Secretary-Treasurer CAROLYN DILLEHAY, Faculty Advisor FOUR YEARS IN REVIEW Though the class of ’38 has gradually decreased from 65 since its entrance into high school, 40 remain in the graduating class. The class of ’38 has been outstanding in extra-curricular activities if not in scholastic ability. Members of the class have participated in the following club: Sokol, B” Club, Bcx.k Club, Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs, F. H. A., Hi-Y, Free Lancers, National Honor Society and Ifka. Honor in the field of athletics go to Charles Brown, Eugene Hull and Edgar Spears. The girls of the senior class have also shown their athletic ability by winning the intramural basketball and volleyball championships two consecutive years, namely—the junior and senior years. Members of the class of '38 have participated in scholarship contests at Athens and have as a rule placed fairly high. In 1935 Frank Woodward won first place in general science. In the commercial contest of '37, places were won by Bonnie Jean Rambo, Ben Gilliotte, Marion Gorby and Jean Hull. Our classmates have not lacked in dramatic ability. A remarkable performance was given in the junior year entitled Life Begins at Sixteen.’’ Characters most to be remembered in the play are Frank Woodward, Jean Hull, Edward Cryder, Eleanor Cusick, Ellis Johnson, and Mary Evelyn Moulton. This year an amusing farce was presented by the class entitled Her Incubator Husband.’’ The leading parts in operettas have been taken by Evelyn McGuire, Eugene Hull, Frank Woodward and Ellis Johnson ever since they entered high school. Our short high school career is now behind us, but we hope to continue to live up to our motto, “Despize not small things; they lead to great ones,” and hold high the standards of C. H.

NEW CORRIDOR MAKES JUNIOR HIGH PART OF C. H. S. As a result of the reality of the long anticipated corridor, connecting the high school and junior high the seventh and eighth grade students now feel themselves more a part of C. H. S. Although the members of the seventh and eighth grades are the youngest of C. H. S. they are prominent in many outside activities. Katherine Downey and Mack Watts represent the eighth grade in Student Council. Norma Bradshaw and Norma Luster represent the seventh. Junior High School is well represented in the Crooks-ville High School Band and the Orchestra, as well. Their intramural sport teams have brought many decided victories to Junior High School. May these students be just as successful as students in Senior high school as they were in Junior high. “THE LIFE OF JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY” The students of the Junior High School gave a very interesting program on the life of James Whitcomb Riley. They portrayed scenes during his life and recited many of his best poems. Those taking part were: Mack Watts, Jean Brown, Jay Sowers, Jean and Jane Peart, Doris Jane Tedrow, Cathryn Downey, Jean Swingle, George Allton, Cathryn Dillehay, Ruth McMillan, Albert Weese and Mary Adkins. THE CLASS OF ’40 Although the Sophomores arc not scholastically one of the outstanding classes of Crooksville High, they are well represented in many of the organizations of the school. Lois Hull, Jean Holcomb, Paul McLean and John Price are their representatives in Student Council. They are also represented in Sokol, Future Homemakers, orchestra, hand, girls' glee club, and the newly organized Junior Girl Reserves. They had members in both intramural and varsity athletics. Gilbert Barker was elected captain of the football team. Lois Hull and Betty Atcr will help lead the cheering section next year. The class members trust that many more representatives of the class of '40 will help make things hum at C. H. S. GILBERT BARKER.

They are represented in Student Council by Betty Stoneburner, Margene Horne, Robert Cope and William Lcmert. The Freshmen girls are active members of the newly organized Junior Girl Reserves. They also have members in the band, orchestra, glee clubs and were really quite successful in intramural sports.

