We ARROW 1920 PUBLISHED BY THE STUDENTS OF GAPE CHARLES HIGH SGHOOL CAPE CHARLES, VIRGINIA IPamunrb if Of all sad words of tongue or pen , The saddest are these, it might have bcenT These words express our sentiments in re¬ gard to our high-school life, and especially in regard to this our first attempt at anything in the literary world. We fully realize that our annual might have been better and we wish it were, but then it might have been worse. Nevertheless we have done our best and hope that our readers will kindly overlook our mis¬ takes. In after years, if this second volume of The Arrow brings back pleasant memories of our Alma Mater, we shall feel that we have not labored in vain. 4 thxtzdixttt imc to ha has giitett the hesi gears uf her life in faithful atth legal service in her rarmmmitg atth toha is still the heir at eh teacher a:th fririth of the gmtrtg p eagle, ia ifttSS XTOghtg We affectiamtielg hehicate this seratth italitttte af the Arrato The AliliOW Cape Charles High School Adjani Ilnarft j. D. KING, Chairman . J. V. MOORE... J. W. WILSON, Secretary We feel that we have been very fortunate in having Mr. King, Mr, Moore, and Mr. Wilson on the School Board during our school life. They are very considerate of our wants, and seem not to forget the fact that we are real girls and boys always ready to hav e some fun. We feel that this our number of The Arrow would have been incomplete without mention of these most loyal trustees of Cape Charles High School Elected 1910 Elected 1914 .Elected 1916 6 The AMiOtV Cape Charles High School Hi acuity MR, DAVID WILBUR PETERS, Principal Mr. Peters has been with us during all our High School career. He is a friend in need and always willing to help every one. He has brought Cape Charles up to the present status, and has succeeded in carrying through many plans for the betterment of school and community. MR. DAVID P. SMITH, JR. Cape Charles High was benefited greatly when early last fall Mr. Smith came in and called his class together. Even though he is a bit snappy at times he has proven to us that he is a thorough mathematician. MISS SARA DOUGHTY Miss Sara has helped ns through our first years in Latin, and has introduced us to the three noted men—Ciesar, Cicero, and Vergil; and has also labored with us through our entire four years of English MISS PRESTON AMBLER Miss Ambler has successfully carried her history and French classes through the storms of the year. Though sometimes quick in temper, she is soon herself again, and is always full of loyalty and school spirit. MISS EDNA COLE Miss Cole, our commercial teacher, has won the high esteem of all her pupils, and is one to whom we may always go for assistance. MISS LOIS SHOW ALTER Miss Showalter, our beloved science teacher, has helped us make many good things this session. MISS AD DIE WESSELS As head of our music department, Miss Wessels often entertains us while in study hall, and, judging by the sounds coming from the music room the pupils are progressing rapidly. S The ARROW Cape Charles High School MRS. HARRY RUSSELL Cupid threw some of his darts our way this year and the mid-term found us in need of another teacher. Mrs. Russell came to our rescue, and has taken care of the seventh grade to the entire satisfaction of all. MISS EVELYN JUSTIS Cape Charles High School was forunate in securing for sixth grade teacher, Miss Justis from Accoinac. We could not find one to surpass her. MISS FRANCES CAPPS The czarina of the fifth grade. Although she is a new member of the Faculty, she has shown her ability to gain many friends. MISS ELIZABETH TYLER Miss Tyler is especially noted for her good work in teaching calisthenics to the fourth grade and also the High School. MISS EMILY TALBOT That “Good things come in small packages” is illustrated by Miss Talbot’s success with the third grade. MISS EFFIE BERRY The booster of the second grade claims the honor of having the brightest grade in school Miss Berry has been the faithful coach of the girls ' basket-ball team. MISS REBECCA SCOTT As the first-grade teacher, Miss Scott has won a place in the heart of each of her little pupils. 10 The ARROW Cape Charles High School SUSAN FITCHF.TT... PAGE POWELL.

W C” Basket-Ball 1920, Here’s to ‘Steve,” who with her golden curls and happy face has won her place with us. Although she didn ' t enter the class until 1916, when we began our High School career, Steve” made basket-ball team this spring, and is. we feel sure, going to help make Cape Charles High win the championship for 1920. Also among her other accomplishments she has done splendid work in commercial course, and we are sure that the business world holds in store great things for Steve.” Good luck and best wishes from your classmates of 1920.

