There, in the gym our teams have played. While thru the halls there rang a cry— And every wall would echo back The hurrahs and cheers for Bradford High. What lots of fun we used to have! We smuggled in good things to eat. We joked, we talked, we laughed, we played. And gave no thought to time so fleet. Yet there were days that weren’t so gay When we waited in fear, for our exams; Or “went to the office” where always it seems We went in like lions and came out lambs. But after all, they were happy days. And really no matter how hard we might try We can’t or won’t at least, forget Those pleasant days at Bradford High. 3 Jhe 1926 'Resume C A T I O rO our Parents whose interest has always been with us and whose encouragement and support have enabled us to publish this Annual, we the Class of ’26, lovingly dedicate this, the fifth volume of the “Resume” N 1016 5 DOG he 1926 Res u me Annual Staff Editor-in-chief Assistant Editor Business Manager Assistant....

Other localities have looked with envy upon Bradford because of our splendid and successful schools. We feel that the success of our school has been due to the hearty cooperation of our School Board, parents, faculty and students. Out teachers have always expressed their desire and willingness to aid and direct us in our every endeavor. What is more, they have never seemed to grow weary of co-operating with us and helping us, individually, as a class or as a school. They have worked unsparingly for the welfare of the school and have been instrumental in gaining for Bradford the position it now enjoys. So, we the Seniors of ’26, wish to extend to you, the faculty of Bradford High School, our sincerest and deepest gratitude for all the kindness and consideration you have shown us. 12 13 President Vice-President Secretary.....

Senior Class History A SUNSKT marks the close of a day; just so does graduation mark the close of a high school career. Whether that sunset he colorful and glorious depends upon the atmosphere which the day has provided for it. Whether a graduation means much or not depends upon what has preceded it. As Seniors, we stand at the “sunset hour” thoughtfully considering what the day has brought. Our “Day” began for us, as a class, in September, 1922 when fifty-one, half-shy, half frightened boys and girls entered Bradford High School. Being “Freshies” we were the target of many practical jokes. However, attempts to initiate us proved that we were fully capable of defending ourselves. After we had become fairly well accustomed to the daily routine of class work, study and recitation, a meeting was called for the purpose of organizing. By that time the upper classmen had ceased to terrorize us and our “day” had begun to have a brighter aspect. Although our class took some part in the affairs of the school, our first year was mostly spent in becoming acquainted as a class and in laying the foundations for a greater enthusiasm for the next year. Having successfully served our apprenticeship for one year, we returned, as sophomores, with renewed spirit and energy. We vigorously entered on a period of varied activity. Deter- 20 10 Uhe 1926 Resume mined that our crucial year should not find us wanting, we studied and worked very diligently and thus showed to other classes that we were not to be daunted by difficulties. Our pursuit of knowledge was pleasantly interrupted occasionally by such events as the Hallowe’en party and picnic. The upper classmen, perhaps, did not pay us as much attention as they had in our Freshman year, yet we felt more a part of the high school and began to understand a little better what it meant to be a student of Bradford high school. Our Junior year was a happy one. While the Freshmen were adjusting themselves to high school life, the Sophomores drudging and the Seniors working on the Annual and discussing what they would do when they graduated, we Juniors were left free to enjoy the life at its fullest. Yet our Junior year was not without its responsibilities for we had our reputation and honor, as well as that of our school, to uphold. In the spring came the Junior play “ Backbone which was a marked success. The Junior-Senior Reception proved to be a very joyous event with which to close our Junior year. All in all, our Junior year was one rich with experience, good fun and comradeship. And now we have come to the “sunset hour”—and it is passing only too rapidly. We have made mistakes; there have been clouds, even storms, but, viewed as a whole, our “day” has been filled with beauty and gladness and the scene before us is glorious. However, we should not wish to leave the impression that our sunset” is beautiful only because we have received—quite the contrary, for the most radiant hues are there because we have been able to give. Our contributions to the high school this year have been many and varied. Our class has furnished a large share of the athletic material for the high school teams. 1 he five Seniors on the football team and the three on the basketball team have helped immeasureably in making the fine records for Bradford High School. However, our interests have not been merely athletic. In the realm of music our class has made some valuable contributions to the high school, hour of the girls sextet are meml ers of our class. Of those who took part in the Operetta, “The Windmills of Holland , the major portion were Seniors. Our class is well represented in the orchestra and we are proud of the fact that the leader of the orchestra is a Senior. Our class has not lost sight of the value of scholar-ship as our records show. Throughout our four years in high school we have generally stood highest or second highest in the percentage of honor students. Having taken such an active and enthusiastic part in the high school activities we are made to feel that Bradford High School has become a part of us. She has given us valuable contributions but just what have been the invisible gifts received from these four years it is for the future to reveal. We have learned to love Bradford and all for which she stands. It is not without reluctance that we give up our high school life, yet we feel that with our background of experience we are more ready to meet the challenge of life. I hough we shall be far from Bradford she will be with us—in our memories, in our hearts, and as a part of us in our hopes and aspirations. 21 Name Favorite Expression Ambition • Distinction Where We Shine What Doing When Alone Probable [ Profession 3 Adrian Albright Apple Sauce To get an A in Physics His Pipe Sleeping Dreaming Jack of all T rades Mildred Bashore For Evens Sake To be Herself Black Hair Snappy Eyes With Lecture Course Folks Concentrating Pedagogue Kirby Beardsley I Don’t Know To Get a Date Short Trousers Cutting up Making Candy College Prof. Dale Berkebile Oh Bologna To make a name for Himself Asking for Dates In the Chevie Thinking of the Absent one Banker Klsie Boyer You Silly That’s a Secret Straight A’s Making Speeches Reading Poetry Public Speaker Roy Carter Gee for Heck To Grow 6 ft.

