LETZEISER MEDAL Six of these medals are given each year to the six Seniors, three boys and three girls, who rank highest in scholarship and in participation in school activities. Win- ning this medal represents the highest honor granted to a member of the student body. This plan of recognizing merit was originated by Letzeiser 8z Company, manu- facturing jewelers of this city who have donated the medals each year. - SENIOR CLASS PIN, 1917 P I X,i??7'1'-ZQSHQDQ QQ Q fait HUQYTQIW7 , Q, X. ,A V 2 fi f 1-9 X ,,,5 i f g I ,Rf , f , ,, ,ggi XJ N SEPTEMBER, 1913, some six hundred prospective students might have been seen ascending the steps of O. H. S. At the assembly following E' Q 5 a four-year sentence was handed out to the luckless ones in the form of 6 J program cards bearing mystic symbols, afterward found to denote various . 'Q rooms. - B A few days later these same Freshmen drifted toward C 16, where 5 J Howard Hinman was elected to lead the class. He was succeeded in the spring by Roy Fisher. Miss Short, Miss Welday, Miss Allison, and Mr. Roberts volunteered to guide the class to victory, in other words to do all they could to help the class obtain diplomas. Besides studying very diligently, the Freshmen found time to give a very successful class party during the Christmas vacation, and in the winning of the Cross-Country Shield, the loyalty of the boys of the class was apparent. The next fall, clothed in the unmistakable wisdom of Sophs, we again repaired to C 16, where Roy Fisher was re-elected as our leader. No branch of school activity was neglected, for the worthy Sophs branched out and made decided strides in debating and athletics. Somewhat fewer in number but not the least daunted in spirit, and with that unmis- takable air of superiority that is inseparable from the envied Juniors, we selected Leland Hartford, first term, and Allen Duncan, second term as class presidents. That year, we truly made history. in debate Allen Duncan, Norton Lewis and Elsmere Rickard carried the class to victory, while in athletics, Ernest Vahlberg, Lawrence Thing, Lee Parrish, Roy Fisher, Oliver Wells, Howard Bottger and Raymond Johnson upheld the honor of the class. By the Junior-Senior reception we unquestionably made our mark in the social world, when we gave the departing Seniors such a send-off as no other graduating class ever received. , On the last year of our high school work, we entered with fresh hopes and renewed energy, the results of which have more than justified our efforts. In debating and athletics we even eclipsed the record of our Junior year. The Student was managed largely by Seniors, t'The Mikado had a large representation of Seniors in the cast, and who has not heard of the success of the Senior play, The Half- Back?', We have attained the desire of our high school days, have realized the hopes which we have so fondly cherished: graduation and a diploma. Now we go forth, some to col- lege, some to immediate participation in life with sentiments of happiness not entirely free from feelings of sadness that accompany us when we leave a phase of our work,- an epoch of our lives, forever. We regret leaving O. H. S., the scene of so many of our joys, our sorrows, hopes and failures, for she has been a mother to us and we but imperfect children. But in after years we shall look back to our Alma Mater, hallowed by the golden haze of intervening years, with joyful feelings unalloyed by sorrow or regret.