Manager Basket-Ball Team, 1919-20, Cow” is not at all like the animal whose name lie has, but on the contrary he has shown us that be is industrious, capable, and worthy of any trust. He is one of the “original five” who began school together in the first grade. Cow” is noted for his good nature and willingness to help in whatever may turn up. This is hoping, Cow,” that you will some day be President of the United States.” For just as surely as all things come to him who waits, that much more surely do they fall to him who goes for them. 14 Cape Charles High School The ARROW She ' s truly a sport and very bright. Even though she r s such a mite .— Fannie. FANNIE ESTHER EILICH ff Cricket Class Poet, 1920. Member Basket-Ball Team, 1919-20. “Cricket” is one of the few people in the world to live up to their name. She entered our class when we had just embarked on our High School career, and added to our class her brains, speech, and energies. “Cricket” is always present and ready to do her part of the basket-ball team. During this year she has worked faithfully over her commercial course and has been fully repaid by the number of A ' s she has received, Fannie is a model stu¬ dent in every way, and we wish her the best of success in the future. Always ready and willing to fry, Never letting her •work go by. —A MY. AMY IDA BURBAGE Pat” Class Prophet Director of the Bank, During her whole school career “Pat” has never been known to be tardy. Always on time. That ' s Amy. Neatness is her byword. “Pat” is kind, willing to help, and very gen¬ erous, She is rather “piggish,” however, when it comes to catching measles, mumps, whoop¬ ing cough, “flu,” and various other diseases, which she has enjoyed at least three times. Although “Pat” is sorta” quiet and dignified- like, she believes in getting fun out of life, too. She has convinced us that a good time may he had without the opposite sex. Pat” is our class prophet, and her prophetic vision has painted for each of us a glorious future. 15 The ARROW Cape Charles High School Teacher, may borrow a bookf Why what is the meaning of that awful look? —Clarence. CLARENCE ROWLAND FlfCHETT “Fitch” Captain Baseball Team, 1918-20, Captain Football Team, 1919-20. Center 1919-20 Quint. Happy-go-lucky and one who never gives a “Hurrah” for anything is “Fitch.” He is a jolly good fellow and has endeared himself in the hearts of his classmates, and especially one, whom it is unnecessary to mention. At first, he was bashful when with the fair sex, but, oh, boy ! he is a regular heart-breaker now. They fall for him as grass before a lawn mower. If looking for a competent man to bring us a successful team in athletics call on Clarence, be is sure to get results. In spite of his love for athletics he has held his own through the stars of Seniordotn, and we arc sure he will make a success at anything he attempts. Laughs and giggles and a pretty smile Are the only things that are really worth while. —Margaret, MARGARET EVELYN CARMEAN “Peggy” President Glee Club. “Peggy” always has a sunny smile. When you arc blue see “Peggy,” when you are merry see Peggy.” She is a good tonic for all occasions. Her fantastical flights often bear her off to the realm of Apollo; but we arc happy to say that she always returns to us without mishap. As a pupil of household arts she has made a great success, because we understand that she has her “hope (less) chest” well under way from the work she has accomplished in this course. Margaret is a diligent student, and has won a place in the hearts of her classmates. May your success continue, “Peggy.” 16 Cape Charles High School The ARROW Good old pal, here’s a wish for you — May you always succeed in whatever you do. “Susan - . SUSAN F1TCHETT “Sookie” Editor-in-Chief The Arrow, 1920. Edifor-in-Chief ' News Member Basket-Ball Team, 1919-20. “Oh, what a pal was ' Bookie ” She has been a loyal member of the Class of ' 20. “Bookie faithfully believes in the motto, “If you don ' t succeed the first time, try again 1 We have never known her to fail in anything she ever attempted. Although she has not taken time to enjoy the frivolities of life, she will, we feel sure, he a great success in that line, whenever she finds time, Scokie has served notably as editor-in-chief on the edi¬ torial staff. She has also taken a great inter¬ est in athletics. This is to say that we wish you may never lose a pound worrying over what other folks ought to do. 17 Was there ever candy with better taste Thou that which is eaten and swalloived in ha ste ?