmen. XVe held a weiiler roast that year which was voted suwexsful as a first social activity. During the second and third years of our voyage we miitilined to have the same ttStoutly and able leader. As Juniors we had a dance for ourselves and a movie and bake sale to raise money for our prom?y We sold vainly at all our games to increase the fund, with the result that we held a wonderful ltpromll for the Seniors at the Shamiopin Club in June, 1923. That same year we these Very good-looking class rings. But the waters are not always smooth. In November 01 our third year a most esteemed class-mate, Ellot Bunting, reached the end of his voyage 0n the high seas of life. As Seniors the captaincy of our ship changed hands when Tom MavGregm' was chosen to guide our vessel to harbor. As a class we held a very suwessfnl dance about the first of the year. tVe also gave several tmI-dances to raise money and sponsored the production of nH. M. S. Pinaforefl Our class play, tt'l'hc Importance of Being Earnest, was an exceedingly clever 0110. This year a Student Comieil was started, to which the Seniors contributed president and Vice-presidmit. This, in brief, is what we have accmnplished, but the very members of the class are our chief asset. There are usome that are brilliant and sume that are tall, some that are clever and some that are small. We are so closely linked to the school that not only can we say that some of the Juniors will miss some of the Seniors, but that all of the Seniors will miss all of B. A. H. S., and we hope B. A. H. S. will .miss us. 0. H.

We were divided into two groups in the first grade, half under Miss Etta Berger and half under Miss Watt. At the end of the first grade, we began t0 separate, some of us going ahead and some dropping behind. This has happened every year, but the main group is the same. The next year we were under Miss Louise Berger who had charge of the second grade; from there we went to Miss Ethel B. Hetriek who taught the third grade. Our chief interest in the first and second grade was saving our pennies to buy Thrift Stamps. In the third grade we helped win the Liberty Bell contest for the grammar school. Nothing else of particular interest occurred in the first three years of our schooling except that we increased in wisdom and stature every day. During the third year we had been looking forward to the fourth with much interest because then we were to begin departmental work. At first :E: we were a bit confused as we were not used to going about from room to? 4:: room, and having so many different teachers, but we finallybeeame accustomedi 13 to arriving at the right place with the right book and decided we liked it. 3' 5 Athletics were organized in the htth grade when we had a class base- E; ball team. Each year since then we have had one which has been more 01' 5E! less successful. :5: We now entered the sixth grade where we felt our superiority to the 22: rest of the grammar school. The year passed pleasantly and uneventfully. a At the last part of the year we had a picnic to celebrate the. fact that we I were going over into the new building; During our grammar school days we had the misfortune to lose two of our members by death, Frank XVilhehn, in the second grade. and Frederick Storr, in the sixth. September, 1923, found us members of the Junior High, which marked the greatest event of our youthful careers. We entertained the Home and School Association one night by giving a geography project. The Junior High had a very successful basketball team; the seventh grade claiming the star player, Theodore Reed. We had our first class party in February, which was enjoyed very much; 'On VVashing'tonts birthday some of the mem- bers of the class gave a play which was said to be one of the best ever given by a seventh grade. Although it was thought that we were too young to have student govern- ment. at first, yet we have shown that it is a great success and we hope to prove that we can beat the eighth grade in that respect. Our history is brief because we are only halfway through school, but in the next six years we expect to make some interesting history for B. A. H. S. J. A. H.