's Tyranny of French heels and Earrings. Side-by-side with this poster was . another, equally large and equally imposing, this one a picture of a man K I with bushy Hughes Whiskers and below it the title The Honorable Clare Frye--Democrat-Our Next President. Platform-The Noble one of Low Tariff on Oriental Rugs and Cigarettes. A man in a swivel chair whirled around and glared at the stenographer. Miss Nliller-how dare you put that up in my office, he objected. Don't you know this is a democratic office? Oh yes, Mr. Ford, answered the secretary coolly. But l want you to know how our next President looks. With such excellent Lieutenants as Claire Galloway, Lillie Bilderback, and Kittie Shanklin backing her, l am sure she will win. t'And what's that other picture you have just put up? asked the man pointing to one of those startling effects in futurist design. Thatls a copy of the newest picture by those famous artists, Maysie Hughes, Nlinna Bourrus, Rudolph Blesh and Corinne Gilbert. Raymond Williams and Elsmere Rickard were the models. The original picture was purchased by that oil millionaire, John Gallo- way for the art room in his wonderful home designed by Raymond Johnson and Warren Lyons, who have suddenly developed into great architects. They say that house is wonderful, all the inner decorating was done by Kate Landrum who is an interior deco- ratorf' You needn't take so much pain in decorating the wall, remarked the Lawyer. l've just received a note from Katherine Burd saying if the rent for this office is not paid by Monday, we will have to move. l might try the building owned by Oscar Gilbert and Clifford Powers. t'Well you can't blame Katherine Burd can you? The rent has been due for three months and- ' Well, I didn't say l did blame her did l? inquired the lawyer irritably. You mustn't be feeling well, surmised the Secretary. You're so cross. You should try some of Verna Gilliland and Lael Brown's cod liver oil. lt's a wonderful tonic. Cod liver oil, nothing grumbled the employer. There's nothing the matter with me that money wouldn't cure. This dismal conversation --me interrupted by the arrival of the postman. A lanky office boy handed a huge pile of letters to the lawyer who received them with a scowl. 63 , No need to open these, he said. U1 already know the contents. That's a bill from Chester McCloud, electric fixtures. This is for stationery from Virginia Simler and Berta Hawkins, successors to Hartwell's, and here's note from Bessie Quinn, Viola Jayne and Tivis Nelson, that if I want my watch l must get it out of pawn to-day. Here are the Chamber of Commerce dues from Clotilde Quigley, the secretary. The secretary wearily thrust a large white envelope into the waste paper basket. Another dream shattered she announced bitterly. Ruth Patterson, Charles Catlin, and Evelyn Henniger, proof-readers for McWhorter's Magazine, have just returned my last story, and look at the irony of fate, right beside my rejected story, is the advertise- ment of a new book by Thelma Lovejoy, 'tHow to Write the Successful Short Story. Well what do you think of this? ejaculated the lawyer. Here's a letter from Charles Jolly who is down in Borneo helping to civilize the natives. He says Eunice Conner, Clara Armstrong, Hugh Carter, Hazel Elder and Howard Brown are there too. Fred Biendorf and Muriel Bate are there teaching them to dance-that will help civilize- while Orville Baxter and George Borecky play the 'tSouth Sea Isles every evening as most appropriate. Paul Suits, the Soldier of Fortune, has the reputation of smoking the pipes of peace longer than any of the natives even. Charles says they had a thrilling time last week. There was a native uprising in which Grayston Musgrave was scalped, and the poor fellow had a most pitiful time without his hair until Roy Durham who was can- vassing Borneo for the Ronald McCune Hair Tonic Company persuaded him to try that famous tonic, and now to his great delight, Grayston has three new hairs. He is quite hopeful now. John Fain has provided quite a little romance for the community by marrying a beautiful Bornean lady and is most happy with his berry-brown Queen. Think of it. Here's a letter from Josephine Thurston, dear, dear old Jo, she's in Baltimore now as representative of that new bread, made without flour, originated by Ruth Farnsworth. Florence Flaxman is there singing in recitals-And-oh listen-she says, Be sure and see that famous movie play written by Mary Rowe- Wasted Heart Throbs of Christabelf' The picture is directed by Monroe Condit, yes, Cliffe Dodd and Otis Osborne star in it. Scenic artist is Ralph Taylor--l'll wager it's splendid. Jo goes on to say, Those confirmed old bachelors, Vaile Mclntyre, Clarence King and Oliver Wells, have all moved there. A , Speaking about bachelors, began the lawyer. There's that Clarence Penny---7' Oh, no, haven't you heard? Why it is so romantic--Clarence went to the theatre while in Chicago. There he met and loved a beautiful young actress. That actress was none other than Mary Mitchell. They were married last week by the Reverend Lee Sie- bert, and are now on their honeymoon to Ireland where Ruth Flynn is President of the new Irish Republic. Well that is romantic, replied Mr. Ford. Yes, and listen to the rest of the letter. Margaret Johnson, Muriel Rummel, Elizabeth Jenkins, and Mary Overholser have established an Old Maid's Home, a rival establishment to the Bachelor's Quarters. Elnora Homan, overcome with her strenuous Student Work, is now in a sanitarium, which is managed by Charles Shank and Merle Needham. Another bill, complained the lawyer viciously thrusting a small blue envelope into the waste basket. Salliefaye Hendon, Harriet Gans, and Vivian Love want me to pay my dentist bill. Alma Warner, Lois Townsend, Lola Stone, lrene Pelcher, Doris Vertrees, and Helen McBath request my help with' their orphan's home. t'What do you think of this, cried the secretary rising wrathfully and crushing fiercely in her hand a paper pamphlet. The idea of sending this to me. What is it? H 1 t aEQf 5tsHDEnt lt's-ftreatise on How to get thin by Melrose Brown. The circular states that Ethel Gibbs'used it with wonderful success--only weighs one hundred and sixty pounds. But think of sending such a poster to me! n 'tHumph, here's a free ticket, observed the attorney. ln the contest for better Cats. It's from Louise Cook, Gladys Bruce, and Bertye Pace. The'lanky office boy interrupted. Twelve o'clock, sor. Want any dinner? t'You bet, my son. Run over to the Palace Hotel and return with a tray. While we're waiting, l'll read this letter from Kent Hays of Washington, D. C. Picking up the letter, he began to read slowly: Well what do you think of this? Poor old Reed Young. What about Reed? Why poor old fellow, he lost his mind from studying too much in O. H. S. and now he is in an institution for the insane, managed by Mary Price, Audra Welson, Lois Smith, Bessie Patrick, Helen Olsen, and Lucy Penny. 'tOh isnlt that pitiful. '.'Kent says that last evening he went to a Spiritualist meeting held by Ruby Lee, Elizabeth Kiefer, Ruth Patton, and Lucy Smith, the four spiritualists had an interview with the ghost of Harold Clark, however, they were quite angry to discover a few days later that Harold was very much alive and ranching in Arizona. ' The letter goes on to say that he met Robert Boggs and Lawrence Thing, Senators from Oklahoma, also Clarence Wilkins, Ambassador to Peru and his secretary Merle Lingenfelter. Later, he met the lion of the day, Gayle Williams, the daring explorer and tiger hunter. Elinor and Kathryn lttner are there trying to get a patent for their new face powder, that only has to be used once a day. The attorney closed the letter and put it on the desk. f'Why doesn't that boy come back with lunch, he complained. 'tAh, here he comes, But instead of the longed for lunch, nothing appeared but an old shaggy-haired man, who thrust a paper into the room and disappeared. More circulars grumbled the attorney rising and picking it up Then he laughed and held up the vividly colored paper. On the paper were the pictures of a quite short girl and a tall slim man and below in great black letters was printed: Mary Neel Lee Parrish Vaudeville artists: Comedy Sketch. The Long and the Short of it. Funniest Comedy Team in the World. Wish l could go, he remarked putting the circular upon a chair. I always knew that was Mary Neel's logical destination. I understand Dana Lewis, the famous pianist and Donald Danvers, the baritone, are to be here also, and next week Vesta Hastings, the pianist, is to be featured by Bryan Wilson and Delcie Hall. The door slowly opened, and James the office boy, reappeared-but empty handed. Where's the lunch? inquired the hungry lawyer. 