We began this year the right way by taking part in all kinds of activities. The next year we organized our class as soon as possible. We selected James Stichter as our president who soon proved his ability to handle the job. Our class showed its ability to live up to our motto: “We can because we think we can” by having a fairly large number on the Honor Roll throughout the entire year. Shortly after school began this year we organized again, selecting James Stichter for President. Our class has accomplished many things in the past but we are determined to do even more and better in the future. 24 1926 Res v me Alfred Helen Donald Prances Wax 3 roujzx Timmerman Looker Teeter Weaver Bernard Alberta Lyons Eller Raymond Looher Fay Ha an John Eruznba Glenda Hockett Jasper Miller P2oren.ce Keller Pauline Thomas Leroy 3a shore Leona.

There were many anxious glances cast about as the Freshmen Class began the perplexing routine of high school life. The higher classes soon learned that ours was a class to be respected. Another race was won for a general rule these students were promoted and ready to enter the Sophomore class. Various studies were taken up by the students each of us, drawing the conclusion “The higher we rise, the more work in view. ” Athletics has taken a big part of our time. Many of the football team were Sophomores and as football gave way for basketball, the class places members on this team, also. No doubt when track comes again, B. H. S. will find some valuable material in our class. We are represented in other student activities as well. It is the noble ambition of the class and its loyalty to its beloved school which causes this vast display of spirit. 26 192.6 Resume Dale BaoiLl Th Shear ffout on Hihe Wade Worn bold Glich.

Miss Warvel Class History DEAR! just think, asking a Freshman to write a class history when there isn’t any to write about. Of course, I suppose I could tell you that we were discovered in September, 1925; that originally there were forty-five of us; that as usual there have been some gains and some losses, but I’m sure you would not find such information interesting. We have not even had any wars or rumors of wars. We understand that a few dates have been made, but since none have been recorded, none can be published. Incidentally, one day just for the fun of it we met and organized. They call us “Green Freshies”, but just the same we have made a few discoveries. One is that a fish-worm has no ends and that shoe heels are made of lumber. We have also discovered a new kind of a bug in Biology. This is called the Arithmetic Bug. It adds to our misery, subtracts from our pleasures divides our attention and multiplies like—oh! I can’t express myself. 28 Ell] = Jhe 1926 legume 0 Roxze Afilfer Darnel Martin moa truer 'Horner Wolfe Morion Berry Mary Berkebilc Hotner Cencebauyh Mory Bulah My ilah Patrick Charles Dunham.

