E. Bennett for their unending and tireless efforts to make the C. H. S. a better place for education. By 'teducationu We do not mean algebra., geometry and such brain-racking subjects, but they have striven to raise the standard for all school activities, not that those activities were low, but they are at present as high as ever before. Miss Babcock as class advisor for the Class of '21 guided them through a most successful term. She Will- ingly gave her time to help them in all their activities and her advice was dependable. She coached the Senior Stunt and the Carnival Show and made the Senior class a success in general. Not only as their dramatic coach was she active, but she added greatly to the social func- tions of the school. She Will long be remembered by the Class of '21, Mr. Bennett, our beloved Principal, is the person responsible for the successful year enjoyed by the C. H. S. His open, frank, honest Way has Won him a place in the heart of every student. He meets all problems fairly and squarely, and so adjusts any difficulty as to leave the student no misunderstanding. Mr. Bennett has been very enthusiastic about anything to better the C. H. S., and has done all in his power to stimulate those things. We hope this Annual, to some extent, does him justice. ANI?

In that four years we have enjoyed many social functions, our athletes have been almost undefeated, and we have gained the most practical education of our school life. During the War all school activities were suspended and did not open again until 1919-1920, when we Won many honors and have continued to do so. There has been no Crimson and Gray Annual for the past three years. In that time fate may bring about many changes,-some good, and some better. NVith this fact in mind the Class of '21 wishes to give the students a record of these changes and to keep the memory freshened of their beloved friends and High School days. If after you have read this ,21 edition of The Crimson and Gray you feel that you are closer associated with the old school and that you have a better understanding and love for your old classmates, this book shall have accomplished its purpose. THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL 13 History of the High School The Chehalis High School is three decades old. Since its establishment thirty- two years ago, it has advanced rapidly until it is now considered one of the largest schools in Southwest Washington. Chehalis had its first school in 1885, which was opened in a little old building on Main Street. The work was limited to the first eight grades. There were but fifty pupils and two teachers, Miss Etta Ackerman, who had the first and second primary grades, and Mr. J. T. Forrest, who was superintendent, had the upper grades. In the spring of 1885, the district voted on a new building, but voted it down by a decisive majority. ln 1886 Mr. Forrest bought The Chehalis Bee and started a campaign for a new school building. After two years the new building was built in the field, known as the School block, on Market Street, directly opposite the City Hall and Library. This school held both the grades and a three-year high school, which was accredited by the University of Washingtoii. The first class graduated in 1891. They were Maude Newland, Amasa S. Loomis and Fred A. Newland. The class graduating in 1893 were Emma Welton-Miller, Melva N. Forrest, Au- gusta Lucas-Bond, and Lillie Parker. During the hard times there was a short session of six months' school. Classes were held in 1891,1893,1895,1897,1898 and 1899. Superintendent Forrest resigned in 1899, and was succeeded by J. S. McPhaill, who served one year only. In 1900 the first High School Annual was published, which merely consisted of the pictures of several of the graduated classes. Succeeding Mr. McPhaill was L. H. Leach, who resigned in 1903. The next super- intendent was Mr. F. S. Thompson, who served until 1907. Mr. F. H. Huntworth was elected next. In 1909 the High School building was moved out on Market Street, between Second and Third Streets, and was made into a grade school, now known as the Cascade school. At this time the present High School building was erected. There were many improvements made in this building. The laboratory equipment was enlarged, and a Manual Training and Domestic Science department installed. In 1910 Mr. E. T. Duffield was elected superintendent, and during his term he raised the school to a high standard of efficiency. Mr. R. E. Cook, who succeeded Mr. Duffield in 1914, and who is our present su- perintendent, has maintained an equally high standard. The High School has made rapid progress during its thirty-two years of existence. There were approximately ten pupils in 1889, and there are now three hundred, show- ing the advancement which has been made. ln view of these facts, Chehalis may Well be proud of its High School. -L.

COOK Mr. Cook has been superintendent of the Che- halis Schools for the past seven years, and in that time he has raised the standard of the school, and increased its efficiency. While he has been in Chehalis, he has won scores of true and loyal friends among the students. His pleasing personality, cheerful smile, and his words of encouragement have made the students feel that he is their friend. He takes a personal interest in everyone, and in the activities of the school. The students feel they are fortunate in having hirn as their superintendent and advisor. We Wish him continued success in his Work here. 16 Tl-IIC CRIMSON ANI? GRAY .4NNUAL ll. E. 1Il+1NNETT To most students of the High School, this was Mr. Bennetts first year in Chehalis, but to students of long ago, he will be remembered as Principal of the West Side School. He returned to Chehalis this year as Principal of the High School. Mr. Bennett is a man oi' unusually fine character and ability. His genial manner and ever-ready sympathy have won for him the admiration and highest regard of the entire student body and the faculty. It is hard at our age, to realize what a man like Mr. Bennett means to us. Some may think the in- formation and advice given by him are not suited to us, and perhaps we may feel that he is somewhat firm at times. We forget that he has only our in- terest at heart, and any restraint that he may put upon us, is for our good. His gentle yet wise guidance of our lives will help us to become men and women of which our school may be proud. We sincerely hope Mr. Bennett will pilot the Crimson and Gray ship another year. TIIIC UHIMSUN AND GRAY ANNUAL li RIMS. li. li. KTUHK Mrs. R. E. Cook, our history and language teacher, was with us until the Christmas Vacation, and during that time she met with a terrible avri- dent. While visiting with her mother and father in Tacoma, an automobile in which she was riding was struck hy u street car. Mrs. Cook wus thrown vio- lently to the pavement and received injuries that Were everything huiyfatal. She was taken to the Tacoma General Hospital, where it was found that her leg and hip was hroken, her arm hroken, and her rhest 1-rushed. Under these trying: circum- stances Mrs. Cook displayed u spirit of true fight when she fought her way hack to health. The C. ll. S. was very sorry that she 1-ould not he with us the full term, and we extend our sym- pathy and admiration to her. Mrs. Cook will prohahly he with us next year. 18 THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL Miss Helen Hansen Miss Zella Melchel' Miss Emily Babcock Mrs. S. A. Bacher Ira T.