65 Sorry sor, but the proprietors of the Palace Hotel, Katheryn Cannedy, Era Currie, Monta McFaden and Doris Forgy refuse to credit you longer. The lawyer sank back limply into his chair, then as an afterthought went through his pockets carefully one by one. The result of his labor was a five cent piece. 'tSay! said the office boy interrupting this spectacle of silent offering. Could you manage to pay me before the twenty-fourth? For answer, the lanky youth pulled out of his pocket a crumpled paper, and handed it to his employer. lt was a gayly colored advertisement of Bullard Bros Circus, and in half inch letters it promised thrills never felt before. All the attractions from the bare- back rider, Henrietta Boyd, Elizabeth Scott, the lion tamer, Ella Opsal, the snake charmer, William Lightfoot, the clown, to Howard Bottger, the trapeze performer were the best in circusdom. The silence after this momentous disclosure was broken by the sharp guttural cry of a newsie. Extra! Extra! Then a small ragged urchin trust his head through the partly opened door and repeated with a rising inflection: 'tExtra? Read all about the awful scandal. Society lady run off wid the shutferf' Fingering the five cent piece thoughtfully, the lawyer reluctantly handed it over to the urchin. After all what good is a stray nickle anyway? ' Then he opened the paper. The interested secretary peered over his shoulder too. Then both uttered an exclamation of surprise. How shocking! Ran off with a chauffeur! And Lois Chandler too! Her husband James McConnel chased the elopers but missed tire and hit Donald Clark, a policeman, instead. Why l never was so shocked in my life! And look here! Here is an account of the divorce of Anna Knight and Howard Baugh on the grounds of incompatibility of temperament, Anna, it seems prefers Grand Opera while Howard likes Musical Comedies. Charles Ames was Anna's Lawyer. And see this. The popular young actor, Paul Abernathy, injured last evening at the theatre when he fell into the scenery while making an exit. Dr. Ruby Boydston, how- ever, reports recovery certain. I like Allen Duncan's paper so much, remarked the secretary. 'tThere are so many interesting features. Each morning Willard Hyler has a little poem in. Blanche Stanley is editor of Heart Throbs and a very good one she makes, Society News is so interesting too, with Lou-ise Keith as its editor. See these society notes. Miss Thyra Weesner, tennis champion of the world, is here visiting, and the Federation of Women's Clubs under the direction of their president, Miss Dorothy Prouty, is planning a big enter- tainment in her honor. There is going to be a big dinner given for the Captains. who became famous in the Great War, Horace Solliday, Herbert Holcomb and Ernest Harkins, and for our brave red cross nurses, Ruth Neff, and Katherine Zartman who went into Mexico, Frieda Erlewine, Elizabeth Gould, Viola Gattung, and Maybeth Gillette who went to France, and Howard Laughlin who discovered a fearful pro-German plot in Mexico. Norton Lewis is to be speaker of the evening. You know he had so much to do with ending the Great War. He invented such an attractive medal to reward the bravery of our soldiers that the enemy came over on our side to receive it too. t'There's to be a teachers' convention here tomorrow read the secretary. Eula Huffines, Claire Hauck, Marguerite Creamer, Mary McNair, Irene Smith, Helen Webb, and Marye Rodgers are among those coming. They are to hold their meetings at the High School of which Miss Norine Scott is principal. The subject of the discussion is to 66 be Is Corporal Punishment Mild Enough for Pupils Who Throw Chalk Out of the Windows? Did you know that Joe Lewis had become successor to Mrs. Claussen, and is now selling six beans for ten cents? That's pretty high for beans isn't it? Newell Lessenger, who has such a model farm, advertises tifteen for ten cents. Think how much .Ioe makes at the Cafeteria. Humph, commented the lawyer. Helen Gupton has been arrested again for speeding. The police oiTicers here are becoming terribly severe on the owners of cars since the publication of Rowena Estes' new Dictionary on Crime. ln that, on page 446, it says: lf a driver is caught driving in an auto above forty miles an hour and the law of the state explicitly states the speed limit to be tifteen miles, the person may then legally be arrestedf' Judge William Eastland is certainly strict. Did you read this little article? inquired the attorney. t'Some ostriches from the ostrich farm of Marguerite Kerr, Hazel Stomp, Tempie Smith and Marjory Wilcock escaped and went over to Ernest Vahlberg's orange grove and ate all the oranges. Ernest was furious and threatened the owners with damages. But happening to meet Marjory Wil- cock, he dropped his suite quite suddenly, and now they have started out as partners in a Lace Curtain Manufacturing Company. Here's an advertisement of Ruth Laurence's splendid Spanish Dictionary in which she was assisted by that Spanish shark, Raymond Dolan. And here's an advertisement of fresh eggs from the chicken ranch of lva Drake and Vella Drawver, only seventy cents a dozen. lsn't that cheap? The attorney turned ruefully from the contemplation of Fresh Eggs Cheap to his bills. Here's another one, he groaned, from my tailors, Louis Otto, Owen Moss, and Reuben Frost. Sorry old men, but you'll have to wait. Here's a bill from my milliner, Jean West and Jewell Young, and here's one from my manicurists, Anna Rice, Doris Pinnell, Julia Petty and Lela Sautbine. ls there no end to bills? There was a loud rap at the door and without waiting for an answer, a man in over- alls entered. Come for the desk, he announced. Mr. Roy Fisher ain't furnishing your office for his health. He stalked over to a small desk and coolly rolled it away. The erstwhile owner gazed after him, as in a stupor. A small blue letter fell to the floor from the pack of still unopened letters and the lawyer stooped to pick it up. My balance overdrawn at the bank he groaned. t'This is a letter from Walter Ledgerwood, the president. And here's a letter from Merle Geeslin and Gale James, threatening to take my typewriter if I don't pay soon. l'd hate to lose that typewriter. Nolan Haines and Benjamin Hume did a good job when they invented that. Can't you borrow any money? Hugh NlcGilvory and Jennings Thompson lend money. But not to me-that is no more, answered the dejected attorney. Well, you're going to have to close up the office andln t'Close up the office?'i t'Huh, there wonit be anything left to close but the doorf' t'-and travel for some good company. Alfred Goldberg, Dewey Reudy, Warren Pool, Frank Pearson, Aaron Newman, and Will Phillips have been just coining money working for the Georgia Rogers and Helen Shear striped stocking factory. The door opened again and a grubby looking individual stepped in. 67 l'm from the Standard Rug Company he stated. All three directors, Curtis Tullis, Edward Snyder and Herman Rogers have decided-- Yes, l know, cash or no rug wearily interrupted the temporary owner. The man nodded, and quickly began to roll up the carpet. I'm afraid you'll have to get another place, said the lawyer to his secretary. There isn't going to be any place left here. Well, l could get a place as private secretary with Nliss Dorothy Whiteford, who is going to marry that handsome English Lord, or with Miss Virginia Quinlin who is lectur- ing now. Nlr. Ford here? It was a messenger boy who spoke. f'Here, answered that gentleman reaching for the telegram and wearily opening it. He read it through twice with a startled air, then rose and, standing, read it through again. Then he whistled softly and unbelievingly. Such luck, he murmured. HThey've struck oil on that ground Gerald Nlobley and l bought. l'm rich now. HELEN B. MILLER, RICHARD FORD. xxx f' 4 5 2 3 5 if Q' if if 1'?? 53 E ' 1 3' Z. 2 L1 E 5 1 f Ns? li 1 X?