The French and Rotary Clubs, which have been continued from other years, have proved such a factor in stimulating interest in these subjects, that they are likely to become high school customs. We point with pride to our Choral Club and Orchestra each of which have presented many entertaining programs to us. The Agriculture Club has been very successful. Although this is the first year for the Girl Reserve Club it has already proven its worth. Since high school organizations are a reflection of the high school itself we are proud of the fact that our school has organizations of such high quality. 10 0C I Jhe 1926 Resu me Lincoln Literary Society 'T'HE two Literary Societies have not been very active organizations this year. The chief reason for this is that other organizations have arisen to suppress the literary societies and their activities have been neglected to a great extent. The chief work of the societies was the selling of Lecture Course tickets early in the fall. For this purpose it was necessary to organize them. So on October 15, the members of the Lincoln Society, with the adviser, Miss Yager, met for this purpose. At this meeting new members, the freshmen, were admitted. The officers elected were as follows: President Richard Dively Secretary-Treasurer Treva DeWeese The Lincoln Society won the contest and was entertained to a picnic by the Douglas Society on October 31. Since that very little has been done but plans are now being made to hold a literary contest between the two. HE members of the Douglas Literary Society with their faculty adviser. Miss Warvel, held a meeting on October 15, 1925, for the purpose of electing new officers and also for admitting new Freshmen members. The meeting was called to order by the presiding chairman, Mary Waggoner. I he officers elected Arrangements were then made for a contest between the Lincoln Society and the Douglas Society for selling lecture course tickets. It was agreed between the two societies that the losers were to entertain the winners. The meeting was then adjourned. Due to lack of salesmen the Douglas Society were the losers in the contest. (Our obligation to the Lincoln Society was fulfilled on the evening of October 31st). No other activities were taken up until later in the year.

This is followed by a business meeting and educational program after which we play both French and English games until time to go home.

The Club has sung for many occasions and has always received the highest praise. Its most notable success was the operetta, “Windmills of Holland.” This operetta, directed by Miss Frey, was perhaps the best home talent entertainment presented in Bradford for many years.

This Club has as its aim the development of the girls, along mental, religious, social, and physical lines, and the creation of a more friendly spirit among all the high school girls. It endeavors to instill, in the lives of its members, those ideals, which when developed, make for the highest type of womanhood in order that their lives may be an asset to the community in which they live. This organization is for the good of all and already it has done much along the line of community services. At Christmas a party was given for the kiddies of Bradford and Christmas Carols were sung for the shut-ins and others who wished them. On February 12, the club gave a Valentine party to which all the high school girls were invited. Invalid citizens of Bradford and high school girls who are ill are cheered by the visits of Girl Reserves. This is only a beginning of what this splendid organization will do in the future.

However, it has been more than that this year. One afternoon at the beginning of the school year all high school students assembled to organize an athletic association. At this meeting the following officers were elected to head the organization: PRESIDENT Dale Berkebile Vice-President .............. ...........................Thelma Tisor SECRETARY...... ..Grace Girton Treasurer.... Edward Hughes The purpose of the organization is to encourage athletics in the high school; to promote better sportsmanship; and to be responsible for the financing of all athletic activities. For many reasons the students feel that this organization has lived up to its purpose this year. It has been responsible to a great extent for arousing an interest and enthusiasm on the part of the student body toward games and all athletic activities. One means of doing this has been to sponsor pep meetings. The cheer leaders, Van Bowersox and Thelma Tisor, who were elected by the Association, deserve much credit for their efforts in making the cheering better this year than it has ever been before. Also, the Association has placed in the possession of the school something which the school has never had before—a high school flag. Under the leadership of “Coach” Carpenter we feel that the entire student body has gained something of an idea of good sportsmanship. His favorite phrase seems to be “ Be a sport” in the best sense of the word. The students feel that the things the Association has done this year have proved it to be a very worth-while organization. Therefore, they wish to see it become an extablished organization in the high school. 39 Agriculture Club THOUGH this is the first year that an Agriculture Class and organization has existed in the Senior High School, we feel proud of our accomplishments thus far. To Mr. Carpenter who owns a farm close to Lake Erie and who knows a lot about farming, we give the credit for starting this class. Besides our regular class work we have laboratory two periods each week. Also, we spent one day at the Miami County Fair visiting the stock barns and the farm displays. We considered it a profitable as well as an enjoyable day. We also have a basketball team known for its sportmanship if not for the number of games won. We have played the Caesar Class, Junior High, Gettysburg Agriculture Class and other teams. The line up is as follows. Center.. ..... James Driver Right Forward Lawson Warner Left Forward..