SEEING THE SCHOOL THROUGH THE JUNIORS Characters: Miss High School J eios Reporter —Jane Watts Miss High School—There's that man again—he's been on my trail for the last half-hour. Oh dear me—he’s coming at me—there's no ducking him this time. Reporter—Ah! Miss High School, are you not? You see, 1 am a reporter! Surely you could not deny the public a bit of inside information on your so-called glamorous school life. Miss High School—Definitely not! I am a member of the Junior Class. You see, I am very proud to be a member of this particular class in the Crooksville High School. There isn t a dull moment in a day-load. And of all the famous people! Everyone has heard of our second Jeanette MacDonald in Marguerite Singer, who starred in the greatest smash-hit of the season, Purple Towers. Right beside her was Lois Bonifant, who weekly holds her audience spellbound as her rippling fingers fly over the piano keys. And talking about girls there is Bettie Jo Fitzer—why Cleopatra enjoyed no greater fame than she. Reporter—Well, this seems to be one time when girls are tops! Miss High School-Oh! Don't misunderstand me—-Jack Hull discovers something every day which Einstein doesn't know. Our high school sport teams were practically made of Junior fellows—Let me see there is Fred Hill, Paul Weese, Jack Hull, Lyle Talbot, Bill Curl, Robert Roush, Bill Sowers, Frank McAllister, Gerald Fisher, Eugene Luster and Owen Tharp! Reporter—Tell me, Miss High School, do the Juniors take part in many other extra-curricular activities besides athletics? Miss High School—Certainly! Every member of our class belongs to one or more of cither the Sokol, Ifka, Hi-Y, Free Lancers, Glee Club, or Future Homemakers Clubs. Our class is represented in the school's Student Council by Jean Tatman, Helen Fleming, Lyle Talbot, and Rodney Yoder. And do they go about it with vim and vigor! You should see them hunting, making, and filling “dates” for the club parties. Reporter—You said previously that there wasn't a dull moment in a day-load —certainly there are a few blue notes in a school-life. Miss High School—Oh, Mr. Editor—You don't know the Juniors! The “wit of Double Dumb Fisher, Dopey Tharp, Red Roush, Tucker’ Talbot, Percy Dicken, Jack Hull, and Bill Curl make Jack Benny sound stale. But really, 1 must be going, 111 be late to French again. Reporter—Certainly sounds like some class! But won't you please tell the public just a little more before you go, Miss High School? Miss High School—I might add that after meekly entering, bravely attacking ,and victoriously completing (we hope) such brain teasers” as chemistry, geometry, commercial law, etc., the Juniors feel themselves ready, willing and able to assume the honorable title The Crooksville High Seniors of 1939.” We reluctantly leave our old Junior room and the faithful smiles ot Miss Christine Galloway, our advisor, to the Juniors of next year. CHARLES BROWN and EUGENE “Bulldog LUSTER were two of this year's out' standing athletes. Charles was awarded the Senior Grand Award for the Senior boy who has succeeded in making the most points under the new point system. Bulldog brought honor to both himself and Crooksville High School when he was elected as a member of the first squad of the All Big Six Football Team. To these boys we extend our congratulations. The Athletics i VICTORY OVER NEW LEX CLIMAXES FOOTBALL SEASON With a touchdown in the third quarter and an ironclad defense for the rest of the game Crooksville High's fighting 1937 football team turned back the championship bound New Lex squad in the annual Armistice Day classic and turned an otherwise drab season into a highly successful one. This, the season's finale was played before the largest crowd in the history of C. H. S. football. The new athletic field was used. The season opened at Mark Park where the superior manpower of Lash High of Zanesville turned back every thrust of a willing but light Ceramic team and pushed over five touchdowns and three conversions for a score of 33-0. A week later an unseasonably warm afternoon turned the New Concord game into a sluggish duel in midfield that ended in a scoreless tie. The Roseville game played late in the season was, next to the New Lex game, the most tasty victory to the hungry fans. Roseville had, in 1936 defeated Crooksville for the first time in the history of football between the two schools. This year a Big Red team of superior size and ability downed Roseville despite the splendid showing made by Lacey who was the big gun of the Roseville offense. A 38 to 7 drubbing at the hands of the Glouster Tomcats, the League leaders, plus a surprise upset of the same Tomcats a week later by the New Lex team set the stage for the large crowd and the excitement of the final game of the season. If New Lex could win or hold the Ceramics to a tie they were undisputed champions of the Big Six. If the underdog Ceramics could win. New Lex would fade from the championship picture because of a nearly season tie. Nov. II, 1918 meant peace but Nov. 11, 1937 was war in the oldest of Perry County rivalaries. Crooks-ville vs. New Lex. It was perfect football weather. All business was suspended. A record crowd came down from the County-seat to see their team win the title. Over 1700 paid admissions and it was estimated that well over half of these were New Lex fans. New Lex brought along their new public address system and a broadcasting station was set up on the roof of the Junior High Building. The Ceramics had never all been clicking at anyone time all season but in this game they all played heads-up ball. The first half was a see-saw with New Lex threatening several times and the Ceramics fighting