As we pass with various and sundry schemes, and much bluffing from the vigilant eyes of our respected and scholarly faculty, we bequeath to our successors, the Juniors, all the adoring looks and admiration of the Worshipful Sophs and timid Freshmen, accompany- ing our dignitied position as Seniors. To the future Boosters we leave all the time occu- pied by us in assembly, also to the Junior Class, as a whole, we leave our much loved middle section, where we were best qualified to hear all speeches regarding our bright and shining faces. The front rows especially do we bequeath to the future Senior boys, those coveted seats, where they may have the opportunity to drown out all other yelling in assembly. We also leave, with our deepest compassion, to the Junior Class, all our 'tleft-overs or flunkers with the hopes that the said members of the Junior Class will help them find their places in the Class of '18, ART. 2. Our much-loved Portia Club we tearfully relinquish to the winsome Junior girls, to be cared-for by its mothers, Miss Ferris and Miss Hansen. We hope they will enjoy it as we have. ART. 3. To the future debaters we leave that new and weighty question, HRESOLVED: That it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. We will to the Junior girls the art whereby the boys may prove this. ART. 4. We bequeath to the students of O. H. S. blocks and blocks in which to park their cars. Also the telephones, within walking distance, in case of an extreme emergency-such. as going to the Empress-when you simply must call mother or dad. ART. 5. As a place of retreat in dire necessity, we leave our superb rest-room, with its pillowy OJ cushions, on which may rest all those splitting heads, not learned in the art of t'stalling C? J, or those unfortunates who have neglected to write the overdue book- review, but only on the condition of this warning: lf you wish to while away suspicion- the cause of so much heartache among our worthy scholars-ask for a drop of camphor, or tearfully admit that mother always administers hot tea.' ART. 6. To our revered faculty we will all the paper the School Board may deem it fitting to purchase, for the purpose of noting down their loved attitude lists, and the memories of our glorious failures. Our heartiest and best wishes to all the members of the faculty. ART. 7. We sorrowfully give up the cream of our possessions, the cafeteria, to those who are in need of substantial nourishment for their fatigued bodies, crushed by so much knowledge which the teachers force them to carry! tal l . 6.1 69 towe r ART. S. To the athletic members of the sister classes we will the trophies of our much-earned victories. Also to the future club members do we leave the memory of our brilliant career in the contests and our places, which we have endeavored to till with entire satisfaction. ART. 9. To the members of the Oklahoma City High School we bequeath the following: 1. The life-saving station across 'the way, where no wary eye of Miss Osborne's assistants will see you refresh your body and spirit with that necessary staff of life-the hamburger. ' 2. The Library, and, incidentally, the Librarian to can you for speaking your mind-or your heart-aloud. 3. All our loud socks and clothes for Hobo Day in hopes that they will tit perfectly -especially the old barrels! 4. The Science rooms and laboratories, where opportunity is given you to show your ignorance by breaking seventy-Eve cent C75cj glasses and certain of the test tubes. 5. Our well-thumbed books and reviews of translation of Latin, at a certain interest charged for each word, and the lessons written in said books. 6. Our lockers with any of our stray property, still warm with life-i. e., powder puffs, vanity cases, excuses, pipes or tobacco and old keys. 7. Our particular property-the front hall, and the special privileges gained thereon. 8. To the future members of the clubs do we leave the memories of our parties and good times, and hope the influence of this bequest will not be lost entirely. 9. All extra credits not needed by us we bestow upon those who would otherwise fail to get the coveted sheepskin. ' 10. As an example to those who wish to be model couples we bequeath the careers of Mary and Vaile, Ruth and Bob. ART. 10. As most essential is the following advice: First, lf anyone, working in a class with Miss Delo, has, for some unfortunate reason, failed to prepare his lesson, will mildly inquire whether war is ever excusable, or likely to be declared on U. S., he will start an argument which will take up most of the class time, thereby gaining the thanks of all members of the class. Second, lf anyone desiring to escape the dreaded t'4 in Physics, will kindly have the premeditation to buy a second-hand book in which most of the problems will probably already be written out, he will certainly achieve his under- taking. ART. 11. Last, but not least, to our succeeding heirs, he leave the greatest treasure of all, our beautiful High School Building, around which clings many happy memories and associations. Subscribed and sworn before us this ninth day of April in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and seventeen. . HELEN G. MILHOLLAND, CLARENCE L. KING.