With the aid of Mrs. Berkebile and Mr. Warner the girls did the cooking. We had a very good supper which consisted of the following: Fried rabbit, mashed potatoes and gravy, baked beans, slaw, celery, cottage cheese, banana salad, angel-food cake and home made ice-cream. There were many guests there who were not members of the Club. One of these was Mr. Carpenter who gave us a little speech. He said that he wished we would have suppers like that quite often—then maybe he would get enough to eat once. We know he enjoyed the supper. We gave Mrs. Berkebile a vote of thanks for all her help. Except for washing dishes our evening was indeed a very joyous one. French Club Rabbit Feed N December 1, Le Cercle Francais met at the home of Alice Weaver to enjoy a “diner de lapin.” The girls came early so as to have everything in readiness by 6:30. Many hands may make light work but we’ll all agree that “ too many cooks” spoiled the mashed potatoes. Don’t ask any of us about that though. The feast consisted of rabbit, mashed potatoes and gravy, creamed peas, creamed corn, pickles, cranberry sauce, salad, and sherbet. After spending two hours (perhaps less) at the table, the girls washed the dishes while the lucky boys furnished us with music. After all signs of the recent feast had been cleared away we played such exciting games as “pig,” “touring”, etc., until time to go home. 42 1926 Resume Football Banquet ON Wednesday evening, January 27, at the High School Building, the football men of the 1925 squad and the High School faculty were given a banquet by the parents of the boys. This means was taken to show the appreciation of the parents for the work of the team during the past season. At the business meeting that took place before the banquet, James Stichter was elected captain of the 1926 squad. He is quite worthy of the position and we feel that with the full support of the team, he will lead the team thru a successful season. The banquet, which consisted of plenty of good things for everyone, was followed by a number of speeches. Coach Carpenter, the toast master, first (gave a little speech in which he showed a few fine points of football.) In closing, he presented to Captain Dively the letters of the squad. Before presenting the letters to his men, Captain Dively expressed his sincere thanks to the squad for the support they had given in the past year. He then presented a B to each of the following members of the team: Earl Warren Chalmer Thompson Robert Leady Dale Berkebile James Stichter Edward Hughes Artie Deeter Gerald Gibbonev Harold Looker Bernard Lyons Oliver Davis Paul McBride Dale Bazill Donald Shively Reserve letters were presented to; Harry hifer, Donald Looker, t larence Glick and Gennard Whitwer and Bascom Rike received a manager’s letter. The faculty, parents and Senior members of the team were then given a chance to say a few words. The remainder of the evening was spent in friendly conversation. 43 1 Jhe 1926 Resume ]0 French Club Christmas Party high hopes of seeing Santa Le Cercle Francais journeyed to the home of Dick Dively on the evening of December 22. Santa had just left before we came but he had fulfilled his duty by decorating the rooms and leaving the presents. When all had arrived we were permitted to examine the mysterious packages piled before the fireplace. By the number of exclamations everyone seemed to be highly satisfied and well pleased with their presents. After playing several games refreshments were served. The deliciousness of the eats was proven by the fact that no one took time to talk. We were then visited by the Girl Reserve carollers who took some of our members. The remainder of that enjoyable evening was spent in playing more games and in talking. Rotary Club Steak Roast VNK cool evening after school on Tuesday, September 30th, the Senior Rotary Club with a few friends, gathered at the Covered Bridge for a steak and marshmellow roast. Games were played from 4:00 until about 6:30 o’clock. Then gathering about a huge bonfire, we roasted the steak and made it into sandwiches which with pickles, was eaten with great relish by all present. After this marsh-mellows were roasted and eaten between stories told by those surrounding the glowing fire—the fire died down and we adjourned having spent an enjoyable evening. Those present were: Mr. Warner, his Rotary Club visitors; Catherine Kisner, Treva DeWeese, Lester Routson, and Everett Shively. 44 High School Hallowe’en Party ON the evening of October 31, the night of spooks and goblins, one hundred and twenty-five masked students assembled in the gym for the first high school party staged for many years. The gym was very appropriately decorated for the occasion—corn shocks being much in evidence. The first feature of the evening was the Grand March during which the masqueraders passed before the critical eye of the judges. There were those there who were dressed as cats, bums, negroes, puritans, etc., and naturally everyone was eager to see who would win the prizes. Miss Warvel and Alice Weaver, who were dressed as Puritans, won first prize for being best dressed couple. Roy Carter, dressed as an umbrella mender was selected as the funniest dressed person. Chalmer Thompson, a colored dandy, won first prize for being best disguised person. James Stichter was chairman of the committee in charge of the party and was given most loyal support by the other members of the school. Mr. Warner who had charge of the entertainment, mystified those present with his magical stunts. Alice Weaver also displayed her remarkable gift of witch-craft to the pleasure of the entire crowd. In playing “Rachel and Jacob,” Mrs. Carpenter led Mr. Carpenter a merry chase (We wish we could have seen her three years ago). Much fun was provoked when Mr. Snyder and Ted Cencebaugh did the tumbling stunt. When each one had exhausted his fund of tricks and everyone was getting hungry, Mr. Warner placed the corn shocks in a row extending lengthwise in the middle of the gym. The girls were on one side and the boys on the other side of the shocks. Partners were then chosen as the gun was shot, each boy going “over the top” and grabbing the girl with whom he wished to eat. The eats were: cider, doughnuts, and apples and as the cider was not hard, it caused no bad results. After a few more selections from the orchestra, which had been playing at intervals during the evening, the group of merry makers left the scene of entertainment and joy for a few good hours of sleep (which the most of us needed.) 45 E Jhe 1926 Ws l fTlQ ]0 46 0 47 Jhe 1926 Res u me 'T'HIS is Mr. Carpenter's first year with us, and inside of a week he had the team in as good a shape as if we had had a month’s coaching. Mr. Carpenter is a graduate of Miami University with an A. B. degree, a post-graduate of George Peabody College of Nashville, Tennessee, and of Ohio State. He has made friends of every one, he is a hard worker, and always patient. We hope he is with us next year.

