Ai Grczduafion Like wanderers who seek to find an unknown land, Pushing toward the goal, nor ever turning hack For icy mountain height or burning waste of sand, The class of '26 has studied long to stand At last triumphant. on this graduation night. Wlmen the tall ship rides at anchor in the bay, lmpatient, restless feet are eager to embark, To see the horizon dip, to feel the wind-blown spray, But years have passed since freshman hearts of ours were gay With wonder of a new adventure--a new-born thought. Wlien the vigor of a first resolve has faded, Ir is oft times hard to press on to the ond, To hold the pace when muscles tire and minds are jaded: But as those wanderers follow ways unshaded, just so must students follow the gleam of a distant goal. As bold adventurers have bent exultant gaze Upon the spreading plains, and hills of new-found lands, Perhaps foreseeing populous cities that would raise Their towers there, our class of '26 must hlaze The path of work and praise for those who follow after. Like patriots brave who serve their country and their flag, Who do and suffer for the love of Fatherlancl, Our Senior Class of '26 will never lag ln loyalty, nor our devotion ever drag. We'll ever faithful he to Charleston High. -JAMES BASSETT, '2 6.

It is the re- moval of the final barrier to the outside world: a reward gained through years of patient study: one of the final touches in the moulding of our physical, mental, and moral life. This night will enshrine in our hearts a memory never to be forgotten, no matter what course we may pursue. During our years in high school we have had the opportunity of forming lasting friendships, both with fellow students and with the faculty. Realizing the great value of friendship we are thankful for the opportunity brought about by our school. We can never repay the? faculty for their unselfish and untiring efforts they have expended upon us. They have helped make clear the problems of life and have equipped us with a powerful weapon, Education, for our coming battle with life. The athletic and social life of the school tend to bring the school very near to the heart of the student. They create a personal interest in the school and responsibility in upholding its good name. They bring both physical training and social life to the student, and help to solve many moral and mental problems for him. It can be said that all the students here have distinguished themselves in some man- ner or another, not perhaps as athletes, club managers, but as hard-working students. ln each of the activities our school has a right to be proud of the class of '26. Graduation has always seemed wonderful to us and still does. As the time grows near, the thought of leaving the school where we have spent many pleasant hours in recent years touches a soft spot in our hearts. It seems something like the separation of a large family. Yet the separation will be only physical, for nothing can erase the memory of these years we have spent together. When we have attained our position in life, we shall look back over our high school days and realize its many opportunities. Contact with the business world will strengthen the value of education in our minds. With this start in life we hope that by applied effort we may be able to rise in the world. Perhaps we can not all be winners but we can all play the game squarely. After all, it is not what we get out of the game, but what we put into it. ' -SAM GILLILAND, '26.

And still the river seaward pressed, Surging, struggling, scorning rest. Whence came this stream? a child once cried. The grandsire at his side replied, From a tiny spring on the mountain-side, This mighty river ran. -JOSEFHINE LANE STERN. Seventy , 1 1 '-.4 1, ,,,- . 'Tig i W.. z z' .

We are glad to have our parents and our friends with us, and to them l want to extend our heartiest welcome with the hope that you will enjoy this our class night program. ln the three years of high school training the student does a great deal toward build- ing his life. He has been adding to the essentials of living. The physical training which the student obtains in high school not only serves to keep the body fit for the time being but it also teaches how the body should be cared for in! the following years. Good health is an asset which we learn in school to guard as essential to greater achievement. When the student reaches high school many new interests, such as science, music, and Fine arts are awakened in him. Specializing in these subjects throws a new light upon them. The courses develop the mind. A student who graduates from high school has enlarged his knowledge on some subjects in a way that is highly beneficial. High school offers a pupil an opportunity to develop character. He can learn habits of honesty or dishonesty, industry or idleness, attentiveness or negligence, courtesy or discourtesy, thrift or prodigality. Everyday the pupil has a chance to do something that would not be right. Temptations resisted strengthen-a law that we begin to learn in our school days. One of the greatest assets derived from the class room is learning how to associate with all sorts of people. The class room brings students together. There they learn to know each other, learn to know what they are. Knowledge of one's fellow men is necessary for one to make his way successfully in the world. As we have, day by day, gone about our tasks in the gymnasium, in the class room, in school organizations we have been bugding our life. We have erected a temple. Now is the time for us to leave the high school we have learned to love and to go out into the world to do something else. We have had visions and dreams. We have begun to realize the ambitions which we once anticipated. Some of us who are now graduating will go to college, others will not. Wherever our paths may lead wel are all going out into a new world. Each is going to carry a different kind of burden from the one here at school. We are going to meet life at dif- ferent angles. No mattter what the other is doing, each one will have a chance to do better and bigger things. We shall all have a chance to work for the things we most want in life. While we are working we shall be enlarging our horizon, doing better things. May we in so doing have high ideals.

