T '41 Q' Srninr Gllaaa 1-Iiatnrg The imniortal hard ot Avon has heen given credit for originating the justly celebrated line, All the worldis a stagcf, The world is a vast revolving play-house on the surface of which comedy, tragedy and farce find room. g One particular spot on this whirling sphere saw in the fall of nineteen-twenty, the introductory how of twenty-one youthful actors across the toot lights oi' that portion hounded hy the confines of Biglerville High School. ,During that first hectic act. with trembling knees and palpitating hearts, we took our respective parts in the activities of the school. Inoculated early with that priceless virus known as school spirit, it was not long before- the first eiiiects ot the dazzling lights wore oft. Time has dimmed for ns many ot the events of that first year. But the corn roast at Heiges' Grove. the beginnings of haskethall. the inaugu- ration of a hasehall team-these stand out as ineoltacahle scenes in which 1924 played a prominent part. With the advent ot the second act. we lost three players but gained one. With almost incredible swiftness, the whirling stage turned its face towards the audience and aga.in 192-L occupied the lime-light. The 'first real etfort to organize a basket ball team was made that season and the success was due to the support given by us as Sophomores as well as by our financial support. We firmly led the verdant Fresh- man into the paths of scholastic righteousness. The triumphs of B. H. S. at the first field meet of the Adams County schools resulted in no small measure to the efforts of 1924. That third act was one long period of unconfined joy. Ursurping the peroga- tives of the carefree Junior, we led them all in social events, culminating in the lavish entertainment of the Seniors at Piney Mountain Inn. However, we never neglected our scholastic work and the high standards of our class room work can he attested to from Mar-i' or l3earie hy any who might he- so curious to inquire. Both our boys and girls brought glory and honor to the school by starring on the athletic teams. Actions speak louder than wordsi' runs the old adage and a review of the events at old B. H. S. will hear out that our actions certainly made a noise. We are now presenting our finale. With unahated speed, we a1'e nearing the great day of days. The luster of our fame shines ever the brighter thru the last remaining months of our sojourn in this small drama of school life. We are proud to have heen members of 1924. Without boasting, and with gracious modesty, we can truthfully say that we have ever held high the colors of our school and that without 192-L. Biglerville High would not shine nearly so brightly in. the school firmament. And without dear old Biglerville High. its traditions and spirit, 192-1 would have heen sadly lacking. Au Revoir but not good-bye. l A ' M. L. W. f2ll