A good man on the defense. “Spike” also holds down guard and tackle positions. He instills lots of pep and fight into the game. This is his third year on the varsity, and has well earned his three letters. He is a good leader and a true sportsman. DALE BERKEBILE “Berkey” End This was “ Berkey’s” first year with the squad but he played the game well. He played left end. He could always get through, and always ready for an attempt advance around his end. Dale puts plenty of punch and fight into the game. He deserves his letter. ROBERT LEADY “Bob” Guard A good guard, heavy, but aggressive, and always shows plenty of fight. He gets his man on the offense and never yields an inch on the defensive. Although this is “Bob’s” first year on the arsity, he showed good form. He will be greatlv missed next year. 50 1926 Resume CHALMER THOMPSON Tackle A mighty good tackle with plenty of fight all the time. He delighted in “mussing things up” for his opponents. This was his first year on the varsity. His services will be greatly missed next year. EARL WARREN Mick” Halfback Mick” is rather light, but he made up for that by his do or die” fight. He was a fast, clean player. He has made the varsity for four years, and has received his four letters. Each he well deserves. His position will be hard to fill next year. 51 Review of Games Bradford—24 Versailles—0 On hriday, September 18th at Bradford the “Black and Orange” opened the football season of 1925 by defeating V. H. S., on a muddy and slippery grid. The “ Black and Orange” had the ball in their position most of the time. Berkebile and Bernard Lyons upheld B. H. S-by scoring the only points. Bradford—6 Greenville—7 At Greenville, Saturday, September 26th the “Black and Orange” suffered their first defeat at the hands of G. H. S. in a hard fought battle. The ability of both teams were evenly ■matched, but G. H. S. out-weighed the “Black and Orange” ten pounds to a man. Warren and Looker have to their credit some fine gaines. Lyons scored for B. H. S. Bradford—0 Miamisburg—35 Saturday, October 3rd at Miamisburg the “Black and Orange” lost their second game of the season at the hands of M. H. S. The Miamisburg lads out-weighed B. H. S. from ten to fifteen pounds to the man. Bradford was somewhat crippled; Dively and Stichter were not able to play, because of injuries received the previous week. Warren and Lyons played a good offensive game, but the line was considerably weak. Bradford—9 Greenville—6 At Greenville, October 8th, this game was not in the regular schedule, being just a practice game in which the reserves of both G. H. S. and B. H. S. were given a chance to show their ability as football players. They displayed form and ability that will certainly (in time) make the future teams of both schools. Bradford—15 West Milton -0 On hriday, October 17th, at Bradford the “Black and Orange” won their second victory by defeating W . M. H. S. I he West Milton lads put up a good fight but could not score on B. H. S. The Black and Orange” displayed a fine piece of team work, each man doing his rpart.