Une of QSM -fa? jollity, responsiveness and eagerness, yes, all this, and more, too, has -ft E characterized this class. its participation has always added a little more Q D to every event, not because of superior ability, but because of greater 'L endeavor, greater longing to be acknowledged a true supporter of O. H. go, S, in its aspirations, activities, and attainments. sf A These same Juniors enrolled in '14 as Freshmen-the same aspiring Freshmen that have always graced this school, but what wonders have been worked by this forceful class. In '15, the Juniors and Seniors began to see the possibilities of the class and to strengthen their own efforts to surpass the class of '18, Then in September '16, the Freshmen, who had entered but two years before, were Juniors. They began to do the work of the Higher Classmen, to battle with the Seniors. They inherited the spirit of other Junior Classes and thus started to mold the enviable reputation, which they have aspired to leave behind them. If anyone should go so far as to ask why this Junior Class has been so prominent, he would find that it is due not only to the spirit of the class, but to certain individuals. Paxton Howard has been our president during the two semesters and under his leader- ship we took many forward steps. In athletics we have Herbert Nloerschel, Dick Lawrence, Russel Hardy, and Myron Tyler as worthy representatives, but the girls too have done their part. Seven made the debate teams, besides the great number that participated in the several dramatic contests among the girls' clubs of the High School, and when it comes to making money, the girls are efficient Gnanciers. Now that they have won all the laurels ever alloted to any Junior Class, and that they have accomplished all the tasks that they started out to perform, let this end the narrative toast, but, here's to the Classmen of '18 again! May they accept and uphold with becoming dignity the title of Seniors and be glad of the opportunity. , v lllll llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllw WWIHHHHH'Wmmmvllllllllllllll LE ltlllll zi.111 llllll Q fall 1 N YD if MM' E HAVE now passed one more mile stone in our life at 0. H.