— Debora h. DEBORAH VENITA FULCHER “Deb” Joke Editor The Arrow, 1920. “Deb is our combined supply of giggles and smiles, and even though she continually says “1 shall die ' at every quiz or exam yet she always comes through with shining colors. We can tell by the way that she has grasped her business course that she is in for success. Among her other accomplishments is her ability to play Rook, “Deb being a regular “shark in that line. “Deb” is very fond of “Oystcr”ettes, and for this reason she has spent much of her time out of town. Here ' s to you, “Deb,” may your future life be as happy as your past. 2 The ARROW Cape Charles High School Thank you kindly, no studying for me. I would much rather go to sec Tony —Albert. WILLIAM ALBERT RICHARDSON Buck Captain Basket-Ball Team, 1919-20. “Buck as he is known by all, has become prominent in the athletic field, and he has helped to win many a victory for C C. H, S, He has won four “Cs in baseball, two in basket-ball, and two in football. Another of his accomplishments is the way in which he handles “Cupid ' If you see the back of a fellow who is talking to a girl, guess “Buck, and nine times out of ten you will be right When there’s any “thunder kicked up t he is sure to he in the midst of it. But there is one especially admirable trait in “Buck,” and that is that he never gets “mad no matter what happens. May you always keep your good disposition, “Buck Nasitnova is rather mild Compared with this irrepressible child. —Christine CHRISTINE FROST GLADSTONE Chris Chris entered our class in her Senior year. She fitted in just as if she had always been one of us t and we wish she had come sooner, “Chris” has been one of the leaders in all class functions and many other good times. Basket¬ ball has been her hobby, and, judging from the number of letters she has received from across the bay, we think she has made quite a hit with the opposite teams. Chemistry is Christine’s “bugbear,” and she delights to write up the experiments We hope that her experiments in life will turn out as well as those in school 18 Cape Charles High School The ARROW Auburn hair and sparkling blue eyes Are nice when the girt is also wise .— Ruth, RUTH ALEEN GUY “Mickey” Assistant Circulation Manager News. Class Treasurer, Social Editor The Arrow, That Ruth has been our treasurer for the four years of our High School life shows how much we can depend on her, A jolly good sport, and why shouldn ' t she be? For every Saturday and Sunday she is “Ford”cd across the shadowed week-end “Mickey” is one of these beings that is sure to throw her net and catch the opposite sex when they pass her way. With all her outside interests she never neglects her studies. She has progressed ad¬ mirably in her commercial course to say nothing of her household arts. One word that is not in Ruth s vocabulary when she is asked to be of any assistance to any one is “no.” Mickey,” you have our best wishes for a happy future. She’s always merry and happy and gay. She laughs and talks lhe livelong day , —Evelyn MARY EVELYN KING “Webbie” Social Editor News. Art Editor The Arrow. Evelyn is Peck’s Bad Girl” in school but this does not stop her from making good marks on her studies. “Webbie” has a joke to fit every occasion which might arise. But with the slip of the tongue and sometimes a bit too late, “Webbie” gets there just the same with her expression, f Tm coming.” She is the sunshine of the class who radiates a pleasant spirit among her comrades. One of her hap¬ piest faculties, which should be envied by all her classmates, is that of never getting ruffled, always keeping her smiling face and smooth disposition But in spite of these enviable finalities she persists in losing her hooks. “Has anybody seen my book?” is her constant cry She has very clearly shown a great talent for “art” during this year, so we can only wish Webbie” a place among the leading artists of our country. The ARROW Cape Charles High School “What is it you want me to do?” “Why, yes, I ll be glad to do it for you” —Helen. HELEN ELIZABETH LOWE “Honey” Class Historian. “Hone is a jolly good sport. She is steadfast, sweet tempered, congenial, and al¬ ways eager to help. Throughout her High School career “Honey ' has done good work. She has made a specialty of household arts and is progressing rapidly in her commercial course. Her good deeds while in High School will never be forgotten, and we are expecting greater things from her in the future. Ready and willing, staunch and true, Doing “stunts that are ever new. —Wilson, WILSON THOMAS TOWNSEND “Stumpy” Treasurer Athletic Association. Left Field, Third Base, Catcher, 1917-18- 19-20. Guard ’20 Basket-Ball Quint. That “Stumpy is a veritable combination of Doug Fairbanks and Charlie Chaplin is shown by his many and varied stunts. Although small in stature, Wilson plays a big part in athletics. He has given excellent proof of his business