The “ Black and Orange” warriors played a good all around game, but were unable to score. Bradford—0 Arcanum—0 On Friday, November 6th, at Bradford. The ‘‘Black and Orange” fought a 0 to 0 tie with Arcanum High School. Both teams were evenly matched, each showing splendid skill in both offensive and defensive lines. The A. H. S. lads gained ground in the first half, but were held in the second session and until the finish. The “Black and Orange’ warriors as a whole played a good defensive game. The grid was wet and slippery and neither team could display their best field work. Bradford —6 West Milton—6 On Saturday, November 14th, at West Milton. Coach Carpenter started all the men that would probably make up next years eleven. But they did not remain in the game long for the West Milton warriors made three big gains on the three leading plays. Then— Cap Dively, Berkebile, Thompson and R. Leady were substituted. West Milton used their aerial attack throughout the entire game. In the third quarter W. M. H. S. was in possession of the ballon the thirty yard line. They attempted a pass over Dively’s defensive half position, Dively intercepted it and ran thirty-five for a touch-down. The latter part of the fourth quarter W. M. H. S. succeeded in scoring a touchdown when B. H. S. was forced to kick behind their goal, the kick went high and just over the line, a est Milton lad caught the ball and stepped over the line for six points. They missed the goal making a tie 6 to 6. Bradford—14 Versailles—0 Friday, November 20th at Versailles. The football dope was in favor of . H.

With these facts and his slimness it is easy for him to get over the floor. A valuable man lost by graduation.

Two weeks before the tournament the eight picked men started on a diet which was set by Coach Carpenter. Every one of the eight men obeyed the rules to the utmost. The week previous to the tournament was a light week for training, but every one made it count. The last scrimmage was held Wednesday, March 24. Nine teams took part in the tournament which started Friday afternoon at 2:00. We drew West Milton for our first opponents, to play the first game of the tournament. The cheering was good and there was lots of spirit in the High School crowd. The team played good ball, and soon Mr. Snyder sent in the second team to relieve the regulars for the next game. The game ended 30-5 in favor of Bradford. Our second game was with Staunton in the evening. Things looked rather gloomy for the “Black and Orange” in the first half, for our opponents had us 12-4 at the end of the first session. But Bradford came back with lots of fight and won out by a score 23-28. Saturday afternoon at 3:00 the “Black and Orange” met Covington for their third game. Covington who had beaten us two games previous to the tournament felt that they had an easy game, but the dope did not workout. At first it looked as though they might,—but the B. H. S. lads came through true to form, the game ended 19-18 in favor of the Smoky City Lads. At an early hour, all available space was occupied for the evening session, which was to determine who was to be the County Champs for 26, this, to be settled between Tipp City and Bradford. Both teams displayed good form of basketball. Throughout the entire game, the playing was fast and clean,—while the score stood close. Warren and Lyons were high scorers for Bradford. 1 he game ended 22-17 in favor of Bradford. MIAMI COUNTY CHAMPS!

At first we felt a little strange in a new building with three teachers and three classrooms besides manual training and domestic science rooms, but that lasted only a few days. By the time we got somewhat acquainted with fifty in the eighth grade we were at home and were ready for a good winter's work. We, of the eighth grade, glad to be in the last year of our Junior High took up our task in earnest. We have had a successful busy year together, and we are very proud of our Junior High. We have many things we can look back to, with a great deal of pleasure. Our physical education periods and our Tuesday and Thursday noons in the gym have been, under the direction of Mr. Miller, periods of real fun and relaxation. We are all proud of the boys and girls of our basketball teams, and we know when they get into Senior High they will be valuable material there. Our Friday morning Chapels have been sources of much inspiration and pleasure, as we have been privileged to listen to the best speakers in Bradford and surrounding country and also to those who happen to come within our gates. Miss Frey has made the music a recitation of pleasure and profit and we are beginning to appreciate the best in music as never before. I he library under the new management of Mrs. Carpenter, has surely been a valuable source of information and interest. It is building up habits of study and we are sure it will make better characters. The eagerness with which we all go to our manual training and domestic science classes, plainly shows our interest in that work. We hope, when our Junior High days are over, to enter Senior High with a great deal of pleasure to us and with much profit to them. 63 !Jhe 1926 T esume Junior Hi Boys’ Basketball Team FLOYD H.