When the count was taken after the cross-country it , was found that the ttSophs came first. On the girls basketball shield M J will be found the numerals, 19. We have faithfully done our share toward supporting The Student, poems, which are always welcomed by the Staff, have been contributed by Evelyn Pruitt, Maggie Bell Young, Charlotte Purkey, and Winifred Cross. For artistic talent the work of Frances Wahl on the Mikado costumes would do credit to any experienced artist and Gladys Gorman's pose drawings took all three prizes at the Oklahoma State Fair. Speaking of the Mikado , in the chorus we tind many well known f'Sophs g while playing the Title Role is Phil Boyle. Let us not overlook the fact that we have three men on debate teams: A. G. Camp- bell, Rowan Taliaferro, Charles France. The other classes of O. H. S. have found that the Sophomore Class is ready and right there in the support of all school activities, as shown by the way Helen Boyle responded when the girls called for a Yell Leader.

DW it came to pass that in the Second Year of the Reign of King Wellenieyer 4-E? ?fa there came into the Temple of Learning. a vast and mighty army of the is D Children of Freshmen. , v Moreover, This People's Mighty Counsellors were, Faith, daughter ' I of Campbell, Glenivere, daughter of Ringland, Loda, daughter of Hall, Lillian, daughter of Griifithg Bessie, daughter of Bairdg Cecil, son of R J Connorg and Kenneth, son of Kaufman. And they called unto the Children of Freshmen and spake saying: Ye must have a Great Captain, over all. And the Children of Freshmen answered and said: William, son of Mauzy shall be our Captain. A And there was Great Rejoicing throughout the Temple. And it Came to Pass, that on the Sixteenth day thereafter, there was held a Great Feast in the Temple of Learning. And in the Second Month of the Following Year the King Commanded his Captains to number the Children of Freshmen. And the Army was examined by the Most High Judges and all the Children of Freshmen were promoted in Rank by King Wellemeyer. And, Lo! the time was at hand for the keeping of the Feast of lncomers, and great Numbers came from all the Country of Oklahoma City to revel with the Children of Freshmen in the Temple of Learning. And in the days that followed, there was strife between the Children of Freshmen and all the Tribes of the Temple of Learning. And it Came to Pass that Scott, son of Francis, famed in Strength of Limb and Proven in Valor, was judged by the King and his Counsellors among the Mighty Men of the Temple and to him a Cup was given, after his Kind. And now the days drew nigh when All the Tribes should go on a Long Journey to gain strength for Another Year, and these days were tilled with Many Things. And it Came to Pass, that at the Appointed Time. the Children of Freshmen were again advanced in Rank by King Wellemeyer and another Tribe reigned in its stead.

At the beginning of our football season the prospects for a winning team looked unusually bad. Only three old men were back and Coach Thompson was on the Nlexican border. However, Coach Schlabach soon had the boys out working, and by September 29th our team was able to hold the champion Chickasha eleven down to a tie-13 to 13. The following week-end we surprised Shawnee with a 16 to 0 victoryf We ran up the largest score of the season against El Reno-87 to 0. lt was so we used some of our second-string material. The victories continued-Enid was beaten 22 to 13 on her own grounds. We met our Grst defeat, from a high school team, when Shawnee avenged her defeat to the tune of 17 to 7. El Reno was whitewashed 21 to 6, with many of our subs in the game on November 10th. The return game with Enid registered a 42 to 6 score for the Red and Black. On a muddy field our light team was set back by Wichita-26 to 10. On Thanksgiving day Chickasha dashed our championship hopes and ended the foot- ball season for 1916-17, by capturing 19 points to our 7. Roy Garner. ran 95 yards for a touchdown, our only score. The football season can be termed a very successful one in many ways. Although we didn't win the Central Conference Championship, we developed some all-star material. Newberne secured a berth at guard on the All-State high school team, while Hardy, Harkins, Tyler, and Swatek were awarded their respective positions on the All- easy, Conference team. Coach Schlabach worked wonders with the bunch, developing a light and fast machine which was feared throughout the Conference. The style of play was of the forward passing variety, perfected to an extent which would have done credit to Bennie Owen himself. - At the end of the season, the following men received the regulation football letter: Fisher, Cole, Hardy, Lawrence, Bottger, Tyler, Thing, Nloerschel, Newberne, Garner, Young, Ledgerwood, Crow, Swatek, and Powers. Myron Tyler was elected captain for next year, and since about eight of the old men will be back again, the chances of producing a championship team are exceedingly good. 107 HE: ,S'rul 'r mg?

For the first time in two years O. H, S. had an interscholastic basket ball team. Knowing that we had championship material in our school, the student body pledged its Hnancial support, and the rest was easy. Winning thirteen games and losing only three, we were declared the champions of the Central Conference. Of the three defeats, one was at the hands of Chickasha, from whom we won three games, and two were administered by Shawnee, from whom we won two in the return series. A Our quintet entered an invitation tournament at Edmond, the understanding being that the winner of this series would be declared the State Champions. There were four entries: Chickasha, runner-up in the Central Conference, Pond Creek, winner of Phillips University tournament, Ramona, winner of Central State Normal tournament, held only a few days before, and Oklahoma City, champions of the Central Conference. Ramona defeated Pond Creek and U. H. S. won from Chickasha. Ramona refused to play off the Hnals with O. H. S., hence no decision was reached. Regulation basket ball letters were awarded to the following men at the end of the season: Wells, Bottger, Cole. Fisher, Beindorf, Johnson, and Ledgerwood.

Coach Thompson, aided hy Mr. Welch and Mr. Smigelski after war was declared, developed a team which tied for first place in the Stillwater meet and which ran third in the meet at Norman. At Stillwater, the O. H. S. team made thirty-four points, tyinguwith Hennessey High School, for Hrst place. This is a summary of the events our boys won: Bottger, first in discus, second in shot-put, and second in javeling Francis, second in mile, and second in half-mile, Parrish, tirst in 440-yard dash, Thing, second in pole vault? Johnson, second in high hurdles, Vahlberg. third in half-mile, Steanson, third in mile, Fisher, third in low hurdles, and our relay team won second in the relay. On Nlay 3rd, our chance of winning the meet at Norman fell far below par, for Howard Bottger, who won eleven points for us in the Stillwater meet, received a sudden attack of the measles. Undaunted, however, carloads of rooters accompanied our track men to the University City, where we made the following splendid showing: Francis, tirst in mile, and tirst in half-mile, Johnson, second in discus? Parrish, second in 440-yard dash, and Fisher, third in low hurdles. When the smoke had cleared away, Cherokee, our old rival, had scraped together thirty-four points, Norman, our ancient enemy, had picked up twenty-six. and our total summed up seventeen. Regardless of the war and the measles, we ran third. At our annual presentation assembly, the following men were presented with regu- lation track letters: Fisher, Francis, Parrish, Johnson, Bottger, Vahlberg, Thing, and Steanson. The surprise of the season was the showing made bv Scott Francis, a Freshman, in the meets at Stillwater and at Norman. With such a nucleus to build around, O. H. S. should do great things in track next year. Ill H55 D 7 fWWEWTi CUP WINNERS IN THE CROSS-COUNTRY RUN Stalldillgr L2lwrenCe Thing. Scott Francis.