We came from two Junior High Schools-Lincoln and Roosevelt-where rivalry had always been keen, sometimes bitter. Honors had been shared equally on the various athletic fields as well as in the literary contests. Soon after school had settled down, these two rival classes were fused into the Soph- omore Class of Charleston High School. This was accomplished at a class meeting in the study hall. An election of officers was held with the following results: President-Bill Lively: Vice President-Carl Tully: Secretary-Virginia Quarles: Student Council Rep- resentatives-Leonora Alexander and Fred Fisher. These oflicers were well worthy of the honor conferred upon them and proved to be highly diligent in the discharge of their duties. It is not egotistical to say that throughout the rest of the year Sophomores were prominent in all school activities. When football season arrived, the Sophomore Class was represented by several able athletes who contributed their full share toward a successful season. Basketball, too, brought forth its quota of Sophomore players. Y V After the close of basketball season, the whole class began to look eagerly forward to june and promotion to the rank of Juniors. Examinations came and passed, followed by sighs of relief. School was then over until the following fall term. On the sixth day of September, l925, the Sophomore Class of '25 entered upon its duties as the junior Class of '26. Having been scorned as fresh Sophomores for a full year, we cast the cloak of dignity about our shoulders and prepared to administer the law to the new Sophomores as it had been administered to us. At last we had won the privilege of walking the corridors with a feeling of unconcern and staring with that bored but slightly amused expression at the little Sophomores who had come to H11 our places. The meeting for the selection of officers was of classwide interest. After much feverish voting the results were announced as follows: President, Harry Brawleyg Vice President, john Hopkins: Secretary, Anne lVlcClanahang Student Council Representatives, Dorothy Barrar and Frank Hulbert. The election over, the Junior Class settled down with great zeal to win promotion to the elevated rank of Seniors. This did not require their undivided attention, however, The call for football candidates brought forth a large contribution of juniors. Among these Denver Hill, Lawrence Plaster, Carl Tully, and Bill Lively are especially deserving of mention. They took part in many of the gridiron encounters and successfully upheld the honor of the junior Class. Strange to say, these same football stars with one exception were destined to shine on the basketball floor. This certainly proves the versatility of the Junior Class. Brad Barr, also, was an able cage performer. ' Chorus, orchestra, clubs, dramatics, and debating,-all these activities and others had their share of Junior representatives. Surely no one can say that the junior Class hasn't done its part in making Charleston High the excellent school it is. We don't in- tend to say we are the best junior Class in the history of the school, but we do think it quite pardonable to state that we are as good as any of them. Here's hoping we're all Seniors next year. -JAMES ALTIZER 'Z 7. Diqhtif-Five I if 1 Eighty-Six SOPHOMORE Eighty-Seve'n Y fa 'WAN Q-A ww I V f ' II n b .

Carolyn Theiling was appointed chairman of the program committee, with Evelyn Carslcadon and Ada Belle Forsyth as her assistants. Several new members were added to the club through try-outs, which took the form of walking rehearsals, dramatic readings, and recitations. The play chosen for the club's annual production was Only 33 , a three-act comedy by A. S.

Blaine Cornwell was chairman of the stage committee with Earl Zabel and lra Kuhn assisting him. Gladys Jarvis and Thelma Koehn were the promptors. The play was successfully staged due to the enthusiastic efforts of all concerned with it. The Curtain and Mask Club each year produces a play in a measure more suc- cessful than that produced the preceding year, and this year's production has brought the standard of the club to the highest point of its career.