For a year she had nursed the old fanatic who now lay dead, unmourned, without a friend. There was no heir to his accumulated millions and not even one friend to seek the outcome of his will. Alice stood quietly for a few minutes holding in her hand a white card and en- velope. She glanced at the card again and re-read these words, We are now ready for your Golden Store. This card was a Commencement Announcement from a friend of Alice's in the High School of Chehalis, Washington, which she had received ten years before. It all came about when, one day Alice wrote to this friend and told her that she would soon fall heir to a few millions and that if she so desired she would share a part of it with her, and in fact she would divide up with her classmates of the class of 1921. This had then seemed indeed an absurd statement, but one day Alice, to amuse the sick man told him of her promise, and he a lover of the unusual had liked the plan and had left his millions to the graduates of the class of '21 and had appointed Alice as exec- utrix. A few days later found Alice Morelle in traveling suit and hat, about ready to start out in search of the heirs, graduates of the class of 1921, Chehalis High School, Chehalis, WVashington. She was met at the train by Irene Mock, who had sent the Commencement An- nouncement, and also had knowledge of the whereabouts of her classmates. Alice was surprised beyond words to find Irene, an instructor of Spanish in the High School of Chehalis. V The three days in this city found Alice seeking the few graduates still here. Directed by Irene, Alice started in search of Norman Burnett, who had a few years before taken over his father's jewelry store, and his wife was now selling tickets at the Liberty Theater. After being introduced to Norman and amused at his excite- ment over the money, she left him and walked up a long street, where at the corner of it was a large brick building, and the sign on it read: 'fMiss Price's School for Girls. Alice mounted the stairs and was met in the office by Ida, a woman now of a quiet, gentle and pleasing manner who did not show any emotion whatsoever when Alice explained her mission here. As Ida escorted her to the door and she started down the stairs, an amused smile came over Aliceis face and she thought what a trip of experi- ence this journey was going to be. On reaching the foot of the stairs she noticed coming towards her a tall, dark complexioned man, carrying a tiny bouquet of pink daisies tied with green and white ribbon. This must indeed be Harold Frederick, whose marked attention toward the prim director of the Young Ladies' Seminary had set many tongues to wagging. He was a striking figure in his band uniform and Alice knew from what she had heard of tl1e director of the city band that here was another of the people whom she sought. His joy at receiving the money indicated that without a doubt wedding bells would now soon be ringing. On finding that she had only two more people left to see, Alice decided to visit the one living at Claquato, a few miles outside of the city. Paul Wenzelburger, a very well-to-do young farmer of this country, and his wife, impressed Alice as an extremely happy couple and after her visit was over she accepted their invitation to take her back to Chehalis in their Dodge Sedan. THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL 37 Alice's last trip was to a well-equipped law office, where she received with pleas- ure the cordial greeting of Emery Hermans, a most successful young lawyer of the city. After the transaction of the business, Alice regretted having to refuse Mr. Her- mans' invitation to dine with him and his wife that evening, but her journey was yet young and it was necessary that she leave that city for Tacoma that day. Completing the shopping that she had to do in the city, Alice betook herself to the suburbs of Tacoma, where she was greeted at the door of a cozy, little, green and brown bungalow by Mrs. Francis Forker, formerly Hazel Miesen. A dinner invitation was accepted here, and leaving her ever-welcome message, Alice left Mr. and Mrs. Forker with an ideal picture of happiness. Combining a business and pleasure trip, that evening Alice enjoyed at the Hippo- drome, the play, A Kentucky Idol, produced by the Allen Stock Company, with Har- vey Johnson as leading man. When the performance was over, and Harvey held securely his check in hand he waved a fond adieu to the life of footlights and empty pockets. Quite early the next morning, Alice walked out to the College of Puget Sound in search of Miss Irene Getsman, the music instructor of the school, and now staging the operetta, 'tThe Gypsy Rover. Alice must have forgotten that she was to find another person whom she was looking for because when Mr. Ernest Ross, the president of the college, greeted her, it was indeed a great surprise. Both Mr. Ross and Miss Getsman thanked Alice many times over for her visit to them. The next city where Alice visited was Seattle. Directing her steps to the Arena, where Miss Bibian Bertrand had been instructor of skating for three years, she watched for a few minutes the ease and grace with which Miss Bertrand glided by. With some difficulty Alice succeeded in gaining the attention of this young lady, and for some minutes after she reached the outside, she found herself recalling the fluent vocabulary Miss Bertrand had used in her thanks for the money. Next in line came Frederick and Nelson's, where Gladys Murphy conducted the tea-room in splendid fashion. She received the small fortune gladly, declaring her intention of setting up an artistic tea-room of her own. On reaching Bellingham the following day, Alice learned the direction which took her to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Spath, where Mrs. Spath, formerly Marguerite Heinz, ushered her into a tiny but most comfortable home. Although her stay was not long here, she was well satisfied at the pleasure with which these people welcomed their share of the estate. Across the Canadian border, Alice visited the first home where wealth was in evidence. Here Marjorie Merrell Jamieson, a charming hostess, entertained her de- lightfully, and in her expensive limousine, drove her to the Orphanage, where the increased wealth would be bestowed. After a somewhat long and tedious journey to Alaska, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Twiss was a most welcome sight to Alice. Bob, as head of a leading exporting agency of the country, had been very successful, but did not, however, refuse the offer due to him and his wife, Marian. The sunshine of California was a great delight after the Alaskan snows, and in the large city of Los Angeles, Alice sought the solitude of a Catholic Convent, where she asked to see Father Saindonf' The attitude in which he received the money gave Alice the impression that it had come too late, and perhaps he had been dis- appointed in some t?J love affair of past years. This somewhat different journey over to Hollywood, Alice found Evangeline Sowers, who had become a second Louise Fazenda, and was so swamped in dollars, that she scarcely had time for a hurried but polite Thank you. From Hollywood to San Francisco, Alice once again wound her way into the halls of a girls' seminary, and asked to see Mr. Charles Zachman, who was an instructor of geometry. Words could not express Charlie's happiness at his long-looked-for good luck. 38 THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL Schools and colleges were becoming very familiar to Alice, and at O. A. C. she found Leo Jones, athletic coach. A supply of money was after Leo's own heart, for he had already found a bungalow and there was a certain college girl who had pos- sessed his heart for some time. In Eugene, Oregon, a most attractive confectionery shop caught the eye of Alice, and she was surprised to find it the very one she was looking for. Here lVIr. and Mrs. NValcher were very happy in their work, and Effie, to show her appreciation for the money, gave Alice a huge box of home-made fudge which had won them such a repu- tation with the University students of that city. The city of Portland now found Alice on a Sunday morning entering a Presby- terian Sunday School and was taken to the class where Miss Letha Green was the ad- mired teacher of a number of little ones, Letha had long ago refused all of her High School lsuitors and was living a quiet life. Alice learned that Fenton Green was pres- ident of the Y. M. C. A. of that city. Both of them said the money was as welcome as the flowers in May. Before leaving Portland, Alice visited the up-to-date office of Ernest Vanderplou, a thriving dentist, whose work would be aided exceedingly by the fortune which had fallen to his lot. The short trip from Oregon to Montana was not a tiresome one, but Alice was glad to arrive in the town of Joliet. Jake Huber lived here on a large cattle ranch and was apparently quite successful, but l1e could be a great deal more so now with his money. Alice next went to Wisconsin, and in a large sanitarium found Helene Charneski, one of the charming nurses, who brought cheer to the patients. Her husband, a young physician, promised that the money should be well used in his work for others. Walking up Third Avenue in Chicago, Alice passed a small but exclusive millinery shop, and entering saw Miss Alfreda Beck in controversy with one of the city's society leaders. It seemed that her shop was that most favored by Chicago's women of fashion. But Alfreda was tired of work and said that she could at last live at the fashionable hotel where she had so long desired to go. VVithin a week's stay in New York, Alice found two of the heirs of the fortune. At the Winter Garden, the dazzling Egyptian spectacle, called Desert Sands, was being staged, with Clara Shirley as alluring princess Ardah. At the Metropolitan Opera House, James Harms delighted huge audiences nightly with the baritone voice, which had pleased the High School assemblies years before. A1ice's next Visit in New York was at a quaint inn, in the center of Greenwich Village, and here she found Hallie Knapp and his wife, Helen. That very night a ball was being staged, for Hallie had sold his new picture, 'tRomance, for a good sum. The additional money which he was now to receive would undoubtedly go like the rest ln a wonderful residence on Fifth Avenue, Alice was introduced into the home of Mrs. Bertha Ely Nordstrum. She was a very busy society woman, to be sure, with her clubs and teas, but it was in a most pleasing manner in which she received the money and said she would contribute the entire sum to a home for working girls. Alice looked forward to her trip to VVashington, D. C., where William Alexander held a most prominent position in Congress as speaker of the House of Representatives. After the long morning session was over Alice at last could explain her mission to VVilliam, and from all appearances he was very grateful for the money. Oscar Johnson was at this time busily engaged in the account of HA journey to Egypt in a row-boat and back over the mountains in a tub. Alice found him in South Carolina, but after giving him the money, she left at once, being unwilling to delay for one moment the publication of this novel work. THE CRIINISON AND GRAY ANNUAL 39 A most thrilling incident was seen by Alice at Palm Beach, where Annette Keller- mann, now becoming somewhat stiff with age, was introducing her protege, Miss Sara Overmeyer. Upon Alice's arrival, Miss Overmeyer had rescued a very wealthy old lady from the briny deep and was fast acquiring fame and fortune throughout the land. On board a ship for Europe, Alice had the good fortune to meet Eva Severs, who was setting out for France to do reconstruction work in that great and needy country. She left her in Europe with regret, and she thought wonderingly of how this great inheritance was spreading over the world, even to helping ruined Europe. Still more was to go to this cause, for in Belgium, Ruth DeLeau, now the wife of a prosperous farmer, was striving, as she could, to help the people of her little country. From Europe Alice traveled on to China, and there found Elmer Wirta, a man of great prestige among the slant-eyed people. He, it seemed, had fallen to the lure of the Geisha Girls' glances and was at that time introducing the fashion of peroxide blonds to the beautiful Chinese maidens. Off for Africa, the land of the dark interior! Here in an English settlement, Stuart Twiss was living a life of study and labor, learning daily new habits of a certain species of lady-bugs in that country. He had married the daughter of an English colonel. Stuart and his wife planned to use his inheritance for a pleasure trip in which he hoped to visit his old home city. At last the adventure which Alice had looked forward to for so long, was ended. On board the ship, thinking over the past events, she sighed a little, wishing there were more heirs to search for, but what a thrill came over her as she caught sight of the smokestacks and that wonderful Statue of Liberty. Suddenly she realized that she had returned to America and that she also had a part of the fortune which she had not finished distributing. It had made her think, this little peep into the lives of the folks who had been firmly linked together in the High School days, that these people were now striving, each and every one, to be worthy of the class which they loved. Yes, it made her wish that she, too, had been of the class of i2l. -Frances Power, '2l. Senior Class History- Class of '21 On the fourth day of September. 1917, over half a hundred Freshmen marched gaily up the large steps to the assembly. With the usual confusion we sat down, and after a few moments became quiet enough to be instructed in the ways of the High School and its courses of study. W'e were timid and bashful, of course, but neverthe- less, we were proud of ourselves, and felt quite honored that we were requested to take our hats upstairs. We were watched with piercing eyes from above and were finally asked to sit with upper class advisors during all assemblies. The first social event of the year was the Frosh Reception given in our honor by the Juniors at the Geissler hall. Our first meeting was called on November 17, when we elected the class officers for the year as follows: William Spath, presidentg Irene Getsman, vice-presidentg and Bob Twiss, secretary and treasurer. As songsters we furnished a good deal of the material for the operetta, t'Chrysanthemum, in which Norris Saindon upheld the wit of the class as court jester. 40 THE CTHIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL' ln our Sophomore year, the call of the classroom was answered from far and near. We organized as follows: DeVere Pollom, presidentg Irene Getsman, secretary and treasurerg and Norris Saindon, vice-president. Our first party was given on February 21, 1919, and the second one May 21, 1919, at Hartman 8: Nathan hall. ln athletics, Jones and Frederick were out in uniform and played as members of the first team in baseball. As Juniors, in September, we again gathered, but with only forty-five members. Our class met and elected Norman Burnett, presidentg Irene Getsman, vice-president: and Letha Green, secretary and treasurer. The first social event of the year was the Freshman Reception. On December 5, the School Carnival was given, in which we presented the Baby Show. The finest party of the year was the Junior-Senior dance. ln athletics, Hermans, Jones, Knapp and Fredericks were on the baseball squadg Jones, Harms, Green and Forker in football, and Green and Forker in basketball. ln the literary world we furnished four students for The Crimson and Gray staff, Frances Power, Bob Twiss, Irene Getsman, Hallie Knapp and Hazel Miesen. The public speak- ing part of the class was taken by Sara Overmeyer, who was on the debating team. Finally, we entered our Senior yea1'. After three years our hopes had at last been fulfilled. We elected officers as follows: President, Fenton Green, vice-president, Hazel Mieseng secretary and treasurer, Helane Charneski. ln athletics the old stand- bys were again on the list: Bob Twiss, as athletic managerg Jones, Huber, Alexander, Harms, Hermans and Green, in football, and baseball in full swing, we again look over the list, and as usual, we find Senior names, Jones, Hermans, Fredericks and Knapp. The girls' basketball team, on which there were three Seniors, won all the games they played this year. But athletics is not everything. We have shown great ability along literary and social lines. Sara Overmeyer again tried out for debating, and was chosen on the team. The Crimson and G-ray staff was headed by Hazel Miesen the first semester, and Harvey Johnson the second. In the School Carnival for this year, we presented an act, entitled t'The Country School. The operetta, The Gypsy Rover, was given on February 25, in which Hazel Miesen and Stuart Twiss had the leading parts, assisted by a number of other Seniors. The Senior class still further proved its ability in the production of f'Esmeralda. The Senior dance was given November l, and the social events of the year ended when the Senior ball was given at Hartman St Nathan hall on April 15. And now comes the end of the history of the Class of '21. We hope the class will never forget the happy days in High School, and will go forth and have the same success in the broader walks of life as they had during the High School days. ln clos- ing, the class extends to all fellow students and teachers its best wishes, and to the class advisors, Miss Babcock and Mrs. Bacher, its hearty thanks.

These little toddlers suffered many different agonies, especially Norman Bruuswig, the famous fat boy of this wonderful Freshman class. The upperclassmen simply would not let this poor boy alone,-they tickled him, they pinched him, and, oh, hor- rors, the girls winked at him! After a while these insignificant, green, human beings began to grow and show promise. One of their members was put on the basketball team and then the toddlers began to puff. NVeren't they already showing their ability? When at the end of the year they had representatives on the first baseball team, they fairly burst with pride, and got ready for their coming Sophomore year. Our Sophomore year began with the same crowd of wonderful students. They were no longer afraid to be picked on, for hadn't they the right to make fun of the poor little creepers that had just come in as Freshmen? Not only in football, basketball and baseball did they shine, but also in intellectual powers. Two of their most promising students were on the debating team. Victor Olson, a very smart boy, represented them in their Sophomore year, and David O'Con- nor, a boy just as bright, showed his ability in their Junior year. Readers, you have heard of the greatness of their Freshman and Sophomore years, but they do not compare with their magnificent, wonderful, and remarkable Junior year. Their ability was shown in basketball, when their fellow classmen made up almost the whole of the team that tied for the Southwest Vifashington championship. Their musical genius was displayed by Karl Urquhart, one of the sweetest whip-poor- wills you ever heard. You have also heard mentioned David O'Connor in connection with the debating team, but you ought to know that no Junior lays down after his first victory. This wonder boy of the Junior class won the right, through a hard fight, to represent our High School in the county oratorical contest. We are proud to add that he won the honors in the final contest held here in Chehalis. And now, dear readers, as this class has yet another year to continue their mar- velous ability, I must stop praising this wonderful class, as you all know that deeds speak louder than words.