Each year embryo track men train months for this chance to win a cup and gain some honor for the class which they represent. Running true to dope, Ernest Vahlberg turned the corner out by the State Capital and trotted down the home stretch to victory, in the eighth annual cross-country run. In spite of a strong south wind, he traversed the two-and-a-half-mile course in the remark- able time of fourteen minutes Hat. Lawrence Thing, Horace Solliday, and Scott Francis finished second. third and fourth, respectively. The first three men were Seniors, while the fourth was a Freslnnan, The Sophomores won the shield from the Juniors by a very small margin, and are therefore entitled to their numerals engraved upon it.

The Sophomore girls have had a remarkable team since they entered O. l-l. S.. Last year they ran second to the graduating Seniors in the class series. With the victors ot last year out of the way, no other team seemed able to check them on their drive to the championship. With the exception of one game lost to the Freshmen, their record is unblemished. Because of winning this inter-class series, the Sophomores are allowed to engrave their numerals upon the Girls' Basket Ball shield. 4 114 D 2 i 3 S s Top rowzi Edwin Snyder, Lee Parrish.

The tirst game of the series was the most exciting, but the Seniors won out by :t few points. The confidence gained by them in their irst clash and victory' was one of the decisive factors in each struggle.

S. has maintained a very high standard of plays this year. Four overwhelming successes, The Heiress Hunters , The Merchant of Venice Up-to-date , t'The Mikado , and The Half-backy' have been produced by the student body and the faculty. More attention was given to the details of the various productions this year than ever before. Scenery and its natural sub-divisions were outlined and the plans carried out by the students and instructors of the Art Department. The orchestra, under the supervision of the Music Department, worked faithfully in order to give a touch of the legitimate to the dramatic offerings of the groups and organizations. The general success of this year's Dramatics may be attributed to a recognition of the fact that an otherwise good show may fall flat if the smallest details are neglectedg and to a hearty C0-operation between the different departments of the institution. 117 os ,.,. f ,Q A, zz?

The proceeds of the play were used to purchase the moving picture machine which is now installed in our Auditorium, I By the request of the Federated Patron's Club, the play was repeated on November 29th, for the purpose of raising funds for charity. ln this way, the sum of two hundred eighty dollars was provided for the purchase of shoes for the needy of the city.

There were a number of prominent musicians in the audience, and according to them, the Mikado was one of the best if not the greatest production ever witnessed in the Oklahoma High School. ln a play of this kind too much cannot be said in praise of the director. Miss Worley worked very persistently in an effort to show the music circles of Oklahoma City what could be done along a musical line with amateur performers, The scenery, which was painted by the High School Art Department, was very typical in that it portrayed the architecture and foliage of Japan.

After paying the couch, Miss Wolcott, and satisfying the pecuniary demands of 11 staff of scene painters, :i surplus was found to exist, but was immediately turned over to the Annual Committee. 110 l L+, ,, - t wa ng Synopsis Grant Hayden, a young man of unusual talent as a sculptor, is informed that his father, supposedly rich, is suddenly rendered bankrupt. ln order to keep his younger brother, Bob, at Nlarden College. Grant withholds the news, and, giving up all school activities, enters the contest for a tive thousand dollar prize in sculpture. Because Grant is such a strong member on the football team, Coach Clark insists that he report for practice, but Hayden confides in no one but Professor Sumner, an instructor in archaeology at the institution. Disgusted with the continued dissipations of Woolfe, star half on the team, and urged on by the repeated proddings of the coach, Grant finishes his work, and is ready to oust Woolfe from the team. The latter, who is naturally not in favor of any such proceeding, with the aid of Watassa, Indian maiden, destroys the piece of sculpture which Grant has prepared, and, in the consternation following, Bob, who loves Watassa, and wishes to protect her, takes the blame. Watassa, perceiving that she has been aiding an enemy of the school in Woolfe, helps Grant to prepare another entry for the contest. The latter is thus free to go in and help win the big football game with Siddell. The humor of the play is very aptly displayed in the characters of Junius Brooks, a huge member of the Boys' Glee Club, and his sweetheart, Marjory Carson, Miss Priscilla Parmalee, teacher and secret admirer of Professor Summer, and the twins, Dollie and Evelyn or Echo Sylvester. The nickname Echo is used because Evelyn repeats every- thing her sister Dollie says, even repeating the acceptance to Coach Clark's proposal of marriage to Dollie. 126 Qpzacmn f'f:mvRE.9 ,a f - P T' ....