The E team won four games, tied two, and lost two. The last were played at the l3 first of the Season. After the team had this setback it settled down to play E wonderful football for the remainder of the fall. Glassport and Swissvule were V ' able to down its only after a hard struggle. In these two games, as in most of the others, the team was outweighed by its opponents. Although light, the teamigradually outclassed heavier opponents in speed and in general knowledge of open football, as shown in the last six games. In the Avalon game, especially, the boys showed their fighting spirit. They won the game in the last few minutes of play. Much credit is due the boys who composed the second team, for without them the varsity would not have done so well. Many boys who knew they had no chance to make the first team went out in order that the varsity would have opposition in practice. Credit is also due Coach Smith for developing such a team. f s l l I i .Those who will be lost by graduation are :eCaptain MacGl'egor, Ander- son, Stout, Stinson, and Wolfe. With Boggs as captain for next year the v outlook is, however, very promising. J. F. B. ,mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm'm Thirty-seven w: WWIWJWWWWWWWWL'JWWWWWWAQEJWWL'JML'J L'JL'JEIL'MWUWW', a a Though last years football season opened with but live letter men, a fine bunch of players was developed; so that when the season. closed every-fellow that earned a B had something to be proud of. The llst of these follows, together with their outstanding points. . Thomas MacGregor, who captained the team, was. noted for his fight. Slight injuries kept him from a few quarters but once in the battle agaln he showed no fear of anything. . Pete Boggs cannot receive too much credit. He could pass and kick almost to perfection. His speed when tearing around the opponents end was something worth seeing. To learn of Petels spirit one need but Ireacl the ae- count of the Avalon game, when he saved the day by his determination. His work was so appreciated by the fellows that he was unanimously elected captain for next season. Emerson Stinson started to play on the squad in his sophomore year. He was a leader of the scrubs for two years. Though he never entered a game during this time he stuck to practice with the determination to earn a letter or bust. He not only made a letter in the last season of his high school life, but also won a name as a real football player. His best work was done on right end, though his playing in the backfield was outstanding, par- ticularly in the Coraopolis game. Arthur Anderson is a born football player. His whole athletic interest is in this one sport. As manager he not only prepared a tough schedule but also helped the team to come out ttat the big end of the horn,H by his skillful work as halfback. Fritz Stout held a position which requires quickness, thought, and ac- curacy. As center he proved his possession of these accomplishments. He was also especially noted for his'good defensive work. This ability came partly through his experience as tackle, the previous season. Dlunny Toy, although only a Sophomore, drew many cheers from the by- standers for his quick work as halfback ton the offensivel, and his fearless tackling while on the; defensive. At one game he did so well that he was car- ried from the field on the shoulders of enthusiastic students. George Evens, in the right guard position, was always on his toes, ready to meet anything. ' Bob McCabe, who filled the right tackle position, was a hard man to pass. He seemed to have a liking for hugging a man around the legs, and watching him flop. John Snively has left school, but he will not be forgotten, because of his ability tonnake holes, and to pull a man down, while playing left guard. Bob Ross made the left side of the line hard to get around, being always prepared fort anything. Kike VVlolfe, though never staging a brilliant show, or spectacular per- formance, was always on hand for good hard work, and steady plugging. L1ggie Hunt started the season in the backfield but, feeling lost, returned to his old position as left tackle. Like all the rest he did his best to win for Ben Avon High.

Bob Scandrett showed a wonderful spirit throughout the season by his loyal attendance at practice, and his work as a sub. Among the games in which lie played was the Avalon game in which he took Pete,s place for two quarters, filling the position well. A writeeup of the football season would not be complete without the mention of those men, all of whom were assets to the team. Mr. Smith, Head Coach, deserves all the credit that may be given the team for its team-work and general knowledge of football. He holds a hard position as he is blamed for all defeats, and receives very little praise for Victories. Nevertheless he is always on the job, doing his very best to make his team a success. Mr. Hollenbaek acted as assistant coach. He seemed to get a lot of pleasure from coaching the scrubs, many of whom were freshmen and eighth graders. Without the opposition given the first team by Mr. Hollenhack's scrubs, the season would not have been a very great success. Mr. Irwin was not officially connected with the team but was a constant help and inspiration. At almost every game. Mr. Irwin was preseiitealways encouraging 0r cheering the fellows. The first thing heard in the locker room after a game was his complimentary i-eiiiarks. If it had not been for the dinner and meeting at his home, there would not have been nearly as much hope of beating Avalon. It was then that every fellow determined to beat Avalon, or bust. It was this spirit, carried from that meeting through the school and borough, that made it possible for the fellows to fulfill the highest ambition of the football season. J . L. VH.

For yesterday afternoon Ben Avon wound up its season in a blaze 0f glory by defeating its much heavier and aiieieiit rivals from Avalon. The story of the triumph reads like fiction, for the hero role was played by one who was kept out of the game for three quaiters on. account of. illness, only to be injected in the closing minutes of the game to give his team a Victory. For three quarters, Avalon and Ben Avon fought to a 0-0 stfiiidstill. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Avalon, gaining. on the exchange 0t punts and by a long end run, placed the ball 011 the four-yai'd liiie. Here the Ben Avon line, liavmg held on two previous occasions when the goal line. was threatened, gave .way .Wlltfll Fisher slipped off tackle for a touchdown. 'Aval-on failed to luck goal.

Boggs, standing on the 12-yard line skirted Avalonts right end, and behind perfect iiitei'lereiiee crossed the line for a touchdown. With the score tied, this same Boggs, writhing in pain from a recent attack of pleurisy, dl'OkaiCked a water-soaked ball between the posts and over the cross bar for the winning point. Shortly afterward the game ended. With victory over their ancient foe a fact, the Ben Avon students paraded through the Avalon streets amid cheers and wild yelling. . , A Sharing honors with Boggs in the game should be mentioned Stout tor his defensive work.