Thomas' three-act comedy Only 38. The acknowledged success of the per- formance was .due aside from the choice of the play to an excellent cast coached under capable direction. To be thirty-eight years of age, the mother of twins, and a minister's widow, as was Mrs. Stanley, was to be of an age and position above the enjoyment of the cheerfulness of youth, in the estimation of the twins. Thirty-eight to Bob and Lucy meant the retire- ment of their mother into the sordidness of life and restraint from any gaiety. They insisted that the new home in which the little family moved so the twins icould go to college be furnished in the same gloomy atmosphere as had been the parsonage, from which they had been forced to move. lr was to desecrate father's memory to give away his dusty old books, or to remove his cheerless pictures and busts, or to attempt making the house at all cheerful, believed the twins. Mrs. Stanley, willing to make any sacrifice for her children even to dyeing her hair white, resigned herself to becoming as old as her children think her, she being as old to them as they are young to their mother. ln giving up the brief cheerfulness which she had begun, Mrs. Stanley had also to give up her interest in Professor Giddings, with whom Lucy was quite taken. Bob and Lucy tried to make themselves believe that they were doing right by mother, and that the change again back to the gloom of former years pleased them, but it took only a little persuasion from the professor to convince Lucy, and accordingly Bob. that mother was not old as they believed her, and that she was entitled to the happiness of one who was Only 38. - The happiness of all is complete at the final outcome, when the professor received the promise of Mrs. Stanley's hand, and the twins looked with favor upon their step- father to be whom they had already decided to call Sin i Virginia Dillon as Mrs. Stanley, who was Only 38 despite the fact that the twins would have her older, played the part of the changed mother so well that the audience, as well as Professor Giddings, fell in love with her. Peggy Barnes and Frank Lowe were superbly matched as the priggish twins who undergo a cheerful change as the play progresses. Philip Simms, as the dignified Professor Giddings, was extremely good: with all of his wisdom and knowledge he was still very human. Mortimer Buck, as the embarrassed young lover of Lucy, was just the actor for the part. He finally mustered enough courage to win the fair lady of his heart. Martha Bromberg as a demure college girl, in the part of Mary Hadley, was so pretty and appealing that Bob' Stanley readily fell victim to her charms. Mr. Sanborn, as played by Leon Galperin, was one of the high spots of the evening, for this small town character on his first trip to the city was played with such under- standing that the audience was in sympathy with him from the very first. Joe Anna Pike as Mrs. Newcomb was a revelation. She sneezed so naturally that a general twitching of noses was evident in the audience. As the ring leader in town gossip she was perfection itself. Hyldred Schachet as Mrs. Peters, the echo of Mrs. Newcomb, was also very good. These two made the first part of the play uproariously funny. Jenny Chisholm as Alice, and James Basset as Charlie, two young college students, enthusiastic after a victorious football game, gave pep and enthusiasm to the play.

Charleston High School Stenographic Association was organized five years ago and includes in its membership not only the students now taking work in the Steno- graphic Department of the Charleston High School, but alumni members of the de- partment as well. The Charleston Stenographic Department prepares students for actual stenographic and secretarial work upon graduation. Since this is true, the Stenographic Association was organized with a view to acquainting the business men of Charleston with this fact. The chief event of the year with this club is the annual banquet. Every effort is put forth by students and alumni to make this a success. In I925 Hon. Woodbridge N. Ferris, U. S. Senator from Michigan, was engaged as principal speaker. This year Mr. Harry Collins Spillman, Educational Director for the Remington Typewriter Company, was speaker. Over two hundred and fifty people-students, alumni and business men- this year attended the banquet which was held February 26 at the Ruffner Hotel.

Follow- ing the dinner interesting and inspiring speakers are enjoyed, their topics covering problems vitaI to high school boys. In addition to the regular weekly meetings, the club undertakes one Iarge task a month. At the opening of the season it was fortunate in bringing to the city IVIr. N. C. Schlichter as a speaker for the Rotary Club and for all the high schools in the city. In November it showed its appreciation to the High School Football team by honoring them with a banquet. It was also largely responsible for the success of the State OIder Boys' Conference, at which there were over three hundred high school boys from all over the state. It was the cIub's task to furnish homes for the visitors for the three days. The December task consisted of entertaining at a banquet during the Christmas hoI- idays all the old time I-Ii-Y members- and the members who had been away at coIIege. In January it decorated the dining room of the Kanawha I-IoteI in order that the Rotary Club might better enjoy their New Year's Day Banquet. March 4 and 5 the club staged its fifth annuaI IVIinstreI Show at the high school audi- torium. The show was the hit of the season and the auditorium was packed both nights. The Mother and Son Banquet in April under the auspices of the cIub did much to make the fellows appreciate their mothers more. I The Club season was rounded out in May with a Find Yourself Campaign, which proved very beneficial in helping the cIub members find themselves vocationally.