QBrtbe5tra The orchestra by its untiring efforts throughout the school year has done much toward the success of many of the musical and dramatic productions staged in our Audi- torium. Ready at all times, the orchestra was called upon to furnish the music at 'tThe Heiress Hunters, The Mikado, and t'The Half-Back. ' As has been shown by its repeated engagements, the orchestra is one of the best High School orchestras in the State, and reflects much credit upon its director and the High School which it represents. lilf Y , .s.,,-,A QB.

Duncan, Edztur Vol. XXIX, No. 12 PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN UNCERTAIN. After many days of terrinc tight, the Fryeite Party has just about conceded the recent election to the Democrats. Mr. Clare Frye, founder of the new party, is heart broken, especially since his oppon- ent. the Honorable Madame Lois Chandler, seems to have been elected by so over- whelming a majority. Mr. Frye has re- tired to his estate, Bauerberry-on-the- Canadian, said estate being named after his third wife. DOMESTIC SCIENCE A SUCCESS. Howard Bottger, the world famed cook of the 20th Century, who recently estab- lished a domestic science school in the old high school building, says that he is hav- ing most flattering results. Two of his pupils who seem to take great interest in the studies are Chas. B. Ames and Paul Suits. Mr. Bottger will be known as the business partner of Mr. Raymond Wil- liams, in the former Guthrie Grecian Danc- ing Academy. NOTED ENGINEER RETURNS. Miss Dana Lewis, who for several years has been doing bridge construction work in the Andes Mountains, is in the city, and signifies her intention of resuming the managership of the Prouty Cigar Man- ufacturing Co. Miss Lewis, who is look- ing well-as ever-still declares fervently that she never intends to marry. We don't know though. U. S. ARMY ENTIRELY DISBANDED. An Army for defense has become more and more obsolete since the great war of 1917-18, and recently, through the ef- forts of Congressman Roy Fisher, the last of the glorious American Army was dis- banded. Major General Margaret John- ston, is thus thrown out of a position, but rumor has it that Miss Johnston will estab- lish a zoo in this city. Vaile Mclntyre, who was recently declared the missing link, will probably be the first specimen in the menagerie. FASHION HINT. The models of ladies Papier-Masche Trouserines displayed by Dr. Clarence Penny, the Broadway Modiste, show a tendency to conform to the old bloomer idea. A feature which adds. much to Dr. Penny's trouserine is the tiny rutile of frayed crepe paper. Regarding men's styles this season, the half-hubbard skirt is becoming very pop- ular. CARD OF THANKS. I Wish to thank my friends for their many kindnesses and for the beautiful lloral offering given me in my recent be- reavement over the loss of my Chinese Poodle Dog, Pedigreed. Signed-Lee Parrish.

The serum extracted from a dog's chops has been found to be a Permanent Cure for headache. Ruth Farnsworth, professor in Rockefeller Institute, has proved that as long as a dog licks his chops, he never has a headache. ATHENAEANS WIN. The debate last evening between the Athenaeans and Jeffersonians, the two oldest debating societies in Central High School, was heated from beginning to end. The question, t'Resolved, That the tongue of a shoe and the eye of a needle resemble the eye and tongue of man was ably and successfully upheld by the Athenaeans. Mr. Norton Lewis, sponsor of the Forums. presided. A beautiful poem entitled, t'Back to Naturef' was recently contributed by the noted artist, Rudolph' Blesh. The iirst stanza follows: Snow is white, and coal is black, lf your pants are loose, pull in the slack.

Compared with the leading systems and found to be more efficient and also 30 per cent. shorter than any of'them. Not a word sign system, not an abbreviated system. Any word in the English language may be written out full and complete according to sound, whether or not one is familiar with the word. A speed of 150 words to the minute may be obtained in less time than 100 words with any other leading system-a privilege costing us several thousand dollars. No extra cost to you. Thirty Graduates Thirty graduates of the CAPITAL CITY BUSINESS COLLEGE that have been placed in positions within the past few months are now earning a combined monthly salary of 32,4603 an average of 382.00 each. Fourteen of this number earned a combined salary of 3920 the tirst month after leaving school, an average of 365.71 each. The remaining sixteen have been out of school from four to twelve months and are now earning a combined salary of 391540, an average of 3596.21 each. Pretty good returns for a few months, schooling, l should say, and we have many who do even better. The Byrne Simplitied meets the demands of the best business concerns, railroads, Court Rooms, and Civil Service positions better than any other system as is evidenced by the fact that 'our three months graduates are in demand and are actually given preference over other system graduates. They pass the Civil Service examinations, making the highest grades and receiving the first appointments. They also step right into court reporting positions and do the work of experienced stenograplters. This is made possible be- cause the Byrne is Simplified Shorthand, not only easily and quickly learned. but easy to write'fast and accurate.

Young Ladies-H Owing to the fact that so many of our young men have enlisted for the war, and that many more of them will be conscripted, it has made a world of positions to be tilled, and the young ladies will have to hll the most of them. Now is YOUR opportunity. If you will come to our school for a few months, we will tit you for a good position and get it for you as soon as you are ready to take it. Business men realize that they must look to the young ladies for their help, and now is the time for you to get a good position. We are continually having more calls than we can Gil.