abilties by successfully handling the funds of the Athletic Association. ’Tis said of “Stumpy” that he is very popular with the ladies, but, considering his good qualities, that is not at all strange, “Stumpy is a valuable asset to our class. He is especially useful when there are errands to run. 20 Cape Charles High School The ARROW Dashing f daring, bold and gay , The ' handsome, irresistible “Harry Day —Harry. HARRY DAY WILKINS Happy Business Manager The Arrow and News. Vice-President Class. Assistant Cashier High School Bank. “Happy” is a good old sport, not an angel by any means, but sometimes he makes folks think he is. He dropped in to see us one day in the year 1912 and has been here ever since. “Happy” has been a very active member in athletics, having played on baseball, basket- ball, and football teams for the past three years. With all these pressing duties, “Happy” had found time to not only give some teachers much of his attention, blit also has quite a good time “catching ' Rats ” But with all these he has a “one and only” whom he sees and views a little better than any one else. Good luck to you, “Happy,” in the chase. She ' s kind and good and very nice. Yes, Dixie, she is worth the price .— Elizabeth. ELIZABETH CATHERINE McALLEN “Ishie” Athletic Editor The Arrow. Member Basket-Ball Team, 1919-20, Notary Public. Tall lean, and lank is “Ishie” a steady, hard worker, and one who defies any one to step on her toes. Our best athlete to represent the Senior girls. Elizabeth can almost stand on her toes and drop the ball in the basket. She is very much engaged and delighted by a cer¬ tain Southern melody. We often wonder how she knows her lessons so well, as she studies the mechanism of a Ford every night. But in spite of her outside interests, she is a goo d student. All of “IsliicY’ classmates wish her all kinds of good luck. 21 The ARROW Cape Charles High School junior (Mnm l tfilory IFTEEN of our little band have been loyal to the Class of ' 20 throughout the fours years in High. At the beginning of this session another member joined our ranks, giving us a total enrollment of sixteen. We entered High School in September, 1915, totally ignorant of the traps and snares in store for us. It was not long, however, before we became wise and sophisticated “Rats.” At our first class meeting we elected the following officers: Downes Wise, President; Willard Chandler, Vice-President; Margaret Carmean, Secretary; and Ruth Guy, Treasurer. After serving for a few months Downes resigned, and Page Powell was elected to fill the vacant office. We dosed the first year with (what seemed to us) a brilliant banquet for the Faculty and Seniors. To our disappointment, when we came back to school the following year two were missing from our roll call, but a new member came in and filled one of the vacancies. The crowning point of our “Soph” year was when we gave a “Mock Faculty Meeting,” which was such a great success that the teachers had to pinch themselves in order that they might realize whether they were in the audience or on the rostrum. Four of our seven boys made Varsity Base¬ ball Team, while our girls were active in basket-ball. We closed our “Soph” year with a successful banquet for the Faculty and Seniors. September, 1918, found the same crowd prepared for business and deter¬ mined to keep the teachers smiling ( ?). As usual we were well represented in athletics, because three of our boys made Varsity Basket-Ball Team, while four made Varsity Baseball Team. The Domestic Science Class was com¬ posed mostly of girls from our class, and so we claim the honor of having given the largest banquet ever held under the auspices of the school. The climax of our Junior year came when we presented a drama entitled, “A Corner of the Campus.” While looking forward to a successful oncoming year our class disbanded after a large banquet given in honor of the Faculty and Seniors. And, now, at last, we are Seniors. Three years ago we had a beautiful dream which has nearly been realized. We have come to the last mile of the race with high hopes of making this our final year one of work and play, as 22 The ARROW Cape Charles High School A ONE-ACT PLAYLET ENTITLED “Hljat ’®wntty Sth” (With Only Sixteen) By An Unknown Scribe [Editor ' s Note. —The fragments of the original manuscript have been translated by Amy Ida Burbage, in the sincere hope that the words and actions of these futuristic characters, as portrayed by the penetrating faculties of this unknown playwright, will lift the Veil of the Future for her Classmates—replacing the vague Uncertainties of Graduation with a picture of the Success, Happiness, and Health which the years shall bring.] iDtamatfs personae THE WIFE.

