Lois Warner has gained world-wide fame by her latest article entitled “Benefits Derived by Her Who Earns (Ernst).” Morris Decker, the wireless wizzard, is now leading the wireless world as the head of the wireless research laboratories of the United States. Mary Louise Socia has reached her long desired position—that of an old maid. Well, Mary Louise was inclined to be more or less “Loveless” in her younger days. Ah! here comes the future of Ilda Rice. Immediately following her High School course, Ilda retired to the abbey at Whitby. What an isolat- ed life it must be! Well, I suppose her great devotion to the “Abbott” drove her there and “Love ’in this case would do anything. Mamietta Minnoe has become a great vegetarian, living wholly on “Hubbard” squashes. And here’s Ethel Preston! What can she be doing? Ethel always did have a great ambition to do something big in this world. And here she is—manufacturing a new kind of talcum powder from the “Orris” root. Virginia Oppleton is the great novelist of the day. Her last book, “Love—a Career?” is the best seller of the year. Dorothy Kratzer—a celebrated naturalist—spends long hours commun- ing with Nature by the side of the “Brooksbank.” Beatrice Guernsey is equalling Irene Castle in fame all through the in- troduction of her famous “Guernsey Tango.” Laura Loveless now has her name in the “Who’s Who” all because she invented the wonderful perpetual talking machine. Russell Smith is now head of the poultry department at Cornell Uni- versity. It seems to me Russell was interested in chickens but not always in those of the feathered variety. “Kind Fairy,” I asked, “what is my fate?” She smiled, as she held out a rose leaf to me. But alas! I drew a blank. Turning to thank her, I awoke and found everything had been a dream. Still I was rejoiced to think that I had solved the future of my classmates. BERTHA PATCHETT. THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION—1922 Shortly after school opened in the Fall of 1922, the campaign for mem- bership in the Athletic Association was begun. A good membership was secured. A new method of electing officers was proposed. The Seniors and Juniors were to nominate the various officers while all members of the Association were to be present at the election. This plan was carried out. The following officers were chosen. Manager of Football...........................De La Vergne Mills Assistant Manager of Football ....................... Bruce Root Cheerleader ...................................... Marion House Assistant Cheerleader .......................... Francis Carroll Representatives to the Athletic Association Council were chosen from the various classes, two from each of the two upper classes and one from each of the two lower classes. The following representatives were chosen: Seniors......................Beatrice Myers and Curtiss Butler Juniors ..................... James Gifford and Arthur Welden Sophomores ...................................... Arthur Schaff Freshmen ................................... Ralph Carrington Both the Sophomore representative and the Freshmen representative upon their leaving school were replaced by Francis Carroll and Albert Falardeau, respectively. 11

At the first meeting of the council its officers were chosen as follows: Vice-President ...................................... Curtiss Butler Secretary ........................................... Beatrice Myers Treasurer ............................................ Arthur Schaff Arthur Schaff was replaced by Arthur Welden as treasurer upon the former’s leaving school. The Association, as a whole, backed the football team very well. It never lacked funds. By means of a movie” benefit held toward the end of the season and by the proceeds from the Athletic Association Banquet, a very comfortable balance was left in the treasury for the beginning of the 1923 baseball season. THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION—1923 About the middle of February, a new Athletic Association was formed with a membership not quite so good as that of the preceding term. How- ever, they made up in spirit what they lacked in numbers. At a meeting of the whole Association officers for the coming baseball season were chosen as follows: Manager of Baseball.......................Curtiss L. Butler Assistant Manager of Baseball............De La Vergne Mills Cheerleader ................................ Francis Carroll Assistant Cheerleader ........................... Isabel Mills The following representatives were chosen to the Athletic Association Council. Seniors...................Dorothy Smith and Albert Johnson Juniors........................Bruce Root and Arthur Welden Sophomores ............................................ Lester Schaff Preshman ................................. Albert Falardeau As usual, at the first meeting of the Council its officers were chosen. Vice-president .............................. Arthur Welden Secretary .................................... Dorothy Smith Treasurer ................................ Albert Falardeau Although the membership was small I cannot remember a season dur- ing which more spirit has been shown. I think its effect is shown by the percentage of games won and lost by the team as you can see by reading the account of the baseball season given on another page. FOOTBALL—1922 For the first time in many years Baldwinsville High School secured the services of a paid coach for football in the person of Donald Moyer. Everyone must know Don” as he is familiarly called, and his ability as a football player. Because of his starring at Alfred University as an end” and back field man a few years ago and because of his thrilling the specta- tors with terrific line plunges while playing fullback on the All-Bald- winsville eleven, nearly everyone can testify as to his knowledge of foot- ball. Coming to Baldwinsville High School to build a football team he had a leal task before him. He had to build a team from practically green men, men who, though they had played football before, were hardly better tnan beginners. Beginning with rudimentary football, Don” began to whip a team into shape. He spared no effort; patiently teaching the men -° tevkle, block, fall on the ball, get down on the line, etc. • t vfn • instilled some of the fundamental principles of football into the minds of those who were trying to make the team, then came 12