Old rose and silver were chosen as class colors. It was a lively year, starting with the big reception, which was given us by the Juniors in the High School auditorium. At the first Student Body meeting the Freshmen were initiated into the solemni- ties of the C. H. S. Each Freshman climbed upon the stage with shaky knees and was made to introduce- himself, tell his age, and give his highest ambition before those dreadful upperclassmen. At the High School Carnival on December 5, our Japanese tea-room, which was beautiuflly decorated, proved to be a big attraction, besides bringing in 53250. On April 17th we gave an athletic party at the gym, which was well attended. On May 14th, Aunt Samanthy's Picture Album? which was written by Pansy Brown and di- rected by Miss Coffman, was put on in the assembly room. The reproductions were true to life', in both dress and character, and at times the pictures showed signs of becoming moving pictures, especially the bride, who was forced to hide her blushing face in the bridal bouquet of sweet-scented skunk-cabbage. Soon afterwards our Freshman year came to a close, and magically our green- ness departed, for now we were at last on the glorious road to upper' classmanship. When the September bells peeled forth their merry call the greater portion of the Class of '23 returned. Pigtails and knickerbockers had been discarded, and instead of the little children who came trembling up the High School steps one year before, and were greeted by the upperclassmen with shouts of laughter, we were coming now as dignified Sophomores. One of the first things we did was to call a class meeting to elect officers for this second term of 'fHi. Pansy Brown was elected presidentg Dennis Doyle, vice-pres- ident, and Vilva Cory, secretary and treasurer. These officers have performed their duties very satisfactorily. Pansy Brown had to give up school on account of ill health, so the dutiies of president were assumed by Dennis Doyle. The class colors were changed to pink and green, as those chosen last year proved unsatisfactory. On October 31st a Hallowe'en masquerade dance was given at the gym. In the Carnival the class showed enthusiasm and efficiency, as well as talent. The Sopho- mores were represented in the main show by the play lt Pays to Advertise, which was written by Barbara Patterson. Nor was the class lacking in other attractions. Screams of laughter were continually issuing from The House of Mystery, while the little folk were greatly delighted in getting presents from Santa off the HChristmas tree. A candy booth daintily decorated in red and white, attracted many seekers of home-made candies. The Old Still nearly hidden by trees and operated by two dangerous-looking moonshiners, was a leading attraction. 'Old and young alike flocked back into the forest where intoxicating fresh cider was relished at 10 cents a glass. In athletics we were well represented, first in football by the star player, Lewis Tesreau, and by two subs on the team. In basketball, Lewis again starred, while in the Hi Tournament both the boys' and girls' teams brought credit to the class. We also have several men on the baseball field. As the male quartette was in need of a tenor, Glen Rice, a recent member of the class, was admitted, and is now representing us in that branch. We also have added several voices to the girls' glee club. As we put a great deal of our pep into our studies the result is that many Sophomore names appear on the Honor Roll. On April 23d the class gave a dance at the Long residence. When the sweet strains of Home, Sweet Home sounded, all were sorry the evening's gaiety had come to a close. Now the class must bid Farewell to that joyous Sophomore year, so full of work and play, and we will meet again this fall as envied Juniors. 'I'IIl'I UILIMYSHN ,XNIJ GRAY .XXX n u X2 x A , ' DA!

We have all had a first day at school and have all gone through the same experience. We Freshmen were crowded in one corner of the hall like a herd of sheep. We were afraid to move for fear that the upper classmen might-well, in fact, we ex- pected anything, from taking a Hlickin' i' to being murdered. After the bell had rung and we were pulled, pushed and thrown into the assembly, we did our best to get seats, only to discover that we were on the wrong side of the assembly, and were surrounded by upper classmen. We stayed where we were, but the only reason we did so was because we were too frightened to move. After we were given directions and the teachers were introduced, we finally es- caped from the assembly and received our schedule cards. That, however, was only the beginning of our troubles, for we were exposed to the curiosity of the upper class- men while hunting for our rooms. I am glad to say that we all survived, but I am sure that many of us will never forget our first day at the Chehalis High School. At our first class meeting, although we were green, we got along fairly well. The class advisors, Miss Burgess, Miss Coffman, Miss Andrews and Mr. Wolfe, took charge of the meeting. We elected Everett Kirtley, presidentg Theodore Metz, vice-president, and Maxine Ellington, secretary-treasurer. Later on in the year, we chose purple and gold as class colors, and elected James Cantwell as treasurer. Our first social affair was the Freshmen Reception. Of all the horrible things, the one that will linger longest in my memory, is that reception given in honor HJ of the innocent Freshmen. Of course, we we1'e used to being treated roughly by this time, because We had bee11 in High for two weeks, but this was something decidedly different from roughness. Perhaps l had better start at the beginning. We all reached the gym in safety, for that was where we were to be executed, or worse. We huddled around the stove, making believe we were cold, fearing that some- one Would notice us, and of course, they did notice us. The first game was played without the Freshmen participating. We were shy and bashful because this was our first reception. Many other games were played, and then a speech of welcome was given by Harold St. John. This speech was answered by Everett Kirtley, our president. Then it was noticed that some of the boys were missing. VVe had refreshments which we couldn't enjoy, as we feared it was our turn next to disappear, Near the close of the evening some of the boys came back with scents of garlic on them, and tales of ghosts and graveyards. ln spite of our misfortunes, however, we were all present at school the following Monday. At the Carnival the class showed the spirit of the C. H. S. We had the three side- shows, The Green-Eyed Bat, The Wild Man and The Menagerie. Our cartoonist, James Cantwell, had a booth where he did a thriving business drawing portraits. He was busy all the time and was a source of considerable amusement. VVe also had a candy booth and sold all the candy we had. Our part in the main show helped to make a name for us. We must not forget our Class party. NVe all had a grand time in our old clothes, for this was a Hhard-time party. We played games to our hearts' content, and then had refreshments that only the Freshmen girls know how to prepare. We also proved we weren't so bashfnl when the upper classmen are not around. We cannot finish without a good word for the football and basketball boys of our class. Both teams were fast and there with the goods. The girls also had an ex- cellent basketball team. Although we enjoyed our Freshmen year more or less, we look forward to the day when we will be Sophomores. -Theodore Metz ,ZLL XI '11 'l'lII'I1'IlIMSUN ANU IIILAY ANNV. , I ffl Q, Won.

Mr. Bacher graduated fl'O1ll Whitworth College in l9lT after a brilliant athletic career. Four years of football, two years of basketball, and two years oi baseball, go to lllilke up his record. At football hc alternated at fullback and end. and captained his teani in his Junior and Senior years. He came to us this year to continue his record, not as a player, but as a coach. He did this by sending our teams to victory in every branch of athletics. Under his guidance We Won the Southwest Washington championship in football, tied for first place in basketball, and our baseball teani is coming along nicely. Mr. Bacher is a nian, as he has proven in the school and upon the athletic field. He is courteous, kind and just, and is respected by the entire Student Body.

The Alumni team was made up of Chehalis High School stars of the past nine seasons, including Digger Boone, who played half-back for the Pullman Cougars. Never hurt badly in college football, 'tDigger'l received his first serious bump when he was knocked out in the last half of the game and had to be carried off the field. During the first half the teams seemed evenly matched, neither side being able to gain any big yardage. But in the last half the first team held the Alumni to small gains, and Barney Day playing quarter for the Alumni, was downed behind his own goal by Leak Jones, making the only points of the game. This was the first time in many years that Chehalis High has defeated the Alumni. CH IC H ALI S-ELMA GADIE The first game away from home was with Elma at the Elma Fair Grounds. In the first half the home team had the ball several times, but due to many fum- bles did not gain to any advantage. At one time Elma was on the Chehalis seven-yard line, owing to a lucky forward pass, but the Crimson and Gray held like a stone wall and would have gotten the ball on downs had the timekeeper's whistle not blown for the end of the first half. At the kick-off beginning the second half, E. Tesreau recovered the ball behind the Elma goal line, making the first points of the game. From then on it was straight line plunges by Chehalis and every now and then an end run. Two more touchdowns were secured by these tactics. These were made by L. Tesreau and Day. Louie converted goal for both of these, and the game ended 20 to 0. On the whole, Chehalis played a good game, but it was not what it should have been, because of the strangeness of the grounds and its being the first game away from home. CHEHALIS-ULYMPIA GAME Friday morning, October 8, our grid warriors, accompanied by a large delegation of rooters, journeyed to Olympia for the opening of the Southwest Washington League games, scheduled for 2:30 o'clock that afternoon. Olympia got the toss and received, but soon lost the ball on downs, and Chehalis followed suit. The very next time the Crimson and Gray had the ball, L. Tesreau broke through the opposing line for a touchdown, which was the only one made in this quarter. No more points were made until the third period. The playing became more spirited and Olympia endeavored frantically to hold Chehalis down to the score that was made during' the first half, but this Was in vain, and Day, in an end run, went 40 yards for another touchdown. Immediately after the kick-off, Louie Tesreau was knocked out and had to be taken from the game for the remainder of the quarter. Day, in another end ru11, went 60 yards and scored the fifth touchdown. In a spectacular tackle in the open field, Day was laid out for a short period. L. Tesreau equalled Day's run of 60 yards, scoring his fourth touchdown. Much credit was given for the brilliant line plunging of Green, Thornbury and St. John. 62 THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL CH EH ALI S-INIONTESA N 0 GAM IC Outplaying their opponents at nearly every angle of the game, Chehalis defeated Montesano on Millett Field, 13 to 0. This was the second win in the Southwest Washington League, and was witnessed by a large crowd despite sloppy weather conditions. The first quarter ended with the sco1'e of 0 to 0. But the next quarter both teams determined to get the best of it. As a result, L. Tesreau smashed through the adversary's line and over for the first touchdown. The last half was featured by forward passes and punts by both teams. Knapp got away with two well executed passes, and with a series of line smashes and off-tackle plays the ball was worked up to lVIonte's five-yard line, and the ball was lost on downs. In a critical moment on the first down, Abel, Montesano fullback, who was about to punt out of danger, fumbled, and E. Tesreau recovered it on the goal line, making the score 13 to 0 in favor of the Crimson and Gray. SECOND EMMA GAME The Elma eleven came to Chehalis Saturday, October 30, to play a return game with our team, and as a result were badly defeated, for they were hopelessly outclassed in every phase of the game. In the first quarter Coach Bacher played the regular line-up, who put the ball over three times, L. Tesreau kicking goal each time, but in the second quarter the coach began to send in substitutes, and at the end of the game all had been sent in. Southerly, Elma left end, had his knee badly misplaced in the last quarter. All told, Barney was responsible for three of the nine touchdowns made. Louie, Green and Hermans were responsible for the remaining six. CAMP LICXVIS Allll-STA IR GAM E Chehalis received her first defeat at the hands of the strong Camp Lewis All-Stars. This team was made up largely of West Point graduates and former college players, including Roderick, all-American halfback. They outweighed Chehalis over thirty pounds to the man, but despite this fact, our eleven held them to a 16 to 0 game, which was the smallest score the All-Stars had piled up against an opposing team. And they played some good teams, including the College of Puget Sound, St. Martin's College, and the Navy team from Bremerton. The battle began with Camp Lewis receiving, who started smashing their way toward the goal line. Before Chehalis had settled down to real fighting the visitors were able to score on a place-kick, and to put over one touchdown, The quarter ended 9 to 0 in their favor. In the second quarter, they soon found the proposition was not quite so easy. Chehalis began to make yardage, and were on the enemy's 20-yard line, when un- fortunately a Camp Lewis man intercepted a forward pass and ran 90 yards for a touchdown, after which goal was kicked. This, however, ended the scoring for the rest of the game. The last half was featured by much aerial playing, and Chehalis kept the ball well within Camp Lewis territory. The All-Stars used all their substitutes in a vain effort to regain the advantage. Chehalis was several times in reach of the goal, but failed to put the ball over and the game ended with the score 16 to 0 in favor of the All-Stars. SECOND MON'l'l+ISANO GAM lil ' Montesano desired another chance after her first defeat by the Crimson and Gray, and this was granted, resulting in a second defeat. l. . THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL 63 The mix-up began when Chehalis kicked off to the Montesano eleven, who worked the pigskin up the field and over the line, but failed to kick goal. Chehalis then got busy and L. Tesreau carried the ball over before the visitors knew what had happened. The ball was brought out to the 20-yard line and L. Tesreau kicked goal. The half ended 7 to 6 with Chehalis on top. In the first part ofthe last half, Chehalis was unable to make yardage, and Louie executedone of his famous punts. Montesano then attempted a forward pass, which was intercepted by Ll. Tesreau. On the very next play, Harms, on tackle back, waded through Monty,s line with the pigskin for fifteen yards. A few minutes later Green went over for another touchdown. Both teams punted repeatedly in the final period, but Chehalis managed to work the ball to within striking distance of the enemy's goal and L. Tesreau again carried the ball over. The game ended 20 to 6 in favor of Chehalis. CH lil HALI S-Alilflli-DEl1lN GAM IG It was the winning of this game that landed the much coveted title of Southwest NVashington for the Crimson and Gray. This was the first time that Aberdeen had been beaten by Chehalis High in nineteen yea1's. The game, which had been looked forward to for some time, was witnessed by the largest crowd that ever gathered at Millett Field for a football game. As Aberdeen was considered Chehalis' toughest rival and no team had yet scored on them, the first quarter was rather disheartening for the Crimson and Gray, when Ingram slipped over a drop-kick. But in the second quarter the spirit rose again when L. Tesreau retaliated by putting over a similar one. The first half ended three all. With the starting of the last half until the end of the game, the first team played as no other Crimson and G-ray team did before. The onslaught started when Louie smashed through the enemy line like a battle tank in action, for the first touchdown. Soon our grid heroes were again on Aberdeen's five-yard line, and in a line smash Green scored the second touchdown, but Tesreau failed to kick goal. The next touch- down was made in the last part of the quarter when Elmer Tesreau carried the pig- skin over the line on an off-tackle play. Day carried the ball over again at the begin- ning of the last quarter and L. Tesreau kicked goal. Putting forth everything they had, the Aberdeen eleven beat back the Crimson and Gray to their five-yard line. Here- they attempted a forward pass in an effort to make the goal line, only to have it intercepted by Day, who ran the length of the field for another touchdown, falling exhausted. The last touchdown of the game was made by St. John on a forward pass. For Chehalis, 44 points were in their favor, while Aberdeen had to be contented with three. CH EH ALI S-VANCOUVER GAME Armistice Day brought a severe setback for the football hopes of Chehalis High. On November 10th, Coach Bacher gathered together his clan of warriors and started south, and on arrival in Vancouver were escorted to their hotel in cars furnished by the High School students, and the next morning were taken on a tour of the city of Vancouver. ' Vancouver won a very decisive victory, the score being 58 to 0. Nevertheless, the score does not tell the real quality of the two teams. The Vancouver line, which was well drilled and a little heavier than that of Che- halis, opened huge holes in our line for the backs to plow through. Kin Dubois, Van- couver fullback, and Griffith, halfback, went for a gain nearly every time they had the ball. 64 Tl-IE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL A severe wind hampered Louie's punting and it was impossible to punt out of danger during the first half. Coach Hap Milleris men showed good form and were very well drilled, especially on line smashes. CH E H A Ll S-ASTURIA GAME For the last game of the season, Astoria was defeated Thanksgiving Day on Millett Field by a score of 60 to 0. Chehalis won the toss and received, but soon lost to the Oregonians on a fumble. Day intercepted a forward pass and went for a huge gain. L. Tesreau then circled right end for a touchdown, but missed goal. Astoria was unable to make yardage and punted out of danger. L. Tesreau was soon over again, this time kicking goal. The second quarter was more of a walkaway than the first. The first touchdown was made by E. Tesreau and the next by Day in one of his famous end runs, this one being for fifty-five yards. E. Tesreau then went over for another touchdown, which was followed by one by Hermans on a forward pass. The next touchdown proved to be the last one of the quarter, made by 'KLouief' During the third period only a single touchdown was made, and this was by Green, who also made the final touchdown in the last quarter.