Time. —-Late afternoon in June, 1945, ACT I ( The drawing-room furnishings are well appointed and the interior taste¬ fully decorated. Seated at the right in his favorite easy chair, Mr. Anyman lounges luxuriously while he peruses his evening paper. His wife, seated be¬ fore the open window, draws an envelope from the stationery portfolio on her lap and proceeds to address a note she has been writing.) Mr. Anyman (throwing aside his paper). Emily, did you say that you were expecting some of your friends for the week-end? Mrs. Anyman, Yes, I thought I told you. I am not sure how many are coming, but I have invited all of my class. (Rings for a maid and instructs her to post immediately the letter which she has just finished.) Mr. Anyman. Let’s see—you were in the Class of 1920? ....Miss Emily Ames . . .-.Mr. Anyman .Miss Susan FUchett -.Miss Evelyn King -Miss Fannie Bilich 24 Cape Charles High School The ARROW Mrs, Anyman. Yes; and the largest class that ever graduated at the old High School tip to that time—sixteen proud and loyal members. You know, however, duty calls in many quaint and distant places, and so I fear that not many of us will be together to-morrow. Mr. Anyman. But why is this reunion more inportant than any of the others ? Mrs. Anyman. Principally because it is our twenty-fifth reunion, and then, too, there is a very important piece of business which we should take up, Mr. Anyman {laughing). The election of officers, I suppose; that is the most important piece of business to a woman, Mrs. Anyman (smiling ). Certainly not. To-morrow the corner-stone of our new State Normal is to be laid, and I wanted our class to be among the names of those that have made gifts to the institution. We could endow a chair or establish a scholarship fund for graduates of our dear old C, C. H. S. Mr. Anyman. That’s just like you, my dear, (Butler announces the arrival of Miss Loquacious and is directed to show her in. Ente r Miss Loquacious at right center.) Mrs, Anyman (advances to meet her). Well, well, Fannie, I am so glad to see you. (Embraces her.) It ' s been such a long time since we were to¬ gether. I want you to meet my husband. (Introductions follow.) Miss Loquacious. I am just delighted to meet you, Mr. Anyman. I’ve heard so much about you from Emily. (Turning to Mils. Anyman.) And how have you been ? Mrs. Anyman. Oh, very well, but I have been working rather hard lately; yet I suppose I am not half so busy as you are with that wonderful work of yours ? Miss Loquacious . I am kept rather busy. When I am not speaking I am traveling. Why, within the past twelve months I have introduced thirty rest and recreation rooms for women in business centers. (Laughing.) And at a moment’s notice I must he prepared to talk on any subject from raising chickens to children, Mr. Anyman, But it pays in the end, Miss Loquacious, I have heard much about your good work from my business associates, and I want you to feel that if at any time I can be of service you have but to name it. (Miss Jester and Miss Savant are announced. They enter at right center,) 25 The ARROW Cape Charles High School Mrs , Any man. Oh, girls! (The four ladies embrace each other affec¬ tionately .) This does seem like old times. I want you to meet my husband. (Turning to Mr. Anyman.) My dear, meet two more of my classmates, Miss Savant, a missionary, who has just returned from foreign lands, where she has been doing such wonderful work in the interest of humanity; and Miss Jester, the noted cartoonist, whose pictures have given us all many happy hours. (Mr. Anyman warmly greets each in turn.) And, now, girls, tell me how you got here so soon, I didn ' t expect you until the late train. Miss Jester. I drove Susan over in my new car. Miss Loquacious. A new car—what make is it, Evelyn ? Miss Jester , The latest model Richardson,” and it is a dandy. Miss Savant . Well, it really couldn’t help being a dandy, because Albert was the designer and manufacturer. Miss Loquacious Yes, Albert certainly has been a great success in the automobile world. Do you know that on my last trip through the West I heard that his car won the award at the Auto Exhibit for both speed and d ii rabi 1 i ty. I s A1 b e rt com ing, Em i ly ? Mrs . Anyman. No, he sent his regrets saying that he couldn’t possibly get away from his work at this season of the year. Christine also had to send her regrets on account of important work demanding her attention—a summer rehearsal, I think, of a new play which will open in London next season in answer to the repeated calls that have come from across the ocean for our famous actress. Miss Savant . Our old class has certainly been well represented on the stage. Miss Jester . And not only on the stage, but on the concert platform. Miss Loquacio iis. You mean Ruth and Margaret ? Miss Jester. Yes, and they now appear together, Ruth, the best-known soloist in the country to-day, and Margaret, the noted pianist, dear to the hearts of all music lovers. During the winter in New York they often came to my studio to talk over the combined tour of the country, which their managers are planning for them. Miss Loquacious. Speaking of New York reminds me—whom do you think I stayed with when I was in the city? Miss Jester. I don ' t know; I didn’t think you stayed long enough in one place to visit. 