Plans were immediately made for the Christmas dance which was given December 30 for the students who were home for the holiclays. This was followed by a Valentine Dance at the South Side Women's Club. March 26 a Spring Dance was given in honor of the boys' basketball team of Charleston High School. Negro dancers from the Ferguson Hotel gave an exhibition of the ucharlestonh at this dance, which was held in the Shawnee Club ballroom. An open house was held April I6 at the South Side Women's Club. The biggest and best attended dance of the year was given june 4 at the Shawnee Club rooms, in honor of the June graduating class. All of the dances of this club have been well-conducted and well-chaperoned, and it has undoubtedly presented the students of this school with the cleanest of dances ancl has thereby furthered wholesome enjoyment among young people.

Starting out with a goodly number of players, the band played at almost all of the football games and also played for the opening game of the Twilight league and others. After the football season was over, a number of the members dropped out and the band was reorganized. This left the band with a good nucleus to continue work for the remainder of the year. On the 17th of December the band shared in a Concert given by the combined musical organizations of the school. Some new instruments were bought for the band which meant of course an addition of several new players. To some of the members, this organization has proved very interesting because they had never before played in- struments or appreciated the ensemble. PERSONNEL DIRECTOR-Mr. Francis.

J. GORIVIAN, Head Coach UR. -I. needs no introduction. He is known far and wide by the calibre of the teams he produces. When any team he has coached does go down in defeat there is no unfair playing and there is no alibi. Next year R, J. will have several more as- sistants. V ROBERT C-ARRED fCaptainJ Tackle Bob ended his high school football career by playing brilliantly throughout the season. On the de- fense he was a sure tackler, and being fast, he could be used at end. Bob always conducted himself in a manner that would befit a captain. LAWRENCE PLASTER, Tackle Lawrence hit his stride about the middle of the season, and from there on couldn't be stopped. The dumbest quarter in the state would know more than to run plays through him. Time and again he stopped a runner before he could get started. Plaster was elected captain for next year, and without a doubt he will make one of the best we have ever had. R sqm ' H., 1. I , L ' F ' '12 N 1 ,Qi , . . v 'J Q ii' I MARION HALL, Quarter This past year Cap showed the public some headwork that has not been seen on Laidley field since Skeet Farley graduated. He was an excellent passer and a good man to receive punts. Cap re- ceived honorable mention for the All State Team. CARL TULLY, Half Snacks was about the fastest man on the team. He will long be remembered for his hair raising dashes around the ends, and he was very seldom thrown for a loss. Snooks was also a bear on the defense. WILLIAM LIVELY, Quarter Bill was a utility man for the backfield. He played most of the time at halfbaclc, but as he had a good football head, he could also be used at quar- terback. Bill has another year of football and great things are expected of him. CHARLES HAMILTON. End Charlie alternated at end with Rudolph Atkin- son. It was difficult to choose between the two men, as both played the position well. Charlie had the advantage of experience. He will be lost to the squad through graduation next year. PAT ROCHELLE., Guard Pat started the season as a baclcfield man. He developed into such a good defensive man that he was shifted to the line where he played as a regular. Pat was equally good on the offense and defense. He will be one of the mainstays next year. One Hundred Footy Two I QQ' ' 4' ' 1 l ALLAN WHITAKER. End Whitaker received his first letter this year although he has been on the squad for some time. He has been very faithful in attending practices and was a scrappy little man to eject into a game. His fine spirit put new life into the team. Whitaker will be greatly missed next year. RUDOLPH ATKINSON, End Atkinson started out as a second string end. He showed up so well in the first few games that he was given a regular berth. Rudolph is a hard lighter and a valuable man to have on the team. He is another one of our bright prospects for next year. JACK RUFFNER, Fullback Jack came to C. H. S. from Greenbrier Military Academy. He had gained quite a reputation as a fullback and it took only a few days to see that he had not been overrated. He added great strength to the defensive work of the team by backing up the line. His chief gains were straight