16 THE PIONEER Class Will E, the Class of 1912, in full possession of a sound mind and memory, about to depart this sphere, do declare this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking any former wills made by us at any time. To Philena Young, the honored headlight of the Junior Class, we do bequeath a snapshot of the Orange County Golf Links to paste in her memory book, together with a book of Improved Parlimentary Rules which she may use in her obedient (?) class. To Charles Lynch, her side-partner, we take great pleasure in leaving a prescription, by the use of which he can prepare an antidote for his bashfulness. We are in hopes that this prescription will remedy his symptoms and thereby make many girls happy. To Maude Schoonmaker, the greatest giggler of the class, the hope that her howls (Howell) will not be so bothersome next year. To Kenneth Sinsabaugh, the busiest Treasurer known, a wheelbarrow to assist him in transporting the class funds to the bank. Also a pair of magnifying glasses to enable him to keep track of his speedometer. To Clara Sutherland we leave the charge of the smallest member of her class and the advice that next year she spend less time in talking to her friends across the aisle. To the “late” Clara Durland we would say “Beware of all creeping things in the back of your neck and all creatures with long legs and arms.” To Marion Borland the right to erect a wire netting in front of her seat to make him “stop,” in addition a course in proper perambulation. To Charles Coleman the maxim “ Look forward and not backward and the hope that he may fix a date with Warwick (which ?). To Reid Moser, the most delicate member of the class, two dozen packages of Beech-Nut chewing gum and a dozen automobles to amuse himself with. To Eva Galloway three bottles of “Nervine to enable her to play the piano in chapel. To Abram Clark one dozen pencils and a Physics answer book that he may not take up all Miss Mould’s time. To troublesome (?) Ray McCormack a photograph to comfort him when she goes west, also the privilege of sitting with the girls (tho he has taken advantage of it before). To Agnes Alton thirty-five meal tickets at Mrs. Dopp’s, also to be careful of that smile. To Leslie Ryerson, the chaplain of the class, we give the privilege of talking unceasingly, with the caution to be careful at first, for too sudden use of the jaw might prove fatal. To Elizabeth McGuire, alias Bessie, someone to keep her company when waiting for the train. To little Hen Coleman a can of horseradish to be used at Senior meeting, also the greatest success and best wishes from the class of 1912 for the athletic meet. To Russell Rutan the remainder of our goods and chatties to be used by him with the greatest discretion. We hope that the sudden care of this wealth and property will not endanger his life or overburden his mind. We have hereunto subscribed our name, and affixed our seal this thirteenth day of June, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and twelve. SENIOR CLASS OF 1912. In witness wherof: T. R.

18 THE PIONEER BHSKET-BHLL SPEHCER HORTOH MAma xr JOE LEWIS cat ta in ON September 21 st, 1911, a meeting was held for the purpose of electing officers for the ensuing year, and it resulted in the re-election of Joe Lewis, as Captain ; Spencer Horton, as Manager, and Ralph Earle, as Treasurer. At this time a call for candidates was also issued, and about eighteen answered the call. The first serious problem that confronted the team was, where they could secure a place to practice. Through the kindness of the Rev. Chas. Murphy, the goals from Garr Hall were borrowed and placed in the school yard, where practice was held every day, but not the kind of practice that a winning team should have, and it was with some difficulty that the Music Hall was rented. The season opened up on November I 7th by the team’s being accompanied to Florida by the largest crowd of “ rooters, lady friends and teachers that ever went out of town with the basketball team. The game opened up by Joe Lewis caging the ball for Goshen in the first few minutes of the game. Although Florida had the better team, the High School team managed to hold them down in the first half to a score of I 7 to II in favor of Florida. Florida became the victors by the score of 32 to 14. Dancing was enjoyed by all after the game until a late hour. On Thanksgiving night the team from Warwick High School met on our court and was greeted by the largest crowd that ever attended a basketball game in the history of the high school. About 1 10 couples enjoyed the excellent dance after the game. Warwick had the better of the local team all thru the game. The High School team did not secure a single field goal. The final score was 33 to 6 in favor of Warwick. The next game was played at Goshen on December 9th, when the Florida A. C. played a return game at the Music Hall. The first half was fast and exciting, the score at the half being 19 to 14 in favor of the visitors. The game ended by Florida winning to the score of 36 to 23. The next game was played on December 22nd, when the “ Five from the Monticello High School met on our court. The first half the score stood 19 to 11 in favor of Monticello. The game ended in a victory for the visitors by the score of 44 to 24. The last game of the season was played at Warwick on December 26th. When the game started off it looked as if it were Goshen’s game. The score at the end of the first half was 20 to 24 in favor of Warwick. In the last half of the game Warwick took the advantage of the lightness of our team and “literally” wiped the floor with our men, finishing 64-28. (Continued on page 20)