His steady playing was a big asset to the team. He will not be with the High School next year. ROUSSEAU THORNBURY, '22 Tackle and Halfback A good man to have in the back-field as well as on the line. 'tDingleberry always had plenty of nerve and fight, and was in every play. Another man around whom next year's football team will be built. HAROLD ST. JOHN, '22 End and Halfback The lightest yet one of the headiest men on the team, his fighting quali- ties easily overcoming his lack of weight. A consistent trainer and very popular with his team-mates. Tl-IIC CRINISON A JAKE HUBER, '2 1 Guard Brother of Karl and Frank Huber, fcrnier C. H. S. football stars. Jake was a good man in the line, because he knew how to hit the opposing line, and how to prevent them coming through. He leaves C. H. S. this year. FENTON GREEN, '21 Captain and Fullback Fenton was an especially hard line plunger. In critical moments of the game Grcenie displayed more fight than any other man on the team. It was his third and last year for C. H. S. LEO JONES, '21 Tackle , Smith was a good fighter and a hard man to get by. On the defense he tackled low and hard, never miss- ing them, and would tackle anything from a goal post to the Smith build- ing. His second and last year for the Chehalis High School. I l1IlllSON AND GRAY ANNUAL JAMES HARMS, '2 1 Tackle To make a hole in the opposing line big enough to drive a hay Wagon through was no trouble at all for Tubby. His absence in next year's line will certainly be noticed. ELMER TESREAU, '22 Halfback and Center Elmer displayed the fight that wins football games. Starting in at his old position at center he was shifted to halfback, where he played a fast, heavy hitting, and ground gaining game. He also will be back next year. HALLIE KNAPP, '2 1 End Knapp, a strong bidder for an end position last year, was put out of the game with a dislocated shoulder. He turned out this year and won the cov- eted HC. Although he is small, he plays a good game at end by breaking the interference and grabbing passes. He graduates from C. H. S. this year. THE CRIMSON AND LEWIS TESREAU, '23 Right Halfback Louie distinguished himself as the best punter in Southwest Washington and no doubt the state. His punting averages along with that of College players. His second season on squad. WILLIAM ALEXANDER, '22 Guard Playing football for the first time at guard position, Bill showed that he has the makings of a real football player. Next year will see him one of the strongest players in the line. KARL URQUHART, '22 Guard Karl played a hard, scrappy game all season and well earned the right to wear his HC. Returning next year, he will prove a valuable man i11 the line. His first year on the team. ' LTIXISON AND GRAY AIQYHATZ BYRON DAY, '22 Quarterback f'Barney was the headiest man on the 1919 and 1920 squads. Consid- ered the best broken field runner and safety man in the Northwest, and was the only man on the team to have won two football 'tC's previous to the past season. FRANK GRIFFITH, '22 Center Although Frank's position was far from spectacular, he showed his steadiness and ability to pass the ball exactly where it was wanted. He will help to make the team next year as strong as ever. ROBERT TWISS, '21 Business Manager i'Bob', has run the affairs of the C. H. S. A. A. this year with fine results. He has handled the financial end oi the Association about as successfully as it has ever been handled.

His floor work and passing was a feature of every game. He was also unsurpassed by anyone in the league as a dribbler. This was his third year on the team, and his loss will be greatly felt, pro- viding he does not return next year. HAROLD ST. JOHN, Guard Harold St. John at guard showed his ability in every game to check hard and fast. 'fJohnny was on his toes from start to finish, his 'fpep being a great help in winning the games. As a result he was named on the All Southwest Washington first team along with Day, at a conference of coaches held in Centralia. This was his third year, and he will also be back next year. ELMER TESREAU, Center Elmer Tesreau, playing at the center position, was one of the best in the League, outjumping nearly everyone of his opponents. Elmer was named on the All Star sec- ond team. He was good at shooting baskets, especially long ones, and was going every minute of the play. LE WIS TESREAU, Forward 'fLouie Tesreau was f'there when it came to rolling them in from under the basket, and also good at long shots. He was named as a forward on the All Star second team, and will be one of the Inainstays on next yearls squad. ROUSSEAU THORNBU RY, Guard Rousseau Thornbury displayed real basketball all through the season. His splen- did guarding was a big factor in keeping down the opponents' scores. Dingleberry was a good trainer and exhibited a good, clean brand of basketball. Fortunately for C. H. S., he will be back next year, ALBERT SCHUSS, Forward Albert Schuss started in this year as a forward on the second team, and for his excellent work there, was given a place on the first team, where he gave a good account of himself. HAI was good at baskets and could cover the floor in fine style. He, also, will return next year. ERNEST CREECH, Guard Ernest Creech was another player who started in on the second team, and later given a berth on the first team. Through his excellent passing and ability to hold his man, he will have no trouble in landing a place on next year's team, Byron Day, Forwards, 'l'l-IE CRllVISON AND GRAY ANNUAL Basketball---1 92 1 SCORES 45 High School Alumni .7,,........ 6 37 Onalaska Athletic Club ,7,,,..,.Y.,.. .... . 23 40 Tenino High School ....,,......,,,,.,.,,,.,., ,. 9 38 Oregon institute of Technology ..,lY,7 , 20 31 Celltralia High School ,,....,,,,,,,.,l..,..,, . 29 32 Centralia High School ,..., 4 67 Raymond High School ,,,,. .... . 12 45 Aberdeen High School ,.,.. ..... 2 5 18 Hoquiam High School ....r,.. ,... . 20 36 Montesano High School ,...,, ,.... 2 2 34 South Bend High School ,,,,.. .. 9 49 29 .. .....,,,.,.......,. 501.

In the last half the Alumni were swept off their feet and, when the melee ended the scoreboard read 45 to 6 in favor of the High School. The next game was a practice game with the Onalaska Athletic Club. The game was last throughout, the Onalaska team being in the lead at the end of the first half. But at the beginning ol' the last hall' Chehalis came back strong and easily won the game by a 37 to 23 score. 'I THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL ll The following Friday our boys defeated the Tenino High School team in the first game of the Southwest Washington League championship series. Tenino was com- pletely outclassed, being able to get only one field basket during the entire game. Tuesday night, February 1, the first team edged Centralia out of a fast and hard fought game. This was the first real thrilling game of the season. The score was tied 29 to 29, and almost time for the whistle, when Schuss dropped in the winning points. The final score was Chehalis 31, Centralia 29. On the night of February 5th, Centralia came over for a return game. This was a much better game than the first one, and was witnessed by an exceptionally large crowd. In the first half Centralia didn't even get a look-in, Day, Tesreau and Schuss dropping baskets i11 from all angles, while St. John and Green did splendid work in keeping the Centralia forwards from shooting. ln the last half the visitors succeeded in getting but one basket, and the game ended 34 to 4. In one of the best exhibitions of basketball ever played on the local floor, Che- halis High defeated the Oregon Institute of Technology quint with a score of 38 to 20. The Oregon team had an excellent record in and around Portland, as a fast aggregation and defeating all the best teams there. February 12 was the date of the next slaughtering. Raymond was decidedly out- classed in every department of the game. Captain Day played the stellar game, cop- ping twelve field goals and three from fouls, totaling 27 tallies for his team. E. Tes- reau was second with six field goals. Peterson, Early and Younglove played the best game for Raymond. The score at the end of the game was 67 to 12. The Harbor trip netted the first defeat for the Crimson and Gray, that with Ho- quiam. The first night Aberdeen was encountered and resulted in another win for Chehalis. The game was well played, but our basket tossers displayed too much team- work for the Harbor boys, completely breaking up Coach Craig's five-man defense system. The final score was 45 to 25. Saturday night, which was the night after the Aberdeen game, our team went down to defeat for the first time at the hands of Hoquiam. Luck favored Hoquiam from start to finish, but the Chehalis team never once stopped plugging away. Elmer smiled his usual way throughout the game, and Johnny and Dingleberry did their usual splendid guarding. Nevertheless Hoquiam managed to get two points better, and the game ended 18 to 20 in favor of Hoquiam. The following Week Montesano came to the fair city of Chehalis with the idea that another basketball victory was theirs, but went back home feeling much different. At first it was hard to tell which was the better five, but soon the Crimson and Gray was off and Montesano, in spite of all her efforts, was unable to catch up, the game ending 36 to 22 in favor of Chehalis. Our next victim was South Bend. This was a scheduled game in the Southwest Washington League and was played on the local floor. South Bend started off with a rush, displaying some good teamwork and fast playing. The half ended 14 to 6, for Chehalis. ln the last half Chehalis tightened up and allowed only one field basket, while they grabbed eight field baskets and four from fouls. When the whistle blew the score stood 34 to 9. L. Tesreau was high point man in this game with 15 to his credit. Chehalis walloped the Olympia five on their floor by a score of 49 to 19. From the start, our team was in the lead, the first half ending 27 to 9. The second half was the same old story, a walkaway. Barney Day was the star basket shooter for Chehalis, gathering in 21 of the 49 points, with L. Tesreau coming in with 8, E. Tes- reau 6, Schuss 6, and St. John 8. A neutral floor was necessary to play the next game, that with Montesano, After a hard fought game in which every man on the floor played his best, Chehalis emerged the victor by a. score of 29 to 23. This game was to have decided the Southwest Washington League championship, but by the ruling of the Washington Athletic Asso- ciation, a tie existed between Montesano and Chehalis for first place in the League, and according to another ruling at a meeting of coaches in Centralia, the cup was to remain with Chehalis for another year. A 'FHM CRIMSON ANIJ GRAY ANXVAT it LEXVTS COUNTY LEAGUE ISASKIQTIEALI, TIGAINI Lowry Knapp Jeffries Dugaw Kcu11edy W.. THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL Nl Lewis County Basketball League The Lewis County Basketball League was introduced into the schools of Lewis County for the first time this year. The idea. of this Association was to give more boys a chance to partake in athletics. The rules prescribed by this League eliminate all players who are first team membe1's of the Southwest XVashington Basketball League in their respective schools. A great deal of interest was shown in the League and the boys put up a pretty good brand of basketball. The League, of course, can be im- proved in many ways, and it is expected to show up good 'in the future. The teams composing the League were: Mossyrock, Adna, NVinlock, Napavine, Centralia, Chehalis, Doty, Klaber, Onalaska and Pe Ell. NVinlock had a splendid team and went through the entire season undefeated. They were presented with a loving cup by the Holly-Mar Company, of Centralia. The Crimson and Gray team had an unlucky season, and only succeeded in winning two of the games on their schedule. The boys nevertheless worked hard, and with another year's training will develop i11to a strong team. Those who won letters in the C. H. S. were Hallie Knapp, centerg Edmund Lowry, guardg Kennedy, guardg Michael Dugaw, forward: and lVlilton Jeffries, forward. They were an invaluable asset to the first team in the fact that they furnished good, hard opposition. Night after night the Seconds made the first team get up and show some speed. The High is proud of these boys and expect great things of them in the future. MJ 'I'llIG CIIIMSUN ANI? GRAY ANNUAL COACH llljhl-IN IIANSISN Miss Helen llansen, just out of the University of Washington, had all the up-to-date dope on girls' basket- ball. As Chehalis had not been having girls' basketball for the past few years, it was hard to re-establish it. Miss Hansen took a squad of girls who had not played any basketball before and turned out a team that was not defeated during the entire season, and they played the best teams in the county. In college Miss Hansen played center for two years, at which position she made an enviable record. Not only at basketball was she good, but she was the star second baseman on the girls' baseball nine. Miss Hansen must be complimented on her first year as a coach. Not only is she a good coach, but she pos- sesses a wonderful personality that has made her a favorite with all the students. We do not know whether she will be here next year or not, but we hope sincerely that she will. If she is not, we are assured that she will have a successful team wherever she may be.