They 10st to Sw1ssva1e at Sw1ssvaie, Swissvale at home, Bellevue at Believue, Edgewood at Ben Avon, and Ben Avon at KVilkinsburg. The most interesting of these games was the one with Swissvale on our floor. This was a hotly contested game, both teams alternating tor the leading: score. A few seconds before the, end of the game the score was 26-26. but a boy from Swissvale hung a pretty shot while the tiniekeeperts whistle blew. making the final score 28-26 in favor of the Visitors. In this game Boggs and Stout shared scoring honors for Ben Avon while Paulie. played well for Swissvale. We added a victory to our series of defeats when we played Shadyside at Ben Avon. At the end of the first half the score was 17-13 in favor of the Academy boys-but spurred on by a desire for chicken and wat'ttes and the chance for their first victory, the home boys staged, a, comeback in the last half, hanging thirteen baskets in quick succession during this period. Bogg's and Stout were the high scorers tor the local boys while Harris was the star from the Academy. We took another Victory from the Shadyside boys on their own floor. The Shadysidians played a better defense in this game, the game ending with the score 23-12. The next thrilling episode of the season was the game played with Aspinwall in the home gym. It was a fast game from the very beginning: with Aspinwall in possession of the ball they were able to sink three pretty ones in quick succession. The tables turned when Stout caged a beauty. quickly followed by two more from Mace and Burson. The quz-irters.ended in a. deadlock, 8-8. Ben Avon took a spurt in the last half, maintaining an easy lead in the last quarter. Fine shooting, passing, and tive-man. detense Were features of the game. Mace, the star of thegaine, caged two field goals,'while Lang was the main support of the up-river team. We closed our season with Avalon on our floor. They came down in the best of form to play a team they knew would be ready for them. It was a thrilling game throughout, and as rough as close rn'als Will plav, ' Avalon won. Dobler was their star performer, with our Stout and ,Maee playing well. Letters were presented to the following playerszeBoggs, Burson, Mace, MacGregor, Stinson, and Stout. Among those who played some varslty baSketball and did not earn a letter are Crot't, Ross,'Bnnt1ne', andrHunt. The reserves, under the leadership of Jim Bunting. were not able. to Win a a game, being handicapped by size, welght, and keen opposltion. Bunting and Hunt played well for the second team outfit. The team must be commended for its fight and school spirit.

E ; There were three outstanding characteristics: few close games, almost every E1 game being a walk-away; no lack of victories; and a spirit of exception- g ally good sportsmanship. The first two features made the season a success E3 from a spectacular point of view; the last one made it a source 01' pride E3 to the coach and the school. The Aspinwall game, abroad, was a cause of much sorrow to everyone, for although the girlsy team was a little too much for themeat that timee and they came home with the seasonls first defeat, this defeat created a mottozettThey shall not win at Ben Avon. Did they? Look at the score and you can see what happened! This shows the HNever Say Die'l spirit that the Ben Avon girls had during the season. In the Rochester game, at home, the superfine playing of the girls- caused much joy. Bettyls field shots went into the basket almost uncannily from any place on the floor and the game ended 51-19, Ben Avon! The Ben Avon team played fifteen games with first class teams of sur- rounding communities. The forward positions were well held by Betty i Trimble and Virginia Kiser. The good team-work 0f the two girls, together with Bettyts brilliant shots, went far to make the season the success it was. The guard positions as played by Alice Stirling, captain; Margaret Batehelor, and Charlott Moore, could not have been more capably filled. We do not know whether Alicels red hair had anything to do with her aggressive spirit I and excellent playing, but certainly we do know that once Alice got her hands on the ball, which was much too often for the opposing forwards, it came down to her own forwards with astonishing speed. The teamwork between Alice and Margaret was also specially good. Ruth Frazer, as center, was aided by Ruth Aston, side-eenter and ex- ponent of perpetual motion. Their speed and passing cannot be too highly praised. The substitutes, Ruth Harnish, Margaret James, and Charlotte Hare, did much 'to aid the team in its victories. The championship of the North Boroughs went to the Ben Avon team and, consequently, it was in the runners-up for the County Championship. Edgewood and Robinson Township were the other two contestants for this honor. The first of the series was played between Edgewood and Ben Avon on March 17th. Although the galleries at the old Carnegie Tech gymnasium Were almost completely filled with Ben Avon enthusiasts, and although the girls did their best to bring home the victory, the game, sad to say, ended With the score 15-11, Edgewood. 5 due to the excellent coaching of Miss Lloyd and the tine , girls, the season will always be eonsiciereg a .