26 Cape Charles High School The ARROW Miss Loquacious . With one of our classmates—Elizabeth. She has the most wonderful home on Riverside Drive, and is as happy as one could possibly be. Her husband—“Dixie,” you know—was away, so she spent several days piloting me around the city. (Maid enters with a telegram for Mrs. Anyman.) Mrs. A nyman {after reading telegram). It’s from Wilson. He regrets that he can not be with us on account of an important consultation. Miss Loquacious . Isn ' t that disappointing? But, then, I suppose a doctor ' s time is never his own, and especially one with such a large practice. Mr. Any man. Is he the famous Dr, Wilson Townsend? Mrs. A nyman. Yes, my dear, and a classmate of ours. Mr. A nyman. Well, I saw in the paper only the other day where he had been elected to the French Academy for the discovery of what he calls a “Febrifugal serum.” Miss Savant Yes, I know of that; the European papers were really quite enthusiastic about his good work. But news of Wilson was all that reached me. Who has heard from Deborah and Helen lately? Miss Jester . Why, I had a letter only a short time ago from Helen. She is now at the head of the commercial department of one of the largest business schools in the West. I suppose, however, commencement exercises have kept her from joining us at this reunion; but you know you can always depend on her to do her share in everything the class undertakes. Miss Loquacious. And as for Deborah—she is a typical, modern, and efficient business woman, and in her work as an executive secretary in Wash¬ ington she has well demonstrated the capabilities of woman in the field of business and finance. (Maid enters and announces a telephone call for Mrs. Anyman on the library phone . After making her apologies, exit Mrs. Anyman with the Maid. ) Mr. Anyman. Do you know that while you ladies were talking I was just trying to picture a class so congenial and yet one whose interests were so broad. School days must indeed have been happy days for you. I don ' t think any of you can possibly realize what an honor it was to be a member of such a wonderful class. (Enter Mrs. Anyman.) 27 The ARROW Cape Charles High School Mrs , Any man. It was Page on the ' phone at the Navy Yard. Pie lias been promoted from commander of the super-dreadnought Virginia to Chief of Operations with the Atlantic squadron and must leave to-night to join the Fleet at New York—isn ' t that wonderful? Miss Loquacious. Yes, Page has advanced steadily ever since he gradu¬ ated from the Naval Academy, But I am so sorry that he can ' t get It ere. Miss Jester. It will almost seem dull without some of the boys present Mrs , Anyman (jokingly). Oh, don’t worry, Evelyn, he’ll be here. I had a short note yesterday from Plarry advising me that he would surely be here to-morrow, I he poor fellow will probably be lonely without any of the boys around. (Turning to Mr, Anyman.) My dear, I think you know Harry—Mr. Harry Wilkins—and we will depend largely on you to entertain him. Mr. Anyman. Yes. I know of Mr, Wilkins in a business way; in fact, there are few business men that don’t know him, as he is quite a power in the business world. It will indeed be quite a pleasure for me to entertain such an interesting man. Mrs. Anyman (glancing at the clock). It is getting late. Now, you girls go to your rooms and dress for dinner—and also prepare yourselves for a novel surprise. Miss Loquacious . I just adore surprises, and yours are always such delightful ones; but, Emily, please don’t keep me in suspense, Mrs. Anyman (laughing). No, Fannie, that would be cruel. I have so planned our dinner that everything served has been taken from the famous “Superlative Farms,” Miss Savant. Are they the farms which Clarence has made so famous? Mrs. Anyman. Yes. After Clarence had established his reputation as the leading scientific agriculturist in the South, he turned his attention to truck farming on a large scale. And, now, housewives living in the large cities are always assured of fresh vegetables of known quality if they buy the celebrated “superlative” variety. Miss Loquacious. Come, girls, let’s hurry. 1 can hardly wait for dinner, (They all go out-—chattering loudly .)