The outlook at the beginning was exceptionally bright and continued all through the year. The girls were splendidly coached by Miss Hansen throughout the season. There were not enough girls turning out for each class to have a class team, but the Juniors and Freshmen had full teams, while the Sophomores and Seniors, combined to make their team. The first game of the season was the Freshman-Senior and Sophomore game, resulting in the defeat of the Freshmen. The next game, the Junior- Senior and Sophomore game resulted in the victory of the Juniors, giving them the interclass championship. The Junior class has held the cup for two consecutive years. More important than the class teams was the girls' first team. As 'shown in the inter-class games, there was plenty of good material and we were all anxious to see what our girls could do. Miss Hansen selected the following girls to serve on the team: Centers+Sara Overmeyer fgeneral managerl, Hazel Miesen and Ella Scalf. Forwards-Alfreda Beck, Hazel Anderson and Helen Roisom. Guards-Edna Smith, Ruby Anderson Lcaptainj, and Elenora Stout.

In the try- out there were sixteen contestants. The three chosen for the team were Ernest Ross, David O'Connor and Sara Overmeyer. The year has proved a successful one for Che- halis. We joined the Southwest Washington Debating League, of which Superin- tendent Cook is manager, with a great deal of pep and enthusiasm, determined to win from every school we debated. With this in mind, the Chehails debaters went to work to write debates which could not be beaten, and we won from all the schools in our schedule, and tied for the championship of Southwest Washington. The first debate of the season was held at Chehalis November 5, 1920, and was between Chehalis and the Capital City. The question to be debated was, t'Resolved, That as a prerequisite to the right of strike or lockout, employers and employes should be required to submit industrial disputes to arbitration. Olympia certainly had a fine team, one that did justice to their side of the question, and one that Olympia could well be proud of, They had their question well in hand and their delivery was good. The debate was exciting from the start and grew more so as it continued. Both Olympia and Chehalis stood their ground and delivered blow after blow at each other. A battle of brains was raging. Olympia was striking for every blow received. Yet Chehalis stood its ground. The debate was overg the rebuttal began. On rebuttal Chehalis took the lead from the start and held it until the end oi' the debate. They upheld the affirmative side of the question so well that the debate resulted in a decision of three to nothing in favor of Chehalis. Encouraged by the result of this first debate, Chehalis went into the next one with GVGII more vim and pep. The team worked hard preparing the debate, which was destined to bring us another victory. This debate took place at Castle Rock on December 10, 1920. Castle Rock certainly had a fine bunch of debaters, but Chehalis proved more than a match for them, and it was plain even to their school, that we held tl1e advantage throughout the entire debate. This debate resulted in a victory of three to nothing in favor of Chehalis. The Chehalis debaters unanimously agree that Castle Rock gave us a good time, and we appreciate their hospitality. - By this time Chehalis might have been over-confident, but the fact that our next debate was with Centralia, a city which like Chehalis, held a clean record, having never been defeated, somewhat held our confidence in check. However, the Chehalis team, who this time upheld the affirmative, never lost courage. On February 4, 1921, Chehalis met Centralia in our home town. The Chehalis team began the debate with splendid arguments, but Centralia came back with arguments that Chehalis had not encountered before. All three of the Centralia debaters were orators. Their argu- ments were new and hard to answer. Time and again, Chehalis felt herself slipping under the eloquence and soundness of Centralia's arguments. They meant to win, but a clear record had made them over-confident. They did not reckon that Chehalis, too, had orators, that Chehalis, too, could bring up new arguments, but most of all thcy did not reckon that Chehalis could successfully rebut all arguments which they brought up. Throughout the debate Centralia held her own. The Chehalis debaters realized this and fought valiantly to outdo Centralia. The rebuttals were Chehalis' oppor- tunity, for this was Centralia's weak point. Time after time the Chehalis debaters pounded their opponents' evidence with telling arguments. The outcome of the debate was two to one in favor of Chehalis, leaving our team still undefeated. The last debate of the season was held at Camas o11 March 4, 1921. Our principal, Professor Bennett, went with us. The team went to Camas very confident, but found the Camas debaters hard to beat. Their team had its material well in hand and well organized. They were especially good in rebuttal, and although it was evident that Sli THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL Chehalis held the advantage throughout the debate, Camas gave us the most exciting debate of the season. Camas hit Chehalis, and Chehalis hit Camas so hard that the chairman said, just before announcing the decision of the judges, that he felt as though he had spent the last hour and a hall' in No lVlan's Land. The decision was two to one in favor of Chehalis. This concluded the debates of the season. Out of the sixteen schools participating in the Southwest Washington debate contests, Che- halis was tied with Boistfort High School for the championship. It was then decided to have a draw debate between the two teams on March 18, 1921. Boistfort upheld the affirmative side of the subject and Chehalis the negative. This debate was held at Boistfort, and both teams were at their best striving for the championship. The decision was two to one in favor of Boistfort. The Chehalis debaters feel that they have been amply paid for their work, not only from the standpoint of victory, but because of the real help that has come to us through debate. Two members of the team, Sara Overmeyer and Ernest Ross, will graduate this year, but David O'Connor will be in school another year. With the pep that is characteristic of our school, and with Miss Coffman as debate coach, Chehalis High School looks forward to a live debating season next year, Public Speaking For several years the high schools of Lewis County have held declamatory con- tests for county championships, each school being represented by one contestant. This year it was decided to change it to a public speaking contest and have each one par- ticipating write his own oration. The judges were chosen from outside the county. They were Superintendent Dunton of Castle Rock, Superintendent Gwinn of Tenino, and Arthur S. Taylor of Olympia. The judging was to be done through a system ol' points, as follows: Thought, 25 percent, literary and grammatical construction, 25 percentg expression, 20 percentg poise, 15 percent, and voice, 15 percent. In the local tryout, only two took part, Huber Butcher and David O'Connor. The latter won the decision and represented the Chehalis High School in the county con- test, which was held in the Chehalis High School auditorium on the evening of April 22, 1921. Our principal, Professor Bennett, presided as chairman. There was a large crowd and many High School rooters for Mr. O'Connor. The orations came off in fine style. Every speaker was at his best and all were good, but when the points were counted it was found that O'Connor had carried the honors l'or Chehalis, having Won first place. O'Connor's delivery is free and natural, and his talent is remarkable, Chehalis lligli School was fortunate in having him as its representative. This contest gave to our school the public speaking championship for Lewis County. IE CRIINISON ANI?

The Associated Students of C. H. S. The Associated Students of C. H. S. is an organization with every student as a member. The purpose of this association is to develop responsibility, improve self- expression, promote interest in school activities, to teach students parliamentary usage, and to transact all student affairs. This organization is governed by a constitution drawn up by the students and supplemented by Roberts' Rules of Order. We are proud of our Student Body, because it is truly an energetic, enterprising Association. Meetings are held twice a month, on the first and third Fridays. Any business pertaining to school that the Student Body governs is put before the Associa- tion and discussed thoroughly, and they adopt or reject it as they see fit, with the ap- proval of the Principal. These discussions are very spirited at times, and the attitude of every student is shown, and in this Way they may understand each other better. Not only in a business way is the Student Body a success, but it brings the stu- dents together, and firmly unites them for the betterment of the Chehalis High School. The underclassmen very soon get the good spirit of the school, and by the time they reach the upper classes they are well able to keep that spirit at its highest. The success of our association this year was due to the executive ability of our president, Emery Hermans, and the co-operation of all other officers. NVith the splen- did support of the students and the faculty, our association is strongest it has ever been, and it is the desire of every student, that the strength of the association be maintained. Hot Lunch The Hot Lunch Department of the Chehalis High School has grown to be one of the most prominent organizations of the school. With Mrs. White at the head of the department, it is now in such a splendid organized order, it is not likely that it will be changed for some time to come. This department was established at the beginning of the second semester of the school term 1914-1915. The work was volunteer work on the part of the students, which did not prove to be very satisfactory. ln the fall of 15, students enrolled for a whole year and were given one credit for the entire year's work. In 1917 it was thought advisable to change the order of the department, and students were allowed only one semester work with one credit. After the lapse of three or four years, the instructors have at last fallen upon the present plan of the department. Girls who have had two years of cooking are eligible to enrollment for one whole year's work and are given full credit for their work. Previous to the second semester of this year, the boys were allowed to help the girls prepare the noon-day lunch for the High School students, but they are now only allowed outside of the Hot Lunch Department window, where everyone lines up laughing and talking. The patronage received by the Hot Lunch Department indicates its popularity. THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL THE CRIMSON AND GRAY STAFF THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL 91 The Crimson and Gray lt was not definitely decided whether we should have a school paper or not until the beginning of this school year, when the Student Body voted in favor of it. A nomi- nating committee was appointed to select the prospective candidates for editor and business manager. This committee decided upon Hazel Miesen and Frances Power as candidates for editor, Sara Overmeyer, Ruby Ely and Norman Brunswig for busi- ness manager. Hazel Miesen was elected editor, and Sara Overmeyer business manager. The new editor then set about to choose her staff. The following were selected: Frances Power, associate editorg Pansy Brown, societyg Harvey Johnson, athleticsg Letha Green, jokes, David O'Connor, poetg Irene Getsman, personals, Walter Wynn, circulation manager, Doris Scherer and Jack Rehm, Freshmen reportersg Juanita Goodhard, Sophomore reporter, Elmira Overmeyer, Junior reporterg and Clara Sherlie, Senior reporter. The business manager launched a campaign for subscriptions. The students responded with fine spirit, and in a short time over two hundred subscrip- tions were paid up. Under Hazel Miesen, the staff put out an excellent paper, which recorded many athletic triumphs of Chehalis over her rivals. Pansy Brown and VValter Wynn resigned from the staff in December, and their positions were filled by Irene Getsman and Jack Rehm, who were shifted from other staff positions, All went well until the last of the semester, when the editor, business manager and Senior reporter handed in their resignations. The nominating committee met, and selected Harvey Johnson as editor, and Ruby Ely as business manager. These nominations met with the approval of the Student Body. The new editor appointed Hallie Knapp as athletic reporter, and Stuart Twiss, Senior reporter. The second semester everything ran smoothly, and the staff put out a very successful paper. Miss Nelson, who served as critic for the entire year, deserves a great deal of credit and thanks for her efficient assistance in making The Crimson and Gray a live school paper.