Two hundred and htty enthusiastic rooters followed the team in special street cars, just about crowding the handful of Edgewood students out of the balcony of the 01d Carnegie Tech gymnasium. As cheer after cheer was sent out, every Ben Avonitek chest swelled With pride. Each Ben Avon girl practising 0n the floor. clenched her fists, and shut her jaw tight with a determination to win for dem- 01d Ben Avon High, and those loyal fellow-students in the balcony. When the Whistle blew each player stood in her placetense and alert. Al- though both teams fought hard there. Was very little scoring; in the first half. One field goal was made by each team, and the score was' 5-3, Edgewoodts favor. Both teams came back into the second half With more determination than before. Ben Avon evened the count- Edgewood gahwd two pohnse-Ben Avon todtthe had by one pmnn and Edgewood tied the score.

Although athletic contests engage onek attention for a time there is an annual event in the school calendar that brings forth much energy and ability. The Oratorical Contest is propagated for the stimulation of student interest in the literary world. The twelfth yearly contest was held in the high school auditorium on Friday evening, March 7. The number who competed was a survival of the fittest from the grilling elimination of the week before. Many excellent recitations were given before a large and interested audience. By the decision of the judges first place for the boys was awarded George Cote, whose selection was Mark Anthonyie oration. First place for girls was won by Ruth Aston, who gave HA Murdel'erk Confession? by Edgar Allan Poe. Second prizes were awarded Chall- lotte Wood and Thomas Pomeroy, whose selections were, respectively, the Soul of the Violin, and Prentisse thafayette. 13- A- ttrmmmmm.

'fitfty themes were submitted, : many of them excellent. Eight of the students tried out in a preliminary to represent Ben TOM POMEROY Avon in a district contest. Thomas W, Pomeroy was unanimously choxen as its representative. Accordingly on Saturday evening, April the twenty-sixth. the re- presentatives of seven schools met in the auditorium of the' Belle. Vue High School to compete for the honor of representing- the district in the Allegheny County contest. Thomas Pomeroyk oratioh, original and unique in its production, and the pleasing manner m Which he delivered it, W011 for him the first place. All the more re- markable is the fact that he was the youngest representative in the district contest and in the county contest also. ' Memorial Hall was the scene of the contest of Allegheny County on the evening of May the second. Eight districts were represented. -It is not an easy matter to speak in an auditorium sttch as Memorlal Hall, but Thomas proved himself an orator in the ntakmgu The gener- ous applause which greeted him at the close of 1113 ot'atlott and the pOpular sentiment expressed should make Ben Avon ngh teel proud YEN I .mmmm .mmmr V mmmmmm'm 717:1 w 7.1mm J' mmmmmmmr. : mmmmmmm' Jf'gjn Dtrillmh'a.

If we had had it only one night the chapel would have been filled to overtiowing. Instead of this we had a rather small but appreciative audience on Thursday, May 22, and a slightly larger one the next even- ing. Naturally the performance on Friday was better than that of the previous night, but it was well played both evenings and received its proper applause. The cast. selected by the members of the Senior Class, was exceptionally good and proved its dramatic ability beyond doubt. Emerson Stinson, as Earnest, played his part admirably and was ably seconded by Charlotte Hare. Chester Laughrey, a butler, raised the biggest laugh of the evening. Margaret Biateheloris new bass voice gave the proper aristocratic impression. Ruth Aston and Fred Stout were evenly matched as to easy stage manners and attractive depiction. play. The first act takes place in the morning room of a London apartment. For the furniture for this scene, we owe thanks to several people in the town. The second scene was specially difficult. It was that of a garden and the problem of securing a background was not easy of solution. But here Mrs. Breese, our art teacher, and her helpers came to our aid. Due to their untiring efforts we were sup- plied with scenery which rivaled the best to he obtained.

Carry is met at the station by W'ilbur Budd and they dine at a large hotel; After lingen'ng too long, they make a mad rush for the station. Wilbur sends a porter to the baggage room with their checks. Unnoticed in the excitement, the bags are exchanged. Wilbur leaves about the same time on another train for a college not more than fifty miles from the one to which Carry is going.

He takes one off under the table. The mascot, a large dog, carries off his shoe. VViIbur hides under the table until the guests have left, then escapes out of the window. He goes to his room. He finds a letter from Carry telling of a party she is to attend. He takes her bag and sets off for a certain college.