through the line, and he never failed to gain. HARRY LIEBLE, End Harry earned his second letter last year. He has been a dependable man ever Since he has been in High School, missing something like two practices in four years. Harry could play almost any post that was vacant, and High School will surely miss him next year. SAM GILLILAND, Tackle Sam could play almost any place on the line, but his favorite position was end. He was a sure bet on receiving passes of both teams. He was a hard fighter and often nailed an opposing back for a loss. One Hzmclred Forty-Tlwee Alb PGN g s Perl --1 ' : E. --.wg Y 1 V, 771714: Trti W: 4 0 1 l 4 Z .QW-X CHARLES SCHRADER, Center Schrader played his first game this year as a reg- ular. His snaps were unerring and he Hnished the good work by tearing holes in the line for the backs to go through. Charlie was fast in getting down under punts, and quite frequently he brqlce through to block an opposing punt' or pass. With one more year Schrader would have developed into a real star. . MARK GILLISPIE., Guard Gillispie was one of our new linesmen. It did not take him long to earn a regular position on the team, for he could always be depended on to give his best. Hia work in the Elkins game was especially noteworthy. Mark has two more years of football and he bids fair to develop into a real star. n PAUL HEYDRICK. Half - Haddad was at all times a great help to the team. He could always be depended on for a gain, and he never gave up. He was a triple threat, that is he could pass, punt, and run with like ability. He was placed at halfbaclc on Stansbury's first All State Team. BERNARD MEEKER, Half Meeker, playing his last year of high school foot- ball, received his first letter. .He played at halfback and was a good man to run interference. He was fast and a sure tackler. Meeker was valuable as a substitute even though the occasion for him to enter a game did not often arrive. H ARTHUR STRAUGHN, alma Straughn was used at guard and tackle and played both positions well. He was a dependable man to send in when one of his teammates weakened. Art has been a valuable man to C. H. S. football, and his absence will be keenly felt next year. One Hundred Fm ty Fam H- -4, .. ' ew' ' . .' --'cf . . 'QF' 'SEQ' . -'QQ Review of 1925 Football Season HEN school opened in the fall of l925, Coach Gorman was confronted with the problem of filling four positions left vacant by the june graduation. Captain Ciar- recl, Hall, Heydrick, Tully, Gilliland, Hamilton and Plaster were on hand from last year, and with them as a nucleus a team was built up that lost only two games. Captain Garred, playing the best game of his career, was one of the mainstays of the line. Charleston started the season with a rush. It met and defeated some of the strongest teams in the state-real contenders for the State Championship. Among them were such teams as Elkins, Fairmont, Parkersburg and Logan. Elkins was decisively defeated early in the season: then came Fairmont, Parkersburg, and Logan respectively. It was only in the last few minutes of the game that Charleston was able to defeat Fairmont. The Fairmont boys led most of the way, but the great passing combine, Hall to Heyclriclc, could not be stopped. The winning touchdown was netted in this way. It was thought by all that Charleston was marching to a state championship and seemed as though only a stroke of fate could put them out of the running. This stroke of fate became a reality in that never-to-be-forgotten game with Huntington on November 2I. The C. H. S. boys were way off form, and played as though they were under a mental strain. They showed only Hashes of the football that they were capable of playing. Hunt- ington cinched the game by long passes, which the local boys seemed unable to break up. Had Charleston played the brand of ball that was displayed against Logan, Elkins, and some of the other teams, they would now be the proud possessors of the state title. Charleston ended the season by receiving its second defeat of the season, on Thanks- giving Day. Greenbrier Military School furnished the opposition. Charleston gave them a stiff fight, but were unable to successfully cope with the greater size of the Cadets. From every standpoint the I925 football season was very successful. A team like ours of this year is one that will continue a powerful incentive to future Charleston High School football squads. The High School supporters are willing to forget their defeats and pin their pride to the red and blue for the way each one of her men worked during the games of the season, the scores of which are given below: CHARLESTON ...... ...... 2 8 CHARLESTON ...... ...... l 6 at Charleston at Charleston OAK HILL .............