THE CHIBTSON AND GRAY ANNUAL 93 The Girls' Glee Club In 1918 a Girls' Sextette was organized by our music teacher, Miss McKee. The girls were Fay Johnson, Gracie Ross, Myrtle Strom, Irene Getsman, Esther Troxel and Mabel Motter. Their accompanist was Edith Travis. The girls made one trip during the year, when they were asked to sing for the Older Girls' Conference at Montesano. In 1919 Miss MeKee organized a Glee Club. There were twelve girls: Helen Roisom, Evangeline Sowers, Hazel Miesen, Irene Getsman, Frances Power, Letha Green, Nellis McBroom, Josephine Powell, Helen Clark, Ruth Fuson, Arta Pollom and Edith Talbott. Their accompanist was Edna Robinson. The girls did war work by singing at inany patriotic meetings. In 1920 Miss Melcher was our music teacher. Those belonging to the Sextette were Hazel Miesen, Evangeline Sowers, Letha Green, Irene Getsman, Nellis McBroon1 and Helen Clark. Their accompanist was Frances Power. The Sextette sang several times for the Citizens' Club. This year, 1921, we have a Glee Club consisting of the following girls: Rosemary Nacht, Hazel Miesen, Irene Getsman, Evangeline Sowers, Estella Allison, Sara Over- meyer, Helen Roisom, Maxine Ellington, Dorothy Jacobson, Marian Robertson, Marie Pakar, Letha Green and Nellis McBroom: Frances Power, accompanist. The girls have sung for many High School affairs this year. The only outside town in which they sang was Onalaska. High School Orchestra The High School Orchestra was organized in November of this school year under the direction of Mr. Wolfe. The orchestra was divided i11to two sections, those who had studied music, and the beginners. The beginners assumed the title of Junior Orchestra, and those who had studied music were given the name Senior Orchestra. The Senior Orchestra appeared in public several times and received the hearty ap- plause of their audiences. The members were Irene Getsman, Corlyss Downs, Ida Price, Harold Frederick, Harvey Johnson, Norman McKenzie, Richard Jackson and Huber Butcher. The Junior Orchestra has made wonderful progress because they were always on time and never afraid of work. The following students were in the Junior Orchestra: Pearl Jennings, Regina Pearsall, Marie Hayton, Georgia and Mary Lewis. R A Y A N N U A SHN AND GILAY ANN 98 THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL Chehalis High School Band The Chehalis High School has been very fortunate in having the splendid instruc- tion of Professor Wright for the band this term. He has had many years of experience in teaching music, and has been bandmaster of successful bands both in America and in foreign countries. The excellent progress of our school band is due to Professor NVright's ability, and to the enthusiasm and honest efforts of the boys, who have tried to make the best of their opportunity. At the beginning of school, a meeting of those interested in music was called, and in a short time a band was organized, comprising twenty boys. Ernest Ross was chosen president and Charles Zachman secretary-treasurer. Then followed weeks of energetic, but pleasant, work. The first appearance of the band was on the evening of December 5th, at the High School Carnival, where we, at least, won the charitable applause of our fellow students and teachers. Later we won approval playing before the school, and recently we pleased a large audience at the Parent-Teacher Associations banquet. The band's high-light was its appearance at the Commencement exercises of the High School, which caused the school and all Chehalis to sit up and take notice. The personnel of the band includes: Professor S. E. Wright, bandmasterg Ernest Ross, president, Charles Zachman, secretary-treasurerg Jake Huber, Leonard Sonnemann, Elmer Schwartz, John Twiss, Frank Eaton, Don Magoon, Philip Over- meyer, George Sexton, Kermit Belcher, Herman Schwartz, Ernest Sexton, Wallace Senn, Harold Givens, Gerald Nacht, John Paniczsko, Ralph Sexton and Fred Pierson. The Gperetta The annual Operetta, given by the Class of '21, Saturday, February 26th, was a splendid success. The cast of characters, which was wisely and carefully selected, consisted of the following characters: Meg ...................... ....... ............ L e tha Green Zara ...... ........ N ellis McBrooIn Marto ...... ......... N orman Burnett Sinfo ............ ...... H arry Packenham Rob ......................... .......... S tuart Twiss Lady Constance ....... .......

G us Parrish The chorus, which made several appearances, also did much towards completing the already glowing success of the Operetta.

Rob grows to manhood among the gypsies, believing Meg and Marto to be his parents. It happens one day, while riding with her fiancee, Lord Craven, Lady Constance Martendale is lost in the woods. They wander to the gypsy camp, where Constance and Rob meet and fall in love. Craven objects to Rob's attitude, but in a very funny comedy scene with Marto and Sinfo, he is made to tell Sir George, who comes in search of Constance, that Rob is a charming fellow. In Act II., Rob goes to the home of Constance and serenades her. They plan to elope, but are overheard by Craven, who informs Sir George. Rob is captured and thrown into prison, but later escapes. Two years elapse, and Rob has come into his inheritance, his identity having been proven by Meg. He becomes a successful composer, a friend of the Prince, and a social lion. Constance has been true to her gypsy lover, and upon his return to England, he woos and wins her for his wife, and as Rob says, t'The good fairies have led me to the beautiful country after all, and our story, Constance, can end in the proper way. They lived happily ever after. Our Carnival On December 5th, the annual High School Carnival held sway. For weeks be- fore, we students had whispered mysterious secrets to each other and practiced our vaudeville stunts. The Seniors quit fighting with the Freshmen over the most desir- able rooms and everyone got down to real hard work, which was fun, though. As this is one of the biggest events of the year, the whole town, as well as the school, turned out en masse for the hilarious time. The Carnival was run on the plan of a circus, the side shows opening at T o'clock and the main show at 9:30. I When I first entered the building I could not hear myself think. Clowns and other fantastical creatures grabbed me and yelled about some Ugreen-eyed bat in a Cider Still being i'jailed by a Baby Show and a Dutch Tea Garden. When 1 finally collected the few senses l possessed, 1 noted that there were attractive candy booths in the hall. People were rushing about laughing and saying, Did you see the Babies? No, I hadn't, so I asked a tall farmer where I could find them. He grabbed me and said You're pinched! and jerked me up several flights of stairs and deposited me before a very solemn judge ton the order of Harold Lloydl, who fined me a dime and told me to be seated. A stage had been fixed and soon the curtain was drawn, and the cleverest looking girls sang and danced. Much to my sorrow I found out that they were boys. That ended it! I fled into the Baby Show. Such adorable darlings! I recognized David O'Connor as f'Little Boy Blue, and Beatrice Jones, who lisped such a cunning piece for us. VVe were given presents from a Christmas tree by the darlings. I walked down the hall and got mixed up in the band. They were rendering several good selections and I felt reluctant to leave. However, I had my picture drawn by the Frosh artist, who claims that l was a hard subject to draw. Must have been, too, as I saw no likeness between myself and the picture. I ventured into the Freshmen Animal Show and saw the Great Green-Eyed Bat. I was stuffing delectable candies into my mouth during all of this tirad. Soon I journeyed down the stairs and into the Crazy House, where I fell all over everybody, myself included. This dark and stormy passage ended in the Cider Still,', where I drank several big glasses of sweet cider made by two red-nosed moon- shiners out of a still borrowed from the Sheriff. Next I went to see the Sophomore Christmas tree, and Santie gave me a cute dollie. Feeling starved and nerve-racked, l wandered into the t'Dutch Chocolate Shop, where excellent sherbet and wafers were served. After resting a few minutes I was rushed up to the Main Show, where a Country Schooln was being viewed. Such terrible scholars and such a school- 102 THE CRTBISUN AND GRAY ANNUAL master. The take-offs on characters were excellent, The Sissy and Fat Girl doing their parts to a The next act was a lovely f'Nymph Dance by the Frosh. Then the funniest Minstrel Show. The darkies were perfectly splendid and pulled off some clever jokes and tricks. Brother Brunswig set the whole house wild by his shimmying. The Junior girls acted out several of the late songs in costumbre, which was very effective: especially 'ASO Long Oo Long. Then the Sophomores put on a little playlet which was exceedingly clever, having been written and directed by one of the Sophomore girls. After this treat I had to force myself to go home, but on the way out I bought some more of that excellent candy and popcorn and vowing to never miss one of the Chehalis High School Carnivals. Class of 1921 Stages Popular Play Esmeralda, which was staged in the High School auditorium by the Senior class on the evenings of May 13 and 14, is a pleasing comedy, in four acts. The play was written by the well known authors, Francis Hodgson Burnett and William l-I. Gillette. The story of the play is as follows: The Rogers family, Mrs. Rogers, Mr. Rogers a11d Esmeralda, living in their little home in the mountains of North Carolina, are quite contented, except for Mrs. Rogers, who is high-spirited, and consequently feels she- is but wasting her life there. At the first offer, she consents to sell the farm for almost nothing, to an American spec- ulator, George Drew, who thinks he has discovered ore on the land. Through the timely intervention of Dave Hardy, Esmeralda's sweetheart, who secures enough to enable the family to move to Paris, where, she immediately sets out to secure a mar- quis for the hand of Esmeralda. The Desmond family, Jack, Kate and Nora, who are studying art in Paris, be- came acquainted with the Rogersf discover Dave, who has followed Esmeralda to Paris, and learn through Mr. Estabrook, a man of leisure, that the vein of ore is on Dave's land and that the Rogers' are penniless. After a stormy scene with Mrs. Rog- ers they bring Dave and Esmeralda together. Incidentally they work out a little romance of their own. The cast of characters for t'Esmeralda is as follows: Mr. Rogers ..........................,....,...........,..,.. I akc Huber Mrs, Rogers ....... .............. l da Price Esmeralda ........ .,,.... I rene Getsman Dave Hardy ...,.... ...... H arvey Johnson Mr. Estabrook ...,... ..,..... R obert Twiss Jack Desmond ....,,. ........ H allie Knapp Nora Desmond ....,. ......... G ladys Murphy Kate Desmond ....,. .,,., H elane Charneski George Drew .............................,.......... Norris Saindon The McKenzie orchestra gave several good selections before the play began, and also between the acts. The music was enjoyed by everyone. The boys' quartette sang between acts and made their usual hit with the crowd. The High School audi- torium was filled both nights and most of the interested citizens got to see the play. The Senior class is grateful for the hearty co-operation and patronage of the citizens. The cast was very well picked and they put on a good show. Much credit must be given Miss Ruth Burgess for her efforts and hard work. The Class of 1921 is certainly justified in being proud of its Senior play cast.