desperately. About midway of the third quarter a penalty put C. H. S. in scoring position and Luster, the Ceramic sparkplug, made the 6 points. Brown converted for the 7th. From then on to the final gun the Red and Black hung on to their 7-point lead despite the best Wolfe and Co. could offer. SEASON LINEUP—REGULARS Quarter-back Eugene (Bulldog) Luster, class of '39 was probably the outstanding star of the season. He was the only Ceramic to make the “All-Big Six First Team. He played in every quarter during the season; as the quarter-back called all signals; did most of the running and passing. Full-back Charles Brown, class of 38, also was in every quarter; was a dependable kicker and a hard tackier. Half-back Frank McAllister, class of '39, was new to the squad this year, transfering here from Flushing, N. Y. He developed rapidly but was injured in the Roseville game and attended the “Big game on crutches. Half-back Rodney Yoder, class of '39, played in every quarter, had the blocking assignment on many plays. Right-end Paul Weese, class of '39, showed best in the New Lex and Roseville games. Will be missed next year as he is ineligible after this season. Right-tackle Captain Gilbert (Dubbic) Barker, class of '39, another iron man that played in every quarter, made the “All Big Six second team, an excellent player and a real leader of the team. THE SQUAD 1st ROW—Bush, R. Yoder, Hill, Sowers, Barker, Luster, Bau man, Roush, Hannum. 2nd ROW—Weese, Brown, Wilson, Locke, Denny, Butts, Eveland, McAllister, Coach Papritan. 3rd ROW—S m i t h, Hawk, Tharpe, Miller, Dillehay, Fisher, Price, I. Yoder. Right'guard Raymond Bush, class of '39, made second team on the “All Big Six. Played in every quarter. Center Fred Hill, class of '39, a consistant, ac curate passer. Left'guard Robert Bauman, class of '41, an ag' gressive blocker who was used to fill up the space when Bush was out to run interference. Lcft'tacklc Gerald Fisher, class of '39, backed up the line on defense. An aggressive player. Left'cnd Paddy Hannum, class of '41, probably the best freshman player in the League, charged fast, tackled low and sure, played every quarter. SUBSTITUTES Half'back Bill Sowers, class of '39, took Me Ah lister's place and made good in the “Big game. Tackle Robert (Red) Roush, class of '39, got a late start because of late enrollment. A sure starter next year. Tackle Robert Eveland, class of '40, saw consid' crablc service. Tackle Kendell Smith, class of '40. Guard Jim Miller, class of '40. Guard Robert Locke, class of '41. Half-back Edward (Monk) Cryder, class of '38, small but fast. Dropped out before end of season.

CERAMIC BASKET BALL TEAM WINS 8, LOSES 8, TIES 1 Coach Walter's 1937-38 Ceramic basketball team was a winning combination in December but was below par in February. The season's summary shows 8 won, 8 lost and 1 tic for a flat 500 per cent. The standing in the Big Six was only 300 per cent. Hull, Brown, Wecse, Hill, Barker and Luster were the regulars for the season. The outstanding games of the year were probably the two encounters with New Lexington and the tic game with the team from the Meredith Business College. In the first New Lex game played there on January 14th, the Ceramics held a lead through the first half and into the third quarter while the County Scat rooters sat stunned. Somewhere early in the third quarter the C. H. S. attack began to falter and the boys turned up in the wrong defensive positions. The result was a route ending 40 to 21 in favor of New Lex. In the second game of the New Lex scries a dogged Crooksville team held the Black and Gold to a hard won lead of 41 to 33. This game was played before the largest crowd seen in the Ceramic Gym since 1931. A Crooksville win would have thrown New Lex into a tie with M. and M. for first place. The tie game with Meredith was played early in the season on the Crooksville floor. The gun ending the regular playing period found the teams tied up and three overtime periods saw both teams scoring equally. The referee dusted off a seldom used rule and declared the game a tie of 3 5-35. A second game played on February 25 saw the Ceramics winning 33 to 27 with the best passing attack that they showed all season. THE BOYS Charles (BB) Brown and Eugene (Skinner) Hull, seniors, were regular forwards. Both were high scorers on occasion but tended to not both click on the same evenings. When Skinner happened to be “hot his one handed, slop shots were hard to beat. Fred Hill, Junior, center or guard, a steady, powerful player. Eugene (Bulldog) Luster, junior. The Captain and best all-around player this season. He was equally strong at guard or on the offense. He played guard for the Ceramics and made the same position on the “All Big Six” Team. Gilbert (Dubbie) Barker, junior, both guard and center, a fine defense man. Paul Wcese, junior, guard or center. Coach Walter used him as a utility man. He was always called for when the team seemed rattled. Jack Hull and Bill Curl, juniors, forwards, sure starters for next year's varsity. Rodney Yoder, junior, reserve and first team substitute. THE RESERVES The Ceramic Reserve team won all of their games but three, to ring up a record as the best Second team that Crooksville High has had in recent years. Losses were to New Lex. M. and M., and Gloustcr, but these three teams were all defeated in return games. Bill Curl was probably the outstanding reserve. Others were Robert Bauman, John Price, Eddie Channels, Gene Hill, Bob Cope, Bob Locke and Rodney Yoder. Jack Hull was rushed into reserve games several times to pull the fat out of the fire when Coach Walter felt that he could be spared from his place as first string varsity sub.