Gs:-ke3?:' v Girls, Basfgef-Ball HE Charleston High School girls' basket-ball team of the I926 season played eleven games, resulting in only three defeats and one tie, Only two regular players were on hand to begin the season. When the call came for practice, about thirty girls appeared. From this number Miss Cary chose one of the best basketball teams the school has known. ' In the first game of the season the students for once showed their' superiority over the faculty by defeating them to the score of 65-IS. The faculty players said they had not played for years and years but they got around the fioor quite well. Those playing on the faculty team were Miss Fairbanks, Miss Shoen, Miss -Iessie Page Clark, Miss Campbell, Miss Reber, Miss Patton, Miss Icie Hope Clark and Miss Cary. . . The only tie of the season came when Charleston journeyed to Man and the score . was 28-26. Both teams played a fast game. Man held the lead by several points until the last ninety seconds of play when several baskets were made in rapid succession, Helen Krebs tossing the tying score. The fans got plenty of thrills out of the first Huntington game which was played in the armory gymnasium. The game was fast with much spectacular playing. The Charleston Iassies won to the score of 26-I I. The second game with Huntington on February 9 proved that they could play better on the home floor. ln this game Charles- ton Iost to the score of I2-32. x I SCORES: CHARLESTON FACULTY ,..,...

For the past two years she has captained the quintet, and this year she played a stellar game as high pointer, making l7B points during the season. Helen's floor work and shooting were remarkable. She will be with the team next year and much is ex- pected of her. GLADY CHAPMAN, Forward Gladys was manager of the team this year and played center and forward. She seldom failed to get the tip-off and her basket shooting could always be depended upon. EUGENIA SMITH, Forward Jinx could always be depended upon to do her best. Her passworlc and team play were excellent. Jinx played her last high school basket-ball game this year, She will be greatly missed next season. ANNE LEWIS, Guard ' Anne came to Charleston High School this mid-year from Lincoln Junior. She came out for practice at the beginning of the season and made the team. Anne has proved to us that she is a guard worth while. She is one of our most loyal and en- thusiastic players. OLGA LAYNE., Guard Olga also came from Lincoln junior this year. She teamed with the other guards beautifully. The amount of energy she displayed when the occasion demanded was astonishing, and she was a great help to the team. Olga will be very valuable to the team next year. I MILDRED CROWELL, Guard Mid played a star game as guard. She has never told us where she got the gift of hanging on to the ball, but she must have inherited it. Mid also graduates this year and although the team will greatly miss her, she will be very valuable to some college team. MARGARET BARTLEY, Substitute Margaret could always be depended upon to do her best when put in a game to take another girl's place. She was a star player on the Roosevelt Junior team. She will make a grand fight next year for a regular position on the team. EDNA ARTHUR, Sub.-Guard i Dana went with the team on almost every trip during the season. Although she did not play in many games, she fought hard when she did play. She will be out for basketball next year and will be a valuable player on the team. ' MARY ELIZABETH ROLL, Substitute - Mary Lib made the team only after the season was nearly over. The Dunbar game was the first in which she, played and she proved herself a very efficient player. Mary Lib was out for swimming and was a very enthusiastic member of the Hobo Club. She will be valuable to the team next year. Om Hmzdred Forty-Nine oys Baskeiball MARION HALL, Guard i Cap will be remembered as the smallest player, yet one of the best on the team. What he lacked in size he made up for in pure determination. His guard- ing was always good and he possessed a dead eye for the basket. Cap very capably filled the cap- taincy left vacant by Sam Gilliland. He was placed on the all-tournament team at Montgomery. SAM HORTON, Forward Sam was another all-round player. His favorite po- sition was forward, but he could be used at center. Little need be said of his guarding as those who wit- nessed the sectional tournament at Montgomery will easily recall his stellar performance at that position. Horton has been elected captain of the team for next year. WILLIAM MITCHELL, Forward Bill was about the best shot on the squad, and was a valuable sub as he could always be counted on to do his best when injected into the game. Although Mitchell is a forward, we all remember the fine brand of ball he put up against Greenbrier at running guard. Bill's loss through graduation will be keenly felt by next year's squad. LAWRENCE PLASTER, Center Plaster, with Hill, Mitchell and Brawley, composed the group of red heads on the C. H. S. squad. Plasteris only weakness was his inability to score, but he im- proved greatly in this department as the season pro- gressed. He is a good defensive player: consequently he can be used at guard. Plaster should be a val- uable man for Coach Gorman next year. One Hundred Fifty ' i .s . is-Ar... . MARK GILLISPIE, Center Mark was another player of junior High School fame who made good on the C. H. S. squad. Marl: nearly always managed to get the tip-off from the opposing center which was a great help to the team. Gillispie may best be remembered by his dog-shots. His height enabled him to get the ball above the head of the average player, and a great part of his scoring was accomplished in this way. ANDREW BRAWLEY, Forward Andy came to us late in the season from Roose- velt junior High. His excellent work on that team had attracted attention and he soon proved his worth on the C. H. S. squad. Andy has plenty of ability, and with a little more coaching he will undoubtedly develop into a real star. DENVER HILL. Guard Red was one of the best stationary guards in the state. He had plenty of nerve and fight and his scor- ing ability often helped in a close game. Red was of great value to the team as he could play any po- sition. The past season he was used at guard, center, and forward. Hill has another year of basket-ball. A WILLIAM STUART, Forward Bill equalled Mitchell in shooting ability. On ac- count of this and his all-round good playing he was given a regular berth on the team. He was the star of many of the games in the New River State Tourna- ment. Bill played well at Montgomery and also in the State Tournament at Buclchannon. Coach Gorman will not Find it easy to fill his place. BRADFORD BARR, Forward Brad got his first chance as a regular in the game against Huntington. He did so well that his position was practically assured from then on. Barr was such a hard player that he often went out of the game via the personal foul route. His scoring ability was a great asset to the team. One Hzmdred Fifty-One 5, lg.. fif',Q 'E5 , N-.