The reception was given by the Juniors Friday night, September 24, at the gymnasium and was the occasion when the Frosh were initiated into the social intri- cacies of the Chehalis High School. No doubt they were impressed by the beautiful green decorations, the stately grand march, the delightful program, and most of all by the address of welcome. However, their embarrassment had almost disappeared during the games, and was totally gone when the huge cake was cut, and the green ice cream was served. The Freshmen will always remember their reception because they had such a. splendid time. THE GIRLS' FROLI C The Girls' Frolic, September 29th, for all C. H. S. girls, was held at the gymna- sium. The girls had planned to have an out-of-doors mixer, but the rainy weather prevented this, so the lunches were carried to the gymnasium, where the wieners were cooked over the stove. Dancing, sham-ball, and the cafeteria lunch were especial features of the evening. Clever charades were given by each class, and Ruby Ely was awarded the prize for suggesting the best name for the mixer, The Girls' Frolicf, Everyone had such a good time that they planned other mixers to be given as soon as the weather permitted. AUT UIIN DANCE The next social event of the year was an Autumn dance, given by the Juniors at the Hartman 8: Nathan hall, October 23d. The hall was decorated with ferns, and russet and flame colored autumn leaves. The Juniors, the football boys, and the faculty were present, besides several guests. The Juniors are to be congratulated on the fact that there were no wall flowers, for everyone danced or tried to dance. Cider was served throughout the evening. Everyone who attended the dance reported a jolly, good time. TH E SOPHODIORE DANCE The Sophomores gave their first dance at the gymnasium, Saturday evening, October 30th. The decorations were characteristic of HalloWe'en. Everyone came costumed and masked, and a prize was given to the person wearing the most original costume. Late in the evening refreshments of cider and pumpkin pie were served. Soon after the Sophomores went home tired, but very happy, and entirely satisfied with their first dance. T HE SENIOR DANCE The Senior dance, another HalloWe'en party, was given November lst at Hart- man 8: Nathan's hall. Bats, witches, cornstalks, brooms and cats were everywhere in evidence, while black and orange streamers formed a beautiful canopy over the hall. Over fifty couples were present, and all spent a most enjoyable evening. THE JUNIOR, DANCE The second dance given by the Juniors, January Sth, was in honor of the Seniors and Sophomores. About sixty couples were present and all greatly enjoyed the evening. THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL 105 FRESHMEN HARD-TIlNlE PAR-TY January 14th was the date of the Hard-Time party given by the Freshmen. Everyone was dressed in hard-time costumes, and two impersonations were especailly clever. These were Jimmy Cantwell, who portrayed the part of a 'ttrampf' and Philip Overmeyer, who was a bewitching young lady. Throughout the evening, fines were imposed for chewing gum, wearing ear-puffs, and many other things considered ex- travagant by the judge. Delicious refreshments were served at the close of an even- ing of fun, and soon the merry-makers left, declaring the party to be a howling success. FOOTBALL BOYS' BANQUET The annual banquet given by the school to the football letter men was held on Wednesday evening, January 19th, at the High School. The tables, with a color scheme of crimson and gray, were cleverly decorated by the advanced Home Economics class, who also served the delicious banquet. Speeches were made by everyone pres- ent. Superintendent Cook read a report which stated that this year's football team held the highest record of any for the previous eight years. THEY JUNIOR PROM The Junior Prom, one of the most successful social events of the year, was given to the Seniors Friday evening, February 11th, at Hartman St Nathan hall. St. Valen- tine's Day was observed in the red and white decorations, with which the hall was made to look very attractive. A large number of students were present, besides many invited guests. The Prom Committee deserves much praise for the artistic decoration of the hall, and for so ably financing the dance. Everyone who attended the Prom declared that it was the prettiest social affair of the year, and certainly one of the most entertaining. G l RLS' FROLIC The second Girls' Frolic was held in March, at Riverside Park. The girls, carry- ing their lunches, ukeleles, and kodaks, hiked out to the park after school. Upon arriving there, two baseball teams were organized, and several games of ball were played. Those who did not enjoy baseball, took pictures, or hiked down the road, while some of them prepared the bountiful lunch, which was soon served. After the lunch, the girls sat around the huge bonfire, where stories were told and songs were sung, until it was time to start home. Everyone who attended the picnic reported a lively, good time. THE SEXIOR HALL The Vogue dance, given by the Seniors, was the last social event of the year. By the effort of every member of the class, the dance was a great success. lt was given Friday evening, April 15th, at Hartman 85 Nathans hall. The decorations in black and white were very clever. The French maids, dainty programs, and pink and white blossoms, all added to the Vogue idea. The room in which the patrons and patron- esses sat, and where delicious punch was served, was furnished very cozily and artisti- cally. Sixty couples were present, including many guests. Patrons and patronesses for the dance were Mr. and Mrs. Power, Mr. and Mrs. Burnett, Mrs. Getsman, Mr. and Mrs. Bennett, Mr. and Mrs. Forker, Mr. and Mrs. Green, and Mr. Cook. 106 'l'llE CIIIMSGN AND GRAY ANNUAL QQ LITER RYQQ Stolen Honors f'Girls, you didn't do at all well this evening, said Miss Gray, as the girls left the floor after very unsatisfactory practice. f'Really, she continued, I almost feel like putting June on the team. She does much better than most of you did this evening. It was a silent and dejected group of girls who stood looking at each other a minute later in the dressing room. f'What was the matter with us this evening? questioned Betty, who as usual was the first to speak. HI don't know, declared Ruby angrily, 'ibut I didn't care whether I hit the basket or Miss Gray. She lectured me beforehand, and told me if l made any fouls this cven- ing, she would take me off the team. Lots of good it did her. I made neither foul nor basket. 'tXVell, I hope we do better tomorrow night, remarked Mae. It would be ter- rible to lose the last and most important game of the season, and the championship, too. If we win it this time the basketball cup is ours for keeps. Oh, we've just got to win! Got to win! repeated June, the sub, to whom Miss Gray had referred, Why, of course, and you will win. I envy you. I wish I was to play in the most important game Greenwood has ever playedf' You had better hurry and dress, girls, or Miss Gray will be ready to lock the gym before you are ready to go, quietly remarked Emily Standford, the captain of the team, as she came into the room where the girls were gathered. 'fXVhy all the hurry?l' asked Betty. I have to finish that short story for English tonight. You know Miss Wood said she would not sign our cards until it was in, so if I play tomorrow I must finish it this eveningfl explained Emily, as she left the gym. Ulf we were all as good players as Emily, there would be no doubt about us win- ning tomorrowj' Mae said, as they took Emily's advice. June was the last to leave the gym, and as she was leaving she met Miss Gray. They walked towards the dormitory together and the coming game was the subject of conversation. f'You have been doing splendidly the last few weeks, June, complimented Miss Gray. In some ways you are much better than most of the girls on the team. lf any- thing happens that one of the girls can't play, I shall put you in. Thank you, Miss Gray, I should like very much to play in this game, both be- cause it is such a big game and because if I played in the whole game, I would get my letter. It is too bad that you will not get a letter ai'ter practicing as faithfully as you have, and you are playing so well now, too. By this time they had reached the dormitory and June went up to her room. Her room-mate was in and greeted her with the question, f'How was the practice tonight? Not very good, Janeji replied June. I am sure I could do better than any of them except Emily, and Miss Gray says as much, too. I do wish I could play tomor- row night. I want to worse than I ever wanted anything before. f'Don't fret about thatf' advised Jane. HYou are only a Sophomore and you are sure to be on the team two years. VVhat more can you want? f'To be on three, replied June. It was nearer early in the morning than late at night, when Emily carefully folded and put away the finished story. It was late when she awoke in the morning and as soon as she left her room, she took her story and athletic card, and went to the Eng- lish room. Miss XN'ood was not in, so Emily left the story on her desk. She did not I'- TUIC CRIMSON ANI! GRAY ANNUAL IOT have a class in English that day, and it was late in the afternoon when she went back to have her card signed. Will you sign my card, please? asked Emily, handing it to Miss Wood. 'tl have not received your story yet, and I will not sign your card until it is in. Why, I left my story on your desk this morning, said Emily in astonishment. There has been nothing left on my desk today, said Miss Wood a little coolly. But Miss Wood, l did leave it on your desk this morning, maintained Emily. UI have not seen it and will not sign your card until your story is in. This last remark was made in a tone that Emily knew well closed the conversa- tion. She also knew that unless she could re-write the story and have it in in two hours, her card would not be signed, and she could not play in the coming game. To re-write the story was impossible. She doubted if she could do it in twice the time that was left and even if she could she would be totally unfit to play in the game. Her next thought was to go to Miss Gray, but Miss Gray had gone to the city and would not be back until just before the game. Half an hour before the game Emily went to the gym. There she found Miss Gray before she saw any of the girls, and told her that she could not play in the game. You can't play in the game! exclaimed Miss Gray in surprise. Why, Emily, what is the matter? Then Emily told Miss Gray about the story and what had happened. There is no chance whatever for you to play tonight. I know Miss Wood too well to think that I could get her to let you play. But what could have happened to your story? I have been thinking of that for an hour, but I can't imagine what has become of it. 'Alt does seem strange. Come with me and we'll tell the girls. Emily would much rather not have gone into the dressing room. But she went, and smiled a little ruefully as she thought of the coming game. The girls listened in quiet surprise to what Miss Gray said, and when she had finished, Betty began quickly taking off her suit, and the others, noticing what she was doing, followed her example. Why, Betty, what are you doing that for? demanded Miss Gray. Why, there is no use of wearing a basketball suit if there is to be no gameji replied Betty. No game! exclaimed Miss Gray. 'fGirls, Emily spoke in a tone which commanded attention. 'AI thought better of you than this. NVhat good could giving up the game possibly do? lt would make no difference to Miss Wood, and besides, she added, 'ftonight for the first time 1 will get to see you play. l hope you will give me no cause to be ashamed of you. June will take my place and if you work hard, and do good teamwork you cannot be defeated. The girls looked a little ashamed of their hasty decision and Mae said, We didn't tl1ink of that. Of course we will play, and we will do our very best, too. 'fBut we'll get even with that hateful old Miss XVood some day,'l grumbled Ruby. To which Emily wisely said nothing. June, you will play in Emily's placej' said Miss Gray, as she and Emily left the dressing room. When the two were alone again, Miss Gray said, If it was anyone but you, Emily, I would not care so much. June is a good player and will do as well as any of the oth- ers, but you are the very best player, and it is rather serious to have you off. Don't worry about it. I am sure We will win and l'm glad that June can play. She wanted to so badly and has worked so hard, that she deserves to play this evening. By this time the gym was packed, and the two teams came out for a short pre- liminary practice, and then the game was on. It was a close game and an exciting one. Neither side ever got more than two points ahead, and most of the time the score was a tie. The first half ended thirteen to thirteen, and the gymnasium echoed the shouts of the spectators. Soon the game was on again. There were very few points made by either team, but every time a point was made, the building rang with the shouts. The end came much too soon, with a score of nineteen to twenty in favor of Greenwood. Then in- deed did the Greenwood supporters go wild. 108 THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL Emily was the first one to congratulate her team. 'tYes, we won, but we would have beaten them much worse if you had been on the team, was Betty's reply. Oh, that makes no differenceji Emily answered. 