Well, “Eats” we were, and a quotation from “The Pied Piper of Hamlin 1 will amply describe us: “There were great rats, small rats, lean rats, and brawny rats.” On October 18th our class was organized, the following officers being elected: James Nottingham, President; Elizabeth Nottingham, Vice-President; Merril Adkins, Secretary; and Claudia Nottingham, Treas¬ urer. During this year many of our members proved very valuable on the road to athletic success. Our Freshman year passed rapidly and pleasantly, and our term as “Rats” ended with a delightful banquet given to the Seniors and Faculty. During the following summer a metamorphosis took place, which changed us from “Rats” to “Smart Fools,” which in our language means Sophomores. With this change a reorganization had to take place, but we retained the class officers of the previous year with the exception of Denar d Travis, President, and Roy Stevenson, Treasurer. Busy with work and frolics, we did not realize how rapidly time was passing, and, almost before we knew it, the last weeks and even the last days came, bringing us to the end of our Sophomore year. Then on taking a backward look, we wondered if we had done our best. Next year we would be Juniors, and next year held new and coveted experiences for us. Now, we are Juniors! Our class roll has been increased from twenty- five to twenty-eight. With Denard Travis, President; Willard Chandler, Vice-President; Grace Robertson, Secretary; and Charlie Richardson, Treas¬ urer, we hope to overcome our endless problems with flying colors. The first of our merry makings for the year began with a delightful party given at the “Maples,” the home of Miss Estelle Outten. At Christmas, Santa Claus, in the form of the Junior Class, came to the Seniors and Faculty, and extended to them the season’s greetings in token of good-will, as attested by the presents he brought to each one. When the High School Savings Bank became a reality, we Juniors re¬ sponded at once to the system, and, with our regular deposits, who knows but 36 Cape Charles High School The ARROW that some day we shall all be as rich as Croesus Denard Travis is Second Vice-President of the bank; Willard Chandler, Cashier; and Willie White one of the directors Our class play, “The Camouflage of Shirley ' which was given at the High School Auditorium, February 20th, was voted by every one to be a wonderful success.

The class began its career of school life with thirty-two members; but, as the years passed, business, sickness, and, in one case, death has cut the roll down until, as we entered High School, we had but twenty-five members. After entering High School, we lost two of our members before Christ¬ mas, but their places were filled by new ones. After Christmas we lost another one of our members, bringing our number down to twenty-four. No one could doubt the supremacy of the “Rats” on tbe athletic fields. We have members claiming berths on all tbe teams that wear the Purple and Gold. In our first year we had five parties and one oyster roast, and, of course, we thought we gave the best banquet ever given under the auspices of the school. The Freshman Class bid tbe Seniors a fond farewell, and gave them their best wishes for a safe and pleasant journey on the sea of life, and we adjourned for the summer vacation. We came back from the summer holidays full of pep and energy for the coming year’s work. We organized our class and elected John Milligan, President; Willie McGrath, Vice-President; Page Wilkins, Treasurer; and Alice Disharoon, Secretary. As Sophomores we started the social whirlpool by a party, given at the home of John Milligan, which was quickly followed by one at tbe home of Ida Mae Sweeney. We also entertained the Seniors and Faculty at the home of Elizabeth Moore. We staged the play, “The Kingdom of Heart ' s Content,” on April 3Gth. The Sophomores put their usual talent into this and it was a brilliant success. We have had four men on the football team and two on the basket-ball team. All of the boys hoped to make the baseball nine, but if we did not make the team that in no way hindered us in cheering and backing the old school to the limit. The Sophomores extend their greetings to our alumni, and hope that they will continue to do the same good work in the future that they have done in the past. “Time waits for no man,” but in our remaining two years we hope to occupy a great niche in the school’s “Hall of Fame,” and “Departing leave behind us” a better school for the generations that are to come.

There are now eight “Rats” out of a class of twenty-eight that eight years ago were together in the Primer. We began our voyage of four years on September 17, 1919, with twenty- six members. All the upper-classmen tried to tease us by calling us “brags ' and “Rats,” but we only laughed at them and said nothing. Every class except ours was assigned a home room. We were left to be wanderers with only two book cases in which to keep our books, but this did not hinder our progress. We proceeded at once to organize our class with the following officers: Arthur Page Disharoon, President; Elizabeth Hog- wood, Vice-President: Grace Wyatt, Secretary; and Allison Mills, Treasurer. From the first we began to hold a very prominent position in athletics. As our school song goes, “We eat ’em up, chew ’em up, do ’em up fine.” We have had our share in the social activities of the school and have enjoyed them very much. Now, we look forward to our greatest event, v hich will take place at the close of this school year our Inst banquet. This is a mere suggestion of what our class promises to be. Next year we shall not be “Rats,” but Sophomores, and we sincerely hope that none will fall by the wayside, but that all will stick together until we reach our goal, “Graduation in ’23.” Elizabeth Hog wood, 23. 43 The ARROW Cape Charles High School ©lip HaBhumtnn ICtJprary B� ortplg NEW organization has been born amid the already crowded activities of tbe Cape Charles High School. It is the Wash¬ ington Literary Society, whose membership at present in¬ cludes only the students of the Eighth Grade. Though still in its infancy, it has already shown such unusual vigor that, like Hercules, its infantile strength augurs a famous future. The officers, elected at a business meeting on March the 19th, are as follows: Preston Ambler, President; Virginia Wilson, Vice-President; Margaret Disharoon, Secretary and Treasurer; Louise Gladstone, Critic; Page Disharoon, Censor; and Owens Hallett, Sergeant-at-Arms. Allie Mills and Elizabeth Hurlock, together with the president, form the program com¬ mittee. The following motto was chosen: “Better little talent and much purpose, than much talent and little purpose.” The aim of the society has been crystallized in these words: “For instruction, entertainment, and culture.” Our plans include dramatic productions, declamations, oratory, and de¬ bates. In the latter, we intend to challenge some of the other High School classes, and thus prove that we are fearless in the forward step we are making.