At the time this annual was printed there was no information available as to the number of games won or lost but it was thought by the practice games that Crooksville would have a fair team. James C. Papritan was coaching the squad of 20 players and several good prospects had been found. This was Crooksville s third year for baseball. In former years the teams did not accomplish a whole lot. With the improved field and new suits it was hoped the boys would really put across some home runs. Paul McLean, veteran pitcher, was expected to be the nucleus of the team with his skillful pitching; he was elected captain for the year. Charles Brown, first baseman, was slated to be a regular this year. This was his second year for baseball. Rodney Yoder, after two years of catching, has improved to the extent of being on the varsity. Eugene Luster, fielder, has shown his batting and fielding ability in former years and there is little doubt but what he will continue. Kenneth Young, Luster's running mate in the fielder position, has played every year and is a steady ball player. Jack Hull, star shortstop, has shown improvement over former years. Frank McAllister, third base. Though this is Frank's first year out for baseball he has made the first team. Robert Roush, Bill Curl, Lyle Talbot, Kendall Smith, Wayne Love, Bob Eveland, though somewhat inexperienced, are giving some of the veterans a hard fight for certain positions. THIS AND THAT Next year’s cheer leaders: Boni-fant, L. Hull, VanAtta, Dillehay, and Ater. Jean and Norma who have led the boys on to many a victory. Our Four Star Feature: Sowers, Luster, Brown and Yoder; some attraction, eh? The Team. McLean and Yoder, Backbone of the Ceramic nine. Senior girls, intramural basketball champs. Feast your eyes, New Lex bowed to this eleven. Champion foul shooters, Curtis Watts and Ruth Anderson. The Rams, Champion intramural basketballers. Girls’ Champion intramural volleyball team. Ceramic baseball team and substitutes. No instruction needed here. SENIOR GIRLS BASKET BALL “CHAMPS” The girls of the class of 1938 won the intramural basketball championship of C. H. S. with five straight wins. The girls of the classes of '39, '40, '41, as well as the Junior High lassies, fell before the husky Senior girls. In addition, the Seniors twice defeated the New Lex High class champions, in a special friendship series between the two schools. The team was composed of Thelma Chaffin, captain; Burnett Rambo, manager; Eleanor Cusick, Betty Watts, DeVerne Young, Maxene Kemerer, Mary E. Lawrence, Faye Channel, Norma Aichele, and Luella Talbot. FINAL STANDING Won Lost Pet. Seniors 1 0 1000 Sophomores 3 2 .600 Juniors 2 3 .400 Freshmen 2 3 .400 Jr High 1 4 .200 Cosmos 0 .000 “RAMS” END BASKETBALL SEASON WITH 1000% Throughout the entire intramural basketball season the Rams team was outstanding. winning every game. The Rams were captained by Lloyd Kenny and the following players made up the team; Gerald Fisher, Wallace German, Keith Watts, Ronald Butts, and Donald Brown. The intramural boys’ basketball teams this year were chosen by the selection of captains from the school as a whole, who in turn selected their team mates. Six captains and teams were chosen and the play-offs began. The final standing of the six teams was in the following order; Rams, Hawkeyes, Razorblades, Bluestreaks, Huskies, and Bucks. JUNIOR BOYS WIN VOLLEY BALL TITLE The junior class boy's volley ball team won four games this year, thus taking the championship of the intramural league. The team was captained by Eugene Luster and included Jack Hull, Gilbert Barker, Robert Roush, Fred Hill, Rodney Yoder, Raymond Bush, Gerald Fisher, Bill Curl, Lyle Talbot, and Wayne Love. The teams ended up in the following order: Juniors, Seniors, Freshmen, Sophomores, Junior High. “CYCLONES” WIN GIRLS’ VOLLEY BALL CHAMPIONSHIP This year a new idea was adopted for volley ball. Instead of choosing the girls’ teams as classes, six teams were chosen from the school as a whole, thus preventing extreme inferiority of any team. This method did not enable any one class to carry the championship. The names of the teams and the number of games won and lost are as follows: Team Won Lost Pet. Cyclones 5 0 1000 Red Cats 3 2 .600 Blue Terrors 3 2 .600 Greased Lightning 2 3 .400 Lonesome Gals 2 3 .400 Girls that got it 0 5 .000 The members of the winning team were Bonibelle Allard, captain; Margaret Allen, manager; Mary Wilson, Betty Hoover, Rosalie McMillan, Clara Hayman, Maxine Kemerer, Mona Young, Marguerite Gossman. C. H. S. BOOK CLUB IN ITS SECOND YEAR The Book Club was organized the second semester of this year with Mr. Fell as the advisor. The students of the English Literature class were eligible for membership. Each member bought a book and exchanged with the other members. The purpose of the club was to instill in the members an appreciation of a better class of literature. The officers were: Betty Watts, President. Eleanor Cusick, Vice President.