'tWe won! But as Emily locked her door and dropped into a chair, she could not help wish- ing she had played in this game. Now .Iune would get her letter, and they had won the right to keep the basketball cup, so she would forget her own disappointment. The next morning before breakfast someone knocked on Emily's door, and when she opened it, Betty walked in. You are an early bird this morning, Betty, said Emily. Oh, am I? That's good, perhaps then I'll catch a worm or rather in this case, you. Well, I'm here. What do you want with me? asked Emily, You left the gym so quickly last night that you didn't hear our plans for today. The Tennis Club is entertaining the basketball team on a hike. We are to leave im- mediately after breakfast, and are going to the mountain in a. truck. Then we will climb as far as We wish, each taking her own lunch. We are all to meet at the picnic grounds at the entrance gate, and have a picnic lunch before coming home. It was planned after the game in a hurry, and as everyone would be busy this morning, I was appointed to notify you. Of course you will go? It was lovely of the girls to plan the hike. I am sorry I can't go. I will have to re-write my story todayf' Have to miss this, too? 011, come, let the story go. You just must go today, pleaded Betty. But Emily was determined to re-write the story. It was finally decided, how- ever, that she would come up to the picnic grounds as soon as her story was finished, and have lunch in the evening with them. It was early in the afternoon when the story was done and Emily took it to Miss NVood. She then put on a hiking suit, got into her roadster, and started for the mountain. She had not been at the picnic grounds long when the first ones began to arrive, among whom was Betty. Well, you did come. I was afraid you wouldn't, cried the latter, when she caught sight of Emily. t'Oh, yes, I promised I would come. t'To be sure, so I might have known you would. We have had the best time ever. I wish you could have been with us. Betty sat down on the log beside Emily and began to give an account of the happenings of the day. It was not long before all were there, and lunch was being prepared. Frequent hikes of this kind, however, had trained the girls in getting meals in the open, and in an incredibly short time lunch was ready. After their long hike and climb, the hungry girls were quite ready for the good things set before them. Conversation lagged while they did full justice to the boun- tiful lunch. When the nibbling stage was reached, conversation was resumed, and the game became the topic of discussion. Emily was then called on for a speech. First she thanked the girls of the club for the enjoyable time given the basketball team. Then she praised the team for the splendid work they had done, especially she congratulated June. All eyes turned toward June. W'hy, where are you, June? asked Emily, as she failed to find her. 'tWhere has June gone? Who saw her last? Girls,H said Emily, in a voice that immediately restored order to the group. 'tHas anyone seen June since we have been here? Did she come down from the mountain?,' No one remembered seeing her. t'Miss Gray, continued Emily, count us and see if anyone else is missing. Miss Gray counted. No one else was missing. Now, who saw June last? asked Emily. June was with us, spoke up Betty, until we were about half-way up. We were ahead of all the rest, and June was tired. She said she would rest and wait for the next ones to come, and for us to go onf' No one had seen .Iune after that. After questioning more closely as to the place THE URIINISON AND GRAY ANNUAL 109 June had left them and the time they and the next party had passed the place, Emily, who knew every path on the mountain, decided that June had grown tired of waiting and had started back to meet the next party. Just a short distance below the place where June had been left, the trail branched. June had evidently taken the upper trail just about the time the next party of girls came up the lower trail. The trail Emily believed June to have taken, led to the main road two miles farther up. But if .June had reached the main road, Emily knew she would have found her way to the picnic grounds long ago. The trail was not hard to follow, but it was steep and rocky near the bottom, and a person who knew no more about climbing than June, would be lucky indeed to get down without falling. Emily's conclusion was that June was on that trail, perhaps not far from the road, too badly hurt to climb down by herself. Emily took Miss Gray aside and told her her conclusion, and also that she thought it would be best to send the girls back to the college, and have them send out a small searching party from the city. In the meantime she and Miss Gray would climb the trail in search of June. VVhen the men arrived at the picnic grounds they should wait there for Miss Gray and herself. Miss Gray immediately carried out these plans. She and Emily drove up the road to the foot of the trail in Emi1y's roadster, as soon as the girls had left. When they reached the foot of the trail, Emily took a first-aid kit and a flashlight from her car, and then they started to climb. They climbed in silence for about an hour, each one looking for some indication that June had been on the trail. It was now almost dark enough to use the flash- light, and Emily was a little discouraged. As they stopped to rest a minute, Emily thought she heard a sound. She listened. Yes, there it was again, June? she called. There was no reply. .Iune? again called Emily. Here I am, Emily, came the reply, a short distance from where Miss Gray and Emily were resting. Miss Gray and Emily hurried to the spot. There was June sitting on a log. Oh, I am glad you came,,' sobbed June. 'tAre you hurt badly, June? Miss Gray inquired. Not very, answered June, it is my ankle. It was soon decided that Miss Gray should stay with June. While Emily went back for the men who would take June to the College. These plans were carried out, and before many hours June was in her own room, and a doctor was bandaging the sprained ankle. A week later Emily went to June's room to see her, as she had done every after- 11oon since she was hurt. How are you this afternoon, June? she asked cheerily. Very well, thank you, Emily, replied June. You don't seem quite as we1l,'y replied the other, looking at her closely. June grew a little red. My ankle is getting along exceptionally well, the doctor says. Sit down here, Emily, pointing to a chair near her, HI have something to tell you. Something to tell me? Yes, I took your story. You took my story! 'tYes, I went into the English room right after you came out. I took it so I would get to play in the game. l'm very sorry, Emilyf' she added, as she turned her head to hide the tears. Emily's first shock of surprise and indignation, was followed by the thought that now she could clear herself in the eyes of her teachers and classmates. 'tOh, Emily! sobbed June, 'ican you ever forgive me? Emily hesitated, but her first selfish impulse gave way to a more generous one, and she replied, I'1l forgive you on one condition, June. What's that? asked June in a tremulous voice. That you tell no one about this. I am glad you got to play in the game, and as no real harm has been done, we'll just forget about it. -Dorothy Sonnemann. l10 THE CRIIVISON AND GRAY ANNUAL The Fear One time, not long ago, I attended a house party, where things were going slowly. The host had exhausted all his means of entertainment for the guests, so he called upon for suggestions. Several had been submitted, when one young fellow suggested that a prize be given for the best story told. This was taken, so each person told his story in turn. l shall record to you the prize winner just as it was told to us. 'tFor several generations, all the people of my family have been bright and intelli- gent, but have lived in eternal fear of some impending disaster, such as death. A cloud of gloom seemed to hover over them all the time. Another queer thing about them was, that their queer tastes always led them to live in large, dark houses, palatial in every detail, but with an uncanny atmosphere about them. They always seemed to me to be ideal haunts for ghosts, evil spirits and other supernatural and horrible visitors. I am not, for some reason, afflicted as my parents were, but I have a pretty young cousin who is sadly wracked by this fear. She and I are the last of this accursed fam- ily, so we live in a house inherited from lily parents, who have been dead for some time. The place was built by my great-grandfather, and is the worst of the kind I described a moment ago. This cousin of whom I spoke, had the most weird room in the house, but neither the doctors nor l could persuade her from spending most of her time there. It is filled with grotesque statutes, weird drapings and pictures, and has a terrible power of filling a person with fear and trembling, yet it has an attraction for her. One night I was exceptionally worried about her for some reason, so I went up to her room and listened through the key-hole. She was sobbing and sighing about the curse that was upon her. I went inside and comforted her somewhat, and then per- suaded her to come downstairs to my den, which I had re-fitted in cheerful furnish- ings. While she was there she seemed more cheerful, but would cringe and turn pale at every unexpected sound or motion. About 9:30 she expressed a desire to retire, as she was quite fatigued. I saw her to her room and then went to my own. A storm was brewing outside, and the wind was moaning under the eaves, but I paid no attention and went to bed. About 12 o'clock I was awakened by the shrieking and howling of the newly-risen storm. I felt exceptionally nervous and presently heard my cousin's footsteps as she paced restlessly up and down her room. I had a premonition, that seemed to come from the shrieking wind, which told me that something terrible was going to happen. I arose hurriedly, slipped into my robe and slippers, and hastened to close the window, where the wind was tossing the cur- tains with a lifelikeness that was uncanny. Their twisting and tossing in the dark- ness, with the howling of the storm, strangely reminded me of death and the unseen world. I tried to dispense with this thought, but it kept recurring to my mind. As I had not yet struck a light, I groped my way to the stand by my bed where the candle-holder and matches were kept. I reached out in the darkness for them, but in place of them I found myself grasping a cold, clammy hand. At the same moment a blood-curdling scream arose from my cousin's bed chamber, and the hand slowly withdrew itself from my grasp. Fear expresses itself in many ways in different people. Some become as if para- lyzed, others faint, but in me, all the inherited fear that had been lying dormant for years, awoke. I screamed frightfully, flinging my arms about in all directions to fight off a terrible inexplainable oppression which was slowly overpowering me. I ran wildly about in the darkness. Sometimes I fell over chairs. It seemed always as if something was trying to hold me down. l could feel myriads of cold, clammy hands reaching for me. The horror of it all, those dismembered hands, the twisting drapes, that scream and my own crazed mind culminated in a fear that no words can express. My hair turned gray on that night, as it is now. THIC CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL 111 As l half staggered and half ran about in the dark room, a ghoulish, cackling laughter split the air, and I saw rise fro111 the floor a shape ghastly and dark. I stood paralyzed as it drew nearer and nearer. .lts demoniac eyes gleamed with a horrible delight. Then, silent as death, its terrible long, bony fingers reached out for my throat. This was too much for my shattered nerves. Struggling desperately, l awoke to find my pet collie jumping up and down upon my bed, trying to awaken me to enjoy the beautiful summer morning. --Norman Brunswig. Education De Luxe On the l2th day of April in the year 2021, Reginald Aristophones Jones awoke at his accustomed hour of nine fifty-eight, in order to attend school, which began at ten o'c-lock. Reginald, after having dressed, and swallowing four tablets of predigested breakfast equal to four hundred calories, jumped into his twenty-cylinder aeroplane and flew to school, six miles distant, arriving there at one second before ten. At the door of the school Reginald gave his hat and coat to the door-man and stepped into a small electric car, chauffeured by a small negro boy, and was taken to his class in telepathy. In this class, seated in morris chairs, the students learned the art of talking to the people of other planets. Reginald had already advanced far enough to converse with the girls on Mars. After five minutes of this brain-racking study, refreshments of ice cream and cake were served by white-aproned maids, while a hidden orchestra played the latest song hits. At the end of this fifteen-minute period, Reginald's chauffeur came for him and took him to his next class of Air Walking. This subject was more recent than the others, only having been introduced the previous year. The students were making rapid progress and could now walk around the block with comparatively few falls. The only refreshment that could be served with a subject of so great muscular strain, according to the great scientist, Prof. Phileas R Perkins. was pink lemonade, which Reginald always detested. The other studies making up Reginalds course, were Solar Science and Moonanese. In Solar Science he had just discovered the reason that tennis balls manufactured 011 the earth for use on the moon, must weigh ten pounds while still on the earth. Moonanese was the language spoken by the inhabitants of the moon. lt was a mixture of English, French, Japanese and Norwegian, gathered from the dictations which arrived in 1924 by radium-propelled torpedoes. At eleven o'clock, after suppressing a weary yawn and commenting on what a bore school was, Reginald departed to spend the day on the moon. -Jacob Huber. EDITORS NOTE The Annual Staff and the Student Body of the Chehalis High School are very grateful to the business men and the citizens of Chehalis for the support they have given us. We, the students, realize that the Annual, athletics, and all un- dertakings of the High School would be unsuccessful without the 1'ull support of the city. This edition is not perfect and probably could be bettered in many ways, but we believe that we have done our best under the circumstances. So we ask you, who are reading this book, to be lenient with us in regard to errors, lVe are especially grateful to Mr. C. Ellington, of the Bee-Nugget, and his staff, for the advice and carel'ul work they gave us. 2 THE CRIMSON AND GRAY ANNUAL 'hl Sept. Sept. Sept Sept Sept Sept. Sept Sept Sept Oct. Oct. Oct. Oct. Oct.

Mr. Bennett looked up at him for a few seconds and marked the permit, EXCUSED. HARD TO TELL A doctor attending an old lady from Scotland who had caught a severe cold, asked: 'tDid your teeth chatter when you felt the cold coming on?