We, too, began to smile, and how we forgot our dread of “coming back ’ and really en¬ joyed saying ‘Hello” to everybody and find out what each did during the summer months? And don’t you remember, then, how we tip¬ toed up to the office door and peeped in, as we went slowly by, to get a look at our “new teacher”? Gracious, how sometinies we wondered how we stood all our troubles, and sometimes where the School Board did find - such beauties, and how we began right away to copy the “new styles” which the pretty new ones brought with them? Then, don’t you remember those cold December mornings that we had to crawl out of bed and wake ourselves up with a dash of cold water, and how chewing a mouthful of breakfast we would run to “You Know Where”? Don ' t you? Now, just shut your eyes and don’t you remember that old hell, and how Miss Sara would understand when after school you reported and told her just why the geometry or history, maybe English, would not stay in your desk, and, of course, it wasn ' t ever your fault, was it? Don’t you remember the day before Christmas holidays and the As¬ sembly, and how Mr, Peters looked, smiling from ear to ear, would wish us a Merry Christmas” and a Happy New Year, and how we told all our friends good-bye and wished them the “Merriest Christmas” they have ever had? And don’t you remember how happy we were to get back from vacation to see our old pals again, and how everybody seemed so glad to see us, and how we took one deep, long breath and started on that long run from January to June with the hope of a little intermission of two days at Easter; and, my! don’t you remember the plans we used to make for those two short days, which, if we had carried out, would have taken at least two 1 months?

Business began with a rush, because of the fact that the pupils caught the spirit and realized that it was their own organization. Total deposits up to March 19th reached $333,42. A significant fact is that 76 per cent of the pupils are regular depositors. This organization is run on the same plan as the city banks, there being regularly elected officers and directors.

We have entered whole-heartedly in this life and have enjoyed it, for it has brought us into contact with each other more closely than ever before. Although we have spent more time at social gatherings, but by no means have we let this interfere with our work. We have remembered the old adage, All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, so we have reached the happy medium and have had some of each. The social events may be summed up as follows: The Senior events were a hayride given by the class for the High School Faculty, and a back¬ wards party given by the entertainment committee to the class and teachers. The greatest feature yet enjoyed by the Seniors was a Valentine party given at the home of Amy Burbage, with the Williamsburg Basket-Ball Team as the guest of honor. Among the other social gatherings enjoyed by the Seniors were the parties given by the Juniors and Sophomores.

In these contests we established a record by scoring over a point a minute for time played The latter part of October we journeyed to East- ville and returned with their scalps, the score being 36-6. Franktown expressed a desire to meet us, and on November 7th we overcame their resistance by the score of 5S-0, On November 24th our eleven again met Eastville This time we ran around and plunged through her line to the tune of 57-3.

At night of the same clay we played Williamsburg and won from them to the tune of 26-6. February 6th, Hampton came over fully expecting to give us a walloping, but their expecta¬ tions were nipped off in the bud, for we played them to a tie. the final score being 19-19, The boys from “Nutville came on February 14th seeking revenge, but alas! we hate to tell the score, it is in the “mournful numbers” of 63-13. On February 23d, in a somewhat rough game, the boys of the Purple and Gold defeated Wachapreague High by the score of 54-14, At Hampton, March 2d, we were taken down a peg, Hampton defeated us 38-11. We assembled in Prnden’s Temple, Friday night, March 5th. with the intention of defeating Old Point College, and believe us we did it by the close score of 27-23. The following Tuesday Old Point sought revenge on their own floor to the numbers of 38-11. Thus endeth our season.