Those belonging to this club were: Evelyn McGuire, Jean Hull, Eleanor Cusick, Betty Levering, Betty Watts, Betty Mears, Maxine Kemerer, Marian Mercer, Marcella Fleming, Frank Woodward, Eugene Hull, Dick Downey, Jack Gross, Denver May, and Albert Talbot. STAGE SHOWS FEATURED AT ELEMENTARY CARNIVAL The main attractions of the elementary school carnival, held March 18, 1938 at the high school, were two stage shows by the East, North, and South school students. Their shows included a negro Tom Thumb Wedding, featuring sixty black-faced youngsters; and a charm school in which Professor Charles Horne gave a modern version of Jack and the Beanstalk. Another feature was a motion picture show. An educational picture Beneath Our Feet,” which was a study of insects, and a comedy That's My Meat were enjoyed by large crowds. In addition to these, bingo, the fish pond and novelty booth, refreshments, candy and ice cream attracted large crowds. The entire carnival was under the supervision of Mr. Harry Gannon, Principal of the south schools. Miss Arlene Williams directed the stage shows. She was assisted by Miss Bernice Sanborn and Miss Eleanor Sinsabaugh. Garmon Conaway operated the motion picture machine. This carnival proved to be one of the biggest and most successful entertainments of the year. “PURPLE TOWERS” PRESENTED BY GLEE CLUBS A highly successful operetta, “PURPLE TOWERS, was presented December 16, 1938 by the Glee Club under the direction of Miss Mary Watkins. The Glee Club presented one school assembly this year and participated in many others. Music at Baccalaureate and Commencement was furnished by this group. Several of the boys belonging to the Glee Club took part in the minstrel, HAPPY DAZE, which was presented at the high school on March 11, 1938. The class of '38 congratulates both Miss Watkins and the Glee Clubs for their splendid work this year. The Activities BUCKEYE BOYS STATE AWARD AMERICAN LEGION AWARD Robert Roush, Dale Dickens and Jack Hull were selected by the Crooksville Student G un-cil and approved by a committee of the faculty to attend the 1938 session of the Buckeye Boys State held at Columbus, Ohio, from June 18 to the 28 inclusive. The expenses of these boys were paid by the American Legion, the Chamber of Commerce and the student council. The purpose of the Buckeye Boys State is to teach the hoys the way the government is operated and to give them experience in these lines. Frank Woodward attended last year's sessions. All three of these boys have been very active in their school work. Robert Roush worked very hard this year and was a member of the football and baseball teams. Jack Hull played basketball and baseball and is the prospective valedictorian of the class of 1939. Dale Dickens has been very active in the school orchestra and band, is president of the junior class. Each year the American Legion of Crooks-ville presents the outstanding boy and girl of the eighth grade an award for desirable qualities possessed by these students. A committee of five Junior High School teachers name the six candidates, three girls and three boys of whom two are selected in the final judging for the award. The qualifications for the two awards vary slightly. Both boys and girls must show the characteristics of courage, scholarship, and service to their fellow classmates and to their school. The difference is that the boys must have honor and leadership; the girls, character and companionship. The girls named this year were; Katherine Downey, Jean Swingle and Jean Brown, and the boys: Mack Watts, Jay Sowers and Douglas Talbot. These six will be carefully observed by the committee and the final elimination will probably occur in May. The winners last year were June Dillehay and Robert Cope and in 1936 the awards went to Betty Ater and Curtis Watts. