With the aid of our washing machines, the mimeoigraph and typewriters, we have put forth clean, read- able laundry in the form of our school paper. Our laundrymen, the Wash Staff, have scoured the High School every week for school news. They have made true the saying that It all comes out in the Washg for little has escaped their prying eyes. Each Wednesday night, the student body has produced its nickels to buy the Wash. The entire Wash Staff wish to thank the students both in the High School and Grammar School for their cooperation. We sincerely hope that the Wash may ever be successful in many years to come. Editor in Chief .... Art Editor ...... Athletic Editor .. Exchange Editor ... Business Manager . Feature Writer ....

was fl af A ,.., 1 I A J , 3 1 FOOTBALL The Canton High School football season for 1931 was one of the most successful the school has experienced in its history. The season was started with a team of new men, few o-f them had any experience, but under the leadership of Coach Oliver, and Captain Rex Crump, this same team of greenhorns played like veterans. The first league game of the season ended in a stinging defeat. This merely served as a whip does to a lagging horse, for the next week Po,tsdam's mighty team was held to a scoreless tie. After this small taste of victory, Canton struck her stride. Gouverneur was beaten by a decisive score. However, the best game of the season was the Malone game. Canton's small team went down to Malone, played a larger and more experienced team off their feet to earn the right to play in the championship the following week. The championship, played at Weeks Athletic Field before a record crowd, was a battle royal. It was not until the final whistle that Ogdensburg was sure of their victory. The best play of the game was Captain Crump's run of fifty-five yards through the entire Ogdensburg team for a touchdown. In honor of the team, three very delicious banquets were given, one by Frank Sanford, the freshman tackleg one by Rex Crump, ex-captaing and one by the Canton Advertising Club. At the Hrst banquet, the captain for next season was elected. Th-e Class of 1932 wishes Canton teams, and Captain Wilmer Thomas another successful season.