She is treated as temporarily insane, and a letter written to her parents. Wilbur, faint from hunger, only partially rouseious, lies, moaning in the cellar. One of the girls hears him. The school is mystitied. The dean starts to investigate. Curry thinks of TVilbur. She promptly pretends to faint.

MARGARET J AMES UJWL'JWL'JUL'JWL'JWL'JW uwwwww 3 wwwwwww WUWWQWUWUWWNWWWWWWWWW 7726 Boamemng In the early seventies a freckled-faced lad of twelve had his head of stiff, orange-colored hair pushed into a ruin-harrel by another young felluw ot' the same age. Now this might be thought, by some, to be sufficient punishment for snatching an apple from the hands of a young lady of ten. But the second boy, who had black hair, also had a determined little chin, so he ended the chastisement of his playmate by changing- the mlur of one at his blue-gray eyes, and making him promise to let t'hertt alone. The maiden herself was a shy little thing, not yet very mueh interested in boys, except as tormenters. Consequently she was somewhat surprised when her wrong was avenged by one. Thereafter, she smiled at hlaek-eyed Larry and ignored the vanquished Jed. The next evening Larryis father was shot by Jed's older brother, after a quarrel about the boys. The winds of public feeling- fanned the hauling anger into a raging feud. All the countryside was armed. As the boys grew older, Marion Rutledge wound her two yellmv hruids around her dainty head and pinned her curls out of sight. She lowered hei- skirts and wore shoes and stockings. At eighteen she became Mrs. Lawrence Hhillips, and the Rutledges were made certain members of the Phillips army. Then, merely for spite, Jed married Peggy Henry, nne 0t Marion's rivals in beauty. Down through the generations swept the consuming fiames of revenge, Wiping out sons, husbands, fathers, until but one son was left in each family. These were Tom Scott, a notorious trouble maker, and Ted Phillips. a revenue agent of the United States government. A Year after he had received his appointment, Phillips, who had vainly tried to make a friend of his enemy, captured a still, run by him. The culprit escaped, and was thought to have left the vicinity. However, he had slll'X:1Veld many, scrapes With Phillips, and the 121w, and he knew several obseme hiding-places.

Rather astonished, the child backed away, for he knew that he was not allowed to go near this man unless in the presence of an older person. He had heard his father address this man on the street, but all that the child could obtain in regard to the manis identity was that he did not like ttFatherW and that he lived on the hill at whose foot stood the small village. However, he had seen men bring wagons filled with such bottles to his father, and had seen him empty them into the stream which flowed past his home. So he held out his hand, and started to take the bottle to his father. Hold on thar! cried Scott, Hwhere ye goinITI HIlm takinI it to Father,-H explained the child. ttYer pap give it to me. He wants you should taste it. IVs not. what, ye think it is. Yer ma made it and wanted to know, does you like it? Hesitating' a little, the boy drank, frowned, smiled, and drank more. Let me taste it, Joe; I want some, too,,, begged the little one. Holding it steady, Joe let his brother drink. Then he drank some more himself. ttUm, tha'tIs good. I never had that before. HI guess I better take it back now. Yer seems to like it. . the man took the bottle, a rather frightened look on his face, for he hap- pened to remember something. Without another word he vaulted the back fence and disappeared, just as the mother called the children. ttGod! he whispered, HI brought the wrong one. Ilm sure glad I didnt drink none. ttMother, why did that man t reached the house; ' ' UI dontt know What his name is. It 's that maneoh, mother, everything's turning fround! And now its all black!

' Once a month throughout the season two representatives from each Hi-Y club in the city met in the ttCentral Yl, in Pittsburgh. Here such subjects as membership drives, to include all the clubs in the eitv. were discussed. The representatives from the Ben Avon eluh Were John Snively, and George Wolfe. Early in the falli there was given a t'Father and Son banquet. Every boy 1n the J1111101' and Senior Hi-Y's brought his father. making more than three hundred fathers and sons. In November, the annual Older Boysy Conference was held at Greens- burg. The four hundred fifty boys who attended came from all parts of western Pennsylvania. Chester Laughrey, Ralph Mace. Robert Scandrett. Emerson Stinson, and George Wolfe were the representatives from Ben Avon. In December, the club had the honor of entertaining the Girl Re- serves at one of its meetings. Supper was served as usual. and the reports of representatives from the Older Boys' Centerenee were g'lVGn. HMother,s Night was held in February, the only extra feature being clean table cloths. In March, M. U. F. week was observed all over the state of Pennsyl- vania. Thousands of high school boys had heart-to-heurt talks w1th tine, intelligent and experienced business men. The boys who were mten viewed profited greatly. The Hi-Y club has done nothing novel during its past seasen.