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY AWARDS The class of 1938 has been successful in placing seven students in the National Honor Society this year. They are: Frank Woodward, Jean Hull, Eleanor Cusick, Evelyn McGuire, Betty Watts, Eugene Hull and Betty Mears. The Crooksville High School chapter of the National Honor Society was organized in 1932. This society is a National organization, and students excelling in scholarship, leadership, character, and service arc selected for membership. A special committee composed of members of the faculty selects these students, who are initiated into the society at a special assembly held in the high school auditorium. At this assembly, these honored students are presented with the National Honor Society pin, identification card, and certificate of membership.

ORCHESTRA COMPLETES SUCCESSFUL YEAR With 23 members under the direction of Miss Mary Watkins, the orchestra of Crooksville High School has completed another successful year. This is Miss Watkins' second year here and she has done much to bring out the musical talents of our students. The orchestra has played at most of the high school assemblies and also at the various entertainments given at the sch x l throughout the year. The Junior orchestra started last year now has twenty members and will be well able to i.‘ the places left vacant by the graduating classes for several years. Ten of its present members are from East school. C. H. S. BAND ENJOYS ITS MOST SUCCESSFUL YEAR For the first time in the musical history of Crooksville High School, this year our band played and marched at the home football games. They also put in their appearance at several of the home basketball games, and besides the usual school activities, played in the Perry County “Buy American parade which was sponsored by the unions of Perry County last fall. The full band participated in the parade that was a part of the Sesqui-Centennial Celebration in Zanesville April 14, 1938. The Red and Black was the second musical organization in the line of march. They made a fine appearance in their white slacks, shirts, and red and black capes and caps. The chairman of the celebration committee in Zanesville sent a complimentary letter to Mr. Zollinger stating that the Crooksville Band added decidedly to the parade. Following the parade down Wayne Avenue and Main Street to Ridge Avenue the Lash High Band, the Crooksville Band and the M. and M. Band formed together on the Court House plaza and presented a massed band concert. Miss Watkins has been very successful in her direction of these 22 members and has given us a band of which we are duly proud.

HISTORY “B” CLUB JEAN HULL, President BEN CILLIOTTE, Vice President MARCELLA FLEMING, Secretary-Treasurer The outstanding work of the History “B Club this year was the purchasing of the History Source Books. These books were purchased with the money obtained from several candy sales. The club is one of the extra activities of the high school. The meetings are held monthly at the homes of different members or at the high school building. The members invite speakers who talk on different subjects and reports are given by the members. The History “B Club of Crooksville High School was organized by Miss Dillehay in 1930. The membership consists of those persons aver-aging a B or above in their six weeks grade of American History. The club’s purpose is to develop a greater interest in history and to stimulate a desire for more extensive work. FREE LANCERS GUY BUTLER, President DON SEMON, Vice President ALBERT TALBOT, Secretary and Treasurer GERALD FISHER, Sergeant-at-Arms The Free Lancers Club was organized at the beginning of the school year by boys of the junior and senior class with Mr. Dugan as the faculty advisor.

The Free Lancers stand primarily for the development of young manhood—mentally, morally and physically. SCOUT TROOP 33 Last year when the school year ended the Scout Troop sponsored by the Student Council consisted of eighteen members.

Forty per cent of the proceeds went to the fund for purchasing the motion picture machine, and the remaining sixty per cent to the Piney Wood Institution, which is a school for Negro students who are unable to finance their education. With the historic ability of their race used to its best advantage, combined with unfailing musical excellence in the presentation of life among the slaves of the South before and after the Civil War, the cast of five men and two women merited the praise it received.