Review of Bczslfgei-Ball y HARLESTON'S basket-ball season was satisfactory, despite its ups and downs. Thirty candidates began the season, but barely ten men remained from whom to select the team. The season started with two quick victories for C. H. S., the opposition being Elk View and Clendenin. Charleston then went way off form and received a lick- ing at the hands of Montgomery. This was followed by the second victory over Clendenin and a win over the strong Logan five. Charleston then received three disappointing de- feats at the hands of Point Pleasant and Parkersburg, the former turning the trick twice. Charleston, smarting from its recent defeats, went on a rampage against Huntington and Bluefield, the scores being 28-I6 and 28-I3 respectively, both in favor of Charles- ton. Then it seemed that confidence had overtaken the boys for they were defeated in succession by Huntington 128-141 and Greenbrier C26-255. Taking life from defeat, they went to Montgomery the week after the Greenbrier affair and walked away with first honors at the Sectional Tournament, defeating Winding Gulf 30-8, Beckley 25-I7, Mount Hope 23-I6, and East Bank 32-13. These victories placed Charleston on the list of teams that were eligible to compete for state honors at Buckhannon. The State Tournament at Buckhannon this year proved to be the most successful ever held in West Virginia. The two-class system was abolished, and thirty-two teams were entered on an equal footing with equal chances of winning the state title. Charleston met and defeated Weston in the first round. The game was fast and exciting all the way through, both teams displaying a good brand of hall. It ended 20 to I7 in favor of Charleston. ' In the second round Charleston met Mount Hope. Mount Hope was defeated by C. H. S. in the Montgomery tourney, but its opposition proved to be anything but a snap, Charleston finally winning 8 to 6. ' Charleston once more hit its stride and defeated Bluefield 34 to 24 in a fast game. Bluefield gained an early lead, only to be overtaken and beaten by Charleston. Charleston met defeat at the hands of Elkins who, by the way, won the State Championship in a hard game with Point Pleasant. The tournament had dwindled to fourteen. Charleston and Wheeling were eliminated by the respective scores of 35 to ll and 24! to I6. Elkins and Point Pleasant staged a battle for state honors in the final' game, Elkins winning I6 to I I.

The Siafe Meet' Charleston, entered as a dark horse, with five. stars QHeydrick, Laughorn, Anderson, Tully and KaufmanD clisqualihed, won the state meet by a greater margin than ever before. The men who made the trip to Morgantown were MacAndrews, Fontaine, Braw- ley, Wright, Gillispie, Foreman and Plaster. Fontaine was high point man at the meet, with I2 points. This is an especially fine achievement, as this is his first year on the team. No state records were broken, but MacAndrews tied the record in the 220-yard dash at 23.2.
